"etc."

Just as Li Yi and the others were about to leave, Li Erniu called them back.

His expression was solemn, and after a moment of contemplation, he seemed to have finally made up his mind.

"Xiao Yi, wait for me a moment."

After saying that, Li Erniu dragged a long object wrapped in thick cloth out from under the bed.

He blew off the dust, and when he opened it, he found a shiny black bow.

"Brother Erniu, this bow?"

Li Yi's heart skipped a beat. He recognized the bow; it was a black lacquered bow that only soldiers could be issued. Although the situation was chaotic and the control was not so strict, it was still very difficult for ordinary people to buy such a bow and arrow.

Li Yi originally planned to go to the county town to try his luck and see if he could buy one like that.

If all else fails, buy a crossbow; this is the hunter's first choice.

"Xiao Yi, this bow was left to me by my elder brother. He wanted me to achieve great things, but now my body is..."

A hint of reluctance flashed in Li Erniu's eyes, but he still handed it to Li Yi in the end, saying, "Take it. It can only play its greatest role if it's in your hands."

Li Yi didn't reach out. The bow was valuable, but the sentiment behind it was even more important.

"Brother Erniu, this is too precious, I can't accept it, and this was left to you by Brother Dagou."

"Stop talking nonsense, just take it."

Li Erniu stepped forward, grabbed Li Yi's hand, and pressed the bow firmly against it, saying, "This is my gift. You must keep it. I have only one request: hurry up and have a son. I absolutely cannot let those people eat our children away!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Fang lowered her head shyly.

After a moment of hesitation, Li Yi looked into Er Niu's unusually determined eyes and nodded solemnly.

The wrinkles on Li Erniu's face finally smoothed out.

Li Yi picked up the bow and examined it closely.

Just by feeling the texture in your hand, you can tell it's a good product.

Now that I possess the strength of three stones, an ordinary bow is no match for me, while this bowstring is taut and unmoving. The bow arm bends slowly in my hand, without any creaking noise, only a dull, pent-up sense of power.

With this bow, he will be able to unleash his full potential.

After talking with Li Erniu for a while, the two were kicked out by Li Erniu.

In his words, rather than chatting with a useless person like him, he'd rather go home and make babies.

Having a child soon to carry on the family line is the right thing to do.

On the way back, Liu Fang kept her head down, her face flushed.

They were almost home when she finally asked, "Yi, Brother Yi, are we still going to the county town?"

Li Yi nodded and said, "Let's go home first. After lunch, I'll go to the county town to buy some arrows."

"it is good."

Back home, Li Yue had already started smoking pork.

Seeing this, Li Yi stepped forward and said, "Sister, let me help you."

Li Yue immediately revealed a sweet smile, while Li Xin, who was still recovering, could only watch from the side.

The three siblings all had happy smiles on their faces, and this atmosphere was contagious to Liu Fang as well.

She preferred Li Yi's house to the oppressive atmosphere at Li Erniu's house.

After lunch, Li Yi took out some copper coins and gave them to Li Yue.

"Yueyue, take Xiaoxin to the next village and buy some salt."

The lack of salt at home was indeed unpleasant for Li Yi, but most importantly, his younger siblings were not around, which made it easier for him to get things done.

Without hesitation, Li Yue agreed and left home with Li Xin.

After the two left, only Li Yi and Liu Fang remained at home.

Liu Fang sat on the edge of the bed, clutching the hem of her clothes, and secretly glanced at him.

Seeing Li Yi wiping the new bow, his hands stroking the patterns on the bow's limbs, his expression focused and serene, she felt her ears burning even more under the bright sun.

She bit her lip, then suddenly asked softly, "Brother Yi, your younger siblings have all gone out. Why don't you... take a break?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, he hurriedly lowered his head, his fingers gripping his clothes tightly.

Li Yi put down his bow and looked at the shy woman in front of him. Her slightly flushed face and the faintly visible skin exuded endless charm.

