Chapter 8 The Maiden's Prayer

Chapter 8 A Girl’s Prayer

Lin Yu ate more than a dozen fist-sized oranges in succession, so his stomach didn't feel as uncomfortable as a knife.

These oranges were full of juice and sweeter than the oranges they had eaten before, and their hard work was not in vain.

"Okay, let's install these things today."

Lao Lin and Lin An filled all four backpacks, but there was still a lot left on the tree, so they had to pick it again next time.

Lin Yuzhu was under the tree, like an emotionless eating machine, still stuffing food into his mouth. Not only that, his pockets, the back of his hood, and all the pockets on his body that could be filled were full of oranges.

"Then let's go!"

The large, bulging backpack weighed more than ten kilograms, but several people carried it easily. Even Lin An didn't feel it weighed.

"An'an, is it heavy? Can you afford it?"

The slender little girl looked like she was carrying a big snail shell. She smiled and shook her head, "Mom, it's very light. Don't worry."

This should also be related to that magical power. Their physical fitness was suddenly improved overnight, just like taking Dali pills.

The journey back went smoothly. However, after the bloody battle, the few people no longer dared to be careless. Even Lin Yu, who was previously arrogant, became much more alert.

It wasn't until he opened the door and entered the house that Lin An finally felt at ease, "Mom, give it to me!"

After taking off Mother Lin's backpack and helping her sit down in the living room, Lin An quickly went to get the medical kit and disinfected and bandaged her injured arm.

Lao Lin was also lying on the sofa. Although the wound on his leg had healed, there was still throbbing pain inside, and he would probably need some time to recover.

Lin An filled a basin of hot water, brought it to the side of the sofa, and scrubbed and bandaged other minor wounds on Lao Lin's body.

As soon as Lin Yu got home, he put down his backpack and rushed to the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and saw a few cold buns in the crisper. He was so excited that he opened the lid and wanted to stuff them into his mouth.

The dozen or so oranges I ate before didn’t weigh on the scale at all, and they looked like they had not been eaten.

Mother Lin was also hungry, so she followed her into the kitchen. As soon as she came in, she saw this silly boy standing at the door of the refrigerator, ready to nibble on the cold buns, "You don't mind grinding your teeth!"

Mother Lin grabbed the crisper and put it in the microwave, "Wait a minute, heat it up for two minutes before eating!" Then she stuffed a piece of ham into his hand, "Eat this cushion first."

Lin Yu, who was standing next to the microwave oven, swallowed the ham sausage in a few big mouths and looked at the steamed buns buzzing inside. Two minutes was a long time.

Ignoring the inattentive glutton next to her, Mrs. Lin opened the refrigerator and started preparing to cook. It seemed that several people had not eaten for almost a day.

Thinking of the fright she had received today and the great physical exertion, Mother Lin decided to cook a sumptuous dinner.

Although the sun was shining brightly outside, Mother Lin was still used to calculating time according to the original world. It was already almost two o'clock in the morning.

After cleaning and bandaging Lao Lin's wounds, Lin An hurriedly came to the kitchen to help Lin's mother. Yu Lizhen was always a neat person and was very fast at work. Soon a table of dazzling meals was served on the table.

A pot of chili fried bacon, a pot of chicken stewed with vermicelli, a pot of tomato and egg soup, a plate of steamed sausages, a plate of steamed bacon, a pot of fried cauliflower, and a big bucket of rice!

The dishes were served in either pots or pots, and six dishes filled the table!

During the meal, almost no one spoke, only the sounds of chewing and swallowing were heard.

Lao Lin and An An, who didn't think they were hungry at first, didn't feel guilty until they ate. It turned out that they were not hungry, but they were just blinded by the inexplicable feeling of fullness.

After a hot meal, several people slumped on their chairs, their faces full of gluttony, and they didn't want to move.

"Old Lin, you can take a shower and get some sleep later."

Yu Lizhen looked at Lao Lin who couldn't hide his tiredness. For an idle man who had been sitting in an office for more than ten years, today was indeed a tough time for him.

