Volume I: Chapter 21: Temptation
Long Qi walked out with a teapot and a water cup, drank a few sips, sat back on the chair, shook his body, and found the most comfortable position: "Let me introduce to you, his name is Tong Fei, but this guy is stupid and stubborn, and he will definitely not be able to fly in this life." ”
Su Tang smiled and looked at the blacksmith named Tong Fei, who was still concentrating on the work in his hands, ignoring Long Qi's provocation.
"Don't underestimate him, his skills are very good, in our Miaodao Pavilion, he is definitely in the top three. ”
"Miao Dao Pavilion?" asked Su Tang puzzled.
"There is Miaodao Pavilion in Changshan County, there are Sihailou in Kaiyuan County, and even the famous Tongtian City has Evil Tiger Terrace, in fact, the essence is the same, but the name is different. "Long Qi said.
"Then we are Miaodao Pavilion...... What do you usually do?" asked Su Tang.
"What else can I do?" Long Qi said very seriously: "Helping others is fun and doing good deeds." ”
Are you...... Su Tang has a black line in his head, is there still five talks, four beauties and three loves? !
"Ahem......" Long Qi coughed dryly, and said with a smile: "To put it bluntly, it's just eight words, take people's money and eliminate disasters with people." ”
Su Tang understood a little, and some didn't understand: "Brother Long, can you be more specific?"
Tong Fei became famous at the age of nine. Long Qi changed the topic: "He was a little unlucky, because his wife was watery and improper, and he hooked up with a lot of adulterers outside, which is nothing, but one day, his mother couldn't stand the bewitchment of an adulterer, and strangled his father to death at night." ”
He saw the tragedy happening, silently endured, and finally waited for the opportunity, his wife and the adulterer were drunk, and after making out of love, he slept like a dead pig, he turned out the hammer that had been prepared, and secretly touched it. Long Qi suddenly paused: "Xiao Zhenzi, I remember, the time of the two things...... After an interval of almost four months, you must not be idle, either secretly practicing your strength, or practicing the martial arts technique that I don't know where the Dao came from, right? Huh...... You knew how to read when you were nine years old? Hehe, your father has high expectations for you, and with your family background when you were a child, he is willing to give you money to let you read and write. ”
The blacksmith named Tong Fei was still expressionless, and Su Tang frowned slightly, although he didn't understand the other party, he could realize that this was definitely the biggest pain in the blacksmith's heart, Long Qi was too cruel, not only ruthlessly uncovering the scars, but also using this kind of thing to make fun.
"Completely unleashed...... He smashed hundreds or thousands of hammers in one go, did he know the meat sauce? It didn't sound like much, but the neighbors who heard the movement and the soldiers who rushed to hear the news either fainted on the spot or ran to vomit wildly. Long Qi said: "Later, he came to Changshan County incognito, starting from a blacksmith apprentice, until now, Ha Lu Ha...... I bet he chose this profession because he was addicted, you see his expression, how serious, how serious, immersed in it and unable to extricate himself. ”
The blacksmith named Tong Fei stopped his movements and looked thoughtfully at the exuberant fire.
"Come, Su Tang, sit here, you're tired too, drink saliva. Long Qi pointed to the side: "Today, you guys get to know each other first, and you will have a lot of time to deal with each other in the future, so let's get to know it slowly." ”
Su Tang walked over slowly and sat beside Long Qi.
The blacksmith named Tong Fei suddenly raised the hammer again and smashed the iron felt in front of him viciously, his force was extremely strong, and Su Tang could see that the handle of the hammer had become a little bent.
Syllable...... A piercing roar exploded violently, Long Qi was startled, the cup in his hand turned over, the tea spilled, he covered his ears with his hands, with a painful look on his face, and shouted: "Little Zhizi, what are you doing?!"
Su Tang's performance was much stronger than Long Qi's, and although his ears were also shocked and roared, his hand holding the teacup was as if it were made of iron, motionless.
The blacksmith named Tong Fei turned around abruptly and stared at Su Tang, who had already entered a state of alert, but his expression was very flat, and he looked back at the other party quietly.
After a moment, Tong Fei's gaze fell on Su Tang's hand holding the cup, smiled, slowly turned around, put down the hammer casually, and said sullenly: "He is better than you." ”
Long Qi was still complaining, and when he heard this, a smile appeared on his face again: "So, have you passed the level?" Then he looked at Su Tang again and said, "Okay, let's go." ”
Until Long Qi and Su Tang left, Tong Fei didn't look at them a second time, standing on the street, Long Qi was silent for a moment, and said softly: "It is worthy of being a great honor, this ability to recognize people is far from being comparable to us, hehe...... To be honest, I didn't expect you to get his approval. ”
"This is important?"
"Of course. Long Qi replied lightly.
"What the hell does he do? is he really a blacksmith?" Su Tang asked, when Tong Fei stared at him, the evil aura gushing out of his eyes was extremely thick, fortunately, now, if it was the original Su Tang, he would have been paralyzed by fright.
