From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 144: The truncated fourteenth floor [Long chapter, please subscribe! ]

A few months ago, Wang Shuhuan was still a high school student who was repeatedly warned by his teachers and parents not to fall in love too early. The word "marriage" seemed a bit far away for him.

He thought for a long time and asked doubtfully: "Sister Xu, you are so beautiful and still young, why are you in such a hurry to get married?"

Facing Wang Shuhuan's sincere praise, Xu Yihe was a little happy at first, but then he glared at Wang Shuhuan and said angrily: "I can't explain it to you!"

Wang Shuhuan didn't understand, but he knew that Xu Yihe didn't want to get married, she really didn't want to get married.

So when he came to eastern Guangdong and saw Xu Yihe at Fushun Manor, he didn't know what touched his heart when he saw Xu Yihe's pitiful plea, and he actually kidnapped Xu Yihe out of the manor.

Thinking about it now, Wang Shuhuan also feels that his behavior was too bold.

To some extent, this is already considered trafficking a girl. What if the Xu family or the Tian family calls the police...

Wang Shuhuan also came to his senses. He looked at the angry Xu Yihe and asked, "Why did your mother insist that you marry the Tian family?"

"I think the one from the Tian family seems..."

Wang Shuhuan had seen Tian Qixin's photos, and had a bad impression of Tian Qixin after hearing Xu Yihe's daily complaints. However, Wang Shuhuan still felt that speaking ill of others behind their backs was inappropriate, so he could only speak out.

"It seems... that I am not a good match with Sister Xu..."

"Nonsense!" Xu Yihe was touched by Wang Shuhuan's words, and nodded with a louder voice:

"That so-called Tian Qixin is useless except for his wealthy family. Don't you think I don't know? He has had several illegitimate children in his twenties. Even if I marry you, I will never marry him!"

Some words may be said unintentionally by the speaker but taken seriously by the listener. Wang Shuhuan's hand holding the milk tea suddenly trembled and he almost choked on the tea.

Xu Yihe did not realize the impact his casual words would have on Wang Shuhuan who had just stepped out of the school.

"What a pity, you're just a child..." Xu Yihe could only continue to mutter in distress:
"You don't know how long I begged my mother for before she agreed that if I could obtain the sword pill on Fangshan Mountain, I could decide on my own about the engagement with the Tian family. Later, she said that if I could become a disciple of an orthodox lineage on Qingcheng Mountain, she would help me delay the engagement with the Tian family for a few years. If I became a master of Qiling, she would cancel the engagement directly."

"Now, I didn't get the sword pill, and I was driven down from Qingcheng Mountain because I was anxious to make merit and spread the news. If you hadn't helped me escape, I might have really married into the Tian family now."

The more Xu Yihe spoke, the angrier he became. Wang Shuhuan looked at Xu Yihe, who was about to cry, and couldn't help but said, "How about I teach you how to cultivate immortality?"

"Just you?" Xu Yihe looked at Wang Shuhuan in surprise when he heard that.

To be fair, the current masters of spiritual awakening are of great value, but Wang Shuhuan has no master, no inheritance of Dharma, and can only be regarded as a casual cultivator. Firstly, he has no orthodox status, and secondly, he does not have those truly key skills.

Although Wang Shuhuan had read the inheritance of various sects when he was still the Sword Master, his cultivation was very low at that time. The subsequent techniques in those lineages that directly pointed to the innate were like his lifeblood, so they were definitely not passed on to him.

So, when Wang Shuhuan said this, Xu Yihe's mood did not improve much.

"When I was the Sword Master, I got some foundation-building techniques, but I didn't get the subsequent innate part. Those old Taoist priests even made me swear not to pass it on to others..." Wang Shuhuan scratched his head and immediately continued, "But later I got another technique that had no restrictions and a very high upper limit for practice."

Xu Yihe was stunned, then waved his hands: "Those idiots, it's fine if they don't like me, but I didn't expect they had a trick up their sleeves for you. Sure enough, I knelt for so long and it was just asking for trouble."

As she spoke, she raised her head: "Where did you get this technique from? If it's inherited from some evil cult, I'll be in big trouble!"

Wang Shuhuan waved his hands hurriedly: "How is that possible? I have discussed this with Master Li, and it was he who helped me get it from the sword pill."

"I just thought that if you can cultivate to the level of awakening spirit or even innate with the help of this technique, it won't matter whether you become my disciple or not. Your mother will definitely not make things difficult for you anymore."

Xu Yihe hesitated: "The skills in the sword pill? Can you teach me clearly?"

