[Thank you for your generous rewards, thank you, thank you!]

Lin Shu and the others stayed by the lake for another five days, on the one hand, searching everywhere for their missing companions, and on the other hand, Li Jinglong was studying the characteristics of the newly discovered mutant dark herbs, including the characteristics of the growing environment, and even the water quality, climate, and biological communities were also analyzed and recorded.

However, Lin Shu searched with Kong Zhexu and Ye Zhangqian for several days, but there was still no trace of the missing teammates, and there was no news of these missing teammates in the border village.

After another three days, the group of seven people re-crossed the forest and returned to the border village that seemed to have been lost for a long time.

Lin Shu's return is naturally the happiest Lin Xiaomei and Lin Xiaoyong, the two of them don't know that Lin Shu has experienced an adventure of nine deaths and a lifetime, just looking at the trivial situation of the two of them these days, Lin Shu listened with a smile, and would interject from time to time to ask a word or two to see if these two little guys were lazy, a family of three was really happy.

The next day, after the two little guys went to school, Lin Shu came to Li Jinglong's residence as promised, Lin Shu came here for the first time, this residence is built in the middle of the mountain, the view is very good, the area is not small, according to the terrain is divided into three layers, the first floor is the experimental field, and now there are still a few people working in it, next to it should be busy digging a pond, ready to be used to cultivate mutant dark vanilla, and then on the next floor, it is the place for analysis laboratories and office hospitality, and then on it is a building of a large scale of Tang Jiangnan style, and according to the habits of the border village, half of the buildings are also built in the mountain, which looks a little weird beauty。

Li Xiaoxin greeted Lin Shu at the gate of the courtyard, Kong Zhexu followed behind not to be outdone, Lin Shu and the monkey head glanced at Kong Zhexu with disdain, Kong Zhexu rolled his eyes and pretended not to see it.

Li Xiaoxin just said hello politely, Li Xiaoxin was still a little grateful for the person who helped her grandfather successfully find the mutated dark vanilla, although she felt that Lin Shu was a little annoying, especially some rumors that had slowly reached her ears, Li Xiaoxin was of course quite contemptuous and disgusted with the idea that Lin Shu, a toad, wanted to eat swan meat and could struggle for fifty years less.

"By the way, Xie Lu, thank you for taking care of my brother and sister these days!" Lin Shu did thank him sincerely, and he didn't mean anything else, mainly because his younger brothers and sisters said good things about Li Xiaoxin in unison last night, and said that Li Xiaoxin explained meditation to them or something, fortunately, Lin Shu greeted him in advance, and he must not try to meditate anything, because it is not yet time, and it is not advisable to promote the seedlings.

"No thanks, they are them, you are you, you don't need you to thank them, I am good to them because I like their innocence and kindness, please don't get me wrong. ”

Li Xiaoxin replied with a polite smile, but that smile was really rejecting thousands of miles away!

Lin Shu glanced at Li Xiaoxin, who was dressed very fresh and lovely, and then looked at Kong Zhexu, who couldn't help but show a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and almost couldn't help laughing, needless to say, someone must have said bad things about himself in front of Li Xiaoxin, and someone may have regarded himself as a toad who wants to climb the golden branch.

"Well, that's a blessing for both of them. ”

Lin Shu responded with a smile, and silently followed Li Xiaoxin through the stone road in the field, and walked towards the second-story building.

The second floor of the building is a very characteristic building, the outer part of the mountain is completely transparent, this glass-like material is very strong, and has been specially treated, it will not reflect, if it is not for the beautiful plant patterns on it, you will not even feel that there is something here.

Lin Shu was amazed, looking like a standard hillbilly, Li Xiaoxin frowned violently, which made Kong Zhexu look very happy, although Li Xiaoxin didn't give Kong Zhexu any good looks, but the enemy's defeat is his own victory!

This living room is very large, in fact, there is a huge desk in the back, and then there is a huge number of books around the inner wall, and on the other side, separated by transparent glass, is a laboratory with many bottles and cans and instruments, Lin Shu watched all this with envy.

In fact, every cultivator is a scholar, so this typical scholar-style architecture will naturally make Lin Shu like it, of course, Lin Shu is not only a scholar, but also a cultivator, so the desire for the environment is not strong.

Li Jinglong was working with several assistants in the laboratory, Li Xiaoxin took Lin Shu to the wooden bench in the living room and sat down, and was about to make tea for Lin Shu, Kong Zhexu had already come over with the brewed tea, but Lin Shu would not drink the tea made by Kong Zhexu.

In the last few days of this goods on the edge of the Moon Lake, he was a little crazy by Ye Zhangqian's stimulation, and kept wanting to complete the forest tree, but the result was often not very good, so Lin Shu still maintained the highest vigilance against Kong Zhexu.

Li Xiaoxin saw Kong Zhexu come out with tea, he was naturally happy, turned around, and went to call Li Jinglong, Lin Shu turned his head to look at the monkey head who was lying on the glass outside the transparent room, and grinned.

