The Trick of Longevity, Paper-cutting Becomes a Spirit

Chapter 58
The next day, early in the morning, Lu Qian returned to Wangjiaying.

Passing by the blacksmith shop, he unexpectedly found that the blacksmith opened the door surprisingly early today.

The blacksmith was cleaning up the booth, and seeing Lu Qian, he couldn't help frowning, and said with a wry smile: "I said young man, although I said it was three days, but you came too early, right?"

Lu Qian was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that today was the day he made an appointment with the blacksmith to pick up the sword.

It has been three days since he came to Wangjiaying.

Lu Qian walked over and asked, "Is that all right?"

The blacksmith shook his head and said, "Not yet. Well...you can come back in an hour or two."

While talking, he took out a sword embryo from the shelf and showed it to Lu Qian.

Lu Qian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come back later."

There was no one on the street in the early morning.

Lu Qian returned home, took a nap first, and then started his daily homework.

Paper cutting, boxing.

After a long time, it is still a bit boring.

Now Lu Qian's boxing strength and boxing skills are not bad.

It's just that the physical strength and reaction speed are still lacking.

This directly led to his lack of body skills.

And this point, even the potential point can't make up for it, it can only depend on how long you practice, and——

Drugs.

Now that the problem of herbal medicine has been solved, the importation in the future should be greatly accelerated.

When the work is over, it is already time.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lu Qian put away his good things, picked up the cage and went out.

When going out, the main things are basically carried with you.

After going out, Lu Qian found that there seemed to be more people on the street.

At first, he didn't care about it, and went straight to the blacksmith shop.

In front of the blacksmith's shop, it became lively, with several guests gathered around the door.

These people seem to be very familiar, and they don't seem to be from Wangjiaying Village.

Then, Lu Qian came to his senses.

Today is sixteen, the day to go to the market.

It seems that these are people from other villages who came to order and repair farm tools while going to the market.

Lu Qian didn't rush over, but stood under a tree, waited for a while, and didn't step forward until everyone had left.

Looking up and seeing Lu Qian, the blacksmith bent over and picked up a sword from the shelf, put it on the blacksmithing case, and at the same time turned around and told his little apprentice:

"Go get the scabbard."

Lu Qian was also polite, picked up the sword directly, weighed it, and played with it casually.

The sword is two feet seven inches long and less than three fingers wide. It is still heavy in the hand.

The hilt is just a very ordinary wooden handle with some thin threads wrapped around it, without much decoration.

However, for the blacksmiths in the village, it is not bad to be able to do this.

The sword is sharp enough.

The blacksmith raised his head and asked, "How is it?"

Lu Qian nodded and said, "Not bad."

The blacksmith smiled "Hey" and said, "This sword can be regarded as my proudest work. Here, I will give you another scabbard."

Lu Qian took the scabbard, and saw that it was just carved out of an ordinary piece of wood, and it wasn't even painted, let alone carved with any patterns.

However, Lu Qian didn't care about these, put the sword back into the sheath, inserted the sword into the cage on his back, and said, "Thank you very much."

"Good to say."

Lu Qian turned around and was about to leave.At this moment, suddenly a person came from behind and patted him on the shoulder.

Lu Qian looked back, blinked, and then recognized that it was Wang Zuwang.

Wang Zuwang didn't know where he came from, he gasped a little, and after taking a few breaths, he said, "I've found you. Master Xiao Lu, why are you hanging around here if you don't guard your own stall?"

Lu Qian laughed twice, and said, "Come out to do something, isn't this just about to go back?"

Wang Zuwang said anxiously: "I want some festive paper-cuts for decorating the new house. You know this, just watch it, cut more, go get it, I'll get it from your stall in a while."

Yo, still a big deal.

Lu Qian originally didn't want to sell the stall today, but after thinking about the few copper coins left in his pocket, he decided to take the business on.

Although he has a lot of paper in his home, it will be used up in a month, so he has to earn back the money to buy the paper first.

