Things were really as Chen Yuankai had said,
Everyone's expression didn't look too good.
They did not eat much at the dinner that they had agreed on,
The neighbors were happy for Lin Shao's recovery for a while, but when they talked about their own matters, their expressions became serious again,
And the more they talked, the worse the atmosphere became,
They did not eat much of the food on the table,
They did not know where their messy thoughts had gone.
The neighbors did not blame others,
As they spoke, they began to blame themselves,
The more Lin Shao listened, the more he did not know whether to laugh or cry,
The old city district was just being demolished because the houses were too old,
It was not something that offended the heavens and reason,
How could a god be so unreasonable that he would get angry just because he moved house?
He, Chen Yuankai, and a few other young people could not persuade him. He was usually a very easy-going person, so why couldn't he speak clearly at this time?
"The old ancestral hall is very efficacious," his uncle Chen said worriedly. "You are young and don't know, but I know.
It has blessed us for many years. We really shouldn't have demolished it... "
If the old ancestral hall was not demolished and it rained heavily again, Lin Shao thought,
He sighed in his heart.
What should he do?
Although he had also come into contact with unscientific things,
It was only about intelligent creatures other than humans,
Lin Shao really did not know what to do about ghosts and things like that.
No one could come up with anything after discussing,
The dinner had made him a little gloomy. When he returned home, he realized that he was very hungry. He had clearly gone to eat, but when he came back, he did not eat anything.
Lin Shao had no choice but to go to the kitchen to cook a pot of beef noodles and bring it out to eat with Bai Ze.
"I'm so sorry, Bai Ze. I didn't expect this. I just wanted to introduce them to you." Lin Shao felt a little apologetic. "In this situation, you can't do anything there. It's very awkward."
"It's nothing," Bai Zedao said. "I've been listening. It's quite interesting.
No matter what stage the humans have reached, their imaginations will always be far richer than those of the Mountain and Sea Realm. "
"You also know that there are no ghosts in this world, right?" Lin Shao hugged the bowl of noodles with a bitter face. "I have to hand it to them. How can they blame themselves for the accidents at the construction site?"
Bai Ze revealed a faint smile and said, "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly, little Lin Shao. There are many things in this world that can't be explained by reason."
Lin Shao, who was holding the bowl of noodles, was shocked by his words and almost choked.
Bai Ze never spoke carelessly, so his words were a little ambiguous.
Could there really be ghosts?
When Lin Shao had been bound to the Mountain and Sea Realm by the System, he had already reconstructed his worldview. Now, he felt that the worldview he had painstakingly rebuilt was in danger again. Lin Shao was so scared that he stopped eating. He ran over to Bai Ze and grabbed his arm. He looked up at him and asked anxiously, "What is the meaning of this?
Is there really one? "
Bai Ze didn't want to say anything, but when Lin Shao looked at him pleadingly with his round eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say no.
"… If there really is one, I will be very scared." Lin Shao, who had been persuading others an hour ago, became uneasy after hearing Bai Ze's words. "You can't just leave me hanging."
Bai Ze's arm was hugged and he couldn't retract it. Ever since Lin Tuo first appeared, Bai Ze's arm was hugged tightly.
Lei Bi?
Luo Hei mistreats himself and neon to Po Hei Ye.
Che Xi?
What?
Did Meng Liang and Yue Zhi use this method to squat and trample on the rice?
Colonel?
Luck?
Our hearts are in harmony with each other and our illusions are bad. What if we kill ourselves in the wild?
A direct residence
Bai Ze seemed to be used to it, and didn't say anything wrong. However, he liked to tease Lin Shao recently, so he reached out and pinched his face. "Say something nice."
"Bai Ze, Lord Baize, Big Brother Bai Ze …" The spineless Lin Shao blindly called out, and then tried to attack him with his eyes. "Please, tell me. I'm really scared."
It wasn't clear which word struck Bai Ze's heart, but he finally opened his mouth and explained to Lin Shao, "It depends on how you interpret it. When people die, they become ghosts and seek revenge. That doesn't exist. Whether it's in the Human Realm or the Mountain and Sea Realm, the end of any living being's life is the end. There is no such thing as reincarnation.
But other things … there are still some.
Of course, you don't have to be afraid. You won't have such a mess of creatures around you.
This … "
Bai Ze reached out and put Lin Shao around his neck.
Ankles Penetrating?
Scratching Shang Mao Zan Yan Rao Pi Sha Nan Si Ci Kongyu Yue Shun Sun Zhi?
Young Pan Dang Ru Huo Xie Li Zhi Mo?
Liao Xi Zhi Mu?
Qiang Qiang?
Yuanhuan Iridium?
Stunned!
Lin Shao had worn this necklace for so long, but he hadn't found any other use for it. However, his poor sense of direction had completely recovered, and it could even ward off ghosts and evil spirits. It was really a good item.
He hurriedly put the necklace on and didn't forget to ask, "What about the unusual ones?"
"You have me."
Lin Shao was slightly relieved.
He then asked, "But, what happened at the construction site? Was it really because of ghosts?"
"It's not that mysterious. I've heard what they said. Most of it is just the product of imagination. There's no such thing as the anger of the ancestors or the gods."
Bai Zedao said, "But I don't know if there are any unclean things. The things that happened were a little strange. Maybe there are."
Lin Tuo couldn't sleep well the whole night because of this "maybe". He was a little worried and a little scared.
"Will everyone be in danger?
