"Tianming, Uncle is going to the Mohist City of Traps with the people of the Xiang Clan. Miss Rong will send you to the City of Traps after treating your illness. You have to be independent here and don't cause trouble, understand?”Ge Nie said earnestly.
"Mm. Uncle, are you leaving now?”Tian Ming asked. He had spent most of his time with Ge Nia recently, so he probably wouldn't be used to it without him.
"I'll be leaving in a while. Tianming, listen, you're already a man, so you have to be a man. Don't ask me for help when you encounter trouble, you have to think of a way to solve it yourself first.”Ge Nia said. He didn't know how far he could go, but he hoped that Tianming would grow faster. At that time, even if he was surprised…he wouldn't have to worry so much about Tianming.
"Don't worry, uncle. I understand!" Tianming said and followed behind them, watching them board the ship.
"Brat, wish your big brother a safe journey!”Shaoyu sat on the boat and waved at Tianming.
"Tsk!"
Tianming turned his head and waited for the boat to travel a few meters before turning back and throwing a small stone.
"Ouch." Shaoyu felt something hit the back of his head. When he turned around, he saw Tianming making a face. It was obvious who did it.
Shaoyu helplessly spread his hands and then followed everyone on the road to the Mohist City of Traps.
When the boat was far away, Tianming saw Old Man Ban take out a piece of wood from his sleeve. He saw that the piece of wood could still move! A pair of wings on its back slowly spread out. A wooden bird head raised its head, and two legs stretched out.
The more Tianming looked at it, the more confused he became." Hey, Old Man Ban, why is your bird model matched with duck feet?!"”
" Uh…" Old Man Ban took the bird back." This is a failed model. I took the wrong one."”
"No matter how much he failed, he couldn't possibly attach a pair of duck feet to a bird model!”Tianming was very disdainful at the side. Why pretend to be a duck's paw? He might as well put this bird model into two palms.
Old Man Ban raised his eyebrows and scolded," Little brat, what do you know? Haven't you heard the old saying that working with chickens and ducks is not tiring?”
"This…I really haven't heard of it. Speaking of which, is it dried chicken or duck?”
"This…I'll study it when I get back.”Old Man Ban took out a bird model and slowly waved its wings. Then, he put a letter into a small bamboo tube and tied it to his feet.
Seeing the wooden bird fly up, Tianming opened his mouth wide. "This wooden bird can still fly!" He's flying so fast!"
"Hehe, the machine-operated bird was developed by our Mo family. Others can only admire this invention.”Master Ban stroked his pale beard and said slowly, as if he was afraid that Tianming couldn't hear him clearly.
Tian Ming smiled slyly." Master Ban, can you give me a machine-operated bird?"”
For the sake of the machine-operated bird, Tianming had even changed the way he addressed him. In the past, he used to call him Old Man Ban, but now, he respectfully called him Master.
"No, no, how can I let you touch this kind of thing!”Old Man Ban wanted to leave, but he realized that Tianming had jumped behind him and wrapped his arms around his neck.
"Old Man Ban, just give it to me. I'll take good care of it!”
"I said no means no. This old man has seen all kinds of storms and waves over the years. Do you think you can stump me with your shamelessness?”Tianming grabbed Master Ban's fake arm and lifted it into the air. Tianming could only wave his hands and feet in the air, unable to find a place to put his strength.
Old Man Ban loosened his grip and fell down at dawn. He turned around to leave, but found that he couldn't lift one of his feet, as if he was being pulled by something.
"Why are you pulling me?!" Old Man Ban scolded when he turned around.”
"Hehe ~" Tianming laughed foolishly."Wooden bird ~"
Tianming pulled a thin thread, and on the other end of the thread was the duck-web wood-headed bird.
The wind was quite strong, and the wooden bird was " soaring " in the air. Old Man Ban looked at Tianming who was running back and forth, and his face was filled with black lines. This kid had turned a mechanical bird that couldn't fly into a kite...
All of a sudden, the line snapped. In an instant, Tianming lost control of the machine-operated bird. The machine-operated bird rushed into the house where Duanmu Rong was in a perfect arc.
The machine-operated bird broke through the window and rushed into the house.
The door creaked and Tianming quickly hid behind Old Man Ban. Duanmu Rong walked out of the door.
"If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll kick you out!”Duanmu Rong pointed at Old Man Ban with both hands and said coldly to Tianming, indicating that he was the one who did it.
It was finally dinner time.
Tianming, Yue 'er, Duanmu Rong, and Old Man Ban sat around a small table to eat.
"Oh…it smells so good! It had been a long time since he had eaten such fragrant rice.”Tianming wolfed down the food.
"Hehe ~" Yue 'er laughed at the side."This is the rice seed that the Mo family's giant personally nurtured. Of course it's very good."”
" Mm." Tianming kept adding rice to his mouth." Your ancestor is really amazing."”
In the past, Yue 'er, Duanmu Rong, and the other two old men would always leave a lot of dishes behind when they ate. This time, because it was dawn, they had specially added a few more dishes. They did not expect that they would be swept clean.
There was still a large piece of beef left on the plate in the middle of the table. Tianming looked at it and wanted to eat it.
Chu stretched out his hand to grab the beef slice, only to realize that the other end of the beef slice had also been grabbed by a pair of chopsticks.
As Tianming spoke, he looked up with his pair of chopsticks and saw Duanmu's cold face. She was also looking at him at this moment...
The two of them froze. When they came over, they put away their chopsticks at the same time…
" Ahem…" Old Man Ban thought of something when he saw this, but then he felt that it was not good to do so. It was too rude, especially in such an awkward atmosphere. However, he could not help but cough instead.
" Uh…" Tianming's expression was also very interesting. He was depressed and embarrassed. He put his chopsticks into his mouth and bit down.
"Go to work after dinner!" Duanmu Rong said to Tianming, then put down her chopsticks and left.
Tianming looked at Duanmu Rong's back and stuck out his tongue. Leader: " Hmph, I just snatched a piece of her flesh. You want me to work? You're too petty."”
"What's wrong? Silly boy, do you still want to eat white rice here?”Old Man Ban, who had calmed down, criticized.
"What? I'm an honored guest. How can you make me work? Right, Yue 'er?”
"Your head. What else can you do besides causing us trouble? After dinner, go wash the dishes. Also, the pile of firewood in the backyard will definitely be yours.”Old Man Ban put down his chopsticks and left.
"It's like this, Tianming. This is the rule left behind by the ancestor of the Mo family: not doing anything for a day, not eating for a day.”
Yue Er gently explained, making Tian Ming feel better.
