Chapter 25: Making a Tree (Asking for Collection)
On the way back, Zhuo Cheng specifically asked, "Your father's viscera is distorted and tumored?" ”
Zhang Fan thought of yesterday's situation, his nose was red again, but he forcibly held back his tears: "He didn't say it, I never know." ”
Zhuo Cheng nodded, and asked again: "Do you take visceral inhibitory drugs?" ”
Zhang Fan looked at Zhuo Cheng, his face was surprised, Zhuo Cheng couldn't explain the ethereal personal suspicions, so he could only say: "Big nose, I found the first one to tell you." ”
Thinking that Zhuo Cheng had saved himself several times, Zhang Fan led the way: "Just go and see at home." ”
Entering yesterday's yard, Zhuo Cheng did not enter the house and waited patiently at the door.
After a while, Zhang Fan came out with two metal bottles: "There are visceral inhibitory drugs." ”
Zhuo Cheng took a closer look, and there was nothing wrong with the medicine.
After taking more and more suppressive drugs, he gradually discovered that the Extraordinary Twister had an extraordinary intuition about effective suppressive drugs.
It is easy to tell whether a drug is true or false, right or wrong.
Zhuo Cheng felt that he might have thought too much.
Everyone has secrets, even himself, and the twisted tumor corresponds to an extraordinary twisting ability, and Zhang Fu may want to hide a hole card.
But out of caution, he still said: "I'll take a bottle of medicine first, and I'll return it to you later." ”
Back on the training ground, Zhang Fan worked harder than before.
Zhuo Cheng didn't think too much about it for the time being, and focused on practicing the mechanical repeater.
After eating at noon, Zhuo Cheng went to the blacksmith shop, and the new hammer was ready.
The rectangular octagonal hammer head is cast in one piece with a metal hammer handle, and the grip is specially reserved behind the hammer handle, wrapped in sturdy leather to prevent hand slipping.
Zhuo Cheng held it in his hand, and the weight was more convenient than the old hammer he had exchanged from the Singularity Camp.
Lao Hei smiled and smiled with a mouthful of white teeth: "How do you feel?" ”
Zhuo Cheng waved a few times: "It's good." ”
For him, being able to smash stones, break bones, and smash skulls is a good hammer!
Lao Hei said again: "Cannon, what do you need in the future, just come to me!" ”
Listening too much recently, Zhuo Chengdu is almost numb: "Thank you." ”
After taking something to get paid, he asked, "Uncle Hei, what do you need?" ”
The townspeople traded, mostly bartering.
Singularity gold coins can't be circulated here.
As for the hard currency source crystal, it is used by large organizations for bulk trading.
Lao Hei shook his head: "The town will give it to me, and the mayor will not allow me to go out and fight the robbers, so I can only support you like this." ”
Zhuo Cheng smiled: "Okay, I'm welcome." ”
In Sweetwater Town, the old black father and son who can strike iron are high-end technical talents, and it is strange that the mayor is willing to let them go out and work hard.
The hammer was put away, Zhuo Cheng left the blacksmith shop, and walked on the gravel road, and the sweet smell of boiled sweet potatoes could be smelled everywhere.
Almost every yard you pass by is dried sweet potatoes.
There were people in some courtyards, and many of them took the initiative to greet Zhuo Cheng: "Cannon, okay." ”
Most of them have dark complexions, thin bodies, and can live into their forties, and the deep wrinkles on their faces are denser than those in their sixties in the 2020s.
Facing the loess with his back to the sky, it may be very hard, but he is the happiest person in life that Zhuo Cheng has seen since he came to this world.
Passing by the well, many people are queuing up to fetch water.
Although Sweetwater is not particularly short of water, every well is guarded.
Along the way, there was an endless stream of people calling for cannons, and after listening to it a lot, Zhuo Cheng was also numb, and he didn't feel embarrassed anymore.
It's better than calling a teething stick.
When I came to the square, I happened to meet Aunt Guo coming out of the cafeteria.
