Chapter 342: Killing a Thousand Enemies, Losing a Thousand Yourself (4000 Words)
As the saying goes, good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. The consequence of playing tricks on Tom is that he will end up being pit by Tom.
Thinking about it, Zhang Da is also proficient in shaving and iron in the six styles, mastering the entry-level armed color domineering, and has magic power, dark energy, and the true qi of a person who is invulnerable.
But he never imagined that he would be scalded by a mere pot of hot water.
The reason was that Tom had eaten too many limes and drank all the tea, and when he wanted to pour the water himself, he didn't hold the kettle steady.
Bang Dang! Crash! Zizi β
"Ah!!h
"Ah!!h
The screams of Zhang Da and Tom resounded over Berumel's house at about the same frequency and decibel at the same time, and the whole house shook three times with their screams.
A man and a cat in the room jumped around with one foot at the same time, knocking down tables, chairs and benches, and breaking cups, plates and bowls.
Belrumel and Ah Jian looked at the two of them with stunned expressions, obviously the characters who could catch Aaron's oversized saw knife with their bare hands, but they would be so out of shape because of a little hot water...... Does that mean that if you want to defeat the Aaron Pirates, you only need to boil a few more pots of boiling water?
Zhang Da and Tom also jumped for a while, sitting back to back on the ground, lifting the hot foot in the same position, and kept blowing with their mouths.
Tom's feet were red and swollen, and Zhang Daye's feet were also red and swollen with his shoes, and he was sure that Tom was not trying to take revenge on him, and Tom would never choose this way of killing a thousand enemies and losing a thousand to himself.
Berumel was stunned for a moment and reacted: "I'll go get the medicine!" β
"No, I have." Zhang Da also stopped her and took out the medicine box by himself.
Tom touched it from behind him and pulled out an identical one, and the two of them applied scalding medicine and bandages to themselves. It was just an ordinary burn, but after treatment, it looked like a fracture and a plaster cast.
Zhang Da also found a cane to hold, and said with some embarrassment: "That, we will pay for the broken things." β
"That's ......" Berumel wanted to say no, but he didn't say it, this time the loss was slightly larger, and if he didn't compensate, he might not be able to afford to eat next month.
β¦β¦
The orange orchards of the Berumel family are large, but each one is carefully tended, neither tall nor short, with no more or no branches.
Some have already been picked, and only some green fruits remain on the trees, while others still have yellow-orange-orange fruits hanging from them.
At this time, four little girls and a little white cat were running under the tree, and the four of them had different hair colors, pink, dark blue, lavender, orange, and ...... Golden?
As we all know, there are five of the Four Heavenly Kings, so it makes sense for the four little Loli to mix a dull hair king in the team, such as picking oranges and eating-related activities, she unconsciously followed after hearing it. Because she is only 154 tall, she is not very conspicuous when she moves with little girls.
"I chose this one, and the oranges of this one are ripe!"
"Then I'll choose this, it looks bigger!"
Nokigao and Nami quickly chose their targets, and each of them carried a small basket on their backs, hugging the trunk of the tree and climbing up. The two of them were brought up by the bad girl Berummel, who was naughty since she was a child, and it was not a problem to go down to the river to fish and go to the trees to dig birds, and she had nothing to do with the word 'lady', and she was very skilled in climbing trees.
"Be careful!" Wendy put her hands to her lips and looked up to ask, as an 'older sister', she was trying to care for her mischievous sister.
"Let's go too!" Perona pulls Wendy to choose the right orange tree, but things are a little different from what she imagined.
For Wendy, a melee mage specializing in the Demon Tail world, climbing a tree is a piece of cake, the shorter ones can go up as long as they jump on the spot, and the taller ones can borrow a little bit on the trunk at most.
But Perona's sports waste wood is not good, usually Zhang Da also calls her to exercise She is tired, only do the most basic part, and tell her to work hard to develop her ability to make herself float, she is also troublesome. It's bad luck now.,Follow the example of Nokigao and Nami and climb more than a meter high before falling down and squatting on the buttocks.γ
"It hurts!" Perona rubbed the sore place of the fall, looked at Xia Lulu with big eyes and sobbing, and almost wrote the words 'begging to fly' on her face.
