Rebirth: Traveling To Ancient Times As A Companion Reading Chapter 34
byGet into trouble
Until Joey followed Lou Ling to a relatively remote mansion on Jingcheng East Street.
Joey got off the carriage and looked at the street in front of him where almost no one was passing by. Then he looked back at Lou Ling who was still sitting in the carriage and said, “If you want to sell, just tell me. I will follow you by myself. There is no need to bring me to such a remote place to trade.”
Lou Ling seemed speechless. He put down the book in his hand, looked at Joey, and said, “Aren’t you looking for a house? He’s inside.”
“Here?” Joey looked at the mansion behind him, “Why does he live here?”
But Lou Ling didn’t explain it yesterday, so naturally she won’t say much now.He lowered the car curtain and said, “If you want to know, can you go in and ask yourself? I’m leaving.”
Today is not a holiday, Lou Ling got up early and brought Joey here.After Joey left, Lou Ling had to rush back to Taixue for morning classes.
So when Joey looked at the leaving carriage, he didn’t curse Lou Ling quietly in his heart, turned around and walked towards the mansion behind him.
“Knock knock knock.”
Joey knocked on the door three times tentatively.
It was only a quarter past three, and Joey wasn’t sure if Fang Qingzhou was awake, so he didn’t make much noise.
After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement behind the door.
Joey thought that Fang Qingzhou might not get up so early, so he turned around and left.
“Squeak.”
But the moment Joey turned around, the door behind him suddenly opened.
Joey turned around and saw Fang Qingzhou, a disheveled man wearing a simple middle coat standing at the door frame, holding a black cat in his hand.
“Coming?” Fang Qingzhou didn’t seem to be surprised that Joey would appear here. He said casually and turned back.
Joey stepped forward and followed Fang Qingzhou in.
Joey walked beside Fang Qingzhou and looked at Hei Pa, who was still squinting his eyes. He was a little surprised and reached out to touch it. “Has Hei Pa been good lately?”
“Black handkerchief?” Fang Qingzhou looked sideways, seemingly confused.
Joey: “That’s its name.”
Fang Qingzhou: “Why did you choose this name?”
Joey: “I don’t know, I just called it whatever I thought of at the time.”
Fang Qingzhou: “It is very smart and spiritual. You shouldn’t be so casual.”
“Are you casual?” Joey brought Heipa over and checked the injury on his leg, “I don’t think so. Heipa, do you think I’m very casual with you?”
“Meow.”
Hei Pa was too lazy to say anything, turned over in Joey’s arms and continued to sleep, not caring at all.
Joey: “Look, it didn’t say anything.”
Fang Qingzhou looked at Joey, who looked indifferent, and then at Heipa, who was enjoying himself. He didn’t dwell on the topic anymore, but instead asked, “Have you had breakfast?”
Joey: “Not yet.”
Fang Qingzhou took Joey to the kitchen, pointed to the stove where firewood was piled, and said, “Go and light a fire.”
“Ah?” Joey didn’t expect that Fang Qingzhou would ask him to do this job. He pointed at himself and said blankly: “Me?”
Fang Qingzhou glanced sideways, “It’s not you, is it me? I’m going to knead the dough, but you’re angry first.”
After saying that, Fang Qingzhou walked aside to make noodles, leaving only Joey and Hei Pa looking at each other in shock.
Black Pa clearly knew Joey’s level. He glanced at Joey, then jumped out of Joey’s arms, limping to the side dragging his left leg that was not fully healed. He squatted down and looked at Joey who was stunned on the spot, his eyes full of schadenfreude.
Joey opened his mouth, trying to tell Fang Qingzhou some facts, “That…I…”
Fang Qingzhou didn’t even look this way, and said without looking back: “You just put the flammable hay in it, light it with a fire stick, and then add firewood in it.”
Joey shut up. He looked hesitantly at the firewood piled higher than him and thought, it sounds so simple, so there should be no problem, right?
According to Fang Qingzhou, Joey took out a handful of hay next to the piles of firewood, and then stuffed it into the stove mouth.
After making sure it was filled with hay, Joey took the fire bag from the side and stuffed it inside.
A flash of fire flashed, and the hay in the stove ignited with lightning speed.The beating flames in the stove reflected in Joey’s eyes, illuminating his dark eyes.
