The coals burning in the iron furnace make a "clicking" sound, the snowflakes are flying in the wind outside the house, and the warm heat circulates in the house. It is very peaceful and comfortable. It is not a problem to stay in such an environment for a whole day.
But for Ah Feng, every second spent here is torture.
"That" voice from the person across the table
"What...what...what!?" Ah Feng was frightened.
"You held the book upside down"
As soon as Ah Feng read the book, he immediately turned back and laughed awkwardly.
Ten minutes ago, Ah Feng was walking on the way to Wang's Blacksmith Shop.
Spherical white moon lanterns are hung everywhere on the streets. When the wind blows, the small fluorite hanging around the moon lanterns will continuously emit light, just like stars in the dark night.
There is also a dyed ribbon hanging above the road that is enough to run through the entire street. There are also many light and small fluorite sprinkled on it to represent the stars in the night sky.
"Speaking of which, it's almost the Old Moon Festival," Ah Feng said
The moon is supreme in the hearts of people in Xueyue City and is a symbol of purity. To talk about the worship of the moon by the people of Xueyue City, we have to start with the establishment of Xueyue City.
According to legend, hundreds of years ago, the ancestors of the people of Xueyue City had extremely high talents in navigation. With their extremely high talents, they often went to the sea to fish, and occasionally went to the sea to do business with others.
The emperor at that time also took a fancy to their talents and held a voyage with more than a thousand people. There were as many as 300 large ships prepared, not to mention small ships, but no one knew what they were planning to do at that time. , later generations called this event the "Voyage of Thousands"
Back to the story, during a voyage, the caravan entered an unknown sea area. When it came out, there were only less than five ships left. Before they arrived, a huge tsunami also swept them away.
When the crew woke up, they were already in this thousands of miles of ice.
Needless to say, there are a series of issues such as food, temperature, fresh water, etc. We will not talk about how they lived at that time.
When the number of survivors was less than twenty, a crew member climbed up to a high place to commit suicide that night, when a beautiful light penetrated the night sky. In the night sky, there were also bright stars and a woman in white flying down from the moon.
According to later generations' records: "Man's life is miserable and he commits suicide. Looking high, the stars hang for a long night, and the moon girl goes down to the ground to be saved."
Later generations called that beauty "Moon Girl", and the worship of the moon was integrated into the blood of the people of Xueyue City.
In order to thank her, people changed July 15th to "Old Moon Festival", which is similar to what we know as "New Year's Eve". People will hang moon lanterns and star cloth and hold a month-long temple fair, which means "washing away the old."
This August 15th day is the "New Moon Festival", which is similar to what we know as the "Spring Festival". After the thirty-one-day temple fair, the moon girl chosen by the people will seek blessings from the moon on the high platform. ; This is "welcoming the new year".
After praying, the moon girl will dance in the light of the night sky and fireworks; this is a "blessing".
(In reality, July 15th is the "Hungry Ghost Festival" and August 15th is the "Mid-Autumn Festival")
But rather than celebrating the holidays, Ah Feng wanted to quickly see what the weapons he ordered looked like.
Is it an extremely powerful sword? Or the sinister and evil scythe? Or maybe it's some powerful weapon. Thank you so much. I'm so excited. Ah Feng thought
Ah Feng was okay with his lust, but when he thought about the weapon he was about to get, Ah Feng couldn't help but dance, and he also made many cool poses after thinking about the weapon in his mind.
"Boss, where is my "brother"? I don't want him if he doesn't have the same feelings as before." Ah Feng closed his eyes and posed at the door and said
Ah Feng thought that the boss was impressed by his handsome posture, so he did a few more poses.
"Boss, I know I'm handsome but..." Ah Feng opened his eyes and found that the boss was not there at all, only a woman was at the table.
Ah Feng looked at the woman who was halfway through the book. The woman looked at Ah Feng posing at the door. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
"Look, Mom, what is that?" the child pointed at Ah Feng's back.
"That's a perverted child." The mother quickly took the child away.
Ah Feng straightened his posture and walked into the shop naturally. Then he sat down opposite the woman very naturally and took out a book to read.
If you ask Ah Feng, is he embarrassed? Embarrassing for sure. If you ask Ah Feng again why he is sitting opposite the woman? Of course, the boss only placed one table in the store because it was easy to clean.
Boss, will you die if you set up an extra table? Ah Feng cursed
"That" voice from the person across the table
"What...what...what!?" Ah Feng was frightened.
