My wife has a secret

Chapter 109 The last question

Xu Qing had seen military equipment manufactured in Suzhou, as well as the equipment of the imperial guards and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

The elite in the army usually represent the highest smelting technology in the world, but even the swords of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are not as sharp as this sword, shining with the extraordinary aura of a magic weapon.

"This sword is called Jiaomu. It is a sword that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Sword Dance Gongsun family. It was originally made by the famous teacher Ou Yezi and was an unsharpened ornamental sword. But when the descendants of Gongsun fled, they sharpened it and stained it with blood."

Qin Shuying explained the origin calmly.

"Later, because the sword was too sharp, ordinary scabbards could not preserve it for a long time and would often be accidentally damaged. So after hiding in the red-light district of the capital, the descendants of Gongsun specially made a Jiaomuqin and hid the sword inside the qin to conceal its sharpness."

After staring at the sword, Xu Qing suddenly laughed out loud.

Cui'er and Yang Liu didn't know why Xu Qing was laughing, and they looked at him with puzzled eyes. Especially Yang Liu, she wanted to step forward and remind Xu Qing not to stimulate their young lady in a weird way.

There is only one last hurdle left, and the outcome is entirely in the hands of the young lady.

"It seems that you have always been holding back between us?"

"No matter how powerful your martial arts are, there will always be things that cannot be solved."

Qin Shuying is very open-minded about her achievements in swordsmanship. The skills that everyone envies are just a trump card and technique for her to protect herself.

After all, didn't Gongsun, who created the sword dance skill and became famous throughout the world, also end up falling into the mortal world?
"But the last question tonight can be solved with a sword."

Qin Shuying stretched out her fingers as delicate as willow branches, picked up the Jiaomu sword from the ground, and pointed it at Xu Qing.

Just when Xu Qing thought she was going to attack with the sword, the other party casually swung the Jiaomu sword into the air and let it fall in front of Xu Qing.

The sword fell to the ground, making a slight tinkling sound.

"There is a secret hidden in the Jiaomu Sword."

Qin Shuying said slowly: "If my husband can solve it, I will have no other excuses."

Yang Liu, who was standing at the door, felt a pang in her heart when she heard the question Qin Shuying read out.

Cui'er and he knew nothing about the fact that Qin Shuying had inherited the Gongsun family's swordsmanship since childhood, not to mention the Jiaomu sword that had never appeared outside the zither.

Now that the young lady has brought up the secret of the Jiaomu Sword, it is obvious that she is targeting Xu Qing and has no intention of reconciling the old ties.

"Are you kidding me?"

Xu Qing also understood the meaning of Qin Shuying's words. He glanced at the Jiaomu Sword on the stall and asked, "You learned from the Gongsun family. I'm afraid you are the only one who knows the secret of this sword, right?"

Qin Shuying did not respond, but looked at Xu Qing without saying a word.

But there was still some time left, so Xu Qing sat on the ground in a huff and raised the legendary sword, Jiaomu Sword.

Although this sword is a rapier, the entire sword is made of an unknown meteorite iron, so it is not as light as imagined.

Qin Shuying is indeed not an ordinary person since she can wield this thing.

"and many more……"

Xu Qing's face was slightly stunned, and he sat there as if he was in a trance.

I didn't even know that Qin Shuying knew martial arts, so how did I know that this sword was made of meteorite from outer space?

"The blade of this sword is made of meteorite iron?"

Cui'er and Yang Liu thought that Xu Qing was just taking a chance and talking nonsense.

Although there are many records of meteorites from outer space in history, how many pieces of material could be made into the shape of a sword? Most of them are small pieces, most of which are not even as big as a ring.

But unexpectedly, after these words were spoken, Qin Shuying bit her lip slightly and did not respond for a long time.

"Yes." Just when the room fell silent, she slowly spoke and confirmed Xu Qing's statement.

As Xu Qing looked at the sword in front of him, he suddenly discovered that the fine lines on the sword seemed to come alive in his eyes, and began to grow and spread in all directions.

Shocked by this strange scene, Xu Qing threw the sword in his hand away, but his mind was in a mess.

Not only that, the lines did not break off when the hilt left his hand. Instead, they climbed up his arms and began to devour his entire body.

"what!"

Severe pain spread from Xu Qing's limbs and internal organs, paralyzing his entire body.

At the same time, there were more subtle and strange voices ringing in my ears.

"The magnolia flowers are blooming... the flowers are blooming..."

Although Xu Qing was enduring an unknown pain, his mind was extremely clear. However, the voice split into countless strange voices, as if men, women, old and young were whispering together.

The most peculiar thing is that he actually heard every word of these words.

"I see!"

Suddenly, a huge force pulled Xu Qing back to reality.

He had a splitting headache and a dry, bitter mouth. Especially, the world was shaking all around him and he couldn't tell east from west, south from north.

After Xu Qing sat there for a while, his thoughts gradually came back to him and he regained consciousness.

The room was still empty, especially since he was still holding the Jiaomu sword in his hand.

Qin Shuying stood not far in front of him. She, Cui'er and Yang Liu seemed to have not noticed Xu Qing's abnormality at all, and the expressions on their faces were the same as before.

"The blade of this sword is decorated with a magnolia flower pattern. This pattern is not a flower pattern, but a blood groove... Its secret lies in the material of this meteorite, which can resonate with human blood. The blood that seeps into it will make the sword pattern more vivid and emit a strange glow."

After waking up, Xu Qing tried to tell what he had just heard.

"It eats human blood."

Qin Shuying's pretty face changed in shock, and a tooth mark appeared on her slightly pale lips.

The secret of the Jiaomu Sword is only known to the sword holders of all generations after it was sharpened. Why could Xu Qing come to a conclusion without even trying it after examining the sword for a few breaths?

It is precisely because of this that the light emitted by the Jiaomu Sword cannot be concealed by an ordinary scabbard.

It often takes months for the sharp edge of killing people to fade away and return to normal.

"Really?"

When Xu Qing saw the change in Qin Shuying's expression, he also felt it was incredible that he could answer this question.

How could he come to such detailed conclusions since he knew nothing about swords?

Could it be that……

Xu Qing suddenly remembered that the night before he fell asleep, Princess Danyang had come to him in person and gave him a strange "treasure".

He had pondered the effects of this thing several times before falling asleep. After all, it didn't look like a good thing. But now it seems... the fact that he could answer this question must have a lot to do with this thing.

"My dear, Shuying is willing to accept defeat."

A bitter smile appeared on Qin Shuying's lips.

"It seems my fate is sealed."
