Chapter 34: A greeting gift that is not fierce enough!
the next morning.
At breakfast time.
Xu Xiao had a pair of panda eyes and an expressionless face as he ate his breakfast with grunting noises.
You know what, one on each side is quite symmetrical!
The siblings looked at each other, feeling very awkward, not knowing whether to move the chopsticks or not.
"This...brother, did you beat him?" asked the eldest sister Xu Zhihu hesitantly.
Xu Chunlin shook his head decisively: "No!"
"Oh, all right!"
Xu Zhihu breathed a sigh of relief. Although her younger brother was a little rebellious and often caused trouble for their father, he would not do something so extreme... right!
Xu Zhihu had just put his worries to rest when Xu Chunlin spoke again.
"I only hit his right eye. As for how his left eye got bruised, I don't know!"
You might as well not add this!
Xu Chunlin said: It is my share, so I will naturally bear it bravely. There is nothing I can't say. It was not my fault, so I can't take the blame. It can't be a muddled account.
Xu Xiao put down the bowl in a bad mood, and put on the dignity of the head of the family, saying: "I can't knock on the door frame by myself, let's eat!"
But Xu Xiao complained in his heart: "Hiss~, my father-in-law is really cruel!"
Don’t you think about it? You’ve harmed someone’s daughter so badly that she’s almost dead. What’s wrong with beating you up to vent my anger? This is the lightest punishment!
But Xu Chunlin refused to give in and inquired, "Dad, it doesn't look like you hit the door frame. Instead, it looks like you were beaten by someone."
"Tell me! Apart from my second sister and I, who dares to beat up the great Beiliang King Xu Xiao..."
"Shut up!"
Xu Weixiong's cold voice sounded, with no anger on his face. He picked up a side dish with chopsticks and put it into Xu Chunlin's bowl, as if complaining:
"Eating can't stop you from eating!"
Xu Chunlin held back his laughter, held the exquisite jade bowl and swallowed a few mouthfuls of the Red Jade Rouge Porridge, then gave his father a look that said he deserved it.
After breakfast, Xu Chunlin was left with a sore body, watching Xu Xiao limping away, leaving him alone in deep thought.
…………
Tingchao Pavilion is one of the three forbidden dangerous places in the world of snow, and it has an arsenal containing half of the world's martial arts secrets.
There are nine floors in total, but because "nine" is the supreme number, only six floors are announced to the outside world. There are a total of six slaves guarding the pavilion, and each of them has unique skills.
The first floor of Tingchao Pavilion mainly contains 30,000 volumes of introductory martial arts books, all of which are entry-level books, but the rare thing is that they are not available in the martial arts world;
On the second floor there are four thousand rare copies of Yin-Yang and Diplomacy, which is quite amazing. After all, the word "unique copy" is enough to show how precious it is. In addition to the rare copies, there are also forty-nine rare weapons in the world.
The third floor has 20,000 profound treasures and secret manuals, the fourth floor has a collection of rare stones and antiques, and the things on the fifth and sixth floors are even more amazing. Back then, Xu Xiao led the Beiliang Iron Cavalry to break into the martial arts holy land, the Forbidden City Villa, and took away all the secret manuals inside and placed them on the sixth floor.
The eighth floor is where Li Yishan copied books. The top floor is empty. On the first underground floor, there are 600 spirit tablets of the fallen officers of Beiliang. The second underground floor is where the old Sword God was suppressed.
There are three plaques under the eaves, including the Nine Dragon Plaque with inscription by the late emperor "Majestic and Unparalleled", as well as "The Phoenix Comes" and "The Vigorous Fighting Bull" both written by masters.
Of course, as the prince of the Beiliang Palace, Xu Chunlin could come and go freely in the Tingchao Pavilion, and even dispose of the things inside at will, and no one would say anything.
As long as the entire Tingchao Pavilion is not burned down, Xu Xiao will most likely not care.
However, Xu Chunlin had never personally gone down to the first and second floors underground. After all, it was not the right time. The seventh floor was always mysterious in the original novel, but after seeing it for real, it was actually just that. It was considered as Li Yishan's range of activities. After all, it was not a good idea to always live on the same floor. In addition, people had to go to the bathroom and other tedious things, so some things had to be separated.