"Are you asking day or night?" said Long Qi.
"What about the day?"
"Hammer iron. ”
"What about the night?" Su Tang already had a faint answer in his heart.
"Hammer Man. Long Qi said: "But sometimes he also hammers people during the day, and this kind of thing is not accurate." ”
"He's ...... Killer?" Su Tang felt more and more that this Miao Dao Pavilion was most likely an organization with the nature of an underworld.
"Killer? Long Qi smiled, then stopped, frowned, and said, "I was only happy for you to pass the test just now, and I forgot one thing." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Why did he say that you are stronger than me?" Long Qi said: "No, I have to go back and ask him!" After speaking, Long Qi turned around and walked back.
Su Tang couldn't cry or laugh, just a word, is it worth being so serious?
After walking a few steps, Long Qi turned back and said, "Forget it, it's not too late to find him in the future, it's still important to get down to business." ”
Su Tang breathed a sigh of relief, and Long Qi said as he walked: "I deliberately told Tong Fei about the past just now, do you think I'm a little excessive?"
"It's a bit excessive. Su Tang replied very frankly.
This answer was a bit unexpected by Long Qi, he glanced at Su Tang in surprise, and sighed slightly: "I have to do this, because I can't live up to the Great Venerable's entrustment, and because I have to make him trust you completely." ”
"What does this have to do with trust?"
"You'll understand later. ”
"What if he just doesn't trust me?"
"Sooner or later, you're going to get into big trouble. "Long Qi said.
Su Tang didn't ask anymore, silently followed Long Qi's side, not for a long time, Long Qi pushed open a black courtyard door, stepped into a small courtyard, he was very familiar with this place, did not go to the main hall, and then walked through the corner gate and walked towards the backyard.
Su Tang glanced around, although this place was a little remote, it covered a large enough area, and the owner of the yard should have a very high status in Changshan County. Following Long Qi into the backyard, Su Tang suddenly heard a pleasant bell in front of him, he couldn't help laughing, he thought he would see a character who was as full of evil as Tong Fei, but after seeing the scenery, he realized that he was wrong, the owner here is definitely a gentleman.
Under the eaves, there are also rows of wind chimes hanging in the huge bamboo forest, and when the wind blows, countless wind chimes will sway with the wind, making a moving natural sound.
There is a pavilion in front of the bamboo forest, in addition to the stone table and stone chairs in the pavilion, there is a reclining chair, there is a small wine jar on the stone table, the wine jar is opened, and the mellow aroma of wine comes to the face with the sound of wind chimes.
There was a man on the recliner who looked sideways at the sound of footsteps, and then smiled gently.
"Let me introduce, this is Su Tang, and I will leave all my affairs to him in the future. Long Qi said, and then sat on the stone chair very naturally: "His name is Xiao Buregret, this ...... This guy is very mysterious, where is he from, what has he done before, and what he has done without me after he met me, I don't know anything about it, I really don't know what he does, he often disappears, but he can always be there when I need him the most, so I can forgive him. ”
Xiao Buregret smiled and nodded to Su Tang, Su Tang also nodded, and then walked to the bamboo forest, curiously fiddling with a wind chime, the material of the wind chime is very strange, very light, like wood, and very hard, like stone, it is very smooth to the touch, it has been carefully polished, Su Tang looked at it for a long time, and he didn't see what material it was made of.
"I've always thought, and still do, that this guy is definitely the most damned person in Changshan County. Long Qi showed a smiling look and said slowly: "Su Tang, be careful, it's the first time I've been here, and I like these wind chimes very much, but when I leave, I can't wait to chop my hands off, I hope you won't be the same as me." ”
"What?" Su Tang looked at Xiao Buregret in confusion.
"This guy has an extremely disgusting fetish, every time he kills someone, he makes a wind chime. Long Qi looked at Su Tang's face: "That's right, all wind chimes are made of human bones!"
Before Long Qi's words fell, Xiao Buregret also turned his head and looked at Su Tang.
In Su Tang's field of vision, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed dramatically, the melodious ringtones turned into creepy ghosts, and the warm sunlight disappeared in an instant, turning into a thick darkness, so that he couldn't see anything.
In the blacksmith shop, hearing a sudden loud noise, Su Tang only instinctively entered a state of alert, and now, he clearly sensed the danger of death, and the two spirits in his brain were shining at the same time, and endless killing intent gushed out from the depths of his soul.
But it was only a short moment, the sun appeared again, and the bell returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened just now, just his delusion.
"It's made of human bones. Su Tang said softly: "However, the voice is very good. After speaking, he also gently shook the wind chime in his hand.
Seeing that Su Tang's expression had not changed, Long Qi was a little disappointed and a little incomprehensible, Xiao Buregret smiled at this time: "Are you really ready to quit?"
