Master Sculptor

This was the best meal that Hongmu and Xiongwa had ever had when they grew up, bar none.

"Work when you are full! Build a new house!" Li Hanlin said with high spirits after drinking the last sip of soup.

After eating other people's food, naturally there is no reason to refuse.Hongmu and Xiongwa have a lot of experience in building houses.Without anyone's help, the two children have been looking for food, avoiding disasters, building houses, etc. since they were young, they have watched others do it, and then tried it step by step by themselves.This is also the reason why the two of them are so familiar with the herbal medicine for burns.The cruel reality has forged their strong self-care ability.

Li Hanlin said so, but he didn't expect them to help him much, after all, he was still a child.He took the saw he brought, fixed his injured big eye, and walked into a forest with the two of them.Of course it wasn't an ebony forest, he wouldn't be willing to use those good woods to build a house.

As soon as Xiongwa saw the saw in Li Hanlin's hand, his eyes sparkled, and he surrounded him and said, "This looks amazing!"

Li Hanlin smiled and said: "You can't come." Xiongwa is really too thin, only a little better than big eyes.

"Hmph!" Unconvinced, Baby Xiong swung his hands in a big circle, "I've used this before, and knocked down a tree this big, um, that's it." Baby Xiong pointed to the ebony forest.

Li Hanlin showed an unbelievable expression on his face, then he bent his fingers and flicked the bear's forehead, and said, "Children can't talk big." Where does he have the strength to saw down such a big tree?

Xiong Bao jumped anxiously, and said angrily: "Anyway, my sister and I will build a house for you, which is your reward for giving us a big meal!"

Li Hanlin stretched out his hand to touch his head, and said with a smile, "Good boy."

Xiong Bao jumped up in shock, his face flushed, and he quickly ran to hide behind Hong Mu.Li Hanlin was amused by his series of reactions.Hongmu looked curiously at Li Hanlin and then at Xiongwa, feeling something sprouting in her heart.

When Li Hanlin selected a tree and was about to strike, Xiongwa jumped out from behind Hongmu and shouted, "I'll come, I'll come!"

Li Hanlin didn't refuse him, and let him try it out to know how much he weighed.Xiong Bao took the saw, confidently climbed up the big tree in front of him, and began to cut branches suitable for building houses.Because of the intention of showing off, Xiong Bao worked very hard, and in three or two strokes, a lush tree was reduced to only the trunk and small branches.

The expression on Li Hanlin's face changed from a smile to astonishment. What he saw in the past two days has refreshed his world view countless times!If this child is allowed to grow up for another two years, and the nutrition is kept up, won't he become a strong man capable of carrying the weight?

Xiong Wa slid down from the tree and walked up to Li Hanlin triumphantly, with a look of "seeking praise".Li Hanlin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and gave him a thumbs up sincerely.Xiongwa was very happy, and immediately ran to Hongmu to show off, in exchange for Hongmu's contemptuous look.

Several people were busy for a while, and began to move the wood back.Some people came to help one after another, but Li Hanlin didn't say anything. These people wanted to use him to get close to the phoenix, or treat him as nothing. In short, he is currently too busy to take care of himself, let alone pay attention to these people.

Everyone picked up firewood, and the flames were high, and a bigger and stronger wooden house was built soon.Li Hanlin noticed that, except for Hongmu and Xiongwa, everyone else intentionally stayed away from Dayan, who was placed not far away by Li Hanlin'an to recuperate, but looked at Phoenix following him from time to time, with an expression of awe on his face.

"Why aren't you afraid of big eyes?" Li Hanlin asked Hongmu.

Hongmu said disdainfully: "What's there to be afraid of a brat, it's not made up by people to break the curse."

Li Hanlin raised his eyebrows: "You know it's fake?"

Hong Mu thought for a moment and said, "This curse is made of stone."

"Why do this?"

Hong Mu glanced at him and said, "He's hungry and wants to eat people."

Li Hanlin's hands and feet were suddenly cold, and his heart missed two beats.Later, Hongmu didn't need to say that he also wanted to get it. He made up such a thing and ate people who had looked directly at Big Eyes.It not only avoids being doubted by others, but also satisfies one's own ugly desires.Li Hanlin couldn't help shaking.What the eldest brother said is indeed true. This is a society that is not subject to the law, and desires are like wild beasts, enough to destroy human nature.

Li Hanlin took a deep breath, still unable to restrain his trembling hands and feet.

Hong Mu suddenly regretted speaking out, this person is a newcomer, how could he accept such dirty people for a while.From the first time she saw him, Hongmu knew that he was different from herself who lived here since she was a child. She was used to too many dirty and ugly things, just like maggots living in carrion, and she had long been aware of everything around her. Numb, or in other words, she has assimilated with this environment.Therefore, after seeing Shi Shi's behavior, she just frowned and turned away.

Li Hanlin stood for a while, then turned and left.Dayan closed his eyes and sat on a grass field waiting for him. It was still dark and there were still many people coming and going. Although everyone tried to avoid him as much as possible, Dayan still closed his eyes habitually.Li Hanlin had a sore nose and was on the verge of tears.Just because of such a scalp-numbing cause, the child shut himself up in the small room for ten years.

Li Hanlin quickly walked over to pick him up, and said softly, "Go home."

Hongmu looked at the big smiling eyes who were hugged in her arms, and suddenly felt that he and Li Hanlin were the same kind of people, because they still had a good side, which was something she had exhausted.

Hongmu looked at it quietly for a while, then called for Xiongwa.

"Why sister?" Xiongwa was enjoying building the house, sweating profusely, as if he had just been fished out of the water.

"gone."

"Let's go now? He also said that we should have dinner together!" Xiong Wa pointed to Li Hanlin's back.

