66. The Black Prince vs. the Silly Bun
At the end of the summer of that year, Lu Rulan, who had just been promoted to the third grade of junior high school, followed her mother to a quiet seaside town.
Strange scenery, strange neighbors, and strange classmates. This qiē is nothing to Lu Rulan, who has lived in a fixed place since she was a child.
Maybe he knew that he didn't stay in this group for long, the teacher didn't pay too much attention to Lu Rulan, and the classmates didn't often communicate with him, calmly and indifferently, as if living in two parallel worlds.
Lu Rulan does not hate such neglect, on the contrary, she still enjoys some freedom without being constrained. In fact, there is only one time of day when it's harder than any other time for him, and that's lunch.
School cafeterias provide lunch to students who pay for meals, and students who don't want to pay for it can bring their own lunch boxes, but that would be considered an anomaly. At the beginning of the month, her mother handed Lu Rulan a whole month's meal expenses, but Lu Rulan planned to save all of them, and at the end of the month, the money earned from recycling waste products would be returned to her mother to subsidize the family.
Without lunch, sitting in a classroom with the aroma of food is undoubtedly an ordeal. Even if he can withstand the hunger in his belly, he can't stand the curious eyes of the classmates around him. Lu Rulan had a thin face, so she simply hid outside and walked around the school's playground.
One day, he walked to the fence on the east side of the playground and happened to hear the sound of talking in the small alley outside the wall. If you listen closely, it's actually a bunch of thugs bargaining.
Someone paid to hire seven or eight thugs in school uniforms to fight, and the offer was 100 yuan each, but they were refused.
Lu Rulan climbed up the fence to peek, and just saw the black, thin, and golden-haired gangster boss in the lead, who took out a wad of bills from his pocket and patted the man's cheek.
"If you ask someone to give you your life for a hundred, you should send someone to ask for food?"
The man was unwilling, and successively asked for two hundred yuan per person, and the group of gangsters was obviously a little tempted, but the leader was always indifferent.
Seeing that the business was going to be yellow, Lu Rulan couldn't hold it back, and suddenly shouted.
“…… I'll fight! ”
I have changed so many environments since I was a child, and I will always meet a few guys who are not easy to get along with. Lu Rulan is good at fighting and holding unevenly, and she is not lightly defeated, so her fist and foot kung fu can be regarded as okay among her peers.
The employer was not picky, and led him to the street to find three or four people, and then went to the vegetable market to seek revenge.
This time it wasn't a big deal, but the two gangs twisted together to feed each other their fists. After fighting for about ten minutes, everyone dispersed when the city management came. The "boss" who originally offered two hundred yuan only gave Lu Rulan forty yuan in the end. And the first thing Lu Rulan, who was bruised on her face, did after getting the money was to go to a nearby bun shop and buy three big steamed buns.
Coming out of the bun shop and seeing if the time was not early, Lu Rulan walked to the school with the steamed buns. As soon as I walked into the alley to the east of the playground, the group of thugs just now surrounded me again.
"Hey, steal business in front of our boss, boy, you are very bold!"
Lu Rulan's little minion who didn't have a haircut looked directly at the boss standing behind: "What do you want to do?" ”
The little minion shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, hand over the money." ”
"This is my own money, why should I give it to you?!"
The talk was no longer possible, and suddenly a few gangsters came up to fight. Lu Rulan was not afraid of them, but first carefully placed the three steamed buns on the side of the road, and then opened the posture.
Those little gangsters are still moral, and they all came up one by one to fight Lu Rulan. But seeing that Lu Rulan became more and more courageous, and fought three or four times in a row without falling behind, the others were a little unbreathable.
Just when someone was discussing the idea of rushing up, their boss finally spoke.
"I'll come."
Half an hour later, Lu Rulan and the gangster boss had a hearty fight, and both sides ceremoniously hung their colors. Although the boss still had a slight advantage in the end, he didn't fall into the ground, and when he saw Lu Rulan falling to the ground from exhaustion, he stopped.
Or the little thug just now came up and shouted, "Where's the money? Hand it over! ”
Willing to lose the gamble, Lu Rulan took out thirty-seven yuan change from his pocket and threw it on the ground.
"That's it? Didn't you say that it was okay to have two hundred for one person?! ”
"And he gave me forty." As she spoke, Lu Rulan also turned her head to look at her steamed buns.
The gangster boss was also stunned: "Forty, you do it too?" ”
Lu Rulan nodded: "I can eat steamed buns for a month." ”
After saying this, he got up from the ground, picked up the three steamed buns on the side of the road, and limped towards the school.
