Chapter 14: Change
More than 40 corpses of jackals were sent to the adventurer's guild overnight, because they were monsters approaching level 20, they brought Lin Xiu a total of 26 golden dragons, half of which belonged to Lin Xiu, and the other half was divided equally by the villagers who participated in the operation, and each villager received 42 silver wolves.
42 silver wolves were not a lot in Lin Xiu's opinion, but in the eyes of these villagers, it was enough for their family's living expenses for a year.
After receiving the silver wolf, the villagers went home happily.
Lin Xiu saw the grizzled Barton brothers and sisters, and asked knowingly, "What's wrong with you, why are you so embarrassed?"
"Village Chief! Oh no, there are a group of strange people in the house!" Barton finally understood why Lin Xiu couldn't get up when he squatted on the ground that day, he also experienced Lin Xiu's previous treatment today, but the time he squatted in the corner was two hours, but compared to the things he saw, it was nothing.
"Strange people?" Lin Xiu looked at Chris, Li Yan beside him, and Mei Weis, who he was holding in one hand, there were three of them, Lin Xiu felt that no matter what happened in Hammond, he could deal with it calmly.
Patting Barton's arm, Lin Xiu said, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”
"But......" Before Barton finished speaking, Lin Xiu walked away with the three of them.
Hibel gripped Barton's palm tightly, she was afraid to go back, but if they didn't, they would have nowhere to go. Accustomed to the luxury of the village chief's house, accustomed to the teasing of the tip of the tongue by the food, and accustomed to the soft touch of the big bed, she no longer wanted to go back to the cold and dark cottage she had before.
"The village chief is back, and he will be fine. Barton tightened his little hand tightly, "Brother will protect you!
At the door of his house, the original two-story stone house has now grown to three floors, the edges and corners of the craggy walls have been smoothed out, painted with a layer of white paint, and the courtyard is surrounded by a low wall of one meter and two high.
Led by a white-haired old man in a tuxedo, two maids bowed down to Lin Xiu and saluted: "Welcome home!"
"That's them! The village chiefs, they are ghosts, and I have seen their bodies turn from shadows to human beings. Barton pointed at the white-haired old man in horror.
Lin Xiu touched his chin, an intriguing smile appeared on his face, he didn't expect that the strange person in Barton's mouth was actually the housekeeper and maid sent by the system, he didn't know what had changed inside the house, and his heart began to look forward to it.
Seeing Lin Xiu walking towards the house as if he was enchanted, and Li Yan and the others also ignored the white-haired old man as if they were nothing, Barton was very panicked: "Village Elder, you can't go in!"
Lin Xiu turned his head and smiled slightly: "Barton, you are too nervous, they are not strange people, they are sent by the gods to help me clean up the house." ”
"Am I right? Lin Xiu looked at the white-haired old man with a smile.
The white-haired old man stood up straight: "Just as the adults said." ”
"How is that possible!" Barton was shocked and his mouth widened, although he had heard Lin Xiu talk about the dream of the gods before, but he had always maintained a doubtful attitude in his heart, until it was mentioned again today, he had also seen the creation methods of the gods with his own eyes, and Lin Xiu's identity as the messenger of the gods couldn't help but believe it.
"How is it impossible? It's cold outside, bring Hibel in. ”
After Lin Xiu finished speaking, one of the two maids held a doorknob and opened the red palm wood door.
Stepping on the soft red carpet and feeling the heat released by the raging flames in the fireplace, Lin Xiu's mind was extremely relaxed.
The pale yellow sofa of leather, the bottles of precious wine on the closet, and even the table top is covered with a layer of white cloth.
If it weren't for the crossing, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to enjoy it so much in his life.
"My lord, the total area of the newly built house has doubled, all kinds of furniture have been upgraded, new combat conference rooms and entertainment rooms have been added, all on the first floor, each room uses the principle of magic siphon, you can take water freely, and eight new bedrooms have been added, two on the first floor, three on the second floor, and two on the third floor. The white hair looked at Lin Xiu and introduced the changes in the house in detail.
