Chapter 249: Collection of Bond Tokens
When Su Yunjin finished cleaning the second floor and came down, she saw Lin Ning holding a soup spoon and chasing Yan Yu around the house.

"Don't run!"

"Don't chase me!"

"Speak clearly before you leave!"

"You deserve it too!"

"What's wrong with you?" Su Yunjin saw the two people shouting happily, and sent a message to them without saying a word.

Although her tone was calm, she seemed to be born with the power of gravity, so that the two people who were still chasing her immediately quieted down.

"Nothing." Lin Ning suppressed the strange expression on her face and said, "The captain has been irritating me. I want to teach him a lesson."

"If you have anything to say, sit down and talk it over." Su Yunjin said with a smile, "Fighting won't solve the problem."

"...But there's no problem to solve." Lin Ning muttered for a while, then turned and went back to the kitchen.

Su Yunjin watched her leave the living room, then turned to look at Yan Yu again and said with a smile:

"Captain, can you please stop bullying Ningning?"

"Don't listen to her nonsense. I didn't bully her." Yan Yu immediately defended himself.

This Lin Daiyu suddenly became arrogant in the kitchen, saying things like "I'm not jealous of you." Why can't I point it out? Does that mean I'm bullying her?

"You didn't bully her?" Su Yunjin raised an eyebrow slightly and continued to smile, "Then the captain is accusing Ningning of lying?"

Although her tone was very gentle, a kind of indescribable heavy oppression still came through her aura.

Yan Yu stubbornly resisted the pressure and asked calmly:

"Have you finished cleaning the second floor?"

"Captain, are you trying to divert my question with other topics?"

"Answer my question first."

"But I asked first."

"True, but I'm the captain."

"I've finished cleaning." Su Yunjin said angrily, "I even changed the pillowcases and quilt cover for your room."

"Thank you, Yunjin." Yan Yu cleverly changed the subject. "In that case, how about I teach you how to cultivate the Dao Transformation Body?"

Su Yunjin was silent for a moment and said:

"Go teach me in my room."

The second floor of the villa is the living area. The innermost room has the doorplate "Yan". To the right are "Chen" and "Su", and to the left are "Zhao" and "Lin". The study where Xie Ruoxi lives is next to the stairs, and there is also a sign "Xie" hanging on it.

There are still five empty rooms. There are no signs on the doors, and the interior decoration is the same layout as when the villa was purchased. They can be used as guest rooms for the time being.

When I walked into Su Yunjin's room, the first thing I smelled was a faint, almost imperceptible floral scent, which slowly drifted from the direction of the balcony, lingering in my nose for a long time.

She still loves flowers so much.

Su Yunjin asked Yan Yu to sit down at the desk and poured him a cup of steaming hot black tea. The latter took it and suddenly a thought popped up in his mind:
Could it be that sleeping pills were put in it...

No, no, no, Yunjin isn't that kind of person! Yunjin should still love me normally, and definitely won't turn into a yandere and evil person to that extent...

Yan Yu was just daydreaming when he saw Su Yunjin standing in front of a huge bookcase that stood against the wall. He took a book from it and handed it to Yan Yu, saying:
"for you."

Yan Yu looked at the cover title, "A Letter from a Strange Woman," scratched his head and asked:

"Lend it to me?"

"You can give it to the captain," Su Yunjin replied, "I finished reading it when I was in junior high school."

Yan Yu calmly picked up his phone and searched for the title of the book.

Oh, it's about a secret love that can't be achieved...

"Let's talk about the body of Taoism." Yan Yu put the book on his knees and said calmly.

The Dao-transformed body is unique to the path to enlightenment for practitioners. For example, Su Yunjin's Water-Walking Dao method involves first cultivating the essence of Gui Water, then the essence of Ren Water, before combining the two to refine Tianyi True Water, ultimately achieving the acquired Water-Walking Dao body, where the source of zhenyuan is truly endless—a total of three stages.

To refine the essence of Guishui, one must first obtain rootless water, namely rainwater, dew, and snowwater. The rainwater should be a slanting drizzle, the dew should be morning dew, and the snowwater should be fresh snow. Take a drop of each daily, mix them evenly, and place them on the palm of your hand to refine with your true essence until the essence of Guishui is achieved.

"Morning dew is easy to say." After listening to Yan Yu's description, Su Yunjin pondered, "This slanting rain, the first snow, must wait for a specific weather and time to appear, right?"

"No need." Yan Yu waved his hand. "Just check the weather forecast in advance and fly over to collect water. If there's sunshine in the east, it's raining in the west. If there's no snow in the south, there's snow in the north. If you travel all over the country, it will be done in a week at most. The difficulty lies mainly in refining."

"Hmm." Su Yunjin was silent for a moment, then forced a smile. "So, will the captain accompany me to collect water? I'm afraid I might make a mistake and delay my cultivation."

