Chapter 2 The butcher's knife that was offered up

Liu Yichen's doubts make sense.

Zhang Xiaodao was born in the home of the butcher who was the best at slaughtering pigs in Lingyin County. Apart from the occasional rumor and irrelevant words, his life trajectory is almost the same as that of the peers in the county.

When it comes to acquaintances outside the county, apart from those traveling merchants who always froze and cowhide, he really couldn't think of anyone else Xiaodao knew.

Liu Yichen, who just couldn't figure it out, did not expect that Zhang Xiaodao had his biggest hobby since he was a child - sleeping!

Zhang Xiaodao has nothing to do with sleeping. No matter when and where, as long as he has the conditions to sleep, he will close his eyes without hesitation.

His sleepiness is extremely ugly, and he often drools. If his big snot is squirted in the air when he sleeps in winter, his big snot can be slid into ice.

Xiaodao's butcher father Zhang An once doubted whether his son had any disease. The doctor who was a little versatile in the county town hired three or four doctors who knew medical skills, and he invited Xiaodao to diagnose the fortune teller.

The county doctor said that it is not a problem for Xiaodao to love sleeping. The fortune teller said that Xiaodao is the reincarnation of a Buddhist sleeping arhat. Unfortunately, Zhang An ignored this obvious flattery. He did not give a penny more, but also drove the fortune teller away with a kitchen knife. He cursed: "Get out of here, will the monk reincarnation want the old Zhang family to break the roots? Old liar! Bah."

Later, the matter ended in failure and no one came up with it. Only the person involved, Zhang Xiaodao, knew that he loved sleeping and just wanted to see the understanding girl who was carved with pasta in his dream.

This magical dream has never stopped since Zhang Xiaodao came to this world.

He would tell her about the tall buildings and cannons in that world.

She would also tell him that today her fierce mother-in-law asked her to sit in front of a stone tablet to observe, and she would be beaten if she could not see that.

Zhang Xiaodao once threatened to use the pig-killing knife at home to scrape her fierce mother-in-law, which made her feel annoyed: "Mother-in-law is very powerful, wait until we grow up."

After waiting for fifteen years, Xiaodao did not steal the pig-killing knife that was offered to the house to shave the girl's mother-in-law, but the girl traveled thousands of miles to Lingyin County.

Looking at Wang Luohan, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, Zhang Xiaodao felt like he was a different life.

Traveling thousands of miles away just to marry you. Do you dare to marry you?

What kind of friendship is this?

In order to give back the heavy friendship like a mountain, Zhang Xiaodao decided to put on a coat for Wang Luohan first. After all, she was dressed too cool.

With a small knife coat, Wang Luohan did not feel the warmth brought to her by the coat, but there was a warm current in her heart. She thought to herself that love is indeed magical and magical, and then raised her face as smiling as a flower.

Zhang Xiaodao then smirked, and pinched Wang Luohan's face with rough hands, but did not say anything, as if everything was silent.

*********************************************

The sunset burned red, and six sled dogs were in groups, pulling three sledges to pull the shadows very long.

Zhang Xiaodao, who was sitting on the sled, narrowed his eyes and pointed to the distance and said, "Look, there is Lingyin County there."

Wang Luohan, who was hiding behind Xiaodao, stuck her head out and suddenly felt the cold wind coming like a knife. However, she couldn't bear to shrink her head, but she just hugged Xiaodao's waist tighter and harder with her hands.

The Lingyin County town in the distance was reflected in the sunset, and hundreds of curling smoke came out from the chimneys of snow-houses and drifted away in the wind.

"It's so beautiful." Wang Luohan exclaimed.

Zhang Xiaodao answered the question irrelevantly and said with a smile: "Sit down."

The sled dog pulled down the gentle slope, and the appearance of Lingyin County gradually expanded clearly in Wang Luohan's pupils. The ice-sculpted and snow-carved county town looked like a paradise, a place where the immortals lived.

After crossing the half-man high earth ice wall outside the county town, a big yellow dog at the entrance of the county town shook his bald tail and shouted loudly: "Wow wool!"

The big yellow dog looked so happy that he was welcoming the guests. In fact, Zhang Xiaodao and others knew that Wangcai had long fallen in love with the bitch pulling the sled.

"Wangcai, go there." Wang Daniu shouted loudly.

The big yellow dog, known as Wangcai, showed a contemptuous look, turned over and wheeled at the place where the sledge was going. The three sledges had to stop.

Seven spiritually-minded big dogs barked, as if communicating something. Zhang Xiaodao looked at the scene with a smile and said softly: "I'll go back first, Brother Daniu, this old lustful dog, Wangcai, needs to be disciplined."

Wang Daniu got off the sledge and waved his hand angrily, "You go first, I'll clean it up." As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves. Wangcai ran away when he saw that something was wrong.

Wang Daniu, who raised his head, saw Zhang Xiaodao and beauty disappearing from his sight. Liu Yichen's eyes were locked at the end of the road. Dong Yao twisted Liu Yichen's waist hard, and Liu Yichen exclaimed in surprise.

Dong Yao made a small move but didn't say anything, obviously not wanting to point out the matter.

Wang Daniu muttered, "This lustful pussy." He scolded Wang Cai, the big yellow dog. At this moment, he had a pun, which made Liu Yichen blush. Seeing Wang Daniu looking at him with an impermanent expression, he realized that the "lustful pussy" was not scolding him.

Dong Yao laughed out loud and said, "Let's go, Brother Daniu, Xuehao, please give Xiaodao tonight. Lao Zhang can only do this job of picking bones."

