I felt uncomfortable being stared at by the Rasuk couple. Naturally, I no longer had the interest to continue reminiscing with Qiaxi. I originally wanted to leave, but under the warm greeting of Aunt Rasuk, I walked into the house and chatted for a while. Sit for a while.
The situation is stronger than the people. If I don't agree, no one will show me the way. It's windy and snowy outside, and I may not be able to stop even if I see it at night.
"Boy, come on, sit down, sit down, drink something hot to warm yourself up."
Aunt Rasuk's enthusiasm is a little overwhelming. It seems that she regards me as her potential son-in-law. If not for this, I still like the bold style of the barbarian. Compared with respectful titles such as elders, I prefer them. If you like these elders, just call me brat, or even brat.
After a while, a cup of steaming yak milk was served.
However, I always felt something was wrong about the location. It was a huge square wooden table. Chasi and I sat on one side, and the Rasuks sat on the other side, as if they were inspecting the son-in-law who was visiting us for the first time. Generally speaking, wouldn't it be better to have a square table with one person sitting on each side?
"Boy, I've heard that he's been very active recently, and the news has reached Harrogas."
Uncle Rasuk carelessly put a rhinoceros-like thick leg on the chair, grabbed a few slices of yak jerky on the table with his big hands, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said with a squeaking sound.
"What's up?"
I raised my head, glanced at this rude yet heroic giant, and lifted the cup in front of me. Yes, I lifted it up. The cup used by barbarians was as big as the water spoon we usually use. I weighed it. The portion size is as much as a large bottle of Coke in just one cup.
I've been thinking about it lately, I've done a lot of things to sell my integrity, maybe it's been publicized.
"You don't know? In the second world's Demon Fortress battle, you killed even the world's most powerful monsters. There were also some interesting programs on the Alliance God's Birthday. It seemed that you were responsible for them. In the bar, I hear these rumors almost every day" over and over again, and I can recite them by heart. "
"Hahahaha, it turns out that's the case. This is everyone's ridiculous praise, and it's just an exaggeration." The Demon Fortress was lucky that time, and the enemy was not at the level of world power. As for the God's birthday, it was even more Thanks to Grandma Akara, I just did what an elder should do. "
After listening to Uncle Rasuk's words, I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"What? It turns out it's not about selling moral integrity." Fortunately, the nickname of the harem elder should last for a while before it continues to evolve.
"Hahahahaha, you kid, why are you so polite in front of me? If you didn't do it, you didn't do it. If you did it, you did it. Everyone's eyes are bright. Don't you think you can judge for yourself?"
Seeing my modesty, Uncle Rasuk couldn't help but laugh loudly, and looked me up and down with satisfied eyes, as if to say, "This guy is okay. Although he is not big, he has strength and ability, but he is a little too polite." Bold.
What's going on with your son-in-law's gaze?
"I also heard about it when I was traveling abroad." At this time, Qiaxi turned his head, with a hint of shyness on his pretty and heroic face, and smiled sweetly.
"Especially in the days after God's Birthday, the streets and alleys are discussing your interesting programs, Elder Fan. If I had known this, I would have gone back to the camp."
At this point, she bit her lip and looked regretful for a moment, but then smiled with relief.
"However, it's great to hear from Elder Fan often, so that I can confirm that you are safe and sound."
"Thanks."
I feel warm in my heart for Qiaxi's sincere and heartfelt concern. There seem to be very few friends like Qiaxi around me. They are all as ungrateful as Lal Tiaozi.
"But that's not fair. You know I'm safe, but I don't know what you're doing and whether I'm safe or not." Seeing Qiaxi's honest and cute look, I couldn't help but joke with a smile.
"How can a little blacksmith like me be like you, Elder Fan, who is so praised in the Dark Continent and can hear about the situation at any time."
The tall beauty suddenly panicked and fiddled with the cup in her hand at a loss, feeling a little shy and uneasy.
It was just a joke at first, but I didn't expect that she actually answered seriously. Seeing Qiaxi's look, I felt a little sorry, so I comforted her.
"Don't worry, Qiaxi will definitely become a famous blacksmith in the mainland in the future. Rumors about you can be heard everywhere."
"Really...really listening?"
