Chapter 187: No crit in the lottery
She pursed her lips and took out the slingshot. When she noticed someone jumping onto the tree, she made a scratching sound and immediately hit him with the slingshot.
"Ah..." The man screamed and fell to the ground.
Shui Ling immediately ran over, took out a dagger and put it at the man's throat, "Who are you? Why are you following us?"
This man was wearing black attire, but was not masked. He looked to be in his twenties and quite handsome.
He held his injured shoulder and looked at Shui Ling in shock, "Do you know martial arts?"
Shui Ling stared at him coldly, "Why are you following us?"
Hu Tu couldn't help it anymore. There were no villagers here, so he pretended to have just woken up and looked back.
"Eh? Guard Lin?"
The young man said: "Sir."
Seeing that they knew each other, Shui Ling stood up, put away the dagger, and walked to Shui Zheran, his eyebrows lowered and his eyes narrowed, like a little kid with no power to restrain a chicken.
Guard Lin stood up and said, "I was ordered to find you, sir. I didn't expect that you would sacrifice your own life for the sake of the people. Lin admires me."
Shui Ling pursed his lips. It seemed that he didn't realize his secret.
Hu Tu sighed: "Although I am no longer the county magistrate, I can't care about the lives of the people I once led just because of this."
"What? Why is your Excellency no longer the county magistrate?" Guard Lin asked in surprise.
"Sigh... The prefect said that I ignored the people and ran away on my own, so he dismissed me from my official position. Don't mention it. I am doing well now. When I save money to buy a piece of land in the future, I can build a house by myself and open up some wasteland.
Can survive." Hu Tu began to suffer miserably.
Guard Lin's eyes flashed and he said, "I will tell the master the truth, so I'll take my leave now."
He glanced at Shui Ling and Shui Zheran before disappearing into the darkness.
Shui Zheran, "..." Secret guard? It shouldn't be so weak, right?
Hu Tu patted Shui Zheran on the shoulder and said, "Third brother, if it weren't for you, I might have died in the wilderness. How could I repay your kindness?"
Shui Zheran knew that he was an actor, so he smiled and said: "You are my sworn brother. You should live in my house or let my son take care of you in your old age. Let's go."
The three of them walked slowly back to the cozy little house. After entering, Hu Tu got down to the ground and rubbed his legs, "My mother, my legs are almost broken."
Shui Zheran suppressed his laughter and said, "Hurry up and take a hot bath and have a good rest for a few days."
"Well, I'm going to take a bath." Hu Tu walked to the bathroom holding his legs.
Shui Ling went back to the room, entered the space and asked the yellow star man, "Have you finished cleaning up the rocks there?"
Huang Xingren sent a depressed expression, "I accidentally hit it hard, and a big hole appeared on the ground. We are all in the plains, and it's not easy to demolish the east wall to repair the west wall."
Shui Ling thought it was something and said, "I just collected some soil here. The quality of the soil is good. I'll give it to you."
"Okay, the soil here is hard and there is a lack of soil." Huang Xingren was immediately happy.
Shui Ling traded the collected soil, and Huang Xingren praised: "The soil you have here is really good. It solved my big problem. By the way, I have white mushrooms here, which are like steamed buns. They taste pretty good.
I’ll give you a few baskets.”
Shui Ling got ten baskets of mushrooms, which looked like white mushrooms, but were much larger. The smallest one was as big as an adult's fist, and the largest one was as big as a rice bowl.
The mushrooms were hard and had white flesh when cut into pieces, with a special aroma. She fried a mushroom slice, which tasted crispy and delicious.
"That's good. I don't know if it can be planted. The plains... are probably land with rich grass roots, so these mushrooms won't be able to grow in the woods."
She was mumbling, and when she was carrying the dishes out, she saw Lin Jinhui and said, "Aunt Lin."
"Well, I smell something familiar, oh...really, where did you get this white jade mushroom?" Lin Jinhui grabbed a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes.
Shuiling raised her eyebrows, "Aunt Lin, do you know this mushroom?"
"Well, I have eaten salty ones. They are cut into slices and soaked in water, then marinated in salt. When eaten, they are soaked in water for a day and then fried. It is very fragrant, but it is not as fragrant as this." Lin Hui took several more mouthfuls.
I put down my chopsticks embarrassedly.
Shui Ling smiled and said, "You can eat it. This is stir-fried. I will study how to make it tomorrow. There are many good things in our mountains, and I was lucky enough to come across it."
Lin Jinhui said unceremoniously: "Okay, I'll eat it first. I haven't eaten this for a long time. It's said that you can grill it if you pick it fresh. Unfortunately, I haven't eaten it."
Shui Ling's eyes lit up and she smiled. After returning to her room, she entered the space, made meat skewers and mushroom skewers, and then grilled them at the door.
After Su Qin came in, he said, "I have enough here for one thousand, do you want to draw a lottery?"
"Okay." Shui Ling nodded.
Su Qin looked at Shuiling grilling meat at the door, frowned and said, "We still have to open a rest area, and then the barbecue will be grilled in the rest area."
Shui Ling nodded, "Isn't there a shared rest area? And two out of ten..." She shut up again.
Drawing ten times in a row may not necessarily unlock it.
Su Qin went to find Shui Zheran, and the three of them started drawing money in the yard.
"Mushroom greenhouse, sea locator, deep sea diving suit large, deep sea diving suit medium, deep sea diving suit small, sea fishing rod set, sea fishing pontoon, house unlock, land expansion volume."
Su Qin took a deep breath and said, "These are all things your father wants."
Shui Ling picked up the land expansion volume and asked doubtfully: "What is this? It appears for the first time."
Su Qin nodded, "Yeah, I haven't seen it either."
Shui Zheran urged: "Hurry up and open a shared rest area, and we can move the barbecue over there."
He is very happy now. He has fishing supplies and will go fishing another day.
Su Qin rolled his eyes at him and opened the public rest area, including the lawn in the upper left corner of the villa.
There are tables and chairs in the corner, and the grapevines have grown a lot, with big black grapes hanging on them.
Shuiling picked one and tasted it, "Hey...it's a seedless grape. It's difficult to reproduce it."
Su Qin smiled and said: "Just take cuttings, but this sweet and sour wine would be good."
Shui Zheran set up the grill on the lawn, put the grilled meat skewers on a plate on the table, "Try it."
Shuiling picked up a bunch of mushrooms and took a bite. They were soft on the outside and crispy on the inside, with a stronger umami flavor. They were delicious.
"Mom, where's the mushroom house? I'll cultivate the mushrooms."
Su Qin took out the mushroom house and placed it on the table. The initial shapes of the prizes were square boxes.
Shui Ling looked at it and became depressed, "Mom, why can it only be used here and not taken outside?"
"Huh? I don't know either," Su Qin said.
Shui Zheran was concerned about another thing, "Where's the critical attack?"
Shui Ling and Su Qin looked at each other, yes, what about the critical hit? If there is no critical hit, then why do you need to draw it ten times in a row?
