"Eh?" Ying was taken aback for a moment, only to feel that there was a chill in the air, she slowly raised her head, and saw that there was another brother in the room.

It was an ice sculpture carved out of ice, but its appearance and figure were exactly the same as Qi Lin's, lifelike. If it wasn't for the ability to perceive the ice elemental power contained in the ice sculpture, even Ying herself might have difficulty distinguishing the real from the fake.

This is naturally the ice puppet that Qi Lin made with "Ice Formation Tool". This skill was originally used to create clones. After several years of training, he can already instantly generate frost clones exactly like himself.

"How?" Looking at Ying's surprised expression, Qi Lin said quite proudly: "Although it's just an ice sculpture, when you miss me, just look at it. Now... my brother is leaving."

"elder brother……"

Ying hugged Qi Lin again, and his crystallization had spread to the crook of his arm.

But Qi Lin's body began to turn into countless light spots, and slowly disappeared into Ying's embrace.

About a few seconds later, Qi Lin completely disappeared into Ying's arms, and Ying could only embrace the air, silent.

…………

Liyue Port, Jianglin Mansion, at night.

Standing outside Gan Yu's room, Qi Lin hesitated for a moment.

He really didn't know how to tell Gan Yu's mother. After all, even if he said that he would crystallize for five years, Gan Yu might not believe it.

Not to mention, even if you believe it, how to make Gan Yu's mother accept that she will be separated from her for five years is the most troublesome step.

Forget it... just bite the bullet.

"Boom boom boom!"

Qi Lin knocked on Gan Yu's door directly.

"Is it Mengmeng?" Gan Yuguang knew who was standing outside the door from the sound of knocking on the door, and said with a smile, "Come in."

Only then did Qi Lin push open the door, and saw Gan Yu sitting at the desk, and when Qi Lin entered, she stood up and said with a smile, "Where did you go in the wild again today, why haven't you seen anyone all day?"

"I... I went to play with my friends." Qi Lin's words were not a lie.

To be precise, he found [-] "little friends" to play with him.

Of course, it is impossible for Qi Lin to tell his Gan Yu mother that he went to take over the most amazing assassination organization in Tivat today, and also received [-] killers as younger brothers by the way.

Gan Yu is Qi Lin's mother, so she knows her cub very well, and she can tell at a glance what he seems to be hiding, and asks gently: "What's the matter? Is there something you want to tell mom? What trouble did you cause? It doesn't matter, if we are wrong, just apologize, if we are wrong, Mom will definitely not let you suffer."

Gan Yu has always been very reasonable, even if he loves Qi Lin, he never indulges him.

"No," Qi Lin shook his head, faltering, "It's actually... I..."

Qi Lin hadn't finished speaking, but Gan Yu could see that something was wrong. Since just now, Qi Lin had been hiding his right hand behind his back, as if he was hiding something.

"Mengmeng, what's wrong with your right hand?" Gan Yu narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Extend your hand and let me see."

Qi Lin knew in his heart that he couldn't hide it, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he slowly stretched out the arm that had crystallized to the arm.

Sure enough, after seeing Qi Lin's crystallized arm, Gan Yu immediately showed a surprised expression, and murmured: "You..."

Qi Lin was ready to accept Gan Yu's stormy cross-examination. He was just about to explain, but Gan Yu suddenly lifted Qi Lin up, turned around, and actually showed a gratified smile on his face: "This day is the most important thing." ……finally reached!"

"Eh?" Qi Linzhang Er's monk was puzzled and asked in confusion, "What... this day?"

"So you don't know? Blame me, blame me, I haven't told you about this before," Gan Yu scratched the back of his head, stuck out his tongue, and said helplessly: "Actually, we Qilin clan, in terms of sex... that is, mature At that time, the body will crystallize, and this crystallization will last for several years, and when the crystallization is over, Mengmeng... can become an adult."

The meaning of this "adult" is naturally needless to say. The current Qi Lin is only a child after all, and some things will inevitably be "powerless". "The adult unicorn is now.Eh... eh?

It was only at this time that Qi Lin came to his senses. It turned out that this so-called "crystallization" was not just an idea thought up by the system.

It's the physical characteristics that he, as a unicorn, possesses.

That is to say, when all unicorns reach a certain stage of age, they will undergo this process of crystallization, just like the first time a girl comes to a good thing, it is a manifestation of the maturity of the unicorns.

"The official name of this process is 'Linjing'. Unexpectedly, time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, our Mengmeng has grown so big." Gan Yu nodded, as if recalling something from the past, Said: "I still remember, when I first started Linjing, Master Liuyun borrowed the wind and cooked red bean rice for me."

and many more!Is red bean rice eaten at this time?

