After Li Xiuming accepted the box, she sat for a while, then said goodbye and went to clean up the separate room assigned to her. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 There were only two masters and apprentices left in the room, and Dr. Liu looked at the master, was silent for a while, and then laughed out loud. Old Medical Officer Sun looked at his eldest apprentice and said with a smile: "In recent years, I have seen that you are becoming more and more adult, and I still want to worry about your family affairs, but I didn't expect that your kid is not small, and he actually solved it by himself." In the future, you have to treat her well, don't be like when she was a teacher, and in the end there is no result, and now she is old and can only be alone. "In the eyes of Old Medical Officer Sun, of course his apprentice is excellent, and he didn't consider that Li Xiuming was the eldest daughter of the Li family, the wealthy lord of the Shang Jin family, and whether his father Li Si Nai would agree to this family business.

Doctor Xiao Liu was not polite, and said with a grin: "Master, don't worry, my apprentice will definitely bear a good fruit." Old Medical Officer Sun drove him away with a smile: "Okay, you don't have to scratch your ears and cheeks with me, hurry up and get busy." Before going out, Dr. Xiao Liu turned his head and asked, "Master, did you just give her the six-hole jasper flute left by the master?" Old Medical Officer Sun nodded, then couldn't help but reach out and touch his eyes, and quickly twisted his head. Medical Officer Xiao Liu knew what the master meant, which was to let himself cherish the person in front of him, and not to get no result in the end for the sake of any man's great cause.

As soon as Li De returned to the wounded barracks, he gathered the children, first asked them to take out all their homework, and carefully inspected them one by one. The children are all from poor families, they are used to it, and they can have the opportunity to read and write, which is precious, and they are very serious about their homework, and none of them are lazy and slippery. After Li Deyi finished inspecting, he nodded with satisfaction, then took out a big burden from behind him, and said to the children: "This is what I bought for you on this trip to Luodu City, everyone has it." When he opened the baggage, there were brand new charcoal pens and white paper, and Li Deyi gave each child two pens and three blank sheets of paper. These children have grown so big, it is the first time they have seen the white paper, and they are all like amazing treasures, and they carefully put away the white paper. Some picked up the paper and found that their hands were dirty, and a finger print was printed, and tears of distress came out on the spot. As soon as Li Deyi saw it, he called the child over to comfort him for a long time, and promised that there would be blank paper to buy for them in the future, which made the child happy again.

For the rest of the morning, Li Deyi began to tell the children about the prosperity of Naluo Capital, the three-story restaurant he had seen, the guest rooms with precious blankets on the ground, and the doors carved from agarwood. Listening to the children's eyes, I really wish I could go there myself. Li Deyi looked at the envy on these children's faces, pretended to groan for a while, and said: "You study hard and be literate, cultivate your original qi well, and after three years, I will take the most capable of you to Luodu City!" When the children heard this, they were directly happy, and their spirits became more full. As soon as Li De saw that it was noon, he took the children to the Huotou camp to have dinner.

Walking halfway and running into Li Wuyi, Li Wuyi looked at Li Deyi and said in surprise: "Child's head!" Li Deyi didn't care when he laughed at him, and said with a smile: "As long as I have kung fu, I will definitely eat with the children." "Still with a group of children huhula rushed to the Huotou camp together. Entering the door, Li Wudi was directly shocked by the big fat man like a hill inside, as soon as Li De went out for a month, Wang Zhuangbiao saw that he had gained weight again, and he made up for all the consumption of the fierce battle last year. When Wang Zhuangbiao saw that the living person was coming, he asked Li Deyi with his eyes, and Li Deyi hurriedly introduced: "This is my senior brother's future brother-in-law." ”

When Wang Zhuangbiao heard this, he rubbed his big hands on the white apron on his body, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a relative of the little medical officer, haha." As he spoke, he reached out and patted Li Wudi's shoulder. After two pats, Li Wudi didn't move, and greeted him with a smile. Wang Zhuangbiao squeezed his fat little eyes towards Li De, and whispered: "This kid is much stronger than you back then, the Sprinkle family slapped him twice, and he was able to hold on." Li Deyi smiled and introduced to Li Wudi: "This is Wang Zhuangbiao, nicknamed Wang Da Fatty, we are the most able to eat and fight in Weibeiying." Li Wudi heard the saying that he was the best able to fight, and immediately respected Wang Da Fatman, and on the way back, Li Deyi told him that the achievements of the Weibei Battalion in the past few years, especially the few times he fought against the Liao people, were all emphatically said.

