Chapter Twenty-Three: Robbery of Treasures
When Lin Xun and his party returned to Scarlet Cloud Village with a full harvest, it immediately caused a great sensation.
Snow leopard!
One-horned lizard!
Many of the villagers had never seen such a beast with their own eyes, so when they heard about it, they all gathered around.
Zhou Zhong and they are also very proud, they have hunted for so many years, they have also hunted countless beasts, but it is also the first time they have brought the corpse of a fierce beast home, and they can imagine how happy they are in their hearts.
At this time, in the courtyard where Lin Xun lived, the ground was full of various harvests, and a dazzling array of spiritual materials were spread all over the ground.
But the most attractive thing is the skin, bones, tendons, flesh, blood and so on that were dissected from the snow-spotted leopard and the one-horned scale lizard.
The eyes of the villagers all fell on it, and their faces were full of amazement and envy.
Although there are also many cultivators in the village, such as Lian Rufeng or a powerhouse at the "Kaifu" level of the Zhenwu Sanchong Realm, even Lian Rufeng has never hunted a fierce beast like the snow-spotted leopard, let alone a fierce beast that is stronger than the snow-spotted leopard, such as the one-horned scale lizard.
And when they heard that the snow-spotted leopard was hunted by Lin Xun alone, the eyes of those villagers looking at Lin Xun changed.
A thirteen-year-old boy who killed an adult snow-spotted leopard alone!
For the villagers, it was as if they wanted to hear a legendary story, and they were unconsciously in awe of Lin Xun.
"Zhou Zhong, you have gained so many treasures, what are you going to do with it next?" someone suddenly asked.
On the way, Lin Xun and Zhou Zhong had already discussed, except for some of the spiritual materials collected by Lin Xun for his own use, the others were used as materials in the village, and when they had the opportunity, they would be sold by the Qingyang tribe in exchange for other materials.
As for the things on the two fierce creatures, the snow-spotted leopard and the one-horned scale lizard, they will be used for their own use and will not be exchanged.
After all, such a treasure is easy to get, and who would bear to sell it?
Zhou Zhong glanced at Lin Xun, and when he saw the other party nodding with a smile, he immediately puffed up his chest and said, "Everyone, I have already discussed with Brother Lin Xun, although this snow-spotted leopard and one-horned scale lizard were brought back by us, but we are all people of the same village, like brothers and sisters, and the flesh and blood from the two fierce beasts naturally have everyone's share." ”
Hearing this, all the villagers let out a burst of cheers, overjoyed, who would have thought that there would be such a good thing.
You must know that although they are all villagers of Scarlet Cloud Village, each family's property is private, and it is not uncommon for Lin Xun to take out things for everyone to share like this, but it has never happened that he can take out the two fierce beasts he hunted and distribute them to everyone!
"Hahaha, in that case, then give me a copy of the skin and blood of the snow-spotted leopard, as well as the scales of the one-horned lizard!"
Suddenly, the crowd was pushed away, and Lu Ting strode over, his eyes greedily swept over the bodies of the snow-spotted leopard and the one-horned scale lizard, and he opened his mouth.
Behind Lu Ting, the thin and lean Qian Qi didn't know when to follow, and was looking at all this with his arms crossed and coldly, and his gaze couldn't help but become hot when he occasionally swept over the loot on the ground.
Suddenly, the atmosphere was a little cold, and many people frowned.
The things that Lu Ting looked at were the most valuable in the snow-spotted leopard and the one-horned scale lizard, and he asked for it so directly, which was naturally disgusting.
Even Zhou Zhong's face became ugly, he said very clearly just now, what was distributed to everyone was the blood and flesh of the two fierce beasts, and nothing else was included.
Lu Ting didn't seem to notice the eyes of others, and stepped forward to take it himself.
Zhou Zhong couldn't hold back any longer, and said, "Stop! these things are not yours!"
Lu Ting frowned, with a fierce look on his face: "Stupid, you are not cultivators, how can you use such treasures? ”
As he spoke, he grabbed the snow-spotted leopard skin, looking arrogant and arrogant.
Boom!
A pale cyan blade was in front of Lu Ting, causing him to stagnate, and his cheek muscles couldn't help twitching, and then he straightened up, looking at Lin Xun opposite with resentful eyes: "Do you still want to do it?"
Before the words fell, I saw Qian Qi pacing from a distance with his arms crossed, his expression cold.
The atmosphere became tense for a moment.
Lin Xun smiled and groaned: "This is the fierce beast I killed, do you want to take something, with my consent?"
Although he was smiling, the pale blue short blade in his palm pointed at Lu Ting steadily.
"Yes, this is Brother Lin Xun's trophy. ”
"Lu Ting, you're going too far. ”
The others were babbling.
Because of Lin Xun's help to eradicate the insect pest in Lingtian, those villagers had already regarded him as their own in their hearts, so they naturally wouldn't watch him being bullied by Lu Ting.
Lu Ting's face suddenly became gloomy, and he shouted violently: "Shut up! Do you have the right to interject here? I don't look at these years, if it weren't for Lao Tzu and Brother Lian Rufeng guarding the village together, you wouldn't have survived a long time ago! Now you dare to help an outsider target me, it's simply impatient!"