"I say, you're so thick-skinned!"

Kong Zhexu sat on the single seat opposite, crossed Erlang's legs, leaned on the back of the chair leisurely, elegantly pinched the teacup in his hand, and looked down at the forest tree at an angle of minus fifteen degrees, while saying softly with a smile.

"What? I'm thick-skinned, what's the matter?"

Lin Shu asked curiously and loudly, Kong Zhexu hurriedly put down Erlang's legs, looked back at the laboratory, and found that Li Xiaoxin was talking to Li Jinglong inside, so he breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put the teacup in his hand on the tray on the table, stared at Lin Shu hatefully and said: "Hillbilly, don't be delusional, Xiaoxin will not be deceived by you!"

"Hehe, I know it, it's you who say bad things about me behind your back!"

"Hmph, I don't care to do this kind of thing! I'm just revealing some facts, facts!"

Lin Shu nodded: "I know the truth, I'm not like you, I don't like to expose the facts when others are not present, and when Li Xiaoxin comes over, I will also reveal some facts, such as someone is a person from the Ministry of Security, and with the help of Li Jinglong's name to achieve some ulterior purposes, and this person is absolutely honest and serious about the feelings of taking Li Xiaoxin, you say, will she believe it?"

"You"

Kong Zhexu was about to refute, but Lin Shu suddenly smiled behind him and spoke.

"Old Li, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to disturb your work!"

Kong Zhexu glared at Lin Shu fiercely, and hurriedly put on a smiling face to greet Li Jinglong and Li Xiaoxin.

Li Jinglong seemed to be in a good mood when he saw Lin Shu, and the smile on his face was very bright, forming a strong contrast with the cold front around him.

"Oh, don't bother, don't bother at all, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to carry out this work! Oh, by the way, this is the reward of good Lu, a total of three hundred gold coins, you can take this bearer card to transfer money. ”

Lin Shu stretched out his hand and took a card that was only four or five centimeters in size, and looked at it curiously, this kind of thing Lin Shu had seen in the Ye family's store, it was a token payment card, the amount in it was entered by the payer, and the amount was displayed on the card surface.

"Hehe, thanks!"

"This is what you deserve, it will take a while for the discovery of new species and the assistance in research on the part of the Demon Research Society to apply for the bonus, but the number is still good, there should be one or two thousand. ”

"So much!"

"Hillbilly, I have 100,000 gold coins for one shoe!"

Lin Shu rolled his eyes, Li Jinglong glanced at it with disdain, and Li Xiaoxin frowned.

"It has nothing to do with your shoes, you didn't find mutant dark vanilla in those shoes!"

"Ha Lu Ha" Li Jinglong burst into laughter, and when he looked up, he happened to see the monkey's head lying on the glass with his tongue stretched out and licking the glass desperately, and he laughed even more happily.

Li Jinglong, who laughed happily, calmed down after a while, gasped and said to Lin Shu: "I called you here to let you see my collection of books here, you can borrow them to read!"

Lin Shu's eyes lit up suddenly: "Really?!"

Li Xiaoxin frowned again, Kong Zhexu pursed his lips and did not say anything more.

"Why am I lying to you? However, most of the books here are on plants and medicine, and there are also some books on magic and magic array research, but there is not a single one on animal taming. ”

"It doesn't matter what the beast tames, can I borrow these books?"

"Of course, you can borrow it and see it, or you can come here every day!"

Lin Shu was about to agree casually, when he suddenly saw Li Xiaoxin's frowning tighter brows, and Kong Zhexu's gritted teeth, he pretended to think for a while and said, "Let's borrow it and watch it, it's more comfortable at home after all." ”

Li Jinglong seemed to have a little regret about Lin Shu's choice, but he didn't continue to force it, he still nodded with a smile: "Then it's up to you, I won't accompany you to tea today, let Xiao Xin accompany you for me, the assistant in the laboratory is still waiting, I have to rush to work, I'm sorry!"

"You're busy, I'll find a few books and leave, and we'll talk another day when you're free!"

"Oh, that's good!"

After Li Jinglong finished speaking, Lisuo turned around and walked towards the laboratory, not dragging mud and water at all, Lin Shu watched Li Jinglong leave with a smile, then pointed to the bookshelf, and said to Li Xiaoxin: "That"

Li Xiaoxin nodded lightly: "You can find it yourself, I'll sit here." ”

"Okay, if you have something to do, go and get busy, I'll leave soon, don't worry, I won't steal the book and not return it." ”

"Cut, it's not a precious book, it's all bought in a bookstore, go pick up a book, you don't have to worry about mine. ”

Li Xiaoxin waved his hand to drive the forest away like a fly, and turned his head to see that Kong Zhexu was grinning and gloating.

"You too, if you have nothing to do, go and record the changes in water quality, if you have nothing to do all day, please go back to the capital, save yourself a waste of time here." ”