Li Wudi has always admired capable people the most, and after listening to Li De's introduction, he immediately gave Wang Zhuangbiao a salute in a proper manner, and said as a junior: "I've seen this hero." When Li De heard this, as if it was the first time he saw Li Wudi, he turned his head to look at him in surprise. I have known Li Wudi for so long, and it is the first time that Li Deyi has heard Li Wudi say so many words in one sentence. On the way back, Li Deyi kept telling Li Wudi all kinds of interesting stories and battles in the Weibei camp, Li Wudi listened silently most of the time, and occasionally said "um", even if it was good, I didn't expect such a long sentence to come out at this time. Wang Zhuangbiao was rarely flattered by others, and he was suddenly overjoyed, grinning and laughing: "The Sprinkle family likes children like you, hahaha......" Wang Zhuangbiao was happy for a while, turned his head and actually lifted out a whole roast pig, put it on the long table, and said with a smile: "This is the Sprinkle family has recently improved the whole pig to hang and roast, and there is enough salt and spices on it." Come on, it's rare to have a new little hero today, taste, taste. Li Wudi said modestly: "I don't count." "It's not polite to eat, I picked up a knife and slice a large piece of meat, and ate a mouthful. Wang Zhuangbiao picked up his chef's knife and directly cut off a pork hind leg for himself, and then slice and divide the remaining tenderloin and pork face meat respectively, and kept them for the three chief and old doctor Sun. Li Deyi picked up a stack of large pancakes, cut a large piece of pork, ignored the two who were busy smirking at each other while eating, and walked out with both hands, he had to eat with the children.

Although the days of Weibei Camp are now good, and you can see the oil at every meal, but not every day there is meat to eat, if there is no war, it is usually eaten five or six times a month, and other times it is just to add more lard to the soup. Today is because Li Deyi and Medical Officer Xiao Liu have been out for more than a month, so they have killed pigs and sheep to be rewarded.

When Li Deyi came back from this trip, he remembered the luxurious life of those high-ranking officials and nobles he had seen in Luodu City, and he was thinking about it all the way. Thinking of the extravagance of the wealthy businessman Zhao Daguan, he was greatly shocked. He felt that he should do something, and the few of these children who had already enlightened and started to cultivate their original qi would have great success in the future. On this trip to Luodu City, Li Deyi thought that he had broadened his horizons, knew what a promising person was like, and also knew that as long as a person who could cultivate his original qi was willing to work hard, he would at least be a strong man in the future, and live a good life without worrying about food and clothing. Li Deyi was a little worried that these children would become like that wealthy businessman in the future, and they would live a luxurious life in the future, and Li Deyi, who was born poor, was a little disgusted with this kind of life, and he felt that if he lived like that, he would become pigs and sheep like pigs and sheep, and sooner or later he would be slaughtered by the wolf-like Tuliao people. After eating the food in the city of Los Angeles for several days, he finally felt a little tired, and those delicious dishes no longer brought him the ultimate enjoyment as they did at the beginning, but made him unable to whet his appetite when he saw them. He now also understands a little why those dignitaries and nobles who pay attention to the enjoyment of food will change their methods to make a fuss about eating, no way, there are too many delicious foods, if it is not a new dish, there is no appetite to eat at all.

Thinking of this, Li Deyi gathered the children to a bittersweet meeting before he started to eat lunch, recalling the days when he had to go hungry every day, and then watched the children carefully eat their share of roast pork in the pancake roll, and even licked the residues on the corners of their mouths. After eating, Li Deyi asked the children to rest, and he wandered to find the master.

When I entered the door, Master happened to be sitting at the table, having a drink. As soon as the old medical officer Sun looked up, he saw his little apprentice coming over with a worried face, took out a small wine cup casually, and beckoned: "Come here, accompany me to drink two cups as a teacher." Li Deyi had something in mind, sat at the table, picked up the wine jug and poured a cup for the master first, and then poured another cup for himself, and did not drink, just sat there. Seeing that he didn't speak, he didn't urge him, and he twisted peanuts and ate them slowly. In the middle of the sound, Li De picked up the wine cup in front of him and took a sip of it, looked directly at the master, and said: "Master, I saw a lot of things in Luodu this time......" Li De babbled to the master about what he had seen, and the old doctor Sun listened quietly.

