Chapter 289: Chimney
This dark horse is different from the cassopenyary born in the constellation Orion, this is Selik's war horse! Not only is the body well-proportioned and powerful, the coat color is black and shiny, and this horse also comes with its own drape: face armor, breastplate, and hip armor. Qin Xiaoman knew that this was the moment when the Seven Swords were mighty, and his left hand slapped on the saddle, and three steel thorns more than a foot long popped out on the hip armor of the war horse. The Dark Horse Man stood up and ran into the Seven Swords team with a hiss.
This mount is more than a notch above the Cassourfayary!
Born in Orion, he opened his mouth and couldn't close his jaw for a long time: "I'll go, you guys...... You cheat! The Cassowary is the standard mount at level 30! β
The Seven Swords players ignored him, and one by one they walked into the teleportation array and disappeared, leaving behind a row of middle fingers in the chat window......
There was no teleportation array in Shihong Village, so Seven Swords could only go to Jasper Town first, and then walk to Shihong Village.
Angela asked Xiao Man, "Sister Xiao Man, why did you come so fast?" You were in Jasper just now, right? β
"Hmm. I went to Jasper Town to submit the precautions for fire prevention during the autumn harvest. The mayor of the town has accepted it, and he is also ready to report the fire prevention requirements to Bluestone City and promote it on an intercity scale. β
Feng Wu Jiutian said: "This is also a suggestion that is very beneficial to disaster prevention and mitigation in winter. I just don't know if Bluestone City will give a reward. By the way, Xiao Man, how is your horse not the same as the Cassowary of Orion? I mean, the dark horse's spirit head is significantly taller than the cassowary! β
"The state of both the mount and the pet is related to loyalty to the owner. From time to time, groom, feed and drink the mount. Uyunna and I are now in a state of 'satisfaction' with our relationship, and of course we are in good spirits. However, mounts, like pets, are the easiest to develop high-quality relationships when hatched. The hardest to capture! Uyunna was 'influenced' by me, so she was able to refresh the relationship to a satisfactory level in half a day. β
Su Cheng was dismissive of the cassowary on the surface, but in his heart he attached great importance to it: "The acquisition of mounts is related to everyone's game efficiency. Let's see, if we all had mounts, we would have arrived in Shihong Village at this time. So we have to get a good grasp of that. And this door opening task...... Both mounts have appeared in Bluestone City, but there is no announcement of the opening mission. This is an opportunity to get mounts that are of higher quality before the door opening mission is completed than after the door is opened. There is also the matter of the first snow Emei...... I have to think about it. Angela, tell us about the intersection of Hatsuyuki and the three of us. β
Chu Xue Emei, Tiger Hand and Su Cheng, Angela, and the teenager Ah Fei are brothers and sisters born in a family in the game. Not many people know about Seven Swords. Angela told Barabala, including Su Cheng's help to Chu Xue and some cooperation with the Xuyuan Guild.
Feng Wu Jiutian 'defected' to the Seven Swords from the Jingwu Sect, and he saw the entanglement of interests between the guilds more clearly: "The Xuyuan Guild is too stingy in this matter. Although the development of Chu Xue's guild is not satisfactory, her gang can be regarded as a force to be reckoned with among the players of Bluestone City. As a guild player, if I had to make a fair evaluation, the development of Hatsuyuki should be at the upper level of the midstream - the number of people is not enough, but the quality is high. It's not easy. β
Su Sushu knew a little bit about the affairs between Su Cheng and the Xuyuan Guild, and at this time, Yin Yang said strangely: "In the entire Bluestone City, more than half of the purple weapons are in the hands of the Seven Swords. The Zhuyuan Guild has obtained more than ten purple weapons from Brother Orange, and it can be said that their core group, because of the brother-sister relationship between Chu Xue and Brother Orange, the strength has been greatly improved! I'm still not satisfied with the first snow, I don't think the time to plant Zhu Yuan is not far away! β
Shihong Village is a predominantly agricultural village, and the villagers mainly grow cotton and wheat. At this time, the autumn harvest has passed, and the fields are covered with a thin layer of snowflakes. In the courtyards of the villagers, there are many stacks of cotton stacked high, although they are covered by curtains, but the firefighting work must not be neglected.
