Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises.

Chapter 10 Black Water Knife, Vixen
The blade is three feet and three inches long and two and a half fingers wide. It is shiny black all over, with only the blade part showing silver-blue color. The cloud patterns on it are like waves, flashing with cold light.

The hand guard is made of a black metal, and the handle is covered with a layer of dark blue unknown leather. Holding it in the hand, a warm and cool feeling comes.

He lifted the blade slightly and stroked it with his fingers. The low, vibrato-like sound was like a war song, as if it contained a volcanic force.

"Good knife!"

Qin Jiang couldn't help but admire that it was amazing to be able to make knives of this level in this era!
Liu Yize also laughed when he heard this, "Brother, you have good taste! This sword is called Black Water.

It is made of ten-refined fine iron, which I folded and forged several times, embedded with soft gold using the steel sandwich method, and then quenched with my Liu family's secret method to make this knife! It can cut hair with a gust of wind and iron like mud! "

"how much is it?"

"Thank you, fifty taels of silver!"

"Farewell!"

"hey hey"

Liu Yize quickly grabbed Qin Jiang and said, "Brother, brother, don't go, don't go. It's a business, you have to bargain, right?"

Qin Jiang turned around and stretched out a finger.

Liu Yize's eyes lit up, "Ten taels? Ten taels is fine! I'll count you as my friend!"

"One tael. I'll give you one tael at most." Qin Jiang said.

Liu Yize's smile fell when he heard this, "This alone is more than one ounce of iron that I have, no, no, one ounce is absolutely not enough."

"That's fine. I can just pick an ordinary knife and it will work."

Having said that, Qin Jiang was about to walk out.

Liu Yize grabbed his sleeve and said, "No, no, no, the price is negotiable. I'll charge you the cost price, six taels of silver. I'll sell it to you for six taels of silver. It can't be any lower!"

"Brother Liu, there is no need to say more. Just say one ounce, and I really don't have any extra money."

For Qin Jiang, one tael is his limit, and his psychological expectation is actually no more than five hundred wen.

After all, it's just an insurance policy and may not be used.

"Okay! One ounce is fine!" Liu Yize shouted, looking painful.

Qin Jiang turned around and looked at Liu Yize up and down in surprise.

Liu Yize smiled awkwardly, "One ounce is definitely one ounce, not more. But, brother, you have to help me do something."

"What's the matter?" Qin Jiang asked directly.

If it's too difficult, then you don't need this Black Water Knife.

Liu Yize rubbed his hands and said, "There is a blood gold mine in the Big Black Mountain, which was opened by my great-grandfather, but some accidents happened later, so it was sealed.

My request is that you, brother, can go to the mine and help me get back 40 kilograms of blood gold.

If you are willing, I will sell you this black water for one ounce of silver!"

Qin Jiang's eyes changed slightly when he heard this. Something unexpected happened?
He spoke slowly, "The incident you are talking about, are you referring to the monster in the Great Black Mountain?"

Liu Yize was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily, "Yes, it is a vixen. But don't worry! The vixen hasn't appeared for decades, so it must have left long ago."

He really had no other choice. The county lieutenant came to him a few days ago and offered three hundred taels of silver to buy a blood-flame golden spear that was a secret of their Liu family.

He had looked for several warriors in the north of the city and even contacted martial arts masters in the inner city, but no one was willing to go.

First, it was dangerous, and second, the reward he gave was too little for those warriors.

This young man has an extraordinary temperament at first glance. Although he is dressed simply, how could a commoner's child have such smooth skin?
He must be a young man from a family in the inner city who is skilled in martial arts and was thrown out by his family elders to gain experience!
It can be said that this is almost his only chance!

Otherwise, we can only ask the county lieutenant to go there in person.

But he is the buyer, how can he say that?
Wouldn’t he be scolded by his ancestors one after another in his afterlife?

Qin Jiang shook his head, "It's too dangerous. Even if there is no vixen, Dahei Mountain is not a good place to go.

If your mine is outside, it's fine, but if it's inside or even deep inside, I won't accept it even if you give it to me for free, let alone a tael of silver."

