"Three little girls...... Carriage ......"

Liu Ruiying muttered to herself.

When he talked about the carriage, he thought of something.

In his heart, the only thing that can be connected with the carriage and the girl is Zhao Mingming and sugar-fried chestnuts.

From the very beginning, when they first met in the Dingxi Royal Domain, in the city of Dingzhou Prefecture, they were in a carriage.

Later, when I came to the Bogu Building, it was the same.

However, Zhao Mingming and sugar-fried chestnuts are two people.

With the personalities of their master and servant, Liu Ruiying never imagined that she would take the initiative to make friends with outsiders and walk all the way.

If it is really Zhao Mingming, then who is this third little girl?

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Ruiying couldn't figure out a reason, so she could only get on the horse and continue to hurry under the urging of Jin Ye.

Hua Nong's expression was a little lonely.

Before, when the little ghost was standing in the distance, and no one recognized who it was, Hua Nong felt that the time had come for him to draw his sword.

Unexpectedly, it was an acquaintance and a friend.

The sword can only face beasts and enemies.

A man who wields a sword against a friend is not worthy of a sword at all.

Hua Nong's right hand was held on the hilt of the sword until he figured out the identity of the little ghost.

But this scene was nervous in Qing Xueqing's eyes.

She thought Hua Nong was scared.

People are afraid that they will always look for some support and support.

In the dead of night, when you wake up from a dream, you will probably light up the lights in a panic.

In fact, if there is real danger, what is the use of lighting the lamp?

The threat doesn't dissipate by the light, and the person who actually wants to kill you won't be scared off by a lit candle.

It's all a trick of self-deception.

Seeing the light makes my heart more stable.

If it's still dark, wouldn't you be a fool?

"You don't have to be afraid, it's okay!"

Qing Xueqing said to Hua Nong.

She is an extremely kind girl, and this comfort is also well-intentioned.

Where to think, this is the speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional.

When these words reached Hua Nong's ears, they actually meant the opposite.

"You're saying I'm scared?"

Hua Nong pointed to the tip of his pen and said.

Qing Xueqing nodded simply.

Hua Nong sneered when he saw it and ignored it.

In his eyes, such a canary was not worth his time at all.

"Who......

Qing Xueqing muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Qingmei, what's wrong?"

Wen Qiwen asked.

I kindly reminded him not to be afraid, but unexpectedly, he touched his nose...... Just now, he was obviously nervously holding the hilt of his sword, and his nails were white!"

Qing Xueqing said.

"Don't be like that. Who knows where it came from, and I don't know why Liu Xingqi would value him so much. ”

Wen Qiwen said.

When Hua Nong heard this, he suddenly tightened the reins, and the horse under his crotch neighed into the sky and stopped.

Such a rapid stop caught Wen Qiwen and Qing Xueqing, who were following behind, off guard.

Especially Qing Xueqing, who was not good at galloping on a horse for such a long distance, almost fell off the horse's back.

"What are you doing here?"

Wen Qiwen scolded sharply.

"When you talk about others, take care of your own mouth. ”

Hua Nong said.

"Qingmei cares about you, and I don't ask for your thanks, but you don't have a good face, and you are still qualified to accuse me?"

Wen Qi Wen Shao said.

"I didn't need to care, and I was never afraid. ”

Hua Nong said.

"Don't say that Qingmei is right, I can also see it clearly! Besides, this fear is human nature, I have also been afraid, what is there to be embarrassed to admit?"

Wen Qiwen retorted.

I said, I'm not afraid. Can you understand?"

Hua Nong said.

Wen Qiwen laughed angrily, but he opened his mouth and couldn't say a word.

After being silent for a long time, he had to shake his head helplessly, and walked forward side by side with Qing Xueqing.

"From today's departure, you two will be talking behind me...... I'm just going to disdain arguing with you, but I'm going to get even worse. ”

Hua Nong said.

"You're so good that you're also a martial artist, why are you like a resentful woman, mother-in-law?"

Wen Qiwen turned his head and said.