Seeing Xu Yihe relaxed, Wang Shuhuan's face was full of smiles. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, Sister Xu, I have memorized this article by heart. Master Li also praised my high aptitude and comprehension. There will be no problem teaching you!"

Xu Yihe didn't want to be bound by anything, nor did she want others to arrange her life. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this method was highly feasible.

Since Wang Shuhuan was able to achieve spiritual enlightenment in just a few months, there is no reason why I can't!

That silly look caused Xu Yihe to laugh like a silver bell: "Okay, you teach me the skills, and if I really become a master, I will definitely protect you. In this way, I will pay for all your expenses in Yuedong, and I will take you to eat delicious food tonight!"

As long as you cultivate to awaken your spirit, the sky will be high enough for fish to leap, the sea will be wide enough for birds to fly, and you won’t have to care about that old woman’s face anymore!
Wang Shuhuan just smiled, feeling happy that he could come up with such an idea and that Xu Yihe didn't have to marry into the Tian family.

Neither of the two young men thought about the two monsters of the Xu family and the Tian family anymore, nor did they think about what the marriage between these two political and business giants represented, and whether it was something that the two young men could shake.

Xu Yihe moved out the yoga mat in the room, changed into tight pink yoga clothes, and sat cross-legged facing Wang Shuhuan.

Xu Yihe had a very good memory. In just one afternoon, she had memorized most of the Qi circulation routes and techniques of the "Bixu Yuqi Jue" taught to her by Wang Shuhuan. Although she had not yet felt the Qi, after practicing for several hours, she felt warm and comfortable all over.

The sky darkened unconsciously. Xu Yihe opened his eyes in surprise and hugged Wang Shuhuan excitedly, saying in a joyful voice: "This seems to be really useful. The breathing methods and yoga and tai chi I found on the Internet have never been so comfortable!"

Wang Shuhuan looked embarrassed, his arms were stiff and he didn't dare to touch Xu Yihe's soft waist.

Xu Yihe didn't notice this. She let go of Wang Shuhuan and saw the night view outside. She was a little surprised.
"Have we been meditating for this long? It's already dark?"

Turning around again, looking at Wang Shuhuan's lowered head, Xu Yihe thought he was hungry and laughed out loud: "My great hero, you are hungry, right? Don't worry, I will never treat you badly, I will take you to eat delicious food right away!"

"Wait for me, I'm going to take a shower, change clothes and leave right away!"

After saying that, Xu Yihe rushed into the bedroom.

With Wang Shuhuan's hearing, he could clearly hear the sound of clothes being taken off and the sound of clean water running across the skin in the bathroom, so he lowered his head even more, his face flushed.

The place Xu Yihe took him to by taxi was Yangping City's most famous Sun and Moon Commercial Street. When Wang Shuhuan got off the car and saw the bright lights and tall buildings, he felt a little restrained.

Xu Yihe was walking in the square under the night lights, hands behind her back, skipping and jumping, feeling very happy: "Tell me, what do you want to eat? Sister will treat you!"

"Whatever, Sister Xu, just pick what you like to eat."

"What do I like to eat?" Xu Yihe thought for a moment, turned around, and almost bumped into Wang Shuhuan who was walking with his head down: "I know there is a French restaurant with great service here. The foie gras there tastes great. I'll take you there!"

"but……"

"But what?" Wang Shuhuan asked.

"The building that owns the Fa Restaurant is owned by the Tian family... Who cares? It's not like I'm not paying them. They opened a restaurant, so I can eat whatever I want!" After saying that, Xu Yihe pulled up Wang Shuhuan's sleeve and rushed to a building on the commercial street.

"This is it, on the 37th floor of the Sun Moon Building. I ate here with my mom last time."

Wang Shuhuan looked up at the huge monster whose top he could not see. For the first time, he had a concrete idea of ​​the Tian family that Xu Yihe had mentioned.

"Such a...big building, is it all owned by the Tian family?"

"What's so strange about this? We have several houses at home. If you want one, I can give it to you later."

Wang Shuhuan was just an ordinary middle-class person before. Although his mother was a government official, her salary was actually not high. When he heard Xu Yihe talking about giving him a building as a gift, he felt a sense of unreality.

At this moment, looking up at the entire building, Wang Shuhuan suddenly felt something strange.
From his perspective, the entire Sun and Moon Building was brightly lit. The lights embedded in the glass exterior walls made the entire building look like an ice crystal jade staircase, shining brightly.

The only area that was dark was the fourteenth floor, and the glass exterior walls were sealed, making it look like the entire building was cut in half.

Xu Yihe heard Wang Shuhuan's question and was also puzzled when he saw the abnormality on the fourteenth floor: "I don't know, it seems that there was a case two months ago, and then it was sealed up."

