Chapter 131 World Four [17]
The next day, after waking up in a warm embrace, Wen Ruyue habitually stretched out her hand, wanting to rub Baihu's ears like she did in the previous few days, and then got up.
But after waving her hands several times, Wen Ruyue did not touch the furry ears she wanted. Not only that, she seemed unable to touch the white tiger's smooth fur.
What's going on? Did Jing Ke leave first? But I'm still pressed against her warm body.
Wen Ruyue opened her eyes, and as the light entered her eyes, a person with delicate and three-dimensional features, white hair and eyebrows appeared in front of her.
After blinking a little helplessly, a reasonable guess popped up in Wen Ruyue's mind.
In the sect’s headquarters, the probability of being attacked is almost zero.
Not to mention that Jing Ke was guarding me before I went to bed last night. At present, no cultivator is strong enough to take away the divine beast White Tiger silently.
After eliminating the outrageous speculations, Wen Ruyue was left with only one very reasonable possibility.
The big white tiger, which felt silky smooth to her touch and comfortable all over when buried, had absorbed all the spiritual power and not only completely stabilized its adult form, but also successfully transformed.
After staring at Jing Ke's eyebrows carefully for a long time, Wen Ruyue couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her snow-white eyebrows.
Before Wen Ruyue touched her a second time, Jing Ke's white eyelashes trembled, and she opened her eyes to reveal her amber eyes.
"Contractor, are you awake?" Jing Ke asked, and naturally moved his head over to rub her neck.
"Yes, yes, I'm awake." Wen Ruyue was stunned for a moment, then touched Jing Ke's head, a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
After Baihu turned into a human, it seemed that he could still touch Jing Ke's head.
"Contractor, I'm so hungry, I want to eat." Jing Ke buried his head in Wen Ruyue's body and said, and licked her neck with his tongue with a malicious look, as if marking his property.
Wen Ruyue's body stiffened, and she was slow to respond. "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"Well, I want to eat noodles and skewers." Jing Ke said in a muffled voice.
Seeing that Wen Ruyue did not stop his thoughts, Jing Ke gently bit her exposed collarbone again.
"By the way, I only have this one piece of clothing on me, contractor, I need something to wear." Jing Ke added.
"Okay, I have a lot of new clothes in my closet. You can take whatever you need." Wen Ruyue said, her tone a little stiffer than usual.
There's no way you can concentrate on answering someone's questions if they're chatting with you while they're kissing and biting your neck.
It’s okay, it’s okay. The one who bit your neck was not someone else, but Jing Ke.
Although Jing Ke is in human form, he is essentially a little white tiger that has just grown up. Biting his own neck and licking himself are both ways of expressing intimacy.
Wen Ruyue comforted herself in this way. After Jing Ke left a very obvious mark on one side of her neck, he slowly moved his body away, temporarily giving Wen Ruyue freedom.
Wen Ruyue is about 1.76 meters tall, only slightly shorter than the transformed Jing Ke, so most of her clothes fit Jing Ke very well.
After picking and choosing in the wardrobe, Jing Ke gave up on the so-called new clothes and directly put on Wen Ruyue's favorite black vest.
Next is a khaki crew neck sweater, then a black coat and black pants to complete the outfit.
As for shoes, Jing Ke chose a pair of black snow boots, which are the most common in winter. Since two people are of similar height, the shoe sizes will naturally not be much different.
After getting dressed and coming out of the room, Jing Ke's attire was not much different from other worldly monks, except for the unusual color of his hair.
Jing Ke pushed open the kitchen door skillfully and smelled the fragrance coming from the stove. He couldn't help but move closer to Wen Ruyue.
"Contractor, I'm hungry and I want to eat." Jing Ke made the request without any psychological burden.
"The noodles will take a while before they can be put into the pot. Can I fry you an egg to fill your stomach first?" Wen Ruyue said, and then she found that her right shoulder had become much heavier.
Without looking back, Wen Ruyue knew that Jing Ke had rested her chin on it, causing her to slow down her vegetable cutting movements.
"Okay, but I want to eat two." Jing Ke said.
Jing Ke not only rested his chin on Wen Ruyue's shoulder, but also went a step further and hung himself on her.
A person's weight was not a burden to Wen Ruyue. It was just that when she moved and used her right arm, her speed was a little slower than usual.
Three minutes later, Wen Ruyue placed two freshly poached eggs on a plate.
"It's still a little hot when it comes out of the pot. You can eat it slowly." Wen Ruyue reminded, put the plate on the dining table beside her, and stuffed the washed chopsticks into Jing Ke's hand.
"Okay, I want more to drink." Jing Ke sat on the chair holding chopsticks, looking at Wen Ruyue with his big amber eyes, waiting for the breeder to come and feed him.
Although Jing Ke had turned into a human form, the familiar look in her eyes reminded Wen Ruyue of the little white tiger who acted coquettishly and cutely towards her when they looked at each other. She suddenly lost all her bottom line and only indulged her.
Okay, okay, okay, it’s all right, no problem!
