(For @sweet and sour fish plus more)

Ma Bentang's knife fell on the little carpenter's old snow, and he felt a powerful force suddenly attacking him, half of his arm was sore, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.

After he stood still, he looked at the young man in front of him with a stunned expression, and finally understood why the other party was so bold.

When people are capable, they can't contain their arrogance.

This is a young man with real skills, which is why he is so tough.

However, Ma Bentang was not convinced, he didn't think that the other party was a powerful character at first, so he was not fully prepared, and after hearing Miss Ma's order not to take the other party's life, he regained his strength.

That's why he became a knife and suffered a loss after the competition.

At this moment, he was full of qi, stimulating the meridians, feeling the explosive power return to his body, and then grabbed the knife and rushed back again, but the gray-haired old knifeman next to him shouted: "Okay, don't make trouble." ”

Ma Bentang was originally that unruly and arrogant person, but he didn't dare to disobey the words of this old swordsman, so he had to stop.

But he didn't put down his knife, but asked with a puzzled expression: "Cui Ye, what do you mean?" ”

The old swordsman said: "People have already saved face for us, so there is no need to make such an ugly fuss." ”

Ma Bentang felt aggrieved in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "Are you afraid of him too? ”

The old swordsman's face sank suddenly, and he said: "People are right, our Ma Jiaji is also a place to talk about rules, don't poke the backbone of the people on the road." Alright, you go collect firewood, and I'll make a fire......"

After speaking, he didn't pay any attention to the fried Ma Bentang, but stepped forward and said to the little carpenter: "Little brother, he has encountered something in the past few days, and his temper is inevitably a little irritable, please forgive me." ”

The man was polite and looked quite generous, and the little carpenter actually didn't want to offend this Northwest giant, so he also took the knife, and then said, "It's okay." ”

With that, he walked past a few people, came to the campfire, and then quietly put the knife aside.

In front of so many people, it was difficult for him to take back the Luban Secret Seal.

He stirred the soup pot with a spoon, and saw that it was already tumbling and bubbling, so he tasted the taste, and felt a little lighter, so he put some salt, tasted it, and it was just right, so he took the bowl and chopsticks next to him, filled two bowls of soup, and specially added more meat, and handed it to the old man and the young man next to him.

He said kindly: "Come, taste it, I bought it from the best mutton stall in Yange Town, and the taste is absolutely authentic." ”

When the little lion smelled the fragrant mutton soup, he was already so hungry that his saliva flowed, but Lao Tiantou saw that the two sides had reconciled, and he was bold enough to thank him.

The little carpenter called the two to sit down by the campfire, and the little lion took out three roasted naan from behind him and handed them to the little carpenter.

He said brother, naan.

It turned out that he had always remembered the little carpenter's instructions, looking at this baked naan, just now he saw the people of Ma Jiaji menacing, but he still remembered to hide this naan.

The little carpenter saw that the young man's hands were dirty with naan, but he didn't mind, took one, and said, "It's delicious, it's not enough for me to have." ”

The young man was obviously in a hurry, and he didn't have the restraint just now, squatted down, and then took the naan and gnawed it viciously.

The naan is made of fine noodles, and it is baked crispy, and when he bites it, his mouth is full of fragrant noodles, and then, he picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of mutton soup, ouch hey, that delicious yo, so that he almost bit his tongue down - the only drawback of this soup is that it is a little hot, and the little lion drank two or three sips in a row, only to feel that it was hot to his mouth, and hurriedly blew it, and blew it twice, and was in a hurry to drink the soup, and the whole person's eyes were bright.

When the little carpenter saw him like this, he couldn't help but think of his former self, and couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, there's still something in the pot." ”

The little lion bit the crispy lamb stewed in the bowl, nodded vigorously, and said uh-huh.

The little carpenter smiled, looked at the half-sized boy, and took a sip of the soup - in fact, this mutton soup is not delicious, after all, it is only boiling, and it is not at all comparable to the kind of mutton soup that has been stewed for a long time.

The main reason why the little lion eats so happily is because he has too little oil and water in his stomach, and he may not have eaten anything good when he is young, and the mutton bought in this market has a lot of seasonings, so it is like this.

But he can also understand the other party's feelings, after all, he also came over like this in the first place.

Not to mention this hot mutton soup, when the clear soup in the stomach is low and watery, even if it is a little rancid, I feel very delicious.

A few people were drinking soup and eating roasted naan here, and the young lady of the Ma family, who was waiting for the fire not far away, looked a little hungry - she was born in the Ma family in Qinghai, and was loved by the old lady, she has been dressed and eaten since she was a child, and her food and clothing are first-class, but in this wilderness, her stomach is hungry and screaming, and she is inevitably a little curious when she sees others eating so deliciously.

