Chapter 256: Almost Becoming a God
The group followed Li Kui up the gentle slope covered with wild grass, and it didn't take long for them to see the hole in the wall of Baizhang Village, and now the gate is long gone, leaving a black doorway, still hidden in the shrubs and wild grass.
No wonder Han Dahu searched for a long time, but he didn't find it.
Of course, this can't be blamed on Han Dahu and others for not finding the way. The third uncle set fire to the village. He wanted to go down the mountain, and if he didn't succeed, he would become a benevolent. Giving up the village that had sheltered the Li clan for more than 200 years, he moved down from the mountains and moved to the current Lijiazhuang.
In fact, Han Dahu and a group of people have been wandering around and going around in circles, but they just haven't found the village.
Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, there is an abandoned earthen wall, a fire with ashes that has been cold, and a sloping roof built on the earthen wall, which is covered with dead branches and leaves. This is Li Kui's residence back in the village, it is not necessarily easy to shelter from the wind and rain, not to mention that it is already autumn, and the weather is getting colder, which makes Han Dahu worried: "Brother Xian, this is too simple?" ”
"That's not bad, I didn't have such preparations in the mountains before."
Li Kui sat down on the edge of the fire pond carelessly, stirred with the ashes, then took out the fire fold and lit the dead branches, fetched water from the well, and put it in the pot to boil tea. The curling smoke and the faint aroma of tea are very interesting.
Li Kui's attention gradually focused on the three-pointed two-edged gun brought by Han Dahu, this weapon arose in this dynasty, and it was lethal, but the requirements for the user were not too high. Can play with knives, make guns, can play around, only one is not good, it takes a lot of effort to build, and most of them are limited to the Great Song Dynasty material, there are many problems, especially the tip of the gun is easy to break, and the broken three-pointed two-edged knife is simply an ugly waste.
"Don't worry, Brother Xian, it will definitely be strong."
The weapons built by Han Dahu are absolutely refined in terms of materials. The purple gold hammer he built, with ten refining copper, is already five or six times more valuable than ordinary copper, and even gold and silver will be added, giving people the luxury of a work of art.
This is still when his net worth was only a rich man, and he was limited to the lack of money and goods in his hands, so he didn't dare to use all the good things.
Now, Han Dahu has a net worth of 100,000 yuan, and he will not be as powerless as before when he builds weapons.
Li Kui is absolutely assured of the quality of the weapons built by Han Dahu, this is the master who is willing to build weapons with all his family, and the quality of the weapons is absolutely first-class, but this name?
"Brother Han, can't you change the name on this gun?"
"It's not easy to change."
Han Dahu came closer, looked at the words engraved on the gun, and after comparing for a while, he found that he couldn't change a word, so he could only sigh and say: "If you really don't like it, just file the words, right?" blamed my brother for not being able to read and ink, which made the virtuous brother smile. ”
Han Dahu was quite a pity, looking at Li Kui with expectant eyes, he said so on his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart. Pouting, he secretly pointed to the two small characters on the side of the 'Three-Pointed and Two-Edged Divine Peak' and said, "Please also ask Brother Xian's subordinates to be merciful, okay to leave these two words?" ”
After speaking, wait for Li Kui's reaction.
Li Kui approached the fire and saw two words, clumsy. There is also a number at the back, two.
Puzzled, he looked up at Han Dahu and asked, "Brother, ...... this?" ”
"Let the virtuous brother laugh, this is my brother's bandit." Han Dahu said humbly, although he claimed to be a clumsy craftsman, he had a heart to challenge the world's famous craftsmen in his heart. Han Dahu's expression gradually changed, from guan'er to affectionate, and finally he was as dignified as a lonely: "I am obsessed with cheap business for my brother, and I am afraid that my life will be wasted." It is impossible to be an official, and being an inspector makes everyone tremble, afraid of bearing the emperor's grace, but the craftsmanship is still a little experienced. Most of this life has passed away, and only the weapon created here can give his brother a name......"
Speaking of this, Han Dahu stroked the blade with an expression, as if he had seen the last side of the woman he loved, which made Li Kui feel a little funny. The rough and emotional appearance always makes people want to laugh.
Subsequently, Han Dahu said again: "The Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick has become famous, and these three-pointed and two-edged blades all rely on their brothers to become famous all over the world." ”
But Han Dahu shook his head again, and said to himself: "It's a pity that the virtuous brother is a scholar, and he will also be a civil official in the future, so I'm afraid this weapon is really useless." It's a pity ......."
Unexpectedly, Han Dahu was a rough man, but he had an eternal craftsman's heart, and Li Kui immediately said that within three years, he would definitely make this thing famous all over the world.
This was originally a thoughtful word of relief, but Han Dahu was taken aback, Li Kui wouldn't want to be a civil official, and he would do it if he didn't like it, right?
If this is really the case, will the Manchu civil and military forces in the court still have a way to live? And the weapon he built has not become a murder weapon?
Han Dahu was worried and didn't want to send it.
Give it to Li Kui, a good battlefield soldier, it is likely to become Li Kui's murder weapon to provoke trouble, how can he, who is a brother and a brother-in-law with a high probability of being a brother-in-law in the future, watch Li Kui step by step on a road of no return?
But Li Kui didn't care, the next 20 years were destined to be eventful for the Great Song Dynasty. Practicing martial arts, even if you can't serve the country, you can protect your family, there's nothing wrong with it.
Da Song has no hope for a few years.
