Anyway, it smells nice, and it’s smooth to the touch.

In the afternoon, after Jiang He finished moving bricks, Xu Qing eagerly wanted to learn sword techniques. While Tangshou Quan could enhance physical fitness, a three-foot-long sword was the perfect prop to show off and fulfill a martial arts dream.

"Zhao guest adorned with a fine turban, the Wu Gou blade gleams like frost and snow. In ten steps, a man falls; over a thousand miles, none remain."

Although one couldn't casually swing a sword at people these days, it was fine to imagine oneself dressed in flowing white robes, standing atop a mountain peak, sighing deeply: “The world… has changed.”

Then, the sound of swords would rise, and a single strike would illuminate nineteen provinces.

Speaking of swords, Xu Qing's favorite was the description in The Sword of the Third Young Master—Yan Shisan's fifteenth strike. It was a move transcending the limits of nature, an undefeated technique, but when executed, it caused an unexpected reversal: Yan Shisan used it to kill himself because it was too fearsome.