Xia Lulu sighed like a little adult, spread her wings and put Perona on the branch: "I said you, listen to him occasionally, isn't it good to exercise a little?" β
Perona happily reached out and picked an orange: "I'll listen to it next time!" β
Xia Lulu was helpless, she also said last time that she would accompany Wendy to exercise, but she only lasted a few days and gave up, I don't know how long the next time will be.
The four hard-working little fruit farmers quickly filled the baskets, and Xia Lulu carried them down as a transporter to replace the baskets.
A little further away from them, Artoria sat on a tree with a basket on her back, picking two and eating one, and by the time she filled the basket, a layer of orange peel had been laid under the treeβthe only thing limiting Artoria's efficiency was the speed at which she peeled it.
By the time Zhang Daye and Tom followed Berumel to the orange orchard on crutches, the girls had already harvested a lot, and the four little loli were comparing who picked more oranges.
Wendy saw the appearance of Zhang Daya and Tom, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Daya, Tom, what's wrong with you?" β
Zhang Da also glanced at Tom resentfully and said, "There was a little accident and I was burned." β
"I'll treat you right away!" Wendy trots two steps forward, but suddenly tripped over a tree root.
"Yikes!" Wendy exclaimed, and the whole person threw herself out, her hands stretched forward, her calves cocked, and her body fit perfectly on the ground.
"Wendy!" Zhang Da also threw away all the crutches in his hand, but he couldn't catch up with her falling speed.
Xia Lulu patted her head: "Here we go again." β
Before Perona and Nami could come around, Wendy had already gotten up on her own, slapping the dirt on her body in shame, although she was used to falling often, she felt so embarrassed to fall flat in front of the two little sisters she had just met.
"Is this kid alright?" Berumel crouched down to check the red mark on Wendy's forehead, she had a crush on the little girl who had helped her heal.
"It's fine." Wendy shook her head and got up to help Zhang Daya and Tom heal their injuries.
However, the blue-green light on Wendy's hands lit up for a while, and Zhang Daya and Tom's feet didn't look swollen at all.
"Huh? What's going on? Wendy paused confusedly, "Why doesn't the healing magic work?" β
Zhang Daye's face showed a 'bad' expression, he pulled Tom's cheek, and said in despair: "It's over, this time it's probably not an ordinary injury, I don't know how long it will be swollen......"
"How so? I'll try the magic of detoxification again. So Wendy tried all the healing magic she knew, but it didn't work.
"I'm sorry, Brother Tatsuya......" Wendy's eyes filled with tears of grievance, and she wanted to cry, "It's because my cultivation is not enough, and I can't cure you." β
Zhang Da also touched her head and comforted: "Don't blame you, the problem is Tom, if he feels that this injury is not good, it is useless for the gods to come." β
Tom spread his hand and said that he was innocent, and that he had to be recuperated for a while to get better if he was burned by boiling water, isn't it common sense?
"Is that so?" Wendy thought about Tom's usual appearance, and it seemed that there were indeed many irregularities.
Berumel couldn't understand Jang Daye's train of thought, thinking that this was his excuse to coax the children, and suddenly felt that it would be more reassuring for Nami to follow them in the future.
Perona, who was watching the excitement in the back, blinked with big eyes, and the black-hearted boss's foot was injured, which means that he was unable to move, so could he take this opportunity to tease him a little?
"Okay, let's deal with it on crutches first, let's go, let me see the fruits of your labor." Zhang Da also took the crutches that Wendy picked up, and moved to the oranges they picked step by step.
The little girls showed off which ones they picked and how much they had.
"Perona actually picked so much, which is commendable."
"Humph!" Perona crossed her waist and snorted softly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, thinking that for your sake, it would be better to tease you less once.
Zhang Da also said to Belumel: "I picked too much, why don't I buy it at the market price?" β
"No way!" Nami hurriedly said, "I said I was going to give it to you as a gift in return!" β
Zhang Da also slandered, don't give money, this must be a fake Nami!
Belrumel said: "It's okay, it's just a little orange, and this is the only one in our family that can be used as a gift, please don't accept it politely!" β
Step, step, step, a slightly heavy footstep sounded, and Artoria walked cautiously from a short distance with a basket on her back, and everyone was stunned.
