Chapter 185 Don't Make Trouble
Gu Ping'an on the side twitched his lips and could not help but persuade him: "Master, forget it. My second sister has always been very opinionated. No one can persuade her to stick to her decision. Apart from anything else, just the joy on her face, even if my father was here, it would be useless!"
After spending so many days together, Third Uncle also understood Gu Tang's temper and knew that he probably couldn't be persuaded.
"Well, we can only let her go. I just don't know which family they are inviting? Let's get up at 11:00 am tomorrow and go to the kitchen to make some pancakes and boil some eggs. Then we can pack some for them so that they can help take care of your second sister."
"Okay!" Gu Ping'an responded.
Gu Tang returned to the West Chamber and said he wanted to pack up, but there was actually nothing to pack. He put all the backflow incense he had made earlier into the system backpack, and there was nothing else.
But she couldn't go out empty-handed. If the trip went well, maybe she could really sell the backflow incense.
Since she wanted to sell incense, she couldn't go empty-handed, so she had to pack it in a small bag to hide it. When her father asked her about it, she could say that she put the incense in the bag and brought it secretly to Bei'an City.
He rummaged around the house, picked up some inconspicuous and light things, and quickly packed out a small bag.
Gu Tang tried it on his back and found it was very light, almost weightless.
After finishing all this, she continued to think of ways to make a crossbow while there was still time. Even if it was just a model with a roughly similar appearance, maybe the system could really recognize it.
Unfortunately, she tossed around in the house for an hour, her fingers were rubbed red, and she only managed to make something that looked like a cross!
This is really... nothing!
It seems that there is little hope of making a crossbow by myself.
We are going to Bei'an City tomorrow, so we can't rely on this crossbow. I don't know if the father and son over there will cause any trouble.
Although he already has wearable anti-wolf spray and stun batons, Gu Tang still hopes to sign out some more useful self-defense weapons today.
After thinking about it, she simply took out the anti-wolf spray and stun baton and held them in her arms.
Since you can't get a crossbow, just get some anti-wolf spray and stun batons. As long as they are in large quantities, they will be invincible just as they were in ancient times!
Calling up the system panel, Gu Tang quickly pressed the sign-in button.
Soon, accompanied by the crisp electronic sound of the system, today's harvest is as follows:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing today's sign-in! Get the self-defense weapon gift pack (reduced version)! ]
[Congratulations to the host for completing seven consecutive days of sign-in and winning a lucky draw! ]
Gu Tang didn't plan to use the lottery. For someone like her whose luck fluctuated so much, it would be safer to draw ten times in a row.
I opened the backpack and looked at the big gift package in the grid. The three words "Reduced Version" on it were particularly eye-catching.
How come there is a cut version? Opening a gift pack requires luck, and here comes another cut version!
With a long sigh, the item had already been signed out and there was no way to change it. Gu Tang could only click and open the gift package reluctantly.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for opening the self-defense weapon gift pack (reduced version)! Get anti-wolf spray*3, electric baton*3, stun gun*3, brass knuckles*3! ]
What the hell!
Gu Tang was dumbfounded. How could the abridged version be so powerful? Even the stun gun was used!
If this is the normal version or the enhanced version, can it open hot weapons? !
She jumped out of bed, locked the door, took out all the self-defense weapons she had opened and placed them on the table.
The anti-wolf spray and stun gun are wearable like the previous ones, but the stun gun is not. You need to take out the real object and aim it at the target to fire.
However, there is one difference. This thing has no wires, but darts similar to bullets. There are only twenty charged darts in each gun, and they are gone after they are shot.
Three stun guns, together they have sixty darts. If used, they won't hurt many people unless she can hit the target with every dart!
Gu Tang smacked his lips twice. Although it had some shortcomings, it was impeccable at this moment and could be considered a relatively strong self-defense weapon.
After putting these three items away, only the last item remained on the table: two silver brass knuckles.
Originally, Gu Tang didn't have much expectation for this thing, but who would have thought that it turned out to be a hidden dark horse!
This thing is like the anti-wolf spray and can be worn directly on the body. When she punches someone, the invisible brass knuckles can exert their power, making the punch more powerful and doubling the damage caused by the brass knuckles!
Gu Tang put it on his hand with satisfaction and waved it in the air a few times. The sound of it breaking through the air could be faintly heard.
Not bad, not bad, this one suits her taste very well. She can try wearing it when she beats someone up in the future.
Putting the brass knuckles back into the backpack, Gu Tang tapped on the grid a few times and put on the anti-wolf spray, stun baton, and brass knuckles.
I hope everything goes smoothly tomorrow, and that the father and son over there behave themselves and don't cause any trouble.
…
The next day, to the sound of roosters crowing in the backyard, my third uncle slowly woke up and opened his eyes. Everything in front of him was dark and it was still dark outside.
He lit the oil lamp in the house, put on his clothes, carried the oil lamp to the outer room, glanced at the clepsydra in the corner, it was the end of the Yin hour.
He returned to the house, put on his clothes, took out a lantern and lit it, then carried the lantern to the west wing to call Gu Ping'an.
Gu Ping'an always got up early, and he was almost awake at this time. His third uncle just called him softly, and he woke up quickly and responded to the outside.
After getting the response, Third Uncle did not stay any longer, but went to the east wing with the lantern in hand.
There was no bolt on the door of Gu Laian's room in the east wing, so it opened with a gentle push.
When I entered the house, it was still quite warm, but there was not much firewood in the stove, so my third uncle added some more.
He raised the lantern high and came to Gu Laian's bed to shine it carefully. Seeing that he looked normal but was snoring, Third Uncle felt relieved. He put his big hand on his forehead. His palm was warm. It seemed that he had not had a fever in the middle of the night.
Gu Laian was sleeping like a pig. Someone came into the room and touched his head, but he didn't react at all. He continued to snore and slept soundly.
Third Uncle knew that he had been ill and needed to rest, so he didn't wake him up. He tiptoed out of the house and closed the door to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.
In the west wing, Gu Ping'an had already put on his clothes and walked out of the house, and was walking towards this side holding an oil lamp.
When the man arrived, the third uncle handed him the lantern and asked him to lead the way to the kitchen.
The kitchen in my third uncle's house was different from that in Gu's house. They didn't lock all the food in the room. Instead, they kept rice, flour, oil, salt, meat and vegetables in it. It was very complete.
Everything was placed in jars and covered with thick wooden boards to prevent mice, wild cats and the like from coming in and stealing the food.
The grandparents first boiled some hot water to wash up, then the third uncle kneaded the dough to make pancakes, while Gu Ping'an started busying himself with cooking porridge and boiling eggs.
After Gu Ping'an had cooked the porridge and eggs, and his third uncle had rolled out the pancakes, he told Gu Ping'an to light the stove, heat the pan, pour oil, and start making pancakes.
