Gollum~~

In the courtyard, a pile of phosphorus-burning wood was burning violently, and a large pot on the fire was boiling with white smoke.

Dozens of spiritual materials are boiled in the iron pot, including the flesh and blood of beasts, and some herbs.

This is not refining medicine, but refining spiritual ink.

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

Some precious ink stoves even have many spiritual patterns carved inside, which are no different from spiritual tools.

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

The effect of the spirit ink smelted in this way is ordinary, and it is extremely wasteful of spirit materials, but it can be used anyway.

At this moment, what Lin Xun is smelting is a pot of "Red Fire Spirit Ink".

The formula of red fire spirit ink is very common, but with different spirit materials, the effect of the spirit ink produced is indeed completely different.

For example, it is also a kind of spiritual material "Hydrangea", which is also used for refining red fire spirit ink.

The "Red Fire Spirit Ink" that Lin Xun refined, the quality of the various spirit materials can only be regarded as medium, neither high nor low, but it was enough to meet his needs.

While smelting the spiritual ink, Lin Xun was not idle. He was holding a half-foot-long bone, about the thickness of chopsticks, and the whole body was dark purple, which he polished on the sharpening stone over and over again.

This dark purple bone is taken from the leg bone of the fierce beast "Iron-beaked Mountain Pheasant".

It is a very precious spiritual material in itself.

Its preciousness is that it can be used to refine seal pens!

The seal pen, with its sharp tip like a knife, is the key tool for engraving the spiritual pattern of seal, so it is also called the pattern knife.

To judge the quality of a seal pen, you only need to look at its material. The better the seal pen, the easier it is to communicate the perception and spiritual power of the spirit tattoo artist.

In the same way, high-quality seal pens can allow the spirit tattoo artist to precisely control the power of the spirit ink when engraving the spirit patterns, and the traces of the engraved spirit patterns, no matter the thickness, thickness, or straightness, can perfectly meet the needs of the spirit tattoo artist. .

After the dark gray seal pen left by Mr. Lu disappeared, Lin Xun lacked a seal pen to practice the spirit pattern.

But fortunately, among the prey obtained this time, there happened to be a "Iron-beaked Mountain Pheasant" whose leg bone was a kind of spiritual material for refining seal pens.

Chi Chi!

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

Around the courtyard, there were piles of snow-white skeletons of fierce beasts, and on the walls hung the meat that had already been marinated.

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

These are all valuable treasures, which can be used to refine medicine, smelt spiritual ink, or exchange them for property.

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

Xiao Tianren and his party brought back too much, and the corpses of the beasts that were distributed to Lin Xun alone had nearly 30 heads.

As for other beasts and beasts, there are more, but these are not of much use to Lin Xun, and they are all distributed to each household in the village.

Therefore, these days, not only Lin Xun is busy alone, but the villagers are also pickling the animal meat at home, lest the meat will go bad over time.

It was not until today that Lin Xun dissected the bodies of all kinds of beasts one by one, and eliminated all the useless ones, leaving only the valuables.

...

There was a strong fishy smell in the courtyard, but Lin Xun seemed to be unaware, and concentrated on sharpening the dark purple bones in his hands.

After a full stick of incense.

The seal pen was completely formed, and Lin Xun got up and washed the dust off 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, showing a faint dark purple throughout.

Lin Xun Jing felt the seal brush from his own hands, and separated a wisp of spiritual power to run it, feeling the subtleties in it.

After a long while, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his lips. There is no problem with the seal brush itself, as long as the seal brush is tempered and nurtured with unique methods and spiritual materials, it will be done.

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

Lingmo is coming out!

Lin Xun didn't care about anything else, he put out the fire 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 where only a layer of amber-like liquid remains on the bottom of the pot, bright red and translucent, and a flame seems to be burning on the surface, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

This is Scarlet Fire Spirit Ink!

It looks like the elixir of success, but it is not for swallowing.

Lin Xun carefully put the "Red Fire Spiritual Ink" into the porcelain bowl, and the smile on the corner of his lips increased a bit. In the evening, he could use it to engrave the spirit pattern.

"Can I eat it?"

I don't know when, Xia Zhi has come to Lin Xun's side, pointed to the red fire Lingmo and asked, with a quiet and pleasant voice.

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

Xia Solstice sighed, and said no more, standing quietly on the side.

"I'll cook something for you tonight."

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

Xia Zhi frowned and seemed to resist being touched by Lin Xun. She stood there thinking for a long time, and finally decided not to care about Lin Xun anymore.

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

These days, when Lin Xun is free, she communicates with Xiazhi. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, she can identify the meaning of every sentence and say some simple words.

Like "Can this be eaten", "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 regards Xiazhi as a beautiful snack, and it is not difficult to see some clues from these words she said.

...

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

He was in a hurry, and as soon as he saw Lin Xun, he directly stated his intention: "It's ready, and you can leave 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 transfer all the villagers to a safe place before Lian Rufeng and his party returned.

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

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

"Haha, speaking of which, this time it was also due to the beast disaster, which allowed us to obtain a large amount of prey. The food prepared with these prey is enough to keep all the villagers away for a while."

Xiao Tianren laughed.

Lin Xun also laughed and said, "Uncle Xiao, then it's settled. Tomorrow you will take everyone to the abandoned mine tunnel and hide first. When I deal with Lian Rufeng and the others, we will no longer have to worry about it. ."

Xiao Tianren nodded, and immediately asked with a serious look: "Lin Xun, this matter is too dangerous, if you fail in the end, don't work hard, let's just admit defeat, don't Lian Rufeng dare to take all of us? Can't kill it? Leave the green hills without worrying about no firewood."

Lin Xun's eyes were clear and calm, and he said, "Uncle Xiao, maybe other villagers have options to retreat, but if you and I fail, we are doomed to die, so this competition must be won!"

There was determination in his voice.

Xiao Tianren knew that Lian Rufeng had endured with him for a long time, and he was destined not to let him live any longer if he seized the opportunity.

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

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianren couldn't help but feel heavy and worried: "Then are you ready?"

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

Xiao Tianren patted Lin Xun on the shoulder and said, "Take care of yourself, if you lose, you must escape, these three thousand mountains are so big, as long as you escape, even Rufeng can't help you, please remember, don't For everyone's sake, I ended up losing my life."

Lin Xun felt a warm feeling in his heart and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Uncle Xiao, I know what I know."

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

But when he walked out of the door, he suddenly said: "Being alive is more important than everything, you must remember it."

The voice is old, floating in the evening like blood ink.

Lin Xun smiled, then turned around and returned to the room, yes, you have a chance to take revenge when you are alive, but when you die, everything is over.

He understood this very early on.

In the early morning of the next day, a group of villagers took their luggage and left the village under the leadership of Xiao Tianren.

They are just ordinary people, not cultivators, and they are unable to fight cultivators. Instead, they are burdensome to stay in the village and will only burden Lin Xun.

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

The autumn wind is bleak, and I don't know when it will start.

Although Lian Rufeng and the others haven't come back yet, Lin Xun knows that the time is not far away...

"You want to fight?"

When Lin Xun returned to the door, he saw Xia Zhi wearing an animal skin cloak, waiting there for some time.

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

"I'll help you."

Xia Zhi raised his head, revealing his beautiful face covered under his hat, and in his crescent eyes as clear as black gems, he was full of seriousness.
