Chapter Eighty-Five: The Grimace Mask and the Bronze Ring

Eating glutinous rice cakes, Xiao Lin Ruo followed Lin Xi's side, leisurely walking on the street that had gradually been shrouded in night, looking at the fewer and fewer stalls around, looking extremely happy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Brother, come and see, this mask is so interesting!" In front of a stall that has not yet closed the stall, Lin Ruo, who was wearing pigtails, pointed to a grimace mask that seemed to be laughing and crying, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Uncle, how do you sell this mask?" Lin Xi saw that his sister liked it, and immediately asked the bearded stall owner.

"It's not expensive, a string of copper coins will do!" The stall owner sorted out the things on the stall, and seemed to be ready to close the stall.

"Wow, it's so expensive, brother, let's go!" Lin Ruo shook his head constantly after hearing the price, and pulled his brother's sleeve to leave, a string of copper coins can buy a lot of things.

"Little girl, don't talk nonsense, my thing is not expensive, if this thing is in the Feather God Dynasty thousands of miles away, it can sell at least two strings of copper coins!" explained the bearded stall owner.

Lin Xi hesitated slightly, took out a string of copper coins from his arms, and said to the stall owner: "I want this mask, but the bronze piece next to this mask is also given to us, right?"

The bearded man took the copper coin, looked at it carefully for a moment, and found that each copper coin was imprinted with several mysterious words, confirming that this was a copper coin officially minted by the Feather God Dynasty, and his face was full of smiles at the moment.

"Yes, the copper sheet is useless, you just take it, by the way, uncle is in a good mood today, there is a fire mulberry tree seed here that has not been sold, so I will give it to you, remember to find a place to plant it before dawn, otherwise the seeds will be shriveled!"

Taking the mask, copper sheets and seeds, Lin Xi casually put the mask on Lin Ruo's face, and suddenly, on his sister's delicate little face, a grimace that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, in the hazy night, it looked quite scary.

"Oh, brother, this mask is too big, I don't feel comfortable wearing it, so you should bring it!" Taking the mask off his face, Lin Ruo tilted his toes and put the mask on the young man's face when he lowered his head slightly.

"Wow, my brother has become a monster, it's so scary, hahaha!" The little girl clapped her hands happily and laughed happily, although she said that she was scary, but she didn't see the slightest fear on her face, it seemed that as long as it was her brother, even if she became a monster, she was not afraid.

"Hehe, look, my brother will make a trick for you!" Lin Xi smiled mysteriously, only to see that the bronze piece in his hand, under the vigorous movement of his two hands, gradually bent down, and finally turned into a small ring, although it was still very rough, but in Lin Ruo's opinion, it was very happy.

Taking the ring from Lin Xi's hand, Lin Ruo carefully put it on the index finger of his left hand, with a look of cherishment, and his right hand rubbed back and forth from time to time, looking very cherished.

"Do you like it? Rings can only be worn by adults with status, and in the future, if our family is ruo, it will also be an adult with status!"

Picking Lin Ruo up, his fingers scraped on her rather clever nose, Lin Xi hugged her and prepared to find a place to stay overnight, and then return to the village at dawn tomorrow.

"Brother, let's go home, didn't the bearded uncle say, the seeds of the fire mulberry tree need to be planted before dawn, I want to plant it at our doorstep!"

"Okay, listen to you, let's go home!"

Although it will be a little dangerous to rush at night, Lin Xi thinks that his strength is good, ordinary beasts are not his opponents, and he also wants to see what the fire mulberry tree will be like when it grows up, and it is indeed a little reluctant to waste it like this.

With a package on his back, a gun in one hand, and Xiao Lin Ruo in the other, Lin Xi strode back the way he came.

The luck of the two of them was good, they didn't encounter any fierce beasts on the road, and they wore stars and moons all the way, and finally returned home when the sky was slightly bright.

"Brother, I'll go get water, you dig a pit and plant the seeds first!"

As soon as he returned home, Xiao Linruo couldn't wait to run into the house, and then came to the courtyard door with a large wooden basin full of water.

I saw that in the southeast corner outside the courtyard, Lin Xi had already buried the seeds of the fire mulberry tree in the soil, took the water brought by Lin Ruo, poured it all on it, and then touched Lin Ruo's little head and smiled: "When this fire mulberry tree grows, our family Ruoruo will grow up!"

......

Time passed little by little, two years passed quietly, although the fourteen-year-old Lin Xi had not yet married a wife and started a family, but still became the captain of the hunting team as agreed, as for the nine-year-old Lin Ruo, he was already sensible a lot, washing and cooking every day, waiting for his brother to return from hunting.

According to the old people in the village, the growth of the fire mulberry tree is relatively slow, but after maturity, it can bloom a fiery red mulberry flower, and the flowers are fiery red, like a continuous sunset.

The two of them had been looking forward to the season when the fire mulberry tree bloomed, and to see the beautiful scene when the flame flowers were in one piece.

However, they did not wait for the fire mulberry tree to bloom, but waited for a group of uninvited guests to arrive.

It was a group of gods who could fly in the sky, dressed in splendid and gorgeous costumes, full of the coercion of the strong, and in a burst of void fluctuations, they found Lin Xi who was watering.

After a simple negotiation, one of the silver-haired old men was shocked by Lin Xi's qualifications, and immediately said that he was going to take Lin Xi away.

"It's okay for me to go with you, but can I take my sister with me?" Lin Xi, who was only a fourteen-year-old boy, had never seen a man of God coming, but even so, he begged the old man to take his sister with him.

"Alas, your sister doesn't have cultivation qualifications, so she can't take her back!" After the old man glanced at Lin Ruo, he couldn't help but shake his head, no matter how the little girl cried, he didn't agree to take her with him.

"You have to understand, the will of the Feather God Dynasty cannot be violated, it's not that you can't come back if you go, as long as you are willing to work hard, it won't take a few years to achieve cultivation, and then you can come back by yourself to pick up your sister and go to the Feather God Dynasty!" the old man said half-persuasively, half-threateningly.

After Lin Xi was silent for a moment, he finally agreed to leave with them, but asked his sister to see him off, otherwise, he would rather die than leave.

The old man was slightly silent, then agreed to Lin Xi's request, took Lin Xi and Lin Ruofei out of the village, and landed in a small valley outside the village.

There is a five-color altar in the valley, before leaving, Lin Xi put the grimace mask on his face, wiped away his tears for his sister, and comforted him softly: "Don't be sad, my brother will definitely work hard to practice after he goes there, and he will come back to pick you up as soon as possible, you are too weak, during the days when your brother is away, you have to be strong, if someone bullies you, you will beat him, if you can't beat it, bite with your teeth, as long as you are ruthless, others will be afraid and dare not bully you!"

In the end, Lin Xi left, and after waving her arms at her sister vigorously, she finally disappeared on the five-color altar, leaving the little girl crying sadly and falling to the ground, her little hands covered with blood......
