Zhou Shu is not such a mean person, but this time, he is deliberately irritating Shen Yue.
From the last time he saw Shen Yue in the Forge Division's workshop to this meeting, Zhou Shu always felt that Shen Yue was deeply hostile to him.
This hostility cannot be explained simply because the two are in different camps.
Even if everyone comes from an enemy country, they won’t be hostile to everyone in the other country, right?
If Shen Yue is such an angry young man, don’t you think he has the same hostility towards others?
If he was so hostile to himself because he lost to him in the competition, then when they first met, Shen Yue was already hostile before they started competing.
Zhou Shu believed that he would not feel wrong. Shen Yue's hostility was like wanting to get rid of him and then be happy.
Zhou Shu didn't know where his hostility came from, but he would not leave a hostile person alone.
For Zhou Shu, he has a principle, that is, strike first to gain advantage, strike later and suffer disaster!
The other party has murderous intentions towards him, but you are still nice and angry with him?
Isn’t that a disease?
Shen Yue's face turned blue and purple, and his anger almost destroyed his reason. But after a moment, he took a deep breath and calmed down.
"I said that for a mere ten thousand taels of gold, I will not default on my debt."
Shen Yue said in a calm and calm tone, "It's just because I came to Daxia and I didn't bring much money with me, so I need some time to raise it."
"It won't take more than two days at the latest, and I will have someone send the money to you. You don't need to judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes and felt a little wary.
If Shen Yue got furious on the spot and even attacked him, he wouldn't be so vigilant.
But he said it so harshly, and it was a bit scary that he could calm down so quickly, in such a city.
"You said two days are just two days? Why should I believe you?"
Zhou Shu said, "Either give me the money now, or write me an IOU now! I can't trust you!"
Shen Yue's chest rose and fell violently, and several breaths passed before he said coldly, "Okay, I'll write you an IOU!"
"Wait!"
A voice suddenly came from the inn.
Zhou Shu's pupils shrank slightly. He heard that the voice was Xiao Shunzhi, the great master of the Wei Dynasty!
Is the old guy going to take action?
If he wants to take action, Yin Wuyou may not be able to bear it. Should he take action himself?
While Zhou Shu was hesitating, a bright light shot out from the inn.
He subconsciously wanted to take action, but before he could do so, Yin Wuyou had already dodged and stood in front of him.
The momentum exploded, Yin Wuyou's clothes fluttered, and a faint white light lit up her whole body, as if a fairy had come to earth. A three-foot long sword appeared in her hand at some time, lying in front of her, with sword energy.
Soaring to the sky.
Zhou Shu's heart moved slightly. Yin Wuyou's performance gave him a warm feeling in his heart.
He has fought against the Great Wei State Master Xiao Shunzhi and also against Yin Wuyou. He knows very well that Yin Wuyou's cultivation level is still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from the Great Wei State Master Xiao Shunzhi. It can be said that there is a world of difference.
That's too much.
If Xiao Shunzhi wants to kill Yin Wuyou, he will not take more than ten moves!
Yin Wuyou should be aware of this gap herself, but knowing it, she still stood in front of him without hesitation——
Zhou Shu was somewhat touched.
Just when he was about to take action desperately, Xiao Shunzhi's voice suddenly sounded again.
"Your Highness, don't be nervous. I have no ill intentions."
There was a crisp sound, and the light that shot out from the inn did not attack Yin Wuyou and Zhou Shu, but suddenly folded and nailed to the ground about a foot away.
The light disappeared, revealing a long knife. The tip of the knife penetrated the ground three inches, and the blade was still trembling slightly.
"I'm willing to admit defeat. Since my student lost, I will pay the bet for him."
Xiao Shun's person didn't show his face, but his voice seemed to be ringing in everyone's ears.
"Your Highness, let's see if this sword is worth ten thousand taels of gold?"
Yin Wuyou's aura had not completely subsided, and she looked at the knife with a solemn expression.
The blade trembled slightly, and the light on the blade was flowing, as if there was intelligence.
"Tianpin?"
Yin Wuyou exclaimed.
Zhou Shu looked over Yin Wuyou's shoulder, and when he saw the knife, his face darkened.
Isn't this one of the three knives I left behind that day?
Damn Xiao Shunzhi, are you going to pay for the money you lost by robbing me?
He is about to explode!
Shen Yue's face was gloomy. Although he didn't know why his teacher would do this, now was definitely not the time to ask.
"The market price of a Tianpin long knife will not be less than ten thousand taels of gold."