"You held the book upside down"
As soon as Ah Feng read the book, he immediately turned back and laughed awkwardly.
"Ah ha ha ha ha ha"
I really want to die. Ah Feng thought to himself
"Hey, they're all here." Master Wang walked out of the back furnace room, holding two long boxes in his hands.
Master Wang put the long box on the table, rubbed his shoulders and said, "I'm exhausted. How about you all getting to know each other?"
Ah Feng stepped hard on Master Wang's foot, causing Master Wang to take a step back in pain.
If you had come out earlier, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed.
"I'm going, what are you doing?" Master Wang asked
"There is a mosquito on your foot, I just want to help you get rid of it," Ah Feng said
"Can't you be gentler and drive away mosquitoes?" Master Wang asked
"Mosquitoes?" the woman asked with a puzzled look, "Don't mosquitoes only exist in warm climates? Are there mosquitoes in our snowy Xueyue City?"
"I see, my feet have reached the conditions of warm climates?" Master Wang began to think.
"That's not the problem!" the woman complained.
"Forget it," the woman said, "Master Wang, how is my sword doing now?"
Master Wang came back to his senses and said: "Oh, uh... I have repaired your sword for you, and it is in the first box."
The woman slid the upper cover, and her sword was lying intact inside.
The woman tried waving it a few times and found that it was very good, so she put it back in the box.
Master Wang said: "You, please practice less with the sword. You have curled the blade so many times. You may be able to withstand it, but the sword may not be able to withstand it."
"Then my weapons are in this box" Ah Feng said
"Um"
Ah Feng slid the lid and took out the weapon inside. It was a dark iron chain with many thorn-like spikes on it.
Ah Feng's face immediately turned into the word "囧" and said, "Master Wang, although I know you are making a two-headed snake, I really didn't expect you to have such a hobby."
"What's wrong? Can't a two-headed snake do it? Do you look down on people who use concealed weapons?"
"Uh..." Ah Feng took out the candle inside and looked at him
Master Wang looked puzzled, "The candle I used before was extinguished and I put it into the box. What happened? Sometimes I often throw things around and can't find them."
"For example..." Master Wang took out the two-headed snake and started groping for the clothes in the box. "I accidentally put the clothes inside." After saying this, he took out a piece of clothes from the box.
“It’s understandable that clothes should be left lying around,” Ah Feng said.
Master Wang continued to touch a piece of moldy dry food in his hand, "There is also the leftover dry food I had eaten before."
“Understandable”
"And the rocks I accidentally put in there before."
"Hello"
"And..."
"Hello!"
"And the hammer I accidentally put inside before."
"You put everything in it accidentally, how careless are you! What kind of box is this? Is it a space box? How come you can put everything in it?" Ah Feng complained.
The woman slid open the lid and carefully examined the inside.
"What's wrong? Isn't it just a very ordinary box? It's normal to be able to hold so many things, isn't it?" Master Wang asked back
"Normally you..." Ah Feng took a deep breath, "Forget it, do I still have a weapon made of crystal?"
"Oh, that!" Master Wang fumbled around in the box and made many incredible sounds, and finally took out a box the size of a palm.
Ah Feng took the box and took a look at the contents. He was quite satisfied.
Master Wang said: "Well, I'm pretty good at my craftsmanship, right?"
Yi Zifeng said: "Well, it's very good. Master Wang, your craftsmanship is so good. I just have a batch of orders here and I want to introduce it to you."
As soon as I heard about making money, I immediately felt energetic. "That's great, but do you really have an order?"
Yi Zifeng wrote some words on the paper and handed it to Master Wang, "The person on the paper will come to you later, just look at the paper and say it."
Ah Feng finished speaking and was about to leave.
The woman followed Master Wang to the counter to pay the balance. Ah Feng placed the weapons at the door and took out a list to count.
Master Wang said: "Oh, we are all old customers. Just swipe your face here and I will cross it out for you later."
The woman said: "No, I am used to having to see everything resolved before I feel at ease. Thank you for your kindness."
Master Wang sighed: "Oh, you are still so stubborn."
Master Wang took out the record book and wrote the woman's name "Xia Lingxue" on the latest page and crossed it out.
Xia Lingxue said: "Thank you."
Ah Feng stood at the door and turned to look at the woman, saying "What?"
The current city lord's daughter, Shen Xiu's fiancée, and the eldest lady of the Xia family, "Xia Lingxue"
