Chapter 5 It's all forehead drops
Lin Zheng, who struggled to make talismans, spent five days and five nights finally making all kinds of talismans that he thought were enough. However, the sword spirit still felt that he should be prepared a little more in case of accidents.
"I think we can prepare some materials and slowly replenish them along the way, and use them at any time!" Lin Zheng sifted through the materials while hurrying to make some more talismans, "Yesterday my nostrils suddenly had some attraction, and I don't know the specific reason, so I think it's necessary for me to go out from here to see where I came from." ”
The Divine Sense and the Sword Spirit obviously didn't understand what Lin was saying, so they used "Although...... But ......" sentence to respond, Lin Zheng didn't say much, just silently arranged his itinerary.
"By the way, which of you knows the way?" Lin Zheng, who had already packed his bags, suddenly remembered a key question.
"You, a man who is going on a journey, ask me if you recognize the way with a sword? Don't you think it's ridiculous? Sword Spirit replied disdainfully.
Lin Zheng retorted unconvinced: "There is a way for an old horse to know the way, and the old horse denies the way, and you a sword spirit actually doesn't know the way?" Rubbish! ”
The sword spirit was about to say something, but Lin Zheng choked back with a fierce slap of the scabbard, and Lin Zheng, who had made up his mind to leave, confirmed that the things he should take were already stored in the scabbard, and went through the process of encountering the enemy that he had planned in his heart, and probably felt that there was no problem, so he strode out of the way without distinguishing between east and west, north and south.
Since the activities of the divine consciousness were limited to the space of the cave, Lin Zheng could only take the spirit sword on the road together, and after thinking about it again, Lin Zheng decided to ask the sword spirit a very important question: "Do you mind changing your name?" ”
"Of course not! What are you going to give me a new name? "The sword spirit seems to be very eager to change the name, after all, the previous name is really a bit ugly.
"Hmm...... How about I call you Xiao Zhan in the future? Lin Zheng touched his chin and said.
"What? What's small? Sword Spirit was a little dazed for a moment.
"Xiao Zhan! You see, as a spirit sword, does it make a sound when you wield it? Lin Zheng said seriously.
Sword Spirit thought about it and felt that although it made sense, it didn't sound very good, so he objected: "I think it...... Why don't you change it? ”
"Hmm...... The scabbard is called a small click! You see, isn't the sound of the sword being sheathed just clicking? What do you think of my ability to name it? Isn't it much stronger than Lao Lu? Lin Zheng asked confidently.
The sword spirit, who was hit by two names one after another, slowed down for a while before finally speaking: "Strong? It's not much stronger! He's realistic! You're onomatopoeia! Can't you have some literary and artistic ones? There are so many literati and writers, can't you find two from the poems? ”
Lin Zheng pondered for a while and said, "The bright moonlight in front of the bed...... It is suspected to be frost on the ground. Or do you call it a bedside? Is the scabbard suspicious? ”
"Fuck off!" The sword spirit finally couldn't help but scold.
Lin Zheng's manager once said that if you can't find the way, then keep moving forward, and you will always see the road. At this time, Lin Zheng felt that what he said was very reasonable, because they were arguing with Xiao Zhan along the way, and they were moving in a straight line, and they actually walked out of the forest.
"Uncle! Excuse me...... Thank you! Lin Zheng, who was originally going to ask for directions, instantly changed his words, because what he saw was the lost old man he met before.
"I think I've been here!" Although he didn't know how the eyeless Xiao Tsuji observed his surroundings, he still expressed his doubts.
Lin Zheng replied disapprerovingly: "As a road blind, I can tell you that I feel familiar everywhere I look, and I feel that I have been here!" ”
One person and one sword walked forward for a while, and finally saw a village, some farmers were farming, Lin Zheng stepped forward and bowed his hand and said, "May I ask this eldest brother, where is the border between Huawei and my country?" ”
The farmer stood up straight, looked at Lin Zheng and said, "Where are you going?" ”
Lin Zheng, who was full of question marks when asked, scratched his head, and after asking carefully, he knew that this Zhongxing country and Huawei country are bordered on three sides, and the other side is bordered by Weiwo country, which is a country within a country. This situation made Lin Zheng difficult, the large area of the border means that the exact location of the crossing cannot be confirmed in a short time, and the attraction in Lin Zheng's nostrils has become smaller in the past two days, which shows that Lin Zheng has no way to cross by picking his nostrils again in the short term.
"Big brother! Can I stay in your village for two days? Oh! I can give you money! After thinking about it for a while, Lin Zheng finally decided to wait and confirm where to go or what to do according to the specific situation.
The farmer nodded and said, "That's good!" I know you're not bad at making money in the jewelry business! ”
Lin Zheng asked inexplicably, "Jewelry business?" ”
"Yes! Who is not in the jewelry business, who has so many jewels all over their bodies? And not stupid! The farmer replied calmly.
"Makes sense!" Lin Zheng nodded fiercely and followed the farmer towards the village, after all, it is not a shame to be regarded as a jeweler, but it is a shame to be treated as a fool.
