Marquis of Grand Xia

Chapter 1348: blacksmith

Views:

Weicheng, a simple wooden house, in the wooden house, the hearth is beating, dispelling the coldness of the cold night.

The two people who came from afar, perhaps coincidentally met in Weicheng, and temporarily hid in a wooden house to avoid the cold and rain.

There is only one bed in the room, there is no doubt that tonight is another sleepless night, at least for Ning Chen.

Gentleman's demeanor, many times, Ning Chen is somewhat somewhat, especially in the face of a seemingly weak woman.

Maybe she was tired, Yun Man leaned on the head of the bed and fell asleep after a while.

Ning Chen stood in front of the window, watching the light rain outside, gradually becoming a little lost.

Coming to the realm of the gods was not what he wanted, because it was difficult to go back because he came.

However, he had to come.

Wuyutian seems to be a simple name, but, judging from the jealous attitude of the Moon God, this Wuyutian is not ordinary power.

To regain Xin Yu's soul, he must become stronger.

This ancient city is full of wonders. A teacher or a blacksmith who you meet at random may have been a world-famous peerless powerhouse.

Enlightenment is not easy. The people here may have stayed in the city for a thousand years, or even longer.

His way, there is indeed a problem.

If he does not give up his demon body, he will not be able to set foot on the imperial road in a short period of time. The trouble of not having both fish and bear's paw makes his heart no longer calm.

He knows that this is not a good thing. If the Dao Heart is unstable, there will be problems with his sword.

But knowing and doing are always two different things.

In meditation, in the ancient city, the long and cold night gradually passed, and in the east, when the sky was about to dawn, the light rain stopped.

However, the sky in Weicheng is still not clear, and the clouds are dense, as if it will rain again at any time.

The door of the house was pushed open with a creak, and Ning Chen walked out, looking at the still dim town, thinking about it, and preparing to make a paper umbrella by himself.

In the small town, materials can be described as poor, few people do business, and most of the people are basically self-sufficient. This strange town is out of tune with the outside world.

Ning Chen searched for a long time in front of the door and found wood and bamboo knots.

Maybe it's been too long, and the wood has been a little rotten. Fortunately, the toughness of the bamboo joints is still good, and it can barely make an umbrella.

Ning Chen took out a small knife, sat in front of the door, and began to cut wood.

After a while, the rib of the umbrella was probably formed, Ning Chen fixed the cut bamboo, then got up and looked around for oil paper, or something that could be replaced.

"What are you looking for, son?"

I don't know when, in front of the door, Yun Man stood still and asked.

"Oil paper, I want to make an umbrella."

Ning Chen replied casually.

Yun Man looked around and said, "It doesn't seem to be here, I'll borrow it from the next door."

After speaking, Yun Mansui turned and walked towards the blacksmith shop next door.

After a while, Yun Man walked back, holding a piece of oil paper in his hand and handing it to the former.

"The girl is smart."

Ning Chen took the oiled paper and praised with a smile.

Yun Man smiled lightly and watched quietly, without saying much.

Ning Chen sat in front of the door, carefully tying the oil paper to the umbrella rib.

For the first time in thousands of years, Ning Chen made an umbrella with his own hands. Looking at the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

On the side, Yun Manshui chuckled secretly, apparently disapproving of the appearance of the oil-paper umbrella made by someone.

"Why, doesn't it look good?" Ning Chen looked back and asked.

He thinks it's okay!

"Not bad." Yun Man smiled.

"I think so."

Ning Chen got up and looked at the day when it might rain again at any time. After thinking about it, he handed the oil-paper umbrella to the woman in front of him and said, "Send it to you, it can be used when it rains."

"no, I'm fine."

Yun Mansui quickly waved his hand to refuse, and said, "I don't like going out, I can't use this umbrella, you should use it yourself, Young Master Ning."

Ning Chen glanced at the umbrella in his hand regretfully, and asked again, "Really?"

"It's really not necessary."

Yun Mansui nodded affirmatively.

"All right."

Ning Chen put away the umbrella and smiled, "By the way, Miss Yun, I haven't had time to ask you, what are you coming to Weicheng for?"

"Enlightenment."

Yun Mansui replied as a matter of course.

Ning Chen looked at the woman in front of him with some surprise, and said, "The girl also came to understand the Tao?"

"Why, can't you see it?" Yun Man said with a chuckle.

"That's not it."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "It's just that the girl has a peaceful mind, she doesn't look like a person with a confused mind."

"Maybe it's fake?" Yun Man said with a smile.

"That girl's acting ability is too shocking." Ning Chen sighed.

"Okay, let's not talk about me, what about you, why are you here?" Yun Mansui asked softly.

"Dao's heart is unstable, come here to find a solution." Ning Chen said bluntly.

"Since you know that your Taoist mind is unstable, why don't you meditate and stabilize your Taoist mind? Why did you travel thousands of miles to come here?" Yun Mansui asked.

"The girl's words always make people speechless." Ning Chen said helplessly.

"Am I wrong?" Yun Man said with a smile.

"Perhaps."

