[Qin] Qin Shi

Perhaps it was because he was frightened by the big bear, or because he finally realized that the forest he had been in all this time, even though Handan, the capital of Zhao, was not absolutely safe, Zhao Zhengyi did not come to Bai Shu again for several days. .

Regarding this matter, Bai Shu was not as indignant as the system: "I thought you didn't like that guy." Bai Shu squatted down, pulled out the arrow with the bronze dagger shot that day, tapped the bronze on the tip of the arrow lightly with his fingers, and listened to the humming of the dagger.

'After all you've been calling him Xiaohong? '

[Should I like him? 】The system let out a sharp cry in Bai Shu's consciousness, 【That kind of guy who eats and drinks yours, although not enough to use yours, but you give far more than what he returns, is the legendary guy. vampire right! 】

Bai Shu twitched the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help correcting the system's description: "The word vampire is not used in this way... Forget it, it can be used in this way, but you realize that guy is still a child, right? A real vampire." ·child? '

The system hummed reluctantly.

"Thank you very much for your bias towards me, but look," Bai Shu held up the bronze dagger in the air after wiping off the dirt on the front, feeling the shadow cast by the dagger on his eyes, "isn't this what I got What about the reward? It's late, but it won't fail to come. '

In this era dominated by cold weapons, the country's casting of pig iron has been extremely mature.But also because it is the main component of weapons, the casting of copper and iron in various countries is extremely strict. If there is no household registration or channels, it is difficult to obtain iron tools.

Bai Shu has been greedy for cold weapons for a long time, but due to his black household status, he can only stay at the level of 'borrowing'.Although when he rescued Zhao Zheng, he asked for the dagger to frighten the big bear, but he hasn't seen Zhao Zhenglai for five or six days, which shows that the dagger is nothing to him.

As his younger brother, he doesn't look like a child from an ordinary family either.

He hid the dagger in his bosom, threw the branches that were used for binding on the ground, and turned to the opposite place from Handan: "Keep your eyes on the long term, cutie." 'He is not the only one like Zhao Zheng.

Just like the stars surrounding the moon, there are countless villages lingering around Handan, the closest ones are only an hour or two away, and the farther ones are only half a day away.

So when Bai Shu entered the town, the sun was just over his head.

The children gathered outside the village did not know who saw Bai Shu coming out of the forest first, dropped the stones in their hands and ran towards Bai Shu.The other children were also affected, cheering loudly while running: "Brother Bai is here, brother Bai is here~"

"Xiao Bai is here," the farmer working in the field heard the cries of the little dolls, put down his hoe and greeted Bai Shu, "Would you like to have dinner at Uncle's house today?"

"That's great." Bai Shu opened his hand and firmly caught the two fastest rushing little devils, "I've been thinking about my aunt's meal for a long time, if I eat too much today, uncle won't nag me .” He showed two small canine teeth, which looked extraordinarily cute.

When the farmer heard his wife being praised, he was naturally happy: "Let your aunt kill the rabbit you brought over last time, and I'll have an extra meal today!" He responded with a smile, and told his son to run home to meet his wife send word.

Hearing that there was meat to eat, the little ghost naturally ran back happily, but he ran away in the blink of an eye.When the other children heard that other people's homes had meat, they were naturally not far behind, and pestered Bai Shu by chirping, hoping that he would change his mind.

"Brother Bai, come to my house, come to my house!"

"No, Brother Bai, come to my house. My eldest sister is still thinking about you."

Bai Shu, who was surrounded by a group of little ghosts, enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by stars: "Aren't you going home for dinner?" He shook his head, "I plan to teach you how to shoot birds after dinner. If you run out of strength, I will Don't teach it."

Having seen Bai Shu's all-out strikes before, the little dolls excitedly rushed forward to hook up with Bai Shu, and then ran towards the village hand in hand.

Bai Shu crossed his hands and stood on the spot, looking at the attitude of the little devils throwing away after use, annoyed and funny.

"That group of brats really like you." Taking advantage of this opportunity, the farmer packed up his things, put them on his shoulders and climbed up the relatively high dirt road, and handed a package to Bai Shu. "Stay at my uncle's house tonight?"

"Then please trouble uncle." Bai Shu did not refuse. He has no fixed place to live and he has grown up like this over the years. In the farming age where information and technology are underdeveloped, the relationship between people is simple and direct. It is also extremely good to be able to achieve Great Harmony.

Bai Shu, who is not a real child, naturally knows what to do to be more likable: "I sleep with my younger brother, my aunt has just started to conceive, and my younger brother is just at the age of trouble, if uncle believes me, these days I will Look at him."