Thinking of the way he resolutely stood in front of her at that time, Lin's mother's tone became a little gentler, "Let's take a rest first and we'll talk about the rest later. Fortunately, there are no problems with the water and electricity at home, so this saves a lot of trouble."

Otherwise, they still don't have a stable place to stay, and even if they did, it would definitely not be as comfortable as their own home.

"Indeed, is this house still connected to the water and electricity over there?"

"I don't know, maybe, it feels a bit like grafting new ideas on."

The two children didn't know whether they were exhausted or the shock to them today was too great. Seeing their languid expressions, Mother Lin took on the energy of a street organization and preached, "Okay, you've all eaten. When you're full, let's go."

Go take a shower and sleep, and keep your spirits up. Only by keeping your body and mind healthy and energetic can you win this unknown war!"

Lin An slept for too long before and didn't really want to sleep now. After her parents and Lin Yu went to bed, she took a shower and cleaned up the dishes.

The oranges I brought back were dried on the kitchen floor, and everyone's changed clothes were stuffed into the washing machine.

She did not dare to hang the clothes to dry on the outdoor balcony. After setting up a few chairs in the living room, she hung the clothes to dry in the ventilated living room.

After finishing these things, she sat down quietly on the sofa in the living room, leaning on the pillow and began to think about what had happened recently.

Two days ago, she was still thinking about how to improve her physics scores so that she could get more points in science. She hadn't yet understood the scientific issues, but something so unscientific happened.

To be honest, this made her doubt the authenticity of the knowledge she learned.

The girl with drooped eyelids is covering her bulging chest. It is not the melancholy of youthful development, but the entanglement of unknown power.

She saw how ferocious Lin Yu's black armor was, and her mother's little yellow talisman could repel monsters and cure diseases.

What about her? What kind of power will be born in her body?

In fact, she has always been afraid of unfamiliar environments, cruel monsters, and her life may be threatened at any time.

But what frightens her even more is that seeing them injured like this today makes her even more afraid to think about the terrible possibility.

Lin An closed his eyes, clutched his chest, and whispered softly as if making a wish, "If possible, I want to have the power to protect them."

The fresh warm wind made the clothes in the living room rustle, exuding the faint fragrance of jasmine laundry detergent.

The girl's prayer is like the sunlight reflected on the glass, crystal clear and pure.

"Why is this child asleep here?"

When Lin's mother woke up and came out of the room, she saw Lin An sleeping on the sofa.

The little girl frowned, as if she hadn't slept peacefully. Worried that she would catch a cold, Mother Lin went back to the room to find an air conditioner and put it on for her.

Seeing the clothes hung up in the living room and the clean dining table, Mother Lin smiled happily. This child always did things silently and rarely let her worry.

Considering the current situation, Mother Lin decided to prepare more dry food. She might not be able to pick oranges next time she went out. She had experienced the intense hunger, which affected her physical condition.

Mother Lin went to the kitchen to prepare some steamed buns and flower rolls, as well as some salted fish and eggs. She had to ensure that everyone's nutrition kept up.

Just as she was kneading the dough, she vaguely heard a noisy sound. In this quiet world, the sound became clearer and clearer.

Mother Lin stopped what she was doing, listened intently for a few seconds, and then walked to the balcony close to the corner.

It was almost dusk outside, and the sky was dyed gradually in shades of orange, giving the green deserted city a layer of bright honey color.

Such beautiful scenery was directly filtered through her eyes. Her eyes were fixed on the person who was running towards this direction. Behind him was a group of, God, at least dozens of flea people!

Just when she was about to retreat and hide behind the wall, the man suddenly turned his head and looked directly at her!

--Oops!

Yu Lizhen squatted down instantly, her heart pounding. Did that person see her?

Could he have lured those monsters over? If so many flea-men rushed in, they would definitely die!

Yu Lizhen did not dare to look out. After crawling into the living room with a low body, she hurriedly rushed into the room and pushed in panic, "Old Lin, get up quickly, something serious is going to happen!"
