CHAPTER XIX

With a flick of his fingers, the 'buzz' sound of the blade began, and the sound in his ears was faint. On the third floor of "Baibao Zhai" in Baishui City, Qianhu Country, the two sat cross-legged and talked before the long case, and a wisp of purple smoke came out of the beast's mouth in the beast-shaped incense burner in the corner of the case, straight up, and there was no trace behind the beam. After the faint fragrance enters the nose, it only runs through the top of the brain, which makes people feel more energetic and have a good idea. The shopkeeper, who had a white beard, took the scimitar on Nie Xiaoyuan's hands, and after observing it carefully, he flicked his fingers.

Nie Xiaoyuan was apprehensive, and when he saw the shopkeeper closing his eyes and pondering, he waited with bated breath. After a long time, the shopkeeper opened his eyes and put the blade under his nose and sniffed it gently, and handed it back with both hands after the long sleeves were lightly wiped.

After taking a sip of tea, the shopkeeper stroked his white beard under his chin and said: "This Taoist friend, can you tell me the origin of this knife?" Of course, if there is any inconvenience, it will be treated as if the old man did not mention it.

Nie Xiaoyuan groaned slightly, and then recounted the process of obtaining this knife, only replacing the ghost nocturnal with a demon cultivator who wanted to rob.

After listening to the narration, the shopkeeper pointed to the tea cup in front of Nie Xiaoyuan and smiled slightly: Why don't you taste this tea, can you think that the spiritual tea in my store is not on the table?

Hearing the shopkeeper's ridicule, Nie Xiaoyuan's somewhat stiff body suddenly relaxed, and his nervous mood calmed down. Resting the knife on his lap, he raised the teacup with both hands and lightly raised it above the top to signal to the elder, then gently opened the lid of the cup, took a sip, and suddenly felt that Zhu Yu was full of mouth, the nose and tongue were fragrant, and a warm current flowed down the throat, sinking to the dantian and turning into wisps of vitality. Open your eyes and say: It is the best tea. But doubts arose in my heart.

When the shopkeeper saw the doubt in Nie Xiaoyuan's eyes, he only said, Daoist friends are just lucky, and it doesn't hurt to spend a few old ones. continued: Daoyou This knife is a unique arc moon knife style in the Moon Soul Country from the appearance point of view, the main ingredient is the Xuanyin Dark Iron Shop and the Black Yao Silver Crystal, there are also a few things that do not know its name and unknown attributes, and the quenching is made of the immortal grass juice Ping Yin and Yang, Ji is rigid and soft, the idea is novel, and it does not go the ordinary way. This knife is embedded with the 'Thousand Eyes Soul Devouring Array', which can ingest the spirits of geists and the souls of those injured by this knife.

No wonder after being injured by this knife, he felt that his soul was a little abnormal, and he only recovered until now, it was really a good knife for Yin people, Nie Xiaoyuan said secretly in his heart.

Continue to listen to the shopkeeper say: As far as the old man has learned the magic weapons over the years, I am afraid that there are more than 10,000 of them, and I have seen a lot of spiritual weapons. Everything in the world is nothing more than yin and yang, up and down, left and right, inside and outside, there should be in, there should be out, as far as Daoyou this arc moon knife, it should still lack a formation to release the soul to be reasonable, but forgive the old man's eyes, in this knife can not see in addition to the 'Thousand Eyes Soul Devouring Array' There are other formations embedded, one is that this array has been erased or disappeared by itself for some reason, and the other is that this knife is embedded with a dark array, if you don't know the method, no one can open it.

For this knife, the material is medium and upper, and the embedded formation is very powerful, and it has a successful effect on dealing with those Yin Soul monsters, but it is a pity that a formation is missing, and it cannot exert all the power of this knife, so it can only fall from the best magic weapon to the top grade magic weapon. After a pause, he looked at Nie Xiaoyuan, who was listening with his ears up, and said: Do you think of Daoyou?

Nie Xiaoyuan's mood at the moment was affected by the shopkeeper's sentence "falling from the best to the highest grade", this sentence was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, which made Nie Xiaoyuan's whole body cold and heartache, how many spirit stones would have to be lost.

Seeing that Nie Xiaoyuan didn't reply, the shopkeeper reluctantly raised his voice and said: Do you think of it?

