Chapter Forty-Nine: The Strong Are Like Sifu

Yinren Village, on the banks of the Chunfeng River.

In the Chunfeng River in early spring, the river has risen a lot. In fact, the Chunfeng River will not freeze even in the harsh winter.

The reason why Yinren Village chose to establish a village on the east bank of the river was that after the mountain was closed in the cold winter, the people in the village could still rely on all kinds of fish and shrimp in the river to survive.

With the same idea, there are also the ancestors of Chunfeng Town and Tianhe Town.

It's just that these villages and towns settled in Fallen Leaf County as early as 100 years ago, and these two villages and towns are adjacent to Fallen Leaf City, located in the central area of Fallen Leaf County, in the middle reaches of the Chunfeng River. Yinren Village is further southwest, located in the lower reaches of the Chunfeng River, adjacent to Wanli Linhai.

The east bank of the Chunfeng River was already full of rows of sheds at this time. Merchants from all over Fallen Leaf County set up their stalls.

"Little brother's eyesight is good, this hematite stone is a specialty of our Hongyan Town, the amount of iron is twice as much as that of ordinary iron stone, and the flexibility is good, the forging blade is particularly suitable, and the blade is red, suitable for matching the internal strength of the fire attribute. ”

The merchant in the shed saw that the young man in front of him was holding a piece of hematite stone and looked at it, and he didn't look like a poor owner, so he added: "If the son likes it, it's cheaper, only five taels of silver per piece." ”

The young man checked the hematite stone in his hand, the size of an adult's fist, about ten catties. Even if the iron production rate of hematite is high, ten catties of hematite will produce four catties of refined iron.

Not counting labor costs, four catties of refined iron are worth four taels of silver. This merchant sells for five taels, which is obviously Tong Suo's "deception".

"Does my brother only sell hematite or does he also sell other raw materials?" the boy asked.

When the merchant saw that the young man put down the hematite stone in his hand, he was annoyed that his price was high, and when he saw the other party asking, he hurriedly replied:

"This time I rushed to the Dabi event, and most of the products I brought were my Hongyan Town specialties, but there are also a lot of varieties, little brother can't help but say what do you want? ”

The young man smiled slightly shyly and said, "Three thousand iron." ”

The merchant looked at the young man with a puzzled expression, and then asked, "What?

The young man waved his hand, picked up the red iron stone again, and said, "It's nothing, since you don't have anything, this, two taels, sell it or not?"

The merchant looked distressed and shouted, "Oh yo! It's not even enough for the journey!"

At last the boy came out of the shed with three taels of silver, and took the piece of red iron in his hand. The young man played with the red iron stone in his hand and scolded the "profiteer".

This person is Yi Xifeng, who participated in the first day of the martial arts competition during the day.

However, what Yi Xifeng didn't expect was that the merchant who sent him away with a sad face dropped the door of the stall and left his stall in a hurry not long after he left.

"Mr. Shui, the spies below have come to report, and in front of a cup of tea, a young man is inquiring about the sale of three thousand iron. A short and fat middle-aged man dressed as a businessman bowed down to report to a middle-aged man at this moment.

"Boy, well, send someone to keep an eye on it and see what connection it can have with the blacksmith of Yinren Village?"

The middle-aged man paused, and then asked, "The people led by Feng'er, have you replied?"

Shang Jia bowed down and replied, "The young master sent someone to report that it was only found that there should be an armed force called the Mountain Patrol Team in Yinren Village. However, the specific personnel and strength have not yet been clearly explored. And then there's ......"

Humpty Dumpty Shangjia paused slightly, and then continued: "The leader of this team should be a chivalrous man with a chivalrous name. ”

The middle-aged man surnamed Shui narrowed his eyes slightly, and said sharply: "It should be sent to Feng'er, and you must find out the details of this person." It's rare that the small village of Yinren Village actually has warriors with chivalrous strength, so you have to play with them. ”

Yi Xifeng didn't know that his unintentional bargaining would involve probing between multiple forces.

At this time, he was walking around the assembly on the bank of the Chunfeng River with a comfortable face. He wanted to forge a weapon for himself, although a wooden sword was easier to transmit internal strength than an ordinary iron sword. But it is not a long-term solution, and in the future, the enemy will always be able to fight and suddenly his wooden sword is broken, and then say to the opponent: "Brother Tai and wait, let me change the blade ...... below"

The reason why Yi Xifeng is using a wooden sword now is mainly to exercise his internal strength control ability.

Yi Xifeng knows what he has and what he wants. This is why he is able to do it, far more self-discipline than his peers, which also makes the teenager's behavior more purposeful.

Thinking of this, Yi Xifeng subconsciously touched the iron-locked vest under his robe, as well as the wine gourd with vegetarian wine on his waist.

These are all things he relies on to compete with people from all walks of life in this world, but he understands that his biggest reliance is not these.

In the crowd, the villagers of Yinren Village came and went, rubbing shoulders one after another. No one noticed that a teenager with a wine gourd hanging from his waist was tossing and turning in the crowd and actually practiced walking piles.

Just like the hard training he has been working hard day and night in the past three years, just like the weight-bearing vest that he has never left in the past three years, just like the white-clothed figure who swung his sword again and again in the snow of the Maple Leaf Forest three years ago, just like the drunkard boy who drank eighteen sips of liquor in the Maple Leaf Forest three years ago.

......

In the corner where people can't see, it's a shed roof.

At this moment, there were three people standing, one of whom was wearing a light gray one-piece hood and delicate leather armor, and he was a member of the mountain patrol team.

"Is this the little guy that the captain told me to keep an eye on?" asked one of the men in the Hawkeye mask.

Another man leaning on a branch of a tree replied, "That's right." ”

"What is he doing?" the masked man looked at the thin figure as he moved through the crowd in confusion.

"He's practicing. It was the mountain ranger who answered him, and listening to the voice, the mountain ranger should be not young, and he was nearly middle-aged.

"Do you need to be so diligent?" said the masked man dismissively.

The middle-aged mountain patrol member said: "You don't know him, I was ordered to pay attention to him three years ago. He's always been like this!"

The masked man exchanged glances with the man leaning on the branch, unable to hide his shock.

The middle-aged ranger jokingly asked, "What's wrong?

The man leaning on the branch paused and said, "I have seen too much, diligent man." It's just that someone with such a heart and perseverance at such an age has seen it for the first time. ”

"yes, I was even more shocked than you when I first met him, when he was five years old. But shock to shock, I still don't want to spend effort on this little cub. It was a sentence from the captain that made me feel that I could take this job and pay more attention to him. The middle-aged ranger slammed his mouth and said.

The man leaning on the branch unconsciously straightened up and asked, "What did the captain say?"

"The strong man is like Sifu, and he is reluctant to give up day and night!" replied the middle-aged ranger firmly.

The two subconsciously set their eyes on the thin figure moving in the crowd again, only this time there was no longer surprise and disdain in their eyes, but in their eyes, there was praise and admiration.
