Chapter 242 Lotus Lantern



Sure enough, the most interesting thing for a master is still teasing his disciples.

This might be a rule.

Well, maybe only Wu Er has this bad habit.

In short, Wu Er laughed for a long time under Han Qingxiu's resentful gaze.

By the way, Wu Er's voice is really good; he didn't laugh too hard even after laughing for so long.

When Han Qingxiu saw her master's smile, although her body was dry, her heart felt as if it were soaking in water.

Sure enough, I think I should stay single from now on. Men are all the same!

Han Qingxiu thought to herself.

After a while, perhaps he really ran out of energy laughing, Wu Er stopped laughing.

"Ahem... I lost my composure. What happened just now was entirely to help you come to your senses, and I meant no harm."

Wu Er composed himself and said with a rather serious expression.

It seems he hasn't given up on salvaging his image as a master.

But I was laughing so hard just now, how can I salvage my image?

Are you suggesting we hit Han Qingxiu with a brick and make her lose her memory?

Fortunately, as a disciple, even after playing pranks on him many times, Han Qingxiu remained quite restrained... or so he seemed to think...

She clasped her hands and bowed, grinding her teeth as she squeezed out the words, "It is... Master's good intentions... I will never forget them!"

The last four words, "unforgettable," were pronounced heavily, accompanied by the constant grinding of teeth, exuding a murderous aura.

If translated, it might mean: Just wait, if I could beat you, I would have pushed you into the well long ago and made you swallow two hundred loquats whole!

Well, perhaps one day, Han Qingxiu will also cultivate to become an immortal, and then a master-abusing monster will appear...

However, that's how things are right now.

"Good to know."

Wu Ertian shamelessly accepted his apprentice's words, then put his hands behind his back, pretending to be a wise man.

This is because we're going back to that town later, that's why we're doing this.

In front of outsiders, Wu Er always had to act serious, so as to be worthy of his status.

In other words, if you're in that position, you have to put on airs.

But always putting on airs is actually quite tiring.

He was burdened with sorrow and hardship, which is why he sought amusement from his apprentices to relieve his worries and troubles.

This is the excuse Wu Er gave himself for teasing Han Qingxiu.

Under a hazy sky, the two passed through the courtyard complex and crossed the small bridge they had come from, returning to the town.

The town was no longer as deserted as it had been the first time I visited; all sorts of spirits were now roaming the streets.

I guess I was just shy the first time, but now that I know they're guests, I'm not scared anymore.

It has to be said, that's a really simple way of thinking.

Walking down the street, looking at the bizarre houses and the strange creatures that live there, it's truly a unique experience.

Unlike those famous mountains and rivers, you have to see quite a few things here before you get tired of it.

Once their identities were confirmed, the spirits along the way were very welcoming.

Whenever they encountered a spirit, they would greet Wu Er and Han Qingxiu.

A while after the two entered the town, they saw the scarecrow who had led the way again.

The scarecrow hopped up to the two men and excitedly asked, "Gentlemen, is there anything else I can help you with? Please come and ask me for your help!"

Hearing this, Han Qingxiu couldn't help but smile.

Please come and bother me!

The way these words were spoken in such a cheerful tone always had a strangely funny quality.

Wu Er also wanted to laugh, but he was an immortal, and he had to maintain his composure in front of outsiders, even spirits.

"There are some things I'd like to trouble you with to show me the way."

With his hands behind his back, Wu Er spoke to the scarecrow in a gentle voice.

"Really!" The scarecrow jumped up. "What is it? Tell me quickly! I love serving guests!"

Wu Er continued, "Is there anything of special significance? We've come all this way, we should leave something to remember us by, right?"

Upon hearing the request, the scarecrow immediately exclaimed excitedly, "I know, I know! Come with me!"

After saying this, he skipped and hopped ahead to lead the way.

I don't know if I understood what Wu Er said.

The master and apprentice looked at the scarecrow and followed it.

"Come with me, let's go see some good stuff!"

The scarecrow hopped and skipped along, leading the two to the edge of town.

A stream runs along the edge of the town; the water is so clear you can see right to the bottom.

In other places, this stream would be very beautiful, with the stars and moon reflected on its surface.

But there are no stars or moon in this place, so how could they be reflected?

Look at this stream, you can really only see water.

Upon reaching the stream, the scarecrow stopped and said, "This is it! This is it! Let's release the lotus lanterns. The last guest said that if you release a lotus lantern on the stream, a fairy will grant your wish!"

Faced with this, Wu Er could only smile.

It seems this scarecrow's thinking is too simplistic; he really didn't understand what Wu Er was saying.

However, since we've already come this far, and we genuinely want to release a lotus lantern, we're already here.

Releasing lotus lanterns here is actually a very interesting thing.

So Wu Er turned to Han Qingxiu and said, "Come on, let's release a lotus lantern and then make a wish. The immortals will grant your wish."

Han Qingxiu glanced at Wu Er, but didn't say anything, and her face didn't show any particular joy.

She was probably thinking: "Master is so childish, isn't this just something to coax a child?"
