Chapter Nineteen Qiu Da Helps
It was indeed Lan Ge'er outside the door.
Lan Ge'er said in surprise: "I used the small stone to knock on the door, how do you still know it's me?"
I smiled and said, "Secret."
Seeing that Lan Ge'er was holding a bunch of things in his hand, I asked, "What are you holding?"
Lan Ge'er raised her head and said, "If you don't tell me, how can you know I'm here? I won't give you these treasures."
When I heard it was a treasure, I immediately thought of the armor and dragon claw sword that Uncle Qiu mentioned, and was so happy that I wanted to take it to take a look.
But Lan Ge'er didn't let go. I said: "Everyone's footsteps are different. The little stone is high and the other is low, and the little swallow is jumping."
Lan Ge'er didn't believe it: "Don't fool me, I don't even have any sound when I walk. Do you say it or not?"
My face turned red, and Lan Ge'er really guessed it. In fact, I smelled Lan Ge'er's unique fragrance. As my hearing and vision improved, my sense of smell became amazingly keen. This not only helped me increase my skills in cooking, but also made me extraordinary in smelling fragrance to recognize people.
Within a few dozen meters, I could clearly distinguish the different fragrances on Lan Ge'er, Xiao Shenyan, Liu Ping and others, and of course, the odor of little stones and Ling Xiao.
However, I was embarrassed to say that I could recognize her by smelling Lan Ge’s fragrance, and that I would be beaten.
I said seriously: "You walk silently and prove that this is your characteristic."
Lan Ge'er was half-doubted, but he didn't ask anything. Instead, he carried the pile of things in and said, "For tomorrow's safety, try this." As he said that, an object was brought out from it. Looking at Lan Ge'er's laborious appearance, I felt that the thing must be a very heavy thing.
"Ah, why are there two iron plates?" When I took it, I realized that they were two large iron plates connected by cloth rope and fishing line.
Lan Ge'er sighed: "There is nothing else good, I can only make do with this one. Although it is ugly and bulky, something really happens to save my life, it's not."
"Does the Iron Axe Gang really dare to kill people?" I asked idiotically, and Brother Lan gave me a blank look. There is no need to answer. I already have the answer: Yes, very good!
I looked at the two black and rough iron plates and couldn't help but feel speechless. If I hadn't seen the treasure of Qiu Blacksmith's family, I might not have felt anything, but after seeing the armor, I now see how awkward the iron block is.
I tried it on my body, it was as hard and heavy as I was against two door panels. It was so uncomfortable that I felt so uncomfortable, and my pants were still falling down.
I immediately expressed my unwillingness to wear this, but Lan Ge'er firmly disagreed and asked me to wear it.
I had no choice but to know that Lan Ge'er was doing it for my own good, so I had to compromise.
I thought about it and finally persuaded: "If there are really people from the Iron Axe Gang tomorrow, if we don't work, let them go. Of course, I will give them the conditions and strive for the best conditions."
Lan Ge'er once again denied my thoughts, but said that it had been arranged.
I sighed and knew there was no hope, so I stopped talking. In fact, Lan Ge'er was thinking well. The Iron Axe Gang's usual style would not give me the opportunity to give me conditions. He would only use thunder means to kill and seize wealth.
I also know the common practice of the strong in this troubled times.
Brother Lan looked at me, maybe because he denied it too firmly just now, and was afraid that I would be too unthinkable. After all, if I disagree, I will face the greatest danger.
Lan Ge'er said softly, "Don't worry, we will definitely ensure that you are safe. If..." Lan Ge'er hesitated for a moment and said, "If, tomorrow, uncle Qin and Aunt Qin cannot protect you, just do what you said." Of course, this is perfunctory and psychological comfort.
I know that Lan Ge'er did not completely disagree with the terms of negotiation, but did not have the opportunity to negotiate.
Then Lan Ge'er said again: "If things go well tomorrow, I will teach you kung fu in the future. If you are born in troubled times, a big man will not be able to do it if he doesn't have the kung fu."
