Chapter 36 The weird person
When Lin Chen heard this, he became interested and immediately asked, "Oh? I wonder how strange the news that General Xu said is?"
Xu Yutang said, "Young Master Lin doesn't know anything. My news is not very strange, but the people in this news are so strange!"
"I wish to hear it carefully!"
Xu Yutang did not explain immediately, but asked: "I wonder if Young Master Lin had heard of this person, Jiuqi,"
"Jiuqi lay Buddhist?"
Before Lin Chen could speak, Li Xiaoran, who was standing beside him, immediately asked, "Do you still know how to make a sword when you are talking about the wine chess layman?"
Xu Yutang smiled slightly and nodded, "That's exactly that!"
"It turned out to be him..." Lin Chen nodded when he heard their conversation.
Lin Chen also knows a little about this lay Buddhist.
This person is named Qi Guitian, and is a very famous sword-making master. The reason why he is famous is not only because of his superb sword-making skills, but also because Qi Guitian is a scattered man who travels around the world. He has no support from any sect behind him, but he has worked hard to develop a good martial arts and sword-making skills with his talents and efforts.
However, although Qi Guitian's sword-making skills are very good, his own hobby is not sword-making, but his obsession with drinking and playing chess. Therefore, he called himself "Jiuqi Layman".
"So, General Xu's news is about the lay Buddhist Jiuqi?" Lin Chen asked.
"Yes, the news I have is indeed about this lay Buddhist of Jiuqi." Xu Yutang nodded and continued to speak: "I believe the two young heroes also know that this lay Buddhist of Jiuqi is famous for making swords, but strangely, he himself rarely makes swords, so there are many people in the world who want to make swords, but there are very few people who can really get a sword from the lay Buddhist of Jiuqi!"
Xu Yutang said, paused, and then continued, "I have been transporting things between Jingchu and Bashu recently, so I have heard some news about this Jiuqi layman. The news said that Jiuqi layman will have a brand new sword about to be born, but he does not intend to sell this sword for sale, so I have no news at the moment, but if the two young heroes are interested, they can try their luck, and this Jiuqi layman lives in Jingzhou City in Jingchu!"
The bandits have been wiped out, and the next thing will be handled entirely by Liang Jun. There is nothing else to do with Lin Chen.
On the way down the mountain, Lin Chen and Li Xiaoran were walking together. He suddenly asked, "After this matter is settled, will Brother Li be anxious to return to Tiangong Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoran turned to look at Lin Chen and asked, "Is it possible that Brother Lin has something to do?"
Lin Chen thought for a while and said, "I will go to Tiangong Pavilion soon, but the road is not very familiar. If Brother Li can accompany you, you can avoid taking any wrong paths, and you won't have to be so boring along the way."
"You are going to Tiangong Pavilion?" Li Xiaoran was stunned at first when he heard this, but when his eyes fell on the sword bag behind Lin Chen's back, he immediately understood and asked, "Are you going to cast this sword body into a sword?"
"That's right!" Lin Chen nodded.
"No..." Li Xiaoran asked in confusion: "If I talk about sword making, I dare say that 90% of the people in the world would think of Jingchu's Zangjian Villa first. You are in Jingchu now, and the Zangjian Villa is not far away. Why did Brother Lin go to our Xiangchu?"
"There are naturally some reasons..." Lin Chen doesn't know what to say.
"Is it because he was rejected for a sword?" Li Xiaoran thought.
"Ahem... it's not..." Lin Chen thought for a while and asked, "I wonder if Brother Li has heard of it. A sword contest in Zangjian Villa will be held?"
"I naturally heard about this..." Li Xiaoran nodded, and then he realized it and said in surprise: "Oh! I understand. Brother Lin is planning to participate in the sword contest, so it is difficult to ask for sword making in the Zangjian Villa!"
Li Xiaoran didn't know that Zangjian Villa wanted to replace the "No. 1 Sword Sect in the World" in Taibai Jianshan, but he knew that every time the Eight Destiny Sword Contest was held, Zangjian Villa would always occupy several positions in the top ten, especially the last time, three of the top five were from Zangjian Villa! As the successor of Taibai Jianshan, if Lin Chen participated in the Sword Contest, his ranking would definitely not be low. The location of the Eight Destiny Sword Contest was held at Zangjian Villa. In other words, when Lin Chen participated in the Sword Contest this time, he would inevitably compete with the disciples of Zangjian Villa for rankings. Then the question is, will Zangjian Villa make swords for a competitor?
Others don’t know why they think, but Li Xiaoran believes that if Zangjian Villa knew Lin Chen’s identity, they would definitely not help Lin Chen build a sword.
As for why Lin Chen didn't take the sword from Taibai Sword Mountain, Li Xiaoran didn't ask.
Because many people know that Taibai Sword Mountain has long been declining, and although it is still called "the world's No. 1 Sword Sect", it is just because Taibai Sword Mountain has a sword immortal leader who is traveling around.
"So that's it!" Li Xiaoran figured out the key and immediately smiled: "Brother Lin, don't worry, just forging a sword. Our Tiangong Pavilion craftsmanship will never disappoint Brother Lin!"
After he finished speaking, he thought for a while and continued, "If I go back to Tiangong Pavilion, I will not be in a hurry, but I just want to go to Jingzhou City to see the so-called lay Buddhist. Brother Lin might as well go with me to have a look?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "What is Jingzhou City? Coincidentally, I was about to go, but we can really go together on the same road!"
Li Xiaoran asked, “Brother Lin is also interested in that lay Buddhist in Jiuqi?”
Although Tiangong Pavilion is not mainly about making swords, Li Xiaoran still wants to see what kind of sword is the cast by the Jiuqi lay Buddhist who was so immensely uploaded from the world?
Lin Chen thought for a while and said, "I'm a little interested, but not the whole reason."
"What is that?" Li Xiaoran was confused. He suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Lin was deliberately saying that he wanted to go to Jingzhou City to let me lead the way?"
Lin Chen shook his head and smiled and said, "How can that work? I want to escort a few people to Jingzhou City. Even if there is no news about this Jiuqi lay Buddhist, I will go."
Li Xiaoran touched his chin with one hand and smiled, "I'm starting to wonder now. What kind of person is that he actually needs Brother Lin to escort him!"
Although Li Xiaoran has never fought with Lin Chen, he has seen that Lin Chen's martial arts must be quite good when he sees Lin Chen's martial arts skills!
The successor of Taibai Jianshan, does his martial arts function have low?
