Chapter 1280 How did you know?

"This is a good item. When you become even more powerful in the future, this item will also become famous throughout the world with you." The Moon-Accompanying Immortal said with satisfaction, "You have a strong desire to improve, and I am very satisfied with this."

As he spoke, he took something out and tossed it to her, saying, "Consider this my reward for you."

Curious, Zhang Chengxuan leaned closer to look. "What is this?"

"It's a wooden box, I can't open it." Song Chunxue looked up. "Will I be able to open it when I reach a certain level?"

"Hmm, not bad."

"Thank you, Master!" Song Chunxue put away the box. "I have to go home first. My nephew is seriously injured and needs my care. I'll go back and boil some water for him, give him his medicine, and then I'll come back. Also, I need to take care of my older sister and brother; I can't let them worry."

"Okay, go ahead. Don't worry, we'll take care of things here." The Moon-Accompanying Immortal reminded her, "Take your tea stove with you."

"yes!"

Watching Song Chunxue leave in a hurry, the Moon-Accompanying Immortal's expression turned serious.

He said to Zhang Chengxuan, "We can't wait any longer. I'll find out where the person behind him is hiding. Keep an eye on him and don't let him get away."

"Master, go and search with peace of mind. I will stay here and guard you." Zhang Chengxuan understood the implication in his master's words.

Master was worried that they would target Junior Brother, after all, she cultivated too fast. Although she was not considered a young prodigy, she was considered a gift from God in the cultivation world. Such people were the best choice in the eyes of evil cultivators. Master was going to cut off their thoughts.

It will probably take a long time to resolve.

He might need to stay in this desolate place and watch over the old Taoist priest for many days.

He took out his tea stove, lit a fire, poured in water, crushed two dried longans, threw in two red dates, and scooped in a large spoonful of honey.

Autumn is very dry, so honey is perfect for making tea.

However, raw honey is too cold in nature, so it needs to be rolled over firewood to remove the coldness of the nectar before it can moisten the lungs and clear phlegm.

The person on the ground struggled and moved, whimpering incessantly.

Zhang Chengxuan moved his fingers and said coldly, "Quiet!"

"Waaaaah..."

Zhang Chengxuan frowned in disgust at the thought of a grown man shedding tears to save his life, and removed the straw ball from his mouth. "Speak properly."

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. This fellow Daoist is truly kind-hearted. Your master is too ruthless, umm..."

Zhang Chengxuan stuffed the grass back in; he hated things that treated people like fools.

"Waaaaah, waaaaah, waaaah..."

He began to struggle again, his eyes red and swollen, staring intently at Zhang Chengxuan.

"Get to the point, or I won't hesitate to cut out your tongue or knock you out." If it weren't for the quietness of the valley and the abundance of graves around, he would have knocked the man out long ago.

If it were moved elsewhere, it might harm the people.

This place is untouched by human feet, which is excellent.

"I know you won't let me go. Before I die, could I at least have a cup of tea?"

The old Taoist priest on the ground sniffed, sounding terribly pitiful.

Zhang Chengxuan remained unmoved, sat cross-legged, took out a water jug, and retrieved a jug of water from the water tank in his storage ring.

This water was specially fetched from a spring; it's excellent for making tea.

"In order not to appear completely different from my former self, I haven't drunk any pot tea for a long time since I entered this body. My parents back home also drink pot tea. Back then, there wasn't much to go around, and having tea leaves was a blessing. When there were no tea leaves, they would boil dandelion water to drink every day."

Zhang Chengxuan thought to himself that this person was definitely planning to ask about his background.

Every kind and innocent person can be led into crisis by such seemingly mundane conversation.

He had encountered it ten years ago.

So this time, he won't fall for it.

Sure enough, after he had been rambling on about his past for an hour, he finally lost his temper.

"Are you deaf? Is your ears blocked by donkey hair or is your brain filled with water? I've been talking so much my mouth is dry, can't you at least give me a reply?"

Zhang Chengxuan broke open the snow-white pastry, looked at the five-nut filling inside, carefully took a bite, and used his other hand to catch the crumbs underneath, not letting a single crumb fall to the ground.

This tea definitely tastes better when it's boiled. He's been buying jujubes and rock sugar a lot lately, and he gets anxious when he sees the jar of rock sugar almost empty.

But I was also happy.

In this way, he could leisurely go down the mountain to the shop to pick out some rock candy.

He also picked out a jar of wild roses for himself and put it in the tea canister. The fragrance was rich, and the bittersweet taste was unforgettable.

"You're such an insolent junior! I'm dying of thirst, can't you even offer me a cup of tea? No wonder you're still a virgin, no wonder no woman wants you..."

"Smack!"

Zhang Chengxuan broke off a piece of apricot wood stick, threw it into the tea stove, and glanced at him.

"It is precisely because I am a pure Yang body that I have achieved my current level of cultivation. Unlike you, a rotten radish, you spread your sauce everywhere and have children everywhere, but what is the result? Not a single one of you is willing to be your father."

As he poured tea, he kept stabbing the Taoist priest in the heart.

"You have children all over the place, but you don't have the blessing of having children around your knees. This shows how mean and vicious you are. Even your own children are afraid of you. What use is it if you live for thousands of years?"

"You're talking nonsense!" He roared angrily, having been hit where it hurt. "Shut the fuck up!"

"Let me guess, is the person behind you also a pure yang being? That person keeps telling you how pitiful he is?" Zhang Chengxuan smiled. "Did you make some kind of contract with him, so he can enjoy your blessings and still get away unscathed? And you're the one who bears all his sins? Otherwise, your body wouldn't be rotting. Tsk, that person must be lying to you, saying he's taking the blame for you, going to hell for you."

"You're talking nonsense, that's impossible!"

"Oh right, is your wife his childhood sweetheart? When you're at home, he often invites you out to find other women, eat, drink, and have fun?"

Zhang Chengxuan spoke calmly, grabbing a walnut kernel and popping it into his mouth. "By the way, did you embark on this path of no return because you caught your wife being unfaithful?"

"..." The person on the ground suddenly stopped, staring blankly at the tea stove, their throat dry. "How...how did you know?"
