Hidden moth

Chapter 249: Changde is inseparable from the taste of tea

As the saying goes, "A master can only lead you to the door, but the practice is up to you." With the same sword-wielding skills, it is difficult for others to achieve Mei Guyu's achievements, and everyone must find the path that suits them best.

For example, He Kao has a special feeling for the crane-shaped sword. If it is combined with the moth wings, it will have a different effect. He can't help but be very tempted, but he certainly can't use it in his own yard.

The best place to practice was, of course, Piaocai Cave Heaven. If it were any other day, he would have turned around and gone there. But after being scolded by Elder Li just now, and at such a sensitive time, he held back.

Once he entered the cave, he would be cut off from the outside world and would not be able to respond to any situation. The more important reason was that he had only just begun to learn the sword style and he had to practice it until he was proficient before he could talk about the rest.

On the first day, I wanted to cooperate with Moth Wing to perform some crane-shaped sword-flying. It was like wanting to play basketball before I even learned to walk.

He practiced for about an hour and mastered the introductory sword moves. With his current level of cultivation, it was not difficult at all. A thin layer of sweat broke out all over his body, and some unknown restlessness in his chest seemed to be relieved a lot.

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, He Kao sat down in the main hall to drink tea. He rarely sat down to drink tea in peace before. Perhaps it was because of his work and life pace that he had no time to develop this habit.

But several masters he knew seemed to like this, appearing very comfortable and relaxed. Today he was also imitating the masters, and he actually looked somewhat like them, but only somewhat.

He wasn't chatting with anyone or checking his phone. He just sat at the table, sipping tea. There was a thermos next to him for refills, and a coaster on the table, but he didn't put his cup on it.

It was a bamboo lotus leaf-shaped tea coaster. It did not touch the table surface, and there was a gap of less than half a millimeter between the bottom and the table surface. In fact, it was floating in the air, but it was difficult to see.

With He Kao's ability to control objects, it is easy for him to lift a tea coaster in mid-air, but it is not easy to keep it still for a long time. If there is any slight disturbance in the control, the tea coaster will hit the table and make a slight sound.

Every time I heard it, it felt like Elder Li was whispering in my ear, "Look, your concentration isn't up to par yet!"

He Kao didn't stare at the coaster. He just drank tea as if nothing had happened, but the way he drank the tea seemed a little unnatural, giving people an inexplicable feeling of holding it in the palm of his hand.

No matter what kind of magic you cast, it's actually a state of lucid concentration, technically called knowing the constant, meaning you can concentrate at any time. Otherwise, when fighting with others, would you have to let your opponent wait, sit down and concentrate before you can cast your spell?

He Kao's drinking of tea and refilling of water did not affect the control of objects. When he held the teacup without any unnecessary movements, the coaster could usually remain very stable, but when he stood up to refill the water, a noise would often be heard.

Aside from the occasional beep, the coaster stays put most of the time.

He Kao sipped his tea for almost another hour before the coaster finally fell back onto the table. Concentration itself was a difficult concept to describe, but Elder Li had taught him a very intuitive way to measure it.

There are many reasons why the coaster finally fell, including a lack of mana, mental fatigue, etc., but as long as the coaster fell, it can be said that the concentration was not enough.

The cup of tea had been refilled with water many times and had become quite bland by the end. However, He Kao could not taste any flavor from beginning to end. When he came to his senses, he realized that he could have been holding up even by drinking water, so he quickly ran to the toilet.

When he checked his phone while going to the bathroom, he happened to see a message from Gao Xue'e asking him about his work progress today. It seemed normal. When he looked at the time again, it was already 10:30 in the evening.

If other people saw this scene, they would definitely complain that this supervisor was difficult to please. He Kao thought for a moment and replied, "Don't worry, boss. It will be done in a short while."

He confirmed once again that he was not being secretly monitored, then got up and went up to the third floor. During this time, he had taken some time to do some renovations on his own small building, mainly in the largest room in the southeast corner of the third floor.

