Chapter 385: Sword

The road back to Beijing is a bit difficult because it is snowing.
Xie Linlang is not afraid of the cold. Even if it is snowing, he wears clothes that others would wear only in autumn. Then he holds a cup of hot tea in his hand, sits in the carriage, and looks at the snow from time to time, reading a book from time to time. The days are very pleasant.
At this time, An Wei Xunfeng who drove the car said.
"Master Xie, looking at the road conditions, it is estimated that you will be able to reach Liuling the day after tomorrow."
Liuling is adjacent to Jiangnan. If you reach Jiangnan, the capital will be fast.
Xie Linlang nodded, "Don't worry, I will rest for two days in Liuling."
I heard that Liu Ling's weapons are very good, especially good at making swords. At that time, she can pick a pair of swords and share one with Qin Jue. Although Qin Jue does not lack these things, how can someone give it to him? Master Xie thought proudly.
Soon, when the car arrived in Liuling, Xie Linlang asked the dark guard Ye Bai who was good at disguise to darken her simple complexion, and took him out of the inn to go shopping.
Because not long after the Lantern Festival, the city is still lively, vendors on both sides hawking goods, and crowds on the road.
Xie Linlang led Ye Bai to find out about the most famous sword-making master in the city, and went to his shop.
This Master Li's shop is not in the downtown area, but at the end of the auxiliary street. It looks large, but deserted, without a single customer.
But as long as you walk in and take a look, you can feel the aura of a century-old store.
The first thing Xie Linlang saw after entering the door was a big tree!
Swords of different appearances are hung densely on the big tree, but these swords are all useless and defective.
Being able to discard so many swords without going back to the furnace to remake, it seems that Master Li is very rich... you know that metals are also very expensive.
Xie Linlang touched her pocket, wondering if she had enough money.
According to the recommendation of her subordinates, Xie Linlang finally met Master Li, who just came out of the workshop. Unlike the old man she imagined, Master Li looked like an ordinary middle-aged person, but his arms were very thick and his fists were very thick. It is estimated to be able to fight the tigers.
After knowing Xie Linlang's coming, Master Li wiped his hands, asked the apprentice to watch the fire, and brought her to the basement chamber by himself.
There are dozens of swords hanging here. These swords are all finished products accumulated by their family and have not been sold. The asking price for each one is very high.
Two of them were made by his grandfather, because the asking price was too high and they were never sold. They were hung right above the secret room.
Xie Linlang looked at the two swords and was very satisfied. They perfectly interpret what is called a hundred-forged steel. Not only that, they also have patterns left by repeated exercises, which look beautiful and practical.
Xie Linlang originally wanted these two, but according to the routine, she still asked more.
"Are these two of your best swords? Is there no better one?"
As soon as she said this, she thought the other party would say no, but Master Li pondered for a moment and hesitated to say it.
"There should be no better swords than them, but there is a sword left by Grandpa Taizu. That sword is only semi-finished and has no blade. Moreover, Grandpa Taizu also left a last word, saying that the sword is not for sale. Only for those who are destined."
Xie Linlang was excited when she heard it, it was an adventure!
So she said quickly, "Please take me to see."
Master Li hesitated for a moment, took out the key hanging from her neck, and took her to the next level.
In the cold underground, there were two swords hanging there quietly.
One of them is an Excalibur! Although it is metal, in the light of the oil lamp, it presents a mysterious silver blue. I don't know how long it has existed, but there is no trace of rust.
The other one is somewhat ordinary, black and black, the whole body is the same color, and there is no sharpness, just like a piece of scrap iron.
Xie Linlang was a little strange, "Didn't it mean there is only one sword, why are there two here?"
Master Li looked at them and said in a respectful tone.
"The silver-blue sword is the pinnacle of Taizu's grandfather, but this sword has a fatal flaw. It must be placed with the Heavenly Fallen Sword so that it will not rust, otherwise it will be clothed in ten and a half months. Full of red rust.
But the interesting thing is that as long as you put it together with the Heavenly Meteorite Sword, the rusty place will slowly recover, so our ancestors have kept it by the Heavenly Meteorite Sword. That black iron sword is Tian Meteorite. sword.
It is made of flying rocks outside the sky, and the raw materials are unique.
After the grandfather Taizu left his last words, he forged the sword in seclusion, but during the forging process, no matter what he did, he couldn't make the sword sharp.
He was crazy, and finally jumped into the furnace to forge the sword with his body, but unfortunately, the blade of this sword is still unopened. After so many years, I am afraid it has become more blunt. "
Xie Linlang was originally satisfied with this sword. This kind of magical sword was designed for her at first glance. It doesn't matter if it looks ugly, but the most important thing is to force it.
But when I heard that the people who made it died for it, Xie Linlang respected it.
Although she has killed countless people, it doesn't mean that she likes to kill. This sword killed the swordsmith before it was even sharpened. It didn't match her gentle appearance. She still liked the handle next to her, which had a high appearance and was held in hand. It must be more prestigious!
As for the rust after leaving the Heavenly Meteorite Sword, she believes that it can be resolved. She is a person who believes in science and firmly believes that this is just a chemical reaction, and that red rust is not necessarily true rust.
So she said, "Since this Heavenly Fallen Sword is so important to your Taizu Grandpa, it's better to stay in your town house. As for this one next to it, my son likes it very much. I don't know how much it costs?"
As she said, she walked two steps closer to see the pattern on the sword. Seeing the sword closer up was more beautiful, Xie Linlang suddenly felt that Qin Jue must be more handsome wearing it!
Who knows that the boss shook his head firmly.
"The two swords have been with each other for many years, how can they be separated? When the Heavenly Fallen Sword finds its destined person, then that person will be qualified to buy this sword, give it a name, and take them away together."
Upon hearing this, Xie Linlang couldn't help but glanced at the black sword next to him, thinking that the ancients were superstitious and believed that a sword could find its own master.
She walked over and asked curiously while looking at it.
"Then how can it be counted as a destined person?" It can't speak or fly. If it is shut down here, can it still be a dream?
Sure enough, Master Li couldn't tell why.
Xie Linlang looked down and found that the sword did not have an edge. She couldn't help but touch it, and said smoothly.
"If you don't sell it, don't sell it. A gentleman is not too difficult for others. I don't know how much the two swords are out there." Although she can't buy the best, she can buy the most expensive!
She just came out of Xiangcheng and brought 80,000 taels of silver bills with her, so she was not afraid of the other party's offer.
