Outside the door was indeed Lan Ge'er.

Lan Ge'er said in surprise: "I deliberately used a small stone to knock on the door, how do you still know that it is me?" ”

I laughed, "Secret." ”

Seeing that Lan Ge'er was holding a bunch of things in his hands, I asked, "What are you holding?" ”

Lan Ge'er raised his head and said, "If you don't say how you know I'm here, I won't give you these treasures." ”

As soon as I heard that it was a treasure, I immediately thought of the treasure armor and dragon claw knife that Uncle Qiu said, and I was busy and wanted to take a look.

But Lan Geer didn't let go. I couldn't help it: "Everyone's footsteps are different, the small stone is one high and one low, and the little swallow is bouncing." ”

Lan Ge'er didn't believe it: "You don't bluff me, I don't have a sound when I walk, do you say it or not." ”

I blushed, and I really let Lan Ge'er guess correctly. In fact, I can smell the unique fragrance of Langeer, and with the improvement of my hearing and vision, my sense of smell has also become amazingly keen, which not only helps me to greatly improve my cooking skills, but also in smelling and recognizing people.

Within a few dozen meters, I can clearly distinguish the different fragrances of Lan Ge'er, Xiao Shen Yan, Liu Ping, etc., and of course, the smell of small stones and Ling Xiao.

However, I was embarrassed to say that I recognized Lan Ge by smelling her aroma, and that was to be beaten.

I said seriously: "Your silent movement also proves that this is your characteristic." ”

Lan Ge'er was skeptical, but didn't ask anything more. Instead, he took the pile in and said, "For tomorrow's safety, you try this." As he spoke, he took out an object from it, and looking at Lan Ge'er's laborious appearance, I felt that it must be a very heavy thing.

"Ah, why are there two iron plates?" When I took it, I was surprised to realize that it was two large iron plates connected by cloth rope and fishing line.

Lan Ge'er sighed: "There is nothing else good, I can only make do with this, although it is ugly and bulky, but something really happened, can I save my life." ”

"Do the Iron Axe Gang really dare to kill?" I asked idiotically, Lan Ge'er gave me a blank look, no need to answer, I already have the answer: yes, very good!

I looked at the two black and rough iron plates, and I couldn't help but be speechless. If I hadn't seen the treasure of the Qiu blacksmith's family, I might not have thought anything, but after seeing the treasure armor, how awkward is how I look at this piece of iron now.

I tried it on my body, and it was like resisting two large door panels, it was hard and heavy, not to mention how uncomfortable it was, and my pants kept falling.

I immediately said I didn't want to wear this, but Lan Ge'er firmly disagreed, and I had to wear it.

I couldn't help it, knowing that Lan Ge'er was also for my good, so I had to compromise.

I thought about it for a while and finally persuaded: "If there are really people from the Iron Axe Gang tomorrow, we, if it doesn't work, let them forget it, of course, I will tell them the conditions." Will strive for the best conditions. ”

Once again, Lan Ge'er rejected my idea, but said that it had been arranged.

I sighed, knowing that there was no hope, and said no more. In fact, Lan Ge'er thought well, the usual style of the Iron Axe Gang is not to give me the opportunity to tell the conditions, but will only use thunderous means to kill and seize money.

The empathy of the law of the jungle in this troubled world, deep down I also know it.

Lan Ge'er looked at me, maybe because he was too resolute in denying it just now, and he was afraid that I couldn't think about it too much, after all, if I didn't agree, I would be the one who faced the biggest danger.

Lan Ge'er said softly: "Don't worry, we will definitely ensure your safety, if you ......" Lan Ge'er hesitated for a moment and said: "If tomorrow, Uncle Qin, and Aunt Qin can't protect you, just do as you say." "Of course, this is perfunctory, psychological comfort.

I know that Lan Ge'er does not completely disagree with the terms of the talks, but that he does not have the opportunity to talk.

Then Lan Ge'er said: "If tomorrow's things go well, I will teach you kung fu in the future, born in troubled times, a big man, no kung fu in his body, no." ”

When I heard that Lan Ge'er was also willing to teach me kung fu, I couldn't help but be happy, although I didn't know what Lan Ge'er's kung fu was, but I heard Ling Xiao and Xie Jianfeng say that Lan Ge'er's kung fu was very good. I guess it's not as good as Blacksmith Qiu, but it should be more than enough to teach me.

