v2 Chapter 302： Nara tea with grilled catfish (2/2)

Talking to her, she trot to the gate and opened the door. Standing outside was a couple who seemed strange.

”What's the matter for the two?” Xiaoshan asked.

The master had not spoken yet, and his wife had fallen on his knees and shouted a benefactor.

”Hmm?” Koyama Akira was a little confused.

Fortunately, the host explained at this time, ”We are the parents of Chiyo. You saved two little girls at the market a few days ago, one of which was our daughter.”

”Oh, that thing, don't worry about it, just raise your hand.” Koyama Qian was a little embarrassed, and she also saw Chiyo hiding behind her parents, who seemed to be shy holding the box.

The host took the box in her hand and stuffed it in Koyama's hand. ”I know that there is no reward for life-saving grace, but I hope you can accept this little gift.”

Koyama Akane opened the box and saw a rib in it.

”The ancestor is Ise's famous blacksmith, but ashamed to say that in my generation, I can only hit some farm tools. Fortunately, there is a family-run short knife left. I hope you can use it.” The master said.

”This is so precious. Since it is the property of the ancestors, it is better to stay in your hands.” Koyama Qian pushed back.

”No, no, we are not warriors. Even if we put it in the house, we just make it dusty. It is better to give it to those who need it. If it is you, I believe that it can be used well.” Seeing Koyama Akane refused, the male owner was also anxious ~ ~ pulled his daughter to kneel on the ground like his wife.

When Zhang Heng heard the noise outside the door, thinking that the people of the Changzhou Fan came again, he dropped the bowl and chopsticks and walked out of the dojo, only to see the scene in front of him.

Xiao Chiyo seemed to be a little surprised to see him. He didn't expect that he was still living with Xiaoshan Qian, and his eyes moved curiously about Xiaoshan Qian and Zhang Heng, probably guessing the relationship between the two in his heart.

In the end, Akane Akane still couldn't stand the couple of blacksmiths and had to accept the cost difference, so the three members of the family left with gratitude.

Koyama Akane stood at the door of the dojo with the short knife, and seemed to be evoked some memories, looking down and thinking about something.

Zhang Heng didn't bother her, only a moment later she raised her head and said, ”Sorry, remembering some of what my father said before, Xiao Xiaoming's heart is on the offensive, because everyone has something in his heart. The thing you want to protect is the sword weapon, but if you use it well, you can save people. This is probably why he opened the dojo. Today, I understand this sentence better. ”

”Can I see it?” Zhang Heng reached out and took the rib from Xiaoshan Qian's hand.

It is slightly lighter than the ordinary short knife. Although it has been a certain number of years to build it, it is well maintained. The blade is still sharp. Using the jade technique, the iron sand is first smelted into iron in a furnace, and then crushed with iron. It can be regarded as a good knife by melting into iron bars and continuously beating.

”If you like it, take it.” Xiaoshan Qian said, she had noticed that Zhang Heng had only an old sword and no ribs.

Of course, the rib difference is not too common compared to the sword and the sword. In most cases, it is used for emergency after the samurai loses the sword or sword, or is used to break armor and fight in narrow places.