Artoria was dressed in a white dress and a blue dress, black stockings and boots as usual, and walked towards everyone while peeling the orange in her hand, looking as good as ever, but that was not the point.
The point is that you're just a normal backpack behind you, right? How the hell do you stack oranges more than five meters high? Have you been taken away by Tom?
Artoria naturally beckoned: "Tatsuya, are you here too?" I found oranges on a few trees that were particularly sweet, and I picked some more for you to eat. β
"Thank you...... Thank? Zhang Da also felt that he should be moved at this time, after all, a foodie is willing to share delicious food with you, which is the highest courtesy, but he has a little ominous premonition.
Sure enough, he looked sideways behind Artoria, and the forest was covered with a conspicuous layer of orange peels, and when he looked up, there were thirty or forty orange trees that no longer had a trace of orange.
Berummel had obviously noticed this, and the smile on his face stiffened a little, 'Did I want to invite them to dinner at home?' β
Nokigao and Nami, unaware of the risk of eating dirt in their own house, chattered around Artoria asking how she could put the oranges so high and not fall down.
Artoria handed Tom the peeled oranges, but Tom shook his head and refused, he didn't want to eat them for a while.
Zhang Da also patted his forehead: "Sure enough, I'll still pay." β
In order for his future navigator to grow up healthily and not be malnourished, Zhang Da also bought the oranges that were plagued by Artoria at the highest price in the market. And also introduced two high-quality customers to Belumel, one is the Keya family, her family has a lot of agricultural products, and the other is the sea restaurant Bharati, where oranges are great ingredients.
β¦β¦
For various reasons, Berumel didn't dare to say that they were invited to dinner, so everyone went back to eat on the Amber.
After more than half a year of study, although Rui Mengmeng's cooking skills are not as good as Tom's, but they are also better than many ordinary chefs, at least she has enough physical strength and will not be tired from cooking.
Brooke was a rare silence during the meal, and his favorite skeletal joke was not in the mood to tell.
Zhang Da also thought about it and asked, "What's wrong?" Could it be because no one wants to show you the fat times and get disheartened? β
"No, Mr. Tatsuya." Brooke asked seriously, "I remember following our route, the next stop was Rogue Town, and then we went to Upside Down Mountain, right?" β
"yes." Zhang Da also nodded, probably knowing why he looked like this.
"That means I'll be able to see Rab soon." Brooke raised his head slightly, his empty eyes staring at the ceiling, imagining what Rab would look like now, "Rab must have grown a lot, right?" If ......"
Brooke's voice trembled: "If he doesn't recognize me......"
Everyone else also looked at him with concern, the reunion after forty years of absence, both sides have changed a lot, and if they are treated as strangers by each other, it will be very painful.
"Didn't you keep the explosive head well, and although your face has changed, your voice hasn't changed, and you have kept the sound of the shell, so you can still play a song for him on the spot." Zhang Da also comforted Brooke, feeling that the strength was not enough, and he moved out the most convincing statement in the Japanese comics:
"You have to have faith in the bond between you and Rab, whether it is forty or fifty years, no matter how much has changed between you, no one will be able to break your bond."
After saying this, Zhang Da also felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and when he looked up, he found that almost everyone was looking at him with a touched face, and Wendy was so emotional, he even held his hands in front of his chest, and his eyes were rolling with tears.
Ah......h Is it so lethal?
"Whoa, whoa...... Mr. Taya is right, Rab will recognize me! Brooke regained his senses, and when he had finished eating a bit of food, Brooke said apologetically, "Everyone, it's rude." β
Everyone looked at him suspiciously, only to see Brooke first burp, then raised his butt slightly, followed by a 'poof~', and a peculiar smell spread.
Everyone covered their noses and looked at him with disgust, Ye Yan, who was sitting next to him, had a green face, and slammed a fist on Brooke's head, saying angrily; "You really still owe a beating!"

The entrance to the Great Passage, Twin Heads.
A whale as big as a mountain let out a cry: "Woo hoo hoo ang ~~~"
The old man on the recliner on the shore shook the newspaper in his hand, glanced at the whale, and said with a smile: "I seem to be very happy today, Rab." β
The whale's huge eyes moved, and it responded to him with the same pleasant cry as just now: "Woo hoo ang ~~~"
