I just looked at her, which made Duanmu Xiuchun nervous:
“I mean, Mr. Zheng can move here so he doesn’t have to travel back and forth.”
"What's a lot of running around? Just lend me your sports car, I can go wherever I want."
Besides, I can pay at the restaurant; I've already written down the prices anyway.
"Well... alright!" Duanmu Xiuchun couldn't find an excuse to keep me here.
Before I get the result, they have to agree to whatever conditions I propose.
I took a few more photos, then took the documents and left, and of course, I also drove off in Duanmu Xiuchun's car.
I was listening to Duanmu Yifu's phone while I was on the road.
As soon as he heard I was leaving, he came back to life on the spot:
Why did you let him leave?
"Dad! I think it's best not to provoke him until he has figured out the result."
Moreover, I feel that he is a bit hard to figure out. If we are to deal with him later, we should also find out his background.
The competition is the best opportunity.
"Do you think he can beat me?" After a moment of silence, Duanmu Yifu finally said:
"Fine! You have a point. This guy said he didn't know how to use a knife, but the way he used it that day was terrifying."
"Dad! Should we send him weapons again this time?"
"Send it! Not only should we send it, but we should send something good, so that he thinks we're begging him to do a good job."
Give him the Tang Dynasty sword that was bestowed upon him by the Tang emperor, which I had collected.
"Oh? That's your favorite sword, and it's also our ancestral sword."
"It's just a sword, and there's no such thing as a sword ancestor. Many people already disapprove of us still worshipping that sword; they feel it's an insult to our samurai swords. Just give it to him!"
You could tell that Duanmu Yifu was very reluctant to part with it.
But he had no choice but to do this in order to keep me calm.
What a bunch of ingrates! If the Tang Emperor hadn't bestowed swords upon them, would they have been able to forge Japanese swords?
They're like people who eat their rice bowl and then curse their mother when they put it down.
They even had objections to keeping this knife.
But it benefited me.
Duanmu Xiuchun's voice rang out again: "Dad! What about the superhuman project?"
"This still needs to be implemented. Isn't there still time before he calculates it? Go now and cultivate a good relationship."
If you get pregnant with his child, you'll be in big trouble in the eyes of those above.
If all else fails, give her some medication; make sure she gets pregnant before he calculates it.
Holy crap! I thought they gave up, turns out they wanted to have their cake and eat it too.
That's a clever plan, but unfortunately, you don't meet the requirements at all.
Not long after I got back, Duanmu Xiuchun arrived with a knife.
When she held the knife out to me, even I, who know nothing about knives, felt that it was a good knife.
The blade is made of refined steel, with a sharp edge and a remarkably resilient body.
Near the hilt, the two ancient characters “御赐” (Imperial Gift) are engraved.
The hilt is still gold-plated, and the guard is shaped like a dragon's head with its mouth open, ready to spit out the blade.
The handles are made of tiger skin, with a pattern of scales.
Two rubies are symmetrically set on the two sides in the middle.
It has no tassel, but the end is a dragon's tail.
The scabbard is also made of steel, engraved with the shape of phoenix feathers, and the very end is inlaid with a ruby.
This isn't a knife; it's a work of art. The few rubies on it alone could fetch an astronomical price.
“Mr. Zheng! This is my father’s best collection. This Tang sword was bestowed upon us by the Tang emperor and also has collectible value.”
"Great!" I was genuinely happy and cheerfully put the knife back into the box to accept it.
"When I see Mr. Duanmu again, I will definitely thank him in person."
"Hehe! No need for that. My dad just wants you to solve it quickly."
It can't be quick; we have to wait until Aunt Jun and the others leave.
But I have to unravel it; I need to know where that place is.
According to them, although they knew it was in the rainforest, the place must be very hard to find, otherwise Old Hei wouldn't have asked those old guys to help.
Anyway, only I can get the key. Even if they go, they won't be able to get into that place.
"no problem!"
I said a few more words to Duanmu Xiuchun and then sent her away. Then I took the knife and went to find Peng Jun.
Peng Jun fell in love with the knife as soon as he saw it:
"They really spared no expense! Kid, do you know? This knife was forged using the long-lost clay tempering method."
The smelting technique used to make this knife alone makes it priceless.
This is another imperial gift; I don't even know what to say about this knife.
Kid! Can you figure out what they want you to calculate?
"Yes! I plan to go in myself so I can remember the coordinates and won't need to rely on them next time."
"Don't we still have the key? It's pointless for them to get in anyway."
"They probably won't let you in so easily, and they probably won't let you leave with the message either."
Peng Jun really understands them!
I then told Peng Jun what I had overheard, and Peng Jun immediately exclaimed, "Damn it!"
"Those bastards, they're still as despicable as ever."
"It's alright, Master. Do you think I'm so easy to kill?"
"No! You can't take that risk. I'll go in with you. You don't know those bastards in Yangben. They'll come up with all sorts of despicable tricks."
That... seems to be true.
"Huh? Master! If everyone goes inside, how will they make their move?"
I still rely on the key. Anyway, they can't get into the final place, so what does it matter how many people go?
Peng Jun's eyes lit up: "That's great! If everyone knows, then it's no longer a secret. It would be pointless for them to kill you again."
