Chapter 18 Looking back at dusk, the man was in the dim light
For Ace and the others, this is what Whitebeard Daddy explained to Li Yin.
They were the first children he adopted. Just like Li Yin and Mu Mu, they couldn't calm down no matter what, and finally went out to make their own way. It's just that this group of brats didn't learn well and became pirates, and even named the sea after him.
The thieves really embarrassed him.
Although my father's tone was very disdainful when he spoke, his expression was always filled with pride and a smile.
It can be seen that in my father's heart, Ace and the others are not as miserable as he said.
The only thing that left Li Yin speechless was that Ace had clearly said before that the money had been given to his father, but his father said that he hadn't even received a single copper, and Ace still let Ace play tricks on his feelings.
The feeling of not getting paid immediately made Li Yin feel a little painful.
After noon, when all the noisy boys went to take a nap, Li Yin called Xian'er to her room alone.
At first, Li Yin didn't feel anything unusual. He often came to Xian'er's room before, but this time, for some reason, when Li Yin closed the door, Li Yin suddenly noticed that Xian'er seemed to be in a strange mood, and her face was a bit strange.
He was flushed and looked a little restless.
"I recently learned how to make a combat instrument. It needs to be customized. I will help you check your attributes and arm bone size."
Li Yin quickly explained with a guilty conscience.
"kindness."
But obviously Li Yin's words didn't have any effect. Instead, they made Xian'er even more nervous, lowering her head and fiddling with the corners of her clothes.
Suddenly, the situation between Dan Dan and Tie Xue appeared in Li Yin's mind.
The authorities are confused, but those who watch are clear. Only then did Li Yin realize that there was a person like Dandan beside him, but he had not noticed it before.
With a soft sigh, Li Yin put away his other thoughts and reached out to grab Xian'er's wrist.
Xian'er's skin was very delicate and soft, and after walking in, a faint fragrance penetrated Li Yin's nose.
Just as he held Xian'er's wrist, Hun's slightly surprised voice rang out.
"She has a pure wood physique and is a natural healer. She has no talent or advantage in combat, but she can easily control the healing auxiliary cards. Even in our era, people with pure physiques can
not much."
When he first heard Hun's comments about Xian'er, a smile appeared on Li Yin's face. Xian'er, like his own sister, had outstanding talents. Li Yin was sincerely happy for her, but Hun's words changed.
"However, due to the long-term lack of professional exercise, her bones have not grown very well and are not very flexible. At her current age, her bones are close to being finalized. It is difficult to catch up and she needs to work many times more than others.
efforts.”
Li Yin disagreed. As for Xian'er, he didn't intend for her to become an outstanding therapist. Li Yin saw clearly that once a person becomes famous, trouble will follow one after another, so Li Yin only planned to let Xian'er's
As your abilities improve, you will be able to help other people in the town and the orphanage more easily.
Regarding Li Yin's decision, Hun did not give any opinions. He just whispered softly where Li Yin could not hear: "It is impossible for ordinary people to become the companions of the Holy Son. The Holy Son is destined to live in endless challenges throughout his life.
among.”
After Li Yin determined the size of Xian'er's bones, he smiled slightly, took out his pen and ink, and wrote hundreds of words on how to exercise his hands according to Hun's instructions, and told Xian'er to practice for half an hour every morning and evening.
Immediately after leaving Xian'er's room, he prepared to try to draw the drawings of the combat instrument for the first time.
During the whole process, Xian'er's cheeks were red, like cooked shrimps.
Li Yin wanted to say something many times, but he didn't know how to start. Li Yin really didn't have any experience in relationships, and he didn't know how to deal with it at all.
The blueprint of the combat instrument is actually not difficult, and it is not much different from what Li Yin got. However, since Xianer's is an auxiliary combat instrument, it is smaller and lighter.
The real difference will only take effect after Li Yin finally draws special card patterns and other processes inside the combat instrument.
After an hour of drawing, the three-dimensional renderings of the battle instrument were completed. It must be said that Li Yin had an outstanding talent in painting. He could paint what he wanted. This was why the deceased card maker was willing to teach him.
The reason why Li Yin made the card.
After stretching, Li Yin said hello to his father and walked to the only blacksmith shop in the town.
Speaking of this blacksmith shop in the town, we have to talk about Kami.
There are three small metal deposits around White Cat Town, so there were many blacksmith shops before, but since Kami came, other blacksmith shops have closed down.
Li Yin didn't know how good Kami's craftsmanship was, but even the best blacksmiths in White Tiger City might not be as good as him.
Moreover, the card has very low material requirements. He never charges money for working for others. As long as he has good wine, he will start working.
With his excellent craftsmanship and the fact that he didn't charge any money, naturally everyone came to him to work. Naturally, other blacksmith shops had no way of making a living and had to find other ways to make a living elsewhere.
Since he was a child, Li Yin couldn't figure out why Kami didn't go to a big city to make money and insisted on staying in this small town.
Kami had a good relationship with Li Yin when he was still very young. The reason was that one day he accidentally told Mu Mu about the way Whitebeard hid his wine and Kami heard it.
Li Yin remembered clearly that at that time Kami's face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and he offered to make iron traps and other self-defense weapons for himself and the wood. Of course, the premise was that Li Yin could steal the wine hidden by Whitebeard.
