Chapter 24
Yun Qingzi felt the abundant energy between her flesh and blood, and was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Especially after the body eliminates impurities, gray dirt is continuously expelled from the skin.
His carefully chosen clothes were covered by ash and stench, and Master Yun's face, which had just turned a shade lighter, darkened.
Especially when you move your wrist, the sticky feeling mixed with the stench is very noticeable.
Master Yun's body stiffened even more.
Fortunately, he wasn't too thick-skinned and managed to stay put.
To avoid discouraging her junior brother, Jin Moli didn't dodge. Instead, she held her breath and comforted him, "Junior brother, this is... the expulsion of impurities. Don't... be disgusted. We've all been through this."
Instead of being comforted by his senior sister, Master Yun's expression turned even uglier.
Lingxi: "Disciple, you should go back now."
"This disciple will take his leave now."
After saying that, Yun Qingzi quickly walked out.
Fortunately, it was getting late, and everyone in the village had gone home.
Otherwise, if Master Yun were to cross the entire village, he would probably die.
Jin Moli covered her mouth: "Hehe~"
"Ahem~ Don't make fun of your junior brother."
...
May 13th
"Chirp chirp~"
Lingxi carried Xiaohuang on her shoulder and led her two disciples, one old and one young, down the mountain.
Enhanced senses, increased strength.
Neither of them could yet control the force well.
So, Lingxi brought them to West Mountain, where there were few people and she and Yun Qingzi could do whatever they wanted.
Jin Moli officially entered the early stage of Qi Refining yesterday. However, her control over her abilities was unstable, and she accidentally broke and collapsed a lot of things. As a result, Lingxi dragged her along to come with Yun Qingzi.
Jin Moli accidentally stepped on it, and a solid pebble the size of a thumb instantly turned into lime. The mountain wind blew, carrying the lime away in the blink of an eye, and it disappeared without a trace.
Jin Moli met Ling Xi's gaze, gave an awkward smile, and quickly reduced her strength, gently moving forward before continuing to walk forward after she was safe.
As she walked, she blinked her big, round eyes and asked Lingxi, who was walking ahead of her, with curiosity, "Master... how many days... did it take you... to get used to it?"
Yun Qingzi withdrew her strength and walked out quietly. By the time she reached the halfway point of the mountain, she was walking with a proper gait, indistinguishable from her usual self.
When Jin Moli asked the question, he also quietly pricked up his ears to listen.
Seeing that they were all almost ready, Lingxi walked familiarly toward the pool.
There was no point in hiding anything when asked the question. Lingxi raised her hand and held up one finger, looking intrigued: "Guess?"
Jin Moli: "January... no... no, it must be... one day."
Lingxi gently shook her finger.
This indicates that it is incorrect.
"One hour."
Jin Moli opened her eyes wide: "Master, you...you are so amazing."
Yun Qingzi, who had been silent to the side, walked forward. He wasn't surprised, after all, he knew that spiritual energy was scarce now, so how could he still increase his cultivation so quickly?
His master was no ordinary person.
Yun Qingzi: "Master, are we going to the pool?"
Lingxi nodded, "I'll go to S City tomorrow, and I'll have some time to gather some spiritual energy for the little ones."
"Chirp chirp~"
Little Yellow, who had slept soundly on Lingxi's shoulder, spread its wings and chirped twice.
It was as if they were catering to Lingxi.
Yun Qingzi glanced at the exceptionally lively yellow-bellied tit, pondered for a moment, and said to Lingxi, "Master, shall we take over the West Mountain?"
Lingxi seemed thoughtful after hearing this: "Contracting? I had forgotten about that. I'll go and get it done when I get back in a few days, and I'll also contract some land to grow some fruits and vegetables."
Jin Moli asked curiously, "Master, where...are you going?"
"Yes, I'm going to S City for a few days tomorrow."
Yun Qingzi: "Master, I am willing to go to City S with you."
Jin Moli immediately added, "I...I'll go too."
Lingxi pondered that Jin Moli and Yun Qingzi had just begun their cultivation, so there was no need to rush.
He immediately decided, "Okay, let's go together."
"Qingzi, Moli, send over your ID numbers, your teacher is here to buy tickets."
Yun Qingzi hurriedly said, "Master, there's no need to spend money, I'll buy it for you."
Lingxi glanced at Yun Qingzi and asked hesitantly, "Do you know where to buy it?"
Yun Qingzi was rather thin and possessed an air of mature composure. Despite her serious demeanor, her words carried a confident undertone: "Master, we can just go to the high-speed rail station to buy them. That's how I've always bought them in the past few years."
Upon hearing this, Lingxi's lips twitched, and she said helplessly, "No need. It's convenient to use a mobile phone now. Don't say anything, just send it to me later."
Seeing Yun Qingzi's current appearance, I almost forgot that he is someone who, apart from helping people with fortune telling and performing rituals, stays at the Taoist temple and is not addicted to his mobile phone.
Not to mention Jin Moli, she was still a minor and had basically never even left the county except for studying.
Of the three, Lingxi ultimately bore the brunt of everything.
Lingxi silently gazed at the sky.
Yun Qingzi opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't continue speaking.
He really couldn't figure out how to use a mobile phone.
He only had a Nokia phone, which he had accidentally smashed once. After it was repaired and returned to him, it was basically just a decoration, except for making phone calls.
After Lingxi finished dispersing her spiritual energy.
He simply told his two apprentices to go home and pack their things.
The family had no choice but to ask Lin Fengjuan to help take care of them.
To prevent food poisoning, Yun Qingzi suggested bringing some cooked vegetables as a meal.
Lingxi readily approved it.
Since she acquired two apprentices, Lingxi only needs to give instructions regarding matters of the fields, leaving the actual work to her apprentices.
How delightful!
