Chen Ping'an turned into a temporary apprentice in the blacksmith shop, according to Master Ruan, someone needs to replace Liu Xianyang's work, digging wells, building houses, and digging ditches, all need manpower, and he has no reason to feed that Uncle Liu in vain.

So Chen Ping'an became the busiest person in the shop, as long as he worked hard, the straw sandals boy really did not lose to any young man, between work, Chen Ping'an went to the house to visit Liu Xianyang, the tall boy who walked around from the ghost gate, I don't know if it was after escaping death, he still had palpitations, or was hurt by the punch of the moving ape, and became a little taciturn, sick, often lying on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze, except for Chen Ping'an to chat with him a few words, Liu Xianyang almost didn't talk to anyone, Chen Ping'an was helpless about it, fortunately, Liu Xianyang was seriously injured, but the healing speed of the chest wound, which is much faster than Chen Ping'an's left hand.

Ning Yao still lives in the house in Mud Bottle Lane, and the man she called Ruan Shi unexpectedly agreed to cast a sword for her, and what was even more unexpected was that Ruan Shi also said that this time the sword casting, if you are lucky, it will be baked in half a year, and if you are unlucky, you may not succeed if you wait for ten years. Ning Yao was very relieved about this, and said with a smile that his luck has never been bad, and he will wait for the first half of the year.

Although Ning Yao lives in Chen Ping'an's ancestral house every day, the medicine jars and other things have been moved to the shop, saving Chen Ping'an from running back and forth. Chen Ping'an lived in Liu Xianyang's house, mainly because he was afraid that the house would be burglarized. Chen Ping'an went to the creek to touch the stones in the middle of the night before, but in the end there was no harvest, even the deep pit on the back of the green cow could not touch the snake gallstone, in Ning Yao's words, it is the snake gallstone this thing, similar to people, you have to have spirit, no, it is the ordinary rich and noble court's Qing offering elegant play, and it can only be used as an inkstone, but with spirit, it is similar to a person wearing a dragon robe, the gap between the two, a heaven and a place.

This made Chen Ping'an sigh every time he walked by the stream.

Ning Yao brought Chen Ping'an back with a string of old keys, saying that someone had lost them in the yard, and then she tried it, and sure enough, it was the key to Song Jixin's house next door, from the courtyard door to the house door to the door, all of them could be opened. Chen Ping'an couldn't guess what Song Jixin wanted to do, and it stands to reason that with his kind of lavish style, he shouldn't have thought of letting himself help clean the house, after all, with Song Jixin's temper, it is estimated that the house has collapsed, and he is not willing to let outsiders enter his family's territory.

Chen Ping'an knows Song Jixin better than anyone else.

Song Jixin is a very generous person, whether it is for himself, even if it is to spend money on the childish maid Gui, he dares to smash them all out if he has ten copper coins in his pocket. At the same time, Song Jixin is also a stingy person, as long as it is something he wants to monopolize, he is not willing to give anything to him, in short, Song Jixin wants to give something to whom, throwing a lot of money, it is also a drizzle, but what others take the initiative to ask him, he will not be happy. is in a good mood and is willing to put the icing on the cake to whom, but no matter whether the mood is good or bad, Song Jixin will not be in the snow.

Or was it the key that Ji-kyu deliberately threw to his house?

Chen Ping'an felt that it was unlikely.

During this period, when Chen Ping'an heard Ning Yao say that she took the key to open the door, he was a little dumbfounded and stopped talking.

So Ning Yao narrowed her eyes, her long narrow eyebrows were particularly domineering. She just stared at Chen Ping'an.

At that time, Ruan Xiu watched this scene in a daze not far away, secretly eating the broken mouth food that Chen Ping'an helped buy from the town.

In the end, Ning Yao took the lead in turning around and leaving, that day she didn't let Chen Ping'an decoct the medicine, she went to the open space behind the blacksmith shop with a clay pot, and she was busy for a long time. The girl in Tsing Yi with a ponytail passed by from afar, munching on melon seeds as she walked, relishing it.

Ning Yao squatted on the ground, staring at the jar of medicinal herbs viciously, feeling that this was much more difficult than practicing swords and swords, the girl's face was full of indignation, there are things in the world that I Ning Yao can't do well?

