Chapter 1,175: Grabbing Dragon Claw
Lin Tian's intervention caught everyone off guard, and they did not dare to act rashly for a moment. They only blamed and enlightened Lin Tian, saying that this was their Tibetan business, and asked him, an outsider, not to interfere.
Lin Tian did not retreat or give in, like a high mountain that reached the clouds, standing in front of everyone and the Meiduo sisters, giving them a huge sense of security.
And Lin Tian was indifferent to their accusations and words, with no expression on his face. He was not an old man, and this little wind and rain did not make him emotional at all.
The two sides were deadlocked, and at this time, someone gritted his teeth, came between the two sides, and began to persuade.
That person was the militia leader, the bearded man. He told everyone that although Lin Tian was a foreigner, he had saved himself and others again and again. He was their friend and benefactor, and should not be treated like this.
First, he brought up the fact that Lin Tian had done them a favor, which calmed everyone down. Then, he praised Lin Tian to the sky, saying how powerful he was, and secretly winked at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian naturally understood what he meant. This man was not bad. He was willing to speak for him under such great pressure. So, Lin Tian waved the God-killing Sword like a magic trick, and played with fire and thunder, saying that he was very powerful and could completely eliminate the invasion of the snow monster for them without sacrificing anyone.
Everyone was skeptical, and at this time many people echoed the bearded man and supported Lin Tian. It seemed that there were still many reasonable people.
Everyone hesitated, obviously tempted. If they could really avoid the disaster without sacrificing any tribesmen, it would naturally be the best.
But they did not dare to express their opinions without authorization. They all looked at the priests and waited for them to give instructions.
Lin Tian stared at the priests coldly. He had seen some of the tricks and would investigate them clearly, but it was still useful to keep these people now. If they really dared to mention the sacrifice again, although it would be troublesome afterwards, Lin Tian would definitely kill them without hesitation!
The high priest gestured twice, and the priest who spoke for him spoke up, saying that the ceremony could be stopped the day after tomorrow. Since Lin Tian was so powerful, he could give him a chance to try.
After speaking, the priests, in the midst of everyone's thanks, looked at Lin Tian deeply and walked away.
Lin Tian could feel that most of the people present secretly breathed a sigh of relief or hoped that Lin Tian could save them. This showed that most people were actually still sober and had doubts about the priests' practices. They just followed the crowd or had no choice. In short, it was impossible to say what they really thought in their hearts.
However,
there were still some people who stared at Lin Tian with hostility, especially the old mayor. Lin Tian pretended not to know about this. He had a rough guess in his mind, but he still needed opportunities and time to confirm it.
Not long after, everyone worked together to bury the bodies of the robbers, and then they all dispersed. There was still some time before dawn, so they could rest for a while.
The bearded man stayed with a few people, pulled Lin Tian aside, and asked Lin Tian with excitement and trepidation if he was sure he could solve their disaster.
Lin Tian shrugged and could only say that he would try his best, but he could not guarantee it. After all, he had not seen the snow monster yet, and he had no idea how to solve the problem of the intensified snowstorm. Although he was confident, he was cautious and did not make any promises to the bearded man.
What he vowed just now was just a temporary expedient. In fact, Lin Tian was still a little confused about how to implement it.
Lin Tian's words immediately made the bearded man anxious, saying that he must not hurt himself. He just spoke for him so much. If Lin Tian had no choice but to get away, he would be criticized for his whole life!
Lin Tian smiled, reassured him, patted his shoulder, and whispered: "In fact, the biggest problem here is not the snow and snow monsters, but the human heart."
Afterwards, Lin Tian asked the bearded man to send people to secretly watch and observe the mayor and his group of confidants, as well as the priests, and report any findings and situations to him in time.
The bearded man looked at Lin Tian deeply, thought for a moment, and did not ask anything. After agreeing, he took people away.
On the other side, the old lady had woken up, and together with the Meiduo sisters, she hugged the unconscious old man and cried.
Lin Tian walked over, took the pulse and checked the old man's body. There was nothing wrong, but he was old and suddenly too excited and fainted.
A trace of true energy was injected into the old man's body by Lin Tian, which immediately woke him up. Then Lin Tian took out two bottles of healing potions for him and the old lady to drink, and specifically resolved them for them, eradicating all the old problems in their bodies for many years, and their physical fitness immediately reversed for many years.
However, Lin Tian could not cure the knots and illnesses that had accumulated in their hearts for many years.
After hearing the sisters tell what happened just now, the old man and the old lady were naturally grateful to Lin Tian, and they were filled with hope but also worried.
Lin Tian and others returned to Meiduo's house and went back to their rooms to rest.
Li Muxue was still sleeping soundly. Lin Tian looked at her sleeping soundly and fell asleep soon.
A few hours later, Lin Tian and Li Muxue were awakened by Meiduo. After having breakfast together, Lin Tian asked Meiduo to take him to the snowy mountains and teach him skiing and some snow survival skills.
Li Muxue and Meiduo also clamored to go together, so they were taken along.
When they arrived at the snowy mountain, Meiduo took Li Muxue on a sled to play around and had a lot of fun. Looking at the pure smiles on the two girls' faces, against the white and pure snow and sunshine, Lin Tian felt that everything was so beautiful, and the gloom of last night was swept away.
Meiduo began to teach Lin Tian how to ski. Lin Tian threatened to learn all her skills in the morning. Meiduo naturally didn't believe it, but as time went by, she first laughed at Lin Tian's clumsiness, then admired him, and finally was surprised and shocked, and then became speechless.
When they went back to eat at noon, let alone skiing, Lin Tian really learned all the knowledge and skills that she had learned from her more than ten years of experience in the snowy mountains, and even surpassed her. People have to admire his strong learning ability.
After playing around in the afternoon, it was night again. Lin Tian had just finished calling his wives outside when he turned around and saw Meiduo standing behind him in a sneaky manner. Then she grabbed Lin Tian's crotch and ran away with a wicked smile.
Lin Tian didn't expect her to be so bold. He was caught off guard and grimaced. He chased after her in anger. When he turned a corner, he saw her standing under a tree in the distance with her back to him in a daze.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Tian wanted to punish this bold girl. He tiptoed over quietly, suddenly stretched out his hands to hug her, and made his hands into claws, using his special skill - the Dragon Claw Hand!