He spent a lot of money on the wallpaper, terrazzo window sills, and especially the teak flooring, which was made from old ship planks. Before investing in Huishi Mingpin, he was relatively well-off.

There are windows on the east and south walls, the door is located in the northwest corner of the house, and a mirrored wall is inlaid on the north side, making this place look like a practice room or dance studio.

On the west side, there was a row of cabinets occupying the entire wall. He Kao stretched out his hand and pulled outwards. Two cabinets opened to the left and right like two large doors. Behind them was a wall covered with wallpaper. He stretched out his hand and pushed it, and there was actually a heavy secret door.

Behind the secret door is a secret room. Grandpa deliberately left this space when he built the house. Now He Kao has completely turned it into a secret room.

The walls, floor, and ceiling of the secret room were all covered with a special material that could confuse spiritual consciousness. This spiritual material was originally used by Ku Cha to build the underground secret room, and it was mined from the mine guarded by Gao Chenshu.

After getting rid of Gao Chenshu, He Kao sealed the mine, but with the ability of the hidden moth, he could still enter at any time. He also secretly collected a batch of building materials to build a secret room.

In fact, many people know that there is such a space in his old house. At some time last year, many people came to check it out, including Qian Guran.

But it is not meaningless to turn it into a real secret room. It can not only hide from people's eyes and ears, but sometimes it can also play the role of creating confusion, or at least it can isolate it from prying eyes.

As a secret disciple of the elders of the clan hall, it was normal for him to have a quiet room in his home for practice, right? If he knew he was sitting in the quiet room and still forced his way in, it would not be spying in secret, it would be tantamount to attacking openly.

He Kao made a special modification to this secret room. Originally, there was only one secret door, but later he chiseled through the wall to open another one. In other words, he could enter from this room and come out from that room. It seemed to be just a small trick that didn't mean much.

However, due to its special material, one cannot detect the situation inside by relying on spiritual sense from the outside. If one wants to know whether he is inside and what he is doing inside, one has to find the secret door and open it.

He Kao also set up some small surveillance cameras, so that if anyone secretly opened the secret door of the secret room, he would be discovered. Even though he knew that no one was secretly monitoring him, He Kao still entered the secret room first, as if he was going to sit and practice. After closing the secret door, he teleported to the door of Gao Xue'e's house.

There was no surveillance here, and he was not discovered by others. He opened the door and went in normally as if nothing had happened.

He Kao never told Gao Xue'e that he was the Hidden Moth, and Gao Xue'e had never seen him use the Hidden Moth's magical powers, but she was no longer surprised by his sudden appearances... A master is just capable!

He Kao resisted the urge to go to Piaocai Cave to practice swordplay, but instead ran to Bishu Renjia Community. After all, he lacked the willpower.

Gao Xue'e bought this apartment. A year ago, she said she wanted to rent it out and move into Zhima Apartment. The reason was simple: she had been kidnapped at home and was still feeling the pain.

He Kao didn't object at the time, as he was well aware of the impact of one's state of mind on cultivation. But Gao Xue'e didn't bring it up again, which was actually a better outcome, as it meant she had resolved her own concerns.

Of course there was something going on when the two met, but what it was was not something that could be told to outsiders. In short, it was like the scorching sun shining on the snowfield, and they said some private words in the intervals when the snow melted, and no one else heard it.

But Gao Xue'e had something else to ask He Kao today, and it wasn't to inquire about Mei Guyu's background. He Kao had already reminded her, and even in private, she had never mentioned this person.

Today, he felt something special. Of course, he always felt something special, even stronger each time. But today, He Kao felt that Gao Xue'e was a little different, but it was hard to describe.

"Little Quiz, did you notice anything different about me today?"

"Your icy skin and jade-like bones are becoming more and more..." At this point, He Kao was suddenly startled, straightened up and said in surprise, "Boss E, you have entered the realm of magic cultivation and have already reached the first level!"

