Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15837 Weird

There was a female cultivator standing at the counter. As soon as she saw Qin Luo, she smiled. Then, the female cultivator who had led Qin Luo over said to the female cultivator behind the counter, "This customer wants to sell a magic artifact. Could you take a look?"

The female cultivator behind the counter responded, "Yes." Then she turned to Qin Luo and said, "Esteemed guest, please take out the magical artifact you wish to sell so I can have a look at it."

Qin Luo responded, and then with a flick of his hand, a long knife appeared in his hand. This long knife was just an ordinary ox-tail knife, nothing special. It was also clear that the knife had been used for some time, as there were some scratches on the blade. However, it was also clear that the owner of the knife took good care of it, as the knife was cleaned very well and had been maintained.

Qin Luo handed the longsword to the female cultivator, who took it and examined it carefully before saying, "It's a bull-tail sword produced by our Demon Blade Sect, in 70% new condition. We can buy it back at 60% of the original price. Do you agree, sir?"

Qin Luo nodded and said, "Okay." The female cultivator then put the long sword back and gave Qin Luo the spirit stones. Long swords like this were produced by their sect, so the price was the same. Therefore, she didn't need to tell Qin Luo how many spirit stones he could get for the sword, because they all knew the price.

Qin Luo accepted the spirit stone, then turned to the woman standing to the side and said, "I want to have another longsword made. Take me there."

The female cultivator responded and then led Qin Luo up to the second floor. The second floor was decorated differently from the first floor. There was a large counter on the second floor, and some people were sitting inside. However, these people looked quite old, and there were very few people there.

The female cultivator led Qin Luo to the counter and said to a cultivator who looked to be in his forties, "Elder Cui, this guest would like to order a long sword."

Elder Cui glanced at Qin Luo, then stood up and said, "Esteemed guest, what kind of longsword would you like to order?"

Qin Luo said, "I want to customize a bull-tail knife, three feet long and weighing about seven pounds, but I require that this piece of shadow ore be added to the knife." After saying that, Qin Luo took out the piece of shadow ore and placed it on the counter.

Elder Cui picked up the piece of Shadow Ore and examined it. Then he said, "It's fine, no problem. Please hold this, guest." With that, Elder Cui moved his hand, and a long sword appeared in his hand. This long sword was in the style of an Ox-Tail Sword, but it was made of a special material. This material looked like a kind of mud, which was very special.

This was Qin Luo's first time ordering a longsword. Although his previous longsword was also purchased from the Demon Blade Sect, it wasn't custom-made. So, this was the first time he had ever seen a longsword like this. He nodded, grasped the longsword, and then he heard Elder Cui say, "The guest can hold this longsword and swing it a few times."

Qin Luo nodded again, then gripped the long sword tightly. As soon as he gripped it, he felt that the hilt of the long sword was soft yet had a bit of hardness. After gripping the hilt, he felt that it was very comfortable to hold and easier to wield.

After he brandished it a few times, Elder Cui said, "That's enough, guest. Please put it down." Qin Luo nodded and put the long sword down. Elder Cui said, "This long sword is a pre-molded sword. The force with which you grip the hilt will leave a mark on it. We will design a hilt for you based on that mark."

Qin Luo then understood what was going on, and he immediately said, "Thank you."

Elder Cui smiled and said, "That should be right. Please pay a deposit here, and you can pick up the sword in seven days." Qin Luo nodded, then took out spirit stones and gave them to Elder Cui. After accepting the spirit stones, Elder Cui took out a wooden token and gave it to Qin Luo, saying, "This wooden token is your proof of identity for picking up the sword. Please keep it safe, otherwise, if you lose it, you won't be able to pick it up. Here, we only recognize tokens, not people."

Qin Luo nodded and carefully put away the wooden plaque. Then, accompanied by the female cultivator, he walked out. Just as they reached the stairs, they saw a disciple of the Demon Blade Sect carrying several swords upstairs. These swords were clearly newly forged, looking very new, and they were obviously already sharpened, with the blades gleaming coldly.

Qin Luo glanced at the man, then moved aside and headed downstairs. But when he reached the Demon Blade Sect cultivator, he froze, his expression changing. He was about to speak, but seeing the Demon Blade Sect disciple's calm demeanor, he swallowed his words. Qin Luo carefully examined the disciple before continuing downstairs. The main reason for Qin Luo's astonishment was that he had noticed the longsword the cultivator was holding had a blade that had already cut the man's arm, quite deeply. However, to Qin Luo's surprise, the cultivator seemed to feel nothing, and there was no bleeding. This was what astonished Qin Luo the most.

