It was late autumn, and the branches were full of frosty leaves.Lingsha hummed a little tune, sat down by the stream, and put a small bag of saponins in her arms on the big rock beside her.

This is a good place that Ziying found near Jianzhong.The source of the creek is a steaming hot spring not far away.The stream is winding, and when it flows here, it is still warm with white smoke.When the weather turns cold, Lingsha likes to come here to wash her hair.Firstly, you won’t feel cold, and secondly, you can watch the red leaves, which is quite comfortable and comfortable.

Since the beginning of autumn, Lingsha has been in a particularly good mood.It's not that she was in a bad mood before, but now life is peaceful, and Ziying is considerate and considerate, no matter which aspect, there is really nothing to worry about.However, her recent mood can be described as the icing on the cake, because Lingsha found that she did not know when, and gradually became very lucky in wealth.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the time to gather wealth and treasure.The old ways of making money are long gone.Although Lingsha has never been short of money to spend, and often has some surplus to help others, occasionally she still laments the good time of a hundred years ago when the wealth was abundant.Every time at this time, Ziying's eyes would show unconcealable worry, as if she was afraid that she would be confused for a while and would come back out of the rivers and lakes again.

However, in the past one or two months, things have been different.She didn't know where to start counting.Is it from a box of valuable emerald tins found in the room of the inn one day, or from the fact that when they visited Huaimi in Juchao country, they gave her several high-quality pearl shells? ...Not long ago, when she went to the bank to withdraw money, the owner of the bank actually overcalculated the interest for her. She kindly pointed it out for him, but he insisted that he did not make a mistake in the calculation.Another day, she went to the market to buy things, and spent almost all the broken silver she brought with her, but on the way back, she knocked a mob unconscious, and the mob dropped two gold ingots... …

At first, she thought it was her fortune.After a while it felt weird again.After being puzzled, he finally decided again that it was his fortune.It's just... it's too long to take the lead...

Anyway, it's a good thing.As long as she thinks of this, her mood will be extraordinarily comfortable, and she will hum the ditty even more joyfully.She reached out and untied one side of her hair, letting the braids fall on her shoulders, then picked up the hair ornament in her hand and looked at it carefully.This was the first thing Ziying gave her, and it was made by Ziying herself.At that time, he was locked in the Sword Forging Hall alone, and he was busy in secret for several days. When he came out, he wrapped this little gift that condensed his painstaking efforts in a silk handkerchief and gave it to her.Although he didn't say any reason, Lingsha can naturally understand his intentions.

There are a pair of hair ornaments, each with a gemstone-carved flower bud, about half the size of a thumb.The buds are round and full, as if they are about to bloom immediately, the petals wrapped together are dense and thin, and the shallow layers are lifelike.The outermost petals are slightly open, and the tip is so thin and transparent that it takes a lot of care to polish it like this.There are small holes pierced in the receptacle, and two thin ropes of different lengths made of ice silk are tied.The longer strands were apparently used to tie the hair, while the shorter strands had a slippery bead dangling from the end.The two flower buds are dark red, which is not eye-catching at first glance. Only when you look closely, you will find that there are textures and depths in the dark red.But the colors of the two pendant beads are unpredictable. When wearing this headdress, as long as Lingsha's head moves slightly, the two small beads will shake behind her head and emit colorful lights , which made her black eyes look radiant, bright and lovely.

Since having these hair accessories, Lingsha always wears them.The original hair accessories did not match it, so of course it was not used.Instead, she braided her long hair into two even braids, then coiled the braids into the shape of a bag, and tied them with silk strings.In this way, although it is different from the original, it has the same effect.

Lingsha likes this pair of hair accessories very much. When she takes them off before going to bed at night, she often plays with them on her palm.At any time, the pair of buds feel slightly warm to the touch, probably because they were infused with inspiration during production.She knew very well about treasures and jewelry, but looking at the pair of hair accessories, she couldn't tell what kind of gems they were made of.But she doesn't care too much about it. As long as it is something Ziying gives her, she will like it even if it is just an ordinary stone. Besides, Ziying has more knowledge about rare and exotic stones than her. stone, that is not surprising.

She looked at the hair accessory for a while, then untied the braid on the other side, and placed a pair of hair accessories next to the saponins on the boulder.Then, he rubbed his hair loose with his fingers, bent down and soaked it in water to wash it.

She was washing carefully, suddenly, with a soft "pop", the soap locust bag slid off the boulder.She looked up, and saw a thin mountain spirit holding a hair ornament in both hands, raising its legs and about to run away.