When I heard that Lan Ge'er was willing to teach me kung fu, I couldn't help but feel happy. Although I didn't know what Lan Ge'er's kung fu was like, I heard Ling Xiao, Xie Jianfeng and the others say many times that Lan Ge'er's kung fu is great. It probably is not as good as Blacksmith Qiu, but it should be more than enough to teach me.
I agreed happily now.
Brother Lan knew that I would get up early tomorrow and prepare a lot of things, so he told me to go to bed early. Before leaving, he was worried and told me: "If we can't handle it tomorrow, don't care about anything. It's important to escape first to save your life."
I nodded and said yes, then Lan Ge'er left with great worries.
I know that Lan Ge'er cares about me very much, and knows that he is very young and it is quite difficult to bring a large group of children. If he had not been born in troubled times, like Lan Ge'er, he would have just been in the third year of junior high school. Now, he has to bear so much.
Alas, life is not easy.
No words all night.
The next day, I got up early in the morning and arranged everything, and Uncle Qin and his wife came early. Their dresses were different this time, and they were no longer like the dresses that went out to hawk. Instead, they were dressed in tight clothes from top to bottom, showing great spirit, but their eyes were full of solemnity. Obviously, they felt that this trip was not easy.
Although the two of them were pushing the car as before, they saw that there was nothing else on the car, only two long objects wrapped in cloth. Needless to think about it, they should be self-defense weapons.
After I greeted them, I had to wear those two big iron plates with the help of Brother Lan. It was so uncomfortable that I couldn't wear them alone.
Just as I put it around my neck, someone knocked on the yard door.
Ling Xiao opened the door first. He came in front of him with a tall, strong body and handsome young man. On his slightly red face, he had thick eyebrows and deep eyes, a high nose bridge, and a bowed lips. When he looked up, his eyes flashed brightly, which made the whole person feel heroic.
I looked up and was amused, the person who came was not someone else.
It is the eldest son, Qiu Dalang, in front of Uncle Qiu.
I hurriedly bowed and greeted me: "Brother Qiu, why did you come early in the morning?"
Qiu Dalang was the chef who I had married a while ago. He cooked a lot of fancy cooking at that time, which won praise from all the visitors. I still had no money to get the commission. Qiu Dalang has always been concerned about this and is very close to me.
Qiu Dalang strided into the yard, and did not answer me first, but hugged Uncle Qin and his wife, and they also clasped their fists to return the favor. It was not because Qiu Dalang was young, but instead showed joy in his eyes, diluting the sorrow just now.
After the meeting with Uncle Qin and his wife, Qiu Dalang smiled and said to me: "Brother Yong, my Ada specially called me home yesterday, saying that he had misunderstood Brother Yong. So, early this morning, I specially asked me to bring your things over. My Ada also gave me a special order, let me do nothing else in the past few days, and just follow you to have a meal." As he said that, he took a large package from behind and handed it to me.
Qiu Dalang was kind, but I knew it very well. I couldn't help but be grateful to Uncle Qiu for his deep affection. Not only did he send the Baojia from yesterday, but he also specially asked Qiu Dalang to protect me from safety.
I took Qiu Dalang's package, and as soon as I bought it, I felt that it was indeed the armor and the dragon claw knife.
I was afraid that Dalang would not know that we would face the Iron Axe Gang today, which was most likely to be powerful, so I said: "Brother Dalang, I have something to say that I might face the Iron Axe Gang today."
Qiu Dalang smiled and said, "If it weren't for Ada's sake, I would have thought I'd be the director of the Iron Axe Gang two years ago." The meaning of this is that I really didn't take the Iron Axe Gang seriously.
It’s really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers! He is so young and energetic.
At this time, Uncle Qin took two steps forward and said, "Now, with Qiu Dalang, the number one master in our poor alley, coming forward, we can be safe."
Qiu Dalang hurriedly said, "Uncle Qin, don't joke about his nephew. I don't dare to be the best master in the alley. With Uncle Qin and his wife here, I just help you. I'm a big shot. I often say that you two are masters."
When Uncle Qin and his wife heard Qiu Dalang say this, they were extremely happy. Although they said they didn’t dare to take it or not, they were already smiling like a bright chrysanthemum.
Lan Ge'er also bowed his fists and thanked Qiu Dalang. Qiu Dalang hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "You're welcome, you're all helping each other."
