Lin Luo narrowed her eyes slightly. In her perception, the "person" was very burly, but his movements were very agile. If it weren't for her mental power, she probably wouldn't have been able to detect him at all.
The unidentified person soon stopped moving and lay quietly on the roof above Lin Luo's head, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
After waiting patiently for half an hour, Lin Luo decided not to wait any longer and took the initiative to attack. With her current skills, she could easily deal with more than a dozen big men.
The mental net instantly turned into a rope, directly tying up the man. At the same time, Lin Luo flipped over and opened the window and jumped onto the roof.
However, her movements still made a slight noise, and the unidentified person tried to escape when he heard the noise, but Lin Luo's mental power bound him tightly.
At this time, Lin Luo finally saw part of the appearance of this unidentified person. Not to mention the familiar coat on his body, his face was covered with hair and dirt, making it impossible to see his face clearly. Only his dark eyes, which were still clear in the dark night, could show that this person should not be very old.
There was still dirt and bamboo leaves on his body, and no one knew where he came from.
When Lin Luo saw the man, he naturally saw Lin Luo as well. He could clearly feel him getting even more panicked and trying to escape, but the mental rope was so strong that he couldn't...
Bang!
It was the sound of the rope of mental power being forcibly broken free.
Lin Luo: ...
This person's strength... ?
Even if it's only level three, trying to break free from the rope is probably as difficult as moving a thousand-pound stone.
In the blink of an eye, the unknown person disappeared from the roof.
A gust of mountain wind blew, making Lin Luo's loose hair even more messy.
After Lin Luo stood there in silence for three minutes to make sure that the man would not come again, he returned to his room and lay back on the bed, but this time he did not close his eyes.
——He is very strong and extremely fast, and he doesn’t look like an ordinary “savage” at all.
Why would someone like that be lying on the roof of my grandfather's house? Has he been lying there before, or did he only appear after she arrived?
Lin Luo's thinking was fruitless, but she did not gain nothing just now. She left a mental mark on the man, and she would feel it as long as she was within a hundred meters of him.
Lin Luo had a hunch that this unknown person was not just hiding in a random house, he knew her.
The next day, the construction team arrived. The place was so small, and Lin Luo wanted to tear it down and rebuild it, so they didn't spend much time together.
The biggest trouble is that Grandpa Luo’s house is at the innermost part of Zhoujiawu. The road is rugged and it is easy for cars to bump into things when driving in, not to mention other large vehicles.
But these things can be easily solved with money. Lin Luo has limited funds but she does not skimp on them. Her principle is that any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.
"Luo girl, what are you doing?"
Grandma Yao's home was closest to this house. She came over immediately when she heard the noises outside. She was afraid that something might have happened to Lin Luo.
"you……"
Then he saw the men with obvious stains on their clothes, and his expressions immediately became alert!
"Grandma, I want to build a new house, and I hired them." Lin Luo walked forward with a smile.
"Grandma, I am Zhao Alang's son. You have seen me. Many houses in this village were built by me." The leading boss also spoke with a smile. Indeed, many of the houses in this area were built by them, and they knew many people in and outside the village.
Although Grandma Yao is old, her mind is still clear and she remembered it as soon as she heard it.
Zhoujiawu Village is small and located in a remote area. Young people all go out to work or settle down there. But perhaps because of their attachment to their hometown, many people are willing to spend money to rebuild their houses in their hometown.
Some said they wanted to retire here in the future, some did it for their parents, and some simply wanted to show off their money.
"Building a house..." Grandma Yao seemed to be hesitant to speak. She fell from the roof that year. If it weren't for Grandpa Luo, the grass on her grave would be three meters high now, not just a limp leg.
Lin's mother was raised by Grandma Yao, and she treated Lin Luo as her own granddaughter.
But Grandma Yao also knew that she had a bad temper. If a widow was not a little fierce, she would be bullied in the countryside.
She endured it and didn't say anything to Lin Luoduo in front of outsiders.
——A little girl suddenly wants to build a house. What if she gets cheated of such a big thing?
This kind of contractor is the most cunning. He cuts corners and plays tricks. Grandma Yao is really worried. She must talk to Luo Yatou in detail later.
Even Grandma Yao thought that she usually just farmed, so if they really wanted to build something, she would definitely have to help Luo Yatou check everything and keep a close eye on this group of people.
On this side, Lin Luo of course wanted to start work as soon as possible, so the first thing he had to do was clear out the things in the house.
On the west side of the yard there is a small house of about four or five square meters, which is usually used to store miscellaneous items. Some inexpensive but meaningful things can be placed here.
