——Because I’m tired of this movie.
This is why Yunshu ran to the mountains near Zhoujiawu. It is so real and there is no way to refute it.
Yunshu has been in the mountains for decades, and his footprints can be found in many places in the Tianshu Mountains. The food he has eaten and the scenery he has seen are much more than those of ordinary people.
According to him, he had fought with a wild tiger, and Yunshu won in the end.
"Grandpa was probably looking for herbs at that time. I didn't want to show up." The teenage Yun Shu had occasionally seen people in the mountains besides wild animals. At first, he was a little interested in this creature that looked very similar to him.
But? Later...
Yun Shu completely lost interest in seeing people frightened, screaming, or even wanting to hurt him. He would ignore them when they occasionally met. In the forest, as long as he didn't want to be found, no one could find him.
"And then? How did you meet again?"
As we chatted and walked, it felt like time passed by much faster.
Yunshu recalled, "A snake tried to attack Grandpa, but I thought it would be troublesome if someone died there, so I killed it."
He didn't want to glorify himself or say that he was brave and righteous. Not only did he not believe it, but even Lolo probably wouldn't believe it either.
And at that time? That was the fact. If someone died, many people would go up the mountain, making a mess and disturbing Yunshu's peace.
"But Grandpa is worthy of being Grandpa. He's not afraid of me at all!" Yun Shu remembered that Grandpa Luo was only surprised at first, then thanked her, and then...
It turned into a strange look, which, looking back now, seemed to be a look of surprise and guilt.
——Strange, why are you looking at him like this?
Yun Shu had never thought of this at first. At that time, he couldn't understand such a complicated look. It was not until he thought about it now... that he felt something was wrong.
"So my grandfather and I are connected to you because of a snake!" Lin Luo remembered that time when she went up the mountain to find Yun Shu, this guy was clearly following her but refused to show up.
It was Lin Luo who deliberately manipulated a snake to pretend to be in danger and forced the man out.
"And then you got to know each other?" Not noticing Yun Shu's pause, Lin Luo continued asking.
It had been a long time since she heard about her grandfather from anyone else, let alone Yunshu and her grandfather.
Yun Shu suppressed the doubts in his heart and shared what happened next with Lin Luo with a normal expression.
Luo Wai Gong would come to see Yun Shu every few days, bring him a lot of delicious food, and start teaching him to speak.
After discovering that Yunshu was very smart, he even brought books to teach him pinyin and literacy.
When Lin Luo brought Yun Shu back and discovered that he knew a few characters, it was during this period that he learned them.
——Yunshu is so smart, as smart as my Lolo!
"Yunshu, do you want to live with Grandpa? Grandpa lives on the other side of the mountain. Usually, there are only Grandma and I at home."
——I have a granddaughter who is a few years younger than you. She is beautiful and smart. Yunshu will be her brother from now on.
…
After finishing his studies, Grandpa Luo would chat with Yunshu for a while. He originally had a bad impression of humans and didn't want to go down the mountain, but gradually he seemed to have expectations.
Yun Shu never told Lin Luo that he had actually seen her - Lin Luo during elementary school.
When Luo Wai Gong and Yun Shu met, it was just before the May Day holiday.
Although he rejected Grandpa Luo at that time, he still developed a certain curiosity about human society.
One night, he quietly came down from the mountain and lay on the roof of a public house in Luowai.
Lin Luo is pestering her grandmother to make her fried shrimp chips tomorrow.
"Grandma, good grandma, Luoluo will only eat a little bit, I promise, just a little bit."
"Just don't tell Mom."
"Grandma is the best! Luo Luo loves Grandma the most!"
…
When a teenage girl starts to act coquettishly, no one can resist her, let alone Grandma Luo who already loves Lin Luo.
——Is this Lolo?
Yun Shu thought at that time that it would be nice to have a sister like this.
Unfortunately, before Yunshu could agree to Grandpa Luo, an accident happened.
What happened next was similar to what Lin Luo knew. Grandpa accidentally slipped and fell, and was sent home by Yun Shu. He died shortly afterwards.
No one knew about the promise he made to Yunshu.
Until... Lin Luo planned to settle in Zhoujiawu.
At this time, it had been eight years since Li Luo's grandfather passed away, and five years since Li Luo's grandmother passed away. After the death of both elders, the frequency of Lin's father and mother's visits to Zhoujiawu suddenly decreased.
Not to mention Lin Luo, whose studies are becoming increasingly busy.
