It's best not to tell others about the Lin family's affairs so easily.
Thinking of this, Lin Jingge suddenly turned her head to look at Lin Shu, whom she had placed on the bench.
Because Lin Shu's physique resembled that of a child not even four years old, they couldn't get rid of him immediately.
But when Lin Jingge thought about what Xiao Shi had just said, she felt that something was off about the child.
There are examples of people who have reversed aging in this world.
Before Lin Jingge could think any further, there was another knock on the door.
"Bang bang bang—" A rapid knocking sound rang out.
Grandma Lin and Lin Jingge exchanged a glance. Lin Jingge stepped forward, opened the door to the room, walked to the front door, and lowered the latch.
The door opened a crack, and Lin Jingge peeked out, only to see a familiar crowd.
The village chief led the heads of the four major families to stand at Lin Jingge's door again.
"Village chief, is there anything else?" Lin Jingge frowned slightly as she looked at the village chief who had returned, and then opened both doors wide.
The village chief also sensed that something was wrong, but he was surrounded by a group of people he couldn't afford to offend, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "They want to buy the spirit fields you have."
“Oh, the Spirit Field…” Lin Jingge murmured.
Thinking of Granny Lin's evaluation of that spiritual field, Lin Jingge actually refused to sell it. After all, even a fool would know that such an unusual phenomenon was strange.
It's hard to say whether it's a treasure or a curse.
Thinking of this, Lin Jingge raised her eyes and quickly scanned the people in front of her.
She couldn't see through the cultivation levels of the four clan leaders, and with just one glance, she suddenly felt immense pressure.
Faced with this group of people, she probably couldn't keep that spiritual field even if she didn't sell it, so she might as well gain more benefits.
"Who among you wants to buy that spiritual field?" Lin Jingge asked the four clan leaders.
The four clan leaders exchanged glances, and then each took turns speaking.
There was only one plot of land, but there were four of them.
Listening to them arguing at the door about who should own the sacred field, the argument escalated, and the village chief, who was standing closest, felt uneasy under the pressure of the four clan leaders, and sweat poured down his forehead.
He quietly wiped the sweat from his brow, gazing at the sky, wondering when this argument would end.
“If you keep talking like this, I’m afraid you’ll talk until dark and still not reach a conclusion,” Lin Jingge said.
The four of them immediately fell silent, their eyes all turning to Lin Jingge.
The four of them didn't withdraw their pressure, and in that instant, Lin Jingge was almost forced to her knees by the pressure of the Great Spirit Master.
She gripped the threshold, her legs trembling, trying to suppress the fear in her heart.
Seeing this, the four of them withdrew their oppressive aura, finally allowing Lin Jingge to breathe a sigh of relief.
"I wonder what insightful opinion Miss Mu has?" It was Qian Zhong who spoke. Among the three clan leaders beside him, he was the most familiar with Lin Jingge.
"I wouldn't call it a brilliant idea, it's just that I've come up with a solution." Lin Jingge straightened up, parted her red lips slightly, and slowly explained her solution: "Since we can't reach a conclusion by arguing, why don't you hold an auction? The highest bidder wins."
Upon hearing this, the four of them were stunned, not expecting Lin Jingge to come up with such a solution.
However, it must be said that under these circumstances, this method is the best.
Finally, the four began bidding.
It's just a low-grade spirit field; normally, they wouldn't even look at it, but right now, the price has skyrocketed.
In the end, the wealthy and powerful Clan Chief Zhao spent a thousand low-grade spirit stones to buy the spirit field.
He reluctantly paid the spirit stones.
This price surprised Lin Jingge.
She had never seen so many spirit stones before!
Lin Jingge handed over the land deed and sent the person away.
Closing the door blocked the villagers' view from outside.
Just as Lin Jingge was about to put the spirit stones piled on the ground into her spatial storage, Qun saw Lin Shu run out of the main room and pounce on the spirit stones, picking one up and biting into it.
Apart from the few pieces that Lin Shu was holding, Lin Jingge put the rest into her spatial storage.
——
The pressure on the village chief only disappeared after the others left.
The villagers immediately surrounded them.
They just saw it; there were so many spirit stones, spirit stones that are more valuable than silver!
The Mu family has really struck it rich this time.
The village chief, annoyed by the barrage of questions, scolded them a few times and sent them on their way.
That piece of spiritual land was actually sold to him. If he had known it was so valuable, he would never have sold it for such a low price.
The village chief was also envious of that pile of spirit stones. Just thinking that if he hadn't sold the spirit field, those spirit stones would have become his own made his heart ache.
.
After dinner and washing up, Lin Jingge pulled Lin Shu back to the house.
It wasn't completely dark yet, just a little darker.
As soon as Lin Shu entered the room, she ran to the bedside and climbed onto it with her butt sticking out.
He ate several spirit stones, and now he didn't want to do anything. He just felt his eyelids getting heavy and he wanted to sleep.
However, just as he put one of his short legs on the bed, Lin Jingge picked him up like a chick.
Lin Shu struggled, then turned back to give him a pitiful look.
This adorable appearance softened Lin Jingge's heart, and she then placed him on the bed.
She summoned Xiao Shi, tossed it to Lin Shu, and asked again to confirm, "You can see it, right?"
Lin Shu sat on the bed, tilted her head and stared at Lin Jingge, blinked, and then nodded.
Then he placed his chubby little hand on Xiaoshi's hand.
Xiao Shi, in cat form, instantly bristled.
"Ahhh—Gege, did you see that? He can touch me! He grabbed me!" Xiao Shi cried out in terror. It almost instinctively tried to run into Lin Jingge's arms, but unexpectedly, despite its short stature and weak strength, it couldn't break free.
More importantly, Xiao Shi is just a string of data, a cat conjured from energy.
Energy, something so ethereal and intangible, can be seen and understood, but how could it possibly be grasped with bare hands?!
Lin Jingge was also very surprised. She didn't expect that Lin Shu could not only see Xiao Shi, but also catch it.
Suddenly, her gaze turned sharp, as if she had thought of something.
Noticing the change in Lin Jingge in that short moment, Lin Shu released her hand, her silver eyes revealing confusion.
Xiao Shi realized that the force binding him had disappeared, so he immediately ran towards Lin Jingge and then hid inside the space.
That's terrifying, this child is truly terrifying.
You should know that after it was captured, its mental alert reached its peak. In that instant, it realized that its energy was disappearing and it thought it couldn't escape.
Xiao Shi was truly terrified and hid in the space, refusing to come out.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Shu didn't like Lin Jinge looking at him like that, so he tilted his head to the other side and then gave Lin Jinge a sweet smile.
However, Lin Jingge was not fooled by that smile.
With a shin-restoring pill readily available and the ability to grab Xiao Shi with her bare hands, she could no longer believe that Lin Shu was just an innocent child.
