On the first floor of Wanxiang Building, Teng Qingshan stood with his sword in his arms, not looking at the guards at all.
Boom, boom...
One of the guards quickly went upstairs to inform the owner of the Vientiane Building. The Vientiane Building has three floors. There are many counters on the first and second floors. Only the third floor is forbidden for outsiders to enter. The first room next to the handrail of the staircase in the Vientiane Building is where the owner usually stays.
"Uncle! Uncle!" The young guard rushed in.
"Yelling, what does it look like?" Inside the room, there was a middle-aged man in a white robe, who was painting with splashed ink.
"Uncle, a master came downstairs, it seems that he is a very ruthless master." The guard said in succession.
"A master?" The elegant middle-aged man frowned slightly, put down his paintbrush, and looked at the guard, "Be more specific."
The guard said carefully: "Just now, this swordsman was unwilling to unload his weapon, and directly sent the two junior sisters at the door to Zhenfei. And he dismissed our senior brothers. We dare not make decisions without authorization. And he also Said, I'm looking for you, uncle, for something important. So... "
"Don't act recklessly." The elegant middle-aged man said repeatedly, "You have practiced inner strength for more than ten years, you have little experience, and you can deal with ordinary people. You are still far behind those ruthless masters. You go and ask him to come up. You let You senior brother and second senior brother also come up together."
"Yes, uncle." The guard stepped back immediately.
The elegant middle-aged man was very puzzled: "I don't know where the character came from, but let's take a look first." The Vientiane Gate has no ambition to rule the world, but their "Vientiane Building" has opened all over the cities of Kyushu. According to the size of the city, the size of the shop, the number of masters varies.
Like the Vientiane Building, only this host is the core disciple of the Vientiane Sect, the peak acquired master.
More than half of the manpower of the entire sect of the Vientiane Sect is distributed to the various Vientiane Buildings in the land of Kyushu. Also because the Vientiane Gate is too rich, it is easy to recruit people.
"Boom, boom..."
Footsteps sounded.
A seemingly young swordsman walked in with two guards. The swordsman locked his eyes on the elegant middle-aged man sitting at the desk.
Observing the person's steps, eyes, and demeanor, this host who knows countless people has his own judgment in an instant: "This is a master who kills and cuts decisively. Master." The landlord is very clear that different experiences will make people have different temperaments.
For example, the rich and the rich are often complimented by others, and they have different manners when talking and laughing.
And a person with no strength, dare to act like Teng Qingshan in the Vientiane Tower? I'm afraid I'm surrounded by a group of internal strength masters, I guess my heart is beating drums, and my demeanor is different.
And when a master does this, it's not playing prestige, but a master's demeanor!
Those who have no strength dare not unload their weapons and are arrogant, they may be thrown out with their arms and legs broken. But the masters don't unload their weapons, but the Vientiane Tower still entertains them warmly.
The same thing, different people do it, the result is completely different.
"Huo Yan at the Vientiane Gate!" said the elegant middle-aged man, clasping his hands.
"Qin Lang!" Teng Qingshan said, his younger brother was called 'Qin Hong' in his previous life, and his killer code name in the dark world was 'Wolf', so Teng Qingshan made up this pseudonym - Qin Lang.
Huo Yan, the proprietor of the Wanxiang Building, searched quickly in his mind, but he didn't find such a person as Qin Lang. However, there are countless powerful people in the land of Kyushu, and Huo Yan didn't dare to neglect. I met a master, brother Qin Lang, please sit down."
Only then did Teng Qingshan show a slight smile, and sat down directly with a golden knife.
"In Yicheng, it's really hard to meet internal strength masters. But... the Vientiane Gate is indeed a great school, and many valuables are placed there, and these fledgling disciples are allowed to guard it. I admire this courage." Teng Aoyama also showed a smile on his face, and said simply.
The expressions of the two guards changed slightly, but they didn't dare to speak out.
Huo Yan said with a light smile: "These disciples are just for them to experience. In this world, all the masters generally give us a little bit of shame in the Vientiane Sect."
At this time, the maid also served tea.
"I don't know, Brother Qin Lang, what's the matter with my Vientiane Building?" Huo Yan said.
Teng Qingshan directly took out the Ten Thousand Years Cold Iron from his bosom, put it on the low tea table with a bang, and said with a faint smile: "I wandered around the world, honed my saber skills, not long ago, I happened to be in a dangerous place, and got this piece Wannian Hantie! Therefore, I want to make a deal with your Vientiane Building!"
