Chapter 7 There are good people in every era
Negative Qi left the main street and got into a somewhat deserted alley, and most of the residents of the alley ran to the main street to watch the excitement at the moment. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Hmph, look, I must be famous in the world in the future, so that everyone will bow to me!"
Looking forward to no one around, Liu Mingyi rolled up his sleeves and squeaked his fists, anyone who was looked down upon like this by others, he would never be happy.
Gollum -
Liu Mingyi patted his belly, he hadn't eaten anything since last night, and he finally began to protest.
"Okay, you have to solve your own physiological problems first, and you can put the matter of fame into consideration later!"
Thinking of this, Liu Mingyi looked around carefully, he was looking for a pawnshop or something, from his limited knowledge of TV dramas, in ancient times, it was not common to exchange things in pawnshops for cash, but unfortunately no matter how he looked for it, he couldn't find it, but in a corner he saw a house with a blacksmith sign.
The sound of clanging iron tools was rough and rhythmic, and even in broad daylight, a scorching fire could be seen reflecting from the inside, and out of curiosity, Liu Mingyi walked over.
Before he could fully enter, a wave of heat rushed to his face, sweat seeped out from Liu Mingyi's forehead and merged into threads dripping onto the ground, he hurriedly stopped and stretched his neck to look inside.
The firelight painted everything in the room a layer of dark red, and a big man was rotating the hammer with his bare arms, sweat flying down his explosive muscles, and every time he picked down the hammer, it would bring up sparks that splashed everywhere, and the sparks and sweat were intertwined to make Liu Mingyi look fascinated.
"Are you going to forge or repair?"
Feeling the gaze outside the door, the big man stopped what he was doing, he turned around and said in a thick voice, his explosive beard trembling with every time he spoke. Although he was doing the heaviest work, there was no trace of impatience on his face, and a large mouth grinned happily after speaking, revealing two rows of white teeth inside.
"Oh, no, no, I'm just coming to see!"
Liu Mingyi's voice was like a mosquito, and his momentum was suppressed in front of this blacksmith.
"What? Are you also interested in striking iron? ”
The blacksmith not only did not get angry because Liu Mingyi just came to see him, but enthusiastically stepped forward and took him into the door.
"I can't say I'm not interested, it's just that I've never seen anyone else strike iron before."
Liu Mingyi was telling the truth, he had indeed never seen it.
"Come on, brother, why don't you take a look and feel it."
The blacksmith immediately proposed, Liu Mingyi hurriedly waved his hand to signal that he couldn't do it, but he couldn't stand the other party's insistent invitation, and finally turned his heart sideways, and also followed the other party's example to take off his shirt and throw it on the ground, and raised the hammer with both hands.
"Hahaha~ It's a man!" The blacksmith laughed, and he took a small hammer from the side and continued, "Come on, come on, it's very simple, I knock on it, you will follow the hammer head!" ”
"Good!"
Liu Mingyi didn't say much, and after picking up the hammer, he was also playful for a while.
"Up!"
With the blacksmith roaring, the small hammer slammed on the red-hot iron, Liu Mingyi hurriedly picked up the hammer and smashed it down, but unfortunately the head was wrong, and this time it did not hit the blacksmith's knock.
"Come again!"
Once he was at work, the blacksmith's face became very serious, his eyes fixed on the red-hot iron, and his left foot firmly on the bellows.
Bang —
The small hammer hit the iron again, Liu Mingyi learned the previous lesson this time, carefully looked at the position and smashed it down again, this time the big hammer hit the position accurately, and the iron hammer fell and the iron clattered.
"It's too light, come again!"
The blacksmith was fully in shape, his thick brows furrowed, and the small hammer struck the iron again.
Liu Mingyi hates to be looked down upon the most, he clenched his teeth, his arms adjusted slightly and then exerted force, the big hammer whined in mid-air, and then smashed on the red-hot iron with a bang, sparks scattered in all directions, and the force of the shock from the hammer made his arms numb.
"Okay, come again!"
The blacksmith nodded in satisfaction, and his hammer struck the iron again, but after a long time the sledgehammer fell again.
"Huh?"
The blacksmith turned his head to look at Liu Mingyi in astonishment, and the latter was squatting on the ground breathlessly with a sledgehammer.
"Brother, your health is too bad!"
The blacksmith put down the hammer, walked to Liu Mingyi's side and helped him up, and then took a clay bowl from his side and brought it to Liu Mingyi.
