Chapter 31 Choice
"This is Lao Wu, our best master who drives an excavator here." Lao Huang introduced Hu Lai to the middle-aged man he brought.
The middle-aged man known as Lao Wu looked at Hu Lai, and then said, "Six hundred yuan, and then transport it to the foot of the mountain in front, isn't it?" ”
Hearing Lao Wu say this, Hu Lai couldn't help but secretly scold this old yellow for being black enough, just passing on the words, and deducting 400 yuan.
At this time, Lao Huang was also a strong look at Hu Lai, for fear that Hu Lai would demolish him.
This kind of thing, Hu Lai naturally won't do it, he just wants to fulfill his promise as soon as possible.
"Right ahead." Hu pointed to the front and said, "You go drive the excavator, just follow later." ”
After saying that, Hu Lai walked towards the ant nest.
After so many days, the ant's nest here has long been calm.
Hu Lai walked to the mouth of the nest and found some worker ants busy.
"Can I communicate with them?" Hu came to ask Ling.
"Yes, but they don't remember you anymore, so even if they can communicate, it's useless." The Spirit replied.
"Hey," Hu Lai sighed and said, "It seems that only some of the worker ants will be lost, but I hope they are all in the nest." ”
Not long after, Lao Wu came over with an excavator.
When he saw that Hu Lai was doing something to the factory where he was, he couldn't help but hesitate.
"Don't worry, just take it." Hu said.
Old Wu drove over suspiciously.
Hu Lai drew a circle around the nest with a branch, and then said, "Just this circle, dig it down with a shovel, the deeper the better." ”
After saying that, Hu Lai dodged away.
Lao Wu no longer hesitated after hearing this, and the manipulator shovel dug down.
Suddenly, a thick clod of earth was dug up.
"Just put it at the foot of the hill in front of you." Hu Lai pointed to the mountain in front of him and said.
Lao Wu also simply drove directly towards the mountain not far away.
Not long after, Lao Wu returned, and the clods in the bucket were also emptied.
"It's done as you asked." Lao Wu said.
Hu Lai didn't break his promise, he directly took out six hundred yuan and handed it to Lao Wu, and at the same time took out four hundred yuan and said, "This is for Lao Huang, you will hand it over to him later." ”
After speaking, Hu Lai was about to turn around and leave.
"Can you tell me why you did that?" As soon as Hu Lai turned around, Lao Wu couldn't help but ask.
What Hu Lai was waiting for was Lao Wu's words.
Otherwise, he and Lao Huang would definitely go to the foot of the mountain to find out, in which case the nest would probably be destroyed.
"It's nothing, it's just that I had a dream last night, and the fairy in the dream gave me a dream, saying that I was too angry during this time and my life was in danger."
"If you want to resolve it, you need to add some soil to the mountain god in front of you." Hu Lai said the answer he had already thought of.
Then he paused and said, "And the fairy also said, as long as the pile of soil I added is at the foot of the mountain, it is a part of the mountain god, and whoever is paying attention to that piece of land will be haunted by bad luck." ”
This passage was deliberately said to Lao Wu, in order to make Lao Wu resist the land in his heart.
"I see." Lao Wu smiled awkwardly, then got into the car without looking back and drove towards the construction site.
Watching Lao Wu leave, Hu looked at the foot of the mountain in the distance, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
"I hope you will have a smoother life in the future, and I hope you will forgive me for losing some of your companions, but for the sake of your life longer, your sacrifice is worth it."
After a moment of nostalgia, Hu Lai left the factory and walked towards his residence.
He hadn't gone far when the mobile phone in Hu Lai's pocket rang.
When I took it out, it was my sister Momo calling.
"Momo, what's the matter?" Hu Lai answered the phone and said with a smile.
"Brother, I'm already in the car now, I'll be in the city early tomorrow morning, you remember to pick me up." Momo's familiar and nice voice came from inside the earpiece.
"So fast." Hu Lai asked.
"I'm not welcome, I'm afraid I'll disturb you, aren't you?" As soon as Hu Lai said this, Momo's tone immediately became aggrieved.
"Of course not, I've been looking forward to Momo coming." Hu Lai hurriedly said.
Although he knew that Momo was deliberately teasing her like this.
"Hee-hee" came Momo's cheerful laughter on the other end of the phone.
"Well, okay, I know my brother loves me the most." Momo said with a smile.
"See you tomorrow, then." Hu Lai was also infected by Momo and said happily.
"Okay, see you soon." Momo replied.
Then Hu Lai told a few more words, most of them were careful on the road, and Hu Lai hung up the phone.
Back at the residence, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon
According to the method explained by the spirit, Hu Lai swallowed another leaf of Xingyue Grass.
Then there was a feeling of dryness on my body again, but it was much more relaxed than last time.
"Progress is fast, and your physique is now one-fifth stronger than before." Ling observed Hu Lai's body and said.
Hearing Ling say this, Hu Lai didn't feel happy.
Because Momo will arrive tomorrow, and three and a half days after the last time of his next doppelganger, Hu Lai doesn't know how to explain to Momo at that time.
"When I become a dog or a lizard, what will happen to my sister Momo?" Hu came to ask Ling.
Ling pondered for a moment and said, "It's a bit difficult, but it's not unavoidable. ”
"You can choose a certain period of time for your doppelganger, such as at night."
Hu Lai couldn't help but be happy after hearing this,
"You mean I can choose the time slot of the doppelganger?"
"Because you have completed a clone, your future clones can be arranged like this." The Spirit returned to the Word.
"Why didn't you say it earlier, I've been worried for so long." Hu Lai said to the spirit.
"There are drawbacks to this, otherwise I would have sued you a long time ago." Spirit said.
"What's the downside?" Hu Lai asked.
"The doppelganger just uses your mental power, and if something goes wrong at that time, I can find a way to remedy it."
"But if you arrange a time-split clone, then it will be your own body that will carry out the clone."
"In the event of an accident, you're going to die as if you were an animal." The Spirit replied.
Hearing Ling's explanation, Hu Lai couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
The time period doppelganger, that is, the subject has also become an animal, and once it dies, it is a real death.
However, Hu Lai had no other choice, and if he wanted not to arouse Momo's suspicion, he could only choose the second method.
"Let's use the time slot, I arrange the clone at night, so that it won't attract the attention of others." Hu said.
When Ling saw that Hu Lai had made up his mind, he said no more.
"By the way, you can buy some yellow paper later, and I'll teach you some simple ways to make talismans." Ling said suddenly.
"Talismans? Is it similar to the Soul Gathering Talisman? Hu Lai asked happily.
"Naturally, it's far behind, but it's still okay for you to defend yourself." The Spirit replied.