"What are you talking about?" The uncle laughed loudly, and after seeing Bai Shu hugged the things well, he slapped Bai Shu's head with a slap, "You are also uncle, looking at your looks, whether you are good or bad, How can uncle not know. If he is half as self-reliant as you, uncle will rest assured."

Bai Shu grinned, responded with a smile to this kind of patriarchal modesty, and then casually mentioned other things: "Uncle, do you know if there is any reliable blacksmith around here?"

"Blacksmith?" The farmer who had known Bai Shu for more than two years didn't think much about it, "If you need anything, tell the village."

The folk customs are simple and simple: "I guess my household registration is about to drop." This kind of lie can come easily, "I think that when I have my own small home in the future, I will have to buy a writer's home anyway. If Doesn’t farming also need utensils?”

If you are buying a home, you really can't borrow it: "Xiaobai, where are you going?"

"Handan," Bai Shu said vaguely, "I found a way to become a book boy."

"Then you have to take your household registration and go to the official to go through the formalities." The uncle and Bai Shu muttered, "With permission, the blacksmiths are willing to forge iron for you, but if it is a small piece, more money will do. , who can’t survive these days, right?”

Bai Shu hummed, and said in agreement: "That's not true, so where does uncle usually fight from?"

"There is an old blacksmith in the neighboring village. He used to be one of the best masters in Handan City, but he seemed to have committed something later, and his arm was cut off, and he retired." Somewhat sighed, "The blacksmith in Handan City is really good. Good workmanship."

The farmer's face showed longing: "That is a craftsman who makes utensils for princes and grandchildren. The craftsmanship is first-class. I followed my father to see it when I was a child. Tsk, that utensil!"

Bai Shu was thoughtful: "That one-armed old widower in Liu's Village?"

"You've run quite far, kid." The man pulled out from his memory, and looked at Bai Shu amusedly, "Before your aunt told me that you ran to Liujia Village, I thought your aunt was joking. Be careful that one day you will be caught by the conscripts and take you to the north to be beaten."

"I'm so smart, so I wouldn't." A light flashed under Bai Shu's smiling eyes, "He's really that old widower, but I watched the children in Liu's village bullying him all day long. It's so bullying."

The man snorted, greeted the villagers who were coming towards him, grabbed the gap and explained to Bai Shu: "I don't know the details, but when Grandpa was alive, he always called him old cunning. He has no children. , if you really want to hunt something, hunt him some wild goods, he can talk about it."

Then things became interesting. A good-talking old widower was one of the best craftsmen when he was young. So what caused him to lose an arm and leave Handan in a state of embarrassment, but he never left this place? ?

It sounds like a man with a lot of stories.

Bai Shu nodded thoughtfully, and turned to chatting with the man about other family matters. It was just a short journey, and Bai Shu made it clear what happened when he was away for the past few days. : "So, the doctor came out and said that my aunt is pregnant with a female fetus this time?"

"That's right." Speaking of this matter, the man's face was stained with sadness, "It's not that uncle favors sons, but that raising a daughter is more worrying than raising a son these days."

"Uncle, even if you are marrying a daughter, it's still more than ten years. My brother didn't marry a wife before." Bai Shu joked, "It's too early to worry about it now."

The man is not the same as Bai Shu's worries: "Xiao Bai, do you know why uncle told you to go out and don't show your face?" As Bai Shu's frequent host, he has naturally seen Bai Shu clean and tidy. What a look.

Of course Bai Shu knew, but he wouldn't just express it honestly: "I don't know, but I know uncle won't harm me."

Hearing Bai Shu's trusting words, the man covered Bai Shu's head with his hand, and rubbed vigorously: "A few years ago, the third girl next door was taken into Handan as a girl just because of her figure. Now the five boys in his family are Married, but that girl has no letter, I'm afraid it's..."

He omitted the unlucky words behind, but no one can guess the hidden content behind.Looking up at the man's painful expression, thinking about the three-year age difference between the 'fifth boy who got married next door' and his elder brother, Bai Shu hummed, with neither sadness nor joy in his eyes.

The behavior of those sons and brothers in Handan is really becoming more and more ridiculous and out of tune.

"If it's really a girl, uncle don't want it?"

"Yes, why not, that's my child too." The man wiped his face, looked at his house not far away, and said firmly, "The big deal is far away from Handan, go to the south, go to the east, or else I just went to nest in the deep mountains and old forests. I don't believe that there is no place where my girl can hide in this big world."

Bai Shu smiled and rolled his eyes, but didn't answer.
