Chapter 34: The Storm is Coming

Gollum~~

In the courtyard, a pile of phosphowood burned violently, and a large cauldron on the fire emitted white smoke and boiled.

There are dozens of spiritual materials boiling in the iron pot, including the flesh and blood of fierce beasts, as well as some herbs.

This is not refining medicine, but smelting spiritual ink.

Generally speaking, the spirit pattern master needs a special "ink furnace" to smelt the spirit ink, which is specially smelted and cast.

Some precious ink furnaces are even engraved with many spiritual patterns inside, as if they are no different from spiritual weapons.

However, Lin Xun can't refine the ink furnace now, and if he wants to smelt the spirit ink, he can only use the iron pot first.

The effect of the spiritual ink smelted in this way is ordinary, and it is extremely wasteful of spiritual materials, but it can be used for a while.

Like at this moment, what Lin Xun was smelting was a pot of "Red Fire Spirit Ink".

The recipe of the Red Fire Spirit Ink is very common, but with different spirit materials, the effect of refining the Spirit Ink is indeed completely different.

For example, the same kind of spiritual material "hydrangea" for refining red fire spirit ink has a high and low grade, three-leaf hydrangea is the most common, but the effect is ordinary, and nine-leaf hydrangea is the rarest, and the effect is also the best.

The furnace "Red Fire Spirit Ink" refined by Lin Xun can only be regarded as medium in terms of the quality of various spiritual materials, neither high nor low, but it is enough to meet his needs.

While smelting the spiritual ink, Lin Xun was not idle in his hands, he was holding a half-foot-long, about the thickness of chopsticks, and a dark purple bone all over his body, polishing it over and over again on the whetstone.

This dark purple bone, taken from the leg bone of the fierce beast "Iron-beaked Mountain Pheasant", is itself a rather precious spiritual material.

Its preciousness lies in the fact that it can be used to refine seal pens!

Seal pen, the tip of the pen is as sharp as a knife, is the key tool for seal carving spirit pattern, so it is also called the pattern knife.

Judging the quality of a seal pen, you only need to look at its material, the more high-quality the seal pen, the easier it is to communicate the perception and spiritual power of the spirit tattoo master.

Similarly, when the high-grade seal pen carves the spirit pattern, it can allow the spirit pattern master to accurately control the power of the spirit ink, and the spirit pattern track carved by the seal, regardless of the shade, thickness, and straightness, can perfectly meet the needs of the spirit pattern master.

After the dark gray seal pen left by Mr. Lu disappeared, Lin Xun lacked a hand seal pen to exercise the way of spiritual patterns.

But fortunately, among the prey obtained this time, there happened to be an "iron-beaked pheasant", and its leg bones were a kind of spiritual material for refining seal pens.

Snort!

Under Lin Xun's continuous polishing, the dark purple bones made a friction sound, and sparks flew everywhere, faintly showing the prototype of a seal pen.

Around the courtyard, there are full of snow-white beast skeletons, and the walls are hung with already pickled animal meat, which is full of thousands of catties, like a mountain of meat.

In addition, animal skins, tendons, and various scales, claws, and horns were all divided one by one and piled up in an orderly manner.

These are all valuable treasures, which can be used to refine medicines, smelt spiritual ink, and can also be exchanged for property.

These are the results of Lin Xun's efforts these days.

Xiao Tian let the group bring back too much harvest, and the fierce beast corpses distributed to Lin Xun alone were nearly thirty.

As for the other beasts and beasts, there were even more, but these were of little use to Lin Xun, and they were all distributed to every household in the village.

Therefore, Lin Xun is not only busy these days, but the villagers are also getting up early at home to pickle animal meat in the dark, lest it will spoil the animal meat after a long time.

It was not until he was busy until today that Lin Xun dissected the corpses of various fierce beasts one by one, and eliminated all the useless, leaving only valuable things.

......

There was a strong fishy smell in the courtyard, but Lin Xun was unconscious, concentrating on sharpening the dark purple bones in his hands.

After a full stick of incense.

This seal pen was completely formed, Lin Xun got up and washed off the dust on the surface of the seal pen with clear spring water, revealing the true face of the seal pen.

Under the sun, this seal pen is slender and straight, the whole body presents a faint dark purple, the pen body is calm and simple, the pen is like a blade, thin as a cicada wing, and it is glaring cold.

Lin Xun quietly felt the seal pen in his hand, and separated wisps of spiritual power to run in it, feeling the subtleties in it.

After a long while, the corners of his lips showed a satisfied smile, there is no problem with the seal pen itself, just use unique means and spiritual materials to quench and nurture the seal pen, even if it is done.

At this time, the iron pot on the fire made a sharp boiling sound, as if it was about to explode.

The spirit ink is coming out!

Lin Xundeng didn't care about anything else, put out the fire with his hands, and watched the iron pot cool down, then he took out a white and clean porcelain bowl and walked to the iron pot.

A pot full of spiritual materials has now been refined to the point that only a layer of amber-like liquid is left at the bottom of the pot, bright red and translucent, and there seems to be a flame burning on the surface, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

This is the Red Fire Spiritual Ink!

It looks like a successful elixir, but it's not meant to be swallowed.

Lin Xun carefully put the "Red Fire Spirit Ink" into the porcelain bowl, and the smile on the corner of his lips was a little more, and when it was night, he could use it to engrave the spirit pattern.

