Chapter 67 Finding a Sister-in-law for You
Without even turning his head, Tan Tai Lie pulled his hand back from his grasp and said in a cold tone, "Go out for a walk."
Tang Xiaoyun didn't notice that Tan Tai Lie was deliberately distancing himself, and hurriedly said, "You can't go out."
"Why?" Tan Tai Lie finally turned around to look at him.
“Because… because…”
Tang Xiaoyun stuttered for a long time and didn't know how to tell him.
"If you go out like this, you'll definitely be recognized. Just stay inside."
Hearing this, Tan Tai Lie raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why, you can't say it?"
Tang Xiaoyun couldn't tell the truth, so anxiously he made up a story: "That's because you are so handsome. If you go out with a face like that, you will definitely be caught by those hungry women. I'm doing this for your own good."
Hearing this, a rare smile appeared on Tan Tai Lie's face. He chuckled and said, "Oh? Then I have to go out and look around. What if a young lady takes a fancy to me? Then you will have another sister-in-law, right, my brother?"
Tang Xiaoyun stared at Tan Tai Lie's evil and weird face, biting his cheek tightly, and complaining in his heart.
[Damn it! Even with amnesia, this guy is still so sinister. You already have me, yet you still want to marry another woman? Dream on.]
"I don't want any sister-in-law, and you can't go out. If you don't listen, I'll tie you up with a rope and take you back."
The smile on Tan Tai Lie's face deepened. Although he didn't remember the relationship between him and the person in front of him, it was still quite interesting to tease him occasionally.
Seeing that he was getting angry, Tan Tai Lie smiled and said, "Well, since you don't want your sister-in-law, as your elder brother, I can only listen to my younger brother."
As he said that, he turned and walked into the house, and Tang Xiaoyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tan Tai Lie returned to his room and locked himself in the room for the entire day without coming out. Tang Xiaoyun thought that it was rare for him to be so obedient.
Until the next morning, when Tang Xiaoyun went out, Tan Tai Lie did not go out again.
"That's fine. I'll be back soon after I finish shopping." After saying that, he put on his cloak and went out.
Shortly after he left, Tan Tai Lie, who had been pretending to be a good boy in the room, sat up from the bed, opened the door and walked out.
At the market, Tang Xiaoyun first went to the blacksmith shop to buy some self-defense weapons.
A long sword and a broken knife were hidden in his boots. Just as he was about to leave, he saw many black balls in the colander next to him.
Tang Xiaoyun asked, "Boss, what is this?"
The boss saw him throwing the black ball, and his heart almost jumped out of his mouth. He hurriedly shouted, "Don't move! Don't move!!"
Tang Xiaoyun paused in his throwing motion, and the black ball he threw into the air was not caught and was about to fall to the ground.
The boss was so scared that his eyes widened and he ran towards the black ball that was about to fall to the ground while shouting.
When the black ball was about to make close contact with the ground, the boss dived, rubbed his chest against the ground, and stretched out his hands like a sliding tackle to catch the black ball steadily.
Only then did the boss dare to breathe a sigh of relief, cold sweat pouring down his forehead as he said with lingering fear: "Luckily I caught it, otherwise my shop would be gone."
Tang Xiaoyun's expression froze. He lowered his head and looked at the boss, stuttering, "Boss, what are you doing..."
Before he could finish, the boss started cursing: "Are you looking for death? You dare to throw a black ball? Aren't you afraid of being blown to death!!!"
Hearing this, Tang Xiaoyun turned his head again and looked at the black ball in the basket. Pointing at it, he asked, "Boss, you said this thing will explode?"
The boss also got up at this time, carefully put the black ball down, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "It's not a big deal, otherwise why would I worry so much?"
If it explodes, both I and my shop will be destroyed.
When he heard it would explode, Tang Xiaoyun laughed: "Isn't this the same principle as the bombs we have there?"
He picked up a black ball and asked the boss, "Can I try its power?"
When the boss heard this, he snatched the black ball away, holding it in his arms like a treasure, and said, "You idiot, you're not going to try it. You can't try something this expensive just because you want to..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the small change Tang Xiaoyun handed over and asked, "Can I try it now?"
Looking at the silver, the boss' eyes sparkled. He quickly snatched the silver away and grinned, saying, "You can try, but we have to go somewhere else."
The next second, the boss took Tang Xiaoyun to an open area outside the town, handed the black ball to Tang Xiaoyun, pointed at the piston on the black ball and said, "Pull this out and throw it away..."
“Snap!”
Throw hard——
"Bang!"
Before the boss could finish his words, Tang Xiaoyun had already pulled out the piston and thrown the black ball out.
A loud bang was heard, accompanied by flying sand and smoke, and a pit appeared on the ground.
"Oh my god, it's quite powerful!"
The boss curled his lips and thought that the man was too impatient. Fortunately, nothing happened.
Tang Xiaoyun walked over to the pit where the explosion had occurred, observed it, and commented, "Although it's not as powerful as the bombs we have, it should be enough to deal with the pursuers."
Then he turned to the boss and asked, "How do you sell this black ball?"
Upon hearing this, the boss quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, I'm just researching this black ball for fun. It's so destructive, I can't be held responsible if someone gets killed."
When Tang Xiaoyun heard that he was worried about this, he quickly promised, "Don't worry about this. I won't use this to blow up people, I'll blow up the fish pond."
"You use such an expensive thing to blow up the fish pond, are you crazy?" The boss looked at him as if he was a fool.
"Just tell me whether you will sell it or not?"
The boss thought for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "I'm a businessman, so why wouldn't I sell it? Since you're sincere about buying it, I'll naturally sell it to you. But let me be frank. If someone gets killed in the explosion, you can't say you bought it from me."
"Yeah, no, no, I'm going to keep it to myself."
Seeing his sincerity, the boss took him back to the shop and pointed at the black ball and said, "I used to sell it for one or two taels of silver each. Today, we are lucky to meet, so I'll give you eight hundred coins each."
"So expensive?" Tang Xiaoyun was completely dumbfounded when he heard it.
"What do you think? This black ball is very complicated to make. If I'm not careful, I might get killed in the process. Is 800 coins not too much to charge you?"
That's true.
He looked at the few remaining silver coins and the long sword in his hand, hesitated for a long time, and finally returned the long sword to the boss and said, "I don't want this long sword anymore. Change it to black balls."
Upon hearing this, the boss pouted and said, "Are you sure? This black ball is disposable. It's gone after use. Are you sure you don't want the sword anymore?"
"Well, no, please change it to a black ball."
[I wouldn't be able to use a long sword anyway. It's not as good as a black ball.]
"Alright, you bought this sword for three taels of silver, so I can only give you four black balls in exchange."
"Four is enough." At worst, we can just use them sparingly.
The boss handed the cloth bag containing the black ball to Tang Xiaoyun, who then left the blacksmith shop.
Now that he had the self-defense items, he also had to buy a cloak for Tan Tai Lie, as his white hair was too eye-catching.
After buying everything, he bought some food for Yu Sheng and his grandson. When he was about to go back, he saw a familiar figure.
With white hair and wearing a black robe, isn't that the big devil?
