Chapter 6 Asking for oneself

Lin Xun's residence is located at the east end of Feiyun Village. It is a dilapidated and desolate courtyard with three thatched huts and a green willow.

There is also a deck of vegetable fields on the side of the yard, which is now full of weeds.

As the first place to live after coming to the Zi Yao Empire, Lin Xun had originally planned to clean up and repair the dilapidated courtyard after dawn.

But what Lin Xun didn't expect was that when he opened the door, he saw many villagers gathering in his yard.

What surprised Lin Xun the most was that these villagers were either carrying some pheasants and hares that had just been slaughtered, or carrying some pots and pans, some were busy cleaning the weeds in the yard, and even a few strong men were repairing the walls and eaves of the ragged thatched huts.

In short, there was a busy scene in the courtyard, but everyone seemed to have a very tacit understanding. No matter what they did, they suppressed their voices, as if they were afraid of disturbing anything.

Seeing this, Lin Xun couldn't help but think about it. He had a vague understanding in his heart, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips.

"Ah, Brother Lin Xun is out!"

"Damn it, Lao Yang, I have said I'll let you have a little voice, but you're so good, I woke up Brother Lin Xun in an instant!"

"Bah! You resent me. You guy was holding a hammer and knocking on the eaves. The pig that slept dead was awakened, let alone Brother Lin Xun? Ah, Brother Lin Xun, I'm not scolding you."

Seeing Lin Xun appear, the villagers in the courtyard stopped their hands and rushed over, looking like they were scrambling to occupy a favorable position to face Lin Xun.

"Uh, elders, I wonder if you want it?"

Lin Xun was also startled by everyone's enthusiasm and asked quickly.

"Brother Lin Xun, you helped Tieshan eliminate the insect pests in the spiritual field yesterday. The methods are really magical, and we admire them..."

A burly man walked out and grinned.

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a middle-aged woman: "Stop talking nonsense! I was a little impatient if I didn't see Brother Lin Xun?"

As he said that, the woman had already looked at Lin Xun, and her face suddenly changed into a warm smile, and she said, "Brother Lin Xun, you will be considered a member of our Feiyun Village in the future. You live alone, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient, so we'll give you some daily supplies."

As soon as the words were finished, the villagers nodded: "Yes, yes! It's still the Liu family's wife who can speak well, this is exactly what everyone wants to say."

A smile from the bottom of Lin Xun's thin and slightly pale face appeared on his face, and he bowed and said, "That's all my fault."

Next, the villagers were not idle either. They helped Lin Xun clean up the courtyard and place household items one by one.

Lin Xun originally wanted to help, but was stopped by the "Liu Madam" mentioned by everyone. He first fed hot water and served Lin Xun to wash, then served a bowl of Linggu porridge and a large bowl of pickled animal meat to serve Lin Xun as breakfast.

The other party was too enthusiastic, and even Lin Xun could not refuse, so he could only accept it one by one. During the chat, Lin Xun had changed his name and called him "Aunt Qiao" and made the "Liu Family Lady" smile.

When Lin Xun had breakfast, the entire dilapidated and barren courtyard had been completely renovated, the ground was flat and clean, and a layer of bluestone was laid. A corner of the vegetable field was also re-cultivated, and some spiritual vegetable seeds were sprouted.

The three thatched huts were renovated, with golden straw spreading on the eaves a thick layer, radiating a hazy luster in the morning light.

In the kitchen, pots and pans are arranged in an orderly manner, and there are strings of air-dried beast meat and wild game hanging on the walls.

In short, it was not until this time that this dilapidated courtyard had a warm atmosphere suitable for living.

Lin Xun smiled and saw all this in his eyes, but he was really moved in his heart. This simple and enthusiastic folk customs was something he had never experienced before.

Seeing that everything was finished, the villagers were about to say goodbye and left. Lin Xun seemed to remember something and said, "Sir, please wait."

Everyone stood there and looked at Lin Xun.

Aunt Qiao was straightforward and neat, and asked directly: "What's wrong? What's missing in the family? Just tell me what you lack, everyone will help you get it."

Lin Xun smiled and shook his head, saying, "Sir, please listen to me. Everyone has seen the scene that happened yesterday. I, Lin Xun, have no other skills, but I still have some means to eliminate pests in the spiritual field. If you need help, just speak..."

Before he could finish his words, Aunt Qiao slapped her forehead and smiled and said, "I forgot this. Brother Lin Xun, it's not to be hiding. My six acres of spiritual fields are like the spiritual fields of the Tieshan family. They are all terrible. Seeing that those spiritual valleys are about to wither and die, I feel really anxious. Why don't you take the time to help Aunt Qiao?"

Seeing Aunt Qiao open her mouth, the others were immediately anxious. The reason why they came to Lin Xun to deliver things and clean the courtyard before dawn was indeed to get along with Lin Xun, but the most important thing was that they had something to ask for.

Like Tieshan, the Ling Valley planted by these villagers also encountered pests. Seeing that the harvest of a year is about to be destroyed, how could I not be anxious?

Lin Xun's appearance undoubtedly made these villagers see the dawn.

After all, the scene that happened in the spiritual field of Tieshan family last evening was really magical. A straight golden rainbow soared into the sky, attracting silver moonlight, and eliminating the insects in the spiritual field in one fell swoop. All of this gave the villagers an unprecedented shock.

"Brother Lin Xun, that... my nine-acre spiritual field has also been infected with pests. The situation is very serious. If you can help me, I will definitely take you as a relative!"

"Is there any serious pests that my family's spiritual field suffers from? In less than seven days, my family's seven acres of spiritual valley will be completely destroyed!"

Suddenly, the villagers spoke in a verbal manner, begging Lin Xun, looking bitter.

Lin Xun was a little stunned. He didn't expect that there would be so many villagers who encountered pests in the spiritual field in his home this time.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little confused, not knowing who to agree to first.

According to Lin Xun's current ability, he can only carve one "light-seeking spiritual pattern" at most in a day. Unless his cultivation level reaches the level of the third level of Zhenwu, he can carve one more light-seeking spiritual pattern every day.

But it is obviously impossible at the moment.

He has been stranded in this realm for two years, and even he doesn't know when he can advance.

what to do?

Who should I promise first?

Looking at the eagerly anticipated gazes of the villagers, Lin Xun was really unable to make a decision.

At this moment, a heavy voice sounded: "You all retreat. After discussing this matter with Lin Xun, I will help everyone solve it one by one."

An old and tall figure walked into the courtyard. It was village chief Xiao Tianren.

Lin Xun bowed: "Bo Xiao, you are here just in time. The younger generation is just here and is confused about the situation in the village. You do need to arrange this matter."

Seeing this, the villagers immediately understood that Lin Xun had agreed. The next step was to see how the village chief arranged it, so they left happily.

Not long after, only Xiao Tianren and Lin Xun were left in the courtyard.

"More than a hundred years ago, there was also a spiritual pattern master living in this courtyard. At that time, I was only fourteen years old..."

Xiao Tianren walked to the sturdy willow tree with his hands on his back, gently stroked the thick trunk, with a trace of memories in his old eyes.
