Scenery of the North Chapter 22 Xia Luo's Rivers and Lakes(1/2)

Xia Luo snatched the steamed buns in Lu An's hand, took another piece of cucumber, and started eating them.

Lu An looked at his movement and felt amused.

Xia Luo was the first friend Lu An met after he arrived in this city. He was also a pitiful person. He had no father or mother and had no support. He grew up in the small streets and alleys of Jiangcheng City since he was a child, picking up garbage, stealing things, snatching house beams, and robbing territory. He was a gang of gangs. There were countless orphans like Jiangcheng, and many of them escaped here with their parents since childhood. As a result, they became orphans if they were not careful in this cannibalistic city. Therefore, among these orphans, there are many noble sons with prominent identities, princes from any country, sons of the Grand Secretary, etc.

Sharo is one of them, claiming to be the son of a general. His father was defeated and his country was destroyed. His family was destroyed. His father fled here. He first arrived and did not know the way. He was stripped naked by the city for no reason. In the end, his father died and his family was dispersed, leaving him alone. He was only three or four years old at that time, and he didn't know how he survived.

Every time he talks about this, Lu An rolled his eyes, but Xia Luo began to advocate that he could walk as fast as he was so young, and escaped from the brink of death many times. He should be a martial arts genius, otherwise how could he have such talent? Unfortunately, when he was a child, he did not use his talent well and sneaked around all day long. Otherwise, he would have become a serious Youbanger, and he would have traveled around the world like those people, and he would be angry with Old Man Yao here every day.

Xia Luo is now a helper in a small blacksmith shop and makes a living. Old Man Yao is an old blacksmith there and has never given Xia Luo a good face. Although he is strict and harsh, he still gives him enough food.

When Lu An first arrived in Jiangcheng, he was urged by the old man to go to make a blacksmith. At first, he knew nothing and couldn't hold the hammer. As a result, he was seen by Xia Luo who was passing by and was wiped out. Lu An was ashamed of being said, thinking that he had met the master, and then asked for advice humbly. As a result, Xia Luo pretended to behave for a long time, but was exposed by the old man and left in shame. But after a few days, they met again. After two people of the same age were a little closer, especially when Xia Luo often took Lu An to do some stealing things, the two began to call brothers.

After eating, Xia Luo patted his stomach, then hit Lu An with his hand and said, "Why does this steamed bun feel a little shrunk? I haven't eaten much much lately? Have we already improved the food?"

When Lu An heard this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they thought about it and said, "This has been too frequent during this period. If this continues, no one dares to raise chickens and dogs in the city."

When the two old men next to him heard this, they snorted and said, "Stealing, you can't learn."

When Sharo heard this, he also snorted: "Isn't it just that I didn't bring half of you for you last time? You two stinky old men have eaten more, and do you still want it this time?"

"Hehe, I have to, of course, I have to, just don't forget." The old man immediately said with a smile.

Lu An watched these people sing and reunite here, and immediately said, "You promised so quickly, then you can steal?"

"Brother, my dear brother, don't, look at my leg last time and I almost got discounted. I'm still limping now. You go, who made you so skilled in martial arts? You can catch one by one?" Xia Luo immediately said with a bitter face.

"Don't you say that you are a martial arts genius, a genius. You can walk as fast as you three or four years old. How could you get discounted if you are so skilled? When did you even steal chickens on your back?" Lu An said sarcastically.

"That's right, I won't tell us if there is any benefit. If you go alone, you deserve to be discounted." The two old men next to me said.

When Sharo heard this, he acted as a striking attack. The two old men hurriedly evacuated and returned to their shop with the bowl.

"You can go back after eating the steamed bun, otherwise after a while, Old Man Yao will be looking for you all over the street with a hammer, while cursing." Lu An reminded.

When Sharo heard this, he suddenly became clever and nodded involuntarily, but immediately said toughly: "I'm afraid of him? I'm just a bad old man."

Lu An leaned against the wall, smiling without saying a word.

"Well, but, think about it, there are so many people in broad daylight that it is not safe. Otherwise, let's go tonight. I'll prepare and come to you later. If Old Man Yao is like Old Man Ming in your family, it would be great, alas." Xia Luo thought for a moment and said seriously.

