golden escape

On the saber in the box, there is a scabbard made of unknown animal skin, and some words are engraved on the scabbard, which looks extremely delicate. .

The person in charge was wearing white gloves, and slowly pulled out the long sword from the sheath. Suddenly, under the light, a cold light appeared on the sword. Those who came into contact with the cold light couldn't help but squint their eyes. Fang You seemed not to have been affected by anything. With the same influence, he looked at this so-called Napoleon saber faintly.

This long sword is said to be a sword, but it is actually called a scimitar similar to a sword. It is different from Huaxia's straight sword. This sword is half-moon shaped with some patterns engraved on it. It is more delicate than the scabbard just now. And it looks very beautiful.

Now that he has comprehended the golden escape technique, he can see the condition of the saber completely from the inside to the outside. Judging from the color and concentration of the aura contained in it, it should be as the person in charge of the Louvre said. Something from the Napoleonic era, and very fine.

Fang You is familiar with the history of various countries, and is no stranger to the famous French emperor Napoleon. Although Napoleon is the most famous politician and ruler in France, his family is an Italian nobleman. He was born in a French state. On the island, he was sent by his father to a famous military academy in France for education.

But deep down in Napoleon's heart, he always thought he was a foreigner, and he hoped that one day the island he lived in could be read from France. After the French Revolution, the political situation was unpredictable, and Napoleon participated in this It was the first time in European military history that he was promoted from a major to a brigadier general.

Later, entrusted by the Governor of Paris, he successfully suppressed the armed rebellion of other parties. Overnight, he was promoted from brigadier general to lieutenant general and served as the commander of the Paris garrison.

In the days that followed, he brilliantly applied various military strategies to actual combat. In Italy, he commanded the army to repel the first anti-French coalition formed by famous generals of the Austrian Empire many times and won the victory. , And forced the other side to sign an armistice agreement in favor of France.

With Napoleon's continuous victories, he also became a hero in the hearts of the French people, but he was suspected by those in power and sent to the Middle East for an expedition. During his expedition, the anti-French alliance in Europe had already been formed. After the defeat, when he returned to France, he was treated as a savior. The politicians were eager for Napoleon to break the anti-French alliance this time.

However, after Napoleon returned to France, he launched a coup d'état and succeeded, becoming the consul of the French Republic and actually the leader of the French First Empire.

After that, Napoleon was crowned emperor, and defeated the anti-French alliance organized by European countries several times in succession, and controlled a large number of countries in Europe.

But Napoleon was not satisfied. He always dreamed of truly ruling the whole of Europe, and only Russia was not under his control in Europe. Only by defeating Russia could he truly conquer Britain. However, in Russia, Napoleon led an army of 50. Less than 3 people went to France.

The Russian ruler took this opportunity to once again form an anti-French alliance, and finally captured Paris. Napoleon announced his unconditional surrender. After abdicating, Napoleon was exiled to a small island and continued to retain the emperor. Unfortunately, the territory was limited to this small island. .

In the end, although taking advantage of an opportunity to successfully restore and return to France to continue the emperor's career, he was defeated at Waterloo in less than a hundred days, and the soldiers scattered and fled. Napoleon's Hundred Days Dynasty completely collapsed.

So much so that after that, Waterloo became a synonym for fiasco, which shows the extent of the defeat in this battle.

This time, the winner of the anti-French alliance was not so polite to Napoleon, and was directly exiled to a volcanic island in England, and never gave him the title of emperor, but Napoleon never had a chance to leave here alive. On the island until his death, it can be said that he has become a desperate loser from an invincible emperor.

The reason why France has so many cultural relics now is thanks to Napoleon's continuous conquest of various countries.

When Fang You recalled the history of Napoleon's life, the person in charge of the Louvre held a long sword and said proudly: "Emperor Napoleon owned countless swords in his life, and each sword bears his glory. , one of the swords used in the famous battle appeared at an auction a few years ago, setting a record in the history of cold weapon auctions, with a transaction price of 640 million US dollars. From this, it can be seen that the saber of Napoleon the Great Precious and valuable."

Hearing this, Fang You suddenly smiled and nodded. Sometimes the significance of a cultural relic is far greater than its own value. Napoleon's sword has been proved once again. Napoleon's auction price was 600 The multi-million-dollar saber was only used to boost morale in a battle, but now it has become a valuable sword.

More than 600 million U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to nearly 4000 million yuan in RMB. This is already comparable to some swords handed down from ancient China. Fang You once remembered that at a sword exhibition held in Hong Kong, one of the swords used by the court of the Ming Dynasty The Longquan sword is worth 2000 million RMB.

