Qiankun Storyteller

Chapter 31
On Zhongjie Street, in front of the theater troupe, the sound of gongs and drums resounded throughout the sky. The opening of the show was very lively. Those who bought tickets entered the theater one after another, and those who didn't bought tickets also stretched their necks outside to watch the movement and join in the excitement.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a person walking from the street, holding a broad-backed long knife with a sheath in his arms, and came to the opposite door of Zhou's troupe.

I saw that this man was of extraordinary stature, seven feet five or six tall, with a thin face and full beard, he looked like an old farmer in the country, but he was born with a tiger's body and a wolf's waist, his arms were like apes, and there was a bruise on his left eye. Remember, force out a bit of fierceness.

He came to the middle of the street with the knife in his hand, facing the Zhou family theater troupe who were clamoring with gongs and drums, stood there and waited without saying a word, he didn't know what he was waiting for.

"This……"

"Don't look, don't look!"

"Go, go, go!"

People around saw that he looked weird, with a mark on his face, like a ghost, and he was holding a weapon in his arms, and they all avoided him even if he dared to approach him.

The Zhou family troupe is located in the middle street, which is the hottest area in Goulan Wasi. It may not be worth every inch of land, but it is also a place to attract wealth. The stalls are also packed to the brim.

Now that this person is holding the knife to this station, it is equivalent to inserting himself into the pile of stalls abruptly.

If it is someone else, the stall owners will definitely not follow, but look at this big man with green face and the knife in his hand, who dares to quarrel with him, the two people on the left and right immediately closed the stall, and dodged far away, and the passers-by also gave way one after another .

In this way, it became a spectacle, and gradually people gathered around to watch the fun.

The more people gathered, the more courageous they became, and something good would happen soon, so they boldly shouted in the crowd.

"Wu Na man, what are you going to do?"

"This is the opposite door of Zhou's troupe, don't make trouble!"

"Look at you holding a knife, don't you want to sell martial arts?"

"Okay, sir, I like to watch juggling performances the most!"

A few good deeds boldly booed among the crowd, and attracted many people. They formed a circle on the inner three floors and the outer three floors, and actually stole the limelight from the Zhou family troupe opposite.

The green-faced man also said aloud: "Selling a knife, the seller passes on a treasured knife!"

"Selling knives?"

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, looking up and down the green-faced man and the long knife in his arms.

But after a while, there are good things that I can't hold back.

"Man, how much do you sell this knife for?"

"The family heirloom sword will sell for three thousand guan!"

"Huh!"

As soon as the green-faced man revealed the price, there was an uproar around him, and everyone was speechless.

"Three thousand strings?"

"My God, how much is that?"

"Are you crazy, a knife is selling for three thousand guan?"

"Could it be that you want to blackmail people, go fast!"

After the uproar, some people commented curiously, some people left in fear, and some people spoke up about good things.

"What kind of bird knife, it costs three thousand guan, I bought one for one hundred and eighty yuan, and it can cut meat and bone!"

"That is, how good is your knife, how powerful is it, dare to call it a treasure knife?"

"Yes, where is your sword treasure, can you tell us?"

Everyone is calling for good things.

Hearing this, the green-faced man also responded: "Why not, just listen carefully, I have three heirloom knives that are powerful, the first one chops copper and iron without curling the edge, the second one is good at blowing hair, and the third one is powerful. Three murders without blood!"

"Oh?"

Everyone was surprised and shouted again.

"How do you chop copper and iron?"

"Why is it so good at blowing hair?"

"I still think it's amazing, it's nothing more than that!"

"Where can a pig iron knife cut copper or iron?"

I don't know who it is, they sang together among the crowd, as if they were fighting with this big green-faced man.

The green-faced man was not annoyed by this, and explained aloud: "Ordinary pig iron knives can cut a few copper coins, but my precious knife can cut twenty or thirty cash, and two or three layers of fish-scale iron armor can also be cut with one knife." , grab a strand of hair and put it on the knife edge, and blow it lightly, all of them will be cut off, if someone kills someone and beheads them, no blood will be seen after crossing the flesh and blood, just hurry up!"

"This……"

"In this way, it is indeed a good knife!"

"A good knife is a good knife, but the price is too expensive, right?"

"That is, three thousand coins, who can afford it, the God of Wealth?"

"Hmph, there is no proof, no one knows if what you said is true or not, you have the ability to test it!"

"That's right, if you have the ability to practice it, tell me to open my eyes, maybe the God of Wealth will buy your knife!"

It's not a big deal to watch the excitement, and a few good-for-nothings shouted again, which attracted many passers-by to watch.

"Try it!"

The green-faced man was not annoyed, he said loudly to the crowd: "Who is willing to spend some money and collect some copper coins, and then go find a few pieces of pig iron, and see if the precious sword in my hand is good or bad!"

"Okay, okay, count me in, take it!"

"Grandma, you just pay a penny and still shout so happily?"

"Aren't you so happy that you didn't pay any money?"

"..."

Outside the theatrical troupe, it became lively, attracting the attention of many passers-by and joining in.

Inside the troupe, Shi Qian led two or three Heifeng hall members, and shouted in a slightly high-pitched voice: "Is it really so powerful?"

"Yeah, yeah, you didn't see it at the time, that knife has gold flowers and dragons inlaid on it, it's eye-catching, it's very beautiful!"

"Chopping copper and chopping iron, you can blow your hair, that's called a quick one!"

"I heard that there is still no blood to be seen when killing people. If you cut the knife and don't see pain, you will die!"

"It's just that it's extremely expensive. Who can afford three thousand coins? That man must be crazy poor!"

Several members of the Heifeng Hall embraced Shi Qian and talked about it.

Shouting and discussing like this, but the effort of a group, I saw Hu San leading the two hooligans over.

"Brother Shi Qian, don't come here unharmed!"

Hu San leaned in front of Shi Qian, made a very affectionate look, and said, "Come, come, I specially reserved a good seat for you and the brothers in the hall, and prepared food and drinks, you and I go in , have a drink!"

Shi Qian also smiled: "Brother Hu San, you are being polite. Now you are a big celebrity in front of Master Ma and Boss Zhou. How can you spend money? I will treat you to this show and wine. Brother Hu San, can you come and have a few drinks?" It's just a compliment."

"Brother Shi Qian beat me!"

The two of them exchanged hypocritical politeness, and then they saw Hu San and said: "Brother Shi Qian, I just heard you talking about the precious sword from a distance, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that!"

Shi Qian smiled: "There is a green-faced man outside the door, who sells an ancestral treasure knife for three thousand guan. I heard that the knife is inlaid with gold flowers and inlaid with dragons. It is very dazzling, and it cuts iron like mud. Copper coins and iron pieces can't resist a knife, it's a good treasure, but unfortunately I don't have any silver, hey... let's not talk, brothers, go to the theater!"

After finishing speaking, he entered the theater surrounded by several black wind halls, leaving Hu Sanyi rolling his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