"Wannian cold iron? Purple light cold iron?" Huo Yan's heart trembled, and he even covered it with his hand to see the halo even after careful identification.
"Sure enough, it really is ten thousand years cold iron, and the weight is right!" Huo Yan felt the heavy weight in his hands, and then he shook it violently with his inner strength. The ten thousand years cold iron was not damaged at all. This Huo Yan was completely sure that this stone was indeed ten thousand years cold iron.
This Huo Yan glanced at Teng Qingshan and couldn't help but think in his heart: "This Qin Lang, Wannian Hantie just took out treasures like this at will. It really is a master of art and bold!"
Most people have such treasures, and it is too late to hide them.
Huo Yan has seen that some people sell treasures in the Vientiane Building, and they will play a lot of tricks, as if they are worried about being robbed of the treasures. But real masters don't care, because masters are confident!
If you dare to reach out and snatch it, I can cut off your hand and take back the treasure!
"Moreover, treasures such as Wannian Hantie are born in extremely cold regions. In the North Sea, those who can obtain Wannianhantie are generally masters. This Qin Lang, it is said that he got it in a dangerous place. Well, pregnancy The place of ten thousand years of cold iron is of course a dangerous place. It seems that this young swordsman is very powerful." Huo Yan is very clear that one cannot judge a person's strength by appearance.
Because internal strength masters don't look old, young people who look like twenty years old are probably in their thirties or forties.
For example, Huo Yan, who looks forty years old, is actually in his sixties.
"Brother Qin Lang, this is indeed Ten Thousand Years Cold Iron. I don't know, what price do you want?" Huo Yan said, the two guards standing aside looked at each other when he said this, obviously a little hot-eyed.
"Bid?" Teng Qingshan chuckled, and looked at Huo Yan, "Purple light cold iron is a treasure for refining weapons, will I exchange it for silver?"
Huo Yan smiled awkwardly.
"I don't sell it, I just trade it!" Teng Qingshan looked at Huo Yan.
"I don't know what treasure to change?" Huo Yan asked.
"Star pattern steel!" Teng Qingshan said, "My Wannian cold iron weighs seven catties and two taels. I am going to exchange it for 110 catties of star pattern steel. Of course, the price of Wannian cold iron is far more than this. For the difference, you use gold Or bank notes to make up." Teng Qingshan said very simply.
Huo Yan pondered and said: "Seven catties and two taels... My Vientiane Building can give you 110 catties of star-pattern steel, plus a golden ticket of 500 taels of salt! Brother Qin Lang, what do you think of the price?"
According to the price of one catty of purple cold iron and twenty catties of gold. The price Huo Yan offered was much higher.
"This ten-thousand-year-old cold iron is much more valuable than that star pattern steel. It has a price but no market! The price you gave must be lower." Teng Qingshan said with a light smile.
Tens of thousands of years of cold iron, invincible, this characteristic, many internal strength masters dream of having such a weapon. Since there is a price but no market, the real transaction price of Wannian cold iron, a catty of Ziguang cold iron, should far exceed twenty catties of gold. Moreover, the selling price of star pattern steel in Vientiane Building is "one tael of star pattern steel and one tael of gold", so the purchase cost of Vientiane Building is that star pattern steel is cheaper than gold.
"This..." Huo Yan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, "110 catties of star-pattern steel, plus a gold ticket of 600 taels of salt. This is the highest price I can offer."
"Very good." Teng Qingshan nodded, "However, please exchange this gold ticket for gold bars. I don't like using gold tickets."
"That's no problem." Huo Yan said, when you go to the bank to exchange, you need to pay a little storage fee, and the Vientiane Building is not so fussy about it, "However, Brother Qin Lang, you should also understand that this is in the Vientiane Building in Yicheng. , there is not so much star grain steel in stock.”
"I understand this." Teng Qingshan smiled lightly, "How long will it take you, are you ready?"
"I'll send someone to Jiangning County, which is 300 miles away overnight, and they will definitely be ready by this time tomorrow," Huo Yan said.
"You have a place to stay here. I'll wait here." Teng Qingshan said with a light smile.
