"Master, you're back..." Fu San, who was smiling and coming towards him, froze in expression and stopped talking.

The master worked so hard to help him and finally found a way for him to go home. Isn’t this a happy thing?

But why didn't he feel happy at all?

Instead, I feel empty inside...

He nodded blankly and returned to the chopping block. "Okay, I'll go clean up... Lunch time is almost here, so let's eat first!"

As he spoke, he gripped the kitchen knife tightly and started chopping frantically again.

The chopping sound was unusually loud.

Lu Yunxi just glanced at it casually and was about to sit down to rest for a while, but when his spiritual sense swept over, he found that Fu San was clearly cutting vegetables, but his mind was wandering.

She gasped instantly, rushed to Fu San and grabbed his hand.

"Stop cutting! What's wrong with you? You're daydreaming while cutting vegetables?!" Does he think his life is too long?

Looking at the blood oozing from his hands, she felt even more uncomfortable.

Oh! What's going on?!

Fu San's hand was held. As he walked into the room, he suddenly came to his senses and saw the wound on his hand. He immediately said with guilt, "I'm sorry! It's all my fault for not paying attention!"

Lu Yunxi didn't expect that he would actually apologize to her.

He should apologize to his hand.

She pulled him into the hall, took out the medicine box, and treated his wound.

"Fortunately, you were using a chopping board to cut vegetables just now. If you were cutting meat, the wound would not be so easy to treat!" Lu Yunxi looked at his absent-minded appearance, feeling angry and pressed hard.

Fu San cried out in pain and begged for mercy.

Seeing that he really knew his mistake, she snorted coldly and let him go.

"Okay, just rest since you're injured. There's still time anyway. We can set off in a few days." Lu Yunxi put the medicine box away and said casually.

But she didn't notice that the disciple behind her suddenly lit up his eyes.

It was as if a light bulb lit up in his head, and his eyes began to roll around.

…

A few days later.

Lu Yunxi frowned, feeling a little worried.

I don’t know what happened these days, but Fu San seems to be possessed by bad luck.

When he was going out, he was suddenly knocked down by a carriage that came out from the corner; when he was buying vegetables, there were basically only one or two cheating vendors on the street, but he happened to run into one of them... He even fell flat on his face.

This kind of thing would be fine if it happened once or twice, but it happened almost every day. Lu Yunxi began to suspect that this might be some kind of metaphysical problem.

After all, there really are such lucky people in this world who are possessed by koi fish.

However, for some reason, no matter how she calculated, she couldn't figure out what had happened to Fu San. The results were all normal; he hadn't been entangled in any evil ways.

It's not a metaphysical problem, could it be that someone is causing trouble?

Lu Yunxi thought deeply: Could it be that the disciple is too good-looking, so someone wants to kidnap him?

So, she began to use her spiritual sense to stare at the people in the entire city.

On the street.

A beautiful woman with cascading black hair and a white flower in her hair was standing beside a mat wrapped with something and a sign that read: "Selling Myself to Bury My Father." She was sobbing softly, looking like a delicate beauty, very pitiful.

A young man in gorgeous clothes passed by, gestured behind him, and asked the servant to hand over the silver.

"My lord, I have no way to repay your kindness... I am willing to repay you with everything I have, even working like a slave for you, to repay your kindness." The beauty lowered her head, and no one saw that her eyes lit up, and she was almost glued to the silver.

The young man in brocade clothes looked at her with a lewd light in his eyes. He gently lifted her chin, looked at her pitiful face and her soft body, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Okay, just follow me!"

A young man in splendid attire entered the inn and had a servant give the girl who had sold herself to bury her father some money. He then instructed her, "Go buy some nice clothes nearby to change into, so you don't look so shabby... I, your man, cannot wear such shabby clothes! Come over here once you've changed. I'll be waiting for you inside the inn."

The beauty lowered her head, revealing her white and slender neck: "Yes, sir."

After the two sides separated.

The young man in splendid attire sat in a private room in the inn, a wicked smile on his lips. "Finally, there's a woman again! I'm fed up with the dozen or so women in the backyard! I don't know what's wrong with Dad. He just won't let me go to the Red Mansion. But... I brought this woman back from the street. Dad can't say anything this time, right?!"

The servant smiled flatteringly: "Young Master is wise!"

Meanwhile, the beauty approaching the clothing store slowly raised her lips and muttered to herself in a voice only she could hear: "Hmph! This idiot! I didn't get much money from that family last time. This time, with this lustful ghost, I should be able to stay a few more days and find a way to make more money..."

Lu Yunxi's eyes twitched as his spiritual sense swept across his inconspicuous Adam's apple and the man's rough voice.

It was actually a man in disguise... Neither of them was a good person, so she should just stay out of it.

Looking away, her consciousness swept over the people on the street.

Most people live their lives peacefully. The sounds of reading aloud in the academy, children laughing and playing with windmills on the street, women bargaining with vendors, and travelers enjoying their meals in restaurants—it all seems lively and peaceful.

After looking for a long time and finding nothing, she turned her attention to other people's homes.

In a mansion somewhere.

"Master Wang, why are you here?"

"Hehe! What are you talking about! Your husband is going on a long trip again, why didn't you tell me? I can come and protect you!"

"Hate it! I was just sending the servants away and preparing to write you a letter, asking you to come over at night! Who would have thought that you would actually climb over the wall in the broad daylight!" The woman's voice was so delicate that it made people feel numb all over.

The man who had just climbed over the wall chuckled, put his arm around the woman's waist, and walked into the room.

There was affection in their eyes, as if their feelings were higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.

"Do you want to take a shower first?" The man's hand slid up and down the woman's waist, and a lustful light flashed in his eyes.

The woman lowered her head, two blushes on her cheeks. "Of course I want it. I'll have the servants prepare it. I'll use your favorite flower petals, how about that?"

The man smiled evilly and hid in an empty room.

The woman walked to the gate, opened it a crack, and began to give orders in an orderly manner.

Not long after, the servant brought in a bathtub.

The man and the woman stood together again, looked at each other lovingly for a while, and then separated.

Lu Yunxi didn't want to look at such a private matter, and was about to look away when she suddenly noticed something was wrong.
