Returning on a Snowy Night [Martial Arts]

Let's not talk about the future, let's talk about the present.After the guests dispersed, Ye Jin chased after Murong Xiu and called him: "Master Murong! You..." As soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.

Murong Xiu's appearance today is completely strange, which made him feel afraid to get close to him. Just now when he saw him turn around and leave, Ye Jin felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, as if if he didn't stop him, the distance between himself and him would shrink. Farther and farther away.

Hearing Ye Jin's voice, Murong Xiu, who was planning to go back to the room to change clothes and tidy up his appearance before seeing Ye Jin again, immediately stopped in his tracks.Ye Jin was feeling uneasy, when he saw Murong Xiu turn around and look back at him with a familiar gentle expression on his face.

At this time, Murong Xiu seemed to be a different person from before, patiently waiting for Ye Jin to speak, seeing that he was silent, he said: "Brother Ye, what's the matter?" Thinking that he had just fought against someone, he asked with concern : "Brother Ye is injured?"

Ye Jin's heart warmed, and he regained his language ability in an instant. He said gratefully: "I'm fine! Thank you, the owner, for protecting me in front of everyone today..."

Murong Xiu didn't wait for him to finish before he refused and said, "Brother Ye, what did you say? Today I have to thank Brother Ye for his righteous action, the one who puts the troubles to rest!"

Ye Jin had already realized what was wrong with him at this time, seeing Murong Xiu say this, he felt even more ashamed, and cupped his hands and said: "The owner of the villa is serious! The owner doesn't blame me, and I will do it for you! How dare you take credit for it?"

Murong Xiu had a smile on his face, and said sincerely: "Where? Brother Ye is willing to step forward, I am very grateful!——Brother Ye is indeed one of the best masters in the rivers and lakes, and the demeanor of just overwhelming the crowd really makes me overwhelmed." ah!"

"Cough... The owner has won the prize! The owner is the master of the world, shocking the world, how can I get half a point in this trivial martial arts?" Being praised by his sweetheart, Ye Jin was ashamed, but he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

At this moment, a sudden voice came in: "I told you two, stop flattering each other! I got goosebumps!"

As soon as the words were finished, Li Xiaoyao suddenly appeared from the corner.The two of them were both embarrassed and annoyed by this surprise, they paid too much attention to each other just now, they didn't even notice Li Xiaoyao who was eavesdropping.

However, Li Xiaoyao didn't notice the mood of the two of them. He put one hand on the other's shoulder carelessly, and couldn't help but asked curiously: "By the way, what kind of panacea did you two take? Your cultivation is like falling from the sky. It’s the same when you come down! ——If you had this level of skill a few months ago, wouldn’t cleaning up Yan Jiuzhou seem like a game?”

Murong Xiu listened to Li Xiaoyao's words, pondered for a while, and then said to him solemnly: "Do you really want to know?" Li Xiaoyao said without hesitation: "Of course!" Nodding, he led the two of them into the secret room of his own room.

Seeing Murong Xiu's serious attitude, Li Xiaoyao felt his heart pounding, and he couldn't help putting away his casual attitude.Murong Xiu closed the door, and was about to tell him about the matter, when Li Xiaoyao suddenly waved his hand like a fan, and refused, "No, no, no! I suddenly don't want to know! You better not tell me!"

Murong Xiu: ...Murong Xiu suddenly felt that his fist was a little itchy.Li Xiaoyao was obviously not aware of the crisis he was facing, and was still immersed in the painful struggle of unsatisfied curiosity. He pulled his hair with both hands and said frantically, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I really want to know!"

Seeing that Murong Xiu seemed to be about to speak, he refused again and again: "No, no! Don't tell me! This secret is too big. I'm afraid I'll go out bald if I get drunk!"

When Murong Xiu heard this, the anger in his heart dissipated immediately, he was both funny and moved by Li Xiaoyao's behavior, so he simply let him go.

After a while, the man's face turned red, but he still held back and said: "No, you can't ask! Hold on!...How can you bear it!" He was talking to himself, when the man suddenly There was another burst of madness, and I couldn't help banging my head on the wall with a "bang bang".

"Pavilion Master Li, what are you doing? Stop it!" Ye Jin hurried over to hug him, not letting him harm himself, and said anxiously to Murong Xiu: "Master Murong, is he out of his mind?"

Unmoved, Murong Xiu glanced at Li Xiaoyao lightly, and said casually: "It's okay, this wall is covered with cork, don't worry about him and let him hit it for a while."

After a cup of tea, Murong Xiu sat at the table and drank tea calmly, Li Xiaoyao sat aside, a red envelope swelled up on his forehead, Ye Jin was holding a bottle of wound medicine and was administering medicine to him.

Li Xiaoyao hissed and gasped, while teasing Murong Xiu in dissatisfaction: "I said Murong, I'm so hurt, you just look at me like this? I'm still not your brother!"

Murong Xiu didn't even glance at him out of the corner of his eyes, and said calmly: "Didn't I prepare wound medicine for you? This is the holy medicine for healing in the world. Only people who have suffered serious injuries are willing to use it. You don't need a cup of tea for your injury." It can be back to normal!"

"What!" Li Xiaoyao immediately jumped up when he heard this, grabbed the bottle in Ye Jin's hand, and after seeing the label on it, he felt his heart suddenly not feeling well.

He looked at Murong Xiu with the eyes of a prodigal son, and said sadly: "You, you...you actually used such a holy medicine worth thousands of gold to treat my small injury, do you know how to write violently?"

Murong Xiu looked at him speechlessly, with clear words in his eyes: No matter you feel neglected, you are too kind to you and you feel sorry for money, what do you want?

