Volume 6: Summer Chapter 64: Greenery
The sun was still bright on Wednesday morning, but after noon, there were a few and then rain began to fall.
Jiang You stood on the steps and watched the rain for a while.
Raindrops fell from the eaves in strings. He reached out and caught a few drops in his palm. Then he clapped his hands, turned around, and said to Lin Yu: "I guess the afternoon's sound will be ruined. Look how dark it is now."
Lin Yu checked the weather and said, "It will rain until night."
Jiang You asked: "What time will it end?"
"It will turn into light rain in the evening and will clear up at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Jiang You went to the kitchen and got two boxes of matcha flavored ice cream. As soon as he stepped out of the kitchen door, he heard Lin Yu calling him, "Brother Jiang, please write a few words on the postcard and I'll take a picture of it."
“What are you filming for?”
Lin Yu explained: "The video that is used as the main picture of Taobao can also be made into a short video, and then a shopping link can be added, which may generate some sales."
"That's fine." Jiang You handed a box of ice cream to Lin Yu, who ate while picking postcards from the shelf. He pulled out a postcard with a picture of a stone bridge and a carved building in the drizzle, and raised it to Lin Yu, "How about this one?"
"Write a few more." Lin Yu said.
Hearing this, Jiang You picked out a few landscape paintings of similar style, and went upstairs to get a pen and a seal.
Lin Yu walked to the long table with his cell phone.
Jiang You ate the ice cream in a few bites, pulled up a chair, sat down, got ready, and started writing.
After Lin Yu took pictures for a while, he turned on the beauty function of the camera and took pictures for a while. He said: "Change to a brush and write."
"Why?" Jiang You asked.
Lin Yu replied: "The color of the skin on the back of your hand is uneven, and it is still visible even with the beauty filter turned on. Hold the brush higher so you don't have to clap."
"How can I write if I hold it too high?" Jiang You put the pen on the table. "Wait until Tang Butian comes tonight, and you can ask her to write it. "
"Write, write. I'll go buy some brushes and ink."
Jiang You glanced at the rain outside the door and said, "There's some upstairs. I'll get it down."
After a while, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were ready.
The brush was dipped in ink.
Just as he was about to start writing, Lin Yu stopped Jiang You again, "What are you going to write?"
"What do you suggest?"
"There are some very popular phrases on the Internet right now. I'll find them for you." Lin Yu said as he opened the memo, copied the contents, and sent it to Jiang You.
Jiang You looked at the message, he put his phone aside and muttered, "You run the store, you have the final say."
Then I started writing.
One wrote, the other took photos. After more than ten minutes, all nine postcards were finished and laid out to dry.
Lin Yu watched the video he had taken.
Jiang You asked him, "How is it?"
"That's enough."
"That's great. Next time my son draws, take a picture of him too."
"That's no problem."
Jiang You stood up, stretched, and walked a few steps in the store. He asked Lin Yu: "Have you felt anything recently?"
"What?"
"Where's your ball?"
Lin Yu took out the black ball from his pocket and said, "I have been carrying it with me. If I were to say, "I think there is something extra in my mind."
"What exactly?"
"I can't explain it clearly, it's very mysterious. Also, let me show you." Lin Yu looked around and said, "I'll go to the yard."
"It's raining, let's move the table to the side."
"It's okay. The rain is lighter now."
As he spoke, Lin Yu walked into the yard.
He stood still, threw the black ball upwards, and then performed a set of boxing exercises in the rain. The black ball spun at high speed, flying around his body along with the fist intention.
…
Guan Qingtong walked into the yard holding an umbrella in one hand and holding up her skirt with the other.
Her eyes were attracted by Lin Yu.
He kicked down hard, and a few drops of water splashed in the cracks of the bluestone slabs soaked by rain. His fist dispersed the rain with a strong wind. The black ball was very fast, leaving a series of black light bands in the sight.
Lin Yu was boxing with great concentration.
Jiang You noticed Guan Qingtong.
Guan Qingtong smiled gently, she walked around Lin Yu, walked past the swing and went up the stairs.
Jiang You watched her let down her skirt and slowly put away her umbrella.
Guan Qingtong said: "He has become enlightened."
“He’s more focused.”
Guan Qingtong watched Lin Yu boxing for a while and said, "He is more suitable to learn Zhuang Zekun's boxing than Guan Nuo."
"Perhaps ."
"Are you going to let him figure it out all the time?"
Jiang You looked at the bulging muscles on Lin Yu's arms and said, "I think he is suitable for using a hammer, a meteor hammer."
…
Lin Yu was boxing.
Under the gloomy sky, the rain poured down with a gray-silver gleam, and the sound of water filled his ears and eyes. His fist broke the water curtain, and he saw the tree, the camphor tree, with green and shiny leaves, no, there were spots of light dancing on the leaves, and then, layers of various greens came to his eyes, and the spots of light filled the whole yard.
Under his feet, the grass grew out of the soil, was bent by the raindrops, and then stood up stubbornly. The lush and thick leaves in the flower bed swayed in waves of green shadows, and the raindrops seemed to be stained with green...
He paused.
The black ball stopped thirty centimeters in front of him.
He saw the black tide surging in the black ball, and he saw shadows of words in the tide, and one ancient word after another flowed through his vision.
Suddenly I understood.
He seemed to hear Jiang You's voice.
Meteor hammer.
Black light burst out from the small ball.
Thunder roared, lightning flashed in the dark clouds, and raindrops slammed onto Lin Yu's face and body. Black light enveloped his body.
…
"Aren't you going to help?" Guan Qingtong asked.
Jiang You said: "This is my yard."
Guan Qingtong looked in the direction of the camphor tree for a long time, then she said, "Lao Zhuang asked me to ask you if you are willing to give him the core, and he will exchange it for something else."
Jiang You said: "This is my tree."
…
pain.
Black light enveloped his body and pierced his skin, causing him to bleed profusely.
He gritted his teeth, endured and persevered.
An unknown amount of time had passed before the black light gradually solidified into chains that wrapped around his wrists.
He grabbed the chain and watched the light move forward. When it was in the front, the black light exploded again. Lin Yu took a step back. Then, he felt his hands sink. He looked down and saw that at the end of the chain was a black sphere covered with spikes, a meteor hammer.
He felt his body go limp, and then a hand supported him.
He raised his head, "Jiang You..."
Jiang You picked up the lock and said, "It's cute."
As soon as he finished speaking, the hammer suddenly became smaller and turned into a bracelet that was wrapped around Lin Yu's wrist.