It was because of this discovery that Qin Luo realized something was wrong. Under normal circumstances, this situation would only occur in corpse refinement. You should know that there are also people in the Hell Gate who specialize in corpse refinement. Those refined corpses are incredibly strong and impervious to blades and spears. Even if they are injured, they will not feel pain or bleed, just like the disciples of the Demon Blade Sect.

However, corpses are different from humans. Corpses are corpses that have been refined by humans. Although they still retain a human form, they look completely different. Generally, they are strangely shaped, and you can tell at a glance that they are corpses.

The disciple from the Demon Blade Sect just now looked like a normal person, even breathing. How could Qin Luo not be surprised? A living person, yet his body was like a corpse being refined. Wasn't that strange? Because of this, Qin Luo didn't say anything. He felt that the disciple from the Demon Blade Sect was suspicious, but he didn't want to cause trouble. He knew very well that only by avoiding trouble could one live a long life, so he just wanted to leave the Demon Blade Hall.

Thinking of this, Qin Luo quickened his pace and soon left the Demon Blade Hall. He didn't even pay attention to the female cultivator's greeting. After leaving the Demon Blade Hall, Qin Luo immediately moved as far away as possible and found a place to watch over the Demon Blade Hall. He wanted to see if anything had happened to the Nine Blades Hall. He suspected that the Demon Blade Sect disciple was a corpse in disguise, who wanted to attack the Demon Blade Hall.

However, after waiting outside the Demon Blade Hall for a while, he didn't see anything happen there, which made Qin Luo curious. He looked around and then went directly to the inn closest to the Demon Blade Hall and went inside.

As soon as he entered the inn, a waiter immediately came up to him and bowed to Qin Luo, saying, "Greetings, sir. Are you looking for a place to stay?"

Qin Luo nodded and said, "Get me a room, preferably one on the street."

The waiter immediately said, "Yes, sir, this way please." He then led Qin Luo to the counter, where a manager was sitting. The waiter said to the manager, "Manager, room number five, section A."

The shopkeeper nodded, then took out an iron plaque and placed it on the counter. This iron plaque was like a key, because each room here had a defensive array. Although the defensive array might not be very good, it could at least serve as a warning. The iron plaque was the key to enter and exit; without it, one could not enter the room.

Qin Luo picked up the iron plaque and followed the waiter upstairs. His room was on the second floor. Soon, Qin Luo arrived at his room. He pressed the iron plaque against the door, and a faint light flashed on the door before disappearing. Qin Luo pushed the door open and went straight inside.

The waiter stood at the door and asked Qin Luo, "Sir, would you like some hot water, or anything else?"

Qin Luo shook his head and said, "No need. I'll call you if I need anything." The waiter acknowledged and then turned to leave.

After the waiter left, Qin Luo carefully examined the room. It was a small suite with a living room in the outer room. In the middle of the living room was an eight-immortal table and four benches. Apart from that, there was nothing else. The room was very clean.

Qin Luo walked to the window and opened it. As soon as he opened the window, he could see the Demon Blade Hall not far away. Qin Luo breathed a sigh of relief. Then he went to take a look at the bedroom inside and found that there was only a bed and a small wardrobe. There was nothing else. There were no toiletries here, which was normal. The clothes worn by cultivators usually had dust-removing functions. In other words, when they wore those clothes, they didn't need to wash their faces or anything. The magic built into the clothes could help them clean themselves.

Although the room was simple, Qin Luo was very happy because its location was perfect. He wanted to stay here and watch over the Demon Blade Hall. He wanted to see if anything bad had happened to them. So, after checking the room, he sat by the window and opened it slightly, just enough to see the Demon Blade Hall. He sat there quietly, watching the Demon Blade Hall. He was determined to find out what was going on with that Demon Blade Hall disciple and why he hadn't bled despite being cut.

Several hours passed before the Demon Blade Hall closed its doors. All the Demon Blade Sect disciples came out of the hall, greeted each other, and left. When Qin Luo saw the disciple who had been cut by a knife, he stood up in shock, looking utterly incredulous. He saw the Demon Blade Sect disciple who had been cut but wasn't bleeding talking loudly to another Demon Blade Sect disciple beside him; he could faintly hear their voices.
