Chapter 195: Ah Tie didn't leave
The wind was miserable, the wind was strong, the rain was heavy, and the night was already very deep!
Ah Tie will not come back.
The girl was trembling by the wind, and the old man wanted to close the door, but she stopped her: "Father, just wait." ”
"Alas!" the old man sighed helplessly, and took out a cotton coat from the room and draped it over her.
The sound of the wind and rain was like a ghost crying wolf, the rain had been blown into the house by the wind, the typhoon was about to start, and the old man had to go and close the door.
The old man said, "He won't come back." He walked to the door.
"Father, I know that Brother Ah Tie won't come back, but in this weather, I'm worried that he will be out alone......" The girl couldn't continue, because she didn't dare to imagine that the typhoon on the island, after all, could even sweep away houses.
"Xin'er, you should understand that Ah Tie is not an ordinary person, since he is gone, he will have his means of self-defense. ”
"I hope so......"
The old man walked to the door, the wind was already blowing him hard, he tried hard to close the door, and when the door was halfway closed, the wind passed through the crack in the door, and it became more violent, and the old man was almost blown to the ground!
Long Yuxin had already heard something strange and said with concern: "Father, be careful." ”
The old man did not answer, nor did he close the door, for, through the crack in the door, he saw a man, a vague figure carrying a heavy load in the wind and rain.
Long Yuxin knew about the abnormality, she listened carefully, and the faint footsteps in the wind and rain had been heard by her unusually sensitive hearing.
In fact, she still has tears on her face.
But she laughed.
She knew it was him back.
When the figure was near, the old man had already discovered that it was Ah Tie! He was carrying a big eye-catching insect on his shoulder, a firewood knife in his waist, and a bulging burlap bag on his back.
His shoes were also worn out, and he thought he had walked a lot.
"Ah Tie, you ......" The old man didn't speak for a long time, he was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
Ah Tie walked to the door, and the old man opened the door. He went into the house, threw the tiger carcass on the ground, and put down the sack, which was full of prey.
Without waiting for the frightened old man to speak, Long Yuxin's voice came with some excitement, and said, "Brother Ah Tie, you can make me worry about death." ”
Ah Tie looked at the girl's red and swollen eyes and undried tears, and he knew that she was crying.
"Yuxin, Ah Tie has made you worried...... Ah Tie blamed himself very much.
"Brother Ah Tie, what did you bring back?" Long Yuxin walked forward and touched the furry tiger body, she knew that it must be a big prey.
The old man's voice came, saying, "Xin'er, that's the tiger that Ah Tie beat back!"
The girl withdrew her hand, she was very frightened! It was the overlord of the deep forest, and she didn't expect Ah Tie to be able to beat it to death.
The old man asked the girl to prepare the meal, Ah Tie changed his clothes, and after eating, it was already late.
Ah Tie's harvest this hunt was very large, and the next day, the storm had been raining until noon, and it was only a little smaller, taking advantage of this opportunity, the old man and Ah Tie went out.
Despite the rain, they went door to door to deliver game to 30 families in the village, and of course, many people were very grateful! This kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can afford to eat.
After this incident, the villagers' views on Ah Tie have changed slightly, and they are no longer as afraid as before.
Of course, he knew that this was the old man's intention.
The old man and Ah Tie returned home and saw that there was someone in the house, it was two young people, that is
Two brothers, Dalong and Xiaolong in the east of the village.
They sent some vegetables and grains, as well as two large jars of wine, such a valuable gift, presumably there must be something to ask for?
The two brothers were twenty years old, and the youngest was eighteen, and they were born with great strength, and their parents were not too old in their forties, and the family had a large labor force, so they were the richest families in the village.
When Long Yuxin walked out of the firewood room first, she made a table of meals, on weekdays, this is a life that can't be opened during the New Year, but the arrival of Ah Tie is nothing.
"Brother Ah Tie, the two brothers Dalong and Xiaolong have sent some food and wine, and they said they want to find you. ”
Ah Tie was very puzzled, the two brothers had never crossed paths with him, what did they do when they braved the wind and rain to come to him at this time?
When the old man politely entertained the two of them, they stayed for dinner, and the two of them were polite to the old man for a while, and then bowed directly to Ah Tie: "Brother Ah Tie! My two brothers know that you are a practitioner, and we want to learn skills from you." ”
"I ......" Ah Tie didn't know what to say, except for his life's strength, he didn't know any martial arts.
Seeing Ah Tie hesitate, the two immediately knelt down!
Da Long said: "Brother Ah Tie, my brothers and I learned martial arts to protect the village, there will be robbers in the village every year, and Uncle Long also said that your family was killed by bandits, you should know better the hatefulness of bandits!"
Xiaolong also said: "Yes! The thieves are hateful! The villagers have worked hard to get food and property in exchange for blood and sweat, and they will always be looted by them, I have watched the things at home being robbed since I was a child, and we dare not speak out, that day I saw Brother Ah Tie kill the thief, I was very happy, and secretly thought: I also learned some of your skills, killed two thieves who came to rob, and eliminated the evil spirit in my heart for many years. ”
Dalong said again: "Brother Ah Tie, we have all seen your ability, if you don't accept us as apprentices, we will not be able to kneel on the ground." ”
Ah Tie looked at the old man Long Sanhuai on the side, hoping that he would help solve it.
