"Sir, why don't we... let's look at the presents while they are out?" Seeing the girls walking away, Leo approached with a flattering smile.

Hearing what Leo said, Mei cast a curious look.After all, this was a gift from Fifth Jade's master, and even if they were killed, they would not believe it would be an ordinary thing.

Fifth Jade shrugged his shoulders. His master had already devoted himself to the arduous and elusive great cause of exploring the ruins, so the gifts usually given to him were mostly strange things he found.Of course, with the passing of time, these things will only have a shape.Therefore, after hearing Leo's request, Wu Wuyu opened the package without hesitation.

After opening the package, what came into view was a narrow wooden box about 1.5 meters long.Fifth Jade tilted his head, suddenly moved in his heart, and then quickly opened the lid of the box with joy: a rusty, simple and simple long knife was placed inside.

After seeing the long knife, Wu Wuyu sized it up a bit, and was a little discouraged, but then he let out a sigh.

"What's the matter, sir?" Leo asked curiously.

"It's nothing, it's just that this knife looks a bit strange." Wu Wuyu loosened his brows. Although there are some peculiarities, the length of the blade has already been determined. This knife is definitely not the one he imagined.If not, there is no need to worry about it.

"Knife? Isn't this a sword?" Leo pointed to the weapon in the wooden box. It was narrow and straight. Although it was still in the sheath, it was not difficult to tell that it was a sword rather than a knife.

"Could it be...is this the legendary Tang Dao?" Mei's eyes lit up and she asked.

"That's right." Fifth Jade nodded, and then explained to Leo: "The sword doesn't have such a long body. And there is no hand guard. Of course, the most important thing is that my master knows that I like Tang Dao. He sent it Of course it can't be anything else."

The explanation of the last sentence was really domineering, and Leo was choked speechless for a while.He quickly changed the subject and said, "Don't you use a sword, sir?"

Wu Wuyu rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said, "Hobby! Are those gun enthusiasts all mobile arsenals? Besides, because the Tang Dao is a straight sword, it can be stabbed and cut equally. Compared with the sword, it only lacks a blade. Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, there were swords but no swords, and the swords mentioned at that time were actually Tang swords.”

"Eh..." Leo was speechless.

"Then why are you sighing?" If Wu Yu likes something, how can there be such a strange reaction?Mei asked a little puzzled.

"This... we have to start with the classification of Tang Dao." When talking about his favorite things.Fifth jade became interested, "Tang Dao is divided into four types, namely Mo Dao, Yi Dao, Heng Dao and Zhan Dao. Let me talk about Zhan Dao first. I don't know much about it, because it is a short knife, and it is mostly used for hand-to-hand combat after bullying. , I don’t like it very much. The Mo Dao is powerful. It was the standard weapon of the Tang Dynasty army and was used by infantry and cavalry. Although it is a sword, it has two edges. The length of the blade varies from four feet to five feet. About four feet!"

"Um... how long would it be in the current term?" Leo was at a loss.

"It's nearly three meters!"

Hearing this, Leo was stunned and asked stammeringly, "This... is this still a knife?"

"Actually. This Mo Dao is somewhat similar to a spear, but it is more lethal. After all, the spearhead of a spear is incomparable to the blade of a Mo Dao, and the spear can only stab. The Mo Dao can stab and cut, which is more important. The most important thing is that the biggest enemy of the Tang Dynasty was the Xiongnu. Mo Dao can kill horses!" Fifth Yu took a breath at this point, and then said: "I said before that Mo Dao is completely for the army. So there is no need to consider single-person In the combat situation, all the tossing and turning on the battlefield are just floating clouds, what you want is to slash and kill with no return! Especially when this kind of Mo Dao is equipped on a large scale, the long sword is like a forest, and this momentum alone can make the enemy terrified !"

Leo imagined the shape of the Mo Dao. The double-edged blade with a length of more than one meter is indeed much more domineering than a spear.The entire structure is entirely for lethality, such a weapon is actually the standard weapon of the army, such an army is completely a meat grinder in the era of cold weapons!

"Then this knife must be a ritual knife or a horizontal knife?" Mei said, pointing to the Tang knife in front of her.

Fifth Jade nodded, sighed again, and said, "This one is a Ritual Knife. As the name suggests, a Ritual Knife is naturally a weapon for guards of honor. The handle is slightly longer, and it is a two-handed knife. The blade is slender, beautiful but useless. "

"What's that horizontal knife like?" Leo asked impatiently. Maybe it's because of male hormones. Men are born with an inexplicable interest in this kind of killing weapon.

"Hey!" Speaking of Hengdao Fifth Jade, I couldn't help but sigh, "The appearance of the Hengdao... I have never seen it, because there is no real reference. Starting from the hilt, it narrows to the tip of the knife. Because it is an actual combat weapon, the thickness of the tip of the knife and the root of the blade are also different in consideration of the center of gravity. The horizontal knife is a one-handed knife, and the ring head of the handle is also smaller than that of the instrumental knife. Some." After finishing speaking, Fifth Jade shook his head, "It's a pity! Neither the Mo Dao nor the Heng Dao has ever been unearthed, but the Yi Dao. Now this one, Master has brought me three."

