() Looking from a distance, a tall city stands in the distance, with two characters "Pingyang" displayed directly above the city gate.

"Sir, miss, we are going to Pingyang County." The groom drove a gorgeous carriage and said to the man and two women in the carriage.

"The county town is really lively." The man sighed as he opened the curtain in the car and saw the scene outside through the car window. This man was Liu Tian.

There was a little girl about ten years old sitting in the carriage, chattering in Liu Tian's ear non-stop, it was Ling'er. There was also a girl wearing simple clothes sitting next to Ling'er, the girl just didn't smile.

Talk too much.

The road into the county town is an official road. Before approaching the county town, you rarely encounter pedestrians.

"Sir, miss, we have arrived at the county town. We don't know where we are going?" The groom was an old man named Du. After arriving at the county town, Old Man Du asked.

When Ling'er saw the busy street, she immediately wanted to get off the carriage and go shopping.

Liu Tian followed her and got off the car together.

"Uncle Du, you have been tired from the journey, so I will give this carriage to you so that you can have a way to make a living in the future." Liu Tian said calmly.

"It is a blessing for the old man and his daughter to be rescued by the young master. How can we accept that we are willing to be slaves and maidservants in this life, serving the young master?" The old man quickly declined.

The girl on the carriage was Old Man Du's daughter. What happened was that the father and daughter were on the road. Because their daughter was beautiful, she encountered a young man who was teasing her. Liu Tian happened to meet her and rescued the father and daughter.

, Old Man Du temporarily became a coachman.

This carriage was not owned by Liu Tian, ​​but was snatched from that young master.

"By the way, this carriage is not mine. The young master is probably coming in the direction of the county. If you use it, you may get into trouble, so you might as well sell it." Liu Tian thought for a while and said.

"Yes." Old Man Du responded quickly.

Ling'er and Liu Tian just wandered on the street, with Old Man Du and his daughter following behind.

Old Man Du and his daughter followed, but Liu Tian had no choice. He had politely refused just now, but he didn't expect that Old Man Du would accept death and have to repay his kindness as a slave.

Liu Tian's identity is not easy to explain to himself. What would happen if Mr. Du and his daughter knew that he was not a hero at all but a bandit.

However, since their father and daughter are following, let them follow first. It is estimated that their father and daughter do not have a place to live in the county. Fortunately, the good man will do it to the end and take them with him for the time being. He will explain to them later when they get to Canglong Ridge.

I have no choice but to leave it at that.

"Brother Liu Tian, ​​this is so fun." Ling'er picked up the rattle from the roadside stall and shook it, making bursts of crisp and sweet sounds.

"Young master, buy one for this lady. This rattle is very fun." The vendor hurriedly promoted the product.

Liu Tian directly handed over the money, and the vendor was busy thanking him. Ling'er took the rattle and ran to the next place. She hadn't gone down the mountain for a long time, and she finally went down the mountain once. Everything she saw was new.

Although Liu Tian didn't have enough money to buy medicinal materials, he still had a few thousand taels. It didn't cost much to buy these gadgets.

Ling'er was at the front, Liu Tian was paying the bill behind him, and Old Man Du was pulling the carriage, picking up Ling'er's new gadgets and putting them back into the carriage.

After a full day and walking around more than a dozen streets, Linger just stopped.

"Brother Liu Tian, ​​I'm tired, can you carry me on your back?" Ling'er stared at Liu Tian with her dripping eyes and said coquettishly.

"Ghost girl."

Liu Tian touched Ling'er's nose and squatted down.

"Brother Liu Tian, ​​it's so nice." Ling'er's mouth seemed to be covered with honey, and she immediately gave Liu Tian a sweet kiss.

This was very frustrating for Liu Tianle. Ling'er was not heavy to begin with and was as soft as a bone. Coupled with the faint fragrance of her body, Liu Tian didn't feel tired even while carrying her on his back.

Not far from Liu Tian, ​​two people wearing dark robes came out of an inn. One of them was shocked when he saw the bell on Liu Tian's back.

"Senior brother, look quickly, is that Miss Ling'er?"

The person who was called Senior Brother looked more mature and middle-aged. When he saw Ling'er behind Liu Tian, ​​he trembled all over and said: "You keep an eye on them, I will report to the elders immediately."

While they were talking, Liu Tian walked over to this side.

However, Liu Tian did not notice them and instead entered the inn to stay.

After playing with Ling'er for a day, Ling'er was finally tired and opened three rooms. Liu Tian and Old Man Du shared one room each, while Ling'er, who was still young, shared a room with Old Man Du's daughter Qiaoyun, who could just take care of Ling'er.

