Chapter 34: Uncle Clone

Lin Yu felt that he had been pitted, and he was miserable by the two unscrupulous old glasses of Saven and Habu. In his script, the place you reach after passing through the portal must be one of the major cities of the Alliance, Darnassus, Ironforge, Stormwind, or something. But what he never dreamed of was that the place where he landed was actually a pumpkin field, and beside him stood an ugly-looking scarecrow with poor workmanship. The bleak autumn wind carried gusts of sand and soil and blew on Lin Yu's dusty face. The grass at his feet had long since withered and yellowed, and a few yellowed dead leaves drifted in front of him from time to time. Lin Yu looked at the endless pumpkins of different sizes in a daze, feeling that he had been abandoned by the whole world.

Lin Yu was still lamenting his fate, but his stomach made a gurgling sound. After the battle with Wren, Lin Yu hadn't eaten. Seeing that there was not even a wild boar around, Lin Yu, who was helpless and hungry, could only take out his dagger and cut the nearest pumpkin, and the yellow juice flowed out from the inside of the pumpkin. Lin Yu picked up a piece of cut pumpkin, ate two bites and found that it tasted good. After coming to Azeroth, Lin Yu's appetite became unusually good, and the basketball-sized pumpkin was quickly wiped out by him, and he still felt that he was not full, and was about to stretch out his sinful claws to the second pumpkin, when an angry voice reached Lin Yu's ears, and when he looked at the sound, Lin Yu's tears of excitement were about to flow out.

Mankind! A middle-aged man with a pickaxe and a big black beard was running towards him. This was the first time Lin Yu had seen someone of his own race since he came to Azeroth for nearly a month, and he was so excited that he happily cut open a pumpkin and took a few bites to celebrate his return to the human world.

"Where did the thief come from! Put down the pumpkin in your hand! The bearded middle-aged man angrily took the pickaxe and roared at Lin Yu.

Eating pumpkin by himself seemed to anger this middle-aged man, Lin Yu saw that his beard was about to fly, and yelled at his blushing neck, put down the pumpkin with some embarrassment, and said to the middle-aged man.

"Hello, my name is Lin Yu. I was very hungry just now and ate a pumpkin from you, I don't eat it for nothing, I give money. ”

As he spoke, Lin Yu took out all his belongings from the animal skin package, one gold coin, three silver coins and a dozen copper coins, and handed them to the middle-aged man.

Seeing that Lin Yu had a good attitude, he also offered to pay the bill. The middle-aged man's anger slowly subsided, he glanced at the money in Lin Yu's hand lightly, put the pickaxe on the ground and said.

"You don't have to pay for it, and it's not a big deal to eat a few pumpkins. My name is Clounn and I'm the owner of Fablon Pumpkin Farm. ”

As soon as he heard that he didn't need to give money, Lin Yu, who had never known how to write the word polite, quickly put the belongings in his hand into the package. Clun says he is the owner of a pumpkin farm in Fablon. Fablon Pumpkin Farm? Lin Yu raised his head slightly, and after thinking for a while, he knew where he was.

"Uncle Cloun, is this the Wild West?"

"yes." Clone replied, and then asked Lin Yu.

"Kid, are you lost?"

Lin Yu immediately turned into a homeless lost teenager and sobbed at Crown.

"Woo, yes. I've been lost for four or five days, woo. I can't get enough to eat every day. ”

I don't know if it's Lin Yu's outstanding acting skills or Crawn's cuteness and stupidity, he actually really believed Lin Yu's words, patted him on the shoulder and sighed.

"Alas, if you have a child, you can go home with me first."

Lin Yu wiped his tears, nodded his head a few times, and choked up.

"Thank you, Uncle Cloun."

Crawn waved his hand, grabbed his pickaxe and put it on his shoulder, humming an unknown tune and heading home.

Beyond the vast pumpkin patch is Crowne's home, a wooden house that doesn't look too big. The roof was covered with yellow hay, and next to the house was a small wooden house, and there were three wine barrels in front of the house, and it was not known if there was any wine in them. When Clouen returned home, he took Lin Yu to the wooden house, threw the pickaxe he was carrying to the ground, and shouted at the house.

"Seresti, come out and see. I brought back a guest! ”

As soon as the words fell, a middle-aged woman wearing an apron and a little chubby walked out of the wooden house next to the house, probably in a hurry, and carrying a kitchen knife in her hand. Seeing that Crawn really brought back a stranger, the middle-aged woman was a little embarrassed and put the kitchen knife behind her and said to Lin Yu.

"Hello, strange young man."

"Hello." Lin Yu smiled.

Crawn patted Lin Yu's back and said.

"Let's talk about it when we come inside."

With that, Crawn walked into the house with his arm around Seresti's shoulders, and Lin Yu looked around and saw that there was nothing unusual, so he followed into the house together.

Clounn's house looks a little shabby on the outside, but on the inside it looks decent. There is a fireplace in the innermost wall of the house, and a deer's head hangs above the fireplace, and a boar's head hangs from the lower left of the deer's head. On the floor is a large brown bearskin, and to the right of the bearskin is a double bed. Lin Yu took a cursory look at the decoration and structure of the house, and said to Crawn.

"Uncle, were you a hunter before?"

Lin Yu's words seemed to have asked Crawn's heart, and he proudly pointed to the brown bear skin on the ground and the deer head and wild boar head hanging on the wall and laughed

"Of course! Look, these are my trophies! ”

"That's right, and you're just an ordinary farmer now." The middle-aged woman smiled and said to Crown.

Crawn laughed twice and pointed at her to introduce Lin Yu.