"I'm not just a martial artist, I'm also a swordsman. A swordsman is mocked for his sword, and what do you say usually happens?"

Hua Nong said unhurriedly.

The tone was calm, without the slightest hint of anger.

Wen Qingwen smiled lightly, he could hear the provocation in Hua Nong's words.

The sword of a swordsman, the knife of a swordsman, the hands of a boxer, and the legs of a dancer are all more important than life.

If a swordsman's sword is thrown and taunted, it will be even more uncomfortable to cut him with a thousand knives.

Wen Qiwen is also a martial artist, or a swordsman.

Of course, he understands that.

Liu Ruiying and Jin Ye walked in the front and had a hearty conversation.

But there was a sudden silence behind them, which made the two of them feel that something was wrong.

Zhu Ma turned around and saw that not far from the rear, Wen Qiwen and Hua Nong had already dismounted from their horses and stood opposite each other.

"What's wrong with the two of them?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"What do men usually fight with each other for?"

Jin Ye asked rhetorically.

"For the sake of profit and women, of course. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

In addition to the entanglement of interests, the gambling between men is only the competition for women's feelings.

When a man is old, if he has not quarreled with others because of unfair distribution, or has not been jealous because of a certain woman, then he has lived most of his life in vain.

Benefits are reality.

It's something that keeps people fed and doesn't go hungry.

Everyone needs to live, and to live is to have food, clothing, shelter and transportation, all of which are inseparable from interests.

But people are not plants and trees, and they bloom when they are watered.

Spiritual pursuits are often more difficult to satisfy.

Decency, honor and disgrace, and love.

There is no interest between Hua Nong and Wen Qiwen.

And Liu Ruiying also knows that he is not a jealous person.

Some are even too indifferent and cold.

He has not fully learned the feelings of the world.

However, compared to the first time I met Liu Ruiying, it was already a world of difference.

"But they really can't be considered men yet...... It's not because of profit, it's not because of women, so what?"

Liu Ruiying said.

Wen Qiwen is a big young master, and when he is stingy, he is like the stars holding the moon, and his speech is naturally unobstructed. Your nephew, I can see that he has a lot of backbone. It is already a miracle that a person with backbone and a person with no mouth can walk together peacefully for so long!"

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying glanced at Jin Ye in surprise.

He didn't expect that in just a few days, he would have such a deep understanding of Huanong.

The old horse boy once told Liu Ruiying that the most terrible weapon on the rivers and lakes is not the sword, but the smile of a beautiful woman and the bad heart of a good person.

The most terrifying person is not a killer who claims to be innocent, but a sharp person who can strip you naked at a glance.

The previous sentence is very easy to understand.

It's hard to buy a beautiful woman.

But as long as the beauty smiles slightly, there is nothing in this world that she can't do.

A smile has an inexplicable power for everyone.

Either friendly or honest.

But only the smile of a beautiful woman can make people crazy and crazy.

You can even give everything for this laugh to appear more and for a longer time.

The reason why well-wishers are called good-hearted people is because they are good-natured.

But that doesn't mean they don't have twisted thoughts.

If a well-wisher suddenly has a bad heart, it is even more terrible than a downright badass.

Bullies and strongmen walk down the streets, and everyone knows it.

I can't afford to provoke and hide.

But it's too late for well-wishers to welcome everyone, how can they hide?

In the end, he was caught off guard by it, and he didn't even notice it.

Liu Ruiying has seen these two things more than once.

But to say that the sharpness that can strip people at a glance is just realized.

Isn't Jin Ye exactly the sharpness in the mouth of the old stable?

He and Hua Nong have met several times at most in the past few days, and he has not spoken more than five sentences, and he can assert that he is a man of great backbone. ’

Liu Ruiying is searching her intestines and scraping her stomach, and she can't find a more appropriate description than this.

The kindness of a good person is out of love, and the smile of a beautiful person is out of friendliness.

People with backbone dare not give an inch because of courage.

Love, friendliness, and courage are all extremely important to a person.

Countless sages even dared to assert that if all three of these qualities were concentrated in one person, then he would surely become a brilliant existence of the present and the ancient.

