Chapter 44: The King of Moving Bricks
Although he had only slept for almost two hours, Pan Long's spirit had fully recovered.
A master like him, under normal circumstances, even if he doesn't sleep for five or six days in a row, there is no problem. He was asleep before, mainly because he was tired.
He told the children a story, and performed the art of making silver coins with his bare hands, using a silver ingot to each of them as a silver coin, plus a bag of candy, and watching the children cheer and leave, he couldn't help but smile.
"If it's on the Central Plains side, it's even more lively now. Father Pan Lei came over and said with a smile, "During the Chinese New Year over there, there were two or three hundred people surnamed Pan, old and young, plus some people who lived in Panjiabao...... Like you, a wave of kids will tell a story once, and this morning will be spent on storytelling. ”
"That's not a bad thing. Pan Long said with a smile, "The family is lively and full of New Year's flavor." ”
"If you're interested, wait until tomorrow...... No, the year after tomorrow, let's go to the Central Plains for the New Year. Pan Lei said expressionlessly, "When the time comes, you wait for everyone to meet and ask, 'Young Master, when are you going to start a family'." ”
Pan Long imagined that scene for a while, and suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, and hurriedly said: "Then I'd better wait until I get married and have children, and then pass the New Year." ”
Pan Lei smiled: "It's good to understand, I suffered a loss back then, you must not repeat the mistakes of the past." ”
Pan Long looked around in embarrassment, and hurriedly found a topic: "By the way, Dad, after I went to bed yesterday, did anything happen in the second half of the night?"
"Nothing, it's too peaceful. Old Han Tianliang went around again before dawn to make sure that there was no danger. Pan Lei said, "Now Yuan Zhencheng and the others have collected all the blood shed by that giant, and plan to use this blood to make some magic weapons and distribute them to various towns in the Northland." ”
"To drive away monsters?"
"Hmm. In the future, every time the year passes, I will use the formation to stimulate the breath of the giants contained in these magic weapons, and the effect should be similar to this time. Although they are consumables, with these magic weapons, they should be able to protect the towns of the Northland for at least a year of peace and stability. ”
"If only I had known that I would fight the cyclops a few more tricks to make it bleed a little more. ”
Pan Lei laughed and stretched out his hand to crumple his son's hair into a mess: "Don't think nonsense! Fighting is a very serious matter, no matter what goals you have or what interests you have, since you have done it, there is only one thing to do - do your best to win!"
"Aaron, you did a great job last night, I'm very happy. That's fine, don't put a heavier burden on your back. ”
"As the saying goes, those who can work harder. ”
"You can't get home from school. The sages said, 'The wise man is worried, the capable man works hard, but the foolish man has nothing to worry about, so he can keep his life and get his life.' There are many evil, foolish and virtuous people in the world, but they don't know that the virtuous and capable people are still killing themselves. '-Your father and I have taken the exam seriously, don't drop the book bag with me, you are still far away!"
Pan Lei scolded with a smile, and his expression became serious: "The fate of the Northland people should be borne by all the Northland people. If anyone is stronger because he is stronger, he must shoulder everyone's responsibilities, then such a northern land might as well perish!"
Seeing that his father was so serious, Pan Long didn't say anything anymore. He smiled, brushed the subject up, and asked if there was anything to see this year.
"If you want to see the excitement, let's go to breakfast first. Had breakfast and slept again. The New Year for us Northlanders officially begins in the afternoon. Wait until the evening, and then there will be liveliness. ”
"I'm in good spirits right now and can't sleep. ”
"Then go to the North City Gate to help, you have so much strength, it's not bad to carry stones. ”
Pan Long came to the north gate according to his words, and sure enough, he saw that many people were busy repairing the city gate building.
The battle last night caused serious damage to the area around the north city gate, not to mention the city gate basically collapsed completely, and the nearby city wall also collapsed for a long time.
Naturally, these need to be repaired, and the walls and various defensive buildings in the north are all built of solid stones, and there can be no cutting corners.
Of course, the square stone is not naturally generated, and needs to be mined and polished manually. The people of Beidi will always go to mine stone in the spare time to prepare for construction, so there is no shortage of stone in Dingfeng Town.
But to take 300 pounds of stone to build the wall, but it is a hard work.
Only martial arts masters can only rely on the strength of their bodies to lift those heavy stones one by one, brush them with a layer of special mud, and then stack them on a staggered basis to build a solid city wall.
Pan Long saw a lot of familiar faces, such as Han Feng, this guy took off his shirt and was shirtless, and he was transporting stones.
For various reasons, Han Feng's figure and appearance are still fifteen years old. Usually he is naturally very good-looking, but now, standing in the middle of a group of big men who are also shirtless, he looks a little pitiful.
Even if his strength is not weak, and he can carry a heavy stone and walk like a fly, it can't change the fact that he looks weak.
Seeing Pan Long appear, Han Feng happily waved to him and shouted, "Brother Long, you worked hard last night, why don't you sleep for a while?"
"I've slept enough, I'm idle, I'm idle, come and help. Pan Long also took off his shirt as he spoke, and walked to the place where the stones were stacked like those familiar neighbors and villagers, but he did not grab the stones and carry them on his shoulders like Han Feng, but directly used the imitation of the Book of Mountains and Seas to collect hundreds of stones in one go.
In the surprised eyes of everyone, he came to the place where the wall was being built after being cleaned up, lifted a large mud bucket, and with a wave of his hand, the special cold-proof mud paste was evenly brushed on the stones in front of him, and then with a lift of his hand, a piece of stone appeared out of thin air, put down steadily, and closed tightly.
Brushing mud and laying stones, he repeated this action at a rapid pace.
As a result, a city wall slowly grew taller at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after about half an hour, Pan Long habitually stretched out his hand, only to find that the stones in the imitation of the Classic of Mountains and Seas had been used up.
Looking ahead, the north gate and the city walls on the left and right sides have been built almost a man high.
"Oh my God, Brother Long, if you go to be a mason, you can top several teams by yourself!" Han Feng was already stupid, and when he saw him come back to get a stone, he couldn't help but say, "You go to the rivers and lakes, it's really a waste of talent! If you stay in the north to build a city, I think you can build a city in a year alone!"
Pan Long rolled his eyes.
I have suffered so much, I have had so many adventures, I have practiced this skill, and I have accumulated so many treasures, but in the opinion of this kid, my most suitable job is to be a construction worker and be a king of moving bricks?
Han Feng, this guy, even if he dies and lives again, even if he wants to be a father, he is still a stupid dog!
