Chapter 5 Suspect Apprentice Gan Thirteen

After the Miss Liu family called the little carpenter a "rogue", she never came to the construction site again. What followed was that the food at the small stove became less good. The oily braised pork that could be eaten every now and then disappeared and turned into bacon. There was not much bacon. It was mixed with too much bracken and tasted unpleasant.

This made the little carpenter miss the days when Miss Liu was there.

In fact, during this period of time in the Liu family, it was a rare and comfortable time for the little carpenter who had followed his master to travel around the world since childhood and rushed to the wharf.

Especially the food in the small stove made the carpenter feel endlessly.

After all, since childhood, hunger has been filled with the little carpenter's memory.

Being able to eat meat is what he has always believed to be the greatest happiness.

Especially the fat and oily meat, when I think of this, the little carpenter who concentrates on working, couldn't help but smack her lips and recall the satisfaction of the oil spreading in her mouth.

However, the little carpenter did have an engagement, and it was decided by his master, so even if he had the temptation of a big fat meat, he would not dare to disobey it.

After all, in his heart, the master is heaven, earth, and everything.

When I was young, the little carpenter was beaten and hungry because he was disobedient. His obedience and dependence on his master had been integrated into his bones.

Life at the construction site became boring because of the departure of Miss Liu's family. However, the little carpenter also saved a lot of effort and devoted himself to building houses and building work. He started working from dawn until the sun sets. Then he followed a group of villagers working on the construction site to take a shower at the small river at the east end of the town. Sometimes he had a strong temper and could get up without having to get up for a long time, winning countless cheers.

The little carpenter is so powerful.

The little carpenter was in harmony with others, but Lu Da seemed a little cold and introverted. In addition to smoking, he also liked to drink. After work every day, he would go to the wine shop in the town to buy wine and get drunk before he could fall asleep.

Of course, no matter what, Lu Da will never miss the situation.

The addition of the master and apprentice has quickly promoted the construction of the Liu family’s new house, making Mr. Liu very happy.

Miss Liu's family had a few days old and probably couldn't stay idle. She ran over a few more times. This time the little carpenter would not say anything nonsense, and did things in a regular manner, and would do whatever he asked him.

Sure enough, when the Miss Liu family was happy, the food supply level came up a lot.

During this period, Wu Banxian came a few times and went to talk to Lu Da. He made a living by talking, and he developed the ability to "talk about people and talk about ghosts". He was respectful and enthusiastic. Lu Da was willing to talk to him. He even had a small table to get some peanuts and drink.

After getting along these days, the two seem to be old friends.

After many times, Wu Banxian met the little carpenter and would talk to him and care about the little carpenter.

The little carpenter is a little disliked this slick old man with a goatee. He always feels that there is a hint of indescribable behind his enthusiasm, but this is just his idea. The so-called "no slap people with smiley faces", and this person is so close to his master, so he is respectful and dare not neglect.

Wu Banxian knew the skills of the little carpenter and was particularly interested. He told the little carpenter that his reputation had spread. Many rich people in the county knew about it. Someone asked him to ask when he was free and helped to prepare some furniture. The wages were not a problem, and the wood was also good wood.

The little carpenter told Wu Banxian that the construction period here is relatively tight, and the master and Mr. Liu had a verbal agreement, so after the matter here is finished, they will consider taking on other work.

Moreover, I have to ask his master about these things, because of the matters in Sandaokan Town, his master may have a new place to go and may not be staying here.

Hearing this, Wu Banxian sighed and kept saying, "What a pity, what a pity."

He looked at the little carpenter like looking at a piece of unrecognizable jade.

Time passed by little by little, and the project was moving forward in an orderly manner. In the evening of that day, the sunset was everywhere. After the little carpenter finished a carving chair, he stretched his waist and was about to find some work. Suddenly, Lu Da came over and said to him: "You go to Zhangji Shop to buy a pig elbow, cut half a pound of pork liver, a pack of peanuts, and go to Deyuelou to buy a pot of corn wine..."

The little carpenter was very surprised and said, "Is it okay in the town?"

This Jipu and Deyue Tower are both in the county town of Gancheng County, and there is still eighteen miles away from this place. There is a mountain ridge in the middle. It takes a lot of effort to climb over it. At this time, it is all evening, and it will be dark when it comes back and forth.

When Lu Da heard this, he glanced at the little carpenter, gave him money, and said, "If you ask you to go, you will go, why are you talking about it?"

Although the little carpenter felt that his master's request today was a bit abnormal, he did not dare to disobey his master's orders, put on cloth shoes and prepared to leave. At this time, the master also arranged for craftsmen and helped the workers to leave. This time was earlier than usual. People in the village thought that they were supervising craftsmen and felt sorry for everyone who was too tired to work under the scorching sun. They thanked them in their hearts. When they went out, they met the little carpenter again. A few familiar young people shouted: "Thirteen, go swimming in the river? Go happily..."

