Tomb Raider: The Adventures of a Dumb Man

Chapter 1160: Black Blind Man’s Child 2

"Don't be polite, you mute. Eat more." Hei Xiazi piled a small mountain of food into Zhang Qilin's bowl.

“Only when you are full can you have the strength to work.

My daughter, come with me to the town at the foot of the mountain tomorrow to get some supplies.

Just to see if there's any work."

"Full payment in advance!" Zhang Xinyu's reflexive response.

No money, no going.

"I know, I know!" Hei Xiazi rolled his eyes. "Money-grubber! You'll be in charge of negotiating the price. If the negotiations break down, we'll just withdraw. We won't starve to death anyway."

They have plenty of treasures.

Zhang Xinyu nodded with satisfaction, took a few bites of rice, and then remembered something: "Oh, Dad, what should we do with the blood corpse in our space?

It's not a good idea to keep it locked up all the time. Do you want to give it some feed?

What does it eat? It eats grass. There’s plenty on the mountain. It saves money!

Hei Xiazi paused while picking up the food, with a look of disgust on his face: "Feed? Raising him as a pet?

That thing won't die, and it won't starve to death! Don't worry about it.

Let it stay there, it will keep the mute company and prevent him from getting moldy all alone."

He glanced at Zhang Qilin, who was eating quietly, and said, "Mute, what do you think? Is the blood corpse noisy?"

Zhang Qilin raised his eyelids, as if trying to recall the chattering neighbor. After a moment, he uttered two words: "...Not bad."

Zhang Xinyu chuckled. "See, even the dumb brother said it's okay. The blood corpse is quite likable. I'll tie it up for you to play with later."

The next morning, three people, strictly speaking two people, Zhang Qilin said he had no interest in going down the mountain and chose to stay in the bamboo house and continue to be in a daze.

Hei Xiazi took Zhang Xinyu and ran down the mountain like monkeys.

Hei Xia Zi led the way, and Zhang Xinyu followed behind. She looked at her father's waist and then compared it with her own. Wow, her father's waist is so nice.

The two of them quickly reached the foot of the mountain carrying their backpacks.

"Dad, what should we buy? Rice, flour, grain, oil, clothes!"

"Buy more for the mute. He likes candy, and our clothes are too long for him."

"Do you want to buy girls' clothes?"

Zhang Xinyu shook her head: "No, I'll just buy some necessities."

Girls' clothes are not that convenient.

Like now, when she stands with her father, they look like a pair, very close father and daughter.

Hei Xia Zi's mouth twitched when he heard his daughter's answer.

This girl, I’ll buy her some more delicious food later.

Zhang Xinyu never stopped talking during the purchasing process.

"Boss, is this rice stale? Five yuan off!"

"This bacon doesn't look fresh. Add two more green onions!"

"A barrel of oil? No, you have to give me a rag! Otherwise I won't buy it!"

The bosses were so embarrassed by the tall and fierce beauty that their faces turned red. However, her smiling face and those frighteningly bright eyes made them inexplicably scared.

In addition, there was a black bear leaning against the door, wearing sunglasses, with his arms crossed and a half-smile on his face, which made the feeling of oppression very strong.

In the end, most of the transactions were completed at Zhang Xinyu's preferential price.

On the way back, the backpack was full of supplies.

Zhang Xinyu counted the spoils with satisfaction, humming a tuneless song.

Her father is obviously not a good person. It is easy for him to get away with it at the border. He will basically be reported in the city. He looks like a spy bastard.

Black Bear: ...

A great filial daughter.

If you have the guts, don’t eat the food your father cooks.

The father and daughter went back chatting and laughing.

Zhang Qilin was still the same, just sitting in the yard basking in the sun and daydreaming.

I guess the Guangxi sun can’t tan him.

Due to the Zhang family's abnormal physique, they can't get tanned at all.

He also turns in the direction the sun moves.