This Wang Zuwang is really short-tempered, and his efficiency is quite high. How can he find a suitable family for his daughter so quickly?
Lu Qian clasped his fists in both hands, and expressed joy first: "Leave it to me, I will pick the best pattern and cut it, and I will definitely satisfy you."

But he felt relieved in his heart: "I like customers like this, and this time I can clean up those stocks."

Lu Qian has been cutting more and selling less in the past month, so he can save a lot of goods.

Wang Zuwang sighed, waved his hands and said: "Don't say congratulations. Hurry up, I'm in a hurry, we will get married tonight."

While talking, he strode away and disappeared at the corner of the street after a while.

Leaving Lu Qian standing alone, a little dazed:
"The custom here... getting married at night?"

Is this because the wedding is not lively enough?
Lu Qian was puzzled, but he was from Zhaojiatun, and it was not easy to ask people, so he pressed the matter down, got up and walked towards the market street.

Today's market street is more lively than usual, and there are many more stalls.

But fortunately, those who often go to the market to sell their stalls have their own fixed stalls, and no one goes because he is not there, so they grab them.

As soon as Lu Qian put away his things, Second Sister Wang's Qingling laughter sounded in his ears: "Hey, brother Lu, you came early enough, I've already helped you get rid of three waves of business."

"what?"

As soon as Lu Qian looked up, he saw Second Sister Wang walking over with her slender waist like a water snake, holding a piece of fried cake in her hand.Obviously, she also went out on a short errand just now, no wonder there was no one in the empty tofu stall.

After hearing this, Lu Qian couldn't help saying annoyedly: "Really? Well, you won't let them wait for me?"

Second Sister Wang gave a "cut" and said, "Who knows if you will come today?"

While talking, Second Sister Wang had already moved up to Lu Qian, almost biting his ear and teasing him, "Why, you just got married and can't get out of bed?"

This Second Sister Wang, why does she like to dawdle on people so much?
But fortunately, her mouth doesn't smell bad today, and it's even a little sticky and sweet.

Lu Qian didn't bother to move away, and let her stand next to him, saying: "I am a poor boy, how can anyone marry me?"

Second Sister Wang looked up at his fair face, looked at it carefully for a while, and then her eyes bent into crescent moons with a smile:
"Is there no girl who wants to marry you? Or, let the second sister accept you?"

While speaking, she actually stretched out a pale finger and lifted Lu Qian's chin.

……

Is he being molested?

In front of the people on the street, Lu Qian really couldn't bear to hide his face, especially since many people on the street had already turned their heads to look over.

The old man who repaired the shoes opposite them raised his head, stared, opened his mouth, and stared at them without blinking.

A wrinkled face was full of envy and jealousy.

"What are you looking at, old man, why don't you repair your shoes?"

"Ah...Xiu Xiuxiu..."

"Hurry up, I'm leaving in a hurry."

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Being watched by so many eyes, Lu Qian couldn't help blushing and took a step back.

The second sister Wang didn't care about these gazes at all. She giggled, but she didn't approach Lu Qian any more.After laughing, she started eating her fried cakes again.

After eating the remaining half of the fried cake in a few bites, Second Sister Wang wiped the oil on her clothes, and flipped through Lu Qian's paper-cut without notice.

After flipping through a few photos, she looked up at Lu Qian and asked, "Why didn't you come to the market the last two times?"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his dexterous tongue, made a circle, rolled it lightly, and rolled the fried cake residue hanging from the corner of his mouth into his mouth.

Seeing this scene, even Lu Qian couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat.

This Second Sister Wang obviously doesn't look very old, but she has a mature charm, her whole body is full of delicate charm.

Even if he knew that she might not be human, he couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment when he saw the seductive action just now.

However, Lu Qian immediately woke up, and then a mysterious smile appeared on his face, and said: "I have received a big job, so naturally I can't take care of going to the market."

He originally wanted to look more natural in order to cover up his momentary gaffe.It's a pity that the expression he made was somewhat exaggerated.

Hearing Lu Qian say "big job", Second Sister Wang's eyes lit up immediately, she leaned over again and asked:

"Oh? I heard that Master Zhu is very generous. Is this true?"
