Chapter 37 The Familiar Scarecrow
Lin Xing prepared some materials, including a hammer, straw, nails, wooden boards, rope, some cloth, and a broken straw hat.
First, he nailed two planks of wood into a cross.
Next, he made clothes.
Of course he didn't do it himself, there was a magic needle that did it for him.
Red cloth is used for shirts, khaki cloth is used for pants, black cloth is used for shoes, and white cloth is used for gloves.
"Here comes the needle!"
Lin Xing summoned the magic needle and described the shirt, pants, shoes, and gloves twice in his mind.
"action!"
The inscription on the magic needle flashed and moved in front of Lin Xing.
Wherever it goes, it cuts and sews fabric quickly.
In less than five minutes, the red shirt, khaki pants, black shoes, and white gloves were ready.
Lin Xing took a sip of spiritual water to regain his energy. He inspected the clothes, his face full of admiration.
"The work is so good, impeccable! It can be worn by others."
Lin Xing had the urge to wear them just looking at them, but the style of these clothes was different from what he usually wore.
He liked to wear casual clothes, so he gave up and decided to dress the scarecrow.
Lin Xing put his shirt and pants on the cross and started stuffing straw inside.
After stuffing it with straw, the clothes bulged up like a human being.
Lin Xing tied up his shirt and trousers with ropes, filled his shoes with straw, and used a magic needle to sew the shoes to the trousers.
The gloves are also stuffed with straw and small wooden sticks. The finished effect looks like five fleshy fingers.
"Very good, the body is finished, only the head is missing."
Lin Xing initially planned to use straw as his head, but when he saw the body looked so realistic, he immediately felt that the straw was unreal.
"If that doesn't work, just make a cloth face like other people make puppets and stuff straw inside."
Lin Xing did it as soon as he thought of it. It was not him who did it anyway, he had a magic needle.
"What should this face look like?"
Lin Xing couldn't help but picture his grandfather's kind face in his mind.
Following his imagination, the magic needles weaved in and out of the cloth, embroidering human facial features.
Lin Xing was surprised when he saw it.
This face is very similar to his grandfather's.
He stuffed straw into his hood. After the face became plump and three-dimensional, it became more like him.
Lin Xing asked the magic needle to sew the straw hat onto his head, and a scarecrow was completed.
Standing further away to look at the straw, Lin Xing was startled.
Isn't this grandpa?
Unlike Lin Xing's handsome appearance, his grandfather's facial features were weird and ugly, which was one of the reasons why he did not marry a wife.
When Lin Xing saw this scarecrow that looked so much like his grandfather, his eyes started to heat up.
If it were anyone else, you might find this scarecrow that looks like a real person scary.
But in Lin Xing's eyes, it was a true reproduction of his grandfather, which made him feel very close to him.
"Although grandpa is no longer here, he can still continue to guard the orchard, as if he is still with me."
Lin Xing felt that he was doing the right thing as a scarecrow.
He picked up the scarecrow, planted it next to one of the guava trees, and tied two red plastic bags to its hands.
When the wind blows, the plastic bags will flutter, and the birds will think that someone is moving and will not dare to come over.
After finishing one scarecrow, Lin Xing followed the same pattern and made four more.
There are five in total, inserted in the five corners of the guava tree.
After you clear out the fruits on the guava side, you can take the scarecrows to the peach tree and insert them.
“From a distance, it looks really human.
If someone accidentally breaks in here at night and sees the scarecrow, they might be frightened to the point of peeing."
This is the result Lin Xing wants to see.
After we finished making the scarecrow, the sun was shining in the sky and the weather was getting hotter.
"We're done, let's go down the mountain."
Lin Xing received a call on the way down the mountain. He thought it was from Sister Hua, but it turned out that it was Li Qingyi.
"Teacher Li, what do you want from me?"
Li Qingyi said cheerfully: "Xiao Lin, the honeysuckle you delivered to me that day tasted very good to me. I have been drinking it for the past few days and found that my throat is much better.
I went to the hospital this morning to have a careful examination with a doctor, including a laryngoscope. The doctor said that my throat was not inflamed or swollen and that it was just a normal throat.
In the past, I tried all kinds of methods to treat chronic pharyngitis, including Chinese and Western medicines. I tried everything I could, but it just couldn't get better.
Unexpectedly, everything healed all of a sudden.
I thought about it, I haven’t taken any other medicine recently, I just drank the honeysuckle water you gave me.
In other words, the honeysuckle you planted has cured my old illness for many years. I am so happy.
Xiaolin, thank you so much!"
Lin Xing was also happy for Li Qingyi after hearing this. He knew that the quality of honeysuckle watered with spiritual water would be greatly improved, but he never expected that the medicinal properties would be so good.
The effect of spiritual water is so strong that it can make the medicinal effects of plants even better.
Li Qingyi continued to say happily: "Xiao Lin, after you gave me the guavas that night, are you free?"
Lin Xing said: "Nothing special."
Li Qingyi warmly invited you: "Then I invite you to come to my salon. There will be a buffet to eat and there will be programs to watch.
Don't refuse, just think of it as me thanking you."
Lin Xing Congshan Ruliu said: "Okay, Teacher Li."
Li Qingyi suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Xiaolin, do you have a girlfriend?"
Lin Xing didn't know why Li Qingyi suddenly asked this question, but he still said truthfully: "Teacher Li, I don't have a girlfriend."
Li Qingyi said regretfully: "Such a nice guy doesn't have a girlfriend.
There are some female students with good conditions at my salon, and I will introduce you to them when the time comes."
When Lin Xing wanted to refuse, Li Qingyi hung up the phone without explanation.
"That's it, it's settled, see you in Yazhu Garden then."
Lin Xing had a look of helplessness on his face.
"Elders really like to set up connections for single men and women. When the time comes, just be perfunctory."
When Lin Xing walked to the door of his house, he found that the door of his house was a little busy.
Two cars, a van and a luxury car.
He felt a little familiar.
"The Porsche with four wheels and seven wheels is Brother Long's car."
Brother Long is the one who asked Lin Xing to make red underwear.
Lin Xing couldn't help but smile.
Two days ago, Brother Long sent him a message, asking him how many guavas he still had, and saying that he would come over and buy some more from him sometime.
He's really here.
"Fortunately, I picked more than a hundred guavas, so he has them in stock if he wants to buy them."
Lin Xing saw Brother Long and Zhao Sanmu sitting under the tree chatting from a distance. He quietly took out two bags of guavas from the magic needle space and held them in his hands.