When I saw them coming back, I looked at them and found a banana in my hand that came from nowhere.

Hei Xiazi immediately looked towards the roof and saw a monkey grinning at him.

Zhang Xinyu: ...

Her father has been disliked by animals for more than a day or two.

Even her relationship with animals is bad.

When fed by animals, they would just chop down the food with their knives when the animals came, and dinner would be served.

animal:.....

I went to complain while cursing, hoping that I would never meet them in my next life.

Zhang Xinyu put the food and daily necessities in the kitchen and some in the cellar.

Hei Xia Zi went to wash clothes, but he and the mute's clothes could not be washed by his daughter.

Zhang Qilin stopped being in a daze and walked to the blind man. Looking at him washing clothes, he suddenly reached out his hand.

The two of them were wringing the clothes.

Hei Xia Zi seemed to be in a good mood, and Zhang Qilin even stuffed a banana into his mouth.

Zhang Xinyu: ...

This is the stepmother.

An amnesiac stepmother and her gangster father.

It was my dad who kidnapped the beautiful, rich girl from the family.

No, well, miserable white, rich and beautiful girl.

Shaking her head, the two of them had already gone up to the bamboo house. Zhang Xinyu shrugged and decided to go prepare the ingredients.

All three of them are big eaters.

I'd really get hungry if I didn't have enough.

No wonder Dad asked her to prepare so many chickens.

Dad bought all the chickens and eggs in the village.

This is called using chickens to retain people, or the beauty chicken trick.

Zhang Xinyu was chopping the chicken. As expected, space is the best place to keep food fresh. It was super fresh.

Bloody Corpse: . . . .

Brother Chicken is gone.

Zhang Qilin followed the blind man back to the room.

"How much do you remember?"

Hei Xiazi poured him a glass of water and added some honey.

After all, the mute is still weak.

Zhang Qilin shook his head. He just knew that the person guarding him was not a good person, but he didn't have the strength to run.

They had a deal with him.

But it looks like it's a failure.

Jiumen is not a good person, Zhang Qishan is not a good person, and there are others. Some people's gazes make him very uncomfortable.

Although he was stupid and his mind was blank, he would remember their reactions.

The black bear laughed.

He also sat down on the edge of the bed, so close that he could almost feel the lingering weakness and tension in the other person.

"Okay, just remember it."

Hei Xia Zi's voice was a little playful, yet revealed a subtle seriousness.

"Mute Zhang has a good memory, which is something I always admire as a blind man.

It’s good to remember who has dirty eyes and who has not held their farts well.

This will save you from being foolishly cheated again in the future."

Zhang Qilin: . . . .

No, it didn't feel right. He felt that the blind man was cursing and being sarcastic.

Zhang Qilin held the warm cup, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the wall of the cup.

The sweet smell of honey water wafted up to him. He lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes cast a light shadow on his pale face.

Don't listen to curse words.

"Zhang Qishan..." He repeated the name in a low voice. The feeling brought by this name was very bad, like a sticky swamp, dragging him down.

"Yes, that old guy." Hei Xia Zi sneered, and the disdain in his tone was not concealed at all.

"He's a hypocrite, but full of evil intentions. But don't worry, he can't care about you right now.

He's got a lot of trouble with his mess."

He paused, moved closer, and lowered his voice with a hint of teasing as if he was coaxing a child.

"Besides, I'm here with the blind man. No matter if he's the Buddha or the King of Hell, if he wants to touch you, he has to first ask the blind man if he agrees with the weapon in my hand."

Zhang Qilin didn't react much, just tilted his head slightly, as if digesting Hei Xia Zi's words.

Trust or not is still too complicated a concept for him at this moment.

He's not a fool.

He just instinctively felt that this blind man in front of him, who was so careless and spoke incoherently, was a little more pleasing to the eye than those people who were circling around him with calculations in their eyes.

At least, he wouldn't hurt him.