Hearing this, Liu Yize looked anxious, "Don't worry, brother! This mine is just a little bit inside, and we in the Liu family have a safe route! If it weren't for my lack of strength and not being a true warrior, I wouldn't have to ask you to replace me."

He had waited so long for this opportunity, how could he let it go so easily?
Qin Jiang shook his head, "Not enough."

Liu Yize pursed his lips slightly, and after a moment he let out a long sigh, "Well, if you are interested, you can leave one or two taels of silver as a mortgage.

If you can bring back the blood gold, I will return the original amount of silver and give you another ten taels of silver as tea money! How do you think? "

Qin Jiang thought for a moment. He had originally planned to go deeper into the inner area to dig herbs.

Having obtained Liu's roadmap, he actually got the upper hand.

"it is good!"

He agreed, and then continued, "What if I take more of this blood gold?"

Take more?

Liu Yize touched his chin. The demand for blood gold was actually not that great. After all, not many people could afford it.

But if he didn't agree, he was afraid that the person in front of him would not agree.

"If you take more, then the upper limit will be 100 jin. One jin of blood gold equals one tael of silver!"

Qin Jiang's eyes lit up when he heard this. One pound of blood gold for one ounce of silver?
But he remembered that a pound of ten-refined iron could not be sold for more than one or two ounces of silver!

One hundred jin means that if the amount of blood gold is sufficient, he can get a full sixty taels this time!
Then he can learn a few more martial arts!
With the potential panel, he can ignore the training time and get the training results directly.

Although there is no stable way to increase potential points now, there will always be one in the future!

By then, with several martial arts superimposed on one person, how could his strength be compared to that of a warrior who had only learned one martial art?

If you want to stand firm in this chaotic world, you must have strength that surpasses others!
Only by clenching your fist can you be guaranteed!
The Great Black Mountain is covered with dark clouds all year round, like a black crown.

In the slightly dim black locust tree forest, Qin Jiang used a small wooden knife to remove the herbs, leaving the roots and stems and then sprinkled some white powder on them.

These powders can help herbs recover so they don’t have to wait until next year to send out new sprouts.

Call ~
Just as he was about to get up, white mist rose around him, carrying a slightly bitter aroma.

Seeing this, he quickly walked to a big locust tree, squatted down gently, and placed his right hand on the black water knife at his waist.

A chill came from all directions. Blurry black shadows appeared and disappeared in the dim vision, and shrill howls could be heard vaguely.

After a while, the black shadow gradually went away, and the white mist became lighter, moving away with the black shadow.

After taking a breath for a while, he took out the map Liu Yize gave him, determined the direction, and continued to move towards the inner area of ​​Dahei Mountain.

After walking for about ten miles, we encountered several wild beasts along the way. After getting rid of them, we entered the inner area of ​​Dahei Mountain.

Walking in the dense forest, he referred to the route map to determine the direction.

Suddenly, a hint of red appeared in his sight.

Looking over there, ten meters away, a red fruit the size of a longan was hanging on a small tree half a meter high.

The fruit is covered with white spots, some light and some dark, like clouds.

A look of joy appeared in Qin Jiang's eyes, Cloud Patterned Fruit!

This is a rare medicinal material! With simple preparation, it can be made into a good wound medicine!
If it were placed on the market, this cloud-patterned fruit would be worth two taels of silver!
This Big Black Mountain is indeed full of treasures, and there is even cloud-patterned fruit.

He walked over, squatted down, took out a handkerchief from his arms, held the cloud-patterned fruit, and then swung the wooden knife in his hand, cutting off the fruit along with a bit of the branch.

He carefully wrapped the cloud-patterned fruit and placed it in his arms, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Just as his body relaxed, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. All the sounds of insects disappeared, and even the sound of the wind disappeared.

He turned back suddenly, and found that a thin mist had already risen in the dark and dense black woods.

Two white-haired foxes, each as tall as a person, stood up, staring at him with their vertical pupils emitting a faint green glow, with a faint smile on the corners of their mouths.

——!!!!!!

Qin Jiang's pupils shrank into needle points, a tingling chill spread, and the hairs all over his body stood up!
