Chapter 266 A Scimitar

 Chapter 274 A Scimitar

After the iron bridge was completed, Li Zhuo walked up and tried it out. He felt that it was quite strong and there was no problem at all.

It's not the kind of tofu bridge that will collapse if a few more third brothers walk on it.

He walked under the banyan tree and raised his head to communicate with it:

"Brother Shu, I have completed the task you assigned me. Now there is an iron bridge available here. The Khasi people will definitely not come to torment you. Are you satisfied? Are there any other wishes that I need to fulfill?"

The leaves of the banyan tree rustled, as if expressing gratitude:

"Thank you, human brother, you have helped me a lot. I can grow up in peace in the future. I am very satisfied. I have no other wishes at the moment."

"That's good. I wish you can be a big but useless tree with a long life in the future."

The banyan tree once again conveyed the meaning of gratitude.

Li Zhuo then asked:

"So, Brother Shu, can you tell me where that valuable item is?"

The banyan tree soon experienced mental fluctuations:

"Of course, its location is in the mountains behind. You can find it yourself and I will share the picture with you."

Then a mental wave rushed into Li Zhuo's mind. He saw a gray-white picture in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, and noticed that in the picture, a small stream had a small hole on the ridge where it flowed.

There was something buried in the soil inside, and I felt that it was a metal object, narrow and long.

After receiving this picture, Li Zhuo hesitated.

He shook his head and rejected the idea of ​​​​getting the treasure alone. If a tiger or black bear suddenly jumped out halfway, he might burp.

In India, this is not impossible.

Forget it, let’s go into the mountain as a team, just to use the remote treasure-obtaining function of the incense burner again.

Li Zhuo quickly returned to the village, took his guide, got on the elephant, and entered the mountain under the command of the mahout.

When the villagers learned that he was going to see the scenery, they spontaneously sent two men to follow him with wooden sticks to protect him.

When crossing the bridge, just in case, Li Zhuo did not dare to sit on the elephant, but let the elephant cross the bridge one by one, and then walked over.

Fortunately, the newly built bridge is still quite strong, and a few elephants passed without any problems.

Sitting on the back of the elephant, they continued walking up the mountain.

The woods here are dense, the air is moist and fresh, and there is almost no pollution. It is a rare natural oxygen bar.

The higher you go up, the steeper the mountain becomes, and the elephant can no longer climb it at the back.

Li Zhuo got off the elephant and climbed up the mountain under the guidance of the guide and two villagers.

They were familiar with this area and had a better understanding of the habits of wild animals such as cobras. Therefore, under their guidance, Li Zhuo successfully reached the ridge.

Okay, here, Li Zhuo can clearly feel that the locked treasure is already within one kilometer of him.

He silently recited "collect" in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, and then saw the incense burner in the sea of ​​​​consciousness shaking slightly, and then a red thread jumped out from it, instantly hooking the locked treasure.

The next moment, the incense burner shook again, the red line retracted, and the treasure also appeared in the incense burner instantly.

This process all happened covertly and did not alert others at all.

After the treasure arrives, the goal has been completed.

Li Zhuo then simply looked at the mountain scenery and the plain scenery for a while. He could see that in the distant sky, there were always gloomy clouds.

The terrain of this place is quite unique. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with a depression in the middle, a bit like a funnel.

This may be the reason why it rains so much here.

After seeing the scenery, Li Zhuo stopped climbing the mountain because he was tired. Instead, he walked back. After meeting the mahout and the others, they headed down the mountain together.

After returning to the village in Pingdi, Li Zhuo went to a villager's house for a meal, and then left 5,000 rubles for the meal with his host before embarking on the journey back to Shillong, the capital of Bangkok.

After arriving in the city, he gave the hiring fee to the elephant team and the guide, and everyone expressed their gratitude happily.

That night he rested for the night at the Marriott Court Hotel in Shillong.