...
The next morning
With clear skies, it's a good time to travel.
Lingxi carried the backpack she had when she first arrived at Linxi Cave, dressed in a simple tracksuit, and set off lightly.
The three met at the village entrance.
Jin Moli, wearing a pink dress and carrying a pink backpack, skipped and hopped over to Ling Xi the moment she saw her.
The little girl said sweetly, "Master."
"Oh, my little sweetheart."
Hehe~
The master and apprentice hugged each other and laughed nonstop.
Compared to the two who were traveling simply, Yun Qingzi carried her own backpack and a bag in her hand.
Inside were a prepared cooked vegetable salad, braised fish, and three cups of brewed tea.
Lingxi exclaimed in surprise, "You even caught fish at the pond last night!"
Yun Qingzi: "Master, you and Jasmine are still young and need to have a balanced diet. I can't stand seeing you always eating vegetarian food."
"And..." Yun Qingzi gritted his teeth and revealed the truth: "I'm really craving it."
When food was mentioned, Yun Qingzi's expression became somewhat gloomy.
He's a good cook, and he doesn't want to neglect his palate.
Yun Qingzi's only hobby in her life
His cultivation level had increased, but he couldn't eat.
It was no less than severing half of his soul.
Yun Qingzi wouldn't allow this to happen. He gripped the bag strap tightly, his eyes burning with fervor. The breeding and farming plan was about to begin.
Lingxi and Jin Moli exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes, and then gave bitter smiles.
"We all understand that the appearance of spirit plants still requires the two of you to work harder to cultivate spirit plants and spirit beasts as soon as possible."
"It feels weird not to eat."
...
The high-speed rail journey to S City takes just over an hour.
Walk out of the station exit.
Lingxi took the water bottle from Yun Qingzi, took a sip, and realized something was wrong.
"Qingzi, where did this tea come from?"
Yun Qingzi effortlessly carried the three backpacks on her back, saying nonchalantly, "Master, I used spiritual water to make them, so you can drink them without worry."
"No, I'm asking about the tea?"
Yun Qingzi remained silent as if she hadn't heard anything.
Unable to get an answer, Lingxi gave up and took another sip of tea. It tasted sweet and had a captivating aroma. What a fine tea!
There were many drivers soliciting passengers outside the high-speed rail station.
After pushing a few people away, Lingxi went to the roadside, hailed a taxi at random, and headed to the hotel she had booked.
Yun Qingzi opened the back door of the car: "Master, get in quickly."
After Lingxi and Jin Moli got in, Yun Qingzi got into the passenger seat.
"Huh~ Master, it smells like lemon in the car... Yay!"
Jin Moli took a deep breath and looked curiously at the two piles of green lemons placed under the two seats in the car.
A faint lemon scent filled the car, with no unpleasant odors that made you want to vomit.
He was particularly friendly to Lingxi and the others.
This was the first time Lingxi had encountered such a thoughtful driver since she started taking taxis.
Lingxi: "Master, let's go to the Blue Valley Hotel."
"Okay, fasten your seatbelts."
The taxi driver carefully explained things to the passengers as usual. Lingxi, because of the lemon, curiously glanced at the driver's seat.
The driver was a plump, middle-aged man with a kind and gentle smile.
Lingxi had a very good first impression of him.
Lingxi: "Master, why did you think of putting so many lemons in the car?"
When the driver talked about lemons, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he said softly, "My wife really likes the taste of lemons. We grow a lot of lemons at home, so there are too many to use up. My wife puts them in the car for me and we replace them every now and then."
"Master, your wife is really clever."
The driver smiled happily: "She's thoughtful and considers everything carefully."
Lingxi noticed that the driver's face lit up whenever he mentioned his wife, and he became more talkative without realizing it.
"How many years have you been married, Master?"
We've been married for almost ten years.
While keeping an eye on the road, the driver told them the story of how he and his wife met.
Yun Qingzi closed her eyes and rested in the passenger seat.
I listen to gossip from time to time.
"My wife is very beautiful, fair-skinned and tall. Back then, many people were pursuing her, and I thought I had no chance."
Lingxi smiled faintly: "And then?"
"Later, because I'm fair-skinned, she took a liking to me at first sight; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to marry her."
"hey-hey……"
The driver's smile never stopped as he continued, "Back then, there was a really handsome man who pursued my wife relentlessly. Even when we were dating, he kept chasing after her."
"When that man came out, I was worried that my wife would dump me, but she didn't even look at him once. In the end, we got married, and only then did the man give up."
Lingxi had never met Su Ji's wife, but she learned about her character and love from the driver.
It was as if, by following the driver's words, she had met a complete stranger from afar.
It's truly amazing.
Jin Moli was a little bored, so she looked around and finally stared curiously at the screen in front of her.
The screen in front is silent. It shows a living room where a fair-skinned, beautiful woman brings over a glass of water. Just as she puts down the glass, a man wearing a baseball cap sticks a yellow note on her back. The note flashes briefly and then disappears from her back.
The woman's body stiffened instantly, as if she had been frozen in place. Even when the man went up to touch her face, she did not move.
Faced with such a bizarre scene, Jin Moli thought it was some kind of TV drama.
Upon seeing Huang Fu, she gently tugged at Ling Xi's sleeve, gesturing for Ling Xi to look ahead.
I was just about to ask if we knew how to draw talismans.
The next moment, her eyes were covered, and everything went dark.
Jin Moli: ? ? ?
She instinctively tried to break free, but her master stopped her. Jin Moli stopped instantly and leaned against Ling Xi's chest.
Lingxi stopped chatting, followed Jin Moli's movements, glanced at her, and stared wide-eyed as if she had seen something she couldn't bear to look at. At the same time, she immediately covered Moli's eyes with her hands.
What the hell!
