Chapter 986: Bickering
The next time, including Cheng Hu, a group of people were all dumbfounded. According to some people's thoughts, it is incredible that Lin Xuanzhong can eat something that has been roasted to that extent, as if he had not eaten after being hungry for several days.
"It's not bad," after tasting the taste of the carbon foam mixed with the tender meat, Lin Xuanzhong felt that it was not bad.
"Okay, I'll bake another skewer and bring it to Brother Lin, and promise to keep Brother Lin full," Seeing Lin Xuanzhong make such an evaluation, the man smiled and turned around and left directly.
"Liu Laosan, if you want to bake it like this again, you can eat it yourself," As a result, as soon as the man turned around, Cheng Hu's voice followed, and it seemed that Cheng Hu thought that the man named Liu Laosan was making it bad.
On the other side, the man who heard Cheng Hu speak was stunned, as if some kind of mind had been debunked, and Lin Xuanzhong could see something as soon as he stopped. If his guess is right, Liu Laosan must have a lot to do with that Zhang Yulong. After seeing that it was Zhang Yulong playing tricks, Lin Xuanzhong was a little angry, but when he thought that even Chenghu had eaten it, he was instantly relieved.
"Brother Lin, Cheng took the liberty of asking, why did you appear here alone?" Because Lin Xuanzhong had always behaved politely, out of curiosity, Cheng Hu inquired about Lin Xuanzhong again.
"Here's the thing......" To explain why it is necessary to lie here, but Chenghu is a bright person, and Lin Xuanzhong doesn't want to make up too many lies, so he first says that he is a hunter who has been separated from his companions, and then briefly recounts the experience after meeting Sun Hui and others, and does not say a word about the things that happened earlier. Lin Xuanzhong's voice was not small, and he heard almost everything he wanted to hear.
"Brother Lin, are you saying that there are still some martial cultivators and a group of ordinary villagers in the north?" It may be because Lin Xuanzhong mentioned that he had encountered bandits, and Cheng Hu had no choice but to shift his attention to Sun Hui and the others when he couldn't ask Lin Xuanzhong's specific origin.
"En," mentioning Sun Hui and the others, Lin Xuanzhong was a little worried in his heart, and he still wanted to go back and remind him, but when he really thought about the life and death of those people, that kind of worry became weaker again.
"There are more and more fierce beasts nearby, and when they take the goods on the road, I am afraid that there will be more fierce beasts on this road, and those people are likely to encounter danger on the way," Glancing at the corpses of the two fierce beasts not far away, Cheng Hu unabashedly showed his inner worry, making it easy to see the chivalrous feelings that Cheng Hu himself had.
"It should be like this," After following Cheng Hu's gaze and seeing the corpses of the two fierce beasts, it was not difficult for Lin Xuanzhong to think that with the situation of Sun Hui and the others, even if they encountered a powerful fierce beast, it would be difficult to deal with it.
"Brother Cheng, when we get these two fierce beast corpses back, it will be enough for a period of time, don't think about going there to do something!" may be too aware of Cheng Hu's personality, Zhang Li is about to strangle some of the ideas that Cheng Hu may have had in his heart in the cradle. It's not easy for them to walk outside, and if they bother with other people's business, it will only make things worse.
"Zhang Li, what nonsense are you talking about? It's not easy for everyone to go out, can't you even inform others if they know that others are in danger?" Obviously, what Zhang Li didn't want to see still happened, and Cheng Hu's rhetorical question directly revealed his inner thoughts at the moment.
"Without further ado, I'll go over immediately, you guys will leave after eating, and I'll catch up with you," Cheng Hu said and got up directly, with a look of made up his mind. The act of turning chivalrous feelings into practical practices made Lin Xuanzhong respect.
"Big brother, dozens of miles is not close, besides, what if you encounter a bandit alone?" Zhang Li wanted to dispel Chenghu's decision to take risks, and glanced at Lin Xuanzhong intentionally or unintentionally as he spoke.
"Brother Lin can come from there, are you still afraid that something will happen to me?" Cheng Hu seemed to deliberately ignore the kind of distrust of Lin Xuanzhong that Zhang Li really wanted to express, and responded to Zhang Li from another level, in order to show his trust in Lin Xuanzhong.
"Okay, you're the boss, you have the final say," the next moment, Zhang Li turned his head angrily.
"Zhang Li, after I leave, I will leave the matter here to you to be responsible, remember not to neglect Brother Lin," understood Zhang Li's worries, but sometimes being afraid could not solve the problem, after explaining Zhang Li, Cheng Hu turned around and left directly. The mature aura shown by his words and deeds made Cheng Hu look like an experienced general, and Lin Xuanzhong's heart was touched when he saw it.
There is undoubtedly some risk in informing Sun Hui, Cheng Hu is very likely to encounter fierce beasts or bandits on the way, and in the end, he may be distrusted by Sun Hui and others, it is indeed not easy to do a good deed.
