"Okay, that's all." Ye Peitian picked out a few frozen pears and handed a demon seed to the old man who bought the pears.
The old man in his old age, in the cold winter, wears a shabby padded jacket that is really not warm, and his skinny face and fingers are frozen with frostbite.
There are very few things on his stall, except for a few frozen pears and a small bucket of freshly picked plum blossom branches. Plum blossom branches are also used to sell, but in this year, there are almost no people who buy flowers, but it is better than nothing to expect to increase a little income.
"This is a bonus, thank you for always taking care of my business." He packed Ye Peitian with pears, and then handed two long budding plum blossom branches to Ye Peitian's hand.
Ye Peitian carried the purchased fruit, held the flower branch in one hand, and walked slowly by the Black Water River.
He liked to walk this road very much. Along the river in this section of Black Street, he could see a row of dilapidated small hotels on the other side. It carried the best memories of his life. When he and Qianxun met for the first time, they were brought here by Qianxun's arms. The embarrassment and sweetness at that time would still make him blushed in retrospect.
There is a shop that makes magic tools on the side of the road. The shop owner has hired a young apprentice, and a boy of about ten years old can't reach the fire. He stepped on a small chair, stood beside the fire, tinkled a hammer, and did the most basic forging work meticulously.
"Take a rest, Xiao Chai, the master is not here, you don't need to work so hard." The apprentices in the same store greeted him to go and rest together.
"Thank you, Senior Brother, I want to finish this." Xiao Zhui wiped the sweat from his forehead. His right hand was shaking so much that he couldn't lift the heavy hammer because of the continuous force for too long. He changed his arm and started Try to dissolve a small piece of abandoned demon body with supernatural power, and draw out the filaments into the embryo that has been repeatedly beat and forged.
Since he came here, he has practiced this process dozens of times using discarded leftovers, but he never feels boring and still operates meticulously.
"Hey, I said Xiaochai, what's the matter with you these two days? What are you doing so hard? When you were a gangster in the dark street, I didn't see you as such a hardworking kid."
"That's right, you're only at this age, and you're already second-tier. If you know about our forgers, you'll be at the fourth-tier level at most. I don't know why you are in a hurry." A chubby senior brother leaned against his stove and spoke. .
Taking advantage of the absence of the master, the brothers are all slacking off, and of course they don't like to see a particularly diligent alternative.
"I promised a friend that I want to become a real forge. When I promise others, I have to do it as soon as possible." Xiao Chai's movements were smooth and smooth, and he was able to speak with ease.
"What kind of friend are you, why haven't we met?"
"I've done something that I'm sorry for him, and I don't have the face to see him now." Xiao Zhui stared at the magic weapon's unique glossy test item that gradually appeared in his hands, "But I now know that he lives near here. One day, When I become a blacksmith and am qualified to make a handy weapon for him, I will go to him and apologize."
"Oh, this doll is quite strong." Senior Fatty Brother reached out and rubbed his head.
"If we want to talk about the top blacksmith, we also need to push Qilin's Master Wen. The design of Qilin's head Xin Ziming and his forging ability, I don't know how many artifacts have been produced together," another senior brother excitedly began to popularize magic According to the news made by the device, "The 'Frost' on our City Lord Jiang's hand is from Master Wen's hand. Since we have the 'Frost' City Lord Jiang, our strength has doubled."
"Speaking of Frost, I remembered the battle two days ago. Did you find that... He didn't even have a sidearm, nor did he wear armor, and he just faced the tenth-order monster directly." He When he said that, he deliberately lowered his voice and carefully said three words Ye Peitian.
"Shh. Don't mention his name, I heard that he is hiding in Spring City. Didn't he appear in this black street before?"
Several older brothers had witnessed the battle outside the city gate a few days ago. Ye Peitian, the human demon, almost single-handedly resisted the terrifying monsters in the middle and late tenth order, which made them both in awe and awe.
At this moment, he accidentally mentioned his name, and everyone was a little bit concerned. I looked around carefully, for fear that the demon with a fierce name would suddenly pop out from that corner of the house.
There was a lively chat, and no one noticed that a young man passed by on the river bank not far from the door. He was holding a long plum blossom branch in his hand. With a silver-white covering, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he walked past the door softly and calmly.
Ye Peitian walked on the sparsely populated river bank,
He slowly stopped and looked sideways at a dim alley by the roadside, "Come out, see each other and save each other's troubles."
After waiting patiently for a while, a man and a woman finally walked out of the shadow of the alley. The man's young and domineering face was shrouded in the light and shadow of the alley. And behind him was Yu Nian holding a huge blood-red sickle.
"Sister Qianxun, does she know your identity... Ye Peitian." Jiang Xiaojie said.
When he said this, he was not sure that the Lin Fei in front of him was the Huangsha Emperor.
But in the moment when the man in front of him was silent and stagnant, he instantly confirmed the answer in his heart.
"Well, she knows everything about me." The man from Chu Qianxun said lightly.
Jiang Xiaojie's heart became a mess. Ever since he guessed Lin Fei's true identity, he took Yu Nian, who was the most capable of fighting in the team, to observe for a long time, but found that the real man and demon were completely different from what he imagined. Not only did he not have any The legendary perverted and violent, even in Jiang Xiaojie's opinion, is too gentle and kind.