Looking at the black smoke with sparks rising from the chimneys in the courtyards of the three or two houses, Su Cheng felt a little headache: "That family, that family, are the poorest families in the village, right?" β
Xiao Man smiled: "Yes, I've already seen it." Because of poverty, these families are still using wheat straw to start fires and wood to cook. It's very dangerous! β
"Is there any way you can get them to use coal to make a fire? By the way, two bricks should be added to the chimney, which has a certain blocking effect on fireworks. β
"No way. They are so poor that they can't afford to burn coal, so I can't afford to buy them for them? Well, that's all it looks like! β
"Isn't there a way for you? Let's go and have a look! β
This large group of men and horses drove into Shihong Village, which immediately attracted the attention of the Autumn Protection Team. Several neatly dressed villagers lined up in a casual formation to greet Su Cheng: "Lord Lord? I don't know why adults bring so many people to my Shihong Village? β
Su Cheng picked up the shelf, swung his chin, and asked Qin Xiaoman to go up and speak: "I'll put up a shelf, it's convenient to go back and do things!" β
Qin Xiaoman couldn't help but smile and stepped forward and said, "Third brother, this Lord Twilight Orange heard that there have been several fires in Shihong Village recently, so he specially came to take a look. He is very enthusiastic about disaster prevention and relief, and he is also an expert in fire safety! β
The third brother was not disgusted with Lord Lord's shelf, and felt that this was what a big man should do: "The adults are concerned about the fire prevention matters in Shihong Village, and the little ones are very grateful." Xiaojun, you go and inform the village chief, and ask the old man to accompany the lord. "One of the autumn guards took the order.
Su Cheng pointed to a courtyard: "Third brother, look, the fireworks of this villager are different from others. Presumably because of the firewood, right? β
The third brother was very helpful to Lord Lord to call himself 'third brother': "My lord, that's Zhang Xuming's family. His family is a very poor family in the village. It's not that the poor can't afford to burn coal, it's that the stingy don't want to burn! When the weather is really cold, his family will also burn coal! β
Zhang Xuming's yard is not large, and from the outside, you can see stacks of firewood that are two people high against the wall, half of them are wheat grass, and most of them are dead branches and dead trees, just piled up in the open air.
As soon as the third brother pushed the courtyard door, there were two 'squeaks' and 'pops', and the dilapidated door panel was half opened and fell directly to the ground.
A thin, dry, unkempt man burst out of the room: "Who? Why did you break the gate of my house? β
The third brother pushed down the door panel and stepped aside, and now it was Lord Lord standing in front of the courtyard gate - this was directly buttoned by Zhang Xuming for destroying personal property.
Before Su Cheng could speak, Zhang Xuming saw clearly that it was a nobleman: "Lord Lord!" Your old man comes to the humble house, which villain ...... Not very ...... Which honors! Why did you knock down the courtyard door of my house? β
Not an honor? There are so many illiterates in the Holy Passage! Su Cheng couldn't cry and laughed: "How many copper plates can this broken door plate cost?" Since Benjue has come to the door, the benefits or disadvantages that you will give you are not something that can be done with a few gold coins! β
The third brother interjected at this time: "You rammer!" Your door panel was knocked down by the third brother! Do you want me to pay you a few big-ear scrapers? β
Zhang Xuming slapped himself in the face: "The third brother is laughing!" You just took my door panel and chopped the barbecue, and I have nothing to say. As long as you call me to eat two mouthfuls together! β
Su Cheng stepped into the small courtyard, looked at Zhang Xu's firewood stack, and looked up at his chimney: he saw a stream of sparks mixed with black smoke floating out of the chimney.
"Zhang Xuming, look at it, the sparks in your chimney seem to be floating in the direction of the village chief's house!"