But Liu Ruiying doesn't think so.

While he acknowledges that these three points are particularly important, they are far from being able to change a person.

Compared with love, friendliness, and courage, perseverance is the most important thing that can make the difference between a person's front and back.

The rope saws the wood and the water drops the stone.

It does not depend on courage on a whim, nor on friendship that does not offend each other, but on unwavering perseverance.

This is the only essential force that can change oneself and the one around it.

"It seems that this miracle will not last long, but it is not false at all. ”

Liu Ruiying shook her head and said.

After speaking, he was ready to step forward to persuade a few words.

But Jin Ye stretched out his hand to stop Liu Ruiying's body.

"Liu Xingqi, you are suppressing their anger at this time, and it is only temporary...... When it erupts later, it will only be more turbulent!"

Jin Ye said.

"Infighting is always bad...... I'm afraid someone will get hurt. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"Does Liu Xingqi have confidence in his nephew?"

Jin Ye asked.

Liu Ruiying smiled but did not speak.

The answer is obvious.

If he has a personal experience of Hua Nong's sword.

Liu Ruiying suddenly remembered someone.

It is Shi Yifeng, who is known as the 'Pingnan Quick Sword'.

When he was in Dingzhou Fucheng, he was the peripheral of the development of the Investigation Division and assisted Liu Ruiying in dealing with things together, but he didn't expect to die in the inn.

The dignified 'Pingnan Quick Sword' didn't even pull out the sword, and it became a big joke all over the world!

But the person who killed Shi Yifeng still doesn't know his face.

Liu Ruiying couldn't help but compare this mysterious assassin with Hua Nong in his heart.

Both use swords.

It's all fast swords.

Who's faster, exactly?

I didn't expect to compare for a long time, but there was no result.

Jin Ye looked at it with interest on the side, and took out a water bladder filled with wine from behind the saddle.

After raising his head and taking a few sips, he handed it to Liu Ruiying.

At this time, Liu Ruiying had no intention of drinking at all, but it was difficult to refuse, so she had to take a shallow sip.

"My sword is rudimentary indeed...... But do you know what the essence of a sword is?"

Hua Nong asked.

Wen Qiwen didn't answer.

In his heart, he didn't look up to Hua Nong.

Since you look down on a person outright, ignoring it is the biggest counterattack to it.

Seeing this, Hua Nong had to turn his head slightly and glanced at Liu Ruiying.

Seeing Liu Ruiying's relaxed face, but there was no look of blame, as if it was acquiescence, Hua Nong relieved his heart.

"Your sword is better than mine, but swords are not meant to be seen. Try?"

Hua Nong said contemptuously.

Especially the two words at the end of the words, "try", made Wen Qiwen feel that he had lost face......

Especially when Qing Xueqing was still on the side.

"Brother Wen, forget it...... It's all your own people, don't hurt the peace!"

Qing Xueqing tugged at Wen Qiwen's sleeve and said.

"Harmony is not swallowing. Everyone else is on top of me, how can I be amiable?"

Wen Qi said without looking back.

Qing Xueqing was shocked when she heard this!

This was the first time she had heard such vulgar words come out of Wen Qiwen's mouth.

For a while, Qing Xueqing actually felt that the person in front of her was a little strange.

The gentleness and patience of the past fell to the freezing point in an instant, and there was nothing left.

From this moment on, Qing Xueqing's understanding of men has taken a deeper step.

As for what he realized, only he knew.

Wen Qiwen slowly pulled out the knife.

Five expressions on the face.

He was extremely confident in himself and in the knife in his hand.

One knife out, the future is settled.

But he still has a very measured heart.

After all, Hua Nong is Liu Xingqi's nephew, if he doesn't let him go, it will also make Liu Ruiying's face dull.

No matter how you say it, it can only be up to the point.

Hua Nong's hand also rested on the hilt of the sword.

His sword had no scabbard.

If you want to use a sword, you will be much faster than Wen Qiwen.

But now that Wen Qiwen has pulled out the knife, the gap between the two has also disappeared.

