Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 6 Apprenticeship

Li An was not poor and generous. The reason why he gave half of it was because he might not have been able to discover the Huang Jing without the stone pillar.

On the other hand, Li An also thought that Shi Lin could take him with him when he entered the mountains in the future.

Shi Lin didn't know what Li An was thinking. Hearing this, he quickly shook his head and refused, saying, "No, it's because you know him. Otherwise, even if you dig it out and put it in front of me, I wouldn't know it. We can't take this money."

"But…"

"There's nothing wrong with it. If you insist on giving it, don't come to my house again."

Shi Lin interrupted Li An directly and said somewhat unhappily.

Seeing that Shi Lin was angry, Li An didn't dare to mention it again. He thought about buying some wine for Shi Lin after selling it.

"Dad, don't you want to teach me how to set up a trap? When should we do it?" Shi Zhu said impatiently when he saw that the two of them were talking endlessly.

Li An has been digging for Huang Jing for so long, and he has long lost his temper.

But Li An was too busy digging for Huang Jing to pay attention to him, and his father wouldn't let him run around.

"What else are you trying to do? With my roar just now, the rabbits didn't dare to come over for a short time." Shi Lin said angrily.

There is an idiom called Cunning Rabbit with Three Nests, which means that rabbits generally have several nests.

With the rabbit's temperament, when Shizhu was chasing the butterfly, he roared like that, and Li An dug up Huangjing here and made such a big noise, the rabbit would not come here for at least a few days.

Shi Lin led the two of them to continue moving forward, looking for traces of wild beasts, setting traps or making traps. They were busy until noon, and then stopped to rest by a small river.

After washing his face in the river, Shi Lin ordered the two of them to pick up some firewood and come back, while he held a spear and inserted fish by the river.

This time when he went out, Shi Lin not only brought a set and tools for setting traps, but also a long gun and a homemade bow.

The bow's workmanship was ordinary, but the gun didn't look simple.

The gun body was made of unknown wood. It was dark black in appearance. It looked like it had been aged for some time, and the gun body was already patinated.

The gun head is bright, with three blood grooves open. The connection between the gun head and the gun barrel also has this complicated pattern. Although it has faded due to time, it does not hide its beauty.

Li An was not an ignorant villager. He said he didn't know much about ancient weapons, but he also knew that such a spear was not something ordinary hunters could possess.

He was a little curious and wanted to ask, but in the end he held back.

When Li An and Shi Zhu came back with firewood, Shi Lin was already cleaning fish by the river.

Li An took a look and saw that there were three fish in total, including two crucian carps the size of an adult's palm and a carp weighing more than two kilograms.

"Uncle Shi, did you catch the fish so quickly?" Li An said in surprise.

It only took seven or eight minutes for him and Shi Zhu to leave, which was too fast.

"No one catches fish in the river here, so there are quite a lot of them."

Shi Lin lowered his head to clean the fish and said casually.

Li An increasingly realized that there was something unusual about Stone Forest. Could it be that he had encountered some hidden master?

He thought that it would be good if he could learn some martial arts from Shi Lin.

First of all, medical conditions were poor in ancient times. Learning martial arts could strengthen the body and make it less likely to get sick.

Secondly, public security was poor in ancient times. If you were really in danger, you could protect yourself.

However, he thought that Shi Zhu didn't know martial arts, so he felt that he might have thought too much.

Li An shook his head and started a fire.

……

I don’t know if it’s because Shi Lin’s skill at grilling fish is good, or because it’s been too long since he’s traveled through time and he hasn’t eaten meat, so he’s a little greedy.

There was no seasoning on the fish, and the aroma it gave off when grilled made his mouth water.

Seeing that the two crucian carp were almost cooked, Shi Lin took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, opened it, grabbed some salt and sprinkled it on it, roasted it for a while and said, "Aniu, you eat that carp, but it's not ready yet." , have to wait.”

"Uncle Shi, I have a small appetite. The carp is too big for me to finish, so you should eat it." Li An shook his head.

The carp weighed more than two kilograms. Even without the internal organs and bones, there was not much meat after grilling it. With his appetite, he could definitely finish it, but he felt embarrassed to ask for it.

Shi Lin hesitated for a moment, handed Li An and Shi Zhu a roasted crucian carp each, and said, "You and Goudan eat first. There are still cakes in the backpack."

"Thank you, Uncle Shi." Li An said gratefully.

He ran out secretly, so he could only prepare some water secretly, but no food at all.

"Brother Li San, give it!"

Shi Zhu took out the big cake from his backpack and handed one to Li An.

"Thank you."

Li An took the flatbread and started eating the grilled fish.

Although this meal was actually eaten outdoors, it was the best meal he had eaten since time travel.

Shi Lin waited for the carp to be grilled and then sat aside to eat.

After Li An finished eating, he glanced at Shi Lin who was still eating, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Uncle Shi, are you good at martial arts?"

Just as Shi Lin brought the fish to his mouth, he was stunned for a moment before taking a bite.

Spit out the thorns in his mouth, took a bite of the cake, chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and said: "My ancestors knew some farming techniques. They used to be street performers, and they have been passed down from generation to generation."

"Then why haven't you taught Goudan?" Li An asked.

Shi Lin was silent for a while, then glanced at his son who was sitting aside and giggling, and said, "Goudan doesn't do anything lightly or harshly. It's for his own good that I won't teach him."

Li An opened his mouth when he heard this. He originally wanted to ask Shi Lin if he could teach him, but he hesitated and still didn't say anything.

Shi Lin seemed to see through Li An's thoughts and said, "You want to learn?"

"Uncle Shi, are you willing to teach me?" Li An said in surprise.

Shi Lin took a look at Li An, shook his head, and said, "You are too thin, and practicing martial arts can easily hurt your body."

As the saying goes, the poor in culture and the rich in martial arts, not to mention that practicing martial arts requires some medicinal materials to build up strength, at least the nutrition can keep up.

Otherwise, practicing martial arts will not only fail to strengthen the body, but will actually make people useless.

Li An smiled bitterly when he heard this, but he had forgotten about it.

Shi Lin was silent for a while and said: "But if you really want to learn, after the Polygonatum japonica is sold, you can eat more meat to nourish your body, and I can teach you."

"Really?" Li An said in surprise.

Shi Lin nodded.

"Dad, I want to learn too." Shi Zhu didn't understand what the two said, but he heard that Li An wanted to learn, so he also shouted to learn.

Shi Lin was hesitant when he heard this. He was just a son, so he naturally wanted to give everything he knew to his son.

Moreover, Shizhu is born with divine power and is very suitable for practicing martial arts.

But Shi Zhu was not very good at thinking. When he was angry, he would not strike lightly or harshly. He was worried that his son would get into big trouble in the future if he learned martial arts.

"Uncle Shi, although Goudan has some intellectual deficiencies, he is not stupid. If they hadn't bullied him too hard, he wouldn't have beaten them. I don't think Uncle Shi should worry so much. He can't be bullied." Fight back?" Li An said.

Shi Lin was silent for a while after hearing this, then looked at Li An and said, "If you want to learn martial arts from me, you have to become my teacher."

He was nice to Li An before because Li An didn't dislike his son.

After hearing Li An's persuasion, he had the idea of ​​​​accepting a disciple.

It's not that Li An is very talented. The reason why he wants to accept Li An as his apprentice is because Shizhu only listens to Li An besides his words.

Li An has a good character. If he becomes his apprentice, even if he is gone in the future, he will be able to rest assured that Li An will take care of Shi Zhu.
