I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 24 I Don’t Really Understand You Monsters

"Gululu..."

The rumbling in his stomach made Feng Xue stop outputting his magic power. Looking at the dim sky outside the window, he blew his nose hard. The candles of this era were not the smokeless scented candles of later generations. At such a close distance, it was inevitable that his nose would be filled with soot.

After cleaning up the garbage in the house, Feng Xue suddenly remembered that the little white snake had been in her bedroom for several hours. The various "stupid maid" characters she had seen before crossing over emerged in her mind, and her face suddenly darkened.

Feng Xue walked quickly to the door and pushed it open. She was slightly stunned. Although the bed sheets were not very symmetrical and the folds of the quilt were not smooth, it seemed...

Is it really okay?

In fact, Feng Xue was also thinking in the wrong direction. Whether it is a film and television work or anime and comics, it is ultimately just an exaggerated expression to reflect the character setting. If it comes to dark cuisine, it may be carbonization caused by the heat, but when it comes to making the bed and folding the quilt, unless it is deliberately messed up, there will definitely not be any catastrophic scenes.

As if noticing Feng Xue coming in, the little white snake curled up in the corner raised its head, completely forgetting that it had transformed into a human form. Feng Xue couldn't help but cover his face with his hands at this extremely shocking scene and sighed:

"What are you doing lying here?"

"Ah, well, I've made my bed, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to practice for a while..." The little white snake hurriedly got up. Although his posture was very stable, he still gave people a feeling of stiffness that made them feel uncomfortable.

Although the appearance of the little white snake really attracted Feng Xue's attention, he did not ignore the blind spot and immediately said:

"Didn't you say we can only cultivate by absorbing the moon's energy? The moon isn't out yet, is it?"

"Gathering Qi is gathering Qi, and refining Qi is refining Qi. My Qi gathering efficiency was very low before, so I got used to refining it while gathering. As a result, I got it wrong last night. Then your vitality filled up the entire building. I stored up a breath of Moonlight (even though it would take me half a minute to absorb it before), but I didn't dare to practice. I can only take advantage of this moment of free time to transform it..."

The little white snake seemed to feel that she was indeed a bit guilty for being lazy while working, and her voice became weaker and weaker. However, Feng Xue had just experienced the soul not being able to absorb the vitality last night, so she could completely understand this. She nodded, without any intention of blaming the little white snake. She just glanced at her again. She was really unbearable to look at the plain robe that was basically a piece of rag cut out of her body, and could only sigh:

"Can you take off these rags of yours?"

"Ah!" The little white snake cried out in surprise. Feng Xue suddenly felt a slight headache and could only say:
"What are you calling it? It's like you're wearing clothes before you transform. By the way, do you monsters also have the concept of chastity?"

As if Feng Xue had enlightened him, the little white snake was slightly startled, tilting its head in a very cute manner, and then said with some doubt:
"I didn't have it before I transformed, but I have it after I transformed. Oh, and I met Emperor Liujiang not long after I was born, and I devoted myself to cultivation. So I'm not just any snake!"

"I didn't ask you that, and isn't your explanation a bit too deliberate?" Feng Xue felt his head hurting more, and even suspected that this was caused by excessive mana output today.

The little white snake seemed to sense the incongruity in Feng Xue's question, and sat down on the ground, looking like he was thinking hard. After a while, he said:
"That's strange. I hadn't thought about these things before I transformed... Oh, right! Grandma Fox Fairy said that the transformation of the Mouth Sealing Technique is to use the willpower of humanity between heaven and earth to stimulate spiritual interaction. So, these strange thoughts, perhaps, come from 'humanity'? Just like how I learned how to collect moonlight after drinking the Emperor's Juice?"

"Is that so? So what is humanity? Alaya?" Feng Xue felt vaguely as if he had inadvertently come into contact with some of the laws of this world again, but the little white snake was clueless. Instead, he remembered Feng Xue's previous question and tugged at his white robe and said:

"This is the skin I shed. I've been using it as my life-defining magical weapon. However, I haven't yet cultivated my innate magic, so it's only a bit defensive... I gained this transformation ability when my mouth was sealed and I transformed." At this point, the little white snake seemed to suddenly realize that he had let something slip, and curled up again, then carefully poked his head out and said:

"I can't give you this, but at worst... I can just give you my skin!"

