Duan Linzhou arrived early and had already dug up a lot, so the two of them went directly to the old man to exchange for medicine.
After Lin Hu and Liu Xu sent each other a message, the two of them decided to come and see Lin Hu in person.
Actually, it's about shipping couples.
Lin Hu didn't stop him; it would be good for them to meet and get to know his 'employees'.
Duan Linzhou and Lin Hu went directly to the old man's place, and Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao also went there to meet him.
The old man was lazy. He simply sat to the side and asked the others to take out their items one by one and count them for him. He then stood there fanning himself with his large palm-leaf fan and watching.
"There are 433 in total," Duan Linzhou said to the old man after calculating.
This basket has the same space as their backpacks, allowing them to store a lot of supplies; one basket can hold up to 500 items.
When it's packed, only a few bamboo shoots are visible, but in reality, it's already packed with a huge pile.
Duan Linzhou then took them out one by one, piling them up into a small mountain.
Lin Hu and Duan Linzhou together only have 433 bamboo shoots, which can only be exchanged for 433 drops of potion. Their raft has 2,000 planks, so they have to keep digging.
Their group, including Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao's, should weigh close to 300 jin (150 catties). The others should be coming back soon to exchange for the medicine, as they won't be able to take much more medicine today.
Anyway, there's no time limit for the mission, they can come again tomorrow.
It's getting dark, they should go back and get something to eat.
Lin Hu also invited Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao to visit him on his raft.
"Let's go to my place for a meal before you leave. I'll cook." Because Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao's gazes were too strange, Lin Hu only let Duan Linzhou support him this time.
"Hmmmm!"
The two looked at each other and nodded excitedly in unison.
Their rafts weren't very big, and the bamboo shoots they dug today were enough to exchange for the corresponding medicine. So they'll probably go back today and continue drifting at sea.
Duan Linzhou was a little annoyed, but since Lin Hu had invited him, he couldn't possibly turn him away.
Liu Xu and Duan Linzhou looked at each other. Thinking of what the other party had said when they met that morning, she patted Sun Xiaoxiao's leg with her hand hanging by her side.
Sun Xiaoxiao turned to look at Liu Xu with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
Willow Catkins: Damn! Don't you know you should wait three seconds before turning around when you're criticizing someone for being lazy?!
Sun Xiaoxiao also felt wronged; how could she know what the other party wanted to do?
Duan Linzhou bent down and picked Lin Hu up in his arms, then strode forward.
"Duan Linzhou, what are you doing!" Lin Hu was startled, and then, remembering that there were two other people watching, she struggled to get down, but the other person held her even tighter.
"Don't move around, what if you fall?" Duan Linzhou wouldn't let go, and bounced her up a few more times before quickly taking a few steps forward to distance himself from the two girls.
"Ahhhh! A princess carry! Xiaoxiao, I'm going crazy! I'm totally smitten!"
"Aaaaaah! Me too! Me too!"
"What do you call this? A domineering CEO's exclusive pampering of a seductive little fox who doesn't even realize it!"
"Sister, you're such a connoisseur!"
Sun Xiaoxiao and Liu Xu got excited again and whispered behind the two of them. Lin Hu couldn't hear them, but Duan Linzhou could hear them clearly.
Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood before; it turned out that he and Lin Hu were not being compared as rivals, but as a couple.
Duan Linzhou felt a bit better and slowed down his pace so that the two girls could keep up.
When they were almost at the raft, Sun Xiaoxiao and Liu Xu realized something was wrong.
"Brother Lin, is your raft here?" Liu Xu asked Lin Hu, her brows furrowed and her face full of confusion, pointing to the sea less than ten meters away.
"Yes, it's right there, what's wrong?" Lin Hu pointed to the large wooden raft floating on the sea, sensing that Liu Xu's words were not simple.
He was still in Duan Linzhou's arms, and he wasn't shy anymore, letting Duan Linzhou hold him. He would put him down when he got tired anyway.
"I can't see anything on the sea," Liu Xu replied, still looking puzzled. She wasn't sure if the Linhu raft was too small, so she frowned and looked more closely.
Lin Hu assumed the other person couldn't see, then glanced at Sun Xiaoxiao beside him and asked, "You can't see either?"
“Yes, yes!” Sun Xiaoxiao nodded quickly in agreement.
She has a bit of social anxiety. Before, when she was video chatting with so many people online, she seemed a little reserved, let alone now that they are face to face. She only relaxes when she is alone with Liu Xu.
Lin Hu looked up at Duan Linzhou, who was looking at the raft not far away.
Night had fallen halfway down, and everything was shrouded in a gray haze, with only the faint warm light from the small nightlight shining through the living room's floor-to-ceiling windows.
After confirming that Duan Linzhou could see, Lin Hu had a suspicion and decided to verify it.
"Let's go take a look," Lin Hu said to the others, then floated over first and stopped in front of his raft.
Once the group arrived, Lin Hu flew onto the raft. Turning around, he saw Liu Xu and Sun Xiaoxiao staring at him with wide, shocked eyes, but they seemed not to see him at all.
When Lin Hu came out, the two were even more shocked and asked, "Brother Lin, what happened?"
"I guess it's the system's protection mechanism. Players can't see other rafts besides their own, so they probably can't get on them either," Lin Hu explained. He then thought that Duan Linzhou always went straight back to his raft after killing the mutated beasts on the island, which was a bit strange.
How could he see his raft?
"What do we do now?" Liu Xu asked in confusion. She and Sun Xiaoxiao had been craving Lin Hu's cooking for a long time.
Since the end of the extreme cold, the two of them have not received any more of Lin Hu's friendly meals. They are also quite frugal and have not gone to Duan Bohai's place to buy stir-fries. They have always bought their own groceries and cooked for themselves.
“I’ll take the things out, and we’ll do it on the shore,” Lin Hu said.
Flying into the house, he carried Boss Zhou out and gave him to the two girls to keep them from getting too bored.
Lin Hu set up a fire and a pot on the side, while Duan Linzhou went to the raft to get some vegetables to pick and wash.
Sun Xiaoxiao was a little incredulous to see Duan Linzhou disappear and reappear in the same way as Lin Hu, with something in his hand.
Is this a raft that can freely enter and exit Linhu Lake?
That's strange.
Sun Xiaoxiao mentioned this to Liu Xu with some confusion, only to find that Liu Xu had also noticed it, but she said that true love can overcome everything.
Sun Xiaoxiao: You're totally obsessed!
The two girls teased Mr. Zhou for a while before he realized he didn't know the dog's name.
"Brother Lin, what's the name of this puppy?" Liu Xu asked loudly, looking up.
"Zhou... Little Zhou Zhou." Lin Hu originally wanted to say Boss Zhou, but the name 'Boss Zhou' was too well-known.
If they had heard it was Boss Zhou, the two of them would have thought he was making a veiled attack and started doing the same thing. Every time he shipped goods to someone, wouldn't people think he was a dog?
Although 'Boss Zhou' was initially intended as a brand name for Duan Linzhou, he later named the puppy that to tease Duan Linzhou.
In the end, the person behind 'Boss Zhou' turned out to be him.