After school, the scars on Lu Rulan's body were exchanged for a scolding from his mother, but he didn't say the reason for the fight.
At noon the next day, it was time to eat again. Lu Rulan walked to the playground and prepared to nibble on the remaining steamed buns from yesterday. only to find that the gangster boss came over.
Black and thin, with a golden retriever and gold chain, and a single eyelid triangular eye, it is the third prince of the little white dragon.
"I thought the guy wanted to fight, but he just asked me why I had to eat three steamed buns for two days. I said I didn't have any money...... You know what? ”
"He took care of your lavish lunch for a month." Haichen looked at him with a grin.
"Hehe, you can guess that."
Perhaps because she was immersed in memories, Lu Rulan didn't notice that Haichen's gaze was a little intriguing.
After that, the black little white dragon never fought with Lu Rulan again, and never asked Lu Rulan to go out to fight with him. In fact, until now, Lu Rulan didn't know what his name was.
Although the two of them met almost every day at noon, they didn't say a few words, every time Lu Rulan took a meal and ate wildly, the little white dragon occasionally took a moment to be in a daze, and occasionally looked at Lu Rulan with the eyes of a small animal.
The lucky lunch lasted like this for more than a month, and suddenly, the little white dragon disappeared.
It's a trivial thing to be hungry at noon, but after being fed for so long, you have to repay the kindness of others. After waiting in place for two days, Lu Rulan finally started to look for someone, but it was a coincidence, and she saw more than a dozen people holding guys in their hands on the small wasteland not far from the school, surrounding the little white dragon.
"It was so hard that my mom saw me covered in blood, and her soul flew out. With the help of my aunt, Su He's mother, she sent me to the hospital in the provincial capital overnight. Fortunately, he is young and recovers quickly. ”
After recalling the past, Lu Rulan sighed, and turned her head to look at Haichen again: "Okay, you hurry up and answer my question!" ”
Haichen said: "I was next door to you when you were hospitalized, fellow patient." ”
"Fart, I'm next door to a window on one side, and an old man on the other, and the person will be gone in two days, are you his reincarnation?"
Lu Rulan is aggressive, and she has the momentum of not giving up without asking about the result.
Haichen lay on the bed and had no way to retreat, so he could only laugh dryly twice to express his surrender.
"Listening to Su He, your mother made you swear that you will never contact Xiaobailong again?"
"Well, she doesn't want me to get hurt anymore. Besides, I signed a contract to become an artist, and the company didn't want me to have negative news. ”
"Then what do you think yourself, do you still want to see the little white dragon again?"
“……”
Lu Rulan was silent, his lowered eyes slowly raised, and finally landed on Haichen's face.
"Your eyes are double eyelids, and they're big."
Haichen smiled: "When the wolf dog grows up, its ears will still stand up." ”
"Your skin isn't that dark either."
"It used to be heat-resistant coated carbon."
“…… You're not that skinny, but taller than him. ”
"Your bun face is gone, it's not very tall, and your temper hasn't changed. Crying while eating steamed buns, but fighting harder than anyone else. ”
Lu Rulan's eyes slowly widened, and the bright light of the stars could be seen from it.
"Little White Dragon?" He said softly.
"Little buns." Haichen replied, "You forgot about me. ”
"I didn't!" Lu Rulan defended, "You have changed so much, who can recognize you?!" And I don't even know what your name is, can I be blamed for that? ”
"I don't blame you, I blame your brother." Haichen sighed twice, "In the years since you left, I have sent several letters to your house, and I want to ask you how you came. ”
"Oops, these are all mistakes!" Lu Rulan hugged her head suddenly, "I suddenly don't know how to face you!" ”
"You don't want to see me?" Haichen sighed, "I wouldn't have said it if I had known." ”
"Of course I hope to see you again. You've invited me to so many meals, and I haven't even said thank you in a serious way. In fact...... I was worried about you a while. Why did those people beat you? ”
"To be honest, I don't know."
