Chapter 18 No Sword, No Fear of Killing The two major factions fight for red sandalwood

Not to mention how the Xuanwu Ming dressed in a big coat left from the Mingshan Sword Gate and how to return to the Thousand Crane Palace at the top of Yushu Peak, but said that the professional killer Wuxing Dao, who could still sleep on the top of the eaves in tulle, was woken up by the sound of a carriage.

The sound of horses' hooves and wheels pressing on the stone pavement came from far and near, and when the knife heard the sound, he knew that it was a gray shed carriage, and the driver of the carriage was a man wearing a hat covering most of his face and calling him "Ma Tan".

The carriage stopped for a moment in front of the house where the knife was lying. The driver, with his hat, looked up at the roof, and then flicked the reins as the carriage continued on.

Wuxingdao got up in annoyance, he had just dreamed of that cold winter day again, and after being disrupted by the sound of the carriage, he shook his head helplessly, and floated in the same direction as the carriage with his light skills.

And so, when they came to a grove, the carriage stopped. The knife followed the carriage, stepped on the gravel road, and slowly walked over.

The driver of the car unloaded a brocade box from the car and moved it in front of him.

The knife glanced at the coachman coldly, then saluted the carriage and said, "Don't come to the master unharmed......

A female voice came from the carriage and said, "The mourning family now has a big deal that they want to hand over to you, I wonder if Wu Daxia is willing to take it?"

Wuxing Dao said: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested. ”

The woman said, "The price can be negotiated." ”

The coachman stepped forward and was about to open the lid of the brocade box.

With a swing of his hand, the coachman stopped, and he continued: "It's not a matter of money, I've been employed by someone else, and I've been doing a long-term deal. ”

The woman stretched out an uncovered Rosa arm from the window, which looked unusually pale in the moonlight. She wears an emerald gemstone wrench on her thumb that glows a faint green. The woman said: "I don't need Wu Daxia to do this business himself, the mourning family just begged Daxia to support the scene." ”

The Blade stared at the emerald gemstone, the green glow of the gemstone ring imbued with bewitching magic. Although this gemstone ring was already familiar to him, his eyes were still stained by this ghostly green light. Wuxing Dao closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he returned to his previous blackness, and he said: "You can send out a 'reward and kill order' to support a scene, this scene seems to be not small." However, the big master, it's not a joke!"

The woman sneered: "You can even ignore the 'reward and kill order', Wu Daxia, you have changed." Then he stopped talking.

Wuxing Dao said: "If the great master has no other send, please forgive me and leave." ”

The woman said, "Do you know that there are professional killers similar to you on the rivers and lakes now?"

Wuxing Dao said: "What do you have to do with me." Then he walked away without looking back.

After the coachman had gone away, he stood by the carriage and asked, "Master, I think this man may spoil our great affairs in the future." ”

The woman said, "Well, now he has other uses for us." Besides, we don't have that much strength to deal with him. When that person can completely replace him, the name of the professional killer will change hands. ”-

The top of Yushu Peak, Thousand Crane Palace, Sandalwood Hall. The Sandalwood Hall is a side hall in the Thousand Crane Palace, and it is also the place where the Thousand Crane real people put their collections. From cabinets, cabinets, screens, to teacups and paperweights, they are all made by skilled craftsmen using the thousand-year-old red sandalwood of Tianzhu and Nanyang, and there are nearly 10,000 pieces of red sandalwood in a rough calculation. One of the most eye-catching is a large red sandalwood carving on the wall that is ten zhang long and one zhang wide, "A Thousand Cranes Play Lotus Pond", which is carved by 500 craftsmen for a year.

In the hall, Qianhe Zhenren was standing next to the red sandalwood case, playing with the Venus red sandalwood beads in his hand, while listening to Xuanwu Ming's report on the trip to Mingshan Sword Gate. When Xuanwu Ming talked about exploring the Mingshan Sword Gate at night and meeting Qin Peng, the commander of the Sword Gate, Qianhe was truly humane: "Twenty years ago, when the old man was searching for Su Zuo Zi Sandalwood furniture in the south of the Yangtze River, he happened to meet the former head of the Mingshan Sword Gate, the head of the big sword Wang. Among the people who traveled with him at that time was Qin Peng. At that time, Qin Peng had not yet been taught the Qi Gathering Sword Technique, but as a rare disciple who had practiced the four major types of swordsmanship of 'light, heavy, fast and slow', Master Wang specially introduced him to me. At that time, Ah Yan also studied martial arts with him. ”

Xuanwu said: "There is still this matter, I don't know what the result is?"

