A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 1158: The Land of the Ship and the Chaotic Colorful Balls
"Grandpa…He went back to the sea.
" Just like the other elders of the Su Clan, one night not long after you left, he stood up by himself and walked from the beach to the waves without saying anything.
"I chased him all the way and was almost swept away by the waves."
Little Stone lowered his head and said.
" After Grandfather left, Xuan Kunzi came once. After he learned of Grandfather's death, he returned to the sea and never appeared again.
"Without Xuan Kunzi, I'm the only one left at the dock.
" The Nagas are fighting fiercely at sea, and there are not many travellers who want to cross the sea. I've been eating coconuts and raspberries for two months, and I'm really hungry. I can only come to the city to make a living.
"I never wanted to be a thief…"
Matthew sighed softly.
On the Gold Coast, there were quite a number of descendants of the Su, such as Little Stone. Because they did not have the skills to make a living, they could only engage in various grey and black industries.
Yu Lian was the same.
However, he was one of the very few who could make a name for themselves.
Considering that he had met Little Stone once before.
Matthew rolled his eyes.
He then asked,
"Can you read?"
Little Stone nodded.
"I will. Grandpa taught me when I was still alive.
"But I always write on the beach. I haven't touched paper and pen."
Matthew waved his hand.
"That's fine.
"If you're willing to follow me, I can arrange a job for you. This job won't make you rich, but it will definitely ensure that you don't have to worry about food and clothing."
Little Stone asked excitedly,
"What do you want me to do?"
Matthew pondered and said,
"It's not a particularly complicated matter, but you have to follow a damn fatty all day long. Record his food, clothing, and accommodation, and report to me regularly."
Little Stone jumped up excitedly.
But soon, he looked nervous.
"I'm afraid that my skills aren't good enough, and the other party will easily see through me."
Matthew smiled.
"You don't have to hide it from him. Just record it truthfully in front of him. He won't mind."
Little Stone was surprised.
"Really?
"Then he's really nice…
"Oh, right, who is he?"
Matthew said calmly,
" The City Lord of Cordor City. His name is Yu Lian."
Little Stone was slightly startled.
His face revealed a look of disbelief.
"But, but…"
Matthew raised his eyebrows.
"What's wrong?
"Scared?"
Little Stone hesitated for a moment, then immediately puffed out his chest.
"I'm not afraid!
"I believe in you!
" Grandfather and Xuan Kunzi have both mentioned that you're an extraordinary big shot. Whatever you say is true!"
Matthew nodded in satisfaction.
"Peggy, take him to the City Lord's Mansion."
Matthew arranged.
He did this not because he did not trust Yu Lian but because he wanted Yu Lian to be at ease.
To a certain extent.
The people Matthew had planted around Yu Lian might even become his amulet.
Matthew believed him.
With Yu Lian's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to see this.
Therefore, before they left.
He even specially reminded Peggy through the Undead Contract,
"Oh right, remember to tell Yu Lian that Little Stone's salary has to be paid by him."
After listening to it, Peggy was very emotional.
"As expected of you, Matthew!
"But I like your thrifty style.
"But what about my salary?
"It can't be to the extent of letting Yu Lian pay me, right?"
Matthew thought for a moment.
"It's not impossible…
"Didn't he say that he was good at making money? You can ask him if he has a way to get Soul Crystals."
Peggy couldn't help but give Matthew the middle finger.
Then, she wanted to lead Little Stone away from this place.
But at this moment.
Little Stone suddenly turned around.
"Can you go somewhere with me?"
Matthew thought for two seconds and nodded in agreement.
Ten minutes later.
On the outskirts of Cordor City.

Under a dying coconut tree.
Little Stone climbed up from the pit that was half the height of a person. He was holding a wooden box in his arms, which was covered in mud and sand.
Little Stone patted the surface of the box and opened it.
There were only three things inside.
A piccolo;
a copper key;
A red triangular amulet;
"This is all that's left of the things my grandfather left me. There wasn't much to begin with."
Little Stone introduced them one by one,
"This piccolo is used to summon Xuan Kunzi. As long as you play this flute by the sea, Xuan Kunzi will come over on the waves.
"It used to be like this, but after Grandpa died, it didn't work anymore. I don't know what happened either.
"The key and the triangular thing seem to be related to Xuan Kunzi. These things are no longer useful in my hands. Why don't I give them to Lord Matthew as a souvenir?"
Matthew took the three items one by one.
He could feel that each item contained a trace of spirituality.
It didn't have enough spirituality.
Therefore, they could not become divine objects.
However, in the hands of the right person, these three items could be considered treasures.
"This is too precious."
Matthew shook his head.
However, Little Stone insisted,
"To me, having a chance to be an upright person is even more precious.
"For a long time after Grandpa died, I only wanted to find a job that could support myself. This is something I've always dreamed of. You made it come true, so there's nothing more precious than this."
Matthew held the box and pondered silently.
In the next moment.
He put away the items and handed three magic runes and a ring to Little Stone.
