Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 239 Brother He doesn’t like taking a bath (5k subscription required!!)
This valley was densely covered with tall trees, with huge treetops crowded together. Although it was clearly daytime, walking at the bottom of the valley felt like a cloudy evening.

However, light was not important to You Su, as he had long been accustomed to relying on his spiritual sense to walk. However, there was too much water at the bottom of the valley, and there were countless small puddles that were difficult to see with the naked eye, which had stained their clothes, shoes and socks with a lot of mud.

He Kongyue didn't care, but carefully knocked on the ground with a small jade hammer and a compass. Sometimes he frowned, and sometimes he relaxed.

He enjoyed exploring back and forth at the bottom of the valley. You Su could not help, but was embarrassed to stand by and do nothing. He could only take out his oil-paper umbrella and follow He Kongyue, shielding him from the accumulated rain falling from the treetops.

After several confirmations, the sky had completely darkened, and He Kongyue finally showed joy:

"Yes, it is basically certain that the tomb of Venerable Chengying is right below!"

"It really is effortless to get it." You Su also laughed.

"Of course it didn't take much effort, Brother You." He Kongyue casually found a stone to sit on.

You Su looked a little embarrassed and explained:

"I don't mean to deny Brother He's hard work, but the Ye family worked so hard to find the tomb of Venerable Chengying, but in the end it was us who got the advantage."

"The Ye family has sword cultivators, but Ye Erong is not one of them. I think her reason for coming here is similar to mine, both of us are here to seek excitement. The opportunity of sword cultivation is probably not that important to her. The Ye family went to great lengths to protect the little princess purely for her happiness."

He Kongyue took out the water bag from his Qiankun bag, took a gulp, and the water drops slid down his fair neck. He then smiled and said to You Su:

"People like us are well protected, and we won't give up any chance to seek excitement easily. It's not easy to be a young master or young lady in Henggao City. Those people outside the mountain look down on us and think we are just playboys, but in fact, they know they are hitting a wall when they provoke us. Look, this Chunchan is probably still being stopped outside the valley by Ye Erong."

You Su deeply agreed with this statement. The children of such a prominent family have sufficient family background to support them, and their knowledge and experience are also extraordinary. Even if their talents are not as good as some geniuses, they can at least be stable in the first echelon, and this is also the reason why a family can last for a long time.

"We have taken advantage of Miss Ye."

You Su also sat on the stone. Above the sky, the stars and the moon gradually rose.

"Why, do you feel you've treated someone unfairly and want to make amends?"

He Kongyue glanced at You Su and continued:
"Ye Erong looks pretty good, a bit like your junior sister, but of course she is not as good as your junior sister. Her personality is similar, but she is more arrogant and brainless. However, her background is much better than that of a second daughter of a fallen snake clan, so she is still very cost-effective."

"Brother He is interested?"

You Su asked even though he knew the answer.

He Kongyue held his forehead and smiled, saying:
"Whether I like her or not is not the point, at least she definitely doesn't like me. The three major immortal families are fighting overtly and covertly, and no one is willing to submit to the other. Intermarriage between the three families is rare. If I hadn't spoken out to save her, I guess Ye Erong wouldn't even call me Brother He."

His words had a meaningful meaning. Ye Erong might not call him, but the voice of "Brother You Su" was very sweet.

"In that case, there is nothing to owe. Brother He helped her avoid the love disaster, and she returned the information to us. Neither of us owes anything to each other." You Su was very rational.

"Is your junior sister so good?" He Kongyue asked curiously.

"Even if Ye Erong is the daughter of heaven, she is definitely not as good as my junior sister." You Su answered truthfully to prevent He Kongyue from making fun of him for having fallen in love with someone else.

"Then...is your junior sister better, or is your senior sister better?" He Kongyue smiled playfully.

You Su's expression was slightly stiff. This was undoubtedly a fatal question. He Kongyue should have seen that he and his junior sister had a special relationship. His question was to test You Su's attitude towards Fairy Wangshu.

"They treat me better than I treat them."

You Su did not give a direct answer, but lowered his posture. He Kongyue understood what he meant and curled his lips, because You Su's words had already answered his question.

