You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

In the following days, Master Qijun stayed on the top of the mountain to instruct Xia Yu and Wan Yu in setting up the formation.

When he had free time, he would tell Shi Xiaoliu and the other three some interesting things about cultivation, and also talk about people and things in other sects.

With the presence of Master Qijun, the bustle at the foot of the mountain is no longer bustling. It is not as bustling as what Master Qijun saw and heard when he was young.

When the New Year came, Qijun Zhenren encouraged Shi Xiaoliu and the other three: "You are at the right age to play, so go to Yangzhou Prefecture and play.

Everyone should dress nicely. It’s New Year’s Day and the streets are filled with joy. The four of you won’t be noticeable.”

Wanyu was immediately delighted when she heard Master Qijun's words, and she pulled Shi Zelan and said, "Sister Lan, we can wear women's clothes now."

Shi Zelan saw the excitement in Wanyu's eyes, then looked down at the clothes she was wearing for convenience.

She decided immediately: "Okay, let's wear women's clothes and go to Yangzhou Prefecture."

Shi Zelan turned around and changed into the sect's clothes. She waved her long sleeves, exuding a free and easy temperament.

Upon seeing this, Wanyu clapped her hands and changed into the sect’s clothes.

But after she took out the water mirror and looked at herself, she said to Shi Zelan with some regret: "Sister Lan, I am just too pretty. I can't wear this dress to compete with you."

Shi Zelan looked at Wanyu and said, "It looks good. Our sect's clothes look very good no matter who wears them."

“Of course, it’s just that you wear the deity style, and I wear the sect beauty girl style.

Lan Jie'er, you should smile more often, so that when we stand together, others won't be able to tell who is older and who is younger."

Shi Zelan grinned at her: "Laugh like this?
I can.”

"Don't, if you smile like that, people will think I'm forcing you to do something you don't want to do."

"Hahaha."

Master Qijun was listening to what they said and felt amused.

Wanyu turned around and changed into a gorgeous robe. When Master Qijun saw her, he said, "Okay, you can go out like this."

"Uncle Master, Wanyu and I can't go down the mountain like this. It will cause misunderstandings."

As Shi Zelan spoke, she turned around and changed back into her previous outfit.

Xia Yu listened to Shi Zelan and said, “Yes, let’s just go down the mountain like before.

When we get to Yangzhou Prefecture, we won’t make any decorations and will celebrate the New Year in style.”

Shi Xiaoliu nodded in agreement and explained to Master Qijun: "Uncle Master, there are no outstanding people around here. If we stand out too much, it will not be good."

"Okay, you guys should learn from Wanyu and follow your heart."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two agreed, and Wanyu said with some pride: "Master, I have told them before that we practitioners should learn to enjoy life in time."

Master Qijun glanced at Wanyu, then waved at Shi Xiaoliu and the other three: "Let's go, Wanyu is too talkative."

After the four of them went out from the back mountain, Master Qijun stood directly on the edge of the mountain.

On New Year's Day, Master Qijun thought that no one would come to climb the mountain, but four young scholars came to climb the mountain that morning.

Master Qijun watched the four scholars go up the mountain in high spirits, and then he went straight back to his room.

Shi Xiaoliu and his three companions had already entered Yangzhou Prefecture in the morning. They found a sparsely populated alley and changed their clothes.

They immediately returned to their appearance in the sect. Shi Xiaoliu, Shi Zelan and Xia Yu wore the sect's clothes.

After seeing this, Wanyu did not bother to change into other clothes and just wore the sect's clothes.

But after they walked out of the alley, Shi Xiaoliu could not see his own face because of the eyes of people around him.

When Shi Zelan saw this, she reached out and wiped her face, and her appearance was no longer as beautiful as before.

Wanyu was quite proud of the admiration from the crowd, but when she turned around and saw Shi Xiaoliu and the other two, she immediately became angry. "You are going too far. Originally, everyone on the street couldn't compare to our beauty. Now that you've done this, only the robes on your body are eye-catching."

Wanyu complained while blurring her own face.

Shi Zelan looked at her, then looked at the eyes of the people around her, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Wanyu calmly and said, "You can also insist on not making any changes."

"Humph, I just want to be like you."

After walking around the street for a while, the four of them went straight to the teahouse to sit down. However, after they sat there for a while, someone came over and started chatting with them.

"Are you from the underworld?"

"No."

Wanyu answered the visitor very straightforwardly.

"Then why are you wearing the same clothes?"

“We just like this style of clothes.”

Wanyu continued to reply, and Shi Zelan looked up at the person asking the question impatiently: "Do you have anything else to say?

If we were people from the underworld, would we allow you to ask us questions again and again?"

The person asking the question turned away, and Wanyu said to Shi Zelan, "Sister, I told you to take the maids with you, but you refused.

Others ask questions out of curiosity, but you are impatient to listen. "

Shi Zelan glanced at her, stood up and said, "Brother, let's go and find a place to drink a pot of tea quietly."

She took them away, and Shi Xiaoliu and the other two naturally followed them out of the teahouse.

The people in the teahouse said to the person asking the question, "You are so brave."

“I can tell they are not gangsters.

However, that young lady has a really bad temper, and I don’t know if she has settled on a marriage yet.”

Shi Xiaoliu and the other three naturally heard the gossip in the teahouse, but they had no intention of paying attention to these trivial matters.

The streets were much busier than usual, and women and children came out to play.

Shi Xiaoliu and his three companions walked on the busy street and gradually became less noticeable.

They entered a clothing store, and under Wanyu's encouragement, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two each picked out a set of clothes.

The host's wife was very happy. She said a long string of congratulations to them and then gave them four more lucky bags.

When the four of them were walking out, the lady of the host's house sent them to the door of the store and kept saying, "Come back next time. There will be new styles of clothes after the New Year."

Wanyu turned around and smiled at the Dong family's wife. The Dong family's wife covered her chest and said, "This little girl looks so beautiful when she smiles."

At 3 p.m., when they were leaving the city gate, they already felt someone following them.

After the four of them exchanged glances, they walked leisurely on the official road. After a while, they turned directly to the nearest small road.

They took shelter at the corner of the road, while the six vagabonds entered the alley.

The two in front looked down the path and said in surprise, "They turned a corner just now."

"Ma San, Ma Si, it's impossible, they are not walking fast."

"If you don't believe me, come and see. There is nothing in front of you." (End of this chapter)