Red didn't speak.Seeing the coldness in her pretty Danfeng eyes, Xiongwa fell silent, and had to leave behind Hongmu.

+ + + + + +

Li Hanlin returned to the new house with his eyes wide open, and Fenghuang, who followed closely behind, also wanted to squeeze in.Li Hanlin stood at the door, not planning to welcome guests.

"You can understand human speech, right?"

Suzaku chirped.

"What's the reason for following me? It's an old acquaintance calling once, calling twice for something you want from me, and calling three times for others."

Suzaku hastily called out.

"Then you may be mistaken."

Suzaku immediately thumped into Li Hanlin's arms.

Li Hanlin smoothed his hair for him, and pushed him out of the door when Suzaku raised his head comfortably, and closed the door behind him.Now he would take in other animals, but this phoenix is ​​different.He is regarded as a god, and he can't serve such a master.Once he did this because of his soft heart, it would definitely bring endless troubles.

Suzaku's mood suddenly fell from heaven to the bottom of the valley, and he let out a sharp neigh uncontrollably, and little sparks splashed out.

Li Hanlin's voice sounded at the right time: "If you breathe fire...hehe."

Suzaku's cry stopped abruptly.

Li Hanlin heaved a sigh of relief, this phoenix didn't show the wisdom it should have at all, which reassured him a lot.If he was more cunning, with his fire-breathing ability, Li Hanlin would really have nothing to do with him.

Li Hanlin re-medicated Da Yan, fed him dinner, and then packed his things.The phoenix outside the door did not move at all, and it was not known whether he had left or not.Big eyes looked at the door several times, as if he wanted to open the door to let him in.

"Want him to come in?" Li Hanlin stopped the wood chip he was tinkering with and asked.

"Well," Big Eye nodded, "It doesn't seem like it set fire on purpose, it's not a bad bird. And..."

"And what?"

"It's beautiful, I like it." Big eyes and a small face flushed.

Li Hanlin was thinking about how to explain to Big Eye when there was a knock on the door.Again and again, with no intention of stopping.

"I'll go and have a look." Li Hanlin walked over and opened the door a crack.

Seeing this, Suzaku was overjoyed, and hurriedly stuck his head in. Just as Li Hanlin was about to push him out, he saw the white fruit in his mouth, which was a lotus fruit.

Li Hanlin was taken aback, Suzaku immediately took the opportunity to sneak in the door, and put the lotus fruit in front of him flatteringly.Li Hanlin was amused by his stupidity, so he had no choice but to let him in.

Dayan saw Lianguo's eyes sparkling, ran to Suzaku and said, "Thank you."

Suzaku gave him a haughty grunt.

Li Hanlin also thanked him, and Suzaku immediately restrained his arrogance and called out happily.Li Hanlin touched him as a reward and asked him to play with Big Eye. He could see that Big Eye was very interested in this beautiful phoenix.

Suzaku looked at the naked villain (no clothes) in front of him, proudly raised his head.Not only was it hairless, but it was also shriveled, so ugly, Suzaku looked at the big eyes with disgust.How could Dayan know a bird's mind, he just kept turning around it, and because of his hand injury, he wanted to rub his face against it, but as soon as he got closer, Suzaku stretched out his slender legs The legs dodged.Big Eye thought it was playing with him, and immediately became happier.

Li Hanlin saw that one person and one bird were having fun, so he made the cards in his hands with peace of mind.There are some wooden blocks left over from building the house in the afternoon. He wants to process them into small cards for playing cards, and let several children play together tomorrow.

+ + + + +

Li Hanlin opened his eyes, and saw that the whole family was complete.

Li Hanzheng spoke first: "Why did you sleep for so long?"

Mother Lin said in a panic, "Han Lin, did something happen?"

Comrade Li Jianguo scolded as soon as he opened his mouth: "You bastard! Sleeping for so long has made the whole family uneasy!" Before he finished speaking, his eyes were red, "Your grandfather couldn't wake up when he fell asleep. ..”

"What are you talking about!" Lin's mother was angry, "Could this be the same thing? The old man has reached his age, so he went naturally. How old is Han Lin?"

This scene really echoed Li Hanzheng's words: our whole family will be nervous when you sleep.

Li Hanlin was so moved that he said, "Sit down, I have a big announcement to make."

A few people just sat down and listened to Li Hanlin's story, only to realize that it was only a waste of time to build a house, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with it." Li Hanlin saw his family's fearful appearance, so he dared to mention cannibalism.

Li Hanzheng suddenly asked, "Could the phoenix belong to Grandpa?" Although the fact that the wood carving turned into a living thing is too unimaginable, it is too coincidental to connect with the wood carving that Grandpa lost.

"That work still won an award. I searched the Internet, and there may be pictures from that year."

"Yes, yes, Hanzheng, I'm impressed by what you said. It's a bird! Is your grandfather still on its butt... or on its feet? Forget it, forget it! Anyway, it's covered in blood. You and your grandpa like each other, just engrave your name and you will recognize your relatives with blood, hehe."

Too much time passed, and Li Hanzheng couldn't find the pictures at that time, so he had to give up.However, Li Hanlin already had a vague guess in his heart. If the Phoenix mistook him for his grandfather, the matter seemed to make sense.But is it really possible to make woodcarving come alive?So, does he also have the chance to see his babies alive and kicking in front of him?

The author has something to say: 1. Comrade Li Hanlin is really not partial, and the three babies are equally painful.

2. The usage of "he" and "it" about Suzaku depends on whether the characters think it is just an animal.

3. Heiyan is not coming out so soon, there should be another chapter.Traffic is bad.

[The following is the interview time]

Cheng: What do you think about the upcoming meeting?

Li: I only like small animals and children, so big ones, no!

black:......