Son.

In addition, Liu Tian also asked Old Man Du to sell the carriage to avoid getting into trouble.

After the four of them finished eating in the inn, they went back to their room to rest. Ling'er fell asleep early after a day of running around.

Liu Tian did not rest, and asked Qiao Yun to take care of Ling'er. He walked out of the inn alone, and his destination was the blacksmith shop in the county town.

Naturally, he went to the blacksmith shop to make weapons. One reason was that he didn't have many flying knives on his body, and another reason was that he got a piece of cold iron from Tie Yidao. It would be best if he could make a cold iron weapon.

As night falls, the bustling streets in the county are brightly lit and very lively.

"Blacksmith shop."

Liu Tian walked towards the blacksmith shop. He had been to the county town before, and many of the flying knives he used were made at a blacksmith shop in the county town.

Xu Ji’s Blacksmith Shop!

Liu Tian stopped at the door of a shop with two huge hammers that were as tall as a person. There were very few people on this street, and most of the shops had closed early.

"Clang!"

A crisp knock on the door rang, and Liu Tian stood at the door of the blacksmith shop and knocked on the door.

"Who." A rough voice came, and the door opened. It was a sturdy old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties. The old man was wearing a simple dress.

"Young master, it's you!" The old man held the lantern, saw Liu Tian's appearance clearly, and recognized him immediately.

Blacksmith Xu is a famous blacksmith in Pingyang County. Liu Tian's flying knife was made by him.

Not long ago, Liu Tian went down the mountain to build a batch of flying knives, so Old Man Xu was very impressed by him.

"Young master came to visit late at night, what's the matter?" Old man Xu clasped his fists.

Liu Tian took out a stone box from his arms and slowly opened it: "Master Xu, take a look at this and see if you can make it."

"Han Tie!" Old Man Xu exclaimed.

"Han Tie is a rare thing in the world. Although it is only the size of an egg, its value is less than ten thousand gold. I wonder where you got it from?" Old Man Xu sighed.

"This is not something you should think about. Just ask whether it can be built." Liu Tian's voice became colder and he didn't say much.

"It's the little old man who was reckless." Old man Xu quickly apologized. He also met Han Tie and was in a hurry, so he asked directly. Seeing Liu Tian's appearance, he immediately said: "It can be built, but because Han Tie

The volume of iron is too small, so I'm afraid I can't make weapons that are too long, I can only make short swords, daggers and the like."

"Okay, let's make it into a dagger." Liu Tian sighed. He was used to using flying knives, and it was not bad to use a close-up dagger. Finally, he asked: "How many days will it take to complete?"

"This will take some time, at least three jiuri. The most exquisite part of the cold iron is the cold yin energy. If you can't force this cold yin energy into the weapon, I lack some materials here, so I have to purchase them.

The furnace can only be started when everything is complete." Old Man Xu said.

"Okay, Han Tie will stay with you. I will make twenty flying knives by the way. The style and size are the same as the previous batch. I will pick them up together in ten days." Liu Tian nodded and said, leaving Han Tie behind.

Turn around to leave.

"Sir, wait a minute." Old Man Xu called.

"By the way, I have to pay you a deposit." After saying that, Liu Tian took out the silver from his arms.

"Young master misunderstood, I want to ask, this cold iron is worth a lot of money, I'm not afraid of you, so I ran away with the cold iron?" Old Man Xu said with a smile.

"Haha." Liu Tian laughed, "It's good to have a life, but whether you have a life flower or not depends on your luck."

Old man Xu's expression changed. Looking at Liu Tian's leaving figure, old man Xu sighed in his heart. He knew that this young man was not simple. From the first time he saw him, old man Xu remembered this person.

Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Old Man Xu turned his gaze to the cold iron, his eyes fiery. This piece of cold iron was one of the rarest materials he had ever seen in his life. It had to be crafted well, and it was unlikely that it would become a famous artifact.

After Liu Tian left Xu Ji's blacksmith shop, he wanted to return to the inn.

Halfway through, he discovered that a mansion not far from him was bursting with flames and the screams were heartbreaking.

"That is?"

Out of curiosity, Liu Tian hurried over and happened to see the door plaque of this mansion falling down. The word "Su Mansion" was clearly written on the door plaque.

Liu Tian's expression changed. Could it be that the Su family was once captured in Canglong Ridge?

When Canglong Ridge was besieged by Tie Yidao and other ruthless bandits, the Su family was the culprit!
