Perhaps because it has been uninhabited for a long time, there is always a faint decay in this empty house. Before, it was because of the strong aroma of wine at the door that it was hidden, but now that Hei Xiaohua pushed open the door and the aroma of wine quickly dissipated, it was finally exposed.

It was getting late, and in order to hurry up, Hei Xiaohua also increased the speed in her hands, and made a small room dusty.

Although he finally cleaned it up, he was also choked, so he could only cover his mouth and nose and push open the window.

The afterglow of the setting sun unceremoniously broke in, illuminating every piece of dust, coherently like a milky way...

When the dust fell, the black flower that came back to her senses also felt a slight coolness. Just as he closed the window and was about to continue cleaning up, he kicked something soft under his feet, and his bones slid under the bed.

Hei Xiaohua was curious, so she was ready to lie down and find out. But as soon as he bent over, he heard a cracking sound on his waist, and there was an ouch in his mouth, and the secret was bad.

In order to practice boxing, he specially tied his pants tightly, and then he forgot about it under various influences, and now under his bent waist, this slender rope can no longer be supported, and it is completely broken.

Hei Xiaohua really didn't want to leave the situation in front of him, but in order to avoid embarrassment, he could only lift his trouser waist, and he really couldn't get rid of his hands, and he was anxious to turn around the house for a while.

The original rope naturally could no longer be used, so Hei Xiaohua wanted to see if there were any substitutes in this black room.

Although the room in the black room is not small, in fact, there are not too many things, except for daily necessities are some paper and pencils, but these things have been torn and broken and thrown to the ground, or they were swept aside when they were just tidied up.

Hei Xiaohua was still having a headache, but when her eyes looked at this pile of clutter, her eyes lit up, and she took out an object from it and shook it, and then nodded with satisfaction.

What was in Hei Xiaohua's hand at this time was a finger-thick hemp rope, and he didn't care about it when he cleaned up the pieces of the wine jar just now, and directly threw it aside. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the rope of this wine jar became his trouser belt.

Hei Xiaohua wrapped it around her waist, and found that the rope was much stronger than the previous rope, so she continued to lean down and stretch her arms under the bed.

Although he had short arms and legs, fortunately the thing was not kicked far by himself, and he grabbed it in his hand with a casual touch, and then stood up with his arm shrunk.

"Huh, what is this?" Before Hei Xiaohua could look at the things in her hand, she saw a crumpled piece of paper slowly fall to the ground, and it seemed that she should have been brought out from under the bed by herself.

"It says... Nine materials?" Hei Xiaohua pointed at the word "dye" on the paper with his finger, although he didn't know much, but his attitude was very serious: "This kind of black nine materials can make the item color for a long time, and it is not easy to fade... It doesn't contain any harmful ingredients... Safe and no side effects... It can be used for nine hairs, nine clothes... Makes people younger... Oops, you can't pronounce this word, can you?"

Hei Xiaohua read it intermittently, and only after reading it did she suddenly realize the original name of this thing, and couldn't help muttering to herself: "Why does Brother Hei Yi use this kind of thing, is he... Is it less white?"

But he only thought about this kind of thing, and casually crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it aside, looking at what he was holding under his arm.

The thing in front of me was a palm-sized sachet embroidered with a large black bird, although the big black bird was pitch black, but only the left wing was golden.

"This should be Big Brother Black's stuff, right? I'd better help keep it... I just don't know how Brother Hei is doing now?" Although Hei Xiaohua was strange, he couldn't figure out why he came, so he could only pick it up.

Sweeping away the debris on the ground, Hei Xiaohua glanced back at the empty room again, then packed up her tools and turned to leave.

...

Although the uncle didn't tell the time yesterday, Hei Xiaohua had nothing to do, so she rushed over early in the morning.

But as soon as he entered the courtyard, the things in his hands fell to the ground. I saw that the original position of the wooden stake had been replaced with an iron stake at some point, and it was several times thicker than the previous stake.

"It's... What's going on?"

"Well, it's early—" The man looked listless, as if he hadn't woken up yet.

"Uncle... This... What's going on?" Hei Xiaohua asked hurriedly.

"Although I can no longer use the 'Ten Jiao to Go to Sea', I can't let this exercise be buried in vain... I heard that you promised people yesterday, but you have no support, I wonder if you can see my crippled trick?" the man smiled faintly.

Although this person said it easily, it was like a thunderbolt in Hei Xiaohua's ears! His body trembled, and he said excitedly: "Uncle... Are you going to teach me... This 'Ten Jiao goes to sea'?"

"What do you say?" the man narrowed his eyes.