Those villagers all changed color, and their hearts were shocked and angry, but they had to admit that they had indeed relied on Lu Ting and them to transport goods to the Qingyang tribe over the years, in exchange for the materials needed for life.
It's just that in the past year, Lu Ting and the others have exchanged less and less materials, which has already caused dissatisfaction and complaints among the villagers.
It's a pity that the villagers can only hold back this anger in their hearts, after all, if they want to survive in the future, they still need Lu Ting's help to go to the Qingyang tribe to exchange materials.
Seeing that no one objected to him anymore, Lu Ting couldn't help but sneer proudly, but when he looked at Lin Xun, his face became gloomy again.
"Boy, give me a good word, do you give it or not?" Lu Ting's tone obviously carried a hint of threat.
At this time, Qian Qi also looked at Lin Xun, cold and terrifying.
He originally didn't plan to tear his face with Lin Xun in the village, so as not to provoke public anger, but when he saw the snow-spotted leopard and the one-horned scale lizard, the greed in his heart was irrepressible, and he couldn't care so much.
If Lin Xun dared to resist death this time, then Qian Qi wouldn't mind teaching the other party a painful lesson in full view!
Lin Xun naturally noticed the unkindness in Qian Qi's eyes, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, these two guys are really arrogant, they even rob things so justifiably.
"Do you want it?, it's easy, beat me first!"
Lin Xun said casually, his expression relaxed and calm, and a smile hung on the corner of his lips.
"Look for death!"
Lu Ting smiled fiercely, and glanced at Qian Qi without a trace, Qian Qi comprehended, paced from the side, and blocked Lin Xun's retreat.
Seeing this, the villagers were all angry, who would have thought that Lu Ting and Qian Qi would become so shameless and arrogant.
Zhou Zhong was worried, and whispered to Lin Xun: "Why don't you ...... Just give them some?"
The implication is that heroes don't suffer immediate losses, and for the sake of their own lives, they can only endure it.
Lin Xun said categorically: "This matter is non-negotiable. ”
"That's how it should be!"
At this moment, a loud shout sounded, and the tall figure of the village chief Xiao Tianren appeared in the courtyard.
Seeing Xiao Tianren appear, all the villagers were in high spirits, as if they had found the backbone, and the corners of Lin Xun's lips also flashed with a smile.
If it is left at another time, Lin Xun will also choose temporary forbearance, and then choose the time to settle accounts with the other party.
But now it's different, Lin Xun had already expected that Xiao Tianren would definitely not sit idly by, so he dared to resist Lu Ting and Qian Qi alone.
Xiao Tianren's appearance made Lu Ting and Qian Qi frown, but they immediately returned to their original state, obviously, they didn't care much about Xiao Tianren in their hearts.
Xiao Tianren's expression was majestic at this time, his eyes swept at Lu Ting and Qian Qi, and he shouted in a deep voice: "You two are so bold!
After a pause, Xiao Tianren said with a calm expression: "Today you robbed Lin Xun's things, will you also rob other people's things tomorrow?"
Hearing this, the other villagers were shocked, yes, this Lu Ting is so arrogant, if he grabs his own home in the future, what can he do?
For a moment, they all looked at Lu Ting with a touch of hatred in their eyes.
Lu Ting frowned, impatient in his heart, and pointed at Xiao Tianren and said, "Old man Xiao, we have always respected you all these years, don't be embarrassed!"
One sentence made Xiao Tianren's face gloomy.
Lin Xun on the side sneered in his heart, this Lu Ting is really a fool, doing this will only make all the villagers disgusted with him.
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's true that we misunderstood today, let's go. ”
Suddenly, Qian Qi spoke, grabbed Lu Ting's arm and walked out.
"What are you doing here? The snow-spotted leopard skin is gone, and the scales of the one-horned lizard are gone? That might be forging a good pair of armor!"
Lu Ting shouted, struggling to resist, but was dragged away by Qian Qi.
Seeing this, although Xiao Tianren's face was still ugly, he was obviously relieved, and when he saw that all the villagers next to him were looking at him, he couldn't help but be upset for a while, and waved his hand: "Okay, it's okay, let's all retreat." ”
Everyone also knew that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time at this time, so they left one after another, and soon only Lin Xun, Xiao Tianren, and Zhou Zhong were left.
There were no outsiders, Xiao Tianren suddenly sighed and said: "I didn't expect them to be so arrogant, alas." ”
Lin Xun smiled and replied to the question: "That Qian Qi is a smart person, knowing that after you came, they couldn't bargain for anything." ”
Xiao Tianren shook his head and said: "This is just temporary, they failed to grab it this time, I am afraid that they will find another opportunity to come to the door again." ”
Lin Xun nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Uncle Xiao, if one day suddenly these two people disappear, what would you think?"
The implicit meaning of this sentence is, if I have the opportunity to kill Lu Ting and the others, will you object to the village chief?
Looking at Lin Xun's clear and calm gaze, Xiao Tianren's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he said decisively after a long while: "It's best to disappear, it is beneficial and harmless to all the villagers of Scarlet Cloud Village!"
Lin Xundeng smiled, this was exactly the answer he wanted.
