Chapter 26 Gift
Not daring to let go, Lin Zhusheng held the man's neck tightly with his free hand, fearing that he would be thrown out.
He was not thrown out, nor did he fall to the ground as expected, but landed safely.
To be precise, the eldest brother landed safely on the ground, but he was still hanging in the air with his feet not touching the ground.
Relying on his tenacious survival instinct, at the moment of falling, he had already wrapped his hands and feet around his senior brother like branches, and tightly closed the windows of his soul, commonly known as eyes.
A person grew out of his body. It wasn't heavy, but the space was compressed. Wen Baizhou patted the person on his body gently and said, "You can open your eyes now."
Lin Zhusheng then opened his eyes.
After opening his eyes, his vision was still dark. He was shocked: "Am I blind?"
He moved his head and saw light, and then he realized that he was still tightly attached to the clothes.
No wonder everything in front of me is physically black. The altitude had returned to normal, and he jumped down quickly, his feet landed on solid ground again, and he made a sound of finally surviving, giving a big gift to his helpful senior brother who had arrived in time.
There was a chance to be thanked. The kitten, who had been covering his ears and pretending not to exist, reappeared and stepped on his foot with one paw, clearly indicating that it also needed to be thanked.
Lin Zhusheng responded by picking up the kitten and putting it in his clothes. He looked up and found that the collar of the person in front of him was a lot messier than usual. Feeling a little guilty, he reached out his hand to tidy it up twice. After the person said it was not to worry about it, he withdrew his hand lightly and said sorry.
The collar of his clothes was slightly messy, but it was not a big deal, so Wen Baizhou did not care too much about it. He just lowered his head and casually adjusted it twice, and finally had time to ask the reason for the incident.
Lin Zhusheng picked up the small broken wooden sword on the ground, laughed dryly twice, and told the whole story in a nutshell.
The eldest brother was very good at summarizing. He lowered his head and listened for a long time, and finally concluded: "Afraid of heights?"
I am indeed afraid of heights. Having his pain point accurately poked, the acrophobic person squatted down, curled up into a ball while hugging his wooden sword, and chose to change the subject, asking: "Why did you come here today, Senior Brother?"
Although his brain wasn't working very well before, his ears were still good and he remembered that Xiaomao said he should go find Zhang Jing.
"I just got something."
Following the people who had huddled together, Wen Baizhou half-knelt down, held out something, and said, "You might be able to use it."
A small silver clip with light blue lines spreading out from the edge, like a butterfly, but also a little different. In short, it looks very delicate.
Lin Zhusheng raised his eyes, "What is this?"
The eldest brother borrowed his headband.
Since the last time we met, he tied her hairband into the shape of duck intestines, with all sorts of twists and turns. The two headbands were mixed and threaded into the slits of the clips and then tied securely.
The clip for tying the headband was on his head, just enough to hold the hair on both sides that often blocked his view.
Wen Baizhou took his hand back and said, "It's quite convenient. You should be able to use it."
The implication is that anyone with clumsy hands can use it, as long as they have hands. It was over before he could react. Lin Zhusheng raised his hand and touched the thing behind his head in a daze.
[You got: Blue Hairpin (Orange) x1]
It’s still an orange product!
As expected, he is the eldest senior brother... No, that’s not right.
After being surprised, Lin Zhusheng quickly calmed down. It was his impression that only when the favorability reached a certain level would the gift-sending process be triggered, but he had never given any gifts to this senior brother who only liked orchid flowers, so his favorability should be quite low.
Scratching his head, he asked carefully to be on the safe side, "Is it for me?"
There is only him and the cat here. The kitten is very small and has short fur. It seems that it will not be able to use this thing. Obviously, there is only one answer to the question.
Confused, he couldn't help scratching his head again, then realized he hadn't said thank you yet, so he quickly added one.
It was just a small thing, so the eldest brother said you were welcome to thank him, and said, "If you are afraid of heights but still want to practice swordplay, you can go to the trading office and see if you can find something useful."
After he finished speaking, he stood up, the long sword at his waist was sharp and his waist was still straight as a pine tree. It seemed that he was obviously planning to leave.
Lin Zhusheng then stood up as well and asked, "Is the senior brother leaving?"
Wen Baizhou nodded and said, "There are still some things."
There was no way to keep them since something happened, so Lin Zhusheng watched them leave.
When the blue and white figures disappeared, the sound of swords rang through the sky and disappeared in an instant.
After looking at it for a while longer, Lin Zhusheng slowly retracted his gaze. He finally came to his senses and poked the kitten in his clothes, wondering, "So, did Senior Brother come here specially to deliver something today?"
He's in such a remote place, no matter where he's going, it doesn't look like he would just happen to come here.
The kitten didn't know, it just moved a little to tell him not to poke its head for no reason.
