Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Wonderful Quaint

It is the winter solstice of another year, and the capital is covered with silver.

Qian Ping'an's hands were in each other's sleeves, wearing a dusty jacket, spitting white gas from his mouth, stepping on the snow, and squeaking towards the tea shop he was used to.

Today coincides with the great joy of the owner, the rice shop has not opened, and I have taken an early break, and I can go to listen to the storyteller talk about the novelties published in the newspaper.

Over the past year or so, the world has changed a lot, but in the eyes of Qian Ping'an, a rice shopman, life doesn't seem to have changed much, but in the past, I felt that there were more and more scarce and valuable goods from the north and south, and it became more and more worthless.

In addition, everything is as usual, just the story told by Mr. Storyteller is more and more interesting, the rivers and lakes that used to be far away from him seem to be close in front of him, and even the neighbors next door don't know a few of them can actually be a few masters of the world, by the way, such as a number of words that he learned from Mr. Storyteller, which makes him seem to have read books and seen the world, in front of strangers like the kind of master hidden in the market or game red dust, and this comes from a thing called a newspaper.

They communicate the affairs of the rivers and lakes everywhere through the teleportation array, and Chen Xiucai at the entrance of the alley said that this is "knowing the world without leaving home".

"The owner has always been sad recently, nagging the rice in the south to be harvested three times a year, obediently, it can be planted three times a year, how much grain should be harvested?" Qian Ping'an casually thought about the things of the past few days, the price of rice in the capital fell three times in ten years, and the owner was sad about a few black hairs, and hurriedly asked his son to marry a wife.

Shao Dong is very interesting, often can see him listening to books in the tea shop, always comfort the owner not to care too much about the food in the south, what the world has disadvantages will be advantageous, there are advantages and disadvantages, since it can be three times a year, it will definitely not taste as fragrant as the rice here, and the price of different rice will be different. There are those who are poor and those who have more money to enjoy, and things are not too bad.

I like to listen to these words the most, if the rice can't be spread, I can only find another way to make a living.

In the midst of his imagination, Qian Ping'an stepped into the tea shop, which was a lot warmer, but it was not like a restaurant teahouse with a copper basin burning charcoal for heating, as if spring was coming, and the tea here was cheap. can't afford such a cost, and only people like Qian Ping'an will come here to drink tea and listen to books with a few pennies.

The only light came from the storyteller's feet, the copper furnace shimmering red, dispelling the chill.

Mr. Storyteller has a goatee, because he is literate, because he can tell the content of newspapers such as "Wulin Express" for the first time, he is highly respected by the poor people in the vicinity, and now he drinks the bamboo leaf green tea specially prepared by the tea shop, shaking his head. Close your eyes and recuperate, as if humming a low opera, waiting for the next story.

Qian Pingwen took a sip of a large bowl of tea, only to feel warmth. The cold snowflakes of the body melted, and it was indescribably comfortable.

For a guy like him, he can come here every once in a while for a cup of tea and listen to the commentary. It's already a great luxury, and if you haven't married yet, I'm afraid you can't do it.

That's when it happened. Several horses rushed like a whirlwind, suddenly stopped at the door of the tea shop, and jumped down several men wearing big swords, swords and swords.

"Shopkeeper, come to five bowls of good tea, piping hot and strong!" The man at the head was wearing a fur hat, holding a three-foot long sword inlaid with gold and jade in his left hand, and there was a scar on his eyebrows, making him look like a god who had opened his eyes to heaven.

"There are different eye scars on the forehead, the scabbard is inlaid with seven jades, and the "Divine Eye Sword" in Yuexi is high and heavy?" Qian Ping'an thought moved, and thought to himself.

And some of the guests in the tea shop have already spoken low, and they also think that this is the "Shenmu Sword", a first-class hand in the rivers and lakes, and has appeared in the "Wulin Express" several times.

People who come to listen to books are as familiar with him as they are with their neighbors.

"That Divine Eye Sword that failed miserably in the 'Sad Divine Palm' Gu Wenxiang?" asked a tea guest.