"Although Brother You is blind, his vision is actually higher than anyone else's."

"I just... am more grateful for what has been done to me."

You Su was still a little embarrassed to admit to others that he was a passionate man, especially with the previous experience of Chun Chan.

But You Su still felt that he was different from Chun Chan. After all, being amorous did not mean being promiscuous, and he would never abandon anyone he cherished.

He Kongyue looked at You Su's embarrassment and couldn't help laughing, "Brother You is right, you are indeed a person who knows how to repay kindness, otherwise why would you come to the He family to look for someone you can't find."

You Su smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything else, trying to end the topic.

Just at this moment, a gentle breeze blew by, blowing off the remaining rain from the trees.

You Su held an umbrella while complaining, "It's windy in the valley, not only is it cold, but the rain hasn't dried yet. It's hard to hide under a tree for the night. Why don't we go out first?"

He Kongyue stretched out his hand and held it in the air, as if thinking.

You Su didn't understand what he meant, but he knew that He Kongyue must have noticed something, so he waited quietly.

"Brother You, did you feel that the wind just now was different from the previous wind?"

You Su recalled carefully, frowned and said: "It's even more gloomy."

"That's right..."

He Kongyue looked at his palm, where a strand of hair was fluttering in the wind.

"The Lingxu Mountains block the cold wind blowing from Beiaozhou. The valley we are in is also a gap between the mountains, so the wind should be blowing from the north to the south. But the wind just now... didn't seem to be blowing in this direction..."

You Su also became serious, "Brother He, do you mean that there is another source of wind in this place?"

"It shouldn't be wrong. It can't be an evil wind blowing randomly. I even feel that it is the wind blowing from the tomb of Master Chengying!"

You Su took a deep breath, and his nostrils were filled with the smell of damp earth, and it seemed... there was also a very faint smell of decay?
You Su was not sure whether this was just his own psychological effect or if it was really true:
"Could it be that the tomb was opened ahead of time?"

"Brother You, have you ever had the experience of looking for opportunities in the wild before?"

Yousu shook his head.

"It's true that the tomb's restriction has not dissipated, but that doesn't mean the gate is closed. It's just that the monks need to rely on the moment when the restriction dissipates to determine the exact location of the tomb. If you knew it in advance, why wait for the restriction to dissipate?"

He Kongyue explained to You Su, and then added, "Even if this wind source is not the destination of this trip, it is probably a cave or cellar. It is better to go in and rest than to climb out through mountains and rivers, and then climb back in again tomorrow."

You Su thought so too. How many people in this world would live to see the day when the restrictions on him were lifted?

"Then let's go find it."

He Kongyue poured a basin of cold water on You Su, "I don't know when this wind will blow again. Maybe we need to search for a whole night. Be prepared."

You Su took out a formation plate from his Qiankun bag. It was the Wind Weasel Formation Plate that he had used to help Ji Xueruo find a way out at the bottom of the Yuhuan Pool.

"It doesn't matter. With it, I'll definitely find it."

You Su handed the Wind Weasel Formation Plate to He Kongyue, who took it with a slightly stunned expression. It was not because of the precious magic weapon in his hand, but because You Su could give it to him without any scruples, as if he regarded him as a trustworthy friend...

Beyond the valley.

Chun Chan knew that he could not break through this line of defense, so he left long ago to find another entrance.

Ye Erong sat in the small palace that her servants had built for her, roasting the fire and drinking hot milk tea. This was a new drink in Henggao City, made from goat milk and fragrant tea, and was very popular among young women.

She put down the tea bowl with satisfaction, and an old servant behind her asked:

"Miss, are you really going to give up this opportunity?"

"No, the tomb hasn't been opened yet. It's okay to reveal something to He Kongyue in advance. We will still start from the same starting line. Besides, didn't he help us see the true face of Chunchan?"

Ye Erong didn't care. "My father wanted me to obtain the Immortal Sword so that I could become the disciple of the Lotus Sword Master. Then wouldn't it be better if I could just turn the disciple of the Lotus Sword Master into my husband?"

He Shutong recently accepted two disciples, giving many sword practitioners in the outside world the illusion that Master Lianjian was about to open up more disciples.

