"Come, come, take a look, take a look, are you satisfied with these things?" Zhu Dexi pointed at the things on the ground and said. I.
A large pile of things were spread in front of Li Huowang, most of which were rusty swords and some bottles and jars next to them.
"What are these? They are all rusty, broken copper and iron." Gou Wa squatted down and started bargaining.
"Don't look at the rust, it can still be used after grinding. If there is really a magic weapon, it won't be my turn, don't you think?"
Li Huowang didn't pay attention to the swords, but focused on the bottles and jars.
He half squatted, picked up one by one and looked at them, and found that there was no writing on them.
"This Taoist knows the goods, and he can see the good things at a glance."
Zhu Dexi just squatted beside him, and was frightened by the bloody smell on Li Huowang's clothes and took two steps back.
But he was not afraid, but became more attentive.
"Master, what you have in your hand is a good thing. The name of this medicine is Half-step Fall. If you put a little bit of it into the water, people will definitely fall down after taking half a step. It's not expensive, only three taels of silver for one bottle."
"Ah! You have good taste! This bottle is also a treasure! It is Hedinghong. Just put as much as a fingernail and you can send people directly to the underworld. Five taels for one bottle."
"Yes, yes, yes, this is even more precious. The golden gun will not fall down!! Take one! I guarantee that two women can hold on for a whole night. This is ordered by Liu Erye of Langtou Mountain. If you want it, I'll give it to you first, but you have to pay more."
Li Huowang stood up impatiently, "Why is everything a treasure in your mouth? Okay, I want the first two things, Gou Wa, get the money in the car."
"Master, you are generous!" Zhu Dexi laughed so hard that his eyes could not see. "You really don't want the golden spear? How about I give you a discount? You may not need it when you are old, but you may not need it when you are young. There is no need to have too many of these good things. After all, they can carry on the family line."
Li Huowang was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned to look at the others, "You all pick a weapon that suits you. It's better to have it than not to have it."
Hearing this, except for the two women Bai Lingmiao and Xiaoman, the other men who were already eager to try came forward.
Li Huowang put the two bottles of medicine in his arms and said to Lu Zhuangyuan who was watching the excitement on the side: "Master Lu, don't you buy something to defend yourself?"
Lu Zhuangyuan shook his head hurriedly. "No, I don't have any weapons on me. If I am really caught by the bandits, at most I will lose my silver. But if I carry weapons on me, if I can't beat them, I will die."
"Haha, Master Lu is thoughtful. Everyone has their own way of life." Li Huowang returned to the donkey cart and lay down.
When the crowd dispersed, Gou Wa and his men had already got a weapon in their hands. No matter whether they could use it or not, at least it looked several orders of magnitude more intimidating than before.
Just as they were excitedly holding up their knives to show off to each other, Bai Lingmiao, holding a thimble and thread in his hand, came over.
With a worried look on his face, Bai Lingmiao took the red thread and sewed up some holes on Li Huowang's Taoist robe.
"Brother Li, these things have cost us more than half of our silver, and now we only have five taels of silver left."
"We have to walk on the road for many years, so we still need these self-defense items." It seems that Li Huowang has a Taoist bell and can perform a blood sacrifice to summon Dan Yangzi, so he doesn't need these mundane things at all.
But to be honest, Li Huowang really doesn't trust himself.
He is really worried that one day, the time for Hei Tai Sui to maintain stability will disappear, and he will fall into hallucinations again and can't extricate himself.
If that happens, without anyone to protect him, he will be a lamb to be slaughtered.
"Brother Li, these swords are only useful against bandits. If we can learn the magical powers of Danyangzi, we will not be afraid of anything." Gou Wa came over with a knife and said regretfully.
"You want to learn? Will others teach you? Besides..."
Speaking of this, Li Huowang recalled Danyangzi's use of people to make elixirs and the strange "cultivation" methods of Monk Zhengde. "Besides, even if he is willing to teach you, you, an ordinary person, may not dare to practice those magical powers."
Although he did not have much contact with them, Li Huowang had a hunch in his heart that other forces in this world might not be much better than Danyangzi.
Gou Wa laughed, nudged the man who was born with one arm beside him with his elbow, and led him to the stream beside him. "Let's go, find a rough stone in the water to sharpen the knife."
At this time, the tall fool came forward and blocked Li Huowang's shadow like a wall, "I...I...I"
"Don't bother me, you don't need a sword, just practice your club, that thing can maximize your strength advantage." After saying that, Li Huowang lay down again.
This episode of Huojiaolang ended just like that, and the two gangs continued on their way.
Days passed by, except for occasionally passing by some small villages to let the Lu family perform a play, they were usually on the road.
Li Huowang's neck also healed slowly over time.
Standing by a water tank, Li Huowang raised his chin and looked at the scar on his neck facing the water.
"It's okay, if you lower your head, it won't be so obvious."
Li Huowang turned his head and looked at Bai Lingmiao beside him, and rubbed her white head with his hand. "Why do you have such a stern face? Has nothing unhappy happened recently?"
"Brother Li, we just replenished some food and donkey feed. We only have one tael of silver and three hundred and forty-five copper coins left." Bai Lingmiao counted on his fingers.
"So fast? It shouldn't be." Li Huowang walked out of the farmyard where he was staying temporarily and walked towards the stage of the Lu family.
"It could have been longer, but you asked them to practice swords and guns. Everyone was exhausted and ate more. Since the fool took the wooden stick, he has to eat two catties of noodles for one meal! Four catties of noodles for two meals a day!!"
"But it's not a fire stick. You have to practice it after buying it. Apart from other things, you have to learn chopping and stabbing."
It's just a simple chopping. There is a difference between practicing it every day and just carrying it on your back.
When encountering an enemy, smearing poison on their blades is also a threat that cannot be underestimated.
At this time, Li Huowang looked at other people who were helping the Lu family to dismantle the stage in the distance.
"But we can only hold out for a month at most, and everyone will go hungry."
"No money... This is a problem."
Li Huowang touched his chin and looked at the Lu family thoughtfully. "They should have made a lot of money along the way, right? Wouldn't it be solved if we robbed them all?"
When this thought came to him, Li Huowang was stunned at first. Why did he think so? This Lu Zhuangyuan, although smooth but upright, why would he think of robbing him?
Li Huowang's good mood just now was suddenly overshadowed.