"Can you eat it?"

I don't know when, Xia Zhi has come to Lin Xun's side, pointing to the red fire spirit ink and asking, his voice is quiet and pleasant.

But the content of the words startled Lin Xun, and he quickly shook his head: "This is not food, you will be poisoned if you eat it." ”

Xia Solstice sighed, so he didn't say anything more and stood quietly aside.

"I'll make you something to eat in the evening. ”

Lin Xun touched Xia Zhi's little head, then turned around and walked into the house.

Xia Zhi frowned, as if she was a little resistant to being touched by Lin Xun's head, she stood there and thought for a long time, and finally decided not to worry about Lin Xun anymore.

Speaking of which, this five or six-year-old girl is indeed very special, completely different from other children, with a quiet personality and few words, but her learning ability is amazing, and she has extraordinary intelligence.

These days, when Lin was free, she communicated with Xia Zhi, but she didn't expect that in just a few days, she could identify the meaning of every sentence and say some simple words.

Like, "Can I eat this?", "I'm not full", "I still want to eat", "Is there anything else to eat?", "This tastes good"......

It's no wonder that Lin Xun regarded the summer solstice as a beautiful snack, and it is not difficult to see some clues from the words she said.

......

In the evening, the village chief Xiao Tianren walked into the small courtyard of Lin Xun's house.

He was in a hurry, and as soon as he saw Lin Xun, he directly expressed his intention: "It's ready, and you can set off tomorrow morning." ”

Lin Xun smiled: "It's faster than I expected." ”

Just a few days ago, Lin Xun and Xiao Tianren discussed it, and finally decided to take advantage of the fact that Lian Rufeng and his party did not return, and first move all the villagers in the village to a safe place.

This is also to prevent the safety of the villagers from being affected when Lian Rufeng and them come back.

Although it is not clear what Lian Rufeng and the others are planning, both Lin Xun and Xiao Tianren know very well that it is destined not to be a good thing.

"Haha, speaking of which, this time we also lost that beast disaster, so that we got a lot of prey, and the food pickled from these prey is enough for all the villagers to hide outside for a while. ”

Xiao Tianren laughed.

Lin Xun also laughed and said, "Uncle Xiao, then it's decided, tomorrow you take everyone to the abandoned mine road, take shelter first, and when I solve Lian Rufeng and them, we will have no worries." ”

Xiao Tianren nodded, and then asked with a serious expression: "Lin Xun, this matter is too dangerous, if you fail in the end, don't fight hard, it's a big deal, let's just admit defeat, can they even dare to kill us all? ”

Lin Xun's eyes were clear and calm, and he said: "Uncle Xiao, maybe other villagers have a way to retreat, but if you and I fail, we are doomed to death and no life, so this competition must be won!"

In the voice, there is already determination.

Xiao Tianren knew that Lian Rufeng had endured himself for a long time, and those who seized the opportunity were destined not to let themselves live again.

He also knew that after killing Lu Ting and Qian Qi, Lin Xun had no choice but to retreat, either kill Lian Rufeng or be killed by Lian Rufeng.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianren's heart couldn't help but be heavy, and his worries were pale: "Then are you ready?"

Lin Xun nodded: "It's the last step." ”

Xiao Tianren patted Lin Xun on the shoulder and said, "Take care, if you lose, you must escape, these three thousand mountains are so big, as long as you escape, even Rufeng can't help you, don't forget to lose your life for everyone." ”

Lin Xun felt a touch of warmth in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Uncle Xiao, I know it in my heart." ”

Seeing this, Xiao Tianren stared at Lin Xun for a long time, then turned to leave.

It's just that when he walked out of the door, he suddenly said: "Living, more important than everything, must be remembered." ”

The voice was old, drifting in the evening like blood ink.

Lin Xun smiled, then turned around and returned to the room, yes, only by being alive can you have a chance to take revenge, and if you die, everything is over.

He understood this early on.

Early the next morning, a group of villagers left the village with their bags and under the leadership of Xiao Tianren.

They are just ordinary people, not cultivators, and they are powerless to fight against cultivators, staying in the village is a burden, and it will only affect Lin Xun.

Lin Xun stood at the entrance of the village and watched them leave, then turned around and returned, looking at the cold and empty village, his expression was as calm as before.

The autumn wind is bleak, and I don't know when it starts, the sky is covered with a layer of lead clouds, which makes the heaven and earth have a touch of oppressive atmosphere.

Although Lian Rufeng and the others have not yet returned, Lin Xun knows that this time is not far away......

"You want to fight?"

When Lin Xun returned to the door, he saw Xia Zhi wearing a beast skin cloak, and he didn't know when he was waiting there.

Lin Xun snorted, he knew that with this little girl's cleverness, it would be difficult to hide from her.

"I'll help you. ”

Xia Solstice raised his head, revealing a beautiful face hidden under his hat, and his crescent moon eyes, which were as clear as black jewels, were full of seriousness.

PS: At the end of writing, I can't help but think of the summer solstice sister-in-law Liang said in the group a few days ago, you want to hit the monthly ticket list?

A simple single sentence, moved to my heart, the old man is warm, thank you here, but also thank you for your rewards and cheers these days, writing a book is never a one-person battle, and everyone walks side by side, in order to create real brilliance.
