Chapter 761 (2/2)

”After walking so far, you can rest for a while. If someone passes by here, you can take me back.” Xia Xin said to Shen Feng.

”It's all right. You're not heavy. You're not tired at all.” Shen Feng smiled and went on.

After listening to Shen Feng's words, Xia Xin had a little joy in her heart, a faint smile appeared on her face, and a pair of jade arms tightly hooked his shoulders.

But not far away, seven or eight strong men carrying bamboo baskets came along a path next to them.

The bamboo baskets on their backs are filled with charcoal and coal. Mingdao village needs smelting. The charcoal and coal required for smelting are carefully selected and carried up the mountain manually.

These bamboo baskets are several circles larger than ordinary bamboo baskets. A basket of coal is at least two or three hundred kilograms, but these people walk on the mountain road like walking on the ground. They are not ordinary people at first sight.

Except that the first man looked more than 50 years old, others were young people in their twenties and thirties.

The first middle-aged man is Jiang Xian. He has a high reputation in Mingdao villa. In addition to the villa leader, he should call him uncle Xian, even young master and young lady.

This man is not only a master of knife casting, but also every time he chooses coal, he does everything himself, and the people behind him are his disciples.

”Second lady, why are you here? Who are you? ” Uncle Xian looked at Xia Xin on Shen Feng's back and hurried forward to ask.

”Don't be nervous, uncle Xian. He is my friend. When I was picking herbs on the mountain, I couldn't lower my feet and sprained my heart. Thanks to him, I went up the mountain on my back.” Xia Xin smiled.

After listening to Xia Xin's explanation, uncle Xian breathed a sigh of relief. ”I see. Thank you for your little brother.”

With that, he quickly said to the disciples behind him: ”disciples, don't come to help.”

Those disciples quickly put down their bamboo baskets and surrounded them, but they had just carried coal and charcoal and were dirty all over. Xia Xin didn't dislike them, but they were too dirty and their hands were black.

Xia Xin was also embarrassed to say clearly, but patted Shen Feng on the shoulder.

Shen Feng knew for a moment, smiled at Uncle Xian and said, ”I don't need your help. I can do it myself. I heard that I'm going to sacrifice the stove in recent days. Don't delay the business.”

”Good.” Uncle Xian didn't shirk it. When sacrificing the stove, he needed to light multiple stoves at the same time, and charcoal fire was also the most needed. In recent days, he and his disciples got up early and transported in the dark.

So Shen Feng went with Xia Xin on his back and uncle Xian on his back.

”Little brother, you must come at this time for the sacrificial furnace knife.” Uncle Xian asked Shen Feng with a smile.

”I'm not interested in sacrificing the stove knife. I'm just here to repair the knife.” Shen Feng said frankly.

”Ha ha...” Uncle Xian laughed immediately after listening to his words and continued: ”the process of repairing the knife is the same as that of casting the knife. Strictly speaking, the process of repairing the knife is more complicated than that of casting a new knife. It is not only necessary to melt the old knife, but also to select the appropriate ore.”

Shen Feng frowned and said, ”how long will it take?”

”It depends on the appearance of your old knife and whether there is a suitable ore.” Uncle Xian smiled and said, ”do you have your knife with you? I can help you now. ”

If there were only uncle Xian and Xia Xin here, he would certainly take out the Baizhan Dao, but it was still inconvenient for uncle Xian to have so many disciples present.

”Sorry, I asked my friend to send the knife up the mountain first. I didn't take it with me.” Shen Feng declined
