Chapter 97 Xiaoqing brings back a snakeberry

After breakfast, the Lin family went out to visit their parents' graves and pay homage.

Lin Xi was also brought along, carried on Lin Dayou's back in a bamboo basket, and his little feet never touched the ground along the way.

The cemeteries of Lin Shujin and Lu Qianjin are in a valley in the back mountain. It is a geomantic treasure land that Lin Shujin—no, he should change his name to Li Mi now—was optimistic about himself when he was still alive.

The entrance is a bit secret, and Lin Xi might not be able to find it without the guidance of the Lin family.

After entering, she found that the Feng Shui Treasure Land was really different. It was already early winter, and the grass and trees outside were all withered and yellow, and it was desolate, but the valley was still full of green.

When they arrived at the cemetery, Lin Xi was put down, and Yu Niang took her aside to play and explore around.

Lin Chunniang and others rolled up their sleeves and started working. They cleaned up the area around the cemetery, sweeping aside weeds and dead leaves, and scrubbed the tombstones several times.

The vague handwriting on it is revealed - the first Kao Lin Shujin, born on XX month XX, XX year, and finally the XX month XX day, the late concubine Lu Shi Qianjin, born on the XX month XX day, XX year, finally the XX year On XX month XX, the couple were buried here together.

It was followed by the names of several children of the Lin family.

Lin Dayou asked: "Sister, my father's name is actually Li Mi. Do we want to change a tombstone for him?"

Lin Chunniang: "What to change? He has been hiding it from my mother all my life. What if I change his name and my mother can't find him?"

Well, that sounds reasonable.

Lin Dayou stopped mentioning it.

Several people placed the sacrifices they had brought, lit candles, and burned paper money and gold ingots.

As the eldest daughter, Lin Chunniang first toasted her father and mother with a glass of wine, and then kowtowed three times to the tombstone. After kowtowing, she did not get up and talked to her parents for a while.

"Dad, grandma, I brought Dayou, Erxi, Cuiniang, Sanfu, Yuniang and Xibao to see you.

"You must be wondering who Xibao is, right? Let me tell you, Xibao is our family's lucky treasure..."

After Lin Chunniang finished speaking, it was Lin Dayou's turn, then Erxi, Cui Niang... one by one came forward.

Finally, Lin Xi also bowed and expressed her gratitude to Li Mi and Lu Qianjin in her heart.

If it weren't for the couple, there wouldn't be several children from the Lin family, and she wouldn't be picked up by Cui Niang and live such a comfortable life now.

When she knelt down, Xiaoqing climbed off her wrist.

As we all know, snakes are animals that hibernate. Although Xiaoqing was raised by Lin Xi as an unknown creature that is half snake and half Gu, she still entered hibernation mode after winter.

It hangs on Lin Xi's wrist every day, like a green bracelet.

But now he woke up, probably hungry and going to look for food.

Lin Xi was not worried and let it go.

When leaving the valley, Xiaoqing came back with a fresh snakeberry in his mouth.

It's as big as the thumb and red, like a small strawberry. Just looking at it makes people salivate.

Lin Xi didn't mind that the snakeberry was contaminated by Xiaoqing's saliva, so she took it and ate it.

It wasn’t until I finished eating that I realized, it’s winter now, why are there still snakeberries?
Where did Xiaoqing find it?
When I got home, I found Lin Wushang coming over and waiting at the door.

Lin Chunniang apologized hastily, "Young Master Lin, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. We went to the mountain to worship our parents."

On the other hand, the courtyard door was opened.

Lin Wushang: "No problem."

In the small building in the backyard, Lin Wushang put the box of books he had brought on the bookshelf. This was what Lin Xi had requested when he left yesterday, asking him to collect more books.

She wanted to learn something about this era through books.

When Lin Wushang was putting away the books, she was flipping through a book beside him, eating the snacks and snacks he brought, and didn't say anything to help him.

Lin Wushang had become accustomed to this and thought it was normal for her to be like this.

If one day she became diligent and stopped servicing him, he would feel strange. "I have almost learned English. Are you going to teach me a new lesson next?" Lin Wushang put away the books, took out a golden snake from his arms and handed it to her. Don't be too bribing. obvious.

The golden snake is modeled after Xiao Qing.

Of course, the skin color of Golden Snake and Xiao Qing are very different. Only the two eyes made of rubies are exactly like Xiao Qing.

But Lin Xi doesn't mind the difference in skin color.

For the sake of the golden snake, she showed mercy and said, "Okay, let me teach you mathematics next."

In the process of teaching before, she occasionally gave him some mathematical knowledge, but that was because she had to use it, such as Arabic numerals, time, etc.

Those were all very piecemeal, now she will teach him systematically.

Lin Wushang felt that the golden snake flower was worth it, "Then let's get started now?"

He couldn't wait to absorb the new knowledge.

Lin Xi: "No rush, you go somewhere with me first."

She wanted to find out where the snake berries Xiaoqing brought back were found.

With Lin Wushang taking them along, the Lin family felt relieved to let Lin Xi go out with him.

The two came to the back mountain, and under the leadership of Xiaoqing, they went all the way deep.

Finally, we came to a cliff covered with large vines. At this time of year, it was still green and had not withered, like a layered curtain.

Xiaoqing crawled in along a palm-sized crack on the cliff. Seeing that her master didn't follow, she climbed out again and spat out snakes at her.

It seemed to be calling her, come quickly.

Little did he realize that its size was so different from its owner's that the owner couldn't fit into the cracks it could fit into.

Lin Wushang said to Qin Feng and Qin Shuang, "Separately search to see if there is another entrance."

As for himself, he couldn't hold Lin Xiteng in his arms.

Lin Xi released her mental power and explored the surrounding area.

Mental power is like the tentacles of the soul, which can pass through physical objects without any obstacles and transmit the explored information to her in real time.

Although she was not moving, she could see, hear and even smell things several meters away.

Ever since the attribute of mental power was added to the information panel, she has been exploring how to develop mental power.

Now it is beginning to bear fruit.

Because her mental power is only 11 points, the range she can explore is very limited - a sphere with a radius of about five meters with her as the center.

The mental tentacles can be released in a single line or spread in all directions.

"Come closer." Lin Xi pointed at the cliff and commanded Lin Wushang.

Her mental tentacles vaguely discovered another crack, hidden under the vines.

Lin Wushang took a few steps in the direction she pointed.

This time, Lin Xi's mental power explored more clearly, allowing her to confirm the location and size of the crack.

"Here, push the vines aside."

"What did you find?" Lin Wushang asked, obeying the instructions.

A crack as wide as one person appeared in front of him. Of course, this crack refers to Qin Shuang. Qin Feng would have to pass sideways.

Xiao Qing climbed in first and led the way, followed closely by Qin Feng, who was leading the charge.

Behind the Qin Shuang Palace, Lin Wushang, Lin Xi, and Xiaoyun were walking in the middle, and the group slowly moved deeper into the mountain.
