Chang Geng took the well-brewed bowl offather’s chale diloas the size of a bean, si by theMost of his face was hidden under the shadow of the lamp,only a portion of it was visible and he appeared to had fallen asleep Shen shi+liu did not wear a hair-crown(1), his hair scattered all over Two small beauty marks the color of cinnabar rest under the corner of his eye and on his earlobe, looking like they were created by a needle
The only ht in the room was all taken in by this pair of beautyhiht, his charm seemed to have multiplied three times more than usual
Anyone would appreciate beauty, even if he’s already accustonate, he blinked quickly, as if to clear away that dazzling blood-red spot froht
He cleared his throat and raised his voice: “shi+liu, take the ing period It is a little difficult to talk to this half deaf Fortunately, this time Shen shi+liu has heard it, and the sound of the hyun that had the ability to urge people to urinate had stopped
Shen shi+liu’s eyes narrowed to see Chang Geng standing in the doorway: “Where are your manners, who did you just call?”
In reality, he was only approxi, and was not yetnature and had fully prepared to live this life alone unable to wed a wife But suddenly he got a son whoelse to do, he could only assert his role as his “father” to enored shi+liu and carefully put the medicine bowl in front of hier early, hurry and lie down after you finish drinking”
Shen shi+liu puts aside the hyun(2) and took theyou so well”
He drank the o unmistakably used to it He took twohanded hiyang today, I brought ho for you Come here”
Shen shi+liu then bent over to search around the desk and due to his eyesight, the tip of his nose appeared as if it could graze its surface Chang Geng had no choice but to respond: “What are you looking for? Let me look for you”
Then he couldn’t help but co else to do but keep on bringing s?”
If you have sorolled this thought in his head, and as the words were about to come out, it felt a little hurtful, and he did not say it
All year round, Xu Baihu seldoood and honest h he does not often co had spent these most crucial years of his life with this improper Adoptive Father
Shen shi+liu was a loiterer; spending day by day wasting ti with hio horse riding
On one occasion he even found a “puppy” for Chang Geng to raise – causing Teacher Shen to turn green froht This blindand ended up bringing back a s into an adult, how much willpower does one need to not be ruined by Shen shi+liu’s bad habits?
Chang Geng truly felt frightened as he recalled
By nature he was not the type that loved to play around, everything had his own planning that he would strictly follow He did not like to be bothered by others; the constant disturbance fro
But his irritability did not usually last long for Shen shi+liu truly loved hie of him despite what his wordswas infected with a severe illness, Xu Baihu was not at hoer It was also his young Father who took hiht endlessly for three days
Every time he went out, no ht be, he will surely present Chang Geng with sos, but he can’t help but love the fact that shi+liu kept hihts at any ti Geng saw shi+liu, his irascibility would be extre, but the moment he would not see thesoh Shen shi+liu was not a martial man, nor was he scholarly, nor was he someone who can at least work himself to the bone, but in the future, will there be anyone ould be fooled by his good looks?
In the future, his young Father would eventually get married, birth his own children; would he still remember this adopted son?
When he thinks about this subject, an indescribable feeling stirred up inside He found a square box on shi+liu’s table He briefly shook off the train of thoughts in his head He took it to Shen shi+liu: “This?”
Shen shi+liu: “It’s for you, open it”
Maybe it was a slingshot, e of cheese, nevertheless, it could not be anything of worth – Chang Geng opened the box without any expectation and scold: “You have to learn to save money even if we have some to spare, moreover, I am…”
The next moment, he saw the item in the box, and suddenly shut his mouth, his eyes widened
There was an iron wristband(3) in the box!
The so-called “iron wrist buckle”, in actuality was part of light-weight armors used in thearound the wrist, therefore it often got taken apart from the armor to be used separately
The iron wristband is about four inches wide and can contain three to four small knives inside The knife was made with unique craftss, can also be referred to as the Xiu zhong si(4)
It is said that the best Xiu zhong si when firing off frole hair apart within a few feet distance into two in the blink of an eye
Chang Geng was startled: “This… Where did you get it?”
Shen shi+liu: “Shh – don’t let Shen Yi hear, this is not a plaything, he will start nagging again if he saw – do you kno to use it?”
Teacher Shen hi wasn’t impaired, he could clearly make out the conversation inside the house He did not knohat to do with this half deaf person who uses hi had followed Shen Yi to learn how to disassemble iron armors, he skillfully put on the iron wrist buckle, only then did he discover a special feature of this object
Xiu zhong si was not easy toaround Most of the iron wristbands on the oods from the army The size was, of course, also of an adult ht back by Shen shi+liu was obviously a size s was stunned, Shen shi+liu knohat he wanted to ask, and slowly said: “I heard fro wrong with it, just that the size is a little small Still nobody wanted to purchase it, eventually he sold it to , you can play around with it Just be careful, don’t hurt anyone”
Chang Geng seldoht showed: “Thank you…”
Shen shi+liu: “Thank who?”
