Chapter Thirty-Seven: The First Ring Knife
Since humans learned to use force, weapons have been parasitic with them, serving as strengthened 'minions' and extensions of fists and feet. From stones and sticks to firearms and nuclear weapons, their development history runs throughout human history.
Swords, spears, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks.
These 'low-efficiency' weapons that should have been eliminated with the development of the times have now set off a revival trend with the rise of Yuan Qi a hundred years ago.
There are dazzling weapons hanging on the wall of the combat teaching aids area. Although the younger versions are one size smaller than the normal ones and none of them have front-end capabilities, the fascination with weapons is still deeply ingrained in human genes.
"Dad! I want this! This is good for hitting rapeseed flowers!" A child pointed to a certain stick and raised his head to ask for a beating from his father.
"Mom! This whip looks great!"
emm... There are also some who show certain tendencies in weapon selection since childhood.
"Girl, are you here to choose teaching aids for your children?" The despicable city shopping guide took aim at Erhu and said in a bewitching tone: "The one you have is not good. It is the lowest-selling one in our store."
"Yeah?"
The white jade raccoon holding a magic sword in his hand raised his head stupidly.
"Can I still lie to you after all these years?"
The shopping guide came up and pointed at the magic sword, and said with all the treasures: "The original version of this Taoist Zhaijiu magic sword is four feet two, which is one length longer than other swords. It is the standard sword of Taoist disciples and is the most widely circulated. Little girl, do you want to buy it?
Is that the reason for it?”
The white jade raccoon nodded sincerely.
"Oh, I know you novice parents always make such stupid mistakes." The shopping guide took the magic sword and gestured: "But the reason why Taoists choose it as the standard sword is that it is better than ordinary swords when fighting enemies.
It’s long and has advantages, and it’s more comfortable to step on with a sword.”
"Ouch - I understand!"
The white jade raccoon slapped his hand, with a hint of hindsight in his eyes.
The shopping guide has made it very clear that this kind of magic sword has advantages over other swords after the Qi Transformation stage, but before that, its length makes it unsuitable for people to use it.
"Yes, she is a pretty smart girl."
As the shopping guide talked, he put back the sword with a simple style and not much profit, and then took out a very fancy one: "Look at this seven-star sword. It is the best-selling model in the store. The sword body is made of snake grain wood. After polishing, you can
How beautiful does it look? The Qi conductivity is as good as the wood in the secret realm, and the scabbard is also fine. I don’t know how proud it will be to take it out in front of my classmates in class."
"..."
The white jade raccoon fox's eyes were straight.
The workmanship of this sword was indeed beautiful. She took it into her hand and tried it. The conductivity of Qi was also good, so it was more than enough to be used as a teaching tool. It was quite useful in the Qi transformation realm before.
When she was trying the sword, Kang An subconsciously glanced at the price of the sword on the wall. After reading it, he was silenced by the harshness of the city people.
12888??
A piece of wood, polish it and sell it for this price?
Come and take a look at all the people who have been forced to work hard because of robbery. Isn't this more profitable than robbing a bank? The word "child" is indeed the biggest wealth password for merchants.
He quickly scanned the wall.
Beside her, Bai Yuli, who learned the price, was trying to bargain. The price was indeed a bit expensive, and it was enough to enroll Kang An in a Qi training class for half a year. However, the knowledgeable shopping guide could kill her with just a few words.
Already.
'To have face in front of classmates.'
'Win at the starting line, buy early and enjoy early.'
'As parents, don't we do everything for our children?'
Indeed.
Money is dead when you keep it with you, but after you spend it, it will be converted into its due value. As for what you will do when all the money you have is spent... Hey, wouldn't it be good to find a part-time job again after a while?
"Kang'an."
"Auntie."
She was about to symbolically ask Kang An for his opinion, but the latter pointed directly at a certain place on the wall: "I don't want the one in your hand, I want that one."
The white jade raccoon looked in the direction he pointed.
It was a weapon that looked like both a sword and a knife. Due to her own quality, she immediately remembered the name of this weapon - Huanshou Dao.
But compared to the title Huanshou Dao,
People who love it prefer to call it Han Dao. It is a kind of ritual knife unearthed from ancient tombs during the Han Dynasty.
"Not bad."
The eyes of the white jade raccoon boy whose face has been slightly controlled also brighten up.
The Huanshou knife is a long straight-edged knife. The entire knife and the scabbard are slender and straight, with a unique tip. It takes into account both practicality and aesthetics. It looks seamless at first glance, and it is simple but reveals an indescribable sense of beauty.
Take another look at the prices below.
998.
Yeah! The price is quite right too!
The shopping guide looked like she was asking for a commission, and was about to use her sharp tongue to trick Bai Yuli into buying the seven-star sword, but she saw the overly pretentious kid suddenly came over.
"Aunt."
Both his eyes and his voice carried the meaning of killing people without paying for their lives: "Can you help us wrap this knife?"
"It's a small thing! Hehe..."
The shopping guide happily took Erhu to the cashier to issue an invoice. When they left and her emotions cooled down, she realized something was wrong.
"..."
"That's it."
Bai Yuli glanced at the time, then looked up at the gloomy sky: "Let's go directly to school."
Kang An nodded.
As a sophomore, my aunt is usually very busy. She took a special leave of absence for the two days to settle him, so it cannot be treated as a routine.
Erhu arrived at school.
As class was approaching, Bai Yuli touched his head and gave him his cell phone: "Go out and play. It might rain later, so you stay in the building. My aunt will go back to teach you how to practice swordsmanship in the evening."
Kang An nodded obediently.
In fact, he was so happy that he had a mobile phone to play with. This thing can best let him experience the atmosphere of real society!
After he went out, he found a step to sit down, turned on his mobile phone and clicked into a stand-alone game. Bai Yuli's mobile phone was old, and it would freeze when playing some mobile games, and even the corners of the screen were broken.
all in all,
This is a phone that requires some courage to take out.
998…
It’s enough to buy my aunt a new second-tier phone.
After this idea came to his mind, Kang An suddenly felt that he could no longer play cards on his phone, and a desire to reflect on Hu's life surged up.
Kangan, Kangan,
Your aunt has paid so much for you, what can you do to repay her? You can't wait until later.
"This year's junior class has been planned well. There are several good young talents who are about to reach the Qi state. The social response is also good. Qi training is very popular this year. I guess how to recruit students next year will be a problem."
"Let's choose the best among the best. This year's provincial qi training competition has added a new junior group. Then we will just take the top few. The ones who can reach the end must be good. If we don't accept them, people from other provinces will come to snatch people..."
