Before he could react, Fang Chaozhou started to feel dizzy when he saw the other person.
Only this time, the other person's face appeared in his mind.
Zhongli Yueshui's face really matches that poem -
"Lang Yan is unique, there is no other like him in the world."
Zhongli Yueshui, dressed in white, walked slowly to the young man lying on the ground.
The young man's belt was loose at this time, and his outer robe became tattered because of the white tiger's claws, revealing the white lining underneath. After seeing Zhongli Yueshui, his eyes became blurred. At the same time, because he was caught in such an embarrassing scene by the other party, the young man's fair face couldn't help but turn red.
Fang Chaozhou pinched himself hard, trying to wake himself up, but the closer he got to Zhongli Yueshui, the more dizzy he felt. He couldn't help but look at Zhongli Yueshui.
Especially when he looks at it now, he can still outline the other person's overall appearance in his mind.
"Fang Chaozhou." Zhongli Yueshui's cold voice sounded, "What are you doing?"
Seeing Zhongli Yueshui's face was dizzying enough, and now the opponent's voice appeared, there was no doubt that Chao Zhou was launching a double attack. Fang Chaozhou, feeling dizzy, used all his strength to barely close his eyes, but he could not answer.
"Fang Chaozhou." Zhongli Yueshui's tone contained a warning.
"Reply...Master, I...we didn't do anything." Fang Chaozhou almost bit his tongue until it bled before he stammered out this answer.
I wasn’t that dizzy before, why am I so dizzy today? Could it be because he knew what Zhongli Yueshui looked like?
Upon hearing this, Zhongli Yueshui turned his attention to another place.
The white tiger that had turned into Zhongli Yueshui's appearance has now returned to its original form. It turned into the form of a white cat again, and now it curled up into a ball obediently, not daring to even meow.
"Tubai." Zhongli Yueshui called the white cat's name.
The white cat named Tubai raised his head cautiously and looked at Zhongli Yueshui. Its pair of mandarin duck eyes were now watery and pitiful, without any of the arrogance that had oppressed and bullied Fang Chaozhou before. It meowed twice, and seeing that Zhongli Yueshui's eyes had not eased, it could only say, "Meow, Master Zhongli, we are practicing dual cultivation."
Fang Chaozhou closed his eyes now, and calmed down a little. He heard Tu Bai's words and immediately wanted to explain: "Grandmaster, it's not like that, we didn't..."
"I'm not asking you now, Fang Chaozhou." Zhongli Yueshui glanced at Fang Chaozhou lightly. He didn't even need to cast a silencing spell on Fang Chaozhou. When Fang Chaozhou heard his words, the clarity that he had finally gathered was shattered again and he continued to be unconscious.
Tu Bai looked at the dizzy Fang Chaozhou, hesitated for a moment, and then boldly said to Zhongli Yueshui: "Meow, Master Zhongli, can I practice dual cultivation with him?"
Zhongli Yueshui frowned, remained silent at first, and then refused, "No."
"Meow, why?" Tu Bai said with an aggrieved tone.
"He hasn't accepted you, you can't force him to practice dual cultivation with you." Zhongli Yueshui paused, "Besides, he is not a female beast."
Tubai stood up and took the initiative to run to Zhongli Yueshui, circling around his feet, and said coquettishly: "Meow, I can use your face, he will accept it." Seeing that Zhongli Yueshui's brows were frowning more tightly, it was afraid that he would object, so it pulled at his trouser legs a few more times and called out in a more coquettish voice, "Master Zhongli, I have followed you for almost a thousand years, and I have never liked a female beast. Master, just give him to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the flesh on the back of his neck was pinched and he was caught by Zhongli Yueshui.
Zhongli Yueshui's eyes were very light, almost light gray. He looked at the white cat in his hand coldly, "Tubai, he is a person, not an object. I can't just tell him to give it to you."
Tu Bai Yuanyang looked at Zhongli Yueshui innocently, "If he agrees, can we practice dual cultivation?"
"I don't agree!" Fang Chaozhou, lying on the ground, finally shouted.
Zhongli Yueshui and Tu Bai's eyes fell on Fang Chaozhou at the same time.
Tu Bai looked at the young man on the ground, his tone became very aggrieved, "Why don't you agree? Don't you want to break through the Nascent Soul? I can help you break through the Nascent Soul. I said, if it's not enough, I can take Master Zhongli's essence..."
Its words stopped abruptly.
Zhongli Yueshui's words then rang out, "Fang Chaozhou, there is no shortcut on the road to becoming an immortal."
His words sounded like a warning.
After he finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot with Tu Bai.
Without Zhongli Yueshui, Fang Chaozhou took a while to finally get up from the ground. He looked at his rotten belt and could only pick it up and go back to the courtyard with his coat open.
Fortunately, there were few living people in Huali Mountain, so they couldn't see his miserable appearance.
In the next few days, Tu Bai seemed to have disappeared and never appeared in front of Fang Chaozhou again. Without Tu Bai, Fang Chaozhou fell asleep at dawn every day.
