A Feng Shui Master’s Guide to Cultivation

Chen Xiao was a Feng Shui master before his death. He changed his fate to save his master, but died of old age.

When he opened his eyes, he came to a world of immortal cultivation where there...

Chapter 326: Coordinated Progress

Ershun was lucky. If he had not specially customized a protective magic weapon to pick up Shen Yanxing this time, it would undoubtedly be wishful thinking for Ershun to go to Chongxuan Sect to get an answer in person with his mortal body!

But Chen Xiao didn't intend to tell her about this coincidence.

After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao only said one sentence to Er Shun: "As long as uncle and aunt don't object, I can take you on this trip."

The result was predictable. Chen Changgen and Zheng strongly expressed their opposition.

"No, you can't go!" Chen Changgen was furious.

"Why are you so stupid and stubborn, kid?!" Zheng covered her eyes and started crying.

Ershun's eyes instantly turned red. She slowly knelt down and said with a sob, "I am an unfilial daughter. I have always made my parents worry about me. I don't want to go on like this. Please, parents, let me go."

Zheng was so sad that she beat her and cried, "Why are you so stupid? Your silly brother promised you that he would get you some news within a year, so why did you run to a place where your mother doesn't even know about it? What's so good about that kid from the Wu family that you care about him so much? What sin have I committed? Raising a debt collector like you is like trying to dig out my heart."

Ershun was so sad after being scolded by Zheng that she sobbed and said, "Mom, I know this is too sudden, but my daughter will have to leave home sooner or later. Whether Brother Wu has the same mind or he has changed his mind, my daughter will have to leave home one day in the future."

Zheng knelt beside Ershun, wiped her tears with her sleeve and said, "How can it be the same?" If Ershun was willing to marry, she would have been married long ago. She is so beautiful, there are so many good families who would like her. No matter which family she chooses, they are all very close. Whether she misses her daughter or her daughter misses her, it will be very convenient to go home.

Chen Changgen stood aside and said repeatedly: "How many times have you been out since you were a child? Do you know how far the immortal gate is? Can you go there whenever you want? You don't know how much suffering you will have to endure along the way. Just listen to your father and don't go. Just let your silly brother convey your message to you. It's not that we are sorry to the Wu family kid. You have waited for him for so many years. Who among those who know him would not praise your kindness and righteousness?"

Chen Changgen was worried that she, a girl, could not stand the hardship of the journey. In his limited knowledge, whether traveling by car or boat, it was easy for people to get sick from the local climate and die of disease over long distances.

Zheng urged, "Yes, Ershun. Just listen to your parents. You have only lived for a few years. You don't know the hardships outside. Things are not as simple as you think."

Ershun had been filial and caring since childhood, and had never left Zheng's side. Zheng seemed unwilling to accept the idea of ​​going to such a faraway place. Not to mention, if she really married Wu Xinzhi and stayed there, she would never see her daughter again in her life!

She can't bear to do so!

The crying in the yard was so loud that it woke up the child in the house, who also started crying. Sanshuan's wife held the child and came out to see what was going on while coaxing him.

She heard it clearly in the room, and she thought it was a good thing that her sister-in-law had such determination. The Wu family man was a cultivator, and her sister-in-law would only enjoy happiness if she married him, not suffer. Even if the other party gave her a letter of withdrawal, at worst she could find a marriage partner for her sister-in-law after she came back, which was better than wasting her youth in vain!

She couldn't understand why her parents-in-law were so unwilling.

Zheng was attracted by the crying of the child, and her crying became quieter unconsciously. Ershun looked back at his brother and sister-in-law who were standing at the door looking at the yard, and said in a low voice with tears in his eyes: "Mother, please let me go. This is good for me and our family."

It was like a revelation, and Zheng understood everything at once. It wasn't that Ershun couldn't wait for a year, but she was afraid that her family didn't have the time.

The Chen family's courtyard was small. Chen Changgen and Zheng lived in one room, Sanshuan and Sibao lived in one room, and Ershun lived in another room. There was also a small kitchen and a small storage room. In order for Sanshuan to get married, a small room was specially set aside for Sibao from the room where Sanshuan and Sibao lived, and Sanshuan got married in the larger room.

The room already seemed small after having the child, and now the pile of things Chen Xiao sent was the last straw that broke the camel's back, forcing them to face the tight situation in the room.

Chen Chang used up most of his family savings to buy the house deed from Chen Xiao, and had no money to make other plans.

In fact, selling the valuable things sent by Chen Xiao could solve the problem, but Chen Changgen didn't have the face to do so in front of Chen Xiao. Even in a short period of time, he would rather suffer inconvenience than do so.

So, when Er Shun proposed to leave home, she felt that it was because of her that the family was so cramped.

As long as she left, Sanshuan and his wife would move to her room, Sibao would live in Sanshuan's room, and the empty small room would be used as a warehouse, and all problems would be solved.

Zheng understood Ershun's plan and was immediately heartbroken. She hugged Ershun and cried, "Your parents are sorry for you!"

Ershun must have been thinking about it a long time ago, she is not an impulsive person.

Even if she didn't bring it up now, she would bring it up in the future. Just because there were no conflicts in the family now didn't mean that there would be the same situation when Sanshuan's second child was born. She was an old girl who had never married and occupied a room all by herself. Sooner or later, she would become the source of conflicts in the family.

