Chapter 389 Heartache So Hard to Breathe
As dusk fell, the sky and earth turned a hazy yellow, and everything became indistinct.
The entire courtyard, and even the adjacent villa, had been cleaned spotlessly.
"Dinner's ready!"
As soon as Qu Feiyan returned to the courtyard and called out, Lianxing and Wanwan, who had just finished cleaning the bath in the backyard, immediately set off towards the inner courtyard.
As Chu Qinghe, who was squatting under the camellia tree in the inner courtyard adding a little bit of Flowing Fire Soil to the side, slowly got up, he quickly drew a stream of water from the well in the distance with his true essence and washed his hands.
Dongfang Bubai and the others naturally stopped refining their internal energy and walked towards the stone table to the side.
Everything was so skillful yet natural.
Throughout history, what has touched people most deeply has often been the simplest and most ordinary things.
After the meal, as Qu Feiyan and the other girls began to tidy up the things on the table, Lin Shiyin got up familiarly and went to the backyard to put the water from the iron bucket into the pool.
After Qu Feiyan and the others had finished cleaning up the dishes, Lin Shiyin, as Chu Qinghe had instructed, took out a jar of wine from the wine cellar in the villa and poured it into the pond in the backyard.
Soon, the familiar fragrance began to spread gradually from the backyard.
The delicate fragrance, as pure as orchids, immediately filled the entire courtyard and spread to the adjacent courtyard.
A short while later, when they were in the pool water mixed with medicinal wine, just like every time they returned after a long absence, Chu Qinghe, Dongfang Bubai, Yaoyue, and the others all unconsciously let out a long sigh of relief.
The accumulated stress from being away from home for many days was expelled with this long sigh, mingling with the chirping of crickets in the night, allowing both body and mind to relax unconsciously.
A gentle breeze occasionally blows, and the camellias, which should be in the inner courtyard, sway in the wind. Some drift to other courtyards, while others drift into the pond.
The little one, like Qu Feiyan and Wanwan on the other side of the curtain, was floating motionless on the water with its belly facing the night sky.
After taking a sip from the wine pot handed to him by Yaoyue, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but smile contentedly as he savored the sweet and fragrant wine and felt the warmth spreading through his body and the mist enveloping his face.
"Forget it, if I need to travel far again, it's better to go alone and come back sooner! Otherwise, like the last few times, I'll have to spend months on the road."
With Chu Qinghe's current level of lightness skill, it would only take him a few days to travel from the Ming Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, even if he traveled leisurely.
Once everything is settled, it should take about two weeks.
This also saves us from having to stay away from home for months at a time.
After an incense stick has burned.
As the water in the newly replaced bamboo tube beside him was flowing intermittently, Chu Qinghe finally got up from the pool.
For Chu Qinghe, daily bathing was good, but being able to appreciate the slightly homely and languid appearance of Dongfang Bubai or the other women after their baths was even more delightful.
Whether watching Dongfang Bubai and his companions, or gazing at the moon, one can enjoy a cup of wine, a beautiful view, and a delicious meal.
Life is like this, why ask for anything else?
Perhaps it's because I just got home, or perhaps it's because I feel relaxed all over after taking a shower, and a bit of laziness has crept into my body.
Even Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, who had been constantly refining the various energies in their bodies every day, were not cultivating at this time. Instead, they were playing the game "Werewolf" with Chu Qinghe.
Enjoy this feeling of complete relaxation.
It wasn't until after several rounds of drinks, when Wanwan, Qu Feiyan, and the others were all drunk, that the courtyard finally quieted down.
Inside the adjacent courtyard.
Turning his head to look at Dongfang Bubai, Lianxing, and Yaoyue who were slowly entering the courtyard, Chu Qinghe asked, "Are they all asleep already?"
As he walked towards Chu Qinghe, Dongfang Bubai approached and said, "They've drunk quite a bit, which saves us the trouble of striking their pressure points tonight."
Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "They are all at the peak of the Grandmaster realm now. It's a bit disrespectful to have them sleep with their acupoints pressed every day."
Upon hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Yaoyue suddenly stretched out her fair, jade-like hand in front of Chu Qinghe and said, "Then you prepare some medicine, and we'll take out the sleeping pills for them to take every night?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe lightly patted Yaoyue's hand in an annoyed manner.
"Then you should use acupressure on them!"
Although Qu Feiyan and the other girls are subjected to acupressure every day, Dongfang Bubai and the others are very careful in their actions. With the current effects of the phoenix blood in the girls' bodies, there will be no aftereffects or damage whatsoever.
But it's different if you take medication.
Over time, the drug toxins will accumulate in their bodies, and Chu Qinghe will have to spend time removing the toxins from the women's bodies.
As for the issue of dirtiness...
Heh, we're family, so let them be dirty! Anyway, Qu Feiyan and the other girls are used to it now.
Seeing this, Yaoyue gave a soft hum, then exchanged a glance with Dongfang Bubai and Shuimu Yinji.
Then, the three of them silently counted to three and stretched out their hands at the same time. Under the moonlight, the three women's outstretched hands had two palms facing up and one palm facing down.
Seeing this, Yaoyue's face darkened as she turned her palm down. Then, without saying a word, she walked to the recliner furthest from Chu Qinghe and sat down.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Bubai and Shuimu Yinji lay down on either side of Chu Qinghe.