The village is neat and clean, the houses are scattered, located in the middle of the village is the house where the village chief is, when the farmer took Lin Zheng to the village chief's house, the village chief was writing and painting on an account book, and when he saw an outsider coming in, he raised his head to look at Lin Zheng.
"Is there anything wrong with you? We can't afford to buy jewelry in this small village! The village chief waved his hand after seeing Lin Zheng's appearance.
Lin Zheng wanted to explain that he was not a jeweler, but after thinking about his appearance at the moment, he felt that he should not explain again: "Village chief, you have misunderstood, I have something to go out and want to spend two days in your village." ”
The village chief looked at Lin Zheng and asked in a low voice, "Then how do you think you can give money?" ”
Such a straightforwardness greatly surprised Lin Zheng's expectations, touched the little click, and recalled how much money he loaded, Lin Zheng said confidently: "It's all up to the village chief's arrangement!" ”
Since the village chief's words turned favors into business, everything became easier to say, Lin Zheng pretended to take out a small gold bar from his arms and asked the village chief, "Do you see that these are enough?" ”
The village chief, who was originally sitting on a chair with his toes high, immediately widened his eyes when he saw this bright golden little thing: "Enough! Enough is enough! Son! Come on! Arrange a place for this uncle to live! Hurry up! ”
What came out of the voice was a strong man with a height of two meters, and when he saw this person, Lin Zheng's heart popped out four big words - Kong Wu is powerful! Compared with some big men that Lin Zheng had seen before, this strong man did not have any crumbling feeling, but made people feel very down-to-earth and steady.
Seeing that Lin Zheng had been staring at his son, the village chief explained with a smile: "This uncle, this is my son Guo Ah Si, a monk who cultivates body refining techniques!" ”
Lin Zheng, who realized that he was a little presumptuous, arched his hand and said, "It's rude!" I just felt that the noble son was a little special, so I couldn't help but look at it twice. ”
The village chief didn't care, and Guo Ah Si didn't care, the tall man showed a simple smile like a child, stretched out his hand to lead the way: "This uncle, please come here!" ”
The arranged accommodation is not very luxurious, but it is very clean and tidy, and Guo Asi always has a childlike smile on his face, which makes Lin Zheng in another world very comfortable.
"You're practicing the Tempering Technique?" Lin Zheng asked Guo Ah Si curiously, maybe it was because Lu Shaohong disdained something as simple and crude as cultivating the body refining technique, so Lin Zheng didn't have much information about the body refining technique in his mind.
Guo Asi scratched his head shyly: "Yes!" My comprehension is very poor, and I can't learn anything else, so I can only practice the simplest body refining technique. ”
Lin Zheng knew that the cultivation process of the Tempering Technique was very arduous, and it was necessary to temper the strength of the body in various ways, but Rao was like this, the Tempering Technique also had obvious shortcomings, the upper limit was too low, and even if it was practiced to the top level, it was only equivalent to the middle and low level of other monks.
After chatting casually for a few more words, Lin Zheng planned to take a break, after all, the production of talismans for several days in a row, coupled with the two-day rush, was still a heavy burden for Lin Zheng, who had just started his cultivation.
Lin Zheng sent Guo Ah Si away just after lying down and suddenly his hair stood up, this feeling made him very uncomfortable, and before he could say anything, Xiao Zhan Jian, who was placed at the head of the bed, suddenly spoke: "There is a group of people from outside the village, and the murderous aura is very heavy!" ”
Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that the feeling of his hair standing on end was a perception of murderous aura, so he turned over and got up, walked to the window and looked out, and the villagers were rushing towards the entrance of the village.
"To go or not to go, it's a question......" Lin Zheng scratched his head and said to Xiao Zhan very ambivalently.
"Listen to you! But there is one condition! You can't use me to fight with people! I'm more precious, and old Lu Ke has never used me as a weapon! Seeing that Lin Zheng wanted to join in the fun, Xiao Zhan saw that he wanted to join in the fun, so he hurriedly made his position clear first.
Lin Zheng sighed, picked up Xiao Zhan and hurried to the entrance of the village, and walked not far to see Guo Ah Si who was hurrying away.
"Are you going to go too?" Lin Zheng asked curiously.
"Of course! I'm the strongest in the village! Guo Asi replied proudly.
"Who is it?" Lin Zheng followed Guo Asi and asked.
"The robbers and bandits in the nearby mountains, they often come to ask for some money, and my father never provokes them, but gives some money to buy peace. However, we just gave them money some time ago, and today I don't know why it's here again! It's such a bully, I'm going to let them see that our village is not easy to mess with! Guo Asi said very indignantly.
Lin Zheng thought for a while and said with some doubts: "Are they menacing every time they come?" ”
"That's not true, because they pay them on time and in the right amount every time, so they will only send two or three people, collect the money and leave." Guo Asi looked at the entrance of the village not far away and wondered, "Why are so many people here?" ”
"Paid? That's not going to work! The money here is all foreheads! An arrogant voice came from the entrance of the village.
