Chapter 186 Departure

Xiaobai's miserable look really made me feel weak.

I came from a poor life and I know how uncomfortable it is to be hungry.

After hesitating for a moment, I waved my hand to Ji Canghai: "Let him try again."

I immediately added: "This time you find an open space and try it!"

Ji Canghai let go of his hands and looked at Xiaobai with his hands on his hips: "You haven't eaten yet, right?"

"Ah! I haven't eaten for two meals!"

"Wait, then."

Soon, Ji Canghai brought some steamed buns and pickles and placed them in front of Xiao Bai.

Xiaobai was startled, then he hugged the steamed bun and ate it.

Ji Canghai gave me a look and walked out first.

When he got outside, Ji Canghai whispered: "Let's see if he can do it."

"If he has some skills, just let him continue."

I suddenly felt a little confused and said with a smile, "You seem to have never told anyone about your love, right?"

"This kid has been hungry for at least two days, definitely not two meals."

"How did you know?"

"The steamed bun was sour, and he didn't eat it at all. Only when he was hungry could he be so virtuous."

I looked back and saw Xiaobai holding the steamed bun in both hands, munching happily under the light.

Looking at him like this, he is not too old.

I could suddenly understand why he dared to come out to deceive others.

People are so hungry that they really don't care much and just want to make ends meet.

Looking at Xiaobai in the room, I murmured a question.

"You have been hungry for two days, but you said you were hungry for two meals. Why don't you tell the truth?"

Ji Canghai curled his lips: "I'm young, so I think face is important."

"Come on, let's go in."

When we entered the house, Xiaobai stuffed the steamed bun in his mouth and played with pieces of wood in his hands.

As soon as he saw me, he quickly took out the steamed buns and said, "I'm telling you, those who work in our industry must have the spirit of craftsmanship."

As he spoke, he placed the new Tianji tube heavily in front of us.

"Look, isn't this done?"

Ji Canghai picked it up and looked at it: "If you ever mention the spirit of craftsmanship to me again, I will throw it out for you right now."

Xiaobai shrank his neck and said no more.

Fortunately, everything returned to normal during the second experiment.

The steel nails no longer shoot like crazy. With Chen Jiayan adjusting the details, it is basically possible to hit wherever you point.

In the next few days, Xiaobai and Chen Jiayan researched a lot of things.

Including wooden puppets that can explore paths, and some things that look like turtle shells.

According to Chen Jiayan, this thing is called tortoise shell. The innermost part is made of birch wood, and the outer part is covered with a layer of copper skin with a special texture.

Once you encounter a hidden weapon such as a sword or crossbow, you can hide inside without any harm.

Xiaobai bared his white teeth and interjected quite proudly: "Brother, I'm not bragging. You got a bargain by hiring me!"

Chen Jiayan pursed her lips and smiled: "Indeed, having Xiaobai here saves a lot of trouble."

"look."

"Quenching will only make the copper skin softer and softer." She picked up the copper skin on the ground: "But toughness alone is not enough, you must also have hardness. This requires an annealing process."

"Xiao Bai happens to be a blacksmith, so he is pretty good at it."

Xiaobai patted his chest and said, "I'm a typical cheap and big portion, and I'm still full!"

I couldn't help but laugh a few times.

This guy doesn't look very reliable, but he is somewhat capable.

At night, I thought I had been very tired recently, so eating something good would be a reward.

Ji Canghai hasn't come back from shopping for groceries yet, so I'll go to Chen Jiayan's to have a look first.

As soon as I entered the door, I happened to see Chen Jiayan teaching Xiaohua step by step.

Just in time, let’s have dinner together!