Because of this? "He curled up on the bed and asked in a small voice.
"It'll be fine if we don't go to the construction site," Bai Ze comforted him. "It's all sealed up. Don't worry."
Because he couldn't sleep at night, Bai Ze regretted telling him about this.
When humans encountered such things, they would always have some uncontrollable panic.
Because Lin Shao couldn't sleep well and looked very pitiful under the quilt, he couldn't return to the system under such circumstances. He could only patiently coax his little friend by the bed.
After Lin Shao fell asleep, Bai Ze didn't feel tired. He had never felt tired or sleepy.
Bai Ze should have returned to the system at this time, but he sat at the head of the bed for a long time without moving.
Lin Shao turned on a small warm yellow lamp at the head of the bed, illuminating the small room.
After he fell asleep, he looked very obedient. He curled up with the white quilt wrapped around him. His winter pajamas were fluffy and soft, making him look even more like Little Glutinous Rice Ball.
The more Bai Ze looked at him, the more he thought he was cute. He wanted to pinch his face but was afraid of waking him up. He could only quietly go up and hug the warmly wrapped Little Glutinous Rice Ball in his arms.
It felt good to the touch.
In his sleep, Lin Shao seemed to feel something, but he didn't wake up. He snorted a few times like a little piglet and turned over in his quilt. Originally, he was facing Bai Ze, but now he was facing him. As he breathed, he could smell the faint fragrance of the shower gel on his body.
The next morning, when Lin Shao woke up, he didn't know what happened after he fell asleep. He didn't remember it on his own. It was the sound of the system notification that woke him up.
"The system update has been completed. Please check it in time and work hard to complete the mission. Good luck."
The mechanical notification woke Lin Shao up like an alarm clock.
"Ah …" He opened his eyes in confusion. The winter in the south was very cold indoors. It took a lot of courage to get out of bed every time. Lin Shao struggled for a while under the quilt and saw the shadow of a person standing beside his bed.
"Bai Ze …" He rubbed his eyes. After he saw the person clearly, he greeted weakly, "Don't scare me … I had a very strange dream last night. In the dream, there was a strange-looking ghost who kept haunting me. It even jumped up and hugged me tightly. It was very scary."
When Bai Ze heard that, he felt guilty for a moment, but then his expression returned to normal. He reached out to ruffle Lin Shao's already messy hair and called out softly, "Good boy, it's time to wake up. It's already 9 am. I've made breakfast for you, but after reheating it several times, it doesn't taste good anymore."
"Hmm?"
Hearing that Bai Ze was making breakfast, Lin Shao instantly woke up. He sat up in bed and said, "I want to eat!"
Bai Ze had been by his side for so long that he knew how to cook a bowl of noodles.
Lin Shao mentally prepared himself. He thought that he had woken up late and that the noodles would be all messy. However, after he quickly washed up, he saw a bowl of freshly cooked noodles on the table. There were a few fried eggs and some fresh vegetables on top. It looked delicious.
Bai Ze sat at the table and waved at him, "Come and eat. It'll get cold soon."
"Ah?
Didn't you say that it's been reheated many times? "
"I'm just teasing you," Bai Ze laughed, "Do you think I'll really cook you noodles that have been reheated many times?"
So Lin Shao happily finished the breakfast that Bai Ze had made for him for the first time. He felt that the gloominess of last night seemed to have been swept away by this morning's warm sunlight.
Of course, he hadn't forgotten what had woken him up in the morning. It was the system's notification that the update had been completed.
He opened the system and saw that the four panels hadn't changed. However, the content of the panel had changed a bit.
There were two more empty spaces in the storage space and a new task had been refreshed on the task interface.
Lin Shao had collected 200 points in advance through the little taotie's random task and completed the novice task stage. Now, the task didn't have the novice tag and had become an official task.
The first official task he received had a higher price tag than the novice task. It was a total of 100 points.
The task content was quite simple.
It was written: South?
On Yangshan, lived the Lushu tribe.
The Lushu tribe once had a highly respected chief, but he suddenly disappeared for no reason and no one knew where he was. The Lushu tribe missed him and tried their best to find him, but they still couldn't find any clues.
After seeing the task content, Lin Shao thought for a bit and felt that it was okay. In any case, the tasks he had received so far were all kinds of tasks. He had set up tents and worked as a gardener. This time, he had to help find a missing person. Ah, no, it was missing Lu Kou. It wasn't too outrageous.
What really made him feel a bit nervous was the sentence written at the bottom of the task section. This was also the biggest difference between official tasks and novice tasks. Official tasks had punishment measures.
The last sentence was: The time limit for completing the task is one month. If the task is not completed within the specified time limit, 100 points will be deducted. If the host's account has less than 100 points, the host will be punished by the system.
There was also a small button at the back. When he opened it, it explained in detail what the system's punishment was.
The punishment interface was a turntable. There were many kinds of punishments. Every time the task failed, it would rotate randomly. It would be whatever the pointer pointed to.
Lin Shao looked carefully. There were all kinds of punishments. For example, no matter what you ate, you wouldn't be full. You would maintain a terrifying hunger for a week without dying. Or you would be itchy all over for ten days. There were also freezing and no wounds but you would feel a sharp pain like a knife. These punishments also had a time limit. Some were long, some were short. The only advantage was that the punishment wouldn't cause any sequelae to the body. However, if it was uncomfortable, just looking at the names of these punishments would make one feel very uncomfortable.
Lin Shao looked more and more speechless. He could understand the above, but …