"Your sword doesn't seem to be unsheathed. ”

Wen Qiwen said.

The mockery is palpable.

"That's right. Because of the delay in unsheathing. ”

Unexpectedly, Hua Nong nodded very earnestly and said.

"You care about time?"

Wen Qiwen asked.

"Of course. Don't you care?"

Hua Nong asked.

No one doesn't care about time, so Wen Qiwen ignored Hua Nong's stupid question.

However, the time that Hua Nong said was very different from the time that Wen Qiwen said.

The time that Hua Nong said was in the moment of life and death.

And what Wen Qiwen said is that there are twelve hours in a day.

Between the two, there is not the slightest comparison at all.

"If you care about time, why don't you come out with a sword?"

Wen Qiwen urged.

Hua Nong was silent.

The brow condensed into a pimple.

His mind was constantly calculating.

Calculate what kind of strength, speed and angle this sword should be if it is really going to be released.

This will not hurt Wen Qiwen's life, but also make him shut up completely.

"Wen Qiwen, this kid is going to lose...... But it's a good thing for him!"

Jin Ye said as he drank his wine.

"How can you conclude that Wen Qiwen is going to lose?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

Although he also thought so in his heart, he wanted to confirm again how sharp Jin Ye's eyes were.

"You can tell from his knife. Wen Qiwen is too conceited......"

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying nodded.

Hua Nong is an extremely pragmatic young man.

There is one thing to say, never exaggerated.

If he says it, he will do it.

The pompous style of the young man did not exist in him at all.

In the mountains and wilderness, every step is in crisis, and there is no moment of stability.

If Hua Nong's heart was the same as Wen Qiwen's, he was afraid that he would have become a meal on the plate of the beasts long ago.

"How are you going to fight?"

Wen Qiwen asked.

He said "fight" rather than "compare".

The difference between the words is thousands of miles away.

If it is a comparison, then it must be divided into high and low.

At that time, it will not only really hurt the harmony, but also make Liu Xingqi lose face.

It's different.

Fight is nothing more than a precursor.

Scrambling.

There is only a precedence, there is no winning or losing.

Even if the first one wins, the latter loses.

But at least it sounds much better.

"I don't know...... I haven't fought like that. ”

Hua Nong thought for a while and said.

Wen Qiwen thought he was pretending.

In fact, Hua Nong thought about it seriously.

He carefully recalled in his mind the motives and purposes of each sword, but none of the swords could adapt to the current situation.

Both for beasts and for people.

His sword was never meant to be won or lost, first.

Hua Nong's sword is only about life and death.

But he couldn't let Wen Qiwen die no matter what.

So he could only fall into a deep entanglement......

Such thoughts melt into the words, and when they are spoken, they can be just three words, and I don't know.

"I don't know what to do, and I'm embarrassed to say it?"

Wen Qiwen said.

There are many harmless ways to fight in martial arts.

Wen Qiwen let Hua Nong choose.

However, Hua Nong has never had such an experience, so he can only stand in place and say nothing.

In fact, he has already made a decision in his heart, but he is still in the final struggle.

"Forget it. ”

Hua Nong looked at the sky, removed his hand from the hilt of the sword, and said.

Bow your head and walk towards your horse.

"Qingmei, do you see? Some people are so bullying the weak and afraid of the hard. This is not as good as our Hongzhou Mansion City, but you are not so kind. ”

Wen Qiwen looked at Hua Nong's figure and said.

Qing Xueqing didn't seem to have recovered from her previous emotions.

She didn't hear what Wen Qiwen said at all, she just nodded blankly in response.

Hua Nong got on the horse, ignored the ridicule of Wen Qiwen, and walked straight forward and came to Liu Ruiying's side.

"Why don't you come out of the sword?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Because it's not necessary. ”

Hua Nong said with a smile.

"Is it unnecessary, or are you worried that you won't be able to grasp it?"

Jin Ye asked.

"Both. And if I want to use my sword, I've always done my best. ”

Hua Nong said.

"I'm afraid you've been using this sword for a long time!"

Jin Ye said.

