Baibao Pavilion is located in the most prosperous area of Yuexi City. Different from the low-key simplicity of Danyangfang, Baibao Pavilion is extremely luxurious, covering a vast area, with magnificent pavilions and pavilions, giving it an aura of wealth and splendor.
The two walked into the door. The layout of the Baibao Pavilion was grand, with distinct levels and an exquisite and luxurious layout. The guests inside were all dressed in rich and luxurious clothes. In contrast, Xiao Che and Xiao Shitou, who were simply dressed,
The two of them were dressed like beggars begging along the street. Their appearance was like rubble mixed with pearls. The surrounding guests without exception cast their eyes with contempt and disdain. Upon noticing this, Shi Cheng's
The expression on his face changed slightly, but Xiao Che's expression remained unchanged, as if he was a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
"Xiao Che, we already have Grandpa Lin's help, why should we come to Baibao Pavilion?" Shi Cheng lowered his voice and asked in his ear.
Xiao Che patted the thousand taels of gold tickets in his arms, a rare opportunity for a nouveau riche, and said with a smile: "I want to choose a handy weapon, and I will also choose a good knife for you."
"What a knife?!" As soon as he mentioned the knife, Shi Cheng's eyes became obsessed, and his face suddenly turned rosy.
Xiao Che's decision to choose weapons this time was not a whim. He had already made this plan. However, the hidden dangers faced by Liu Du and others forced his plan to be advanced.
In the past few years, his training has focused on physical training, and his martial arts skills include Thunder Fist, Wind Claw and other fist and kick skills, which have been refined into steel. This is how he can understand the thunder that ordinary Qi Ming realm masters cannot understand.
It can be said that at his age, Xiao Che has already achieved extraordinary achievements in martial arts. But at the Yue Xi Festival three months later, the opponents he encountered were undoubtedly powerful, and each of them was not a high-level person.
Martial skills are about controlling the innate life skills. The power that can be exerted by close-quarters martial arts such as Gale and Thunder Fist is ultimately limited. At this time, a good weapon is particularly important. It can completely enhance his combat ability, and whether it is
It takes a lot of time to practice various weapons such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks, etc. If you want to become famous, even if Xiao Che has extraordinary understanding, if he does not have enough time and energy, it will still be in vain.
For now, practicing a sword skill can also make up for his lack of strength after retraining. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone, so why not do it.
"Let's go directly to the counter." Just as Xiao Che stepped forward, his expression suddenly turned cold. "Huh?" He looked up to the second floor. The second floor was a private room in the VIP area.
You can't stay for long. By the window of one of the luxurious rooms, a young man in brocade clothes was looking at him sideways, with the corners of his mouth raised in an arc that looked arrogant and a little cold. At this time, his slender fingers were touching his neck.
Then, the smile was a bit sinister.
"Are you from the Feng family?" A slight smile appeared on Xiao Che's face. He ignored the young man's provocative gaze and calmly walked to the counter.
The middle-aged steward behind the counter saw Xiao Che and the other two's clothes and his eyes were filled with contempt. Before he could speak, Xiao Che waved his hand away.
"Bang!" This was the sound of golden tickets being slapped on the huanghuali wood table. When the steward saw a few dazzling golden tickets, his eyes lit up and he immediately put away his frivolous attitude and came forward with a smile on his face: "Two dazzling golden tickets.
Do you need anything, young hero?"
"Take us to see the weapons." Xiao Che said calmly. He didn't say anything before because he didn't want to waste his words. With the status of the two of them, it was natural that they would be despised and despised by these money-minded managers. So he directly revealed his appearance.
He took the thousand taels of gold tickets given to him by Pharmacist Lin and let the stewards know that he had the ability to purchase. This way, although he felt like a nouveau riche, it was much easier.
"Okay, two young heroes, please come this way." Immediately, the middle-aged steward led them towards an armory in Baibao Pavilion.
In the luxurious private room on the second floor, through the antique carved wooden windows, you can clearly see the scene downstairs. The young man in brocade clothes looked down at the leaving figures of Xiao Che and turned to face the people in the private room.
Another young man in purple said: "Second brother, that poor boy just now is the famous good-for-nothing Xiao Che."
Hearing this, the young man in purple blew on the tea and took a sip. His handsome face had a natural expression, neither happy nor sad.
"Since third brother knows that he is a waste, why waste energy on him? If you have this spare time, you might as well pay more attention to the younger generations of the Xie family and the Lin family. I heard that Xie Guanqi and Lin Qingxiao are getting close to each other these days.