If it were used by a random emperor in the Ming Dynasty, then its price would not be too much to double.

"The saber was only worn by Napoleon the Great for a short time. After the victory in the war, he gave that saber to one of his subordinates, and the saber we took out was the one he wore the most in his life. With a long sword, he won one victory after another, it can be said that this saber has witnessed the glorious history of our French empire."

"This saber was forged by a famous craftsman at that time, and the whole body was made of fine steel. The level of smelting in France at that time had reached its peak. It can be said that this saber of Napoleon the Great is extremely sharp, and its level is no less than that of the Chinese legend. A sword that cuts iron like mud."

In their eyes, Napoleon the Great was extremely tall. Some of the swords he wore were just for decoration, but this saber was a real weapon. It had been used on countless battlefields and killed countless enemies.

In their view, this is not a provocation, but a matter of course. It was a mistake for them to take out cultural relics from other countries before, but now, they don't think that their country's smelting technology will be lower than China's. .

Hearing their words that were obviously compared with the Huaxia sword, the eyes of all the Huaxia cultural relics scholars couldn't help showing a deep smile. This time they didn't bring a sword, but now they brought a sword To, should not be said to be two famous swords.

As for Napoleon's child's saber, he dared to show it off to them. These French people really didn't let go of showing off whenever they had the opportunity. They wanted to overwhelm other countries, but they didn't have the ability to do anything.

Their ancient Chinese smelting technology cannot be achieved even by modern technology. A western saber dares to compare with their Chinese.

Each of China's top ten famous swords is extremely precious and miraculous, but they only existed in myths and legends before. Since the Warring States Period, there has been no trace of them appearing again. Now, Fang You discovered Chengying Sword, which also bought One get one free gift with a light sword, the magic of the two swords is invisible and shadowless, the sharpness of these two swords alone can't be compared with all the cold weapons in the west .

Especially the sharpness of the light, they have a deep understanding, can emit sword energy, and use the sword energy to chop objects. They have also experimented with objects such as steel, just because they are afraid that this ancient famous sword will be damaged. Just letting Hanguang's sword energy cut it would not allow Hanguang's body to touch the steel, but it turned out that their worries were completely unnecessary.

The 5000-year civilization of China is mostly in the era of cold weapons, and there are constant wars. As a famous weapon, the sword is often used in actual combat, not just as an ornament. The top ten famous swords represent the highest level of sword casting in China. It is undoubtedly a joke that the sword forged with countless painstaking efforts cannot kill the enemy, but can only be decorated.

When going on the battlefield, you must collide with other people's weapons. Most weapons can collide violently without damage. Some famous swords can even cut the enemy's weapons in half.

As one of the top ten famous swords, Chengying also has Hanguang, which is sharper than Chengying. Although it is known as the sword that does not kill people, its sharpness is by no means weaker than other swords. It can cut steel with sword energy, and A block made of steel, cut in half, the incision is very smooth, comparable to laser cutting, not far behind.

Sword energy can achieve such an effect, and if the real sword body of the Hanguang Sword is used, its power is even more unimaginable.

It was a wrong move for these French people to take out this Napoleon's saber today. A small western saber is not qualified to be an opponent of China's top ten famous swords.

Hearing the words of the person in charge of the Louvre, Fang You smiled slightly, "Oh, Mr. El, so it seems that you have seen Huaxia's sword that cuts iron like mud, and fought with this Napoleon's sword. compared."

The person in charge named El trembled inadvertently when he heard Fang You's words, and then said quickly: "Mr. Huaxia has always been rumored to have a sword that cuts iron like mud, but we have never seen it, so today it is just used as a metaphor."

In terms of the music just now, they were very shocked. Even if they now believe that the music culture of China is far higher than that of Western music, they have no objection, but this Napoleon's saber does represent the highest level of smelting in France. , Napoleon the Great used it to cut off the necks of many people easily. The hardness of the bones can be imagined. With the current knives, it takes many strokes to cut them off, but this saber can cut off the necks in one stroke. Its sharpness It can be seen.

As the subjects of Emperor Napoleon, how could they directly admit that Huaxia's sword is sharper than their sword of Napoleon the Great? What's more, they have never seen the sword that cuts iron like mud that Huaxia has always said, and belittled themselves like this , It is impossible for them to do things that elevate others.

"Oh, are you really sure that Huaxia doesn't have a sword that cuts iron like mud?" Fang You said softly with a faint smile on his face.