"It's been a long time. ”

Hua Nong said as he looked at his sword.

"How did you get to be like this?"

Jin Ye asked.

"That's what it was when I picked it up. ”

Hua Nong said.

Jin Ye's heart was a little shocked...... He didn't expect that Hua Nong's broken sword was actually picked up, and he didn't expect that Hua Nong didn't even have his own sword, and he still used a picked up sword.

He subconsciously glanced at Liu Ruiying, and felt that his uncle was a little too derelict in his duties......

"The mine is almost here, hurry up, if you delay after the afternoon, the wind will rise, and it will be even more difficult to walk. ”

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying and Hua Nong responded and rode forward.

Jin Ye was stopped by Wen Qiwen.

"Fang is the one I reckless......"

Wen Qiwen said.

Apologies.

"Isn't that the case with young people? ”

Jin Ye smiled and patted Wen Qiwen's shoulder and said.

"I just can't get used to his attitude towards Qingmei. ”

Wen Qiwen said.

"There are all kinds of people in this world. The more capable people are, the more strange their temper may be. ”

Jin Ye said.

Wen Qiwen pondered this sentence for a while, and suddenly reacted, isn't this Jin Ye praising Na Hua Nong for being very capable?

"You're far from him. ”

Jin Ye pointed to Hua Nong in front of him and said to Wen Qiwen.

"I'm certainly not weaker than him!"

Wen Qiwen said arrogantly.

Jin Ye's words touched his self-esteem.

He didn't dare to use the knife against Jin Ye, so he could only defend it with words.

"You'll find out later...... Just now, if you are born and die, your body has been covered by the wind and sand. ”

Jin Ye said.

Although Wen Qiwen did not refute again, he was still indignant in his heart......

Hua Nong's sword is inferior to Hanako's dog-beating stick, how can it compete with his own sword?

Wen Qiwen has secretly made up his mind, and if he has the opportunity, he will definitely let Hua Nong suffer a big loss under his knife.

Jin Ye saw Wen Qiwen's thoughts, but he said that was all he wanted, and it was useless to say more.

I thought that Hua Nong would make a move, teach him a lesson, and let this young master know what it means to know what it means to be a person outside of people.

Although his sword skills are not weak, his realm is also good at this age.

But compared with Hua Nong, he lacks a lot of experience between life and death.

"Although my sword technique is not as subtle as Qingfu's shadow slashing knife, it is also an outstanding existence in Hongzhou. ”

Wen Qi said so in a polite manner.

"His swordsmanship only has one move, do you know what it is?"

Jin Ye asked rhetorically.

Of course, Wen Qiwen couldn't guess.

"Go all out!"

Jin Ye said.

When Wen Qiwen heard these four words, his heart suddenly "clicked", and he didn't know what suddenly opened.

After this little episode, everyone hurried away in silence.

Despite some delays on the way, we finally arrived at the mine at noon.

Liu Ruiying saw that there were also a lot of sheds here.

It looks a lot more delicate than the hostess's side.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, a dozen strong men immediately emerged from these sheds, all of them naked.

The skin was tanned by the vicious sun.

The hair is shaved very short. Looks extremely energetic.

After seeing Jin Ye, everyone bowed down to say hello.

"All right?"

Jin Ye asked.

A leader-like man stepped forward to lead the horse for Jin Ye, and nodded after hearing the culture.

"Where's the mine?"

Liu Ruiying raised his eyes and looked around, but he didn't see any traces of excavation.

"It's kind of a camp. The place where the mine was opened had to go more than 20 miles. Let's rest here for a while and then go in. At this time, the sun is the most poisonous, and the wind and sand are the largest. ”

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying also felt a little strange, it was far from summer yet.

The summer of the Zhenbei Royal Domain also came much later than elsewhere.

But the sun on the mine is not merciful at all......

sunned on Liu Ruiying's face, but it made his face hot and a little painful.

Jin Ye walked around a tent in the center, lifted the curtain and walked in.

"You're more comfortable now, aren't you?"

Jin Ye asked with a smile.