Zhang Xuming opened his mouth wide and stayed with a mouthful of saliva. He was stunned and knelt in the snow with a plop: "My lord, don't you dare to say that!" I can't afford to provoke the village chief! My lord...... Adult, the villain is dizzy, the villain's door panel turned out to be leaning against the door frame, and it has never been broken! β
Su Cheng said: "You get up!" Don't let people think that Benjue will think anything of you, a poor ghost. Besides, today is the east wind. The east wind in the local winter has always been a breeze, and it can't blow the Mars that far. Also, there is less east wind and more west wind! Think about it, what kind of wind was blowing on the day the village chief's house caught fire? β
Zhang Xuming knelt on his knees, opened his mouth and thought for a long time before he said: "I remember, the west wind blew the day before yesterday." My back window paper is broken......" to get rid of suspicion, a smile appeared on his thin face again: "Good adult, don't you dare to be so petty!" The small ones are old and small, but they can't stand a small thumb from a big man like you......" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gestured to make a crushing gesture: "Such a crush!" β
Su Cheng also laughed: "So, do you think that if the east wind blows a little stronger, will the sparks in your chimney burn to the village chief's house?" β
"No, no, no! Break doesn't ...... Look, adult, my family and the village chief's house, not to mention dozens or hundreds of steps apart, there are still several families between the two families, Li Sihai's family and Wang Xiaolan's family! Even if a few sparks come out, you can only burn ......" Zhang Xuming didn't finish speaking, he reached out and covered his mouth!
Su Cheng flicked his fingers, and a gold coin flew into the sky.
Zhang Xuming was covering his mouth, looking at Su Cheng in surprise, at this time, he was blessed to his heart, and he put his hands together and took the gold coin in his hand: "My lord, you gave me this reward?" β
"I'll buy all the firewood and grass in your yard. You use the gold to buy some anthracite coal to burn. Would you like to? β
"What the big man means, the little man saves. Aren't you afraid that the sparks from my firewood will ignite other people's cotton stacks? It's all right, look at it - it's all covered! β
You're not stupid.
"Tell me yourself, do I send someone to pull the firewood and grass away, or do I put you here and give it to you when the cotton in the village is sold out?"
"What do you say? The firewood that your old man wants has been placed in the villain's yard, and the villain doesn't dare to touch it! Villain saved! β
"I'll send someone to check anytime! If I find out that you dare to use this firewood and grass to start a fire again, I will take back that gold coin with profit! β
After some coaxing and frightening, Su Cheng no longer paid attention to Zhang Xuming and walked out of the courtyard, only to see Xiaojun leading a rich old man to come quickly.
This old man is naturally the village chief. Maybe it's because he wants to meet the big guys, the village chief is dressed in a new outfit, and his face is full of harmony. He bowed deeply to Su Cheng from afar: "I don't know that Lord Lord came to my Shihong Village to observe the people's feelings, and the villain didn't welcome him from afar, it's really damned!" β
"Village Chief, your elders, seniors, don't say these kind words!" Su Cheng returned the salute.
"I wonder what you have to say? The villain has prepared thin wine at home, and invites the adults to appreciate the light and drink two glasses of light wine to drive away the cold. Adults' views on Shihong Village can also be slowly narrated in the villain's home! "It's okay for adults to come and drink two cups, it's our honor, but why do you bring so many people, adults? If we go into battle together, it is still a trivial matter to eat an extra gold coin and a half gold coin for the old man, if so many people toast the old man one by one, my alcoholic liver can't stand it!
"It's going to teach the village chief to break the bank. We talked as we walked. I'm going to have to do something for these men, so they don't have nothing to do!" β
What does it mean to 'do nothing out of nothing'? The Seven Swords people brushed a row of miscellaneous expressions and gave Boss Su with disdain: "Boss, you have to put on a score in front of the village chief, and we have no objection in the water and fire." You don't have to pickle us, do you? β
However, the boss ignored them and arranged a bunch of things for them: "In a group of two or three people, refer to your own fire protection knowledge, and give me a look at the fire safety hazards in the village." The team that finds the problem will each have 10 mercenary group points. Tianshan follows me to fill the faΓ§ade! "And bring a sidekick!
Su Cheng and Liu Tianshan, accompanied by the village chief and his entourage, first walked around the village. It's not a blind turn, but a glance at two families of firewood!
Hearing that firewood could cause a fire in the village, and looking at the village chief's bulging eyes, the two families did not even dare to stumble, and immediately agreed to use coal for cooking and heating until the cotton in the village was bought. Well, the Lord was delighted, and gave each family a gold coin for the 'heating subsidy'. What is the heating subsidy, everyone doesn't know, everyone knows the yellow gold coins!
