Fengqi crabapple

Chapter 16

"Ling Xue, Ling Shuang, you came just in time!" Xie San said happily; "Just in time, you will help Mingze build a bamboo cart in the afternoon."

Only then did everyone see clearly that the shorter one was a heroic and graceful girl.Everyone got to know each other and went back to the house together.

When they rested separately, Haitang hesitated for a moment and asked Xie San: "Your Majesty, my house is small and there may not be enough room for you. Can Ling Shuang come and live with me?"

Xie San smiled and nodded: "If you don't tell me, I will ask you the same thing. In the future, I will ask Ling Shuang to follow you. You are both girls, so it will be more convenient." Haitang also nodded, went over to hold Ling Shuang's hand, and held her Go to the back room.Aunt Feng said: "It's not enough to live in our house, but there's still an empty room. Come over if you don't mind it being shabby!"

Ling Xue smiled and said: "When the weather is nice, I usually like to sleep on the roof and bask in the moon!" Xie Sanpi looked at him with a smile: "It seems that your injury is fine, but your skin is itchy again."

At this time, Feng Mingze came over with a machete: "The bamboo cart maker is coming!"

Ling Shuang quickly said to Haitang: "I'll go help first, and I'll find you when I get back."

Haitang nodded repeatedly: "Master and I are going to make pills this afternoon, see you at dinner!"

Feng Mingze took Ling Xue Lingshuang to the bamboo forest behind.Ling Xue asked curiously: "What kind of knife is this? It feels like the blade is longer than a normal machete?"

"Good vision," Mingze nodded and said, "It's my improved Mongolian scimitar. When used, it is attached to the saddle and uses the impact of the horse to directly cut the enemy next to it. It is best used when charging into the enemy's formation."

Ling Xue and Ling Shuang looked at each other and couldn't help laughing!Just now the prince said that this Feng Mingze was a genius craftsman. Now it turns out that it is indeed a genius to chop bamboo with such a charging machete.

Ling Xue took the scimitar and took a closer look. The handle was straight, slightly longer than what she held in her hand. There were holes on it, probably for stringing ropes.Ling Xue was also a person who liked new things, and soon she and Feng Mingze had a heated discussion. By the time they reached the bamboo forest, the two of them were already very familiar with each other.

"Brother Mingze, let's not talk about it. In the future, if you have new weapons, brother, I will be the first to help you try them out. Your good things can also be taken to the army for promotion. Our prince just wants to re-install the border defense. The prince said: The border residents also want to People, if the country is safe, the country is safe~" Ling Xue imitated the prince's tone and said.

Mingze broke the bamboo strips and smiled: "Your prince is a man who cares about the world!" He couldn't help but think to himself that maybe his drawings could really be entrusted to the prince.

Ling Shuang also said: "Actually, the four of us are poor children saved by the prince. The prince put us in the military camp for training. In the past year, the prince left the palace and opened a mansion on his own, so we returned to him."

When Mingze heard this, he glanced at Ling Shuang quietly and saw that the girl's brows were calm and her eyes were clear, which confirmed the prince's kindness towards others.

After a while, an eight-wheeled bamboo cart was ready.The bamboo forest was not far from the waterfall. Ling Xue and Mingze were pulling the rope in front, Ling Shuang was sitting on the bamboo cart, and several green teenagers were laughing all the way as they ran towards the waterfall.In the cave, Ling Yun had already returned. He made a rough estimate and bought eight horses, which were already waiting in the back mountain.The entrance to the cave in the back mountain is very secret. Even though Mingze drew a map and taught him how to read the signs on the top of the mountain, it still took him a long time to find it.

As soon as Ling Yun saw Ling Xue and Ling Shuang coming in, he went over and punched Ling Xue on the shoulder affectionately: "Master Ling Xue, are you still lazy at home after your injury?"

"What an injustice! Master Ling Yun! I knew you were playing with weapons here, and I would crawl over here even if I crawled!" Ling Xue turned around and winked at Mingze.Ling Shuang looked at the two of them and couldn't help but laugh.

"Did this king ask you to come for a spring outing?" Xie San said coldly.

Ling Yun looked around: Why didn't Miss Haitang come?No wonder things have changed.

With the bamboo cart, he quickly pulled the packed weapons and medicine to the back mountain. Ling Yun left with the horse team and headed for the appointed dock.

A large area of ​​the cave was vacated, leaving only grain, straw and some medicinal materials. It was ventilated and breathable, and there was no shortage of water from the waterfall. It was no problem to temporarily hide 200 or [-] people. It was really a good natural place to hide.

Mingze packed up the sundries and walked to Prince Duan, who was standing outside the waterfall. He knelt down with his hands clasped and said, "Mingze, thank you, Your Majesty, for rescuing the siege! Mingze is a tool-making idiot. He has practiced his skills for many years and made many forbidden weapons. But I have no intention of rebellion. Entrusting it to the prince today has relieved my worried heart."

"Without courtesy," Xie San smiled gently: "You are a talented person, you are a genius, and I will give you a heavy responsibility. You are good at martial arts but not arrogant, and you defend your territory without losing it. You are not for the court, but for the country."

"Mingze understands!" Mingze was a little excited. He had never heard such words as "not for the court, but for the country" that fascinated him, and it came from the mouth of a royal prince!

Mingze made a decision immediately, took out a stack of silk from his arms, unfolded it and handed it to Prince Duan: "These are my two designs for the magic weapon. Mingze is willing to dedicate them to the prince, and is also willing to follow the prince to make contributions!"

Xie San didn't take the silk picture from him, but grabbed his raised wrists, pulled him up, and looked at him with bright eyes: "I will definitely live up to your trust!"

Ling Xue and Ling Shuang also walked over excitedly. Ling Xue stepped forward and gave Mingze a hug. Ling Shuang smiled with tears in her eyes and called out: "Brother Mingze!"

The setting sun shone on the bodies of the four young men and women, dyeing their faces golden, adding a bit of heroism.