"
"Isn't it just to discuss the Lin and Xie families joining forces and the Yuexi Festival? How could their little thoughts escape your eyes, second brother? Second brother just pays attention." Feng Yundang pursed his lips, as if he was worried about Lin and Xie.
The younger generation of the family can’t get excited.
"It seems that you are very confident in the martial arts competition at the Yuexi Festival." Feng Yunluan said leisurely, his gentle eyes unwavering.
"Hmph, the only shots the Lin family can take are Lin Qingxiao and Lin Qinghan, who are only at the peak of the Three-Line Destiny Realm, and the Xie family is even worse. Only one Xie Guanqi has reached the Three-Line Destiny Realm, and your genius brother
I can break through the four-line destiny realm and become a five-line destiny master in less than a month. How can those rubbish ones be my opponents?" Feng Yundang said proudly.
"Third brother, although your cultivation is fast, don't underestimate the heroes of the world. Wang Congyun of the Mingling Palace and Jiang Xuan, the eldest lady of the City Lord's Palace, are even better than you." Fengyun flipped through the scroll in his hand.
, added quietly.
"Second brother, don't worry. They are just better than me now. As it is now, the situation will be different in three months. Your brother and I will definitely win the first place in the Yuexi Festival!" Feng Yundang promised, patting his chest.
"It's good if you have this confidence." Feng Yunluan lowered his head and flipped through the book in his hand, and stopped talking, looking aloof as if worldly matters had nothing to do with him.
For a moment, there was some silence in the Accord, with only the sound of books turning.
Rustling.
Feng Yundang watched his second brother carefully studying the book in his hand, raised his long eyebrows, and said speechlessly: "Second brother, you are good at everything, but you are a bit boring. I think it would be fun to tease little people every now and then."
After saying that, he looked at the direction where Xiao Che disappeared, with a trace of amusement quickly flashing in his eyes.
After hearing this, Fengyun Luan shook his head and smiled, seeming helpless towards his younger brother.
The three sons of the Feng family can be said to be three heroes of the same sect. The eldest is in trouble, the second is in chaos, and the third is in turmoil. Among them, the second is extremely intelligent and talented, and the eldest is the strongest. He is only eighteen years old but is already a member of the four major sects.
The first is an inner disciple of Jing Lei Sect, and the youngest one is the most talented person in martial arts. He has a white jade fate tablet and is only fifteen years old. He is already a master at the peak of the Four Marks Fate Enlightenment Realm.
…
Elsewhere in the Baibao Pavilion, Xiao Che and his two men, led by the steward, quickly arrived at the armory.
The reason why Baibao Pavilion is called Baibao Pavilion is not for nothing. It has a heaven-level weapons depot, two earth-level weapons depots and three human-level weapons depots. The one they visited was just a human-level weapons depot, but among them
There are a dazzling array of weapons, too many to handle. There are eighteen kinds of weapons such as swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and the number of each weapon exceeds the number of two palms.
"You two young heroes, please choose what weapons you want." The middle-aged steward said with a smile on his face.
Xiao Che and the two looked around. In the center of the armory, there were ten stone platforms with ten weapons placed on them. They caught their attention almost instantly. The weapons each flashed with different lights.
There are swords, knives, guns, etc., all of which exude a powerful aura.
"The runes engraved with power are full of spirituality. Are those spiritual weapons?" Xiao Che asked in surprise and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Weapons are also divided into levels. As far as the levels of weapons that Xiao Che knows, there are only mortal weapons and spiritual weapons. Mortal weapons are divided into three qualities: low, medium and upper. As for the levels of spiritual weapons, he is not clear, but he thinks they are similar.
"Young hero, you have good eyesight. Those ten weapons are low-grade spiritual weapons. Although they are not high-grade, they are all high-quality products from the hands of Master Zhang Qu." The steward smiled proudly.
"Zhang Qu? But the inscription master who forged the Shuofeng Gun?" Xiao Che asked curiously. There are also five or six inscription masters in Yuexi City, but Zhang Qu has a higher status. Everything is made by him.
The price of any spiritual weapon will increase by 30%, but the spiritual weapon he forged is indeed extraordinary. During battle, the power it can add is far beyond that of ordinary spiritual weapons.
"It's Master Zhang. Could it be that the young hero has taken a fancy to some spiritual weapon? But young hero, don't blame me for being rude. With the price of those spiritual weapons, the young hero should not be able to afford it." said the middle-aged manager.
He said it very honestly.
Xiao Che heard this, looked at a spiritual weapon spear, glanced at the price, and immediately rolled his eyes. Five thousand taels of gold! This was only the lowest-priced spiritual weapon. He only had one thousand taels of gold on him, including the spear head.
