Chapter 11 You Are the Only One
"Has anyone ever told you that the patterns on your body are those of a snake, not a dragon? And a special kind of snake, called a brocade-scaled anaconda," Xu Chuchu explained softly. "The brocade-scaled anaconda is a transformed dragon. Its scales are as colorful as brocade. Its body is thick in front and tapering in the back. Its tail is like a steel needle that can pierce a hundred copper coins. It can strangle humans and animals and then devour them."
"More importantly, this snake is extremely lustful. Once a woman is entangled by it, the snake will pierce her vagina with its tail, and the woman will surely die."
"There's a water-dividing bead in its skull and a wish-fulfilling hook on its tailbone. If a man holds it in his mouth and has sex with it, he can have sex with ten women a day. It's the treasure of every perverted man."
Xu Chuchu looked him up and down. "Xiao Yu, your fate is bound by the pattern of the Brocade Scaled Anaconda. It's not surprising that you are easily attracted to women."
She said this to comfort Xiao Yu, "Ah, it's all fate, just think positively and don't take it too seriously."
But Xiao Yu didn't show any sign of relief. He asked her, "Are you saying that I didn't contract a strange disease, but that this is my nature?"
"Yes." Xu Chuchu admitted.
In the eyes of enlightened people like Xu Chuchu, there is nothing strange about this, just like some people are born smart and some are born stupid, it is all determined by fate.
Smart people have smart ways of living, and stupid people have stupid ways of living. This is how the world is.
Xiao Yu suddenly stood up and walked to her side, three steps away. "Now that you know the whole story, do you have any solution?"
Xu Chuchu also guessed that he would ask this question, but could only shake his head regretfully: "No."
Xiao Yu was still unwilling to give up: "Master, think about it again, is there really no solution?"
"As long as the fortune teller shows me a clear path, I can satisfy you with whatever you want, whether it's gold, silver, or status." He added.
The fact that he could make Xiao Yu, who has always refused to admit defeat and never gave in, bow his head and beg for help shows that he really cares about this matter.
Xu Chuchu raised her eyes, met his burning gaze, and shook her head helplessly.
It seems that her initial guess was not wrong. With such a bold tone, Xiao Yu must not be an ordinary rich young man, and his background must be not ordinary.
But she didn't hide the idea of changing her fate. It really wasn't something that could be changed just by saying so.
As the saying goes, "Go against the will of heaven and change your destiny." Going against the will of heaven can illustrate how difficult it is to "change your destiny." Moreover, if you do things that go against the will of heaven, you will be punished by heaven.
Xu Chuchu had only helped some people change their fortunes, but he was punished and sent back to ancient times. His cultivation was taken away, and now he has no ability and will no longer help others change their fate.
The same goes for other fortune tellers. Even if they are really willing to take the risk of divine punishment, it is impossible to force people to change their fate without extremely high cultivation and extremely harsh conditions.
"If so, it's really destined." Xiao Yu didn't ask any more questions, but smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's a good thing that I can figure out the whole story today."
Without waiting for Xu Chuchu to offer any more words of comfort, he turned around and looked at the nearby mountains and starry sky, then returned to the carriage, closed the curtains again, and then remained silent.
Xu Chuchu scratched her head in annoyance. Yes, she had been jumping back and forth between the emotions of "sympathy for the beautiful, strong and miserable one" and "this guy is the most despicable one".
Forget it, seeing him like this, I'd better sympathize with him tonight.
But compared to Xiao Yu's "acceptance of fate", his followers were much more uneasy.
The leading Ah Fu was like a hen, and the rest of the followers were like chicks. The hen led the chicks and chirped around Xu Chuchu, asking her about Xiao Yu's illness all the time, saying that she must have a way to solve it. She asked her why she kept it secret and whether she thought Xiao Yu's offer was not sincere enough.
"Why do I have to be able to solve this problem?" Xu Chuchu was puzzled by their disturbance.
"Because you are a fortune teller!" said an attendant.
"What's wrong with the physiognomist?" Xu Chuchu argued. "Didn't you see that I, the physiognomist, could barely defeat the fox demon just now? Changing one's fate is not something you can do just by saying it. Well, I'll change mine first and turn myself into a beauty first."
"There's one more thing." The leader, Ah Fu, said seriously, "Because you are the only woman our young master has come into contact with who hasn't gotten sick."
"What?" Xu Chuchu's little eyes were filled with big question marks.
Is there such a thing?
"That's right." The other followers also echoed, "Remember, we accidentally bumped into you before, but you didn't get sick."
"Yes, the young master would react no matter how ugly the woman was, except you."
Faced with the chattering followers, Xu Chuchu was confused.
Excuse me? No, wait, you're saying this to others. Are you really loyal followers? Isn't this really the result of Xiao Yu's sins in his previous life?
"Maybe your young master's illness recovered on its own?" she argued.
The followers began to chatter and explain again.
"No, after meeting you, our young master asked the lady selling buns to try, but he still got sick."
"Either I'm emotionally aroused, or there are physical changes..."
"Yes, you are the only exception. That's why the Master allowed you to come along."
Xu Chuchu still didn't understand: "But why am I an exception?"
The followers fell silent.
In the end, Ah Fu looked at her sympathetically and said, "Perhaps, Master, you are really not... the type that our young master likes?"
That's the auntie selling buns?!
Xu Chuchu felt like he had been hit by a 10,000-point critical strike. "There's really no solution, or maybe I'm just too ignorant to know. Don't ask me. And you guys should all go to sleep quickly. The fox demon sucked your yang energy tonight. If you don't get enough rest, you'll easily become impotent."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They didn't care about Xu Chuchu's "vulgar" words anymore. They hurriedly lit bonfires around them and then fell asleep, fearing that they would not be able to sleep.
They were also worried that there would be more monsters chasing them, so they huddled together like a ball. Ah Fu also muttered that he was going to take the official road in the future and stay away from these strange mountains and forests.
However, Xu Chuchu knew that they had killed a third-level fox demon tonight and there were traces left. No small demons would dare to attack again in the short term. However, it is better to be safe than sorry, so she did not try to stop Ah Fu.
After everyone had slept peacefully for a long time, she secretly got up and came to the pile of mud and ash where the fox demon was killed. She carefully dug around and found a round bead.
It is the inner elixir of a third-level fox demon.
Xu Chuchu quickly hid the inner elixir in his sleeve and returned to his seat to continue resting.
In her previous life, she didn't even care about this inner elixir. After all, she was already at the seventh level, and taking a third-level inner elixir wouldn't even cause a splash.
But in this life, she is only at the first level, and she just destroyed the peach wood sword, so she needs this inner elixir to improve her cultivation.
As for why they took it secretly, it was of course because they were afraid of causing misunderstanding.
This inner elixir is useful for cultivators, but harmful to ordinary people who have never practiced. If those foolish people really think this is a treasure and want to share it with her or buy it with silver, it is hard to explain.
Just don't say it.