"Don't worry, let's go, you two. I'll catch the lustful pussy no matter what I say today and beat it up."

Liu Yichen did not dare to answer the conversation and drove the sled into the depths of Lingyin County.

Zhang Xiaodao, who had taken a step earlier in Lingyin County, drove Wang Luohan all the way. It was dinner time, and every household was busy cooking smoke.

The little knife that brought beauty naturally attracted the attention of the aunts and aunts. They waved their hands and greeted each other in high spirits, just to see what the woman behind them looked like.

However, Zhang Xiaodao was so dedicated to showing off and drinking all the way. The sled dog pulled the sled hard and disappeared from people's eyes, leaving behind smiling faces, holding up the gesture that seemed to say hello but was actually gossip.

The broken sign of Zhang's butcher shop quickly caught my eye. Zhang Xiaodao looked at the shabby courtyard and smiled: "It's time to get home, it smells so good inside. You can cover your nose."

"Zhang Xiaodao!" A loud shout came from the courtyard, which was filled with frost.

Zhang Xiaodao smiled and said, "My father is Zhang An, a professional butcher."

Wang Luohan smiled and heard an angry voice coming from the room.

"Baby, do you still know that you are back? Do you know that the end of the year is coming? How many animals will be killed in a day? I don't know how much love for your father at all!"

As the sound became more and more deafening, a fat man wearing a bib on his chest walked out.

The fat man's face was covered with sweat stains, and the black bib on his chest was covered with dirty blood. He was obviously working. As soon as he stood here, a scent of vomiting came.

Zhang Xiaodao, who held Wang Luohan's soft little hands, looked at Zhang An and said, "Dad, there are three months left. You are willing to volunteer for the [widow] woman, I am not willing to do it."

Zhang An could still hear Xiaodao's words at this time, and his eyes that were squeezed into a slit by his face staring at Wang Luohan.

"This girl?"

"Your future daughter-in-law." Zhang Xiaodao raised his neck and raised his chest, causing Wang Luohan to hold back his smile and said, "Hello, uncle."

Wang Luohan's voice sounded very nice, and it was like a fairy music when he came into Zhang An's fat ears. His expression began to change. Without answering Wang Luohan's polite greetings, he stared at Zhang Xiaodao.

Zhang Xiaodao watched the beads of sweat as big as beans slid down from his father Zhang An's forehead and dripped into the snow on the steps at the gate. An ominous omen arose naturally.

Suddenly, Zhang An pulled out the pig-killing knife that would appear on his waist and scolded: "Okay, Zhang Xiaodao, if you don't learn it, you've learned to kidnap people now!"

Killing people is a dialect in the northeast of Yizhou, which means human traffickers.

Zhang An's thinking is very simple. He has been slaughtering pigs for more than 40 years since he was born. Although he has never seen any big world, he knows how much his family is. The girl in front of him looks like a fairy and sighs that she is so blessed even if she takes a look.

But now, Zhang Xiaodao holds someone's hand and says he is his wife!

Zhang Xiaodao's catchphrase is called: "This is unscientific." In Zhang An's opinion, it would have been absolutely impossible if Zhang Xiaodao had not used some evil ways.

Seeing Zhang An draw the knife, Wang Luohan quickly pulled out the small hand held in Zhang Xiaodao's big hand and blocked Zhang Xiaodao. Zhang An grabbed him dirty and said, "Uncle, uncle, don't do this, is it because I'm not satisfied?"

Zhang An could fully feel Wang Luohan's anxiety. The pig-killing knife he held up was just a gesture of doing things, but why is everything in front of him so unreal?

This anxious look on his face, and he doesn't mind that the fairy who was buried in him doesn't seem to have been abducted, could it be... Could it be?

Zhang An put down the pig-killing knife in disappointment, looked at Zhang Xiaodao's face with a smug look not far away, and then looked at his daughter-in-law whom he had dreamed of not even asking for, and didn't know what to say, so he could only say, "Let's talk about it first."

The three of them walked through the dirt-filled and bloody store, and went straight into the backyard.

The backyard is not spacious. In addition to the snow that is not considered a scenic spot in Lingyin County, the blue bricks and ink tiles that fenced the courtyard are much cleaner and more upscale than the shops facing the street.

The three of them walked into the room in the center and walked past the dilapidated threshold. Wang Luohan saw a knife held up by an exquisite tiger-headed copper frame in the center of the wide hall. Naturally, there were many cooked foods and fruits underneath.

This knife is slightly longer than the pig-killing knife that Zhang An just took out, one foot long and one inch wide.

The blade has a round curve, but its surface is covered with dirt. It is pitch black and seems to have killed too many animals. No matter how you clean it up, it looks like this. There is no trace of cold light at the blade, and there is no curling blade or gap. It looks like a kitchen knife no matter how you look!

But Wang Luohan could see the extraordinaryness of this knife at a glance.

Just as her steps stopped, Zhang Xiaodao smiled and said, "This is the pig-killing knife I told you to shave your mother-in-law's name that was regarded as a treasure."

Zhang An immediately said unhappily: "What does it mean to be regarded as a treasure? This knife is a treasure sword that has been passed down from ten generations. It is invincible and cuts iron like mud!"

"It's really amazing." Wang Luohan exclaimed softly.

Zhang Anzhi was very proud. Zhang Xiaodao had indeed seen the power of this knife, but he still had half of the idea of ​​coaxing the old man and nodded, "It's amazing."

But Zhang Xiaodao didn’t know that the “awesome” he said was different from the “awesome” he said!