The old servant sighed quietly, saying that his young lady was good in every way except that she loved reading love novels too much.

"Oh, by the way, the valley is windy and flooded, it must be uncomfortable. You should find them and have them stay in the camp with us."

Ye Erong held her cheeks with her hands, her face full of anticipation.

The old servant paused and said, "When the two of them entered the valley, I sent people to follow them, but... they were lost."

"Lost?!"

Ye E stood up in shock, "No, I have to go find them!"

The old servant quickly grabbed the willful young lady and said:

"Miss, don't worry. Those two are not ordinary people. It's not our turn to worry when they are in danger."

"Why isn't it my turn? I am anxious if you are not!"

Ye Erong was almost dying of anxiety, but the old servant had his own plans:
"This is an opportunity given to him by the young lady. If he doesn't have the ability to take it, it means he is not worthy of it."

Ye Erong rolled her eyes. In fact, she wanted to say that the face alone was enough, and cultivation ability was secondary. But she couldn't say this in front of the elders of the clan, as it would make her look superficial.

She thought for a moment, then said:

"Then keep an eye on the surroundings and stop outsiders. No one is allowed to approach until the ban is lifted, especially the spring cicada!" "Yes."

……

"Brother He, you really found it!"

You Su stood outside a stone wall. He could clearly feel a weak breeze blowing out from the cracks in the stone.

"It's all thanks to your Wind Weasel Array Plate."

Having said that, He Kongyue smiled and returned the formation plate to You Su.

You Su held the formation plate in his hands and couldn't help but think back to the days when he and Ji Xueruo went on adventures.

I don't know if she is safe now, if the snake clan is doing well, and if they have forgotten him...

He shook his head in his heart. It was impossible for him to forget that unforgettable reincarnation. He shouldn't have distrusted that arrogant girl.

"It seems that Brother You's Wind Weasel Formation Plate has a long history."

He Kongyue squinted her eyes and with the light of the night pearl, she could see the melancholy look on You Su's face, as if he was reminiscing about someone.

"This is a gift from the fourth elder of Xuanxiao Sect."

He Kongyue raised his beautiful black eyebrows, and seeing that You Su didn't want to say more, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Try to move these rocks."

When it came to the hard work, You Su, who had not been doing anything, naturally could not continue paddling, and started moving stones with He Kongyue.

This layer of soil is more fragile than You Su thought. It doesn't seem to have any signs of human reinforcement. It is more like a pile of soil that has accumulated naturally over thousands of years.

Soon, a slightly narrow crack in the rock appeared.

He Kongyue seemed very excited. He first reached his hand in to take a look, and found that the road ahead was indeed open. He then volunteered to be the first to crawl into the crevice, and You Su followed closely behind.

The crevice was only about half the width of a person, so they had to lean sideways to enter. The stone wall was also covered in wet mud, which made the two people look from sloppy to dirty.

Fortunately, the cracks in the rocks become wider as you go deeper, until at the end, they become clear.

"I don't know how this crack was formed." He Kongyue marveled secretly. Even though he was covered in mud, the feeling of novelty outweighed his worries.

"Perhaps it's because of the changes in the world that the two mountains have been squeezed together." You Su explained casually.

The two of them continued to move forward together. With the night pearl, it was indeed much more convenient, and they could see the entire cave clearly.

Unfortunately, there was nothing here except an underground river. It was indeed a naturally formed cave. There was a crack at the end of the cave, but it was completely inaccessible. The wind with a different direction also blew from the crack. He Kongyue guessed that this cave should really be a crack formed by the fusion of two mountains, and the wind came from the other side of the mountain.

"It seems like all my excitement was in vain." He Kongyue sighed.

"Can you call it a chance if it's so easy to find?" You Su consoled him, "At least we found a place to stay, which is better than being outside in the north wind and rain."

"Brother You is quite open-minded. That's right, we will wait here. Once the restriction of the tomb is broken, I will see who can be faster than us."

He Kongyue said this and sat down on the ground, without any sense of loss.

He was quick to learn and immediately took out food from his Qiankun bag and shared it with You Su.

The two of them ate and talked, and time flew by. You Su sat on the ground, feeling more and more unhappy.

