Zhou Yiming was stunned and thought it was impossible. This seven-star sword, from the surface, it was obvious that it was a treasure, and it was an extraordinary treasure. How could it not be used? Could it be that he has a silver-like wax gun tip, which is only good but not useful, but actually there is nothing in the scabbard?
After having this doubt in his mind, Zhou Ming turned around and carefully looked at the seven-star sword in front of him. An indescribable aura immediately emanated from the sword, making Zhou Ming like it more and more.
At this time, Zhou Yiming finally understood that the reason why Han Ping said that the knife could not be used was completely pretentious and nonsense. His real purpose was actually very simple, which was to use this as an excuse to refuse to give the knife to him.
After seeing through Han Pingzhi's trick, Zhou Yiming pretended to be surprised, shook his head repeatedly and sighed: "What a pity. Such a peerless sword cannot be used. It is really the greatest regret in the world."
After sighing for a while, Zhou Yiming looked at Han Pingzhi seriously and pretended to ask: "Master Han, may I ask what's wrong with this seven-star sword? Why can't such a precious thing be used?"
Han Pingzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yi Ming had fallen into his trap. He thought that if it weren't for his cleverness, he would definitely not be able to save the seven-star sword today.
With a burst of joy in his heart, Han Pingzhi hurriedly replied: "It's strange to say that since I took up the post of general manager, I discovered this seven-star sword. I knew it was a treasure at the first sight and I loved it very much. I even want to use it as my own personal weapon.
However, it backfired as I tried to pull the sword out of its sheath many times, but all ended in failure. In the end, I even mobilized my energy and tried my best, but in the end I couldn't pull the sword out of its sheath.
Thinking about it, this sword may be just a decoration and has no actual combat effect. The sword body and scabbard should be connected together, otherwise it will not be unable to pull out the scabbard. "
"Oh? There are such weird things in the world?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yiming became even more curious about the sword. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand, picked up the sword from the knife holder, and played with it in his hand.
The sword body and scabbard of this seven-star sword feel very heavy when held in the hand, and the texture is very good to the touch. It feels like the scabbard is made of precious materials.
"Captain Zhou, what are you..." Seeing Yi Ming pick up the sword, Han Pingzhi felt reluctant and wanted to stop him, but felt it was inappropriate to let Yi Ming play with the seven-star sword like this, and felt distressed in his heart. I have mixed feelings and I don’t know what to do.
"What a good knife!" Zhou Ming admired sincerely after playing with it for a while, and made up his mind that even if the knife really couldn't be unsheathed, he would still get this knife in his hand.
"It's a good knife. It has no practical use and is no different from a piece of scrap metal." Han Pingzhi pretended not to care and said, "It's not that I am stingy and reluctant to give this sword to Zhou Baotou. It's really the seven-star sword that I want to take." If I don’t put it on the table, if I give it to Mr. Zhou, my face will be tarnished.”
"Master Han, but I only want this knife, what should I do?" Zhou Yiming had a malicious smile on his face.
Han Pingzhi could tell at a glance that this kid still refused to give up and had to let me show off my trump card: "Zhou Captou, don't be too impulsive. Look, I have all kinds of weapons in my arsenal. It's all as useful as your choice." Yes, just put scrap metal like this back.
To tell you the truth, Mr. Zhou, I’m not stingy. If you can pull this seven-star sword out of its sheath, I will give it to you right away without saying a word..."
Before Han Ping finished speaking, he heard a crisp sound. Yi Ming effortlessly pulled out the seven-star sword from its scabbard, held it in his hand, and waved it freely.
Zhou Yiming was also confused. When he pulled out the seven-star sword just now, he didn't activate his vitality or even exert any strength.
At that time, he just wanted to test whether the sword was really impossible to pull out as Han Pingzhi said. What he didn't expect was that he just pulled it gently and the sword came out of its sheath easily.
Han Pingzhi was dumbfounded on the spot, wondering what was going on? I tried every possible means before to pull the sword out of its sheath, but all failed. This guy just pulled it out gently, and the sword came out of its sheath. Could it be that this guy named Zhou is a martial arts practitioner? Why is it taller than me?
Impossible. Judging from the way he walked and the changes in his breath, although his martial arts cultivation level is not low, there is still a certain gap between him and me. It is obvious that he did not pull this sword out of its sheath with hard strength. , besides that, what was the reason that made him pull out the sword from its sheath.
After analyzing various possibilities in his mind, Han Pingzhi immediately thought of a possibility, that is, this seven-star sword can choose its own master, no matter whose hands it falls into, as long as that person is not the master he recognizes, no matter you No matter how much brute force was used, it was impossible to pull the knife out of its sheath.
On the other hand, if he determines that you are his master, you can easily pull him out of the scabbard regardless of your martial arts skills.