"What's your name?" Lin Xiu asked.
"My name is Bert, and I am the housekeeper of this house. ”
Bert, the butler, pointed to the two maids and said, "They are Arya and Winona. ”
The two maids held their hands, hung down in front of them, bowed their heads and saluted Lin Xiu, they looked cute, but other than that, Lin Xiu only remembered that the red-haired girl was called Arya, and the blue-haired girl was called Winona.
"Call me when dinner is ready, and I'll go and get some rest. After Lin Xiu finished speaking, he went upstairs.
This time, he hadn't had a chance to check the changes in the system after the village chief's hut, and now that he was back at home, he couldn't wait.
"Yes sir, because of the house upgrade, your room has been moved to the third floor, facing which one in the village. Old Bert's voice came from behind Lin Xiu.
Awesome!
Lin Xiu went straight to the third floor.
Opening the door, a fragrant smell came to his face, through the light of the high oil lamp on the table, Lin Xiu saw the purple flowers inserted in the vase at the head of the bed, the white quilt was washed to a layer of imperfection, the original wooden bed was added with an unknown mattress, the bathroom was covered with blue and white tiles, and the bookcase on the other side of the study was also filled with books.
Lin Xiu wanted to close the door, but a small hand suddenly inserted into the middle of the crack in the door.
Lin Xiu had no choice but to stop closing the door.
"Brother, I want to share a room with you, I don't want to be separated from my brother again. Mavis heard from behind the door.
What is the situation? Lin Xiu opened the door, revealing Mei Weisi with a serious face outside the door.
Looking back at the big bed in the room, Lin Xiu sighed: "Whatever you want." ”
Entering the room, Mei Weisi immediately jumped on the bed, wrapped her body in the futon, and only showed a small head to spy on Lin Xiu, who was sitting on the sofa and pointing in the air: "Brother, what are you doing?"
Lin Xiu had just opened the system interface, and when he heard Mei Weisi's inquiry, he glanced up: "Can't you take off your clothes and go to bed again?"
"Then brother, you have to help me take a bath before I can change my clothes. ”
Didn't it just make you take off your clothes and go to bed again? Why does it have anything to do with bathing again?
"Looking for Arya or Winona, you're a girl, how can I wash it for you?"
Mei Weisi threw herself down on the bed, kept shaking Lin Xiu's arm, and pouted in protest: "I don't care, my brother used to help me take a bath." ”
"I don't wash. ”
Mavis's lips trembled, and bean-sized tears slid down her cheeks: "Brother, don't you help Mavis take a bath, don't you like Mavis?
Where is this?
Lin Xiu was a little irritated by Mei Weisi's cry, but he couldn't abandon it.
"Why do you keep saying I'm your brother? Have we met before?" Lin Xiu said to Mei Weisi in the gentler voice possible.
The lights went out, and Mei Weisi cried even louder, and the air around her suddenly became extremely cold: "Brother, I have been looking for you for a hundred years, a whole hundred years, and I have not forgotten you until I died and became an undead." How can you, how can you forget our agreement!"
"After my mother died, you promised to take care of me, where have you been all these years?"
"Now you won't recognize me? Why? Answer me, why!"
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and Lin Xiu saw two lines of blood and tears on Mei Weisi's face.
Seeing Mei Weisi's changes, Lin Xiu suddenly even broke out in a cold sweat
No, we can't let Mayvis talk about it anymore, and if Mayvis goes crazy if she continues, I'm afraid no one in the whole of Hammond will be able to subdue her.
Lin Xiu hugged Mei Weisi into his arms: "Mei Weisi, listen to me, I am your brother, I will help you take a bath." ”
The lights are lit up again and the room is illuminated by a warm light.
Tick-tock, there was a sound of rain outside the house, and Mavis slowly raised her head with blood and tears on her face.
Looking at that familiar face, she sobbed softly, and smiled and hugged Lin Xiu's waist with her two small hands: "Brother!"