Ahh

Just about to answer, only to hear the sound of commotion on the street outside the building accompanied by a few women's screams, the soldiers marched in formation, and a man preached loudly: Because there are blood-sucking demons in the city recently, there are now orders from the Baishui City government, from now on, the whole city of Baishui City is closed and strictly forbidden, I hope that all the villagers and elders will return home as soon as possible, and they will not stay outside, if there is a violation of the order, it will be regarded as a demon arrest. If there is a person who provides clues to the demons, the government will reward 100 taels of gold, and if there is a person who lies to receive the reward, once it is discovered, it will be regarded as an accomplice to the demons.

In addition, the government of Baishui City issued an edict, imploring all the immortals who stayed in Baishui City, reciting the suffering of the people, exerting their magical powers, helping our army and people to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and help the immortals to do justice. When the matter was accomplished, hundreds of thousands of people in the city of this palace will engrave the Taoist names of the meritorious immortals, set up monuments and pass them on from generation to generation, and will never break their promises! Such proclamations have come and gone, far and near, and they are already all over the city.

At this time, how could there be demons in the big white sky? Nie Xiaoyuan hadn't figured it out yet. I heard the shopkeeper sigh: In the past, the suffix "never break the word" was used, even the words spoken by ordinary people were loud, and it was like a gap in people's hearts now, and the demons and monsters couldn't bear it, and they dared to come out to make trouble. Thinking of the many weirdness on the road, Nie Xiaoyuan was silent.

At this time, someone went upstairs, stopped in front of the door, and knocked on the door three times. The shopkeeper said: What is the matter? The outsider replied respectfully: Deacon Yu, under the seat of the Sword Immortal Sect, Elder Wei and General Xia, the overseer of Baishui City, paid a visit.

Please!

Seeing this, Nie Xiaoyuan had the heart to say goodbye, and just as he was about to get up to speak, Shopkeeper Yu waved his hand and said: Okay, the city is now strictly prohibited, and you can't leave, your tea was originally prepared for Elder Wei, and you came just in time, so you have a good mouth. Since you are a person in the Daomen, how much strength you have, it is good to listen to them together and have different ideas.

I had to sit still again and wait for someone to come.

Elder Wei is not old at all, he is in the prime of life, with long sleeves and stubble, his face is full of long swords, his expression is upright, not like a monk but like a knight who fights unevenly in the ordinary, and the other person is tied with a scarf on his head, with sword eyebrows, just past and standing young and handsome, wearing armor and a sword, his face is slightly pale, this young man is Xia Yu, who is currently the overseer of Baishui City.

As soon as Elder Wei entered the door, he was slightly surprised when he saw that his old friend was meeting guests, and he couldn't help but simply introduce each other, and after completing the etiquette, he stepped forward and hurriedly pulled the arm of the shopkeeper Yu before he was seated and said urgently: Old Yu, you have to help me this time?

Is it so serious??

This time it was Xia Yu who answered. Shopkeeper Yu took out two brocade mats from under the desk and motioned for the two to sit down and talk. Xia Yu thanked him, Elder Wei scratched his head, sighed, and had to sit down.

As soon as Elder Wei sat down, his nose twitched, and he shouted: "Old Yu serves tea, serves good tea!" Shopkeeper Yu has been friends with him for many years, and he knows his temper and is not angry. Pick up the copper bell on the table and shake it three times, and then there will be a junior to bring the tea.

Xia Yu continued: Teach Yu Xianchang to learn that it has been more than a month since the first case, and there have been five cases in January, and this demon has come out to hurt people's lives after five days, ranging from one person to several people each time, the previous four times were all night, but today is daytime, and there is a family of four people in Mojia Lane in the southern corner of the city who have all been sucked up and died, and there is no difference before.

After listening to the case, Shopkeeper Yu held the case with both hands, his eyes slightly closed and his fingers tapped the case rhythmically, and the remaining three people waited quietly, and they didn't dare to come out, for fear of disturbing Shopkeeper Yu's train of thought.

After a long time, Shopkeeper Yu opened his eyes and asked, "What time is today?" Elder Wei didn't want to answer: "On the seventh day of the third month, what's wrong?"

Nie Xiaoyuan replied. This is the answer that Shopkeeper Yu wants. Shopkeeper Yu stood up and said, "Let's go!" See what you can find?

Going down the stairs, the junior under the door was going upstairs with a tea tray, and Elder Wei shouted softly: "My tea! Xia Yu lowered his head and thought about things, he was in the mood to drink tea. Waiting for Elder Wei to finish drinking, he turned sideways to let the tea servant. Coming downstairs, Elder Wei patted Xia Yu on the shoulder and said, "Boy, you didn't drink that tea, you suffered a loss!