"You take this as a token," it was originally something that he was thinking about whether to do, but now it is up to Cheng Hu to do it, although he understands that Cheng Hu is acting righteously, Lin Xuanzhong is still a little grateful in his heart.
"Thank you Brother Lin for your help," as soon as he turned around, Shi Hu understood what Lin Xuanzhong meant at a glance, and he didn't shirk, and after taking Lin Xuanzhong's weapon, he said to Zhang Li: "Take a weapon and give it to Brother Lin to use first." ”
"Okay, be careful on the road," as the second-in-command of the team, after seeing that Chenghu insisted on going, Zhang Li no longer insisted.
"I'm leaving, be careful yourself, I'll try my best to rush back," Holding the barbecue and a kettle sent by Zhang Yulong in his hand, Cheng Hu simply left in front of everyone.
It's not early, and if Chenghu's trip goes well, he may come back sometime tonight.
Seeing Chenghu leave, Zhang Yulong was no longer as stubborn as before, and there was still a faint worry in his eyes, it seemed that Zhang Yulong was not completely ignorant.
"Brother Lin, come and eat with us, we'll leave when we're done," looking up at the sky, Zhang Li didn't have the slightest intention of waiting for Chenghu to come back.
"No, I'm full," he said, getting up and patting his clothes, and looked around, there were some small woods around, and the line of sight was not very wide, and it was indeed inappropriate for them to stay here.
When Lin Xuanzhong was looking around, Zhang Li called the original few people who had gone to weave the stretcher over, and then more than a dozen people gathered around a fire and ate big, gobbling up one by one, looking like they hadn't eaten for a long time. But then again, they will have to carry the corpses of two fierce beasts later, and they will indeed need to replenish a little more physical strength.
A quarter of an hour later, more than a dozen people had eaten and drunk enough, and under Zhang Li's command, the two fierce beast corpses were lifted onto the wooden frame they had weaved, and the group went directly to the road.
Some walked in front, some in the back, and only the middle four were responsible for pulling the goods, of course, they were pulling the carcasses of the beasts in turns. Except for Lin Xuanzhong and Zhang Yulong, who didn't need to contribute, the other twelve people, including Zhang Li, were exactly divided into three groups.
Both beasts were heavy, but the good thing was that the wooden frame they made was strong enough, but it was a little slow.
Before leaving Sun Hui's team, he wanted to go faster by himself, but now Lin Xuanzhong can't do it according to his original idea, Cheng Hu didn't come back for a moment, Lin Xuanzhong has to stay in this team for a while longer.
Because it was the return trip, those people behaved quite relaxed, chatting on the way to how much they could sell the goods for when they delivered them back, and what they were going to do when they got the money. Some said they wanted to feed their families, some said they wanted to take it to their homes, some said they wanted to eat a few good meals, and one by one they were very happy. But in Lin Xuanzhong's view, let what they say fall wildly, and in the end, it still highlights that it is not easy for them to make money. Of course, for now, they are just talking, because before they return to Cloud City, their thoughts can only be used as ideas.
"Hey, that one is called Lin Feng, what are you doing in Cloud City?" After Zhang Li and the others chatted happily, because they couldn't talk to Zhang Li, Zhang Yulong could only talk to Lin Xuanzhong, who had nothing to do like him, after enduring boredom for a long time.
"I didn't have anything to do when I went to Cloud City, I just passed by there," Zhang Yulong's tone was still not at all flattering, and Lin Xuanzhong replied patiently.
"You just said that you are not from Cloud City, so where are you from?" Lin Xuanzhong did not say his origin when he talked to Cheng Hu, and Zhang Yulong seemed to suddenly think of this and asked casually.
"Do you know the city that never sleeps?"
"The city that never sleeps, I've heard of it, you haven't been there, you don't want to say that you came from there, do you?
"I'm not bad on my feet. ”
"The key is that your strength is not good. ”
"I can still hit you two. ”
"I ...... My uncle will help me. ”
"Men should live on their own. ”
"I just can't fight you. ”
"Then why do you dare to trouble me?" Compared with Fang Qing and others of the same age, Zhang Yulong's temperament is too frivolous, according to Lin Xuanzhong's idea, he has to be sent to the army to endure some hardships, and after a period of training, there will definitely be great changes.
"I ......" I didn't expect Lin Xuanzhong to ask so directly, Zhang Yulong's face was stunned, and he looked at a loss.
"Yulong, if you have time, you should think more about the set of martial arts that your uncle taught you, walking the rivers and lakes does not rely on a mouth," a man walking on the side couldn't help but joke when he saw Zhang Yulong being asked by Lin Xuanzhong.
"Wang Lao Er, just your ability and face to talk about me, if I hadn't come up with the idea to lure those two fierce beasts together, maybe you would still be hungry now!"
"Cheng, I see that you kid has nothing you can say here except for me," Zhang Yulong's rebuttal made Wang Lao Er look embarrassed, and then as if he recognized some kind of fact, after sarcastically mocking Zhang Yulong, Wang Lao Er turned his head and did not mean to speak again.
