On the first day of living in the new house, Yun Shu was obviously not used to sleeping in bed.
Lin Luo just looked at the man lying there straight. He didn't say anything because he was not used to it. If he didn't ask, he would probably keep his eyes open until dawn.
"Is the bed too soft?"
Lin Luo took a look at the latex mattress he had bought specially.
Yun Shu nodded, "Lolo, can I sleep on the floor?"
It's rare for him to speak such a long sentence, and he does it so smoothly without stuttering. Is it possible that he has made such progress just by watching videos for an afternoon?
Seeing that Lin Luo did not respond immediately, Yun Shu looked at him again and again.
His eyes are like those of a newborn puppy, so watery that it makes people's hearts soften at first sight.
Lin Luo: "...Okay, as long as you feel comfortable."
——Could this look be learned from those kids in the video?
The thought flashed through his mind, and Lin Luo was too lazy to delve into it.
The floor was swept very clean and the room was very large. The bed took up less than one-third of the room. You could just move the mat on the bed to the floor and sleep there directly.
Lin Luo discovered that Yun Shu was also not used to using pillows, and she didn't think about asking him to get used to everything. This was fine.
When he closed the door again, Yun Shu had already closed her eyes obediently. Lin Luo took one last look at her and returned to his room to start his practice today.
Hearing the slight sound of the door closing opposite, Yun Shu, who had originally closed his eyes, twitched his eyelids slightly, opened his eyes a little and looked at the room curiously.
Dark blue curtains, off-white cabinets, a big TV...
The darkness had no effect on Yunshu's vision. He could see everything very clearly, even the dark patterns on the wallpaper were clear.
——Lolo said that this is his room.
——He can arrange it as he pleases in the future.
——It’s his.
A hint of genuine joy flashed in Yun Shu's eyes. He had lived in the mountains since he could remember, and seemed to know what he could eat and what he couldn't eat naturally.
After growing up and stumbling into his teens, he met Lolo’s...grandfather.
It wasn't that Yun Shu hadn't encountered people while growing up, but every time, those people either ran away in fear or tried desperately to drive him away by throwing things at him.
After a few times, Yun Shu lost interest in this creature that looked very similar to himself. After all, he could live well alone.
But Luo Xingbai is different.
When we met for the first time, the old man was indeed surprised at first, but he quickly calmed down.
Luo Xingbai seemed to "know" Yun Shu, knowing that he could understand what he meant, and began to teach him little by little, bringing him delicious food...
He also told Yunshu that he was thirteen years old this year and would be fourteen after the New Year.
However, such days lasted less than two months.
Luo Xingbai died.
Yun Shu understood that once dead, it would never appear again, just like the little rabbit he used to raise.
If you don't move it, it will rot and get infested with bugs in a few days.
In the days that followed, Yunshu continued to live in the mountains, and occasionally came to visit the house at night.
He didn't know what he was waiting for, but he just... wanted to see.
——Lolo.
Yun Shu called out the name one last time in his heart, and closed his eyes again with a smile on his lips.
This time, I really fell asleep.
"chestnut?"
In the morning, while eating buns, Lin Luo casually chatted with Yun Shu and asked him what he usually eats in the mountains. He didn't expect to hear such a familiar name.
She was afraid that Yunshu would admit her mistake, so she took out her phone and searched for pictures of chestnuts. "Is this it?"
Although she had lived in Zhoujiawu for quite some time, she still didn't know there were chestnuts here.
Yun Shu nodded, then added, "It's delicious."
Of course she knows.
Lin Luo really likes eating chestnuts. Calculating the time, it seems that chestnuts are ripe now. "Is it far from here?"
Yun Shu shook his head, "Not far."
Lin Luo thought that since he had nothing to do later, he might as well go pick some wild chestnuts. It is said that wild chestnuts are more fragrant.
Moreover, chestnuts can be frozen directly in the refrigerator and can be kept for a long time.
They acted immediately. After breakfast, they changed into rubber shoes and carried a bamboo basket that looked very old. Lin Luo and Yun Shu decided to go up the mountain to pick chestnuts.
So, when she came back from the field to see if Lin Luo needed help, Grandma Yao, who was not used to living there, came to find Lin Luo empty-handed.
She thought Lin Luo had gone to town early in the morning, so she didn't think much about it and just waited until the evening to check again.
Meanwhile, Lin Luo had a new understanding of what Yun Shu meant by "not far away". It made sense. If it was really not far away, it would have been discovered by the villagers of Zhoujiawu long ago.
It’s not Lin Luo’s turn yet.
But to use an old saying - now we're here.
Lin Luo followed Yun Shu firmly, holding a sickle to clear the way.
After walking for about three hours, Lin Luo was sure that they were no longer on Xiaowu Mountain, but on an unknown, taller, and less visited mountain.
After walking for another half an hour, Yun Shu finally turned his head and pointed to a spot not far away. "That, chestnut!"
Lin Luo followed the direction of his finger and indeed saw two or three chestnut trees full of prickly chestnuts.