At the end of the day, the spring sun is not strong, a cloud slowly drifts from the east to cover the sun in the sky, it is said that this is a good sign, there are clouds to have rain, spring rain is as expensive as oil. The sunlight was blocked, and the light in the room suddenly became dim, and Li Deyi said the words in his stomach in one breath with the strength of wine. Old Medical Officer Sun took a sip of wine, looked at Li De half-sounded, and didn't speak. After Li De finished speaking, he sat quietly so quietly, and the two of them began to stare at each other with big eyes.

After about half an hour, seeing that the apprentice Li Deyi's mood gradually calmed down, his heart was calm, and he could listen to the words, so the old doctor Sun said, "Do you want to hear the teacher's opinion?" Or do you just want to talk about it? Li Deyi raised his head and looked at the master seriously and said, "I want to hear from the master." The old doctor Sun played with the wine cup in one hand, watching the wine in it swing around, but he couldn't spill a drop, and said in a deep voice: "You have read "The Romance of Taizu Dingchao", you should know that after Taizu called the emperor and founded the country, he warned the heroes who followed him to fight the world not to forget the hardships at the beginning of the army, and hoped that they would not forget their original intentions. However, after a short period of time, Taizu still copied the family property of Cao Shuangmu, an important minister who had made great contributions to him in fighting the world. According to the book, there were as many as 3 million silver coins obtained by raiding the house at that time, all of which were earned by Cao Shuangmu in those years by using his power to damage the imperial court for his own benefit. You have also seen the prosperity of Luodu City this time, and you should know that for those wealthy merchants now, three million silver coins are really nothing. For those wealthy businessmen, they can earn so much money in two or three years. ”

Li nodded and listened carefully. Old Medical Officer Sun drank the residual wine in the cup in one gulp, and Li Deyi hurriedly poured it again for the master. Old Medical Officer Sun continued: "After Taizu copied this Cao Shuangmu's family property, he sensed the harm that this extravagant trend would bring, so he personally formulated the ancestral precept, admonishing future generations to advocate frugality and not be arrogant and extravagant. However, you also know what the last three emperors of our Ping Zhou Dynasty are like, one is more extravagant than the other. Do you know why? ”

Li Deyi shook his head, and Old Doctor Sun continued: "You have also gone to Luodu City for a visit, you have eaten those delicacies, seen those silk satins, seen those pavilions, and learned about those beautiful women who are like goods. I ask you, how did you feel when you first tasted it? Li Deyi tasted it and said, "Those meals are really delicious, the first time I ate them, I almost swallowed my tongue." The clothes are also good-looking, and the pavilion is magnificent, but the woman doesn't know it, and the senior brother didn't let me touch it. Old Doctor Sun nodded: "If you think it's delicious, others will also think it's delicious, although everyone's taste is different, but the delicious food is also ever-changing." The meal that the wealthy businessman surnamed Zhao invited you to eat, how much money do you estimate to get? Li De pondered for a moment and said, "Get five hundred silver coins?" ”

Old Doctor Sun laughed and drank the wine in his hand in one gulp: "Five hundred? You can eat that fish for more than 500 silver coins, and the whole table will cost at least 3,000 silver coins. How did you get all this money? How can those high-ranking officials and nobles afford this kind of banquet just by relying on that little bit of court money. When the old doctor Sun said this, he seemed to remember some old things, and he was in tears for a while. Li Deyi didn't know why the master suddenly shed tears, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only sit dry.

Old Doctor Sun said: "Hey, all this is just two words 'greed'. At that time, for the sake of the imperial court, Dashuai Di tried his best to rectify the military affairs at the border gates, but the Son of Heaven blindly cared about his own enjoyment, and refused to give any extra money. The important ministers of the court regarded the treasury as their own treasury, and every silver coin they asked for had to be sent back to them for half of the good things. In desperation, Marshal Di could only send troops to control the tea and horse trade with the grassland, and use the money obtained from this to rectify military affairs. But I never thought that this would offend those powerful people in the DPRK who made profits by secretly trading with the Tuliao people in the grassland, and later these magnates united with the important ministers of the court and finally overthrew Di Dashuai. Later, Wei Shi secretly investigated, and Di Dashuai only embezzled less than thirty percent of their interests, so they regarded Di Dashuai as a mortal enemy who did not share the sky, and wanted to put him to death as soon as possible. ”

