Chapter 459: Reach out

 The old man was extremely serious. Looking at the broken knife still in Chen Chao's hand, he said in a deep voice, "Let me take a look."

Chen Chao didn't say anything, just let go.

The broken knife was pulled by the old man's energy and fell into his palm. After holding the knife, the old man's eyes kept wandering over the broken knife, and his expression gradually became serious. Chen Chao was still a little confused, but Mrs. Yang seemed to understand something.

"Where's the other half?"

The old man raised his head and looked at Chen Chao, who readily took out the other half and handed it to the old man.

After the old man took it, he looked at it again and finally sighed, "It's really it."

Mrs. Yang asked curiously, "Is that it?"

The old man nodded solemnly, "Although I have never cast this sword with my own hands, the aura on it and the characteristics described by my predecessors are all from it."

Chen Chao also realized this later and asked in surprise, "This broken sword came from Jianqi Mountain?"

The old man who accidentally revealed this secret didn't care at all. He just glanced at Chen Chao and asked again, "Where did you get this knife, and how did you break it?"

Chen Chao did not speak immediately, but just glanced at Mrs. Yang. Mrs. Yang glanced at the old man, and the old man nodded immediately.

Mrs. Yang nodded and started to talk about the origin of this sword. However, from being forced to make knives at Jianqi Mountain to the only time she made knives for outsiders, it was inevitable that some family scandals should not be spread to outsiders.

After hearing this, Chen Chao said calmly, "I think the seniors heard about it in Chongming Mountain a few days ago. This broken knife was found by the juniors inside, but it was already broken when they found it. As for why it was broken,

This junior doesn’t know who the previous owner of the Broken Knife is, and this junior doesn’t know either, it’s just a coincidence.”

After hearing this, the old man sighed, "The cause of yesterday is the result of today. It is fate that we have to go back to Jianqi Mountain. Since it came from Jianqi Mountain, I don't necessarily feel bad about recasting it.

, its first owner was a very remarkable person, and you seem to be one of the young and handsome men of the world, it is fate after all."

When Chen Chao heard this, he still didn't understand what the old man in front of him meant, so he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, senior."

The old man waved his hands and said, "How can it be so easy? When I cast this sword, I used the most precious materials in Jianqi Mountain. Among them was a thousand-year-old cold stone. Jianqi Mountain has not found the second one for so many years. You

If you want to recast it, you have to find another piece. If there is no thousand-year cold stone, although it is possible to recast the sword successfully, it will definitely not be as good as it was back then."

Chen Chao was startled and asked, "Where can I find this thousand-year-old stone?"

The old man smiled and said, "That area of ​​Jianqi Mountain was a great sword from the previous generation.

In order to thank Jianqi Mountain for the flying sword he forged, the immortal should have taken it from overseas. There are countless ancient islands overseas. There are some ancient sects from unknown eras on them. There may be such sects among those sects.

However, every ancient sect has many institutions. Since you have been to the ancient ruins in Chongming Mountain, you naturally know it."

Chen Chao nodded and smiled bitterly. He had been to the ancient ruins behind Chongming Mountain once. Although he left in the end, if he had to choose again, he really didn't want to go. There were dangers there, and there was even a mysterious woman.

It doesn't look like a good place to go.

"Even if you go out to sea, you may not be able to find them. There are so many islands and so many ancient sects. How can you find them?"

The old man smiled freely.

Chen Chao had a headache, "Now there is no other way? Can we just try our luck like this?"

Mrs. Yang interjected, "Since you are the favorite of Emperor Liang, this matter is not troublesome. It just depends on whether His Majesty the Emperor is willing to part with it."

Chen Chao was confused.

Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "A few years ago, Daliang happened to find a thousand-year-old stone overseas, and it is now in the palace."

Chen Chao frowned.

Thousand-year cold stone is not even included in Jianqi Mountain's century-old sword. When Jianqi Mountain got the thousand-year cold stone, it was originally intended to be used to cast a unique flying sword. Who knows?

When I caught up with the man who went up the mountain, I was forced to use the cold stone to make a knife.

The old man suddenly smiled and said, "How about I melt this sword and recast it for you? But I have agreed in advance that my skills are not as good as those of my ancestors, and the new sword will definitely not be as good as the original one."

knife."

Chen Chao stood there, making a difficult choice.

But soon he smiled and said, "Senior, please wait a moment. I will ask Your Majesty when I write a letter and regain consciousness."

The old man was surprised and said, "Do you really think that His Majesty the Emperor can give such a rare thing to a foreign minister like you?"

Chen Chao said, "No matter what, you have to give it a try."

The old man clicked his tongue and said, "It's amazing. If that piece of cold stone really comes, I will work hard to help you make a knife. However, I have said something in advance. You can't use up that piece of cold stone. The rest will be used as thanks."

The ceremony will be left at Jianqi Mountain. As for this matter, whether you tell your Majesty or not is your business, I won't make it known everywhere."