The inside and outside of the tent are two heavens.

Fang Cai couldn't see it outside, and when he walked into the camp chief, Liu Ruiying, found that these camp tents were all semi-underground.

Liu Ruiying once read in the book that this is a unique way of living next door to the desert.

It is neither a house nor a tent.

It is to dig a soil pit one zhang deep, two to three zhang long and high from the flat ground, make purlins with thick tree trunks, make rafters with thin tree trunks, and spread tree strips or reeds. If there are conditions, you can cover it with a layer of tarpaulin to prevent moisture.

Finally, sprinkle a layer of wheat straw, cover with a layer of crushed soil, and then paste a thick layer of grass mud, leaving a skylight in the middle to ventilate and guide the light, and it is done.

In this way, it is mainly to survive the difficult winter.

In the harsh winters, this semi-underground dwelling can also be made of adobe to build a half-human-high hollow fire wall.

It can be used to make rice, dry clothes and quilts.

When the firewood in the stove burns red, it will suddenly become warm.

Although the air is a little dirty and the smell is not so good because of the unpleasant desire to circulate, in the winter here, warmth comes first.

"Does Liu Xingqi think this tent is fresh?"

Jin Ye asked.

"It's really fresh...... I've only read dry words in books before, but I didn't expect to be able to experience it one day. ”

Liu Ruiying said.

"Every spring and autumn, the sandstorms on the mine become violent and frequent. I don't know when I will shave it. Sometimes the weather looks good, but suddenly the sky changes color. The sand was so dark that it was hard to even stand and walk, and the wind and sand in my sister's place were nothing compared to the real mines...... Whenever this happens, I, my men and the laborers in the mines, have no choice but to get into it to escape. I also gave this a nice name, "Feng Xiu". ”

Jin Ye said.

If you don't know the reason for this, you might feel very elegant when you hear about this at first glance!"

Liu Ruiying said.

"It's not just the wind, sometimes it's too big, and we have to stop working. Although hard labor has a bitter word, it is not dead labor after all. In the middle of summer, this day can also kill. ”

Jin Ye said.

"That's called a 'day off'?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Haha, I didn't give it a name...... However, Liu Xingqi is also right, it is "day off". ”

Jin Ye said.

"In the summer, will the sand in the mine be lesser?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

There was a high bulge in the middle of the tent, which was ventilated on all sides, but it was called out by the wind and sand outside.

"Summer, that's a little smaller...... It's not at all!"

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying felt a little incredible......

He couldn't imagine what it would be like when the wind and sand stopped.

"What did you do when this wasn't a mine?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

Jin Ye smiled, took out an ancient book from the back of his seat quite proudly, blew the floating soil on it, and handed it to Liu Ruiying.

"Look at the book. ”

Jin Ye said.

The title of the book was blurred, and Liu Ruiying couldn't see it after spending a lot of effort, so he simply put it aside, waiting for Jin Ye to tell him directly.

"In the days of the previous dynasties, it was a small independent country. It wasn't big now, but it was extremely important at the time. ”

Jin Ye said.

"It's a strategic point. After the rise of the Prairie Royal Court, it must have been coveted for a long time...... This small country must have perished in the end, right?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

Jin Ye nodded.

Both of them were a little emotional at the same time.

Canghai Cangtian, the world is changing too fast.

This small country may have prospered for a while, but in the end it was reduced to a cloud of smoke.

"But the iron ore here has long been discovered. ”

Jin Ye changed his words and said.

This iron ore is all over the five major royal domains, but it is the Zhenbei royal domain, Hongzhou is the most dense, the highest yield, and the quality is high.

And it is very easy to mine, and most of them are shallow in the ground and not deep in caves.

On the contrary, it is produced most in plains and hilly areas, not in high mountains.

There are several types of iron ore: "ingot iron" in the form of soil blocks and "sand iron" in the form of crushed sand. If you look at the Tieliu Provincial Flag from here, as long as it is black and exposed on the soil, and the shape is like a weighing hammer, it is iron. ”

Jin Ye pointed outside and said.