None can afford it.
Forget it, let’s look at my mortal weapons! Xiao Che thought to himself. Although one thousand taels of gold cannot buy a spiritual weapon, buying two high-grade mortal weapons is not a problem.
"Shitou, you go pick out a good knife, and I'll take a look around first." Xiao Che said to Shi Cheng with a smile.
"Okay!" Shi Cheng nodded excitedly. Given their relationship, he would certainly not be polite to Xiao Che.
"Knife? Young hero, come this way. These are good knives." Seeing the situation, the middle-aged steward immediately led Shi Cheng over.
Xiao Che, on the other hand, wandered around the huge arsenal. He had not decided what weapon to choose yet, so he just took a rough look at it. First of all, he excluded heavy weapons such as hammers and axes. They were too heavy to be heavy. Although
He is relatively confident in his own strength, but this type of weapon is definitely not what he likes. Secondly, he excludes non-mainstream weapons such as whips and forks. It is difficult to practice. These weapons often lack corresponding martial arts. For the current Xiao Che
It is impractical. In the end, only swords, knives, and guns are the three most common weapons left.
"Knife?" He picked up a knife and danced a few sword flowers casually, which was really beautiful. He learned a lot of human-level sword skills from the Mingling Palace, and as a weapon, the sword was relatively good in all aspects.
Perfect. But Xiao Che frowned at this time.
"It doesn't feel right." He shook his head and put the knife back into place. When everyone chooses a weapon, they will be touched to some extent, and this kind of touch can show whether you have practiced the weapon.
Talent. But when Xiao Che held the handle of the knife, he obviously didn't have that thrilling feeling. It can only be said that he has no fate with the knife.
Then, he walked towards an upright silver spear. At this time, his peripheral vision inadvertently fell on a strange-shaped black iron sword in the corner. The iron sword was about three feet long, with a smooth surface without any lines. It was obviously without any traces.
Inscribed with runes, the blade is dull and has no sharpness. It is more like a sword-shaped iron block than a sword.
"Steward, is this dull iron sword also a weapon?" Xiao Che was a little confused and called the steward.
"Oh, that's just a sword embryo. I don't know who made it out of an unknown heavy iron. Although it's not big, it weighs 9,999 kilograms."
"How come this sword is so magical, lying idle here with no one paying attention to it?"
"Because the material of this sword embryo is extremely hard, it cannot be engraved with runes, and it cannot even be opened. With its weight, how can ordinary warriors move it? Moreover, this sword has neither runes engraved on it nor a sharp blade.
To the fortune tellers, it is too useless. And they look down upon it. Over and over again, this sword embryo has been placed in the corner, and no one cares about it." The middle-aged steward said calmly.
Hearing this, Xiao Che also understood the reason why this sword was ignored. Thinking of its weight, he couldn't restrain his curiosity, so he happily said: "Let me try it."
Xiao Che walked in front of the black sword,
Lifting it with one hand, the black iron sword just trembled slightly and then stopped moving.
"Good guy! It's true!" Xiao Che's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but marvel. His physical strength was definitely not weak. Originally, his physical strength was much higher than that of his peers. After these few days of tempering, now his physical strength is as strong as one punch.
He has a strength of fifteen thousand kilograms, and even the strength of one arm is nearly eight thousand kilograms. Even so, he can't lift an iron sword, which really arouses his desire to win.
"Huh!" Xiao Che clenched the hilt of the sword with both hands, his anger sinking into his Dantian. The veins on his arms protruded like horned dragons. He exerted force suddenly, only to find that the black iron sword seemed to have taken root on the ground and was extremely heavy.
"Get up!" With a low cry, he exerted all his strength and swayed his waist. The Xuanyue seeds in his dantian slowly rotated, releasing streaks of Xuanyue power that poured into his arms, "Buzz."
!" With a clear cry, he finally raised the black iron sword.
"Good sword!" Xiao Che raised the black sword to the level of his shoulder and looked at the black iron sword carefully. It was three feet long, the blade was slightly wider and streamlined, and the spine was slightly thin. The only shortcoming was that it was not open.
Sharp, the blade is blunt.
The sword is the ancestor of short weapons and the king of hundreds of weapons. The ancients said: The sword has a double-edged body with a straight and pointed head. It can hurt people horizontally and vertically, and can pierce armor with thrusts. It is extremely dangerous and is born to kill.