"Cannon, don't go, don't go!" Aunt Guo stepped on the gravel and came to Zhuo Cheng in a hurry, her wrinkled face was carved with a smile like an apple that had been put all winter: "What I told you last time, I was looking for my daughter-in-law, have you considered it?" ”
Zhuo Cheng was busy shirking: "I haven't thought about it yet." ”
Aunt Guo said earnestly: "See people first, then say, you find a girl in the town as a daughter-in-law, and you will really integrate." The girl next door to me, with a big waist and a wide hip, is a good worker, you will have to divide the land sooner or later, and when you are together, you will be on duty in the militia training and duty, and you don't need to worry about the farm work in the field. ”
Zhuo Cheng was finally embarrassed, but he knew that Aunt Guo was kind, scratched his bald head and said, "I just came, take it slowly." At the critical moment, the dead Taoist friend did not die and said: "Aunt Guo, you see, Lin Sheng, Tusheng, Luohan, Zhang Fan, they are not looking for a daughter-in-law, there must always be a first to come in everything, and when they find it, it is not too late to say that I am not late." ”
Aunt Guo shook her head: "Those few of them, all of them were blinded by Erin of the caravan, and their brains were gone, so they didn't want to think that the women from Three Rivers City would live with them?" ”
"I'm going to be late!" Zhuo Cheng pointed to the big clock on the tower and hurriedly left: "I'm going to the wall on duty, don't say it, don't say it." ”
Aunt Guo looked at the bald head and whispered: "Listen to Lin Sheng, he can poke a hole in the ground, I don't know if the eldest niece has this blessing?" ”
There was still time before the changing of the guard, Zhuo Cheng left the town, did not rush to the side of the fence, found a clump of common weeds on the side of the road, and continued to experiment with plant sensing ability.
He can exercise his strength by smashing stones and transporting stones, and plant sensing requires time to explore every day, and there are wild grasses and other plants in the town, so it is convenient to explore and practice.
Sweetwater Town is actually not too big if you count the fields, Zhuo Cheng is near the entrance of the town, and the plant induction can cover the whole town where there are the same kind of plants.
As for the twist - the Honest Mushroom, it hasn't been used again in this time because of the seeds.
And it is used in the town, and if one is not careful, the consequences are very serious.
Zhuo Cheng put his hand on the grass, activated the internal vision method to induce seeds, and his senses extended in all directions, feeling the mayor of the town, Zhang Fan, Lin Sheng and others every day, but there was no feedback.
Probably all in the house.
Suddenly, a familiar breath came back and quickly approached.
Zhuo Cheng slightly distinguished, the breath belonged to Erin, and when the two of them rode the blood energy motorcycle together, they had a lot of physical contact.
Before Erin could leave the town, Zhuo Cheng stood up and walked unhurriedly towards the gate of the wall.
It didn't take long for the sound of leather boots stepping on gravel to sound, and Erin came from behind and greeted, "Hello, Cannon." ”
Zhuo Cheng looked at her, in addition to people, he also saw the sun, and nodded: "Hello." ”
He had already passed the stage of Zhang Fan and Lin Sheng, and after saying hello, he stopped talking and walked forward on his own.
Erin said as she walked, "You are very brave, and the effect of the twisted object is beyond imagination. ”
Zhuo Cheng said: "It's still good to have blood on a motorcycle, it comes and goes like the wind, and it is convenient to move." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but wonder: "How can I become a mechanic?" ”
He then reacted: "It's inconvenient when I didn't ask." I'm just curious, it's so convenient to have a motorcycle to come and go. ”
Erin laughed, "It's hard to do, mechanics are much less skilled than blood shooters at the singularity." ”
The sun shone from her, and Zhuo Cheng's face turned towards the sun as if it didn't belong to him.
Halfway through, Zhuo Cheng noticed it and forcibly twisted it back, because the twist was too fast, and the cervical spine clicked.
Erin thought that this man was like the young people in the town, peeking at her and afraid that she would find out.
Seeing Zhuo Cheng forcibly turn her head to look at the other side, she raised her left hand and gently rubbed the right side near her chest.
