Li Ji pulled Lao Luo and hurriedly turned his head, and called out in his mouth, "Grandpa, why are you sneaking behind us?" ”

Lao Luo felt a little speechless, you didn't notice it yourself, first the wicked person sued and beat a rake, and I really didn't let myself make a mistake, this girl is a fire girl, chili pepper. Looking at the person opposite, it should be his old Luo's future father-in-law, Li Nie, who was also patting his head at this time, with the same expression of speechlessness, but Li Nie's eyes were staring at Lao Luo, maybe seeing the same expression of this big man, he smiled knowingly.

"Come on, you dead woman, you still beat a rake!" Li Nie scolded the fire girl with a smile, and then turned his head to look at Lao Luo, "This is ......"

"The younger generation's surname is Luo, his name is Kaixian, his family is three, he is known as Sanlang, his ancestral home is Suizhou, Hexi, and this time he is from distant Africa, ready to return to his homeland." Lao Luo bowed respectfully, and then said to the man dressed as a blacksmith.

Li Nie's height is about 1.8 meters, and he doesn't look like he is of pure Han blood, dark brown eyes, and his eyes are a little sunken, his eyebrow bones and mountain roots are very high, his nose is firm, his mouth is wide and he has a square chin, he looks very resolute, he has a gray beard on the side of his face, and his upper body is wearing the same linen cloth and cowhide shoulders, and the muscles on his exposed arms can be seen.

However, his forehead was clearly a little sluggish, some sparse gray hair was tied in a loose bun at the back of his head, his face was very red, his skin was rough, and he also had a belt around his waist, and a leather apron, which was characteristic of a blacksmith.

Li Nie's eyes were very firm, when Li Zhan commented on his brother, he used to say that he was silent, but now according to Lao Luo's experience, this is a very wise person, but maybe he is not good at it or disdains to say more.

"Hexi...... Suizhou ......" Li Nie groaned, his eyes narrowed, and Li Ji on the side probably saw his grandfather's expression for the first time, and made a grimace at Lao Luo.

When Lao Luo wanted to speak and remind, Li Nie's eyes widened, "Is it the Suizhou north of Yanzhou?" ”

"That's right, just north of Yanzhou, originally belonged to Gyeonggi Province, Guannai Province," Lao Luo is of course very familiar with his hometown, including history, Yanzhou refers to Yan'an in the later generations, Suizhou was probably renamed Suide by the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty at this time, "My Luo family ancestors probably moved out after the Anshi Rebellion, and then the family ran around, and the specific experience is no longer available." ”

Lao Luo understands that at this time, he has to ask about his family background, since he promised to marry Li Ji, then he must face these, even white lies must be compiled perfectly, otherwise why should people believe you and marry their daughter to you.

Of course, he is also very smart, even if these descendants of the Tang Dynasty are in the Western Regions, they must also know about the Anshi Rebellion, at that time, the Tang Empire in the East was in chaos, and it was normal for the household registration to be separated. In this era, if there is no government control, the movement of population is actually very large, and it is very common to escape the war and find a good settlement. There is really a perfect household registration management system, in fact, in the Song Dynasty, the armor protection system began in the Song Dynasty, of course, there is also a kind of neighborhood watch and help each other's spirit, but this spirit was completely abandoned by the Oriental people after a thousand years.

When the people here recognize Lao Luo's identity, then after arriving in the East, there will be people here to endorse him, and there is no need to worry about how to explain his identity, and Luo Kaixian, the professional soldier after a thousand years, has completely integrated into this era.

Li Nie listened to Lao Luo's answer and sighed, "Yes, Xuanzong was mediocre, so that Heng Rus was defeated that year, and then the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty fell to the end, and its demise was inevitable. ”

"Grandpa!" Li Ji screamed admonishingly beside her, because there were craftsmen who had stopped busy next to her and were staring at this side.

"Nothing, what can't be said?" Li Nie looked around for a while, and then said to Li Ji: "Don't listen to the nonsense of your second uncle, Longping and Sanfang, the Li family is no longer a royal family, and the royal family is so easy to do?" ”

Lao Luo vaguely heard it, what kind of people who dare to love Li Zhan and Zhang Lu still have this kind of thought, usually seeing Zhang Lu's respect for Li Zhan, it turns out that this is the case. But this matter is not something that can be said now or here, Lao Luo should not have heard it, and when they met for the first time, it was no good to talk too much.

"Luo ...... San Lang, there is no word, so call you that, right? Li Nie's voice is still very loud, probably because of the inertia of the blacksmith profession.

"That's right, senior, no, uncle." Lao Luo didn't know what to call it, so he had to call it that.

