Chapter 141 Sword Seller
Chapter141 The Sword Seller
On this day, Mo Qingcheng summarized all kinds of needs in the house as usual and went out with Yan'er.
In fact, the place of purchase is not far from this village.
This village is relatively remote, but there are also some other villages around, and the rich products of each village are different. In the past, there were always people who went all the way to other villages for exchanges. Over time, some people began to exchange in one place. One person started, and the second and third began to follow the trend. Countless people put out some things grown at home here, and some people took out their own handmade things to sell. Gradually, it is becoming more and more large, and people from various villages will spontaneously come to this market to buy what they need. Today, the destination of Mo Qingcheng and Yan'er is here.
Before going out, Mo Qingcheng naturally disguised himself and Yan'er. First of all, because my face is so attractive, such a shocking woman in such a remote place will naturally cause some unnecessary trouble. And now one of them is hiding and doesn't want to get too much attention at all, so camouflage is extremely necessary.
On the other hand, Mo Qingcheng believes that He Yu and Shen Muchen must keep looking for them. First of all, He Lian will never let them go. What's more, He Liancheng has been hit so hard now. He Lian will certainly adhere to the principle of "take your life while you are sick" and step up the pace of the crusade against He Liancheng. On Shen Muchen's side, He Liancheng has suffered a secret loss. I believe that he will not be able to hide Shen Muchen. Come on, I believe that Shen Muchen will not let go of this opportunity to fall into the well. For these reasons, it is very important for Mo Qingcheng to disguise himself to go out.
Naturally, Mo Qingcheng is not unfamiliar with camouflage. With some rouge, foundation, and some decorations, Mo Qingcheng saw a completely strange self in the bronze mirror for a moment. Yan'er looked aside. Although it was not the first time to see Mo Qingcheng disguised like this, Yan'er still felt very magical.
Mo Qingcheng's disguise, the appearance of an ordinary rich lady, is not very outstanding, but there is also a kind of nobleness naturally revealed. Because this village is small, naturally, everything can't be hidden in each family. Parents are short, and they are all told in this small village. And their family, which had "lucked great luck" in the mouths of the villagers, naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the village.
He Liancheng doesn't care about such a thing at all, and Mo Qingcheng knows that the more people in the village feel that you are different, the more eye-catching you will be. Therefore, every time Mo Qingcheng will walk around the village with such a disguised face. Sometimes I also chat with some good women, so that there is naturally less curiosity about them, and there is less exposure crisis.
Mo Qingcheng looked at Yan Er's appearance and scolded with a smile, "How many times have you seen it? Every time you are as surprised as the first time you see it, and you are not tired of panic!" With that, Mo Qingcheng's hand was not idle. He pulled Yaner and sat down in front of the bronze mirror and began to disguise Yan'er.
It's already noon when the master and servant finish going out. At this time, it happens to be a warmer time, and more people want to come to the market. Since the beginning of the war, this market has naturally been affected. Usually fewer and fewer people come, and only at half noon is the most crowded.
A master and a servant came to this market one by one. The two of them usually looked at the owners in front and nodded to indicate that they could. The little maid who followed them was responsible for taking out money to buy these things. After walking around for more than half a day, the things that should be bought were almost bought. When the two were about to go home, Mo Qingcheng saw a man with a little doubt in his eyes and walked over. Naturally, Yan'er was a little puzzled about Mo Qingcheng's behavior, but she was used to listening to Mo Qingcheng's arrangement, and she didn't ask anything, and also walked over.
Mo Qingcheng walked to the stall placed by the square-faced man, stopped and looked at the things placed on his stall. Yan'er saw why Mo Qingcheng was interested in this. There is no other reason, just because the things sold by this man with this face are a little strange.
So, what exactly does the square-faced man sell? In fact, there is only one thing for sale on this stall, which is a sword. A finely crafted sword, tendon sheath and hilt all have very complicated patterns, which looks extremely heavy. Without looking at the body of the sword, Yaner can judge it from experience. This is a rare good sword.
Mo Qingcheng seemed to be completely attracted by this sword. His slender red nails scratched the pattern on the scabbard, and his nails moved more than this pattern. In fact, Mo Qingcheng has always been unwilling to keep too long nails, because too long nails will affect his actions. With such an active nature, too long nails will only get in the way. However, Mo Qingcheng is now playing a rich wife. If he doesn't leave nails, it's a little too much. Therefore, Mo Qingcheng brought a set of fake nails.
