Chapter 926 Going to Buy Two Jars of Wine
Old age.
In front of Master Han, Song Chunxue knew how to choose her words carefully.
Upon hearing these three words, Master Zhang and Lord Zhao silently took a step back.
Even the five young disciples who were standing downstairs, about to rush upstairs, silently stopped and waited to see what would happen.
Master Han was the oldest among them, and also the one who hated the word "old" the most.
Master Han glanced sideways at Song Chunxue, his expression carrying a sense of oppression that left no one able to hide and could see into their very soul.
Song Chunxue also silently took a step back.
Compared to Master Han, she was far too young to be considered old.
She knew that Master Han had seen through her little scheme and wanted to use him to teach these arrogant juniors a lesson.
It all depends on whether Master Han is willing to be fooled.
However, someone has definitely been offended.
She caught a glimpse of the gazes her two senior brothers cast at her, their expressions seemingly saying: Junior Brother Song, you're getting bolder and bolder.
"Isn't it a fact that I'm old? Can't I even say that because I'm old?"
The bearded man pointed angrily at Song Chunxue and said, "You knocked out one of my teeth just because I said a few words to you? You old hag, you really don't know your place. Just you wait, my master will definitely smash all your teeth and turn you into a toothless old woman!"
Just as she was worried that the timing wasn't right, upon hearing this, Song Chunxue laughed, "Then you really have guts."
If it weren't so inappropriate, she would have applauded it.
"Bang!"
"Crack!"
Suddenly, a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere and blasted the group of people away. The carved pine railings along the corridor also snapped and shattered in an instant.
Song Chunxue quickly smelled the flying wood chips, which emitted a fresh pine scent.
Before the person lying on the ground could even get angry, the person above spoke contemptuously, "Give them a lesson. If they haven't learned how to behave, they should stop making a fool of themselves."
They were furious and about to stand up and yell at each other, but then a sentence made them cover their heads and obediently run out of the inn with their tails between their legs.
"It's been over a hundred years, and it seems that Tingfeng still doesn't understand the principle that cultivating oneself begins with cultivating the mind. If it were me, I would have gone out and found a tree to smash my head against if I had still come to such a big event and made a fool of myself."
Master Han flicked his sleeves and said, "You're misleading people and have no shame."
Changfeng, Changyun, and the other four relentlessly kicked and shoved from behind.
The group disappeared quickly, not daring to retaliate at all.
Tingfeng was their grandmaster, yet he was worthless in their eyes.
They're so blind! How could they have offended someone like that?
The shopkeeper hid behind the counter, too scared to even breathe.
Then, Master Han looked at Song Chunxue and said, "What are you doing standing there? Go and pay them the money. You have to ask an old senior like me to handle this kind of thing. You're useless and all you have left is your age."
"..." Song Chunxue pointed to herself, wanting to explain something, but when she met Master Han's indescribable eyes, she silently swallowed her words and changed her words, "Thank you for your teachings, Master Han."
"Pfft~"
Someone downstairs couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Song Chunxue glared at them, and the five disciples shoved each other as they ran out the door.
Master Zhang walked towards the stairwell, saying, "I'll go, you go and rest."
"I'll do it. I've embarrassed everyone." Song Chunxue secretly encouraged herself, "Next time something like this happens, I'll just beat him to death."
After paying the shopkeeper some money, Song Chunxue followed behind the Taoist priest, asking, "Where are you going, Senior Brother?"
She glanced back at Master Han and her senior brother, who were still on the second floor. "Where are they? Are they free this afternoon?"
"This afternoon is fine as you like. Tomorrow they're taking us somewhere, and the day after that we'll have a discussion and tea."
Song Chunxue felt a sense of ignorance and helplessness, like a country girl coming to the city. "Then I'll follow my senior brother to broaden my horizons. This is my first time here, and I don't know anything."
"Don't panic, just watch. You don't need to do anything. The disciples aren't completely clueless, but they're having a lot of fun. You can join in too, don't hold back."
Song Chunxue didn't believe him at all. "Then where you go, I'll just follow you, won't I?"
I wonder if my senior brother has ever been here before, or if he has any old acquaintances here.
Surprisingly, he actually came here.
After several twists and turns, we arrived at a courtyard.
A person who values relationships and loyalty will find old friends everywhere.
Song Chunxue accompanied her senior brother to a dilapidated but clean courtyard, where people seemed to be drinking soup and sighing.
They didn't say anything, but left a bag of rice and a money bag at the door.
Afterwards, she accompanied her senior brother on a leisurely stroll through the streets, enjoying the vibrant spring atmosphere.
"Don't look at me with such expectant eyes. I have nothing else to do and I'm planning to take a nap on the boat. You can wander around."
Song Chunxue glanced at the narrow boat; it must be very comfortable to sleep inside.
She boarded another boat. "I'll take a nap too, and try this place out first. I just saw a familiar figure flying by; those two must have gone to do something important."
Master Zhang nodded, "It feels great to have someone hold up the sky even if it falls. Let's steal this half-day of leisure."
Seeing her senior brother fall asleep, Song Chunxue also sat down on the small boat, looked up at the sky, watched the eldest brother on the flower boat wearing a bamboo straw hat, and listened to the various sounds from near and far, and had a kind of illusion of peaceful times.
Here, she seemed oblivious to the turmoil of the world and the suffering of the people.
It turns out that in this world, in this life, only a portion of people are having a hard time.
However, since she was already there, she decided to steal a moment of this warm and cozy time to sleep.
She took out a handkerchief and covered her face, feeling the small boat rocking gently as it drifted deeper into the water, and unknowingly fell asleep.
As if someone was beside her, she relaxed completely, without a trace of wariness, and truly let herself fall into a deep sleep.
Gradually, she felt as if she were lying in soft cotton, her whole body as light as a feather.
It felt so good that she didn't want to wake up.
"Song Chunxue, Song Chunxue! Wake up!"
"Master, Master, don't scare me! Wake up, Master!"
Song Chunxue opened her eyes in a daze and found herself with a rope tied around her waist, floating in mid-air.
"Bang!"
The moment she came to her senses, she fell back into the boat.
Changfeng and Zhang Daoren were looking at Song Chunxue with serious expressions.
“Last time Li Dazui said that you would float up when you sleep, I didn’t believe it, but now that I’ve seen it with my own eyes, I have to believe it.” Master Zhang squatted down and pressed his hand on her wrist to check her pulse. “Changfeng, don’t cry. Your master is fine. She’s cultivating in her dream. It’s a good thing.”
"Um?"
"Really?" Changfeng didn't believe it. "I just touched Master and he was almost out of breath. Uncle-Master, you're not lying to me."
Master Zhang patted him on the shoulder, "It's alright, go buy two jugs of wine, the stronger the better."
After sending the man away, Song Chunxue looked at him and said, "Senior brother, tell me the truth. Is my situation not so good?"
"It's hard to say. We'll have to ask Master Han when he arrives. But this just proves that it was right to find you such a great master. If you follow him in your cultivation, you'll soon be able to surpass me."
Song Chunxue's heart skipped a beat.