Shen Yue said coldly, "It's more than enough to pay for the bet between you and me!"
Zhou Shu looked at Yin Wuyou, he didn't know much about the prices of Tianpin weapons.
Yin Wuyou nodded and said in a deep voice, "A heaven-grade weapon can indeed be sold for ten thousand taels of gold in the market."
Yin Wuyou never expected that the Wei envoy would be so generous!
A heaven-grade weapon can be sold for ten thousand taels of gold, but that doesn’t mean that you can definitely buy a heaven-grade weapon with ten thousand taels of gold!
Heavenly-grade weapons have a price but no market, and even those with money may not be able to buy them.
Zhou Shu cursed in his heart, but he couldn't say now that this knife was originally his.
I came here to collect debts, but I ended up being dumb!
This made Zhou Shu feel extremely aggrieved. He had never suffered such a big loss since his debut!
Even when he left three heavenly swords to stop Xiao Shunzhi last time, Zhou Shu had never been so angry.
After all, it was a normal fight. There is nothing to say if you are not as good as others and suffer a slight loss.
But this time, it was clear that he was the victor, so why did he have to suffer such a dumb loss in the end?
"Promise him!"
Yin Wuyou whispered, "The value of a heaven-grade weapon is still more than ten thousand taels of gold. If you want money, you can just sell it to me!"
Zhou Shu had a stern look on his face, Yin Wuyou had just been risking his own life to protect him, he had to give her this face.
Moreover, it seems that I can’t refuse.
The other party paid the bet with a heavenly weapon. In the eyes of outsiders, Zhou Shu took a big advantage.
If he refuses, that would be abnormal.
"Very good, Xiao, I remember you, just wait and see!"
Zhou Shu glanced in the direction of the inn, this matter is not over yet!
"I want this knife, and the bet is cancelled!"
Zhou Shu said coldly.
He took a few steps forward, pulled out the long sword from the ground, and put it on his shoulder nonchalantly.
"Da Sikong, let's go. Some people have made this place so smoky that I can't even breathe easily."
Zhou Shu said, and Yin Wuyou walked towards the capital one after another.
Looking at their backs, Shen Yue's face instantly became extremely gloomy.
Humph, Zhou’s surname will make you proud for a few more days!
Neither Shen Yue nor Yin Wuyou noticed that a flash of lightning suddenly disappeared in the sky.
Zhou Shu raised his head and glanced, then withdrew his gaze.
After a while, Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou had disappeared, and suddenly a figure suddenly appeared in mid-air.
It was a handsome middle-aged man. He touched his chin and said to himself, "Why do you feel that that kid just saw me? Illusion, it must be an illusion. How can a guy who is not good at martial arts see it?"
Got me? My eldest niece didn’t even notice!"
"Old Ghost Xiao is a very clever old man. He knows that I won't let him take that Tianpin long knife away from Daxia, so he actually chooses to throw it out at this time! He won't lose money!"
After muttering for a while, he turned into a bolt of lightning and disappeared.
Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou returned to the capital, and Zhou Shu threw the heavenly long sword to Yin Wuyou.
"Da Sikong, I'm selling you."
Zhou Shu said casually.
He wants this Tianpin long sword and it's useless, so he might as well sell it to Yin Wuyou, which is legal income.
"Really sell it to me?"
Yin Wuyou said with some surprise that heavenly weapons are priceless but not marketable. Even the royal family does not have many collections of heavenly weapons.
As a princess, she is also a martial arts genius and a third-grade martial arts master at a young age. But now she does not have a heaven-grade weapon. What she uses is an earth-grade weapon.
This heavenly long sword was won by Zhou Shu through his own ability, so it was natural for him to keep it in his hands.
Yin Wuyou never thought of buying it from him forcibly, even if a Tianpin long sword was of great significance to Daxia, it would still be the same.
"Of course it's true."
Zhou Shu said, "What do I need it for? Princess, do you think I can use a heavenly weapon?"
On the surface, he is just a weapon-making apprentice who has just come into contact with martial arts. How can he control a heavenly weapon?
"When I can use heaven-grade weapons, it won't be a long time yet. At that time, I might be able to forge heaven-grade weapons myself."
Zhou Shu continued.
Yin Wuyou nodded. She was full of confidence in Zhou Shu. Zhou Shu would definitely become a master craftsman in the future!
"Okay, I want this knife. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer."
Yin Wuyou said.
She will not buy this heavenly long sword herself, but will give it to her father.
She has already thought about how to make a price with her father!
Just stop taking it away without giving money.