"Hey!" She got up and chased after him.The little elf fled in panic, and after jumping a few steps, one foot had already stepped into the ground, apparently trying to escape.Lingsha hurriedly chanted a wind spell to blow it into the air, making it whirl in midair.At the beginning, the little mountain spirit still closed her eyes tightly and held on tightly to the hair ornament, but after a while she started to foam at the mouth, and finally yelled loudly: "Please forgive me! Fairy, sister fairy, please forgive me!"

Lingsha snorted: "Stealing with an axe, stealing something from this girl? Are you kidding me! Return the thing to me!"

The little mountain spirit let go with a whimper, the hair ornament fell from the whirlwind, and Lingsha caught it.

The wind curse just stopped.

The little mountain spirit fell to the ground and groaned for a long time before sitting up rubbing his buttocks.Seeing that it was wrinkled, although it was a goblin, Lingsha looked more like a little hungry ghost, so she squatted down and asked in a slow tone, "Little monster, why are you stealing my things? Girls use it to tie their hair, not for you to eat."

The little mountain spirit choked up and said, "I didn't steal it to eat..."

Lingsha said: "Then what are you doing stealing?"

The little mountain spirit looked at the hair ornament in Lingsha's hand with tears in his eyes: "I grew up in this mountain forest since I was a child. I don't have to worry about eating and drinking. My only hobby is to collect all kinds of ores and play them at home... Although I I am very poor, but I am willing to give everything to exchange for strange stones. Not far from here, there lives a master swordsman—”

"Sword Immortal?...A master?" Lingsha was taken aback for a moment, "...Could it be that you are talking about Ziying?"

"You recognize him?" The little mountain spirit's voice trembled with excitement. "I heard, I heard that there are many rare and rare stones in his house, which are dazzling and rare in the world! I tried to sneak in several times to feast my eyes, but I was trapped by the trap at the door—"

"I'm afraid you don't just want to feast your eyes." Lingsha snorted.

The little mountain spirit flinched, but his eyes were still staring straight at Lingsha's hair ornament: "I've only seen the fortune-telling orb on your body once before, and it's a treasure that's hard to find even with iron shoes. I want it even in my dreams...but you, you actually have two..." As he spoke, he began to cry again.

"Wait a minute—" Lingsha said strangely, "I have seen the Lucky Jubao Orb, but it was a long time ago. It is something that only exists on the God of Wealth, how can I have it here?"

"You obviously have it!" Xiao Shanjing said aggrievedly, "Isn't that what you have in your hand!"

Lingsha looked down at the pair of hair accessories in her hand: "...Huh?"

Seeing that she was very confused, the little mountain spirit wiped his nose, stood up proudly, and spoke with a lot of confidence: "I have read countless treasures in my life, although I can't collect them all...cough, but I will never lose my sight." It's only natural that you can't see the mystery with your naked eyes."

Lingsha glared at it: "Say something quickly, what are you dragging! If you don't say anything, be careful that I will blow you into the sky and make you unable to come down for ten days and a half months!"

"Okay, okay..." The little mountain spirit trembled, nodded again and again, and then said seriously: "The two flowers in your hand look like they were carved out of a whole gem, but in fact there are hidden gems in each of them. It is holding a fortune-gathering orb. The outer petals are carved layer by layer with smelted scarlet cloud flint and strange stone, and then pasted on it. It is believed that the magic of the fairy family can be used to fuse so seamlessly. As for the two beads hanging from the rope, they are made of iridescent amber..." Having said this, he sighed again, "everything is the best of the best. I really don't know how the people who carved it found To these stones..."

Lingsha listened to what it said in a serious manner, and gradually lost her mind.Leaving aside the Crimson Cloud Flint, Strange Stone and Rainbow Amber, how did he get this fortune-gathering orb?It's no wonder that I have been making a lot of money in the past two months. It turns out that it is because I have always carried the orbs of the God of Wealth with me, and they are a pair!However, the God of Wealth does not mean that he can be seen just by meeting him. The last time the three of them saw him was in a fantasy world, so Ziying...

Her thoughts turned, and then she thought of the reason why he gave her the beads.Presumably he listened to her unintentional exclamation, but worried that it would be too obvious that she would not accept it, so he came up with such a subtle and natural way to help her attract more money.I don't know, is he worried that she feels more stretched, or is he worried that she plans to return to her old job?Thinking of Xiao Ziying's thoughts and hard work when making this thing, she felt both warm and very interesting in her heart.