However, she also knew that she had just had a fight with the boy who lost his horse, and now that it was hot, she might not be able to eat any good fruit.

It's just that where is the so-called "best mutton stall in Yange Town"?

She's really curious......

The little carpenter didn't care about the movements of the people on the left, and drank a pot of mutton soup with Lao Tiantou's grandson, roasted a few naan, and finally fed the belly of the half-sized child, and then Lao Tiantou rushed to clean it up, and he didn't stop it.

After a simple wash, he got some straw and spread it next to the bonfire, and a few people from the Ma family set out the fire over there, and it was not as hot as here, just dry food and some jerky, and he choked when he ate it.

The little carpenter didn't know why a few people from the Ma family set appeared in this mountain temple in the middle of the night, but he felt that he should be in a hurry, because the water in their skin bags was drunk dry, and they didn't sway for a long time, and when the Ma family lady ate the cake, she choked and rolled her eyes.

Ma Bentang was a little surprised to see that there was still water to wash dishes and chopsticks here, and he was embarrassed to come over and ask for a little.

After struggling for a long time, he didn't want his eldest lady to be wronged after all, so he came over with a hard head.

But he didn't ask for it, but said to the little carpenter in a rough voice: "Hey, surnamed Gan, do you have any extra water?" I'll buy it from you. ”

The little carpenter looked at him and did not speak.

Ma Bentang suddenly became anxious, took out a piece of silver from his pocket, and said, "I'll make a high price, okay?" ”

But the little carpenter smiled and said, "A friend of mine told me that there is a slang saying in the West, which is called 'giving people roses, and the hand has a lingering fragrance', and this principle is the same in our place." Take the water and keep the money for yourself. ”

After speaking, he took out a leather bag from a pile of utensils placed next to him, specially unscrewed the opening, poured some water, drank it himself, then covered it and threw it to Ma Bentang.

Ma Bentang saw that this person was not very old, but his bearing in walking the rivers and lakes was extraordinary, and he also put away his resentment, arched his hand towards him, and turned back.

Miss Ma got water, poured it into her water bladder, and then hurriedly drank two sips, slowed down, and then turned around.

She looked at the little carpenter through the jumping campfire.

Because of the angle, she could only see the little carpenter's face.

It's kind of handsome.

This little man seems to be different from the peers she knew before......

He treats people like his own family, and he is polite and polite to villagers like his grandfather and grandson; And when it comes to people with backgrounds like themselves, they are extraordinarily strong and refuse to bow their heads at all.

This is true even if the sword is drawn against each other......

Why?

Just when Miss Ma was thinking nonsense, at this time, two more uninvited guests came to the mountain temple.

The little carpenter had already packed up and was ready to sleep, but when he heard the movement at the door, he subconsciously turned his head and saw a young man dressed in Western style and oily hair and powder, followed by a tall black-jacketed swordsman, into the temple.

The young man was wearing a white suit and white leather shoes, not to mention that this kind of dress was rare in this wilderness, even in a realm like Jinling, and it seemed very inconsistent to appear here at this moment.

However, the man didn't feel it at all, but was quite complacent, and after coming in, he looked at the field, and then walked to the Ma family and a few people.

He shouted enthusiastically: "Cousin Xiaoxia, I didn't expect you to be here, it's really too coincidental." ”

Later, he greeted the other two: "Uncle Cui, cousin Ben." ”

The old swordsman in Ma Jiaji was a silent man, looked at him, and did not speak, while Ma Bentang stood up and asked, "Hu Helu, why are you here?" ”

The young man in the white suit said the name of the place, then recited nonsense, and then raised his hand, but saw the tall and big black-jacketed knifeman behind him with a wooden food box, and the white suit asked eagerly, "Have you eaten?" I've got some food here, so let's eat together. ”

He took out the food and wine from the food box and placed them in front of him, and the little carpenter glanced at it, and knew that the young man named Hu Helu should have come with him on purpose.

Obviously, he is also one of Miss Ma's suitors.

It's just that he could be the guy who stole the white horse and came to borrow flowers to offer Buddha?

The little carpenter had already put this matter down, just watched coldly from the side, and didn't pay attention to it, and when he heard the cup being pushed next to him, eating and drinking, he didn't care, and the grandson of the Tian family next to him also rushed for a day, and he was full of food and drink, and he was sleepy, squinting beside him.

There were so many people here that it was difficult to meditate, so he took the knife in his arms and took a nap beside him, and was about to fall asleep in a daze.

Of course, in front of so many strangers, he definitely couldn't sleep to death like the Tian family's grandchildren.

I don't know how long it took, but the little carpenter felt like he was really going to fall asleep, and suddenly, he heard a movement of the tiles above his head, and then there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and it fell down sharply.

Worst......