Ershun is still Ershun, and she will always think from the perspective of her family. It is because she understands her empathy that Zheng is so sad.

Zheng and Ershun hugged each other and cried bitterly. Zheng murmured, "My daughter, your life is so miserable. I regret it so much now. I wish I had not agreed to the Wu family's proposal."

Faced with the difficulties of reality, no matter how reluctant you are, you have to give up.

The next day, with the family's reluctant farewell, Ershun followed Chen Xiao and his party to leave the county town and set off on their journey.

In order to make it easier on the road, Ershun changed her dress and put on an outfit that was easy to move in. Because she was in a hurry, she wore an old Sibao dress, which Zheng had altered for her overnight.

After walking along the road outside the city gate for quarter of an hour, Ershun was already sweating profusely.

After she turned fifteen, she had never felt so tired, not because of the time it took to walk, but because the speed was too fast.

Even though Chen Xiao and the other three had slowed down to take care of her, it was still a stretch for someone who didn't exercise much.

"Okay, stop and take a break." Chen Xiao suddenly said.

Er Shun looked up at him in confusion. Her face had become very red from the long journey.

Chen Xiao said to her kindly, "Take a break and drink some water. You've sweated a lot."

Er Shun's face turned even redder, but she didn't try to be brave. She took the water bag that Chen Xiao handed to her, walked aside, drank water silently, and rested.

Shen Yanxing frowned and said worriedly: "Master, it will be difficult for us to get to Hanshan City within a month with Miss Ershun."

Chen Xiao glanced at him and said, "Not only with her, but even if we only take you, it will be difficult for us to get back to Yingxian Island in a month using the normal travel method."

Shen Yanxing had no cultivation yet, and Zhou Wu couldn't even fly. If he hadn't discussed with Xi Yunting beforehand how to travel, he wouldn't have dared to be so bold as to take Ershun, a mortal, with him.

Shen Yanxing became even more worried. "What should we do? Didn't you say that the ceremony will be held in a month? If we can't make it back by then, that would be terrible."

Chen Xiao smiled confidently: "Don't worry, we will catch up."

At this time, Ershun came over, handed the water bag to Chen Xiao, and said worriedly: "Since we are in such a hurry, why don't we hire a carriage?"

Shen Yanxing looked at her helplessly. He had no way of explaining to this girl with limited knowledge, and there was no way he could catch up even by riding a carriage.

Chen Xiao glanced at Xi Yunting, who nodded at him. Chen Xiao then took out the lantern-shaped protective magic weapon and said, "Let's fly over there."

Zhou Wu's eyes widened in surprise: "Master, is this a magical weapon that can carry people to fly?"

Chen Xiao handed the palace lantern to Xi Yunting. In Xi Yunting's hand, the palace lantern slowly lit up, and a ball of light colorful cloud was released, covering several people.

Chen Xiao explained to the three people who were curiously looking at the palace lantern: "This is a protective magic weapon. With it, even if you have no cultivation, you can pass through the vortex portal and travel between the heavenly realms."

Xi Yunting adjusted the function and signaled Chen Xiao, who then placed his hand on the lantern.

"The protective magic weapon itself has the function of coordinated movement. As long as there are two cultivators above the Jindan stage controlling it at the same time, it can move forward in a flying mode." As they spoke, they slowly left the ground and rose higher and higher under the cover of colorful clouds.

"Oh my God, it's really flying." "Ahahaha, it's really flying!" Ershun and Shen Yanxing shouted in surprise and excitement one after another. The colorful cloud was getting faster and faster, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the distance.

Wrapped in colorful clouds, you can't feel the cold inside. The only thing that makes people feel uncomfortable is that you can only stand and there is no place to lean on.

Ershun and Shen Yanxing could not eat the food of cultivators, so Zhou Wu used his true energy to heat up some dry food for the two to eat.

When they were sleepy, they could only doze off while standing. Shen Yanxing was better off, as he could lean on Zhou Wu. Ershun, however, was too embarrassed to doze off next to anyone, so he could only endure the sleepiness, and if he couldn't bear it any longer, he would doze off for a while.

They traveled day and night and arrived at Hanshan City in not much longer than the time they went there.

Ershun was already exhausted by the intense journey. He fell into a deep sleep as soon as he entered the inn. He did not wake up until the next afternoon, feeling dizzy and headache.

After washing up and changing into new clothes, Ershun, still a little dizzy, opened the door.

As soon as he walked out of the house, the fresh air made Ershun feel light-headed. Walking across the corridor covered by the eaves and standing in the yard, Ershun could see the snow-capped mountain in the distance at a glance.

Ershun opened his mouth slightly, shocked by the majesty and beauty of the snow-capped mountains.

Inside the protective magic weapon, one can see the scenery outside through the colorful clouds. However, except for the beginning when Er Shun was in the mood to watch, he felt dizzy throughout the rest of the time.

Therefore, the beautiful scenery, which was completely different from that of Dai State, was so novel to her.

Ershun had a hunch that her decision to follow Chen Xiao might be the best decision she had ever made in her life.

Just like a bird that has flown out of a cage and seen the vast world, she felt that her whole spirit was different.