"Who wants your skin? And why is there another one?" Feng Xue felt that she could not keep up with the snake spirit's train of thought, but the little white snake seemed to be relieved:
"I shed my skin every three months, and every time I shed it, I use it as material for refining. To be honest, those with fur are more convenient. They don't hurt or itch, and I can shed so much..."

"It's better not to let those with hair loss hear this."

Feng Xue rolled her eyes, then immediately pulled out her phone, exited sleep mode, found her treasured wallpaper, and said to the little white snake, "Since it can transform... can it be like this?"

"Of course I can...but does it have to be like this?" The little white snake looked at the group of women wearing strange clothes in the picture, and always felt an indescribable awkwardness -

"Could this be the 'transparent black silk cheongsam' you mentioned when we were sealed?"

"Ah, you still remember?" Feng Xue was a little embarrassed by the little white snake's question, but still shook his head and said:
"These are all maid outfits, the kind that maids in wealthy families wear when they work. And this one is wearing white silk. As for the sheer black silk and cheongsam... I'll look for them. Oh, I got it. It's like this."

Feng Xue swiped twice, bringing up another wallpaper. The little white snake looked at the figure in the picture. Although the style of the painting was not realistic, the features were about 70% similar to his current appearance. His face suddenly changed, and he shook his head vigorously.
"A white silk maid will do!"

As she said that, she hurriedly shook off the rags, and a scene that looked like an uncensored Blu-ray version of a magical girl's transformation flashed by. The white snake maid was going to work in a dashing manner!

"Zhao! White snake, get out of my head!"

(The white snake that pops up in jo chef's mind)
Feng Xue tried hard to shake off the image of the dark version of the White Snake in his mind, staring at the little white snake and began to wash his eyes. The little white snake felt very uncomfortable being stared at, so he interrupted:

"Well, are you here to inspect the results? I laid it out according to the instructions on the packaging. Do you think it's okay?"

As the little white snake deliberately moved aside, Feng Xue pinched the bridge of his nose and said:
"Compared to this, do you have a name? When I think of the White Snake, another image always pops up in my mind."

"Yes, it is. The fox fairy grandmother gave it to me, but I haven't used it much... I can't quite remember it. I think it was called Liu... Liu or something?"

Seeing the little white snake start to act stupidly, Feng Xue didn't just sit there and wait. He quickly rearranged the bed and then said:

"If you can't remember, just do the work first. Come on, I'll show you how to cook. You'll be the one doing this work from now on!"

"Don't worry, I'll remember it right away! Oh, I think I remembered it somewhere..." The little white snake was like a student who hadn't finished writing a few strokes when the exam bell rang. She struggled to finish it, but her feet still followed Feng Xue obediently. When they reached the kitchen, she clapped her hands suddenly, lifted up her maid skirt, and then pointed at the hem of her skirt in Feng Xue's astonished eyes and said:
"Can you help me see what's written on it?"

　Regarding the question of how easy it is to acquire martial arts, how should I put it? It depends on the world view.

　　For example, in Harry Potter, anyone with talent will receive a letter from the magic school. This is a manifestation of "high magic", that is, extraordinary popularity and popularity (yes, high magic and high martial arts are actually not the same concept).

　　Even in the world of cultivation, ordinary skills are everywhere, but high-end skills are hard to find.

　　In this world, even ordinary people selling breakfast know about fortune-tellers and Taoist priests, which shows that the extraordinary are widely known.

　　Secondly, there is the concept of "the underworld". Without saying too much, just from the fact that the ancestors are working hard down there, you should understand that this is an ecosystem composed of a large number of ghost practitioners.

　　If such an ecosystem wants to grow, it will definitely need more practitioners. Only then will there be more people who have achieved success in spiritual cultivation and can switch to cultivating ghosts and immortals. Only then will the underworld have more fresh blood, instead of having only one new person join every few decades and each unit scrambling for them.

　　In a sense, the extraordinary popularity in this world is essentially a kind of "university expansion". The secrets of each school will not be taught, but if it is just to enter the industry or ordinary technology, it will be taught.

　　However, Feng Xue was lucky, as the Taoist priest was not at home, so he learned the real stuff (of course, it was also because he had received higher education and worked in the novel industry, which broadened his thinking and vision. Otherwise, it would not have been easy for him to summarize the essence of the four basic laws without anyone's guidance).

　　Do you understand after this explanation?
