Chapter 120 Eat well
This reason...is really naive.
However, it was incredible that Fang Shiqing actually felt that he could understand the other party's mood.
Wasn't he the same as yesterday?I just want to hide the scrambled eggs with shepherd's purse and not share it with anyone. I hope that only myself can enjoy this special treatment.Because yesterday's meal meant so much to him; it was the first time someone cooked for him since his family was gone, and the person who did the cooking was Xiao Fengdi.
Since the other party has given him a unique experience, of course he should return with the same unique thing.But he failed to do so, and of course it was his fault.
"I can understand your feelings," he apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, boss, I didn't consider you..."
"Can you understand?" Xiao Fengdi repeated, grabbing his shoulder suddenly, his tone became more intense than ever, "Do you understand what I'm talking about? Do you understand?"
—Wait, why are you so excited?
Fang Shiqing was taken aback by him, and became uncertain again.His palms and eyes were hot, the heat was very scorching, making his mouth dry and his heart beating faster.
"Uh, can... right? Because you only cooked the meal for me yesterday, so I should only serve it to you today? I didn't think carefully, can I cook other dishes for you tomorrow? Just for you."
"..."
The heat in Xiao Fengdi's eyes dimmed little by little.
He slowly let go of his hand and took a step back.
"...Don't bother. That's enough for today."
Fang Shiqing was confused by the other party's reaction.
—Did he say something wrong?
Does today's meal have more significance to the boss?Is it a special meaning that he couldn't imagine, so when he said "understandable", the big brother felt offended, and that's why his attitude was so intense?
Other than that, he couldn't think of any more reasons.How should I put it, although he doesn't think Xiao Fengdi is the kind of person who thinks out of the way, but recently he feels more and more that he and he are always at odds—whether in thought or words.
Where did it go wrong?He really couldn't figure it out.
"Then, then I... go back first?"
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to want to talk to him very much, he had no choice but to test it out.
"..." Xiao Fengdi sighed, "It's a bit late, I'll see you off."
"By the way," he remembered something again, "I'm going to rest tomorrow, and I plan to go to the mountains to the east. If I can catch wild game, I'll bring it there for you."
Xiao Fengdi kept his word and came to Qingliang Farm the next afternoon.
When he stepped into the farm, Fang Shiqing was holding a hand saw and a plane, gesticulating against the lumber spread all over the floor, and there were a few wooden boards that seemed to be used for fences, which looked decent.
"What are you doing?"
Noticing that what Fang Shiqing was cutting was a strange shape, Xiao Fengdi asked.
"Uh," Fang Shiqing said awkwardly, "Actually... I want to try to make a spindle."
"Spindle? . . . Do you want to spin thread and weave cloth?"
A spindle is a tool used to make cotton or wool into yarn, and it appears in fairy tales from time to time—for example, in the story of Sleeping Beauty, the reason why the princess fell into a deep sleep was that she was stabbed by a spindle.
"Yes. I just sheared the wool today. According to the information I found before, wool is far more valuable than wool, so I want to try to deal with it." The shearing tool was picked up by him when he went to He Xiangwu's shop yesterday. back.
A piece of wool is worth 300 yuan, but the wool spun with the same amount of wool is worth 800 yuan, which is not a small difference.
Speaking of it, the work of "spinning", no matter in ancient or modern times, seems to be regarded as women's work by default, and men hardly touch related things.
Fang Shiqing doesn't have such gender stereotypes. As long as he can make money, he is willing to try anything.But as a modern person, he really has no concept of "hand-spinning thread", and has never seen a real spindle. Now he can only follow the pictures in the skill book and draw by himself.
This time Xiao Fengdi couldn't help either, so he could only stand by and watch him tinker.
After a while, he finally came up with something grotesque, what looked like a stick with a little disk on it, and a little hook on the top.
"Is this... a spindle?"
"It should be right? The reference book says so."
Two big men squatted on the ground, confused about the drawings and materials.
"Anyway, let's try it first." Fang Shiqing fetched the wool that had been washed and arranged, and then——
"Fuck! It really works!"
With the continuous rotation of the "spindle", he saw the wool turned into a thin thread, and he was suddenly full of amazement.This kind of astonishment turned into admiration for the ancestors: only such a small thing can turn hair into thread, which is amazing!
After all, the structure of the spindle is too simple, and the threads spun in reality often have many defects, so they were later replaced by more advanced tools.But this problem doesn't exist in the game.
The two balls of wool quickly turned into two balls of wound yarn. Fang Shiqing was so excited that he wished he could find something else to spin and play with.
He has hardly experienced this feeling of novelty and satisfaction before; even the coolest and most exquisite 3A masterpieces have never brought him such a wonderful experience like this simple and old-fashioned tool at this moment.
Games are fun, of course, but this thing has a very different kind of fun.Of course, the simulation business games he played in the past also have the design of spinning and weaving, but they often just use the raw materials on the machine, and then get the finished product directly, which is completely incomparable in terms of experience.
"Boss, look, it's really turned into a thread! It's really——what's wrong?"
Xiao Fengdi was looking at him.Instead of looking at the spindle that performed the miracle, I was looking at his smiling face.
"It's okay, but I didn't expect you to be so happy."
Fang Shiqing quickly rubbed his face: "I don't know why, but I just think it's amazing and fun. I'm sorry, boss..."
"Why do you apologize?" Xiao Fengdi smiled instead, "I think it's pretty good."
He stood up, "I've been so busy, haven't I eaten yet? I brought you the things I promised."
Say good things?That is to say...
Fang Shiqing's eyes lit up all of a sudden.
Sure enough, Xiao Fengdi then took out two hares from the props.
