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

Chapter 359: Three Wonders in the Life of Beasts
Kongyuan Sacred Mountain is famous because there is a vast expanse of empty plains beneath the huge snow-capped mountain.

This name fits the temperament of Beiaozhou very well.

Someone once estimated the size of the five continents, and Zhongyuan Continent was the largest, but it also had the largest population. Beiao Continent, as the second largest continent, had a smaller population than Dongying Continent, where the demon race lived.

Therefore, emptiness and wildness are the first impressions that Beiaozhou gives people.

The journey from the northernmost Arctic City in Beiaozhou to the Kongyuan Divine Mountain is very long. Moreover, You Su's situation is special, so he dare not show up and has to travel in a low profile.

He was still dressed in the same attire that concealed his true identity, leaving one footprint after another in the snow.

Bai Ze turned into a pocket-sized little white cat and curled up in his arms, occasionally poking his little head out to look around, his pair of small eyes rolling around, looking at this strange world curiously.

The wind was cold and snowflakes were flying. The sky and earth of Beiaozhou were covered in silver, as beautiful as a painting.

You Su tightened his fur robe and squeezed the white cat out:

"Come out and get big for me to ride."

Bai Ze rolled swiftly in the snow and immediately stopped falling.

Hearing You Su's words, Bai Ze angrily blew at You Su:

"You're the only one who wants to ride me? Why don't you let me?"

You Su thought for a moment and said, "Let's take turns. You ride me for a while, and I ride you for a while. This is fair."

Bai Ze shook his head, "Do you think I'm a stupid pig? How fast I ride you, how slow you ride me? I'm losing money!"

"Then don't get on me, you're dirty." You Su said with disgust.

In fact, You Su also knew that he couldn't let Bai Ze change back to his original form and let him ride on the road. Whether or not the beast recognized him was only a secondary reason. The more important reason was that it would be too conspicuous. Bai Ze was a household name in Bei Aozhou. If he was spotted by others, it would easily lead to unnecessary trouble. This was obviously not what the man and the beast wanted to see.

Bai Ze looked at his hair after hearing this, and licked it twice to fix it. But the dirt on his body had accumulated for many years, and it was impossible to lick it clean in a short time.

“You make it sound like you’re very clean.” Bai Ze rolled his eyes and then leisurely followed at You Su’s feet.

Although it was as bright as day, it was actually still before dawn in Zhongyuan Continent, so there was not a single person to be seen on this road, which was already sparsely populated.

This also made Bai Ze relax a lot, and he dared to jump out of You Su's arms and walk around on his own.

"I have to find a place to take a shower." You Su murmured.

When in Zhongyuan Continent, because he had to practice sword and "sword" every day, he would bathe every day regardless of winter or summer to ensure his body was clean. There was a fire talisman formation and hot water was always available, and the clear mountain spring water was inexhaustible, so bathing was something that You Su was used to.

But since I jumped into the sea, I haven't taken a bath for more than a month. When I was in the Xuesang tribe, fire and candles were scarce resources, so how could I afford to boil water for bathing frequently? When I arrived at the North Pole City, I didn't enjoy it for long because of unexpected changes. I had to travel again.

"What is a bath?"

"Boil a bucket of hot water, soak in it, apply soap to your body and wash it clean. This is called a bath," You Su explained.

"Won't he drown?" Bai Ze had never seen so much water before.

"A saint once said that taking a bath is one of the three greatest pleasures in the world. So as long as you are uncomfortable enough to pass out, you won't drown in the bath water."

"Is he that powerful..." Bai Ze looked at him disdainfully and asked again: "Which saint is it?"

Bai Ze was very curious about the saint that You Su mentioned, because even he himself had overheard from those who had gone to Cangshan Mountain to pray for blessings in the past that Bai Ze was the divine beast that would be born when a saint descended to the world.

Although it knew that it was born on the top of Cangshan Mountain in such a beautiful and innocent way and had nothing to do with the so-called saint, it was still full of interest in the word "saint".

"It's me." You Su answered without any shame.

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Ze was so angry that his left leg went limp and he fell facefirst into the snow.

I thought to myself, if you were the saint who brought me here, I would want to burrow back into the ground.