"Sir, didn't you say that Yi Dao is a two-handed sword? This one doesn't seem to be the case!" Leo was aroused by Wu Wuyu's words, and asked suddenly after careful observation.

"Well, I found out too." Fifth Yu nodded, "It's indeed a bit strange, but the blade of this knife is about 1.2 meters long, and this alone is enough to determine that this knife is definitely not for actual combat Cross knife."

"Why? Didn't you say that one inch is longer and one inch is stronger!" Leo asked strangely.

"Stupid, that's when it's hard enough!" Mei hit Leo habitually, and then said: "The blade of this knife is long and narrow. , I'm afraid it will break after a few clicks."

"Eh..." Leo was dumbfounded. The reason is very simple. He understood it when Mei mentioned it a little bit. It's just that he was affected by the current film and television, especially animation, so he didn't realize it just now.Thinking of anime, Leo suddenly asked, "Which one is better, the Tang sword or the Japanese sword?"

Nowadays, when it comes to cold weapons, it is natural to mention Japanese knives.Wu Wuyu pondered for a while when he heard the words, and then said, "Japanese knives need to be sharper."

"Hey!" Hearing Wu Yu's blood was boiling just now, when he suddenly said that it was not as sharp as a Japanese sword, Leo was immediately disappointed.

"One-half of the body of a Japanese sword is a blade, while only one-quarter of a Tang sword." Wu Wuyu explained, "If you say which one is sharper, the Tang sword is naturally inferior to the Japanese sword. But if you put it in In the army, not to mention the Mo Dao, which was born entirely for war, even if it is a horizontal sword, it can cut to pieces the side holding the Japanese sword!"

Leo thought about the nearly three-meter Mo Dao and shuddered. It was a meat grinder, and comparing the Mo Dao with the Japanese Dao was indeed bullying.

"Then where is the power of the horizontal knife?"

Fifth Jade chuckled and explained: "Half of the blade is more than sharp, but the price is not enough hardness. The battlefield is not about two people fighting, the knife is only sharp, it has to be hard enough, otherwise half of the knife will be broken What should I do?"

"Um...not so? Japanese knives are also baptized by war." Leo said with some disapproval.

"Hmm..." Fifth Jade glanced at Leo with a strange expression, and said, "The Japanese war... Dozens of people can revolt, and the rest are peasants who don't even have armor. Cut a whole body of civilians with a Japanese knife Of course, the farmer chops melons and vegetables."

Leo was speechless for a moment, and then Mei suddenly said: "Sir, take out this knife and have a look. Since this knife is a bit strange, and it was sent by your master, there may be something strange about it!"

Even if Mei didn't say anything, Wu Wuyu planned to take a closer look.Although this knife should not be the horizontal knife Wu Yu is looking forward to most, even if it is a Yi knife, such a strange Yi knife is worthy of Wu Yu's careful study.

Although Wu Wuyu said it was a ritual knife, he was not sure about it, because the ritual knife was a two-handed sword with a long handle, but the handle of this knife was too short. If the ring head was not still there, Fifth Jade even thought that the handle of the knife was broken.Speaking of the ring head, the ring head of this knife is also different from the general Yi Dao.The ring head of a normal instrument knife is very large, but the ring head of this knife is very small, which is somewhat similar to the legendary horizontal knife.But even so, Wu Wuyu didn't know that this knife was a horizontal knife.As mentioned above, the structure of the blade has already determined that this sword is not suitable for actual combat, and the sword that cannot be used in actual combat is of course not a horizontal sword.

Fifth Jade bent down, and slowly grabbed the "Ritual Knife".Inexplicably, Wu Yu's heart began to beat violently, and such a simple action suddenly became frozen in the eyes of Leo and Mei.

Wu Wuyu's hands were slender but powerful. Seeing him grabbing the knife, Leo and Mei who were watching were relieved, followed by wry smiles.

"It's just a handful of antiques, why did I suddenly become nervous..." Mei thought to herself mockingly.

But then, when Wu Wuyu grabbed the scabbard, a sudden change appeared!Wu Wuyu's pupils shrank suddenly, and then a huge spiritual power burst out from Wu Wuyu's body, and then the black hair was like a waterfall, dancing in the air with the fluctuation of spiritual power, time seemed to be at this moment All stagnated.Leo and Mei looked at the Fifth Jade who looked like a demon in front of them in amazement. There were so many doubts in their hearts, but they couldn't even open their mouths.

Fifth Jade stared at the "Ritual Knife" in his hand, his right eye was yin and yang, and his left eye was reincarnated. On the one hand, he was frightened by resentment, and on the other hand, he was filled with a sea of ​​blood! (To be continued..)