"President E" was originally just a nickname. Gao Xue'e didn't like others calling her that, but everyone in the company, from top to bottom, was used to calling her that, so she didn't bother to care anymore.

But the strange thing was that Gao Xue'e particularly liked He Kao calling her that. In private, even without any other intimate gestures, as long as He Kao gently called her "Ms. E" a few times, she would feel a little melted.

Gao Xue'e hummed softly, and the charm in her eyes clearly showed that she was aroused again, or was still aroused.

Today was truly a special day. He Kao inherited the Sword Controlling Technique, someone reached the fourth level of the Hidden Moth Technique, and Gao Xue also began practicing the Hidden Eel Technique. It seemed like the so-called opportunity wasn't just for one person.

Since Gao Xue'e has become a first-level stealth agent of the Yin'e Sect, she needs to pay special attention to many things.

He Kao solemnly reminded Gao Xue'e that this stage was very particular and she must not slack off in her secret practice for even a single day, otherwise all her efforts would be wasted... It would be best to practice in seclusion for at least a month and try to avoid all kinds of external stimulation.

Normally, the senses of a first-level practitioner will become increasingly sharp, causing the body to become uncomfortable, and various external stimuli will become exceptionally strong, potentially affecting the mood and emotions.

For other sorcerers, they should be careful with various precautions and slowly adapt themselves to this change, allowing their body and mind to eventually adapt. The sorcerer's sect already has various mature coping experiences, and the elders will also provide instructions.

While it's essential to control desires, you can't suppress them excessively, as this can easily lead to problems. However, indulging in certain desires, such as lust, is absolutely unacceptable.

After He Kao gave her some instructions, he proceeded to have a good time, completely subduing Gao Xue'e. She felt like every inch of her body was numb, and she didn't even want to lift her arms. Then He Kao gave her some more instructions.

He Kao suggested that after she was busy with the past few days before the New Year, she should take a few more days off during the Spring Festival. It could be sick leave, personal leave, or annual leave. In short, she should try to practice in seclusion and get through this special period of adaptation.

Gao Xue'e's image in the company used to be that of a typical workaholic. She was in good health and had hardly ever been sick. She had never taken any long leave.

But she also knew the importance of choosing and followed He Kao's advice. He Kao comforted her and told her to just treat it as a special period in the past few years, where she was confined at home.

The special thing about the Hidden E Technique is that after breaking through the first level, one must break through to the second level in the shortest possible time.

The longer the time drags on, the less likely it is to continue breaking through. At that time, the best choice is to stop practicing. Therefore, building the foundation before entering is particularly important, and Gao Xue'e has already laid a very good foundation.

He Kao did not tell Gao Xue'e that the secret method she practiced was the Yin'e Technique. He only said that it was some kind of "secret method" and that even if she accidentally let it slip, the secret would not be leaked.

He Kao hadn't told Gao Xue'e that she had to break through to the second level within a month. As long as she continued to cultivate, it would be better to let nature take its course. There was no need to add unnecessary mental pressure.

He Kao taught her the fundamental principles of the first to second stages of the Hidden Moth Technique. As for applied techniques, in addition to the sect's stealth techniques, he also taught her the Heart Disk Sect's Breath Containment Technique, which she practiced in her free time to minimize her presence and avoid exposing her cultivation.

In addition, He Kao also taught her the secrets of the body-viewing technique and a basic application technique of the body-viewing sect.

She doesn't have to practice the Body Observation Technique, but can find time to practice the applied techniques in the future. In this way, even if she encounters a situation where she has no choice, she can claim that she is practicing the Body Observation Technique.

Considering the department led by Gao Xue'e, especially the relationship between some employees in the department and Lin Qingshuang, it can be fully explained that she inherited the body-viewing technique... It is said that He Kao is very thoughtful and has a lot of tricks up his sleeve!
He Kao left in the early hours of the morning. Gao Xue'e hadn't rested all night, with so much to digest and prepare for. She took a rare half-day leave and went to work in the afternoon.