"Come on, come on, drink water and rest."
Liu Mingyi unceremoniously took the clay bowl and drank it in one gulp, he was extremely thirsty, and he had to exert so much strength in such a hot environment to make him fall into fatigue faster than usual.
"Hahaha, little brother, I think you don't usually do much physical work, right? Your body looks sturdy, but it's just not useful! ”
After the blacksmith put down the tool, he immediately returned to that heroic smile, he was not making fun of Liu Mingyi, but he had a straightforward personality and always had something to say.
"Well, it's true that I usually lack exercise, but the main reason is that I haven't eaten anything since last night, and I don't have any strength in my body."
Liu Mingyi was indeed convinced, even if his character did not admit defeat, he had to admit that his body was indeed too weak, but he immediately made an excuse for himself with a good face.
"Hahaha~~ Say it earlier, come on, come on, I still have a little food here, if my brother doesn't dislike it, I'll just take it!"
As soon as the blacksmith turned around, he took out a few things that looked like steamed buns out of nowhere.
"How can this be, how can I take your stuff for nothing!"
Liu Mingyi's eyes turned green when he saw what he was eating, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and couldn't help but didn't reach out to take it, it was about his face.
"Hahaha~~ How can you eat for nothing, after all, you helped me a lot just now!"
The blacksmith's eyes seemed to be able to see through other people's hearts, and he simply stuffed the food into Liu Mingyi's arms.
"Thanks, then you're welcome!"
At this moment, Liu Mingyi's tears almost flowed out, he picked up a "steamed bun" and took a bite, the entrance was dry and tasteless, but he was already extremely hungry, where could he take care of so much, almost even omitted the time to chew, he began to gobble up the "steamed bun" into his mouth.
"Eat slowly, and no one will rob you!"
Liu Mingyi's appearance frightened the blacksmith, he hurriedly persuaded a few words, and handed over the mud bowl full of water......
"Little brother, where are you from?"
The blacksmith asked, picking up the hammer as he continued his work.
"Oh, I'm from the mountains!"
Liu Mingyi replied while eating.
"Are you here to join some relatives?"
The blacksmith continued to strike, his left foot rhythmically tapping on the bellows, and even the distraction did not affect his men's movements.
"No, I don't have any relatives here."
Liu Mingyi told the truth, he felt that this blacksmith was not bad, but he was a friend worth making.
"And where are you staying at night?"
The blacksmith thought for a moment and continued to ask.
"This ........."
The blacksmith's question made Liu Mingyi startled, he really hadn't considered this question, this was not his time, there would be no hotels or youth hostels, so where did he sleep at night? Is it really going to sleep on the streets?
The blacksmith waited for a long time and didn't see Liu Mingyi answer, he turned his head to see that the other party was grabbing his hair with a distressed look.
"Hahaha, is there no place to live?" The blacksmith put down the hammer and turned around and walked in front of Liu Mingyi and stretched out his hand, "Why don't you come to my house to live!" ”
"Your home? How can that work. Liu Mingyi shook his head, the blacksmith had already helped him a lot, and it would be too unkind to trouble the other party even if he even lived there, "No, I always have a way to solve it myself!" ”
"What can you do? I don't think you have any money, and you have no friends or relatives, so what else can you do in this city except to sleep on the streets! Come to my house. ”
The blacksmith exposed Liu Mingyi's predicament in a few words, and his voice was very sincere.
"Really, I'll be embarrassed to trouble you like this!"
Liu Mingyi is a person with a good face, and he is never willing to live in someone else's house in vain.
"Well, you're not living in vain. You live in my house, but you have to help me on weekdays, but I won't pay you for it. Hahaha~~"
The blacksmith once again saw through Liu Mingyi's psychology, which made Liu Mingyi a little suspicious of whether the other party was really as rough as he seemed on the surface.
"Well, I'll agree to that for the time being. When one day I am developed, I will definitely not forget you. Liu Mingyi thought about it and finally agreed, but it was also because he was really desperate at the moment, "Blacksmith, I found that you are really a good person, can you tell me what your name is?" ”
"Hahaha~ Others call me Wang Da Hammer, who will not encounter anything in this life, the so-called go out by friends! I'm not a good person or anything, so you can work with me after you finish eating! ”
So the matter was settled, and Liu Mingyi temporarily stayed at the home of the blacksmith Wang Da Hammer.
