Lin Xin also understood that the other party intended to make friends.
"Brother Kong has high aspirations, that's right."
"By the way, the internal Qi that has absorbed the Yin blood will have a faint red color. Only masters in the Qi refining stage can detect it, so don't worry too much." Kong Yuhui added, "After we go back, I will handle the aftermath.
If anyone interrogates you, just say that when we woke up on the last day, we found that everyone was missing, there was insufficient manpower, and the mission of hunting the Yin-blood Bird failed."
Lin Xin remained calm at this time, taking out the four burnt-black Yin Blood Birds and throwing them on the ground.
"Eh? As expected of Brother Lin!" Kong Yuhui was suddenly stunned.
"One for each person. Can that offset the mission?" Lin Xin said calmly.
"Of course." Kong Yuhui knelt down, took one and put it away.
Jiang Yue'er was also about to tear off a section of her skirt to pick up the Yin Blood Bird. But Cheng Ruofei grabbed her and she suddenly showed a trace of confusion.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Ruofei did not reply, but stared at Lin Xin.
"Senior Brother Kong can take it, but we don't dare to take it just like that. Brother Lin, do you have any requirements in exchange?"
Lin Xin was dumbfounded. This woman's thoughts were too realistic and delicate, and she was afraid that he would use this as a threat. Thinking back to what Kong Yuhui said before, the inner energy after absorbing Yin blood will be dyed red.
He looked at Cheng Ruofei and the two again.
"In that case, I will share a drop of Yin blood between you two. Together with these two Yin blood birds, Senior Sister Cheng, how much jade do you think these two things can be exchanged for if returned to the sect?"
Along the way, Jiang Yue'er, a silly big girl, can be ignored, but Cheng Ruofei is thoughtful and the two women's backgrounds are probably extraordinary, so they may be of good use.
As for sharing a drop of Yin blood between them, it was just to prevent the two of them from crossing the river and burning the bridge.
This Yin blood is made from living human life. Once it is exposed, as long as it is absorbed, no matter how much they argue, they will not be able to escape suspicion.
"Compensation..." Cheng Ruofei immediately understood what Lin Xin meant. She was a very smart girl. But even if they understood, they could not refuse the temptation of this drop of Yin blood.
Kong Yuhui beside him was also slightly frightened by Lin Xin's grandeur.
This is a drop of Yin blood. If it were in the sect, I don't know how many people would try their best to snatch it. This is a real treasure that has a price but no market.
"The faster you can improve your cultivation, the more likely you are to have a good chance of refining your Qi!" Kong Yuhui sighed, "Brother Lin, you are really generous!"
Lin Xin smiled slightly. This thing is a hot commodity. Since the effect will be greatly reduced after four layers, he only needs three drops. The remaining drop can be replaced with more other materials, and it can also bind the two women tightly at the same time.
Tie together on a chariot, keeping secrets.
Looking at the two girls again, their eyes flickered, and they were obviously very moved.
"It seems that there are very few resources on the market that can improve internal energy cultivation. They are all priced but not marketable, otherwise they would not behave like this." Lin Xin reasoned in his mind.
"If we compensate, we will definitely satisfy Brother Lin!" Jiang Yue'er rushed to speak, "As long as I get home and tell you, the elixirs, weapons, and equipment, as long as they don't exceed 20,000 jade coins, can be taken out at any time!
"
Cheng Ruofei wanted to stop him, but it was too late, so she could only look at her friend helplessly, and before she even started bargaining, she had already wiped out her own bottom line.
Lin Xin smiled.
"Twenty thousand jade coins? Yin blood is a good thing that can ignore the damage to the meridians and greatly shorten the training time. It is not comparable to those pills that simply replenish qi and blood..."
He likes such honest people, especially when negotiating prices.
"Twenty thousand jade coins is indeed a lot of money... but exchanging a drop of Yin blood is a bit advantageous." Kong Yuhui also smiled and helped.
"But...but the most I can take out...is this much..." Jiang Yue'er was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her head and whispered in embarrassment. Her eyes also drifted towards Kong Yuhui from time to time, obviously because of the previous incident.
Things, I'm still a little afraid of him now.
"Yue'er can really only take out so much." Cheng Ruofei shook his head, "For the rest, I have what you need, Brother Lin, so it should be enough for exchange, right?"
Lin Xin's heart moved. "Do you know what I need?"
"Maybe I can guess a little bit." Cheng Ruofei nodded.
"Well, the time I spared you before was considered a share, and this time it is another share. Remember it clearly." Lin Xin agreed, "You have to give me an explanation when you return to the sect."
"No problem." Cheng Ruofei nodded calmly.
"Then let's continue on our way." Kong Yuhui didn't want to stay outside for a moment anymore. Even he felt frightened by this trip, and the aftermath would take a long time to deal with.
The four of them stopped stopping along the way. When they were hungry, they went around to hunt wild animals such as hares. When they couldn't catch them, they could only stay hungry temporarily. When they were thirsty, they were lucky enough to encounter a stream and replenish their water bladders. But they were not lucky enough.
I can only endure it.
Fortunately, this road was a commonly used carriageway. They didn't go far before they met the carriage driver who had made an appointment to pick them up.
The coachman drove the four people into the carriage and headed towards a nearby town.
The next day, after resting for a while in Baiyang Town, which was dozens of miles away, the four of them chartered two carriages and headed directly to the next town.
After walking and stopping for supplies and changing trains along the way, half a month later, we finally returned to the market town of Mingshui River next to Zongmen.
