The food at home was originally enough for the whole family, but with a big snake, it was hard to tell. Fortunately, many people in the village raised chickens, ducks, and geese at home. Zhou Zihao bought dozens of them in one go and asked the seller to help them tidy up. Yang Dashuai was also not idle. He drove to the big supermarket in the county and bought two more pots in fear that the food would not be enough. Even Grandpa Zhou in his eighties was busy. He directed Fatty Wang to move some bricks and cement out of the old house. The old man relied on the craftsmanship he developed when he was young and set up two earthen stoves.
Everyone was busy going round and round, but Lin Qingyin was entangled by the white snake and was forced to chat with it. They think the two were chatting, but it was more like the white snake talking on its own. It was so talkative that Lin Qingyin couldn't open her mouth at all. Lin Qingyin stared at it while it was talking. She regretted helping the white snake fixed its transverse bone. She didn't expect a snake of hundreds of years to talk so much. Her golden tortoise was not like this back then.
The scent of the stewed duck in the yard was getting stronger and stronger. Lin Qingyin couldn't sit still, she stood up to go outside and take a look. The white snake was now in a spiritual state and can't get out at all. It can only look at Lin Qingyin with tears in the eyes. If it weren't for its too large body, Lin Qingyin would regard it as a baby.
Alright, alright, it was pleasing to the eyes anyway.
Lin Qingyin took out another jade from her bag, and while carving it, she couldn't help but murmur: "It's the first time we met it, but it cost me two jades. Do you know how difficult it is to make money now? If you aren't cute, I wouldn't waste jade on you."
After hearing this, the white snake tried to shrink its body a little and lean its head on Lin Qingyin's shoulder, making a shy look. Lin Qingyin almost got goosebumps by its movements. Fortunately, the white snake has the kind of indistinguishable teenage voice. If it has the voice of a middle-aged man, she will lift her foot and kick it out.
Lin Qingyin stopped paying attention to it and engraved the formation without raising her head. Unlike the jade talisman made for ordinary people, she imposed three formations on the jade this time.
The most basic was the space formation method. It looks like a small piece of jade on the outside, but the space inside was huge enough for the white snake to swim inside. The second was the Yin Gathering formation. After all, the white snake has no physical body, only its soul remains. With this formation, it can hide here in the jade during the day. Its spiritual body will not be harmed. The third was the spiritual gathering formation. If it relies on the spiritual energy of the jade alone, it can be estimated that the spiritual energy inside will be consumed within 10 days. But after putting spiritual gathering formation, the spiritual energy in the surroundings will continuously replenish the jade. As long as the white snake doesn't do anything that particularly consumes spiritual energy, the jade can be used for at least several decades.
After engraving formations, Lin Qingyin put a hole in it, tied it with a red rope, and put the jade in her palm, then said to the white snake, "You want to come in?"
The white snake happily twisted its body and dived into the jade.
After Lin Qingyin went out, she handed the jade to Grandpa Zhou and told him that the white snake was hiding in this jade. Grandpa Zhou excitedly took the jade that Lin Qingyin handed to him. Through the light, one could vaguely see a small white snake roaming inside.