Li Erniu's words of advice echoed in my ears.

"Xiaofang, you are so beautiful."

"Brother Yi..." Before she could finish speaking, her red lips were sealed with a kiss.

The room is filled with the warmth of spring!

......

Happy times don't last forever.

Almost an hour has passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Yi leaned against the headboard, one arm around Liu Fang, looking somewhat helpless.

Still not quite there. With such a significant physical enhancement, it should have taken at least several hours. It seems the environment is limiting my performance; I'll need a bigger house next time.

At this moment, Liu Fang, who was lying in Li Yi's arms, suddenly asked a question.

"Brother Yi, was that person sent by Wang Dagui last night?"

"That's right, are you scared?"

Li Yi patted Liu Fang's head; some things just need to be discussed openly.

Liu Fang nodded, then shook her head.

"With you here, I'm not afraid of anything."

A smile flashed across Li Yi's face, and his eyes became even more determined.

Although he hadn't been in the world for long, there were already things in this world that he wanted to protect.

After he pulled his hand out, he got up and put on his clothes.

"You rest at home for a while, I'm going to the county town."

"Okay, then be careful."

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Li Yi then went out. It wasn't convenient to bring a bow and arrows into the city, so he only brought the small knife he used for skinning animals.

We rushed along the road, and it took us almost half an hour to finally arrive in the city.

Li Yi went straight to the most famous blacksmith shop in the city, where all kinds of weapons and farm tools were displayed, and the clanging sound of hammering could be heard from the back of the shop.

He was greeted by the blacksmith shop owner, a lean and wiry old man.

Upon hearing footsteps, he slightly raised his eyelids and saw someone coming in, so he quickly stood up to greet them.

"Sir, what would you like to buy?"

Li Yi saw a dazzling array of bows on the walls. The most eye-catching were the several horn bows hanging high in the middle. Their surfaces had a warm, golden luster, and they were indeed fine bows, but it was clear at a glance that he couldn't afford them.

His gaze swept across the area without lingering, finally settling on a row of arrows in the corner.

The bow that Li Erniu gave him was of good quality, so naturally it needed to be paired with good arrows.

"Shopkeeper, how much are these arrows?"

A glint of light flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "Sir, you have a good eye. These are arrows from the border army. The arrowheads are made of fine iron, and the fletching is made of wild goose feathers. They fly very steadily and have considerable power. Even a thick-skinned bear can't withstand them."

Having said that, he drew an arrow and handed it to Li Yi.

After carefully examining it, Li Yi nodded and said, "This arrow is indeed good."

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I usually sell them for 100 coins each. A whole pot contains 12 pieces, so I'll give you a discount to 1 tael of silver."

Li Yi thought about it for a moment. A good bow and good arrows are expensive, but they are worth the price.

After upgrading his archery skills, the new special effect is armor penetration. With these arrows, Li Yi believes that he can easily subdue that wild boar if he encounters it again.

Li Yi did not haggle, and then continued to select some ordinary arrows to deal with unforeseen circumstances.

As the shopkeeper was packing Li Yi's order, Li Yi casually asked, "Shopkeeper, do you know Wang Dagui?"

The shopkeeper's face immediately showed disgust when Wang Dagui was mentioned.

"How could I not know? That guy is a notorious scoundrel in our county. He uses his connections to bully others every day. Sigh, I don't know how many innocent families have been ruined because of him..."

The shopkeeper said a lot, but Li Yi gleaned the most important point: Wang Dagui liked to drink tea, and he went to the tea shop on the next street every day.

After listening to the shopkeeper's long-winded explanation, Li Yi finally left the blacksmith shop.

Instead of rushing home, he went to the grain shop next door and bought some grain.

The bow was a gift from Li Erniu, and after buying arrows, he still had a considerable amount of money left.

We need to prepare more food, otherwise what will our younger siblings eat after he leaves?
