A poor hero

"Whoosh" sound.

A crossbow arrow pierced the gangster's forehead.

The gangster died instantly.

The knife in his hand fell down weakly, missed Chen Chen's clothes, and hit the ground heavily.

Chen Chen broke into a cold sweat and suddenly his buttocks hit the ground.

If it were any later, he would have to explain it here.

Shen Qian ran over, touched Chen Chen's whole body, and cried, "Chen Chen, are you okay?"

It turned out that Shen Qian couldn't worry more about Chen Chen, so she also ran over to help.

But she ran slowly and never caught up.

She saw this scene as soon as she arrived, and she followed Chen Chen's teachings.

She raised her crossbow, shot three points and one line at the gangster, and saved Chen Chen with one arrow.

At this time, her feet were still shaking from the murder just now.

When she learned that Chen Chen was fine, she broke down and cried.

"Shen Qian, it's okay. Those people deserve to die. In this environment, either he dies or we die."

Chen Chen hugged Shen Qian tightly and comforted her.

Although he said this, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

When I committed a murder before, the situation was urgent and I didn’t think too much about it.

Now that I have time to think about it, I realize that in this reckless era, you still need to have some skills.

He felt that his practice was still too slow, and he was still a little weak when fighting armed gangsters with his bare hands.

When Zhao Qi saw that Chen Chen was fine, he immediately collapsed to the ground and rested with relief.

After a while, Zhao Qicai came to Chen Chen and Shen Qian out of breath.

"Chen Chen, these gangsters are a little strange. They probably aren't making fortunes, but I don't know what they are trying to do."

Zhao Qi thought for a while and then spoke.

Chen Chen didn't know what these people wanted to do.

He only knew from what these people said that the gangster's target was him.

He really didn't dare think about what would happen if he didn't make the first move.

But he didn't want Shen Qian and Zhao Qi to worry, so he hid the fact that the gangster knew him.

So he smiled and said: "The devil knows what they are doing. Anyway, they are all dead, so we don't need to worry about them so much anymore."

Shen Qian also slowly recovered and nodded in agreement with Chen Chen's statement.

Chen Chen was afraid that these gangsters had accomplices, so he continued: "By the way, Uncle Qi, you should not go out in the car these days. I don't know if they have any accomplices. Wait until this matter is over before you go out."

Although Zhao Qi was brave, he became a little scared when he thought about the gangsters he had just chased.

He thought about it again and felt that he hadn't been to his daughter's house for a long time, so he nodded in agreement.

He had a dark face and said bitterly: "Chen Chen, I happen to be going to my daughter's place to visit, so I'll treat this as a vacation."

Chen Chen felt relieved when he learned that Zhao Qi would be avoided for a while.

Don't let these gangsters take it out on Zhao Qi if they don't find him by then.

Chen Chen will feel guilty when the time comes.

After the three of them rested for a while, Shen Qian slowly regained her composure and finally accepted the murder.

Zhao Qisheng was afraid that the gangsters might have back-ups, so they hurried back to Chenjiazhuang.

Chen Chen and Shen Qian were picked on by Du Xiaowan on the street and they forgot to buy Mavericks toys.

When he got home, the calf's mouth suddenly became flat when he saw that his toy was not there.

Chen Chen thought for a moment, smiled and said to Xiao Niu: "Okay, Xiao Niu, do you want to eat some candies? I'll make some candies for you to try."

Candy has always been a favorite food of children, whether in ancient times or modern times.

At this time in the Ming Dynasty, all the common people could buy now were caramels, but Mavericks had never even eaten caramels, let alone candies.

The only thing he had tasted was the sugar water from before, but that had been a long time ago.

Now that the calf heard that there was candy to eat, he became happy again.

He asked curiously: "Brother Dachen, what is candy? Is it made of white sugar paste on the fruit?"

Chen Chen became happy when he heard this.

At this time, there was no such thing as candy, but what Maverick was talking about was candied haws.

When he is free later, he plans to go up the mountain to pick some hawthorns and make some candied haws to try.

This is another snack that children love to eat!

So Chen Chen told Mavericks and Shen Qian what candy was.

Candies are not difficult to make.

Just fully dissolve the white sugar or sucrose first;

Then boil it into syrup to remove excess water and increase the concentration and viscosity of the sugar solution;

After the sugarpaste comes out of the pot, cool it, add juice or mint and other flavorings, and then set it to shape.

Mint is available near the house, so you don’t have to look for it anywhere.

When Shen Qian heard that candies were so delicious, she was no longer stingy.

Because she already had the money to hold the wedding, she generously asked Chen Chen to use cane sugar to make more candies.

Chen Chen was not polite and took the cane sugar directly, planning to make several kilograms of candies.

An hour later, with the help of Shen Qian and Xiao Niu, Chen Chen made the candy.

Although it is not as delicious as those in later generations, it is still considered the most delicious candy in the Ming Dynasty.

The calf happily sat on the chair and ate the candy.

After Shen Qian tried the delicious candy, she jumped up and took the candy and went to find her playmates Sister-in-law Wu Hong and Chen Xue.

Chen Chen finally felt relieved when he saw that Shen Qian was an innocent, lively and carefree little guy who was not affected by what happened on the road at all.

Before taking action, he thought human life was expensive.

Unexpectedly, in this era, human lives were as ordinary as grass and grass. He had nothing to feel guilty about killing those individuals.

"Xiao Niu, is this candy delicious? Do you want more?"

Chen Chen saw Mavericks happily licking candy, walked towards Mavericks, and asked.

Maverick swallowed his saliva and replied with a smile: "Okay, Brother Dachen, then I want a lot of candies."

Chen Chen touched the calf's head and became happy.

He smiled and said to Mavericks: "It's better not to eat so much. If a child eats too many candies, his teeth will get bugs. Tomorrow, Brother Dachen will make candied haws for you to eat."

When Maverick heard that there would be a new snack to eat tomorrow, he nodded happily.

Although Mavericks can't eat too many candies, Chen Chen will propose marriage in a few days.

He wants to prepare more candies so that he can do things easily when the time comes.

So Chen Chen went into the kitchen and started working again.

Not long after, he made a few more kilograms of peppermint candies before he stopped.

At this time, Shen Qian was tired and walked back home. When she saw so many candies, she was so happy.

She smiled and asked Chen Chen: "Mr. sir, can we leave some candies and give them to my brother to try when we return to my house?"

Chen Chen smiled and touched Shen Qian's head, "These are for when I go to your house to propose marriage. Otherwise, why do you think I did so many things?"

When Shen Qian heard this, she smiled even more happily.
