Chapter 91 Ten Thousand Twos(1/2)
Capital City. Zhu Mansion.
"You are working so fast. You have built Dugu Yihe's tomb mechanism in less than half a month. You have just returned one day and started another one." In the courtyard, looking at Zhu Ting, who was holding a carving knife and moving his fingers like flying, Li Yang exclaimed sincerely.
"This speed is normal. What I do is technical work, and the focus is on tricks. It is not about building tall buildings and building large houses. I have worked for several years."
Zhu Ting said, a palm-sized brand was ready, and he put it on the table casually, drank a cup of tea, and picked up a piece of wood to carve it.
There were more than a dozen carved pieces scattered on the table.
"You're always a "carved card" at home?" Li Yang sat opposite the table, lowered his head curiously, and pulled the wooden sign on the table.
"This is my wife's job to make tokens and waist-branded items for those powerful families. My wife said that this kind of work is light and fast. You can complete a lot of things without leaving the house. You can sit and move your fingers in just one day. You can make money quickly and earn more. How good is it. In fact, these brands are not difficult to make, and any craftsman can do it well. But those powerful families just recognize me, so that people know that their objects are carved by the world's best hand, and the picture is nothing more than face." Zhu Ting was carving while talking, distracting and using them for two purposes.
Li Yang picked up a carved sign.
It is tattooed with the family emblem that the buyer requested in advance, with both front and back sides, which is extremely complex, like a ghostly talisman, and there is no sign of what it means at all.
There are several different styles on the table.
"Your hands are so clever. Such a complex pattern can be carved on such a small piece of wood. If it were me, it would be difficult to write a word on it." Seeing Zhu Ting's skill with his own eyes, Li Yang realized that the title of the best hand in the world was indeed well-known.
"No matter how skillful my hand is, it is not as good as your skillful hand when you hide in Dugu Yihe's coffin under the pursuit of Emei and various sects."
"Qiaoqiaoqiao, you all know."
Suddenly a handsome lady walked out of the room, put her hands on her hips, staring at Li Yang and Zhu Ting, who were "business-blowing" in the courtyard.
"My mother's hands are even more clever. Now, you two come in and have a drink immediately. If you ruin the delicacies I have worked hard to make, you will be more beautiful."
"Come now, madam." Zhu Ting threw away the wooden sign and carving knife in his hand, responded with a smile, and walked into the house.
"So you are still afraid of your inner self." Li Yang followed in and laughed quietly behind Zhu Ting.
"What do you know? This is the harmony between husband and wife." Zhu Ting said with a snorted without looking back.
"hehe."
The three of them entered the house and prepared wine and food on the table inside.
A plate of peanuts, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of peanuts.
Looking at the three plates of peanuts on the table, Li Yang's eyes bulged and looked at Mrs. Zhu Ting in disbelief, "Is this the delicacy you have made with great effort?"
Mrs. Zhu Ting said without changing her face: "This is the best delicacy for wine."
"Old Zhu, am I right?" Mrs. Zhu Ting turned to look at Zhu Ting.
"Yes." Zhu Ting nodded immediately.
"Come on, try my skills." Mrs. Zhu Ting took a serious peanut with chopsticks and put it into Zhu Ting's mouth.
"how?"
"tasty."
"Then let's have another sip."
"good."
"..." Li Yang looked at the two of them with a look of looking at the dog.
Then, as soon as I reached out, I didn’t use the chopsticks, grabbed a handful of peanuts on the plate, turned my hand and stuffed it into my mouth, and chewed it very much.
Hutie, it's still a baby...
"So vulgar." Mrs. Zhu Ting curled her lips.
"I'm just a rough man." Li Yang grabbed another handful of peanuts and stuffed them into his mouth to chew them raw.
"But I heard that you are an extremely powerful swordsman. Not only did Dugu Yihe feel crazy and flee with fear, but he also escaped from Mount Emei under the pursuit of Emei and masters from all walks of life. What did you do?" Mrs. Zhu Ting asked curiously.
"Not as exaggerated as you said."
Li Yang shook his head, but he didn't expect the rumor to have spread like this, and then pointed at Zhu Ting, "If you want to know the specific details, just ask your husband."
"he?"
Mrs. Zhu Ting turned to look at Zhu Ting, and her curiosity on her face became heavier, "Is there anything you have to do here?"
"No, don't listen to him talking nonsense. There is nothing wrong with it. You know, I am lazy and timid, so how could I get involved in such dangerous things?" Zhu Ting shook his head and denied it, while secretly winking at Li Yang.
