"Lin Gan, you came just in time, and I am going to send someone to send this room full of things to your house. Patriarch Huo Tianzhao greeted him with a smile on his face, pointed to the room and said: "Qiligou has not been so beautiful for decades, and your contribution to Qiligou has made us old men ashamed." Everything in this house is for you, and it belongs to you, and not only that, but you have fought for Qiligou, and after our discussion, we decided to reward you with a ten-year-old riding beast. ”

Riding a beast is a means of transportation in this world, a kind of temperamental and tame, good at rugged mountain roads and long distance monsters. This monster beast is the size of two ordinary healthy horses, with five legs, and when rushing, it is used to resting on one leg in turn, and can travel thousands of miles in a day. Riding beasts can only rely on hunting in the mountains, can not be domesticated, and the speed of riding beasts is extremely fast, difficult to catch, is to the market price is much higher than the general monster beasts.

In the entire Qiligou, there are two riding beasts, one is the patriarch's special mount.

And the patriarch and several elders actually rewarded him with another riding beast, the value aside, just this value moved Lin Gan.

Lin Yan didn't shirk it, he could shirk other things, but the reward in the village meant a duty. He had just rushed into the second grade, and these elders or other villagers were not many or a little sensitive, if they refused, maybe the villagers would think that they had a weak affection for Qiligou.

"Thank you, Patriarch and a few elders. Riding a beast is the intention of the patriarch and several elders, Lin Gan, I dare not refuse, but I can't take away this house gift. And not only could I not take it away, I also brought another batch. ”

Lin Yan immediately sent hundreds of thousands of wealth to the Cao family at home, and discussed with his father the plan to contribute them to the village, and recounted it.

"The Cao family also sent nearly 300,000 taels of gold jewelry to your family, and you want to dedicate all of them to the village?"

Everyone gasped, although they had also seen the so-called big scene, but as soon as they made a move, it was 300,000 gold, and they had never seen it before. wiped it off, Lin Gen's birth obviously attracted the attention of those wealthy families, and the Cao family spent a lot of money on Lin Gen, just to give him a good impression, which is enough to explain this.

"Our Lin family is a member of Qiligou, and we can't use these things for the rest of our lives. Qiligou has paid a lot of money for me, and I have been bathed in the kindness of Qiligou all my life, and Qiligou is in financial constraints. I will contribute these things to tide over hardships and help each other in the same boat, and I hope that the patriarch and several elders will not reject my heart as well. ”

Seeing that Lin Yan could be so valued by the Cao family, the patriarch Huo Tianzhao and several patriarchs were full of pride. In their eyes, Lin Gen is like a work made by their hard work, representing the future of Qiligou, and even the largest household in Qingniu Town has a humble attitude and can't wait to have a good relationship, they are proud enough.

Take the patriarch Huo Tianzhao as an example, he visited the Cao family several times before, but the people heard that he was just a small village chief and ignored him at all. When he went in and announced, he hung him on the side, and gave him a roll of his eyes from time to time.

He has been the patriarch for nearly fifty years, and he has only met the head of the Cao family less than five times on other occasions. Every time he put on a smiling face and stepped forward to stretch out his hand, Cao Guan only nodded politely, then turned his head and ignored him completely. Of course, not only him, but also the patriarchs of other villages, in the eyes of the Cao family, this kind of little patriarch is almost like a small boogie. Among all the people, the only one who can make the Cao family polite is Chen Weihu, the patriarch of Chenjia Village, but this is also because of Chen's lack of shares, so he has this treatment.

Now, in his mind, the unattainable and powerful Cao family actually noticed Lin Gan and sent congratulatory gifts generously, this pride is really indescribable.

"Since both of you father and son have decided to do so, then we old goods have no choice but to accept it, and thank you on behalf of the villagers. Seeing Lin Gan's face full of sincerity and being so sensible, several elders felt that the patriarch inheritor was really picking the right person.

As a candidate for power who holds the future of Qiligou, ability and cultivation are important, but the most important point is the feelings for Qiligou.

If he lacks affection and cares about the suffering of the villagers, no matter how capable he is, he will only plunder and oppress after taking office, and he will become a scourge.

Qiligou was not as wealthy as other villages, and after the destruction of the demon crown scale python last time and the subsequent pension, plus the cost of this dragon sacrifice ceremony and Lin Gan's medicinal washing, it was indeed too shy to stretch his pocket. Lin Yan could smell the financial difficulties of the village, and generously donated the extra financial gifts he received, which would never have been possible without a deep affection for Qiligou as his own.

..................

