Chapter 12: Annie's invitation

"Because, such a beautiful young lady deserves such a nice name, isn't it?"

Chu Tian smiled slightly.

And Annie's face became even more red.

"annoying!"

Annie left the church in a panic.

Women of this time period, even if they were thinking of returning from overseas, could not hold back Chu Tian's unpretentious, earthy words.

And David, who was about to come forward, saw this scene, his face was a little gloomy.

A Xing in the corner was also dejected.

Chu Tian glanced at the distance and saw Jiu Shu is slowly walking towards this side.

The next plot is the debate between Uncle Ninth and Father Wu, who want to reopen the church.

For this matter, Chu Tian did not want to intervene, just let him go according to the original development of the plot.

When he came to this world, it was only one of the tasks to complete the dungeon. The most important thing was that he wanted to learn more from Uncle Jiu.

Jiu Shu has many Maoshan secretaries on his body, and he has learned that it will be of great help for the dungeon of the Devil's Land after Chutian.

However, Ninth Uncle's character is extremely stubborn, and he is not the kind of person who sees money, so it is a bit difficult to learn from a teacher.

Chutian's top priority is to find a place to live first.

It's still early anyway.

He has a lot of time.

Thinking of this, he trotted to catch up with Annie.

"Annie, why did you suddenly run away?"

Chu Tian knew what he asked.

After seeing Chu Tian, ​​Annie's heart beat so fast that she couldn't even speak incoherently: "I...I have something to do, so I'll leave first, you..."

"Annie, are you a local? I just came here to start a business, but I haven't found a place yet. Can you help me find a place to live?"

Chu Tian smiled slightly.

Annie lowered her head, not daring to meet Chu Tian's eyes, her cheeks were crimson, and the little deer in her heart collided.

"I...Although I'm a local, I just came back from studying in the West, and I'm not familiar with everything here. If you want to live...you can come to my house, my house is just me and my father, except for the two of us. , the rest are some servants."

Annie didn't know where the courage came from, so she blurted out.

Chu Tian was a little surprised, he didn't expect Annie to be so flirtatious.

In the previous life, Chutian, when he was flirting with girls, it was useless to say a lot of love and swearing. He opened his mouth and closed his mouth and said: "Do you have a house, do you have a car? Do you have any savings? None of these, why should I fall in love with you."

Chu Tian couldn't help but feel a little emotional, it's still a good woman from before.

"Will this... be a little troublesome?"

Chu Tian pretended hesitantly said.

"No trouble, no trouble, what's this... I'm very happy that you can come, so I have one more person to talk to."

Annie looked at Chu Tiandao.

Chu Tian pretended to be a little embarrassed and nodded: "Alright then, that would be too much trouble for Miss Anne."

Annie happily pulled Chu Tian's arm and said, "That's great, then come with me. Hey, you're returning from overseas, where's your luggage?"

Chu Tian explained: "Oh, I met pirates at sea before. All my luggage was robbed, and I only had a few dollars on me."

"Is that so..." Annie nodded. "Then you will have a lot of trouble doing business. Jiuquan Town is different from foreign countries. They don't recognize foreign currencies."

"This..." Chu Tian was a little embarrassed, he just made an excuse before, he didn't expect Annie to ask himself.

Before Chutian could answer, Annie said again, "But it doesn't matter, my father has a lot of silver dollars, and I can lend you to you to use it for business."

The two said and came to Annie's mansion.

I saw two big characters on the mansion: "Lin Mansion!"

Only then did Chu Tian know that Annie's original surname was Lin.

When I watched the movie before, she was always called by her foreign name in the movie, and she didn't mention her native name at all.

"Father, there are guests at home!"

Annie came to the house and shouted towards the main hall.

An old man came out of the main hall. Seeing that Annie looked close to Chu Tian, ​​she was a little surprised: "Where is this little friend from? It doesn't seem to be from Jiuquan Town."

Chu Tian opened his mouth, but when he was about to speak, Annie took the lead and said, "Dad, this is a friend I just met who came back from overseas, just like me. His name is Chu Tian. It's just that he came from the United States. , I encountered pirates at sea before, and I want to stay at our house for a while."

Master Lin nodded and said, "This little friend Chutian has returned from the United States? Can you speak foreign language?"

Master Lin expressed doubts about Chu Tian's identity.

After all, people are old and sophisticated, and they are not as easy to fool as Annie.

Fortunately, Chutian's English level is not very good, but it's still no problem to fool Mr. Lin.

Chu Tian said in English: "Of course, I have returned from studying in the United States, and I can speak foreign languages. That's for sure."

"Oh, dad, why don't you believe him? He's doing well. He just donated ten dollars!"

Annie explained.

The ten dollars at this time is different from the ten dollars under the timeline of "I Am Legend".

In the early days of the Republic of China, 10 US dollars was roughly equivalent to twelve taels of silver at that time.

Mr. Lin is also a well-informed person. He was a little surprised when he heard that ten dollars were used for the donation.

Coupled with the fluent foreign language, Mr. Lin's vigilance suddenly dropped a bit.

But seeing his daughter's so kind appearance, he couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

"Father, he was robbed by pirates at sea. He has no domestic money, so he can't live in a shop. Do you think he can live in our house?"

Annie prayed.

Mr. Lin didn't know what Annie was thinking, so he immediately said, "Forget it, you can figure it out..."

"Really? Thank you Dad!"

Annie was overjoyed.

After settling down in the Lin Mansion, Chu Tian and Annie bought some daily necessities on the street. Unexpectedly, by coincidence, they ran into Uncle Ninth.

Uncle Jiu looked embarrassed and walked down the street without saying a word.

Behind him, followed by his apprentice A Xing.

"Master, I don't think it's a bad thing for them to revive the church. Why are you blocking it? In the end, they still called the mayor, but the mayor listened to them and decided to revive the church... Tell me What's the matter!"

Ah Xing grumbled and complained.

He looked completely absent-minded, and the figure of Annie appeared in his mind.

Unexpectedly, Annie was abducted by a strange man on the way, which made him extremely depressed.

Chu Tian, ​​who was shopping on the side, pricked up his ears and listened to Ah Xing's complaints, and roughly understood what happened to them.

Just like in the plot of the movie, Uncle Ninth did not agree to reopen the church, and in desperation, he approached the mayor to preside over justice.

But the mayor ignored Jiu Shu's objection and resolutely agreed to reopen the church.

However, unlike the original plot, Annie did not go to a meeting with the mayor and the others as in the plot, but was shopping with Chutian.

"Chu Tian, ​​what do you think about this thing..."

At this time, Annie suddenly came over and called out Chu Tian's name.

This made A Xing beside him stunned for a moment, and he looked at the voice subconsciously. When he saw Annie again, he couldn't help grinning.