Li Yang was a little stunned, and then understood the reason why Zhu Ting refused to admit it.
The centipede insect died without being stiff. Although Dugu Yihe died, the Emei Sect was still a century-old sect with its foundation and power. If the Emei Sect knew that it had spent a lot of effort to chase after two days and had suffered heavy losses, the enemy who had not been able to kill was finally taken out of Mount Emei by Zhu Ting. It is conceivable how angry the Emei Sect would be, and it would definitely vent its anger on Zhu Ting. By then, Zhu Ting would definitely be on the Emei revenge list.
Li Yang was alone, homeless and without a job, no relatives or worries. As long as he left Mount Emei, he could go anywhere in the world. Naturally, he was not afraid of Emei's revenge. But what about Zhu Ting? The reputation of the world's best skilled man, this warm family of two, will be destroyed.
He just took the lead all the way when he finished the work and took a secret separating from a Tibetan under the carriage. Zhu Ting seemed to be a simple task. Li Yang now understood how much risk he was taking.
And the two of them have only met a few times.
The best skill in the world is actually the true man who values the most loyalty.
"Is there any wine?" Li Yang was in awe.
Mrs. Zhu Ting looked at Li Yang and then at Zhu Ting. The woman's keen intuition told her that there must be something between the two of them hiding from her.
But she didn't ask.
She knew very well that the two people standing in front of her were not ordinary men. Since she didn't say it just now, she would definitely not say it no matter how much she asked.
Of course, this is because Li Yang is a man. If Li Yang is a woman who is more beautiful than her, she will definitely ask the questions to the end.
She took out the wine and filled a glass of Li Yang and Zhu Ting respectively.
Li Yang stood up solemnly, picked up the wine glass to Zhu Ting, "I'll toast you."
Three words are better than thousands of false thoughts.
"Okay." Zhu Ting also stood up.
The two of them touched their glasses heavily in the air and drank them all at the same time.
Zhu Ting breathed out a sip of alcohol from his mouth, "Happy."
Li Yang took the wine pot and first put it on Zhu Tingman, followed by himself.
"I'll respect you again."
"good."
"The last cup."
"Dry."
Li Yang gave three cups in one breath before finally stopping.
Zhu Ting sat down and sighed, "You and I have finally gotten drunk this wine."
He likes to make friends. When he was suffering from the thief, he wanted to have a glass of wine with Li Yang, but he didn't want to drink it for so long.
When Mrs. Zhu Ting heard this, she remembered something, looked at Li Yang, and said, "You still owe our family ten thousand taels of silver."
"When did I owe your family money?" Li Yang only remembers the favor he owe his family.
"Do you want to betray the debt?"
Mrs. Zhu Ting's aura was regained, "In Jiangnan, I was plotted by the Iron Shoes Thieves. You and my old Zhu were trapped in the same room. I made a bet, but forgot?"
Li Yang said "Oh", remembered it, and said with a smile: "When is this happening? You can still remember it."
"Of course I have to remember everything about money." Mrs. Zhu Ting said with confidence.
There is still some truth, "Our Lao Zhu is a clever person. If I didn't remember more, this family would have had a lot of foreign debts, right?"
Her topic led to Zhu Ting again.
Zhu Ting nodded quickly, just like licking a dog, "What the lady said is."
I don’t know why, but I always feel a little happy.
"well."
Li Yang shook his head, pointed at Mrs. Zhu Ting, and pointed at Zhu Ting again, "One is a fan of money, the other is afraid. Your experience is too scary. I really can't stand it anymore, there will be a period of time later."
After saying that, he really put down the wine glass in his hand, got up and left, and before leaving, he still grabbed another handful of peanuts from the plate on the table.
"Let's leave now?" Mrs. Zhu Ting was a little unexpected.
"If he doesn't leave, our family will be in trouble." Zhu Ting's tone was erratic and a little heavy.
If Emei and those people who have pursued Li Yang know that Li Yang is here, they will not rush to his house? At that time, those murderous people will still care about what kind of tricks you are?
Li Yang's departure is actually protecting his family and not trying to get involved.
Zhu Ting did not tell his wife about this profound meaning, and even did not mention a word about Emei.
He didn't want his woman to live in fear all day long.
"My money." Mrs. Zhu Ting was still obsessed with the ten thousand taels.
"Boom." A loud noise suddenly came from outside, scaring Zhu Ting and his wife to make them shudder.
"Is it because the Emei Sect's people are coming?" Zhu Ting couldn't help thinking this way.