Lu An nodded, looking as if it was yours.

Sharo nodded heavily and said inexplicably: "I also think it's safer tonight, listen to your little brother." After that, he would run away directly.

After running two steps, he heard a roar from afar: "Sharo, where have you gone? The stove is about to be destroyed."

"Damn old man, you can't even shit." Sharo's roar followed closely.

"You are the busiest people who have a lot of shit and urine?"

"If you have the ability, don't shit!"

...

Lu An cleaned up for a while and then lay down on the old man's bamboo chair.

As soon as I lay down, I found something strange. The scenery I saw on the bamboo chair was indeed different from the scenery I was standing with a blacksmith. One by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, was all in my eyes.

"Shameless." Lu An cursed inwardly, then stood up from the chair.

"No wonder this old man, who sits in this place every day, even the chairs are right in the angle. It's true that as Xia Luo said, men in the world are as lustful as young as a bachelor, old bachelor." Lu An said helplessly.

After complaining and belittled the two of them, Lu An felt bored. He spent his life on weekdays, but now he is empty all of a sudden and he really has nothing to do. Unexpectedly, he is addicted to it now. But if you think about it carefully, it is true that his personality is like this. He wants to do something well and he will not hesitate to be stubborn.

I was stunned for a while, thinking about this and that, and thinking about it, I felt a little sad when I thought about it. A year has passed and there are still four years left, so I have to go to find Su Mu. If I don’t go, if I accidentally meet in the future, it will probably be over. But now my strength is getting worse and worse. I don’t advance but retreat. The old man said that now I am an equivalent of a first-rate warrior, and my strength has been reduced by half. Apart from the strength I have learned from ironwork, I don’t know if I have this opportunity in the future.

Alas, I’m so worried. After a year, I’ll be reduced to the first grade. In another four years, what will happen to me? Is it still a question whether I’ll live or not?

In fact, Lu An always had a premonition in his heart that his injury might not be cured. The old man, such a master, would have to go outside and ask someone to solve it. I guess this time it was a bit uneasy. But thinking about how he survived was a great fortune, and now he should be content with this level. He just felt sorry for me, the little girl who was waiting for me for nothing.

Lu An's thoughts suddenly flew away, and he didn't know that someone was approaching.

"Brother Xiao An." Xia Luo sneaked into Lu An's ear and shouted.

Lu An was undoubtedly scared to death.

When I turned around, I kicked Xia Luo without hesitation.

"What did you say just now?" Lu An asked gritted his teeth.

"Brother, brother, brother, I was wrong." Sharo said lying on the ground.

Seeing that Lu An did not continue to commit violence, he patted his butt and stood up, sorted out his image, and said, "The people in the martial arts world cannot be so fussy. If you walk in the martial arts world, something will happen. If you can talk, don't do it easily. Fortunately, you meet my brother, so don't care, otherwise you would have splattered blood on the spot." After saying that, his hand gestured a few times.

Lu An ignored Sharo at all.

When Xia Luo saw what he said, no one paid attention to him. Seeing Lu An expression on the side with a depressed expression, his eyes were empty, his face was full of thoughts, he moved over and asked, "Looking at your appearance, I must be Sichun, I miss a woman, but judging by your age, I'm almost the same. I guess he's still a young man, right?"

"Get out!" Lu Andao.

"Okay." Xia Luo immediately moved to one side, afraid of another kick.

Sharo was swaying around in the blacksmith shop, without any intention of leaving.

Seeing the sword made by Lu An yesterday, he walked over, picked it up, and weighed it twice.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, the good looks are good, but unfortunately it's not useful, it's rubbish." Sharo mocked.

"Like it?" Lu An asked back.

"Hmm? You're okay with your appearance. You can barely deserve this identity. If you want to give it to me, I will barely accept it." After that, he was about to put it away and penetrated it into his waist, with a happy face.

"Let go, then get out." Lu Andao.

"Oh." Xia Luo put down honestly, then looked at Lu An with an innocent expression.

"I've been begging you for almost a year, why don't you give me a sword?" Sharo asked pitifully.

"You don't know how to practice martial arts and Taoism, why do you give you a sword?" Lu An said.