“Okay! Look!” Joey got up and wanted to find a boat to show off. He got up too hastily and accidentally pulled out the hay that was still burning in the stove.
Fang Qingzhou didn’t stop moving his hands, and he felt that such a simple thing was nothing to Joey, so he just responded without looking back and continued to knead the dough.
Joey felt that Fang Qingzhou’s reaction was a little too flat. He turned around and walked towards Hei Pa, “Why are you running? I succeeded this time.”
!How big is the fire? Do you see it?”
But instead of showing any surprise, Hei Pa’s eyes widened and formed into a thin line, as if he had seen something incredible.
“Meow!”
Stop showing off!
Joey didn’t know why, “Why? I was successful in lighting the fire this time. I didn’t almost burn the mountain like the last time I was in Chushan.” Joey got angry when he thought about Chushan and complained: “It was all Lou Ling’s fault that time! If it hadn’t been for him…”
“Meow!”
Stop being proud!Can you take a look back first?
Joey turned around and found that the flame he had accidentally brought out of the stove had been thrown to the haystack not far away.By this time the hay had been set on fire.The tongues of fire were like a sudden flood rushing down from the mountain. They were unstoppable and instantly swept away the dry firewood piled into a wall.
“Fuck!” Joey was anxious, and he instantly looked back at Fang Qingzhou.
Fang Qingzhou was still concentrating on the movements in his hands and seemed not to notice the movement behind him.
Joey hurriedly stepped on the flames on the ground, trying to put out the fire before Fang Qingzhou discovered that he was setting fire to the kitchen.
But the weather was already dry, and Joey’s small movements to extinguish the fire that had spread to the firewood were in vain.In addition, the wind brought by the movement gave the fire more strength. As a result, the fire did not decrease, but became bigger and bigger.
Joey looked at the fire in front of him that started from a small flame with his “help”, grew bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a raging fire. He wanted to cry, but he had no choice. Things related to the kitchen were really incompatible with him!
“What’s wrong?” He felt that it seemed to be getting hotter and hotter behind him, and Hei Pa came to his feet and bit his trousers.Fang Qingzhou was very confused and turned around to see what was going on.
As a result, Fang Qingzhou was stunned at first glance.
The still-expanding fire has begun to gradually spread to Joey, but Joey is still trying to stamp it out with his feet.
“You’re crazy!” Fang Qingzhou felt that there was something wrong with Joey’s mind, so he pulled him over. “What kind of fire has it burned? You are still thinking about using your body to put out the fire. Do you want to die?!”
Seeing the undisguised anger on Fang Qingzhou’s face, Joey opened his mouth to explain something.
But before Joey could say anything, Fang Qingzhou pushed him aside and went to find water.
As the initiator, Joey saw Fang Qingzhou scooping water from the water tank to put out the fire, and he was in a hurry and wanted to help.But this water was specifically designed to work against Joey. The water that Joey made would either be scattered halfway through, or it would be difficult to even scoop up the water.
“Is this water poisonous?!” Joey was furious. The more the water went against him, the more he wanted to throw it on the fire.
“Okay.” Before Joey wasted the little water left, Fang Qingzhou held down Joey’s hand that was about to move, and said helplessly: “Let the water go, and let me go too. If the water is gone, we really can’t put out the fire.”
Joey looked at Fang Qingzhou, who looked tired, and felt inexplicably guilty. He unconsciously let go of the water ladle in his hand.
In the end, there was no danger, and the fire was finally put out with only half a tank of water left in the kitchen.
Looking at the burned-black wall in front of him and the mess on the ground, Fang Qingzhou sighed helplessly, turned his head, and wanted to say something to Joey.
But when he saw Joey shrinking his neck and lowering his head, and cautiously looking up at him from time to time, Fang Qingzhou opened his mouth, and finally just sighed without saying anything.
“I’m sorry.”
Joey knew that he was in the wrong. He put his hands behind his back and lowered his head almost to his chest.
“Meow.”
Hei Pa yelled next to him and rubbed Fang Qingzhou’s trouser legs, as if he was apologizing for Joey’s behavior.
Fang Qingzhou looked at the man and the cat with the word “pity” written all over his body. No matter how angry he was, he had dissipated at this time.He knelt down and picked up the black handkerchief, and patted the dust on Joey’s body, “Let’s go, let’s go out to eat.”
