Chapter 197 Being Slapped in the Face
Hu Xiner held her forehead and thought, wow, this is a cocky king with a lack of moral sense!
"I'm not here to see you!" She punctured Yin Li's pride, "Someone gave me the genuine book last night."
Yin Li's face froze: "I don't believe it. Then who are you looking for here?"
"Master Yiqing." Hu Xiner didn't shy away from it.
Yin Li regained his half-smile and said, "There's no such person in the ghost market. It's useless to look for him. Why don't you just go and play with me!"
This time Hu Xiner was smart and didn't believe him.
Yin Li touched his nose and looked at the child beside him: "Is my reputation really that bad?"
The dog nodded desperately: "You are the biggest liar in the world!"
Yin Li was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Master Yiqing, Master Yiqing!" Hu Xiner walked straight in, shouting as she walked.
A straw mat on the ground suddenly moved, and a man sat up from inside, cursing, "Why are you howling in broad daylight? Yiqing, that old cow nose, is in there!"
Hu Xiner was shocked. The man turned out to be the stall owner who sold bones yesterday.
However, he also revealed Yiqing's whereabouts. Hu Xiner mustered up the courage to thank him, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Yin Li following her.
She rolled her eyes.
Yin Li was slapped in the face and touched his nose guiltily again.
Hu Xin'er teased, "Oh, I thought a 200-year-old man like you wouldn't be embarrassed!"
Yin Li remained silent. The two of them walked inside and saw Taoist Master Yiqing sitting on a high platform with his eyes closed in meditation.
Hu Xiner was about to go up, but she encountered the invisible barrier again.
She hammered the barrier twice, then felt along the barrier to make sure that all the roads leading to the Taoist temple were blocked.
But wasn't this barrier drawn by the magic brush? Could Jiang Yao be here too?
Hu Xin'er looked around but found no trace of Jiang Yao.
"Silly girl, what are you looking for?" Yin Li couldn't help laughing when he saw her looking so confused.
It's just a mockery.
"Nothing." Hu Xiner shook her head and was about to use all her strength to break through the barrier like last time, but Yin Li grabbed her wrist and stopped her.
"What are you doing?!" Hu Xiner pulled her hand back and wiped it on her clothes in disgust.
Yin Li, however, changed her usual frivolous demeanor and said seriously, "This barrier is condensed from spiritual energy. If you forcibly destroy it, Taoist Yiqing will suffer backlash!"
Ah, so mysterious?
Hu Xin'er was so shocked that she murmured to herself, "Could it be that I didn't travel through the ancient world, but the world of immortal cultivation?"
Holy shit, what business is she still in? She picked all the wrong skills!
If this is a world of cultivating immortals, you should jump off a cliff at the beginning, and then learn how to cultivate immortals from an old man in seclusion!
Yin Li asked curiously, "What are you mumbling about?"
"Nothing." Hu Xiner shook her head vigorously, forcing herself to calm down.
If, she meant if, Taoist Yiqing was really cultivating immortality, then why didn't he react at all when he broke through the barrier in the stone chamber last time?
But Hu Xin'er didn't want to reveal these things to Yin Li so easily, so she suppressed her doubts: "Then what should we do?"
Yin Li said without hesitation: "Since he has revealed himself, he is willing to see you. We will stay here and wait for the Taoist priest to finish his meditation."
Then he pushed Hu Xin'er down to sit on a rock, gazing at her with a rather strange look in his eyes: "You look dull and don't seem like someone with any affinity for immortality. How did you get to know Taoist Master Yiqing? Could it be that you were born with extraordinary bones?"
As he was about to touch the bones, the dog screamed beside him: "Ah! Quick, someone come, there's a pervert!"
He yelled, covering his face with his hands, fingers spread wide.
Yin Li knocked his head in annoyance: "You think too much, would I flirt with such a little girl?"
But Hu Xin'er tightened her clothes cautiously: "Don't love me, it will be fruitless."
Yin Li almost vomited blood. He had always been the one who used his narcissism to leave others speechless, but today he was severely hurt by Hu Xiner's distrustful look!
Hu Xiner was secretly happy. This was a way of giving someone a taste of his own medicine.
Facing the two men's contemptuous and defensive gazes, Yin Li looked towards the platform: "Come to think of it, I don't know who attacked the Taoist priest before, but he was seriously injured!"
Hu Xiner was very embarrassed. If she guessed correctly, this expert should be herself.
She changed the subject: "Yin Li, how did you know exactly which page of 'Wonderful Instruments' I wanted to read?"
Yin Li came over mysteriously and asked, "Want to know?"
"Yeah!" Hu Xin'er was also a little nervous because of him.
Yin Li smiled slightly, raised her fingers to ruffle her hair, her eyes gleaming with an obscure brilliance: "If you are willing to come here and accompany me for three months, I will tell you!"
Hu Xiner rolled her eyes, stood up and was about to leave.
Yin Li quickly grabbed her skirt and said, "Little girl, aren't you going to wait for Taoist Master Yiqing?"
"I won't wait anymore. You make me sick! I'll come next time." Hu Xiner said this, but actually she just wanted to find another place to wait.
"You're so young, why are you so stingy?" Yin Li heard this and clutched the hem of her clothes even tighter. "I'm so bored, can you talk to me?"
Hu Xin'er pointed at the dog and said, "Look, isn't that a person?"
Gouzi grinned and followed Hu Xiner happily.
Abandoned by both of them, Yin Li felt a surge of grief and indignation: "You two ungrateful, heartless fellows!"
Hu Xiner took Gou Zi's hand as if to show off: "I hope you can help us and stop grabbing my clothes!"
Yin Li shook his head: "No!"
"Then I'll take off my clothes!" Hu Xiner pretended to take off the outermost piece.
Yin Li was stunned. Why didn't this woman play by the rules?
When an ordinary woman sees his stunning handsomeness, shouldn't she automatically bow down before him?
It was a cool day today, so Hu Xiner was wearing a cross-collared top with only some light pink petals embroidered on the cuffs and collar, and a goose yellow jacket on the outside.
Taking off the jacket was just like taking off a coat; it didn't matter to her.
However, seeing Yin Li's shocked expression, she gave up the idea.
Otherwise, if Mu Qing wakes up and gets jealous, it would be too bad.
She asked Yin Li with a squinting look: "What's the benefit of me chatting with you?"
Yin Li said without hesitation: "From now on, you can read any of the books here!"
Hu Xin'er thought it was okay and sat down again. "Can I borrow them after I read them? How many books can I borrow at a time? Do I need an IOU?"
She patted the dog and said, "Go find a piece of paper for me and ask the Pavilion Master to write a receipt!"
Yin Li looked at her as if she were a monster: "How can you be so mercenary when you're just a painter?"
"Guess!" Hu Xin'er smiled cunningly, then asked, "By the way, what's wrong with your hair?"
