C67 (1/2)
Han Xifei and I are riding a Unicorn. Because we were afraid of being discovered by the enemy, we didn't choose to fly through the sky. Instead, we rode the Unicorn and advanced on the road.
The road on the mountain path was not easy to walk on, there were basically no roads. We passed through two mountains and came to a forest with a river beside it. Han Xifei said that she would stop and rest for a while.
I'm wounded and I don't want to go too far. Naturally, he was also happy to rest here for a while.
I held onto a few mouthfuls of water and drank it before I turned to Han Xifei and said: General, Da Gang has indeed fallen into the Snake Demon's trap, but you shouldn't blame Da Gang in front of everyone. He was the village head. If the villagers did not trust him, he would not be able to continue being the village head.
Han Xifei wanted to say something, but she hesitated. In the end, she said: I have to take responsibility for my own wrongdoings.
I was about to continue arguing with her when she said, like a child, You're too young to understand. When you sit in my place, you will understand.
I didn't understand what Han Xifei meant until many years later. I was driven to a dead end by the betrayal of my loved ones. I realized how stupid I was.
After Han Xifei finished speaking, she started to ride on her Unicorn again, and I followed behind him. He felt that she was a difficult person to communicate with. She thought to herself, No wonder she's so beautiful, but almost 30, and still can't get married.
Seeing me walking slowly behind, Han Xifei said impatiently: Don't think anymore nonsense! Hurry up and keep up with me. Otherwise, I won't wait for you.
I suddenly felt guilty and quickly chased after Han Xifei. I asked curiously: What exactly are we going to do?
Han Xifei pointed to the two scimitars and the spear on my back that were wrapped in cloth, and said: These few cold weapons are quite powerful. The villagers said there was a blacksmith in that village in the northeast who was very skilled. I wanted him to help me fuse these weapons and forge a better one.
We flew for a while on the Unicorn. They finally reached the village that Han Xifei was talking about.
The village did not seem to be very populous or particularly rich. The two of us rode on the Unicorn s on the main road of the village. All of the villagers looked at us in astonishment. Han Xifei walked to the entrance of a shop, then jumped down from the Unicorn's back and entered the shop.
I went over and saw that it was indeed a blacksmith. Other than some farm tools, this shop also had many jewelry and necklaces. What surprised me most was that there were quite a few swords and weapons hanging on the walls.
There was also a furnace beside it. I had only seen this kind of large furnace on television before, but it was the first time I had ever seen one in real life.
A middle-aged man was standing next to him. He was holding a hammer and was beating it against a piece of metal on the chopping board.
When the middle-aged man saw us enter the shop, he stopped what he was doing and stepped forward to say: What a beautiful girl! You want to buy jewelry, right?
I was relieved. Luckily, the middle-aged man was not like the other salesmen and immediately said, ”Is this your girlfriend? She's really pretty.” This sort of thing. They couldn't bear to anger Han Xifei. I'm afraid this will not end well.
However, the middle-aged man didn't let me down. He changed the topic, suddenly pointing to a set of jewelry in the display cabinet and said, ”Look at me, it's a pair of concentric locks. I built this a while ago, it can't be more suitable for a couple like you …”
Before he finished speaking, Han Xifei had already pulled out a gun from her waist and pointed it at his head.
The middle-aged man was so scared that he hurriedly covered his head and squatted down. Thinking that we were here to rob them, he quickly said, ”Woman, please spare us!” I'm in a small business here, nothing of value. As long as you don't hurt me by taking anything away from me, I have both the old and the young. There was also a half-paralyzed wife in the middle of the room. They're on my own...
Han Xifei snappily interrupted the middle aged man, saying, ”Shut up!”
