Longevity, starting from traveling and telling stories

Chapter 35 Going Home
After leaving for a few days, Bashan Town seemed to be the same as before, but I felt like something was different.

Ye Beixuan came to the familiar street, bought some food, and then strolled slowly along the street, leisurely walking to the familiar bamboo forest and winding paths.

Open the door, push it open, and then close it.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Yunshang in the house was startled and immediately became alert.

She hid behind the door, revealing half of her head, staring at the gate. When she saw that it was Ye Beixuan who came back, her eyes lit up, and she didn't even notice the joy in her eyes.

"You're back!" Jiang Yunshang revealed her entire body, looked at the cloth bag in his hand, and said with a smile, "What delicious food did you bring back?"

"It's nothing, just some home-cooked dishes." Looking at her wearing tight country girl clothes, as if they were about to burst at any time, Ye Beixuan's eyes were a little unnatural.

Li Xianglian had brought some clothes with her, but she didn't want Ye Beixuan to know that she had brought other women home when he was not at home, so she chose the clothes of the village girl that he had brought with him.

As the most powerful woman in the Great Zhou, she may become the most powerful person in the future.

She herself didn't know what was wrong, but she felt timid when she met him, like a child who had done something wrong, and subconsciously wanted to avoid his scolding.

"Clean up and come help me cook." Ye Beixuan grinned, raised the ingredients in his hand and said to Jiang Yunshang.

"Okay," Jiang Yunshang replied softly, but the joy in her voice could not be concealed.

Looking at Ye Beixuan carrying the ingredients into the kitchen, Jiang Yunshang's eyes were as bright as stars and she followed him.

Her face showed a gentle smile.

In the kitchen, Ye Beixuan started to busy himself. He opened the cupboard and found a bowl of leftovers inside. He took a bite for some unknown reason.

Ugh! It's just pickles soaked in salt. How is it different from eating salt?

Jiang Yunshang, who had just stepped into the kitchen, looked at Ye Beixuan with embarrassment as he spit out the food she cooked.

"You've been eating this all the time?"

"Yeah." Jiang Yunshang blushed slightly and nodded embarrassedly.

Actually, that's not the case. Li Xianglian often brought her food, and she only ate the food she made once and forgot to pour it out.

But even she herself didn't know why, she was inexplicably scheming and pretending to be pitiful.

Thinking of her own expressions and actions, even she herself felt embarrassed. She was a person who wanted to become an empress, a female devil who killed people without blinking in front of outsiders, but she pretended to be so delicate in front of a man.

"What are you still standing there for? Come and help me!" Ye Beixuan said to Jiang Yunshang without stopping his hands.

"Oh oh oh!" Jiang Yunshang hurried into the kitchen after being called by him and started to help. The awkwardness just now disappeared in an instant.

At dinner, Ye Beixuan ate heartily while Jiang Yunshang chewed slowly. They finished their meal in silence like an ordinary couple.

Just like that, everything returned to peace again.

He had already decided which story to tell, and that was "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer", one of his favorite books.

The next morning.

Ye Beixuan prepared breakfast, put it in the kitchen, and hurried to Hongxiu Pavilion.

When Jiang Yunshang saw no movement, she knew that he had gone out. She sat up, put on her clothes and walked into the kitchen. Looking at the ordinary breakfast, a sweet feeling arose in her heart.

Inside the Hongxiu Pavilion.

The audience seats were already full. The news of Ye Beixuan's return had spread throughout the circle early in the morning, and they were rushing here one after another.

"Snapped!"

A crisp clapping sound echoed throughout the entire venue, instantly silencing the previously noisy space. Everyone's attention was drawn to the sound. Ye Beixuan smiled, slowly opening his folding fan, the air filled with the spirit of the martial arts world.

He swept his eyes across the audience, bowed, and said in a loud voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, today let me explain what the Jianghu is. What is the meaning of "Smiling Proudly in the World of Jianghu"?

Someone in the audience asked curiously, "Mr. Ye, what exactly is this Smiling Proud Wanderer?"

Ye Beixuan waved his folding fan slightly and spoke slowly, "What exactly is this "Swordsman"? It can be music, it can be a dream, it can even be a state of mind, it is the free and easy freedom that countless martial artists dream of but cannot achieve. Let me explain it in detail."

After saying that, Ye Beixuan coughed lightly and officially began his story.

"Speaking of which, the young leader of the Fuwei Escort Agency, Master Lin."

Suddenly, Ye Beixuan raised his voice, stirring up the emotions of everyone present:

Lin Zhennan suddenly revealed a look of shock and asked, "How can you, a native of Qingcheng Mountain, know the swordsmanship of my Lin family?"

Ye Beixuan spoke vividly, describing the process of the young Lin Pingzhi's tragic death and the extermination of his family.

In the corner of the stage, Li Xianglian held her cheeks with both hands, staring at him with eyes as bright as stars, the love in her eyes no longer concealed.

Hou Fangting's eyes never left Li Xianglian, and the jealousy in his heart completely consumed him.

Why, why? I was the one who knew you first, why do you like him?

"As the saying goes, an innocent man is guilty unless he possesses a treasure. The Lin family was robbed precisely because they had no ability to protect their wealth." Seeing that everyone felt sorry for Lin Pingzhi, he felt that he would definitely escape the disaster, and then successfully take revenge and live freely in the world.

Ye Beixuan shook his head. He had also thought that Lin Pingzhi was the male protagonist. It was a pity that the male protagonist had not appeared yet!

Shaking his head, he slammed the gavel and said loudly: "To know what happens next, please wait for the next chapter."

After saying that, he walked away quickly. As usual, there was a lot of shouting and cursing behind him, but he was used to it anyway.

[Storytelling Level: LV3 (1000/30000)]

[Today, I will talk about the fourth chapter. Prolonging life: one day increases your cultivation by thirty days.]

[Trigger special reward: Yi Jin Jing.]

Wow, great stuff! I finally got a technique, and it's the internal energy I lack the most. Although I have bonus cultivation and expelling the old and inhaling the new, I lack the internal energy to circulate, and my realm can never keep up.

Ye Beixuan discovered that when writing a long story, there seemed to be a special reward at the beginning and a completion reward at the end.

Xiao Li's Flying Dagger has been completed, and the rewards are extremely generous. I wonder what will happen to The Smiling, Proud Wanderer next.

Just as Ye Beixuan was about to leave, a voice as soft as drizzle interrupted his steps.

"Mr. Ye."

Li Xianglian walked quickly, and because of her speed, the clothes in front of her were pressed tighter to her body, showing off her graceful figure.

"Master Li, I am honored to meet you." Ye Beixuan bowed and saluted.

She's not going to seduce me again, is she?
"Mr. Ye, could we go to a private room for a chat?" Li Xianglian invited politely.

Sure enough, she really wanted to seduce me again. Ye Beixuan had no choice but to respond: "Please."

Li Xianglian was overjoyed and immediately extended her hand, saying, "Mr. Ye invites you."

Ye Beixuan suppressed his eagerness to study the Yi Jin Jing and had to follow Li Xianglian to the private room.

Not far away, Hou Fangting was clutching his folding fan so tightly that his joints were turning white from exerting so much force. He muttered to himself, "You forced me to do this."