Probably considering Fang Shiqing's psychological endurance, the hare had already been killed - but speaking of it, this thoughtfulness is not so necessary.At this moment, Fang Shiqing looked at the two poor rabbits, his mind was full of "meat!"...
This kind of thing must not be cooked in a wok. The two cleared an open space near the water source and built a temporary barbecue grill with wire, wood and stone.
Xiao Fengdi took the rabbit aside to deal with, Fang Shiqing couldn't help at all with this kind of matter, he could only help prepare the seasoning.
"By the way," he suddenly remembered, "can rabbit hair be spun?"
"I don't know. However, if it can be sold, I think the whole animal skin would be more suitable."
Xiao Fengdi put the bloody animal skins into the inventory, and cleaned the internal organs and blood directly, almost without letting him see them.
In terms of anatomy alone, he is much more proficient than You Qingyu.Fang Shiqing thought to himself, if she hadn't solved the monster the next time she met You Qingyu, he suggested that she come to the boss to learn from him.
The cut meat is sliced, skewered on temporary wooden sticks, and slowly grilled on the charcoal fire—by the way, the charcoal used today was made by Fang Shiqing when he was practicing the "craft" skill according to the skill book last night. Came out to practice.
The smell of meat gradually dissipated, and the animal fat sizzled. While Fang Shiqing swallowed fiercely, he felt a little more guilty: Speaking of which, it was a wild game brought by the boss, but it was not shared with anyone else. Taking it over and giving it to him... This made him feel honored, and also felt guilty about eating alone.
Vegetables are nothing more than meat. Meat is rare and delicious. If others know about it, they might hate him.
Xiao Fengdi seemed to know what he was thinking, and while flipping the seasoning on the barbecue, he said: "We two can't eat much, and if we can't eat you, you can share it with others."
——Boss, why do you understand so well!Fang Shiqing was so touched that he was about to say "Boss, you are really a good person", when he suddenly remembered what happened last time, he forced a turn: "Boss, you are really... good."
"..."
Xiao Fengdi almost threw the barbecue grill under his hand into the charcoal.Fang Shiqing was taken aback: "Are you okay? You didn't get burned... What's wrong?"
"...It's okay. The fire here is hard to burn people."
Xiao Fengdi hastily straightened the grill and handed the roasted meat to Fang Shiqing in a disguised manner.
"Are you all right?" Fang Shiqing looked at his hands, and there was no sign of burns, so he was a little relieved, "You should go first, I didn't do anything, just waiting to eat, it's shameful."
Xiao Fengdi didn't respond, but continued to look at other barbecues, and stuffed the cooked parts into his hands, seemingly absent-minded, and his eyes seemed to be avoiding his face.
This made him feel a little strange, but as more meat was roasted, he was blinded by the food and couldn't care about these details anymore.
After eating a barbecue comfortably, Fang Shiqing leaned on the stone by the river and let out a satisfied breath.
He feels that life cannot be more comfortable now: this sense of comfort is different from before, not because this is a "game" and he can indulge in the game, but because he is now in good health, has hope in life, It's full, and there's...
"By the way," Xiao Fengdi said suddenly, looking at the flowing river, "I'm going on a long trip tomorrow, and it may take three or four days before I return to town. If you have time these few days, help me go to the library and feed the cat .”
"Ah?" Fang Shiqing sat up all of a sudden, "Where are you going?"
Is there any map around that needs to be explored for several days in a row?
"...It can't be in the mountains to the west. Are you going to find another entrance to the underground labyrinth?"
"No, it's a little personal."
He obviously didn't intend to say more.
Fang Shiqing suddenly remembered that in fact, there have been similar situations before, the other party concealed the target more than once and acted alone - such as on Arbor Day, or earlier.
Since it is a "private matter", of course he has no position to ask.
Probably because he was frustrated, Xiao Fengdi paused, and said one more sentence: "It's the work of the Exorcist, and it has nothing to do with you. You should imagine that the organization of the Exorcist sends people to this place again and again." In the game', there must be something to ask for. I have to complete my own job."
"Oh..." Fang Shiqing's mood improved a bit, but a lot of worries arose, "Will there be any danger?"
"It shouldn't matter," he looked at Fang Shiqing and said, "You have to be careful, don't be caught by monsters accidentally."
"No, I'm not Tang Monk." Fang Shiqing smiled wryly.
The next day, Fang Shiqing cooked the remaining meat, packed it separately, and prepared to give it to other players.
Today he didn't go in order, but went to the library first.
Xiao Fengdi had already left, and there was no one in the library, except for a three-colored cat lying at the door, and came up to beg for a hug when he saw him.
He brought Xiao Hua into the lounge, added cat food to it, and sat down on the chair.
——Boss, what is he doing now?It is said that it is the work of the spirit remover, but what does the spirit remover need to do?Why is he in this game?
Until now, he suddenly realized that he actually didn't know much about Xiao Fengdi, or rather, Xiao Fengdi's world was something he couldn't get involved in and understand.
——However...why do you want to know?
Fang Shiqing thinks that he is not a very curious person, and he always lives with a mediocre mentality, and he is never obsessed with full achievements even when playing games.But at this very moment, he found himself desperately wanting to know someone, everything about him, past and present.
This is a very dangerous idea. He dare not think deeply about it. He always feels that once he digs deeper, the truth hidden in his heart will scare him to death.
He tried to force it out of his mind.In order to let myself stop thinking about it, I hurriedly left after sitting for a while, and went to the next place without even touching the cat.

As long as the sentence "you are such a good person" is shortened to "you are so kind", the taste in the words will be completely different...()
