Chapter 3: The Legendary Dragon Ring
Meng Xiaodie's words woke up the dreamer, which made Lin Zaitian have a deep sense of urgency.
Return to Lin Mansion.
Lin Zaitian immediately locked himself in the room and sat cross-legged, trying to feel the aura around him, so as to gain a sense of qi.
Only by gaining the sense of qi can he embark on the path of cultivation, so that he can have some power for self-preservation.
However, after several hours, Lin Zaitian did not gain the slightest.
Outside the window, it was already dark, and the courtyard was already lit up.
Lin Zaitian stood up, moving his legs that were a little sore and numb, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really difficult to cultivate! It seems that what Meng Xiaodie said is right, this sense of qi is not something that can be obtained in a short period of time, and it must be done with perseverance......
In this way, Lin Zaitian had to consider other means to resolve the current life and death crisis.
He walked to the window, cast his gaze into the night, and fell into thought.
"Actually, in the Lin Mansion, it is still me, the cheap father, who has the greatest power and strength, as long as he can convince his father to believe this, with his means, he will definitely be able to find out the real culprits and wipe them out! ”
But when he thought about it again, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"But my body was notorious before, and what I said may not be approved by my father! Besides, who knows if there are undercover agents around my father? If I don't get it right, I will startle the snake and let those people ......do it in advance."
Lin Zaitian was in a dilemma, very distressed, and couldn't help frowning.
The night is getting darker.
After some contemplation, Lin Zaitian finally thought of a solution, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"I only need to secretly collect conclusive evidence and hand it over to my father, and then I can gain his trust! At that time, I will set up a bureau with my father and point out the murderers on the spot, and I can kill them by surprise!"
With his mind decided, Lin Zaitian couldn't wait to leave the room and ran to the main room where his father was.
It's the second watch day, and according to later generations, it is more than nine o'clock in the evening, and it is not more than eleven o'clock at most, Lin Zaitian saw that his father's room was brightly lit, so he broke in.
Who knows, he accidentally broke his father's good deeds and saw a scene that he shouldn't see.
After a woman's scream, Lin Zaitian was smashed out of the door by his father with a stinky shoe.
"You muddy boy, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, you run around like a headless fly, no big or small, what kind of system do you become?"
"Dad, I have something to discuss with you! uh...... Jiu Niang is also here, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
"Fuck off! Wait outside the door!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of scolding in the room.
Lin Zaitian stood outside the door with a red face, and he was also depressed.
"I forgot that the ancients went to bed early...... Looks like I'm going to have to get rid of jet lag!"
It didn't take long for a soft shout to come from the room, "Come in!"
Lin Zaitian adjusted his mood and pushed the door in.
He was greeted by his father's scolding.
"Stinky boy, being assassinated once is not honest, frizzy, and has no appearance!"
Lin Zaitian's father, Lin Yida, is thirty-six years old, with a cold face and a slightly rich figure.
He was in his prime, sitting in the middle of the room, with a bit of the majesty of the superior.
He shook his head in disappointment and sighed: "In the past three days, you have stayed at home and read every day, and I was still a little relieved, thinking that you are finally a little sensible." I didn't expect you to be so urine!...... My Lin family is unlucky!"
Hearing this, Lin Zaitian suddenly became a little unhappy.
He swallowed the words of apology back into his stomach and said coldly: "You can't say that, right? If you turned off the lights just now, how could others break in? If you plug in the door from the inside, even if others want to break in, I'm afraid it won't be easy, right?"
"Uh...... You...... This ......"
Lin Yida opened his mouth several times, but found that he was speechless for a while.
What Lin Zaitian said was reasonable, reasonable, and well-founded, and he had no way to refute it.
Lin Yida narrowed his eyes, looked Lin Zaitian up and down, not angry but happy, and actually laughed.
"Hahaha, well! That's right! Haha! It seems that you have indeed matured a lot after the assassination! Say, what are you looking for me?"
Lin Zaitian's heart moved, and he had the intention to tell his speculation about the murderer behind the scenes, but he finally couldn't help mentioning it. The partition wall has ears, who knows if the ninth lady in his father's house is undercover?
It's better to be careful.
Thinking of this, Lin Zaitian smiled slightly, "I want to learn to do business." ”
"Okay! This is a good thing, Dad has been waiting for you for a long time! Dad is such a son as you, as long as you do the right thing, Dad will fully support you!"
Lin Yida couldn't hide the joy in his heart at all, and his expression was a little excited.
"Tell me, where do you want to start?"
"I'm more interested in numbers, so let's go to the accounting office to exercise first. ”
Lin's experience in the afterlife told him that if he wants to find clues, the most direct and effective way is to check the accounts!
"Okay!haha, your second mother is in charge of the account room, I'll say hello to her in a while, and you can go directly to your second mother tomorrow." ”
"Yes!" Lin Zaitian saluted respectfully and exited the room.
Day 2.
Lin Zaitian came to the account room early, but he didn't expect that the second lady came earlier.
Lin Zaitian hurriedly saluted, "Erniang is early." ”
"Hmm!" the second lady bowed slightly.
After Lin Zaitian's biological mother died of illness in her early years, the second lady was the largest.
The second lady was born dignified and virtuous, and she is still charming when she is over 30 years old.
And she is familiar with poetry and books, good at arithmetic, and more meticulous, so she manages the Lin family's accounts behind the scenes.
