Chapter 16: The King of the Barrels
The Chen family in Qingyang City is well-known and well-known to passers-by within a radius of 100 miles. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Even in remote mountainous areas such as the Xiling Mountain area, it is like thunder.
Almost everyone knows that Miss Chen is a super ugly monster.
It's so ugly that no one dares to marry!
"Brother Chen, why do you bother to practice yourself like this!" Xiaohu patted Lin Chen's shoulder and said in a fake way.
"Seriously, I admire you! Go to the door of the Chen family, and you can still boast so calmly that your daughter-in-law is beautiful! Just Brother Chongchen, your cheeky skin is enough for me to admire!" Da Niu said in a weird manner, completely ridiculing Lin Chen.
"Go, go, go!" Lin Chen said bitterly, and he couldn't expose the fact that Qingqing was a peerless beauty, so he could only be teased by these two friends, "Lao Tzu, I will enjoy happiness in the future, it's the uncle of the Chen family! Don't be envious!"
"I'm not envious!" Xiaohu pouted disdainfully, "If I face an ugly tigress all day long, even if the delicacies of the mountains and seas are placed in front of me, I can't eat it!"
"That's right! I've heard my father say that the tigress of the Chen family is a crazy woman, and she may whip you with a leather whip every day in the future!" Da Niu said and imitated the sound of a leather whip, "Bang!
In the dilapidated hut, there was a burst of laughter.
The big cow and the little tiger were so energetic that they "damaged" Lin Chen, but Lin Chen was not angry.
All three are about the same age, all eighteen years old. When you are young, you can climb and roll on Xiling Mountain, and you can wear the same pair of pants if you have deep feelings.
............
......
"Gollum!"
Lin Chen's stomach rang.
He touched his slightly deflated belly, and then asked for help from the big cow and the little tiger with his eyes.
The two buddies understood.
Da Niu immediately said: "Brother Chen, you wait! I'll go to the house and bring my father's hot wild boar!"
Xiaohu also replied: "We also have a lot of wild goods at home, I'll bring some over!"
Lin Chen nodded with satisfaction, and said in his heart that these two boys are really good brothers, and when they come to the door in the future, they have to find a few daughters-in-law for them.
In Chen's mansion, there are a lot of maids and maids. Although they are not as good as Qingqing, they all have good faces and are very good at serving people. If there is a chance in the future, he will also bring these two brothers to the mansion to see if they can match.
Lin Chen shook off his clothes, stepped out of the old door, and came to the backyard.
Rise at dawn and sweep the court.
This is the ancestral precept that many mountain people like him have always followed. It's just that the situation of Lin Chen's family is very special.
There is almost no need to clean.
Because there is no furniture worth cleaning, not even a broom!
It can be seen how hard the life of this pair of turtle father and son has been in the past ten years.
In the small courtyard, fragrant flowers are splendid, and the fog is hazy.
The dawn of the sky has not yet completely lifted the light veil of night, so the courtyard is still a little dark.
But Lin Chen saw a large wooden barrel in the middle of the backyard at a glance.
"Daddy, Daddy!" Lin Chen couldn't help but think of his dead ghost father, "Let me soak in this bucket every day when I get up, and a soak is an hour!
Lin Chen's excellent wateriness is largely due to this wooden barrel.
For as long as Lin Chen can remember, he would be thrown into the barrel by his father every day before he got up and didn't open his eyes.
The barrel was full of brown potions, exuding a rich medicinal fragrance.
It's been an hour!
Soaking like this every day, of course his water is terrible.
He asked, "Daddy, what's the use of soaking this potion every day?"
"It's useless! I see that you study too hard, so I'll give you a soak bath to relieve your boredom!" But every time I get it, it's such an irresponsible answer.
Lin Chen recalled the old things, laughed at himself leisurely, and said to himself: "Daddy is gone, I finally don't have to soak it in the future!
He hated this barrel!
Staying in the barrel every day, soaking alone for an hour, he now feels like crazy when he thinks about it!
So, without saying a word, he picked up the axe pinned to his waist with obvious notches, and chiseled directly at the wall of the barrel.
"Phew!"
The blade of the axe and the mouth of the wall come into close contact.
At that moment, Lin Chenzhen's palms were numb!
But there was a gap in the axe, and not even a white mark appeared on the wall of the barrel.
After Lin Chen shook it, he couldn't believe it.
"Is this barrel made of iron? No, even the axe has made a big gap? You haven't reacted at all to this barrel?" Lin Chen slapped himself, thinking that he hadn't woken up and was dreaming!
"I really don't believe it!" Lin Chen's blow was unsuccessful, and he immediately went down with another axe.
"Phew!"
Another crisp sound.
On the blade of the axe, there is another gap.
But the wall still didn't react.
"Playing with me, right? Lao Tzu is angry, and the consequences are very serious!" Lin Chen seemed to be getting more and more frustrated, and said angrily, "If I don't split you today, what face do I have to be known as the number one strong man in Xiling Mountain!"
He lifted his axe again and slashed it down.
............
About half an hour later.
Lin Chen was sweating profusely, leaning against the wooden barrel, panting.
He turned his head sideways, wiped his sweat, knocked on the barrel and said: "Kneel for the uncle! I obey you! You wooden barrel, you are really the overlord of the barrel world, the king of the barrel world, I obey!"
The barrel, of course, did not answer.
The axe on the side of Lin Chen's buttocks, whose blades were completely flattened, had fully demonstrated the ability of the barrel.
Lin Chen didn't know how many axes he had chopped, the palms of his hands were red, the axes were all broken, and the barrel was not damaged at all.
"That's right, this wooden barrel can be called the king of wooden barrels, it must be very precious, right? I can give this to Qingqing as a birthday gift tomorrow night!" Lin Chen's brain became active, and he suddenly had such a good idea!
"No, no, no!" Lin Chen immediately vetoed it himself, "Move a bathtub over and send it, you will definitely be laughed off! Throughout the ages, I have never heard of someone giving someone a bathtub on my birthday, I can't be stupid!"
"Dad, what do you say I should do!" Lin Chen sighed, with an indescribable sadness in his heart, "Mother-in-law is not easy to handle!
The mountain breeze in the early morning is cool.
The morning light is slightly dewy, gentle and fresh.
Lin Chen sat in the field in the backyard, enjoying the beauty brought by the nature of heaven and earth.
"Huh, that's?"
When Lin Chen looked around, there was a glimmer of afterglow in the corner of his eye, and there was a little fluorescence on the corner of the courtyard.
The light was faint and flickering.
"Is this, fireflies?" Lin Chen grew up in the mountains since he was a child, and after a little thought, he guessed what it was.
"That's right! Fireflies!" Lin Chen jumped up!