Zhou Shu complained in his heart, but thinking about it, it seems that he can't be blamed for what happened before. He is the great Sikong of the Forging Department, so if he takes away one or two standard weapons, is it still a big deal?
Seeing that you wanted to protect me despite the danger before, I forgive you, even though I don’t need your protection.
Zhou Shu added a drama to himself. Originally, he had never taken his complaints seriously.
Yin Wuyou acted vigorously and without saying a word, he entered the palace again with a knife.
When Emperor Yuan Feng saw Yin Wuyou walking into the imperial study with a knife in his hand, his heart skipped a beat, right?
Before he could speak, Yin Wuyou had already shouted in an almost coquettish tone.
"Father——"
"Stop it!"
Emperor Yuan Feng rubbed his eyebrows, where did his considerate and sensible little cotton-padded jacket go?
"Tell me, isn't it Zhou Shu who developed some new weapons?"
He felt that his heart was a little uncomfortable. This kid developed a new weapon every now and then. Although it was a good thing, but it happened so often that he didn't know how to reward him.
This is just a standard weapon. If one day he becomes a weapon maker and still does this, wouldn't he have to make himself unrewarded?
"No, it is not that easy to develop weapons. As the sages have said, it requires 90% of the sweat and an ounce of inspiration. Without inspiration, it cannot be developed."
Yin Wuyou said.
"Ninety-nine percent of sweat and one percent of inspiration? Which sage said that?"
Emperor Feng of Yuan Dynasty said doubtfully.
"No, father, did you listen to what I said?"
How does Yin Wuyou know which sage?
"You haven't said anything yet, how can I listen?"
Emperor Yuan Feng said angrily that his daughter, who had always been calm and collected in the past, seemed to like to act coquettishly recently, but this felt good, at least it made him feel more important in his daughter's heart.
A little girl, shouldn’t she act coquettishly towards her father?
"Father, look at this."
Yin Wuyou also reacted, and she quickly handed over the Tianpin long knife in her hand.
"This is?"
Emperor Yuan Feng took it and his expression immediately changed.
"Tianpin!"
"Where did you get it? Could it be that someone in the Forging Department was promoted to master craftsman?"
Emperor Yuan Feng showed a look of ecstasy on his face.
With Zhu Chuanfeng's death, Daxia lost one of its master craftsmen, and he also knew that Daxia had lost countless master craftsmen because of Zhu Chuanfeng.
If a new master craftsman of weapons can appear in Daxia at this time, his distressed feeling will be greatly alleviated.
"No!" Yin Wuyou shook his head and said, "This knife was won by Zhou Shu!"
"Zhou Shu?"
Emperor Yuan Feng had a big headache. Does it really have anything to do with him?
Can't this kid just calm down?
He has just been made a baron, is it possible that he can be promoted every few days?
"Didn't Shen Yue go to the Forge Division's workshop to discuss with him before? At that time, they followed the example of Da Xia and Da Wei and also made a bet with ten thousand taels of gold as the bet."
Yin Wuyou explained, "As you know, father, Zhou Shu forged the Great Xia Dragon Bird Sword, which convinced Shen Yue to lose."
"Today we went to Shen Yue to ask for a debt. Shen Yue didn't bring that much money, so Xiao Shunzhi used this Tianpin long knife to pay off the debt."
"Then, Zhou Shu sold me this knife!"
Yin Wuyou looked at Emperor Yuan Feng with a proud expression on his face, "Come on, praise me."
Emperor Yuan Feng breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be for sale, which was fine.
If he really dedicates himself to the imperial court, I really don’t know how to reward him.
Since it is for sale, just pay it.
If money can solve the problem, it is not a problem.
Emperor Yuan Feng waved his hand grandly, "Well done! I've got these ten thousand taels of gold!"
"Who said this knife only sells for ten thousand taels of gold?"
Yin Wuyou was surprised.
"Didn't Shen Yue use this knife to pay off his debt of ten thousand taels of gold?"
Yuan Feng Di Dao.
"That's to pay off a debt, how can it be the same? If you get a heaven-grade long sword in the world, you don't have fifteen thousand taels of gold, don't even think about it!"
Yin Wuyou said righteously, "If it is auctioned, the price may double again!"
"Father, Zhou Shu sold this knife to us just for the sake of his daughter. We can't be so stingy."
Yin Wuyou advised, "If they don't sell it, we can't snatch it away. This is what they won back by their own ability, and it is their private property."
"I think we can't let people suffer and be heartbroken——"
