After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 122 A troupe came to the village
"But grandpa, why? Why does that persimmon have to feed us for free and give us money every month?" Ah Li asked in confusion.

The old man said: "Because your grandpa, I have the ability. People took a fancy to my ability, so they willingly provided for me."

Ah Li: "...You call that your ability?" Your ability to talk nonsense and deceive?

The old Taoist knocked over, "Hey, why are you talking? Why isn't being able to talk a skill?

"Grandpa will teach you a lesson today. In this world, what you can do is not as good as what you can talk. As long as you practice your words well, no matter where you go in the future, you will have a bite to eat."

"By the way, from now on, no matter whether you are in front of others or behind others, you will call me 'Master'. Do you remember?"

Ah Li: "Remember me, Master."

The master and apprentice here were very happy to have a long-term meal ticket, but little did they know that the grandfather and grandson had been clearly arranged.

Lin Xi: “Now that we have people, it’s time to buy the land.”

So Lin Wushang asked people to buy the entire Taoist temple in the north of the city.

The area there is sparsely populated and the scenery is depressing. There is a mass grave near the Taoist temple. Except for wild dogs and beggars, almost no one goes there.

There was no one, which meant there was no development value, so the government quickly sold the land at a very low price.

Lin Wushang transferred the land to Lin Xi.

Next, in addition to taking classes with Lin Xi, Lin Wushang also had another daily routine - training the Taoist priest, making sure to package him into a great master who could convince the world.

Apart from studying and giving classes to Lin Wushang, Lin Xi basically spent her free time drawing design drawings for the Taoist temple.

It is far more convenient for her to draw design drawings than others, because she can use her mental power to simulate the Taoist temple in the system's holographic space.

With a thought in her mind, a palace was built from the ground. If she was not satisfied with it, she could just erase it and start over again. It was far more efficient than drawing on paper.

After the entire Taoist temple was designed and confirmed that there was nothing that needed improvement, Lin Xi put pen to paper.

Because I know the overall image of the Taoist temple well, I can draw it very quickly, which is called flowing clouds and flowing water.

If she hadn't had to draw a large number of exploded diagrams so that the construction craftsmen could understand them, she could have finished it faster.

When Lin Xi completed all the design work, it was only a few days before the Chinese New Year.

At this time, all the craftsmen in the office have gone home to celebrate the New Year and cannot start work, so they can only wait until spring after the new year.

The New Year atmosphere in the village is very strong. I don’t know which family is killing the New Year pig, and the screams of the New Year pig can be heard throughout the village.

However, the joys and sorrows of humans and pigs are not the same. The pig squealed miserably, but the villagers were very happy and busy around the pig.

Lin Chunniang bought more than a dozen kilograms of freshly slaughtered pork. In the evening, she made a pot of pork stewed with vermicelli. She also added tofu, cabbage, pig blood, etc. The pot was so hot and fragrant that it lit up fireworks just looking at it. It's full of energy and makes people salivate.

Lin Xi finished two bowls of rice with satisfaction.

He wanted to add more, but was stopped by Chun Niang.

"Xibao, look, your belly is bulging out. You can't eat any more, or what if your belly bursts?"

Lin Xi: No, I can still make it.

Because she practices every day, her body uses up a lot of energy and her food needs are much higher than those of children of the same age. These two bowls of rice are not enough for her to digest.

But in the opinion of the Lin family, she had eaten enough and they did not dare to let her eat any more.

Seeing Lin Dayou and Lin Chunniang adding bowl after bowl of rice, until their heads were sweating, Lin Xi sighed melancholy.

I can only go back and start a small stove for myself.

On the second day after the New Year Pig was killed, an opera troupe came to the village. However, this troupe was not singers, but dancers (Nuo opera).

The performers wore masks of ghosts and gods and strange costumes made of feathers and animal skins, and danced to pray to the gods in the open space at the entrance of the village.The dance is wild and primitive, terrifying and sacred, and full of a strange beauty.

All the adults and children in the village gathered around to watch.

Lin Xi also held hands with Yu Niang and mingled with the crowd to watch the fun.

After watching a Nuo performance, Lin Xi found that the person leading the dance was not simple.

The performance was so intense that even after the dance, his breathing and heartbeat rhythms were not disrupted, and his steps were still nimble. He was probably a warrior.

Lin Xi picked up a stone and threw it at him. The leader of the dance dodged to avoid it. His quick reaction and quick movements confirmed her guess.

There is a saying called "the poor in literature and the rich in martial arts". Those who can afford to learn martial arts must not be poor.

Since he is not a poor person, why does he come to the village to perform and earn a little reward money?

It can be seen that his intentions are evil.

The eyes behind the mask of the leader of the dancers scanned everywhere, but could not find who threw the stone at him.

Maybe it was some naughty child.

He didn't even care.

The Lin family was having dinner when village head Liu Shuigen brought two people from the theater troupe over and asked if they could stay at the Lin family's house.

There are more than a dozen people in the troupe. No one in the village has so many empty rooms that can accommodate so many people. As the village chief, Liu Shuigen can only spread them out.

There are not many entertainment activities for the villagers these days. Finally, a troupe came to the village to perform. The adults and children were very happy, so they enthusiastically stayed with the troupe.

There were still two people left who had no place to live, including the dancer and the leader of the troupe. Liu Shuigan took them to Lin's house.

To be honest, Lin Chunniang didn't want outsiders to stay overnight, but Uncle Shuigen had already brought people over, and his house was big enough. It would be too unkind to refuse.

"Okay, I happen to have a spare room at my house, so I can live in it."

So the class leader and another person moved into Lin's house.

Lin Xi originally planned to find an opportunity to spy on the class leader, but she didn't expect that he himself took the initiative to show up.

But this also shows that he is probably here for the Lin family, or her.

At this moment, the class leader was not wearing a mask, and his face was exposed, but the face was still painted with oil paint and his facial features could not be seen clearly.

The other person was similarly dressed.

Lin Chunniang greeted the two of them: "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Sit down and eat something together?"

Class leader: "Thank you very much."

After dinner, Lin Chunniang asked Sanfu to vacate the house for the two members of the theater troupe.

Sanfu went to live in the same house with Lin Dayou.

That night, Lin Xi did not give Yu Niang acupuncture. After washing, she ordered Qin Shuang to stare at the two troupe members and sit cross-legged on the kang to meditate.

It would be fine if the class leader was honest. Once he dares to make any small moves, don't even think about leaving completely.

In the middle of the night, Lin Xi, who was meditating, moved her ears slightly and caught a slight movement.

She released her mental power and "saw" the class leader gently open the door and come out. She went straight to the back door, poked at the door lock for a while, and then unlocked it.

Lin Xi opened her eyes and said to Qin Shuang, "Go and bring him here."