"So how am I going to... Can I worship you as a teacher?" Although Hei Xiaohua had never been exposed to this kind of thing, she also knew that the matter of apprenticeship was not trivial, and she was extremely rigorous, and asked cautiously.

"This kind of exercise is supposed to be a bloodline inheritance... If you want to, you'll be exempted! Call me my father-in-law. The man's tone was still relaxed, but there was a warmth in his eyes... If his child hadn't died, it would have been about the same size as this little black flower.

"Father-in-law!" Hei Xiaohua didn't have any relatives, and when she saw that this person wanted to teach her own unique exercises, she was naturally very grateful, and she knelt down without hesitation.

"Haha! Okay! Wu'er, get up quickly!" The man heard the word "father-in-law", his muscles tensed, but his expression relaxed, he quickly asked Hei Xiaohua to stand up, as if he had met him for the first time, and looked at him carefully.

But as if the upper eyes were not enough, I saw him raise his arm and knock Hei Xiaohua's body up and down, but the latter honestly didn't dare to move.

"My son, are you ready for what my father told you yesterday?" the man calmed down, and looked around for a week, but he didn't see what he wanted.

"Father-in-law, wait a minute, it's just outside the door!" Hearing this, Hei Xiaohua hurriedly turned around and turned back, and then heard the sound of bone rubbing, and saw Hei Xiaohua rolling a wooden barrel that was not much smaller than the gate and walked over.

"Father-in-law, is this barrel big enough?" said Hei Xiaohua, wiping her sweat and panting. The barrel was the big vat in their courtyard, and it took him a lot of effort to remove it from the shelf.

"Alas..."The man felt a headache, and said angrily and funny, "Silly boy, you use it to fetch me a bucket of water?"

“...”

"Father-in-law, the water is ready..."

Although the big barrel is not easy to find, the ordinary small barrel is available, and after a while, Hei Xiaohua took a wooden barrel and put it in front of this person.

"Well, you go to my house and get the things on the table. ”

"Father-in-law, what do you want?" said the voice of the black flower, which came from the room.

"Nonsense! Or else there's something else on the table?"

"And your shoes..."

"Uh... Take it too—" The man looked down and realized that he had been standing barefoot, no wonder he always felt a little chilly.

The man put on his shoes, poured the dead grass into the barrel, then took a gray-white bottle from his bosom and put it to his mouth, bit off the cork, and threw the bottle into the barrel.

I saw that the originally calm water suddenly bubbled, and then the bottle floating on the surface of the water slowly melted into the water.

"It's almost time... Take off your clothes and soak your arms in—" The man picked up a stick and stirred the barrel, then said to the black flower.

"Oh..."The black flower watched the gray bottle disappear, it was as magical as a trick, and she also stretched her arms into the barrel with a puzzled expression.

"Shhh

"Patience!" the man's voice was sharp, and he directly pressed the back of Hei Xiaohua, pressing his whole body on top of the barrel.

"Father-in-law... My hands hurt so much..."After all, Hei Xiaohua is young, and she is already full of tears at this time.

"For my father to know," the man sighed helplessly, "but it's also for your own good, if you really want to fulfill your promise, you must survive this..."

"I... I'm in so much pain..."Hei Xiaohua already cried in her voice, but she was forced to endure the severe pain, and finally fainted with black eyes.

...

I don't know how long it took, Hei Xiaohua only felt a surge in her stomach, and her mouth was extremely spicy, and she choked out a lot of tears. He tried to get up and get up, but in the end he was empty and planted on the ground.

"Ahem, ahem... I... Where's my arm?Father-in-law!Why can't I feel my arm?Is my arm gone?" Hei Xiaohua also woke up from such a fall, and felt the abnormality on his body, his face turned pale, and he screamed in a lost voice.

After this scream, I heard a crackling sound outside, and a figure broke in with a nervous face.

"It's okay, it's okay, nothing serious... I woke up in less than an hour..."Seeing that Hei Xiaohua was not unexpected, this man muttered to himself, and then scolded sharply: "What are you yelling about? as if I had you? Hurry up and stand up for me..."

"Oh... Is my arm really still there? Father, what happened to me? and... What the hell is going on with that bucket of water?" Hei Xiaohua was also obedient, and wasted a lot of strength to stand up. However, although the two arms could barely be raised, they could only move slightly.

This person took advantage of Hei Xiaohua to look down at his arms, quietly rubbed back a few steps and kicked the chili pepper that fell behind him into the stove next to him, and then sat down at the table with an embarrassed face.

"Ahem... Anyway, you'll have to know sooner or later, so I'll take advantage of your recovery time to explain it to you..."
