Chapter 255: April
Six o'clock.
Zhou Li and Brother Nan sat in the store, and they sat at the Eight Immortals table, looking at the menu on the wall and considering the order.
"Three catties of mutton, two catties of haggis, plus one lamb's blood and one baby cabbage. Brother Nan said.
"You two can't eat that much. The boss said.
"Three people. β
"I can't eat three. β
"Pack it back for your parents. β
"Oh so......"
After a while, Huai Xu walked in from the door, and he sat down naturally: "Have you ordered food?"
"Ordered. Zhou Li nodded.
"Is the teacher strict?"
"Not strictly. β
"Is it fun?"
"Fun. β
"You won't let me go!" Huai Xu was very angry, "I played a game at home this afternoon, and I met two hang-ups in one game, and there was a quarrel between two people in one game, and I was sent as soon as I came in, and I was so angry!"
"Oh. Zhou Li was not interested.
"I've met it too!" Brother Nan was interested, "This is the most annoying!"
"Yes, yes, I can't bring it with me. Huai Xu was very discouraged, "I have failed to become king again." β
Brother Nan was silent.
Fortunately, the boss brought the mutton soup in time, so she hurriedly distributed chopsticks to the two of them and helped them scoop the soup: "Taste it, Brother Ben Nan personally tested that this is the best mutton soup in the whole Yancheng, there is no one." β
Zhou Li sandwiched a piece of mutton first.
The taste is delicate and delicious, and it is not fat to eat it like this.
Then dip it in the dipping dish that comes with it, and the taste immediately becomes mellow and rich, which is already very delicious.
"Delicious!"
Then he scooped up a small spoonful of soup, blew it and drank it tentatively, and suddenly the whole tip of his tongue was full of the deliciousness of mutton soup. The taste spread all the way from the tip of the tongue to the base of the tongue, spanning a lot, which surprised him slightly.
"Delicious!"
Facts always prove that it is right to eat with Brother Nan.
"It's delicious!" Huai Xu's eyes seemed to be glowing, he lowered his head and took a big sip, not afraid of being hot, and then said, "Brother Nan, didn't I take you to gold a few days ago?
β...... Add some green onions, it tastes better. β
"Oh, oh, yes!" Huai Xu directly grabbed a handful of green onions from the bowl next to him and threw it into the bowl, stirring and stirring, "It's a pity that the meat is not very good, the mutton in this place is not as delicious as those places." β
"Which places?" asked Brother Nan, "Qingjiang Western Xia?"
"Yes, yes, last time Aunt Jiang asked a friend to buy Tan sheep and send it back, it tasted good. It's a pity that it's all eaten now. β
β......β
In the end, the three of them ate the amount of eight people, and looking at the boss's eyes, they already remembered them deeply.
After eating, Huaixu went back, and Zhou Li and Brother Nan went for a walk by the river. During this time, he kept turning his eyes to look around, trying to find someone hiding in the shadows to spy on them, but to no avail.
Maybe the old monster has really reformed itself.
Possible.
It was almost nine o'clock when I got home.
Zhou Li saw that Tuanzi seemed to be a little unhappy, and he walked over naturally: "Did Lord Tuanzi wake up?"
Dango ignored him.
He was a little puzzled, walked over, got closer, and asked with concern: "What's the matter? Is there something uncomfortable? It just so happened that at noon this day, the Danzi adults slept so deeply that he couldn't wake up, is he sick?"
"Really?"
"Really! Probably sick...... When I'm sick, I also sleep so deeply that I can't wake up. β
"You called Dango-sama Meow?"
"Oh, you say that, of course, I'd like to ask Dango-sama to hang out with us. Zhou Li thought for a while, "Ah I know, did it rain last month, and now I have a cold?"
"Dango-sama doesn't catch a cold. Dango said, but hesitated, "But Dango-sama is really hot when he sleeps." β
"What's the perm?" Zhou Li sat next to her, touched her forehead, and touched his own, indeed, the forehead with small fluff was more comfortable than the bare touch.
"It's likeγIt's like basking in the sun~~"
"Because you're basking in the sun!" Huai Xu couldn't stand it.
"Meow?"
"Do you remember how you fell asleep?" Zhou Li frowned, his expression was serious, and he ignored Huai Xu's words.
"Dango-sama was lying on his stomach, and he fell asleep for some reason. β
"That's ......"
