Chapter 137 Harvest a pine tree
【Although they are lying on the ground, they still have their own emotions. Please don't do things that **** them off. 】
Zhou Bai looked at the line of words on the wooden sign and couldn't help frowning.
This stone is obviously not ordinary.
And it is placed next to the sign, does it mean that there is a connection between this stone and the things said on the wooden sign?
Cracks appeared in the stone again. Is it because Zhou Bai and Jim's actions just now angered them?
Zhou Bai didn't see the condition of the stone when he clashed with Jim, so he couldn't easily draw a conclusion.
He can only assume first.
Assuming that the behavior just now angered them, which aspect specifically angered them?
Making too much noise?
Negative emotions conveyed?
It is not impossible to assume that it is because the sound is too loud.
After all, the bald chainsaw man comes here to cut trees every day, and the noise he makes is quite loud.
There are so many cracks accumulated on the stone before, it is hard to say that it has nothing to do with the behavior of the bald chainsaw man.
Zhou Bai is still unable to draw a conclusion.
I just feel that the cracks on the stone make people feel a little scared when they look at it.
He stood there watching for a long time before turning around and walking towards the castle.
The gate of the castle.
Last night, the candle that Zhou Bai placed at the door had already been extinguished.
Zhou Bai walked over and looked at the candle.
I saw this candle, the height did not change much.
The distance from the mouth of the vase is still about 20 centimeters.
That is to say, the candle went out last night without burning much.
Zhou Bai stared at the mouth of the vase, thinking.
Logically speaking, if it is extinguished by the wind, such windproof measures generally require a strong wind to blow directly from the bottle mouth to extinguish it.
But, was the wind last night really that strong?
For the time being, Zhou Bai is still trying to think about this issue from a scientific point of view.
In fact, he also knew in his heart that he was talking about the world.
Maybe what he wants to overcome is not these scientific problems.
He felt that he might still be a long way from the real problem-solving ideas.
So I could only sigh.
Then pick up the vase, and the candle inside the vase.
Opened the gate of the old castle and walked in.
Inside the hall of the old castle.
Bootz is cleaning with a broom.
When he saw Zhou Bai entering the door, he quickly bowed his head to say hello.
"Sir, you are back."
Zhou Bai put the ax in his hand on the ground, and found a seat in the hall to sit down.
Buzz put the broom aside, went to the kitchen, and poured Zhou Bai a glass of water.
When he put the water in front of Zhou Bai, at the beginning, he saw the bruises on Zhou Bai's face.
"Sir, your face..."
Zhou Bai touched the bruise on his face, and said with a smile.
"It's okay, the business negotiation is going well."
Booz had a look of disbelief on his face.
But he quickly lowered his head, picked up the broom and continued cleaning.
Just as Zhou Bai was about to finish the glass of water in front of him, the sound of a car came from outside the gate of the castle.
No one usually visits the castle, so Boots immediately looked outside the door vigilantly when he heard the sound.
Hearing this voice, Zhou Bai smiled and looked out the door.
Intuition told him that this voice was from his defeated general who came to give him the spoils.
Booze was still holding the broom in his hand, and then walked quickly to the door.
Then, he saw a large truck, carrying a 5-meter-high pine tree, parked outside the gate of the castle.
Jim jumped out of the truck.
I don't know why, but every time Booth sees Jim, there is always a kind of natural hostility.
And Jim got out of the car, looked up and saw the huge castle in front of him, and the expression on his face also looked a bit gloomy.
The two stood facing each other like this, but the surrounding atmosphere seemed to freeze a bit.
Fortunately, Zhou Bai appeared in time at this time.
broke the silence between the two of them.
"I, Jim, would take the bet.
If he said he would give you a pine tree, he would give you a pine tree.
Never break your promise. "
After Jim finished speaking, he walked to the back of the truck and showed Zhou Bai the pine tree he had brought.
"Look, this is the largest and tallest pine tree in our store.
How about it?
Still satisfied? "
Zhou Bai also approached and looked at the pine tree.
Then he nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, you are indeed a person who keeps promises."
Jim proudly raised his head when he heard Zhou Bai's praise.
"Tell me, where do you want to put it?
I'll move in for you. "
Zhou Bai took a look at the height of the pine tree, and by visual estimation, it could fit in the hall.
So he said, "Just put it in the hall."
After Jim got the answer, he started to move the pine tree.
Since Boots saw Jim, his complexion was not so good.
Especially when he heard that he was going to move the pine tree into the castle, his face was even darker and terrifying.
The pine tree weighed nearly 200 kilograms by visual inspection.
Jim put the tree down from the car, and Zhou Bai walked over, wanting to help.
But Boots took the first step and held onto the other side of the pine tree.
Then he and Jim carried the pine tree into the castle.
Zhou Bai stood in front and instructed them to put the pine tree in the corner, near the window.
After they put down the pine tree, Zhou Bai looked at the pine tree, then nodded in satisfaction.
Jim set the pine tree in place and patted the dust off his hands.
A pair of eyes began to scan around the castle intentionally or unconsciously.
Bootz has a serious face, always paying attention to Jim's every move, and his hostility towards him is clearly shown on his face.
Zhou Bai admired his spoils, but he also saw the turbulent tide between the two of them.
These two people really have their own thoughts.
It is very possible that there is still a certain connection about their story line.
Zhou Bai thought of this, and turned his gaze away from the pine tree.
Then looks at Jim.
"Need me to take you to visit the castle?"
Jim looked away in embarrassment when he heard Zhou Bai's question.
"No need, I should go too."
So, he bid farewell to Zhou Bai, and then walked out the door.
Booz stared at Jim's back as he walked out.
He didn't look away until he confirmed that he had walked out the door.
Zhou Bai looked at the time on his phone, it showed that it was almost 11:30 noon.
So Zhou Bai said to Boots.
"No need to prepare my lunch.
I have to go to that little diner in town. "
After Zhou Bai finished speaking, he glanced at Boots, and then made amends.
"I made an appointment with the owner of that store, and I have something to talk about."
Bootz nodded after listening.
"Okay, sir.
Then I will take you there. "
