Chapter 402 Did something unclean get into the house?
The night was still and quiet. After learning a few new songs, they drank some wine along with the barbecue. Not only Qu Feiyan and her friends, but also Lianxing and Xue Qianxun and the other girls were drunk and their eyes were blurry.
Looking at Xue Qianxun, who was holding a wine jar with her head down and her face flushed, Dongfang Bubai found her inexplicably adorable.
With both parents gone, the eldest sister is like a mother to her.
Having been separated from Xue Qianxun since childhood, Dongfang Bubai has no other wish than for Xue Qianxun to be happy every day.
Instead of becoming cold and bloodthirsty as he had become after going astray.
This is why Dongfang Bubai was in such a hurry to bring Xue Qianxun to Chu Qinghe's side.
And the result was exactly as Dongfang Bubai had expected.
On Chu Qinghe's side, there was Chu Qinghe protecting her from the outside, and Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan, who were her playmates of similar age and genuinely cared for Xue Qianxun, were also there.
After a few months, Xue Qianxun had regained some of the feeling of Yilin she used to have.
However, due to his previous drastic change in temperament, he has lost some of his naivety.
That would be the best of both worlds.
After Lianxing, Qu Feiyan and the others were sent back to their respective rooms, Dongfang Bubai, Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji returned to the rooftop and lay down like Chu Qinghe, quietly enjoying the late summer night view.
As a pot of wine passed from hand to hand, listening to the crickets' chirping, which was no longer so loud and chaotic, and feeling the gentle caress of the night breeze, though no words were spoken, their moods were like a babbling brook, flowing gently without the slightest hint of restlessness.
Once you enter the world of martial arts, time flies by. The world of martial arts is dangerous, but the real danger is the feeling of being adrift and helpless within it.
It is precisely because Dongfang Bubai, Yaoyue, and Shuimu Yinji have all experienced and felt this that they understand how precious and comforting it is to be able to spend every day by Chu Qinghe's side in peace.
After a long while, as it approached the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), Chu Qinghe, who had taken a short nap to recharge, slowly got up.
"Let's go, time to sleep!"
After finishing his sentence, Chu Qinghe drank the remaining wine in the pot in one gulp before leaping down and landing lightly in the courtyard.
Upon seeing this, the three people, including Dongfang Bubai, jumped down from the rooftop one after another.
However, after they came down, they did not immediately follow Chu Qinghe into the main house. Instead, they looked at each other and then reached out their hands one after another.
Under the moonlight, there are three hands, two palms up and one palm down.
Glancing at Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, whose palms were now facing upwards, Shuimu Yinji smiled and said, "Thank you both for your modesty, sisters."
After saying that, Jellyfish Yin Ji withdrew her hand and turned to walk into the main house.
Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue exchanged a glance, and after silently counting to three, they both stretched out their hands again.
Then, Yaoyue gestured with a hint of pride as she showed her fist, and then became the second person to enter the main house.
Dongfang Bubai followed behind Yaoyue with a slightly gloomy expression.
In any place and in any situation, as the number of people increases, some special rules will gradually emerge.
This also applies to Chu Qinghe's courtyard.
The next day.
After lunch, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue took a nap and then went out.
Watching Dongfang Bubai and the others walk away in different directions, Wanwan put down her wine cup and, pulling Shuimu Yinji along, headed towards the other courtyard.
Qu Feiyan and the others each chose a spot and began to cultivate.
Chu Qinghe, however, remained seated by the stone table, his upper body slumped over it, clearly looking as if he hadn't woken up yet.
For Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, this period of time has been full of gains every day.
But you only reap what you sow.
For every gain Dongfang Bubai and his companions made, Chu Qinghe paid the price.
Now, Chu Qinghe truly understands what it means to "wear out one's heart for the sake of one's beloved."
I simply can't get enough sleep.
It was supposed to be a matter involving five people, but in the end, only Chu Qinghe became increasingly thin and haggard.
A moment later, after his internal energy had circulated for a while and dispelled some of his drowsiness, Chu Qinghe summoned his mascot as usual.
After placing his hand on Xiao Zhao's head and silently reciting the mantra for absorbing the negative energy, Chu Qinghe then silently recited a phrase in his mind.
"System, please check in."
[Ding, the current host has accumulated three months of check-ins. Do you wish to check in again?]
"Sure"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired ten thousand taels of gold.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 3 Martial Arts Advancement Cards.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained Martial Arts AFK Card *1]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a random secondary profession card (Grandmaster level).]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a special item: Indra Character Card (Divine Seating Realm Perfection).]
[The reward has been automatically added to your system inventory. Please check and retrieve it yourself.]
As system notifications popped up, a glint flashed in Chu Qinghe's eyes.
"Am I really that lucky this time? I got three 'Martial Arts Advancement Cards' at once?"
After patting Xiao Zhao on the head and telling her to go cultivate, Chu Qinghe quickly focused his attention on checking the system, and his expression softened slightly.
According to the system, the three "Martial Arts Advancement Cards" that Chu Qinghe drew this time were the same as before, and could still improve the grade of martial arts and even techniques.
