Chapter 428 It seems that their master is not simple
Half an hour later, everyone had eaten their fill. Seeing Bai Ji and the others were about to help clean up, Lin Xi stood up, walked over to them and said with a smile, "Grandpa Bai Ji, we can just clean up these things. You don't have to worry about them. Go and have a rest!"
"Then we'll go to bed first. Thank you all for your hard work and your hospitality!"
Bai Ji put down the bowl in his hand, smiled and bowed to Lin Xi and the other kids with his tribesmen.
"Grandpa Baiji, you don't have to be polite. We are all family from now on!"
"Yes, Grandpa Baiji, you guys should go and have a rest. When we return to Linshan Village, we can have a good gathering and exchange medical skills!"
"Yes, you are our medical master, no need to be polite to us!"
The kids smiled and said to Bai Ji and others, telling them not to be so polite.
Seeing this, Bai Ji smiled, stroked his beard, and took his tribesmen back to the tent to rest.
After Bai Ji and the others disappeared, the kids from Linshan Village quickly packed up their things, exchanged glances with each other, and surrounded Lin Xi as they walked away.
After they were far enough away from Baiji and his tent and were sure that they could not hear them, the kids started to ask the questions in their hearts.
"Boss, where did these Bai family members come from? Can they be trusted?"
Goudan's round eyes rolled around, completely different from the honest look he had just shown in front of the Bai family.
"Yes, Boss, we have to keep our space ring and cultivation secrets from them, right?"
After Goudan finished asking, Chen Qing continued.
"Sister, I suggest you don't trust them too much. Wait for a while, get to know them thoroughly, and then tell them these things. Otherwise, if there are people with bad intentions among them, if they know about the space ring and cultivation, it will easily bring disaster to our village!"
Lin Ping said with a serious expression.
The other kids also looked at Lin Xi, wanting to see what she would say.
Seeing everyone's cautious expressions, Lin Xi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Don't tell the Bai family about these things for now. Wait for a while and see how things develop."
"Yes, boss!"
"Yes, sister!"
After hearing Lin Xi's words, the kids agreed in a low voice, and then they discussed some things before dispersing and returning to their tents to rest.
"Grandpa Bai, you got up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer? What do you want from me?"
On the second day, just after dawn, Bai Ji got up and left the tent, waiting outside Lin Xi's tent. Lin Xi heard the noise outside, lifted the tent curtain and walked out, looking at Bai Ji and asked with a smile.
"Master, I have something to report to you!"
Bai Ji bowed respectfully towards Lin Xi and said.
Hearing him calling him master again, Lin Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at him with his arms folded across his chest without saying a word.
When Bai Ji saw the expression on Lin Xi's face, he finally reacted and quickly changed the topic, saying, "Lin Xi, I have something important to tell you!"
"Grandpa Baiji, let's talk in my tent!"
Seeing Bai Ji’s serious look, Lin Xi took him into his tent.
"Grandpa Baiji, sit down. Tell me what you want to say."
Lin Xi took out a cushion and handed it to Bai Ji, motioning him to sit down.
She sat cross-legged opposite Baiji, looking as if she was listening attentively.
"Lin Xi, look at this!"
Bai Ji said this, and took out a talisman from his arms and handed it to Lin Xi.
"What kind of talisman is this?"
Lin Xi looked at the talisman in his hand and raised his eyebrows and asked.
Bai Ji was very surprised to hear that Lin Xi actually knew that this was a talisman. It seemed that their master was not simple.
"Lin Xi, this talisman can make us Bai clan members sign a master-servant blood contract with you. After signing the blood contract, if we Bai clan members have the intention of betraying the master, we will be punished by the contract and die. If the master dies, the Bai clan members will be buried together. If we die, it will not affect the master at all!"
Bai Ji looked at Lin Xi seriously and told her the function of the talisman. He also assured her that it would be beneficial to Lin Xi after signing the master-servant blood contract.
At first, he planned to follow Lin Xi back to Linshan Village, let the tribe members recuperate, and then explain the matter to her and sign a blood contract. However, after seeing the abilities of these kids, he changed his mind. These kids have such amazing abilities at such a young age, and they must have some secrets.
