Shen Shuyi fell asleep as soon as she got in the car. She was not afraid at all that Xie Xinghe would sneak attack and kill her.

Xie Xinghe has a mission to fulfill, and he should not seek death before he reaches Penglai Mountain and obtains the "Taixuan Sutra".

She didn't know how long she slept, but when she woke up, the sun was setting.

She lifted the car curtain and saw that the man driving was motionless, as if he was concentrating on driving.

"Hey, I'm hungry."

Xie Xinghe did not respond.

Shen Shuyi took out the map he had just bought, and the parchment scroll spread out, "Xie Xinghe, where are we now?"

"The mountain road outside Qingshan Town."

Shen Shuyi frowned when he heard this, “Why are you walking on the mountain path!”

"You're not taking the official road. You want me to sleep in the wilderness in this desolate place!"

Really, taking shortcuts to get reborn.

The man didn't even turn around.

Chen Shuyi put down the map and crawled out from behind the curtain. She whispered angrily into Xie Xinghe's ear.

"I'm hungry, let's find a place to park."

"You chose the path. From now on, you will hunt and take care of my food."

Xie Xinghe was not used to women getting close to him, but the fragrance on her body was very pleasant. Why would a witch have such a pleasant body odor?

It is indeed body odor, especially after she sweats...

Xie Xinghe frowned, he was surprised that he would think of these things.

After that day, he always reminded himself to forget the humiliation he suffered in front of the cold pond.

Chen Shu thought that he was ignoring her, so she deliberately leaned over and hugged Xie Xinghe's neck, and acted coquettishly against his face.

I felt his body suddenly stiffen.

"Thank you, Master. I'm hungry... I've been sitting in the carriage all day and my bones are falling apart. Please stop and let me rest."

Xie Xinghe drove the car with one hand, and raised his other hand to pinch the girl's neck, "Let go."

Shen Shuyi loosened her arms and stopped hugging his neck. “Then quickly find a place to rest, preferably one with a stream. I want to take a bath!”

After saying that, she returned to the carriage. The carriage was shaking and she fell asleep again while hugging the soft quilt.

Xie Xinghe drove the carriage to a river, then untied the horses and tied them in front of a tree to let them graze.

When he came back, he didn't hear any movement in the carriage. He lifted the curtain and saw the girl with her long hair loose, lying on the quilt, breathing lightly and evenly.

She went back to sleep.

How many hours should you sleep in a day?

Xie Xinghe leaned against the carriage frame with his hands holding the sword, his eyes still on the girl's face. She looked very well-behaved when she was sleeping.

She doesn't look like the ferocious demon woman she is when she's awake.

She lay down with her profile exposed, her skin was fair and flawless, more beautiful than spring flowers.

Who would have thought that the witch from the Blood Lotus Demon Cult would be such a harmless-looking girl.

“Bang!!”

Shen Shuyi was awakened by the banging sounds. She sat up suddenly and almost swung the whip.

He stopped when he saw the person in front of him clearly.

She frowned in annoyance.

"Xie Xinghe, what are you doing?"

"Come down quickly, it's getting dark."

Chen Shuyi got off the carriage. The river surface was sparkling with orange light, all filled with the glow of the setting sun, which was very beautiful.

She glanced at Xie Xinghe and said, "You go hunting, I'm going to bathe in the river."

Xie Xinghe didn't say anything. After hunting the prey, he didn't rush back, but took a long time to return to the river.

The girl had already washed and was just sitting by the river, drying her wet hair.

The rosy glow of the sunset fell on her face, which was incredibly beautiful. After just one glance, Xie Xinghe looked away and built a fire to roast a rabbit.

The river water in late spring was still very cold. Chen Shuyi slid her legs in the water, and the spring breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers blew from the woods, making her feel very comfortable.

Suddenly, she felt an itch on her feet.

