in the edge

Chapter 19

Things seemed to go more smoothly than Du Chengfeng expected.

Originally, according to Du Chengfeng's estimate, he and Carpenter Li would at least go to Daji, and then look for it for a while, so that they would have a chance to meet people who sell evil spirit weapons - after all, Carpenter Li only heard about it. I haven't found it myself.Of course, finding a vendor in the market is definitely not going to the point of finding a needle in a haystack, but they have to go around twice if they have no connections.

But now, before Daji arrived, the weapon seller came to him on his own initiative.

"You are..."

"Brother Du! Don't buy it!"

Before Du Chengfeng could ask about the price, Carpenter Li who turned around hurriedly pulled him aside and lowered his voice.

"The knives sellers in the town are all liars. Don't buy from them, otherwise disaster will happen."

"fraud?"

Du Chengfeng was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that there were such twists and turns in it.

Fortunately, Carpenter Li also saw Du Chengfeng's doubts, so he just continued talking.

That happened two years ago. At that time, the ax in Carpenter Li’s hand was broken. It happened that the children in the family were clamoring for meat, so they simply drove the cart to Daji, the town. Small odds and ends such as benches are sold to subsidize the family, and the other is to see if I can buy a handy ax and cut a few catties of pork back.

That is to say, when Carpenter Li sold out all the wooden utensils, was ready to go home after purchasing, a man in a thick cloak stopped him, and opened his mouth to sell knives.

Facing a person who hides his head and shows his tail, of course Carpenter Li would not respond, but the price offered by the other party was too cheap, so after thinking about it, Carpenter Li finally decided to spend a little money to add an extra kitchen knife to his family.

Of course, Carpenter Li is not a fool, he also saw the faintly visible dried blood on the knife, but when he asked about these, the knife seller just smiled.

"It's normal to have some blood on it. This is a butcher's knife bought from a butcher's shop. Otherwise, can I sell it to you cheaply?"

Carpenter Li thought about it, and it made sense, so he simply threw the kitchen knife into the car and took it home.

The newly bought kitchen knife is really sharp, much faster than the old kitchen knife at home. It is as easy to cut meat as to cut tofu, even the slippery fat pork skin can be cut with one knife.According to Carpenter Li's wife, he has never used such a sharp kitchen knife. Carpenter Li bought a good thing this time.

The wife was happy, the child also ate meat, and Carpenter Li felt much better. After drinking for three rounds, he fell asleep beautifully.

But who would have thought that something would happen that night.

The first thing that happened was the children. The two half-year-olds were frightened awake in the middle of the night, crying and insisting that someone had entered the house and wanted to kill them. Then there was Carpenter Li's wife, who was so frightened that she huddled in the corner of the bed, trembling. speechless.

As the pillar of the family, Carpenter Li had to summon up courage no matter how frightened he was.But when he ran to the kitchen, ready to take a kitchen knife to embolden himself, he was paralyzed with fright.

On the stove, the new kitchen knife he bought during the day was dripping with blood.

Carpenter Li was already dizzy, but he didn't see this. He passed out on the spot and fell unconscious.

Fortunately, the village is not that big, and Carpenter Li's family howled like ghosts and wolves, causing all the dogs in the village to bark, and even the Yang family in Wubao couldn't sleep peacefully. Only then did I realize that it was just an accident at Carpenter Li's house, not some barbarians who came calling in the dark.

"You shouldn't have bought this kitchen knife."

Carpenter Li still remembered that Yang Xuan, the person in charge of Yangjiabao, told him so at that time.

"This kitchen knife is a murder weapon. It has killed people. Maybe the higher-ups have committed some injustice. How dare you buy this kind of thing for cheap, so you don't want your life?"

It was at this time that Carpenter Li realized that the blood he had seen before was all fake, and what his family members saw were illusions. When he stopped, he frightened himself, and almost died of fright on the spot.

