Chapter 480 Just kidding
Chapter 480 Just kidding
"A county town's worth of food? Senior, you must be joking. In this chaotic world, which county town can have so much food?"
The street vendors were not so easy to fool, but what Tian Lin said was not entirely false.
"My dear brother, you are in Fuzhou, not far from the teleportation array next door to the Northern Wasteland. Haven't you heard that Beiye County has opened up a wasteland underground, and the grain grown there is piled up into mountains every day?"
Seeing that the vendor still didn't believe him, Tian Lin said proudly, "To be honest, I built that underground space. That's why Wang Yanyu wouldn't let me go. Even if I ran to the ends of the earth, she would still offer a huge reward to bring me back."
Hearing that Tian Lin could grow enough food for a city, the vendor was inspired and couldn't help but say, "Senior, if you have such a talent, why don't you stay in Nanzhou and benefit all living beings in the world?"
Tian Lin was disdainful of what he said and sneered, "What nonsense are you talking about, little brother? It's enough for me to be full, why should I care about the sentient beings in the world?"
The small vendor has a strong sense of justice, perhaps because he is one of the hungry people in the world.
He couldn't help but say, "As the saying goes, a successful person should help the world. Senior, you only care about your own life and death. Isn't that too selfish?"
Tian Lin snorted coldly, "Why do you need to criticize me for what I did? Tell me clearly, do you want to do the origami thing?"
The vendor gritted his teeth and said, "I'll do it!"
A penny can make a hero fall, and now a grain of rice is crushing the small vendors.
Tian Lin smiled and said, "Okay, when you have folded the paper man, I will come to see you again."
After saying this, Tian Lin stopped talking to the vendor and left holding Mei Xiangu's hand.
It was not until they left the market that Mei Xiangu could not help but ask, "Your plan is to use this paper figurine to deal with our enemies? No wonder you have been reading the Qi Men Dun Jia book whenever you have time during this period."
She couldn't help but whispered, "Your paper figurine can hardly be hidden from a Yuanying cultivator, let alone a Jindan cultivator like me. Your plan is obviously not going to work."
Tian Lin said: "We will know whether it works or not after a while. It's getting late now, let's go home."
Previously, in order to pretend to be a couple, the two held hands.
Now they no longer had to pretend to be a couple in front of the street vendors, so Fairy Mei simply shook off Tian Lin's hand.
As soon as they returned to the yard, Aunt Xin came up to them impatiently and asked, "How are you two?"
Mei Xiangu knew that Aunt Xin wanted to bring her and Tian Lin together, so she said unhappily, "There's no chance for me and him."
Aunt Xin quickly said, "I'm not talking about your relationship. I'm asking if you found the secret well?"
Mei Xiangu realized that she had been thinking wrong. Her face darkened and she said, "I didn't find it. I'm going to sleep now."
She left after she finished speaking, and heard Aunt Xin asking behind her: "Aren't you going to eat? At least eat something first."
"Not hungry."
First, Mei Xiangu's response was heard in the corridor, followed by the sound of the door closing.
When Aunt Xin looked at Tian Lin, Tian Lin smiled and asked Aunt Xin: "Have you found anything in the past few days?"
Aunt Xin knew that Tian Lin was asking about the abandoned wells, so she said honestly, "We also visited all the abandoned wells in Fuzhou City, but we didn't find anything."
After a pause, she looked at Tian Lin and said, "The Fairy is a true disciple of the Goddess Sect. She must know more secrets of the Abandoned Well. If you have time, ask her—"
Tian Lin waved his hand to interrupt Aunt Xin's words: "You also saw her attitude towards me just now. Instead of asking me to go find her, why don't you go find her and ask her clearly yourself." Aunt Xin said: "As long as you are more restrained at night and focus more of your energy on her instead of other women, she won't be angry."
Tian Lin laughed when he heard this and said, "You don't understand how much fun it is to make this kind of thing. It's not like you can be moderate just because you say you can."
Aunt Xin was speechless. After Tian Lin returned to his room, she said with a dark face, "I don't understand? When the world was still in chaos, I was having fun every night."
At this time, another old woman came over and comforted her, saying, "Come on, there's no need to be angry about this. Young people are not tactful in their words. We don't need to take these insignificant words to heart."
That night, there was still non-stop babbling in Tian Lin's room.
The old women in the yard have become accustomed to it, and at this time, they have learned to plug their ears so as not to be annoyed by it.
The next morning, Tian Lin got up refreshed and went out to look for the abandoned well as usual.
But in the next two days, he would go to the restaurant with Mei Xiangu.
But where are the street vendors over at the restaurant?
After two days, Mei Xiangu realized something was wrong and said to Tian Lin, "Is this guy going to the New Heaven Sect to inform on the matter?"
Tian Lin said: "What can he reveal? Saying that we are disciples of the Taoist sect, or that we have a grudge against Wang Yanyu?"
The rumor that he and Wang Yanyu had turned from love to hate was made up by Tian Lin, although Mei Xiangu also suspected that there was some truth to the rumor.
But she couldn't help but ask, "Do you think what you said is funny? Now is not the time for jokes."
Tian Lin nodded and said, "If he really informed the New Heavenly Church, then the New Heavenly Church should have come to find us long ago - but until now the New Heavenly Church has not shown up, doesn't this prove that the New Heavenly Church is just waiting for an opportunity?
It's not going to get any worse, so there's nothing to worry about."
Although Tian Lin said this, he still went to the restaurant every day for the next two days, but he never saw the small vendor.
Mei Xiangu was convinced that the vendor had bad intentions and would never appear in front of Tian Lin again. Therefore, she no longer followed Tian Lin to the restaurant.
Several days passed like this. That night, Mei Xiangu was lying on the bed, forcing herself not to hear Tian Lin's moans next door.
But soon, she felt that the door of the house was opened and a stranger entered her house from outside.
Fairy Mei instantly stood up from the bed and prepared to throw the Goddess Tree in her hand to the people passing by.
But she quickly stopped the action because Tian Lin's secret voice rang in her mind: "Don't panic, follow me quietly."
Mei Xiangu didn't say anything. She noticed that there was a woman who looked similar to herself next to Tian Lin.
“Is this the paper figure you folded?”
Fairy Mei knew that Tian Lin spent every night in the house studying Qi Men Dun Jia and folding paper figures for fun.
She couldn't help but marvel at Tian Lin's talent. You know, folding a paper man is nothing, but being able to fold a paper man to look like a living person is extremely impressive.
"How about it, my skills are still pretty good, right?"
Tian Lin smiled, but Mei Xiangu looked at the woman who looked like herself and said:
"The face is only 70% similar to me. It may fool people at night, but in the daytime, I'm afraid it can't even fool a Jindan cultivator. So, are you planning to use this level of origami to deceive Yuanying strongmen? Aren't you kidding us with our lives?"
