Chapter Forty-Nine: Breaking the Night
It's just that although Lin Xixue suspects that this Mr. Baili is really as selfless as he seems on the surface, he has no intention of delving into it.
After all, none of these things have anything to do with her.
However, several people with knives blocked the door tightly, and she couldn't get out for a while, so she could only stand silently aside.
It didn't take long for Mr. Na Baili to put on a soap robe, carry a square wooden box more than an inch wide, and slowly walked out with the support of Yixuan.
Seeing this, a group of messengers also quit the pharmacy and waited at the door, Lin Xixue saw that the door gave way to the door, so she was also ready to leave.
However, as soon as she took two steps, Mr. Baili behind her stopped her.
"This girl stays."
"Is there something wrong with the gentleman?"
"I look at the girl's complexion, but I have a hidden disease?"
Lin Xixue didn't respond, she knew her condition very well, her face was pale, obviously abnormal, but it was definitely not a disease.
Serious injuries do not die, and the face remains forever, only when the strange supernatural powers of the magic sword and jade book are used, Yang Shou will be lost.
Rather than an illness, she suddenly felt that perhaps her current state was more like the walking corpse she saw last night, except that the walking corpse was obviously not very sane.
Seeing that she did not respond, Mr. Baili added, "If the girl wishes, you can come back in the evening, and I can treat the girl." ”
She wanted to reject Mr. Baili directly, after all, her current problem is definitely not something that can be solved by a layman.
But after thinking about it, although the blacksmith Xue Xi is also a mortal, he can also use that bronze statue to obtain heavenly fire, and the mortals in this world may not be as simple as it seems.
Perhaps, what can Mr. Baili really see?
After thinking about it for a while, she still decided to agree, after all, a dead horse is a live horse doctor, even if it can't solve the current physical problems, it is always good to know more relevant information.
She picked up the wrapped herbs with her little thumb and arched her hand: "In this way, there will be Mr. Lao, I will come back in the evening to bother." ”
Mr. Baili looked at the herbs in her hand and asked, "Girl, I don't think this medicine was caught for yourself, judging from the compatibility, it looks like a prescription for treating traumatic injuries and bone injuries." ”
Lin Xixue was a little surprised, it seemed that this Mr. Baili did have some real talent, and he didn't hide anything, and said with a slight bow: "Mr. Wisdom, it is indeed a good medicine for a friend." ”
"I can't talk about it, it's just that I've been dealing with these medicinal materials for a few more years, and I still have to go to see the sick for you, and the girl is still going to take care of herself."
Lin Xixue saw that Mr. Baili and this guy were going out, so naturally it was not good to stay in the shop any longer, so she gave a slight salute and then said goodbye.
Back at the blacksmith shop, Xue Xi had already opened the door of the shop, and he was still shirtless, sharpening his knife at the door, and kept making the sound of "clanging" gold and iron.
She stood far away, and Xue Xi was also focused on the work at hand, so she didn't notice her coming back for a while.
She didn't say anything, but stood at a distance and scrutinized the blade that had already taken shape.
The color of the blade was completely different from the dull ironwork in the shop, with a strong metallic sheen, almost a little brighter than the stainless steel used in the previous life.
And because the two alloys are tempered and fused together, an irregular rose pattern is produced at the junction of the cutting edge.
She didn't bother, but left silently.
After all, although the blade is formed, it will take a lot of time to open the blade, put the handle on the handle, make the scabbard and other work, so you can take advantage of this time to go back and change the dressing for Bai Qing first.
Before returning to her hiding place, she wandered the streets, but the streets were mostly filled with men and middle-aged women, and there were few girls of her age.
When she saw a shop selling jade tassels, she bought two tassels by the way, and only needed to retrieve the horizontal knife and use it as a knife spike.
By the way, I also bought some fat powder, after all, my face is really bad now, there is no ruddy color at all, and it really doesn't look good.
After walking around, the entertainment activities in the city are obviously a little depressed, there are no audiences in the audience for storytelling, singing, and tricks, and the people on the stage are also weak.
However, only under the stage where the music was heard, it was full of guests.
The excellent people who sang and played the piano on the stage sang and danced lightly, and the literati and in the audience applauded and rewarded money again and again, so it was not lively.
Seeing this situation, Lin Xixue couldn't help but feel a little bored, but also a little helpless.
I had to go back to the small courtyard where I was hiding with some disappointment and start to change the medicine.
She thought that the smell of medicine and firewood would inevitably leak out when she was boiling, so she sealed all the cracks between the doors and windows of the room with a moist linen cloth, so that the smoke would never leak out.
Although it is simpler to use the jade book to collect smoke, the price of consuming Yang Shou is too great, so she naturally will not use it at will.
She finished changing the medicine for Bai Qing, and suddenly remembered the book "A Hundred Explanations of Dysentery" left by that Hongyanzi.
Although she didn't destroy this thing directly, she didn't dare to look at it easily, after all, Tianzun's monster was the best at confusing people's hearts, who knows if it was a trap for Hongyanzi to give herself this book before he died.
At least until Bai Qing wakes up and explains what happened in the cave that day, it's better not to flip through this book.
After much hesitation, she put the book away and kept it close to her.
After sitting in the box and raising her spirit, the sun went down again, and she sneaked out of the courtyard again and came to the blacksmith's shop.
Xue Xi no longer struck iron, but just held a gourd and poured a certain liquid without a mouthful, revealing a hideous but happy expression every time he drank it.
I think it's some kind of liquor bar.
Xue Xi's cheeks were crimson, and he burped one or two from time to time.
Seeing Xue Xi's decadent drinking, she suddenly remembered the scumbag father in her previous life who had a bad career and used alcohol to kill her sorrows.
She had some anger in her heart inexplicably.
But she suddenly came to her senses again and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Calm down, calm down, how did I become like this now, I get angry at every turn.
Since being dragged into the illusion and auditory hallucinations by Tianzun's monster, the recent mood swings have become bigger and bigger, and you have to restrain it.
She stepped forward and teased, "The shopkeeper has time to drink here, and I think the blade has already been prepared." ”
Lin Xixue didn't call him Xue Xi directly, after all, if he called his name directly, wouldn't it directly show that he had peeked at the process of forging his blade?
Xue Xi rubbed his somewhat worried eyes, saw the person who came, and hurriedly buckled the wine gourd and wiped his mouth.
"It's done, it's done...... Belch...... Woman, I naturally dare not slack off on your orders. ”
"The speed of the shopkeeper's forging of iron tools is really fast, it was completed in just a few hours, and as far as I know, it will take a day or two for other companies to make weapons."
Lin Xixue didn't know what kind of wind she was smoking, but she suddenly wanted to be yin and yang weird, Xue Xi, the raunchy drunkard blacksmith.
"Hehe, family heirloom craft, family heirloom craft...... Xue Xi laughed a little weakly, introduced her into the shop, and picked up a horizontal knife on the table, "The woman can try the knife." ”
As soon as Lin Xixue took the knife, she immediately felt that this knife was indeed extraordinary, and the weight alone was several times that of the light and fluttering iron sword before.
Holding the knife and looking closely, the handle of the knife is made of black sandalwood, and the outside is tightly wrapped around the tanned leather to resist slipping.
Standing on the chest of the knife, the knife was drawn out of the sheath, and there were hidden cyan sparks bursting, and the cold light seemed to cut the lightless night for a moment.
"Why don't the heroines give the sword a name?" Xue Xi's attitude suddenly became solemn and solemn.
A name?
Lin Xixue's eyebrows flickered.
It seems to be a knife that can cut through the night, so it might as well be called ......
Split the light and break the night!