Several villagers who had taken care of the sparks emitting from the chimney, and more than a dozen teams of 'fire prevention observers' from Qijian also came news one after another.
Su Susu: "I have an old man who smokes here, and he also litters cigarette butts!" β
Sanqi opened the door: "Brother Orange, I have an old man here, I took a cigarette stick more than a foot long, and I still smoked tobacco!" Who knows what kind of smoke this is? β
"How long is a foot? It's dry tobacco, right? Write down their names. Keep turning. When I call you, gather at the village chief's house! β
Qin Xiaoman: "Brother Orange, Sanmao is still fighting everywhere!" I said he didn't listen. What to do? β
"Who is Sanmao?"
"Villager Wang Xiaolan's child. It's an NPC bear kid! β
"You follow first. I'll go to the village chief's house and sit down and come out! β
Feng Wu Jiutian: "Everyone is working hard......"
Su Sushu heard this: "Only the boss is destined to study tobacco and alcohol...... Su Lao has big fish and big meat, we have to observe everywhere! Fire Observer? Who came up with the name? β
Sanqi opened the door: "Boss, hurry up." This old man who smokes dry cigarettes, the flames in the smoke pot are a little different! It feels like ...... Just to a living creature! β
"Keep an eye on it! I'll do it as soon as possible! β
The yard of the village chief's house is huge. Su Cheng looked left and right, and didn't find any miserable scene after the fire.
The village chief smiled a little embarrassedly: "My lord, have you heard about the villain's house?" It's in the backyard. The poor villain's hard work for a year has been in vain! Do you want to go to the scene? β
It's okay for you to expose your scars, so I won't rub salt on your scars: "I heard that the village chief has suffered a lot of losses. This is a lesson from the past, your village must play the role of the autumn protection team, and strictly investigate all kinds of fire hazards, so as not to bring greater losses to the villagers! Benjue speaks ugly, but he is telling the truth...... Village chief, please think about it, the property damage caused by the fire may be bearable, if it causes human life, you will always have to eat and hang! β
The village chief wiped his sweat: "What the lord said is true! If the adult's subordinates find any signs of fire in the village, please don't show mercy to the adults and tell the little ones all! If the little one can't be corrected, let the small family start a fire again next year! β
The NPC's oath is very effective......
If you have something in your heart, you can eat quickly.
Su Cheng tapped the chopsticks in the bowl twice, even if he had eaten it, he didn't care that the village chief was still chewing slowly: "Village chief, are there a lot of smokers in your village?" β
The village chief swallowed a mouthful of food that had just been put in his mouth with difficulty: "Smoking is bad for your health!" So young people don't smoke much, mainly a few old people, who have nothing to do and can't quit! β
"Seniors like to walk around the village. But now the village is full of cotton, in case they accidentally start a fire because they smoke, but there is still a face to live in the village? β
The village chief looked at Su Cheng a little embarrassed: "Dissatisfied adults, these old men, the little ones also know each other, and some of them are still small elders." It's a bit difficult for the little ones to persuade them! β
"The old men gave it to Ben to advise. I heard that Wang Xiaolan's child Sanmao often throws artillery battles in the village, can the village chief correct the behavior of this bear child? β
"Sanmao, this doll, others can't control it, only what his mother Wang Xiaolan says, he may listen!"
You can't control the old one, and you have to push the small one? Su Cheng's vision was a little unkind: "So can the village chief guarantee that in addition to these people, there are no fire hazards in the rest of the village?" β
The village chief sneered: "That is, two old people, one bear child, and other villains can deal with it!" β
Su Cheng stroked his forehead. Village Chief, that's a very good character all over the world, what's the matter with you? I'll help you, you don't even send out tasks now! Could it be that a group of people like Qijian went to Shihong Village to engage in firefighting today, just to volunteer for you? Shihong Village is not in Huyang Town! If you are an incompetent village chief and become the village chief in Benjue's jurisdiction, Benjue will jerk you off in minutes!