She looked at Lin Zaitian with a smile and said, "Tian'er, you are the only son of the master, you should have come out to share the worries of the master." However, this account room is nothing more than some things to write and calculate, which is very boring, and I am afraid that you will not be able to persevere. It's better for you to follow the shopkeepers below to learn how to do business, but it will be a lot more interesting. ”
The second lady spoke very measuredly, and at first glance there was nothing wrong with it, but Lin Zaitian analyzed it carefully, and he found out that there was a meaning to drive him away.
He smiled and said, "Thank you Erniang for your concern, I like to suddenly become obsessed with numbers recently, and I want to write and calculate every day." ”
The second lady smiled and shook her head, "Okay, when are you tired of playing, tell Erniang at any time, and Erniang will arrange an easier job for you at any time." ”
Lin Zaitian nodded, "Thank you Erniang." ”
"It's all a family, you don't have to be so polite!" the second lady smiled and waved her hand.
Then, her beautiful eyes flashed, and she flashed a wise brilliance, and said with a smile: "If you want to learn the bookkeeping set, you have to start with the counter first...... Well, there is a shortage of manpower at the butcher's shop, so you should go there for a while and then come back here to study, what do you think?"
Lin Zaitian couldn't help but secretly slander himself, this second lady just didn't want to see him, she just wanted to drive him away, but what people said was reasonable, and he had no reason to refuse.
Moreover, it is easier to obtain clues and evidence by going down to the grassroots level.
Lin Zaitian agreed with a smile, took a letter, and came to the "Lin Ji Butcher Shop" at the intersection of Temple Street.
The shopkeeper of the butcher shop is also surnamed Lin, about forty years old, and he is a big fat man.
After reading the letter, he hurriedly smiled and asked, "Eldest young master, the second lady said that you should do things related to accounting......?" Are you going to collect money, or are you going to keep accounts?"
In fact, although the "Lin Kee Butcher Shop" is good, it will only be busy at the temple fair on the first day of each month.
In normal times, he can do it alone.
At this time, I am going to add one person, not to mention, it is still the notorious Young Master Lin, and the shopkeeper is a little incomprehensible.
Isn't that fooling around?
But the shopkeeper is a smart person, and since this matter was personally arranged by the second lady, although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask more.
Several men in charge of the knife also looked at each other, this Lin Zaitian did not let the good young master do it, but came to work in the butcher shop...... Which one is it going to make trouble?
"Just collect the money!" Lin Zaitian said helplessly.
He didn't know how to use a bookkeeping brush, so he had to work as a cashier on a temporary basis.
"Okay!" shopkeeper Lin briefly explained the precautions.
While he was talking, a guest came to the door, and the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him.
Lin Zaitian walked behind the counter and picked up an account book to look through.
But I heard the shopkeeper shouting in a loud voice: "Collect fifteen cents!"
"Okay!" Lin Zaitian replied according to the shopkeeper's explanation, and reached out to take the copper coin handed over by the customer.
However, at this moment, the copper coin in Lin Zaitian's hand disappeared out of thin air.
Miraculously, this feeling of disappearance is not gone, but as if the copper coin itself has gotten into Lin Zaitian's fingers.
Lin Zaitian was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly raised his hand to check it repeatedly, and made an even more astonishing discovery.
On the middle finger of his left hand, a vague pattern faintly appeared, but it was impossible to see the specific appearance.
Lin Zaitian narrowed his eyes, "The pattern was born because it devoured copper coins, but it is so unclear, is it because there are not enough copper coins?"
He immediately took out a money bag from his bosom, grabbed a handful of copper coins, and put them in his left hand.
This time, he witnessed the disappearance of the copper coin, and it was indeed inexplicably devoured by the middle finger of his left hand!
The pattern on the middle finger solidified a little, but it was still not clear.
"It's still not enough!"
Lin Zaitian simply put his left hand into the money bag.
In an instant, a bag of coins disappeared.
Lin Zaitian looked at his middle finger again, the pattern on it was still unclear, but it was vaguely recognizable.
This is a word, which is the traditional Chinese word for "dragon"!
Lin Zaitian has an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this word, as if he has seen it somewhere.
"Hmph, I'd like to see how much you can swallow!"
Lin Zaitian had money on his body, so he directly took out a silver ingot and put it in his left hand.
This silver ingot of one tael can be exchanged for the usual copper coins, which is a thousand copper coins!
At this moment, the dragon pattern became very clear.
"This is ......" Lin Zaitian suddenly became excited, "This is the logo of "Legend of Blood"!"
After a few days, he saw this pattern that belonged to later generations again, and he was inexplicably a little kind.
"Huh, how does it bulge?"
Lin Zaitian carefully found that the dragon character pattern was slightly raised, as if it was about to break his fingers.
He had a bold guess in his mind, and after turning his finger around, he confirmed the judgment.
"This should be a ring! Maybe it's a treasure! Haha, it's a fortune!"
Lin Zaitian no longer hesitated, and directly took out a gold bar from his arms and sent it to the dragon pattern.
The next moment, the gold bar disappeared and the ring was fully revealed.
At the same time, a soft voice suddenly sounded in Lin Zaitian's mind.
"Congratulations, master, the Legendary Dragon Ring has been activated! My name is Xiaoqi, and I am always at your service. ”