I was very happy to say yes.

Brother Lan knew that I had to get up early tomorrow to prepare a lot of things, so he told me to go to bed early, and when he left, he told me uneasily: "If there is a situation tomorrow that we can't cope with, you don't care about anything, it's important to run away first to save your life." ”

I nodded yes, and Lan Ge'er left with a heavy heart.

I know that Lan Ge'er cares about me very much, and I also know that he is very young, and it is not easy to bring a large group of children, if he is not born in troubled times, at the age of Lan Ge'er, he is only the age of just entering the third year of junior high school. Now, it's so much to bear.

Alas, life is not easy.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, I got up early in the morning and arranged everything properly, and Uncle Qin and his wife also came early, the two of them were dressed differently this time than before, no longer like the kind of dress that went out to sell, but from top to bottom, a tightly fitting dress, showing great spirit, but the eyes of the two were full of solemnity. Obviously, I felt that this trip was not easy.

Although the two of them were also pushing the cart as before, there was nothing else on the cart except two long objects wrapped in cloth. Don't think about it, it should be a weapon for self-defense.

After I said hello to them, with the help of Brother Lan, I wanted to put on those two big iron plates, which was so uncomfortable that one person couldn't wear them at all.

As soon as it was put around his neck, someone knocked on the courtyard door.

Ling Xiao opened the door first. A tall, sturdy, and handsome young man came in. On the slightly red face, a pair of thick eyebrows and deep eyes, a high nose bridge, arched lips, when he raised his head, his eyes flashed, and the whole person against the background had a heroic spirit.

I opened my eyes and was happy, it was none other than someone else.

It was Uncle Qiu's eldest son, Qiu Dalang.

I hurriedly smiled and said, "Brother Qiu, why did you come early in the morning?" ”

Qiu Dalang married his wife a while ago and I cooked a lot of fancy stir-fried dishes at that time, which won the praise of all the visitors, and I didn't take a penny of the commission.

Qiu Dalang strode into the courtyard, did not answer my words first, but hugged Uncle Qin and his wife, and Uncle Qin and his wife also returned the salute with their fists. was not sluggish because Qiu Dalang was young, but his eyes revealed joy, diluting the sorrow just now.

After the ceremony with Uncle Qin and his wife, Qiu Dalang said to me with a smile: "Brother Yong, my Ah Da specially summoned me home yesterday, saying that he misunderstood Brother Yong, no, early this morning, he specially asked me to bring your things over." My grandfather also specially ordered me not to do anything else in the past few days, so I will eat with you. As he spoke, he took a large package from his back and handed it to me.

Qiu Dalang said politely, but I knew it, and I couldn't help but be grateful to Uncle Qiu for his deep affection, not only sent yesterday's armor, but also specially asked Qiu Dalang to protect my safety.

I took Qiu Dalang's package, and as soon as I started it, I felt that it was indeed the treasure armor and the dragon claw knife.

I was afraid that Da Lang didn't know that we were going to face the Iron Axe Gang, which was very likely to be a powerful force today, so I explained: "Brother Da Lang, I have something I must explain, it is possible to confront the people of the Iron Axe Gang today." ”

Qiu Dalang smiled and said, "If it weren't for Ah Da's attention to me, in fact, two years earlier, I would have thought that I would be able to meet the iron axe of the gang director of the Iron Axe Gang." The meaning of this is that I really don't take the Iron Axe Gang too seriously.

It's really a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers! Young and vigorous.

At this time, Uncle Qin took two steps forward and said, "It's okay now, with Qiu Dalang, the number one master in our poor alley, coming forward, we can be safe." ”

Qiu Dalang hurriedly said: "Uncle Qin, don't make jokes about your little nephew, I don't dare to be the number one master in the alley, there are Uncle Qin and his wife, I'm just helping to make a start, I often say that you two are masters." ”

When Uncle Qin and his wife heard Qiu Dalang say this, they were extremely happy, although they said that they didn't dare to do it, but they were already smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Lan Ge'er also hugged his fists and thanked Qiu Dalang, Qiu Dalang hurriedly returned the courtesy and said that he was not polite, they were all helping each other.

