Chapter Seventy-Two: Tempering the Body
The weather is starting to get hotter.
The building complex on the bank of Peach Blossom Creek has gradually taken on a magnificent appearance.
Of course, those peach blossoms in Peach Blossom Villa have long been grateful, but they have borne fruit, which is already the size of a thumb.
Li Chen'an's life these days is very comfortable, except for the blue nose and swollen face that was practiced by Wu Xichen every night on the bank of Peach Blossom Creek.
He forged twenty thin, small, and sharp throwing knives from Blacksmith Zhao.
He remembered the novel he had read when he was a teenager, and wondered if he had traveled into the world of that novelβ
For example, the protagonist named Li Xunhuan is also a seven-jinshi father and son at home.
For example, they are all surnamed Li.
is also like the Xiao Li flying knife that he made up.
It's just that Li Xunhuan gave up his beloved for his friend, which he would never do.
It's just that Li Xunhuan's flying knife is invincible, and his own flying knife is ......
"What are you throwing here?"
Wu Xichen frowned and reprimanded loudly: "Although the teacher disdains to use the secret weapon, the teacher also knows that the so-called secret weapon lies in a secret word!"
"What is darkness?"
"It's erratic and nowhere to be found!"
"It's to make the enemy unguardable and unavoidable!"
Wu Xichen's fingertips held a flying knife that Li Chenan had just shot at him, "Your flying knife is both weak and shapely, even if you don't accept it, it is estimated that at most it is piercing your clothes, and you can't even hurt your fur!"
"Remember, the secret weapon must be fast and accurate! ...... like this!"
Wu Xichen threw the flying knife caught in his fingertips.
Li Chen'an saw a flash of light and shadow, followed by a "duh", and the flying knife shot into a peach tree, sinking deep into it, and not even showing its tail.
"Master is mighty!"
Wu Xichen blushed a little and turned his head, he wanted to shoot the peach down, but he missed his head.
He left with his hands behind his back, and threw a sentence to Li Chenan: "Practice, practice like this!"
"Don't delay your sword practice!"
The sword was on Li Chen'an's back.
This sword was not made by him in Blacksmith Zhao's blacksmith shop, but was given to him by Wu Xichen.
It was a very old sword that looked like it had gone through many years.
The unknown layer of leather wrapped around the scabbard had long been mottled, and the spike was supposed to be red, but now it was pulped.
He drew his sword, three fingers wide and three feet and two inches long, and it was not silver, but black.
It's so dark that even the light doesn't seem to reflect it.
The hilt of the sword was engraved with two vaguely distinguishable words: no two!
No two swords, no two weeks of heavenly tricks.
But Wu Xichen did not teach Li Chenan any swordsmanship.
He said...... You can practice as much as you want.
Li Chenan pulled out the second sword and swung it a few times at will, feeling that his movements were quite handsome and elegant.
With this cyan robe, dancing with a sword, it seems to have a feeling of an immortal.
But he didn't like it, it was too dangerous.
So he inserted the Fuji Sword into the scabbard again and continued to practice his Xiao Li Flying Knife.
At dusk he returned to the tavern.
Business in the tavern was just right at this time.
Su Muxin greeted those regular customers enthusiastically in the tavern, and when she saw Li Chen'an coming in, she grinned.
"On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Takeshita Academy and Qianmo Academy held a Dragon Boat Festival at Huaping Lake. β
"Mr. Zhang, the head of the Light Ink Academy, invited me, and asked me to invite you to go with me, how about it?"
Li Chen'an thought about it, this thing is really not interesting, but by the fifth day of the fifth month of May, his own wine-making workshop was almost completed, and the first batch of wine could be brewed in early June.
The three characters of Huaping Chun were inscribed by Hua Manting, so he decided to use the name Huaping Chun for more high-end wines.
Then the newly brewed 35-degree wine will have another name, and he has already thought about it, so it will be called Peach Blossom Brew.
If you want this peach blossom brew to be accepted by the people of Guangling City, you can advertise it at that Dragon Boat Festival.
Let's get the atmosphere up first.
So he nodded, "It's okay to go, but I have a small request." β
Su Mu was stunned, "What are the requirements?"
"I want the naming rights of this cultural meeting!"
β...... What is naming rights?"
"It's called this cultural meeting the Peach Blossom Brewing Dragon Boat Festival. β
"What's the peach blossom stuff?"
Li Chenan explained to Su Muxin, and Su Muxin suddenly realized.
He admired Li Chen'an very much, because this Dragon Boat Festival was quite powerful, and the impact on Guangling City would be great.
For the convening of this grand event, Mr. Zhang of Qianmo Academy even said that he would invite many celebrities in Guangling City.
I will also invite the girls of the incense hall to help the fun.
On this occasion, let everyone remember the name Peach Blossom Brew, so that all the drinkers are looking forward to the launch of this wine, and it will be an instant hit when the time comes!
"This is the ...... Why don't you talk to your father?"
Li Chen'an's father Li Wenhan is the head of Takeshita Academy and one of the initiators of this literary meeting, if his father agrees, there will be no problem.
Li Chenan waved his hand, "It's better for you to go and talk to Mr. Zhang." β
β...... With your current situation, I think your father wants you to go back. β
"It's time to go see my mother, and as for the rest, I'll ignore it for now. β
"Okay, I'll go to the Light Ink Academy when I'm done with this. β
"Well, when will Miss Murong come back?"
Su Muxin smiled a little embarrassedly, "It is estimated that it will be in mid-June." β
"By the way, the small courtyard behind this tavern is too small, these days you can see if the neighbors have rented or sold, and it is better to rent or buy. β
"In this way, you can also move from the Light Ink Academy, and you and Miss Murong will be able to stay together at that time. β
"Good. β
Li Chenan went to the backyard, Cuihua was rummaging through the grain in the wine trough, and she didn't seem to be in good spirits.
I don't know what's wrong with this girl.
He didn't want to ask, after all, the girl was already so old, and she would always be a little careful.
He entered the east wing, closed the door, and took the small box from under the bed and placed it on the table.
Open the small box, and inside is a stack of silver ticketsβ
It wasn't earned by him from this tavern, but it was taken from Song Yuanping.
When he took it, there were fifty silver tickets worth one hundred taels inside, which was the reason why he was able to equip Li Jiajun's sixty teenagers with weapons in a bold manner.
That halberd is worth twenty-five taels of silver!
Sixty handfuls cost him fifteen hundred taels of silver!
Next, they had to be equipped with armor, and Blacksmith Zhao said that if he played according to the style he designed, a piece of armor would cost sixty taels of silver...... It will cost another three thousand six hundred taels, and five thousand taels of silver will be gone.
Why don't you use rattan armor first?
After all, I haven't made any money yet.
The money had to be used to buy grain first.
He took the silver ticket into his bosom and took out the list of the Ichthyosaurus Club from the bottom of the box again.
There were a few people on this list that he had heard of or knew.
For example, Wen Huan, one of the three great talents in Guangling.
There are even Cai Zhengyao's son Cai Tongan, and Shen Qianshan's son Shen Jiye!
There is no Wen Xiaowan, the top brand of the Ning Xiang Pavilion.
Of course, he hadn't heard of any more.
I think most of them are people in the rivers and lakes.
You have to write down the names of these people and ask the Sword Dance Girl.
