Chapter 47 Help Me Wash (Three Updates) Master Sword Immortal, please pray for your own good fortune...
(Forty-seven)
Shen Changyi came to Ming Zhou Sect when Xie Du was fifteen years old.
At that time, Shen Changyi was not yet a sword immortal, but he had already become famous in the world of cultivation. No one knew where he came from, and the sword moves he created were unheard of and unseen. He was so powerful that the entire world of cultivation was saying that he was actually an immortal in the mortal world.
This speculation was not an exaggeration. Later, they all learned from Shangjun that Shen Changyi was indeed a true immortal who had descended to the mortal world.
When they met for the first time, the sect leader took him by the hand and went to greet him personally.
"I heard that you are the swordsman who killed the evil dragon?"
Chen Changyi stood under the peach tree, pinching a peach petal with his fingertips. He stood tall and straight, like a bamboo, but his demeanor was cold and indifferent, keeping people at a distance.
"Yes." He responded calmly.
Xie Du heard the Sect Master ask cautiously, "May I ask why you have come to the Ming Zhou Sect?"
Shen Changyi's answer was beyond their expectations.
"I need money to support my family."
The famous Shen Changyi actually has no money to support his family.
The sect leader very much welcomes him to live in Mingzhou Sect. Which sect would not want Shen Changyi to stay?
The sect leader promised that as long as Shen Changyi helped the sect to eliminate demons, he would give him a generous reward, so he stayed.
If we were to ask why, supporting a family is probably one of them.
Later, Xie Du emerged and became a disciple of Shen Changyi.
Shen Changyi had originally not intended to accept a disciple, but he ultimately accepted Xie Du. It was said that it was because someone had told him that he needed to understand the ways of the world when traveling abroad.
The clan leader gave him a job to support his family, so for the sake of social relations, he accepted Xie Du.
No one knows who taught Shen Changyi that sentence, but Xie Du got lucky because of it, and his life was completely changed. He was already talented, and under Shen Changyi's guidance, he made rapid progress. Everyone said that he might be the next Shen Changyi in the future.
Xie Du himself felt that it was unlikely. No one could become Shen Changyi. Even among the gods in the heaven, that person was probably one of the strongest ones.
After becoming the Sword Immortal's personal disciple, Xie Du gradually began to understand him and knew why he came to the sect to eliminate demons. It was not only to support his family, but also for a more important reason - he was looking for a demon cultivator.
However, Xie Du was not entirely clear about what the evil cultivator would do after finding him.
Shen Changyi didn't tell anyone.
Xie Du withdrew his thoughts and sat on pins and needles for a while under Li Shanglu's piercing gaze. He suddenly stood up and said, "I don't know about this matter. I still have a mission to complete. I will take my leave first."
He is very tight-lipped.
Li Shanglu snorted lightly and said calmly, "Don't know? Forget it, I'll go ask the Sect Master."
Hearing this, Xie Du paused for a moment, turned his head and looked at Li Shanglu, sighing softly,
"Master's Wife, if Master doesn't even want to tell you something, then there's no way anyone else in the world would know it."
She is the closest and most important person to Shen Changyi in this world.
This is something that everyone knows, but Mr. Li Shanglu just doesn't believe it.
Hearing his words, Li Shanglu's heart trembled slightly. She turned her face away and gritted her teeth secretly, "If I could ask it, why would I need to ask you?"
Stupid master, useless disciple.
After Xie Du left, she cursed fiercely for a long time, and finally said in a depressed tone, "What should I do?"
Elder Teng watched her sulk with amusement and said with a smile, "If he doesn't want to talk about it, then he shouldn't ask. Why do you really have to know?"
Li Shanglu insisted on knowing.
She had no secrets from Shen Changyi, so Shen Changyi certainly couldn't have any secrets from her.
"Oh, right," Elder Teng coughed lightly and said softly, "Shang Lu, I forgot to tell Master Jianxian that the effect of the medicine I gave him has worn off. Can you tell him for me?"
Li Shanglu suddenly raised his eyes, instantly understanding what he meant. He smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Elder."
"I didn't warn you about anything, so don't say anything." Elder Teng said guiltily, "You little girl, be careful and don't bully the Sword Immortal..."
Before he could finish, Li Shanglu rushed out impatiently.
Hey, Master Sword Immortal, you’d better pray for good luck.

Shutong Pavilion.
When Shen Changyifang came back from the foot of the mountain, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the untouched dishes on the table.
He took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them. The sunlight shone on him through the small window, casting a soft and clear glow on him. His bony hands were immersed in the clear water, and the water droplets sparkled golden, covering the backs of his white and slender fingers, which was very beautiful.
Li Shanglu was standing by the door watching him wash dishes.
Apart from his face, Li Shanglu's favorite part of his body is his hands.
Beautiful and powerful.
Chen Changyi raised his eyes with a hint of feeling, and called her softly in a flattering voice, "Shanglu..."
Li Shanglu ignored him as if he were air, walked past him into the kitchen, took out a few fragrant pears and left.
Seeing that she still refused to pay attention to him, Shen Changyi lowered his eyelashes, withdrew his eyes dejectedly, and carefully washed the dishes in his palms.
He came out of the kitchen and walked carefully to the table. His hands were still wet, and he wiped them on the cloth around his waist a little uncomfortably.
"I'll help you peel it."
After saying that, Shen Changyi was about to take the pear and knife from her hands.
Li Shanglu raised his hand to avoid it, still not saying a word, and continued to peel the pear.
Seeing her expression as if she didn't see him at all, Shen Changyi pursed his lips and sat beside her.
Suddenly, little Persimmon in the crib woke up and started crying.