Changing to the title of 'Mayor of Huyang Town', Su Cheng said: "Village Chief, can you guarantee that there are no other fire hazards in Shihong Village except for the two old men Su Laiman, Boss Qi and Sanmao, the bear child?" β
Village Chief Kabakaba eyes: "There is also the cigarette holder of Zhang Xuming's family!" β
This village chief looks like a "Zhu Bajie" (Wu Neng), but he is still very clear about the situation in the village.
"Zhang Xuming's family will no longer burn firewood and wheat straw from now on. What else is bad for fire prevention? β
"The villain is guaranteed to be gone. As long as the adults can help the small persuade these people, other fire prevention matters can be borne by the small one! β
The village chief didn't give Su Cheng any tasks in the end.
Su Cheng had to deal with Sanmao who fired the cannon first: "Let's talk about it, who has a way to deal with the bear child?" β
β¦β¦
Everyone is young, and Liu Tianshan is the only one with children.
Liu Tianshan saw that everyone didn't speak, so he had to take the lead in speaking: "My child is only three years old. I will only take care of him, not deal with him! β
Su Sushu abused him: "You are online for more than ten hours a day now, I'm afraid you won't take your children, right?" β
"Nonsense! I don't have more than eight hours a day! β
"Who stayed online for thirteen hours yesterday?"
"The rest of the time, it's my wife playing!"
Rumble......
"The Holy Way has this setting!" Feng Wu Jiutian said: "Each account can set one or two 'guest accounts', which is convenient for a family or three or two friends with a good relationship to play the same number." The highest authority is the original fingerprint or retina binder. This cannot be changed. β
"I'll you, a wonderful hero! Do you know what I said to your wife yesterday? Your uncle, when I see your wife in the future, do you still have the face to speak? No wonder I think you're weird! β
"Su Susu, do you want me to repeat what you said to my wife now?"
"Okay! You're my brother, okay? β
Su Cheng: "...... I don't care which of you is the brother and who is the brother! Now who has a clue about this mission? β
King Kong Cat: "I have a story to tell you. Maybe it will inspire the boss. Not long! β
It is said that there is an old man who is a crooked nut. The old man had a nervous breakdown, so he rented a house on the outskirts of a small town. He thought it was quieter. Who would have thought that there was a group of delinquent teenagers nearby, passing by not far from his house every day - there was a billboard made of tin sheets on the side of the road - this group of delinquent teenagers would kick the tin board every day! This action caused great trouble to the old man. The old man observed for two days and found that every time these teenagers passed by the iron plate, they would compete to see who could kick the loudest! The old man stopped the young men while they were kicking the iron plate: "Young man, I like the sound of you kicking the iron plate. Here's a gold coin...... Oh, a fivepence coin. Whoever of you kicks the loudest, I'll give him a coin! The teenagers kicked for three days. On the fourth day, the old man said to the boys: I have been a little short of money lately, and I can only give three pennies to the person who kicks the loudest! The teenagers were not satisfied, but continued to play. On the fifth day, the old man put on a weeping face: I don't have much money, so I can only give a penny to the best among you! The teenagers are very angry: they don't have money and still want to hear us kick the iron plate? You think beautifully! From then on, the old man gained tranquility......
The old man gained tranquility, and Liu Tianshan and King Kong Cat also received a nickname: Tianshan Wonder Man became a wonderful hero; The King Kong cat is known as 'Hermes', who told you to like storytelling as much as Hermes?
King Kong Cat doesn't care: "Hermes is Hermes, maybe you are tired of shouting that day, change it to Sherlock Holmes for me!" β
Liu Tianshan was a little trembling: "I said big sisters, big brothers, it's okay if you step on me like this, if my daughter-in-law asks online, what do you say?" You can't tell the truth! β
Su Sushu: "What's wrong?" Want us to partner up to cheat on your daughter-in-law? β
Liu Tianshan sweated: "How dare I? I'll give you a code. If my daughter-in-law uses my number, it must be normal. What about me, after going online, I will say hello to everyone first, verify the identity, if my daughter-in-law changes me, I will type a random number, such as 666, 888 or something. Everyone must be inclusive! β
Fu Tao said earnestly: "You all heard it? For the sake of the sexual happiness of Tianshan, everyone must keep this matter in mind! However, in order to give Tianshan a chance to show his heart, wait for this bear child, Tianshan, ah......"
