Chapter 413: Jade Jane Again
Seeing the indifference of the shopkeeper, Zhang Xiaohua didn't take it to heart, and asked: "I remember that five years ago, there seemed to be a weapon shop selling swords here, but now why can't I find it?"
"Huh?" the fat shopkeeper was surprised, and said, "There was indeed an arms shop here five years ago, but you have been here?
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "But I can ask, where is the blacksmith now?"
The white fat shopkeeper sighed and said: "Don't hide it from the guest officer, my shop was the armory shop of the year, but unfortunately, this year is not as good as us killing pigs and selling vegetables, although the blacksmith's skills are good, but no one knows, the business of this armory shop has always been bleak, three years ago, he really couldn't do it, and he didn't want to do any farm tools, so he had to sell the store to me." β
"What happened later?" Zhang Xiaohua was just concerned about the blacksmith's whereabouts.
"Later?" the white fat shopkeeper was a little gloomy, and said: "The blacksmith is also a no-brainer, and he has long been tired from blacksmithing all day, and when he wants to go to a foreign land to make a living, he has no extra energy, so he has to stay here to survive, alas, the shop sells for a little money, and all of them drink and drink, and last year he was drunk and slept outside, and a heavy snow froze him to death." β
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and said, "Last year, wasn't it just a month ago?"
"Yes, what?" the shopkeeper asked, "Are you looking for him now?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly: "This guy's association is really rich." β
"No, I just want to ask him something." β
"What's the matter? Five years ago, do you come to him now to ask?" In an instant, the gossip heart of the white fat shopkeeper was hoisted high, and he said rarely: "Young man, what is the matter? I have been friends with the blacksmith for more than ten years, and I know many things about him, that is, he ...... with the widow in Zhenxi."
Speaking of this, he seemed to feel that he was leaking, so he quickly looked left and right, and said: "I know many things about him, especially privacy, if you are his son who is looking for relatives, I can give you a testimony, he still has an acre and three points of land outside the town, no one takes care of it, I can help you with this!"
"Wow~ Who are these people? Zhang Xiaohua sweated for a while, waved his hand again and again, and said: "It's nothing, shopkeeper, I don't know this blacksmith, but I'm just asking him some jishu questions, if he is not there, then forget it." β
"Don't. The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Xiaohua and said: "Young man, there's nothing to be shy about, just say what you have to say, why bother with any jishu problems?
Zhang Xiaohua didn't want to talk to this shopkeeper about the little sword, but seeing that this guy was too enthusiastic, if he didn't explain things clearly, he might still be pressed a "what" hat, so he was very helpless to take out the little sword from his arms and said: "It's nothing, it's that I bought a long ......sword from his arsenal from this town with my uncle five years ago."
Before he could finish speaking, the shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's been five years, and I don't care about returning the things sold by the blacksmith, besides, I don't know where to put his old swords, you still have to die of this heart." β
However, as soon as his words fell, his eyes saw Zhang Xiaohua's little sword, and he couldn't help but shout: "Huh?" stretched out his hand and said, "Can you let me take a look?"
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua handed over the little sword.
The shopkeeper looked left and right, smiled, and said: "You young man, you are not young, and you are still lying, you don't want to lie to me, but I know your sword, I sent it to his store to sell on consignment, the blacksmith told me that he bought one and gave one away, and he didn't charge any money at all, you want to return it now, change it to a long sword, and there is no door!!"
The shopkeeper said it righteously, and seemed to have caught Zhang Xiaohua's feet, and he was very proud.
Zhang Xiaohua heard this, that was the real joy, and hurriedly took the little sword and said with a smile: "This uncle has misunderstood, I haven't finished my words yet, where am I returning, I was just young, holding this little sword as a toy, I have been playing for several years, and I already like it very much, but I have a cousin in my family who has just grown up, and I actually like this little sword, I have to want it, and I don't want to cut my love, so I didn't pass through the town today, and I thought of the weapon shop to find one." β
"Since this little sword-style uncle's thing, is there anything else that is the same?"
"This?" When the shopkeeper heard this, he was a little embarrassed, Zhang Xiaohua saw this, and quickly took out a few copper coins from his arms, put them on the counter, and said with a smile: "It's just a child's toy, if you still have it, take it out, you can't ask for it in vain this time." β
When the shopkeeper saw the copper coin, he immediately smiled on his face, but there was still a hint of reluctance, and said: "The guest officer is disappointed, this thing is not produced by himself, but picked up from outside." β
Zhang Xiaohua smiled, pushed the copper coins over, and said, "It's okay, just tell me the news about Xiaojian." β
The shopkeeper's big white hand picked up the copper coin with great dexterity, and shouted: "Little San, come over to Lao Tzu." β
The fat white young man who was collecting pork in the distance responded and said quietly, "What's the matter? Daddy." β
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly handed over the little sword again, and the shopkeeper took it, put it in front of Xiao San and asked, "Look at this little sword, did you pick it up when you went up the mountain to play eight or nine years ago?"