Shen Changyi finally found a job to do. He was about to get up immediately, but Li Shanglu got there first and took the child away.
"Don't cry, Persimmon. Mother is here."
This was originally his job.
Shen Changyi stayed where he was and tried to go forward to help her coax the child, but was avoided by Li Shanglu again.
Helplessly, he turned his gaze to Little Orange.
If Little Orange also woke up and cried, Shang Lu wouldn't be able to comfort both of them by himself.
I don’t know if Little Orange heard his thoughts or was woken up by her brother, but she actually woke up and cried softly.
Shen Changyi quickly seized the opportunity and was about to pick up Xiaojuzi, but the next moment, Li Shanglu pushed him away and used his free hand to gently shake the crib.
Little Orange was easy to coax, and he slowly fell asleep while being gently rocked.
Shen Changyi hesitated to speak, and looked at Li Shanglu with a depressed look.
Why, don't let him do it.
However, the other person didn't even look at him. After coaxing the child, he went back to leisurely peel and eat the pear.
It was not until noon that Li Shanglu went out, and Shen Changyi finally found a chance to start cooking.
At least Shanglu will still eat the food he cooks.
Not long after, Li Shanglu came back.
I came back with four dishes and a soup from Tianweiju.
Chen Changyi watched her push aside the meal he had prepared and replace it with the four dishes and a soup she had bought, his nails digging into his palms.
——It’s over.
This family doesn't need him anymore.
He couldn't help but said, "Shanglu, try the crab roe noodle soup I made today. It's delicious..."
Li Shanglu finished the food he brought back as if he hadn't heard anything, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
"Shanglu," Shen Changyi rushed into the kitchen, held her hand, and looked at her pleadingly, "Let me do it."
Li Shanglu didn't even look at him, shook off his hand, washed the dishes, lifted the kitchen curtain, turned around and walked out.
Chen Changyi looked at her back helplessly, following her closely like Xiao Huang. "Shanglu, can I peel a pear for you?"
"Shanglu, do you want to read a book?"
"Shanglu..."
She ignored him completely.
Shen Changyi sat dejectedly at the table, watching her feed the child.
He secretly thought that if he were a woman, Shang Lu would have to come and let him feed the child.
But who knows, Shang Lu might even find a wet nurse in order to avoid him.
He lay on the table, staring at her back gloomily.
After making Shanglu angry, everything returned to normal.
It's obviously not easy to become a husband and a father.
But the rights to be a husband and a father were given to him by Shang Lu. If she didn't want to give it to him, she could take it back at any time, like now.
I probably won't be able to sleep next to her at night.
In the evening, Shen Changyi watched the sunset disappear into the treetops, put away the bench and returned to the room.
You cannot practice cultivation, as practicing may bring about the thunder tribulation of ascension.
Whenever there is no work to do, Shanglu will appear as quickly as possible before he sets out to work.
There was no need to exorcise demons, and no one paid any attention to him, so he just sat there in a daze for the whole afternoon.
Fortunately, he has spent his childhood in bed and is very good at daydreaming.
As if Shen Changyi had guessed that Li Shanglu would not let him get into bed, he moved his own bedding and spread it on the ground near the crib.
In this way, if the child cries at night and Shanglu doesn't want to get up, he can take care of the child.
After Li Shanglu finished washing up, he happened to pass by him and his eyes fell on him.
Shen Changyi's whole body tensed up. He spread the quilt helplessly and whispered, "Shanglu, I'll take care of Persimmon and Orange tonight."
Hearing this, Li Shanglu quickly retracted his gaze, as if he had just seen him accidentally.
She brought the bathtub, filled it with hot water, and took off her clothes as if no one was around.
The cloak was taken off, and then the outer garment.
Shen Changyi stared at her in a daze until Li Shanglu took off his coat, leaving only a lotus pink dress.
He instantly realized that Li Shanglu was actually going to take a bath in front of him, and hurriedly looked away.
Why, in front of him?
No, could it be that Shang Lu was supposed to bathe here, but he stayed where he shouldn't be?
Combined with the look Li Shanglu had just given him, Shen Changyi became even more convinced that this was the case.
He quickly stood up and went outside, but before he had taken two steps, he heard a cold voice behind him.
"stop."
As if he was fixed in place by a spell, Shen Changyi's body stopped and he slowly turned around, his eyes fixed on the tip of his boots.
"Bring me my usual bath beans."
It turned out that I was looking for him for help.
Yes, it’s inconvenient to take things while taking a bath. I can’t do without it.
Shen Changyi regained the feeling of being needed and felt much better.
He immediately got some bath beans for Li Shanglu, lowered his head as if not looking at them, and handed them to him carefully.
Li Shanglu took the bath beans from his palm, and his fingers dipped in warm water slid across his palm as if inadvertently. Shen Changyi froze as if he had been electrocuted.
She held the bath bean, but did not rush to take it from his hand.
The moist fingers rubbed the bath beans to create some ambiguous foam, and the air was filled with the rich and charming fragrance of orchids.
That's the smell of Phytolacca.
Shen Changyi couldn't take his eyes off her hand, and his breathing gradually stopped.
Li Shanglu's voice came to my ears. His tone was very soft and slow, but his intention was obvious.
"Shuhe, can you help me wash?"
She knew that Shen Changyi preferred to hear her call him by this name, because it was given by Li Hanye. Whenever he called him Shuhe, he would feel that he had integrated into the Li family and become a member of Li Shanglu's family.
As expected.
Shen Changyi stared at her in a daze. It took him a long while to realize what she was saying. A surge of heat suddenly rushed to his head. He suddenly covered his nose and touched it in confusion.
He... was bleeding.