"It's not a seal," Wang Shuhuan shook his head and said in a complicated tone, "It's peach wood!"

He had been in Qingcheng Mountain for so long, and was influenced by what he saw and heard, so he recognized it immediately with his sharp eyesight.

"Who cares? Let's eat first. I'm hungry."

Xu Yihe didn't know the meaning of peach wood, so he pulled Wang Shuhuan into the elevator.

The button for the fourteenth floor on the elevator had been welded, but when the elevator passed the fourteenth floor, Wang Shuhuan suddenly felt his hair stand on end and a tremor and discomfort enveloped his whole body.

"what happened to you?"

The elevator had already reached the 20th floor, and Wang Shuhuan murmured, "Don't you feel that the temperature in the elevator has dropped a little?"

"Isn't the air conditioning in the Sun Moon Building better?"

Wang Shuhuan didn't know how to describe his feelings just now. After thinking about it, in order not to disturb Xu Yihe's interest, he had to remain silent.

After exiting the elevator on the 37th floor, Wang Shuhuan still looked back suspiciously: Maybe I was just wrong, it was just because of the air conditioning.

After I finished eating the foie gras and got off the elevator, that chilly feeling came back to me.

On the side of the road, the two of them strolled around the Sun Moon Building and its surroundings for a while before Wang Shuhuan reluctantly took a taxi to send Xu Yihe back.

"Thank you, little brother, for teaching me such a precious technique. I will definitely repay you!"

Xu Yihe was not stupid. He knew the importance of the martial arts skills that Wang Shuhuan brought out in this era, so he cunningly hugged Wang Shuhuan gently.

"Silly boy, I can see that you don't like foie gras. I've been waiting for you to say something, but you just kept eating without saying anything. Humph, I won't bring you here next time. I know there are many delicious foods here."

"See you tomorrow!" He whispered in the ear. Looking at Wang Shuhuan's helpless and stiff body, Xu Yihe put his hands behind his back and smiled mischievously, then got into the taxi.

It was not until the car drove a long way away that Wang Shuhuan raised his hands naively. There seemed to be a surge of happiness in his heart, and he completely forgot about the abnormality he had just experienced.

"See you tomorrow~"

He did not return to the team hotel immediately, but instead found a place to have some midnight snack.

Xu Yihe was right. He really couldn't get used to eating foie gras.

But he didn't want to waste that small plate of food, which cost several four-digit dollars. The miserable thing was that even if he finished it, the portion was not enough to fill him up, considering the French restaurant's quantity.

After visiting several shops, it was already past midnight. The shops still open in Riyue Commercial Street were basically high-end luxury brands. Wang Shuhuan walked around for a long time and a long way before he found a Shaxian snack shop with its light on at the entrance of a remote alley.

When he walked into the shop, there was only one customer inside besides the owner. When Wang Shuhuan saw the customer eating noodles with his head down, his expression suddenly changed.

"Master Li...Master Li!"

Li Yang and Wang Shuhuan looked at each other and slurped their noodles: "Why, you are the only one allowed to pick up girls, but I can't even eat a bowl of noodles?"

Wang Shuhuan looked embarrassed and stammered, not knowing how to refute.

"I'm not following you. I just came back from an exploration mission and happened to sense your presence here. Today, someone came to me to complain that a young boy had kidnapped her daughter, so I came down to take a look out of curiosity."

"You kid, you look like a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but I didn't expect you to do such things behind the scenes."

Wang Shuhuan endured Li Yang's teasing and buried his head in his chest.

"Okay, come and have dinner, what's the big deal?" Seeing Wang Shuhuan's innocent look, Li Yang couldn't help but sigh, with Xu Yihe's high ponytail and long legs, could it be that this silly boy really took her away?

Wang Shuhuan then sat down opposite Li Yang, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the prices were finally more affordable. He ordered a bag of dumplings, then looked up at Li Yang who had finished his last noodle.

"How about... Master Li, if you want to eat something else, I'll treat you."

Li Yang's eyes lit up: "You said that!"

Wang Shuhuan's face twitched as he watched Li Yang wave his hand and order a plate of braised pork and chicken leg rice and a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.

No wonder I met Master Li in this shabby little shop. It seems that the person who was rumored to have lost everything due to paying compensation for destroying public property in Qingcheng Mountain must be the one in front of me.

While the ordered dishes were not yet served, Wang Shuhuan could not help but ask curiously:

"Master Li, you said someone complained today? Who was it?"

Li Yang rolled his eyes at Wang Shuhuan and said, "Who else could it be? It's the mother of the girl Xu you kidnapped, Madam Xu."
