After saying that, Shen Yi bit down on the granite, made a gap, and then spat out the gravel.
"But if you can't make it, hehe..." There was a malicious look in his eyes.
Seeing this, Tsurumi Chuyun's unwillingness to admit defeat rose up in her bones, but she didn't say anything and continued to open the book and read from the beginning.
Seeing her frown, Shen Yi smiled inwardly, although he also hoped that the old witch could become an alchemist. But the probability of becoming an alchemist is too low.
Desperately low.
He didn't have much hope that Tsurumi Chuyun could become an alchemist.
Shaking his head, he began to digest the red energy. After pulling a seven-level Tianyin Wanling Explosion to eight levels, he quickly stopped.
He was using less red energy now, so he had to save it.
But continuing like this is not an option.
In order not to go hungry, he had to be prepared to go without any improvement for half a year.
Sighing inwardly, he could only sleep.
Since coming out of Wuchuan, Shen Yi has kept his eyes closed in the morning and afternoon.
There was no other reason than that he suspected Chen Xingyun was looking for him.
Likewise, Shen Yi has not shared his perspective in the past few days.
The crackling sound of dry firewood burning made the grassland under the night sky even more peaceful.
When Shen Yi woke up in the morning, he opened his eyes and found He Jian Chuyun sitting among the branches of a tree, still reading the "Little Alchemy Sutra".
"Old witch."
"Um?"
"You didn't sleep all night?"
"Yes." She nodded, with some tiredness in her eyes, but she persisted in not falling asleep. Just like yesterday, she frowned and kept her eyes on the book.
After responding, she forced herself to cheer up and continue to understand the meaning of every word in the book.
But then she remembered something and jumped down from the tree.
"Let's go, I'll take you to take a bath."
Shen Yi nodded and followed her to a clear river. He watched her pull up the hem of her clothes, lift up her white trouser legs, take out a copper basin from the storage space, and then scoop out a basin of water.
"Open your mouth."
Shen Yi opened his mouth, and she quickly poured all the water in the basin into his mouth.
Gurgling.
After rinsing his mouth, Shen Yi spit out the water, watched her take out a brush, sprinkled some ash wrapped with sawdust on the bristles, and then brushed her teeth.
The taste in Shen Yi's mouth seemed really bad. She covered her nose and mouth halfway through the process. She was disgusted but also very concerned about it. She brushed the canines with great force until there was no more smell in his mouth. After smelling something strange, he slowly stopped.
After rinsing his mouth, he lay down comfortably, waiting for her to give him a bath, but when he looked back, his eyes widened.
"Wait!"
"Um?"
"No, the brush I use to brush my teeth is the same one I use to take a shower?"
"Can't you?"
"Fuck it!"
"Then what do you want?"
"Buy me a new one. Really, I'm surprised. Why does that brush smell like earth? What did you use it for before?"
"Brush... brush the soles of the shoes... but they have already been brushed. Can I buy them for you later?"
"You will give me some food in the future. How can I be a maid like you and not know this?"
"I was wrong, Master."
Seeing her weak apology, Shen Yi curled her lips, took a sip of water from the basin, rinsed her mouth again and spit it out, too lazy to worry about it.
"Wash quickly."
"oh."
Feeling the feeling of the brush constantly brushing against the scales, this was the second time the old witch bathed herself. Her technique was a little more skillful than the first time, but still very unfamiliar.
With his eyes closed, Shen Yi thought about the old witch's planned path and couldn't help but say: "Old witch."
"What's wrong."
"You said that when you left Jizhou and headed east, the first dynasty you passed was Dajing, right?"
"Um."
"I heard that the prostitution industry is prevalent in Dajing, and the abduction and trafficking of women are common. There are almost no women walking around outside. You girls are all in the family. If you walk outside alone, you are afraid of being stared at. Do you want a girl then? Disguised as a man?"
"What is prostitution?"
"Brothet." Shen Yi replied casually, not thinking it was anything, but he didn't see that Tsurumi Chuyun, who was helping him clean up behind him, blushed when he heard this, but he soon returned to normal.
The national style in the Great Scenery is open, and the existence of Quxian Wuyi has made countless men crazy about it, making the number of romantic places there ridiculous. Countless wealthy businessmen from other countries have come here to take a look. The beauty of Quxian’s dancing clothes.
Because of this, Dajing's treasury is full, and the royal family and nobles are all rich. Spending money is nothing to them.
But the disadvantages of this are also obvious, that is, a large number of powerful organizations traffic people for profit, especially women, who are in danger when they go out.
