Chapter 197
Looking at the girl who seemed to be in a daze forever, Lu Lin could inexplicably feel from her footsteps and the movement of her eyes that she should be quite happy today.
Lu Lin always felt that he could gradually feel some subtle changes in her emotions.
Then suddenly, Lu Lin had an idea.
His eyes turned to Li Mi's hand holding his sleeve.
He suddenly became curious, what would her reaction be if he held Li Mi's hand?
Although Lu Lin and Li Mi had been together for such a long time, they had actually done more intimate or even cross-border actions.
But this kind of interaction and contact, sometimes it is not about how close the contact is, or how much physical contact there is, but more important is the mentality and atmosphere.
For example, when Li Mi was in the worst state, Lu Lin even had to help her take a bath.
If this kind of contact has happened before, just holding hands seems to be nothing.
And Lu Lin has held Li Mi's hand in the past.
But...
In today's atmosphere, this ordinary action made Lu Lin's heart beat faster for no reason.
Even because of nervousness, Lu Lin stared at Li Mi's hand for a long time, but couldn't make up his mind.
But just when Lu Lin was hesitant, Li Mi's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Lu Lin was stunned for a moment, looked up, and found that Li Mi was staring at him at this moment.
At that moment, Lu Lin panicked.
There was no reason to panic, and there was no need to panic, but Lu Lin was like a young boy whose little thoughts were seen through, and his face suddenly blushed.
And the next moment, Li Mi's hand holding his sleeve loosened.
At that moment, Lu Lin felt a thump in his heart.
But before he could react, a soft and warm touch came from his palm.
Lu Lin looked at the hand holding his own, and was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
He looked up at Li Mi.
If it were someone else, they would think that Li Mi's face was still expressionless as always.
But Lu Lin could feel that Li Mi was smiling.
That smile was sweet, making Lu Lin's already accelerated heartbeat even faster.
Scratching his feverish cheek with his left hand, Lu Lin pretended to look away casually.
But the right hand holding Li Mi was tightly clasped with the soft and warm hand.
Fingers interlocked.
Chapter 322 What is the value of the all-round immortal species?
"I say, what is this..."
The next morning, Lu Lin stood in the martial arts training ground on the back of a large earth dragon, his mouth twitching.
In front of him, there was a full set of magic mechanical processing equipment and metal smelting and forging equipment.
"Didn't you say you wanted to buy something you wanted? I just bought some," Xiu Linsi said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"You call this just buying some?" Lu Lin spread his hands, his head full of question marks, "You have enough to build a whole magic mechanical workshop, okay?!"
"Then what I wanted to buy was a magic mechanical workshop," Xiu Linsi put her hands on her waist, "so I bought it, no problem, right?"
"This..." Lu Lin's mouth twitched again, "But, this is too exaggerated, the martial arts training ground is full at once, where do you let Tiezhu move around normally?"
"This place is too small for him, hasn't he been running outside during this period?" Xiu Linsi said, "As for static exercise, you can find a bigger room to set up later, don't you think it's a waste to use such a large area as an indoor sports field? And, my dear teacher Lu, don't you think it's cool to bring a magic mechanical workshop with you when you already have an alchemy workshop?"
"Damn it, but I clearly remember that you came to learn alchemy from me," Lu Lin's face was full of black lines.
"I've changed my mind," said Xiulinsi, "I think magic machinery is more suitable for me. Anyway, I can learn anything. With these things, I can make some equipment for us."
Looking at Xiulinsi with a firm look in his eyes, Lu Lin suddenly didn't know what to say.
He felt like he had seen a ghost. How come he could meet people interested in firearms everywhere?
So why was this thing swept into the trash can of history?
Oh, no.
Think about it carefully, one of the people who is interested in this thing is the most unreliable queen in the history of the night elves, and the other is a famous all-round eccentric of the Infinite Church. It seems that neither of them can represent the mainstream history.
So, it seems reasonable that only guys with peculiar personalities will be interested in this kind of thing.
"Come to think of it, do you also have the foundation of blacksmithing and magic machinery?" Lu Lin suddenly remembered something.
"Of course, I have advanced levels in both of these," Xiulinsi said, "Although it is impossible for me to help you build any magic weapons, it is no problem for me to maintain the things here and take care of your equipment, including your staff and that witch's staff. I can also take care of them and make them better."
