Three quarters of the hour.
Passing the lit lantern to Chu Qinghe's hand, looking at Chu Qinghe's still casual appearance, Yao Yue said, "Aren't you worried about things at Shenshui Palace at all?"
After hanging the lantern under the eaves, Chu Qinghe said smoothly: "What is there to worry about? Aren't there still you guys?"
The saying that a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake is no joke.
Although Shenshui Palace is a top power, it is located north of the Ming Dynasty.
But in this northwest land, in terms of influence, Shenshui Palace is not even as good as the Sun and Moon God Sect.
Not to mention that at this time, Chu Qinghe's family had gathered two leaders from the Sun Moon God Sect and Yihua Palace.
Even if the Shenshui Palace has any ideas, they can only think about it.
Facing the reasons given by Chu Qinghe, Yao Yue looked slightly startled. Apparently she didn't expect that Chu Qinghe actually wanted to hide behind the two of them after the accident.
On the other hand, Dongfang Bubai on the side was not surprised at all by the reason given by Chu Qinghe.
But regarding Chu Qinghe's explanation at this time, Yao Yue not only had no dissatisfaction at all, but said with a smile on her lips: "You can see it clearly."
While talking, Yao Yue glanced at Chu Qinghe's handsome face.
Inexplicably, I felt that Chu Qinghe was unpretentious and hypocritical.
He was indeed a man that she could fall in love with.
Dongfang Bubai, who was on the side, looked at Yao Yue's reaction with a bit of disgust and disdain in his eyes.
"anthomaniac!"
After meal.
In the pool.
At this time, Qu Feiyan was facing the sky, his upper body was motionless, but his two legs in the water were kicking one after another. From time to time, a salted fish turned over and splashed a little.
Sometimes he dived into the water, and then a "wow" sound suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Zhao, which made Xiao Zhao startled, and then he looked at Qu Feiyan angrily.
That's called joy.
It wasn't until Dongfang Bubai vigorously slapped him on the head that he reluctantly settled down and hugged Xiao Zhao for comfort.
Opposite the curtain, the Chu Qing River was sitting quietly in the pool, letting the water soak in it to wash away all the fatigue.
Once some habits are formed, they are not very good after all.
Just like Chu Qinghe, although his body is said to be lazy, his mind is still always active.
Every time I encounter something, I always overthink it unconsciously, and my thoughts are not easy to stop.
Later, lying on the edge of the pool, looking at the stars in the sky, and occasionally taking a sip of wine, Chu Qinghe's thoughts became slightly calmer.
It was also when several people were washing away their fatigue in the fragrant water.
Suddenly, a wave of fluctuation came quickly from the other side of the curtain.
Then, the originally calm water waves began to stir up due to the waves of waves coming from Yao Yue's body.
Almost at the moment when this wave of fluctuations reverberated, Dongfang Bubai's eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly opened, and his eyes immediately locked onto Yaoyue opposite him.
His brows wrinkled unconsciously.
Qu Feiyan felt the fluctuation of cultivation in Yao Yue's body at this moment, and his eyes widened.
"Another breakthrough?"
Just forget about Dongfang Bubai's breakthrough in this pool yesterday.
After all, the ingredients Chu Qinghe added to the pool yesterday could improve his skill.
But today, the medicinal wine and medicinal materials that Chu Qinghe added to the pool were to warm and nourish the meridians.
Yao Yue was able to break through this, but in Qu Feiyan's opinion, it was more or less unjustifiable.
Here, as the breath quickly calmed down and she felt the sudden increase in energy in her body, Yao Yue couldn't help but have a bit of joy on her face.
Different from the past, Yao Yue basically only practiced in the morning and after returning to the room at night.
Because of the excitement of Dongfang Bubai and the Nine-Leaf Nine-Heart Grass, Yao Yue has been practicing since last night.
Although it's not as good as being in seclusion, it's not much different.
If it were in the past, even Yao Yue would not be able to do this kind of sleepless practice.
After all, this kind of ascetic practice, which is similar to retreat, will inevitably cause damage to the body's meridians in the long run.
