Chapter 42 Who?
After reporting back to the Sect Master Peak, Wen Baizhou went to the outer gate.
He was already familiar with the way to the outer disciples' residences. He landed from mid-air at a distance, walked along the path where there were no flower petals, and saw a lighted house at the end.
It’s here as expected.
He walked into the yard full of vegetables, herbs and flowers, climbed the steps, stood in front of the door and knocked twice.
There were two sounds, neither loud nor soft, which were loud enough for the people inside to hear under normal circumstances. But today was different. There was a faint knocking sound coming from inside, each one unreal and just covering up the knocking on the door.
Light flickered faintly from under the door, but no one answered the door.
After standing in front of the door for a while, Wen Baizhou turned around and walked to the side of the yard.
The flowers and plants in the yard facing the window grow better, and are stained by the warm yellow light coming in from the window, and sway slowly in the wind in the silence.
Standing by the window, he saw a figure in the house.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, with his sleeves lifted up and then slid down, his long hair hanging down and mixed with the hem of his clothes scattered on the ground, he was holding a hammer in his hand and hitting something hard, his eyebrows and eyes were working hard.
As if noticing him, he quickly turned his head, glanced over here, and then stopped.
The frown that was unconsciously furrowed due to the effort relaxed, and the expression on his face changed instantly. His eyes curved into a smile, and he put down the hammer and waved his hand in surprise, "Big Brother is back?"
He seemed to want to come over, but when he was about to stand up, he saw the thing in his hand that was shaking, so he stopped in time.
Lin Zhusheng was building his third box, and he really felt that the box would fall apart as soon as he left. He looked left and right, and finally pointed to the window and said, "I can't leave, and I can't open the door. Brother, please come in from here."
Lin, an experienced player with a lot of experience in window climbing, nodded and said affirmatively: "It's fast and convenient here."
“…”
The bright and cheerful eldest brother then climbed through the window for the first time in his life, leaning on the windowsill and leaping into the room.
After entering the room, the knocking sounds suddenly became several times louder, and the clanging continued. Raising his head slightly, he looked at a talisman above the windowsill.
"That was given to me by my friend, the silencing note."
Noticing what he was looking at, Lin Zhusheng explained, "It can prevent the sound in the room from spreading out. It's very useful."
Like a diode, it transmits sound in one direction. Sounds from outside can come in, but all sounds except human voices cannot get out. It is the latest masterpiece of Zhang Jing next door. He spent several snacks to buy it. It is very suitable for people like him who have clumsy hands but like to do some woodworking in the house.
He also solemnly introduced the wooden box 3.0 in his hand, which was a tattered piece but actually almost complete.
As if he was shocked by the results of his work, the eldest brother was silent for a moment, then praised that he could see that he had worked hard, and asked: "Do you need any help?"
The wooden box would most likely fall apart if not handled, so Master Lin had to do it from start to finish by himself. He just shook his head and said no need.
As he moved, his hair, which was in a messy state almost like it was when he just woke up, swayed and slid down his shoulders, blocking his vision.
Putting the long sword at his waist aside, Wen Baizhou bent down and asked, "Do you need help tying your hair?"
His hair blocked his vision, and Master Lin had no reason to refuse the help of the eldest brother, so he nodded and thanked him.
The blue and white clip buried in the hair was removed, and the long hair cascaded down and slid through the fingers.
The eldest brother's haircut was very comfortable and painless. After Lin Zhusheng thanked him, he ignored it and focused on tapping. Although he was not very skilled, he boldly asked while tapping: "How did the eldest brother come back so soon?"
[You obtained: Polar Ice Cloud Ribbon (Red) x1]
"?"
A message popped up while he was busy working. The hardworking Master Lin paused and turned around in confusion.
"The matter of returning to Yucheng is not complicated, so I came back early."
The eldest brother's hand had already left his head, and the ice-blue headband he had just added blended into his hair, hanging down smoothly. He said, "This is a gift. Wearing it will clear your mind and improve your eyesight."
Guiyu City is the number one city in the world, where powerful people gather and there are many rare treasures. As long as you want, you can find it by looking for it.
Master Lin received another gift before he gave out his own gift, which boosted his favorability. He said thank you out of habit, but then realized that something was wrong.
Red product!
Although the eldest brother described the efficacy and properties as very ordinary, if the system is not wrong, this is indeed a genuine red product.
This thing was really impossible to collect. His heart skipped a beat and he reached out to grab it.
Small gifts can be accepted, and it's not that too expensive things cannot be accepted, but at this stage I can't return the gift. If I put something in him, I won't get something equivalent out, which is no different from robbery.
His hand that was trying to grab was held down by the eldest brother. He raised his head and met a pair of drooping eyes.
No words were spoken, but the meaning was clear.
"I don't have anything to give you."
Master Lin scratched his head, feeling frightened. He moved his gaze to the broken wooden box and then quickly looked away. He took out the orchid flower that he always kept with him and looked tentatively at the eldest brother.
