Chapter 386 Return to Dust

"Average women don't carry daggers with them."

As soon as Jia Lao said that, Hua Mian's back trembled and without turning back, a sentence floated over: "You read it wrong, how could it be a dagger?"

"You can't hide your actions from me. Don't hide them here. We are the two of us. This is what Sikong Xiao gave to you."

Hua Mian was shocked when she heard Mr. Jia mention Sikong Xiao. When she received this knife, there was no one else in the room. How did he know? It couldn’t be someone who installed a camera secretly, right?!

Seeing that Hua Mian no longer denies, Jia Lao added: "If you don't speak, I will just treat you as a default."

At this time, Hua Mian turned around, and held the dagger in her arms with one hand, and asked, "How did Mr. Jia see that this is a knife?"

"Very good. You asked me first how it was to see it as a knife, which means you didn't see what it was when you first received it."

Anyway, Mr. Jia already knew it, so there was no need to hide it. Hua Mian took out the dagger again, "Young Master Jiu gave me this knife just for self-defense, so don't think about it."

"I know you don't have the courage to assassinate someone with it. No one in this world would just assassinate Gui Chen." Old Jia said in a relaxed tone, which sounded very terrible to Huamian.

"Gui Chen? Are you talking about this knife? It turns out it has a name, which sounds good." Unexpectedly, such a knife that looks like a rolling pin has a name.

When Mr. Jia heard Hua Mian say this, his reaction was even greater than when he saw this knife. "You must have never even heard of Gui Chen's name?"

"I have never heard of it...", it's just a knife. Is it necessary to hear it?

"This is Guichen Sword, one of the top ten famous tools today. Do you still remember why Commander Su, who was guarding the gate when you entered the palace, took a fancy to the kitchen knife you carried? The commander of the imperial guards took a fancy to the kitchen knife of a chef, and no one would believe this when he said it."

"Didn't he meant that he was interested in the material of my kitchen knife?" After Jia Lao's reminder, Hua Mian remembered what happened when he first entered the palace.

Mr. Jia found a stone platform to sit down, signaled Hua Mian to put away the dagger, and said: "This dagger is also forged with fine steel, and this knife will only be better than your kitchen knife."

"It is rumored that a master of knife casting in the previous dynasty casting countless famous swords when he was young. Many nobles and heroes came to his house to beg him to cast the sword. As a result, one day, the master accidentally bought an inconspicuous stone with a large amount of money. The stone was not big, probably just like the one in your yard. Friends and relatives around him said that he was crazy and spent so much savings just to buy a stone that really contained ore. Even if it was really an ore, the size was not enough to forge a sword."

Hua Mian likes to listen to stories very much. After listening to Mr. Jia starts to tell, he put down his work and sits aside to listen.

"When the outer skin of the stone was peeled off, no one had seen the exposed ore light. According to legend, the white light kept rushing into the sky."

Hearing this passage, Hua Mian couldn't help but complain in her heart, and she didn't turn on a flashlight, how could it still shine?