Generally speaking, the damage caused by this kind of meridians also requires a long period of warming to recover.
But on the Chu Qing River side, Chu Qing River brewed these medicinal wines that were enough to warm and nourish the meridians, so Yao Yue did not need to estimate the burden on the meridians after long-term practice.
And now, the result is the same as Yao Yue expected.
In the past two days, supplemented by Chu Qinghe's medicinal wines that can increase one's skills, coupled with this high-intensity practice, as the meridians of the body in the bath were repaired, the practice barrier that had been touched was also successfully repaired. rushed away.
After the joy of the breakthrough calmed down a little, Yaoyue's eyes paused for a few breaths in the red water, and then glanced across the curtain.
Not sure what she was thinking of, the smile on Yao Yue's lips grew a little thicker unconsciously.
Compared to the breakthrough in cultivation, another thing Yao Yue discovered at this time made Yao Yue feel more happy than the breakthrough in cultivation.
Originally, Yao Yue was thinking about going to the wine room later to get medicinal wine to warm and nourish the meridians to deal with the problem of the meridians in her body.
But he never thought that the medicinal wine and medicinal materials that Chu Qinghe added to the pool today were used to warm and nourish the meridians.
In other words, Chu Qinghe has been paying attention to Yao Yue's situation, so he made this adjustment.
Naturally, compared to the breakthrough in cultivation, the thoughts of the man on the other side of the curtain made Yaoyue feel even more joyful.
After a while, as the other women returned to the courtyard one after another, Chu Qinghe took a glance and asked curiously: "Where is that girl Feiyan?"
Hearing Chu Qinghe's question, Xiao Zhao whispered: "Feiyan saw Sister Dongfang and Sister Yue breaking through in the pool one after another, and said that they would soak in the pool every day until the water in the pool dries up."
Chu Qinghe: "."
After hearing Xiao Zhao's words, even Chu Qinghe couldn't help but feel speechless.
After Yao Yue drank the wine mixed with Nine-leaf Nine-Heart Grass and other medicines and successfully entered the master realm, Qu Feiyan returned to the inner courtyard with his lips curled.
What greeted Qu Feiyan was Chu Qinghe's eyes as if looking at a fool.
It caused the little girl to curse again and again.
After Yao Yue's zhenqi fluctuations were completely stable, his eyes immediately turned to Dongfang Bubai.
The meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer.
"Practice?"
Facing Yao Yue's eyes that were full of fighting spirit at this moment, Dongfang Bubai narrowed his eyes slightly and started to feel his energy flowing without saying any nonsense.
The next moment, as two figures flickered, only Chu Qinghe, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao were left in the courtyard.
Looking at Xiao Zhao with a somewhat dull look on his face, Qu Feiyan waved his hand and said, "Just get used to it! Sister Dongfang and Sister Yue are like this often. Just don't worry about you when you see them in the future."
After listening to Qu Feiyan's words, Xiao Zhao paused and nodded slightly.
Later, after asking Qu Feiyan to take out the playing cards, the three of them started fighting over the landlord in the courtyard.
Zishi.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve slept too much in the past few days, or if it’s because I was depressed from the beginning to the end when I lost the mahjong game.
When returning to the room, Chu Qinghe felt a little sleepless.
After tossing and turning for a while without feeling sleepy, Chu Qinghe could only put on his clothes, then opened the door and entered the wine room.
However, just when he took out a bottle of wine and looked at the reflection in the courtyard, Chu Qinghe let out a soft "Eh".
Then his body jumped up and down on the roof, and he saw Xiao Zhao, who was sitting on his roof with his chin in his hands and was lost in thought.
He slowly took a few steps forward and sat down next to Xiao Zhao.
Sensing the movement beside him, Xiao Zhao quickly turned his head.
When he saw Chu Qinghe beside him, Xiao Zhao's heart dropped again and he quickly said: "Young Master."
"Um!"
After taking a sip of wine, Chu Qinghe handed the wine bottle in his hand to Xiao Zhao.
After looking at the wine bottle, Xiao Zhao took it with both hands and took a sip.