It seems that I am not yet ready to like Lanjunhua, and the little flower is still not accepted.
This time he really didn't know what to give, so he changed his hand and scratched his head, asking, "Big Brother, do you have anything else you like?"
If there was something more ordinary, he should be able to get it if he thought of a way.
The eldest brother lowered his head and said, "As long as I like it, it's fine?"
"Anything is fine," Lin, who is not currently wealthy, then quickly added, "as long as it's something I can give."
"You want to see..."
He also wanted to take the opportunity to promote a stone shaped like a bear's head that he had found in a mountain before, but before he could finish his words, Wen Baizhou had already bent down and buried his head loosely on his shoulder.
“…”
Very good, Lin Zhusheng didn’t dare to move. He stiffened his neck and kept the same posture, and asked in a low voice: "Big Brother?"
Buried in his neck, the eldest brother's voice sounded a little muffled, not as cold as usual, "Maybe I can lean on you for a while?"
There was a hint of fatigue in his voice. The trip back to Yucheng should not be as easy as he said.
Lin Zhusheng thought about it, then reached out and pushed the person away.
The force is not great, but the person leaning on it can clearly feel it. The fingers at his side moved slightly, and Wen Baizhou opened his eyes. His pupils were hidden in the shadow of the backlight, and the corners of his mouth tightened slightly.
Rejected, he paused for a moment, then stood up and slowly walked away.
After pushing the man away with his hand, Lin Zhusheng explained: "I'm dirty."
There were pieces of broken wood at his feet, and his body was covered with sawdust. If they had been any closer, both of them would have been dead.
As soon as he said this, the person who had been slowly leaving came back again, hugging him even tighter this time. With one scoop of his hands, he covered his entire body. Wood chips flew up with the movement and stained the corners of his blue and white clothes.
Now, no need to worry, both of them are finished.
Since it was already over, there was no need to worry. Lin Zhusheng resigned himself to his fate and changed his sitting position to cross-legged, which was a more convenient position for people to lean on.
Rather than leaning, he felt that this action might be more appropriately called hugging.
Forget it, the title doesn’t matter, as long as the eldest brother is happy.
A long time ago, he often saw his father coming home and howling at his mother and hugging her. He was influenced by this and although he had never hugged anyone before, he still understood the procedure. He reached out his hand unskillfully and gently patted the person on the back.
He patted her, and the person hugged him tighter, and his nose was filled with a clear and crisp smell similar to that of pine and cypress.
I never knew that the eldest brother, who looks so serious, is actually the type who likes to hug people.
He reached out and patted, and out of the corner of his eye he saw that the kitten sleeping in the room had gotten up from its nest, its fur disheveled from sleep, and was standing at the door of the room, looking at him and a certain senior brother with its lifeless cat eyes.
“…”
After a brief silence, the kitten went back to sleep with lifeless eyes and messy fur, pretending that it saw nothing.
The lights flickered and the room was silent, save for the sound of gentle pats on the back. With one hand on the ground and the other patting his back, Lin Zhusheng watched the light swaying slowly. He felt that the candlelight seemed to have burned a lot. He turned around and asked, "Brother, are you tired from going to... um, that city this time?"
If he was not mistaken, it seemed like they had been hugging for quite a while. How tired must you be to take such a long rest?
"some."
Wen Baizhou did not deny it. He breathed in the close woody aroma and the slightly bitter smell of herbs. He opened his eyes, his deep pupils hidden in the darkness, and said, "I have been thinking, what should I do if you leave during this time."
His next words were very soft, and the breath he brought with him spread on his neck. Master Lin, who was ticklish, was so busy fighting the itch that he didn't hear a single word. After holding it in for a while, he could only utter a patient breath, "Hmm?"
He tilted his head slightly, and the itchy feeling disappeared. He made a sound to ask the senior brother to repeat it.
The eldest brother said it was okay and asked him if he had a good time during the competition.
Lin Zhusheng leaned over and rubbed his chin, then said, "Are you happy?"
I don’t know whether he is happy or not, but he earns a lot.
After thinking about it, he nodded and said affirmatively: "I am happy."
I got all kinds of high-quality tea fruits for free. Although I almost stabbed a young sect leader to death with a sword, the ending was still good. I made money and upgraded my rank. The small broken wooden sword was also upgraded to a real sword.
Thinking of his new sword, he paused patting his back, took out the sword and demonstrated it in all directions, with automatic artificial mouth-moving dubbing.
His dubbing was so sincere and emotional that the eldest senior brother couldn't help laughing. He took the sword and looked at it carefully for a few more times.
The eldest senior brother looked at the sword, while Lin Zhusheng passionately explained: "...It was a dangerous situation at that time. I had just got the sword, and I almost stabbed Chen Jinghao. Ah, I had a problem, and he was also responsible. He actually bumped into the sword directly."
Sensing that something had been passed over in an instant, the fingers that were brushing against the sword stopped.
“…”
The smile at the corner of his eyes disappeared, and Wen Baizhou raised his head, "Who?"
