"Come in," Bei Ji beckoned to A.

A'a tiptoed over with his two hands, and Bei Ji hurriedly caught it and put it on the stone platform next to him.

"Tell your mother, Brother Bei Ji is full, his craftsmanship is very good, and the dumplings are delicious," Bei Ji squatted down and wanted to rub A's hair, but his hands were too dirty: "Thank you for my brother, wrought iron is a dirty job, I still wash it after today's work." ”

Only then did he remember to look at himself again, Bei Ji looked down at his body, his clothes were wet, not to mention that there were even puddles of mud, and his head must not be much better.

"Would you like to have a bite to eat? This freshly steamed dumpling smells ......" Bei Ji turned his head to look to the side and asked, but he didn't continue to say anything more, because the little boy's face was full of resentment at this time, and after a while, Bei Ji asked puzzled: "What's wrong?" Why is this expression all of a sudden? ”

Pouted, asked in front of A, and asked A-A very aggrievedly: "What did you just call him?" ”

A: "Brother Beiji! ”

The mouth is getting worse and worse, and I can finally understand Fang Cai Wutuo's mood, I call my father, but I call my brother when I answer, which means that I am a round lower than A's?

Asking for a feeling of indescribable grievance in his heart, he left Bei Ji and the others in the same place, and ran out of the blacksmith shop with a smoke.

"Huh?" Uncle Li was a little confused in place with a hammer: "This kid ......"

Bei Ji seemed to understand something, smiled secretly a little embarrassed, swallowed two large plates of steamed dumplings in three or two bites, returned the bowls, and asked A's answer to take a look and ask when he went back.

A'a nodded, and Bei Ji didn't turn around until he watched A'a walk away: "Uncle Li, let's hurry up." ”

After this episode, the crisp sound of striking iron in the blacksmith shop sounded again and again, and this sound continued until dark.

Although he promised to bring food to the third aunt several times in the middle, this did not affect the continuity of the forging of the hoes, and twenty steel hoes were neatly placed on the finished stone platform.

Uncle Li rudely wiped the beads of sweat on his face with the sweatshirt that had already been soaked on his body, and poured down several large bowls of water violently, looking at the crane's beak hoe on the stone platform, his eyes flashed slightly, as if he was satisfied, and sighed: "I haven't met a peer who can be forged together for many years...... Have fun today! ”

Uncle Li laughed a few times, and changed the topic: "I didn't expect that you kid is young, not only a medical warlock, but also a forging technique, and you will definitely be a person who will achieve great things in the future!" ”

"Uncle Li is exaggerating, I still have a lot to learn from you in terms of wrought iron," Bei Ji scooped up a bowl of water and gulped down his thirst beside the water tank.

What Bei Ji said was not a kind word, at present, except for the pickaxe, he will not forge any other tools, and the unlocking of his talent and craftsmanship does require him to obtain a new decomposition tool from Uncle Li.

"I, Li Yueliang, never say exaggerated words, I am very optimistic about you in terms of talent," Uncle Li denied Pei Ji's humility: "I have been striking iron for decades, and I have seen many characters in the Imperial Weapons Department. ”

Being praised so seriously in front of others is not allowed to refute, Bei Ji is overjoyed in his heart, and he can't help but ask his soul: Am I really so good?

As if feeling that some information was missing, Bei Ji thought for a moment, and then asked in surprise: "Uncle Li was also a blacksmith in the Imperial Weapons Department?" ”

"To be precise, I used to be the number one blacksmith in the sword weapons group of the Imperial Weapons Department."

When Uncle Li said this, there was some pride in his eyes, and there were also some vicissitudes of life, Bei Ji sighed, Uncle Li can be regarded as a person who has seen big storms, and he would hide in such a small village.

As if he had guessed what Bei Ji was thinking, Uncle Li had some old memories in his mind.

The two sat on the stone platform and rested for a while, and Bei Ji wanted to get up: "Twenty pickaxes have been forged, or ...... I'll send them over now. ”

"Don't worry, it's not too late to send it tomorrow morning," Uncle Li came back to his senses and called out to Beiji: "They are just idle, and they are afraid of being ......idle for a moment while they can move and do something while their hands and feet can move."

