Chapter Seventy-Three: An Unsuitable Weapon
The fourth update
"I can't change my household registration, so I can only do this." Xin Kun smiled, "Grandpa, I like this, really, really being a girl, I'll go crazy." β
"However, I still hope you can be ordinary." The old man sighed.
"But I'm not willing to be ordinary, I have to do everything to be the best, just like this, I did it 10,000 times to succeed. Or don't you take money, isn't it a loss? Xin Kun took out a copper coin and tossed it in his hand.
"This one is perfect." The old man's eyes flashed, "Does he know this?" β
"No, I'm not going to give it to him yet, I'll talk about it later." Xin Kun thought for a moment, shook his head, and put the copper coin back into the purse he hung on his neck.
"You still owe him a weapon of four thousand taels?"
"yes, yes, but I don't want to hit him. He knows a little bit of any weapon, I don't want to give him a forbidden weapon, he showed me his sword skills yesterday, and it's not bad. So it's difficult to give him anything. Xin Kun frowned, these days she also wanted to fight a suitable weapon that could be made public to him, but in the end, nothing came out.
"Let's make an ordinary sword, right?" The old man frowned.
"Yes, too." Xin Kun nodded, and gave him an ordinary literati sword, which can usually be used as a faΓ§ade.
"Brother Kun, why didn't you wait for me?" A big head sticks in.
"We ...... Those who want to go into the city. Xin Kun was almost frightened, her mouth was open, but when she saw the city gate, she immediately smiled.
"Yes, yes, my cousin said you have to pass through here, so I'm waiting for you at the gates." He still looked elated.
"We're going to get some cars." Xin Kun prepares to get out of the car.
"What's it called, go to the county government to borrow a few cars, anyway, the farm is over." Guo Peng hurriedly looked back. The guards hurriedly rode out of the ranks, and before Xin Kun could say anything, they left.
"It's not practical, really, there are cars at the station." Xin Kun thought for a moment, frowned and said.
"My cousin's advantage is not taken advantage of."
"Little Lord." The old man is still not very accustomed to this little prince.
"Old man, don't be so polite. The county government is also the whole county, and it is right to help you! Guo Peng said it as a matter of course.
"Learn smart." Xin Kun nodded, he had learned to serve the people.
"Of course, the people of the Shenji Camp like me now!" Guo Peng said proudly.
"Great!" Xin Kun smiled, such a boy is not unpopular. It's just that she still thinks it's better to stay at home and play like such a fool. It's too dangerous to go out!
"Brother Kun, do you like horseback riding? I teach you. β
"No, I'm a scholar, I want to read." Xin Kun shook his head and nested back in the car. I grabbed a book.
"Brother Kun, let's ride a horse together, it's boring to read a book in a nest." Guo Peng still wanted to persuade her to come out.
"Learning makes me progress!" Xin Kun replied without thinking about it.
"Well, there aren't many people who read books smarter than you, then you!" Guo Peng was very easy-going and shrugged his shoulders.
"Master, the car is here."
"Uncle, let's get in the car, let's hurry and get to the capital in the evening." Guo Peng bowed his hand to everyone.
Everyone got into the car, and Guo Peng took the lead.
Xin Kundang didn't see it, he really pulled out a book.
The old man watched Xin Kun read, so he didn't speak, found a comfortable corner, closed his eyes and recuperated.
At noon, the old man did not take dry food, but found a small restaurant and ordered hot soup and hot dishes.
Guo Peng and they were naturally together, Guo Peng hurriedly sat on the side of Xin Kun, Xin Kun didn't eat very hard, what could the roadside restaurant have to eat, she drank the soup without a mouthful, dug a spoonful of wheat rice and soaked it in the soup and lowered her head to eat.
"Brother Kun, if you want to ride a horse with me, you won't be unable to eat."
"Forget it, what's the road, you teach me to ride a horse, it's a waste of time, wait until you get to the capital, find a chance to teach me!" Xin Kun said lightly.
"That's right!" Guo Peng thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense.
"Hurry up and eat, otherwise you won't be able to make it to the capital before dark." The old man said hurriedly.
"I'm done." Xin Kun poured the last few mouthfuls of soup into his mouth and slowly stood up. Guo Peng hurriedly ate the rest of the meal and quickly followed.
They still arrived outside the capital at night, the old man's Zhuangzi was outside the city, and Guo Peng couldn't go back, so he could only spend the night in the Zhuangzi.
Li Xiaoan and his wife are already in Zhuangzi, except to meet the old man, the main thing is to wait for them. Xin Kun's room was also ready, much better than the original one in Xinjia Village.
The old man was already tired, so he gave Li Xiaoan's husband Wu Bo a big red envelope and went back to rest. Xin Kun was also tired, and Guo Peng rode a horse for a day, and he even followed Xin Kun. It seemed that Xin Kun was much more tired than him.
"Your Zhuangzi is very good, it's not easy to buy such a Zhuangzi in the capital." Guo Peng is knowledgeable, he looked along the way, the city wall here is not far away, this kind of geographical location is not easy to find.
"I've been buying it for many years, and my grandfather bought it for my father, who doesn't like to be a blacksmith."
"But you are still blacksmiths in Jiangnan, and your father and mother are great blacksmiths. Famous. Guo Peng looked at her.
"yes, that's good." Xin Kun nodded, now he was not unhappy at all, and finally someone told her that the old man's son and daughter-in-law worked as a blacksmith in Jiangnan. And also a famous blacksmith! However, why did the ironsmith die a tragic death. But she didn't dare to ask, the death of two couples together is not that easy to happen in modern times. She thought it was a little strange before, the old man didn't ask anything else except how she lived, and at first, she was still very worried, for fear that the old man would ask about her parents, but the old man never said it. And now, she thinks the old man knows, so she doesn't ask.
"That's why you're so good at it!" Guo Peng smiled.
"I just dare to think about it." Xin Kun smiled, she couldn't ask anything because she couldn't know the cause of her parents' deaths, and she would be exposed as soon as she asked.
"Have you figured out what weapon you're going to give me?" Guo Peng didn't want to talk anymore when he saw her.
"I've discussed with my grandfather to give you an ordinary sword or knife. There are no patterns, nothing is there, and it will look quite simple on the surface. She was finally in the mood to speak.
"Got a mystery?"
"It's going to be made with new steel, it's also custom-made for you, and it's very uncomfortable for you to hold it. No matter the weight or whatever, it's not good anyway. β
"Let me experiment? If I can use even such an inappropriate sword, can I use all the swords? Guo Peng is really full of trust in Xin Kun.
"That's pretty much it." Xin Kun smiled, looked into Guo Peng's eyes, and thought for a moment, "When you finish killing the first person, come to me." β
"Why?" Guo Peng was puzzled, could he only come to him again after he had killed the first person, obviously they lived in the same city.
"Something!" Xin Kun smiled, yawned, and entered the house by himself.