It's because your body is covered with wet mud and your clothes are half wet and half dry, sticking to your body and it's very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, there is a hidden river here. You Su originally wanted to take a bath there, but was worried that something might happen. The two of them had been sitting there for so long without any accidents, so taking a bath should be okay, right?

"Brother You, do you want to pee?"

He Kongyue looked a little unnatural when he saw You Su actually starting to unbuckle his belt in front of him.

You Su was unable to practice fasting, so naturally he had to eliminate impurities, but the frequency was still less than that of ordinary people.

"Oh no, I already solved it when I was outside just now."

"Then what are you..."

"Take a shower. I'm all sticky and dirty, and it's really uncomfortable to rest. I might as well take a shower and change clothes."

You Su kept talking and moving, and in a few seconds most of his khaki outer robe was taken off, leaving only a single piece of clothing.

He Kongyue glanced at the clear river water and couldn't think of any reason to stop You Su, not to mention that he was covered in mud.

"Brother He, do you want to join us?"

You Su invited enthusiastically, "I really didn't lie to you, taking a cold shower has a unique flavor."

"Ah? I don't have to... I'll wash it now, but I'll have to get it dirty again when I go out of that hole tomorrow."

He Kongyue lowered his head slightly and did not look at You Su's strong upper body.

"We have already scraped off a layer of dirt when we came in, so we will definitely not be as disheveled as when we came in when we go out. And even if we get dirty when we go out, we will always feel fresher if we take a shower now."

You Su tried to persuade her kindly, but he thought He Kongyue's reason was totally unreasonable. According to him, people would always be dirty, so wouldn't that mean they would never have to take a bath?

He Kongyue frowned, thinking to himself, did you run a bathhouse in Izumo City before? Why do you like to persuade people to take a bath so much?

"Haha, that's not necessary. I'm not that dirty..."

He Kongyue laughed it off but still declined politely.

"Since Brother He doesn't like to take a bath, I won't force you."

He Kongyue lowered his head and raised his eyebrows when he heard the words.

What does this blind man mean? Does he think I am not clean?

He actually raised his head and explained:

"It's not that I don't like taking baths, I'm just used to taking tea and milk baths at home, and I'm not used to taking them outside."

As soon as he finished speaking, his pupils widened instantly. You Su actually took off his underwear in front of him!
Suddenly, he seemed to see a huge black dragon sleeping.

He Kongyue's face turned red instantly, and he tried hard to suppress the trembling of his body.

"I see. Then I'll have to trouble Brother He to keep watch for me. Don't let any passing female cultivators see me."

You Su then realized that he had misunderstood the other party, and quickly told a joke to ease the embarrassment, then jumped into the water with a splash.

Who would have thought that after these words came out, He Kongyue clenched his teeth, stood up and said:

"It just so happens that I need to relieve myself, I'll go outside the cave and keep watch for you."

Yusu often took ice baths when he was in Izumo Castle, so he quickly adapted to the water temperature. He joked:

"I thought Brother He didn't need to release the water."

Because every time You Su asked him to go out to relieve himself, He Kongyue politely declined. He thought that He Kongyue's realm was close to that of Huayu, so he almost didn't need to go to the toilet.

Noticing the other party's hurried departure, You Su advised again:

"It's so troublesome to go in and out. Brother He, just do it inside the cave. I don't mind."

"You don't mind, but I do!"

He Kongyue squeezed into the gap with a rare angry tone.

You Su felt strange. Was it his words "Brother He doesn't like to take a bath" that hurt him?

However, You Su took a very quick shower. Not long after he finished, He Kongyue came back.

You Su estimated the time and thought that Brother He must have been holding his pee for a long time.

This is also a very common phenomenon for monks at a high level. Some people will go into seclusion for ten days or half a month, and they will not defecate or urinate during this period. Once they come out, they have to vent a lot.

After coming back, He Kongyue just chatted for a few words and then began to meditate with his eyes closed.

Of course You Su felt embarrassed to disturb the other party, so he also closed his eyes and recalled the sword that assassinated Huo Yuandi the night before.

After being immersed in swordsmanship for a long time, You Su was suddenly awakened by a slight sound of water.

Loud...

Is this someone taking a shower?