The two guards looked at each other, secretly admiring them. Dare to live in the Vientiane Building boldly, not afraid of killing and looting secretly in the Vientiane Building, it is indeed a bold person with high skills.
"That's no problem." Huo Yan said with a smile, "Brother Qin Lang is still yours to keep this ten thousand year cold iron. We will trade again at this time tomorrow."
*****
Behind the Vientiane Building, there is a large courtyard and a large number of houses. The guards, maids, and host Huo Yan of Vientiane Building all live here. Teng Qingshan was also arranged in a very delicately furnished room. If it is a big inn, this kind of room is definitely a Tianzihao room.
In the evening, the Vientiane Building was closed.
In the empty courtyard behind the Vientiane Building, many guards are practicing martial arts here.
"Brother Qin Lang, look, how is their swordsmanship?" Huo Yan and Teng Qingshan stood side by side in the corridor.
Teng Qingshan glanced at it and said with a smile: "The swordsmanship of Wanxiang Sect is very extraordinary. I have seen the masters of Wanxiang Sect. Their swordsmanship is as fast as lightning, swift and fierce. But the swordsmanship of these disciples is nothing but shape. Meaning! Probably, I haven’t gone through the real life and death test.”
Those men and women all looked at Teng Qingshan with a hint of resentment.
Young people are very arrogant, how can they be satisfied when they are judged like this
"Brother Qin Lang, why don't you give some pointers to these underachievers?" Huo Yan laughed.
"I haven't exercised for a long time." Teng Qingshan walked down the corridor with a chuckle, Teng Qingshan didn't want some thieves to appear tonight, so he simply showed his hand now.
The leading guard elder brother cupped his hands and said, "Please."
"You guys go up together." Teng Qingshan said indifferently.
The faces of those seniors changed drastically, this 'Qin Lang' was so rampant! Huo Yan, who was in the corridor, changed his expression, and then laughed loudly: "Brother Qin Lang's opportunity to give advice, if you miss it, you will never have it again, just ask Brother Qin Lang for advice, and you won't be ashamed if you lose."
"Look at the sword." A young girl who was knocked into the air by Teng Qingshan at noon was already full of anger in her heart, and she shouted directly. The elder brother followed at the same time, and the long sword in his hand turned into three sword shadows, covering Teng Qingshan's head.
The two hit together.
Teng Qingshan stood at the same spot, watching the two long swords stabbing towards him, his eyes were fixed, his right hand was like lightning.
Clang! Clang!
With two crisp sounds, the two long swords were bounced off at the same time and fell to the ground.
The girl and the senior brother both had trembling right hands and looked at Teng Qingshan in shock. The brothers and sisters around who saw this scene were even more stunned. The eldest brother is the most powerful among them, and the girl is also a master of inner strength. The opponent didn't even draw the sword, but just flicked the sharp sword away with his fingers.
What a strong finger! What a keen eye!
"Stabbing the sword, your heart is unsteady, your hands are not steady, and you still want to kill the enemy? You don't need to practice complicated swordsmanship now, and stabbing the sword a thousand times a day is the most basic." Teng Qingshan glanced at the girl, and immediately Looking at the elder brother, "As for you, you need to lay a solid foundation first. The power is distributed to the three sword shadows. The only consequence is that the power of the three sword shadows is weak! For those who are weaker than you, you don't need to use this method." You can win even with one move. And those who are stronger than you can tell the reality of this sword technique at a glance."
The eyes of this group of young men and women were bright, they looked at Teng Qingshan with some admiration, and listened carefully to these comments and pointers. They are only peripheral disciples of the Wanxiang Sect, and it is rare for them to receive expert guidance. In their eyes, they already regarded Teng Qingshan as a super expert. A master stronger than their master.
Flicking two swords without drawing the sword, this strength is definitely the peak of the day after tomorrow.
Teng Qingshan was a master of Xingyi in his previous life, and in this life, he reached the realm of the unity of human and spear before he was ten years old. I don't know how much better than these men and women who have not experienced much blood.
"Haha, brother Qin Lang's fingering is simple and fast, but very powerful. I really don't know how sharp brother Qin Lang's sword technique is." Huo Yan laughed loudly, "It's great to know Brother Qin Lang. Huo Yan is also very happy, the banquet is ready, I will definitely have a few drinks with Brother Qin Lang."
Teng Qingshan smiled and walked away with Huo Yan, leaving only the group of young men and women discussing and amazed.