Although her tone was weak and pitiful, Yan Yu would never give in. He immediately said:
"Actually, if we simply want to collect water, we can let the people from the Environmental Research Institute do it. However, the water collection process itself is a ritual. If we skip this step, I'm afraid it will only add a lot of suffering to the training of the mind later..."

"Does this ceremony require me to go alone?" Su Yunjin wasn't at all confused by his explanation, but instead grasped the key point and asked. "...That's not the case."

"Captain, can you accompany me?" Su Yunjin asked again.

"Uh, okay." Yan Yu had no way to retreat, and thought it would be okay to accompany her to get some water.

Quack, I am the strongest in the world!

Of course, it is impossible to get water whenever you want. The morning dew is easy to get, but rain and snow involve astronomical phenomena, so you need to go to Pingjing to find the Meteorological Department of the Imperial Observatory to confirm the weather conditions in various parts of the country.

"When the time is right, I'll go with you." Yan Yu stood up.

"Okay." Su Yunjin picked up "Letter from a Stranger" and handed it over. "Don't forget the book for you."

Yan Yu took the book and decided to put it in the cabinet when he got home and not to flip through it unless it was a critical moment - sorry, I don’t like the story of Bad Ending.

Back in the room, Yan Yu looked at the empty compartments in the cabinet and wondered if it would be better to fill them with something.

There are ten grids in total, and it would be a bit strange to put books in all of them. I am not a great writer.

Forget it, let’s talk about it later.

He looked at the book in his hand. The three words "Su Yunjin" were signed in the lower right corner of the cover. The handwriting from junior high school seemed quite childish. Every stroke was written carefully, and the handwriting was neat and beautiful.

Ok?
Yan Yu noticed that there seemed to be a bookmark in the book.

Pulling the bookmark out from the page, I saw a line of words written on it in the same childish handwriting:

"What she actually loves is not the man, but the reflection he leaves in her heart. So she dares not reveal the truth to him, because when the man truly enters her heart, the first thing to be shattered is the perfect yet illusory shadow she loves so deeply."

Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, and identified the handwriting on the bookmark again, confirming that it should also be from her junior high school period, and not written recently to hint at something - Secretary Su probably forgot that there was a bookmark inside, otherwise she would definitely have taken it out in advance.

Haha, literary girl.

He randomly picked one of the ten compartments in the cabinet and put the book given by Su Yunjin in it with the cover facing outwards.

Then tuck the bookmark into the page.

But after thinking about it, he deliberately pulled out the bookmark a little bit, leaving it outside - it was the kind of length that you had to look carefully to see it.

hehehe~
Yan Yu was proud of his ingenious plan when he suddenly heard Chen Lingyun's voice from outside:
"Yanyu, are you in the room?"

"What's wrong?" He went over and opened the door.

Chen Lingyun stood outside, holding the Nine Heavens Demon Prison Banner he had given her, and said with a smile:
"Go to the underground training ground and teach me how to use this thing?"

"Okay." Yan Yu held out a hand, palm facing up. "What about tuition?"

Chen Lingyun was stunned for a moment and took out her phone:
"Is 200,000 enough to transfer to you?"

"That's enough. Money doesn't mean anything to me." Yan Yu touched his chin and said, "What I want is the most precious thing in you."

"Hmm~" Chen Lingyun tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Do you want my first time?"

"Little girl, please respect yourself." Yan Yu immediately became serious. "Don't spend all your time trying to take advantage of the strong people around you. Can you work hard to become stronger?"

"Then what do you want?"

"I said, your most precious thing."

Chen Lingyun thought for a moment, then reached around her neck and untied a jade pendant strung with red string. It was engraved with the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"Here, take it."

"What is this?" Yan Yu asked with a frown.

"When I was a child, my mother went to the temple to get me this amulet," Chen Lingyun explained. "It's said to be blessed by a high-ranking Buddhist monk himself, and wearing it close to the body can ward off misfortune and disaster. I've been wearing it ever since, never taking it off even to shower. It's been almost 20 years now."

"Uh..." Yan Yu was a little stuck. He didn't take it immediately, but hinted to her to think about it again. "This is indeed very precious. Why are you willing to give it to me?"

"Hmm~" Chen Lingyun didn't intend to retract her idea, but smiled sweetly and said, "When it comes to relieving disasters and eliminating misfortunes, I think Yan Xianzun is more reliable."

Yan Yu was silent for a moment, took the jade pendant from her hand, turned back into the room, found a shelf to put it on, then moved the shelf together and put it in another cabinet compartment.

"Did Yunjin give that to you?" Chen Lingyun stood beside him, looking at the paper books in the cabinet.

"Yes." Yan Yu said.

"Yun Jin is so cute~" Chen Lingyun smiled, her eyes curved. "So, what are you collecting? Are you collecting everyone's bond tokens?"

"Just looking for something to fill it up and decorate it."

"Oh." Chen Lingyun blinked, not knowing what she was thinking, her smile became more joyful and sweet.
