But at this moment, the situation changed unexpectedly.

Zhong Guotao's face suddenly changed, and then he slammed into the toilet compartment, and heard an angry but helpless roar from inside.

A stench quickly spread in the toilet.

Xie Lang and the other four fled in despair.

The four of them ran all the way to the top of the stairs where they watched the ball before, and then they started laughing. Even Xie Lang was a little surprised when things turned out like this.

The fat man couldn't stop laughing, he covered his stomach and said, "Oh my god, I didn't expect that brat Zhong Guotao to defecate—"

"Please stop talking, Fatty." Jiang Shuai hurriedly stopped Fatty's disgusting speech, and then said, "When do you think Zhong Guotao will come out?"

"That depends on when he can wash his pants clean." The fat man smiled wickedly.

Lin Qiang was a little puzzled and asked Xie Lang why he could guess that Zhong Guotao would not be able to untie his belt, because from Xie Lang's confident appearance before, everything seemed to be within Xie Lang's expectations.

"Do you still remember that I took a look at Zhong Guotao's ball uniform earlier? The key is that place. I tied a concentric knot on his trouser belt. The concentric knot is our local custom and is prepared for newlyweds On the wedding night, the bride and groom tied a red ribbon and tied a concentric knot on it. This kind of concentric knot has only one characteristic, that is, it cannot be untied, and the harder it is pulled, the knot will be broken. There will be more and more, tighter and tighter, which symbolizes that the bride and groom will be together for a hundred years and will be united forever." Xie Lang explained to the other three.

Although Xie Lang told the truth, he concealed something. The concentric knot tied by Xie Lang was not an ordinary knot, but a small magic technique called the Knotting Curse.The knotting curse was learned by Xie Lang from an old man who used a wheelbarrow to transport live animals in the local mountainous area, because Xie Lang found that the way the old man tied the goods with rope was very strange every time, and no matter how bumpy the mountain road the goods he tied were Walking up has not been shaken off.

The appearance of knots has a history of thousands of years before the invention of writing.Inheritance and evolution a few years ago, not only various patterns and practical knots, but also magical knotting spells appeared.To put it simply, the rope that has been cast with the Knotting Curse has a certain connection with the caster, and can naturally be manipulated by the caster.

However, whether it is the charms of carpenters, stonemasons and other craftsmen, or this little knotting spell, only those who are deeply familiar with this industry can cast it. Using the mysterious power in it, if Xie Lang hadn't been proficient in this way since he was a child, coupled with his extraordinary talent, even if he knew how to tie knots and chant mantras, he would definitely not be able to exert its power.

Zhong Guotao came out of the toilet later, but he came back after the game. When he came out, he was dripping with water, like a drowned rat. He must have flushed cold water in the toilet for 10 minutes.

However, without the leadership of the captain Zhong Guotao, the computer department unexpectedly reversed the situation in the second half, and finally played a [-]-[-] draw with the mechanical department.

When the four were excitedly talking about Zhong Guotao's ugly behavior on the road, Jiang Shuai's cell phone rang.

The call was made by a girl, because Jiang Shuai's voice was very gentle, and he pretended to be low on purpose.

"Su Mu, I'm Jiang Chengcheng, you don't remember, it's the taller and fairer Shanghai native from Xie Lang's dormitory... Do you have any impression?" It turned out that the call was actually made by Su Mu , Jiang Shuai has long been conquered by Su Mu's demeanor. Although he knew that Su Mu was not looking for him, he also brazenly sold himself on the phone.

Hearing Su Mu's name, Xie Lang's heart sank suddenly, and he cried out, "Okay!"

Xie Lang only remembered at this time, and only then did he remember that he had promised Su Mu to meet in the cafeteria at noon, and he actually forgot about it after going to the haunted building.

"Looking for you." Jiang Shuai finally handed the phone to Xie Lang, but the look in Jiang Shuai's eyes was aggressive.

"Su Mu, I'm sorry—" Xie Lang said nonchalantly on the phone. After all, he broke the appointment, and he felt that Su Mu should be angry.

"I think you may be delayed by something. I'm still in the cafeteria. If you have time, I'll bring you the ebony. If it's not convenient for you now, we can make another appointment." Su Mu said Her voice was still very gentle, as if she wasn't angry at all.

"Okay, I'll come over quickly." Xie Lang returned the phone to Jiang Shuai, and then rushed towards the cafeteria.It's very wrong to miss an appointment, he can't make Su Mu wait for a long time.

Jiang Shuai, Lin Qiang, and Fatty looked at each other, as if they couldn't accept that a beauty like Su Mu would have a close relationship with Xie Lang. This situation was simply a typical case of flowers planted on cow dung.

When Xie Lang arrived at the school cafeteria, it was almost seven o'clock. At this time, there were not many students eating in the cafeteria, and Su Mu was a very dazzling existence, so Xie Lang quickly found her.

Su Mu was wearing light blue casual clothes, and she seemed to have a preference for light blue.

