Chapter 10 Chopping Firewood and Eating

I glanced at Lu Zhen with a bald head, and his eyes showed the kindness of an old father. Quan is a wonderful story of a silent depressed young man who had a conflict with his family, ran away from home, and went abroad to find his girlfriend who was dating online.

While driving the car, he said with his bald head: “young man, is the friend you are looking for a man or a woman? The most important thing is to first find out if the other party is engaged in pyramid schemes.”

“Cough, back then, I had a friend who was invited by a female netizen and ran all the way to the outside city, almost returning Don’t come.”

Lu Zhen suddenly said: “This friend is you, right?”

The bald head trembled, and the van vibrated: “Ah, this… How is this possible? It is a friend of mine, a real friend. I heard him say that as soon as he got off the train, he was taken to the suburbs to introduce the project. If he hadn’t run away decisively, the consequences would have been disastrous.”

Lu Zhen did not speak. , staring blankly at the rapidly retreating scenery outside the car window.

After driving for a while, the bald head couldn’t help but ask: “Young man, what are you doing with your friends? Tell me, and Old Brother will help you with the details.”

The car The room was quiet, and when the bald head thought that Lu Zhen would not answer and was already embarrassed, he suddenly heard Wang Zhen say, “Make a deal.”

The bald head gave a “tsk” and said, “Line Make a deal? Old Brother speak frankly, you are a bit like the one who saw netizens lose their kidneys. As a boy, you should protect yourself when you go out.”

“Few people can Hurts me.”

“Typical beatings that don’t go through the society, you will know how big the society is when you go out for a while.”

“Old Brother advises you to be careful when you go out. , you need to know how to guard against strangers, of course, not to say Old Brother me, it is no exaggeration to say, Old Brother I look like a good person.”

The inside of the car fell silent, and the sky outside was getting brighter .

The bald head glanced at Lu Zhen a few times, he hesitated, and finally couldn’t help being curious, and asked tentatively: “Is the transaction you are talking about the kind of transaction I think?”

Lu Zhen looked towards the bald head: “I want to trade cultivation techniques with him, I don’t know if he will agree.”

“The cultivation techniques in games? Old Brother doesn’t like to play games, so he doesn’t understand. You youngsters made these things.” The bald head was a little disappointed and nodded, “Is this thing also need offline transactions? Isn’t online transactions safer? But speaking, if there is a lot of money involved, you can rest assured if you see people. “

“He’s not a bad person.”

“Who knows who is a good person or a bad person? This person is the most complicated. The friends we meet every day don’t know who is good and who is bad, let alone a Netizens who have only chatted a few times online? It’s not surprising to do anything.”

“Old Brother advises you, be careful, if the situation is not right, run away decisively, just like Old Brother’s friend It’s the same.”

They chatted without a word, and when they were about to reach the village, the fiery red sun had already appeared in the east.

The bald head was very happy to say it, and he casually invited: “Would you like to go to Old Brother’s house for breakfast? Where can I find food in this place now? I tell you, Old Brother used to work in a restaurant. For a few months, this cooking skill has nothing to do with it.”

He thought that the youngster next to him was so introverted that he didn’t like to say a word, and it was unlikely that he would accept an invitation from a stranger to eat. What kind of meal, so just say it casually.

It’s like meeting two acquaintances. One person asks “Have you eaten?” It’s not really inviting the other person to dinner, but just looking for a topic to chat, just like “the weather is nice today”.

Just as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the word “OK” coming from the front passenger seat, which made him completely unprepared, and even swallowed the pretentious words in his mouth to continue the invitation, and blinked. Eyes, not knowing what to say for a while.

The van stopped in front of the bald head’s gate.

“This is the Old Brother’s house, the new house built last year, it’s not bad.” The bald head got out of the car, took out the key to open the door,

“Father, you’re back. !”

As soon as the door opened, a four or five-year-old little girl with braids running to the door blinked her big eyes and threw herself into her bald arms.

The bald head picked up her daughter, looked around nervously, and asked in a low voice, “Where did your mother go?”

The little girl timidly glanced at the follower. Lu Zhen, said crisply: “The mother said that you won’t come back overnight, she’s going to prepare a big stick.”

The bald head glanced at Lu Zhen with an embarrassed look, and quickly explained: “What she said is Ducks, it must be that the father didn’t come back yesterday, and the group of ducks didn’t enter the nest again.”