The old man laughed, and said, "Two young men, get up, and if you don't dislike my blind girl's food, stay and have two drinks." ”
The two brothers looked at each other, since Long Sanhuai had opened his mouth, there was no need to worry so much.
The two kowtowed and thanked the old man and Ah Tie.
When the food came up, how dare Dalong and Xiaolong dislike it? When they looked at the rare game on weekdays, the two brothers were dumbfounded, this is even rarer than the Chinese New Year!
At the same time, the wind and rain outside gradually became stronger again.
The two brothers, for a while, can't go back.
In this typhoon weather, houses will be overturned, and they can enjoy such delicious food with good wine, which is still a kind of enjoyment.
"Master Ah Tie, I, Dalong, don't expect to learn your magic skills, I just hope to learn your hunting skills. ”
"Yes, this technique, I am afraid that the best archery is the best, if the two brothers know it, bow and arrow in hand, those bandits, I am afraid that before they enter the village, they will be shot by our sword. ”
Ah Tie really didn't know how to explain, in fact, he was throwing wooden arrows hard, hunting with strong and accurate strength, and as for archery, he really didn't know it.
The old man naturally understood what Ah Tie was thinking, so he explained: "Big dragon, little dragon, Ah Tie is good at one-handed sword throwing skills, if you want to learn, you have to work hard." ”
"Is it to throw the sword in your hand and kill the enemy thousands of miles away?" Da Long said thoughtfully: "I have heard of this, it is called the Flying Sword, and it is rumored that there is such a character outside our Tianqi Island, it turns out that Ah Tie."
My brother is so skilled, it seems that I have to study harder. ”
Xiaolong also became excited, and said: "Me too, and whether I can learn it or not, it is our creation to be able to worship Brother Ah Tie as a master." ”
The old man laughed again and said, "Da Long said that he laughed, a sword flew out and killed the enemy thousands of miles away, that is the means of the gods, we Ah Tie, we still can't do it." ”
"Haha, that's that! After all, the stories told by the storytellers in town are all myths, where is the truth?"
Xiaolong didn't give up, and took advantage of the wine to beg: "Master Ah Tie, your sword-throwing skills, I wonder if you can let us take a look?"
Ah Tie hesitated for a moment, and seeing that the old man had no opinion, he pointed to the pillar not far away and said, "You two brothers can see a black dot on the pillar." ”
The lights at night were dim, ordinary people couldn't see clearly, and the two walked to the pillar, among them, they did find a black spot, but the black spot was two feet away from Ah Tie the size of a fingernail, how did Ah Tie see it clearly?
Dalong said: "Master Ah Tie, you have good eyesight! I didn't expect you to see this." ”
Xiaolong was a little drunk, and asked, "Master Ah Tie, is it possible to shoot this black spot with the chopsticks in his hand?"
The old man also looked at Ah Tie curiously, even if he believed that Ah Tie had this ability, but at night when the black light was blind, he threw a black spot that was invisible at all with chopsticks, which was not an ordinary person's skill, and it was difficult to see.
Ah Tie didn't make any exaggerated movements, and under the gaze of the three of them, the chopsticks were thrown out by him casually.
"Bang!" After a sound, the chopsticks were fixed directly on the pillar, and the two brothers hurriedly checked, and there was no doubt that the black spot the size of a fingernail was in the middle.
The two brothers admired Ah Tie's skills even more.
It was the coexistence of strength and precision, and the old man couldn't help but sigh at this ability.
The two brothers, Dalong and Xiaolong, were very anxious, hurriedly kowtowed again, and bowed to Ah Tie, saying that they would start learning the swordsmanship now.
Taking advantage of the rain, the two brothers would not be able to go back for a while anyway, and Ah Tie explained to them how he used his strength and how he shot the object, but the two brothers couldn't keep their mouths together.
Dalong raised doubts and said, "Master, the one you said used to sense the trajectory of the sword in your mind, and we really don't understand this. ”
Ah Tie patiently explained: "When the 'sword' in his hand is thrown, the sword establishes a connection with his mind, and he controls it to shoot the target with his own mind......"
The two brothers were confused when they heard it, they didn't know how to overtake at all, and when the chopsticks were thrown, let alone stabbing the target, they couldn't even hurt people.
The old man also drank wine and comforted him on the side: "Big dragon, little dragon, take your time, advanced things are often difficult to understand, you must understand carefully." ”
The two brothers did not dare to slack off, and they did not return home until the storm had subsided.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the old man and Ah Tie sealed the doors and windows to prevent the cold wind from entering the room.
"Brother Ah Tie, I remember that when I was very young, a warlock who passed by our village showed me my face and said that my eyes would never see the light, and I would leave this island in the future......" Long Yuxin likes to follow Ah Tie and tell him stories next to her. Tell some legends about the island, and her own past.
"Yuxin, believe me, your eyes will be fine! When the time comes, I will definitely go to the center of the island and find you a famous doctor to cure your eyes. ”
The stories she tells are all small things, and Ah Tie will listen very carefully.