"So, you saw that this thing is good, so you plan to steal it?" Lingsha has only moved to Jianzhong for a few months, and it seems that this mountain spirit doesn't know that she and Ziying know each other.When he found that she was wearing a pearl on her head, he wanted to steal it while she was washing her hair.

"I, I only stole one, and left one for you..." the mountain spirit muttered softly.

"So I have to thank you?" Even though she said that, the anger in her heart has long since dissipated, because Lingsha is in a good mood at the moment, and the whole person feels light. "No matter what kind of orb it is, if you want to steal what Ziying gave me, it will be useless even if you practice for another 1000 years!"

The little mountain spirit seemed to be frightened, pursed his lips, and said nothing pitifully.

"However, I really have to thank you!" After speaking, she returned to the stream with a smile and picked up the bag of saponins. "When I finish washing my hair, you can go back with me, I have something nice for you."

When the little mountain spirit heard it, his eyes lit up immediately: "Is it a treasure orb for attracting wealth?"

"How is it possible~~" Lingsha immersed her hair in the water again. "I guess, what Ziying got from the God of Wealth is just two."

The little mountain spirit shook his head, and said regretfully, "If I had the Lucky Treasure Bead, I wouldn't be as poor as I am now, and I could use the money to exchange for beautiful stones... Sigh..."

Lingsha laughed out loud.

Even so, Xiao Shanjing waited obediently for her to finish washing her hair.Lingsha dried her hair with immortal techniques, carefully braided her braids, and then re-coiled her hair and tied it with hair accessories.Xiao Shanjing looked at the back of her head and sighed with envy.

Lingsha took it back to the sword mound, told it to wait at the door, and walked into the sword mound by herself.

The sword casting hall was quiet, so Lingsha came to the study.Sure enough, Ziying was reading a book alone inside.Seeing her come back, he put down the book.

"Ziying~"

Lingsha's eyes were full of smiles.

"Ziying, can you give me one of those beautiful stones of yours?"

Ziying was taken aback for a moment, then got up and walked to the hall where the stone materials were stored.Lingsha followed him into the room, but saw Ziying went straight to a row of shelves against the wall, and took out a piece of light purple-blue ore and handed it to her.The ore had a soft light and a powerful aura. Lingsha looked around the room and found that there was only one stone of this kind in Ziying's dazzling collection.She lowered her eyes and slowly turned the stone in her hand.On weekdays, she rarely asks Ziying for things, but once she does, Ziying will just give her the best, regardless of the reason.

She shook her head with a smile, and stuffed the stone back into Ziying's hand.Although Ziying was a little surprised, she still didn't speak.Lingsha walked to the frame and saw a small pile of identical stones on one end of the frame, there were seven or eight pieces in total, she pointed to them and said, "This one, is it okay?"

"of course."

Lingsha then took the smallest piece.The gemstone is shiny, smooth as jade, and dazzling.It is expected that the little mountain spirit will like it.

as expected.As soon as she came out of the sword mound, the little mountain spirit who was squatting under the tree saw the spar in her hand, and immediately jumped forward exclaiming: "Ah! Ah! This is the Sunshine Crystal! There are no impurities! It’s the best! It’s really the best!”

Seeing it dancing happily, Lingsha couldn't help laughing.The little mountain spirit thanked her earnestly, and then thanked the "Sword Immortal Master" at the gate of the Sword Tomb, and then happily went away holding the stone.

When Lingsha returned to the study, Ziying had just picked up the book not long ago.Seeing that she came back after going out for a while, and the ore in her hand was gone, she inevitably showed a little curiosity.Lingsha walked to him and sat down, stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Ziying, thank you!"

Ziying was taken aback for a moment, thinking she was talking about the gift of the stone just now, she said, "You don't need to say thank you."

Lingsha smiled again, stretched out a hand, and gently held his hand: "...that old guy, the God of Wealth, has a bad temper. Isn't he very cunning?...Little Ziying, you It's hard for you to go find him."

After hearing her words, Ziying was not only surprised, but also slightly embarrassed.Although his face still looked calm, his eyes shifted a little, and his ears were slightly red.Lingsha then tightened his hand, and said softly: "Ziying, thank you."

Ziying looked at her, her clear black eyes reminded her of the day he gave her hair accessories.At that time, she didn't know how much thought he had spent on this little gift.She held the hair ornament on the square handkerchief in surprise, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful! Ziying, thank you!"

And Ziying at that time was the same as now, looking at her with a slight smile: "You don't need to say thank you."