Everyone saw that the time was not early, and they didn't dare to delay, Qiu Dalang wanted to help me take off the iron plate, thinking that I would change into the treasure armor, but I thought of something, handed the treasure armor in the package to Lan Ge'er, and asked him to wear it.

Lan Ge'er saw that this unsightly armor was extraordinary, but his face turned red, but he refused to accept it, and said: "This is your clothes, I must be big when I wear it, it must be ugly to death, so I won't wear it." ”

I still have to explain, but Lan Ge'er ignored my explanation, and directly pushed me into the room and asked me to change in, dead or alive.

There was no way, I entered my room with Qiu Dalang, took off the iron plate, and put on the treasure armor.

Outside the door, Aunt Qin said to Brother Lan: "Brother Lan, I think Brother Yong is really good to you, such good things are given to you first, and I am very close to you." ”

Lan Ge'er said shyly: "Auntie, just kidding again, how can you be as you think, we are all good brothers." ”

Aunt Qin smiled meaningfully and said, "Yes, yes, they are all good brothers and sisters." ”

I was about to hear how Brother Lan answered, but I heard Qiu Dalang next to him ask, "Brother Yong?" You really haven't practiced kung fu? ”

I said frankly: "If it is said that I have practiced some of the exercises to strengthen the body, but they are all things that are not useful, and I really haven't practiced the kung fu you are talking about." ”

Qiu Dalang asked again: "Have you practiced sword techniques before?" ”

"No, except for the kitchen knife, I haven't touched any other knife." This time I replied without any ambiguity.

"Then yesterday I Da's knife technique, you really read it twice?" Qiu Dalang asked in surprise.

"It should be, I feel that Uncle Qiu should have deliberately slowed down yesterday, so that I can see clearly, I think it's quite interesting, and I don't think it's particularly difficult." I said casually.

"Ah, ha, ha, isn't it particularly difficult?" Qiu Dalang's voice was embarrassed.

I looked at him suspiciously, and Qiu Dalang said embarrassedly: "Brother Yong, do you know, how long did it take me to learn my father's knife technique?" ”

I shook my head.

Qiu Dalang stretched out three fingers, and I hurriedly said, "Three days? ”

Qiu Dalang shook his head, and I couldn't believe it: "It won't be three months, right?" ”

Qiu Dalang shook his head again, and I exhaled and said: "I said that it won't take three months, and you can understand it three times, right, but it's just one more time than me, and it's nothing." ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw Qiu Dalang covering his face and not speaking for a long time. I wondered why he was, but Qiu Dalang said with a flushed face: "I've watched it for three years!" Three years! ”

I was suddenly shocked, and I couldn't figure out how it took me three years to understand that set of knife techniques.

However, Qiu Dalang's words surprised me even more.

"It took me three years to see it, but I also boasted, in fact, it took me three whole years, and I just watched it, and I learned it for another five years, and I didn't fully learn it, I only understood the three tricks of the knife technique, and since then, there has been no progress." Qiu Dalang said in a shocking voice.

"Ah, it's that hard? In that case, I must have practiced wrong yesterday, otherwise it wouldn't have made such a big difference. "I thought that I should have misunderstood, otherwise it would be impossible for Qiu Dalang to practice for eight years without practice, and I watched it twice and saw it through. I must have learned to split a fork.

Qiu Dalang shook his head and said: "No, you didn't practice wrong, yesterday my Ah Da has already told me, not only do you see it all thoroughly, but you have also learned almost, your set of knife practice has come out, and it has come out of the charm, compared with my Ah Da, the difference is almost nothing worse except for the common sense of fire and holding a knife." Alas, the difference between people and people is really too great. It's no wonder that Ah Da wants to pass on this set of knife techniques to you. ”

"Ah, really?" I can't believe it.

"Yes, I can't believe it, but Ah Da won't lie to me, by the way, Ah Da said, he blamed you by mistake, mistakenly thought that you had kung fu, but after you left, he thought about it repeatedly, and deliberately looked for Second Uncle Sun, only to understand that you are really smart and a wizard of martial arts. So Ah Da wants you to go to him again after you are busy today, and he still has something to tell you. Speaking of this, Qiu Dalang said with emotion: "It's amazing, Brother Yong, you are really not easy at a young age." In the future, you have to teach my brother and me more. ”