He helped the weak around him intentionally or unintentionally, sometimes making Jiang Xiaojie suspect that his guess was just a misunderstanding.
At this time, Jiang Xiaojie's mood was very contradictory. He felt that this huge hidden danger should be expelled from his base, and because he fought side by side twice and rescued each other, he couldn't help but feel grateful to this man and cherish each other. Thought, and even had some mentality of wanting to make friends with sincerity.
Jiang Xiaojie is still undecided, Yu Nian's head has come out from behind him, "You plum blossoms are so fragrant, can you join me?"
Ye Peitian stretched out his hand to separate a plum blossom and put it into Yu Nian's hand.
Perhaps because of his young age, Yu Nian is not afraid of this demon, and is even curious about his past.
"Brother Lin Fei, I've heard about you," Yu Nian said, "if I had suffered from you, I might want to take revenge on the whole world. Why are you still so good? Saved our whole city. ."
"Maybe it's because I took pretty flowers from someone else?"
Ye Peitian put his eyes on the plum blossom branch in his hand, the pink and white petals bloomed in the cold winter, and the faint fragrance circulated between his fingers.
"Are there flowers?" Yu Nian was curious.
"What I got is more than darkness and pain. There is a person who put one of the most beautiful flowers in the world into my hands. When you hold beautiful things in your hands, you can naturally give people a fragrance."
Holding thorns in your hand will inevitably hurt others, holding flowers in your hand, you will learn to give roses to others.
In the cemetery at the Kirin base,
A woman holding a white chrysanthemum stood silently in front of a tombstone. The photo on the tombstone was a man with a hearty smile.
Few people know that the founder of the Kylin Corps is buried here - Feng Chengyu, the head of the Kylin Corps who died at the beginning of the apocalypse framed by the villain.
Chu Qianxun silently looked at the familiar photo on the tombstone. In another world, she and Feng Chengyu met in a small town called Hulu Town. They became close friends and helped each other for a long time.
But in this world, the life of this friend has ended in the town of Hulu where it started many years ago, and he has no chance to see his voice and smile again.
Destiny is so unpredictable, but there are always some wonderful coincidences. Jiang Xiaojie, who passed away shortly after leaving Hulu Town, is now alive and flamboyant in his own life.
Chu Qianxun sighed, wiped away a tear that had slipped down his cheek, and bent over to place the flowers in his hand in front of the tombstone.
"You know Lao Feng?" A man's clear voice sounded behind her.
Chu Qianxun turned around and saw Xin Ziming, the current head of Qilin, who was standing not far away.
Xin Ziming's face was not good, and his eyes were full of scrutiny and suspicion.
"Yes, he is a friend of mine, I came here to see him." Chu Qianxun said.
"You lie, Lao Feng and I have been classmates since elementary school. I don't know any of his friends."
Xin Ziming's eyes narrowed, and in his heart he had already begun to speculate on the purpose of this woman's appearance. Maybe she was deliberately meeting him in such a place, thinking that she could gain some unknown purpose.
Chu Qianxun knew what kind of person Xin Ziming was. This man was thoughtful, quick-witted, suspicious and suspicious.
But Chu Qianxun was not afraid of him. She was too familiar with this former friend to be in awe. In another world, they also became familiar with each other from a battle of mutual suspicion.
Chu Qianxun folded his fingers and began to count, "I heard Cheng Yu say that you were so beautiful in elementary school that you were often bullied by the boys in your class. Although you didn't say anything, you were with him at night. We went to steal the boy's homework and hid it, so that he was punished by the teacher for copying it 20 times. When you were in junior high school, your children grew up and became popular with girls, and you often received love letters from girls, but Banhua's letter was written to him, not you, and made him feel very proud in front of you for a while. The two of you in high school..."
"Cough, enough." Xin Ziming interrupted her, stretched out his hand and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, showing a rare embarrassed expression, "He even said this, where did you meet?"
Chu Qianxun: "I don't have to lie to you, I do know Cheng Yu. But besides seeing him this time, I really want to ask you for help. I want to entrust you to help me design and build a weapon. Of course, I will pay for it. You can order it."
She untied a long wrap that was tightly wrapped in a cloth bag on her back, and uncovered a corner of the white branch-shaped demon body.
"This is?" Xin Ziming took two steps forward, looked at it carefully for a moment, and was surprised, "Is this a tenth-order demon body?"
"Yes, it was cut from the monster that invaded Spring City a few days ago. I would like to entrust you to design a long sword suitable for the use of control system power users." Chu Qianxun took out a small bag of demon seeds at the same time, and a He and the demon body handed it to Xin Ziming's eyes, "This is the deposit. The forge hopes to invite Master Wen, the first forge of your unicorn, to make it."
"This is a tenth-order demon body, which is rare in the world. Do you know its value? Do you really feel at ease and leave it to our unicorns to make it like this?"
Xin Ziming's eyes came out from behind the reflective lenses. As the actual head of the Kirin mercenary group, he is very aware of the reputation of his team. As long as there are enough interests, he will turn his face ruthlessly, and he will not fail to do anything.
The girl in front of her smiled and said naive and ignorant words easily.
"Of course, I definitely trust you."
It's a pity that he couldn't hear Chu Qianxun whispering in his heart,
If you want to steal it, I can only ask someone to come and take it from you. I hope you don't get scared by then.