The little girl said: “The ducks entered the nest, and mother threw your quilt out and asked you to go out later at night. Go to sleep.”

The bald head explained forcefully: “It’s your mother who is sensible and knows how to dry the quilt for the father. Seeing that the weather is good again, the quilt should be taken out and dried.”

Putting the little girl down at the kitchen door, she said with her bald head, “Xiaoyan plays by herself, and the father cooks breakfast. The mother has been busy all morning and must not even eat breakfast.”

The little girl looked again Looking at Lu Zhen, he whispered: “mother has already cooked, just didn’t cook father’s meal, mother told father not to come back to eat in the future.” Saying “mother is joking”, he hurriedly slipped into the kitchen.

There was an axe in front of the kitchen door, and a pile of unfinished wood was thrown on the ground.

Lu Zhen washed a face with tap water, took off his coat, picked up an axe, and tried to chop wood.

Taking off his coat, he was only wearing a short sleeve on his upper body, revealing two frightening black greens on his forearms, which were the injuries caused by that fatty.

It won’t have any effect when he walks normally, but when he makes an action like chopping wood, it will have a slight effect. Every time he exerts force, both forearms will feel tingling.

Nevertheless, Lu Zhen’s face was invisible, his expression almost blank when chopping wood.

Obviously, although his body was chopping wood earnestly, his mind had already drifted to somewhere.

The little girl stood aside and looked curiously at Lu Zhen who was chopping wood. When the axe in Lu Zhen’s hand split the log, she obediently piled it aside.

He walked out of the kitchen with a bald head and saw Lu Zhen who was chopping wood.

He glanced at Lu Zhen’s numb expression and the black green on his forearm, muttered “Domestic violence is not acceptable”, looked towards his daughter who was stacking firewood, the kindness in his eyes almost turned into reality .

Lu Zhen was chopping wood very fast, and it didn’t take long for half of it to be chopped.

The gate was pushed open, and a dark-faced woman entered the courtyard without a word.

“mother!” The little girl dropped the firewood in her hand and ran to the woman happily.

The woman squatted down, took the little girl into her arms, asked a few words in a low voice, then gave Lu Zhen a cold look, ran into the kitchen in three or two steps, and slammed the door with her backhand.

A chaotic voice came out, followed by the eager voice of the bald head.

“Hey, don’t, don’t…there’s someone out there…face…”

“It’s not a gang of scoundrels…look…arms…”

“Domestic violence…away from home…how is it possible? I met you on the road.”

“Aiya, such a poor person, what’s wrong with greeting him for a meal? They even chop wood for the family. , look how good that chopping wood is.”

“Abusive… can’t force a fart all day, doesn’t like talking…”

A few minutes later, the woman He walked out of the kitchen, smiled apologetically at Lu Zhen, then walked into the room, took out a bottle of jiujiu and put it on the chair beside Lu Zhen, and briefly explained how to use the jiujiu. He hurried into the kitchen.

After chopping wood, Lu Zhen picked up the wine and carefully rubbed the bruised places on both arms.

The physique of a person who refines Qi is much stronger than that of an ordinary person. This kind of injury that looks scary in the eyes of ordinary people can actually be completely recovered in just a few days. The injury improved.

The most important thing is that Bitajiu can relieve pain. When he rubbed his forearm hot, he could barely feel the pain.

After a meal at the bald house, Lu Zhen simply borrowed the bathroom of the bald house.

After taking a quick shower and getting dressed, Lu Zhen frowned at the money he took out of his pocket.

He’s just immersed in the world he’s pursuing, and he doesn’t want to pay attention to the world. He’s not a fool who doesn’t understand anything.

On the contrary, he knows a lot, but thinks that such things are too troublesome and can distract people the most, so he always avoids thinking about these things to the greatest extent possible.

When he has to think about it, it is when he is distressed. For example, after a hitchhiking and a good breakfast, how much money should be left for the bald family, so as not to let him The bald head thinks that he has given too much and is unwilling to accept it, or perhaps he has given too little, making the bald head feel despised?

Going out of the bathroom, Lu Zhen who was still thinking about this question suddenly looked towards the direction of the courtyard, his eyes switched from absent-mindedness to a depth that was almost never seen before.
