Volume 1 Wan Fu Li Chapter 38 Shi En
Mr. Shen The mountain where they are located is called Xiaofeng Mountain, which is a relatively inconspicuous one among the mountains by the river, and there is a town not far from the mountain.
At lunchtime, the tea master sat there with one hand supporting his chin and the other hand holding chopsticks and knocking on the stone table boringly, Mr. Shen came out of the kitchen with a disgraced face, holding a pot of black things: "Taste it." ”
The tea master glanced at it and vomited.
Mr. Shen was a little disappointed: "It seems that some things are really talented." ”
The tea master pointed to the dish and asked, "Didn't you say that you would make beef for me once?" Sir, did you go to great lengths to buy a piece of cow dung on the black market and come back? ”
Mr. Shen: "Ahem...... Always remember to respect me. ”
The tea master forcibly endured the pungent smell and brushed the plate: "But it's also good, I will be full when I smell it." ”
Mr. Shen looked at the sky: "I want to discuss something with you, we are too far away from the camp of the water division, and we waste a lot of time delivering food every day, I think why don't we go to rent a house near the water division?" ”
"Yes, yes."
The tea master's eyes lit up: "Let's go today." ”
Mr. Shen shook his head with a smile: "There's nothing to clean up, just take your clothes and go." ”
The tea master suddenly felt guilty: "That gentleman really has nothing to bring." ”
Mr. Shen: "Alas......"
The two of them finally cleaned up, and one of them left the Taoist temple with a package, Mr. Shen's package was indeed quite deflated, after all, there were few clothes......
Before Mr. Shen had seen a small courtyard near the camp of the water division, not big but clean, the original owner of the house was a local official, good luck was enviable, and he was transferred to Chang'an City by a paper order from the Ministry of Households, Zhuang Yong first told Mr. Shen after getting the news, so Mr. Shen borrowed some silver from him to buy the small courtyard.
Zhuang Yong expressed regret.
In the afternoon of the same day, Mr. Shen and the tea master arrived at the place, Mr. Shen asked her to clean up the room and go out alone, the tea master looked at the small courtyard and wanted to sing in a good mood, but opened his mouth several times and found that there was nothing except the children's song called Xiaoyanzi that he had learned when he was a child.
The little swallow wears a flower dress and comes here every spring, and I ask the swallow why she comes, and the swallow says, take care of yourself......
It was late at night that Mr. Shen came back, and brought back a person, an old man who walked a little strangely, his temples were white and his face was full of vicissitudes, and he recognized it after looking carefully at the tea master, this old man was actually Uncle Chen, who was once as strong as a cow in Fish Scale Town, Chen Ran's father.
It's only been a few years, and it's already like this.
Mr. Shen settled Uncle Chen, and took the tea master out to order vegetables to be delivered early tomorrow morning with the vegetable farmer, Mr. Shen sighed as he walked: "Leng Zi told me about this when he came back, and then I have been walking around here to touch the house, there is no place to live and it is inconvenient to pick up Uncle Chen, let him follow us to collect vegetables in the future, and even if we leave in the future, he has become familiar with the water master, and this business will not fall into the hands of others with Zhuang Yong's help to take care of it." ”
"Yes, the place where we lived before was too far, and Uncle Chen's current body can't go that far."
"It's not cold at all, it's warm."
The corners of the tea master's mouth hooked, and he said in his heart that of course, and he didn't look at who trained it.
What they didn't know was that a few black-clothed people poured a lot of oil on the outside of the Taoist temple that night, and then lit the inn with a fire, and before that, they sprayed some incense into the house, and the person who took the lead had a curved bow tied behind his back.
When Shen Leng saw Chen Ran in the barracks, he knew that the Chen family's life might not be able to go on, and when he left Fish Scale Town, Uncle Chen took his hand and said that he could come back at any time, there was no mother-in-law at the uncle's house, but the kang was hot.
Mr. Shen has been looking for a house, and if it weren't for Zhuang Yong's help, this well-located courtyard wouldn't have fallen into their hands.
"By the way, what is that thing that Uncle Chen has been refusing to leave when he came, wrapped in a thick cloth, it looks heavy, and he refuses to let you hold it with his legs and feet."
"I don't know, he said that he accidentally found a treasure when he went down to the river to catch fish."
"It's for my son."
"It's human nature."
The two of them chatted while walking, went to the place and ordered the vegetables needed for tomorrow with the vegetable farmer, and bought some meals on the way home, after all, this is not in the mountains, and it is much more convenient to buy things.
When he entered the door, he saw Uncle Chen wiping his tears, and when he saw two people coming in, he hurriedly laughed, as if he was afraid of being laughed at, he sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, and there was something wrapped in thick cloth on the stone table in front of him.
"Come, uncle, let's eat."
The tea master smiled and went over, wanting to clean up the table, and reached out to carry the package, which was unexpectedly heavy.
"Open it, this is a gift I prepared for Leng Zi, last time Ran Er said to me when she came home from vacation, Leng Zi is also in the camp of the water master, and he can take care of him, I thought, such a great kindness can't be repaid, so I went down the river...... Not many people know that there is a shipwreck in that position in the Nanping River, I found it by chance, and when I was young, the water was good three times, and there was really nothing of value in it, only this. ”
He gestured to the package.
The tea master opened the package, layer after layer, and then he was stunned, there was actually a stone inside the package...... It's dark, and I don't know why Uncle Chen thinks this thing is expensive.
"Black Iron?"