"Pfft..." Lin Luo suddenly laughed out loud, "I still remember the first night I lived in Zhoujiawu last year. I woke up in the morning and found that a piece of clothing was missing. I thought it was taken away by wild animals in the mountains."
Yun Shu was a little embarrassed. "Because my original clothes were too torn, but Grandpa Luo told me to wear clothes and never let others see my body, so I..."
Yun Shu, who grew up in the mountains, naturally has no sense of shame. Wild beasts don't wear clothes either. When Lin Luo saw him still wearing clothes for the first time, he was actually a little surprised.
I didn't expect that this was something my grandfather emphasized on purpose. It seems like something he could do.
Lin Luo, who thought she was normal, did not doubt it until much later, when she saw Yun Shu's naked upper body by chance, she suddenly realized it.
It has nothing to do with propriety, righteousness, and shame. It turns out...
“Ouch!”
The one who interrupted the conversation was Xiao Hei. He looked at the bayberries that were emitting a sweet and sour aroma not far away, kicked his limbs, and flew out like an arrow. It seemed that he also knew that bayberries were delicious.
Lin Luo also saw the tall bayberry tree. It was really too big and its roots must be very deep. There was little hope of moving it.
Look at the bayberries on the tree. Because they grow in such a remote place, although no one picks them, there are many wild animals and birds.
The whole tree seemed to be covered with densely packed dark purple bayberries, and the only part that was truly intact was probably the one in the middle of the tree.
Wild beasts can't reach it, and birds can't peck it.
It can’t be said that the trip was in vain.
Yun Shu was the best at climbing trees. Without any preparation or big movements, he had already reached a height of three or four meters in the blink of an eye.
"Lolo, let me pick it, don't move your hands."
There were many bugs on the bayberry trees, and after picking the bayberries, his hands were sticky. Yun Shu didn't want Lin Luo to suffer this kind of pain.
But Lin Luo didn't come here specifically to watch Yun Shu pick bayberries by herself.
Without her making any movement, a branch of bayberry on the tree snapped and did not fall directly to the ground, but fell obediently into another bamboo basket, as if another invisible hand was controlling everything.
This was not the first time that Lin Luo showed his strength in front of Yun Shu, but there were always reasons before, such as the villagers in Zhoujiawu, and to "capture" Yun Shu.
I have never come here just to pick bayberries like I do now.
——Is it because Lolo trusts himself more?
Yun Shu happily labeled Lin Luo's behavior, not seeing any problem with this unconventional force. "Lolo is amazing! How about we compete to see who picks the most?"
"Okay, the loser will be responsible for giving Hei a bath!"
Lin Luo smiled and made the bet.
Didn't Xiao Hei bring Xiao Bai up the mountain? He completely let himself go, running around under the bayberry tree, and even climbed up the tree to mess with the bayberries like Yun Shu.
Its fur and claws are soaked in the juice of bayberry, which really attracts bees and butterflies. After it dries, it becomes a sticky ball, which will definitely be difficult to wash.
An hour later, Yun Shu lost.
How can the ones picked by hand compare to Lin Luo's telekinetic ability? If two people like the same branch, Lin Luo will definitely win.
Yun Shu was willing to accept the loss and just glanced with disdain at Xiao Hei, whose body was covered with grass leaves and whose hair was tangled into clumps.
Xiao Hei shuddered all over, inexplicably feeling the murderous intent.
After walking for more than three hours, Lin Luo and Yun Shu finally arrived home with two bamboo baskets of bayberries.
After picking a plate of darker, sweeter-looking bayberries and soaking them in salt water, Lin Luo went to take a bath. Yun Shu caught Xiao Hei and gave it a full-body "massage" with an expressionless face.
Xiao Hei cried out under the pressure, but unfortunately he could not escape Yun Shu's clutches and could only endure this inhuman torture.
Maybe the cry was too miserable, which attracted Xiaobai's glance. Seeing Xiaohei like this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly in an anthropomorphic way, and his originally sarcastic face instantly turned into a mocking one.
There were a few clumps of hair on Xiao Hei's body that were difficult to clean, so Yun Shu waved his hand and shaved them off.
If it was completely shaved, it might be acceptable, but now at first glance, Xiao Hei looks like he has alopecia areata, which is so ugly.
When Yun Shu finally managed to deal with the situation and loosened his grip a little, Xiao Hei let out a sad and angry wail and immediately jumped out. It was estimated that he didn't want to get close to Yun Shu for some time.
After both of them had finished cleaning up, they couldn't help but look at the two baskets of bayberries under the eaves and began to think.