"The reason why I was able to enter the second grade was because of the painstaking cultivation of the patriarch and the villagers. This thing was originally given to me by the Cao family, but it didn't have much effect on me. I, Lin Geng, am grateful in my heart, and I can't repay it, so I borrow flowers to worship the Buddha and give it away, and I implore the patriarch not to blame. ”

Coming out of the clan ancestral hall room, Lin Geng found a reason to send the patriarch Huo Tianzhao to the door of the house and took out the black box containing the "Wu Nian Mo Yan".

Patriarch Huo Tianzhao's expression was stunned, but he didn't expect Lin Yan to give him something.

His eyes fell on the box, and he saw that the black box was exquisite and simple, and he was slightly curious.

The box opened, and he exclaimed, his eyes shining brightly: "Wu Nian Mo Yan!"

In addition to practicing martial arts, one of his biggest hobbies in his life is practicing calligraphy and ink painting. He had heard of "Wu Nian Mo Yan" for a long time, and he visited the Cao family a few times ago, and although he had something important to do, the most important thing was that he vaguely hoped that he would be lucky enough to bump into this thing.

As Cao Guan's cherished thing, the most well-known thing about "Wu Nian Ink Inkstone" is its magical function of boosting the power of accumulation. But there are two things that few people know, in the past thousand years, because the "Wunian Black Inkstone" is a famous inkstone, there is no shortage of those who have used the "Wunian Ink Inkstone", and there are many famous predecessors. For example, the most famous calligraphy and painting of the Han Kingdom hundreds of years ago, Du Ziliu, Jiantian Taoist, etc., it can be said that this ink inkstone has experienced the growth of countless celebrities in the history of calligraphy.

Its symbolic meaning is almost equivalent to a monument in the world of calligraphy.

The second point is that the ink grinded out by the "Wunian Shen Yan" is mottled and desolate, with distinctive characteristics, and it is a kind of ink that is unique in the stone inkstone world. Except for the "Wu Nian Ink Inkstone", other ink inkstones cannot grind the same style of ink.

For Huo Tianzhao, a calligraphy idiot, his most extravagant wish is to see him. As for being able to write a work with ink, there has never been such a bold idea.

Seeing that the box contained the "Thoughtless Ink Inkstone" that was similar to the holy object in his mind, even though he had been a patriarch for decades and practiced profound Qi cultivation Kung Fu, it was still difficult to resist the ecstasy in his heart, revealing a greedy gaze of joy.

He took out the "Wu Nian Ink Inkstone" and carefully and carefully stroked every inch of its delicate skin, reluctant to give up, like a child who gets a beloved toy and refuses to let go for a moment.

He knew that the "Wunian Ink Inkstone" was invaluable, and he, the patriarch, should not accept it, nor should he be so gaffe, but he couldn't suppress it.

"Patriarch, I originally wanted to return this item to the Cao family, but there are too many treasures in the Cao family, and it is not uncommon for them to be rare. I know that the patriarch is very accomplished in calligraphy, and this object has fallen into your hands, so you can make the best use of it to show your ambitions. My dad and I are okay with everything else, but when it comes to words, it's too unsightly. Passing it on to you is also a last resort for us to avoid being ugly. ”

Huo Tianzhao naturally knew that he was appeasing himself, the dignified second-grade treasure was extremely precious. Even if you don't use it, you can keep it at home and keep it valuable.

Thinking of Lin Gan's heart, he felt a burst of warmth.

If it is said that his cultivation of Lin Gen is out of investment in the future of Qiligou, it is a public heart. However, at this moment, he felt a pure emotion, a simple emotion like father and son. Lin Gen could know that he was obsessed with calligraphy, and he was able to give the Cao family to him a second-grade treasure of immeasurable value, and he would pass it on to himself without blinking an eye! This intense care made him instantly feel that everything he had done for Lin Gen before was really worthwhile, and it was too profitable.

"Thank you, patriarch, I will be greedy for once and accept your heavy gift. Huo Tianzhao's sincere eyes at him were no longer hypocritical.

From this moment on, he had already regarded Lin Qian, who was not yet eighteen years old, as his own and sowed the seeds of a loving father.

In the distance, a lush tree reflected a brilliant shadow in the sunlight.

Lin Geng's back gradually disappeared, and Huo Tianzhao's eyes fell on the "Wunian Ink Inkstone" in his hand, and his eyes were full of enthusiasm: "The old man can actually get the Wunian Ink Inkstone? I am looking for the holy glow of calligraphy, and I can finally ask those predecessors for their growth traces! What a regret in this life!"

"Lin Gan, I, Huo Tianzhao, thank you, it was you who made my greatest wish in my life come true!" he said to himself slowly in the direction of Lin Gan's disappearance.

ps: Thank you for the enthusiastic rewards of "poll123" and "→ still arrogant".