Chen Ping'an silently walked to her side and helped her re-decoction the medicine, and his movements were skillful.

Ning Yao's lips moved slightly, but he still didn't stop it, but just wiped his face when Chen Ping'an wasn't paying attention.

The boy crouched beside the medicine jar, staring at the fire carefully, his hands folded on his knees, his chin resting on his arms.

Ning Yao snorted coldly, "If you want to laugh, laugh!"

Chen Ping'an didn't laugh at her, still staring at the gently swaying cyan flames, and whispered: "It's not that you think Miss Ning will do anything bad, it's just that the key is someone else's after all, no matter why it falls in our yard, it's not easy to take it to open the door." Even if Song Jixin and Zhigui don't go back to the town in their lives, the yard next door is still his house after all, and we are all outsiders. ”

Ning Yao pouted, "Rotten good people, brainless, poor and exquisite, chattering!"

Chen Ping'an and Ning Yao turned their heads almost at the same time and saw a young man, with a slender figure and an elegant temperament, who looked like a foreigner and a scholar.

Chen Ping'an found that the way this person looked at him was very strange, neither like Zhengyang Mountain Moving Ape and Old Dragon City Fu Nanhua, who were so arrogant and superior, nor like Lu Daochang and Miss Ning. The young man's gaze was very complex and contradictory, there seemed to be pity, appreciation, and a hint of disgust.

The young man chose to leave in silence.

Ning Yao frowned and said, "At first glance, it's coming for you, what's the matter?"

Chen Ping'an was also puzzled, shook his head and said, "I don't understand." ”

After being interrupted by that inexplicable foreigner, between the young man and the girl, the anger that was not even a barrier quickly disappeared.

It's just that the person quickly went and returned, and there was a young woman with extremely long legs by his side, and for some reason Ruan Xiu.

Ruan Xiu opened her mouth to explain: "They can't speak the town's dialect, so let me help." Chen Ping'an, this sister is the one who saved Liu Xianyang, her surname is Chen like you, but it is not our Dongbao Aquarius clan, the person next to Sister Chen is the eldest grandson of the Chen family in Longwei County, and her surname is Chen Songfeng. Listening to Sister Chen, Chen Songfeng seems to be a distant relative of you, the Chen family, hundreds of years ago, as for Sister Chen, it has nothing to do with you even if you push it up for one or two thousand years. This time, Sister Chen came to worship her ancestors, but here in the town, from the Supervision and Construction Office to the big families in Taoye Lane, Fulu Street, no one knows where the graves of their ancestors are, Liu Xianyang talked about you, saying that you are now the person who is most familiar with the surrounding mountains and rivers in the town, and it is right to look for you. Sister Chen said that if you can help, she can pay a bag, a bag of gold and copper coins, I think you can agree......"

When she said this, the girl in Tsing Yi secretly put her fingers together and shook it on her waist, in addition, her mouth shape was also "two bags".

Ruan Xiuming wanted to remind Chen Ping'an that although the lion opened his mouth, otherwise there would be no store in this village.

After thinking about it carefully, Chen Ping'an said with a smile: "I think of a place, it may be the place she wants to find." As for the reward, it's just a matter of walking a few steps. ”

Ruan Xiu was a little anxious.

Ning Yao had already taken a step forward, and said in the orthodox dialect of Dongbao Aquarius: "It's no problem to let Chen Ping'an take you to the grave to worship your ancestors, but you have to take out two bags of gold and copper coins, there is no need to negotiate! He is very seriously injured at this time, and it is not easy to travel long distances, and you also know that now that Mr. Qi has asked people to leave the town quickly, Chen Ping'an is just an ordinary man, but he must hurry up, a bag of money is not enough." ”

Chen Pair and Chen Songfeng actually saw the girl for the first time, and their eyes lit up.

See the vulgar.

For example, in the barren rice field, I saw a Zhilan, slim and elegant.

Chen looked at the girl in front of him in front of him, wearing a green robe and a hanging sword and sword, which was pleasing to the eye. Chen Zheng's dull mood also improved a little, and he smiled: "As long as you can find my ancestral grave, you will have two bags of money." But if you can't find it, I won't give you a bag, how about it?"