-
Holding the porcelain bowl of heated milk in both hands, Jing Ke drank it in small sips, while watching Wen Ruyue busying herself with her meals.
After Jing Ke slowly finished a glass of milk and two fried eggs, Wen Ruyue successfully brought the freshly-cooked noodles and skewers to her.
"If you're still hungry after eating, I'll continue cooking for you." Wen Ruyue said, bringing her own bowl of noodles to the dining table and sitting face to face with Jing Ke.
"Okay, thank you, contractor." Jing Ke smelled the aroma of the skewers and decided to attack them first.
The noodles are ordinary hand-rolled noodles, but the main ingredient of the barbecue is meat specially provided by the Beastmaster Sect. It is simply marinated and then grilled on charcoal fire. It tastes more delicious than ordinary skewers.
Wen Ruyue didn't know how much Jing Ke ate after his transformation, so she prepared twenty skewers of barbecued meat at once. Judging from the quantity, the meat alone was enough to fill the stomachs of two people.
The appetite of a person transformed from the mythical beast white tiger certainly cannot be measured by that of an ordinary person. After eating three skewers in one breath, Jing Ke's eyes were much brighter than before.
If the clothes hadn't prevented Jing Ke from showing her tail, her tail, which was more than one meter long, would have been shaking.
"Contractor, the skewers taste great, come and eat with me." Jing Ke said, grabbing four skewers of different flavors and handing them over.
Wen Ruyue did not refuse and took it generously.
There is still a lot of special meat in her storage space. If Jing Ke wants to eat more after finishing her meal, she can grill it on the spot. There is no need to push and shove for four skewers.
"Jing Ke, you can call me by my name, Wen Ruyue." After finishing a skewer, Wen Ruyue said, "That way it won't be easy to reveal your flaws in front of outsiders."
"Wen Ruyue?" Jing Ke repeated, then frowned slightly, "No, anyone can call you by your name, but only I can call you Contractor. I don't want you to be called by your name."
Jing Ke said, "You can tell others my name, but I don't like them calling my name. Only the contractor can call my name, do you understand?"
Wen Ruyue was stunned. She was the only one who could call Jing Ke's name. Was this a benefit exclusive to the contractors?
"Contractor?" Jing Ke shouted, her tone slightly dissatisfied. "Contractor, are you listening to me carefully?"
"I'm listening. I've got it. I won't tell your name to anyone else casually." Wen Ruyue said.
"You can tell them, but they can't shout," Jing Ke corrected.
"Okay, I'll take note of it." Wen Ruyue said with a smile.
After finishing the noodles and skewers, Wen Ruyue asked slowly, "Jing Ke, can you change your hair color? Your hair color is very rare."
"I can, but I don't want it. White hair isn't a bad thing." Jing Ke also had the temperament of a mythical beast. She could barely accept the change from a white tiger to a cat. After all, the white tiger is a national first-class protected animal.
But there is no big problem with white hair and eyebrows. Just go to the barber shop and we can give you not only white hair but also rainbow hair.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't thoughtful enough." Wen Ruyue apologized immediately, "I didn't mean to say anything bad about you, it's just that white hair might attract a lot of people's attention. They might secretly take pictures of you like before."
"Then take pictures. I've seen my human form and it looks good. Even if my hair color is normal, there will be a lot of people who want to take pictures of me secretly." Jing Ke said.
After looking in the mirror, Jing Ke had a clearer understanding of her appearance. The mixture of coldness, mystery and an indelible sense of distance would make some overconfident people dream of something grand.
Wen Ruyue stared at Jing Ke's outstanding facial features and had to admit that what she said was right. Even if she changed to ordinary black hair and black eyes, Jing Ke would still attract a lot of attention when walking on the street.
After successfully filling her own and Jing Ke's stomachs, Wen Ruyue invited Jing Ke to walk around the sect and familiarize herself with the general layout.
After hearing that he would spend the Spring Festival in the sect’s headquarters, Jing Ke did not refuse. He took Wen Ruyue’s hand and held it, and asked her to take him out for a ride.
It was not yet ten o'clock when the two left the yard. For ordinary disciples, it was still during the morning class.
So Jing Ke saw the disciples of Lingxiao Sect meditating in groups in the square, and some of them were sparring with weapons in the ring, looking very lively.
"There is a small spirit stone vein under the square. After our master discovered it, he set up a formation on it. It will be activated from 8 to 10 o'clock every day. If you practice nearby at this time, you can get twice the result with half the effort." Wen Ruyue explained.
Wen Ruyue's physique is somewhat special. She has a natural buff for absorbing external spiritual energy. When she meditates and practices, the speed of absorbing spiritual energy will increase, resulting in a shortage of spiritual energy within several meters around her. So she just flashed through the morning class with everyone at the beginning.
As for later on, Wen Ruyue was naturally given special training by her master. She was given a small spirit gathering array by herself, which could be used at any time 24 hours a day.
After standing in the distance and watching the ordinary disciples practice for a while, Wen Ruyue took Jing Ke to other places, including but not limited to the back mountain, the library, the Enlightenment Hall, etc.