It quickly shook its head and said, "There are so many people who come to my house to pray for blessings, but this is the first time I've seen someone as shameless as you."

You Su ignored it.

After walking for a while, Bai Ze felt extremely bored, so he could only temporarily assume that You Su was the saint in order to chat and relieve his boredom:

"What are the other two beautiful things?"

"Have a meal."

"Yeah! That's right! That's right!" Bai Ze nodded his head briskly, and very rarely expressed his extreme agreement with You Su's words, "What about the other one?"

"sleep."

"That's right! It seems that you really have the qualities of a saint!" Bai Ze jumped up happily, thinking that You Su was really amazing, and he actually guessed all the things he liked, such as eating and sleeping, except for taking a bath.

You Su did not show much joy, but just glanced back at it and asked calmly:

"Is there a Gong Baize in this world?"

Bai Ze tilted his head slightly and said blankly: "Maybe. Why are you asking this?"

"The sleeping I'm talking about is not the sleeping you understand. When you find a male Bai Ze, you'll know what I mean." You Su kept walking.

Bai Ze stood there in confusion, "Don't keep me in suspense!"

But You Su just ignored him.

The cold wind was howling, and You Su couldn't help shivering even though he was wearing animal skins.

Bai Ze took advantage of the situation and suggested:

"Why don't we turn back? Otherwise, it will take a long time to get to the next town... We need to rest well so that we can have the strength to continue on our journey. You can also take a shower. By the way, just prepare two bear paws for me, and they must be hot."

Bear paws are rare even in Northern Aozhou. A few days ago, Bai Ze traveled with the people of Xuesang tribe, and naturally gave it the best ones to eat. Bai Ze, who had been eating meat in the cave for thirty years and only occasionally ate meat, was also shocked. He didn't expect that the bear meat after roasting was so much better than raw. It was like opening the door to a new world for him.

"It was me who killed the city lord, not you." You Su replied coldly.

Traveling in the snow is a boring thing. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired of it. Bai Ze walked around You Su's legs to find some fun.

You Su deliberately paused suddenly, causing Bai Ze to hit his heel hard.

Bai Ze walked away cursing, rubbing his furry forehead with his paws, and said disdainfully:
"You talk as if it's so great. You're so proud of yourself for killing a cultivator of the same realm that your tail is sticking up to the sky." You Su was also dazed when he heard it, and didn't care about Bai Ze's ridicule at all.

He is now roughly certain that he has reached the upper level of Condensed Water, but there was a time when this realm was something he could not even dream of.

When he was in Izumo City, he thought that City Lord Liu, who had reached the perfect state of Condensing Water, was the strongest person in the city. However, he did not expect that after nearly a year, he would have reached the same realm as the then city lord.

If he were still in Xuanxiao Sect, if he wanted, he could even go to a remote town and become a city lord like them.

But he was just a lone traveler in a strange land.

Wait... doesn't that mean his realm has already caught up with the master? !
"You are a mountain spirit born from Cangshan Mountain, why are you so weak?" You Su asked curiously.

Bai Ze was so angry that even his beard stood up. "I'm just tired! Otherwise, I would eat you!"

You Su complained: "You said you are a mountain spirit, but I guess Cangshan himself doesn't want to admit it."

Bai Ze was so angry that he grabbed You Su's calf and wanted to bite him hard, but there was only thick animal skin where he could bite, and he couldn't hurt You Su at all.

"Stop meddling in other people's business! I'm just enduring this!"

You Su, however, revealed the little beast's disguise in one sentence: "When you entered the cave, your eyes were scarlet. But until now, your eyes have never changed color. Why?"

Bai Ze paused, but You Su had no intention of waiting for him. Or rather, You Su, who was on his own way, didn't take this matter seriously at all.

Bai Ze quickly followed, lowering his head a little:
"Actually... I seem to know that I was deceived by those people..."

"Well, I don't think you are that stupid." You Su said casually.

Bai Ze was furious, but helpless: "They left a lot of food for me, just like the people who came to me to pray for blessings before, asking me to protect the big rocks. They said so well, and the food was so delicious, of course I agreed... But I found that I was getting more and more irritable and lazy. I used to hunt in the mountains frequently, but later I just wanted to stay in the cave. I sleep when I'm hungry, and I'm hungry when I wake up. Slowly, I even have no strength..."

