Chapter 85: The Lin Family's Help
The Lin family?
Chen Ye's mind moved slightly.
By the way, the Lin family is particular about courtesy, and once had a prominent family background.
Like this kind of big family, although the middle way is in decline, it still has a foundation.
If you can make friends with them, the exchange of silver coins is of course something that can be helped.
Last time, the food sent by Chen Ye had a friendship with Lin Shu, who is now in charge of the head of the family, although it was not deep, but at least it was a good impression.
If you bring some gifts, you might be able to exchange them for silver coins at the standard price, and you can even ask if there are any storage items.
"Young man, it's not too early, let's get over quickly."
The moonlight was getting darker and darker, and the figure of the old woman selling chestnuts was erratic, her back gradually disappeared at the end of the alley, and the sound soon disappeared.
Chen Ye noticed that when the grandmother who sold chestnuts left, the blue lines connected to her body were slowly disappearing......
It seems that the connection with Xining Alley is getting weaker and weaker, and I don't know when the next time we meet.
He realized that there was probably something going to happen recently, sweeping through the surrounding area with a sudden eruption.
Therefore, the situation is urgent, and we must seize every minute and every second, make more preparations, and take precautions.
He left through the North Gate and arrived at Lao Cai.
That's when it happened.
On the old street, there are shadow corridors of vendors, dragging huge burdens behind them, and they have left the Yongan market.
The narrow road was suddenly covered by a black and oppressive figure, as if there were few places to stay.
Looking at them with the pupil of luck, Chen Ye suddenly found that their heads were surrounded by blood, but the brightness was different. Some are more obvious, accompanied by inky surrounding; Some of them are dull and thick like clods of earth, blocking the source of evil energy......
They walked in a hurry, ignoring Chen Ye, although the density was quite high, but compared to the time of the pedestrian street, the danger was not so great.
Occasionally, a few strange faces turned his head to look at Chen Ye, but quickly turned his gaze.
These faces are either green and fanged, as terrifying as monsters, or they are shriveled and bloodless, like the faces of dead people.
It's just that Chen Ye is now staring at these faces, and there is no wave in his heart.
After all, his current face seems to be more terrifying than these!
It seems that they should be afraid of themselves.
He found a suitable gap, kept up with the flow of the large army, quickened his pace, walked in the opposite direction to Yongan Market, successfully found the second fork in the road, and squeezed in.
Suddenly, the crowded crowd behind him was thrown behind, and the air seemed to be freshened.
Following the road he had walked last time, Chen Ye quickly found a half-closed bronze gate, and the sound of "bells and bells" came from inside, which was very noisy, and he seemed to be busy with something.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Soon.
A few children came out of the gate and poked their brains.
When a head was stretched out, Chen Ye found that the other party had an extra delicate face, with hair fluttering like seaweed, soft and neutral facial features, and it was difficult to distinguish between male and female.
The group of faceless children grew a new face.
There are some similarities with the faces that grew from the "fruit seeds" purchased that day.
"Big brother, why are you here?" The child at the door seemed to recognize Chen Ye, and said in a clear voice.
Chen Ye moved the trolley over, wrapped the food in an oiled paper bag, handed it over, and said:
"I'm here to bring you something good."
The group of children immediately excitedly took the oiled paper bag and hurriedly opened it.
However, the 'Fish Eye Coral Tree' that appeared in front of them made the smiles of the children freeze on their faces.
There were also a few more timid children, who held their breath for a moment and remained motionless, as if they were about to cry with fright.
But fortunately, the child who knew Chen Ye was obviously bolder, and directly broke off a piece of 'coral', put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
After a while, his eyes lit up, his little face was full of surprise, and he hurriedly greeted his little friend:
"Come and try it, although this thing looks a little ugly, it's delicious!"
The corners of Chen Ye's mouth twitched slightly, can you not directly use an adjective like "ugly", how to say it, it is also his own craftsmanship, which hurts his self-esteem a little!
But he looked at the appearance of the 'fish eye coral tree', and felt that this child just used the adjective "ugly", and his heart was relatively kind.
Seeing this, several children around hesitated, then broke off a piece and chewed it a few times.
After a few moments, their faces revealed a look of surprise, and their movements became gradually presumptuous.
Eating more and more cheerfully.
It's like I've been hungry for a long time.
[Fright value from Lin Yi -30, surprise value +80!] 】
[Fright value from Lin Er -60, surprise value +50!] 】
[Fright value from Lin Wu -80, surprise value +35!] 】
【……】
[This round of weirdness has increased by a total of 850 points!] 】
At this moment, Chen Ye's weird value reached 23,200 points, continuing to rank second.
But......
The distance between him and Bai Chen has not narrowed, but it has not been widened either, and there is still a difference of four thousand points.
"The psychological impact of the scare value on all children is roughly the same."
"It's just that this kid who has the courage to try crabs for the first time tastes okay, and the expectations of the follow-up friends are raised, so the surprise value is not so high."
"These children have increased a total of eight hundred and fifty points, with an average of more than one hundred points each, which is okay."
At this moment, Lin Shu's figure walked out of the door, looked at the surrounding scene, and his eyes fell on Chen Ye's body, with a little more gratitude.
"This friendly guest, you brought material security to these children when there was a shortage of food, and this kindness was remembered by Lin."
Food shortages...... Chen Ye noticed this word and asked:
"Something has gone wrong lately?"
"Well, it's not a good place to stay long." Lin Shu nodded, glanced at the Lin Mansion behind him, and sighed, "It seems that we will soon leave this place where we have lived and worked in peace and contentment for a period of wandering. ”
Chen Ye's heart moved: "You want to leave?" ”
Lin Shu said: "There is no place in this world that can stay for a long time, and it is not the first time to migrate, I hope to avoid this catastrophe." ”
After pondering for a moment, Chen Ye realized that the aborigines in the strange era all had the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Their thinking patterns are different, although they lack the emotions of normal people, and they use acting more to supplement human communication methods, but their ability to perceive crises is more keen, and when danger comes, they will choose to stay away as quickly as possible.
Fear...... This instinct is also the survival law of the fittest in the weird era.
However, unexpectedly, the Lin family actually wanted to mobilize the power of the entire family and migrate to the next area.
Even if it was a former wealthy family, it couldn't help but degenerate into a wandering existence.
But it seems that because of this, Chen Ye can instead give full play to the characteristics of [Wandering Heart] and get their help......
This seems to be the effect of the characteristics, and it seems to be a natural thing that can no longer be natural.
Chen Ye didn't waste time, and briefly described his need to exchange silver coins at the moment, and the fact that he was forced to migrate due to similar reasons, so he needed a prop that was convenient for storing things with him.
After Lin Shu heard this, without saying a word, he immediately took out ten silver coins.
However.
Unexpectedly, in addition to these ten silver coins, there was also an additional bronze token.
Observe with the pupil of luck......
In the token, the faint glazed light converges like stars into a long bridge of stars, connecting with Chen Ye.