Seeing that it was getting late, everyone did not dare to delay. Qiu Dalang wanted to help me take off the iron plate, thinking that I wanted me to change into the armor, but I thought of something and handed the armor in the package to Lan Ge'er and asked him to put it on.
Lan Ge'er naturally saw that the unsightly-looking clothes and armor were extraordinary, but her face turned red, but she refused to accept it and said, "This is the clothes for you. I must be big when I wear them. It must be ugly, so I won't wear them."
I still have to explain, but Lan Ge'er ignored my explanation and pushed me into the room and let me change it. She didn't wear it any longer.
There was no way, I went into my room with Qiu Dalang, took off the iron plate, and changed into a treasure armor.
Aunt Qin outside the door said to Lan Ge'er, "Brother Lan, I think Brother Yong is really good to you. I will give you such good things first, so I'm very close to you."
Brother Lan said shyly: "Auntie, you're joking, no way you think, we are all good brothers."
Aunt Qin smiled meaningfully and said, "Yes, yes, they are all good brothers and sisters."
Just as I was about to hear how Lan Ge'er answered, Qiu Dalang beside me asked: "Brother Yong? You really haven't practiced Kung Fu?"
I said frankly: "If you have practiced some skills to strengthen your body, but they are all things that are not useful. I really haven't practiced the skills you mentioned."
Qiu Dalang asked again: "You have practiced sword skills before?"
"No, I haven't touched any other knife except the kitchen knife." This time I answered without any vagueness.
"You really read my sword technique twice yesterday?" Qiu Dalang asked in surprise.
"It should be right. I feel that Uncle Qiu was trying to slow down yesterday, so that I could see clearly. I thought it was quite interesting, and I didn't think it was particularly difficult." I said casually.
"Ah, ha, ha, it's not particularly difficult?" Qiu Dalang's voice was embarrassed.
I looked at him in confusion, and Qiu Dalang said ashamed: "Brother Yong, do you know, how long has it been taken to see that Daddy's sword technique been completely condom?"
I shook my head.
Qiu Dalang stretched out three fingers and I hurriedly said, "Three days?"
Qiu Dalang shook his head, and I couldn't believe it and said again: "It won't be three months, right?"
Qiu Dalang shook his head again, and I breathed out, "I said I won't be able to do it for three months. You can understand it three times, right? It's just one more time than me, and there's nothing."
As soon as these words were said, Qiu Dalang covered his face and didn't say anything for a long time. I wondered why he was, but Qiu Dalang said with a flushed face: "I've been watching it for three years! Three years!"
I was suddenly shocked and couldn't figure out how it took three years to understand that set of sword techniques.
However, Qiu Dalang's words surprised me even more.
"It's a boast that I can see it clearly for three years. In fact, I spent three years and only watched it. After learning it for another five years, I haven't fully learned it. I only learned three sword techniques from it. Since then, I have never made any progress." Qiu Dalang said in a shocking manner.
"Ah, is it that difficult? Then if I say this, I definitely did something wrong yesterday, otherwise there would be no difference." I thought that it must be because I understood it wrong, otherwise it would be impossible for Qiu Dalang to practice for eight years but failed. I read it twice and saw it thoroughly. It must be that I learned to split.
Qiu Dalang shook his head and said, "No, you did not practice wrong. Yesterday, I, Ada, told me that you not only have a thorough understanding of everything, but also learned almost the same. Your swords have already developed Shen Yun. Compared with my Ada, the difference is almost nothing except Huo Hou and common sense of holding a knife. Alas, the difference between people is really too big. No wonder Ada wants to pass on this set of sword techniques to you."
"Ah, that's true?" I can't believe it.
"Yes, I can't believe it either, but Ada won't lie to me. By the way, Ada said, he blamed you wrongly and thought you had skill. But after you left, he thought about it repeatedly and looked for Uncle Sun, and then realized that you are really smart and a martial arts genius. So Ada asked you to go to him after you finish your work today, and he still has something to tell you." Speaking of this, Qiu Dalang said with emotion: "It's amazing, Brother Yong, you are so young, it's really not easy. In the future, you should teach me more brothers."
