Fourth Prince Xiao Yu suffers from a strange illness. When it acts up, he feels intensely ashamed and his heart becomes extremely humble. Even when his "moonlight" shines on him, he shrinks...
Chapter 47 It’s none of your business and none of my business
Xu Chuchu finally taught this annoying and clingy woman a lesson, and felt much better.
This is how practitioners like them conduct themselves. They never resort to words when they can act! Uh, that's not right... Master said, this is called speaking with strength!
When I get annoyed, I beat them up until they are no longer right and dare not vent their anger.
She didn't care whether Shao Zhi would complain or ask for help, because they would never have any contact with each other again anyway.
But even when she thought so, she still felt a little unhappy with Xiao Yu in her heart. She felt that this person was clear-headed most of the time, but when facing Shao Zhi, it was like he had drunk a love potion and could not see anything clearly.
He refused to send her away, and not only did he cause trouble for himself by staying, he also annoyed her.
However, she quickly dismissed this idea. It was none of her business who Xiao Yu associated with.
She and Xiao Yu had some friendship, so there was no reason for her to interfere with her freedom to make friends.
As the saying goes, if you want to have a good attitude when you are 99 years old, you can rely on two sentences: "It's none of your business" and "It's none of my business".
Keep these eight words in mind, and ninety-nine percent of your worries will go away with the wind.
Xu Chuchu scratched her head, threw Xiao Yu and Shao Zhi out of her mind, and thought about some serious matters.
She has already boasted that she is leaving Haikou, but she has not yet decided where to go next.
She wanted to recover her previous cultivation level so that she could feel safe, but what would happen after she recovered?
It’s not that she hasn’t thought about going home, back to the modern era, but to be honest, she doesn’t have any relatives in the modern era. Apart from the orange cat at home, she feels a little worried because no one is taking care of it. She really doesn’t have much desire to go back.
She has no parents, her master has passed away, and she has little contact with her uncles. She has never been in love, nor has she met anyone she likes... She really has no memories at all. It would be better for her to stay in ancient times, where no one would know her and she would have to start all over again.
When she was confused, Xu Chuchu took out her Liu Yao and told a fortune for herself.
Many fortune tellers are good at telling fortunes for other people but don't like to tell fortunes for themselves.
Because when a fortune teller tells fortunes, in addition to basic skills, a large part also depends on his own understanding of the "Book of Changes".
However, people often "are confused when involved, but can see things more clearly when on the sidelines". When faced with the answers they want to know, most fortune tellers are unable to analyze the hexagrams objectively.
For example, the divination that Xu Chuchu drew was to ask what choices she should make for her future.
If the fortune teller wants to leave or stay, he will inevitably have a misunderstanding when he sees the result, and impose the result he wants on the hexagram. In this way, the fortune telling is in vain and he will only confuse himself.
However, Xu Chuchu is a very special fortune teller. He has practiced with the help of the "Book of Changes" and has a very thorough understanding of its contents.
Whenever she felt confused, she would tell her fortune, as if asking for advice from her ancestors and her deceased master.
Face your inner self and never run away.
"Tianhuo Family, the thirty-seventh hexagram, three lines change, to the north?" After Xu Chuchu finished divination, he was slightly surprised when he saw the final hexagram.
Heaven represents a turning point, and fire represents the Li hexagram, which means "leaving can lead to a turning point", which is exactly what she is thinking now.
But what does family mean? She is alone and has no family in ancient times.
Could it be... Xu Chuchu was suddenly stunned. Could her master be here too? Is this even possible?
If it weren't for her master, where would she have her family?
Xu Chuchu firmly believed that the hexagram would not lie, and finally decided to go north.
Thinking that she might meet her most beloved master in this ancient time, she felt much more motivated to practice and eat.
…
Over there, Xiao Yu also began to interrogate the tomb robbery case.
His luck suddenly became unusually good.
The tomb robber who was caught alive in the tomb was the second-in-command of this tomb-robbing group. He had killed the original leader and was planning to embezzle the burial objects with several people on his good terms.
Less than two days into the interrogation, he revealed the hiding places and burial objects of his men, and was completely wiped out by Xiao Yu and his men.
Because something went wrong in the tomb, it was impossible to risk sending these burial objects back, so the burial objects "naturally" became the property of the court.
Anyway, this prince was a prince of the previous dynasty, and no one would feel sorry for him if his tomb was robbed.
Xu Chuchu even suspected that the Xia Dynasty emperor's purpose in investigating tomb robberies was the same as that of the tomb robbers.
She thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly Xiao Yu took her to the warehouse to identify the treasures and asked her to pick out the rare items from the burial objects.
The valuable ones will be sent back to the capital, and the worthless ones will be sold on the spot.
The vast warehouse was filled to the brim with burial objects, some even stacked up. Xu Chuchu bent over, identifying each item one by one, placing the rare ones on the left and the common ones on the right.
"These tomb robbers are too good at moving things. They even took the pottery jars. No wonder the corpse silkworms couldn't stand it." Xu Chuchu couldn't help but complain, "You won't let me see all of this by myself, right?"
She was afraid of making a mistake and causing trouble for Xiao Yu, so she carefully examined each piece. She had only just looked at the tip of the iceberg in the morning and didn't know when there were still so many pieces left.
Xiao Yu chuckled and handed her a jade cup. "You know any one of these things could be worth a fortune. I wouldn't feel comfortable if someone else came."
"Besides, am I not a human being?" He said softly, "I am also... accompanying you."
There were only the two of them in the huge and quiet warehouse, and they felt surprisingly safe.
It feels so good.
"Accompany me?" Xu Chuchu laughed. "Young Master Xiao has so many important things to do, so he's not accompanying me, but supervising me, right?"
Xiao Yu looked away and said abruptly, "If you like anything, you can take it yourself."
"What did you say?" Xu Chuchu thought there was something wrong with her ears.
"That's exactly what it means." Xiao Yu cleared his throat uncomfortably again, "Anyway... you know what I mean."
If I try to please her more, will she be more interested and willing to stay a little longer?
However, Xu Chuchu felt that she didn't understand.
Is this still Xiao Yu? Something's wrong. He definitely wouldn't be so kind as to give her the burial items.
This must be a test of her professional ethics! Don't be fooled.
"Don't worry, I won't take anything without permission." She patted her chest and said, "If you trust me, you can let me do it alone. You can go do your work and I'll count the total later."
Xiao Yu: “…”
He was sullen and didn't respond, and handed Xu Chuchu a jade ring.
"What happened to your hand? Why is it still bandaged?" Xu Chuchu suddenly saw Xiao Yu's bandaged palm. "Did you cut it in the tomb that day? The bleeding hasn't stopped after so many days. Did you get infected with corpse poison?"
