Chapter 491
He took the sword from Xiao Ke, held it in his hand, and raised it to the height of his belly.

That sword was the heaviest sword Xiao Yu had ever encountered so far.

The scabbard was inlaid with countless fine ruby ​​and emeralds, shining brightly under the light of the candlelight from the open fire of the martial arts hall.

The complex patterned totems unique to the Miao royal family are paved with these bright red and emeralds on this scabbard.

The handle is wrapped with thin velvet, making it extremely soft and comfortable to hold in your hand.

In terms of appearance and weight, such a sword is exquisitely crafted, gorgeous and noble, and is obviously more suitable for collection and viewing than for fighting.

Withdrew a step back slightly, and pulled a distance of one person away from Gu Yuqing and Xiao Ke. Xiao Yu held the scabbard in one hand, and slowly pulled out the sword with the other.

In contrast to its magnificent appearance, the blade of the sword is just ordinary, not even sharp, and its lethality is probably not as good as a rusty kitchen knife.

The only surprising thing is that this sword is a broken sword.

The originally long sword blade was cut off at the waist.

Seeing Xiao Yu's sword body and scabbard completely separated, Xiao Ke couldn't help but said: "Although the blade of this sword is not sharp and even a bit blunt, the iron used to make it is the best pig iron. How could it be waist-deep?" Cut it off!”

What Xiao Ke said is true, when casting this sword, the materials used are the toughest and toughest, and in order to highlight the weight, the blade of this sword is thicker than all other swords.

The scorching and jumping candlelight reflected on its silver-frosted body, focusing on the neat fractures without any cracks at the sword head. Xiao Yu frowned and thought for a moment, and said: "In the whole world, there is no one who can kill The only one that can be cut off so cleanly is the one hanging in my father's study room!"

Too much?

She has never seen the power of the Tai'a sword, but she has read about its legend in ancient books.

According to legend, during the Spring and Autumn Period, the Jin State sent troops to attack Chu, mobilized the entire country's troops, and besieged the capital of Chu for three years, just to obtain the Chu State's national treasure: Tai'a Sword.

Everyone says that the Tai'a Sword was forged by two great swordsmen, Ou Yezi and Ganjiang.But the two masters didn't think so. They said that the Tai'a sword, the sword of the princes, had already existed, but it was invisible and traceless, but the sword energy had already existed between the heaven and the earth, and they only waited for the opportunity to gather together. When the three paths are unified, this sword is completed.

Such a sword that brought together the opportunities of heaven and earth was actually connected in the Chu Kingdom. Naturally, the Jin Dynasty monarch was displeased and wanted to keep it for himself.

However, the reason for seizing the sword was, in the end, just wanting to use this reason to completely eliminate the Chu State.

The big country mobilizes the power of the whole country to besiege the small country.Due to the disparity in military strength, most of the cities of Chu State fell quickly and the capital was surrounded by groups, trapped for three years.The food and grass in the city are exhausted, there are no soldiers left, and the danger is at stake.

The Jin State sent an envoy to issue an ultimatum: If the sword is not handed over again, the city will be captured tomorrow.

The King of Chu was unyielding and ordered you to go to the city to kill the enemy tomorrow. If the city is destroyed, you will kill yourself with this sword. Then you will pick up the sword, ride a horse to Taihu Lake, sink the sword to the bottom of the lake, and let Tai A Jian will stay in Chu Kingdom forever.

At dawn the next day, the king of Chu climbed to the top of the city, only to see Jin soldiers and horses covering the sky outside the city, and his capital was like a flat boat in the ocean, which was in danger of being destroyed at any time.

The soldiers and horses of the state of Jin began to attack the city, and the shouts were like a mountain roaring and a tsunami, and the city was about to fall.

The king of Chu held the sword in both hands, drew the sword out of its sheath, and pointed the sword directly at the enemy.

At the moment when the sharp sword pointed directly at the Chu army under the city, an incredible and shocking miracle happened.

A ball of majestic sword energy shot out from Tai'a's body. Suddenly, sand and rocks flew outside the city, covering the sky and the sun. It seemed like a beast was roaring among them. Jin's soldiers and horses were in chaos. After a while, flags fell to the ground, blood flowed for thousands of miles, and the entire army was wiped out. .

The whole process takes just a blink of an eye!
Since then, Tai'a Sword has become famous in one battle and has become more and more valued by various countries.

It is said that the Tai'a sword is the sword of the king, and only a true king can possess it.

Such a divine sword, Gu Yuqing only regarded it as a mythical story recorded in historical materials, but he didn't expect to hear such words from Xiao Yu's mouth today.

The extremely large sword hanging in His Majesty's Imperial Study Room is actually Tai'a!

Although it is unbelievable, she still has a poisonous tongue jade "Tianji" hanging around her waist, which can talk, eat and drink. So what is impossible!
Thinking of the description of Tai'a's power in historical materials, although it has a mythological tone, it will not cause the sword energy to fly sand and rocks, but such a divine object is probably more than enough to cut off the thick sword in front of him.

"Although Tai'a is mighty, it cannot be said that the one who cut it off must be Tai'a." Gu Yuqing looked at the half-cut sword raised by Xiao Yu and said: "If it is really Tai'a, doesn't it mean that it was His Majesty who cut it off?" Broke my father’s sword?”

As he said that, Gu Yuqing shook his head, "Impossible."

"Of course it is impossible for my father to cut off the Marquis's sword, but what if this sword does not belong to the Marquis? What if the owner of this sword and the thing in the rosewood box you got in the small garden are the same person? Woolen cloth?"

While speaking, Xiao Yu raised his hand holding the scabbard, intending to stand up the scabbard side by side with the body of the broken sword, and put it under the candlelight for a closer look, but only when the scabbard was about to tilt, he could see it from inside Slide out a silk handkerchief.

The silk handkerchief was soft and light, and it fluttered to the ground as soon as it was taken out of the scabbard.

This sudden thing immediately attracted everyone's attention and made people's hearts tremble. Before the silk handkerchief landed on the ground, Xiao Ke reached out, picked it up, brought it to Gu Yuqing, and handed it over.

The texture of the silk handkerchief is ice silk. Although it is expensive, it is not rare. Nowadays, the wealthy officials in Beijing have one or two in their hands in the hot summer.

The patterns embroidered on it are just the common red plum blossoms, nothing different.

Just next to the red plum, there is a line of words. The handwriting is clank and the color is burning. The deep red color is more eye-catching than the bright red of the red plum. Looking at the writing, Gu Yuqing, Xiao Yu and Xiao Ke all said the same thing. .

"This is my father's handwriting!"

How can the hatred between the country and the family be eliminated?
The powerful words written in blood were written by Gu Zhen one by one.

Gu Yuqing squeezed the silk handkerchief and couldn't help but tremble. What kind of hatred could make her father write such a bloody letter on this silk handkerchief.

Whose silk handkerchief is this? Whose blood was used to write the blood book.

What exactly happened then.

Does it have anything to do with the red sandalwood box hidden in her room?

Is it really Tai'a in the emperor's study who cut off this sword?

Problems are like mountain torrents, coming in waves regardless of front or back.

Gu Yuqing looked at Xiao Yu, "It is really Tai'a's masterpiece. The emperor must know what happened at that time." As he said that, Gu Yuqing's eyes moved slightly and he said: "After all, that thing is used to seal the mouth. His Majesty's royal use!"