After going around in circles, Wen Ruyue asked Jing Ke if he wanted to go and meet his master.
"Okay, it's not like Master Wen and I haven't met before." Jing Ke agreed immediately, opened his mouth and bit the orange that Wen Ruyue had just peeled, swallowing half of it in one gulp.
"Doesn't your master know that I have transformed?" Jing Ke asked with puffed cheeks.
"I didn't tell Master, but we were out for a long time, so Master should have known about it." Wen Ruyue said truthfully.
After Jing Ke swallowed the orange in her mouth, Wen Ruyue handed the remaining half to her mouth.
"Then go." Jing Ke bit the orange, his cheeks puffed up, looking innocent and harmless.
-
"Excuse me, what should I call you?" After feeling that Jing Ke's cultivation was obviously stronger than his, Sect Leader Wen did not put himself in the position of an elder, but asked Jing Ke politely.
"You should know my name. If you don't mind, you can call me senior. I'm older than you anyway." Jing Ke said.
As for the birth time of the little white tiger, it was at least three hundred years ago. And since Sect Leader Wen was not even a hundred years old yet, there was no problem for him to call Jing Ke "senior".
"Okay, Senior Baihu, I wonder if you understand the evil demon?" Sect Leader Wen didn't waste any time. After changing the address, he asked the question that concerned him most.
Some questions are more appropriate for her to ask than for Wen Ruyue to ask.
"I don't know much about it, but if they cause harm to the world, I will deal with them." Jing Ke stated directly.
After hearing the answer, Sect Leader Wen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that letting the little white tiger pass through its growth period so quickly was indeed the will of heaven, and his guess was correct.
"Senior Baihu, I wonder if there are any signs before the evil demon appears? We want to make some preparations in advance." asked Master Wen.
Sect Leader Wen was indeed a little relieved, but she was not completely relieved.
Because Sect Leader Wen remembered very clearly that when he first met Jing Ke last year, she was still a little white tiger that looked cute and fierce, just like a three-year-old cub.
In the opinion of Sect Leader Wen, the little white tiger grew into an adult too quickly. She had never experienced the dangers of the outside world. While her strength had greatly increased, her mind might not have improved as well.
"It's an omen. The appearance of an evil demon represents bad luck. I should be able to sense it." Jing Ke recalled his inherited memories. "Not only me, but even the most advanced cultivators in the world should be able to sense it, such as having a sudden dream or something."
"Well, technology is very advanced now, and we can monitor the situation in various regions. We just need to pay attention to whether there are areas with more frequent disasters, such as heavy rains, landslides, droughts, floods, small-scale earthquakes, etc."
Jing Ke counted on her fingers. She would not lose her temper when it came to important matters, and told all the useful information in the inherited memory.
"But I don't think you need to worry too much. The evil demon is very weak when it first appears. As long as the person who discovers it doesn't conceal it, or if they want to use the evil demon to achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation, you and the other sect leaders can attack it together and defeat it."
Jing Ke: "So I suggest that you eight major sects join forces with that special management bureau to form a special team. Each side should assign two absolutely trustworthy people to it. This way, you can avoid the situation I mentioned to the greatest extent possible."
Sect Leader Wen carefully wrote down every word Jing Ke said, but when he heard Jing Ke say that cultivators would conceal the existence of evil spirits for their own selfish interests, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Senior Baihu, can evil demons sign a contract with cultivators?" asked Sect Master Wen.
This was a possibility that Sect Leader Wen had never considered. In her opinion, evil spirits should be the public enemy of cultivators, and no cultivator would want to feel the existence of evil spirits.
"Of course, there were many evil demons that bewitched people in the past. They liked to cooperate with those monks who wanted to get something for nothing, or to bewitch monks who wanted to break through their cultivation. After using them, those monks would in turn become food for the evil demons, helping them to improve their strength." Jing Ke said slowly.
Jing Ke did not exaggerate, she was just telling the truth.
Many so-called disasters are actually caused by the monks themselves. The emergence of evil spirits is actually related to the fact that some monks have too many evil thoughts.
After hearing this, Sect Leader Wen stood up and bowed to Jing Ke with a serious expression. "Thank you, Senior Baihu, for telling me. I will discuss this with the other Sect Leaders right away and try our best to avoid this kind of thing."
"You're welcome. You are my contractor's master. If you have any questions to ask me, I don't mind telling you the answers for free." Jing Ke showed a distant smile on her face.
However, her hand hidden under the solid wooden table has never been still since she sat down. She is either touching Wen Ruyue's fingers or writing on her palm to express her demands to her.
For example, now, Jing Ke wrote several words on Wen Ruyue's hand.
Afterwards, Sect Leader Wen saw the White Tiger Senior he had been talking about opened his mouth towards his eldest disciple, bit the Hami melon she handed over, and then leaned over to rub the side of the eldest disciple's face with his nose.
Well, how should I put it.
Sect Leader Wen decided to withdraw the idea that had just popped up in his mind. Senior Baihu did have some childishness in him. The fact that he was as calm as an old senior just now must have been his illusion.
