A Midnight Escape Story for Farmers

Fang Shiqing understood what he meant, but because of this, he dared not let him take the fish tank away.

"But, my place is quite far away from the lake, isn't it?" I almost had an accident here, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to take it back.Here at least he can still see the other party, but if the other party leaves, he really can't rest assured.

"It's nothing," Xiao Fengdi said. "Although the water ghost is a very fierce ghost, its home field is only at the water's edge. It's far away from the lake, and it can only create illusions to confuse humans. Be careful, be more careful and you won’t get caught.”

"Illusions... When you were in the last dungeon before, didn't the illusions of the puppet have no effect on you?"

"That's because that puppet is too stupid. Does her illusion work for you?"

"……"All right.

"Moreover, the illusion created by the water ghost is special. When someone looks at the water surface, the water ghost will create someone's image in the water surface, and use illusion to deceive the person's brain, making him mistakenly think that as long as he stretches out his hand towards the water, You can get the other party—the so-called Shuiyue Jinghua."

Xiao Fengdi smiled meaningfully, "So, the more people have something they can't get in their hearts, the easier it is to be deceived by this illusion. Do you understand?"

Fang Shiqing recalled his experience in the afternoon again, and immediately realized that what he saw in the water in the afternoon was Xiao Fengdi himself, and he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Even though he knew it was impossible for the other party to know his thoughts, he still felt ashamed of revealing something under the other party's gaze.

"Then, that is to say..." he asked in a low voice, "Boss, do you have such a, uh, sweetheart that you can't ask for?"

"—Of course there is."

Xiao Fengdi looked at him and replied calmly.

... Sure enough.

This is not a surprising answer.Fang Shi felt early in the morning that Xiao Fengdi should have someone he likes in his heart, otherwise he would not have hesitated to come out of the closet to avoid suspicion with him.

It must be because that person is very important to him.It's so important that you don't want others to misunderstand you.

He felt very uncomfortable, but because he had already had psychological expectations, he quickly accepted the fact.

"There is such a person," Xiao Fengdi said slowly, "I love him very much, but he refuses to respond to me no matter what. No matter what I say or do or how I express my feelings, he behaves It's like not finding it at all. I feel like I've done everything I can, but I still can't get him closer to me, and sometimes I really feel like I might never get him."

Although there was unwillingness and loss in his words, they were still full of affection.I can feel that he really loves that person.

Fang Shiqing experienced the jealousy like a knife for a long time, but he didn't show anything strange on his face, and even managed to squeeze out a consoling smile.

"That... Don't worry, boss, you are such a nice person, as long as you get along with him for a while, he will definitely like you too."

——What else, he doesn't even have the qualifications to express jealousy.

"...No, that's not the problem," Xiao Fengdi said, "I think he likes me, but he can't understand that I like him too. I have expressed it in many ways, and every time he They all walked around as if nothing had happened, and sometimes I simply suspect that he did it on purpose."

Hearing this, Fang Shiqing suddenly felt subtle.

Probably because he had harbored malice towards the "rival in love" in the first place, but at this time the other party's description made him feel uncomfortable.

"You...have already expressed something to him, but he has never admitted that he likes you, and he has also acted like he doesn't know that you like him. Is he just maintaining the status quo?"

"Correct."

Xiao Fengdi stared at him without blinking, "Have you thought of anything?"

He seemed to be just asking casually, but he quietly clenched his fingers tightly.

Fang Shiqing was a little embarrassed, after thinking about it, he could only say cryptically: "Boss, I think, when someone really likes someone else, he can't hide all his reactions, and he can't hide his every move towards the person he likes." It will be zoomed in. You have hinted with all your strength, but he..., why do you think this is?"

It is very likely that they just want to use fishing as a spare tire. It is not pleasant to say such words directly.

"..."

While he was speaking, Xiao Fengdi's face darkened little by little, and finally completely darkened.

"Probably because he is stupid." He said blankly, "I'm leaving."

After speaking, he put away the fish tank, turned around and left.Fang Shiqing wanted to say something more, but when he glanced at him, he was so frightened that he immediately fell silent——

It's been a long time since the boss looked so fierce, he almost forgot how scary the other party was when he got up.

Xiao Feng left the hut and walked outside.At this time, it was already dark, and the zombies in the farm had already started to move. Some of them rushed towards him, but were quickly driven away by the shimmering light from his body.

Fang Shiqing chased to the door, watching his back completely disappear into the night.

The boss is obviously angry, is it because he said something unfavorable to that "sweetheart"?That person is so important in Xiao Fengdi's heart, so important that he can't be told that he is not good at all?

He felt a sharp pang of regret.It's right to think about it, why should I accuse the person the boss likes in front of others?Since the boss would like it, that person must have his own advantages. Taking a step back, even if that person is really bad, it's not up to him as an outsider to say anything.

——Perhaps I was too selfish to make such a low-level mistake.

The next day, Xiao Fengdi sent the fish tank back as promised, but his attitude was still very cold when facing him, he put down his things and left without saying a word.

Fang Shiqing wanted to apologize, but he didn't get a chance to speak at all.

It seems that the boss is really very angry this time.He reflected for a while, and felt that he shouldn't get up to annoy people in a short period of time, so he didn't leave the farm for the next few days, just concentrating on his work.

It is now the end of summer, and the weather has been extremely hot recently. I have to act against the sun every day during the day, and my physical strength is exhausted very quickly.

On the 24th and 25th, there were continuous showers for two consecutive days, and the sultry heat for many days was swept away.

