When the convoy of five Humvees arrived in Semporna, it was exactly eight o'clock in the evening.
It was already night, and the city was pitch dark, so the convoy did not enter the city, but stayed in the woods in the southern suburbs for the whole night.
This is close to the hunting place, and the risk of being attacked is not small.
Therefore, for the vigil tonight, Lin Shuo had to come by himself.
This matter is normal for Lin Shuo, but it really needs a little willpower these two days.
Before going to bed tonight, Dylan was still lying on the window of the car, seducing him with his eyes.
My little daughter-in-law can't get enough of it no matter how much she feeds her.
It was already midnight by this time, and everyone in the convoy had fallen asleep, and there was only one person and one bird on watch.
Lin Shuo and Lin Xiaoba.
Xiao Ba has been quite honest these two days, he really looks like he has reformed himself and become a bird again, and he doesn't usually go out to roam.
But obviously this kind of life style, this bird is not so used to it, it is listless and doesn't talk much on weekdays.
This made Lin Shuo think it was a problem.
The life of a bird is the same as the life of a human being, and it pays attention to its spirit.
The difference between birds and humans is that there is no need to use human ethics to restrain birds.
Now that Lin Xiaoba's greatest hobby has been deprived, this bird is like being locked in a cage.
If the Lin family's black phoenix lost that vigor, it might affect her hunting state, and her lifespan might be shortened.
In the past, Lin Shuo didn't like Xiaoba to go out wandering. Firstly, he was afraid that he would not know how to restrain himself, waste too much energy, and be prone to accidents when hunting. Second, he was a decent person, and his bird had to follow him no matter what happened.
Don't look back and leave people with the impression that every bird must have its owner, and it will affect your search for a partner. After all, it is hard to find a good match for the Lin family.
Now that Lin Shuo has two daughters-in-law, the worries about finding a partner are gone.
So Lin Shuo weighed the pros and cons again, and said, "Xiaoba, otherwise, let's make a rule."
"Brother Shuo, tell me." Standing on Lin Shuo's shoulder, Lin Xiaoba said while arranging his feathers with his beak.
"In the future, as long as we finish a deal, I won't restrict you whether you should go out or go out for a while. It's just that the time to go out, let's decide. You can see how many days are suitable."
Xiao Ba was silent for a while, then turned his head: "Okay, brother Shuo, don't test me, I am very determined this time."
Lin Shuo smiled: "You have to think clearly, this is the only chance for us to discuss. There is no such shop after this village."
"I think it will take seven days." Lin Xiaoba said, "Look, you have to understand the situation in that forest first, then choose a target, and then beat off the mother bird's mate..."
"Okay, okay." Lin Shuo waved his hand, "I don't want to know the details so clearly, so as not to be shocked. If you say seven days, it will be seven days."
"Really?" Lin Xiaoba was obviously overjoyed.
"of course it's true."
"Hey, Brother Shuo, you are so kind to me." Xiao Ba fluttered his wings, "In this case, I have to think about Brother Shuo."
Lin Shuo froze for a moment: "What do you mean?"
"Two days ago, when you were doing business with the stupid woman, I was listening to the wall." Lin Xiaoba lowered his voice when he said this, "Brother Shuo, I have a trick that you must like."
"What trick?" Lin Shuo looked defensive.
"Collecting beauties doesn't have to be so complicated, you have to take Lin Xiaojiu around with you, a stupid woman." Lin Xiaoba said, "I have to think about you, brother Shuo, when Xiaoba is happy, I'm going out When I was in the waves, I hugged the grass and beat the rabbits, and I collected them for Brother Shuo by the way. Isn’t it just a few hairs, simple.”
"Don't, don't, don't." Lin Shuo shook his head.
"Why?" Lin Xiaoba said, "You don't agree to such a good thing, Brother Shuo, did you get squeezed dry by a stupid woman two days ago, and you lost your temper?"
"That's not true." Lin Shuo said, "I simply don't trust your aesthetics. It is said that dog's eyes look down on people, but I don't think your bird's eyes are so accurate. Who knows what kind of things you will bring back later. , it scared me out of my wits at night."
"Hey, that's easy, you ask." Lin Xiaoba said, "Brother Shuo, tell me, what do you like?"
"What's the point of saying this kind of thing." Lin Shuo rolled his eyes at Lin Xiaoba, "It's the same as listening to a song. I suddenly heard a song in a restaurant and cafe, and I felt quite emotional. When you go home and find that song to listen to later, that feeling will be gone.
The same is true for eating, you don't know what to eat, depending on the chef's mood, there will be surprises.