Li Kui didn't know it before, but he knew that the Great Song Dynasty had a faint monarch and traitorous ministers, and destroyed a prosperous world alive.
But I have only recently come back to the taste that the Great Song Dynasty planted the root of the curse in the Shenzong period, and even this bane can be traced back to the Qingli New Deal in the Renzong period. Fan Zhongyan's New Deal and New Party are all benevolent gentlemen, even if they were framed and finally ruined by the New Deal, they never thought of retaliating by abnormal means.
But in the Shenzong period, it was different, Wang Anshi's political ability to govern may be greater than Fan Zhongyan, but in terms of employing people, it is really not as good as Fan Zhongyan.
If the character is not good, Fan Zhongyan will not take a look at it at all, let alone appoint him as an official. As a result, even if there is a lot of dissatisfaction with the Qingli New Deal in the court, after the failure of the new policy, it will not cause opposition in the court. But Xining's change is different, when Wang Anshi is faced with no one available, he only looks at ability and not character, which has led to Xining's change of law It has been almost 20 years, but now the court is already incompatible.
And this kind of confrontation will always turn into basically no one in the court who dares to speak the truth.
If this continues, it is impossible to say that the Great Song Dynasty will not die.
If it weren't for the uselessness of the Liao Kingdom, maybe there would be hope for unifying the north and south of the river.
It's a pity that no matter whether it is the arguments above these temples or the standing in line, there is nothing Li Kui does.
Even if he passes the provincial test next year, that is, in the spring of the ninth year of Yuanyou, and even carries the title of the palace test gold list, he is just a new jinshi who is not in the stream, and it is likely that because of his ranking...... It's not very good, and he can only be awarded a petty official of the ninth grade. The top three in the palace examination can be directly awarded officials, and if you are the champion, you will even be a six-grade official. It's a pity that he knows his own affairs, and the top three may not have anything to do with him, and the second list is also mysterious.
If he really teaches a scholar, professor, or something like a nine-rank sesame official, when will he be the prime minister and consul?
Who can listen to him?
Even after more than ten years of ups and downs in officialdom, maybe more, twenty years, I didn't even have the opportunity to participate in the early dynasty.
Thinking about this, Li Kui was a little depressed, full of ambition, and couldn't show his grievances.
However, this is the trouble that Li Kui is most likely to encounter, and in the end, he has to use force to protect himself. He decided that once he was admitted to the Jinshi, he would be an official for a few years to see how the official fortune was, and if it didn't help, he would simply become a farmer, use the money earned from business, raise seven or eight thousand people, learn from Nazhujiazhuang, and protect himself. You can even bully the unsightly goods around you.
This is also the reason why Li Kui wants to practice martial arts, and another reason is that the axe is too low-level, and he just stands on the ground on weekdays, anyway, his two long legs are not slow to run. But riding a horse suffered, if the horse fight really started, other people's big iron guns, machetes turned on his head, he carried two ghost king axes in his hands, poked people's waists and eyes out of reach, can only stare dryly, think about it, it's annoying.
A good man, he was bullied into a turtle in vain, can he bear it?
Therefore, he wants to give himself a long weapon, but he can't suffer in size, he can't afford to lose this person.
Han Dahu's subordinates were ready to go to the mountains and forests to catch a few game, but after it was completely dark, they all came back empty-handed.
Seeing this, Li Kui laughed: "Tomorrow I will catch two yellow sheep for you and open the meat." ”
Everyone looked incredulous, nibbled on dry food, drank hot tea, and finally coped with the past night.
Following.
As soon as it was dawn, Han Dahu woke up slowly, only to find that the leader of the warriors under him was pushing him, with a nervous face: "Master, the second master is gone." ”
"Didn't he say to catch the sheep?" Han Dahu shook his body, deeply feeling the cold of the early morning in the mountains, only then did he see the suspicion in the eyes of his subordinates, and said with a smile: "He said that the tiger in the mountain would be caught, do you think the two yellow sheep can be him?" ”
"But ......"
"You can't catch up with my brother's ability, and you can't think of it." Han Dahu thought of Linyi City more than two years ago, Li Kui jumped down from the roof like a god, two door panels, and overturned the imperial city of Sifanzi, in his opinion, in this world, as long as Li Kui thinks, there is nothing he can't do.
It's just that several of his subordinates can't see the market, and they also put other people's skills on themselves.
Can it be compared?
When the sun came out, the fog in the mountains gradually dissipated, and Li Kui didn't know where he suddenly got in front of the group, carrying a ram on his back and a sheep under his arm.
Han Dahu jumped up from the ground and greeted him: "Brother Xian, good means!" ”
"There was no one to live in for two years, and there were a lot more prey." After Li Kui finished speaking, he killed the sheep and cut the meat, and then the abandoned Baizhang Village wafted out bursts of meat fragrance. After eating, Li Kui sent Han Dahu and the others out of the village.
On the way back, Li Kui passed by a small lake, held a three-pointed and two-edged divine blade on the back of his hand with one hand, raised his eyebrows at his own reflection in the lake, and muttered: "It's really evil!" Holding this thing, I always feel like I'm the god of Erlang, but I don't feel like anything? ”
Suddenly, he laughed happily again: "It seems that there is a black dog!" ”
He would never say that his appearance is inferior to Erlang God, anyway, in his opinion, a person with three eyes must be crippled, and the parts on his body, one is not much, and one is not much, which is much stronger than Erlang God.