The purpose of Xu Chunlin's visit to Tingchao Pavilion today was to see the forty-nine magical weapons on the second floor and the rare antiques on the fourth floor.
After all, if you want to visit an old person, you have to give some gifts!
hum!
"Too hard to break easily. This knife is a bit brittle and not tough enough!"
In Xu Chunlin's hand was a sharp sword, the blade was as shiny as water and gave off a chilling coldness. He flicked his finger and heard a buzzing sound, like the roar of a dragon.
There are grooves on it, and the whole thing looks like a dragon's tooth, which gives it the bloodthirsty meaning of a greedy wolf.
"This... Prince, this is a rare and good sword in the world. It is made of Jiao Chi mixed with thousands of refined frost iron. It is said that when it was quenched at the end, the blood of the strange beast Tianlang on the grassland in Beimang was used to sharpen the blade. It can be said to be extremely fierce.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Jianshen's romantic style had won over swordsmen all over the world decades ago, and countless romantic figures had switched to swordsmanship, I'm afraid this sword would have been listed on the martial arts evaluation list in the hands of some people!"
Wei Shuyang looked at the bean-sized Xu Chunlin in front of him, but he did not dare to neglect him and bowed.
Xu Chunlin frowned: "Although this evil dragon tooth is sharp and full of murderous aura, it has not reached its limit and is not fierce enough!"
"Sir, isn't this sword fierce enough? It's already the best of all the swords on the second floor!"
Wei Shuyang looked at the young master who had such strict demands and didn't know what to say for a moment.
If these magical weapons were placed in the martial arts world, they would definitely cause a bloody storm. However, in the eyes of Xu Chunlin, they are still not good enough.
Xu Chunlin curled his lips and said, "What kind of rubbish did Xu Xiao rob at the beginning? Is it worth putting it in Tingchao Pavilion?"
Uh, after hearing this, Wei Shuyang didn’t know what to say.
However, although Xu Chunlin showed some disgust on his face, he still took the knife, asked Wei Shuyang to hold it, and went up to the fourth floor.
Anyway, the material used to make knife casting is still good.
Xu Chunlin originally planned to pick up a good knife on the second floor and give it to his grandfather whom he had never met. Although the gift is small but the sentiment is great, since it is the first time for his grandson to visit, he naturally has to pick a satisfactory gift for the old man.
Since the knives here were not good enough, he might as well make one himself.
The fourth floor is worthy of being a place for collecting rare treasures and antiques. Almost everything is available, including calligraphy and paintings, rare stones, treasures, beautiful jade, etc. All the objects placed here are priceless.
Xu Chunlin casually took them in his hands and played with them, as if he had found a bargain at Panjiayuan, and used his heavenly magical powers to analyze their materials one by one.
This is also one of the few pleasures of Xu Chunlin. There are always some "pearls in the ocean" that are made into all kinds of strange objects by some people who don't know the value of them, and become so-called antique treasures.
Isn't that what it is?
Just like the one Xu Chunlin has in his hand now.
A jade flute that is crystal clear and as red as blood.
It was originally a leg bone of a phoenix that had been turned into jade, and was made into the shape of the Nine Phoenixes Flute. It seemed that this leg bone had been buried underground for who knows how many years before it was dug out and regarded as a rare piece of jade.
There are many exotic animals in the snow world, such as the Jiao Niu at the bottom of the Longhu Mountain, the Hu Kui at Qingyang Mountain, the Kui Turtle carrying the stele, the colorful python of Jinxiu Lang, the giant panda of Hehe Girl, the black tiger under Qi Xuanzhen, and the red-crowned crane of the sword fairy Lu Zu...
Therefore, it is normal that the bones of exotic animals such as phoenixes and birds remain in the world!
This flute feels warm to the touch, like the finest warm jade from the sun, and it also has a bright red color, which is quite suitable for his elder sister Xu Zhihu.
But now, in Xu Chunlin's hands, it can only be used to forge swords!
Phoenix bones and dragon body!
Maybe you can forge a nice knife!