Shen Yi also understood it, but why did he understand it?
You have to ask the disciples of Qingyuan Sect...
In short, after entering Dajing, Tsurumi Chuyun is the most dangerous existence. Although she disguises herself as "Jiang Yiyi" and her appearance is not as stunning as her real appearance, she is also very delicate and has a strong influence on human trafficking in Dajing. It is also a very good target choice for organizations.
And the most important thing is that the old witch is a practitioner and can satisfy more clients' perverted desire to conquer the strong.
Perhaps by borrowing Shen Yi's power and cooperating with Shen Yi, she can not be afraid of some weak human traffickers, but the problem is that there is an organization behind every human trafficker. Killing their people means that they will provoke The organization behind them.
Unless she is so strong that no one dares to offend her, the danger level in Dajing will be no less than in Daliang.
It's a pity that the old witch's cultivation is far from mature, so what Shen Zhi thought of was what she wanted to do.
"Well, when I enter the Great Scenery, I will dress up as a man."
"What about your voice? You won't pretend to be mute when you enter Dajing, right?" Shen Yi said this sentence a bit convoluted, and she didn't understand it. After she realized it, she said, "I have a way to do this."
"As long as you have a way, don't cause a lot of trouble then." Shen Yi nodded. He didn't know what the old witch would do. She just had to know what she was doing.
If most of the people can escape from the Tsurumi Mansion, not to mention the large number, only one spiritual monk is needed, and there is basically no need to worry about these when entering the Great Scenery, but the old witch is alone and has no background, so she is the best to bully of that category.
It's easy for a woman to disguise herself as a man, but how to change her voice?
Buy a magic weapon?
Not to mention the old witch, Shen Yi's own conscience was so bad that he couldn't buy anything even if he took out the two hundred taels of silver from the storage space.
Magical instruments are very expensive.
…
The bath lasted for more than an hour, and more than 80% of the time was spent on brushing teeth. She used a brush to scrub Shen Yi's whole body, and finally scooped up water from a copper basin to rinse it, and then put everything away Put it away and said: "That's it."
Shaking off the excess water on his body, Shen Yi wanted to leave, but the next second He Jian Chuyun said: "You should go back first."
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll wash it too."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Shen Yi lay back down directly, "Then you can wash it, I won't disturb you."
"You can go back first."
"Why?"
"You..." He Jianchuyun frowned, and the next second he understood Shen Yi's attitude. This guy wanted to stay here and watch him take a shower.
"Dirty dragon! Rogue! Traitor!" She clenched her fists and cursed in her heart.
She also knew that she couldn't drive Shen Yi away, so she didn't say anything useless on the surface. After squatting by the river, she took out a handkerchief and soaked it, then scrubbed it through her clothes. Naturally, the scene Shen Yi wanted to see didn't happen.
This defense is so tight, what can Shen Yi say?
I still want to feel better...
This time it was better, he immediately became listless, lying on the ground not knowing what to think about.
But not long after, he felt something strange in his hind legs. When he looked back, he saw the slender figure with patterns, which frightened him to the point where his mind went blank.
"Fuck! Snake!" After coming back to his senses, he shouted uncontrollably. Not far away, Tsurumi Chuyun also turned his head to look here.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing her voice, Shen Yi forced himself to calm down.
"Oh, it's okay."
"Oh..." Hejian Chuyun looked at him suspiciously, and when he saw Shen Yi acting like nothing had happened, he temporarily put down his guard, turned around and picked up the hem of his clothes, and pulled up his trouser legs a little further. Revealing shapely calves.
Then she took off her shoes and stepped into the water with her pink feet.
When she looked away, Shen Yi quickly turned around, stretched out his dragon claws and grabbed the "big brother".
When the body was touched, the snake twisted wildly, opened its mouth and bit, but the scales on Shen Yi's claws were too hard to leave any traces.
Seeing that this guy had no ability to resist in front of him, Shen Yi's instinctive fear of snakes also subsided.
"Hey, you little guy."
After looking at the old witch, Shen Yi threw the snake to the shore behind her, but unfortunately, the snake just happened to pass by his feet and was unwilling to provoke creatures larger than himself. After landing on the ground, he twisted his body and quickly got into the grass.
"Gan!"
Seeing that it was so cowardly, Shen Yi was a little reluctant, but he rolled his eyes and suddenly said loudly: "Old witch! Eels, there are eels!"
"Eel? Where?" Tsurumi Chuyun immediately cheered up when he heard there was an eel. She was hungry.
