At the banquet, Nangong Wenjian listened to the introductions of Li Youcai and Nangong Ruoxue.
He stood up immediately and picked up the wine glass in his hand.
She thanked Nan Yanxi and said, "Thank you so much, little brother! Come on, I'll give you a toast!"
"Lord Nangong, I'm sorry, this is what I should do!"
Nan Yanxi hurriedly returned the gift, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp!
I couldn't help complaining in my heart: "The wine in this world is really boring!"
After a few glasses of wine, I thought back to what happened last night.
Nan Yanxi couldn't help but ask: "Master Nangong, who was the person last night? Is he an enemy?"
Nangong Wenjian sighed with a wry smile and said, "Hi, I have been traveling around the world since I was fifteen years old, and it has been nearly forty years now!"
"How can there be no enemy? But I can't remember who exactly it is!"
"But...if the enemy is seeking revenge, what they want is life, but this group of people want to capture Xue'er alive."
"I think I'm afraid they might have other plans!"
Just as he was talking, the county magistrate Li Youcai next to him took a cloth bag and
Pass it over with both hands.
He said respectfully: "Old sect leader, please look at this thing. It is the weapon left by the man in black!"
"It's just that I have never seen the style of this knife. You are well-informed, let's see if you can discover anything!"
Nangong Wenjian took the baggage and opened it.
Inside is the strange short knife dropped by the leader of the men in black.
This short sword is less than two feet long, and the blade is wide at the front and narrow at the back.
The blade is recurved and the head is bent downward, which looks very scary!
Nangong Wenjian picked it up and looked at it carefully, then held it in his hand and made several gestures.
Somewhat strangely, he said: "This knife is of the Nanhai style! Very few people in Daxia use it!"
"When I was young, I traveled to the South China Sea and saw many local people using this kind of knife. It was very suitable for use in dense jungles."
"The blade is recurved, which is helpful for slashing in small spaces, and it can also cut off vines blocking the road while traveling!"
"It's just that I don't have any enemies in the Nanhai Kingdom? And I don't have much contact with them!"
"That trip was already twenty or thirty years ago!"
At this time, the captain of the garrison suddenly spoke!
Chao Nangong Wenjian cupped his hands and said: "Sir, Sect Master, speaking of Nanhai Kingdom, I do have some gossip here!"
"Oh? Tell me!"
Everyone immediately became interested. Speaking of being well-informed, it had to be the garrison camp that stood guard at the city gate every day!
Na Du cleared his throat and said, "I checked the merchants coming from Nanhai Country a few days ago."
"A few shopkeepers who are familiar with me told me that the Nanhai Kingdom seems to be uneasy recently!"
"I heard that the old monarch is seriously ill and cannot go to court. All matters are taken care of by the second prince."
"Everyone knows that that guy is famous for being a jerk!"
"Could these men in black be official members of the Nanhai Kingdom?"
After saying this, Nangong Wenjian stroked his beard and pondered: "How could such a thing happen? Could it be that the Nanhai Kingdom has some plans for our Qinglian Sword Sect?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock, but Nan Yanxi's face was condensed.
Fishy smell, foreign accent, not bad money, official from Nanhai country.
Could it be...
Li Youcai's rank is too low, Nangong Wenjian is not a court official!
Of course there is no news about this.
If the garrison camp were not responsible for inspecting foreign merchants, we would occasionally get some gossip.
Everyone really doesn’t know this!
If anyone knows about this kind of thing best, it is Lu Changfeng, the governor of Yuzhou.
After all, he is the chief official of the southern portal of Daxia!
Any disturbance in the Nanhai Kingdom in the south will naturally not escape his eyes!
Nangong Wenjian pondered for a moment, thinking to himself, "It seems like I have to go to my sworn brother's house."
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone is already a little tipsy!
Nangong Wenjian turned to look at Nan Yanxi.
He asked with great interest: "Little brother, I see that your kung fu is top-notch, but I wonder what kind of weapon you use? It can't be just swinging a stool, right?"
Everyone laughed, and Nan Yanxi scratched her head in embarrassment.
Then I remembered that yesterday afternoon I and Xiaoyan were busy changing clothes.
I also took some time to go to the blacksmith shop and ordered a few weapons!
The shopkeeper asked me to pick it up at noon, so it was almost time.
So he stood up and said: "I am accustomed to using long knives. I ordered a few at the Dongmen Blacksmith Shop yesterday. The shopkeeper said that I would pick them up at noon. I will go and get them now to show you!"
"Hey? Why don't you go there yourself, little brother! Hey! Who is that!"
The head catcher Zhao Biao hurriedly stopped Nan Yanxi, turned around and shouted to the government servant at the door: "Go to the Dongmen Blacksmith Shop and get the weapons customized by Brother Nan!"
The yamen officer responded and went out!
Nan Yanxi thanked her repeatedly.
After a while, the yamen servant rushed back with a bag of things.
Zhao Biao quickly grabbed it, put it on the table and opened it. Everyone came over out of curiosity!
Opening the cloth bag, lying inside were three knives they had never seen before.
The first one is a lightweight Yanling knife.
The blade that Nan Yanxi usually uses for self-defense has a two-inch back blade on the head!
The second one is his main long knife.
The total length is five feet, the width is three feet per inch, the blade is three feet and five feet long, the handle is one foot and five feet long, the blade is straight, the cutting edge is angular and the tip is angular!
It is a combination of Tang Heng Dao and Ming Yulin Dao!
The third one is the Tang Hengdao customized for Situ Yan, used for her self-defense!
Because the use of swords was popular in Daxia, both literati and warriors were proud to wear swords.
Even the troops use swords.
Most of the people who use knives are unscrupulous people.
They are all bandits, thieves, guards and so on.
Most of them are crude wide-bodied knives.
Everyone has never seen such a fine long knife, it looks very fresh!
Nangong Wenjian held the long knife in his hand with great interest.
Chao Nan Yanxi asked in confusion: "This sword is so long, I'm afraid it won't be very flexible when used, right?"
Nan Yanxi shrugged, laughed, and said nothing!
When Nangong Wenjian saw him smiling and saying nothing, he suddenly became interested.
He handed the long knife back to Nan Yanxi, stood up and walked to the spacious area outside the house!
"Come on, little brother! Let's have a spar, just in time to sober up!"
Everyone applauded when they saw this!
Nan Yanxi couldn't help but refute his face.
I just want to try it myself, what level of warriors are there in this world!
He immediately responded: "Then it is better to obey orders than to be respectful. Sir, I have offended you!"
After that, he turned around and unsheathed his sword!
Nan Yanxi flew up and went straight to Nangong Wenjian. From top to bottom, he slashed out with a sword, and the sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded!
Nangong Wenjian shouted: "Well done!"
Dancing with a long sword, we welcome the general!
The two of them were going back and forth, and they got into trouble!
Nan Yanxi wields the long sword, sometimes with both hands, sometimes with one hand!
The sword technique is even more changeable. One moment, the sword opens and closes with the force of opening the sky, and the next moment, the sword moves with it, and the force of the sword is endless!
The tip, blade, back, hilt, and handle of the knife have all become weapons of attack in Nan Yanxi's hands!
Even a martial arts master like Nangong Wenjian couldn't adapt to it for a while and couldn't defeat him!