"Scared? Do you mean the villagers who went up to the mountains to dig mines? Bei Ji was a little puzzled, and sat aside and looked at Uncle Li: "Obviously, a few days ago, because of the unknown poisonous gas in the mining, and now that he is well and goes up the mountain again, are you not afraid of being poisoned again......

Uncle Li shook his head, groaned slightly, as if he had opened the clip, hesitated for a few seconds, and then turned up his experience many years ago and told Bei Ji eloquently......

"Do you know, Sand and Gravel Village is actually a new village that has only been established for seven years, at first Uncle Heng passed by this deep mountain and old forest with his three-year-old grandson on his back, and met a group of old and sick people who could not support themselves, and felt pity, so he chose this piece of sand and gravel land near the river and established Sand and Gravel Village."

"Later, Uncle Heng saw that there were mountains, rivers and forests, life was okay, and there was a lack of a character in the village who could guard the village from being violated by the outside world, so Uncle Heng took Yuwen to live here for a long time, and Shashi Village became a place to settle down for people fleeing from war and wandering homeless......"

"These villagers who are not afraid of death are sick seedlings who can't survive at that time, Uncle Heng gave them hope to live again, they are naturally extremely rare, and they are willing to do anything, but they are afraid that they can't do it, and they are worried that after they are idle, they will live a life without food and shelter......"

Hearing Uncle Li talk about this, Bei Ji was stunned in his heart, he didn't expect that Shashi Village turned out to be a newly established village, and there was such a story at the beginning of the village, and at the same time, the perception of Heng Lao in his heart was also subverted, the village chief is not just the village chief, Heng Lao has great love in his heart, and he is a great old man.

But Bei Ji also had something to puzzle: "Isn't there a divine court in the outside world that maintains the normal operation of world order?" Why are there still wars and people fleeing? ”

Uncle Li shook his head, as if he had heard something funny: "Which era can completely escape the fate of war?" Although the existence of the Temple of the Divine Judgment has made the overall situation of the world stable, they are unable to take care of every corner, and it is not surprising that small-scale wars are inevitable. ”

Bei Ji nodded, and he still agreed with what Uncle Li said.

Recalling the two days that he came to the village with his questions, except for his grandfather, he didn't talk about his parents in front of Bei Ji, and when Uncle Li talked about the reason for building the village, he only said that Heng Lao took the question, which Bei Ji was a little concerned about.

"Uncle Li, ask his parents......"

Uncle Li was stunned, sighed and said, "I died in battle." ”

Bei was extremely dumbfounded, and some were speechless.

Uncle Li added: "It was seven years ago that Uncle Heng came to this mountainous and jungle land with grief and guilt to establish a village, Uncle Heng hopes that Uncle Heng's growth can be far away from the impact of the war in the outside world, so in the past seven years, in fact, Uncle Heng doesn't care much about the cultivation of the essence of the question, he only hopes that his grandson can have a happy childhood." ”

"Yesterday in the mountains and forests, I happened to meet and ask that when I confronted the wolf, my hands were rubbing sparks very hard......" Bei Ji thought for a while, and then said, "That kid actually still yearns to be a warlock, right?" ”

"I want to be a warlock, but I also want to be a medical warlock," Uncle Li said slowly: "The overall environment of Shashi Village in the past seven years has been a collection of all kinds of old, young, sick and disabled, and that child has seen too much, perhaps because he is deeply affected by this environment." ”

But there are no people in the village who have medical talent to teach him, maybe you can do something, Uncle Li smiled and expanded: "After all, you coerced that child to call you dad." ”

Bei Ji reacted to the ridicule in Uncle Li's words, scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and smiled, unable to think of anything to deal with for a while.

"Okay, it's not too early, I'm tired of the day, go back and have a good rest." Uncle Li took the initiative to end the topic, jumped off the stone platform and began to clean up the blacksmith shop.

Beiji nodded, picked up the clothes he had brought and walked towards the outside of the blacksmith's shop.

After a tiring day of enduring the dirty and smelly body, Bei Ji really just wants to go back and take a good bath now, and then ......

Maybe ask the kid to talk to him in person.
