After the rain, the sky cleared up, and word spread about holding a knife to find a bride. People in Qinghua Town were all curious and rushed to the inn, wanting to see the magical knife.
Pedestrians were in a hurry and the street was very lively. Because it was Murong Gong who personally vouched for it, people were even more enthusiastic. However, some people were puzzled, "It's just a broken knife, but some people can't hold it. It's really a joke."
There were fewer and fewer people leaving, and only women, children, old and young were left busy with small businesses on the street, greeting guests from afar. Among them was a sesame seed seller, wiping sweat and kneading dough.
It was very hard for her, but she was also happy because there were two guests standing next to her, both young men. She quickly took out two sesame seed cakes from the pot and handed them to them without hesitation.
"Eat first, I'll make something for you." The aunt was very enthusiastic.
The two of them were really hungry, so they ate the sesame seed cakes with their hands. The look of wolfing them down was surprising. The sesame seed pancakes in their hands were gone in an instant. One of them was not full, so he asked the aunt to get three of them.
"Yipeng, do you eat cakes like this?"
"Auntie's cakes are delicious. I'm really hungry and want to eat more."
The two were Gao Yipeng and Zhou Yaxuan. The battle in Dukou Town made them feel very wronged, especially Chen Ji's layout. They were very depressed. They originally planned to go home, but they were very angry when they thought about Tang Yunfeng, so they returned.
Arrive at Qinghua Town.
They were the benefactors of the town's demon slayers and were known to many people. They originally wanted to give them money, but the aunt was very kind to them. Not only did she not ask for money, but she also cared for them to be well fed, just like her own children, and she was full of joy.
The aunt is a warm-hearted person and immediately smiled and said: "You can come here anytime if you want to eat. I have been selling cakes here for ten years. Everyone who has eaten them says they are delicious. You are the benefactors of my town. As long as I am alive, I will give it to you for free forever."
.”
After Gao Yipeng had eaten full, he felt embarrassed to hear what his aunt said. After all, it is not easy to do business, especially in Gancheng. Monsters might suddenly appear, so he said: "Aunt, business is hard to do and money is hard to make. We can't eat in vain."
You take the money you should pay for your sesame cakes, and the rest is what we want, so there’s no need to look for it.”
Zhou Yaxuan took out his money bag, put a lot of money on Auntie's table, and said, "Auntie, you have to put it away."
"You said you were really just two sesame seed pancakes, how could you give so much? I'll give it to you right now."
Zhou Yaxuan stopped and said, "Auntie, we came back here just to have a rest. This cake is really delicious. Just use the extra money as a deposit for us, and there will be no charge next time."
The aunt had no choice but to compromise and said, "Then where are you going now?"
"Auntie, we are going home!" Gao Yipeng replied.
The aunt nodded, feeling happy for them. Heroes will always return home one day. No matter where they are, the care of relatives is far greater than the hospitality of strangers. People here have lost countless relatives in the past. Without them, there would be no today!
Zhou Yaxuan's heart is in chaos. Gancheng has made him grow a lot. Now Tang Yunfeng is getting stronger and stronger, and he is the leader of the East. He has to make a bigger choice, either to practice in Gancheng or return to the North.
Raise troops and wait for the opportunity to dominate the continent.
Zhou Yaxuan was thinking a lot. Then he thought of something and asked: "Auntie, I remember there were a lot of people in Qinghua Town. Why are there fewer people now?"
"Yes, aunt, there are indeed a lot less people. Where have they gone?" Gao Yipeng also asked.
The aunt didn't hide anything and said, "Everyone has gone to the restaurant."
"Restaurant?" Gao Yipeng was confused.
"It rained here the day before yesterday, so many people took shelter in that restaurant. The boss took advantage of the opportunity and asked the waiter to ask people to eat. If they didn't eat, they wouldn't let them take shelter from the rain. Everyone had to compromise and sit at the table."
"What does this have to do with the lack of people?" Zhou Yaxuan was confused.
"Although the boss is stingy, he is very loyal. When greeting people, he met an eldest sister named Niu Xue. She said she came here to find relatives. She had a very delicate knife in her hand. The eldest sister said that the person holding her knife is a relative. The boss
If you don’t believe me, you have to give it a try, and it turns out that the sword recognizes its owner as she said. The boss wanted to help her, so he held a sword-holding convention, supervised by the mayor himself, and most of the young people went there."
"I see, no wonder the streets are so deserted!" Gao Yipeng understood.
"The eldest sister is eighty-two years old and is in better health than I am, who is fifty years old. I'm really envious. Maybe I will be bedridden and suffering from illness at that age!" the aunt said thoughtfully.
.
"Auntie, since the mother-in-law is here to look for relatives, there must be a lot of people gathered in the restaurant. Although Yipeng and I are outsiders, we have also practiced swordsmanship. I am very interested in her sword. I hope Auntie can tell the restaurant.
Location."
"You go forward and turn left." The aunt pointed the way.
Gao Yipeng didn't say anything, but he was thinking in his heart. There were many weapons in the mainland, and this was the first time he heard of a weapon that recognized its owner. If the sword recognized its owner, who would its owner be? I am the most outstanding disciple of Tianxi Sect.
So can I hold it?
Zhou Yaxuan thanked his aunt and turned to leave. When he saw Gao Yipeng in a daze, he asked doubtfully: "Yipeng, what's wrong with you?"
"Yaxuan, I have an idea. If the sword recognizes its owner and ordinary people cannot hold it, then as members of the sect, will we hold it?"
"Yipeng, everything has spirituality. I really want to see its power. If that sword really belongs to its owner, I guess no one can hold it."
"What kind of knife is that that makes that lady risk thousands of miles to come here to find her bride?"
"Yipeng, I'll be watching when the time comes. Let's go there quickly!"
Gao Yipeng was full of passion. As long as he was interested in anything related to swords, his inner arrogance burned. "There is nothing in the mainland that I can't do. I want to see your power. I don't believe I can control you."