Carpenter Li naturally refused to keep such an unlucky thing, so under Yang Xuan's guidance, Carpenter Li simply found a crooked neck tree outside the village and buried the kitchen knife.

As for the money lost, Carpenter Li could only admit it with gritted teeth, and took it as a lesson.

"It's...indeed."

Du Chengfeng couldn't help nodding his head. Carpenter Li was really unlucky. An ordinary person, even a cowardly and fainting ordinary person, really couldn't face such things as the evil spirit of swords and soldiers.

But this matter is not over yet.

"Later, after a while, I came to Ji Town for the big fair again."

Carpenter Li continued speaking, his expression extremely ugly.

"Then I met the knife seller again. Maybe I hadn't been here for a while. He forgot about me, stopped me again, opened my clothes, and asked me if I wanted to buy a knife...and guess what? ?”

Having said that, Carpenter Li paused.

"The kitchen knife that I lost is hanging in his clothes."

"what?"

After hearing this, Du Chengfeng understood why Carpenter Li said that he had been fooled.

Combined with the evil spirit of this sword, it can be used like this. If an ordinary person buys a knife that has killed people, it will definitely be thrown away. Then it will be picked up and sold, which will directly form a permanent motion. God knows what kind of brain can come up with this. This kind of business has opened his eyes.

"Hey, it's okay. Brother, don't worry. You also know the evil spirit of weapons. I'm not afraid of this."

After patting Li Carpenter's hand to reassure him, Du Chengfeng turned back and approached the knife seller.

Carpenter Li has helped him a lot during these days, so it is also his duty to help Carpenter Li who was cheated find his place.

As for the knife seller in front of him, he didn't care if it was the one Carpenter Li met at that time. Anyway, they were all doing unscrupulous business, so there was not much difference.

"You're the one who sells knives, right?"

Without waiting for the person in front of him to speak, Du Chengfeng waved his hand directly.

"As many as you want, I want them all."

"……what?"

The man who was hiding his head and showing his tail also choked, obviously he had never seen such a generous customer.

"This...Master, do you want all of these knives?"

"I want them all, so there's no need to look for them."

As he spoke, Du Chengfeng threw a piece of silver pancake over, scaring the knife seller into his clothes.

As the saying goes, wealth does not come out in vain, such a piece of silver pancake, who would not be jealous, of course, it must be kept carefully.

At this moment, Du Chengfeng's big hands rested on the shoulders of the knife seller.

"Since you don't have to change anything, why don't you give me a package?"

As soon as the words fell, the knife seller flew into the air.

The world was spinning for a moment, almost making the knife seller think that he was going to be beaten to death on the spot. God knows what kind of vicious person he had encountered, and he actually dared to attack him on the streets of Ji Town under the rule of Governor Liu.

But just when the knife seller thought his life was about to end, he suddenly discovered that his feet had landed firmly on the ground.

It's just that the robe on his body covered with knives has already been held by the murderous man in front of him.

"Don't look at me, a silver cake, in exchange for your pile of rags, even if you add an extra set of clothes, you still earn money."

After saying that, Du Chengfeng put this large robe on himself.

Needless to say, even though there were a bunch of knives hanging inside, the robe was a bit too wide, so it fit me quite well.

"Business is booming, let's go!"

"Grandpa, go slowly, too!"

Although he was still confused, the knife seller subconsciously responded to the distant figure.

It was indeed a good deal, it was a whole silver pancake, and besides, his clothes and those knives would be returned soon, so he could not lose money inside and out.

Today is his lucky day. It's time for him to buy two ounces of wine and have a good time.

Thinking of this, the knife seller put his hand into his clothes.

"Wait a minute? Where's my silver pancake?"

The cool wind from the street was blowing on him, and the knife seller realized that he was only in his unlined clothes.

But the outer robe with the silver pancakes in it had already been taken away.

"Hey! Just wait for me!"

Both goods and goods were empty, and the knife seller couldn't help stomping his feet in anger.

"I remember you! Just wait for me! I'm not done with you!"
