Rice bug

Lin Dong squatted next to the rice vat again.The inn chef picked a wooden stick and said, "Young man, what are you doing?"

Lin Dong said absent-mindedly: "Relax." After speaking, his whole face was buried in the rice vat.

The chef was so startled that his hands trembled and his gums almost bleed, but Lin Dong didn't react at all, lying motionless in the rice vat.

Ye Batian, who was still following behind to see the strangeness, tilted his head with his arms crossed, "Is this a new trick?"

Lin Dong didn't say a word, he closed his eyes and took small mouthfuls of breath. The strong smell of rice penetrated into his nostrils, like some kind of addictive poison, directly reaching his brain through his nose, making him quiet.

This rice fragrance is different from that of Zuoshantou Daying. It does not have the freshness, but it has a thicker and more earthy taste.It's like mixing soil, sunshine, and golden waves when the autumn wind blows through the wheat field.

The fragrance is strong and gloomy, like a wetland after rain.After smelling it a few times, the smell faded away, leaving the cold rice on the face, which felt a little dry to the touch.

Lin Dong raised his head, wiped off the rice grains sticking to the surface with his hands, looked around, pulled a bench and sat down, put his hands in the rice and began to scratch around carelessly.

Not soft, very hard, it is ordinary rough rice.When I grab a handful and dawdle in the palm of my hand, my palm is hot, it doesn't hurt, but it's not very comfortable.

Lin Dong looked at his hands in a daze, Ye Batian suddenly stretched his head from the side, "Hey, are you worried?"

Lin Dong groaned, raised his hand, and the rice fell from his fingers, and he grabbed it again and continued this action.

After a while he said, "Are you traveling around?"

"Yeah." Ye Batian nodded, "Where there are villains, I will go there, and it will be my Ye family to recover the opponent, and then we will fight south and north together, and recover all the bandit dens!"

When Ye Batian talked about this, his eyes almost sparkled, and Lin Dong asked, "Aren't you staying in the cottage to look after the house?"

"There are Ye Ying and Qingshan, but that kid in Qingshan is always worrying." Ye Batian sighed, "It's because I spoil him too much."

Listening to Ye Qingshan's words, Lin Dong also knew that his elder brother loved him a lot since he was a child. At that time, he thought that the other party was at least as tall as Zang Feilong. How could he know that the truth was so far from what he imagined.

Ye Batian looked troubled, and said: "You have studied, so tell me, should I let Qingshan do some headhunting?"

Lin Dong blinked and thought to himself: I'm sorry, your precious younger brother Yaodi has been encouraged by us to go to the capital to be a headhunter...

But of course he couldn't say that, so he could only say: "Respect the other party's choice, and then trust him."

Speaking of this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.respect?believe?

Although he knew that Zang Feilong would definitely come to save him at the last moment, but the basis of this belief was not reciprocal.

What he gave was absolute belief, but Zang Feilong still had a self-important conceit, and he always regarded those who did not follow his requirements as provocations, so he thought of ways to give others a blow and then build up his own prestige.

This approach is like a wild beast enclosure, but they are human beings, and human beings have a minimum of self-esteem.

He respected Zang Feilong's self-esteem, but what about Zang Feilong?Even if he is a military adviser, he never thought about being used as a subordinate.

You must know that he could have chosen to leave, and he did not have any necessary conditions to be tied to the same boat as them.

The deeper this thought was, the stronger his wavering thoughts became.Just talk to him clearly in a while, and then each go his own way. If he wants to be the boss so much, he should find a subordinate who is willing to be ordered by him.

But that person will definitely not be me.

After thinking about this point, Lin Dong clapped his hands and stood up from the side of the rice vat.

"Where are you going next?" He asked Ye Batian.

"Us? I'll send a person to the capital." Ye Batian said, "It's the person you saw before. I picked him up halfway and was seriously injured."

Lin Dong was surprised, he thought they were together, "I picked it up halfway? Was it seriously injured?"

Ye Batian smiled and said: "I know what you are going to say, don't worry, he is not someone of unknown origin, he was in a coma when I picked him up, I searched him, but found nothing."

Lin Dong: "..." Isn't this called unknown? !

"You never thought... Could he be hunted down by someone?"

"Think about it." Ye Batian nodded, "If he is very good, I plan to let him join Yejiazhuang!"

"..." Lin Dong almost forgot that all this guy's starting point is to strengthen Yejiazhuang.

"If he's not good, it's okay to just save someone along the way." Ye Batian said, "Maybe you can get some rewards if you send him back. Isn't that what bandits do!"

"..." Is it like this to be a bandit?Lin Dong was suddenly confused.

"I'm not at a loss after all the calculations." Ye Batian still looked like I'm smart, and raised his jaw proudly.

Lin Dong laughed, "Yes."

Ye Batian said: "You want to go to the capital with us?"

"No..." Lin Dong shook his head, "I'm not going to the capital." He had just left there not long ago.

The two of them came out of the kitchen while they were talking. The big man in the kitchen still had a puzzled expression on his face. After the two of them left, he also touched the rice, smelled it, and muttered, "What's so good about this?"

When they returned to the lobby, Zang Feilong and Li Yan were still there.The rice bowls in front of the two of them were cleared away, and two cups of tea were set out and they drank slowly.

The sun came in from the outside, and there was an inexplicable peace.Lin Dong felt that he yearned for this kind of peace before, but now he really didn't want to see the face of Hidden Feilong.