Although the bayberry tree was damaged a lot, when I really went to pick the bayberries, I found that there were still quite a lot of intact bayberries. After giving some to Grandma Yao, there were at least nearly 100 kilograms of bayberries left.
If only two people eat it, they definitely can't eat much. Eating too much bayberry will make your teeth feel sour.
You don't need that much to make wine, so the two of them were so happy picking them that they completely forgot about what to do afterwards.
Lin Luo quickly opened his mobile phone and searched for things he didn't know while there was still internet.
How to make bayberry juice?
This is fine. She likes bayberry juice, which is sour and sweet and especially suitable for drinking in summer when chilled.
Candied bayberry...
It looks very sweet, but Yunshu should like it.
Although there was a refrigerator, bayberry is a fruit that does not keep long, and the weather was hot. Just as we were getting down the mountain, we could already smell a faint smell of alcohol and heard small insects flying around.
As there are still two hours before dark, Lin Luo and Yun Shu plan to process all the bayberries in one go.
After making bayberry juice and candied bayberries, the rest can be made into dried bayberries!
That night at dinner, Lin Luo enjoyed the bayberry juice he made himself. It was more flavorful than the ones he bought and the taste was more to his liking. It was not so sweet and did not contain any messy additives.
With the added bonus of being iced, Lin Luo didn't even want to eat and just wanted to drink as much bayberry juice as he wanted.
Yun Shu: “…”
Lolo seems to be becoming more and more childish, but there's nothing wrong with that.
Looking at Lin Luo like this, Yun Shu smiled and gave her another piece of pork belly. Who knew who was the biggest contributor to Lin Luo's transformation?
Have you finished picking bayberries? The Dragon Boat Festival is coming in a few days.
The mugwort sent by Grandma Yao was hung on the door of Lin Luo's house, along with two tiger-head sachets made by Grandma herself.
In this area, there is a custom that elders make sachets by hand and give them to children during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is said that they can bless the children's safety. When Luo's grandmother was still alive, Lin Luo would receive them every Dragon Boat Festival.
Although these two in my hand are made of scraps of cloth, the fine stitches and vivid appearance show that a lot of thought was put into them. Especially since Grandma Yao is old and her eyesight is even worse, I wonder how long it took her to make these two sachets.
Lin Luo hung it on the car, and Yun Shu hung it on the head of her bed. Both of them cherished this gift.
Then they brought out the salted duck eggs and rice dumplings that they had made earlier. Yunshu also made a dish of fried small yellow croaker. The two of them enjoyed drinking wine in the yard.
I thought the day would pass uneventfully, but unexpectedly, in the evening, sirens sounded in Zhoujiawu.
The accident happened about one kilometer away from Lin Luo's house. Yes, it was the area designated as a sanatorium.
After the land problem was solved some time ago, the construction team quickly moved into Zhoujiawu, and construction vehicles also drove in. After a series of actions such as surveying and planning, the next step is naturally to lay the foundation.
They didn't rest on the Dragon Boat Festival and kept working.
Because it was originally arable land, laying the foundation was even more difficult. When the construction team dug the soil little by little and reached a depth of about three or four meters, a half-rotted skeleton suddenly appeared.
At that time, the terrified screams of several people instantly resounded throughout Zhoujiawu. Judging from the decomposing appearance of the corpse, it was definitely not the kind left over from decades ago, which meant that it was a murder that happened in recent years!
One of the workers who was slightly more experienced immediately picked up his cell phone to call the police and asked others not to come near to avoid destroying any clues.
Although the person was in the yard, Lin Luo, who knew what was going on through her mental power, frowned slightly. She had more experience than those people. Judging from the degree of decay of the corpse, it would not have happened more than a year ago, and it was very likely about half a year.
That is the time when she was already in Zhoujiawu.
It's not like the end of the world now. Murder is a serious crime, especially for people in a small village like this. The probability of a murder happening is even lower.
Although some villagers in Zhoujiawu are ignorant and selfish, they wouldn't kill people, right?
It looks like they buried the body here in the middle of the night. Didn't they expect anything to happen at the sanatorium?
Lin Luo's mental power only covers a range of 100 meters around her body when she is sleeping. This distance is far beyond her control, so she doesn't know the truth of the matter.
But when he saw several policemen getting out of the police car and the quickly set up cordon, Lin Luo knew that the matter at the sanatorium could not go on for the time being.
At this time, there are still more than a month and four days until the end of the world.
