Chapter 51: Going Down the Mountain
"If you want to master peerless martial arts, you must endure pain that ordinary people cannot endure..."
Lin Chaoyu was skipping along the road, humming a strange tune, looking very happy.
"The tea that Master likes to drink is called Oolong, and he likes to wear Chinese red clothes... Hey? Master doesn't seem to drink Oolong tea..."
Halfway through the song, Lin Chaoyu suddenly froze for a moment, then held his chin and muttered in confusion.
"I remember that Master didn't wear red clothes either... Senior Sister, how did you write this little song?"
Lin Chaoyu just turned around to ask Xier, but found that Xier, who had been walking behind her, suddenly disappeared.
When she turned around, she found Xier was already in front of her.
'boom'
Along with a crisp sound above Lin Chaoyu's head, Xier's voice rang out.
"You're just a chatterbox... you know a lot."
“Ouch… it hurts…”
Lin Chaoyu covered her head with her hands. She had clearly been on guard against her senior sister's sudden attack, but she still couldn't catch Xier's sight.
"I failed the test again today."
Xier closed one eye and waved a finger in front of Lin Chaoyu's eyes.
"Ah~~~ Stop it, Senior Sister! Can you bear to watch your little junior sister suffer punishment..."
Lin Chaoyu put her hands in front of her eyes, pretended to wipe her tears, and spoke in a coquettish voice that didn't sound like crying at all.
"First of all, you are no longer Junior Sister, Ah Mei is now; secondly, the daily reaction test is an agreement between us, and those who violate the agreement will have to swallow a thousand needles."
Xier gently tapped Lin Chaoyu's forehead with her finger and said.
"Yes, yes, yes... Humph! Let's do it..."
Seeing that Xier didn't buy it, Lin Chaoyu immediately returned to normal, and her little mouth instantly turned up in an angry look.
Today is the third day since the two of them went down the mountain.
After getting Fu Hua's permission, Xi'er took Lin Chaoyu down the mountain for training. She was not worried about Su Mei's life in the mountain. Although Fu Hua was a piece of wood, Cang Xuan Book was not.
Although the little ancestor has little presence, she does exist. As an armed puppet equipped with a very detailed emotional system, Xier believes that the Book of Cang Xuan can take good care of Su Mei's life.
Taking Lin Chaoyu down the mountain was naturally for training, and Xier had not forgotten this purpose. She made three rules with Lin Chaoyu: apart from the necessary daily training, Xier would not interfere with Lin Chaoyu's schedule. Lin Chaoyu could freely choose the route and travel according to her own ideas. Xier was more of a travel companion and observer.
When you are away from home, conflicts are inevitable. The world of martial arts is a complex society. If someone provokes someone else, it will only take a word to resolve the issue. Socializing and fighting are also part of the experience. Therefore, Xier will not intervene in any battles that Lin Chaoyu encounters during the journey. Of course, this is said to her. If she really encounters a danger that can threaten Lin Chaoyu's life, Xier will help.
Secondly, Xier would conduct reaction tests on Lin Chaoyu from time to time when she was free. If she failed, she would have to add an extra period of reading time every day. If Lin Chaoyu could react, Xier would reward her with a delicious meal.
For Lin Chaoyu who didn't want to study at all, Xier could only use this method to help her study. At least for now, Lin Chaoyu would have to study for a while.
"Wow! Senior sister! Senior sister! Look at this lantern!"
As night fell, lights were turned on in the small town where Xier and the others had arrived. The light from the lanterns illuminated half of the city. This prosperous scene was just like that of other cities. The light dispelled the gloom of the night, allowing people to live in peace.
However, where there is light, there is darkness, which is an eternal truth. Bright and beautiful is always just an appearance, and countless surging dark tides are hidden under the bright and beautiful appearance. It depends on how people distinguish it.
"Senior sister... this dish is not as delicious as yours."
Lin Chaoyu sat in the lobby of the inn, took a bite of food and put it in his mouth, then blinked and said to Xier.
"Don't say that casually. Every chef has his or her own specialty, whether it's frying or boiling, knife skills or plain pastry. Cooking is like martial arts, no one dares to say that they have reached the end."
Xier said while eating that Lin Chaoyu still had too little experience. Although she was not young anymore, she had stayed in Taixu Mountain for many years and had no idea how to interact with others. In her opinion, if she didn't care, she might offend others. That was why Xier followed her down the mountain.
"Oh~~ So that's how it is." Lin Chaoyu nodded, not quite understanding, and then she asked, "So, Senior Sister, what kind of dishes are you good at?"
"Me?" Xier smiled and said, "I only know a little bit about each one."
"Well, that means I know everything..."
Lin Chaoyu looked at her speechlessly. It was just like Wang Po selling melons.
"Eat quickly, it will get cold soon."
Xier didn't answer but just ordered some of Lin Chaoyu's half-remaining rice.
"Oh, oh! Yes, eating is important."
Lin Chaoyu quickly lowered his head and picked up his bowl, finishing the remaining rice in just a few bites.
"I'm so full... burp~"
After a very inelegant burp, Lin Chaoyu rubbed her belly. Although it was still flat, the feeling of fullness in her abdomen made her feel a little uncomfortable. It seemed that she had eaten too much.
"Want to go out for a walk?"
Looking at Lin Chaoyu's exhausted look, Xier suggested.
"That's fine. I haven't really seen the night market yet."
When he heard that he was going out for a walk, Lin Chaoyu immediately became alert. In the past few days, he had been traveling along official roads and woods, without seeing any cities, let alone any lively scenes.
Lin Chaoyu started to live with those trees, flowers and so on in Taixu Mountain two years ago. Now it has been more than two years and he has become extremely tired of them.
"Slow down, don't run."