Zhuo Cheng held back the desire to face the sun: "I have seen two blood shooters and two mechanics, and I thought the number was about the same. ”
"Blood shooter, just need blood to twist." Erin tapped her forehead: "The mechanic has to twist his brain in addition to the twisting of blood. ”
Speaking of the technical secrecy of the singularity, she asked instead, "I heard that you used to be a scavenger?" ”
Zhuo Cheng said: "I was rescued by the mayor and Zhang Fan, so I followed them to Sweetwater Town. He looked left and right at the townspeople ploughing the fields and planting seeds: "I used to struggle in the ruins, but I wanted to have enough food and enough water to drink one day. ”
Erin continued: "Your goal has been achieved. ”
Zhuo Cheng really wants to live better in this world, but the threat of distorting tumor deterioration is always a shadow that cannot be dispelled.
Especially witnessed Zhang Fu's distorted tumor deteriorate and died so miserably.
Erin asked again, "Didn't think about doing anything more?" ”
"I just want to be better, more comfortable, if I can cure the twisted tumor, it will be better." Zhuo Cheng asked her, "What about you?" ”
"Me?" These words touched Erin's mind, and she looked into the distance, looked over the fence, saw the yellow and green of the hills, and said with a smile: "Sometimes, I think it's good to be a tree." ”
"You've got a special idea." Zhuo Chengxin said, I have a seed here, and I worry every day that it will sprout and grow and make myself a tree.
Erin came back to her senses: "Women love fantasy. ”
Zhuo Cheng nodded, stopped talking, and kept moving forward.
Erin was going out to see how much ash was left on the outskirts of the hills.
Today, the natives and militia are outside to protect the gathering team.
The two approached the gate of the wall, and Zhuo Cheng remembered something and asked, "I take the liberty of asking, has the singularity found the Hammer of Creation?" ”
Erin was slightly stunned.
Zhuo Cheng explained: "I have read the internal textbook of your singularity. ”
Erin didn't answer directly: "It's not just you who want to cure the twisted tumor, all the high-level leaders of the singularity want to think that until now, no one has succeeded." ”
"Thank you." Zhuo Cheng expressed his gratitude, came to the vicinity of the gate, said a few words to Lin Sheng, climbed the wooden frame behind the wall, and officially carried out the guard task for the first time.
Looking into the distance from the wall, scavengers haunt the woods, scattered by militiamen armed with mechanical crossbows, and have to try their luck elsewhere.
A large bird flew through the sky and crossed the town of Sweetwater, landing on the top of a rocky cliff behind the town.
Too far away, Zhuo Cheng glanced at it, couldn't see it clearly, turned around, and continued to guard ahead.
To the east, the sound of a trumpet sounded, and with the assistance of the militia, the town's craftsmen began to repair the less solid parts of the wall.
This tall wall is a barrier to foreign enemies.
Standing on the wooden frame, the sun fell on the bare head, Zhuo Cheng had to turn his head again, this time he woke up quickly, and forcibly held back.
After staying for half an afternoon, Zhuo Cheng found that this might be a good way to exercise mental willpower.
That desire to look at the sun is like a smoker who is addicted to smoking.
…………
To the west, on the rutted road, a tall horse headed toward the town.
Zhuo Cheng shouted: "Someone is approaching, be alert!" ”
The militiamen on the wooden frame raised their mechanical crossbows one after another.
Several militiamen, who were responsible for operating the mechanical bed crossbows, were also in their respective positions.
Gradually, the brown horses approached, and a tall, lanky man sat in the saddle.
He wore a felt hat pressed low on his head, covering half of his face, and wore a black mid-leather jacket with shiny brass rivets on the sleeves, and riding boots of the same color on his feet.
When he got closer, the man reined in his horse and lifted the brim of his hat up, revealing the brass sunglasses perched on the bridge of his nose.
Zhuo Cheng saw that the other party took the initiative to stop and asked loudly, "Who are you?" What to do in Sweetwater? ”
The corners of this man's mouth hooked, and he said, "The military will be half human, visit Mayor Duqi!" ”