"Original...is that so?" Qi Lin had an embarrassing smile on his face, but he still pretended to know nothing and asked, "So, what will happen next?" Woolen cloth?"

"Next, your body will be completely crystallized in one day," Gan Yu nodded her lips, and said, "It is said that the time of each unicorn and crystal is different. If it is fast, it will take a few months. It can end, if it is slow, it may last for several years."

"Will it take so long?" Qi Lin sighed and said, "So, what will my body...be like?"

"Don't be afraid, your body will completely turn into crystals. For the Qilin family, this is a process of rebuilding the body." Seemingly seeing Qi Lin's nervousness, Gan Yu quickly comforted: "In During the crystallization process, you will lose all consciousness, as if you fell asleep, no matter how long it takes, for us Qilin, it is just a big dream."

Hearing this, Qi Lin was finally relieved a lot.

He originally thought that he would be sealed in the crystal for a full five years, unable to do anything. If he thought about it this way, wouldn't he be the same as Yasujuro Katagiri in "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure: Unbreakable Diamond", and the same as the rock? Combined into one, it became a famous landmark of Liyue Port.

Fortunately, I should have just slept for five years.

"But..." Qi Lin's eyes suddenly showed a trace of loss: "For me, this period of time is just a big dream, but for Gan Yu's mother, without me, it should be very difficult. Be lonely."

"It doesn't matter, even if you really fell asleep for several years, for the Qilin family, it's just a flick of a finger," Gan Yu shook his head, and said: "And, as long as you think of the moment of reunion, wait , it makes sense, doesn't it?"

"Well..." Qi Lin nodded, put his face in front of Gan Yu, and said in a low voice, "I will be back soon."

At this time, Gan Yu didn't know that the time of parting had lasted for five years, and Qi Lin didn't intend to tell her about this time.

Instead of letting Gan Yu know the exact time, it is better to make this date unknown. In this way, Gan Yu's mother will have new expectations every day, looking forward to Qi Lin who may "break out of the cocoon" at any time, and return to the her side.

"By the way," Gan Yu seemed to have thought of something, holding Qi Lin's cheeks, and asked, "Although for you, this period of time is just for you to sleep, but what else do you have to do? Do you want to explain?"

After thinking for a while, Qi Lin said, "I only have one request...I hope that after I crystallize, I can be placed at the gate of Jianglin Mansion."

"Why?" Gan Yu was taken aback for a moment, but then smiled and said, "Could it be, you think the front gate of Jianglin Mansion is too open, do you want to squat at the gate and be a stone lion?"

"No," Qi Lin shook his head and said, "I just thought that if I could stand at the door, I could watch Gan Yu's mother go to work every day, and then wait for Gan Yu's mother to come home from get off work."

"Mengmeng..." Gan Yu was naturally moved when she heard these words, she nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."

"As for the remaining time..." Qi Lin lay in Gan Yu's arms and smiled, "I want to stay with Gan Yu's mother all the time."

the next morning.

In front of the Jianglin Mansion's gate, at some point, a strange "statue" suddenly appeared. The material of this statue is neither gold nor silver, and it shines brightly under the sunlight. After a little observation, people can see that the content of this statue is not someone else, but "Heavenly Son of Linzi".

At this time, Qi Lin has been completely crystallized, not because the body is covered with a layer of crystallization, but the whole body has been completely crystallized.

Although the size seems to be that of the seven-year-old child, the weight is quite exaggerated. Even Gan Yu, who is endowed with immortal power, spent a lot of effort to transfer this crystal from the room to the door.

Of course, this will save Gan Yu from worrying that Qi Lin at the door will be stolen by someone else. After all, if it takes her a lot of effort to move it, there should not be many people in the entire Tivat continent. able to move.

What's more, Gan Yu is still around Qi Lin, laying a transparent ice barrier, as long as someone approaches, the transparent barrier will rise quickly, so as to prevent her cub from being touched by people of unknown origin .

At the beginning, people were still curious about this lifelike statue, but it didn't take long for people to get used to it. At most, they would look more eye-catching when passing by.

However, there are also some people who will stand in front of this crystallized statue for a while every once in a while, or mutter to themselves, or say something as if chatting.Some people had smiles on their faces, while others had disappointments on their faces. Some people laughed out loud while talking, while some people suddenly shed tears.

These people are not small characters, Tianquan Xingguang, the young master of the Ke family, Ke Qing, the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Xingqiu, and the master of the Hall of Rebirth, Hu Tao...

Even the foolish executive ladies who are far away in the winter country will come here once or twice a year, standing in front of Qi Lin's "statue" for most of the day, without saying a word the whole time, and finally Leave in silence.

Except for Qi Lin himself, no one will know when he will wake up, but everyone believes that Lin Zi from heaven, sooner or later... will come again.