This kind of weather is very comfortable for Fang Shiqing, and it can save the effort of watering.He rested on the farm for two days, continued to practice the craft every day, and finally raised the skill level by one level.

After upgrading, he can use more materials to process different items, including pottery and firing glass, but there is no dedicated clay kiln here.

The hydraulic mill that I planned to build before has been mostly completed now, just put all the parts on the runner, and then choose a location by the water to install it.

Taking advantage of the gaps between several showers, he also went out and dug a small square pond not far from the door, surrounded it with a peach wood fence, and put a few koi in it.

In a hurry, this pond is not very good-looking.However, he has never had any requirements for aesthetics, as long as it is passable, the main thing is to consider practicality.

According to the data, the fish in the game are easy to reproduce. As long as they are given enough space and food, the adult fish will lay eggs by themselves every once in a while.

Anyway, koi are easy to raise, and he really wants to breed more, and maybe he can exchange some money from the task shopping website in the future.

On the 26th, as soon as he went out in the morning, Fang Shiqing was immediately frightened.

Overnight, all the peach trees turned out to bear big peaches.

When I saw it yesterday, there were only green leaves, and not even half of the green fruits were seen. Today, the trees are full of pink and tender peaches, bending the branches—this kind of strange sight can only be seen in games.

Without exception, these peaches are fresh and plump, and they look so attractive that people have the urge to take a bite. They are so beautiful that they look like something shot in a documentary; Fang Shiqing thinks.I have never seen such a beautiful fruit in reality.

He couldn't help being very excited, and spent more than an hour picking all the peaches he could see.In the game, the fruit that can be produced on each tree is not as many as in reality, but there are still hundreds of dozens of fruits harvested, and the pile looks very impressive.

He washed one at random and took a bite, only to find that it tasted very sweet and had the unique aroma of peaches.Before I knew it, I ate the whole thing, and then I put down my hands in satisfaction, feeling that the bad emotions for many days have been diluted by the delicious food.

He has grown several batches of grapes and watermelons before, which are also very sweet, but they are not easy to store, so he sold most of them directly, and only a small amount was given away, or eaten by himself on the same day.In comparison, peaches are less perishable and can be stored for a longer period of time.

He should be the only one with peach trees in the whole town, and it is rare to have peaches. Of course, it is better to be alone than to be happy.After finishing the farm work, he packed up most of the peaches and prepared to take them out to the acquaintances around him. This time, not only the players, but also the NPCs he was acquainted with, especially Mayor Li and Carpenter Qi. Those who claim to know his grandfather.

It stands to reason that it should be sent from a nearby place, but without hesitation, he ran directly to the library that was almost on the diagonal.

By taking the opportunity of sharing food, can I apologize by the way, so that the boss can calm down...?

"Are you looking for Brother Xiao?" The young man squatting near the bookshelf at the door raised his head and said in surprise, "Brother Xiao is not at work today, he is not here. If you want to borrow books, I can help you with the procedures."

"..."

Probably because the disappointed expression on Fang Shiqing's face was too obvious, the boy couldn't help but put down the half-arranged books and stood up: "Are you in a hurry to find him?"

"No... nothing."

He patted himself on the head to make himself look normal, "It's nothing, I just brought him something, since he's not here, I'll put it down here, please tell him later."

The door of the lounge was unlocked, Fang Shiqing went inside, and put the bagful of peaches he had prepared on the table.

The young man also followed in, and swallowed when he saw Taozi: "This is, is it you who planted it?"

Fang Shiqing simply brought another bag to him: "Yes, I still have a lot, you can take these back and eat with your family."

The boy's eyes lit up immediately: "Thank you! You are such a good person!"

He took the bag of peaches, smiled very happily, thought for a while and added: "By the way, the fish last time was also very delicious, much better than the fish rice bowl sold in the store!"

No matter what time it is, being praised by others is something to be happy about, and Fang Shiqing's affection for the young man suddenly increased greatly.

The boy put away most of the peaches, but he still couldn't resist taking out one. He washed it and sat down happily to eat.

"Peaches are so sweet!" He said inarticulately, "Fengyue Town doesn't produce these, I have to come back in summer, and I have only eaten them twice so far. It's so delicious, so delicious, you... ...By the way, what's your name?"

"...Fang Shiqing."

"Hey, Brother Fang," he didn't recognize his life, and started to befriend him, "You are a farmer, right? Do you have any shortage of employees? Can I go to work with you? I don't need wages, give me peaches Enough!"

"..." Fang Shiqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Aren't you working in the library now?"

"I'm just here as a temporary volunteer." He gnawed the whole peach in two or three bites. "There is no work in the library. After all the old books are registered and sorted, I won't have much work. It will only take ten days at most."

"Won't it be autumn in a few days, don't you have to go back to the neighboring town to go to school?"

"..."

At this point, a shadow passed over the boy's face, and he pretended not to care and smiled, "I won't go, I won't go. Anyway, my grades have not been good."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

This is probably the last time Brother Xiao was so aggrieved... Probably, next time he can't bear it anymore

(x)

If you want to talk about why he doesn't confess directly... because he doesn't know why the other party keeps avoiding him, even if he knows that the other party has a good impression of him, but maybe the other party doesn't want to fall in love with men, or he is just single and doesn't want to fall in love, or simply Sexual unrequited love, or some other messy concern.And in his opinion, there is no difference between the words he has said and the confession.

If you want to talk about why you don't directly let the other party understand... Don't look at him like this, Brother Xiao is actually a very old-fashioned person (.)
