Ali swung the hammer in his hand. The hammer that originally weighed only a dozen kilograms now seemed to weigh more than a thousand kilograms. Every blow made him feel more strenuous, especially the long-term hunger.
He was miserable, but even so, he had only finished forty-seven pieces of iron blanks, and there were still one hundred and three pieces that he needed to forge. If he didn't finish them all, there would be no dinner for him today. Blacksmith
The shop owner always speaks his mind. After all, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened.
Regarding the special treatment Ali received, the other blacksmiths in the shop could only cast sympathetic glances. Of course, they only dared to secretly stuff two steamed buns to Ali behind the boss's back. They couldn't do much else.
.
“The girl’s pink and tender breasts still feel comfortable to touch.”
Three hours after the boss left, the boss staggered back to the blacksmith shop, dragging his drunken body, blinking as he walked.
But as soon as he saw Ali wielding the forging hammer with great strength, he was immediately furious. He staggered up to Ali, looked at him, and then cursed: "I only hit so much, I don't want to have dinner."
Have you eaten?"
Ali, who was sprayed with the smell of alcohol on his face, said, "If you don't want to eat, then I won't eat. Anyway, it's not the first time you haven't given me food."
"Haha! Little one, you still dare to talk back." After the boss said that, he slapped Ali on the forehead. Decades of blacksmithing career gave the blacksmith boss a huge amount of arm strength. Even a light blow could shake his entire body.
Ali, who was very fragile, was staggered by the slap.
Ali bit his lip and said nothing.
"You talk, you should talk back to me again!" But the boss didn't intend to let Ali go. As he spoke, he slapped Ali again.
Other blacksmiths came quickly to intercede.
"Boss, stop beating this kid. He's been beating him since you left."
"Yes, I can also prove that he is not lazy."
"Forget it, it's not easy for this kid to listen."
Faced with everyone's begging for mercy, the boss didn't buy it at all. He drunkenly pointed at the three blacksmiths and said, "If you dare to plead with him again, each of you will hit an additional hundred iron blanks and one day's salary will be deducted!"
He is a blacksmith, and Ali is the only one who has no salary, and his meals are often deducted.
After being yelled at by the boss, the three blacksmiths did not dare to say anything and went to work obediently.
"Hmph, boy, you will never escape from my clutches in this life, just work hard for me," the boss said, smelling of alcohol.
Now Ali was angry. After all, he only agreed to work for the boss for three years to pay off the debt for burying his father. But the boss actually said that he would work for the rest of his life. He said angrily: "Why, didn't you tell me
Do you only need to fight for three years?”
"Three years? Are you dreaming? How much is your salary? One gold coin a day, three years is just over a thousand gold coins. I spent 5,000 gold coins to bury your father! You signed the contract, do you want me to take it?
Come out and show it to you," the boss sneered.
Ali's heart suddenly sank. When he signed the contract with his boss, he said it would only last for three years. At that time, Ali was grateful to his boss for burying his father, so he signed the contract without reading it, but he didn't expect that he would
He was actually tricked by his boss. Once this contract is signed, it will be protected by the laws of the Spirit Empire. If you dare to break the contract, you will be severely punished by the empire!
"You bastard!" Ali looked at the boss with resentment. No wonder the boss tortured himself so fearfully every day. He thought he would be able to escape from the devil's clutches in three years, but now it seems that whether he can escape in ten years is still a question.
The boss was furious when he heard this: "You little bastard, how dare you scold me!"
"Pah, pah, pah", the boss slapped Ali on the face several times, which immediately knocked him out and made him bleed from the nose.
"I'll fight with you!" Ali suddenly swung the hammer in his hand and threw it at the boss.
The boss was completely frightened when he saw this. He grinned and said, "How dare you, an overestimating bastard, attack me? Don't you know that I am a hero?"
Sure enough, the boss easily snatched the hammer from Ali's hand, then swung the hammer and hit Ali on the head. The fiery red fighting spirit enveloped the hammer. Although it was not powerful, it was used to smash Ali's head.
Li's forehead was more than enough to poke.
Ali didn't expect that his boss would dare to kill him. He suddenly became violent. He looked at the hammer getting closer and closer to him with a look of despair, but he felt a sense of relief in his heart. Living like this, it would be better to die.
happy.
"bite!"
Just when the fiery red hammer was about to hit, a slender finger blocked its way.
A strange scene appeared. A hammer as big as a bowl was blocked by a finger.
Jiang Hai looked at the blacksmith boss coldly, fearful in his heart. Although he had never met Ali, he probably knew what Ali looked like, and Ali was so different from other blacksmiths that he recognized him at a glance.
At this critical moment, he flashed in front of the boss and blocked the blow. If he hadn't happened to come over to see Ali today, he might not have been able to find this student.
When the blacksmith boss saw that his hammer was blocked by Jiang Hai, he was furious. He pointed at Jiang Hai and cursed: "Where did that come from? Don't block me." The boss may have drunk a little too much today. He didn't seem to notice how Jiang Hai was blocking him.
Maybe he also noticed it, but his mind didn't realize what it was like to easily block his hammer with just one finger.
Jiang Hai curled his fingers and opened the hammer with a clang, causing even the boss to stagger. Then his team member said coldly: "What are you doing?"
The boss burped and cursed: "It's none of your business that I discipline my workers!"
"Are you disciplining him? I think you want to kill him!"
