035 The Sword Seller

Finally, the sky became dark and the fish belly was white in the east, but there were already scattered pedestrians on the street.

Now Xiao Xu felt a little hungry in his stomach. When he saw the steaming buns in the bun shop, he had no money to buy them, so he stood by and drooled while staring at the buns.

The owner of the bun shop glanced at Xiao Xu and asked, "Want to buy buns?"

Xiao Xu shook his head and said calmly, "If you don't have money, can you give me one?"

The owner of the bun shop looked Xiao Xu up and down and said, "Swap that golden knife on your back with me!"

Xiao Xu thought to himself, "This sword was passed down from the master, it can't be replaced with a bun!"

He immediately turned around and walked away.

But people are like iron rice, and they feel hungry after a meal. After a while, Xiao Xu's stomach began to growl.

Xiao Xu is indeed penniless now, and the only valuable thing is a knife.

I originally wanted to make money by performing on the street, but now I'm so hungry that I don't even have the energy to perform. My martial arts performance is weak, and no one will come to see it.

Xiao Xu couldn't help but feel hungry, so he decided to sell knives to relieve his urgent need.

Since ancient times, heroes have no place to fight, which is deeply regrettable. Heroes have no money to sell their swords, which is also a desperate choice.

Especially those who are proficient in martial arts but have no skills to make a living.

Xiao Xu thought to himself, "I will redeem it later when I have money. I believe that Master will forgive me for doing this if he knows the current situation."

When he arrived at the pawn shop, Xiao Xu put the knife on the counter.

"How much is this knife worth, shopkeeper?" Xiao Xu shouted.

The shopkeeper looked at it for a long time and finally spoke up, "This knife is very strange. I have never seen a knife made of this kind of material. I can't figure out the specific price!"

"That is a priceless treasure. Then just give me more money. I will be easily satisfied. Give me all your cash. Just take the knife!" Xiao Xu said with a slight smile.

The shopkeeper curled his lips, stroked his beard and said, "Things whose price cannot be determined are worthless in my eyes."

Xiao Xu picked up the knife and turned to leave, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper hurriedly asked, "Young man, wait a minute, are you short of money?"

Xiao Xu nodded slightly and said, "Yes, otherwise why would I sell my sword?"

The shopkeeper stared at Xiao Xu's face and smiled kindly, "See, you are also a knight. Our boss is recruiting people with strong martial arts skills. If you go there, if you can be reused by the boss, you will not only be able to wear good clothes and eat well, but also earn money every month."

There is money to be paid."

Xiao Xu's heart moved slightly and asked, "Where is your boss?"

The shopkeeper pointed to the big house opposite and said, "It's right opposite."

Xiao Xu turned around and asked, "Is it the Yan Mansion opposite?"

The shopkeeper nodded slightly and said, "Well, it's just across the street!"

Xiao Xu came to the door of Yan Mansion and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was a white-faced boy in brand new clothes.

Xiao Xu bowed his hands and smiled slightly, "May I ask if your mansion is recruiting knights?"

The young man came to the door and said, "Please wait a moment, I will report to the master!"

After a while, a man with a big belly, about fifty years old and richly dressed came out.

The boy smiled and said, "This is our Mr. Yan."

Master Yan asked with a slight smile, "What skills does the young hero have?"

Xiao Xu smiled slightly and said, "I know martial arts, but the martial arts I know would be a bit boastful to say, but it would be a bit hurtful to fight!"

Mr. Yan stroked his long beard and said in surprise, "There are such strange martial arts in the world. I would like to see them. I know some martial arts, so why don't we compete!"

Xiao Xu felt anxious and helpless now, and thought to himself, "This man is quite confident, but since the day he entered the world, he has never met an opponent. What if he strikes too hard and gets into trouble, let alone himself?"

Because I'm hungry, I don't have the energy to fight with others!"

Xiao Xu smiled slightly and said, "I have learned some hard skills, why don't you come and hit me and see if I can hit you!"

Mr. Yan nodded slightly and said with a smile, "That's fine!"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists and began to exert force.

Xiao Xu broke into a cold sweat. He didn't know how good Master Yan was in martial arts. What if he was injured?

At this time, the boy next to Master Yan begged, "Master, let me give it a try!"

Mr. Yan nodded and said with a slight smile, "Be gentle and don't hurt others!"

I don’t know if this guy has a problem with his understanding. Judging from the way he punched, it seemed like he had used up all the strength he could muster.

However, after the boy hit Xiao Xu, he was ejected more than three feet away and staggered down.

Xiao Xu's move is called Wuxiangsheng. It is a high-level Buddhist hard skill that can rebound any blunt damage. The harder the attacker is, the greater the rebound will be.

Mr. Yan clapped his hands and praised, "What a handsome kung fu."

He turned back to the boy and said, "Take him to the backyard for team training!"

"Tuanlian, is this Mr. Yan trying to stage an uprising? If he fails, then will I, the majestic prince, become a traitor?" Xiao Xu thought to himself.