Ning Chen said softly, "I just stayed in one place for too long, and I couldn't find a solution after thinking hard for many years, so I came here to try my luck."

"You are the same as the uncle next door. He thought the same way nine hundred years ago."

Yun Mansui pointed to the blacksmith shop not far away and said, "However, he doesn't seem to have figured it out yet."

"Ah."

Ning Chen chuckled and said, "Miss Yun, has anyone ever said you, you are really a different person."

He met yesterday, and the impression the woman in front of him gave him was that he was weak and gentle. After a few conversations today, he realized that the first impression can sometimes be deceiving.

Yun Man smiled sweetly and said, "Of course someone has said that, in my opinion, Young Master is also a different person."

Ning Chen smiled and didn't say more, this woman is not simple.

When the two were talking, the door on the opposite side opened with a creak, and a middle-aged man walked out, dressed in a white scholar's robe and holding a bamboo slip, one could tell at a glance that he was a scholar.

Ning Chen moved his eyes, looked at the person who came, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

This should be the teacher teacher that the young man said yesterday.

On the opposite side, the teacher saw the two people in front of him and nodded in greeting.

Ning Chen returned the salute with a kind smile on his face.

"It came yesterday?"

The teacher opened his mouth.

"Um."

Ning Chen nodded.

The teacher looked at the woman next to him and asked, "Wife?"

"no."

Ning Chen smiled and said, "By chance, we are friends now."

The teacher nodded and said, "I'll go to lecture first, and I'll talk when I come back."

"Please." Ning Chen said politely.

The teacher nodded politely and walked away.

"when!"

"when!"

"when!"

At this time, in the blacksmith shop next door, the sound of iron hammering began to be heard, one after another, monotonous and harsh.

With the sound of the blacksmith's hammering, the whole small town began to come alive. People performed their duties, teaching teachers, farming, and curing diseases. No one affected anyone.

Ning Chen stood in front of the house, looking at the various states of the small town, his mood gradually calmed down.

Next door, a woman came out with a ready-made farm tool and placed it in front of the house, waiting for a buyer.

In the house, the fire was beating, and the bare-armed man was beating the iron block in his hand with a hammer, and he was not tired.

The woman set up the farm tools, and when she was about to enter the house, she saw two people not far away, with friendly smiles on their faces, and said, "I haven't had breakfast yet, let's come together, I just happened to be doing more."

Ning Chen and Yun Man looked at each other, and at this moment, they both felt a little hungry.

The blacksmith shop was very simple. When the two came in, the man was still working. The woman set the dishes and looked at the two of them, smiling and saying, "Sit down and eat, I've left a meal for your eldest brother, he won't be able to eat it for a while. "

Ning Chen and Yun Mansui were a little embarrassed and sat down, looking at the simple food on the table, their stomachs were hungry.

This magical town always makes people forget that they are warriors.

"Eat, don't be polite."

The woman sat on the side, brought some dishes to each of them, and said with a gentle expression, "There are not so many rules here, so I will eat at the same table as you, so don't dislike it."

"What's wrong with my sister, it's us who disturbed you."

With a bright smile on Yun Mansui's face, he said.

"This child is not only beautiful, but also has a sweet mouth."

Lifetime elder sister, shouting to the woman with a smile on her face and a good mood, said.

Ning Chen secretly gave a thumbs up to the woman beside him. He felt that his time to flatter him was enough. He didn't expect that a strong middle would be a strong middle hand, and a mountain was taller than a mountain.

What a woman cares about most is always her age. Miss Yun's sister shouted, but he couldn't say it anyway.

Not far away, the man grinned, looking very simple.

Seeing the man's smile, a strange look flashed on Ning Chen's face.

If it wasn't for the young man in Tsing Yi who entered Taoism with tea yesterday, he would have believed that this blacksmith was an honest and down-to-earth man.

The food was very simple, but the taste was not bad. When Ning Chen and Yun Man were almost full, the man finished his work and ate at the table.

"Brother Li, thank you for your hospitality." Yun Man said with a smile.

"Should be."

The man answered honestly and said with a smile, "Listening to your conversation, they should all be enlightened people. What, isn't the path of cultivation going smoothly?"

"I'm okay, I'm just curious, come and play, the young man beside me is probably not going well." Yun Man said with a smile.

"Ha ha."

Ning Chen smiled bitterly, this girl's mouth is really poisonous.

"Xiu Jian?" The man asked, looking away.

"Yeah." Ning Chen nodded.

"Killing swordsmanship?" The man asked again.

"Um."

Ning Chen nodded again.

The man was silent for a long time, and then said, "Proving the Dao by killing will disturb the body, and in the future, it will be difficult and dangerous. I advise you to cultivate his Dao."

"That's too late."

Ning Chen lightly sighed, "I still have important things to do, and I don't have time to modify other ways."

"The sword can be a gentleman's sword or a slaughtering weapon. I don't want you to give up kendo completely, just make some changes in kendo." The man said seriously.

Ning Chen pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head and said, "It's too late." The man sighed softly, and said, "Since it can't be changed, let's make a way. There is no need to worry too much about right and wrong in the world."