"Besides, my dear teacher Lu, you should have a rough idea of how much this pile of equipment is worth, right?"
"I built such a workshop for our Dilong at my own expense, and also provided us with related services for free. What do you think, you must have made a lot of money this time, right?"
"Okay, I admit, it is indeed the case," Lu Lin nodded, "Then, my good student, what is the price?"
"My good teacher, how can I ask for a price from you as a student?" Xiulinsi said with a smile, "As long as you draw me more design drawings of this kind of things in your mind, I will be satisfied. ...Ah, the other thing is that I may be busier here in the future. If there is nothing urgent, I may not be free to handle chores such as materials..."
"Okay, okay, I understand," Lu Lin let out a sigh of relief.
In fact, he didn't expect Xiulinsi to always be at his mercy.
After all, this person's identity is quite special. It is said that he is an apprentice to him, but in fact it is more like a relationship similar to trading and cooperation.
Lu Lin provided some of his unique knowledge, and Xiulinsi would help Lu Lin with some help in return. At the same time, she also maintained the relationship between Lu Lin and the Boundless Church.
Her willingness to call Lu Lin "teacher" has given Lu Lin enough respect.
After all, in terms of level, Lu Lin is not even a master, so being this teacher is really a bit forced.
In this situation of relatively equal status, it is somewhat unrealistic to expect Xiulinsi to really work hard all day long like a humble apprentice.
It was actually expected by Lu Lin that she would come up with such an idea.
It can even be said that the situation is much better than Lu Lin expected.
The various magical equipment on the back of Lulin Earth Dragon are still relatively new, so there have been no problems that require repair and maintenance. However, as time goes by in the future, various problems will always occur with these equipment and machinery.
It is indeed a good thing for Lu Lin to have someone who can always accompany him and help with free maintenance and repairs.
Moreover, Xiulinsi was willing to find things to do on her own, which saved Lu Lin the trouble of thinking about the teaching content.
In short, except for suddenly occupying the sports field, this thing is almost all good.
Thinking of this, Lu Lin finally nodded and said, "Okay, it's up to you. I'll find someone to slightly modify this house in a while and turn it into a workshop for you."
Hearing what Lu Lin said, Xiulinsi seemed very happy and said that Lu Lin didn't need to find anyone at all.
Because she can do the transformation alone.
Whether it is decoration, waterproofing, sound insulation, heat insulation, ventilation systems, or the engraving of various magic circles and the configuration of indoor magic machinery, she can do it all.
This is the gold content of the immortal species' super all-round talent, and Lu Lin really can't resist it.
Even Lu Lin always had the illusion that he might be the one who should be the apprentice.
After settling the matter on Xiulinsi's side, Lu Lin went to check on the situation of the others.
Lan Jie bought a bunch of high-end ingredients, especially various sun-dried delicacies from the mountains and seas. It seems that the quality of the food in the coming days should be very guaranteed.
Silly bought some materials that can be used for refining potions and witchcraft, as well as two new tabletop games. Judging from this, I guess she is still a little tired of playing chess all the time. Maybe next time Will play something new.
Jack Zhengyi, after replenishing his medicinal bath inventory, spent the remaining money on the two little girls, buying them a lot of clothes and daily necessities, as well as some training equipment suitable for them.
The two little girls are also quite interesting. Nuanyang spent money to buy a lot of things for Mingyue, including all kinds of snacks and toys, and spent all the money Lu Lin gave her.
But Mingyue was the complete opposite. She didn't spend a penny, she saved all her money, and she didn't take much of what Nuanyang bought her.
Lu Lin was originally a little worried that she had something on her mind, but after getting to know her, she seemed to be like this. She was reluctant to wear or eat anything on weekdays. She probably lived too many hard times, and now she is a bit excessive. frugal.
As for the iron pillar.
It can only be said that with Tie Zhu's current intelligence level, it is still a bit too difficult for him to go shopping on the street by himself.
Jack Justice helped him buy some food, and then customized some clothes and a set of light armor for him. At least judging from the results, he seemed to like it quite a lot.
Then there are ferrets.
In a sense, it is richer than Lu Lin, and it can go to the school to purchase goods at any time, so it has not bought anything in the past two days. It has been running around the city the whole time. Lu Lin does not know what it is doing. Well, but he was probably looking for fun at the expense of two unlucky gangs.
I just don’t know what tricks it will bring to these two gangs this time.
