Chapter 1008 My Sense of Shame
Thinking of this, he looked at Han Qingfeng again.
That old snake is getting more and more unreliable. Why should he be so kind as to interfere in other people's affairs?
My junior brother already has five children, let alone her, who is already this age. It's impossible for her to willingly have a child for Xie Zheng.
Spring has arrived, and this old snake has definitely gone mad; how could it be so erratic?
"Zhao Jin".
Suddenly, Han Qingfeng's seemingly gentle and warm voice came from beside them, but his eyes made people feel uneasy.
"I've always forgotten to tell you that you dedicated most of your cultivation to me. Sometimes, I know exactly what you're thinking."
As he spoke, Master Han casually flicked non-existent dust off his sleeves.
"Eat quickly, don't waste food," Master Han tapped the table and slowly scanned everyone. "This is the first lesson I'm teaching you all, entrusted by my senior brother."
Master Zhang didn't say a word the whole time. By the time everyone noticed, he had already finished eating and put down his chopsticks.
“I almost died before, and I suffered heavy losses. My martial uncle’s tonics are very suitable for me.” With that, he stood up and said, “I’m going to find a place to meditate and refine them.”
Master Han nodded, “That’s right, Zhang Chengxuan is still to my liking. No wonder your master planned and maneuvered to take him as a disciple.”
The others dared not speak out in anger and obediently ate their food.
Before long, everyone got up, burping, to clean up. After washing the dishes, everyone left the yard.
"It's so hot! This meat is so nutritious, I'm getting a nosebleed." Tu Dan'er touched his nose and quickly took out a handkerchief.
"My nose is bleeding too. Let's go find a shady spot on the mountain to meditate, otherwise it'll be a waste."
Song Chunxue looked at Xie Zheng, "Are you also feeling unwell? Why don't I feel anything?"
"Because you are a Kun (female) being associated with Yin, supplementing Yang will not do you any harm..."
Before she could finish speaking, Song Chunxue also started bleeding from her nose.
Xie Zheng chuckled helplessly, "Let's go, let's each find a place to meditate. The courtyard is too small, it might not be appropriate."
"oh."
At first, Song Chunxue thought it was inappropriate for the two of them to be alone in a room, but when she had been meditating for half an hour and still couldn't suppress the discomfort, and even involuntarily groaned, she realized why it was inappropriate.
She stood up and went to another cave, where Xie Zheng was sitting cross-legged, his clothes soaked with sweat.
"Hey, stop holding back, let's go somewhere."
Xie Zheng slowly opened his eyes, his emotions almost overflowing.
He swallowed hard, trying to appear calm, and said, "No need. I didn't eat much. It will all be metabolized and absorbed eventually. Don't worry."
Song Chunxue crossed her arms and asked, "Shall I leave?"
Xie Zheng remained silent.
"He's really gone."
He then looked up at her, his clenched fists betraying his pain.
“This is a test, and Master Han will see through it.” Xie Zheng said helplessly, “His true nature is that of a snake, but he has suppressed it over the years and is a Taoist priest who is pure and desireless. He doesn’t have much of a human sense of shame and thinks that since you, his junior disciple, have a Taoist partner, everything you do is perfectly natural.”
His voice was low and hoarse, and his breathing was rapid.
“But we’re all human. If we think too much, we still have our pride. Master Han has the ability to see through things. I don’t want to embarrass you.” Xie Zheng gritted his teeth. “Give me another incense stick’s time, and I’ll be able to process it.”
Song Chunxue nodded, "That makes sense. I'll go back and continue meditating."
Compared to Xie Zheng, she felt slightly uncomfortable.
Discard all distracting thoughts and meditate for an hour; you will feel completely refreshed.
But when she returned to the cave entrance, she discovered that Xie Zheng had set up a barrier.
When did he learn it?
She hasn't learned it yet; she must ask for help next time.
Just as she was about to stand guard, Master Han appeared.
“I knew it. People always get held back by themselves,” he said, handing a book to Song Chunxue. “All my painstaking planning was for nothing. He actually thought I was testing him. How incredibly foolish.”
"Dual cultivation technique?" Song Chunxue was astonished. "Is it the dual cultivation I was thinking of?"
Master Han scoffed, "People are just hypocritical. You can see for yourself."
His tone was serious.
"As an elder, I'm willing to risk everything to do something that's beneath my dignity, but you two are really something else. Your stupidity is just both laughable and pathetic."
"Xie Zheng's situation in the capital is precarious. He will be sent to the military camp, and with his family's lives threatened, he will have no choice but to go. The best way for him to protect himself is to make rapid progress in his cultivation. This is the best solution at present."
"Furthermore, news of our presence here will spread, and some idle, overly busy people will surely come to investigate why we've lingered in this remote and impoverished place. The soil under that house has been disturbed; the earthworms will definitely know that."
"If I hadn't thought it over carefully, would I have done something so damaging to my reputation?"
Master Han was so angry that he raised his hand and broke the barrier. "You two are really a perfect match. I'm so angry. It's a win-win situation, but you keep making excuses and calling it 'strong willpower.' It's really a pain in the ass."
Song Chunxue lowered her head and obediently accepted the scolding.
He wasn't satisfied with his rant, saying, "That's why I don't like taking on apprentices. Kind and sensible ones are too stupid and don't know how to be flexible. The quick-witted ones love to cause trouble and I have to clean up their messes every day. They're too clever for their own good and they even ruin my future as their master. It's enough to drive me crazy."
"Hurry up and go inside. Are you waiting for him to get sick from being cooped up?"
Song Chunxue said "Oh," and then, "What about the other senior brothers and disciples..."
"You still have the mind to care about them?" Master Han took a deep breath, almost losing his temper. "I know what I'm doing, I don't need you to worry about me!"
The next moment, Song Chunxue was hit solidly by a flying palm and slammed into the wall inside the cave, her back almost shattered.
"Cough cough cough..."
Hearing the commotion, Xie Zheng ran over and reached out his arm to help her up, but suddenly pulled it back.
"Xie Zheng." Song Chunxue grabbed his wrist and pressed it against her face, then stood up and leaned close to him. "We both misunderstood. He just wanted to find the fastest way for you to break through, even if it seemed unreasonable."
His hands were scalded, like freshly boiled potatoes, and trembled slightly. His voice was low and hoarse. "What do you mean?"
Song Chunxue didn't say anything, but wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Um……"
Suddenly, he responded to her in a manner that could be described as rude.
“Ah Xue…”
"Yes, that's fine, otherwise you just can't do it."
She quickly answered any questions he might ask.
"Sizzle~"
The next moment, she felt a chill run through her body.
"Wait a minute..." Suddenly a bed appeared out of nowhere, and she was thrown onto it roughly.
"You go first..."
"Xie Zheng, you..."
His movements were swift and decisive, like a starving wolf suddenly spotting its prey and devouring it greedily.
Song Chunxue was caught off guard and became a meal.
She had never seen Xie Zheng like this before, so assertive yet considerate of her feelings.
But soon, he will descend into a frenzy of plunder.
She had never called him that in both of his lifetimes combined... It was beyond words.
But I haven't even read the dual cultivation method yet!
"I'll see tomorrow."