Shen Yi pointed at a random place, and when she saw it, she stretched out her hand to touch the bottom of the water. Who would have thought that Shen Yi would say: "Fuck! It's a snake!"
After that, he got up and ran back.
ah!
The other party's screams sounded behind him, and Shen Yi felt happy.
After doing this, He Jian Chuyun didn't dare to wash it anymore, so he quickly went ashore, picked up his embroidered shoes and chased Shen Yi.
"You scared me!"
"What scares you? There are snakes! If you don't believe me, look for them yourself."
"Then why are you running?"
"I'm afraid too."
"You are also afraid...you..." Tsurumi Chuyun felt angry, but then he noticed an important point, paused in his words, and stopped in his steps.
Is he afraid of snakes too?
…
After that, He Jian Chuyun didn't take Shen Yi on the way, but stayed at the camp with granite and didn't go anywhere. Shen Yi just watched her and thought hard about the contents of the Little Alchemy Sutra.
This lasted for two days. On the third night, when Shen Yi caught two fish and roasted them beside the fire, looking at her painful look, he couldn't help but said: "Old witch, I really can't learn this." Otherwise, we should hurry up. Instead of wasting time here, we might as well get to Zhu's house as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Hejian Chuyun put down his book and looked at his eyelashes trembling without saying a word for a long time.
"Huh? You speak!"
"I'll try again..."
"I knew you couldn't make it. If anyone could become an alchemist, those pills wouldn't be so expensive." Shen Yi said rudely. He no longer had any hope in his heart.
She was silent, looking into the distance wondering why she was in a daze.
"Can I give you an accurate letter?" He asked again, but how did Tsurumi Chuyun answer?
Shen Yi couldn't understand the contents of the Little Alchemy Sutra. Although she could understand it, the mysteries mentioned in it were so mysterious that it tested one's understanding and ability. She had no confidence in whether she could pass the threshold of becoming an alchemist.
This was also the reason why Shen Yi made a bet with her and she didn't dare to respond directly.
Sighing, she said, "Give me some time."
"how long?"
"A month..." She said a little uncertainly. Shen Yi almost rolled his eyes when he heard this and just said it.
"Whatever you want." Looking at the two fishes on the fire, seeing that they were almost cooked, Shen Yi picked up one of them and ate it happily.
The alluring fragrance spread in the air, and Tsurumi Chuyun couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Can you... give me one..." she said.
Shen Yi looked at her. She hadn't been anywhere else in the past few days. She just stayed here and read. She didn't see her practicing. Shen Yi had never eaten anything and was greedy, so she did this by herself. Two fish.
The possibility of her becoming an alchemist is almost zero, but she hasn't realized it yet. She stubbornly goes on and does nothing. As the master, she still knows how to make enough food and clothing by herself. Now that the fish is roasted, she wants to One?
Who is the master and who is the servant?
He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but seeing her pitiful look was so unbearable that he finally relented.
"...Okay, I'll give this to you."
"Thank you!" After Shen Yi agreed, she quickly reached out and picked up the bamboo pole with the grilled fish on it. She opened her mouth and was about to eat, but Shen Yi stopped her.
"Wait!"
"ah?"
"How did you say thank you?"
"I..." Tsurumi Chuyun was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses. After taking a long breath, he slowly said: "Thank you, Master~...Is that possible?"
"Not bad." Shen Yi nodded.
"Don't forget it again."
He was speechless when he saw Chuyun.
"You've said it several times."
"I know."
"Then can I eat it?"
"You eat it."
She breathed a sigh of relief, and then took a bite of the grilled fish safely. The delicious taste of the fish bloomed on her taste buds, and a look of satisfaction suddenly appeared on her face. However, when she took the second bite, she looked at the fish being processed. The clean grilled fish fell into deep thought.
In her eyes, Shen Yi has always been a big lizard with wings and a weird appearance. Although it is not a human, in her subconscious, Shen Yi is almost indistinguishable from a human. This makes her feel very strange, so weird. , it’s hard to describe in words.
Over at Shen Yi, after finishing the grilled fish, he ate two freshly grilled fish maws, then lay down on the granite and whittled the wood with his sharp claws.
As for why he did this?
Don't ask, it's free if you ask.
Without a mobile phone or the Internet, he could only pass the time in this way.
He was humming a song while peeling. This melody he had never heard before made Tsurumi Chuyun startled. He couldn't help but raise his head and asked: "What are you humming?"
Shen Yi said casually: "The wind is blowing." (End of chapter)
