Xiuxian Work Log

"Actually, even though the Death Mirror literally means a secret place that cannot be escaped, it's not completely impossible to escape! You're not doing anything like this, and your work attitude is very negative."

"The situation was so urgent at the time that I could only find this secret place nearby. You can't blame me, right?"

"Who knew your path to becoming an immortal would be so long? Of course, this isn't your problem."

The Dust-Breaking System looked at Lin Qingyue who was building a house, muttering to himself.

Lin Qingyue took the leaves picked up by Wen Lingyun and put them on the wooden frame. Perhaps because of his lack of experience, the house that had just been built collapsed with a "bang".

Lin Qingyue: ...

Wen Lingyun stood there without saying a word. The child had been very quiet since entering the death mirror.

Lin Qingyue was busy chasing the monkeys to get the Green Mirror back, but she didn't expect that the monkeys were more agile and clever than the monkeys she saw in modern zoos.

She couldn't catch that monkey at all, not to mention that they were familiar with the terrain and would cooperate with each other. When she was about to catch the monkey, it would throw the Green Mirror to another monkey. The battle continued until it was almost dark.

Lin Qingyue didn't dare to pursue further. Not to mention whether there would be tigers or wild beasts once it got dark, even hypothermia could cause people to suffer.

Plus, she wasn't alone; there was also Wen Lingyun, a minor. She might still be able to resist, but how could Wen Lingyun resist? With her life?

Lin Qingyue: "What do you mean by that? Could it be that I can't cultivate immortality or that someone is messing with me?"

After the first experience, Lin Qingyue quickly built the house again, sat down, dug a hole and started to make a fire.

Seeing this, Wen Lingyun stood up and walked away. Lin Qingyue was so scared that he grabbed him.

It was just getting dark and the surroundings were still clear, but Lin Qingyue could still feel the surrounding atmosphere and the sight in the distance.

"What are you going to do? Just stay with me. It's dangerous here. Don't go anywhere!"

Wen Lingyun: "...Collect firewood, there are no dead branches here."

Lin Qingyue rubbed his face and softened his voice.

"Don't go out at this time. There's nothing wrong with using wet ones, it just burns slower."

Lin Qingyue took out a tinder from his bosom and lit the wood chips. He first added small branches into it, and continued to add firewood when the fire got bigger.

There was no sound from the Dust-Breaking System for a while, and Lin Qingyue thought it was time for it to go offline, so he didn't pay much attention.

Unexpectedly, the Dust-Breaking System suddenly spoke.

"In fact, the biggest reason why you can't cultivate immortality is because of yourself."

Lin Qingyue snorted, "I get it. You're trying to say I'm too talented to open up, right?"

Dust-Breaking System quickly retorted, "That's not what I meant. Is it possible that you were originally capable of cultivating immortality, but for some special reason you can't anymore? And this reason has a lot to do with you."

"Enough!" Lin Qingyue's face was truly cold now. "Do you have to keep telling someone who can't cultivate that it's her fault? Even if it means being sarcastic, do you have to see them cry in pain? Who do you think you are, Pochen? Why are you so self-righteous? Do you think you're incompetent?"

"It's not... me!" The Dust-Breaking System didn't know how to explain and finally gave up.

Dust-Breaking System: "Okay, if that's what you think, then that's it. If that makes you feel better."

Lin Qingyue smiled: "If you don't make things difficult for me, it will make me feel better."

The Dust-Breaking System went offline. Lin Qingyue took out a bag of pastries from her arms. Fortunately, she always carried some food with her, as she was worried about not having anything to eat every day.

Even if there are nutrients in the system space, it is better not to torture yourself with this kind of thing unless it is absolutely necessary.

The pastry was wrapped in three layers of wax paper, so it did not swell even after being briefly exposed to water.

When I opened the layers of wax paper, the pastry inside had crumbled into crumbs.

After the two of them finished eating, Lin Qingyue silently looked at Wen Lingyun's wet clothes and the cold clothes stuck to her body, and then she realized that she had forgotten to ask Wen Lingyun to take off her clothes and dry them.

"Take off your clothes. You'll catch a cold if you don't dry them."

Lin Qingyue said to Wen Lingyun, but who knew that Wen Lingyun was so shy and refused to let her take off his clothes.

"Don't be shy! I won't have any thoughts about you! I'm not a pedophile!"

Wen Lingyun didn't understand what Lin Qingyue meant by pedophilia, but he always remembered that his grandmother told him not to let anyone other than his wife see his body, otherwise it would be unfaithful and unrighteous.

Wen Lingyun: "Girls and boys do not sit at the same table after the age of seven."

Lin Qingyue looked at him speechlessly. Was this what she wanted? The conditions here were such that it was a blessing for him to not have a fever overnight.

"Don't think about the rules now. Rules are dead, but people are alive—" Lin Qingyue suddenly had an idea. "How about this! I'll dry my coat first, then you take off your clothes and put on my coat, and I'll dry your clothes. Is that okay?"

Seeing Wen Lingyun nod, Lin Qingyue felt relieved.

In the darkness, beside the fire, a girl in wet clothes stirred the fire expressionlessly. The outer clothes were almost dry, but the inside was still wet.

Lin Qingyue: ...

Shouldn't she be the one who is afraid of being seen?

Well, after all, she was an adult. Wen Lingyun was still the dead mirror she brought in.

Although his presence in the well was suspicious, he was unwilling to explain the reason. The green mirror had been snatched away by that dead monkey again, and now she didn't even know where it was.

If I had known this would happen, I would have rather been caught by the servants.

For Hua Xiangrong's sake, he shouldn't kill her, right?

Lin Qingyue was lost in thought, his brows furrowed more and more, and he looked like he was filled with bitterness and hatred.

The dried clothes were handed to Wen Lingyun, who changed into them and lay down on the leaves. Perhaps because too many things had happened today, Wen Lingyun fell asleep quickly.

Seeing that he fell asleep, Lin Qingyue put his coat on Wen Lingyun, took off his inner clothes, hung them on the rack to dry, and then put them on.

He went to the side of the house to find some firewood and reignited the fire that had died down. Then he sat in front of the fire, hugged his legs and fell asleep half awake and half sleepy.

Wait until the fire goes down and then add more fire.

In the early morning, the birds were singing loudly and clear. The fire had gone out. Lin Qingyue was sleeping soundly when he was unexpectedly awakened by the increasingly loud crying.

He opened his eyes with a sense of despair, looked at the unchanging forest on the side, suddenly realized something, and ran quickly to the house he had hastily built yesterday.

She pulled open the coat covering Wen Lingyun's face and saw her red and hot face, a face full of tears. She half-opened her eyes and saw Lin Qingyue, crying and looking towards Lin.