Qiaxi looked at me with a pair of bright eyes. Although she would continue to work hard for this even if others didn't tell her, it was a joyful thing after all that some people could agree with.
"I give up."
I was just about to answer, but Uncle Rasuk on the side took the lead, crossed his arms, and made an evaluation in the tone of an old-timer and a veteran.
"Who doesn't want to have an heir who can pass down his blacksmith shop from generation to generation, but I have been opposed to you doing this from the beginning, just because I don't think highly of you. Judging from my eyes as the leading blacksmith in Harrogas."
"Even if you say so, father, I will persist. How will you know if you don't try?"
Obviously, such conversations often happen between the father and daughter, so I saw Qia Xi’s accustomed and unmoved look of perseverance.
"Why can't Qiaxi become an excellent blacksmith?" I asked curiously.
"It's very simple."
Rasuk held out his thumb.
"If you want to be an excellent blacksmith, you need at least these five things: strength, patience, skill, talent and enthusiasm."
He was very sorry. He put down his fingers, leaving the last one, and sighed.
, "Qiaxi has all four things behind him, but strength alone is not enough. A blacksmith who lacks strength is like a warrior who cannot raise his fist. No matter how good the other conditions are, he will not be able to pass this level."
Rasuk kept shaking his head and sighed bitterly: "Actually, as long as Qiaxi has the talent to become a mercenary, he can improve his strength through experience and upgrades, but God made a joke to me. Qiaxi's mother and I are both halo Among the outstanding warriors of Gas, only Qiaxi doesn’t even have the qualifications to become a mercenary.”
"Look at your mouth, have you said enough?"
Seeing Qiaxi lowering his head sadly, Aunt Rasuke gave the careless and ignorant Uncle Rasuke a hard blow on the back of the head, and said with a glare.
, "It doesn't matter, what my father said is absolutely right. I've known about this for a long time, and I won't give up." Qiaxi gritted his teeth, raised his head again, and smiled.
"Why did I give birth to such a stupid daughter?" Aunt Rasuk looked at her daughter lovingly and secretly glanced at her.
Not enough strength?
I glanced at Qiaxi. In the eyes of ordinary people, she was tall enough. Although she was slender and not as muscular as other barbarians, she did not lack toughness and explosive power.
However, this is a human point of view. In the eyes of barbarians, she is like Lena. The difference between ordinary people is that she is slender and delicate, lacking the support of large muscles. She can even be described as sickly, as if she is weak when the wind blows. fall.
, "It's really strange. Logically speaking, my remaining children, Rasuke, should be tall and strong." Like me, Uncle Rasuke was looking at his daughter across from me in confusion. .
Look at his height, which is considered tall among barbarians. His muscles are as hard as steel due to years of exercise.
Aunt Rasuk sitting next to him is also tall and strong, but her exposed arms are covered with explosive muscles, which are as thick as my thighs. I think, in the aesthetics of barbarians, , Aunt Rasuk must be a rare beauty.
As for Qiaxi, I can only say that it really doesn’t look like the child born between these two people. Uncle and Aunt Rasuk, are you sure that Qiaxi is not the Amazon baby girl you picked up on the shore of a certain lake?
, "Anyway, I don't agree with you going down the blacksmith path. The most practical thing is to find a blacksmith son-in-law to inherit my blacksmith shop."
Rasuk had no choice. If there was such a thing as muscle potion, he would have to buy a few bottles for his daughter to drink even if he sold blood.
, "Father, this is the only thing I will never agree to!"
Although Qiaxi is a good daughter, she also has her own ideals and persistence, which even her father cannot control.
...Hmph, it’s okay not to marry a blacksmith. What do you think of Qualkek? If I go and talk to him, for my sake, he might nod in agreement. "
, "Didn't Qualkek already have two wives?" Aunt Lasuk interjected from the side.
"What's the matter? As long as a man has strength, it's normal to marry more than one, right, kid." Uncle Rasuk looked at me and said.
I:"……"
Is it better to shake your head or nod your head? If you shake your head, the three beautiful wives, personal maids, two queens, and a wild little sky fox in your home are not convincing at all, you bastard.
When he nodded, he seemed to be pushing Qiaxi into the fire pit again. It wasn't just a question of how many wives Qualkek had. Think about it, that guy was the strongest man in the barbarian race. He was almost four to five meters tall. , and Qiaxi is only a little over two meters tall. This is basically a combination of humans and animals. Uncle Rasuk, is there really nothing wrong with your brain?