Every time I order the dishes according to my own order, it will be a little less romantic. "
"Brother Shuo, I understand." Lin Xiaoba nodded.
"What do you unserstand?"
"You are Mensao." Lin Xiaoba said, "Since you have that bit of evil fire, and you still like to hold it, it is best to accept it passively."
Lin Shuo was speechless for a while, so he lifted Xiao Ba off his shoulders and rubbed his hands together: "You know a lot as a bird..."
"Brother Shuo! Don't be like this! Brother Shuo!"
The two brothers were arguing, when the sound of the car door next to them moving, Cotillard rubbed her eyes and pursed her lips, walked over to Lin Shuo, and sat down on the ground.
The little girl's action was very sudden, Lin Shuo looked at her straight, not daring to speak, and at the same time pinched Xiao Ba's beak.
He thought to himself what if the child was sleepwalking. The old people said that sleepwalkers should not be frightened.
Then I heard Cotillard say: "Brother, I can't sleep."
Lin Shuo breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, it's not just about sleepwalking, so he asked, "You are at the age when you snooze, why can't you fall asleep?"
"I had a nightmare two nights ago." Cotillard said falteringly, "I haven't been able to sleep well since then."
"What nightmare?" Lin Shuo said, "Tell me about it. I have learned how to interpret dreams, so I will explain it to you. Once you untie it, you should be able to sleep in the future."
Lin Shuo does know a little bit about dream interpretation, the old man taught him.
This is not a serious ability at all, but it captures people's psychological hints and uses quackery.
It’s okay to cheat money and sex, and it’s okay to understand people’s hearts. There is no right or wrong in ability itself, it mainly depends on whether the people who use this ability are righteous or not.
"Oh." Cotillard responded, and then remained silent for a long time.
The two were sitting side by side, Lin Shuo didn't look at Cotillard's face, the girl was silent, he thought she was asleep.
Turning his head and looking, he was not asleep at all, his eyes were not closed, but he was hesitant to speak, as if he was embarrassing something, his face was quite red.
Lin Shuo's heart skipped a beat, thinking that what this girl did in the first two days could not be a dream
Then it was Meng Lang who said that just now.
If she really told the content of the spring dream, how should she interpret this dream
This is outrageous between siblings!
So Lin Shuo said, "It's okay, if it's inconvenient to talk about it, that's fine. In fact, there are many ways for people to fall asleep. I have a way for you to listen to..."
Lin Shuo was about to take the subject off the topic, but Cotillard said, "Actually, there is nothing we can't talk about between me and brother. That's it. I saw myself in a dream the night before yesterday."
As soon as the little girl said these words, her voice was not loud, but in Lin Shuo's ears, there was a flat thunder.
People just can't lose their hearts.
The night before yesterday, when Lin Shuo was doing business with his wife, Di Lan turned into Cotillard.
At that time, Dylan had long crimson hair, and he was yelling brotherly.
Lin Shuo seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and the energy of sacrificing one's life was the same when he was hunting.
With such a thing in his heart, Lin Shuo felt uneasy when he heard what Cotillard said.
Could it be that this girl really saw it
Lin Shuo was speechless at the moment, but under the agitation of his mind, his hands relaxed.
Xiao Ba was liberated now, and the bird flopped onto Cotillard's shoulder: "Sister, tell Second Brother, how did you see yourself?"
Lin Xiaoba is Lin Shuo's brother, and Cotillard is Lin Shuo's righteous sister, so in front of Cotillard, Xiaoba regards himself as the second brother.
Cotillard was honest, and didn't care about the actual age of the bird, so she just recognized the head.
The female knight sighed, her whole face was like a red apple, and she murmured, "I seemed to wake up in the middle of the night, and I seemed to be dreaming, and I couldn't tell. In a car by myself, with my brother."
Lin Xiaoba was invigorated as soon as he heard it: "Tell me in detail, how did you get together?"
Lin Shuo quickly brought Xiao Ba over again, pinching its beak with two fingers.
Can't get the bird to talk anymore.
"Brother." Cotillard hugged her knees with both hands, lowered her head and put her face on her knees, and looked sideways at Lin Shuo, "Tell me, was I dreaming?"
"It must be a dream." Lin Shuo didn't dare to look at her, and said firmly.
"Oh." Cotillard said softly, "It is said that people dream every day and dream at night, so help me explain, what does my dream mean?"
Hearing this, the hairs on Lin Shuo's whole body exploded.
While my whole body was chilling, I felt that I was being roasted in the fire.
Even on the Red Desert, facing the unknown Black Queen, Lin Shuo was not as flustered as he is now.
It's still easy to think about people.