Then the next second, Yun Shu stepped directly onto the tree next to him, and using the reaction force to pull the branches with both hands, he quickly swung to the next tree. In a few more blinks of an eye, only his tiny back could be seen.
——At his speed, it’s not far. It seems that I am the one who is dragging this person down.
If Lin Luo really wanted to, she could use her mental power to reach this speed, but she still walked obediently step by step to the chestnut tree.
A lot of ripe chestnuts had fallen on the ground, and the holes were wide open, revealing the brown chestnuts inside.
Lin Luo's eyes lit up. He put on gloves, peeled off the thorny shell, and threw the kernels into the bamboo basket.
“Lolo!”
Yun Shu, who had climbed up the chestnut tree at some point, called out, but Lin Luo hadn't responded yet.
Brush la la la——
The branches were shaken, and countless chestnuts fell down.
Lin Luo, who was still below: "..."
She ran fast and was only hit on the arm by one bullet, which was not a serious problem. However, it still expressed a silent protest against Yun Shu's naughty behavior.
"Lolo?"
Yun Shu jumped down directly from a three or four meter high branch and came to Lin Luo in one stride, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
He seemed to know that what he had just done was wrong, but if he asked him why now, Yun Shu probably wouldn't be able to answer.
"Yun Shu."
"Um."
"I'm quite fragile, so be careful not to hurt me when playing." Lin Luo said. In fact, once she opened the mental shield, not only Chestnut, but even a knife could not hurt her.
After the level goes up, you will also be immune to bullets and other things.
But some things still need to be made clear to Yun Shu. He is very strong and might hurt himself if he is not careful. That would be an unjust death.
Yun Shu frowned, "Lolo, I'm sorry."
Yun Shu knew that one should say sorry when one does something wrong, and he took Lin Luo's words that he was fragile to heart, and later did some ridiculous things.
Of course, at this time, Lin Luo didn't know the impact of his words. He accepted the apology generously and asked Yun Shu to help pick chestnuts.
Unlike Lin Luo who needed to wear gloves, Yun Shu simply pinched one with one hand, not afraid of being pricked by the chestnut burrs at all.
With Yunshu's joining, the bamboo basket was two-thirds full in less than half an hour.
Seeing that this area had been mostly picked, Yun Shu once again jumped up the tree, but this time he knew to avoid Lin Luo and chose another tree that was taller and looked like it had more fruits.
Brush la la——
Chestnuts are rolling all over the ground again.
Before getting down from the tree, Yun Shu removed the hard shell of a chestnut and put it directly into his mouth to chew.
Seeing Lin Luo's gaze, he handed over another peeled chestnut, "Lolo, eat!"
Lin Luo did know that raw chestnuts were edible, but she had never eaten them before. Seeing the one in Yun Shu's hand, she took it and peeled off the soft brown and white outer layer, revealing the clean and golden chestnut kernel inside.
Then he took a small bite cautiously.
The flavor is completely different from the soft and glutinous cooked chestnuts. The raw chestnuts taste sweet and crispy, just like eating a kind of fruit.
Soon, Lin Luo finished the chestnuts in his hand in two bites and continued to pick up the newly fallen chestnuts.
——Lolo has to peel the chestnuts before eating them.
Yun Shu, who was standing by, remembered this and the next time he handed it to Lin Luo, he peeled the golden kernels cleanly.
They went up the mountain in the morning and got home in the evening. Lin Luo could only fill his stomach with chestnuts, and Yun Shu was probably extremely hungry.
But he did not leave Lin Luo to find food alone, but stayed by his side and worked together.
"What should I eat tonight?" Lin Luo looked at the full refrigerator and was in a dilemma about making a decision.
There are vegetables and meat, but if she wants to make it, it will probably take her an hour to steam the rice, and the taste is not guaranteed.
"Zongzi, please."
This will definitely be cooked after steaming for twenty minutes. Considering Yun Shu's appetite, Lin Luo took out another bag of frozen dumplings, but this time they were filled with pork and cabbage.
"Yunshu, do you want sweet or salty rice dumplings?"
Lin Luo likes salty rice dumplings, but his father likes sweet ones, so their family usually prepares two flavors of rice dumplings. This time, Lin Luo also bought two kinds.
"Anything is fine." Yun Shu is easy to feed and not picky about food at all.
Lin Luo directly steamed four rice dumplings, three salty and one sweet. She only had to eat one rice dumpling and a few more dumplings, and gave the rest to Yun Shu.
Boom boom boom——
"Girl Luo, are you at home? Girl Luo."
Just as Lin Luo finished steaming the rice dumplings and boiling the water, Grandma Yao's voice was heard.
"Yunshu, stay here and don't go out. Once the water boils, put the dumplings in and remember to stir them."
Yun Shu had seen Lin Luo cooking dumplings. Lin Luo was very confident in his learning ability, but he didn't know what Grandma Yao was doing when she suddenly came over.
The author has something to say: Yunshu is a guy with no sense of right and wrong...