Liu Ruiying felt novel, walked over and bent down to pick up a piece to play with, but when he pinched it with his hand, it turned into slag.

"Such iron ore has not yet been formed. If you want to smelt, you have to build up these pieces of scraps that are on top of it. But this is too much effort and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying knew that this iron was divided into two types: pig iron and wrought iron.

Among them, pig iron has been baked but has not been fried, and after frying, it becomes wrought iron.

Mixing pig iron with wrought iron turns it into a harder steel.

Jin Ye understood that Liu Ruiying was interested, so he led him towards the several tents next to him.

It was all made of salt-mixed clay iron-making furnaces, which should have been built next to a cave, but this is where the river is flat, so it has to be like this......

It would have taken a month to make such a furnace out of salt clay, and it should not be rash and greedy.

Because once there is a crack in this salt mud, it is all in vain......

There is only one iron-making furnace in Jin Ye's battalion commander, which can hold more than 2,000 catties of iron ore.

At the moment, someone was buying the work inside, and kept throwing the hardwood into the fire.

The bellows of the blower are more than one person high, and four people shout the horn at the same time to push and pull together to be able to work.

In a short time, the iron ore in the furnace turned into molten iron. All of them flowed out of the holes in the waist of the iron-making furnace.

Liu Ruiying didn't see that there was any space on this stove before, so it turned out that he had plugged it with mud in advance.

A furnace of iron was smelted in each of the six hours of the day, and immediately after the iron was mined, the laborers plugged the holes with forks and mud, and then blew the wind to smelt them again.

"It seems that as long as this fire does not stop, Jin Ye will be able to make a lot of money!

Liu Ruiying said.

Qing Xueqing and Wen Qiwen did not follow.

This tent with an iron-making furnace is too hot for ordinary people to stand it.

Even the hard workers working inside kept pouring water on their bodies to cool down.

But even so, a group of hard workers can only work for more than an hour at most.

If you take a long time, you will be scorched by the scorching heat.

After Liu Ruiying followed Jin Ye around, he returned to the previous camp.

Wen Qiwen was holding a basin of water in both hands, and Qing Xueqing was combing her hair.

The bumps along the way made her hair mixed with a lot of grit.

Qing Xueqing, who has always loved cleanliness, can't bear it for a moment, and has to get them all out before she stops.

"Don't wash it, it can't be cleaned. You wash it now, and after a while, the wind will blow and it will be dirty again!"

Jin Ye said.

Qing Xueqing didn't care.

If you don't wash it, not only will you feel uncomfortable, but your heart will also be very uncomfortable.

Liu Ruiying glanced around the camp tent and didn't see Hua Nong's figure.

When I opened the curtain, he was standing in the doorway, facing the wind and sand, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Uncle Shi, I still like the outside. ”

Hua Nong said.

"This Gobi Desert is very different from the mountains and forests you lived in before, right?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"The mountains and forests are a little more alive than they look here. ”

Hua Nong said.

"Wen Qiwen is not sensible, you don't want to be like him......"

Liu Ruiying thought about it, but still spoke.

"I know. So I finally stopped. ”

Hua Nong said with a smile.

Liu Ruiying looked at this extremely determined young man, and felt very sorry......

Although this regret did not burst out once or twice, he always felt that this time was more intense than any previous one.

"How far is it from the middle capital?"

Hua Nong asked suddenly.

"Go there, cross the Taishang River, and you can get there in more than half a month. ”

Liu Ruiying pointed in a direction and said.

He wasn't very documentary.

But the middle capital city is his home, where his home is.

No matter where a person is, he can find a home.

No matter how much the drunk drinks, he may be able to wake up from his bed the next day.

Hua Nong can no longer find the direction of the mountains and wilderness where he once lived.

That's probably because he never belonged.

There are so many things in life, and there are so many places to go.

But it is not possible to regard a temporary resting place as a long-term belonging.

Love and look, satisfaction and desire, security and trust.

Constantly intertwined and overlapped, accompanying a person's footprints.

Liu Ruiying stood with him at the door for a moment, then turned around and went back to the tent.