Feeling a little strange, Lin Zhusheng put away his broken wooden sword, thought for a moment, and said, "Speaking of which, it seems that Senior Brother has never taken the initiative to give anything to me before."
In the past, he was the one who kept sending gifts to increase his favorability, but he never received a single gift in return. This was also the case after they became Taoist companions. Or maybe he just couldn't stand the fact that other players had Taoist companions who helped them with quests and sent them gifts, so he typed a bunch of crying emojis in the input box and then inexplicably received the gifts from them.
It's so easy now that I don't even have time to start improving my favorability.
...favorability.
Favorability!
He finally knew where the weirdest thing was! He held the kitten in his arms and shook it twice, and said, "By the way, why can't I see the favorability of Senior Brother?"
As long as he wanted, he could theoretically view the basic attribute panels of all characters, including levels and favorability. He also increased the favorability of many people, but it seemed that he had never seen the favorability of this senior brother towards him once.
As it was suspected to be a bug, the kitten finally struggled to get up, and stopped the man's shaking hand in time, and began to check the system background.
The system data was huge and it took a minute and a half to search it. The people around me also remained quiet for a rare minute and a half. I closed my eyes and opened them again. The kitten jumped out of my clothes and gave my search results: "No bugs were found. Everything is normal."
This doesn't look like there are no bugs. Lin Zhusheng opened his eyes and bent down to catch the cat, but the kitten had expected it and jumped away. He persuaded him, "What does it matter? Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It won't prevent you from gaining favorability."
Nong Fulin, who is very pragmatic in this regard, refuses to compromise: "I will only feel at ease if I see the progress bar, and this is absolutely not acceptable."
Kitten: "The system will compensate you with 1,000 silver."
Nong Fulin looked up and bargained: "2000."
kitten:"……"
The problem of the eldest brother's favorability was finally solved with two thousand silvers. Regardless of the kitten for the time being, Farmer Lin was very satisfied. He put away his sword and took his newly obtained hairpin to the transaction place mentioned by the eldest brother.
There is a commercial street for outer sect servants and a trading place for inner and outer sect disciples. Simply put, they are places for trading and completing tasks. Because he bought too many seeds at one time and still hasn't used them up, he has no desire to buy more, so he has never gone to see it. It is obvious that I cannot continue practicing sword skills today, so going for a walk is a good way to kill some time.
Putting aside the question of killing time for now, he definitely got enough exercise today.
From where he lived to the trading office, by the time he finally saw the lights on, the sky had already darkened and the last bit of light disappeared from the distant mountains.
Compared to the previous commercial street where people could set up stalls and start selling things, the trading area seems more formal. There are wooden houses on both sides of the road, and large windows facing the road, which are the windows for transactions.
Even at night there are still quite a few people here. Judging from their attire, there are both inner and outer disciples, but the inner disciples are fewer in number and seem more scarce.
Although he had never been there, his curiosity was slightly aroused. Lin Zhusheng walked down the street holding the kitten, looking left and right.
The place where even the inner disciples were strolling around was indeed different. The quality of the items traded had improved a lot compared to the previous street they had visited, and you could even occasionally see items with attribute bonuses.
But none of these things attracted him, so he ended up buying a few things necessary for making snacks, and took out some fruits to eat while walking around.
There is also a mission center hidden inside the trading office, and there are a lot more people inside than on the road.
The task center is run by the sect. It usually releases some daily tasks or difficult tasks that require certain abilities. Rewards will be given after completion. In addition, other disciples and elders can also post tasks here. As long as the remuneration is appropriate and passes the review, someone will take it up.
It is well known that most of the sword cultivators' money is spent on the blade, a blade in the physical sense. The money they can control is very limited. Completing tasks is a good and important source of money to maintain the sword.
Missions with high rewards are usually snapped up as soon as they appear. Most of the remaining ones at night are those issued by sects that do not pay much but are very rewarding, such as clearing out harmful beasts in a certain mountain.
The kitten was also watching and looked up and said, "Why don't you take it? It'll just give you some experience."
Although Lin Zhusheng ran all over the mountains every day, he had no intention of really going into the mountains to kill the pests, so he declined: "I'm not in a hurry to level up now."
The next upgrade to expand his backpack would be at level ten, which was too far away, so he was not in a hurry.
After looking around and not seeing anyone he liked, he stepped out of the mission center before becoming a motionless roadblock in the crowd.
The area behind the mission center is different from the place we passed before. The things sold there are more practical. They are all sword-related, including but not limited to swords and materials for forging swords.
Each item is followed by a price that is even more shocking than the item itself. If it were converted into numbers, there would be several zeros at the end.
Feeling that this was not the place he should come at this stage, he just took a quick look around and was about to leave. As if he had telepathy, or maybe he was simply sensitive to low prices, Lin Zhusheng saw a very friendly price among a bunch of outrageous prices and paused in his steps to leave.
A small sword, hanging in the corner of the window, is as inconspicuous as its price.