"It's Soft God Powder." You Su quickly gave the answer. "This is a drug that human cultivators often use when hunting large spiritual beasts. They will inject Soft God Powder into the prey that these spiritual beasts like to eat. When the spiritual beasts are feasting, the Soft God Powder will wear down the spirit beasts' will and strength, allowing them to capture them easily."

"Then why don't they come and arrest me?"

"You can't tame spirit beasts with the Soft God Powder. This powder is used to hunt spirit beasts and take away the precious materials from them. But because you are Bai Ze, they dare not kill you, they can only lie to you."

"Oh……"

Bai Ze said "oh" and remained silent for a long time.

It was very angry about being deceived, but also felt helpless about losing its power. It was really a bad mountain spirit to be deceived so easily.

"Soft God Powder is not poison. Practice well and don't touch that thing again. You will have a chance to regain your strength." You Su appeared to be indifferent to his only companion on this long journey, but he was actually gentle.

"Really?!" Bai Ze was very excited. "That's right! You said they don't dare to kill me, so can I go crazy in front of them?!"

You Su turned around and looked at the white and gray kitten as if it were a fool, then lifted it by the scruff of the neck and stuffed it back into his arms.

"Even a desperate dog will jump over the wall, let alone a human being."

You Su patted Bai Ze's round head and said, "But if the rumors about Bai Ze not being able to be killed are true, when you really meet someone you must kill, you can crash into his sword yourself. Although this method is a bit stupid, it is a way to die together after all."

"do not want!"

Bai Ze shook his head. It was not afraid of the cold, but it also did not dislike warm places, and You Su's arms were especially warm. Although this human was annoying, it was as warm as a small fire.

"I'm just saying it. I just want to scare them when I can't beat them. I'm not really going to die."

Survival is the instinct of animals, and spiritual animals are no exception. Even if they become spiritual animals, the nature of cherishing life is engraved in their bones.

"Then hide well. There's a house ahead, don't expose yourself."

You Su stuffed Bai Ze's head in.

……

The sunlight penetrated the clouds and dappled onto the village, adding a touch of warm color to this quiet place.

You Su looked around and confirmed that this place was deserted and a village that had been abandoned long ago.

This is not a rare thing. After all, in this snowy and icy place, everyone would like to go a little south.

After making sure that there was no one around, You Su, who hadn't had a good rest for a long time, found a room that looked the most complete and walked in.

Fortunately, there was still some unused firewood and some daily necessities that could not be taken away.

The most life-saving thing is probably the round bathtub.

You Su found a purpose, so he went outside and shoveled the snow and poured it all into the bucket.

Use the pyrotechnics to light the firewood, and the snow will gradually melt into water.

It took You Su some effort to take off his clothes. He was shivering with cold, but after getting into the hot water bucket, he felt alive again. A warm current rose from the soles of his feet and quickly spread throughout his body, taking away the fatigue and coldness along the way.

Bai Ze walked along the edge of the bucket and said in amazement, "Are you going to cook yourself?"

But the next moment, You Su dragged it into the bathtub.

Bai Ze splashed water and resisted instinctively, like a good lady being forced.

But soon, the good lady stopped struggling under the massage of the 'experienced' villain.

Its eyes were wide open, feeling the comfort brought by the hot water. This was a wonderful feeling that Bai Ze, who had been in the cold weather for many years, had never experienced before. Its head was dizzy, and half of its tongue unconsciously stuck out of its lips.

"Hey, is it cooked?"

You Su shook Bai Ze, but Bai Ze, who was immersed in the enjoyment, didn't bother to pay attention to him. He simply closed his eyes and enjoyed this rare comfort. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at You Su with a satisfied look.

"You're right." Bai Ze's voice was lazily filled with praise, "You really are a saint who understands the hearts of animals! The three great things in an animal's life are eating, sleeping, and taking a bath!"

You Su laughed in silence, the man and the beast were bathing quietly in the tub, with only the sound of water and the occasional sound of wind around them. This tranquility made You Su feel particularly peaceful, he closed his eyes and let his thoughts drift in his mind.

Suddenly, You Su opened his eyes because he heard the rustling sound of footsteps in the snow coming from outside the door.
