The counterattack of the villains

Chapter 72 Uncle Wang, if you can talk, say a few more words

Li Mu and his siblings were sitting on the river beach downstream chatting, and the women washing clothes upstream were also chatting happily.

A woman who was beating clothes with a hammer and stick, looked at the three people sitting by the river beach, then winked at the other woman beside her, and said with a smile: "Hey, look, that Mr. Li I seem to hit it off with Xingzhu and Baiming!"

After the woman looked at it, she also smiled, and said: "Young Master Li is really handsome, I have never seen such a handsome man before!"

The locals don't know how to speak official Chinese when chatting with each other, and the women feel bold and generous when they listen to the Luxi accent.

Shunzi's mother echoed: "The key is to be born with a chivalrous heart and a refined and easy-going temperament. You said that it would be great if he could become our son-in-law in Guangji Town."

All the women looked at Mrs. Ruan happily, and the meaning was obvious.

Madam Ruan said with a smile: "Mr. Li is a person with great abilities and great ambitions. Judging by his manner of speaking, he must come from an extraordinary background. My Xingzhu family is not so lucky."

Shunzi's mother said: "That's not necessarily the case, Xingzhu is the most handsome girl in our ten miles and eight villages, and she has a pleasing temperament, so it may not be impossible to attract Mr. Li."

"That's right, if you can recruit Mr. Li as your son-in-law, you and Master Ruan will enjoy the blessings!"

Every word you say to me among the women is trying to persuade Mrs. Ruan to recruit Li Mu as her son-in-law.

Hearing what everyone said, Mrs. Ruan couldn't help being moved.

After thinking for a while, she said with a smile to the women: "Okay, okay! I'll talk about this matter later when I find out what Mr. Li has to say, so as not to make everyone look bad."

……

Half an hour later, the children all went to the reeds, changed the wet clothes on their bodies, and let the mother wash them off.

Ruan Xingzhu also changed into dry clothes. After wiping his wet waist-length hair with a dry handkerchief, he loosened it casually and let it dry in the scorching sun.

Ruan Xingzhu, who didn't wear the hairstyle of a girl from the Song Dynasty, if she hadn't been wearing an ancient costume, Li Mu would have thought she was a modern person in a trance.

After the women washed their clothes, they each carried wooden basins and barrels and prepared to go home.

Madam Ruan went over to say hello, and Li Mu led the horse and followed them to Guangji Town.

Guangji Town is named after the Guangji River, and it is just beside the Guangji River, less than one mile away.

The so-called one side of the water and soil support the other side of the people, Luxi's body is tall, and the people of this town are martial arts, most of the male townspeople are tall and strong, and most of the female townspeople are tall and slender.

And because he lives by the river, he likes to swim. It can almost be said that he grew up in the water. While he is tall, his body lines are also exquisite and beautiful.

When he arrived in the town, Li Mu asked Ruan Xingzhu, "Sister, is there a blacksmith shop in the town?"

Ruan Xingzhu said: "Yes, Uncle Wang from the blacksmith shop is good friends with my father, what does Brother Li want to fight?"

Li Mudao: "Earlier, Baiming reminded me that realms belong to realms. Having a sword is better than not having one. I want to get a long sword."

When Mrs. Ruan heard what Li Mu said, she turned her head and said to Ruan Xingzhu, "Then Xingzhu, take Mr. Li to your Uncle Wang's! Baiming will go back with us first."

"Okay, Brother Li, come with me!"

Li Mu smiled at Ruan Baiming, "Can Baiming know how to lead a horse?"

Ruan Baiming laughed and said, "I can ride a horse at the age of nine!"

Li Muxin handed over the horse to Ruan Baiming, and asked him to take it back first, and followed Ruan Xingzhu through the alley between the two buildings, and walked to another street.

Madam Ruan was also secretly happy to see that Li Mu didn't look out at all.

Even if he couldn't become his own son-in-law, it would be very good to befriend such a gentleman.