He turned his head and walked upstairs, Zang Feilong turned his head when he heard the movement, saw it at a glance, and quickly got up to follow.

Ye Batian was still saying: "Hey, did you do something to Lin Dong?"

Zang Feilong frowned, "What do you mean?"

"He asked me where I was going, and he didn't seem to want to follow you anymore."

Zang Feilong clenched his fist and chased after him without saying a word.

Li Yan was curious, seeing Ye Batian sitting over to drink tea, he leaned over and asked, "Brother Ye... did you know them?"

"Well, it's an old acquaintance." Ye Batian said foolishly.

Li Yan sized Ye Batian up a few times. Although the young man's clothes were not bad, they couldn't be said to be very good either.He had always thought that the Lin family was a big family somewhere, and their identities would not be much different, but this old acquaintance didn't seem like that...

"Dare to ask... what does the Lin family do?"

Ye Batian raised his eyebrows, "Huh? I'm studying..."

"Oh! Could it be that it's the opening school?"

"I heard that a school is going to open." Ye Batian remembered that Ye Ying had written a letter before, saying that there was a movement in Zuoshantou camp recently, that a martial arts school was opened in Chima Town, and he became a bodyguard, etc...

These two people were completely at odds with each other, but they also chatted happily.

Li Yan asked some innocuous questions, and he probably had an idea in his mind. In short, these two people surnamed Lin did not come from unknown sources.

He asked again: "I don't know what kind of business does Brother Ye's family do?"

"Do..." Ye Batian thought for a long time, "It can be regarded as a business."

Li Yan nodded, feeling relieved, "I think of one thing that Brother Ye asked before."

"whats the matter?"

"You said you wanted to know where there are bad people around here..."

"Oh." Ye Batian became excited, "You know?"

"I don't know if it suits your taste." Li Yan smiled and said: "There is a small town on the edge of Yangzhou, where there is a wealthy local tyrant, but the owner of the family is a bully. The magistrate has a good relationship and has not been punished."

Ye Batian's mood suddenly decreased, "Shouldn't that be left to the heroes?"

"Hero?" Li Yan was puzzled.

"Eliminate the strong and help the weak." Ye Batian stretched out his hand and gestured, and dubbed in his mouth: "Hey! Bitch! Take your life!"

"..." Li Yan picked up his teacup and drank tea, and managed to hold back his smile before saying, "I thought Brother Ye was here to help the weak."

"I'm not that interested." Ye Batian rolled his eyes, "If I can get a lot of rewards if I capture that person, I can consider it."

Li Yan's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "This... really does exist."

……

The door was pushed open, Zang Feilong entered and asked, "Are you leaving?"

Lin Dong frowned, "I want to talk to you."

Seeing that he didn't answer, Zang Feilong's heart suddenly became aroused, and he didn't know why his viscera were hurting because of the suffocation.He didn't know what was going on, he rushed up and pressed Lin Dong's shoulder and asked, "You want to go?!"

"Why are you leaving? Didn't you agree to help me?"

"Is it true that you scholars all have this kind of virtue? Even I, an old man, know what it means to be a gentleman!"

Lin Dong's eardrums hurt from being yelled at by him, and his temper also came up, and he said angrily, "Why did you let him go!"

Zang Feilong was blocked at once, hesitatingly said: "I... just..."

"Just want me to be punished? So I don't dare to eat other people's food?" Lin Dong's face flushed red, his eyes stared like copper bells, "I believe you will follow his will! You failed Gained my trust!"

Zang Feilong felt his chest was punched hard, "I didn't expect him to..."

"Shouldn't you just hit it?" Lin Dong's eyes turned red, "Would you accept this humiliation for you!"

Seeing that his tears were about to fall, Zang Feilong panicked.Thick palms with calluses from long-term martial arts training awkwardly wiped Lin Dong's face.

"Don't cry... you... oh..."

Lin Dong was just emotional, and didn't want to shed tears, but after being told this, his nose felt sour, and big tears fell down one by one.

Inexplicably betrayed trust, inexplicably beaten and treated lightly.

The overlapping sadness finally vented out in a moment, he kicked his feet, but Zang Feilong didn't like his little chicken strength.I just feel like being tickled by someone, but I can only let it go.

"Hey... it hurts, it's okay, you can hit it, it's my mistake this time, let you beat it until you calm down."

Lin Dong inexplicably felt upset again. It looked like a daughter-in-law was having a relationship with a man.He stopped, turned to Zang Feilong with a blank look, and walked towards his own room. Zang Feilong followed and looked at him, "Are you still going?"

"Let's go." Lin Dong wiped his face and sniffed, "There is no trust between us. Without trust, no matter how small things can be done, let alone such a big thing."

Zang Feilong held him back, "No."

When Lin Dong turned around, he saw the man staring and frowning. He didn't know how to apologize, so he could only look at him like this.

"If you don't understand, we don't have to talk about it." Lin Dong shook off him, turned around and lay down on his bed.

Looking at his back, Zang Feilong felt that his hot face was pressed against his cold ass.

He, Zang Feilong, has never been angry like this before!What's the big deal about an imp?Let go!It's as if someone is asking for him!

The author has something to say: Make a fuss, make a fuss~~Da Feilong is an idiot~~ But there is no way, alas, spread your hands ╮(╯_╰)╭These two still have to get along. ~