They have known the master for too short a time, and the master certainly cannot trust them wholeheartedly in a short period of time. Instead of letting the master and other children be on guard against them, it is better to sign a contract with the master as soon as possible. In this way, the master and the others don't have to worry about them hurting or betraying them, and everyone can be completely honest with each other.
With the help of the pills given by the master, the tribesmen are now in good health.
"Master, he didn't lie, agree to him! With the constraints of this master-servant contract, you don't have to worry about the Bai family betraying you, and you don't have to be on guard against them!"
After returning to the camp today, Lin Xi quietly took Xiao Que back into the boundary bead. At this time, Xiao Que saw the talisman in Bai Ji's hand, and hurriedly urged Lin Xi to sign a master-servant blood contract with them!
"Grandpa Baiji, will signing this blood contract have any effect on your health?"
After thinking for a while, Lin Xi looked at Bai Ji and asked.
Signing this blood contract must have an impact on Baiji and the others' bodies, otherwise Baiji could have told her about this when they were in the valley.
Bai Ji was touched when he heard that Lin Xi's first concern was whether signing the blood contract would have any impact on the health of their people.
He looked at Lin Xi and said sincerely, "Signing this blood contract requires our people to bleed, so our bodies will be weak for a while, but it won't affect the fundamentals. Take some medicine to warm up the qi and blood, and it will take a while to recover!"
"Then when you return to Linshan Village, you should take care of your health first. There is no need to rush to sign the blood contract!"
Lin Xi frowned slightly and spoke slowly.
"Lin Xi, we have been taking medicine to maintain our health, so our physical condition is very good. After a night of rest and taking the pills you gave us twice, our bodies are very good now. There is no problem signing the blood contract. We want to complete this matter before going to Linshan Village!"
Bai Ji knew that Lin Xi was afraid that they would be too weak after signing the blood contract and would not be able to bear the journey back to Linshan Village with them, so he said this to dispel Lin Xi's concerns.
Seeing Bai Ji's determined look and seeing that he looked very good, Lin Xi nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll follow Grandpa Bai. Do you need to prepare anything else?"
"We need to find a spacious place that can accommodate you and our people to sit cross-legged. We also need a vessel to hold blood. This talisman needs to be soaked in our blood."
Bai Ji spoke without thinking.
"Okay, I'll go find a place, you go back and rest for a while. After everyone gets up and has breakfast, we'll sign the blood contract!"
Lin Xi stood up and smiled at Bai Ji.
After listening to Lin Xi's words, Bai Ji smiled and nodded, then followed Lin Xi out of the tent.
Bai Ji returned to the tent where his family lived, and Lin Xi took a look at the surrounding environment and flew towards a nearby stone mountain.
"His father, how did your talk with the master go?"
Seeing Baiji lifting the curtain and walking in, Big Head's grandmother, who was sitting next to Big Head and tucking him in, stood up and came forward, pulling his sleeve and asked.
Although they followed Lin Xi's instructions and called her by her name, they still called her Master in private. They always felt more at ease calling her that.
"The master said that we will start signing the blood contract after we finish breakfast!"
Baiji stroked his beard and laughed.
"Great! Then I'll go tell the tribesmen and ask them to get ready!"
When Big Head Grandma heard that she would be able to sign a blood contract with Lin Xi after breakfast, she strode happily out of the tent.
Bai Ji looked at his wife's excited back, smiled and shook his head, then bent down to call Datou to get up.
His son Baizhi and daughter-in-law had gone out to collect firewood, and quietly started preparing breakfast with some tribesmen. The master and her friends had warmly entertained them yesterday, so they couldn't trouble them again today, so they could just let them do these trivial matters.
"Big Head, get up! The sun is going to burn your butt!"
"Grandpa, I'm so hungry!"
Under Baiji's shaking, Datou opened his hazy eyes, yawned loudly, covered his hungry stomach, and said pitifully.
"Here, I left some of the dried fish that the master gave me yesterday. Eat some first to fill your stomach. After you finish eating, get dressed quickly!"
Bai Ji touched his grandson's head lovingly and took out a handkerchief from his arms, which contained a few pieces of dried fish.