The boss grinned when he heard this, showing his yellow teeth: "Hey, so what if I kill him? Who do you think you are? Do you care?"
Jiang Hai laughed when he heard this, and said without changing his tone: "Oh? You are quite intimidated. Do you really think that the laws of the Spirit Empire are child's play?"
The boss did not doubt that he was there, but he still breathed alcohol and said: "Emperor Tiangao, who can take care of a blacksmith if I kill him?"
"Very good, I hope you won't regret it." After Jiang Hai finished speaking, he gently raised his right hand, and a ball of blood-colored mist rose from his hand, gradually forming a blood-colored battle sword.
When the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop saw this, he immediately knelt down and buried his head on the ground, not daring to release his breath.
The boss burped from wine and put his eyes in front of the red sword in Jiang Hai's hand to take a look. Suddenly, his face changed drastically. He broke out in a cold sweat and woke up from the wine.
What does that bloody battle sword represent? It is the symbol of a legion just established by the Spirit Empire!
This inconspicuous man turned out to be the leader of the Blood Legion!
Each legion of the Wuhun Empire has its own unique emblem, which was given by the empire. Although Jianghai's bloody legion does not have soldiers yet, it has already received the bloody emblem. It is a magical
The magic was made by an extremely old magician in the empire, and was specially used to indicate one's identity, just like the Jiang family's fighting soul seal in the past.
The boss fell to the ground and looked at Jiang Hai with a pale face.
"Can I care about you now?" Jiang Hai put away the bloody sword in his hand and said jokingly.
"Captain Bloody!" The boss swallowed hard, not daring to speak out loud.
Bloody Captain! Ali seems to have understood something. After all, Jiang Tianchen’s name has made a lot of noise, and he also knows that Jiang Tianchen is his mentor, but he had doubts before, thinking that he should be
The same name, but now he knows that the person in front of him is his mentor, the leader of the Blood Legion of the Spirit Empire, because that silver hair couldn't be more obvious.
Ali timidly asked: "You, are you my mentor?"
Jiang Hai smiled softly at Ali: "Yes, I am your mentor."
The boss's eyes turned green when he heard this. He knew about Ali's stay at Dusheng Magic Academy, but he never expected that Ali's mentor was actually the leader of the Blood Legion who had been awarded the imperial seal a day ago.
!Now he wanted to die. It was all his fault that he was greedy for drinking. He drank two more drinks today.
When Ali saw Jiang Hai's soft smile, his eyes suddenly turned red and he started to cry. He had suffered too many grievances at the blacksmith shop, but he also knew that it was not easy for Huang Bo and the others and they could not afford to pay off their debts. In fact, he
Even if he took out five thousand gold coins, the hateful boss might not let him go.
Jiang Hai could more or less guess what happened to Ali. Seeing the big boy crying sadly, he comforted him and said, "It's okay. Go back to the academy with your tutor. You'll never be in this place again."
"Yeah" Ali nodded sharply.
"Walk"
Jiang Hai patted Ali on the shoulder and slowly walked out of the blacksmith shop, with Ali following behind.
It wasn't until Jiang Hai and Ali left for a long time that the owner of the blacksmith shop came back to his senses. He asked in a daze: "Did Captain Bloody let me go?"
"It seems so." The three blacksmiths were also soaked with sweat. The Blood Legion has the same status as the famous First Guards Legion in the mainland! How can such a supreme existence be a small heroic first-level blacksmith?
What they saw, if it weren't for the hammer falling on the ground and the blood Ali spilled on the ground, several people would even think they were dreaming.
Although Jiang Hai does not specialize in law, as the leader of the Imperial Blood Legion, his power is not ordinary. If it were the Imperial Army, he would be at the level of commander-in-chief, and could command millions of soldiers. Of course, with his status
At this level, he didn't even bother to argue with a few small blacksmiths, so after taking Ali away, he ignored them at all.
Jiang Hai took the thin Ali with him. He looked at Ali and felt a little sad in his heart. After all, he was the one who harmed Ali.
Walking down the street, Ali passed by a steamed bun shop. Ali swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, but he was too embarrassed to show it, and did not dare to look at those tempting big steamed buns. He just kept peeking out of the corner of his eye.
.
Jiang Hai, who was walking in front, naturally had no way of knowing what Ali behind him was thinking.
"What are you looking at? You stinky beggar, get out of here."
But Ali was so hungry that when he walked behind Baozi, he could no longer walk. There was blood on his nose and his clothes were shabby. He looked like a beggar.
Jiang Hai turned his head. When he saw all this, he felt even more sad. Seeing that Ali couldn't lift his head after being scolded, he walked to the bun shop and asked, "How much does a bun cost?"
"Ten silver coins" Jiang Hai's demeanor and clothing were extraordinary, and the boss was much more polite.
Jiang Hai took out a hundred gold coins from the space rune and threw it to the boss and said: "I bought all your buns today."
The boss was overjoyed when he heard this, and he said disdainfully to Ali: "You are lucky, you have met a good person, eat it." The boss thought Jiang Hai took pity on Ali and bought his buns.
"No need." Jiang Hai stopped Ali from getting the bun. Although Ali wanted to take a bite of the big white meat bun, he listened to Jiang Hai's words and took back his hand.
Jiang Hai pointed to a stray dog on the side of the street and said, "It's the one who wants to eat your buns!" After Jiang Hai said that, he took Ali and walked to a big hotel not far away.
