"Ka Chi!" As soon as he finished speaking, the wine cup in Li Hao's hand was crushed into pieces. His eyes were blank and dazed, as if he had just eaten a rotten persimmon.
The man in white smiled when he saw him like this."" Although I don't know much about Yutai Tower, as one of the Four Great Holy Swords, if I don't even know this, how can I travel the martial world? I've seen Bai Yun 'er once. Her appearance and figure are nothing to complain about, but she always puts on a cold expression. Even when she talks to me, she's like this.”
Li Hao's expression was extremely ugly. He smiled bitterly, but he felt much more comfortable. This was even more comfortable than bathing in the spring breeze. It was not in vain to be laughed at.
Li Hao took a sip of wine, but this time, the wine in his mouth seemed to be sweet. He smiled and said,"Why didn't you tell me earlier?”
"You didn't ask me," the man in white was stunned.”
Then, the two of them burst into laughter.
" I've told you such important information. How are you going to repay me?" the man in white asked with a smile.”
"Hmph!" Li Hao snorted and smiled,"Don't forget that I'm the one who paid for your drinks."”
The white-robed man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After a while, he slowly said,""I'm going to Miao Jiang. Where are you going?”
"Miaojiang?" Li Hao muttered to himself. After a while, his eyes lit up."I'm going to Miaojiang too. I remember Yun 'er once said that she wanted to see the Shadow Red Tree in Miaojiang. I'll go pick one for him.”
The white-robed man shook his head. He was both angry and amused by Li Hao's words."Do you think the Shadow Red Trees are cabbages? If the Stellar Hall Master finds out about this, won't he skin you alive and nail you to the Sin God Altar?”
"Shadow Red Tree? Is this thing so precious?" Li Hao asked curiously.
Bai Yi shook his head and said," I know the details. But I heard that the Shadow Red Tree is a rare thing in Miao Jiang."”
"Then let's set off now. Time is of the essence, and I have many places to go. I'm going back to my hometown, and I still have to go to Jade Terrace Tower to look for Yun 'er.”After Li Hao finished speaking, he stood up straight. The white-robed man nodded and paid the bill. The two of them walked together.
Outside the house, it was still hazy, and the entire sky seemed to be white.
The two of them walked very quickly and were the only two people on the street who did not have umbrellas. After some discussion, the two of them decided to take a boat to Miaojiang. Although it would take more than ten days, it was much more convenient than the winding journey.
Dock, riverside.
The curtain of rain fell like a curtain of pearls, and the world was covered in white light. On the rippling river, it was difficult to find a lone boat. The two of them stood at the dock and looked around. After waiting for a long time, they saw a wooden boat slowly approaching.
"Boatman, we are going to Miao Jiang.”Li Hao shouted at the riverside.
The sound of the rain continued, but there was movement on the wooden boat. Standing at the bow was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a straw raincoat and a straw hat. His gaze could not help but look over. It was a face full of elegance. The boatman sized up the two of them."It's raining heavily now. It's not easy to sail."
The two of them looked at each other and did not speak. They stood on the dock without moving.
After waiting for a while, the wooden boat finally docked at the dock. The boatman shook off the water on his body and then turned his gaze to the two of them again."The two swordsmen must be from the pugilistic world. It's quite dangerous to sail in this rainy weather.”After saying that, he looked at the two of them quietly. It was a pair of muddy eyes. Although he concealed it well, there was still a trace of anxiety in his eyes.
The white-robed man did not answer his question. He only raised his eyebrows."How much silver?"
The boatman locked the wooden boat on the dock. His expression was a little embarrassed. As he spoke, there was a faint pleading tone."I know that you two are skilled in martial arts. However, the journey to the Miaojiang is very long. The rain will never stop. Other boatmen are not willing…"
"So I asked you how much silver?" The white-robed man was a little impatient as he spoke in a stern voice.
At this time, Li Hao also smiled and thought," Don't worry, we won't rob you. We're just in a hurry, so our words are a little fierce."”
Seeing that the two of them did not fight, the boatman felt a little relieved. Then, he stretched out his hand and spread out his five fingers.
"Five taels of silver?" The white-robed man sneered. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
The boatman seemed to be anxious again. He wiped the rain off his face and then shook his head. His expression was a little awkward as he could not help but say softly,"It's fifty taels of silver." After saying that, he could not help but take a step back and carefully size up the two of them.
Li Hao and the other man raised their eyebrows and looked at each other. Li Hao then sighed,""I only have about thirty taels of silver.”
The white-robed man's expression darkened as he heard this. He seemed to be thinking about something. Then, he raised the sword in his hand. The boatman immediately felt fear and unease when he saw this. He took two steps back and was about to speak when the white-robed man spoke first. He sneered,"We don't have 50 taels of silver right now. I'll leave my Qingyun Sword with you.”
Ebony Meteoric Iron. The handle was inlaid with a gem, and it was carved with vivid white patterns twice. Even an outsider could tell that it was worth a lot.
The boatman's gaze was a little strange. Then, he glanced at the white-robed man and muttered to himself," I really don't understand you Jianghu people. I've heard that swordsmen love swords as much as their lives, but you all use your swords as collateral. Previously, I met a man in white. He gave me a broken sword and said it was some kind of Heavenly Frost Sword, as if he was rewarding me. I really don't understand why he gave me that broken sword. Your sword is not bad."”The boatman looked at the glass-like gem on the hilt with a smile.
Hearing this, the two of them couldn't care less about the boatman's expression. They couldn't help but look at each other. Seeing the other party's shocked expression, the white-robed man suddenly said,"You have the Skyfrost Sword?”
The boatman suddenly raised his head and saw the two people's excited expressions. He was a little puzzled and then nodded."Yes, in the back of my ship."
"Can you show us?" Li Hao asked. Although his words were like this, his tone did not seem to leave any room for negotiation.
The boatman saw that the two of them were a little agitated and could not help but nod. He turned around and went to the back of the ship to search.
Where do you think Bai Rushuang is going?" Li Hao muttered.
The man in white shook his head."He is mysterious and unpredictable.”
As the two of them were talking, the boatman had already walked over. His rough hands were holding two broken swords. The sword was covered in rain and some other things, but it did not affect its color.