However, when the wine entered his mouth, the spicy taste made Xiao Zhao couldn't help coughing twice.
"Sir, this wine is so strong."
Chu Qinghe said softly: "The name of the wine is General Ling. It tastes a little stronger, but even if you drink too much, it won't hurt your head or stomach the next day."
After taking the flask and taking another sip, and then spitting out the hot alcohol, Chu Qinghe dragged his chin with one hand and looked at the sky and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Facing Chu Qinghe's question, Xiao Zhao gently shook his head.
But after shaking his head, Xiao Zhao hesitated a little, and then said: "I just feel that every day I feel empty in my heart and always a little worried."
After listening to Xiao Zhao's words, Chu Qinghe thought for a while and then said: "Do you think your life these two days has been great?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zhao nodded slightly and said "Yeah".
She can wash, cook, and clean housework. These few points are enough to show that Xiao Zhao was not a spoiled and spoiled lady before.
Because of this, Xiao Zhao also knew what life was like during these two days at Chu Qinghe's home.
There is no need to worry about livelihood, no scolding and intrigues, all kinds of precious medicines that can improve the martial artist's skills and cultivation, and every night's bath.
No matter which one it was, it was all good and made Xiao Zhao feel unreal.
Even in my dreams before, I had never dreamed of such a day.
Taking Xiao Zhao's reaction into account, Chu Qinghe couldn't understand Xiao Zhao's problem at the moment.
To put it simply, it is a lack of security.
That's how people are sometimes.
If your life is bad, you can't help but complain.
But once life suddenly becomes comfortable, you will feel insecure because of this sudden comfort.
After all, it is too rare to live a life full of leisure and ease every day like in the courtyard of Chu Qinghe.
In response to this, Chu Qinghe took another sip of wine and said slowly: "Some things, over time, you will naturally get used to. If you have to give yourself a reason, just treat it as a reward after all the hardships!"
While talking, Chu Qinghe handed the wine bottle to Xiao Zhao.
Life is really hard to say sometimes.
Some people are born with no worries about food and clothing, while some people spend their whole lives struggling just to have enough food and clothing.
Chu Qinghe himself has also struggled hard since he was young, so Chu Qinghe naturally understands the hardships of life.
It is also for this reason that Chu Qinghe is very satisfied with his current life.
There is no need to think about livelihood every day, no need to work overtime to socialize, just rise at sunrise and rest at sunset, play mahjong in the evening, and make some kebabs when you are hungry.
To a certain extent, the current Chu Qinghe can be regarded as having a happy ending after suffering to a certain extent.
Listening to Chu Qinghe's words beside him, Xiao Zhao looked thoughtful.
After a few breaths, Xiao Zhao took a sip of wine.
After the spicy taste in his mouth subsided a little, Xiao Zhao suddenly said: "Young Master, if one day Xiao Zhao does something wrong, such as deceiving Young Master, will Young Master drive Xiao Zhao away?"
Faced with Xiao Zhao's sudden move to the mountainside and even some inexplicable words, Chu Qinghe didn't have any surprised look on his face, and still had that casual feeling on his face.
Under Xiao Zhao's gaze, Chu Qinghe asked, "Then will you harm me, your young master?"
Xiao Zhao didn't hesitate at all and said hastily: "Young Master has saved Xiao Zhao's life, and he has been so kind to Xiao Zhao these days. Xiao Zhao will naturally not harm Young Master. If Young Master doesn't believe it, Xiao Zhao can swear it."
Looking at Xiao Zhao, who looked serious and eager but childishly wanted to convince himself by swearing, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but smile.
Then he said: "Everyone has their own little secrets. This is human nature. Since you said you won't harm me, it doesn't matter if you lie or not."
As he said that, Chu Qinghe turned his head and looked at the dazed little girl beside him. He then raised his hand and touched Xiao Zhao's head. He said in a lazy voice: "Don't think so much if you don't have enough brains. It's good to be silly."
Faced with what Chu Qinghe said, Xiao Zhao whispered: "But Xiao Zhao is worried that he will cause trouble to the young master like today."
In response, Chu Qinghe said calmly: "When you encounter trouble, just solve it! It is inevitable in life."