Haichen sighed: "Actually, I wasn't a real gangster at that time, I was studying in the high school of the school. The people who messed with me were all my father's shipyard kids, and they would fight with the cubs in the other factory to relieve their boredom. At that time, as soon as the news of my father's accident came back to China, several family members of seafarers who had been involved in the accident came to the door, and some of my relatives wanted to withdraw their capital and leave. Anyway, there was a lot of trouble, and I heard that I was being targeted, and I was trying to avoid the limelight, and then that happened...... It's got you involved. ”
"You didn't ask me for help, I wanted to help you." Lu Rulan muttered, "I think of you as a professional gangster, how could I have imagined that you could actually transform into a policeman." ”
"More surprised than I know you're a star? I told others that the little girl who sang and danced on TV was the little bun back then, but they didn't believe it. ”
"Who's a girl?!" Lu Rulan was so angry that she lightly punched Haichen on the shoulder, "Why did your mouth become so cheap." ”
"We've all changed, haven't we?" Haichen looked at Lu Rulan with smiling eyes: "Little bun!" ”
“…… Well? ”
"Come here and hug me."
"And say I'm a girl, can you stop being so slimy?"
Although she said disgusting words, Lu Rulan obediently leaned down and gently hugged Haichen's shoulder.
It's nice to have you here.
——————
Leaving the wounded Haichen in the special care of Lu Rulan, the four members of the older group began to plan the invasion and defense plan of Foguang Island. However, unlike the modern civilized society, which is abundant in materials, the defense of the last days must be based on primitive means, supplemented by technology.
In line with the purpose of walking on two legs, the four of them are still divided into two ways. Su He and Du Yunfei drove the construction truck to the construction site, ready to harvest the compost.
Removing the heavy rainproof cloth covering the car wash, a wave of heat hits your face. Du Yunfei didn't smell the stench he imagined, only a slight smell of fallen leaves.
After nearly two months of maturation and churning, the compost in this large pond has basically dissolved into black humus. Su He's eyes lit up, his face was full of harvest joy, and Du Yunfei always felt that if he didn't grab his arm, he would jump in and swim in the next second.
The two men worked together to get some of the compost into the car body, and then started the car to a nearby warehouse to get a few bags of fertilizer from the Botanical Garden's stockpile, and continued driving.
"Where to go." Du Yunfei asked.
"Go where you need to strengthen your defenses." Su He stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the dock.
The beach on the shore of the pier has loose soil, which is not suitable for the cultivation of most plants. Suhe chose the edge of the windbreak.
He first dug a large hole, placed the compost in it, covered it with a portion of the soil, and then took out a fuchsia berry the size of a fingernail from his pocket and pressed it into the soil.
"What seeds?" Du Yunfei asked.
"Big-leaved hedgerows. What exactly it looks like, you will know when you see it. ”
Su He replied, taking out the diluted brainstone corpse liquid and pouring it on the surface of the soil. After about half a minute, I saw a small green seedling pop up, and then a small tree that looked ordinary slowly began to grow upward.
"No, no, no."
Su He suddenly muttered, reached into the soil with his gloved hands, uprooted the small tree less than half a meter high and threw it aside, and then planted a second fruit.
This time, it was a thin, long strip of wood covered with spikes. When it grows to about half a human height, the plant stops growing and begins to pull out green leaves at the top.
Su He looked left and right around the plant, shook his head after a few snorts, and pulled out the plant three times and five by two.
After that, he tried five or six times in a row, but the plants he planted did not meet his wishes. In the blink of an eye, a whole bunch of them were unplugged. Later, even Du Yunfei couldn't stand it anymore, so he took a shovel and dug a pit on the side and began to do the same experiment.
"Is this what you want?"
About ten minutes later, Du Yunfei pointed out to Su He what he had just planted.
I saw a wrist-thick vine break through the ground and softly draw several circles in mid-air. However, in contrast to the soft curvature, the vine is covered with long and short spikes, more than ten centimeters long and three or four centimeters short. There are branches on top of the main spine, and they are intertwined in all directions to form a defensive net that makes people feel painful to look at.
“…… So-so. Su He was obviously a little unconvinced: "I can't see that you're a layman with good luck." ”
"No, forget it." Du Yunfei also put on gloves to pull out the plants.
"Oh no! Other! Su He hurriedly obstructed, "You can do it, you can do it, hurry up and make it fruitful!" ”
Du Yunfei added ordinary corpse liquid that did not contain brain stones to the soil. I saw that the thorns continued to grow to a height of more than one person, three or four meters long, and finally began to blossom and bear fruit.
Su He finished picking all the fruits, and asked Du Yunfei to continue adding corpse liquid. The thorns grew longer and longer on the ground, and when they reached a length of about 30 meters, they suddenly stopped growing.
"The supply of nutrients is not available." Su He kicked the soil at the roots, which had become noticeably white and sandy. "It doesn't matter, it can stay the same for a long time even if it dies. Just use it. ”
