Volume 1 The Adventures of the Boy Chapter 90 Xu Jiaji The blacksmith returns
The sun gradually climbed higher, Yu Chengan yawned, and drove the carriage boredly, the horsewhip in his hand occasionally waved, making a "pop" sound.
At this time, the carriage curtain was lifted, and Shen Qi's head poked out.
"Brother Yu, come for me. Shen Qi smiled and said, "You go to the car and take a rest." β
Yu Cheng'an hesitated for a moment, then unfolded the map, looked at it carefully, and said slowly: "If there is another incense stick, it should be Xujiaji." I'll rest when we get there, and we'll have something to eat there by the way. β
Shen Qi hesitated slightly, then Jiu'er squeezed over and said to Yu Cheng'an: "Brother Yu, I'm afraid the next investigation will be extremely draining, you better take a good rest and recuperate your spirit." β
Yu Cheng'an was slightly stunned, but Jiu'er glanced at him, and then said in a low voice: "I'll catch the car with Shen Qi." β
Yu Cheng'an let out an "oh" at this time, revealing an expression of "I understand", and then quickly handed the map and horse whip to Shen Qi's hand, and said with a smile: "Since you have this intention, I can't live up to it." β
Watching Yu Chengan enter the carriage, Shen Qi came out and sat down, and whispered to Jiu'er: "Why do I think Brother Yu misunderstood something." β
Jiu'er sat down next to Shen Qi, her face was a little red, and she said, "I wanted him to stay alone with Jing'er for a while, but who knew that he wanted to be ...... I really don't know what to say. β
Shen Qi scratched his head, looked at it with a horsewhip, and then asked in a low voice, "Jiu'er, this ...... How?"
Jiu'er smiled and said, "Give it to me, you can watch it from the side." β
Shen Qi let out an "oh" and handed the horsewhip to Jiu'er, while he unfolded the map and looked at it.
Xu Jiaji...... Xu Jiaji ...... "Shen Qi's fingers slowly searched the map, and finally stopped at one location," ...... So ...... Are we heading south?"
Jiu'er looked up at the sun, and then said, "It's going south." β
Shen Qi continued to look at the map and said in a low voice: "Brother Yu just said that we still have about a stick of incense to Xujiaji. So to Wangjiazhuang...... It takes almost two sticks of incense, that is, half an hour. β
Jiu'er nodded and said, "When I get to Xujiaji, I have to find out if there is a blacksmith." β
Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, and said, "What are you looking for a blacksmith to do?"
Jiu'er couldn't help but glance at Shen Qi, and said, "I'm just a sword, and I was beaten into half-scraps by you, I can't find someone to repair it for me?"
Shen Qi couldn't help but blush, scratched his head, and said in a low voice, "Really...... I'm sorry...... It's my fault, you...... Don't be angry, okay?"
Jiu'er couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Why are you so careful when you talk to me now? I won't eat you." β
As she spoke, Jiu'er's face also turned red. After all, the two are now a couple, and Jiu'er is not as casual as before.
Shen Qi smirked and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that you will leave suddenly." I really can't take it anymore. β
Jiu'er couldn't help but turn her head, looked at Shen Qi, and then said slowly: "If you don't give up, I won't leave." β
Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately laughed happily.
This is the first time Jiu'er has responded to herself positively, and she is still so affectionate.
"You're smiling like a fool. Jiu'er couldn't help laughing.
Shen Qi scratched his head, and then said affectionately: "If you really don't leave, I'm willing to become a fool." β
"Don't!" Jiu'er pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to live with a fool for the rest of my life." β
Shen Qi leaned closer to Jiu'er and said in a low voice, "With you by my side, then you will definitely not be stupid." β
Jiu'er glanced at Shen Qi, but the corners of her mouth kept curling.
"Xiao Shen Qi, when did you become so flamboyant?"
Shen Qi's face turned red, and he said in a low voice, "Yes...... Is there one?"
Jiu'er pouted and said, "I think you must have used this trick to deceive a lot of girls, right?"
Shen Qida cried out for being wronged, claiming that he had all seen it from the novel.
Jiu'er smiled and said, "It's really a universal novel! It seems that you are just talking about nice things to make me happy, not from the bottom of your heart!"
Shen Qi shook his head hurriedly and said, "No, no!
This is really bitter Shen Qi, originally he just wanted to say a few nice words to make Jiu'er happy, but he didn't expect Jiu'er to be so difficult to deal with, and he saw through his mind at a glance.
When he arrived at Xujiaji, Shen Qi was so aggrieved that he looked like an angry little daughter-in-law, and Jiu'er patted him on the shoulder with a big grin, and said, "This angry little lady, which one of you didn't have a long eye to provoke you? Tell the uncle, and let the uncle be happy!"
Yu Cheng'an and Wan Lejing both stared at the domineering Jiu'er, and were speechless for a long time.
Shen Qi knew that Jiu'er was deliberately pretending to be like this, so he glared, and then quietly grabbed Jiu'er's hand.
