Chapter 3 Tea Talk, Tea Feathers, Tea Art
Tang San's home.
After hearing what Old Jack said, Tang Hao put down the wine pot in his hand and said calmly.
"The best bow? He can't pull it open?"
After hearing what Tang Hao said, Old Jack thought of this question at this time.
Cao Yu is only a six-year-old child after all.
Even if Cao Yu has soul power, it is very difficult for him to pull a good bow...
Old Jack opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Tang San, who had been watching the show on the side, also stood up at this time.
"Cao Yu, change your request.
Let's not talk about whether you can pull the hunting bow or not. If you want to shoot accurately, you also need a lot of training.
If you play with bows and arrows randomly, you may not shoot the rabbit, but hurt the people in the village."
As he said, Tang San straightened his chest and made a righteous look.
"I don't give you weapons such as bows and arrows today, not because I don't keep my promise.
It's just because I need to consider the safety of other villagers."
The more he said, the more Tang San felt that his idea was right.
So he walked to the corner, took a hoe and handed it over.
"Cao Yu, you don't have the talent, so don't go the way of a soul master.
In fact, this thing is more suitable for you."
Looking at Tang San who completed his self-brainwashing within a minute, Cao Yu's mouth twitched.
'Really Nima, this soul beast has CPUed itself? '
Old Jack on the side seemed to be somewhat convinced by Tang San after hearing what Tang San said.
Seeing that Cao Yu had not moved, Tang San handed the hoe forward again.
"Take it, this is for your own good."
Looking at Tang San's outstretched hand, Cao Yu rolled his eyes.
'Can't draw a bow?
I have been thinking about the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone and the Immortal Grass for a long time.
With those things, I don't need to worry about the situation of leaving hidden injuries on my body.
I can train my body day and night, and use the way of overdrawing future life to exchange for strength.
In addition, I have awakened soul power.
With the blessing of soul power, can I still not draw a bow? ’
Although he felt a little disdainful, Cao Yu did not show it.
After all, Tang Hao was still by his side. He could act cool, but he couldn’t act too much.
If he wanted to get something, he had to change his method.
After thinking for a moment, Cao Yu spoke again.
“We just agreed a few minutes ago. Have you forgotten what you said so quickly?
I can’t draw the bow. Can’t I sell it to someone else?
A good set of bows and arrows, I can sell it for 1 gold soul coin anyway.
If I meet a suitable buyer, such as the uncles in the village who often go out hunting, it won’t be difficult for me to sell it for three or five gold soul coins.
A hoe is only a few dollars.”
As he said that, Cao Yu put on a pitiful look and approached Old Jack.
He grabbed Old Jack’s sleeve and looked at him silently without saying a word.
Seeing Cao Yu’s expression, Old Jack couldn’t sit still. He turned his head and looked at Tang Hao and said.
"Tang Hao, you set an example for Xiao San.
You should use your actions to tell Xiao San that people should learn to keep their promises..."
In the eyes of Old Jack, Tang San has always been a good boy and would never do such a thing of breaking his promise.
'It must be Tang Hao who has led Xiao San astray. Xiao San must go to school as soon as possible.
Keep him away from Tang Hao, this bad guy, and don't let Tang Hao teach Xiao San bad things.
Old Jack stared at Tang Hao with his eyes, asking him to give an explanation.
Seeing that his performance worked, Cao Yu looked at Tang Hao on the side, blinked and shouted.
"Uncle——"
Seeing the expressions of Cao Yu and Old Jack, Tang Hao's mouth twitched.
But he didn't say anything more.
Turning back to the house, he took out a set of finished bows and arrows, and a newly made iron axe.
He handed the things over with a cold face.
"Take the things, Xiao San won't take advantage of you."
Seeing Tang Hao's actions, Cao Yu immediately retracted his previous expression of wanting to cry, and took the things with a smile.
"Thank you, uncle.
I've given the place to Xiao San. It's okay for me to go to the academy next year."
Said Cao Yu, turning his head to look at Tang San, smiling.
"Xiao San, thank you too.
If I shoot a rabbit, I'll treat you to its head."
"..."
Cao Yu's expression was flawless, but Tang San felt something was wrong.
The Tang Sect belongs to the Sichuan region, and Tang San grew up eating spicy rabbit heads.
Thinking of the delicious rabbit heads, Tang San's mouth began to secrete saliva instinctively.
But for some reason, Tang San suddenly felt a little heartache.
'Why does my heart suddenly hurt so much...
I seem to be about to lose something...'
Seeing that Tang San didn't speak, he stepped forward and patted Tang San's shoulder.
"Xiao San, you are such a good person, I will definitely thank you in the future."
After achieving his goal, Cao Yu couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth.
Seeing that Tang San didn't speak, Cao Yu didn't waste any more time.
After simply carrying the things on his back, Cao Yu turned around and said hello to Old Jack and walked out of the courtyard.
Looking at Cao Yu's back, everyone in the courtyard had different expressions.
When Tang San was in a daze, Old Jack came up and patted him on the shoulder and said.
"Xiao San, Xiao Yu is a good boy. He always considers you in everything.
Xiaoyu's talent is not good. When Xiaoyu goes to school next year, you have to take good care of him and don't let other children bully him..."
Tang Hao glanced at the two of them and didn't bother to say anything else. He picked up the wine bottle, turned around and walked back into the dim room.
Tang San turned to look at Old Jack, he really wanted to agree to Old Jack's request.
But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything...
…
Cao Yu returned home ten minutes later.
Without wasting time, Cao Yu quickly started packing his things.
‘It feels moisturized.
I was really good at archery in my previous life, but I have never touched a bow in this life.
If you want to get your feel back, it still takes a certain amount of time to practice.
There was no suitable opportunity to train in the village. It would be bad if Tang San and his son noticed it, so it would be better to leave as soon as possible.
Besides, who knows where that rabbit got his place as a work-study student in that village.
Time is also a bit tight. There are many villages near Notting City, and I have to find them one by one.
If I can't find anyone in the end, I'll have to try to stay...'
After a while, Cao Yu found what he had prepared.
A few saved Gintama coins, a piece of flint, a little salt and dry food, some homemade insect repellent powder...
Cao Yu doesn't have much money, and there are still three months until the Junior Soul Master Academy starts.
Accommodation, food, etc. are totally not enough.
Most of the food can only be obtained by hunting.
In this regard, Cao Yu, who has experience in wild survival, is not panicked.
After quickly packing these things, Cao Yu walked towards the outside of the village without looking back...