He had been learning medicine and studying medicinal herbs from his father and grandfather since he was very young, and was very sensitive to changes in his body. When he ate the dried fish for the first time, he discovered its unusualness and knew that eating it was extremely good for the body. Therefore, he only ate one piece of his dried fish yesterday and saved the rest for his eldest grandson.
"Thank you grandpa!"
Datou's stomach was growling with hunger, but he still politely thanked Baiji, then happily took the dried fish and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.
Seeing his grandson eating so sweetly, his eyes narrowed, and he looked so happy, Bai Ji couldn't help but rub his little head again, then took his clothes and put them next to his pillow, and said with a smile: "After you finish eating, put on your clothes and come out. Grandpa will go out and prepare breakfast with everyone!"
"Yeah, I get it, Grandpa!"
Datou filled his mouth with dried fish and nodded at Baiji.
Bai Ji stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked out of the tent, and started working with his tribesmen.
“This is a nice place!”
After Lin Xi flew to the stone mountain, she found an open place on the top of the mountain, which was big enough for her and the Bai family to sit.
She looked around the area carefully, nodded with a smile, and was very satisfied with it.
An idea flashed through her mind, and she took out some medicine to repel poisonous insects from the boundary bead, sprinkled it around the area, and then moved the little bird out of the boundary bead.
"Xiao Que, you stay here. After breakfast, I will bring the Bai family members over!"
Lin Xi touched the little bird's soft feathers and said with a smile.
"Yes, Master. I will protect you in a moment. Just sign the blood contract with them without any worries!"
The little bird flapped its wings, nodded its little head towards Lin Xi and said.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoque. I'll go back first!"
Lin Xi took out a plate of grapes that Xiaoque liked to eat from the boundary bead, placed it in front of it, and then jumped away.
The little bird first flew around, and after making sure that there were no wild animals that could threaten its owner's safety, it flew back to the open space, enlarged its body, and began to eat grapes leisurely.
"Xi'er!"
"elder sister!"
"Boss!"
Seeing Lin Xi's figure flying from a distance, Lin Kang and others who were gathered together to discuss things stood up and greeted her.
They were used to doing morning exercises in the morning. After exercising, they originally planned to make breakfast, but they found that the Bai clan members were already busy and refused to let them start. So they had to give up and gathered together to discuss strategies to deal with the bandits.
However, they did not fully trust the Bai clan members, so they deliberately sent a few friends to secretly monitor the Bai clan's actions in the name of patrolling.
"Sister, what have you been busy doing so early in the morning?"
Lin Ping walked up to Lin Xi, pulled her sleeve and asked in a low voice.
"Oh, I went to find an empty place because Grandpa Baiji came to see me this morning and said..."
Lin Xi smiled and motioned for her friends to sit down, then she slowly repeated to them what Bai Ji had said to her this morning.
"Is there such a thing? Xi'er, there won't be any problem with this, right?"
Lin Kang glanced at Bai Ji and others who were busy in the distance, then walked up to Lin Xi and asked in a low voice.
"Xiao Que recognizes this kind of talisman, there won't be any problem, don't worry, big brother!"
Seeing some worry in Lin Kang's eyes, Lin Xi replied with a smile.
Hearing that Xiao Que recognized this talisman, Lin Kang and the kids were immediately relieved.
"Sister, if that's the case, we don't have to hide the matter of our space ring and cultivation from them. They can't do anything to harm you anyway."
Lin Ping held his chin with both hands and said with blinking eyes.
"Yes, everyone doesn't need to hide anything anymore, just do as we did in Linshan Village!"
Lin Xi looked at his friends and said with a smile.
When the kids heard this, they all looked relieved. Before, when they used the space ring, they had to be on guard against the Bai family, which was really awkward. Now, they can just use it openly.
There is no need to worry about exposing any important information and being overheard by the Bai family when speaking.
"Breakfast is ready, come and eat!"
At this time, Bai Ji walked over from not far away, looked at Lin Xi and others and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go have breakfast first. Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa Baiji!"
Lin Xi stood up, brushed the dust off his butt, looked at Bai Ji and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa Baiji!"
The other kids also stood up and followed Lin Xi to greet Bai Ji with a smile.
Everyone chatted and laughed while eating breakfast together. While eating breakfast, Lin Kang and his companions told their patrol companions what Lin Xi had just told them.