There are several dishes on the dining table, and they are all smoking. It seems that they have just been fried.

"You haven't eaten yet. I ordered these dishes for you. You should eat first." Su Mu said.

Su Mu's carefulness made Xie Lang feel even more sorry, and said, "Show me your ebony first, I'm really sorry at noon today."

"Why, are you in a hurry?" Su Mu asked, "If you are not in a hurry, you should eat first."

Of course Xie Lang was not in a hurry, and he was really hungry at this time, so he stopped being polite.

Su Mu was originally reading a magazine, but after a while, her gaze shifted from the magazine to Xie Lang, because Xie Lang's eating movements were a bit exaggerated, as if a person who had been hungry for a long time suddenly saw a table of royal guests. feast.

"Is it delicious?" Su Mu asked suspiciously. The food in the school cafeteria tasted very ordinary. She didn't understand why Xie Lang enjoyed it so much.

"Yeah." Xie Lang nodded, not noticing that his own eating behavior was somewhat indecent. Maybe the food in the cafeteria can only be regarded as mediocre to Su Mu, but to Xie Lang it is very good.

A few minutes later, Xie Lang had already cleaned up all the food on the table.

At this time, Xie Lang suddenly discovered that not far away, Fatty, Jiang Shuai and Lin Qiang were also eating, and they had been "watching" him.

After Xie Lang wolfed down his meal, Su Mu took out a black and red piece of wood from his backpack.

That ebony is very heavy to the touch, the wood grain is very delicate, and the cut surface is very smooth, just like a mirror.When Xie Lang's palm touched this square of ebony, he immediately felt a comfortable feeling.

Great material can always be enjoyed.In addition, Xie Lang could clearly feel the little finger of his left hand trembling slightly, as if that finger couldn't wait to turn this piece of wood into a perfect work.

From Xie Lang's eyes, Su Mu knew that it was a correct decision to give this ebony to Xie Lang this time, because only those who really appreciate it can make extraordinary works.Su Mu didn't rush to ask, she was waiting for Xie Lang to speak.

"Red in black, clear and delicate wood grain, excellent natural ebony." Xie Lang sighed, "Things made of this wood will never decay or fade, and can be used to make the immortal you want Weng, it couldn't be more suitable, it seems that you have put in a lot of effort."

"Hearing what you said, I knew I didn't find the wrong person. Then, I'll leave it to you." Su Mu said with a smile, put the wood back into the backpack, and handed it to Xie Lang. "The drawing is also in it. You can just follow the drawing, and it will be no problem to finish it within 20 days, right?"

"Of course there is no problem." Xie Lang promised.

"Oh, by the way, you don't have to worry about the salary, you will definitely be satisfied when the time comes." When she got up, Su Mu added.

Xie Lang's heart trembled. He really needed money, but for some reason, when the word money came out of Su Mu's mouth, it made him feel extremely uncomfortable and even aggrieved. He stood up abruptly. , said: "I don't want your money!"

His tone was firm and cold.

Su Mu couldn't help but froze for a moment, obviously she didn't know what she did wrong.

Xie Lang was also taken aback by his own words, and said in a low voice after a while, "I mean, I treat you as a friend rather than an employer, and I'm not helping you to make money."

"I'm... sorry, I didn't think of this, I'm sorry." Su Mu hurriedly apologized.

"It's okay, it's me... I'm too old-fashioned, don't take offense." Xie Lang said, "Don't worry, I will finish it on time. If there is any problem, I will contact you."

"Okay then, I'll go to self-study first." Su Mu replied, and looked at Xie Lang with some concern before leaving. She probably still didn't understand why Xie Lang was suddenly angry just now.

As soon as Su Mu walked away, Fatty, Jiang Shuai and Lin Qiang rushed over impatiently, asking Xie Lang to confess his relationship with Su Mu.

After a lot of talking, Xie Lang sent these three guys away.

As soon as the four returned to the dormitory, Zhong Guotao appeared.This time he didn't take Liu Xiaotong with him, looked at Xie Lang and the others with a livid face, and said after a while: "You guys had better forget about what happened in the afternoon."

"What's the matter, nothing happened this afternoon." The fat man said cooperatively, pretending to be ignorant.

Zhong Guotao warned the four of them with sharp eyes before leaving.

After a while, there was a burst of laughter in the dormitory.

After returning to the dormitory, Xie Lang collected the ebony good life, such a good material, it is natural to make an excellent work, otherwise it is a huge waste of materials, and I am sorry for Su Mu's treatment of himself. trust.Therefore, before carving the ebony into shape, he had to do some homework. First of all, he had to keep everything in the drawing in his chest. In addition, he had to fully understand the hardness and grain direction of the ebony, and so on. He also needs to find a quiet place where no one will disturb him, so that he can make it by himself.

What's more, this is Xie Lang's first time making something for a beautiful woman, if the things he makes are not eye-catching, he will lose face.