The young man took it, looked at it carefully, struggled to recall, and said, "Daddy, it's been many years, who still remembers it clearly?"
The shopkeeper hated that iron was not steel, and scolded: "Why don't you remember? I clearly remember that you picked it up, so I sent it to this blacksmith and asked him to sell it on his behalf." β
The young man scratched his head and said, "Maybe." But Daddy, I really can't remember. β
"You!" Seeing that his son returned the little sword, the shopkeeper couldn't hold it on his face, returned the little sword to Zhang Xiaohua, and was about to speak, but Zhang Xiaohua asked first: "Little San, I want to ask you, where did you usually play when you were young?"
Xiao San scratched his head again and said, "The town is full of fun all around, and I've been to play almost all of them." β
Zhang Xiaohua was speechless, this guy is really not an ordinary naughty, but why has he changed so much now?
At this time, Xiao San's head scratching suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something, and said: "Alas, it seems that I remember, this little sword seems to have been found when I was a child when I was digging birds' eggs, and it also cut my hand at that time, and it shed a lot of blood!"
The shopkeeper laughed and scolded: "When you were a child, you were thirteen or fourteen years old, and you could jump up and down and climb trees." β
Zhang Xiaohua was a little nervous and said, "Then do you remember where you picked up the bird eggs?"
"Of course I remember, it was on the bald mountain in the south of the town, the big locust tree at the west corner, since that cut my hand, I never dared to climb that tree again. β
"That's right," Zhang Xiaohua listened, thoughtful.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "That's it, young man, where do you live? When it dawns tomorrow, let the junior take you over to have a look, maybe you can pick one up? The child is idle, you can just give some pocket money tomorrow." β
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand again and again and said: "No need, uncle, I'm just here to try my luck, if not, forget it, it's a big deal, I'll buy it for him elsewhere, I really don't dare to trouble you." β
After speaking, he thanked him and left the store.
The small sword is the weapon of the Immortal Dao, and there may be other immortal Dao things next to it, where will Zhang Xiaohua let others go to find it together? When he got out of the butcher shop, Zhang Xiaohua saw that it was still early, so he used his light skills to go south.
Waiting to the south of the town, Zhang Xiaohua still cautiously inquired with the locals before setting off again, while rushing forward, while releasing his divine sense to watch, not long after, the divine consciousness has found the bald mountain in the mouth of the little three, and the big locust tree is still alive.
However, to Zhang Xiaohua's disappointment, there was no fluctuation of vitality within his divine consciousness.
To go or not to go, Zhang Xiaohua was a little hesitant.
However, the feeling of entering Baoshan and returning empty-handed made him a little unwilling, and after a little thought, he still chose to go over.
This is a very ordinary bald mountain, there are no trees, only some snow, and the big locust tree next to it is also full of snow.
Coming to the big locust tree, Zhang Xiaohua sat cross-legged, completely let go of his consciousness, carefully searched around, looking for inch by inch, after about a meal, I saw Zhang Xiaohua's body suddenly moved, and he came to the bottom of the hillside on the other side of the bald mountain, where there was a small flowing river, and the river was gurgling.
Zhang Xiaohua did not hesitate, walked to an unusually dark place by the river, there are a lot of dead branches and thorns and other shrubs, Zhang Xiaohua released the flying sword, not long after, it cleared out a large gap, I saw him walk over, squatted down on the side of the riverbank, picked up the small sword is a mess of digging, not long after, dug out a bunch of messy things from the soil, Zhang Xiaohua is not dirty, took out a handkerchief from his arms, dug up the things in a brain, carefully put it into his arms, then he stood up contentedly, and ran to the brightly lit townγ
When they returned to the inn, Nie Qianyu and Xiao Juzi had already fallen asleep, and Zhang Xiaohua returned to her room, fetched water to wash the things in the handkerchief one by one, and then put them on the table to watch carefully.
These are a few pale white jade slips and a turquoise jade ring, but, except for one of them, there is still a faint fluctuation of vitality, the others are no different from ordinary jade, Zhang Xiaohua picked up the pale white jade slip with fluctuations, and infiltrated his divine sense, waiting for him to see the handwriting inside, he didn't feel happy!