Looking at Lin Chaoyu running out like a husky with a rope loosened, Xier held her forehead slightly, wondering if there was something wrong with her education method. How did the gentle woman in her memory become the husky spirit now...
(I think she's fine this way. At least it's comfortable to look at. If she really becomes the same as before, I don't want to see her at all.)
Xiao Shi expressed her own opinion. For her, if Lin Chaoyu was the same as in her "memory", then she would be really upset. Although this look now was a little silly, it proved that Lin Chaoyu had changed. It would be best if he was completely different from before.
"Xiao Shi, don't make trouble. I just want her to be a little quieter. After all, a girl always needs to have quiet time..." Xier muttered.
(Hahaha, Xier, you are like an old mother now, it's so interesting.)
"Fuck you, I'm only in my 20s."
Xier rolled her eyes at Xiaozhi, but then she turned around and looked at herself. Did she really look like an old woman? No way...
"Humph, it's all Xiaoshi's fault. He made me think wildly. She is now a serious beautiful girl, only less than... um... 5 years older than Chaoyu?"
Xi'er lost her confidence as she spoke. Although she had experienced many worlds, her appearance remained the same, but her age had actually increased. She was 14 years old at the beginning, and now she is over 20...
"So many years have passed..."
Xier suddenly felt emotional. If she thought about it seriously, she had been away for so many years, experienced so many things, met so many people, but still hadn't found her way home...
"When can I go back?"
Xier asked this question silently in her heart, but soon she shook her head and threw it aside. It is meaningless to think about it now. It is better to live well now than to worry about the future.
"Eh? If that's the case, can I let Bronya-sister call me sister when I go back? After all, I'm already that old."
Seele suddenly thought that Bronya was only about 16 years old. If she went back to the time when she left, she would be older than Bronya. Would Sister Bronya call her sister then?
When Xier thought of Bronya calling her sister in her milky voice, she suddenly felt happy.
(Maybe she will call me auntie~Aunt Xier~)
"I know you!!"
(Hahahaha!! Hahaha! I’m dying of laughter!!)
"Huh! If that's the case, then you're also an old aunt!"
(Uh… hum! I am immortal, so age is meaningless. I am who I am no matter how much time has passed!)
"That's a cunning answer."
(Wahahaha! Of course! This immortal is perfect! This is the complete Chi Yuan! The complete Fu Hua! The complete...)
"Hmph, I'll block you for five minutes! Take my Silence Spell!"
Chapter 52 Rumors
"Hey, have you heard about that Holy Fire Cult..."
"Holy Fire Cult? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Oh, you don't know this? It's the sect that set up the Holy Fire Arena and invited heroes from all over the world to compete."
"Yes, that's it."
"I heard that many big sects have sent people there, such as the Sword Forging Villa, the Red Cloud Valley, and the Taishan Sect. They are all going there."
"Hey! So many people? It must be so lively here. I want to go and have a look."
"You? Damn it. Those who go there are people from big and powerful sects. With your small body, I'm afraid you can't even get in."
"........."
The crowd was chattering away, while Xier and Lin Chaoyu sat quietly at the table, listening to the rumors.
"Senior Sister, do you think the Holy Fire Cult is real?"
Lin Chaoyu looked around, then leaned over quietly and asked Xier this.
"The rumors are not groundless. Since they are being spread so enthusiastically, they must be true. I just don't know if it is as they say."
Xier lowered her head and took a sip of tea and said, "Why? Are you interested?"
"hey-hey……"
Lin Chaoyu scratched his head, looked at Xi'er embarrassedly and said, "Senior sister is really amazing...you know all this."
"You..." Xi'er looked at Lin Zhaoyu helplessly and said, "'I'm curious' is almost written on your face. Are you Chitanda Eru?"
"What? What?"
Hearing Xi'er's words, Lin Chaoyu was completely confused and said, "Senior sister, you are saying something I don't understand again."
"What I mean is that if you want to go, then go. Originally, this training is centered on you, and my main purpose is to make sure you don't get lost." Xier glanced at her and said.
"Really!" Hearing Xier's agreement, Lin Chaoyu suddenly became excited. She quickly grabbed Xier's hand and prepared to get up.
"Just sit down quietly for now."
Xier pulled Lin Chaoyu, who had just stood up, back to his seat with one hand.
"Eh? Senior Sister, didn't you agree? Why do you suddenly change your mind..."
Lin Chaoyu looked at Xier aggrievedly, as if saying, "I will cry in front of you if you explain it to me clearly."
Crowdfunding Group ④⑤ Lu Yi Er Qi Jiu Si Ling Xi Er raised her hand and tapped Lin Chaoyu on the head. In the latter's puzzled look, she said, "Where are you going?"
"The Holy Fire Cult!" Lin Chaoyu said as a matter of course.
"Do you know where it is?"
"Well, just ask around and you'll know." Lin Chaoyu said after a pause.
"Do you know when the meeting will be held?"
"Forehead……"
Lin Chaoyu gradually fell silent.
"Do you know if the conference requires an invitation? If so, how do I get one? What identity do you want to use to go?"
Xier spoke sharply one by one, and Lin Chaoyu's head shrank a little with every word. Finally, when Xier finally finished speaking, Lin Chaoyu was completely overwhelmed.
"Abba, Ababa, Abba..."
"So you don't know anything, how are you going to get there..."
Xier held her forehead slightly, looked at Lin Chaoyu and said, "Since you want to go, I will give you a task. If you can complete it, I will let you go."
"No problem! What mission?"
Lin Chaoyu patted his chest and said that he could definitely do it.
"Well."
Xier's mouth curled up into a wicked smile.
"hiss"
Looking at the smile on Xier's lips, Lin Chaoyu felt a sense of fear for no reason.