The little carpenter waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "I have to go to the county town and buy wine for my master."

Someone is concerned: "Go to the county town? I'm so late and I'm still going to the county town. It's dark when I go back and forth. You have to be careful on the way. There are wild beasts on the ridge of Dongshan Mountain, and the world is not peaceful. If you encounter bandits, you will lose your life."

The little carpenter was a little scared, to be honest?

The older next to him smiled and said, "He scared you. But there is no food in the town, so why bother to buy it in the county?"

The little carpenter said that my master ordered, how could I know?

A bald man said, "Oh, it's really hard for you to be this apprentice."

Another young man from a carpenter team said enviously: "Thank you for your hard work, but you can learn real skills. If Master Lu is willing to teach me the skills, let alone ask me to go to the city, even if I rush to Tanzhou, I would be willing."

Others laughed and said, "You turtle son, you think, but like you, the clumsy, why should Master Ren Lu teach you? Do you think everyone is as talented as Thirteen?"

Another question was: "Thirteen, your master's true ability is to ward off evil spirits and catch ghosts. Have you learned these things?"

The little carpenter shook his head and said that my master would not let me touch that part. He said that people who do this have too many taboos and need great luck to save me. I have a poor life and cannot learn these things.

An elderly man sighed and said it was a pity, a pity.

The little carpenter left the construction site with everyone, and then followed the main road and headed towards the county town.

He is a young man, born with a good strength. He once learned a swordsman called "Suppressing Qianling" with Xiong Cao, a famous swordsman in Qianyang. He was a trainer. Although his master used the rules to ask him not to fight with others, he had a foundation, so he was fast and walked as fast as he could fly. He would not feel too tired. Instead, he could go out for breathing, which was quite good.

It was getting dark and he rushed to the county town. Gancheng County is the residence of Chenyuan Road, Xiangxi. There are troops here, so it was very lively at night. Zhang Jishou and Deyue Tower were not closed. The little carpenter bought wine and food, but did not dare to delay any delay, so he hurried back.

After all, it was a mountain road. I was a little tired when I returned, and it was already dark. Even by taking advantage of the moonlight, I had to walk carefully, so my footwork naturally slowed down.

The little carpenter was worried that he would be scolded by his master if he went back late, so even though he was tired, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

When passing Dongshanliang, there was a sound of horse hooves behind him. The little carpenter turned around and the first thing that caught his eye was two torches. Then two horse-riding men rushed past the road. When passing by the little carpenter, the leading man subconsciously looked at him.

The man had a fierce face, with scars on his left face and his eyes were shining. When he looked at the little carpenter, he seemed to be stabbed in his face by a short sword, and he couldn't help but feel palpitations.

Fortunately, the man did not stop and rode his horse past, leaving only his back and the jumping torch in the distance.

A case has occurred?

The little carpenter was a little uneasy. The uneasy was like a beam of flames. Once it emerged, it burned in his heart, making him unable to help but speed up and rush towards Sandaokan Town.

He resisted his fatigue and tried his best to finally arrive at Sandaokan Town. Standing at a high place and looking down, he saw that the brightest lights were the Liu family's new home construction site.

Things in the world are indeed what you fear.

When the little carpenter rushed to the construction site, he found a large circle of people outside, including men, women, young and old, full of people. The little carpenter struggled to squeeze in. Finally, someone recognized him and shouted loudly: "The apprentice of the master supervisor is here, please give up."

Hearing this, someone immediately gave in and the little carpenter was finally able to move forward.

When he walked into the inner circle, he saw two horses tied to the wooden stake next to him, and thought it was the two men he met halfway.

He continued to walk forward with cooked food wrapped in lotus leaves and a jar of wine. At this time, Dayong walked out of it, grabbed him and said, "Let's go and see the public."

At this moment, Dayong was no longer as kind as usual. He grabbed the little carpenter's hand tightly, like an iron hoop.

This attitude is a bit like I'm afraid that people will run away.

The little carpenter was almost taken in. He was a little surprised and asked Dayong: "Where is my master? Where is my master?"

Dayong did not answer, but continued to escort him. After passing the shed in front of the construction site, the little carpenter found a man lying in a pool of blood. The man was facing up, half of his face was gone, and his brain was flowing all over the floor, but he still recognized that this man was the Liu family's night watchman.

Is someone dead?

The little carpenter became more and more frightened, and Dayong also took him to a messy construction site, and then said to the front: "Master Lin, this person is Gan Shisan, the apprentice of the suspect Lu Da."