Mr. Shen's eyes suddenly lit up after seeing that thing, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch it: "If it's really black iron, such a big piece can really be considered a treasure." ”
"I don't know what this thing is, once when I went down, I couldn't help but think about not taking anything back to lose panic, this thing is in a wooden box, the wooden box is rotten, I scraped it with a knife to see if it is a big gold nugget or something, but the blade was scratched twice."
Uncle Chen smiled a little embarrassedly: "I am a coolie with little knowledge, and I don't want to tell others when I find out about the shipwreck, and I think that if there is something good, I will take it and sell it for money, so that my son can live a good life, so after so many years, this iron lump is still there." ”
Tea Master felt a little pain in his heart and wanted to cry.
"Is this thing really valuable?"
"It's worth a lot of money."
Mr. Shen replied: "It's too precious, I'll thank Uncle Leng Zi, you can't accept it, you can keep this thing for Chen Ran, I'll help you contact and sell it, it's enough for you two to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your lives." ”
Uncle Chen suddenly knelt down: "Do you want me to kneel and die here?" Don't you say that I don't know that this thing is so expensive, and now that I know it, I don't regret it, what is given to Leng Zi is given to Leng Zi, Leng Zi is doing well, and he can still treat my son badly? ”
This is an old father's mind, a little cunning, a sincere cunning.
Yes, he knows what kind of person Shen Leng is, and he also knows what kind of person his son is, if Shen Leng is out of the future, can he still treat his son badly?
"Besides, I'm sure I'm going to live with you."
Mr. Shen hurriedly helped him up: "Okay, I'll take it for Leng Zi first, I have to leave for a few days early tomorrow morning, Cha'er, you and Uncle go to deliver food, if Zhuang Yong asks me where I went, you will say I don't know." ”
Tea Master: "I didn't know ...... originally"
"Forget it, I'll leave overnight."
Mr. Shen rewrapped the piece of black iron and carried it on his back: "You'll know when you come back." ”
Mr. Shen hurriedly went out, leaving an old man and a young man a little confused.
Mr. Shen didn't have much rest for nearly a day and two nights, so he hired a fishing boat to travel downstream at night for a night, and after dawn, he went ashore and hired a carriage to walk all day, promising to give the coachman more money, and the coachman stayed up and walked for most of the night before arriving at the place.
Mr. Shen, who was blind in the black light, carried a heavy package into the mountain, knocked on the door of a Taoist temple, Xiao Daotong rubbed his eyes and asked who are you looking for, Mr. Shen asked who brought a letter to this Taoist temple twenty years ago, and I bother you to ask if the person is still there, if so, tell him that there is an old man named Shen Xiaosong who wants to see.
A few minutes later, the white-bearded viewer ran out with his shoes pulled, and when he saw Shen Xiaosong, he bowed his head and bowed: "Benefactor!" ”
Mr. Shen helped the old Taoist up: "Don't call it that, we are friends, I came here this time with a request." ”
The old Taoist invited Mr. Shen in, and the two of them held the lamp and talked at night, and the next morning, the old Taoist ordered the Taoist temple to be closed, and then went into the backyard for three whole days.
Many years ago, there was a strange thing in the Daning Martial Arts Workshop, and there were problems with the weapons built in two batches in a row, and the Ministry of War directly sent someone to investigate, and found the best forging master in the Martial Arts Workshop, because his child was seriously ill and had to steal some of the most valuable materials to sell, which was to kill his head.
At that time, Mr. Shen, who happened to be a Taoist, accompanied a big man to visit the martial arts workshop, and after learning about this incident, he asked the big man for extrajudicial mercy.
At that time, His Royal Highness Liuwang sold Mr. Shen a favor, after all, there were not many people who could accompany him to play chess in Yunxiao City, so he let the forging master go that night, and then declared to the public that he was afraid of crime and threw himself into the well.
Now that twenty years have passed, if it weren't for Uncle Chen who brought Black Iron, Mr. Shen would have forgotten that he had saved such a person.
Later, the blacksmith went incognito, with the letters and financial support given to him by Mr. Shen, and took refuge in this Taoist temple, and twenty years later, he actually became the master of this Taoist temple.
For three days and three nights, when the viewer came out of the backyard, the people were almost out of shape, and the tinkling of the three days and three nights finally stopped, fortunately this is in the mountains, otherwise it will definitely be suspected.
Mr. Shen didn't want to rest, said goodbye to the viewer with red eyes, and started his return journey with a knife on his back.
After he left, the Taoist temple fell to the ground, and then he didn't know why he cried loudly, and the little Taoist boy persuaded him for a long time to no avail, and the master fell asleep crying and crying, and woke up after a day and a night, and he still looked haggard and his eyes were shining.
"That knife may be the pride of my life."
Xiao Daotong thought in his heart that the Lord was powerful and omnipotent, and it must have been many years ago that there would be an old man to ask for it, so he bought the forging tools and furnace in the backyard many years ago.
Mr. Shen spent a day and a night rushing home, and when he fell asleep halfway, his hands were tightly holding the package, and when he woke up, he would immediately open the package and take a look, and there was a word as sharp as a knife on the blade near the hilt.
Cold.
The shape of the knife is exactly the same as that of the Daning standard horizontal knife, the size is exactly the same, and the handle is also wrapped with red and black lines, but the weight is nearly ten times heavier than the Daning horizontal knife.
This knife weighs forty-five pounds and is forged to the ninth power.
Mr. Shen was extremely tired, but he kept smiling at the corner of his mouth.
"Leng Zi, Mr. will change you to a black line knife."
......
