Good luck every time

"Second sister, if you continue like this, you'll be easily targeted, right?"

Xiaoman didn’t have this understanding before, but after experiencing what happened last time, she realized how dangerous it is for girls outside.

Li Ruyi smiled faintly.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on!"

Xiaoman now looks much more shameless when she dresses as a boy. She even changed her appearance to make herself look somewhat similar to Li Ershi.

"Really? I always feel that this is not appropriate..."

After hearing this, Li Er turned around and looked at Xiaoman. His eyes were very calm.

Beauty is a weapon, but how effective the weapon is depends on who holds it.

The brother and sister have been working together since their debut. They have come a long way from humble beginnings, and no matter they are fighting against the village tyrants in Sanjia Village, the gangsters in the county, or the big shots in the capital, they have always supported each other.

Li Er's bottom line is not high. He has no psychological burden in using some low-class methods that others look down upon.

At this moment, he did not feel any burden at all about Li Ruyi's behavior of taking advantage of his own advantages, and he did not think there was anything wrong with it.

What he needs to do is to try his best to ensure that his own interests are not harmed in this game.

Xiaoman was very sensitive and felt Li Er's gaze in an instant. She raised her head and frowned unconsciously.

The three of them looked at each other, and Li Ruyi smiled and touched her head.

"This is not your road, just take a look!"

Li Ruyi doesn't care how high Xiaoman's moral standards are.

Xiaoman has been the 'Mr. Xiaoman' in the village since she became intelligent. She has more courage than Li Jixiang in letting go of things, and more compassion than Li Ruyi.

After all, the two sisters live in two different worlds and will eventually take two different paths.

Xiaoman still frowned, as if she sensed something but didn't fully understand it.

The three of them felt something was strange standing here. Li Ruyi looked around and saw a flag floating not far away. He looked at Li Er and Xiaoman and walked over on his own.

Li Er reached out to take her horse and then pulled Xiaoman's reins.

"I'll wait here, you guys go over and take a look!"

Xiaoman withdrew his attention, gave the reins to Li Er, and quickly caught up with Li Ruyi.

The shop was about three or four houses away from the yard they had just been to.

The shop had no door, only a thick cotton curtain hung with finely polished wooden strips sewn on it to secure it.

This wooden strip has been used for many years, and the places where it is often turned over are more shiny.

As Li Ruyi walked in, he was greeted by a cold and murderous aura.

The room was simple, with only a counter and four walls.

There were many boxes on the shelves behind the counter, and all four walls were hung with all kinds of weapons.

Xiaoman's eyes suddenly lit up.

Li Ruyi was also a little surprised. She looked around the room.

There are not only swords, spears, swords and halberds in this room, but also armor and bows and crossbows of various shapes.

The Great Qi Dynasty banned bows and crossbows, so it took Li Ruyi a lot of effort to get a bow for Li Er when he was in the capital.

On the way here, she had seen many homemade bows and crossbows from the bandits, but those things had limited lethality and were troublesome to carry with them. When it came to actual combat, they were not that powerful, so she was too lazy to bring them with her.

Li Ruyi once had a crossbow, which was given to her by Han Shian in her early years.

That was a homemade crossbow. At first, Li Ruyi could use it to scare people, but later, as her martial arts became more and more powerful, the crossbow became more and more useless!

It’s not that Li Ruyi had never thought about making a stronger and more powerful crossbow, but he really didn’t get it.

And on the wall here, there is a row of crossbows hanging clearly.

There are various shapes and sizes, large and small.

Looking at the shiny copper expansion machine, Li Ruyi's eyes widened instantly.

No wonder the county government has everything. Even things that are banned by the imperial court are put up for sale. What else is there?!

Just as Li Ruyi and Xiaoman were looking at the surroundings with drooling, someone in the backyard heard the noise and opened the door from behind.

He was a strong man who was six feet tall. Ordinary doors seemed narrow to him, and he even had to lower his head and lean sideways to enter.

In winter, he wore thin clothes, with the sleeves of his coarse cloth shirt rolled up, revealing the calluses and scars left by years of smoke and fire.

When he saw Li Ruyi and Xiaoman, he was stunned for a moment, and the big beard on his face trembled.

But soon, he discovered something was wrong.

Li Ruyi and Xiaoman are both warriors, and both carry swords.

It’s just because this knife has been with them for too long, and they get along extremely well with each other. It seems to have been assimilated into their temperaments, causing people to subconsciously ignore it.

But this sturdy man is a blacksmith, a blacksmith who specializes in forging weapons. Whether it is Li Ruyi or Xiaoman, they are not as attractive to this man as the swords on their bodies.

"You...your knife looks familiar..."

In order to prevent Ding Bai from discovering any flaws, Li Ruyi had already processed the Xiang family knife from the inside out.

Not only is the hilt wrapped with exquisite decorations, the ring is also wrapped with red thread and decorated, and the scabbard has been refurbished from the inside out. Not only is there a brand new copper buckle, but the leather surface is also carved with layers of water cloud patterns. If a few gems are added, it will be so exquisite that it looks like an ornament placed in someone's study!

Li Ruyi took a long time to get used to it after she had packed up, but she didn't expect that this person looked familiar at first glance, which frightened Li Ruyi for a moment.

This is much more frightening than being targeted because of your beauty.

She asked nonchalantly.

"Ah? I bought this knife from a merchant. Could it be that it was made by you?"

The man frowned and shook his head.

"This knife doesn't look like the size I made. The blade of my straight-blade knife is half an inch longer than this one. It seems that the people who use your knife are not very tall, so this length is enough for them!"