"Yes, yes, it's him, but the three swords were slapped by Gu Wenxiang and the Seven Jade Swords flew away. Someone answered in the affirmative.

"Gu Wenxiang is one of the few masters in the world, one of the East and West Blades, and it is normal for the Divine Eye Sword to defeat him. "It was natural to lose to Gu Wenxiang, but at that time, Gao Fushen was proud of his swordsmanship, took the initiative to challenge, and ...... tsk" The whispering sound was like mosquitoes and flies, and it quickly spread away, talking about the battle that made Gao Fushen appear on the "Martial Arts Express" for the first time.

Gao Xingshen is a well-known swordsman in the rivers and lakes, his ears are so keen, he has collected all the discussions in his heart, and at this time, he heard the blood surging upward, his face was red, and he was in hot pain, and he was embarrassed.

It's okay to be told by fellow people in the rivers and lakes, I am indeed too arrogant and arrogant, and I even challenged the sad heart, but now I am being talked about by ordinary people who have no kung fu, and I am ashamed to laugh at me wherever I go.

I really want to be famous, but not so famous!

The appearance of "Wulin Express" has made a wonderful change in the reputation of people in the rivers and lakes, in their words, they have become "public figures", and their every move is like a star at night, attracting the attention of the world, so they have to pay more attention to the image, and the more they have their own style, the easier it is to be admired.

There is always something wrong with such rivers and lakes...... Gao Fu was annoyed and ashamed, and he couldn't wait to draw his sword to kill these noisy poor men, but if he was really so impulsive, as long as he didn't kill them all, the "Wulin Express" would have similar front-page headlines every few days:

"The Sword of God Enters the Devil, Killing the Innocent", "Tired of Fame, Gao Xingshen is Crazy", "Into the Heart of the Murderer Gao Xingshen, What kind of rivers and lakes and what kind of rules made him make such an extreme choice", "Knocking over the beggar's job at the age of seven, peeping at the woman's bathing at the age of nine, the perverted life of Gao Xingshen" ......

Just thinking about the topic, Gao Xingshen shuddered, this is more uncomfortable than chasing and killing all over the world, and the reputation is completely ruined, the reputation of the evil demon Zuo Dao is so terrifying, a little mysterious, and this will only make people cry and laugh, like a harlequin, and if you take revenge on the "Martial Arts Express", just thinking about their owner's divine teleportation ability, they can't get out of the sword.

The rivers and lakes are big, and there are very few people who are not for fame and fortune.

Taking a deep breath, Gao Fushen chose to turn a deaf ear, turned his head and was about to leave.

At this time, his companion said: "Brother Gao Xian, how much praise you can withstand, how much slander you can bear. ”

Gao Fushen looked sideways at his companion, nodded slightly, stepped forward again, and sat down at a table.

This brother Ren likes to dance and write ink among the people in the rivers and lakes, and he likes some sentences in the "Wulin Express" quite much, and he often hangs on his lips. But there is some truth to some of it.

"Don't be angry, the enemy will laugh. The companion spoke up again, using the "famous sayings" he had collected.

Gao Fu sat quietly and quietly, thinking about the newspaper in his mind, this new thing is now springing up like mushrooms after a rain, everywhere, involving people from all walks of life, no longer like in the past due to the limited publication of the "Wulin Express", most of the people published are the top figures in the martial arts, and the vast majority of the martial artists can not understand the change of "identity". Now, as long as you have a little fame and do something relatively influential, you can't escape the report and spread your reputation.

I heard that the owner of "Flying Fox Village" stuffed money into the editor of the local newspaper and the "Wulin Express", and covered up the loss to the disciple during the competition...... Gao Fushen thought enviously, but unfortunately he challenged the "sad palm" at that time, and the matter was quite sensational, and the editor couldn't suppress it at all.

Syllable!

Mr. Storyteller was shocked. The house came back to its senses and became unusually quiet.