(End) Five years passed in the blink of an eye.

For a person, five years does not seem to be a short period of time. After all, even if a person can live to an octogenarian age, the "five years" in his life will not exceed twenty.

But for a city, or those "immortals" whose lifespan is unknown, five years is nothing more than a blink of an eye.

And during these five years, many small and big incidents happened in Liyue Port.

For example, five years ago, Tianxiang Linzi suddenly crystallized, standing in front of Jianglin Mansion day and night, becoming a landmark of Liyue Port.

For example, Yuheng star Yasuo among the Liyue Seven Stars has officially resigned, and a successor has not yet been selected. The Liyue Seven Stars are also "absent" for the first time in thousands of years of history.

For example, with the cooperation of legal experts such as Tianquan Xingguang and Yanfei, Liyue's law has been revised again.

For example, Xiangling, a little girl from Wanmintang, became the new head chef at the age of ten.

such as……

Time has been changing this port all the time, but it has not changed the silver crystal statue in front of Jianglin Mansion.

At this time, several children were gathering at the entrance of Jianglin Mansion, staring curiously at the statue that seemed to be about their age.

"Is that the Linzi from Heaven?" A little girl let out a voice of admiration: "It's so beautiful!"

"Hmph, it's just a broken rock." A boy picked up a transparent water gun from his waist, pointed at the statue, and said with a smirk, "Let me take a bath for you!"

Hearing a "chi", a line of water shot out from the muzzle of the water gun, and when it was about to rain on the statue, a transparent barrier suddenly rose in front of the statue, and the The waterline, however, immediately turned into an ice skate, fell to the ground with a "snap", and shattered into ice scum.

This is exactly the ice barrier that Gan Yu set up for her cub to prevent Qi Lin from being disturbed by others.

"Hey! You brats!" The gate of Jianglin Mansion suddenly opened, and a blond girl in a maid outfit came out, waving a broom, and angrily said: "This is not Your toys!"

This maid is none other than Thor from Jianglin Mansion. This year has been the 12th year she has lived in Jianglin Mansion. However, her appearance is still the same as it was 12 years ago, without any difference.

As a dragon, her life span is not as exaggerated as that of a unicorn or a fairy, but it is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary humans.

"slightly!"

The little boy with the water gun grimaced at Tolby, stuck out his tongue, pointed the water gun at the statue of Qi Lin, and scolded with a smile: "I just want to play! What can you do to me! You have the ability hit me?"

Thor naturally couldn't hit them. After all, she couldn't control her strength. If she really slapped her, this brat would probably be squeezed into a meatloaf on the spot.

As he said that, the boy repeated his old tricks and once again pressed the trigger of the water gun towards Qi Lin's statue.

However, this time, not a single drop of water flowed out of the water gun. Then, there was only a "crack", and a flash of lightning flashed above the water gun. The boy felt as if the hand holding the water gun had been electrocuted. Generally, he quickly let go, and the fragile water gun fell directly to the ground and shattered.

"I...my water gun! This is what my father just bought for me!" The brat's face immediately lost the arrogance, but cried with a look of grievance: "It's over! I'm going to be punished again when I go back!" beat up!"

"It must be the heavenly linzi who appeared! Who told you to play tricks on him! Let's run, so as not to suffer together!" Seeing this, the other children were afraid that their toys would also be doomed, and they all ran away. Run to fall.

"These brats really have nothing to do."

At this moment, I saw a young girl walking slowly to the door of Jianglin Mansion. She looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. Her long purple hair was tied into two ponytails, and the two sides were tied into cattails. Ear-like bun.

Her appearance is extremely beautiful, but it is not soft, but gives people a sense of heroism. There is a delicate long sword hanging on her waist, just like a young girl swordsman.

"Sister Keqing, are you here again?" Seeing the old acquaintance, Thor immediately waved his hand and greeted, and said with a smile: "Your thunder element is really getting more and more proficient in using it, that little villain, it really is I owe it to you."

This purple-haired girl is none other than Ke Qing, the young lady of the Ke family.

Five years later, she was already seventeen years old. As the so-called eighteenth year of female change, compared to when she was 12 years old, not only her facial features are more profound and beautiful, but her figure is also completely different from Japanese.Especially the pair of slender beautiful legs, against the backdrop of black stockings, looked extraordinarily charming.

"It's also a child, how many people can compare to Qi Lin?" Ke Qing shook her head, but said with a wry smile: "Also, hearing you call me 'sister' always feels a bit weird."

Indeed, the current Keqing seems to be about the same age as Thor, and Thor's round face is obviously a little childish, but it makes people feel that Keqing is older than Thor It feels more mature.

But in fact, from the age of five to 12, Keqing was almost watched by Thor from childhood.
