Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

Ning Xianzhi didn't react and didn't understand what he meant for a moment. A look of doubt appeared on her cold and lonely face, and her slightly wrinkled brows also showed her charming charm.

Bai Sujin didn't quite understand either, but the Fox Queen understood instantly and smiled heartily.

The fox girl explained, "It's about a little Tibetan fox and a group of ghosts pretending to be townspeople, observing the few living people there. It's really a bit of a bad taste."

Chu Wuji smiled. He imagined, "In the future, whenever a ghost market appears in any place, it will be immediately occupied by immortal cultivators pretending to be ghosts. A group of fake ghosts will observe the few real ghosts and eavesdrop on the ghosts' gossip."

At that time, it will really become a food chain of big fish eating small fish, with a group of ghosts pretending to be humans to observe humans, and a group of immortal monks pretending to be ghosts to observe ghosts.

One day in the future, the immortal cultivator in one of the ghost markets will be exposed, and the ghosts there will probably feel like the sky has fallen.

Several older women, except Yun Qingying, suddenly felt a little unhappy, as if only Tianhu could have a spiritual resonance with Chu Wuji.

Aunt Green Snake snorted unhappily, her tone a bit sour:

"Only an ancient fox spirit could understand the words of the younger generation of Tibetan foxes so well. They understood it immediately. It's really hard for outsiders to understand the fox tribe's bad taste!"

The Fox Goddess pretended to be stupid at this time. She said innocently and pitifully:

"The relationship between me and that little Tibetan fox is not that of a younger generation or an older generation. Our bloodline is far apart, so how can I know what she enjoys?

"I just know the young master better, I know what he thinks in his mind and what he says, that's all, ah!"

This was even more infuriating to hear. Aunt Green Snake couldn't win over the vixen for the time being, so she could only ignore it to avoid suffering more losses.

The review was almost done and it was over in the early morning without me noticing.

The temperature in the mountains rises, the sun shines brightly, and the warmth of spring becomes clear.

Chu Wuji asked, "How far have we walked?"

As the person who corrected his walking direction throughout the whole process, Yun Qingying remembered this incident quite clearly:

"We just climbed over a hill and are now at the foot of it. If we fly high up in the sky, we should be able to see the valley where the ghost market appeared."

In one early morning, they only climbed over one mountain, and there are many such mountains in the Lihuo Mountains.

When the mountain god uses his powers too much, he sometimes indeed regards his own mountains and hills as a small piece of land.

Yun Qingying continued:

"Junior brother, how long do you plan to walk? Are you now reminiscing about the good old days? Or do you intend to explore every corner of the Lihuo Mountains?"

"......Okay, okay, let's go back now." Chu Wuzhi twitched his mouth helplessly.

This girl has become a bit sharp-tongued. When Yao'er was around, she would call him "brother" twice, but now she has changed back to that way.

Chu Wu Ji thought about it and accepted it, and just regarded it as Yun Qingying's way of expressing her emotions.

This girl has a calm expression and may not be able to express her emotions as openly as Wen Yaoer. There is a hint of sarcasm in her words, which makes it easy for Chu Wuji to figure out her thoughts.

You can't always ask the Fox Goddess for help and send emotional signals through the subtle movements of her ears and tail, right?

"By the way, Qingying, you can use the Cloud Leaping Technique to go back. I want to see the mountains in the sky."

Yun Qingying glanced at him. Chu Wuzhi should be able to fly in the mountains and should not need to rely on her to carry him.

The girl with cold eyes didn't care about it too much. After all, Chu Wuji's small request was not a big deal.

She immediately took off into the clouds and flew him high into the sky, controlling the speed at a moderate level so that Chu Wuji could slowly enjoy the scenery of the mountains.

As they flew, Yun Qingying discovered that the city ahead was actually the Jieshi City of Chuhai Kingdom.

When she saw the vast and boundless East China Sea, her mind was stunned.

So, when Li Ming entered the mountain, he had already gone in the wrong direction...

Yun Qingying looked indifferent and asked, "As a mountain god, how could you even lead me in the wrong direction?"

Chu Wuji was extremely embarrassed. Hadn't he reviewed the intelligence from last night? And no one corrected him along the way, so he subconsciously thought he was on the right path.

He raised his sleeves and glanced at Aunt Green Snake: "Aunt, why didn't you remind me?"

Aunt Green Snake opened her mouth, revealing her sharp fangs and tongue, looking ferocious, and cursed angrily:

"Are you putting the blame on your aunt? If you have the guts, don't ask me. Ask the white snake on your other sleeve, or the female ghost on your back, or the fox ears next to you!"