Seeing what Murong Xiu meant, Li Xiaoyao coughed in embarrassment, carefully capped the bottle in his hand, put it on the table, and changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "I didn't expect Zhao Wenqu to be so brainy that he would adapt to the situation. Thanks to him today..."

"Wait!" Hearing this, Ye Jin quickly interjected, "Is that sword really made of star steel? Zhao Qingyuan didn't lie?"

This time it was Li Xiaoyao's turn to look at Ye Jin speechlessly, and he rolled his eyes and said, "Please! If that sword is made of meteoric iron, why should I be so anxious to cover it for you?"

Ye Jin's heart sank when he heard this, and he looked at Murong Xiu for help, and saw him nodding in agreement: "The Zhao family father and son are not such pedantic people, they can't do the thing of using magic soldiers to die, those words are just his epithet."

Murong Xiu then added: "I've had someone collect all the fragments of the sword. After testing it with the meteoric iron from the outer space, it's definitely the star steel."

Ye Jin didn't dare to believe that he could dismantle the star steel with his bare hands, so Zhao Wenqu believed it when he said it. Now he knew that it was true, and he couldn't help being shocked.

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Jin understood Zhao Wenqu's intentions, that left and right were just a matter of Mu Xiuyu Lin.Thinking of Zhao Wenqu's actions, he was filled with admiration, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Zhao is so righteous, I don't know it at all."

Then he asked with some hope: "Can the wreckage of that sword be re-melted?" Li Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "If it was that easy, Zhao Wenqu wouldn't throw away the fragments!" Li Xiaoyao immediately Then he explained the characteristics of Star Steel to Ye Jin.

Star steel is different from ordinary gold and stone materials. The temperature for melting it is much higher than that of meteoric iron, and every time it is formed, it needs double the heat before re-casting.It is very difficult to take shape for the first time, and it is simply impossible to recast it again!

Although the hardness of the star steel will increase qualitatively every time it is cast, such a good thing can only be a dream.

After Ye Jin heard this, he remembered the matter in his heart. Murong Xiu tentatively proposed to compensate Zhao Wenqu with the magical weapons collected by the No. [-] village in the world, but Ye Jin firmly refused.

At this moment in Mingjian Villa, the owner of Zhao Zhuang retreated to the left and right, called the eldest son to the inner room of his room, and asked him seriously: "You told lies in the No. [-] Villa in the world, the sword that Ye Jin destroyed It's made of star steel, isn't it?"

Zhao Wenqu said without changing his face: "Father, the magic weapon that my grandfather forged has already been buried with him, and the one that was destroyed is just an imitation forged by the meteorite."

Seeing that his son was so stubborn, Zhuangzhu Zhao was laughed angrily by him, and angrily reprimanded: "It's nonsense! As the head of the family, how can I not know about such a big matter as the burial of the gods? ——You are so bold to arrange ancestors, Are you not afraid of being blamed by your ancestors?"

Zhao Wenqu was still unmoved and said: "I secretly put the sword into my grandfather's tomb, that's why you didn't know about it, father! ——The child disposes of the magic weapon without telling the father, and I ask the father to punish him!" said Then, he lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down straight.

Zhuangzhu Zhao was defeated by him, sighed, and softened his tone and said: "Knowing the son is better than father, do you think that you can hide it from being a father? - Isn't it just to protect the kid surnamed Ye? You The person you like, could it be that your father intends to harm him on purpose?"

After hearing this, Zhao Wenqu said calmly: "Father, my son has regarded Ye Jin as a lifelong best friend, and will never do anything against him in this life. Please forgive me, father!"

Zhuangzhu Zhao has already talked about this point, and this kid still refuses to speak plainly, so he is convinced of him.So he let go and said: "Since you have said this in front of everyone, you must not change your words in the future. As a father, I will order the other people in the village to speak the same way."

"Thank you, father!" Zhao Wenqu finally showed a smile. Now that he has his father's promise, there is no hidden danger in this matter.

No matter how coveted the magic weapon is by others, they will not take the risk of completely offending Mingjian Villa to steal the sword: since the ancestors are buried with him, even the descendants of Mingjian Villa will not dare to attack the magic weapon, otherwise it will be It's unfilial; if outsiders don't have the strength to destroy the entire villa, don't even think about it.

"As for that sword..." Thinking of that rare magical weapon, Master Zhao still couldn't help feeling sorry for it, but he was open-minded by nature, so he quickly put it aside and said: "If it is destroyed, it will be destroyed! The left and right are just a sword. No matter how sharp a weapon is, it won't affect the overall situation—my generation of martial arts practitioners should focus on honing their own martial arts, and should not rely too much on external objects."

"Father taught me the lesson! The child thinks the same way!" Zhao Wenqu looked at his father with bright eyes. Because he knew his father's character well, Zhao Wenqu dared to tell a big lie in front of everyone, because he knew , his father will definitely respect his choice and lie for him without complaint.

When Master Zhao walked out of the secret room, he couldn't help but recall the past when he was young.Back then, I was just like the Zhao Wenqu of today, able to do anything for my friends... It's a pity that the world is impermanent, and the brothers who could count on their lives back then are drifting away after all.Thinking about it, he couldn't help but sighed melancholy.

A few years later, Ye Jin, whose martial arts cultivation was no longer comparable, entered the depths of a volcano, recast the fragments of the sword there, and forged an identical sword with his own hands and returned it to Zhao Wenqu. He readily accepted it, and then sealed the sword in the secret room, never using it in his life.

Since it is a sacrificial object, it cannot be reappeared before the body.
