Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 21: Turning the tables
Immortal Master Han had no intention of keeping the guest. Wei Xi meant that Immortal Master Han liked to keep the guest in his hall after all.

Wei Xi is a lazy guy who prefers to mind his own business, while Qin Feng has a father who is a military commander and his duty is to obey orders.

The two of them were not at all curious about the box that Master Han gave them.

After receiving a clear path from Master Han, this strange bluebird finally earned its place. Zhao Dazui marveled at the bird for a while, while Senior Sister Xie simply patted Wei Xi's head and said, "It's finally sweet after all the hardship."

It seems that in the world of immortal cultivation, everyone has a strong ability to accept strange things.

Wei Xi scoffed at Qin Feng's idea. The orchid nestled on her head. The man and the bird sat on a big rock and watched Qin Feng do horse stance.

"It's not that I'm receptive," Lan Que's voice was no longer as strange. It was just that the structure of her tongue was slightly different, so some words sounded strange. "It's that everyone likes things to develop in a positive direction."

"You're too pessimistic." Qin Feng squeezed his facial features together and looked at Wei Xi who was chewing on a sweet potato.

Wei Xi spat out the residue in his mouth and rolled his eyes upwards.

"People don't accept the fact that I'm mute that well. People just don't want to believe bad things."

"Whatever you say, you can speak now anyway." Qin Feng couldn't help laughing, as if spring had arrived in Yizhangyuan early.

Wei Xi took a bite of the sweet potato stick, and the bluebird above her head was trying to comb its non-existent tail hair.

No matter what she thinks, Wei Xi muttered in his heart. The orchid on his head seemed to have a lot to say. Wei Xi had been mute for ten years and was not a talkative person now.

But she has a lot of inner drama. After all, when no one listens to you, you can only talk to yourself.

Just like now, Wei Xi couldn't bear to ruin Qin Feng's good mood, so she didn't let Lan Que say her true thoughts: only when this Lan Que who likes to shit everywhere is alive can she speak.

But it would be too cruel to make Qin Feng sad or to let the bird speak of its own death with its own mouth.

Looking at Qin Feng, whose legs were shaking from doing horse stance, Wei Xi had other worries in his mind.

He could live a life of luxury in the Qingcheng Sect, but what about Qin Feng? Wei Xi had tried to recite the techniques to Qin Feng in a beautiful voice, but the bird was so exhausted that it collapsed, and Qin Feng couldn't even understand what the bird was saying.

Incidentally, Lingyin is the name of Weixi's living, external throat. Qin Feng suggested that Weixi give it a name called Chusheng, which sounds like "beast" (meaning "animal"), so that Weixi would always remember what the bird had done.

Wei Xi rejected Qin Feng's proposal expressionlessly. She didn't want to be called the master of a beast. It was too much.

When Wei Xi was on night watch, he stole the name "Lingyin" from the "Legend of the Immortal World" which he used to pass the time and gave it to the bald-tailed bird.

Finally, before Lingyin used Bald Tail as her own name, Wei Xi gave it a name and thwarted Zhao Dazui's conspiracy.

Wei Xi sold all the fruits she harvested from the forest and the snow radishes she grew, and she went to Chen Shuangli's yard.

Chen Shuangli had barely reached the stage of foundation building, so naturally he lived in the courtyard of his disciples. His contemporaries, unable to tolerate the large and small ponds that Chen Shuangli had dug in the courtyard, moved out one after another, and Chen Shuangli was content to be at his ease.

When Wei Xi entered, Chen Shuangli was standing on the edge of a large pond wrapped in a rag. Wei Xi felt as if sorrow had solidified around him.

Chen Shuangli felt a hand pulling him from behind, and he was overjoyed: Could it be that his two-handed fish breeding was finally successful? In his joy, he turned his head, but the result made him very disappointed.

"Junior sister? What are you doing here?" "To pay back the money." Lingyin was busy eating the snow radish that Wei Xi specially left for her, and her voice was short and urgent.

Chen Shuangli widened his eyes, his thin body swayed, and he fell into the pond.

"Master, sister??" Chen Shuangli quickly covered his brother's hand, "I remember you couldn't speak!"

Wei Xi blinked her eyes in confusion. She pointed at the spiritual sound that was being broadcast without any effort, indicating that she had an external throat.

Chen Shuangli got up in a panic. He was oblivious to what was happening outside, but he was also a serious cultivator. After thinking about it, he realized that Wei Xi probably had an adventure.

"Congratulations, Junior Sister!" Chen Shuangli put on his coat. "So, Junior Sister, what are you doing here? Buying fish?"

Wei Xi shook his head. "I'm here to return the spirit stones. My cat ate your fish."

Chen Shuangli scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "Junior sister, you have been here for less than a year. You should keep some money for emergencies. I am not in a hurry."

Looking at the patches on Brother Chen's clothes and his thin figure, Wei Xi insisted on returning the spirit stone to him and apologized to him solemnly.

"Hey, Junior Sister..." Chen Shuangli didn't expect Wei Xi to really do what she said, "How about you take two fish back? It's a little gift from me."

"I have a cat, thank you, senior brother." Wei Xi refused those precious spiritual fish of Chen Shuangli. Chen Shuangli also remembered the tabby cat squatting by the pond and picking out the big ones, and his heart ached.

"I have something here." Wei Xi was so well-behaved that Chen Shuangli felt like he was bullying someone. He took out a small bag from his Qiankun bag and said, "This is for you. I used to use it to catch fish fry."

Wei Xi took it. It was a small blue cloth bag with two wide straps. The material was good.

"I put bait in it before, but I've washed it now. You can use it to tie your hair, and it's just right for you to put your spiritual bird in it." Senior Brother Chen explained to Wei Xi.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Wei Xi didn't hesitate and tied him up on the spot. Chen Shuangli then took out the IOU Wei Xi had written him and handed it to Wei Xi, and the matter was finally settled.

After paying back the spirit stones, Wei Xi brought Lingyin, who was hiding in his new home, back to the dormitory and sat on the kang to count the spirit stones.

After deducting daily expenses, Wei Xi still had six high-grade spirit stones and two medium-grade spirit stones left. After all, Wei Xi had to eat and wear clothes, and he also had a cat and a bird to keep.

Wei Xi was a little worried. He had to find some way to make money, otherwise he wouldn't be able to pay the monthly rent for the bird above his head.

Lingyin was now very close in size to her parents, but for some reason, Weixi always thought she was ugly, especially the bald patch on her tail. She also ate more and moved less, often dominating Weixi's head.

But Wei Xi still had to keep this bird that had become the master. Qin Feng said that she was worthy of being the bird's mother, and Wei Xi said that it was not impossible.

The Qingcheng Sect was about to go to the small secret realm of Tiandi Gate. Wei Xi had repeatedly expressed to Senior Sister Xie how diligent and studious he was and how he wanted to stay in Bailu Pavilion and study hard, but Senior Sister Xie gently rejected him every time.

Wei Xi really didn't understand what a cultivator who had just reached the Qi training stage was doing there. Qi training! Aside from Qin Feng, this rare talent, anyone with a Qi Palace and the ability to draw Qi into their body could reach this state.

Because he had to go to the secret realm, Wei Xi's plan to continue planting medicinal herbs in the pine forest had to be postponed. Moreover, because he had to go on a long journey, the head of the magic sect ordered Wei Xi to control the spiritual sound that was playing everywhere.

I hate the secret realm, Wei Xi said.