Chu Wuji would never dare to mess with Tai Sui, as that would only bring trouble upon himself.

He used the power of the mountain god to first return to the starting point, Ghost Market, then corrected the wrong route, determined the correct direction, and then let Yun Qingying continue to fly in the clouds.

Yun Qingying's speed was a little faster this time. After allowing Chu Wuji to look at the mountain scenery for a while, he flew back to the Mountain Monarch Cave at full speed. This time, nothing went wrong.

At the entrance of the mountain lion's cave, Yao'er and Xiaotu were sitting on the rocks playing, apparently waiting for Chu Wuzhi and others to come back.

Two pretty little girls were shaking their feet and throwing stones into the river, splashing water for fun.

At Xiaotu's reminder, Wen Yaoer noticed that Chu Wuzhi had returned, and ran over to greet him happily.

The clouds slowly fell to the ground. I don't know if Yun Qingying did it on purpose, but she raised her voice slightly and said:

"Brother, I'm tired after wandering around the ghost market all night last night. I'm going to meditate first."

Wen Yaoer pretended not to hear, but her cheeks became puffy with anger. She walked over with a pout and hugged Chu Wuzhi.

"Brother, is there anything fun in the ghost market? Is it the kind with evil spirits?"

Chu Wuji secretly found it funny. He touched Wen Yaoer's smooth little face and said:

"I'll tell you later while I'm cooking. It's getting late now. It's almost noon."

Chapter 273 The Ghost Idea Was Rejected

"Come, you and Xiaotu sit in a row here."

"Don't we have to pick up twigs to make a fire?"

"No need, just let Sister Qing come and help. You guys just stay here and listen to me slowly."

Before, I cooked slowly to kill time and divert my mothers' attention, calling it "experiencing the joy of the process." But now it's almost time for dinner, and it would be inappropriate to dawdle any longer.

For those steps that can save time, just let Aunt Qingshe come over and "quickly complete" them. Chu Wuji can also devote his attention to chatting with Yaoer.

The focus of this ghost market experience was on the conversation between the owner of the pleasure boat. If Wen Yaoer listened to the content, she probably wouldn't be interested.

Chu Wuji could only use his artistic skills and use his imagination to describe the bizarre and strange scenes after entering the ghost market.

What did the ghost experience in his life, what kind of life is he living now... He described it in detail to the two girls through fabrication.

Aunt Qing Snake had experienced this personally, so she could understand Chu Wuji's difficulties and intentions, but she still wanted to complain after hearing this:

"If you don't know, you'd think you've entered a ghost town. A small, shabby street of about 300 meters is described as a metropolitan city..."

Wen Yaoer was afraid and yearning just by listening to the hideous faces of various ghosts. She asked:

"Didn't these conscious ghosts attack my brother?"

...attack me? Yun Qingying probably wanted to see something like this happen. It would be best if there was an arrogant ghost like a street bully in the ghost market.

However, the ghosts who choose to stroll in the ghost market have a certain idea of ​​abiding by the rules. They are not the kind of evil ghosts with deep resentment, and they would not bother to cause trouble for him and Yun Qingying for no reason.

A huge ghost was pressing on his back.

Chu Wuji deliberately said with lingering fear: "The ghosts almost discovered that I was alive. Fortunately, I had the help of that goddess at that time, otherwise, those ghosts would have turned their ferocious sides towards me."

"Is it so scary?" Wen Yaoer felt the same way and patted her chest, which was not suitable for her age, in fear.

Aunt Green Snake couldn't bear to expose the truth, so she asked Bai Sujin curiously:

"Sister, who is the owner of that pleasure boat? Why is he staying on a boat?"

Bai Sujin was sitting with two little girls. She wanted to help her son, but Chu Wuji didn't want her to worry about such trivial matters, so he asked her to accompany the little girls and pinch their faces for fun.

The gentle and dignified White Snake lady, while helping Yao'er and Xiaotu to braid their hair, replied:

"The owner of the pleasure boat didn't say it explicitly, but there are bits and pieces of information. I suspect she was a prostitute in a music brothel. After struggling to redeem herself, she scrimped and saved money to buy a pleasure boat. The moment she secured the deal, the spirit that had held her together vanished, and she tragically starved to death. Her obsession remained on her beloved pleasure boat, but she didn't harbor any resentment or hatred."

Unless they are ghost cultivators, ordinary ghosts will leave traces of the cause of death.

The owner of the pleasure boat looked so thin that one could tell the cause of his death.