Zhou Li thought about it for a while, and didn't want to make Tuanzi afraid, so he said: "Tuanzi may just be too tired, eat too much, and be basked in the sun, he will lazily want to sleep, this is normal." β
"That's it!"
Dango also remembered that this was the case, every time she was full and basking in the sun, she would become confused.
Then Zhou left to take a shower, and when he came back, he hugged the ball, but insisted on picking up the book and reading it again.
He's already read two-thirds of the way through the second one.
Engraving is a very important and indispensable aid to sculpting spells, but it is only an aid. The real kernel is still the process of giving these carvings mystical abilities.
In the same way, this is also a kind of use of spiritual power.
But unlike most spells, engraving requires tools, mediums, and carriers from start to finish.
Starting from the initial carving - usually the Celestial Master will not use an ordinary carving knife to carve, but will use a special carving knife with better spiritual power conduction to carve in order to facilitate the transmission of spiritual power. With Fan Tie, it may output dozens of units of spiritual power, but there is only one unit left on the carving, who can afford such a large loss of spiritual power?
Zhou Li can afford it.
He had thought about it before, he couldn't make a special carving knife for the Heavenly Master, and he couldn't even make an ordinary kitchen knife. So he had three ways to solve the problem of the carving knife.
Sort by merit and disadvantage β
1. Tell Sister Hongzhi a coquette, and soon you will be able to get a set of excellent carving tools that belong to him forever.
2. Borrowing from Mr. Jiang, his ancestors naturally left carving tools down, and they are also of the highest quality. Zhou Li felt that if he opened his mouth to him, he would definitely borrow it.
3. Make do with ordinary tools.
Because Hongyan has been very busy lately, Zhou Li chose the third one - he really didn't want to borrow it from Mr. Jiang.
If he wanted to borrow from Mr. Jiang, he had to open his mouth first, and he felt that this 'opening' alone was a very troublesome thing, and he had to struggle and delay for a long time before he could make up his mind, and before he spoke, he had to think about how to organize the language and simulate the conversation in his head......
What a struggle!
He skipped the third book two days ago and flipped through the fourth book directly, which recorded a relatively simple little spell.
He felt that he could gnaw it down in half a month.
It should be possible.
At eleven o'clock, he turned off the lights.
Time is still moving forward slowly and flatly.
Zhou Li often goes to Mr. Ma's house to practice carving, but not every day, usually Monday and Tuesday will not go, these two days have to have a full day of online classes, and it is a professional class, it is inconvenient to let Huaixu substitute teaching.
They are still their own carvings.
Mr. Ma carved high-end, Zhou Lidiao primary, in the process of exchange and discussion, but also guidance, teaching and learning.
A few days ago, Brother Nan went to play with Zhou Li, and she always made some strange things, which was very ugly. But one day Zhou Li said that she didn't go after she carved ugly, and only occasionally came to take a look, thinking that she was angry.
She really sent food to Zhou Li.
Late April.
This year's temperatures warmed up exceptionally late.
Zhou Li's carving technique has progressed rapidly, and his evaluation in the mouth of Old Man Ma has changed from 'very talented' to 'genius'.
One afternoon, Zhou Li came to Old Man Ma's house as usual, but saw him and Brother Nan sitting under the eaves outside the door, setting up a low table, spreading out plastic chessboard paper and playing chess, and there was another old man watching next to him.
Brother Nan stared at the chessboard while holding his mobile phone, looking a little proud, and his hair was very high.
Old Man Ma frowned and pondered, constantly inhaling.
Zhou Li walked over and glanced at his mobile phone: "Why did you remember to play chess with Grandpa Ma today?"
"I'm in a good mood today. β
"What's wrong?"
"I've got another poplar!"
"What nonsense...... Ant Forest?"
"Yes!"
"I think I've planted a Saxon tree. β
"Huh! the Suosuo tree is also embarrassed to take it out and say?" Brother Nan was very disdainful, "I at least started with arborvitae!"
"I can't compare to you. β
"Xiao Zhou, you go play first, I'll come after this game." Old Man Ma said.
"Good. β
"He's got two hours. Brother Nan said.
"Soon, soon, soon......"
"Come with me to crayfish fishing in two days!" Brother Nan saw that Old Man Ma took a step, she also took a step on her mobile phone, and took another step according to the computer's move, "At the end of April, there should be more crayfish." β
"Good. β
Zhou Li walked into the living room, took a carving knife and wood, and simply sat at the door, watching Brother Nan bully the old man while carving.
