"My dear little lord, the needle is not moving."
A man in black came close to the boy and whispered.
The young man frowned, took the compass, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.
how so?
A few days ago, the needle suddenly turned and pointed to the south of Beijiang State. He thought that there was only one famous swordsmith nearby, Xiao Ning, so he brought his men to Chuling County to wait and see.
The pointer finally started moving again just now, why did it suddenly stop again?
What the hell did that woman Xu Haitang give him? Was she teasing him?
Isn't this a pure waste of his time?
Oh, I must teach her a lesson when I get back.
The young man exerted force, and the delicate compass instantly broke into pieces.
His eyes were full of hostility, and the silver lotus between his eyebrows turned translucent because of his anger, and his delicate facial features were stained with a thin red of anger.
The situation here was all caught in Xie Ling and Gu Wei's eyes.
Gu Wei's five senses were extraordinary. With his cold eyes narrowed, he immediately understood everything. He put his arm around Xie Ling's slender waist and said softly, "My dear, these plums are really sour. Can we not buy them?"
Xie Ling's reaction was also first-rate. She immediately held her waist and said, "But I just like sour food. Buy it, buy it."
One of the men in black was about to draw his sword when he saw the noise coming from this side, but the silver lotus boy raised his hand to stop him. The boy said in a cold voice, "Didn't you see that she was wearing the Fuyao hairpin?"
The man in black followed the boy's gaze and was stunned.
"It's really the Fuyao hairpin. I was blind. May I ask, little lord, are we still looking for the black iron?"
"Divide into three groups and search the area. Leave if you don't find anything. Leng Hu was killed by someone because of his own incompetence. Why should we clean up his mess?"
The young man was already unhappy about his schedule being interrupted, and now he seemed a little perfunctory and gave the order in a cold voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, all the men in black around him dispersed.
The young man walked over and said coldly, "Get out of the way."
Gu Wei frowned, "May I ask what this young master is doing here? Are you buying plums as well?"
The boy narrowed his eyes and said, "Just move aside if I tell you to. Stop talking nonsense."
Xie Ling secretly squeezed Gu Wei's hand.
Gu Wei turned sideways and made way for the young man.
The boy pushed the wooden door open roughly, and the little orange cat jumped over happily as usual, landing right at the boy's feet.
Xie Ling narrowed her eyes, and the gun in her wide sleeves quietly swung out.
The boy's eyes were still cold, but his feet gently pushed the little orange cat away.
The little orange cat pounced over again, but the violent boy didn't get angry. He just glanced around the yard and closed the door when he found no one.
After turning around, his eyes swept across the white jade hairpin in Xie Ling's hair calmly, and then swept across her face indifferently, before returning to where he had just stood, waiting for his subordinates to arrive.
Xie Ling and Gu Wei looked at each other and pretended to leave.
Then he went around to another alley and quietly observed what was happening here.
All the boy's subordinates came back soon, and everyone shook their heads.
The young man raised his eyebrows coldly, "Then go back and report that you can't find it. I have to go to Tonghua City soon and ask the Palace Master to find someone else to complete Leng Hu's mission. I won't play with you anymore."
After saying that, he used Qinggong to quickly disappear into the alley.
The men in black behind him looked at each other and then all disappeared.
A group of people came and went in a hurry.
Gu Wei sensed that their presence had completely disappeared, and then he came out with Xie Ling.
He fixed his eyes on the white jade hairpin in Xie Ling's hair and said calmly, "This thing is not ordinary."
Xie Ling also touched it.
A little puzzled.
What is the secret behind this white jade hairpin that Caiyi gave her?
But no matter what the secret is, I can only wait until I see Caiyi next time to find out. There is no harm in it anyway.
The two pushed open the door and entered another courtyard from the woodshed on the left, which was Xiao Ning's sword-making yard.
Fortunately, Xiao Ning's yard is in the secret room at the back, otherwise he would not be able to fool this young man today.
Xiao Ning had changed into a pure black outfit and was smelting iron.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two people come in, but still didn't say anything, as he was always taciturn.
It was Gu Wei who asked, "Mr. Xiao, did you do anything to the black iron?"
Xiao Ning said calmly: "My name is Li Muchun. Have those people left?"
Roll up your sleeves, lift a bucket of molten iron and add it to the furnace.
Gu Wei choked. It turned out that he knew everything.
Xiao Ning raised his eyes and looked at Gu Wei indifferently.
He was not a three-year-old child, so he knew that those were words of comfort spoken by Gu Wei in order to prevent him from blaming himself.
But he still felt very warmed.
Then, he smiled, which was rare, to express his gratitude.
But he probably hadn't laughed for a long time, so this laugh looked a little weird.
Xie Ling, who was standing by, couldn't help laughing when she saw Xiao Ning's fake smile, and quickly changed the subject: "Yes, that group of people have left. We want to ask if you did anything, why they suddenly couldn't find any trace of the black iron?"
Xiao Ning put away his stiff smile and pointed to a book beside him. "When I was looking for something just now, I suddenly remembered this old book at home. I got it from a Taoist priest. I remember there was a method in it that could interfere with the magnetic field, so I tried it just now."
After a pause, he continued, "When I forge the sword, I will also do something in your sword to ensure that those people can no longer find you through the black iron."
"My sword?" Xie Ling asked in confusion.
Gu Wei ran over and shouted, "That's the book! It's a wonderful book! I'm so grateful to you for helping me today!"
Xiao Ning also remembered that he had let the cat out of the bag, and quickly made amends, "I said the wrong thing about Gu Wei's sword."
Gu Wei gave him a grateful look.
Xie Ling didn't do what he thought.
He asked, "How long will it take to forge this sword?"
"Half a month."
Xie Ling thought for a moment and said, "How about we help you with that task during this time? We can come back and get the sword and leave."
Xiao Ningqingjun paused, "Uh, are you going today?"
Xie Ling nodded.
Xiao Ning remained silent.
He still didn't dare.
I dare not appear in front of Leo.
After struggling in his heart, he started coughing again, bending over and coughing heart-wrenchingly. Soon, there was a pool of blood on the ground.
Xie Ling frowned, and suddenly remembered what she had forgotten to do, which was to take Xiao Ning's pulse!
Seeing Xie Ling staring at him, Xiao Ning thought Xie Ling was frightened, and said softly: "It's okay, I often do this, I'm used to it."
Xie Ling bent down and placed her hand on his wrist. "I know medical skills. I'll help you."
Xiao Ning smiled bitterly, "It's hard to cure. This disease was brought from my mother's womb. It has been lingering for so many years. It's time for him to die."
Before she could say this, Xie Ling's next words made Xiao Ning's eyes widen.
"It can be cured, trust me."