Uncle Rasuk, who asked me a difficult question, was rejected by Qiaxi without waiting for an answer. Very good, it seems that Qiaxi still has common sense.
, "What's wrong with Qualkek? He is recognized as the most handsome guy among us barbarians." Uncle Rasuk was depressed, and his look was clearly a thunderbolt. It means you look down on him."
The most handsome man in the factory. With the body shape of Qualkek's siege beast, from the barbarian's aesthetic point of view, he is indeed the most handsome man.
Sweat broke out on my forehead. I can't complain about this, you bastard.
Moreover, my presence was so embarrassing, and the discussion completely turned into a family matter of the Rasuk family. Being in it as an outsider, I felt like I was resting my butt on a cactus.
Sure enough, I shouldn't have accepted Aunt Rasuk's invitation in the first place. Even if I continued to get lost, I would always meet one or two passers-by. I regretted it.
"Okay, okay, forget it if Qualkek can't do it. Really, he may not like you, you little girl who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth."
Rasuk looked helpless.
As for why I use the word 1 to make 1 to describe it? Because barbarians are not good at acting, except for Doug, of course, I can easily tell that Uncle Rasuk is acting.
With a smile on his face, it was clear that he had anticipated this development from the beginning.
In other words, the conversation just now was completely related to the fact that he might have even attracted Aunt Rasuk. The couple cooperated tacitly, one was the villain and the other was the hero, leading his well-behaved and honest daughter by the nose. Unreliable human purpose.
What is the purpose?
I started to feel a little uneasy, and my sixth sense sounded the alarm.
"If this is the case, there is actually a good choice."
Aunt Rasuke also joined in. Sure enough, she and Uncle Rasuke were playing a sex game, right?
, "Ahem, time..."
I felt that I had to do something and couldn't just watch an unpredictable conspiracy envelope me, so I coughed a few times, stood up and said, but was interrupted before I could finish my words.
"Oh, I saw you right, kid, you must be thinking the same thing as me." Rasuk, with quick eyes and quick hands, immediately slapped my shoulder with his big palm.
What he said, combined with my actions of standing up, seemed like I was following his wishes and asking Ying to do something.
"Daughter," I think Elder Fan is pretty good. "
Turning around, Rasuk squinted his big cow-like eyes and looked at his daughter. The aunt nodded desperately at the side.
I asked you, uncle, why are you so worried that your daughter won’t get married? Are you trying your best to push it out? In fact, as long as Qiaxi is willing, there are still many men who are willing to marry him, who is over two meters tall. Although a bit tall, it is actually easy to find human males who are equal to or even taller than her in the Dark Continent.
And with Qiaxi's beauty, even a man who is a little shorter than her would be willing to queue up if he gave up his little self-esteem. Of course, I will forget it.
"Eh...Eh?!!!"
Qiaxi was stunned for a long time, and then she let out a sound of surprise. She seemed to have never expected that her father and mother, who wanted to marry her off immediately, would actually point the final finger at me. No, it should be said that in fact, in the beginning, they He had already pointed his finger at me, but it was only revealed now.
"Elder Fan, I am not boasting. My daughter Qiaxi has a docile personality, well-behaved and obedient. She has big breasts and a big butt. She is absolutely easy to give birth to. Apart from the shortcoming of being obsessed with being a blacksmith, I really can't find anything wrong with her. , and I know that in the eyes of savages, Qiaxi is really unattractive with her small arms and body, but in the eyes of you humans, she is a rare beauty, so how about it, not bad."
Uncle Rasuk simply walked around the table and came over, like a hawker selling dog skin ointment. He put his arms around Qiaxi's shoulders and mine, and shouted vigorously.
"Uncle Rasuk, please don't fabricate facts without authorization. Qiaxi and I are just friends."
I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead. This is completely forced sales, right?
"That's right, father, how could you do this? It will make Elder Fan embarrassed." Following my words, Qiaxi nodded quickly.
"You didn't say you didn't want to, right? This kid finally didn't say he didn't want to."
At this moment, Uncle Rasuk suddenly slapped his thigh hard, looked at each other, and laughed.