"But I must have a sword in my future." Xia Luo said stubbornly.

"You have been talking for a year, but you haven't seen you? Just because you lack a weapon? Then last time I gave you a kitchen knife, you didn't take it away." Lu An said.

"Volume, how can a knight who is walking in the world use a kitchen knife? Think about it, when confronting others, it is a bit embarrassing to take out a kitchen knife by himself? If another hero saves the beauty, a kitchen knife will make the beauty look at me as a hero, it will be too much." Xia Luo summarized a set of reasons.

"Why do you want to go out in the world so much?" Lu An asked in confusion.

When Sharo heard this, he jumped directly to the table, picked up the sword and gestured, and said, "A real man, if you don't go to the world, what's the use of this body? It's the unshirkable responsibility of our generation to be a hero, to save the suffering, and to save people in the world."

"Is this the reason why you have been a thief?" Lu An asked back.

"Uh?" Sharo squatted on the table and laughed.

"Get off the table and wipe it clean." Lu An said lightly.

"Oh." Sharo jumped down obediently, then wiped the tables on both sides with his sleeves.

After being tossed by Xia Luo for a while, Lu An lay on the bamboo chair, closed his eyes to rest. Xia Luo pulled a small stool and sat next to Lu An and asked, "What do you think about this world outside?"

Lu An replied silently: "If you want to know, just go and have a walk."

Xia Luo hesitated for a moment and laughed, "Didn't you walk around? Tell me and see."

"I've said it several times, why do you still have to listen? And I was not a world of martial arts at that time." Lu An said helplessly.

"I have forgotten what you said last time. Let me tell you, Brother An?" Xia Luo said with anticipation.

Lu An had no choice but to talk about the past when he returned home from the north of the Sei River, and then talked about the showdown between the old man and the old man.

Sharo's eyes shone with serious expressions until he finally slapped his thighs and shouted, "Okay."

After Lu An finished speaking, he spread his hands.

Xia Luo still felt unsatisfied and said, "When we go to the world, we will become a famous figure in the world. We will stomp our feet casually, and the whole world will shake, hahaha."

"Yes, yes, otherwise I'm sorry for the kitchen knife in your hand." Lu An said with a smile.

"Xiao An, when do you think we will set off together?" Xia Luo asked again.

"When my injury is healed, you have a sword yourself, go and take you to drink and eat meat, go around the world, and help you cheat a little lady, how about it?" Lu An said with a smile.

"Is this a big shot? I'll take you to do these things, why don't you take you to Fengqi Tower next door to see the world?" Xia Luo said with a smile.

"Return to Fengqilou? I'm so cowardly that I'm just like something. After entering, I'll just drool. Wouldn't you be ashamed to say this?" Lu An smiled when he heard what Xia Luo said again.

After hearing this, Xia Luo's face turned red and he stuttered: "Blind, blind, nonsense, I have been in the small world for more than ten years. Here, who doesn't know the name of me, Xia Luo? I don't know how many girls I am in the arms are. I'm so tired of eating at the age of ten. You, you, you, you actually say I'm ashamed?"

When Lu An heard this, he was excited. Xia Luo used to brag about himself every time. How powerful it was, the old man summed up. He said, "I have a lustful heart but no courage, and I have been teased by the old man."

Now it started again, grabbing Sharo's hand and walked out.

Xia Luo was anxious and stuttered: "You, you, what do you want to do, what do you want to do?"

Lu An said with a smile: "Take you to Fengqilou and find Mr. Shang to ask her to find someone to help you get a meat dish."

"I won't go, I, I don't have money. If you are as beautiful as Sister Cai'er, you can consider it, but I won't go either, I don't have money." Xia Luo was anxious again.

"It's okay, you don't have money, I have money. Although I don't have much money, I should be enough for a visit because of my acquaintance. Is this kind of thing inevitable? The love between children is also a major feature of the world. Aren't you familiar with me? Teach me well." Lu An said with a chuckling, but his hands tighter.

Xia Luo sat on the ground and struggled desperately, "No, don't go, don't go."

Seeing Xia Luo's appearance, Lu An smiled and let go, saying, "I'm afraid, if you don't go, just don't go."
