It's easy to say, Zhu Tianshu finally moved Liu Ruzhi.

Compared to men, Liu Ruzhi is obviously easier to approach Oiran and protect her.

However, this will make the work of Dali Temple disappear for a while.

After the two reached an agreement, they went to rest.

It wasn't until the sun sunburned his buttocks for a reincarnation that Zhu Tianshu sat up from the bed.

It's not because he stayed up late and didn't get enough sleep to make up for it, with his current physical fitness, it's okay to stay up all night for a few days and nights.

He just wanted to get out of bed and get back some of the feelings he once liked.

"It's a pity that I don't have a mobile phone, otherwise I would have been able to watch jokes all day." Zhu Tianshu sighed a little disappointed.

No one in this world can understand what the "mobile phone" he said is, and these thoughts are the most precious memories for him.

"Maybe one day, I'll be able to create a mobile phone." He grinned.

After washing up, the time has come to the afternoon.

Today he was going to visit the seller of mercury.

There is only one company in Pingjiang County that can make mercury, the blacksmith shop on West Street, the manager is called Li Tie, and his ancestors have been striking iron for several generations, and the craftsmanship is passed down to him as easy and handy.

When Zhu Tianshu came, Li Tie was building a square iron bar.

It was already autumn, and the people of Pingjiang County had changed into velvet jackets, and Li Tie was still wearing a black sleeveless apron that remained unchanged all year round, and his arms were muscular, looking extremely strong.

His face is very friendly, loyal and honest, and he is recognized as a good man.

In addition to him, there was a little boy of seven or eight years old, sitting at the door and tinkering with an ant's nest, playing happily and laughing proudly from time to time.

"Master Zhu, why are you here? Gua Wazi, don't hurry up and move a clean stool out! Li Tie is simple, so that he evokes his naughty son.

"Don't go!" Xiao Li Tie didn't eat this set at all.

He laughed so badly that he pulled out a kettle out of nowhere, and made a gesture to pour boiling water into the ant's nest.

"What are you doing here?" Zhu Tianshu stepped forward, looked at the cheerful little Li Tie, and asked with a smile.

"My trick is called Water Man Jinshan, is it handsome, is it handsome, is it carved?" He flaunts the name he has taken, indulging in the power of his hypocrisy.

Zhu Tianshu glanced at him pitifully, and before he could pour boiling water into it, he said, "I don't think your trick is handsome at all, not carved at all, but a little sand sculpture." ”

The smile on Xiao Li Tie's face suddenly collapsed, and he put the small kettle in his hand on the ground, pursing the corners of his mouth and looking arrogant, like love.

"What nonsense are you talking about, my uncle said, you have to be ruthless, not only to others, but also to yourself!"

When Li Tie heard this, he touched his head and smiled embarrassedly, "Master Zhu, don't be surprised, the child's temperament, it's good when you grow up." ”

Zhu Tianshu looked at his honest smile, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, he was still waiting to grow up, and when he grew up, he would be wasted.

He found a stool that was not very clean from the side, patted the iron ash on it, and sat down, "That's true, but you didn't do it." ”

"The so-called ruthlessness to oneself is to have high standards and strict requirements for oneself, and strive to surpass others and make others unreachable!"

"Be ruthless to others, be ruthless to those who bully yourself, don't be cowardly, don't give in, be a person who stands up to the sky and has a backbone!"

"Which of the above do you think you aim the kettle at the ant nest?" He asked rhetorically.

Xiao Li Tie was stunned, a large amount of information poured into his head, and he couldn't think of the right words to refute Zhu Tianshu even if he wanted to break his scalp.

Zhu Tianshu glanced at him with disgust, "Being ruthless against an unarmed weak person is disrespectful to life and a crime!" What would you do if I pried your mouth open and filled you with a pot of boiling water? ”

He was about to get the small kettle on the ground, but Xiao Li Tie was so frightened that he cried out with a "wow", and ran into the blacksmith shop with a smoke.

Li Tie looked at Zhu Tianshu, and his humble face showed a rare seriousness, "Thank you Lord Zhu for your teachings." ”

"Children should be educated from an early age, and if their thinking is deviated, it will be difficult to correct it." Zhu Tianshu didn't want to say these words, but he couldn't help but say more.

"By the way, who is this kid's uncle?" He suddenly remembered something and asked Li Tiedao.

"I don't really know if my lord asks this." He scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I took my child to Luoshui County a few days ago to buy goods, left him by the carriage, and when I came back, I told me that I met an uncle, who was very powerful, I didn't care at the time, I thought he was bragging." ”

"What did he say?" Zhu Tianshu asked.

"He said that uncle is infinitely powerful, and a cart full of iron can be lifted with one hand, and my cart of iron is thousands of pounds, to say the least, how can there be such a person in the world." Li Tie said with a smile.

Zhu Tianshu thought for a while and said, "Did you find that there was less material on your car after you came back?" ”

"That's not true, there is nothing missing in iron," Li Tie thought for a moment, "but the cinnabar is missing half a barrel." ”

"Cinnabar?!" When Zhu Tianshu heard these two words, he almost didn't shout.

Less is cinnabar, that's right!

No wonder Liu Ruzhi said that he didn't find any clues when he looked for Li Tie, Li Tie made mercury, but he used it for medicinal purposes and sold it to the owner of the pharmacy, and the shopkeeper prescribed the right medicine, and the route of every medicinal material was recorded in the account book.

No matter how stupid the murderer is, he will not be stupid enough to blatantly trade with Li Tie.

So he took a step back and chose to make his own mercury, and the simplest way to make mercury was to burn cinnabar.

Although there is a risk of poisoning, the murderer is cautious and can completely avoid this.

It's just that although I figured out the origin of the murderer's mercury, I still don't know the identity of the murderer.

And judging from the murderer's behavior of taking human skin, he is likely to be extremely good at disguise, so obtaining the murderer's appearance characteristics from Xiao Li Tie is very likely to get inaccurate results, but it is easy to confuse judgment.

But it's not for nothing, at least he knows that the murderer has strong strength, and he is not a person who doesn't know martial arts.

Zhu Tianshu took out a piece of broken silver from his pocket, about two taels, "Buy a few books for the child to read, the kind that you want to bring exercises." ”

Li Tie was a little flattered and was about to kneel on the ground, but Zhu Tianshu hurriedly grabbed him.

"My lord, how can this be done!"

"Make, make! Everything is difficult at the beginning, you have solved a huge problem for me, and also let me take a crucial first step, which must be thanked! He forced the transaction, insisted on letting Li Tie accept it, and told him thousands of times, "You must take good care of the child, let him finish it on time and in quantity, the doll must be caught from a young age, and it will be really late if it is too late!" ”

"Okay, Master Zhu!" Li Tie had some tears in his eyes, and his heart was already full of gratitude for Zhu Tianshu's unscrupulous and people-friendly actions.

Zhu Tianshu waved his hand, which was a farewell.

He glanced meaningfully at the blacksmith shop, "Little Tiezi, I can only do it for you, and you can only say it yourself if you carve it or not." ”
