Chapter 21 Mysterious Guest
At night, Wei Yi put the forged sword body and the Qiang stone into the blacksmith furnace to heat and keep warm.
However, he did not know that in the shadow under the sycamore tree,
at some point, a figure in black appeared,
as if blended with the night, and ordinary people could not detect it at all.
Wei Yi stayed by the blacksmith's furnace, always controlling the temperature of the furnace fire within a certain range.
After a long time, Wei Yi stretched out, yawned and said, "Today's work is over."
Wei Yi stood up from the blacksmith stove and was about to go back to the room when he
saw a figure appearing like a ghost. In front of him, he was startled.
But when he saw that the other party had a mask on his face, his face could not be seen, and he was wearing night clothes,
Wei Yi was frightened, and he casually grabbed the hammer next to him, waiting for the opportunity to move.
"Killer?"
This word suddenly appeared in Wei Yi's mind.
There was some fear in my heart, but my brain was racing, thinking about how to deal with it.
I just don’t know if this person was sent by Liu Yuanwai or Jianfeng Tower?
"Don't be afraid, I'm not here to kill you!" the man in black said.
"What are you going to do?" Wei Yi asked without putting down the hammer, still looking at the man warily.
The man threw a heavy money bag casually and hit it on the chopping board next to him.
"Looking for you to help me build a sword." The man in black said.
After hearing what the other party said, Wei Yi's tense heart relaxed a little, but he didn't completely believe what the other party said.
"It's okay to buy a sword, but according to the regulations of the Sword Forging Department, I need to know who you are, and I need to sign the corresponding documents." Wei Yi said.
Hearing Wei Yi's words, the man was silent for a moment, and then said: "There are one hundred taels of silver there. You only need to help me make a one-jewel sword, but you don't have to make any marks on the sword." "This is illegal
. Yes, if the government investigates, I can't afford it!" Wei Yi said again.
He doesn't want to cause trouble for himself. Now this family can no longer withstand any disturbance.
This person doesn't dare to look at people with their true faces, and I'm afraid he won't do any good if he buys a sword.
Looking back, he used the sword he forged to kill some big shot and left no clues.
If the government follows the clues and finds out about him, he will be unable to defend himself, and a catastrophe is imminent.
But if it is a normal transaction.
Even if this person kills the King of Heaven, he will not be blamed on himself.
So he didn't want to take the risk.
What's more, he is still not sure whether this was a trap set by Liu Fugui or Jianfeng Tower.
As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others.
It is impossible for the Liu family to give up.
And the battle between Jianfeng Tower and Wanjiang Pavilion may not involve some dirty tricks.
In such a world, one should be more cautious.
"Aren't you afraid of offending me? I'll kill you now!" The man's whole body momentum suddenly exploded, and Ye Xing Yi Wu Feng took it upon himself to do so.
An invisible pressure, like a mountain, pressed down head on.
Wei Yi felt a chill in his heart and sweat ran down his back.
But he did not give in. He held the hammer in front of him and used brute force to mobilize the power in his body.
He knew that if the other party really came to kill him, he would not survive tonight no matter what.
But even if you are an ant, you still have to be a poisonous ant.
Even if they die, they must let the other person feel the pain of being bitten.
Of course, he also knew that the other party didn't really want to kill him.
Otherwise, he could have done it secretly, so why bother talking nonsense to him.
"You came to me to make a sword, don't you just think that I will be easier to control by you? If you kill me, who else will be threatened by you?" Wei Yi said with a stern look.
"You don't seem to be afraid of my threat!" The man put away his anger again, paused and said: "Don't worry, I came to buy the sword sincerely. First of all, I was not sent by Liu Fugui
. Otherwise, you are already dead now.
Secondly, I am not sent by Jianfeng Tower. The sword you forge for me does not need to be marked with any marks. You can even imitate the style of the swordsmith from Jianfeng Tower to forge the sword.
And no matter what happens in the future, I also guarantee that no one will find out about you. If anyone dares to cause trouble for you, I will be the first to kill him!" The man said with certainty, and his voice sounded very sincere.
