Chapter 46 He is a big boss
Chen Ruotong picked up the candlestick, bent down and looked at the knife intently. The more she looked at it, the more frightened she became: the shape of this knife combines the characteristics of the Tang knife and the Shaolin plum blossom knife. It is light, narrow, and slightly curved, which is easy to carry and attack at medium distance. The steel is of excellent quality. The higher the position, the purer the knife material is, and the casting process includes more processes. This knife is longer than a single knife and slightly shorter than an ordinary long sword. It has a thick back and a thin blade, like a razor. The whole blade has an arc. The handle is quite long and can be used with both hands. It is not only conducive to foot combat but also suitable for horse combat. This is a unique sword of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei - Xiuchun Knife! And there is a Qiao character on the handle. This is definitely not a new knife, but an old object that has been precipitated by history. It can be seen from the accessories. In addition, Qiao Zien's superb kung fu is definitely not something that modern people can practice.
It has been nearly four months since she traveled to the ancient times, and her appreciation of antiques, calligraphy and paintings has improved.
How did she know so much? Because she loved watching the TV series "Under the Power" the most, and watched it twice. She also watched martial arts bloggers' fighting videos, especially the Embroidered Spring Blade. She didn't watch the TV series and short videos in vain.
She took a breath of cold air. Could it be that Qiao Zien was a time traveler from the Ming Dynasty? According to her understanding, the previous dynasty of the Daliang Dynasty was the Sui Dynasty. Logically, the next dynasty should be the Tang Dynasty. However, it was not Li Yuan who usurped the throne, but Liang Yaze, another distant nephew of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. The folk customs of the Daliang Dynasty now are very similar to those of the early Song Dynasty. So that means Qiao Zien should be an ancient person more than 500 years later. For her, he is still an ancient person. He still doesn't recognize the products in her space! Then she doesn't need to make friends with him and show her cards! She can just pretend not to know! She won't stupidly ask others: Eh? You are also a time traveler, a fellow traveler! Wouldn't that expose herself?
In just a short while, her mind was open and she came up with a lot of ideas.
After she finished looking at the knife, she pushed the candlestick away, fearing that Qiao Zien would see her face without makeup and find out that she was a girl. She didn't know that even if she didn't put on makeup, she would still look like a handsome young man.
She was overthinking. Qiao Zien didn't even look at her. He was looking down as if he was thinking about how to answer her question.
She sat on the chair and said solemnly: "Brother Zien, tell me about your knife!" She touched the back of the knife.
Qiao Zien paused and lowered his head and said, "This knife is an heirloom. It has killed countless enemies and carries a murderous aura. Don't let it hurt you."
"Yes, it kills without shedding blood. There is not even a drop of blood on the knife. It is a good knife. I am sleepy and want to sleep. You should go back and have some rest too. We can talk about it tomorrow!" She made a gesture of invitation.
Qiao Zien didn't expect that Chen Guchuan would stop talking after just three sentences, which was beyond his expectations.
So they both went to sleep.
Chen Ruotong thought she already knew the answer, and there was no need to ask more questions. Even if she wanted to tell him the truth, he couldn't tell her. Could he say to her: I traveled from the Ming Dynasty to this dynasty? Is it possible? Who would be stupid enough to tell you such a secret? Forget it, knowing that he is a top student, a martial artist, an invisible boss, and can protect himself is enough. The key is that he can protect her, a local rich man. She has found the key point of today - a free bodyguard, and a martial arts expert. That's great! Can she rest assured? Can she make more money boldly? She wants to go astray!
Qiao Zien returned to the room and put away the sword. The series of question marks he was waiting for did not appear. He had no chance to explain everything he was ready to explain. Well, it was not that he did not want to explain, but that she did not want to listen. This was not his fault, and she should not blame him in the future.
In the morning, Chen Ruotong got up early and tidied herself in the space. Just as she was about to leave the space, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. She squatted on the ground, holding her stomach. Was it because she ate too much ice cream or had diarrhea because she ate too much watermelon? When she wanted to run to the bathroom, a stream of liquid flowed out of her lower body. Ah! Damn it, this familiar feeling. She waved her hand and a bag of sanitary napkins appeared in her hand. It seemed that this was the first time she had her period in this body!
She changed into a light black outfit and black cloth shoes. She didn't wear her hair in a high ponytail because it was hot. She tied her hair into a bun, put on a white jade crown, and held a folding fan. Why did she look so uncouth?
Old Man Chen and Qiao Zien were already sitting in the dining room, waiting for Chen Ruotong to eat.
Old man Chen looked at Chen Ruotong kindly, squinting his eyes and said, "My grandson looks really good today!"
"That's right, Grandpa, I look good every day!" Chen Ruotong fanned herself lightly and glanced at Qiao Zien.
"Grandpa, did you sleep well last night?" Chen Ruotong asked with concern. She was afraid that grandpa would be scared and worried if he heard the sound of weapons.
"Grandpa sleeps very soundly. He doesn't get up all night. He sleeps so well!"
"That's good. It proves that grandpa is in good health. Eat more. The food cooked by Xiao Chunhua is delicious." Chen Ruotong picked up a meat bun for old man Chen.
Qiao Zien remained silent the entire time. He ate his breakfast quietly and listened to the grandfather and grandson chatting.
After dinner, Qiao Zien went to find Chen Ruotong.
Chen Ruotong was puzzled: "Why don't you go to the academy?"
Qiao Zien smiled faintly and said, "Well, it's hot, and the summer vacation is over. I can go to the building to help out during the half-month vacation."
Chen Ruotong's eyes lit up: "That's great, then I can go to the farm with Grandpa to escape the summer heat!"
Qiao Zien was confused. He was supposed to accompany her in Zhenpin Pavilion to protect her, so why did she run away?
Qiao Zien said seriously: "Then I will go too. I have to protect you. It was so dangerous last night!"
"Yeah, that thief is quite skilled in martial arts, he's a martial arts master!"
"So, this is not an ordinary thief. He stole not only money, but also other important things. There are many wealthy businessmen who are richer than you. Why is he targeting you? Haven't you thought about the reason?" Qiao Zien looked solemn.
Chen Ruotong fell into deep thought: Yes, with such high kung fu, he can steal money from anywhere. Even if he wants to steal rare items, he can go to Zhenpin Pavilion to steal glassware and porcelain! The bodyguards of Zhenpin Pavilion may not be his opponents, so why come to steal from me?
Chen Ruotong opened the fan with a snap, and thought while fanning herself. She suddenly looked at the fan. Could it be this?
She thought back to the people and things she encountered in the past two days. Suddenly, the young man in blue who bought the cup yesterday appeared in front of her. When he came in, he glanced at her, then looked at the fan in her hand, and then simply bought the cup and left. His purpose was not the cup, but the fan! Yes, he must have come for the fan, and this fan must have a secret. The man in black stuck the fan on her package last time for a purpose, because he was afraid that the man in red would catch up with him and take the fan away. So which side did the man in black yesterday belong to? Was he the one who was escaping, or the one who was chasing?
Chen Ruotong was full of imagination again!
