This chapter opens with a description of the sword that Gu Qingshan has brought with him. The sword is a bit long, but it's also very impressive. It's one inch long, which means that it can cut through the enemy's armor. The man who brought the sword to the boat is very impressed with the sword. He thanks the man for saving his life twice. He also says that the man didn't use his strength at all in the fight. He says that if he had to hire a bunch of soldiers to fight, he'd have to spend a lot of money and the results wouldn't be very good. He tells the man that he's a manufacturer of weapons for the Fuxi empire and that he can find him if he needs any weapons. He invites the two men to his casino. He gives each one of them a special card, which they can use to play his casino game. He promises that when they return, they'll be able to use the card for special treatment. He's not interested in the money, though, because he doesn't want to be blackmailed. The court is about to begin, and the court clerk tells the men to keep their poise as the court session starts. The clerk tells them that the court will hear the case, and that they have a chance to win back some of the money they bet on the first game. They'll have to pay the court fee, taxes, and notary's fee, but they should still have enough money to make the final decision.
