"Little fool, be good, let's not cry! It's just that you were betrayed. Brother, I won't laugh at you. Although you have lived a little longer, you have still experienced too few things. Every time you learn, you will gain wisdom. Wait for us If I see that old beggar again in the future, I must take revenge!"
Outside the woodshed of Tianxiang Pavilion, Lu Yuan held Xiaohan in his arms and looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle. At the same time, he kept comforting him. However, he did not cry, but a few tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
The old beggar who was thinking about repaying his kindness in the future turned out to be a personal trafficker. In this way, he and Xiao Gui were sold to the largest dusty place in Qingfeng City: Tianxiang Pavilion.
Lu Yuan felt very sad. He hugged the little turtle tightly and said, "Xiaohan, I think we should cry. If I don't cry, I will feel uncomfortable!"
In the end, one person and one turtle couldn't bear it anymore, and they hugged each other in the woodshed, tears streaming down their faces.
It took an hour for them to recover.
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Lu Yuan thought about wiping away Xiaohan's tears. After all, Xiaohan's legs were a bit short and he couldn't reach his head.
When he saw that Xiaohan's face was dry and did not look like she was crying, he was heartbroken, wiped the tears on Xiaohan's face with one hand, and said with concern: "Xiaohan, big brother, please wipe your tears." !”
Xiaohan's clean and cute little face was suddenly covered with tears, just like the look after crying. Only then did Lu Yuan stop the small movements in his hands.
Lu Yuan didn't think Xiaohan was a hypocritical turtle. Thinking about it, no one would feel uncomfortable when encountering such a thing. Crying would be conducive to healthy growth, so he forgave Xiaohan for losing control of his emotions this time.
At the same time, he was also self-examining. The lesson he learned this time had something to do with him as the elder brother. He failed to do a good job in educating Xiaohan not to easily trust strangers. This was the second responsibility he took in this incident. Be responsible!
"Xiaohan, although we were forced to sign a thirty-year contract, but if you think about it carefully, this is not a bad thing. We had no place to go, but now at least we have a place with food and accommodation in Qingfeng City. .”
After hearing this, Xiaohan raised his cute head again. He was still feeling uncomfortable just now and was thinking about whether to die and end this humiliating life. After Lu Yuan explained it, he had the courage to live again. .
"We can live forever, so what if we work for thirty years? This time is not worth mentioning to our lifespan! It's great to have food and shelter included. Although there is no salary, as long as we eat more , if you eat for a long time, you will never lose money!”
Lu Yuan became more confident as he spoke, as if the easy life in thirty years was waving to them. He picked up the hatchet on the ground and chopped down hard on a log.
The wood was not split, leaving only a knife mark.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the identity: Red Dust Swordsman! 】
[Unlocked skills: Basic knife skills (0/1000)]
[Note: You can view the host’s personal information after reaching the basic level of sword skills! 】
When Lu Yuan heard the system prompt again, his arms were trembling with excitement. He would not tell the truth to Xiaohan. The trembling was because he had moved his arms while loading the cup.
He did not check this information immediately, but put down the knife in his hand, put his hands behind his back, raised his head to the sky, and said with a master's style: "Second brother, please summarize what the elder brother just said. The good elder brother who has summarized it will tell you this Good news, if not summed up well... Huh!"
"Since you don't take Brother's words to heart, then don't blame Brother for being ruthless!"
A ruthless sneer appeared on Lu Yuan's lips, looking like a villain.
Xiaohan shrank his head nervously, how could there be such a person? It was obviously an ordinary chat, but suddenly the conversation turned into a life and death situation.
Just like the little fool who was suddenly called on to answer a question in class, he screamed a little unfluently, "Squeak...squeak...squeak, squeak!"
The two have the same mind, and Lu Yuan can understand what Xiaohan means.
He was very satisfied with Xiaohan's answer and praised: "Misfortunes and blessings depend on each other. There is something in your summary. Now that we have experienced misfortunes, let me tell you what blessings are!"
After Lu Yuan took a look around to make sure that no one else was eavesdropping, he quietly told Xiaohan the new system prompt in Xiaohan's ear.
After that, one person and one turtle squatted in the woodshed, pointing and drawing on the ground with branches. They studied the system's new prompts for a long time. After experimental demonstration, they came to two major points about the system:
First, the system prompts at this stage are triggering, and the system will only pop up after unlocking something strange.
Second, the skill proficiency of basic knife skills can be improved by chopping wood, but the efficiency at this stage is a bit low.
After finishing the research, Lu Yuan was full of energy and sighed: "Xiaohan, we both have a bright future!"
Xiaohan also raised his head, his eyes full of longing, as if he saw a non-existent future waving to them.
…
"Xiaohan, help me!"
Outside the woodshed of Tianxiang Pavilion, a turtle propped up the wood. In order to prevent the wood from falling over, the turtle used its two front paws to hold it firmly.
An afterimage flashed past, and it was obvious that it was a hatchet, splitting the wood in half in an instant.
The moment the knife shadow landed on the wood, the turtle had already retracted its front paws into its shell to prevent accidental injury. The faster the knife was, the faster it was.
"Haha, Xiaohan, do you feel that I am getting faster and faster?" Lu Yuan asked in a show off manner.
Xiaohan nodded his head in affirmation, and at the same time squeaked to indicate that it was getting more and more powerful.
Lu Yuan threw the hatchet aside, wiped the sweat from his head, sat down next to Xiaohan, and took a brief rest.
A full half a year has passed since the day they arrived.
He and Xiaohan are becoming more and more accustomed to this job of chopping wood. From the first day when they were too tired to complete the workload due to backache, they can now do the job easily and even over-complete some tasks of chopping wood every day.
This is not to say that he loves this job, he is just chopping firewood to gain proficiency!
At the beginning, one level of proficiency could be improved every ten days, but now one level of proficiency can be improved every three days. This huge change has also changed the proficiency level of basic sword skills from 0 to 30.
Everything is developing in a good direction. It seems to be very slow, but Lu Yuan is already very satisfied with it. After all, this is the result of many overtime nights.
I still remember that in the first few days, the steward of Tianxiang Pavilion disliked his slow work and would deprive him of some food every time, so that he would be tired and hungry every day when he went to bed.
Later, he slowly persisted. As his proficiency increased, his woodchopping skills became better and better, and he also chopped faster and faster.
The steward of Tianxiang Pavilion no longer makes things difficult for him, at least he can have enough food.
Because he sometimes worked overtime to improve his proficiency, this scene was seen many times by the stewards of Tianxiang Pavilion, so he was even praised.
What leader wouldn’t like such employees who work quietly and hard? !
He was treated as a role model and given more free time.
Lu Yuan is not chopping firewood all the time. When he is free, he will go to the front building to secretly see what is different about the service industry in this world.
After reading it, he just shook his head in disappointment, and then returned to the woodshed to continue splitting his wood.
