Chapter 7: Evian
"Humph!"
Lin Chen snorted coldly while drinking porridge.
He thought to himself: "Lord of Dongtang Village, you are really blind! The young master is not easy to bully!"
After eating this dinner, which was completely unrelated to the rich but relatively formal, the lean middle-aged villager left, and Lin Chen went to a side room and sat on a rather large wooden bed.
Tu Qing did not follow into the wing, but stayed in the courtyard and lay on the recliner where Lin Chen lay during the day, vigilant and recuperating.
One day, Lin Chen was completely refreshed, although it was already night, it was quiet all around, and he had no sleep.
Sitting cross-legged and pranayama in meditation, using the Lin family's breathing technique, he gradually entered a state of cultivation.
The aura around him gathered towards this chamber unhurriedly......
In the wee hours of the morning.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for advancing to the fifth level of the Qi Gathering Realm, and the experience points have increased by 800!"
When the morning sun is rising.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for advancing to the sixth order of the Qi Gathering Realm, and the experience points have increased by 1000!"
Lin Chen opened his eyes at this time, his whole person was refreshed, and he couldn't help but exhale out the system interface and looked at his attribute panel.
He has accumulated 2510 system experience.
"Isn't the amount of experience awarded doubled for each level of advancement?"
Lin Chen got out of bed and muttered.
System: "Host, during this period of cultivation from the sixth to ninth orders of the Qi Gathering Realm, the experience point reward for each skill cultivation is 1,000 points. ”
Hearing this, Lin Chen didn't dwell on this question in his heart, and walked out of the wing.
In the courtyard, the lean villager who had been here last night came again.
However, this morning he did not come alone, but brought with him a young girl, who was about fifteen or sixteen years of age.
The girl looked timid in a crumpled knee-length floral dress, with two braids, and her head kept down.
Although she is not very old, she is also very smart, her cheeks are red, her whole body is very clean, revealing the pure breath of cardamom years, giving people a feeling of small jasper.
"Evian, come and meet the lord!"
The lean villager pulled the girl first, and then introduced to Lin Chen: "Lord Lord, she is my youngest daughter, named Evian, and the one who married into the East Village is her sister Yixia. ”
"Meet ......"
"No formality. ”
Evian stepped forward to salute, and Lin Chen gave him a handful.
"My lord, you don't have a handmaiden to call on at the moment, if you look good, leave Evian behind. ”
The lean villager suggested flatteringly.
Lin Chen looked at the father and daughter carefully, no matter how he looked at the two of them, there was no similarity between them, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
In his previous life, his daughter's appearance was usually very influenced by her father.
However, Evian is beautiful and beautiful, with a sweet pink face and pure eyebrows and eyes, while her father has sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, a collapsed nose, and mung bean eyes.
Could it be that her mother was a big beauty when she was young?
Lin Chen didn't think about it any more, he smiled and waved his hand: "I'm actually not used to being served, your daughter is delicate and exquisite, it's too ...... for her to do rough work."
Before he finished speaking, Evian hurriedly said: "My lord, Evian is not a rich lady, and she often helps her family with her work, and she will never have the slightest grievance or complaint by your side, but will only feel honored." ”
Lin Chen frowned slightly, and couldn't help but glance at the little girl again.
He could tell from her look that her words were not from the bottom of her heart.
She hurriedly intercepted him, giving him the feeling that he wanted to seize this opportunity.
He immediately thought to himself, "This little girl is very smart, probably deliberately wanting to stay with me, the new lord, and then ask for benefits. ”
"Evian, you are so ignorant, how can you casually interject!"
Seeing that Lin Chen seemed to be thoughtful, the lean villager glared and reprimanded.
However, at this time, Evian seemed to have mustered up courage, as if she hadn't heard her father's reprimand, with her pair of clear and bright eyes, she stared at Lin Chen for a moment, and her pretty and delicate face was obviously full of expectation.
Lin Chen looked at Tu Qing and found that the latter didn't look at this side at all, let alone have any intention of making suggestions, so he turned his gaze back to Evian.
After a moment's deep groaning, he finally nodded and said, "If you are willing, it doesn't hurt to stay." ”
"Thank you, Lord for your love!"
The lean villagers looked overjoyed.
Evian quietly exhaled a breath of fragrance, as if she was instantly relaxed, and it could be seen from the change in her expression that she obviously had something unknown to others.
After eating the breakfast brought by the lean villagers, Lin Chen lay on the recliner in the courtyard like yesterday, while Evian stood behind him, pinching his shoulders and rubbing his back for him, without saying a word.
Evian's weak and boneless hands made him feel very enjoyable, and for the first time, he felt that it was a good choice to stay with Evian.
"The traverser is cool!"
Lin Chen sighed in his heart: "In his previous life on the earth, how could Lao Tzu have such treatment!"
In the next two days, he adapted to the soaring skill cultivation during the day, and worked hard to cultivate at night, and lived a very fulfilling life.
In the blink of an eye, the time for repayment of the debt demanded by the lord of Dongtang Village has arrived.
The lord of Dongtang Village once again brought a group of strong people to Xitang Village and walked into the mansion left by the Hu family.
It was still early in the morning, and Lin Chen, who had just had breakfast, was still lying on the recliner.
There was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and his half-squinted eyes were like two narrow scimitars, which were not only godly, but also playful.
Everyone in Dongtang Village looked at Lin Chen first, and finally their eyes all fell on Tu Qing.
The last time they came, they hadn't seen Tu Qing, and when the Hu family saw them before, they didn't mention that there were still masters around the new young lord.
Of course, they couldn't see the depth of Tu Qing, who had gathered his breath, but they were not afraid.
The lord of Dongtang Village took a few steps forward, walked to the chaise longue, habitually stroked his white beard, and said indifferently: "It's time to repay the debt, I think you should be ready, right?"
"It's ready. ”
Lin Chen also replied in a light tone: "I will give you two choices now, one is to move out of Dongtang Village with your family immediately, and the other is to swear allegiance to me and become my guard." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
The lord of Dongtang Village frowned and asked, "It seems that you not only want to repay the debt, but also plan to take my family's territory, right?"
"You're not old yet!"
Lin Chen said very bluntly: "The two villages are merged, and the population exceeds four hundred, so that I can become the three-star lord of Black Iron." ”
"If you want to repay the debt, we can't force it, let's ask the lord of Baishi Town to adjudicate!"
The lord of Dongtang Village was a little jealous of Tu Qing behind Lin Chen, so he gave up his plan to use force directly.
"Old man, you are going to play the drama of the wicked suing first!"
Lin Chen sat up straight and sneered: "I already know that the Hu family went to your Dongtang Village once before leaving, and the debt owed to you by Xitang Village has been settled, but you brought someone over to blackmail me, according to the rules, I can fight back at will." ”
