Chapter 71 The Thirteenth Act of the Dual Cultivation Technique (Update 1)…
After Nguyen Chao finished his breakfast, he felt that his mind had become much more active.
A flash of inspiration came to him, and he soon came up with a brilliant idea.
He told Chu Xinglan that he wanted to take a bath.
"...bathing?"
For a monk, keeping the body clean is a very simple matter. All he needs to do is to make a cleansing gesture, and no matter how dirty his body is, it will immediately become spotless.
Bathing, on the contrary, is much more complicated. Not only is the process troublesome, but it also wastes a lot of time for cultivation.
Among the new batch of disciples of Guiyuan Sect, Chu Xinglan is not only the most talented, but also the most stubborn one.
When his senior brothers and sisters went to the town to play, he was busy breaking through the realm. When his junior brothers and sisters went down the mountain to eat, he practiced sword in the back mountain. When his uncles and uncles went out to travel, he stayed in the sword tomb for 9981 days, breaking through countless sword formations, and finally pulled out the broken shadow under the witness of the sword spirit.
He had long since left the world, and almost all of his time was occupied by spiritual practice. When he occasionally had some free time, he would go to the nearby town to see what styles of dresses and patterns of jewelry were popular, and then buy them all, waiting to give them to the Nguyen Dynasty.
So Chu Xinglan was stunned for a long time before he realized the meaning of the word "bath".
He thought that Ruan Chao's spiritual veins were damaged and he couldn't cast a cleaning spell, so he resorted to bathing as the next best option.
He grasped Ruan Chao's wrist and injected his spiritual power into it... Although it was a little sluggish, it was still smooth.
"I'm fine, not injured, I just want to take a bath." Ruan Chao pulled back his arm and pursed his lips. "When I was at home, I took a bath every day. I needed water of the right temperature and put a lot of beautiful flower petals in it so that it would smell good."
Nguyen Dynasty did not lie in the first half.
He does take a shower every day.
The feeling of hot water soaking through the body is very comfortable and can also effectively relieve physical fatigue, which cannot be replaced by cleansing magic.
However, the statement about the petals at the back is a complete exaggeration.
Chu Xinglan: “Now?”
He looked around. "Here?"
Ruan Chao nodded.
Chu Xinglan would naturally meet all of Ruan Chao's requirements.
He went to find the waiter and asked for a few buckets of hot water. After a pause, he lowered his voice and asked in a low voice...if there were any flower petals.
The lobby was very noisy, and the waiter didn't hear clearly, "What?"
The boy's ears turned red: "... petals, if there are none, then forget it." He thought of other ways.
"Sir, what you said is true. As long as you have enough money, you can buy anything."
The waiter wiped his hands with the towel on his shoulder and said, "Just give it to me."
In just a cup of tea, everything Nguyen Chao wanted was ready.
He stared at the bright petals floating in the bathtub and felt regretful for a moment.
He didn't expect that Chu Xinglan would actually come to him just because he mentioned it casually.
Now I have no choice but to accept it.
The heat continued to rise, quickly blurring the vision.
Ruan Chao leaned over, touched the water and tested the temperature.
Fortunately, it’s not too hot.
A soft petal with water droplets on it brushed against the back of his hand.
The bright red petals and the delicate white skin form a strong color contrast.
The atmosphere suddenly became charming.
Ruan Chao was clearly dressed neatly, without exposing any extra skin, but Chu Xinglan suddenly blushed for some reason. She didn't even dare to look at him any more.
He took a step back with the sword in his arms and accidentally bumped into the door, making a loud noise.
"I...I'll wait for you outside the door." He said in a serious tone.
"Wait a moment."
Chu Xinglan paused slightly, and now even his ears turned completely red.
Don’t you need to take a bath every morning?
Suddenly calling him at this time...what do you want to do?
You don't want to take a shower with him.
Despicable, shameless, dirty, obscene... How could he have such thoughts.
If the occasion wasn't wrong, Chu Xinglan would have wanted to slap himself to wake himself up.
Just when he was feeling uneasy, the girl's gentle voice sounded behind him.
"You need to stay further away," he said. "If you're just outside the door, you'll definitely hear the noise."
Chu Xinglan: "...I will block my hearing."
"...That won't work either." Ruan Chao frowned, worrying with good reason, "What if you secretly take it off without telling me?"
"I can't run out and supervise you."
"We are just an engaged couple and have not officially gotten married yet. We must remember the differences between men and women and must not do anything that is not in line with etiquette."
Ruan Chao spoke righteously, as if he had completely forgotten how he had clung to Chu Xinglan before, letting her carry him on her back and hug her.
Chu Xinglan just muttered a few words of etiquette, but he still got angry and wanted to be coaxed.
Very coquettish.
Chu Xinglan raised three fingers: "I can swear that I will not eavesdrop, otherwise I will..."
Ruan Chao covered his mouth in time, preventing him from saying the rest.
He said word by word, "Even swearing won't do."
Chu Xinglan: “…”
In the end, Chu Xinglan compromised.
He left Nguyen's room and went downstairs to the lobby.
Before leaving, Chu Xinglan asked Ruan Chao when he could come back.
Ruan Chao thought for a moment and replied, "Come back to me in an hour."
"...an hour?" The boy's expression seemed to show signs of cracking again. "Does a bath take that long?"
"Why not?" Ruan Chao said confidently, "I'm a girl, so I have to wash myself carefully. Besides, I haven't taken a shower for several days, so it's not too much to wash myself four, five, six, or seven times."
Chu Xinglan lowered his eyelashes, tightened his fingers holding the hilt of the sword slightly, and said "OK" reluctantly.
…
Finally, I got rid of the people and got an hour of private space.