"Guest, this is my wife, Seresti."

Lin Yu bowed slightly.

"Hello, Aunt Seresti."

"Hello, young man. You and Clouen talk first, and I'll cook for you. Seresti smiled and walked out of the house with a kitchen knife.

Seeing Celesti leaving, Crawn whispered to Lin Yu.

"Young man, I used to be the best hunter within a few miles. But Seresti thought it was too dangerous to hunt the beasts, so she forced me to go back to the farm and take care of the damn pumpkins. It's just that she doesn't know, and I still go out hunting occasionally. With my pickaxe"

"Ha, Uncle Cloun. You're a farmer like no ordinary. Lin Yu praised Crawn at the right time.

Crawn nodded in satisfaction.

"Of course!"

Then he asked suspiciously.

"By the way, how can you get lost in the Western Wilderness at such a young age, you must know that there is a war here!"

"War? What kind of battles to fight? Lin Yu asked, in his impression, there should be no war in the western wilderness.

"Well, it's not the Riverpaw Gnoll. Recently, I don't know why, those ruthless and greedy gnolls suddenly gathered together and launched an attack on the western wilderness. Morson and Sardin's farms were destroyed by the gnolls. I escaped here because I was far away from the gnolls' colony. I heard that those ugly monsters have been restless again lately, and they seem to be very interested in Sentinel Ridge, and now this world. ”

Crawn sighed and explained to Lin Yu.

"Riverpaw Gnoll?" Lin Yu muttered a few words in a low voice, he had some impressions of this gnoll clan, mainly because this gnoll clan had a big man, and Hogg was one of the riverclaw gnolls. One of the mini-bosses in Stormwind Prison.

Crawn didn't hear what Lin Yu was muttering, and continued to say to Lin Yu. "Kid, you need to be careful in the Wild West. I've heard my cousin Kraut say that Sentinel Ridge might come out to recruit troops recently, so don't let them recruit you. Fighting those monsters is either dead or wounded. “

"Don't worry, uncle, I'll be careful. Thank you. Lin Yu said to Clouen with some emotion in his heart, he and Clouen have never known each other in their lives, and Clouen not only took him in but also kindly reminded himself that this is a kind person.

"Crowne! Youngster! It's time to eat! Seresti's hearty voice reached Lin Yu and Krahn's room through the wall. Crawn clapped his hands and said to Lin Yu confidently.

"Kid, I'm not bragging, Seresti's craftsmanship is definitely the best I know."

Lin Yu smiled at Crown.

"Then I'll have to taste it!"

Under Crane's laughter, Lin Yu followed him to another wooden house.

The chalet was used by Clone for eating and entertaining guests, with a square wooden table on the left and a wooden bed on the right, already covered with pillows and bedding. There are three dishes and one soup on the wooden table. The dishes are pumpkin pie, roasted pumpkin, and stir-fried meat with pumpkin. Not to mention the soup, pumpkin soup, with a few tender green spinach floating on the soup noodles. This is a standard authentic pumpkin feast. In Lin Yu's cognition, food that can be eaten and not poisoned or sick is good food. Therefore, he was very satisfied with a table of pumpkin feast. Crawn couldn't do it, seeing that it was all pumpkins, Crawn said to Seresti with a bitter face.

"My dear wife, pumpkin again? There's a guest today. ”

Serestie rubbed her hand against her apron, just a few slices of meat from the pumpkin stir-fry and said to Crown.

"Look, Crown, isn't that meat?"

"It's meat." Crawn sniffled, sat down on the stool tragically, and picked up a piece of pumpkin pie for Lin Yu.

"Son, try my wife's handiwork."

Lin Yu thanked Crawn and took a bite of the pumpkin pie, it tasted really good. The long-lost human food made Lin Yu have a great appetite, and he ate a piece of pumpkin pie for a while, and he was happy to eat a mouthful of boiled pumpkin. It didn't take long for the pumpkin dishes on the table to be cleaned by Lin Yu. After eating, he wiped his mouth and found that Clone and Celesti were looking at him with a smile on their faces, and said embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, auntie, I'm so hungry."

"Haha. It's okay, kid, you're still young, it's okay to eat more when you're growing up. Clone laughed. Seresti also smiled at Lin Yudao.

"You are a guest and deserve the best hospitality."

"Our best treat is pumpkins?" Clone asked with a smile as he put his arm around Seresti's shoulders.

"Who made you the pumpkin master?"

Looking at Clone and Seresti, Lin Yu felt a burst of silence. This feeling was something Lin Yu had never felt since he came to Azeroth, and he felt that he had to do something for these two people who loved each other. Gave Clun a wink. Crawn patted Seresti's hand and followed Lin Yu out of the room.

"Uncle, where are the beasts around here?" As soon as he got out of the house, Lin Yu asked Crown.

"Beasts? Why do you ask this? Could it be that you are going hunting? Crawn asked with a smile.

"Not really, I want to know where there are many beasts, and I might as well avoid them when I leave in the future."

"Oh, that's right." Clone suddenly realized and pointed to the northeast to Lin Yudao.

"There are a lot of wild boars over there, just avoid them. There weren't many beasts left in the vicinity, and they were all hunted down by the gnolls. ”

Lin Yu nodded slightly, and after returning to the house with a smile with Crown, he said to Celesti and Crown.

"Uncle, aunt. I went out for a walk and came back soon. ”

After speaking, Lin Yu nodded slightly to the two, walked out of the house, looked back at Crawn and Seresti who were talking in the room, and said in a low voice.

"Something has to be done."