Some small items can be left in the car, but most of them will definitely have to be thrown away.
Lin Luo had no place to live while the house was being built. She planned to rent a house in the city closest to the town for three months - it would take a month and a half to build the house, and it would probably take the same amount of time to renovate it.
As for his original home, Lin Luo has already thought of a way to deal with it. Anyway, it will definitely not be given away cheaply to those guys.
That night, Lin Luo did not wait for the unknown person. She thought that this guy would not appear for a while after being caught by her.
But I didn’t expect to see such a scene on the second day after the house was officially demolished.
The house had already been demolished, and all the construction waste was piled in the yard. Except for some left to be filled, I planned to clear it out today, but now...
"W-What's going on?"
Several construction workers were dumbfounded. Anyone would be surprised to see half of the house in front of them being rebuilt as if it were a child playing with building blocks.
You know, some of these huge pieces of waste weigh hundreds of kilograms.
No one can play such a prank. Is there something playing tricks on me?
People in this line of work always believe in something, and it's hard not to think too much about such irrational things.
Lin Luo, who followed the construction team into the village in the morning, frowned slightly. She didn't think about the direction of the supernatural, but immediately identified the "suspect".
Lin Luo: "I have something to do today, so I'll put this on hold for a day. You guys go back first. If anyone asks, just tell me this. Understand?"
He simply increased the mental suggestion, and the workers went back obediently with a dazed look on their faces.
Grandma Yao, who had just returned from the fields, was fooled away by Lin Luo in the same way. This enthusiastic neighbor was always worried that Lin Luo would be bullied, so she gave him a lot of instructions in the past two days.
Lin Luo is always more tolerant towards kindness.
After dealing with the others, Lin Luo changed into rubber shoes and carried a large backpack on his back. It looked full and no one knew what was inside.
At the same time, holding a sickle, he began to walk up the mountain along the path.
The mountain that Zhoujiawu relies on is called Xiaowu Mountain. It is not high, only more than 300 meters, but even the most experienced old people will not easily go deep into the mountain.
In fact, this mountain is not a single one, but a continuous mountain range, and it is also a branch of the Tianshu Mountains, the largest mountain in the Flower Kingdom.
The situation in the mountains has been slightly better in recent years. In the past, wild boars and wolves often came to destroy crops and kill livestock.
After walking a short distance, the man-made stone road disappeared and the surrounding trees became more and more lush.
It was already bright at around eight in the morning, but it was getting darker and darker on the mountain. In particular, you could occasionally see a few deserted graves, and the sound of wind blowing through the leaves was really terrifying.
Lin Luo was not afraid at all. She even had the leisure to look around to see if there were any edible mushrooms or wild vegetables. When she was a child, her grandmother took her to see a lot of them.
After walking a little further, Lin Luo began to sense the presence of some small creatures, but they were very weak and would run away very fast when they heard any movement. They were probably hares or something.
Kaz-kaz-kaz-
After walking on the rotten branches for nearly an hour, Lin Luo's brows finally relaxed a little, as if he had discovered something.
But she did not make any other unnecessary movements, but continued to go deeper into the mountains, to a depth that ordinary people would not come to.
The road became increasingly difficult to walk on, or it could be said that there was no road at all. It all depended on Lin Luo's sickle and mental power to clear the way.
About half an hour later, Lin Luo suddenly stopped. A snake was coiled on a branch not far above her head.
It almost blends into the branch, and you can tell it's poisonous just by looking at the shape of its head. The venomous snake is not in a good mood about Lin Luo, the outsider who disturbed it.
Seeing Lin Luo getting closer and closer to him, the poisonous snake was ready to attack, but Lin Luo seemed not to notice the danger and continued to move towards the poisonous snake.
Five meters, three meters, one meter...
Swish——
A long figure as fast as lightning rushed towards Lin Luo, and it seemed that it would leave several more tooth marks on her body in the next second.
However, at this moment, even if most people discovered it, they would not have time to react, just like Lin Luo at this moment, standing there motionless, as if he was scared silly.
Phew!
Just when Lin Luo smelled the stench of the poisonous snake, a stone came from nowhere and hit him.
The force was so great that it nailed the venomous snake to the tree trunk nearby, and no matter how it struggled and twisted, it was useless.
The corners of Lin Luo's mouth twitched, and a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Is that you?"
The clear female voice echoed in the woods, startling a few birds, but there was no other response.
Lin Luo did not give up, she knew that person was still there.
"My grandfather is Luo Xingbai. Do you know him?"
The author has something to say: The picture in my mind: a man stayed up late at night, working hard to build a house, but in the end he couldn't build it well...QAQ