A thousand-year-old cold stone is the best in the world

The sword-forging thing, Jianqi Mountain's previous loss of this thing had caused a lot of pain to the swordsmiths of the mountain. Now that they have been waiting for so many years and have the chance to get another piece, naturally no one will refuse it.

Chen Chao nodded.

The old man looked at him and murmured, "If this is really the case, I will open up the furnace and make another flying sword."

After hearing this, Mrs. Yang was startled, and then her eyes filled with anticipation. .??.

The old man glanced at him and snorted, "If you can really get it, come and help me."





A letter soon reached the Zuowei Yamen from Jianqi Mountain thousands of miles away. The Yamen officer responsible for packing the letter took a look at the signature and immediately took the letter to find Song Lian in the lobby. Now the Zuowei Commander-in-Chief

I'm in a very good mood these days. The first one is that I'm getting married and my life is getting better and better. The second one is that after the guardian envoy went to the north, he no longer had an immediate boss, so no one had to look for him every now and then.

After scolding, Song Lian was looking through past files in the lobby. When he saw the clerk coming in, he raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

The clerk handed over the letter, and Song Lian took it. When he noticed that it was signed, he smiled and said, "This guy knows how to write a letter to ask me."

After tearing open the envelope, there was still a letter inside. This time Song Lian took a look and saw that there were a few words signed by His Majesty on it. He was stunned for a moment, then picked up the letter and read it. The letter said simply that the broken knife was recast.

, I need something, please make your decision.

As for what it was, the letter didn't say clearly.

Song Lian cursed in a low voice, "What do you think is such a big deal? You have to write to His Majesty for such a thing?!"

But after scolding him, Song Lian immediately became discouraged. Didn't this damn letter to me just ask me to see your majesty?

The reason why Chen Chao did not write this letter to Xie Nandu but to Song Lian is simple. Although Xie Nandu has the Xie family behind him, he may not be able to see the emperor. As for whether he asked the dean to

Help, whether the dean will help is another matter. In this case, it is better to let Song Lian help.

Song Lian is the commander of the left guard, and now that the guardian envoy above him is not in the capital, he naturally has the opportunity to see his majesty.

"Prepare the carriage, I am going to enter the imperial city."

After reading the letter, Song Lian stood up immediately. When others asked him to help, he might not be willing to help, but when Chen Chao asked, he would not refuse.

Soon, a carriage came out of Zuowei Yamen and soon arrived at the gate of the imperial city.

Song Lian walked out of the carriage and stood at the entrance of the imperial city, waiting for the guard to pass the message. He did not enter at will.

The palace authority can only wait.

Not long after, a figure appeared outside the palace gate. It was Li Heng, the chamberlain. The head of the palace chamberlain looked at Song Lian with a smile and asked, "Why did Commander Song enter the palace?"

Song Lian knew that Li Heng in front of him was the emperor's personal attendant, so he explained his intention without any nonsense.

Li Heng smiled and said, "If Commander Song is trustworthy, how about handing over the letter to our family?"

Song Lian did not hesitate and quickly handed over the letter and said with a wry smile, "If that boy has any excessive demands in the letter, my father-in-law must say a few good words to that boy."

Li Heng said softly, "Commander Song is worrying too much."

Song Lian still doesn't know about His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict coming to Jianqi Mountain. If he knew, he would definitely not be so worried.

Li Heng turned around and walked away, while Song Lian stood there and saw him off.





The letter was quickly placed on the desk of His Majesty the Emperor. Emperor Liang opened the envelope, looked at it a few times, nodded in approval and said, "This boy's handwriting is quite good, much better than those of my sons."

Li Heng asked curiously, "What does he want?"

Emperor Liang casually threw the letter to Li Heng in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly.

After Li Heng took the letter and looked at it for a few times, he sighed with emotion, "That thousand-year-old stone is a good thing. I remember that when I found it, I lost a lot of people in order to bring it back to the palace. Your Majesty is willing to do so."

?"

Emperor Liang did not answer this question, but said with a smile, "This seems to be the first time that boy has reached out to me, can I not give it to him?"

"Besides, I have snatched the whole world from his family. If he wants to break a stone, why would he be reluctant to part with it?"

Li Heng also smiled and said, "Your Majesty dotes on him too much. If the princes and highnesses find out, I don't know how sad they will be."

Whether it was supporting the Chen Dynasty before or receiving such a precious millennium cold stone now, it was a great favor.

"Those boys, as long as I don't give them the throne, I don't necessarily care."

Emperor Liang smiled and suddenly said, "Li Heng, it seems that you haven't been out of your mind for a long time. Go to Jianqi Mountain and bring that broken stone to that boy."

The Millennium Cold Stone is an important thing after all. The distance from Shendu to Jianqi Mountain is not that close, so something might happen along the way.

Li Heng nodded and said, "I obey."

Emperor Liang waved his hand and said with some pride, "As long as this kid is willing to stretch out his hand, he will be busy in the future."
