Chapter 24: The Strange Old Man

The next morning.

Jiang Yi took Jiang Shu to stroll on the street. She couldn't remember where the iron shop in the west of the city was, so she wanted Jiang Shu to take her.

Jiang Shu didn't want to go, but who made her block the gate early in the morning, wherever he went, wherever she went. This cunning girl.

"Happy, brother, I'll invite you to the roast duck from Zuixianglou later, okay?"

"Stupid girl, you will call me brother only if you ask me for it."

Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Shu with a flattering look, and Jiang Shu snorted coldly.

"Okay, okay, eat first, and you will have the energy to work after you finish your meal."

Jiang Shu smiled angrily, "You treat me like a horse, right?"

“No, no.”

Jiang Yi closed his mouth based on the principle of saying more and making mistakes.

She really didn't know who asked her for help, so she could only ask Jiang Shu for help.

However, what surprised her was that what was following Jiang Shu was Shangguan Qin?

When did Jiang Shu get close to women? Or was there something that she didn't know about in the middle?

"Miss Shangguan..."

Shangguan Qin lowered her head, "Miss, I am just a lady Qin's wife, a maid of the young master. I can't say anything about Miss Shangguan."

Jiang Yi's eyes flashed slightly. Jiang Shu had his own rules for doing things, and it was useless for her to ask.

After drinking and eating, Jiang Shuxin took Jiang Yi to an iron shop in the west of the city with satisfaction.

"You want him to get you a weapon."

"No, I want to learn from that master how to shoot a weapon."

He then explained, "First of all, I don't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. There is definitely no shortage of external objects that can be bought with money. Secondly, women always compare the tokens by themselves, and you don't know my embroidery worker. If Ayan takes the purse I embroidered, he will be laughed at to death. Finally, do you think you can think of something better besides building weapons?"

"You can use it to learn it yourself?"

"This is called sincerity."

"Then is your month enough?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

"Okay, let's go in."

"Wait a minute." Jiang Yi suddenly stopped,

"What?" Jiang Shu asked with a frown.

"The owner of this iron shop is a strange old man. He only builds weapons for those who like him. If I do it myself, I will definitely take him as my teacher. So, think of a way to make him accept me?"

After hearing this, Jiang Shu stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Yi's ear, "Jiang Yi, you have to ask me to help you with your master?"

Jiang Yi was frightened by Jiang Shu, "What are you doing when you are shocked? I'm so scared that you are my brother, don't you help me?"

“…”

Sure enough, she was still the shameless sister, and she hadn't changed at all.

Jiang Shu leaned into Jiang Yi's ear and muttered, "Aru and the others are far away, and ordinary people can't hear what they are saying."

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth, made a cruel decision, and resolutely entered the iron shop, but he did not see a successful smile appearing on Jiang Shu's face.

Jiang Shu had no other hobbies in his life. Apart from writing, he was just a bad taste. Punishing Jiang Yi was his biggest bad taste.

Hahaha, the Jiang brothers and sisters are all glutinous rice balls filled with black sesame. They are simple and righteous on the outside, but they are covered with bad water inside.

Even though she knew that Jiang Shu was deliberately slandering her, Jiang Yi was still moved. She wanted to build a weapon for Gu Ziyan with her own hands.

The iron shop was so scary that Jiang Yi coughed twice, "Hello, is there anyone? Hello, is there anyone?"

"What are you shouting? You can't see me in front of you?"

A hoarse voice came from the corner to Jiang Yi's right, and then a hunched old man appeared in front of Jiang Yi.

His face was wrinkled like a tree bark without water. It was extremely terrifying. His shriveled figure stood shakingly in front of Jiang Yi, not as tall as hers.

"Hello, senior, I'm here to learn from my master."

"Gonggui, the old man will not accept disciples."

"Senior, I know you see that I am a girl, and I am afraid that I will not have perseverance, but I really want to learn from you."

The old man was indifferent and snorted coldly, "Come on when you want to come. This piece of land is not mine. If you don't get anything, get out."

Without saying a word, Jiang Yi fell to the ground and started crying with the old man's legs.

The old man was caught off guard by Jiang Yi's thighs and reacted and shouted, "Do you want to be shameless in your movie? Get up."

"I can't afford it. If you don't agree today, I won't get up. Wow, wow, my life is so hard..."

“…”

The old man lost his temper by Jiang Yi's crying, "Okay, okay, I promise you, but I want to inspect you. In two weeks, if you can persevere, I will teach you, I can't persevere..."

Jiang Yi's eyes lit up, "Thank you, Master."

"I didn't recognize you as my apprentice, don't shout."

Jiang Yi didn't mind at all, stood up quickly and hit the mud on the knee, "Master, what can I do!"

The old man picked up a piece of scrap iron from the ground and threw it to her, "Grind it into a round iron block the size of a copper coin."

Jiang Yi was stunned and picked up the scrap iron. The surface was uneven. How to grind it?

"I will teach you, just say it once, listen carefully."

Jiang Yi took the scrap iron out of the wooden house and looked out of the window at Jiang Yi's straight body.

The old man's eyes flashed slightly, his lips moved slightly, and he didn't say anything, and he lowered his head to work again.

When Jiang Shu outside saw Jiang Yi coming out, she was dismayed and gloated because she was disgusted.

"How is it, it's hard for the old man to do it."

Jiang Yi glanced at him squintedly, "How do you know this iron shop?"

"I have been to Liangzhou with my father, do you still remember?"

Jiang Yi nodded slightly,

"This old man is a veteran of the Liangzhou garrison army. He is old and can't take up the knife anymore, so he came back with me and my father."

Jiang Yi had an impression of what Jiang Shu said. About four years ago, a rebellion occurred in Liangzhou, and Jiang Zhuo was ordered to rehabilitate. Both of them wanted to secretly follow Jiang Zhuo to Liangzhou. However, halfway through Jiang Yi was captured by the people sent by Li. Jiang Shu was smart and was not found. Later, Li wrote a letter to Jiang Zhuo. Jiang Zhuo found Jiang Shu when he received the letter. At that time, the army had been halfway through, and he could not delay national affairs for his own selfishness.

So, Jiang Shu followed Jiang Zhuo to Liangzhou. Jiang Yi was always worried about this matter. When he heard this, he immediately lowered his head, "Hey, you are the legitimate son, and your parents still love you more."

Looking at Jiang Yi's appearance, Jiang Shu couldn't bear it for a moment, "Sister, no..."

Before Jiang Shu could finish his words, Jiang Yi smiled and raised his head, "To compensate me, you can help me get this old man."

"..." He was deceived again.

Jiang Shu slapped himself in the face with hatred. Even though he knew it was a lie, he would still be deceived by Jiang Yi every time.

"I can't help you, I can only rely on yourself. My father wanted to win him over and stay with him, but he didn't get what he wanted."

Jiang Shu's words are true, otherwise how could this person be called a bad old man?

I don’t want to open an iron shop in the west of the city, but do you think it’s strange?

Since she knew the origin and strangeness of the old man, Jiang Yi was even more sure of her idea. Jiang Yi had an advantage. Once she made up her mind, she would persist until she did it, just like when she had an accident and began to practice martial arts diligently after the disaster.

She never gave up, nor would she give up.