"Good boy, you did a good job. I introduced so many people to Qiaxi, and her answer was all three words, no, you are the only one who didn't say that."
"I think it's because Qiaxi is too embarrassed to say it directly in front of me." This is human nature, Uncle Rasuk. If everyone was so straightforward, there would be no good guys.
"Nonsense, I brought people directly to her before, instead of just saying that I don't want to in front of her face." Rasuk glared at me, then patted his daughter on the shoulder with relief, "Father, I can finally do this." A smiley expression.
Me: curse..."
Qiaxi, it’s time for you to practice your good card skills. You can’t afford to be hurt by a man who is rejected in front of you.
"That's enough, Father!!"
As Qiaxi's face turned red and she screamed unbearably, she smashed the cup in her hand into Uncle Rasuk's face.
I want to explain here that the cup should have been forged by Uncle Rasuk or Qiaxi himself." That's right, because he is a blacksmith, why spend money to buy it if he can make it himself, and it is more meaningful to make it by himself.
That is to say, "Although the handle of the cup is partially covered with wood to prevent it from being so cold when held in hand, the entire cup, judging from the weight of thirty or forty pounds, is undoubtedly made of iron, and it is not ordinary iron. It should be "refined" and is generally used as a basic material for equipment.
Having said so much, I actually just want to express one thing, that is, the steel fortress of Uncle Rasuk fell slowly after a cup was smashed.
"Every elder" let's go. "
Qiaxi, who instantly FO'd his father and was still angry, took my hand and left as Aunt Rasuk looked on with a meaningful and promising smile.
"I'm sorry, Elder Fan, my father said such things to you."
The wind and snow outside were still there, but with Qiaxi by my side, I, a lost person, felt much more at ease. I still subconsciously held my hand, and her extraordinarily warm body temperature also came to me.
"It's okay, it's okay, but Qiaxi, I can see it." Uncle and aunt are indeed worried about you. You really don't have anyone you like. Can you think about it? "
I asked tentatively, if there is any, then I can secretly tell Uncle Rasuke, "In this way, Uncle and Aunt Rasuke should give up on themselves" and they won't make me feel sick like looking at my son-in-law. A comfortable and scrutinizing gaze entertained me.
"No, not until I become a good blacksmith" I don't want to think about this. "Qiaxi shook her head firmly, took my hand and squeezed it subconsciously, as if to show her determination.
"So that's it. It seems like you're in trouble. By the way, tell me about some interesting things that happened while you were traveling." I laughed and changed the topic.
Qiaxi really likes the profession of blacksmith. Almost all the interesting things she heard from her are inseparable from forging. Whenever she mentions it, her eyes with a shy smile will sparkle. It is rare to see such a thing. People are so passionate about a career.
As a friend, I also want to help Qiaxi and solve her lack of strength, but I haven't thought of a way yet. Having said that, the dwarves are so small, but they contain such huge power. Should I ask for advice? Mu Aodonggua, how did the dwarves develop their brute strength that is completely out of proportion to their size?
"By the way, Elder Fan, why did you come to my house suddenly? To be honest, I was so surprised when I saw you."
While we were walking and chatting, Qiaxi seemed to notice that I was not keen on blacksmiths, so Shou stopped the conversation in a considerate way and asked suddenly.
I was stunned and stopped.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. It's not that I don't welcome you, on the contrary. I'm really happy to meet you. It's just a little unexpected. If it's not convenient to tell you, forget it."
Seeing my stunned look, Qiaxi thought I had misunderstood something and quickly explained.
"No, how could I misunderstand? I should be thanking you. When you asked, I suddenly remembered something important."
Because of the bombardment by Uncle and Aunt Rasuk, I was caught off guard and lost my mind. I even forgot about rendezvous with Artolya. If Chaxi hadn't reminded me, I would have been so stupid that I didn't know where to go.
, "Hey! Is there something important? It must be an important task. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. Because of our willfulness, we wasted your precious time."
When Qiaxi heard this, she was even more frightened. She was afraid that her parents' enthusiasm to stay would delay the alliance's major events, so she bowed and apologized to me repeatedly.
, "It doesn't matter, it really doesn't matter. Let me tell you, Qiaxi, I have known you for so long, but you still talk so openly that others don't think you are a friend."