El, the person in charge of the Louvre, nodded, "Mr. Fang, I can't give you an accurate answer to this question. I can't directly deny that Huaxia doesn't have one, but we haven't seen it before, even if some Huaxia swords are very sharp. , but it is far from reaching the level of cutting iron like mud, and, compared with the saber of Napoleon the Great, there is still some gap."

Hearing this, Wang Lao and the others couldn't bear it anymore. As soon as Fang You made a good move, this guy went straight into it. It is very rare, but it does not mean that this kind of sword does not exist.

In China, cutting iron like mud is a symbol of a sword. Although many people have never seen it, they have always believed that such a sword exists, but in Western countries, such a sword belongs to the Arabian Nights.

It is not uncommon for a cold weapon to cut steel. Even an ordinary knife can cut a small piece of steel with countless swipes. Knives will also be seriously damaged, and cutting iron like mud means that cutting on steel is as smooth as cutting in mud, without any hindrance, which is impossible at all. The speed of chopping on steel may be able to do this.

You must know that the bullets fired by powerful firearms can penetrate very thick steel plates, but to cut iron like mud with the strength of ordinary people, in their eyes, it can only be achieved by using technology.

"Oh, I see. I haven't seen the sword in the Chinese legend. This is a matter of your fate. I just want to ask, if I take out a sword and chop it with the sword of your so-called Emperor Napoleon Let's see who is sharper, I wonder if you can agree, or if you have the courage to agree." Fang You still had a faint smile on his face, and said in a casual tone.

He is the master of Chengying and Hanguangjian. Even Chu Lao and Chen Zongyi, who are often in contact with these two swords, do not have a deeper understanding of these two swords than him.

The sharpness of China's top ten famous swords is far beyond everyone's imagination. Chengying and Hanguang's two swords even produced spiritual surnames, and they did not accept other people's inner strength. Saber is incomparable.

"Here, Mr. Fang, we can't decide on this. Is the cultural relic you are going to take out next also a sword?" A cultural relic may really be a sword that cuts iron like mud. Moreover, as the person in charge of this event, he only has the right to display the cultural relics, and has no right to dispose of the cultural relics at all.

Fang You looked at these people and smiled faintly, "Oh, then you dared to compare with Huaxia swords before, it was just empty talk, my next cultural relic is naturally a sword, and it is one of the top ten famous swords in China .”

Ten Famous Swords, upon hearing Fang You's words, the faces of the person in charge of the Louvre Museum who were a little confident before and all the experts changed, a little surprised and uncertain.

They have all heard of China's four famous pianos, not to mention the ten most famous swords in China. According to the information they got, each of these ten swords has a magical story. Just a simple function.

But as far as they know, these ten famous swords in China are only passed down in legends, and they have never been reproduced in the 2000 years after the Warring States Period. It's just a legend, no matter how powerful and precious it is in the legend, it's just an illusion, and it can't be seen in reality.

If it is said that the Four Great Famous Qins have appeared in historical materials, then the Top Ten Famous Swords have only appeared in some mysterious novels, but now Fang You is saying that the sword he is going to take out is actually one of the Ten Famous Swords. One, this makes them a little hard to believe, do those ten magical swords really exist in this world.

Thinking about these words, and looking at Fang You's calm and confident appearance, the person in charge of the Louvre hurriedly said: "Mr. Appreciate your ten famous swords, let us take a look at what the ten famous swords that have been passed down in legends look like."

They may have had a comparison before, but after hearing Fang You's words about the ten famous swords, they never dared to say such words in their hearts. One of the four famous zithers is so magical. The top ten famous swords in the book will definitely be more miraculous.

They were a little helpless, and finally regained some confidence through the cultural relics of the French mainland, and now they have been beaten back to their original shape. If they had known that Fang You's cultural relics would contain ten famous swords, they would not have taken out this sword if they were killed. Come saber.

Now, they can only hope that Fang You can forgive them and give up the idea of ​​fighting swords, otherwise, they really can't guarantee whether the sword of Emperor Napoleon can match the sharpness of China's top ten famous swords.

"When you don't really understand a country's culture, don't jump to conclusions at will. The crystallization of Xia's 5000-year culture is not what you think it doesn't exist, so it won't exist. My previous words are still valid. If you think about what I want next If you have any doubts about the ten famous swords you took out, you can compare them at any time to compare their sharpness." Fang You smiled lightly, and then looked away from them.

If he hadn't intended to teach these arrogant people a lesson, with his character, he wouldn't have discussed with them here at all.