It was enough for him to study the technique carefully.
Ruan Chao breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace.
The senior in the system was also very trustworthy and passed the skills to him.
It is a small jade slip.
As long as you probe your consciousness into it, you can see what is recorded inside.
Perhaps it was because the opportunity to change his fate was right in front of him. As long as he took one more step forward, he could overturn the fate of the furnace.
Ruan Chao suddenly felt some difficulty breathing.
He could hear his own heartbeat, his blood rushing up, he felt dizzy, and even his fingers holding the jade slip were shaking unconsciously.
He calmed himself down.
Take a deep breath.
Carefully probed in a thread of consciousness.
…
The contents inside shocked him.
His face turned red and then white, and then white and then red, like an overturned color palette.
Not knowing what outrageous thing he saw, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and a burst of heat came out, making his whole face completely red.
The system could not see the contents of the jade slip, it could only see Ruan Chao's changing expression.
It asked hesitantly: [What's wrong? Is there something wrong?]
This is a unique secret manual that it bought at a high price in the system mall.
Even in the entire cultivation world, it is unique and one-of-a-kind!
It's impossible that I bought a counterfeit or inferior product.
The Nguyen Dynasty devoted some thought to responding to it.
[System Master, are you sure you didn't get the wrong technique? ]
The system said firmly: [Of course not! ]
Ruan Chao's eyes wandered, and he blushed and asked again: [Then... do you have any other secret books that are suitable for me to learn? ]
The system was somewhat embarrassed: [No more, this is the only one left. ]
It searched the mall for a long time and only found this one that was suitable for furnace cultivation.
The system asked again: [What happened? ]
Ruan Chao stumbled and hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping himself: […The method says that I should go find a pure yang body.]
System: [Pure Yang Body? Don’t you have a ready-made Pure Yang Body next to you?]
Ruan fluttered his eyelashes again: […Are you talking about Chu Xinglan? ]
The system nodded: [That's him. You should have seen his innate spiritual fire. Only a pure yang body can give birth to innate spiritual fire.]
Ruan Chao was stunned.
I didn't expect Chu Xinglan to look so cold, but when I got a little closer, I could seem to feel the coldness emanating from him. He actually has a pure yang body.
Ruan Chao slapped his face, trying to calm himself down.
The system asked curiously: [What then? Why do you need to find a pure Yang body? ]
Nguyen Dynasty: […………]
He opened his lips, seeming to be a little embarrassed.
After a while, he closed his eyes and said, "Let me...let me practice cultivation with him."
Double cultivation? What is double cultivation?
In order to make himself appear more knowledgeable, the system secretly searched the meaning of dual cultivation.
Then, it burned the CPU.
After Ruan Chao finished speaking, the heat on his face gradually subsided, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden.
He calmed down and continued: [However, dual cultivation is the last step of the practice. In the early stage, you only need to have some close contact with men with pure yang bodies.]
For example, holding hands, hugging, kissing, exchanging □□……
The more intimate the behavior, the faster his cultivation will be. If he can... get it right in one step, his cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.
No longer need to be constrained by furnace qualifications.
System: [What do you think, Chao Chao? ]
What do you think?
Of course, Nguyen Dynasty did not want to give up such a good opportunity for self-cultivation.
If possible, he didn't want to be a dodder who could only rely on others for protection. No matter what happened, he would just cry for help. When being bullied and hurt by others, he could only wait for Chu Xinglan to stand up for him.
The world of cultivation is full of dangers. Even if Chu Xinglan can protect him all the time, there will always be times when he can't take good care of him, just like the demon cultivator he encountered this time...
In this world, weakness is the original sin.
Only when you become strong can you have the confidence and gain the respect of others.
Nguyen Chao knew very well that if he missed this opportunity, he would spend the rest of his life in regret.
Therefore, he answered without hesitation: [Of course, I have to practice according to the method.]
Chu Xinglan is his fiancé.
The two of them had already entered into a marriage contract under the witness of Heaven.
So, whatever intimate things you do are allowed by the rules.
Isn't it just kissing and hugging?
It’s not like they haven’t hugged before.
Simple...very simple.
Nguyen Chao brainwashed himself, and the last bit of hesitation in his heart disappeared.
He took off his coat, wanting to take a good bath, but he paused when he unbuttoned his shirt.
【System Seniors...】
The system knew what he was worried about.
System: [Don't worry, I won't peek. ]
[I will now close off… close off my consciousness.]
When it comes to the host's privacy, the system will unilaterally cut off contact with the host, which is commonly known as being put in a small dark room.
The system was drawing circles in the small dark room, and thinking about the mission in this world, it felt extremely conflicted.
The tasks in this world are actually very simple.
Ruan Chao is the male protagonist's fiancée, and the two have feelings for each other since they were young. However, she doesn't like the male protagonist and wants to break up with him.
He acted like a devil in this relationship, was extremely spoiled and willful, and did everything he could to make trouble. In the end, he exhausted the last bit of friendship in the hero's heart, and the two separated.
The hero was hurt by love, and from then on he closed his heart to love, no longer indulging in the little love in the world, and devoted himself to pursuing the great road.
A hundred years later, he became the only cultivator to ascend to heaven in the past thousand years.
The mission is simple and clear.
But the plot went off track from the beginning.
Not only did the host accidentally lose his memory, he also thought that he was a native of the cultivation world. He also developed feelings for Chu Xinglan, recognized his identity as her fiancé, and now wanted to be intimate with him...
After that, would he still be willing to break up with him?
The system kept sighing and had no idea how to proceed with the mission in this world.
It has a circle on the left, a circle on the right, and another circle in the middle.
After an unknown amount of time, it was finally released from the small dark room.