When Xie Xinghe was roasting a rabbit, he heard the sound of water splashing. He subconsciously raised his head and saw the girl standing in the river with her hand raised and looking at him.

"Thank you Xinghe!"

"Look, we have a snack!" She caught a fish weighing about two kilograms.

Xie Xinghe didn't hear what she said next, his eyes were fixed on her beautiful face. The breeze blew, and her hair fluttered slightly. At this moment, the witch was as beautiful as the moon rising above the water.

He lowered his head and continued to grill the fish. It turned out that he couldn't get too close to the witch, otherwise why would his attention be attracted by her again and again.

Chen Shuyi didn't know what Xie Xinghe was thinking. She cleaned the fish neatly, brought it back to the fire, skewered it and started grilling it.

The wind was blowing by the river, and her clothes were wet from fishing, sticking to her body and making her feel a little cold.

Shen Shuyi took off her clothes and said, "I want to dry my wet clothes."

Xie Xinghe didn't want to look at her, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a girl wearing only a bellyband and panties standing up, tying two trees with a rope, and hanging her clothes on them to dry.

"It's a bit cold." Shen Shuyi returned to the fire with his arms folded. The wild rabbit was already emitting bursts of meaty aroma, and the oil was sizzling. The rich fragrance aroused his appetite.

Xie Xinghe frowned and said, "Put on clean clothes."

"Oh." Shen Shuyi went back to the carriage, put on a robe, and came to Xie Xinghe, blinking his eyes. "It's not like I haven't seen it before, why are you so fierce?"

"Shut up." Xie Xinghe didn't even raise his eyes. He turned the wooden stick and turned the hare over to continue roasting it, while also turning the roasted fish.

The roasted rabbit was cooked first, and Xie Xinghe pulled a rabbit leg for her, "Don't mess with me."

Shen Shuyi took the rabbit leg and took a big bite, “Okay, but I have to stay at the inn tomorrow.”

"Don't forget the three-day deadline."

"I don't want to be out in the wild with you..."

Xie Xinghe looked at her coldly, Shen Shuyi shut up, and the two shared a wild rabbit and grilled fish.

Chen Shuyi slept in the carriage at night, and Xie Xinghe didn't know where she slept. But she heard the sound of water in the middle of the night. She pursed her lips, making her look like a nympho. Is she the kind of person who would peek at a man taking a bath?

…

After passing through the mountains and forests, the two saw an inn in the suburbs. The inn was at a major intersection and was the only way to get to Buzhou City. To go to Penglai Mountain, one had to go through Buzhou City by land.

It's really not easy to find an inn here in the middle of nowhere.

"Xie Xinghe, there's an inn ahead!"

"I want a hot bath."

"Yeah." Xie Xinghe responded lightly and drove the carriage to the front of the inn.

When the waiter saw their luxurious carriage, he enthusiastically helped them pull the horses to the stable to feed them grass.

As soon as Shen Shuyi stepped into the store, he heard the system speak.

[Dear host, the male protagonist Shi Zhengchun and his confidante Su Qingyao are here too.]

"Su Qingyao found him?" What a fate.

It was quite a coincidence. Didn't the people from Zhujian Villa go to the government office to redeem the gang of criminals? Then, that vicious woman named Liu Pozi happened to meet Su Qingyao on the street. Her tendons were all broken, so she feigned pity and lured Su Qingyao to a secluded place, where she was abducted. Liu Pozi and the others hated Su Qingyao immensely. If it weren't for them, the gang of criminals wouldn't have been exterminated. So, Su Qingyao was humiliated and nearly killed, but Shi Zhengchun appeared at the critical moment and rescued her.

Because those men were equivalent to eunuchs, Su Qingyao's innocence was preserved. She remained Shi Zhengchun's confidante and didn't have to fall off a cliff and die like her original owner.

As soon as Shen Shuyi and Xie Xinghe walked into the inn, several young people who were eating in the inn looked over, including Su Qingyao and Shi Zhengchun.
