“Get up, don’t block me.”
Xiaoying glared at Zhong Yong. Her competitive spirit had risen. Even if she used all her strength, she would still light the fire today. She didn’t believe that she couldn’t push the windmill.
Zhong Yong was very well-behaved. He grinned and agreed, “Hey.”
Su Qing found it funny. In front of Xiaoying, Zhong Yong was bullied like a child. He was careful and always got scolded.
“Xiaoying, let Zhong Yong pull.”
Su Qing asked Xiaoying to give up her seat to Zhong Yong. This was not a girl’s job.
“You guys go and help Auntie Li and the others make cotton-padded clothes.”
Su Qing feared sparks would fly to the girls when they were forging later. Moreover, they could not help much here. It was better to help Auntie Li and the others tear down the Tartan people’s cotton-padded clothes they had picked up yesterday and make them into cotton-padded jackets that ordinary people could wear.
Because the Tartan captains were tall and burly, and their cotton-padded clothes had the number of the Tartan soldier on them, the women of Peach Blossom Cove could not wear them. They could only tear down the cotton-padded garments and make them fit them.
“Oh.”
The girls were reluctant to leave. They were used to following Su Qing’s lead and wanted to become as powerful as her.
Sister Su Qing wanted to forge a weapon, so they wanted to learn too.
“This is a man’s job. If any of you can swing this hammer, you can stay.”
Su Qing saw the reluctance in the girls’ eyes, so she pointed at the iron hammers and asked them to try swinging them.
The result was obvious. The girls could not move the hammers at all and walked away listlessly.
“Master, I can swing it.”
Zhong Yong squatted on the ground and looked at Su Qing with big eyes. He smiled at her and was as cute as a husky.
“Okay.”
Su Qing had left Zhong Yong behind because she wanted him to swing the sledgehammer. Although she could swing it with her strength, why not use it when she had help?
Su Qing saw that the flame in the furnace had already started, so she scooped up the coal with a shovel and sent it into the furnace. Initially, she could not pour all the coal into the furnace simultaneously, as it would extinguish the fire. She put out some coal first and waited for it to rise before continuing to put out the coal.
Zhong Yong drove the cart with all his might. It was easy for him to do what others did. This kid was a chatterbox who couldn’t stand loneliness. Although Su Qing ignored him, he couldn’t stop Zhong Yong’s talkative mouth.
Zhong Yong was beaming joyfully as he spoke to his master, “Master, the move you taught me was very useful.”
The corner of Su Qing’s mouth twitched. ‘With your strength, you can smash someone’s head without even using any moves. This should be called a hammer that doesn’t miss.’ Only thieves don’t miss.
However, she only cursed in her heart and didn’t say it out loud. Otherwise, Zhong Yong would continue to talk even more verbally.
The fire was burning brightly. Su Qing threw the scimitar into the fire to smelt it. The scimitar slowly melted. When Su Qing saw that her smithing skills had leveled up, the system’s voice sounded in her ears,
“Congratulations, Host. Your forging has reached level one. Your physique, spiritual power, combat power, and war god ability have all reached level 45.”
“Remember the reward.”
Su Qing didn’t know what to use for the time being, so she asked the system to record the reward. Otherwise, it would go back on its word.
“Master is so awesome! Good luck, good luck.”
Xiao Qi’s cute voice rang out at the right time. Her adoring voice made Su Qing very happy.
“Master, I like to kill the people of Tartan. Smashing their heads is very interesting. Master, can you teach me a few more moves?”
Zhong Yong was still talking nonsense. When he saw his master smile, he became even more enthusiastic and asked Su Qing to teach him new tricks.
“Is that hammer of yours heavy enough?”
Su Qing didn’t answer the question and asked Zhong Yong.
“It’s so light.”
Zhong Yong had a look of disdain on his face. He felt that the pair of iron hammers that he had snatched from the bandit leader were not suitable for him.
“I’ll make you a pair of hammers.”
Su Qing decided to make the first weapon for Zhong Yong. Although this child was not mentally sound, he was loyal. He would never betray the person he was loyal to.
Moreover, Zhong Yong was very malleable, strong, and brave. He was Shuisheng’s, right-hand man. If he were given a pair of suitable weapons, he would be able to play a more significant role on the battlefield.
Zhong Yong was overjoyed. His master wanted to give him a hammer. When he saw Xiaoying holding Su Qing’s arm and acting coquettishly, his master was pleased.
So, he imitated Xiaoying and stood up, holding Su Qing’s arm and leaning his huge head on her shoulder. Because his tall body was like a hunched prawn, he smiled and said coquettishly,
“Master is so good.”
After Ji Shuisheng and Uncle Cheng discussed the plan to lure the snake out of its hole, he came to look for Su Qing. When he entered the blacksmith shop, he saw Zhong Yong’s despicable appearance. His face darkened immediately. No matter who approached Su Qing, he would not be happy.
“Move aside.”
Su Qing also had goosebumps all over her body from Zhong Yong’s despicable appearance. Such a big guy was acting coquettishly like Xiaoying? What was he thinking?
Zhong Yong pouted his lips in grievance. Master was always pleased when Xiaoying was acting coquettishly to her. She agreed to everything. If he acted coquettishly to Master, why would Master scold him?
Zhong Yong suddenly felt a chill and turned around to see his big brother glaring at him with a dark expression. Zhong Yong scratched his head and took a step back, then another step back. This time, he was sure his big brother was glaring at him.
“Big brother.”
Zhong Yong timidly called out, “Big Brother. “He still didn’t know what he had done wrong? Why was he angry?
“Work.”
Ji Shuisheng ordered him angrily. He pulled Zhong Yong behind him and used his body to separate him from Su Qing.
Su Qing found Ji Shuisheng’s jealousy funny. There was a hint of a smile in her eyes, but Ji Shuisheng looked at her gloomily. How could she laugh?
Su Qing raised her eyebrows and played with Ji Shuisheng for a rare moment. Ji Shuisheng looked at her helplessly, raising his hand to hook her nose.
“Still laughing?”
Ji Shuisheng also felt that his jealousy was a little unreasonable. Zhong Yong only had the IQof a five or six-year-old child. He would not have any dirty thoughts, but he did not like seeing other men touch Su Qing.
“How is it? Do you need me to do it?”
Ji Shuisheng was a little embarrassed to see the mischievous look in Su Qing’s eyes, so he changed the topic to forging weapons.
They had iron ore and could mine it after they could forge weapons. What they lacked the most now was manpower.
Mo City’s army was not even enough to defend Mo City, and they could not spare any manpower to help him mine and transport ores.
“No need. How’s your talk with Uncle Cheng?”
Su Qing did not ask Ji Shuisheng for help. She had more important things to do. “Uncle Cheng went back and leaked the news. Let’s see who will pass the news?” When it came to serious matters, Ji Shuisheng put away his jealousy and said to Su Qing with a solemn expression.
He didn’t want spies to appear in the Xiao Family’s army. These people were personally trained by his father, but the fact was that if no one tipped them off, those men in black wouldn’t be able to find the location of the detonators accurately.
“We can’t tell anyone about our plan before we find the spy. The human heart is
hard to predict..”