"What is the name of uncle, is called Shibo!" Li Nie had a straightforward temper and shouted in a loud voice, "I must be older than your grandfather!" What does your grandfather do, and where are your grandfather and aunt? ”

"They are in America, a place that the world does not know, and there are still 20,000 miles to cross the sea to the east." Lao Luo Xin said nonsense, although make it up, no one can confirm it anyway, at least not now, he replied to Li Nie's question: "Grandpa is a physician who practices medicine, Auntie likes to teach children to learn words, the eldest brother works as a ranch over there, and the second brother is a businessman, only I like to march and fight, and I like to take risks, so with their permission, I plan to return to my hometown." ”

"How far do you say? There are still 20,000 miles to cross the sea in the east? There is a sea in the east, I know, apart from the sea there is also land? Li Nie's eyes widened, and Li Ji and the craftsmen watching the excitement next to him also had the same expression.

"That's right, it's a new continent, it's completely different from ours here, the bison in the mountains, the locals are very simple, and the men there like to comb their hair in big braids on both sides of their ears," Lao Luo gestured with his hand, and simply made up the Americas of this era, anyway, it is difficult for these people to go to that place, and no one in this era can go there, no suitable ship can reach that land, not to mention that few people know about places like the Bering Strait, "However, there are barbarian tribes thousands of miles away in the south, They like to worship the god of the sun and the god of snakes, well, the people there worship a kind of snake with wings called Quetzalcoatl, and they like to make sacrifices with living people. ”

"Dao Ancestor is above, there is still such a place, those southern tribes must be barbarians!" Li Nie sighed, "Then why didn't your grandfather and aunt come back?" Still in that barbaric place? ”

Lao Luo noticed that Li Nie was shouting that the Taoist ancestor was on top, and then he remembered that the Li family believed in Taoism, and he smiled, "Shibo, they are old, they will definitely not be able to go too far, and there are also very powerful local tribes who respect them very much." ”

"I can't imagine that there is a place like that in this world." Li Nie sighed a little, and then said: "It's just a pity, it's not easy to see your in-laws in the future." ”

"Grandpa!" Li Ji's face turned red instantly, and she hurriedly whispered.

"Okay, I won't say it, San Lang, you and Siniang go to play, don't disturb our craftsmen busy, go, hurry up!" After Li Ne finished speaking, he urged the two of them to leave quickly, because he found that the people in the workshop had stopped, and he began to shout loudly at the surroundings, "What do you see, hurry up and get down to business, you can't pay the errand, you are all waiting to be hungry!" ”

The craftsmen who had just watched the excitement quietly began to shout, "Boss Li, your daughter has found you a good son-in-law." ”

"Yes, that's right, a magical son-in-law."

"But this big man doesn't look like he is striking iron, I guess Boss Li, you are worried."

"Hey, I really didn't see that Siniang's Martian temper could find such a husband!"

"That's right, Siniang, don't listen to your grandfather, introduce us to you."

"That's right, big man, don't go, come and tell us about your adventures."

“…………”

Li Ji's face was about to drip blood, so she pulled Lao Luo and ran outside, at this time she couldn't remember what she had taught her little brother a lesson.

Behind him was Li Nie's roar, "I'm sorry, Zhang Laoliu, Lu Laosi, you old guys, you are not the shy when you married your daughter-in-law, shut up and go to work!" Or I'll shake off all your virtues to your apprentices! ”

Old Luo Ben wanted to see the actual level of craftsmanship here, but now it was all useless, even if he was not pulled out by Li Ji, he felt that he couldn't withstand the firepower of these old blacksmiths, which was much more troublesome than cutting people with a big blade.

He didn't blush, but his face was still twitching until Li Ji pulled him around to the workshop in the back.

Li Ji stopped, turned his head to look at his face, found this, and smiled, "Third brother, what's wrong with your face?" Why do you always have tics? ”

"Alas, Siniang, didn't your second uncle say that your grandfather doesn't like to talk too much," Lao Luo rubbed his face with his hand, and it was easy to calm himself down, "He and the old guy in the workshop just now...... This voice ......"

"Hehe, third brother, you also have times when you are embarrassed," Li Ji didn't look shy at all at this time, and found that Lao Luo was not an indifferent wooden bump, and she also thought it was funny, "Grandpa just doesn't like to talk more about family affairs, and he is usually very rigid, and he only laughs when he is in the workshop, and those old guys in the workshop are the same as the wrought iron stove, with a hot temper." ”

Lao Luo wanted to say in his heart, did you also learn from them, with a fiery temper or something. But when he turned his head and thought about it, he thought that his ears would be quiet when he said this, he glanced left and right, and simply changed the topic, "Siniang, where did you run with me?" ”

Li Ji pulled Lao Luo around the two tall houses, which should be workshops, and there was a row of tall houses not far from where they stood, but the difference from the front was that there were not so many chimneys, but only a huge chimney, and there was no smoke at this time. Li Ji was distracted, and then remembered that he was going to take Lao Luo around, "Oh, this is a foundry, which is to make relatively large workpieces, do you want to go and have a look?" ”

Lao Luo actually guessed when he looked at the architectural style outside, "Well, let's go and have a look." ”