Li Yin naturally readily agreed to this point. A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. Anyway, Li Yin didn't drink at that time, so Kami didn't feel sorry for him at all.
At this point, Li Yin and Kami became very close friends. Naturally, after that, several jars of aging wine were lost every year in the secret cellar where Baibeard kept his wine.
Walking to Kami's all-metal blacksmith shop, Li Yin still couldn't help but sigh, "Abnormal."
So far, Li Yin had only seen this one all-metal blacksmith shop.
The entrance to the blacksmith shop was still crowded, with more than a dozen people lining up, carrying various farm tools, weapons, and a jug of good wine.
Li Yin pursed his lips. Although Kami repaired iron tools very quickly and one person could control three furnaces to start working at the same time, a dozen people would only consume an hour of his time at most.
But Li Yin didn't want to wait, and directly patted off the sealing mud on the wine jar he had "borrowed" from Baibeard, and a faint fishy aroma of wine immediately melted into the air.
In just a few seconds, a cry of exclamation was heard from the blacksmith shop, and then a thick smoke rose from it. Apparently, Kami, who never made mistakes, lost his hand under the temptation of the wine, and three times
The contents of this furnace appear to be useless.
Li Yin saw the miserable scene in the blacksmith shop and immediately showed a bright smile.
"Aha! What do I smell? Whitebeard's whale wine! Is the shadow back?! You are the only one who can steal Whitebeard's wine!"
The sound arrived before anyone arrived. Before Li Yin saw anyone, a familiar voice came from the blacksmith shop.
Immediately, a not-so-strong figure rushed out of the thick smoke and rushed towards the wine jar in Li Yin's hand. He couldn't see clearly what Kami looked like. He was covered in black here and there, and he looked really embarrassed.
.
When Li Yin saw Kami's appearance, he almost laughed out loud. He suppressed his laughter, covered the wine jar in his arms, blocked Kami's attack route, and tried his best to mouth at the people who were still at the door of the blacksmith shop.
"Stop work! Stop work! No work today! Come back tomorrow if you have something to do!"
Kami immediately understood what Li Yin meant, turned around and roared loudly at the crowd behind him. Regardless of other people's reactions, he pulled Li Yin and rushed into the blacksmith's shop where thick smoke was still coming out.
Before anyone else could react, the all-metal door closed with a bang.
The townspeople who were immediately locked out shook their heads helplessly.
Ever since Kami and Li Yin got to know each other, as long as Li Yin came with wine, there would be such a result, and everyone had long been used to it.
"What do you want me to do for you this time~ My little ancestor~ You should give me the wine~"
After entering the blacksmith shop, Kami immediately jumped up like a monkey, preparing to grab the wine jar from Li Yin's hand, but he was afraid of spilling the wine that was not covered with mud, so he was unable to grab the wine from Li Yin's hand.
altar.
Li Yin fumbled around at the iron door filled with thick smoke, finally found the mechanism, and pulled the wrench down hard. Immediately, the roof of the blacksmith shop automatically opened, and a gust of wind rose from the cracks in the floor.
The thick smoke was cleared instantly.
"Ahem! Help me make this."
Li Yin choked twice and handed the drawing in his hand to Kami.
Kami only glanced at it, then nodded quickly, staring at Li Yin with eyes full of expectation.
Li Yin rolled his eyes. It was really creepy for a grown man to stare at him like this. He immediately handed the wine jar to Kami without hesitation.
A shadow flashed past, and just as Li Yin stretched out his hand, the wine jar in his hand was already in Kami's hand.
Kami raised her neck and poured the wine from the wine jar into her mouth in large gulps. The speed was extremely fast, but not a bit leaked out. This was not the first time Li Yin had seen such a scene, but every time he saw it
Li Yin was impressed by Kami's unique skills.
"Ah! Good wine! I haven't had this wine for almost a year. Ever since you learned how to make cards, you rarely come to me for help."
Kami drank the entire jar of wine in a blink of an eye, wiped the corners of his mouth where there was nothing, and pulled the corner of Li Yin's clothes with a look of resentment on his face.
"I'm a card maker, not a card master. I don't have that much need for iron armor and weapons."
Li Yin's eyes twitched and he knocked Kami's hand off with disgust. But when he mentioned the weapon, he suddenly remembered something and took out the silver dagger stored close to his body and handed it to Kami.
"By the way, help me modify this so that outsiders can't see the original appearance, but the sharpness remains unchanged, okay?"
This dagger is really the one that Xiao En stabbed into his chest. After having this dagger for so long, Li Yin has never encountered anything that it can cut endlessly. If it is not too conspicuous, it is from the fourth level imperial card.
Where did the master get the stolen goods? Li Yin had already taken them out and used them for fear of being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble.
"This is……"
When Kami saw this shiny silver dagger, he was immediately stunned.
"You know him?"
Li Yin took a step back warily. Although he and Kami had known each other for so long, they had not yet reached the point where they could confide in each other. At least Li Yin didn't know anything about Kami's past.
"Who knows those grandchildren? No! Wait, I'll get it done for you right away."
Kami's answer made Li Yin feel relieved. Obviously Kami knew the force represented by this dagger, but he was not from the same camp.
