Chapter 33 33. The most romantic

How strange.

Huai Yu held his chin and looked at Lin Xuefeng seriously. He was carefully sprinkling salt into the pot with his hands. His expression was focused and gentle without a trace of aggression.

But thinking of the means the other party mentioned...

Wow! Really cute!

"What you just said are all sure-kill methods, but what if you don't want the other person to die?"

She asked seriously.

Lin Xuefeng glanced at her with a half-smile: "When dealing with an enemy, if you don't want him to die, then you have no choice but to die yourself."

Then he looked at Huaiyu's fair little face, which looked as if she had just grown up, so he changed his words: "Have you heard of water knife? Compress all the water you can gather and release it quickly..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and casually drew a circle in the air on the blue bricks on the ground.

Huaiyu didn't even see the water flowing down, but in just a moment, a perfect circle had been cut out on the brick.

Her eyes widened and she picked up the brick. The heavy and thick circle in the center fell to the ground instantly, and only a cut frame was left in her hand.

"So round..."

She looked at Lin Xuefeng expectantly. Lin Xuefeng choked for a moment, then said speechlessly, "What are you thinking? My ability can only allow me to cut, but it won't allow me to draw a circle that is rounder... Well, maybe it's because I studied painting before."

"Drawing a circle with your freehand is nothing."

Huaiyu nodded slightly disappointedly, and then asked, "What about my ability? It's so weak, what means can I use to subdue the enemy now?"

The beans in the pot were already roasted. Lin Xuefeng carefully took the pot down and stared at the beans without blinking: "Wood system...it depends on which specific applications are focused on."

"Generally speaking, affinity can only prevent mutant plants from attacking easily. The other means... are mostly to train the growth speed. Quickly build a fence or use seeds to parasitize, or vines to entangle."

"But your mutation value is too low, so your ability is weak, and you probably can't induce birth at all."

Huaiyu nodded: "I just finished giving birth to a branch, and I'm so tired that I can't even lift my arms. I need to rest for a long time."

"What should I do if I encounter such a criminal next time?"

Lin Xuefeng pondered for a moment.

Although the serious criminals could not easily escape, and no one dared to approach the Rose Corridor, if the other party did not have the same plan as him to sneak across the river at night, he would not have come here at all.

I guess the defending army surrounded the people too tightly, and they became desperate.

But... the probability of danger and safety is only 0 and 100. He would not think that Huai Yu was worrying too much, but after careful consideration, he gave an answer: "Exercise more and go out less."

"Ah?" Huai Yu was stunned.

“There’s no other way,” Lin Xuefeng spread his hands. “Actively increasing the mutation value is like drinking poison to quench thirst. Every increase will be accompanied by years of pain. If you don’t pay attention to it and it is contaminated and increases to the critical value, you will go crazy and die.”

"But if the mutation value is not increased, the strength of the superpower cannot be trained... They have been researching this for five or six years but have not come up with a more reliable method."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and murmured, "If the pollution is slowly resolved over time, the supernatural power may also disappear."

"That's fine. In times of chaos, we need strong people to motivate people, but in a peaceful society, what's more important is the country's order and the sword's edge."

Huaiyu listened silently without expressing any opinion.

However, Lin Xuefeng's slight melancholy only lasted for a brief moment. After all, it had been six years, and the pollution value had been fluctuating every year. It would probably take a long time to wait for it to disappear.

At this moment, he turned his thoughts back to Huaiyu's problem: "So, while you are still young, you should run more often with bricks and tree trunks. The faster you run, the stronger you will be, and the greater your chances of survival when you encounter danger."

"If we encounter a formidable opponent..."

He picked up a bean and gave a suggestion for sustainable development: "If it doesn't work, you can find mutant plants, such as the rose corridor, such as Sanqing Mountain. Have you been to Sanqing Mountain? There used to be a Taoist temple on the mountain. The environment is actually quite good. The main root system of the rose corridor is there."

"This was once the Sanqing Mountain where many people came from afar to explore, and now it is also a barrier for us to protect our homeland."

"If you are desperate, just find a way to hide there. There is a 50% chance that they will not actively attack the wood-type mutants."

After saying this, Lin Xuefeng crushed the beans with a crunch.

Huaiyu stared at him with fierce eyes.

The other party laughed: "Little girl, you have a lot of secrets and a very vicious heart - Hey, how old are you? Why do you live here alone?"

"Forget it, forget it. Don't tell me. I'm going to the wasteland soon. It's useless to know. Why are you staring at me like that? Do you have something to say?"

Huaiyu said it seriously, word for word: "It's a waste of my beans to listen to your words."

She snatched the pot away: "Don't eat so much, I can only give you half. And if you eat too much, you will fart at night and you will have to sleep outside."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Lin Xuefeng laughed loudly, his voice clear. It must be said that on this cold rainy night, his presence also made Huaiyu relax unconsciously.

"You're overthinking. It's just a handful of beans... Is there any weight in this pot? We'll each have half, just a handful. How can you fart?"

"How can a young girl worry about such things?"

Huaiyu wrinkled his nose: "I shouldn't be a kid anymore."

"Um?"

"I lost my memory. When I woke up, I had nothing but the clothes on my body. I had to find my way around by myself. Everyone thought I was very young, but I didn't think I was that young - I must be an adult."

Her expression was calm when she said this. She didn't have the solemnity of revealing a secret, nor the relief of a burden. It was as if she was just chatting casually.

Lin Xuefeng didn't think there was anything wrong.

People who often live alone are more likely to reveal their true feelings to strangers who they feel safe with. Even he cannot avoid it.

For example, at this moment, probably no one knows that Lin Xuefeng, the former garrison officer who was supposed to be recuperating in the imperial capital, would come to the Rose Corridor of Flower City on this rainy night.

Just because he felt that this was the most romantic road leading to the wilderness.

Fortunately, Huaiyu really seemed to have never heard of him.

The girl opposite still had baby fat on her face, and was clearly only sixteen or seventeen years old, but Lin Xuefeng did not disbelieve what she said.

At this moment, he just stared at Huaiyu, and then suddenly sighed: "The teacher who taught me painting before could look at bone age, and he could tell your approximate age based on your body shape."

"Unfortunately, I'm not very good at it."

"so……"

He suddenly smiled smugly: "You should just stay as a little girl! Sometimes, being younger has many advantages."

That's true.

Huaiyu also admitted that both Captain Zhou and Boss Tang actually treated her as a little girl, so they were more patient and tolerant when they first met.

Here we come! 　　(End of this chapter)