Most of the women in music troupes were of low status. After regaining their freedom, there were not many jobs where they could make a living through music without having to worry about their superiors. Becoming the owner of a pleasure boat should be a more desirable goal.

It is like a displaced person hoping for a stable home, or a tenant farmer who works for others hoping to own his own fertile land.

The owner of the pleasure boat probably dreamed of sailing around the big cities and winning the cheers and praises of scholars with her music. However, before the pleasure boat could set out, she starved to death on the boat and became a pleasure boat ghost.

But she seemed quite satisfied at the time. She must have felt that after becoming a ghost, traveling around became more convenient, and the pleasure boat could even be driven onto land.

*

After the anomalies in the Lihuo Mountains were confirmed, Chu Wuji took a walk and chatted with his elders in the valley after lunch. He then found a place and started to think about practicing seriously.

This is the original intention of this trip into the mountains. With the spiritual blessing of the Lihuo Mountains, we can practice where we should practice, and then spend time with our elders when we need to relax.

The Sky Fox Goddess landed on top of his head. If Yao'er and the others hadn't been there, the Sky Fox Goddess would have wanted to ride on his neck for fun.

She said, "Since my young master has been able to feel and resonate with the innate spirit, it doesn't matter if there is no progress for the time being. Why not try to use qi and blood to flush other parts of your body?"

The importance of the Yongquan acupoint on the sole of the foot is no less than that between the eyebrows~"

Chu Wuji did not obey immediately. He first expressed his thoughts:

"Once the Qi and blood are depleted, one becomes weak and has difficulty thinking things through. Recently, I've had an idea. I wonder if I can cultivate my Yuan Shen."

"Little Master, tell me~"

After Lady Sky Fox finished speaking, Ning Xianzhi and Bai Sujin came over to see what their children were up to.

Although they didn't like each other, Chu Wuji was focused on cultivation, so they wouldn't disturb him rashly, but just watched quietly.

Chu Wuji took out the "Martial Arts Classics", turned to the previous page, and talked about his idea of ​​using the "Quenching Blood into the Blade" to "harass" the innate spirit.

"Pavilion Master Fan said that if the source of the demon blood is not dead, it has the ability to control the tempered weapon."

"Then I will temper the blood essence in the Yuanshen Cave into the giant anvil blade. There are many things I can try. Either I can influence the Yuanshen by swinging the sword, or I can swing the sword through the Yuanshen. There is a lot of potential!"

The mothers were deeply worried about his strange ideas.

The Sky Fox Goddess reminded him, "You can't play around with your soul. Your soul is so young and fragile. Do you still want to take a few drops of blood out of it?"

To put it bluntly, it was already missing a small corner, and now a few drops of essence and blood have been taken away. The future growth of this soul will most likely be affected.

Bai Sujin agreed deeply, and her tone became much more severe:

"That's right. Rushing to improve your strength will only lead to problems. The last time I resonated with the Yuan Shen was a blessing and a fluke. I can't do that this time!"

Ning Xianzhi rarely showed coldness and harshness to Chu Wuji, frowning and reproaching:

"It's fine if you try to resonate with the soul through strange methods, and it won't hurt if you fail, but I will never agree if you want to cut your own blood and essence from your body!

If you have such thoughts again, I will take back the "Martial Classics"!"

Chu Wuji felt a huge pressure for a moment, he gave in and clarified:

"Then I won't cut off my blood essence, but just try using the blood and energy cultivated in the Primordial Spirit Cave. That shouldn't be harmful, right?"

The three mothers could still accept this plan. At least if it failed, it would not affect his soul.

What Chu Wuji lacks the least is qi and blood.

However, considering that the child has a lot of creative ideas, several elders feel that they cannot let him think about things randomly, otherwise he will come up with a new idea after a while.

When Bai Sujin came over just now, she heard the fox girl's words. She said:

"Just now, Senior Tianhu said, Wuji, you can try to hit the Yongquan acupoint on the sole of your foot, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong..." Chu Wuzhi turned his head to look at the White Snake Mother.

"Then drain your Qi and blood first. When your Qi and blood are weak, your mind will naturally become dull and sluggish. Focus on these martial arts techniques first, and don't let your thoughts wander!"

"..."

Chu Wuji never expected that Bai Sujin, worried that he would "harm his soul", would actually say such cruel words.

Before, Bai Sujin would feel distressed when she saw him losing energy and blood...

However, losing energy and blood is not a big deal. Chu Wuji has long been accustomed to it. Now, at most, he will recover in two or three days to return to his peak state.

However, he was worried that in the next two or three days, the three mothers would compete to help him with his treatment, which would be a big trouble!