Don't look at Cotillard's usual carefree appearance, it seems that she is still in love, but she is already a twenty-four-year-old girl.
People are pretending to be confused, and I really think she is confused.
Now the meaning inside and outside the words could not be more obvious.
Things have been messed up, and the girl is asking for an explanation.
The so-called dreaming is just to cover up a little embarrassment for each other.
It's a pity that the matter has come to this point, but Lin Shuo can't admit it, because he has a promise with his wife.
For Lin Shuo, this is a chess game that has already been checked.
Because since Cotillard has seen that scene, then either the relationship is confirmed, or she will never see her again.
Simple brothers and sisters will definitely not be able to do it.
Lin Shuo glanced at the car next to him with a complicated expression.
In that car, Dylan fell asleep.
Thinking about it now, she knew that Cotillard was sleeping nearby, but she turned into Cotillard's appearance, it was not without reason.
The second lady is amazing, it is because she sees that Cotillard is by her side, she is still not at ease, and she wants to avoid future troubles forever.
Lin Shuo could only sigh, and said softly, "Gordia, dreams are reversed."
Hearing Lin Shuo's answer, Cotillard's beautiful eyes soon became steamy. She turned her face away, sniffed and said, "I see."
Lin Shuo felt like his whole body was falling apart, and he couldn't lift up his strength, not even the strength to speak.
"Brother." Cotillard said again, "I've thought about it. After all, I'm a knight of the Knights Hospitaller. I can't ignore the missions in the hospital. I still have to go."
"Um."
"Brother, I'm leaving."
"good."
…
Looking at the back of Cotillard who left overnight, until that crimson short hair completely disappeared into the night, Lin Shuo still couldn't recover for a long time.
After recovering, Lin Shuo regretted it again.
Why didn't he stop her
How could she go such a long way for such a blind person
This girl still gets lost at every turn.
The car doors on both sides slammed again, and Wei Xingshan, Miao Chengyun, and Chu Hongyi got out of the car.
Chu Hongyi nodded at Lin Shuo, and then followed in the direction where Cotillard left with a sway of his body.
It seems that he is also worried, and wants to secretly protect a section.
Wei Xingshan and Miao Chengyun sat next to Lin Shuo, one on the left and one on the right.
"If you don't sleep at night, is it interesting to eavesdrop on people's conversations?" Lin Shuo looked at the two guys beside him, and was furious.
"Since I feel aggrieved, it's okay to throw fire at my brother." Miao Chengyun said with a smile.
Without saying a word, Wei Xingshan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and handed two cigarettes to Lin Shuo and Miao Chengyun.
The three lit up their cigarettes and puffed away silently.
After smoking half a cigarette, Miao Chengyun said: "This matter, it's really your own carelessness."
"That's right, there's so much movement at night, who doesn't know?" Wei Xingshan scolded, "What's the car shaking like?"
"That means we don't have the face to take a closer look at your car." Miao Chengyun said, "But Godia, a little girl, has never experienced this. She is curious. I saw it with my own eyes. She secretly ran over to take a look at it. Take a look."
"Second Master, this is Jiang Taigong fishing, those who wish to take the bait." Wei Xingshan nodded with admiration, "Tall, really tall."
Lin Shuo said dejectedly, "You two came out just to stab me in the heart? Let me slow down with half a cigarette, and then hold it down?"
"That's definitely not the case." Miao Chengyun smiled, "Your second wife, Di Lan, is just a chick in love.
As a master who has been in love for many years, in my opinion, this girl, Cotillard, can't really run away until now. "
Lin Shuo rolled his eyes, not wanting to talk to this guy.
"People, in the field of love, you are not afraid of anything else, but you are afraid of not being reconciled." Miao Chengyun explained, "Think about it for yourself, will she be reconciled when Cotillard leaves?"
"That's definitely not reconciled." Wei Xingshan said, "Why do you let a fake replace yourself?"
"That's right." Miao Chengyun said, "So Lin Shuo, don't panic, this girl will come back sooner or later, she can't run away."
"At that time..." Wei Xingshan said, covering his face, "I don't dare to think about this scene. Anyway, you can take care of yourself, Lao Lin."
The two guys beside Lin Shuo were singing together, and they were talking vigorously, when they heard Dylan's voice from the car next to him:
"What are you mumbling about at night? Why don't you go back to sleep?!"
Miao Chengyun and Wei Xingshan were so frightened that their whole bodies trembled, they quickly put out the cigarette butts and stood up.
Before leaving, Miao Chengyun patted Lin Shuo on the shoulder, and pouted in the direction of Di Lan's car: "Look, are you out of breath?"
