Master Sculptor

Chapter 3

Li Hanlin's elder brother is Li Hanzheng, who is ten years older than him.Regarding the names of the two brothers, there is still a relationship that has to be said.When his mother was just pregnant with his brother, Li Jianguo rarely calmed down and picked up the dictionary. After reading it for three days, he finally gave his brother a name.

"Li Dazhi, that's the name! Wife! In the future, if we have another one, we'll call it Li Dayong. I've made up my mind! Dazhi Dayong, 'Yong' follows me, 'Wisdom' follows you, wow! All the advantages have been inherited!" Comrade Li Jianguo said happily, very pleased.

Hearing the names of these two scumbags, Lin Huixin (mother) only felt pain in her head, and immediately vetoed him, but this time Li Jianguo refused to give in.

"I'm the child's father, why can't I name them?" Li Jianguo retorted righteously.

Lin Huixin sighed and did not argue with him.She was born in a scholarly family and has read many books. She is gentle and modest, and she can't speak loudly.Li Hanlin deeply felt that his mother, a lady from a great family, and his father, an illiterate and shameless father, were nothing more than flowers planted in cow dung.In the end, it was the old man who came forward, scolded his father a few words, and picked the word "Han".His elder brother was short of gold in the five elements, and he was short of wood, so the mother chose the characters "Zheng" and "Lin" respectively.This prevented the two brothers from being called thieves for the rest of their lives.

Recalling the past story told by his mother, Li Hanlin couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at? You were nervous just now, but now you can laugh?" Li Hanzheng looked at his brother who was ten years younger than him, and habitually tapped his head with his fingers, "Be serious."

"So, you saw the ebony forest left by your grandfather in your dream? Does it feel real?" Li Hanzheng asked.

Li Hanlin nodded vigorously, "It's so real! The touch of the tree and the crowing of the rooster were very clear. I slapped myself twice, and it was painful."

Li Jianguo shook his head and said, "It's amazing! I went to another world in my dream, and I would be called crazy if I told it. The grandpa and grandson went to the same place in the dream...It's amazing, it's amazing!"

Li Hanzheng held his grandfather's suicide note and thought for a moment: "Is what you saw exactly the same as what was written in the grandfather's letter?"

"Basically the same. But I saw a child, which was not mentioned in the letter."

"The time in that world also flows. It's not surprising that it's different when you think about it." Li Hanzheng frowned, "But are these dreams real or illusory? How will it affect you? Will it... ..”

As soon as the words came out, several people fell silent.

Such a grotesque thing happened suddenly, and it was unknown what consequences it would bring.Li Hanlin didn't even know if he would go to that place again.Even Grandpa wasn't sure about that.In the letter, Grandpa only said that he left an ebony forest for him under a hillside, and at the same time talked about those strange chickens.Other than that, there was no mention of the restricted area or any other related matters in the city.This seems to be hiding something, maybe it's hard to say, maybe it's not clear.But the latter is obviously unlikely.

"Will there be danger? Can it be avoided?" Lin Huixin, who had been quietly listening to the process, said nervously.

Li Hanlin was silent for a moment, and said vaguely: "The environment there is very bad. The children I saw were skinny and skinny from hunger, and they were so dirty that they seemed to have never taken a bath. I heard from the children that there were abandoned people living there, but I haven't seen them yet." arrive."

There are so many unknown things that the whole family does not know how to speak.In the end, Li Hanzheng, who was still the calmest, said: "Hanlin, next time you enter and exit this dream, put a button on your hand. I think the first thing to be sure is whether the damage you suffered in that world will be reflected in this dream. You in this world." If misfortune happens in that world, then death will follow in this world.

"Yeah." Li Hanlin nodded, feeling that the atmosphere was too dignified, and he said loudly, "Why are you so nervous? Think about it, grandpa has gone too. Not only is there nothing wrong, but there is also such a large and precious ebony forest .Now that's all mine! Maybe there's something good waiting for me there!"

"Han Lin, sleep with mom tonight, if there is anything unusual, I can wake you up immediately." Lin Huixin's face was full of worry.

"No, no, I'll just sleep by myself." Li Hanlin hurriedly waved his hands, even though Li Hanzheng was well disguised, he could clearly see the smile in the other party's eyes.This made his ears turn red.

"Sleep with Dad!" Li Jianguo slapped his thigh.

"As soon as you lie down, you sleep like a pig. If something happens, will you be able to react? Hanlin, and mother." Lin Huixin obviously disagreed.

"Why do I sleep like a pig? If something goes wrong with Hanlin, I can kick him awake immediately. How can you react as vigilantly as I am a soldier?"

Seeing that the couple was about to start a fight, Li Hanlin immediately shouted one after another: "I'll sleep with my elder brother and sleep with my elder brother."

Li Hanzheng couldn't laugh or cry watching the chaotic scene.He had no choice but to tell his younger brother, "Just follow me, I'm a light sleeper."

Li Jianguo pestered him again to ask his father and son to share a room, but Li Hanlin resolutely refused.In the end, Li Hanlin temporarily moved to Li Hanzheng's room.

That night, Li Hanlin fell asleep in anxiety.When he opened his eyes and saw the blue sky, he knew that he had come to "that world" again.

Big Eyes has woken up and is squatting aside to eat.Before dawn, he went out to find some food, but he found very little, only a few bunches of red fruit the size of a fingernail.

Hearing Li Hanlin's movements, Big Eyes pointed to the two bunches of fruit next to his feet and said, "Eat."

