"no."
"Huh? Why?"
Lu Tu lifted Song Yuxi's chin with his finger: "Because we are not married yet, although we can't have a grand wedding procession right now, I still have to give you a ceremony!"
Song Yuxi was overjoyed, her eyes shining with excitement: "Thank you for your kindness, my husband."
Lu Tu didn't waste any words. For now, everything had to be kept simple, but the proper etiquette still had to be followed, as this was his first marriage in both his lives.
He helped Song Yuxi to the windowsill and made her kneel down. Song Yuxi was the first to swear an oath to the moon: "Today, Song Yuxi is willing to marry Lü Tu as his wife, and will never abandon him for all eternity! Heaven and earth bear witness, and if I betray him, may my body and soul perish!"
Song Yuxi's eyes were filled with tears of emotion as she gazed at Lü Tu's face, indicating that it was his turn to express his opinion.
Lu Tu gazed solemnly at the sky and declared loudly, "Me too!"
Song Yuxi chuckled and scolded, "Husband, be serious, the gods in heaven are watching."
Lu Tu solemnly kowtowed three times to the sky: "Father, Mother, Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, I will take good care of Yu Xi, please don't worry!"
These words were too simple, but Song Yuxi was exactly drawn to them. She knew that Lü Tu was a rough and uncultured man, and it would be too much to ask him to say anything sweet or charming. Receiving such a sincere confession made Song Yuxi feel more at ease.
"Husband, help me to bed."
Lu Tu helped her to the bed and brought over the quilt and mattress she had sewn. Song Yuxi took out the silk scarf she had taken out during the day and carefully spread it on the bed.
After doing all this, Song Yuxi noticed that Lü Tu was looking at her, and immediately blushed and buried herself in the quilt.
"What are you still standing there for?" Song Yuxi muttered softly.
These words were like a powerful aphrodisiac injected into Lü Tu's spine, instantly igniting a flame in his lower abdomen.
He quickly took off his clothes, crawled inside, and hugged Song Yuxi in his arms.
Feeling the sweet scent emanating from his nose, Lü Tu felt increasingly hot: "My wife, you smell so good."
Song Yuxi was too shy to speak at this moment, her eyes tightly closed, looking charming and ready to be taken advantage of.
Unable to endure the torment any longer, Lü Tu released his emotions completely. His hand caressed Song Yuxi's smooth, jade-like back, sliding down to her pert waist. He gave it a firm squeeze, and Song Yuxi let out a sweet, innocent "hmm."
Taking advantage of the moment, Lü Tu sealed her warm lips with his, kissing her upper palate and her lower gums.
The spring night was long and warm, and the whole house echoed with tender moans, mixed with the crackling of firewood in the stove, which lingered for a long time.
On their wedding night, like a long-awaited rain after a drought, the two indulged in passion until the second watch of the night before falling into a deep sleep in each other's arms.
The next morning, when Lü Tu opened his eyes, he saw Song Yuxi sleeping soundly. After giving her a light kiss on the forehead, he got up to exercise.
This has been his unwavering habit for many years. He slept for less than 6 hours last night, but he was still full of energy and vitality. It is unknown whether it was because he drank deer blood and ate deer meat, or because of the balance of yin and yang.
After stretching his body in the courtyard, Lü Tu unleashed a set of Black Dragon Eighteen Fists, his most proficient martial art. Even in his previous life, it was renowned and had long been listed as a forbidden technique. It was taught to him privately by his old squad leader.
After finishing the entire treatment, he felt his body gradually warming up. Just as he was about to get something to eat before getting back to work, he noticed Song Yuxi leaning against the door watching him.
"My lord, your boxing style is incredibly powerful. Even the Taizu Long Fist created by the founding emperor of the Great Yu Dynasty cannot compare!"
Lu Tu suddenly became interested: "You also know martial arts?"
Song Yuxi snorted: "Husband underestimates me. I watched my father teach my brothers martial arts since I was a child."
Lu Tu flicked her delicate nose and laughed, "I know you're an expert, so cook, expert."
Song Yuxi smiled sweetly: "I'm not a master. My father used to forbid me from learning martial arts. But based on my observation, my husband, your external martial arts skills have already surpassed my father's. However, you have a fatal weakness."
Upon hearing this, Lü Tu couldn't help but chuckle. As the king of special forces in the Dragon Kingdom, how could he possibly have a weakness in external martial arts? "What weakness? Please enlighten me, little beauty."
After last night's interaction, Lü Tu already knew that Song Yuxi was most ticklish. At this moment, Song Yuxi dodged Lü Tu's attacking hand and laughed, "I'm not talking nonsense, don't tease my husband."
"Okay, I won't make a fuss, go ahead and tell me."
"My lord, you have mastered the external martial arts to the extreme, but you have never practiced internal energy cultivation!"
"Internal energy?" Lu Tu was startled upon hearing this. He thought that his deceased father-in-law had become a general, so perhaps he really did have some secrets!
"Yes! It's internal energy. My father once said that external martial arts should be practiced in conjunction with internal energy training so as not to leave hidden dangers in one's muscles and bones. Otherwise, when one gets older, serious illnesses will take hold, and every time it rains, one's limbs will feel like they are being eaten away by a hundred ants!"
Lu Tu understood after hearing this. It seemed there was some scientific basis to it. Just like those acrobats in his previous life, although they were in good health when they were young, once they got older, they had a lot of occupational diseases that were incurable. This was why rich people would never let their children suffer like that.
Seeing that Lü Tu seemed lost in thought, Song Yuxi assumed he was worried, so she took his arm and pulled him into the house: "But my Song family has a set of internal energy cultivation methods. As long as you set aside half an hour each day to practice, there's nothing to worry about!"
"real?"
“Okay! Husband, I’ll teach you. Just follow my movements.” After saying that, Song Yuxi struck a unique stance in the ground.
Lu Tu saw this and, although he had seen similar stance training before, the Song family's internal energy cultivation technique was truly strange. However, he was still willing to believe Song Yuxi. After all, in this chaotic world, the two of them could only rely on each other to survive, and there was no reason for them to lie to each other.
Song Yuxi then told him how to adjust his breathing and how long to hold each movement before he went to cook.
Lu Tu began to practice his internal energy on the spot. Even though Lu Tu was still skilled, his body was extremely thin due to malnutrition and he could not persist for half an hour at a time. However, even so, even if he only stood in the stance for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he was already sweating.
It should be noted that the previous Black Dragon Eighteen Fists had only served as a warm-up for him, yet this sudden burst of energy had invigorated him! It seems that his father-in-law's family-inherited stance training is truly quite effective!
Song Yuxi had already prepared the meal, but she didn't disturb Lü Tu. Her eyes were full of admiration as she looked at Lü Tu!
She recalled how her older brothers were forced to practice this skill when they were young, and how miserable they looked. As she thought about it, tears welled up in her eyes.
Lu Tu finally held on for half an hour. When he returned to his normal position, he felt his muscles trembling all over. The seemingly simple physical exercise was more effective than the scientific exercise in his previous life!
