Chapter 36: Tong Qingyun's Gift of Gratitude (Ask for Recommendation!)
How could he find out? After all, his previous thoughts were not on Tong Qingyun at all. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After eating and cleaning up, Situ Jin went outside and cut off a palm-length log, then took out the dagger that Slote gave him, and began to carve it carefully.
Time flies, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and before you know it, Situ Jin has been on this mountain for a year, and it has been a year and three months since he left the Yaluo Empire.
According to the algorithm of 14 years old as an adult on the mainland, Situ Jin is not only an adult, but he will be 15 years old in four months.
If it is at home, a child of a noble status like him will hold a coming-of-age ceremony when he becomes an adult, but now Situ Jin is in the mountains.
There is no sun and moon in the mountains, and the cold and heat do not know the year, how can Situ Jin care about this? Originally, his mental age already belonged to the category of adults, and he never regarded himself as a child, and he didn't care much about whether he was an adult in the eyes of outsiders.
However, although Situ Jin thinks that he has not changed, in fact there are still changes. That is, he is taller than before, his posture is a little taller than before, and the only trace of immaturity on his face before has disappeared, but there is a little more perseverance and handsomeness.
Of course, these are only external changes, and the internal changes are even greater. Although his figure still looks relatively stubble, this year, his body is not a little stronger than before.
In the past year, he has cultivated hard every day, and Tong Qingyun will get some meat of high-grade demonic beasts for him to eat every three or five days, which is out of reach for ordinary people may not be able to eat a piece of the food in his life, but for Situ Jin, it has become commonplace, he can eat it if he wants, and sometimes he throws away some because he can't eat it!
Maybe there are psychological effects, but Situ Jin does feel that his body is a lot stronger. Both attack and defense have been greatly improved compared to before.
Before leaving the Yarrow Empire, the eldest prince Robert, the current de facto ruler of the Yarrow Empire, had promised to give Situ Jin "Erland Island" as his territory, and also promised to give him 5,000 men and horses, so that he could take up his post on "Erland Island" when he became an adult.
And before he left, Situ Nan told him to let him have a good experience on the mainland, as for the matter of 5,000 men and horses, he would help Situ Jin arrange, and after he became an adult, he would send these people to Situ Jin's territory.
Although Situ Jin did not have a good relationship with his father, he still did not doubt that Situ Nan promised him. As long as Situ Nan said so, then he would definitely help Situ Jin arrange it.
Although Situ Jin is now an adult, he has no intention of returning to his territory immediately, and he has already had this idea when he came out of home.
At that time, he was already more than thirteen years old, and it was impossible for him to take office in the territory after hanging out for a few months, if that was the case, there was no need for him to come out, it was better to stay in the empire honestly, and wait until he reached adulthood to go to the "Öland Island" to take office.
I believe that Situ Nan will definitely think of this and help him make some arrangements in advance, so he is not worried about this problem.
Because when he came out of the house, he had already planned to stay outside for at least a few years before returning to his territory. So for more than a year, although he hasn't gone to the Continental Academy and just stayed on this mountain, he is not in a hurry.
In the first three months of the past six months, Situ Jin has already used a dagger to carve a human shape from wood, and this "human shape" refers to the general shape of having arms, legs, a head and a neck, and there is definitely no way to take care of the details.
In another two months, Situ Jin was finally able to carve a complete person. This "complete person" looks not just a general shape, but a sculpture of a figure with a nose and eyes. However, although such a figure carving can barely be seen, it is not fine enough, and many places are still unpolished.
It took another month for Situ Jin's carving skills to finally mature, and the figures he carved out became more and more vivid.
Until this day, after carving another character model, Situ Jin took the carved wooden model in his hand and looked at it, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. This is the best character model he has carved in the past six months.
He decided to start carving large figures with his sword again from tomorrow. Now he has a good feeling for carving, and his grasp of strength is becoming more and more handy.
Now Situ Jin already understands a little why Slote would let him practice carving. Engraving may seem simple, but it actually requires a high level of force control and wrist flexibility. And these two things are the foundation of the foundation for a swordsman.
What is a foundation? A foundation is one of the most fundamental factors that may seem simple and useless, but in fact can determine how far you can ultimately go in a certain field.
Not only did Situ Jin appreciate the benefits of carving, but he also became more and more interested in the carving itself, and these days, whenever he didn't carve for a day, he would feel itchy and unbearable.
He enjoyed the process of creating something out of nothing, a very ordinary piece of wood could quickly become a vivid figure carving in his hands, and every time he felt a faint sense of accomplishment in his heart. It's hard to articulate to others, but it's real.
Ready for dinner and brought it into the water hole, he sat opposite Tong Qingyun.
Tong Qingyun just ate a few bites casually and stopped eating, just when Situ thought that Tong Qingyun was about to get up, Tong Qingyun suddenly said: "From tomorrow, you don't have to prepare food for me anymore." ”
Situ Jin raised his head and looked at Tong Qingyun with a questioning expression, not knowing what she meant.
Tong Qingyun said lightly: "I'll leave here tomorrow." ”
"What?" Situ Jin was surprised: "Are you leaving?"
Tong Qingyun nodded: "The thing I was looking for has been found, and I naturally have no point in continuing to stay here." ”
"You ......" Situ Jin had a lot of questions in his heart that he wanted to ask, but he couldn't ask a word, although the two had stayed together for more than a year, but they had no relationship with each other, not even ordinary friends, and some words were not something he could ask. In other words, even if he asked, Tong Qingyun didn't need to tell him.
Just when Situ Jin didn't know what to say, Tong Qingyun's white and slender hand suddenly stretched out in front of Situ Jin, Situ Jin raised his head slightly, and found that there was a small pure white porcelain bottle in the palm of Tong Qingyun's hand.
"There's a Soul Rejuvenation Pill in here, you can take it!" Tong Qingyun said.
Situ Jin looked at the vial in Tong Qingyun's hand in a daze, and said, "Soul Rejuvenation Pill?"
Tong Qingyun stretched out his hand towards Situ Jin, and Situ Jin understood and took the small bottle from Tong Qingyun's palm.
At this time, I only listened to Tong Qingyun's explanation in a few words: "It is an elixir that can save people's lives at critical moments." This Soul Rejuvenation Pill should be regarded as a thank you for preparing food for me during this time!"