Ning Yao said in a deep voice: "A word is a certainty!"

From beginning to end, it seems that there is nothing Chen Ping'an.

Ning Yao stared at Chen Ping'an, his eyes were full of "Don't talk to me, otherwise I will really cut people".

Chen Ping'an held back a smile, thought about it seriously, and said to Ruan Xiu: "Please tell them, I want to help Miss Ning decoct the medicine first, it will take about two quarters of an hour, and then I will talk to Liu Xianyang, and finally I want Miss Ruan to help me tell Master Ruan, what I left on hand today will definitely be made up tomorrow." ”

After hearing that there was no way to move immediately, Chen looked a little displeased, and she looked at this young man in straw shoes who didn't know what to do, and her face was cloudy.

Chen Ping'an did not hesitate to retreat.

Ning Yao even clasped his hands around his chest, smiling indifferently.

Chen Xiang endured the unhappiness in his heart, silently recited a sentence that the overall situation is important, and smiled at Ruan Xiu: "Xiuxiu, tell him, we will wait for him on the side of the covered bridge, at most half an hour, if you can't see anyone by then, let this guy bear the consequences." ”

Ruan Xiu hummed nonchalantly.

Chen Pair and Chen Songfeng left together.

Ruan Xiu smiled: "I'll go talk to my father." ”

After Chen Ping'an finished decocting Ning Yao's medicine, he went to find Liu Xianyang.

In the room with a strong smell of medicine, Liu Xianyang, who was lying on the bed, heard the footsteps, turned his head and saw that his face was still not ruddy, but it was much better than the previous whiteness.

Liu Xianyang squeezed out a smiling face and said hoarsely: "Did the woman who called Chen find you?"

Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "I'll take them into the mountain later." ”

Liu Xianyang thought for a while, "I will leave with her and go to a place that is said to be bigger than our Dongbao Aquarius." ”

In fact, Chen Zheng had looked for Liu Xianyang once before, but after that, Liu Xianyang was not very interested, and he didn't want to talk to Chen Ping'an about what she said.

Liu Xianyang tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Actually, I don't even know what Dongbao Aquarius is." ”

Chen Ping'an bent down to help him straighten the futon, and said with a smile: "Do you think I know?"

Liu Xianyang rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you know what I'm most worried about?"

Chen Ping'an shook his head.

Liu Xianyang turned his head to look at the roof again, "Here, you can help me get out of bed, and then grit my teeth and solve it yourself, after leaving the town, what should I do if I and pee along the way?" Do you want me to tell them, hey, who of you, come and give me a hand?"

Chen Ping'an sat on the stool and could only scratch his head.

Liu Xianyang suddenly laughed, "It's just that I think about it again, I've even died, and I'm still afraid of this?"

Chen Ping'an said: "The days are getting better and better after all, don't worry, didn't Old Man Yao say that if you don't die, there will be blessings in the future." ”

When it came to Old Man Yao, Liu Xianyang was a little sentimental: "Old Man Yao has never said a few good words in his life, sad words, bad words, and scolding words, but there are baskets and baskets." ”

Ning Yao stood outside the door, and she didn't speak.

Chen Ping'an helped Liu Xianyang cover the quilt again, got up and said, "I'm going to take them into the mountain, you have a good rest." ”

Liu Xianyang nodded, "Remember to be careful." ”

Chen Ping'an walked out of the house gently, Ning Yao walked side by side with him, Chen Ping'an asked curiously, "You also want to go up the mountain?"

Ning Yao frowned and said, "I can't believe those two surnamed Chen." ”

Chen Ping'an nodded and said, "That's right, it's always right to be careful." ”

The two walked briskly by the stream, and Ning Yao said, "The outsiders over there in the town have walked a lot. ”

The spring thunder shook, and the stinging insects fled in shock.

Two groups of people met at the southern end of the covered bridge.

In addition to Ning Yao and Liu Baqiao, the sword cultivator of Fenglei Garden, who came to join in the fun, the other three, Chen Pair of other continents, Chen Songfeng of Longwei County of Benzhou, and Chen Ping'an of Mud Bottle Lane in the town.
