Chapter 143: Carpenter of the Forgotten City
"Miss, I said I wouldn't take money, but I didn't say it was free, I'm from the city."
He swept away his expression, changed into a hideous face, and glared at me fiercely.
"What do you mean!"
I pretended to ask calmly, after all, my own situation at the moment is definitely not normal, but a kind of forced, but since he is a forgotten city, maybe he has an obsession with something! After all, I knew a little bit about the people of the forgotten city in the mouth of the old man last night.
"I don't mean anything, if you can help me solve a problem, then you can make it to the other side."
He was quite cheerful, and when I asked him, he said what he thought.
"What's the problem?"
After all, I didn't have any bottom in my heart, so I opened my mouth to ask him, after all, I don't think I can do anything other than eat some these years.
"It was a long time ago, and I was a carpenter from the forgotten city to go to the other side of the lake, and the boatman on the lake carried me, just as I did with you to-day, but when I got to the other side, he suddenly said to me that he wanted to give me all his possessions."
He paused, and then he clung his head to the boat and wept, causing the hull to dangle over the still lake.
"Don't move, you keep talking, crying is if it can solve the problem, then what do you need the police to do."
I spoke up to him, and I always felt that if I didn't stop him, let him continue to mess around, and we would both have to give an account here.
"But I want to cry when I talk about it, I always think I'm too stupid."
He continued to cry at me as he spoke, so that I didn't know how to comfort him, how could he, a big man, cry like this, this is completely different from his hideous momentum just now, is it not normal for people in the city to lack roots and tendons, let me keep doubting in my heart.
"Alright, alright. Say it, maybe there will be a solution, right? After all, you are a well-known carpenter in the forgotten city, how can you cry over such a trivial matter! ”
I've always felt that this is a good way to persuade people from ancient times to the present, after all, although some people know that you are telling unsatisfactory lies. But still willing to believe, willing to be complacent in your words.
The carpenter in front of him is also a layman, and he didn't jump out of that circle at all, and I only praised him twice, and he really didn't cry.
And proudly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his calloused hands. He smiled at me and said, "This young lady, what you said is not wrong at all, I am a famous carpenter in the forgotten city, how can I be embarrassed by this little thing!" I'm going to get out of this boat. ”
Get rid of this boat? Listening to his words, I couldn't help but start to look at him, what he meant by this, and why did he say that he wanted to ask for this boat.
"Alright, alright, tell me what you're bothered about."
I don't have to speculate too much about him anymore. Directly opened his mouth and asked him.
"The boatman gave me the boat, and he jumped out of the boat and left."
"That's it?"
I was speechless and looked at the carpenter in front of me.
"yes, that's the way it is."
He answered stupidly, I was completely crazy because of his words, he didn't say the crux of the problem at all, and wouldn't it be a good thing to give him a free boat? Why is he so bothered?
"But you haven't said anything about your troubles, wouldn't it be nice for him to give you a free boat."
I continued my suspicions, and he wasn't going to continue rowing for a while, unless I helped him out.
"The ship is huge. I can't move. ”
He went back on his feet, giving an answer that made me want to scold the idiot.
"Then throw it away!"
I suggested that he was a carpenter, after all, and that he wanted a boat for something.
"But he didn't just give me the boat. There is also this lingering lake. ”
He continued.
“”
I looked at him speechlessly, indicating that I didn't understand him.
"I'm from Lethe City, and I have a strong obsession with my belongings, so I can't lose the boat or the lake, so"
As he spoke, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I see."
I sat down. I need to be quiet at this moment, I even feel that the people who forget the city are not obsessed, but because they are too stupid, how can the boatman be the owner of this lake, he just made up such a lie because he didn't want to continue to be a boatman, and it is even more unbelievable in front of me that this carpenter, he actually stayed here and started rowing his boat for the ridiculous lie of the boatman, which is really incomprehensible.
"Is there anything you can do to help me with this, I still have a carpenter shop in the city!"
He said that his carpenter shop was a little sad, which made me see that a carpenter has endless care for his carpenter's shop.
"You can build a wooden bridge over this lake, and make a sign that the bridge and the lake are your belongings, so that you can go back to your forgotten city, and then no one will be able to steal the bridge and the lake under the bridge, they will still be yours."
I casually thought of such a way that was not a solution, after all, what I was thinking about at the moment was how to get rid of the carpenter in front of me, and as for how he judged whether my answer was feasible, it was his business, and it had nothing to do with me, and I just gave him a way to solve the problem with his thinking.
"This young lady, you are such a genius."
He was overjoyed and thanked me.
"If you like it."
I replied to him a little speechless.
"That's a good idea, I can wreck the boat and make a bridge fixed on both sides, so that no one can steal my boat, maybe some planks, and I can make the bridge higher, so that those who cross the lake can prevent them from stealing my lake, your answer is fantastic."
He danced excitedly in the boat, and I hurriedly stopped him, hoping that he would not continue like this, or we would both be drowned in the dead lake before he could implement his plan.
"Okay, I'll send you there."
He propped up his oars and crossed me to the other side of the lake, which made me sigh a little, it was a pity that he was not a boatman, but as long as he could send me across the lake, everything else was his business, and I had more important things to do before me, and I must not waste too much time here.