Because he remembered that Tu Bai said Zhongli Yueshui was only free at the hour of Mao, if he was late, he would not have to go to class, so after Fang Chaozhou woke up, he packed up and found a place with abundant spiritual energy to practice on his own.
Days like this are even more pleasant than before.
But the good times did not last long. One day, Fang Chaozhou had not practiced for an hour when he felt an extra weight on his legs. The meowing sound that followed confirmed his bad premonition.
Tu Bai is here again.
The white cat kept stepping on Fang Chaozhou's legs, making purring sounds in its throat. After stepping for a while, it straightened its body, put its paws on Fang Chaozhou's chest, and tried to lift its furry head to touch the other's chin. After touching it, it stretched out its little tongue to lick him.
But after just one lick, Fang Chaozhou raised his head and dodged.
He sighed, opened his eyes, and looked at the white cat staring at him, "Where is the master?"
The white cat flicked its tail and said, "Meow, Master Zhongli left Huali Mountain today and will not be back until tomorrow. I secretly broke through the barrier and got out."
Sure enough, Tubai didn't come to harass him these days because Zhongli Yueshui was taking care of it.
"Meow, Fang Chaozhou, let's practice dual cultivation. We can do it until tomorrow." There was obvious excitement in the white cat's eyes. It was different from the way it always looked at Fang Chaozhou with a bit of ridicule before. Now it looked at Fang Chaozhou as if it had been hungry for more than ten days without eating dried fish.
"No need." Fang Chaozhou used his hand to block the cat's head that was about to lick his chin, "Tubai, if the master knew you sneaked out, he would be angry. You should go back quickly."
He thought that after saying this, the other party would be scared, but he didn't expect that Tu Bai suddenly turned into a white tiger and pressed him to the ground. His mandarin duck eyes became ferocious, "I won't go back. He always beats me now. I can't control what I dream. Whenever I dream, he beats me. I don't want to care about him anymore."
Um?
Fang Chaozhou was stunned for a moment, "What dream?"
Tu Bai heard this, and a look of grievance flashed in the mandarin duck's eyes. It swung its tail and pressed its tiger head against Fang Chaozhou's chest, "I dreamed that I was playing with you, and Lord Zhongli beat me and said that I was shameless and had obscene dreams."
Fang Chaozhou was even more stunned, but he still found something wrong. "You were dreaming, how did he know? Did you tell him about your dream?"
Tu Bai grumbled and turned his head, "My dreams are connected to Master Zhongli's, but Master Zhongli never dreams."
"Wait, your dreams are connected, so what did you dream about?" Fang Chaozhou finally realized the biggest problem.
"Grandmaster?"
The boy's voice barely attracted Zhongli Yueshui's attention. He raised his eyes and looked at the boy in front of him who was as white as snow. Then he realized that he had been distracted. "What's wrong?"
Xue Danrong pursed his lips and said, "Nothing, it's just that Master seems to be absent-minded today."
Zhongli Yueshui's hands moved slightly in his sleeves. "It's just that I haven't rested well recently." He paused and said, "Dan Rong, I think you should wait a little longer before going to the northern border. The northern border is dangerous, and with your current cultivation level, you might get into trouble."
"Grandmaster, I want to go, and Master has already agreed." Xue Danrong said in a firm tone.
"Your master just spoils you too much, you and Fang Chaozhou too. Both of you are a worry." Zhongli Yueshui's face turned cold, but Xue Danrong did not give up the idea of going to the northern border after hearing his words. Instead, he asked a question.
"Second Brother...did our master displease him in Huali Mountain?" Xue Danrong asked with a cautious look in his eyes.
Zhongli Yueshui lowered his eyes and stood up. "No, it's just that he cultivates too slowly. It's not even half a year yet, so you'd better not think too much about him. As for the matter of the North, I still say the same thing, I don't agree with you going. If you must go, go after half a year."
After he said that, he turned around and left.
Xue Danrong stared at Zhongli Yueshui's back, and the color in his phoenix eyes quietly deepened.
This was the first time that the master walked away in front of him. Was it because he was angry that he was going to the North, or was it something else?
Zhongli Yueshui jumped off the golden-winged bird and went straight to the south of Huali Mountain, where the spiritual energy was most abundant. He knew that Fang Chaozhou would practice there.
But in a moment, he had reached the south. After walking a few steps forward, he saw a man and a tiger.
The young man in a thin inner garment was lying on the white tiger, his black hair scattered and his face peaceful, as if he had fallen asleep. The white tiger, which he was resting on, was also sleeping soundly with its belly turned over, its eyes curved into a line.
A tattered coat was thrown next to them.
Zhongli Yueshui frowned and continued to walk forward slowly. His footsteps startled the young man who was taking a nap on the white tiger. The young man opened his eyes dazedly and saw the man coming from afar. He was stunned at first, and then began to feel dizzy.
I wanted to stand up and salute the other party, but now I can only continue to lie on the white tiger.
"Fang Chaozhou." Zhongli Yueshui stopped in front of the young man.
Fang Chaozhou gritted his teeth and managed to utter, "Master."
The sound was faint, like the meow of a kitten.
Zhongli Yueshui looked down at the young man lying on the white tiger. After a while, he leaned over slightly and grabbed the other's wrist.
