Chapter 183: Being Cheated in Love
Xu Chuchu sat next to her master and began to use her spiritual power to regulate her body.
Doing this may have some effect, but only a little. Master has a fifth-level cultivation base, and it is not easy for him to control such a powerful spiritual power.
It would not be difficult if she were still at her peak, but it is really a drop in the bucket now.
Seeing that everyone was in a bad mood, the master tried to comfort them: "Why are you all so sad? I've died once before, so the time I can live now is a blessing in disguise. It's not a loss."
"Master..." Xu Zhe was unhappy with what she said.
"Okay, Jiji. It's a rare day for everyone to get together today. Why don't you cook some delicious dishes and let the senior sister taste your cooking skills?" The master ordered with a smile.
"That's right, go quickly, Gigi!" Daju emphasized the word Gigi again.
He saw Ah Fu hiding behind and eavesdropping, and kicked him again: "Little brother, go help too!"
Now, in the whole family, his cultivation is tied for first place. Although he is a pet cat, he also has a high status in the family.
Xu Chuchu helped his master to sleep and rest. After coming out, he was pulled by Daju and muttered to himself.
"Look at this Jiji, he's so annoying, talking to you so harshly." He whispered, "No, I'm going to rally my little brothers to ostracize him."
Xu Chuchu smiled helplessly: "Have you been praising me in front of him every day? What about your senior sister is so talented and intelligent, and how high her cultivation level is at her age... You are not as quick to understand as your senior sister, and you are so slow to learn things..."
"How do you know?" Daju asked curiously. He kept repeating it every day, especially when Xu Zhe had trouble with a move, he would stop him.
"Don't I understand you? If you don't say this, will people be hostile to me?" Xu Chuchu knocked on Daju's head, "But I still like you to praise me."
"Hehe, Chuchu is the best to me." Daju hugged her happily.
…
The dinner was indeed very sumptuous. Even Daju, who always disliked Xu Zhe, temporarily fell silent and continued to eat with a slurp.
Master also got up and had a meal with everyone because of Xu Chuchu's return. Although the future is difficult, everyone is still very happy to reunite today.
The new environment and new people swept away the pain that had been surrounding Xu Chuchu for some time, and she felt unprecedented warmth and comfort.
She regretted not practicing diligently during this period. If she hadn't been distracted by other things, she would have been at least at the fifth level now, and wouldn't have felt so powerless in the face of her master's illness.
"I wonder who this little friend is?" The master looked at Ah Fu who was sitting quietly at the corner of the table eating.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce him. This is my, uh..." Xu Chuchu paused, "My friend, his name is Ah Fu."
"Afu, these are my master and fellow apprentice." She said to Afu again.
"And I'm your cat brother!" Daju added happily.
"Ahfu greets you all." Ahfu stood up and bowed politely to everyone.
Seeing Ah Fu so humble, polite and well-mannered, the master showed a look of pity.
"By the way, Chuchu." She looked at Xu Chuchu, "We've been talking this afternoon. How have you been doing these past few years?"
This question stumped Xu Chuchu.
"As for me..." She tried to say something to get the point across, "Actually, I'm not that bad. I used to work in the village investigating cases for the government. I made some money and came to the capital, and then I met Daju."
"Yeah, she was cheated by a man in love, and I rescued her!" Daju added while eating.
Everyone: “…”
Xu Chuchu: "..." At this moment, she just wanted to twist the big orange cat's head to pieces.
Although, it seems, she was deceived. But why does it sound like she was deceived by online dating and fell into a pig-killing scam? Well, it hasn't come to that yet!
"Were you, cheated?" the master asked with concern, "Chu Chu, are you okay?"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Ah Fu again and looked at him carefully.
Xu Zhe also looked at her with a weird expression.
"Oh, Master, it's not him!" Xu Chuchu held his forehead and hesitated for a while before briefly explaining the matter.
Including the sudden change in the man's temperament during this period and the patterns of the anaconda growing on his body.
"A brocade-scaled anaconda?" The master also put down his chopsticks seriously. "Chu Chu, are you sure you didn't see it wrong? That young man really has a brocade-scaled anaconda, not a dragon or a dragon?"
"There's no mistake. It's the Golden-Scaled Anaconda. His symptoms are also consistent with those of the Golden-Scaled Anaconda." Xu Chuchu asked again, "Master, have you ever seen anyone with the Golden-Scaled Anaconda fate?"
The master shook his head. "I've never seen one. The pattern of a brocade-scaled anaconda is extremely rare, a mutation of a dragon pattern. Dragon patterns are only found in the royal family, and the probability of mutating into a brocade-scaled anaconda is only one in ten million. Even historical records rarely record it. Alas, what a pity for this child. If he hadn't mutated, he would have been a gifted cultivator."
Xu Chuchu lowered her head and ate the rice in the bowl without saying a word.
Daju was dissatisfied: "Master, how can you speak for an outsider? Just because he is sick is not a reason for him to do bad things!"
The master smiled kindly. "I'm not defending him, I'm simply stating the objective facts. No living creature can go against its own nature, just like spiders weave webs, birds migrate, and lions and tigers kill for food... The anaconda's sole purpose is to mate. You may dislike this creature, but you can't say it's evil."
"Of course." She stroked Xu Chuchu's hair gently. "It's right for us to stay away from him. Wolves have their own way of life, and sheep have their own living environment. Sheep cakes can't sacrifice themselves just because they feel sorry for a starving wolf."
Xu Chuchu's heart trembled, but she still muttered softly: "...I'm not a sheep cake."
"Good." The master was amused and smiled. "Master, you described it wrongly. We are not lambs in the sheepfold, but the fastest antelopes on the grassland."
"Aren't cats good!" Big Orange also shouted, "Cats are really powerful when they show their power! They can scratch those hungry wolves to death!"
Everyone was amused again, and even Xu Chuchu took the opportunity to pinch his neck to avenge him for having just informed on the matter.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was joyful, except for Ah Fu, who was feeling sad.
He used to think that the young master's temperament changed drastically because of his illness, but he didn't expect that he couldn't control his behavior from the beginning to the end.
He couldn't forgive the young master on behalf of Miss Xu, but he began to feel pity for him and even wanted to go back to take care of him.
But it's too late now. Not to mention whether the young master will punish him when he returns, he will definitely force him to tell him where Miss Xu is.
I don’t know how the young master is doing now, or what he is doing.
…
As night fell, everyone went to rest.
Originally there were three rooms here, where Master, Xu Zhe and Daju lived respectively.
Now that there are two more people, Xu Chuchu naturally lives in the same room with his master. Ah Fu originally wanted to stay with Xu Zhe, but was forcibly abducted by Daju.
It is said that when he was dragged into the room, tears came out.
The master was not in good health and went to bed after dinner. Xu Chuchu sat on the other side of the room, meditating and practicing while thinking about how to cure the master.
Once she reaches the seventh level, the problem will naturally be solved. However, no matter how talented she is, the process from the fourth level to the seventh level is a long one, and her master may not be able to wait.
Seek help from another seventh-level physiognomist? She knew a ready-made one, a Grand Master, but he seemed hostile to her, so why would he help?
Xu Chuchu was in trouble when the flame of the oil lamp beside her suddenly flickered and a strange vision flickered in the flame.
She knew that someone was using a sound transmission talisman to send her a message. She didn't react for a moment and subconsciously took a piece of scrap paper and put it on the fire to roast.
Soon, familiar handwriting appeared on the scraps of paper.
"sorry."