Jiu'er was startled at first, and then whispered to Shen Qi: "Little Shen Qi, we have to go to the blacksmith quickly, we can't delay time." β
Shen Qi nodded, turned to Yu Cheng'an and Wan Lejing, and said, "Brother Yu, Miss Wan, you go eat something first." Jiu'er and I still have some personal matters to do. β
Wan Lejing just wanted to ask, but Yu Chengan grabbed her, pointed to a stall not far away and said, "Okay, let's go get busy first, Jing'er and I will eat something in front." β
Shen Qi nodded, and then turned around and left with Jiu'er.
"Brother Yu," Wan Lejing's big smart eyes couldn't help blinking, and said, "Brother Shen and Sister Jiu'er, aren't they...... Something strange, huh?"
Yu Chengan waved his hand and said, "There's nothing strange about it. Isn't it a good thing that the two of them like each other? Since they want to be alone, then we should be interesting and not disturb them. β
Wan Lejing nodded, shook her head again, and said, "But in the novels I read, after the two people are together, they are not so intimate because of their faces and worldly eyes. But how can Brother Shen and Sister Jiu'er ......"
Yu Cheng'an said: "People are different, right? I think Brother Shen and Miss Jiu'er are both ignorant, although they like each other, they don't know how to treat each other." or pretend to be free, or nervous, in fact, both of them should care about each other's eyes very much. β
Wan Lejing nodded as if she didn't understand, and said, "Brother Yu, you know a lot." β
Yu Cheng'an was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and said secretly: Where do I know more! But I have been beaten and scared since I was a child, and I have learned to figure out other people's thoughts.
Here, Yu Chengan and Wan Lejing are going to eat something and have a good rest. On the other side, after Shen Qi and Jiu'er left, under the guidance of the local villagers, they found the only blacksmith in the town, Duan and returned to Master Duan.
Master Duan's blacksmith shop is located in a separate compound in the northwest corner of the town.
Far away, Shen Qi and Jiu'er heard the sound of "clanging" iron.
The two looked at each other and knew they had found the right place.
After entering the courtyard, all kinds of weapons and agricultural tools were randomly placed on the ground, and at the end of the courtyard was a small house made of stones.
Shen Qi looked at a sturdy middle-aged man in front of him who was pulling the bellows vigorously, and asked loudly, "You are Master Duan, right?"
The sturdy man glanced at Shen Qi, nodded, and said, "I'm Duan Ergui." What do you want to fight?"
Jiu'er took out the long sword that had been beaten into half-scraps by Shen Qi and asked, "Can this sword still be cultivated?"
Duan Ergui glanced at the sword in Jiu'er's hand, and the movements in his hand were not slow at all. After thinking for a while, he said, "I can fix it, but it's very troublesome." β
Jiu'er's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "How long will it take, how much silver do you need?"
Duan Ergui pondered for a moment and said, "It will take at least three days, silver...... One hundred taels!"
Jiu'er was stunned for a moment, and then looked a little displeased, and said, "Buying a new sword is only a few taels of silver, how can you repair it for a hundred taels?"
This sword has a special meaning for Jiu'er.
This is the exclusive sword of the Xuanjia Wei Inner Sect disciples, and it is a long sword made of extremely complex hardware forging methods. Although the quality is far inferior to the legendary "Ten Famous Swords", it is better than the light body of the sword and can launch a sneak attack by surprise.
Duan Ergui's movements in his hand stopped, and then he took out a piece of burnt red iron, and then picked up an iron hammer and hammered it down.
"Whenβ"
Sparks splash.
Shen Qiyan was quick and hurriedly blocked in front of Jiu'er.
Jiu'er couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.
Duan Ergui said lightly: "Indeed, buying a new sword is only ten taels of silver at most. But your sword is a rare sword made of hardware, and if you want to repair it, you must use the same material as itself. Although the sword itself is not very sophisticated, the material is good. It takes a bit of work to fix it. β
Jiu'er gritted her teeth and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll leave it here for the time being, and I'll come back to get it in three days!"
Duan Ergui nodded and said, "Yes." β
Jiu'er thought for a while, took out a silver ticket of fifty taels from her bosom and said, "This is a deposit." β
Duan Ergui smiled and said, "No need." Pay me when you get your sword three days later. β
Jiu'er's eyes couldn't help but flash a gleam.
"Since that's the case, it's going to trouble Master Duan. Jiu'er said.
Duan Ergui responded, and then said: "Looking at the appearance of the two, they should need weapons to be around." I have a dagger here, so let's use it for self-defense. β
As he spoke, Duan Ergui raised his left hand, and a black short sword flew towards Jiu'er.
Shen Qi raised his eyebrows at this time, took the short sword first, and then took a deep look at Duan Ergui.
Duan Ergui grinned and said, "Then, see you in three days." β
Shen Qi and Jiu'er glanced at each other, and then gave their leave.
After coming out of the blacksmith shop, Shen Qi handed the short sword to Jiu'er and said, "This Master Duan's internal strength is very strong, so he shouldn't be a liar. β
After Jiu'er took the short sword, she took a closer look at Shen Qi's body, and after confirming that she was not splashed by the previous sparks, she spoke: "The dignified 'Sword Pool' sword caster is naturally not a liar. β