"Speaking of the result...... Chizuru reached out and stroked the red sandalwood case in front of him, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes-

Twenty years ago, Suzhou, Gu's Manor. Suzhou Gu's hardwood furniture has a history of more than 100 years, and the red sandalwood, golden silk nan, pineapple, wenge wood furniture made has attracted many dignitaries because of its exquisite production, and the fame of Gu's manor is becoming more and more famous. The current owner Gu Li went to Nanyang to bring back a piece of red sandalwood, and the news spread immediately a lot of red sandalwood hawkers came to the door to ask for wood, and two of them had an imperative attitude towards this wood. One is the head of Mingshan Jianmen Wang, who made a deposit first, and the other is Qianhe Zhenren, who bid higher. In fact, the bids of the two exceeded Gu Li's psychological price, but as a businessman, Gu Li still preferred to sell the wood to the higher bidder Qianhe Zhenren. But the head of Mingshan Wang is not only Gu Li's old customer, but also the first person to place a deposit, Gu Li is a little hesitant. Another point is also very important, Gu Li himself is a martial arts person, so he naturally knows the influence of the Mingshan Sword Sect and the Thousand Crane Divine Sect, and he can't afford to offend either side, so he is in a dilemma.

Gu Li's wife gave him an idea, asking him to invite Qianhe Zhenren and Wang Zhangmen to the manor, and decide who would get this piece of red sandalwood in the end through negotiation. So Gu Li hurriedly prepared a table of first-class banquets, and then invited the two heads to the manor to sit down. When the wine passed three rounds, Gu Li ordered someone to carry out the red sandalwood material, only to see that the diameter of the large material was more than ten inches, the color was purple like lacquer, and the twisted lines were like hair, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. Gu Li said to the two heads: "Gu's Manor has been established for a hundred years, and it has been painstakingly managed to achieve today's scale. But for rosewood, it has only grown by an inch in more than 100 years. Therefore, this piece of red sandalwood is very rare. When Gu returned from Nanyang by boat, he was worried that this piece of wood would not be available to those who really appreciated it, but now it seems that this worry is unnecessary. The head and the real person are all masters in this, and whoever gets this wood is the blessing of this wood and the Gu manor. However, there is only one piece of red sandalwood here, and who deserves it, Gu really doesn't know. ”

Wang Zhangmen smiled first: "I heard that the real person once bought rosewood materials in bundles and transported them back to Yushu Peak, and it is said that when they were busiest, there were horse teams sending rosewood materials every day for a month. ”

Qianhe Zhenren also smiled and said, "Isn't Master Wang also a collection of red sandalwood boutiques from the previous dynasty!"

Master Wang smiled: "How dare Wang's collection be compared with real people." But if the two of us make a lot of money for a piece of wood, we will be laughed at by everyone. ”

Qianhe Zhenren said with a smile: "What Master Wang said is very true, if the two of us blow their beards and stare at this piece of wood, and don't say anything far, then the owner of the village will have to laugh at us." ”

Gu Li hurriedly smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, the two heads of the two heads of the family are very admirable for their dedication to red sandalwood." ”

Everyone laughed, picked up the wine glasses and drank them all. After putting down the cup, Wang Zhangmen said to several disciples around him: "The Thousand Crane Divine Skill Elephant is invisible, it is the most wonderful martial arts method in the world, I don't know if you have the blessing to see this kind of magical skill." ”

Qianhe Zhenren smiled at the people of Mingshan and said: "Master Wang, it's not that you haven't seen the martial arts of our sect, it is miscellaneous and shallow, compared to the sword faction, the Mingshan Sword Gate, which has been specializing in swordsmanship for hundreds of years, is really not worth mentioning." ”

An idea suddenly popped up in Gu Li's mind, and said: "Today, we are fortunate to welcome two grandmasters, and Gu has a reluctant request, that is, I want to see the Thousand Cranes Divine Skill and the Mingshan Sword Technique. There is also a proposal below, since the two grandmasters are interested in collecting this piece of red sandalwood, it is better to let the disciples of the two factions learn one or two, on the one hand, to decide the ownership of the wood, and on the other hand, it will also open the eyes of the Gu manor. ”

I don't know how the disciples of the two factions are talking to each other, and I will listen to the next breakdown.
