The Eighth Son of The Lin Family’s voice was somewhat uncertain. She did not know if her feeling was correct, but indeed, there was a real unusual difference in her body.
“Never mind, Little Eight. Show everyone what you’ve got.” Old man Lin waved his hand and laughed.
In his view, his youngest daughter must have mistaken some other feeling for the magical rune.
Yet seeing how serious she had been lately, Old man Lin didn’t mind giving her more opportunities to demonstrate. After all, they were family, she wouldn’t lose face whether she succeeded or not.
“Yes, father.”
Lin Xin Tong nodded forcefully, then half-closed her eyes and kept straining her body. Her complexion gradually turned red, which made her look as if she was doing something serious.
Just as everyone was ready to laugh, a dazzling light suddenly burst out of Little Eight’s palm, followed by the emergence of a strange rune. It looked like it was formed by pouring golden juice, emitting a unique metallic luster and was very peculiar.
Moreover, with the appearance of the rune, a grayish-white light vaguely covered Lin Xin Tong’s body, as if she was wearing a layer of armor.
“Treasured Technique!!!”
The first ones to speak weren’t Old man Lin, but Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen. They had fought against the monkey and seen it perform the same Treasured Technique that Little Eight just demonstrated.
“Eighth Sister, how…how did you do it?” Lin Zhuang, with fiery eyes, quickly walked up to Lin Xin Tong and asked eagerly.
Old man Lin’s eyes were equally urgent, his face full of excitement.
He might be an educator, but he was not strictly a teacher. He simply taught the meaning of the Bone Script to everyone. As for what it truly represented, he had no idea either.
It required talent.
If the family daughter had actually mastered the Treasured Technique after just over a month of learning the Bone Script, wouldn’t that mean Little Eight was a one-in-a-hundred training genius?!
“I don’t know how it happened. I just felt a sudden insight while I was listening…and then it just happened…”
Lin Xin Tong scratched her head, the teenage girl had grown tall and graceful. Under the guidance of Old man Lin, Mrs. Zhang, whether intentional or not, the girl had matured a lot and was completely different from her past self.
“Little Eight, is there really no trick?” The faces of Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen were filled with undisguised envy.
If anyone usually worked the hardest in the village, it had to be these two.
But now, the two suddenly found themselves surrounded by a huge barrier. If they wanted to break through, they would have to overcome these barriers.
But the barriers were high and stormy. Who could cross them just like that? Just when they thought no one else could do it, someone had done it right in front of them.
What was even more damning was that this person turned out to be their naughty little eighth sister.
Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen really wanted to ask why!
Why could Little Eight gain insight while they felt as if they were listening to some celestial book, leaving their minds muddled?!
“Um…1’11 think about it some more.” Lin Xin Tong couldn’t bear to see her elder brothers disappointed and said so.
“Or perhaps, Big Brother and Second Brother, I can accompany you during the practice in the future, and we can study the details together.”
Little Eight suggested.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen looked at each other and nodded. They could only do so for now.
“Ha! No matter what, our Liu Village has finally produced a person who can master the Treasured Technique. We have not failed Lord Willow God’s cultivation.” Old man Lin stood up and laughed loudly, enlivening the atmosphere.
That night, Liu Village was buzzing with excitement. The bonfire was jumping, driving off the harsh winter cold.
The women threw large chunks of cleaned Ferocious Beast meat into the boiling ceramic cauldron and sprinkled some natural spices into it.
Accompanied by the crackling sound of burning firewood, the strong aroma of meat soon spread throughout Liu Village.
Compared with ordinary wild game, the meat of the Ferocious Beast was more tender and delicious, each piece of it was of extremely high quality.
The fragrant Ferocious Beast meat was so plentiful that everyone ate until their mouths were greasy and their faces were full of happiness.
In the Wilderness, where predatory birds and beasts roamed and survival was uncertain, not being hungry or freezing was a paradise on earth. Not to mention, they were not only not hungry, but they also had such good food to eat. This was the meat of the Ferocious Beast. If put in the past, it was an unimaginable luxury.
Everyone’s faces were filled with heartfelt smiles. They occasionally looked towards the distant mountains and offered their deepest respect.
Only under the protection of Lord Willow God could they live such a comfortable life.
All of this, it was all because of Lord Willow God!
Worth mentioning was that Little Black also ran over, attracted by the smell of the meat. It emerged from the thick woods, jammed the remaining Beast Meat into its belly until it was satisfied.
“Still not enough, wife? Go ahead and cook another fifty pounds of meat for the Black Python Protector.” Old man Lin called Mrs. Zhang once again, preparing to stew another big pot.
“Black Python Protector, have some more soup to warm up.”
Lin Zhuang and Lin Chen also stepped forward and spoke. As they spoke, they directly brought the ceramic pot with the stewed meat over.
Little Black didn’t refuse, he would eat anything edible. This feast was much more delicious than the bloody meat it usually ate.
Regarding Little Black’s sudden appearance and ravenously eating everything, Old man Lin, Lin Zhuang, and Lin Chen had no complaints, and naturally, nobody else had any objections either.
Ferocious Beast Meat contained vast energy. Even a small piece was enough to fill up on. They had already eaten until they were round-bellied, full to bursting.
Moreover,
For them, being able to treat the Black Python Protector was a thing they would be more than happy to do.
Everyone knew in their hearts that although the Black Python Protector was always out of sight, the peace and tranquility of Liu Village definitely had a lot to do with it.
The gathering didn’t last too late.
In the Wilderness, danger lurked everywhere. Any slight indulgence could plunge them into a situation they could never recover from, so they had to always maintain peak physical condition.
However, after the gathering ended, Old man Lin did not let everyone leave.
“In the Wilderness, every village has their ancestral Medicine bath, but your father did not know about it.
But apart from the True Blood that we use to worship Lord Willow God, there is still a bunch of Ferocious Beast Blood left. After boiling, it can also be used as a bath which has the effect of tempering the body. It might be a little painful during the process, so girls won’t have to suffer. But none of the boys can run away. They have to finish absorbing the remaining Ferocious Beast Blood.”
He swept his gaze over all the faces, Old man Lin said resolutely.
In the Wilderness, a Medicine bath is not a secret, even small tribes of a few dozen people know about it.
But knowing is one thing, and they had never tried it before.
After all, the most crucial ingredient for the Medicine bath was Ferocious Beast Blood. Unless they had all gone mad and didn’t want to live anymore, they would not dare to provoke such terrifying creatures..