I couldn't help but have a headache. Although I could feel that Qiaxi truly regarded me as a good friend, his tone and demeanor were still full of respect and politeness.
Of course, it's not good to be like those guys in Malagby. When we first met, they were a little in awe of me, an alliance elder, but now they regard me as a complete fool.
"Because Elder Fan is a respectable friend." Qiaxi smiled shyly and looked at me uneasily.
, "I think it's very pleasant to get along with Elder Fan like this. Could it be that Elder Fan doesn't like 9?"
"No, if you think this is better, then do it."
I'll give it up. People have different ways of getting along with each other. For example, just because I always bully Fini when I have nothing to do does not mean that I don't treat her as a cousin. For example, when Vilas calls me "sir", it seems that she wants to call me "sir" for the rest of her life. , this does not mean that she is not my wife, right?
"Thank you, that's great. If I were suddenly asked to change my attitude and tone, I really don't know what to do." Qiaxi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her eye-catching pair of huge, towering breasts.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot again. Qiaxi, can you tell me which direction Grandma Mala's residence is? I don't know the road."
Suddenly remembering the meeting with Altolia, I quickly said, wondering if she was already waiting for me anxiously.
"Grandma Mara's residence is a bit far away. Follow this road until you reach the third intersection... I'd better take you there myself."
For fear of delaying my great harvest, Qiaxi quickly answered, but as soon as he said it, he suddenly showed an expression that he had remembered something important, and after a subtle pause, he changed his words.
Although he didn't know what Qia Xi was thinking of, he always felt a little unhappy.
Soon after Qiaxi led the way, the outline of Mara's tall building was clearly visible in the wind and snow.
, "That's all. Thank you, Qiaxi, for your help."
, "We are the cause of trouble for Elder Fan." Qiaxi bowed quickly and smiled shyly.
Probably because he was born into a tribe of barbarians with peculiar aesthetics, he always had the subconscious idea that he was ugly. Coupled with the lack of qualifications in strength as a blacksmith, Qiaxi always gave people the impression of being ugly. I lack the confidence to feel inferior in front of others, so even if I am regarded as a friend, my tone is always respectful, polite, and my smile is very reserved. I am shy and shy, giving people a delicate and delicate feeling.
Of course, it was not all bad. Perhaps it was this thought that prompted her to be stronger, work harder, and pursue her dreams more actively.
, "By the way, as I said just now, remember to write to me in the future to say you are safe. Otherwise, only you will know that I am safe, which is so unfair."
, "Except for my father and mother, I have never written to anyone else...how to write..."
Qiaxi lowered her head and said shyly. I thought it must be very inappropriate for the tall beauty to make such a shy and coy gesture, but surprisingly, I was attracted by Qiaxi's current appearance.
"Don't think too much. If you really don't know how to write it, just write the word "peace"." I couldn't help but smile.
, "Hey...is this really okay?"
, "Well, just write like this. You have to write one letter every month. Think of it as punishment. When I become a powerful blacksmith and hear from you in the bar, I can stop."
"What kind of punishment is this?" Qiaxi pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes bright.
"That's the deal."
"Well, I will definitely work hard and live up to Elder Fan's expectations. One day I can become an excellent blacksmith like my father."
, "This is not possible, it must be more powerful."
Smiling and patting each other's palms, it was an agreement.
After watching the figure disappear into the heavy snow for a long time, Qiaxi still didn't look back, staring blankly at the palm of his hand.
1 Use this method to encourage me. Elder Fan is really a good person. 1
1 Maybe my father made the right choice this time. If it is Elder Fan, it’s just that Elder Fan is a dignified elder of the alliance, a great hero, and a savior. He is just a little blacksmith with no ability or talent. To treat him as a friend is already condescending. No matter how virtuous or capable I am. 1
Qia Xi sighed, then smiled slightly.
1 These things, as well as Elder Fan, are too far away for me. Now, I only need to do one thing firmly, that is, to become an excellent blacksmith. For the sake of my dream, and at the same time, I don’t want to live up to Elder Fan’s encouragement, and work wholeheartedly. Go for it and never get distracted. 1
Qiaxi bowed deeply in the direction where the figure disappeared, and turned to leave. The violent snow further highlighted the strength in her eyes that was soft on the outside but strong on the inside.