The next day, he got on a plane and flew to New Delhi first, and then flew directly from New Delhi to Bangkok.

The flight time from Shillong to New Delhi is more than two hours, and the flight time from New Delhi to Bangkok is 4.5 hours. In addition, there are various formalities in the middle and waiting time for departure.

It took him almost a day to finally arrive in Bangkok.

After returning to Bangkok, Li Zhuo did not go to the villa in Thonglor Soi 49, but first went to the Oriental Mandarin Apartments on the banks of the Chao Phraya River.

It's still the rainy season in Bangkok, and it's raining heavily outside. This apartment is also a little damp, but the overall tidying up is quite tidy. Nana probably comes to visit occasionally.

Li Zhuo returned to the bedroom, summoned the incense burner, and then took out the treasure he got in Meghalaya.

This is a short scimitar with a relatively large curve. Even if it is stained with dirt, the blade of this scimitar is not rusty and looks very sharp.

Li Zhuo looked carefully and found that there was a sharp stripe in the middle of the scimitar, running through the entire blade.

Could this be a type of Damascus knife?

If its blade just looks sharp, then its handle looks precious.

The material of the grip is black buffalo horn, which is wrapped in gold and inlaid with small particles of red coral, turquoise and red sapphire. You can tell it is very expensive just by looking at it.

The only pity is that its scabbard is lost.

If it still exists, it is probably more expensive because the scabbard should be the same as the handle, made of gold and inlaid with gems.

Li Zhuo carefully wiped the scimitar with a wet paper towel to remove the dirt on the surface.

It really became more and more beautiful the more he looked at it, he couldn’t put it down.

After admiring it, he called Zheng Kun and asked him to come over.

Zheng Kun was still in Phuket. After answering the phone, he knew that there was business to be done, so he hurriedly flew over.

More than an hour later, the two met in Li Zhuo's apartment.

In Zheng Kun's expectant eyes, Li Zhuo took out the scimitar from the bedroom.

Zheng Kun looked at it carefully and said:

"What a good thing. This is a Damascus scimitar. It is made of Utz steel and has obvious Muhammad patterns. Judging from the decorative features of its handle, this must be something that a great noble or a wealthy general can afford.



Li Zhuo replied:

"Yes, this is a treasure of a local prince in India. It is more than a hundred years old. Unfortunately, the scabbard is gone."

After hearing this, Zheng Kun said:

"That's right. Although this kind of scimitar is called Damascus scimitar, it is actually produced in Iran, India, and Turkey. Of course, the styles of scimitars in each place are also slightly different. The characteristic of the scimitar made in India is its ingenious design.

The decoration is luxurious. It is a pity that the scabbard is gone. If it were a complete set, judging from the exquisiteness of the handle, it would not be of ordinary value."

Li Zhuo also felt very sorry, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Zheng Kun looked at it carefully for a while and finally said:

"It's really beautiful. If that's the case, then I'll find someone to sell it. This thing should be sold at a good price."

Li Zhuo nodded and said:

"Okay, ship the goods as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

"Don't worry."

Zheng Kun carefully put the machete into a box, then put the box into his backpack, then said goodbye and left.

After handing the things to Zheng Kun, Li Zhuo relaxed now.

He felt a little tired, and then climbed into bed and went to sleep.

Before going to bed, he sent a message to Nana saying that he was back.

When he was sleeping soundly, Nana hurried to the Oriental Mandarin Apartment.

After not seeing each other for a few days, she was happy and excited. When she opened the bedroom door, she found that Li Zhuo was sleeping.

She carefully closed the door again and walked in the living room for a while to calm down.

After calming down, Nana felt sleepy and wanted to sleep.

So he opened the door, quietly climbed into bed, and curled up next to Li Zhuo.

With Li Zhuo around, she felt peaceful and peaceful in her heart and relaxed physically and mentally. She quietly pulled one of Li Zhuo's fingers, closed her eyes and fell asleep soon.