In the northeast corner of the town, there is a blacksmith's shop far away from the residential area and the downtown area, and the sound of tinkling iron can be heard from a long distance away.

There is a thatched shed outside the shop, and the stove and iron felt are under the thatched shed.

Ruan Xingzhu brought Li Mu to the outside of the thatched shed, and saw a burly man with a naked upper body, thick muscles, and arms thicker than Ruan Xingzhu's thighs, holding a piece of iron embryo with iron tongs in one hand, and a hammer in the other, very regular Knock it down.

It's not about beating any utensils, it's just knocking out the impurities in the iron embryos to improve the quality of the iron embryos, and it can be stopped at any time.

"Uncle Wang, are you busy?"

Seeing Ruan Xingzhu, blacksmith Wang stopped forging, grinned and said, "Xingzhu, have you brought your father's apprentice here again?"

While speaking, he looked at Li Mu for a while, and admired secretly in his heart, this young man looks really talented, he looks like a scholar, how could he come to learn from old Ruan?
Ruan Xingzhu shook his head and said, "Brother Li is not my father's apprentice, he is here to buy a sword, not a sword."

Blacksmith Wang's eyes lit up, and he jokingly said, "Isn't it your father's apprentice? It's true. This young man is handsome and noble. How could he learn from your father? Is he a future son-in-law?"

When Ruan Xingzhu heard this, her pretty face blushed, she stomped her feet and said coquettishly, "Uncle Wang, don't talk nonsense."

"Cough..." Li Mu clenched his right hand to his lips, coughed, and said without changing his face, "Uncle Wang, if you can talk, just say a few more words."

"..."

Both of them were taken aback, Ruan Xingzhu didn't realize the meaning of these words for a while.

Blacksmith Wang was taken aback for a moment, but immediately came back to his senses, and burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha... This son is really a wonderful person, interesting, interesting, hahaha..."

Ruan Xingzhu also understood, her pretty face turned even redder, and her chest throbbed violently like a deer bumping around.

Li Mu didn't seem to notice her shyness, and took a few steps forward calmly, walking in front of Uncle Wang, putting Ruan Xingzhu behind him.

Not being able to see each other's faces in this way can also make her less embarrassed, so as not to scare her away. This is called a detail.

Li Mu smiled and said to Blacksmith Wang, "Uncle Wang, do you have finished swords for sale?"

Blacksmith Wang laughed and said: "If others come, there will be none, but you will have it when you come, young master. I got it by accident more than ten years ago, and I can make a good sword."

"It's a pity that since Xingzhu's father came to our town, everyone went to learn knives, and no one bought a sword anymore. This sword has been left like this until now."

"I have been raising it for more than ten years, and I have already cultivated this sword. I wanted to keep it as a family heirloom for myself."

"Who knows that I am nearly forty, old Wang, and I haven't even asked for a daughter-in-law, and I don't know who to pass it on to. It seems that the young master is destined for this sword, so I will sell it to the young master."

"Young master, wait a moment, I'll go get it right away."

Li Mu was overjoyed when he heard this, he never expected that this seemingly rough blacksmith would have the patience to raise a sword.

Generally speaking, as long as a sword is cultivated persistently for five years, the sword can be cultivated.

This sword, which has been raised for more than ten years, is enough to be passed down as a family heirloom even if it is made of ordinary steel.

The raising of swords mentioned here is naturally not the kind of sword raising in the fantasy world, similar to the kind of raising swords that Xu Fengnian raised twelve flying swords.

The ancient method of raising a sword is mainly divided into two steps: wiping the sword and coiling the sword. The fundamental purpose is to make the phosphonium and calcium in the sword body surface to the surface of the sword body.

After the sword has been cultivated, the body of the sword is naturally covered with a layer of carbon-like material, which can keep it from rusting and corrosion forever.

If Blacksmith Wang really has cultivated that sword, then Li Mu will not be stingy with money.