Li Hanlin looked at the child who had closed his eyes, and hesitantly picked up the two bunches of unknown fruits from the ground.The big eye over there had already swallowed the jujube whole, did not hear the sound of his chewing, and said again: "It's delicious."

Li Hanlin tried to take one off, rubbed it on his body, and put it in his mouth.Sour and sweet, a bit spicy, but overall the taste is okay.

"You only eat this?" Li Hanlin asked.

Big Eyes lowered his head in shame, he couldn't find any more food.

Li Hanlin gave him another string, but the child refused a few times and then accepted it at Li Hanlin's insistence.As soon as he got it, he gobbled it up.Li Hanlin looked even more distressed.

Seeing that his eyes were tightly closed, Li Hanlin asked softly, "What will happen when you open your eyes?"

The big eyes froze all over, and after a long while, he hesitated and said: "There will be, there will be a curse. Don't be afraid! I won't open it!" Because of these eyes, no one dared to approach him except the blind grandfather who took him in. So he had to stay in the cabin during the day.Now finally there is a person who is willing to communicate with him, and he doesn't want to scare people away just like that.

Li Hanlin never believed in such things as curses, so he asked again: "Why?"

"...I will die if I see it." The child's face was tense, as if he was about to cry.

Li Hanlin couldn't help walking over and took the other party's small black hand, and said word by word: "Open it, let me see if I will die."

The moment he was touched, his big eyes were so frightened that he didn't know how to place his hands and feet.The hand holding him was big and warm.And he took a peek at it last night. This person's hands were very clean, unlike his own where he couldn't even see the original color.He was suddenly so ashamed that he couldn't bear it, and hurriedly wanted to shrink back.However, in the next second, he heard the other party's gentle but firm words.

What he doesn't know is that from this moment on, his future has completely changed.

If the mood when looking into the eyes of a child at night is amazing, then Li Hanlin's mood at this moment can only be described by countless surprises.Amber eyes, slender pupils, these are clearly the eyes of a beast!

Li Hanlin stared blankly, almost forgetting to speak.Dayan was frightened by his concentrated appearance, thinking that he had entered a magic barrier, which was a harbinger of being cursed soon.He hastily closed his eyes, and vigorously shook Li Hanlin who was in a daze.

Li Hanlin's whole mind was still immersed in the amazing pair of animal pupils, and when he realized it, he realized that the child was crying with his eyes closed.Tears washed out several streams on the black cheeks, and they couldn't stop.

Li Hanlin patted him on the back clumsily, and asked: "It's okay, the eyes are very beautiful. Don't cry anymore."

Li Hanlin's technique of coaxing children is so bad, but a compliment made Dayan stop crying.

"nice?"

"It's really pretty." Li Hanlin nodded seriously, to show that he wasn't lying.

"But everyone was scared and didn't dare to look at me."

"They are cowards, let's ignore them."

The corner of the child's mouth curled up, and he smiled softly.Suddenly he changed his face again, and hurriedly said: "But you are going to die!"

The corner of Li Hanlin's mouth twitched, and he comforted: "No. I'm very powerful, and it won't be affected by watching it."

The child's eyes widened suddenly, and his voice became hoarse with excitement: "Really?"

"Ah."

+ + + + + +

Li Hanlin wanted to go out to find something to eat with Dayan, but Dayan refused no matter what, so he had to go out alone.After walking a hundred meters, Li Hanlin finally saw other people in the restricted area.There are old and young, each doing their own thing.The expressions on their faces are mostly resentment or uneasiness, and very few people can have a calm face.Besides, except for a few children, most of them were wearing tattered clothes and their faces were barely clean.Think big eyes are an exception.

When they saw Li Hanlin, they didn't show any other expressions on their faces, and they looked away after a slight glance.Some coveted his intact clothes, showing greedy eyes.In addition, people's faces are wearing a mask of indifference and alienation, which makes him feel that these people seem to be just waiting for the moment of death.Thinking about it this way, the active big eyes seem to be another exception.

In order to avoid causing trouble, Li Hanlin did not communicate with others, and went straight to the ebony forest yesterday.Grandpa mentioned these chickens in his letter, not talking about their abnormal singing patterns, but introducing how they were slaughtered.You can only eat roosters, not hens, and the rooster comb must be removed first, and the blood should be completely drained before cooking.Since grandpa specifically explained it, there must be a reason for it.

Li Hanlin dug a trap on the ground and caught a chicken.Then he hummed a tune and walked back carrying the chicken. Along the way, there were many people watching him.Many people looked like they were waiting to see a good show.

Li Hanlin was extremely puzzled and continued to walk forward.There were two people talking about him not far away, Li Hanlin slowed down and listened carefully.

"Someone is looking for death again." It was a mean female voice.

"Sister, do you want to tell him?" a boy said.

"Don't meddle in other people's business. If you can't get enough to eat, why do you care about other people's life and death?" The girl sneered, "But this newcomer seems to have encountered that disaster star, and he won't live long."

Li Hanlin frowned and strode back.

There is almost no one within a radius of 50 meters from Big Eye’s cabin, and the people here all reject this child with unique eyes.Li Hanlin sneered, full of disgust towards those indifferent people behind him.

Big eyes happily greeted him at the door, and his face changed instantly when he saw the chicken in his hand.

"Throw it away!"

The author has something to say: There are two mean children who have appeared on the stage.

The murderous hero will have to wait a few more chapters.