Although Chu Qinghe was not interested in trouble, he was not afraid of it.
What's more, although it's nice to have a peaceful life sometimes, it can become boring after a long time.
Sometimes, if there are more innocuous troubles, it should be regarded as some adjustments.
What's more, based on Chu Qinghe's understanding of Xiao Zhao, Chu Qinghe can basically guess the so-called trouble Xiao Zhao mentioned.
It's troublesome, but it's just that.
After saying that, Chu Qinghe patted Xiao Zhao on the head and said: "If you don't have enough brain, don't think too much. It's okay if you don't use your brain when you are in the yard. You just need to know that if anyone wants to bully the young master in the future, you Help me beat the young master and beat him. If the young master wants to bully, you can also help the young master beat him. What the young master says is always right."
However, after listening to Chu Qinghe's words, Xiao Zhao said weakly: "But the things you mentioned, Master, seem to be done by gang thugs, not like maids."
Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "What did I say in the last sentence just now?"
Xiao Zhao thought for a while and then said: "Young Master is always right."
Chu Qinghe nodded, and then said: "That's alright, listen to me from now on. For the rest, if the sky falls, you will have the young master to support you. Why do you think so much about other things? Learn more from Feiyan Nanizi, every day How heartless it is."
Listening to Chu Qinghe's words, Xiao Zhao nodded seriously: "Xiao Zhao understands."
"Here, drink!"
"Sir, it seems that it doesn't taste so spicy now."
"Don't you think it's spicy enough? How about I add some spices?"
"Forget it, this is fine for now."
"Let's go! You can't see the moon from this angle, so let's go to the roof of my house!"
"Um!"
The moonlight was like hazy, falling in the courtyard at this time, and also shining on the large and small figures on the roof.
Under the star-studded night sky, with the soothing and gentle voice of Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao's originally anxious little heart began to gradually calm down.
The smile also began to linger on Xiao Zhao's face.
In the room, listening to the sounds and movements coming from the roof at this time, Dongfang Bubai by the window also smiled softly when he looked up at the roof.
"This guy is quite skilled at soothing people."
While chuckling, Dongfang Bubai, who looked away, seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly looked towards the opposite room where Yao Yue was.
The next moment, as his eyes condensed, Dongfang Bubai also saw Yao Yue, who was also standing by the window.
After a moment, Dongfang Bubai and Yao Yue looked at each other, and both received the same message from the other's eyes.
"This woman didn't rest in the middle of the night but secretly peeped!"
After understanding the meaning of each other's eyes, the two women narrowed their eyes together.
After snorting almost simultaneously, the two women closed the windows and couldn't see anything.
At the same time, Chu Qinghe on the roof slowly turned his head as if he felt something.
But as he glanced around the courtyard several times, Chu Qinghe couldn't find anything unusual.
Seeing this, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but murmured, "Why did I seem to hear those two snorting just now? Could it be that I was hallucinating?"
However, before Chu Qinghe could figure this out, a voice suddenly echoed in Chu Qinghe's mind.
But it is a prompt for system sign-in and update.
In response to this, Chu Qinghe put his hand on Xiao Zhao's head and thought silently in his heart.
"System, sign in."
Later, while Chu Qinghe was waiting, system prompts also appeared one after another.
[Ding, it is detected that the host has a "special sign-in card", do you want to use it? 】
"Sure"
[Ding, the "special sign-in card" was used successfully. Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting a thousand taels of gold. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting the sword realm card (human and sword combined). 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the special medicine, 1 bottle of Tianxiang Cardamom. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Black Jade Sky Silk*1. 】
[Ding, congratulations to the host for getting the martial arts upgrade card*1. 】
[The reward has been automatically stored in the system backpack, please check and withdraw it by yourself. 】
As system prompts popped up one after another, Chu Qinghe was able to determine that this item was of extraordinary value just from looking at these prompts.
And when Chu Qinghe's attention quickly shifted and he checked the system backpack, Chu Qinghe let out a "whoop" in his heart.
"Big bang!"
I made a few revisions today, so I'm a little late! Forgive me!
