Jiang Che's words and Corporal Li Xian's behavior really moved Deng Yan, and he quickly expressed his stance:

"Your Excellency treats me like this, and I, Deng Yan, will repay you with death in the future. I don't seek any position as deputy commander, but I only hope to serve by your Excellency's side in the future."

As he said that, he also picked up the knife, opened his palm, and let the blood flow into the wine bowl. Then he raised his hand in respect, and then he was about to drink it all, but Jiang Che raised his hand to hold it down.

What a joke, he finally tricked the sword cultivator into getting the blood from his palm, how could he let Deng Yan drink it again?

"grown ups?"

Deng Yan was puzzled and looked at Jiang Che with a frown.

"You and I are brothers, how can we drink alone? We swore an oath of blood, and from then on we share weal and woe." Jiang Che stared at him sincerely, then took the other's wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

But in fact, while hiding his face, he quickly stored the bowl of wine into the sky monument space.

"Share honor and disgrace together!"

Deng Yan nodded heavily, picked up Jiang Che's bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

At this point, the relationship between the two parties was extremely harmonious. The four of them exchanged glasses and quickly drank up the jar of wine they had brought. Then Jiang Che asked Huzi to buy some more wine and meat nearby.

"Now that this adult has entered my home, he deserves to be bought by me."

Deng Yan was a little ashamed.

"You and me, brothers, don't care about this."

Jiang Che waved his hand, indicating that the other party didn't need to care.

He made a bargain this time.

It is true that with Jiang Che's current status, it is not too difficult to obtain the blood from the palms of the sword cultivators in the Inner Breath Realm, but it will always take some trouble and time.

But now, he can do it with just a few words. At the same time, he also has Deng Yan, a strong player, under his command, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

That day, the four of them drank until dusk.

"Old Deng, I see that there are so many broken knives in your house, are they all accumulated by you over the years?"

Jiang Che looked at the things in the room with a reddish complexion.

"Yes, this wooden sword is mine."

"This is what I once had"

Deng Yan introduced Jiang Che to some situations when he was practicing martial arts. He was very happy today. Not only did he resolve his grudge with Jiang Che, but the two sides were also very opportunistic.

"Actually, I am also a lover of swords. I especially like these broken weapons. They are witnesses of a warrior's practice. It's a pity that my family fell into decline and I didn't care about those objects. Now they have been lost."

Jiang Che was going to catch Deng Yan and get another handful of wool.

"Your Majesty, you also use knives every day. Could you please give me some advice?"

There was a slight surprise in Deng Yan's eyes. He was usually a sword fanatic and liked to fight with others. Jiang Che was better than him. He subconsciously thought that Jiang Che's sword skills were better than his.

Quite excited to try it out.

Jiang Che coughed twice and waved his hands casually:

"It's just a basic knowledge of sword skills."

"This is the first time I have seen your master's standing skills. I think the same goes for his sword skills. I really hope you can point out my shortcomings."

Deng Yan said quickly.

He didn't believe Jiang Chelue's prevarication of being proficient in sword skills.

I just felt that Jiang Che disliked his weak sword skills.

"It's natural to compete, but your arm is injured and it's not appropriate to do it. How about we compete again after you recover?" Jiang Che understood that after the sacrifice, his sword skills would greatly improve.

It's better to lay the groundwork now.

It also saves people from being too shocked.

Geniuses are valued, but not necessarily if they become monsters.

Because his talent is really average, he can quickly master all kinds of martial arts, all relying on sacrifice.

At least until he loses the strength to protect himself, such a shocking 'martial arts' talent should be concealed a little.

Otherwise, if people realize that he has never practiced martial arts at all, but can learn various martial arts without a teacher, some people will definitely pay attention.

"Okay, let's wait until my subordinate recovers and then we can discuss it again."

Deng Yan's eyes were slightly disappointed.

Jiang Che was thinking about how to get Deng Yan to give him a few broken knives, but unexpectedly the other party spoke immediately:

"If you like it, sir, you can just take it. I won't be able to use these knives anyway."

It's not that Deng Yan is uneducated, it's just that his heart is not here. It can be seen that he seems to be very interested in the long knife on the shelf.

"Then Jiang will be disrespectful."

Jiang Che nodded and agreed immediately.

After leaving Deng Yan's home, the sky had completely darkened. Jiang Che asked Geng Dabiao to go back and rest, while he followed Xu Chenghu back to a courtyard rented by Xu San'er in Xicheng.

The two kinds of sacrifices have been collected, and now it is time to get the last wind grass.

The yard Xu Saner rented was not large, with only three rooms. One room was where he and his wife lived, one room was where Xu Chenghu and his younger brother lived, and the last room was used as a kitchen.

Jiang Che also met Xu Saner's wife for the first time.

He was less than forty years old, but his face was extremely old and wrinkled. His eyes were a little timid, and he didn't dare to look at him. He just lowered his head and poured water.

"Commander, why are you here?"

Xu Saner rubbed his hands, feeling a little nervous.

"It's okay. I just came with Huzi to take a look."

Jiang Che smiled.

"Huzi followed you, didn't you cause any trouble?"

Xu Saner looked a little nervous.

"You're not causing trouble. By the way, have you done what I asked you to do today?" Jiang Che quickly changed the subject.

"It's done, it's done, just wait."

Xu Saner immediately got up and went back to the house, taking out a black cloth package, which contained exactly a dozen blast grasses.

"I thought I would send it to you early tomorrow morning. If I knew you were in a hurry, I would..." Xu San'er is a good person and quickly guessed Jiang Che's purpose of sending Hu Zi.

Then he handed the remaining money back to Jiang Che.

However, Jiang Che didn't accept this and just took the blast grass.

The wind grass was not precious, but it was hard to find. He could guess that Xu San'er probably spent a whole day running to find it, and the remaining silver was less than two taels, so he thought it was all for his hard work.

But that cannot be said for the reason.

"This money should be used as housing expenses for you and Hu Zi. You should buy more meat for Hu Zi to supplement your health. If a martial arts practitioner lacks Qi and blood, he will suffer more and more losses as he practices."

"I noted it down."

"By the way, I asked you to find a house before, how did it go?"

"I found it, but the price is a bit high. I thought I'd let it sit for a few days and lower the price before reporting it to you."

"I can rest assured that you will do the work."

Jiang Che nodded slightly, and then stayed at Xu's house for a while before saying goodbye.

Return to the inn.

Jiang Che sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes.

His mind sank into the sky monument space.

[Sacrifice target: Liangfeng's sword power is small. 】

[The price of the sacrifice: Ten drops of blood from the palm of the sword cultivator of the Inner Breath Realm, three broken handles of rusty swords, ten blades of wind grass, and half a year's lifespan. Do you want to sacrifice? 】

The wind grass, the blood in the inner breath realm sword cultivator's palm, and the three rusty broken knives were all placed neatly one by one.

Then, Jiang Che had a thought in his mind.

【Sacrifice! 】