"Good sword." Mo Qingcheng said. He had never spoken, and even Mo Qingcheng came over, a square-faced man who did not open his mouth to sell. At this time, he slowly opened his mouth. Madam is really wise. A good sword should be handed over to the person who knows the goods. Madam can make an offer. If this price is satisfactory, she will definitely bear the pain.
Mo Qingcheng ignored what the square-faced man said and didn't even raise his head. He asked, "How can you be willing to sell such a good sword?"
The square-faced man pretended to be in pain and said, "The dissatisfied lady said that he was a martial artist, and this sword was also handed down from his family. Now the war is continuous, and strong men are being captured everywhere to enrich the troops. I am the only seed left in the family. It's not that I am not patriotic, but I don't want my family to be cut off from my generation. That's why I took out this sword and wanted to change some money to go to the capital to make a living.
There was no problem with this. Mo Qingcheng asked faintly, "I haven't seen you before. Aren't you from this village?"
"Madam is really wise. She is indeed not from this village. Her home is close to the battlefield. That's why she abandoned her family for generations and fled here."
"Since you are going to the capital, why not sell it in a bigger city? In this case, there will be a good price.
The square-faced man was stunned. It seemed that he didn't expect Mo Qingcheng to ask this question. He scratched his head and thought about it before saying, " Even a woman can see the extraordinaryness of this sword. I believe more people can see it. My martial arts skills are low, and I'm afraid that my precious treasure will be targeted by people, so I'm going to find a predestined person to sell this sword.
Mo Qingcheng listened to the square-faced man say these reasonable words and smiled without saying anything. For the first time, he looked up at the square-faced man and said, "Your Excellency looked up at me. In fact, I didn't see anything special about this sword. I just think this sword is beautiful." With that, after inadvertently looking at the square-faced man's expression, Mo Qingcheng pulled Yaner away.
On the way back, Mo Qingcheng had been thinking. Yan'er looked at Mo Qingcheng's contemplation and did not say anything to interrupt her.
Seeing that Mo Qingcheng seemed to have figured out something and looked up faster, Yan'er asked, "Madam, what's wrong with this person?"
"At first, what attracted me was the sword. In fact, at the beginning, I found that the problem was not that person, but the sword!" Mo Qingcheng said slowly.
Yan'er was a little strange and asked, "Sword? What's wrong with this sword?" When asked about this, Yan'er suddenly stopped and said, "Madam, you just found that there is something wrong with this person, so why don't you let me kill him directly?"
Mo Qingcheng pressed Yan'er and said, "Yan'er, you're confused! Killing him will only scare the snakes, and will let the master behind him know that we have begun to be vigilant. Killing him is only bad for us!"
After listening to Mo Qingcheng's explanation, Yan'er suddenly scratched her head and said shyly, "Yan'er's mind is naturally not as flexible as my wife. I hope you can give me more advice."
Mo Qingcheng nodded Yan's forehead and then said, "First, there is something wrong with the sword, and then I find that there is something wrong with the person. There are many people in the world who can disguise, and each has its own way. Although I can't see his disguise, there is no way to disguise a person's eyes. I think the problem is his eyes.
"Think about it, there should be ordinary people around here, and very few people can buy swords. Suddenly, a person like me who seems to be very interested in that sword appears. He should be happy. Even if he deliberately suppressed the joy, after I said I would not buy it, he experienced such a fall together. After he was hopeful and then disappointed, there should be disappointment in his eyes. But when I last looked at him, I found that there was nothing in his eyes, which was extremely calm. This plainness and calmness really doesn't look like a person from the countryside.
Mo Qingcheng said, and his face became solemn. What is the purpose of this person? If it is surveillance, then it is first of all a mistake for him to hold that sword. Or is he testing whether he is Mo Qingcheng?
Thinking about this, Mo Qingcheng returned to the house in a blink of an eye. She thought all the way, and she barely came up with an answer about the intention of the square-faced man. Whether it is right or not, her first task now is to persuade He Liancheng to evacuate this place quickly. Anyway, He Liancheng's safety is the first!