Although this sword is a sword embryo, there is a hint of edge hidden in it. When Xiao Che's palm came into contact with the black sword, he vaguely seemed to hear the soft groan of the sword, and felt the breath and vibration of the sword. In a daze, Xiao Che
There was a sense of connectedness between him and this black sword, as if he had known each other before, and he had owned it before. At this moment, he already knew in his heart the weapon he wanted to choose. In this huge arsenal, only this sword made him feel...
Such a deep feeling, like a delicate beauty, like a mellow wine, made him so intoxicated that he could not extricate himself. Apart from this sword, even if the spiritual weapon was placed in front of Xiao Che, it would be difficult for him to see it.
"Hold the sword in my hand and kill all the evil in the world." Xiao Che suddenly said something involuntarily, his tone was indifferent and a bit desolate, completely unlike his voice in the past.
"You and I are destined. Since we don't have a name, let's call it 'Zhu Xie'!" Xiao Che looked at the black sword in his hand lovingly, and his slender fingers gently brushed the smooth sword body. Before he said, 'Zhu Xie'
When he said the word "evil", he seemed to feel the slight trembling coming from the sword, as if it had become spiritual and he was cheering for joy.
At this moment, he finally understood why Shi Cheng was so obsessed with the sword. It felt like he was immersed in the sword at this moment, and his body and mind were unified and free.
After a long time, Xiao Che came back to his senses and looked at the sword with soft eyes, just like his lover in the previous life. Although the sword was extremely heavy and could not be moved with his current strength, he had great confidence.
After condensing the seeds of the red sun and opening up the sea of qi, it is time to show the power of this sword!
When the steward saw Xiao Che lifting the sword, he trembled with fright. The body of this thin and fragile young man actually contained such a powerful force. You must know that even some powerful men in the Qi Fate Realm could not lift this sword.
.
"Young hero, if you like this sword, you can get it for only three hundred taels of gold." The middle-aged steward said, even though he was surprised, there was a hint of joy on his face.
"Three hundred taels of gold? Do you think I'm easy to bully when I'm young?" Xiao Che raised his eyebrows and said, "One hundred taels of gold." With the black sword in his hand, his body faintly exuded a faint edge, like a sword hidden in a sheath.
One hundred taels of gold is definitely not a small amount. You must know that in an upper-class civilian area, the average person's annual expenditure is no more than ten taels of gold, while Xiao Che's family's usual annual expenditure is less than one tael of gold.
Of course, the value of this black sword in Xiao Che's hand is far more than a thousand taels of gold, but if it is placed in the Baibao Pavilion where no one appreciates it, a hundred taels of gold is enough.
"Okay, one hundred taels is one hundred taels!" The middle-aged manager's shrewd eyes turned, sensing Xiao Che's tough attitude. In addition, the sword was indeed unused, so he agreed to Xiao Che's price without much hesitation.
.
At this time, Shi Cheng, who was on the side, also picked out a good sword that was a top-grade mortal weapon. He looked at the long sword with the same affectionate gaze as Xiao Che looked at the sword, and did not want to look away. The total length of this sword is four feet.
Six inches, the knife is three feet three inches long, the handle is one foot three inches, the blade is slender, the back is slightly thick, and the blade is sharp. There is a faint cyan light flashing, and it can be seen that it is blessed by some wind runes.
"This knife is called Death Wind." Shi Cheng didn't say much, but the heat in his eyes did not hide his love for this knife. Almost as soon as he saw it, he completely fell in love with this knife.
Shi Cheng's innate life card is a special wind-killing attribute, which is as sharp as a knife. It can be said that this knife named passing wind completely matches his own characteristics. No wonder he can't put it down so much.
"This Passing Wind Knife is the best among the top-grade mortal weapons in this library, and it's worth five hundred taels of gold." The steward said with a smile.
"That's it." Xiao Che nodded. He understood Shi Cheng's mood at the moment very well. In addition, he was in a good mood and was too lazy to bargain with the steward.
Xiao Che selected the black sword, and then selected a short dagger that was a high-grade mortal weapon. It was very suitable as a hidden weapon. The three weapons added up to a total of nine hundred taels of gold.
After leaving the armory, the two of them came to the counter and were about to pay. At this time, a slightly frivolous and casual voice floated over.
"Isn't this sword the weapon I had my eye on before? Why was it taken out today? The manager——"
Xiao Che turned his head and saw a man dressed in brocade, rich and gorgeous, walking towards him not far away. He frowned and put on an expression of arrogance and dissatisfaction, but his eyes were full of amusement.
"The drunkard's intention is not to drink, the person who comes here is not good." Xiao Che rubbed his brows. When he saw Fengyun Dang's first reaction, he was keenly aware that this person's goal was not the sword but him.