The other party's words made Wei Yi a little surprised.
For him to be able to say these words, he obviously knows his own affairs extremely well.
He even guessed what he was worried about.
Who is this person?
Seeing Wei Yi thinking deeply, the man continued: "It's for your own good that you don't know who I am, but don't worry, I don't mean to harm you, and if you help me forge a sword, I can promise to protect you. One month. You should also know that Liu Fugui is narrow-minded and will definitely cause trouble for you in the future.
You don’t have any cultivation. If he really sends an assassin here, any warrior can kill your whole family. .
But if you help me, I can protect the lives of your whole family in the next month. After that, you can only rely on yourself."
After hearing what the other party said, Wei Yi was expressionless and silent. .
But my mind was racing with thoughts, analyzing this person's words.
What the other party said does make sense.
If he was sent by the Liu family or Jianfeng Tower, there would be no need to talk so much nonsense to him.
Just kill yourself and that's it.
And the other party promised to protect him, which made him very excited.
Of course, he also thought of a way to sell the sword to the other party while excusing himself.
"Alas, one hundred taels of silver is a bit short!" Wei Yi said quietly, but in fact he only said this tentatively.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the man threw another money bag over.
"Here are fifty taels. That's all I have with me!"
"Okay, seeing that you are sincere, I will help you this time. But you said you want to keep my family safe, and you just say it without any proof. I How can I trust you!" Wei Yi said seriously.
"Tomorrow morning a horse will die in the Liu family, and Liu Fugui will receive a warning letter!" the man said.
"Okay, deal, come and pick up the sword tomorrow night!" Wei Yi was also very happy.
"Okay!" After saying that, the man turned around and walked towards the shadow of the wall. His steps were so light that there was no sound at all.
Following the figure, it disappeared into the night.
"call--"
Wei Yi breathed a long sigh of relief and put down the hammer in his hand.
He was really nervous just now.
After all, if the other party can appear in front of him without anyone noticing, he is definitely not an ordinary person.
If he really wanted to kill himself, his body would be cold by now.
When negotiating with the other party, he was also stern but pretended to be calm.
Fortunately, it was a near miss.
After some testing on his own, it was clear that the other party really had no ill intentions and was indeed here to buy a sword.
In this world of extraordinary power, the lives of ordinary people are like candles left in the wind.
A slight disturbance may lead to annihilation.
"Next, I have to buy some exercises to practice. Although my qualifications are very poor, it is better than no cultivation at all. I will ask later if there is any medicine that can improve the qualifications of the bones!" Wei Yixin said.
What happened tonight also made him clearly aware of it.
If you don't have enough strength, if someone really wants to harm you, you may not even have room to resist.
"If this person really keeps his promise and protects me for a month, then this deal is a very good deal!"
Wei Yi picked up the two bags of silver, opened them, looked at them carefully, and weighed them again. They were very heavy.
"Just sell him the sword I forged before." Wei Yixin said.
There were no marks on the sword he forged before taking the exam.
I originally planned to keep it for self-defense, but now it seems that selling it to this person would be a good idea.
After putting away the one hundred and fifty taels of silver, Wei Yi returned to his room.
After washing up, Wei Yi lay on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep.
What happened tonight did leave some psychological shadow on him...
The early morning sunshine awakened a brand new day, and Qingzhou City became lively again.
In the Liu family's mansion, a servant ran to the door of Liu Fugui's bedroom in panic and knocked on the door.
"Old, Master, it's not good, it's not good!"
"What are you calling so early in the morning?" Liu Fugui opened the door angrily and shouted angrily.
"Sir, sir, a horse died in the stable last night, and there was a note left beside it. Take a look!" the servant said with a face full of panic.
After hearing what the servant said, Liu Fugui's expression changed.
He immediately took the note from his hand and looked at it, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
There was a sentence written on the note: A piece of advice to Mr. Liu, please show mercy and forgive others. When will the injustice be repaid? If you are stubborn, you will act like this!