Lin Xin had advanced some jade coins from Cheng Ruofei. When he was on the edge of the town, he found Lin Yuansheng, the Lin Family Nursing Home, and gave him a few jade coins for daily expenses and communication expenses.
One jade coin is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver. The purchasing power of one tael of silver in this small town by the Mingshui River is equivalent to more than 800 yuan, which is cheaper than the one thousand taels outside.
But if converted into copper coins, it would be enough for an average person to live for half a month.
And a few hundred taels of silver, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands, is enough to cover the cost of traveling back to report the news, not to mention living expenses.
After Lin Yuansheng was settled, he wrote a letter to his father Lin Zhiwen at home, and also gave a separate letter to Lin Zhiwu's second uncle, persuading him to let Lin Xinyuan really practice martial arts. This was also what he had promised his cousin.
After arranging everything, Lin Yuansheng went on the road to deliver the message. Then he met up with three others and crossed the river together.
***************
Standing in the middle of the Mingshui River, the sound of the river water hitting the side of the boat can be heard from the boat deck beneath my feet.
Lin Xin, dressed in plain white clothes, stood alone on the bow of the boat, looking at the location of the Songlin Sword Sect in the distance.
The weather was clear and the sky was blue, with not a trace of cloud covering it.
From a distance, the black mountains look like large square stones lying flat on the grass. Below between the two square stones is the gray-black entrance to and from the valley, leading directly to Tingjian Valley.
The surface of the mountains is covered with a sparse layer of white frost and snow, and a figure can be faintly seen standing on the top of the mountain dancing a sword.
The surroundings are extremely steep, almost at right angles. Only in the corner of the mountain can you vaguely see a white waterfall flowing down from the mountain, like a white line, hanging on the mountain wall.
"I heard that the sword dancer on the top of the mountain is Bai Songzi, who is in the Qi training realm." Kong Yuhui walked up to Lin Xin with a glass of wine and said casually.
"Inner family, Xiantian, practice qi. Only when you truly enter qi training can you be called the legendary qi practitioner. You can absorb the essence of heaven and earth and seize the creation of heaven and earth to change yourself. It is really admirable." He said with emotion.
"I'm waiting for a chance." Lin Xin smiled.
"Yes." Kong Yuhui didn't expect Lin Xin to be so confident, so he smiled.
The two of them looked at the pier in front of them from a distance. At this time, there were also disciples going out to board the boat beside the simple wooden bridge.
They were two young men and women dressed in white as snow, no more than 18 or 19 years old. Both of them had delicate features and it was hard to tell whether they were male or female. If one hadn't had a bulging chest and the other had a flat figure with an Adam's apple, no one would have been able to tell them apart.
gender.
Lin Xin glanced at them, and he immediately felt a connection with the two people. Two pairs of eyes glanced over at them like lightning, and fell on Lin Xin, which actually made him feel slightly hairy.
"Tsk tsk...Dugu siblings...I didn't expect to meet them." Kong Yuhui admired in a low voice.
"Are they famous?" Lin Xin frowned slightly.
"Very famous." Cheng Ruofei's voice came from behind. She changed into sect clothes and wore a goose-yellow Taoist robe close to her body. The loose robe actually made her look graceful and graceful, like a young heroine who had just emerged from the world.
female.
Her chest is bulging, and her lower body robe has been trimmed to her thighs, revealing a fair and round section above her knees. She has a pair of white boots under her feet, and her black hair is combed into three long ponytails hanging down her lower back. She has a unique charm.
"The Dugu sisters are the most outstanding disciples among all the disciples in the sect in the past ten years. Although they are only disciples in the outer area now, it is said that they are born with spirit gathering bodies." Cheng Ruofei's eyes were filled with envy.
"Gathering Spirit Body?" Lin Xin was confused.
"Before joining the sect, I started practicing Xiao Gui Yuan Jue and entered Xiantian in March. Now one year has passed and I am at the peak of the ninth level of Xiao Gui Yuan Jue. It is said that I can step into Qi training at any time. That's it, they haven't even used it yet
No need to use any pills or other auxiliary means." Cheng Ruofei said helplessly, "With such a talent, you are destined to stand above countless people from the moment you are born."
"Enter Xiantian in three months..." Although Lin Xin had already expected that there would always be some geniuses in this world, but he could enter Xiantian in three months, which is the fourth level and above of Xiao Guiyuan Jue.
He couldn't help but feel shocked.
Even his junior sister An Ying, who was much more talented than him, spent at least several years of hard training before reaching the second level.
If he didn't rely on Yin blood, it might take him at least three years to enter the second level. Even if he used Yin blood, it would still take time to digest, and the total digestion time would be much worse than others.
The Dugu siblings had withdrawn their gaze at this time, and they were whispering something. Under the activity of the boatman, the two boats were far away from each other. They didn't even bother to look at Lin Xin, Kong Yuhui and others. They were not from the same world at all.
"Don't worry about them. Let's not talk about whether we have a chance to enter Qi training. Even if we go in, it is estimated that many years have passed, and the foundation may have been established long ago." Kong Yuhui laughed at himself a little.
"This senior brother is too arrogant to belittle himself." The young boatman said, "Look at the two adults Dugu, why don't I wait to see you? You still have innate potential, but we have only managed to cultivate our inner energy.
Many of them have taken fake methods such as blood pills, and cultivation is difficult, and the higher the level, the more troublesome it becomes."