"The front page of today's 'Wulin Express' is a serial of allusions to the rivers and lakes, which is the event of the shocking sword in the past, titled "Fighting the Sword to the End of the World". The storyteller was succinct.

The high ups and downs are refreshed. "Wulin Express" actually used the front page to serialize allusions?

And the Astounding Sword is his most respected predecessor, believing that he is the first swordsman in the past.

And Qian Ping'an's eyes were blank, and he didn't know why, his understanding of the affairs of the rivers and lakes began in the past few months. It's good to know that there are masters with names and surnames today, where can you know the strong people in the past?

The vast majority of tea customers are the same as him.

The storyteller's expression became solemn, and he read the wedge:

"Through the ages. There are only a handful of people who can reach the peak of the martial arts and shatter the void, and the closest ones are the Sword Emperor and the Amazing Sword. ”

"Amazing sword when he was a child to learn martial arts, bundle the crown of the great success, and then understand nature, peep into the way of heaven, because of escorting Lu Guan into Beijing and set foot in the rivers and lakes, light anti-poison impermanence, night town mountain temple, the river will be evil, the long sword moves the capital, and then sit with the sword emperor and talk about the road, the heart has an understanding, knowing the martial arts is difficult to fake others, so abandon the glory and wealth, drift away, many years later, march into the supreme martial arts, reappear in the rivers and lakes, no one can resist, and the sword emperor fought in the sunset peak, both shattered and gone. ”

Hearing the short outline, Qian Ping'an and the others were deeply shocked, it seemed that this was the real martial arts master, compared to him, the top masters he knew before seemed to be ordinary people, and he did not have the spirit of a grandmaster.

Mr. Storyteller began to talk about the text: "The Amazing Sword has no specific name handed down, only the title of Xiao Meng, but when he sets foot in the rivers and lakes, it doesn't matter what it is called, because the world will only remember the Amazing Sword." ”

In order to learn the sword, he went through a lot of hardships and suffered a lot of loneliness, so he took great care of his body and patiently waited for the opportunity to make a sword, and the opportunity to make a sword out of the world. ”

At this time, his sword and people were nameless, and no one knew what kind of customs were hidden in his scabbard, and when he was full of strength, waiting for the opportunity, he took up his sword, and walked out of the silence of the ancient temple in the deep mountains, the world was amazed, who was he? Where did he come from? How could he have such terrible swordsmanship?

It didn't take long for him to become one of the two most famous swords in the rivers and lakes.

From nameless to famous, it only takes one sword, and no one dares to look directly again.

......

Qian Ping'an has never heard such a story, never knew that there was such a character, after a month, as long as there is money and is not busy, after the rice shop closes, he will go to the tea shop to listen to the book, if not, then find familiar tea customers to chat, listen to their relays, from "the sword to send Lu Shuai for thousands of miles, through five levels to kill six generals, night town mountains and rivers temple" "not worthy of my sword" and so on have heard the "Battle of Sunset Peak", he listened to him fascinated, remembering the style of his predecessors.

"If I could have known the story of the Amazing Sword before, I would definitely find a way to practice martial arts......" Qian Ping'an sighed.

This time, the "True Story of the Amazing Sword" is a lot more detailed than the bits and pieces left over from the past, and the image of the Amazing Sword has also been plumped, although it has a certain difference from the previous "Cold Swordsman", but it is more humane, closer to the daily life of the imaginary swordsman, and the admirers of the "Amazing Sword" such as Gao Xingshen not only did not resist, but quickly accepted such a new image and changed their cognition slightly.

This is the amazing sword with human taste!

In the Divine Sword Puppet placed in Shang Jiuming's study, Meng Qi's divine consciousness used this change, with the help of the medium of the Divine Sword Puppet, to understand the feedback of heaven and earth, and the change of connection.

“...... Gotta adjust it in this direction. "Meng Qi has gained something.

The next day, when Qian Ping'an stepped into the tea shop again, the front page of the "Wulin Express" in front of Mr. Storyteller had become:

"The long sword is ruthless, the man is affectionate, and the secret history of the sword is amazing". (To be continued......)