The moment Yi Ming pulled out the Seven-Star Sword just now, Han Pingzhi was so distressed that he almost snatched the Seven-Star Sword. However, he was relieved at this time, because if things were really as he thought, if this sword could choose its owner, If he doesn't recognize him, even if he takes the knife by force, it will be useless and can only be used as a decoration. Instead of doing this, it is better to go with the flow and give Zhou Ming a favor.
In this case, this treasured sword can be put to its best use, and it can also win over Zhou Ming's heart. For the first time they met, Zhou Ming gave him such a precious treasure. This was a favor that Zhou Ming could not even imagine not to owe.
For an upright and courageous young man like Yi Ming, as long as he has a good relationship with him, if he encounters trouble in the officialdom in the future, he will definitely help him if he just says a word.
It is more useful to make friends with such a capable gentleman than to make friends with a hundred villains. Han Pingzhi has been an official for many years, and he really understands this truth.
A hundred villains who have a good relationship with you can only be the icing on the cake. When your house is full of people and there is a lot of traffic in front of your house, these villains will all treat you as an ancestor. Once your house is empty, ghosts will not come to the door, and they will all run away. He is gone, and he will even say bad things about you behind your back, adding insult to injury and putting you to death.
Gentlemen are different. When you are prosperous and proud of your official career, these gentleman friends who are close to you may not come to your door at ordinary times, but once you are in danger, they are the life-savers who help you in times of need.
Zhou Yiming held the Seven-Star Sword in his hand and couldn't put it down. He didn't have time to consider Han Pingzhi's feelings and immediately started waving it in the arsenal.
When this seven-star sword was still in the scabbard, it was heavy in the hand. But as soon as the sword was taken out of the sheath, it immediately became extremely light. It was effortless to hold it in the hand and swing it, and it was even lighter than a sword.
Zhou Yiming was flying up and down in the arsenal. He made a fool of himself with a seven-star sword, and for a moment he forgot where he was.
During the entire process of wielding the Seven-Star Sword, Zhou Ming did not activate his vitality. When Zhou Ming was about to stop swinging and use the last move, he secretly used a trace of vitality, and the result was shockingly destructive.
Zhou Yiming moved toward the corner of the arsenal and slashed hard through the air. A huge breath burst out from the blade, directly destroying various weapons in the corner of the arsenal.
Those weapons were all made of fine iron, and when impacted by the murderous intent of the Seven Star Sword, they all turned into broken iron.
"What a sword!" Zhou Yiming praised sincerely. He has never seen such a powerful sword. His martial arts cultivation is not ranked among the entire Da Chu. There is still a lot of room for improvement. In the process of cultivation, Among them, he will inevitably encounter danger. With this seven-star sword in hand, he can be said to be even more powerful. No matter how much danger he encounters in the future, as long as he has this seven-star sword in his hand, he will have the ability to turn danger into safety.
Han Pingzhi was shocked when he saw this scene from the side. He thought that this sword and Yi Ming were a match made in heaven. It seemed that he was destined to get this sword.
"What a great move. Zhou Captou is so skilled at such a young age. He will have a lot to do in the future."
Zhou Yiming held the knife in his hand and immediately felt embarrassed when he saw the damaged weapons in the corner. He walked up to Han Pingzhi and saluted with both hands: "Master Han, I got carried away in my humble duty and damaged the weapons in the arsenal. Please forgive me." ."
"It doesn't matter, the corners are full of scrap metal that will be eliminated." Han Pingzhi said lightly, "Zhou Captou, it seems that this seven-star knife has a great fate with you. Since you like this knife so much, then I will give him to you.
I hope that after you have this knife, you will work harder and make greater contributions when doing errands for the court. "
Zhou Yiming couldn't believe his ears. Just now, Han Pingzhi regarded this seven-star sword as if it were his destiny. Why was he willing to give it to him now?
Zhou Yiming rolled his eyes and immediately thought of a possibility. Maybe he felt that he couldn't use the knife, so he might as well do it as a favor. If he gave it to him, it would not only win over him, but also make him appear to be very generous. Kill two birds with one stone.
"Thank you for the reward, sir." Zhou Ming immediately thanked him.
"A sword is given to a hero and it is put to its best use. Why should Zhou Baotou thank me?" Han Pingzhi stroked his beard with a proud look on his face.
Zhou Yiming's trip to the General Affairs Office was a fruitful one. Not only did he get help from Han Pingzhi in his plan to capture the spies, but he also got the Seven-Star Sword by chance. Such a unique treasure in the world is really a real treasure. It was an unexpected surprise.
After selecting the sword, Yi Ming and Han Pingzhi went to the main hall of the Yamen of the General Affairs Office to wait for the return of the messenger.
It was already past midnight, and it was pitch black outside. The stars and moon in the sky were all covered by dark clouds, which enveloped the entire city of Huijing in a chilling atmosphere.
Although Zhou Yiming had been in a good mood after getting the Seven-Star Sword, he was still very anxious when he saw that the person who sent the letter had not returned.
