Chen Tuzhi said that Hong Chen had already thought about it. When the master sent him out of Taoyuan, he did not say clearly what kind of knife he was looking for. So far, he has only relied on speculation. Whether there will be such a knife is still unknown.
What's more, finding that knife and returning to Taoyuan, what's the use to the master?
No matter how good a knife is, it is not enough for a steamed bun. For Taoyuan, the knife only needs to be able to cut bamboo, chop firewood, chop vegetables, and chop meat. There is a blacksmith in Taoyuan, and you can find kitchen knives, hatchets, and bamboo cutting knives.
He smelted and polished, and did not need an outside knife. The purpose of the master asking him to find a knife was really unpredictable. Or was it just an excuse to leave Taoyuan and never go back? After all, it was very likely that he would never find it in his lifetime.
That knife.
You can't get the correct answer by just guessing. Hong Chen can only take one step at a time and walk in this world. Having a purpose means having no purpose, and having no purpose means having a purpose. Looking for a knife is not his ultimate goal as a traveler.
Meaning, it is also great to enjoy the scenery and taste the delicious food along the way.
But Chen Tu is different. He has a set goal and knows what he needs to do to achieve this goal. Therefore, every time Chen Tu, who has a purpose, looks at the river in trance, all his thoughts turn into worry.
, while Hong Chen looked at the river aimlessly, but his thoughts were filled with thoughts about the future.
Two people on the same journey have completely different moods. Therefore, they rarely talk to each other. Everywhere they go, apart from acting together to plunder the famous weapons of each force, it is extremely difficult for them to have common hobbies. Occasionally, they have free time.
, Hong Chen will naturally board the front in Qingyang City
After looking at the Yellow Crane Tower, where countless literati left poems, and overlooking the rolling river, they went to the restaurant below to eat a hot bowl of dry sesame paste noodles. But Chen Tu would only buy a pot of liquor and sit on the side of the cruise ship.
, staring at the river all day long, raising the wine bottle from time to time, and pouring wine into his mouth one by one.
When they left Qingyang City, it was already late autumn. The two of them rode horses to a place where the mountains are yin and the water is yang. They saw that the mountains were covered with golden colors and thick layers of fan-shaped dead leaves were piled on the ancient road. The horses' hooves trampled these ginkgo leaves to pieces, and they were walking all the way.
The chrysanthemums are also gradually withering.
The warm south has also entered the cold season at this time. Hong Chen put on a cloak to keep out the wind, and also put a hood brought from Qiangzhou on his head, but Chen Tu was still wearing a single coat, which he hadn't taken care of for an unknown period of time.
Hair is messy in the wind.
"Further south is Qingyue City." Hong Chen pointed forward and said, "We will enter the city by dry road, rest for two days, and then visit various forces. I believe that the people here in Qingyue will be the same as those in Qingyang.
I don’t want to cause any more trouble, so I’ll just give you the weapon.”
Chen Tu said: "That's good. But we have been out in public for too long, and our whereabouts have been leaked along the way. Qingyue was the land of Chu in ancient times, and the folk customs are more robust than those in Qingyang. It is unclear whether they will take the initiative to deal with us.
It can be known.”
"You have to be careful all the way and even check the bowl of noodles carefully. How can they stand a chance?" Hong Chen said, "Even if they want to cause trouble, they will only do so in an open and honest manner. After all, our reputation outside is still that of weird people and weird people."
Guests, they only take weapons, not hurting anyone's life, nor harming innocent people. These martial arts people are too embarrassed to act too darkly. Besides, there are so many precedents. If they throw away their weapons, they will just follow the crowd.
, don’t look too embarrassed.”
Chen Tu thought for a while and said: "What you said makes sense. Oh, what these martial arts sects and heroes like most is fame and face, and weapons are second to them. As long as they can save face,
They are still willing to spend money to eliminate disasters.
When we were in Qingyang City, weren't there two heads of small sects who wanted to befriend us? It's also interesting. I didn't expect that the two of us had already achieved a considerable status in the world from being beaten by everyone in Huangzhou.
, although the reputation is not very good, but at least it is famous enough.”
While the two were talking, a group of people suddenly came from behind and galloped past. The two of them only glanced at each other and saw that these people were all pretending to be carrying knives. They were obviously members of some Jianghu sect, so they urged their horses even more.
They caught up. Unexpectedly, someone in the team saw them. They ran a short distance away before reining in their horses and stopping. The leader of them clasped his fists at Hong Chen and Chen Tu and said, "I dare to ask if you two are black tea."
, the two heroes Chen Tu?”
Chen Tu said: "Forget it, heroes, I am Chen Tu."
The leader was a middle-aged man with a mustache and a strong build. Hearing the words, he was delighted and said: "I just saw that your horse is extraordinary. It is black all over and has white hooves. So I guessed it was Black Tea Hero's precious horse Wu Yun Tao."
Xue. I didn’t expect that it turned out to be two heroes.”
Hong Chen asked: "Senior, who are you? Since you knew it was the two of us, you stopped on your own initiative. Do you have something to do with us?" Most people in the world would avoid him and Chen Tu, even those in Qingyang City would hate him.
The two of them were very respectful, and neither one of them dared to take the initiative to talk.
"I don't dare to be a senior. I am Feng Jinchan, an elder of the Nanjiang Sword Sect." The middle-aged man raised his hands and said, "I rushed to Qingyue City with my disciples just to meet you two."
Chen Tu frowned and said, "Looking for us? What is your purpose?"
Feng Jinchan smiled: "It's just to make friends with two heroes. We are not the only ones willing to make friends with you. Since the two appeared in Qingyang City, there are eight sects, sixteen gangs, thirty-two sects and sixty-four in the west of Qingzhou.
After receiving the news, everyone rushed to Qingyue City, all in order to meet and make friends with the two of them in Qingyue City.
Originally, the leader of our Nanjiang Sword Sect was seriously ill, so it took a lot of time to choose someone to take charge of him. He was two to three days later than other factions. I thought I would miss the opportunity to meet the two heroes, but I didn't want to rush.
It just so happened that I met two heroes on the road. We are so destined, why don't we go together next time!"
"That's all, everyone can go their own way, you go first."
Chen Tu looked gloomy and waved for Feng Jinchan to leave.
"Then let's retire first - by the way, let me tell you that everyone from all walks of life will be waiting for your arrival at Qingyue Tower in Qingyue City, and everyone will bring their weapons with them."
Feng Jinchan was also very sensible and stopped quarreling with the two of them. He led his disciples to hurry up and continue towards Qingyue City.
Hong Chen asked Chen Tu: "You just drive people away? Maybe they still have food with them. If you go with them, you can at least eat two meals for free."
"Who knows what motives these people have?" Chen Tu said, "The Nanjiang Sword Sect is just an unpopular small sword sect in Qingzhou. With so many people coming from all over the city, what about the people waiting for us in Qingyue City?
How many are there? I'm afraid there are thousands of people."