Li De saw that the master talked about the sad old things back then, and hurriedly poured another glass of wine for the master. Old Medical Officer Sun wiped a handful of old tears: "I can't drink anymore, Tu'er, you remember." For their own interests, in order to satisfy their own greed, there is nothing they dare not do. But the things in this world are very interesting, you see that the Ping Zhou Dynasty, up to the Son of Heaven, important ministers and magnates, down to the rich and wealthy people, they did too many dark and ugly things to damage the court for their own interests. They all have a lot of money, and they can't spend it in several lifetimes, which is still insufficient, but in the end they just made wedding clothes for the Tuliao people. They eroded the border defense of the imperial court day after day, and for their own interests, they pulled those border soldiers into the water, and engaged in private business with them, and as a result, the military defense of the imperial court was like paper paste, and in the end, the Tuliao people easily broke through the Zhongshen City, robbed them of the wealth and glory they had accumulated all their lives, and burned down the gorgeous pavilions and pavilions they had built at a huge cost. Master will tell you a rough idea of these things first, and for the rest of the matter, you should take your time to look at them, think about them slowly, and don't rush to conclusions. After speaking, when the old doctor Sun talked about these things, he felt a little sad from his heart, and he was a little overwhelmed, so he fell asleep directly on the table. Li Deyi helped the master to the kang and placed it, and then went out lightly.

In the afternoon, Dr. Xiao Liu came to discuss with Li Deyi and handed over the female nurses to Li Xiuming to take care of, and Li De agreed without thinking about it. He is also getting older, and he begins to know some things about men and women, so that he can deal with these women all day long, Li Deyi is really a little embarrassed, and now someone takes over this trouble, Li Deyi is naturally happy.

That afternoon, Li De sat in the room in a daze at first, but in the end, he felt that these things were really not something he could figure out now, and he should still listen to his senior brother and practice his skills first. Li Deyi returned to the house and took the ten-pound hammer to the sword battalion and then practiced iron-fighting.

Since Luo Hui came, let alone let him find a few iron seedlings, although they are not big mines, but they can produce some iron ore, relying on these iron ores, Weibei Camp can finally refine enough iron materials to repair the damaged weapons and armor by themselves. After Na Luo Hui called, he saw that he had really divided the room according to what he had said, and gave him rice and grain and silver coins, and this thin man shed tears on the spot, and since then, he has been running into the mountains with a few people night and night, vowing to find a big iron seedling for Weibei Camp.

Today, Li Deyi came to the sword armor camp and found an old blacksmith and asked: "I once saw in the book that during the Taizu period of the Ping Zhou Dynasty, a kind of iron armor was made of strong and abnormal, called plate armor, and the whole armor was forged from a piece of stainless steel. This kind of armor is extremely light when it is made, but it is extremely difficult to break through ordinary swords, is there such a thing? The old blacksmith pondered for a while and said, "I am sixty years old, old man, and the art of striking iron is passed down from my ancestors, and I have never heard of this kind of armor when it was handed down from my grandfather's generation." Li Deyi didn't believe it, and asked several other blacksmiths, all of whom said that they had never seen them.

Although they all said that they had never seen it, Li Deyi secretly felt that the statement about the plate armor in the book was not necessarily made up out of thin air, perhaps because the person who wrote the book was old, he did not know much about the name made inside the plate armor, but this name was very likely to have been handed down for a long time. In the afternoon of the same day, Li De asked for a large piece of iron material for the first time, and began to make a sledgehammer and a small hammer by himself. Now that the Weibei battalion is finally able to produce some iron materials by itself, several people have moved the broken knives and armor that have been damaged over the years and are reluctant to throw them away, so that the sword and armor battalion can try to repair them. Everyone in the Yidao Armor Battalion is very busy now, and it would be good to leave an anvil for Li Deyi to practice, and he couldn't spare anyone to help him at all. Fortunately, Li Deyi's original qi cultivation has now reached the realm of strength, and it is not a problem for one person to do the work of two people.

It wasn't until it was dark that Li Deyi finally forged this piece of iron into an iron plate repeatedly, and he was so happy that he couldn't care about anything else, and he picked up a knife and wanted to try it. He laid the iron plate on the ground and slashed it with a swing of his sword.