Jin Ye was listening to the report of his subordinates.

He is not shy about everyone.

Liu Ruiying had just sat down and picked up a cup of tea, when she saw Wen Qiwen coming over.

You don't have to think about it to know what he's going to say......

But it's similar to what Liu Ruiying said to Hua Nong.

"It's okay!"

Liu Ruiying put down the teacup and said to Wen Qiwen.

Now that you know what the other party is going to say, there is no need to bother waiting for him to finish.

One sentence is not hindered, it already represents all.

Wen Qiwen didn't react instantly, but he figured it out and smiled apologetically at Liu Ruiying.

Liu Xingqi ...... You are his uncle, dare to ask him who his master is?"

Wen Qiwen asked.

"Why are you suddenly curious about him?"

Liu Ruiying asked rhetorically.

Hua Nong's master is too famous, and his identity is too sensitive, but it's not a good thing to say.

"I just think it's a little weird that this senior's eyes are really weird. ”

Wen Qiwen said.

He pondered this sentence again and again.

After all, he used extremely calm and objective words to express the doubts in his heart.

"His master is indeed a strange man, and he is blind. If you want to talk about vision, he doesn't have any vision at all!"

Liu Ruiying said with a smile.

Wen Qiwen was completely stunned after hearing this.

He originally thought that Huanong's uncle must also be a talent in the Investigation Division, otherwise how could he call Liu Ruiying a brother?

But there will never be a blind person in the Investigation Division.

What can a blind man do in the Investigation Division?

Not to mention that it is in a hub of the world like the Investigation Division, even if you find an ordinary market, it is difficult for a blind person to have a foothold.

Liu Ruiying said that, and began to drink tea instead.

Wen Qiwen silently retreated and sat beside Qing Xueqing.

She had already combed all her hair, and was wiping it with a snow-white towel.

The curtain was lifted again, but it was not Hua Nong who walked in, but four sturdy men with huge trays.

There were all kinds of things on the tray, and bursts of aroma came, making Liu Ruiying suddenly hungry.

"There are even fish!"

Liu Ruiying looked at the tray and said.

"Does Liu Xingqi think that there are no rivers or lakes here, how can there be fish?"

Jin Ye said.

"Exactly. ”

Liu Ruiying nodded yes.

"If you want me to tell me why, I don't know it...... But the fish was caught from a well. ”

Jin Ye said.

Liu Ruiying heard for the first time that there were still fish in this well.

However, when I was a child, I saw those gods and ghosts that some wells, which seem ordinary, are actually connected to the East China Sea thousands of miles away, and such wells are called sea eyes, which are the dwelling places of the dragons in the sea.

However, compared to the fish, the dish in the center of the tray made Liu Ruiying even more confused.

Looks like a large pocket, squatting on a plate.

The mouth of the bag was still tightly tied, and I didn't know what was inside.

"This is not a thing of the Five Great Princes, they are all transmitted from above. ”

Jin Ye said.

The above he was referring to was the north.

The north of the Zhenbei royal domain, the grassland royal court.

"This dish is originally to put the bone-in lamb into the belly, pour water into it, take willow branches to seal the lamb's belly, and finally bury the wrapped lamb's belly in the Gobi Desert. It is usually in the middle of summer, and the hottest time at noon only takes an hour and a half to lose. If today's practice is seen by those grassland people, it will scold the mother. ”

Jin Ye said.

"But why?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Because I don't put mutton in it, but wolf meat!

Jin Ye deliberately lowered his voice and said.

The wolf is the most loyal companion of the steppe people, and they will not harm it in any way.

As for eating, it's even more impossible......

Liu Ruiying suddenly thought that if Jing Yao was here, she didn't know what her reaction would be when she saw this bag of wolf meat.

With his temperament, he may not scold his mother...... It must be drawn immediately.

After wanting to play these, Liu Ruiying felt that she was a little strange......

Otherwise, how could he think of Jing Yao for no reason?

He was neither his partner nor his friend.

Liu Ruiying forgot that sometimes enemies are closer to a person than partners and know better than friends.