Finally, let’s talk about Nanxi...
Nanjiu didn’t buy anything.
Lu Lin didn't give him any money either.
It's not that he was deliberately targeting him or anything, it's just that this guy has too little sense of existence. He is like a shrub growing on the head of a dragon on the earth, and people often subconsciously ignore his existence.
Lu Lin really forgot about him at that time, and didn't even remember that he was there until before setting off.
Fortunately, this brother himself is indeed free from desires and needs. He has a kind of transcendent beauty that is unique to Dryads. It makes people feel that not only Lu Lin subconsciously regards him as a tool, but also himself. Treat yourself as a tool.
It seems that I really don't think about anything all day long. I just do whatever Lu Lin says. I just quietly wait for the time to work for Lu Lin to end, so that I can go to Ebo to learn photography.
I just don't know whether Ebo will fulfill this promise at that time.
After confirming that everyone's situation is fine, Lu Lin and others left Ken'ermier and set out on the road to the headquarters of the Tianri Sect.
When their team walked out of the city gate and disappeared at the end of the road, on the wall of Ken'ermier, a man dressed as a disciple of the Tianri Sect put down his monocular glasses.
"Hmph, Bang Luo, you said nice things when you left, but you really regretted it..."
He sneered, and then, accompanied by a wave of magic power, a red bird appeared on his shoulder.
He took out a roll of paper that he had prepared long ago and put it into the small bamboo tube on his leg.
The bird cried, and then flapped its wings, and instantly turned into a stream of light and flew away.
Chapter 323: The sun's brilliance is eventually covered by dust
"You want to know about the Tianri Cult?"
Si Li's expression was a little strange.
"I say, shouldn't we ask that bald guy about this? He's the one who knows the most, right?"
"Of course I asked," Lu Lin said helplessly, "but Jack didn't seem to want to talk, and he only said that he would introduce me."
"Oh, our good guy who always answers questions has become autistic?" Si Li touched his chin, "It seems that the situation may not be that simple..."
"What was the specific situation when Jack left the Tianri Cult?" Lan Jie asked on the side, "I remember that he killed a high-ranking official for the people in a certain village?"
"It seems that the high-ranking official colluded with gang members to kill the people in the village," Lu Lin added, "but Jack didn't say more details."
"This matter is already a heart disease for him, and I don't think he will mention it too much," Si Li said, "But this matter is a big deal, and I have also specially checked the relevant information before. Don't say it, you may have asked the right person."
"Thank you for your help, Si Li, tell me quickly, and I will make a chess set for you that you have never played before," Lu Lin said. "Hmm? You can do this?" Si Li was a little surprised, "It's not something you came up with on the spur of the moment, right?"
"I promise not, military chess, checkers, gobang, chess, go, beast chess, I know a lot here," Lu Lin said, "Don't forget, I'm from another world, don't you want to play chess played by people from another world?"
"Not a bad deal, then I'll gladly accept it," Si Li's mouth corners slightly raised, "But, I should have told you about this, even if you didn't come to ask me today, I would have found a time to tell you in the next two days."
"From what you hear, it seems like there's a big problem?" Lan Jie asked.
"More or less, at least the bald man's situation is far less trivial than he said on the surface," Si Li shrugged, "Or... he's the only one who doesn't realize how eye-catching he is now."
"Is it because the person he killed is too powerful?" Lu Lin asked.
"He is indeed a big shot," Si Li said, "The one who died was a director elder."
"Director elder?" Lu Lin asked in confusion, "Is he at the same level as his master?"
"No, his master is a town elder, one level higher than a director elder," Si Li said, "The structure of the Tianri Cult is relatively complex, and members are divided into status and seniority. For example, 'Bang Luo' is a title for seniority, while 'elder' is a title based on status."
"There are four types of elders in the Tianri Cult, the highest level is 'town elder', and they must be of a high enough seniority and strong enough strength. It is said that there are only a few dozen people who can take up the post, and they are all old monsters with top strength. "
"The second level is the 'Council Elders', which are relatively large in number, with dozens of people. This level is also considered the top level of the Tianri Sect. They often have considerable power and also have requirements for seniority and strength, but the requirements are not as high as those for the 'Town Elders'. There are also people with high seniority but relatively weak strength, or people with strong strength but not so seniority. In addition, people who have achieved success in logistics management or craftsmanship are also possible. "
