Beauty helps me achieve immortality

Chapter 148 Asking the World if It’s Okay

Chapter 150 Asking the World if It’s Okay

The next day at dawn, the morning light was dim.

Zhao Qing was holding Shuyue in his arms at this moment, immersed in sleep.

A faint chill of consciousness surged from the courtyard towards the east wing...

Sensing the unusual movement in the Mingtang, Zhao Qing suddenly woke up and opened his eyes suddenly.

The night pearl glows dimly in the dark cage.

Qing Huan put down the book on plants and trees in her hand, turned her head slightly, and said softly: "Master, it's Xiao Yi in the yard."

Zhao Qing looked at the sky outside and saw that it was just getting light.

Are you leaving so early?

He stood up and dressed with a puzzled look on his face, then gently placed his wife on the pillow.

Then he reached out and pressed the book Qing Huan was studying, and threw it on the bed: "Activate the formation, and wait for me at home."

Wang Shuyue lay on the bed, her beautiful eyes trembling slightly, and then she turned over naturally and held Qinghuan in her arms...

Zhao Qing opened the door and came into the yard.

I saw a ray of rosy light in the dark night sky.

Zhou Xiaoyi was wearing a water gown she had never seen before. Her hair was tied up high in a bun, and a safety locket hung around her waist. Her slender figure was delicately outlined by a wisp of sky-blue pattern...

Zhao Qing was stunned.

By the way, aren’t we going to Changshengfang to find Xueyi Tower today?

How to dress...

A smile appeared on my aunt's cold face, and she raised her arm and extended her slender hand.

She said softly, "If we get up early, we can still have a meal in Lin'an. I saw a place selling mixed noodles that was pretty good the other day."

Zhao Qing's heart moved slightly, and he held the woman's slender hand and walked out of the house.

I don’t think I’ve ever gone out with my aunt…

Facing the dawn, the two men headed north along the clear canal.

The waning moon was obscured by clouds, and the morning breeze was filled with the fragrance of grass and trees.

Zhao Qing knew that Xiaoyi was planning to take him to a private world...

Wandering around the secular town like a couple, they stopped by Changshengfang.

Zhou Xiaoyi took a slow step and spoke softly, "Husband."

"What did my husband like about Xiaoyi in the first place?"

Zhao Qing listened to the gentle words in his ears, and his heart trembled slightly.

Why on the way to the picnic, there are still life-threatening questions...

He looked into the woman's beautiful eyes while pondering: "I'm attracted by your eyebrows and eyes."

Aunt: ...

Never mind, there's no need to disgust yourself.

She chuckled and said, "Are you attracted by Xiaoyi's qualifications? Or do you want Xiaoyi to help you with some advice?"

The woman's eyes were burning, waiting for an answer.

Zhao Qing frowned slightly. In fact, this was not the main reason why he flirted with his aunt.

Okay... I'm a face lover.

When I went to matchmaker Xu's place, I didn't have to choose a mortal to meet.

But Shuyue is tender and soft, and she seems beautiful and kind-hearted. She is no worse than those female cultivators who are full of utilitarianism.

"Actually, I just covet your beauty." Zhao Qing sighed in a low voice.

Zhou Xiaoyi's expression paused for a moment, and she thought to herself for a moment.

Then she smiled and said, "Are you praising me, my husband?"

She squeezed the man's hand tightly and spoke softly.

"Actually... the year I left the Duke's Mansion, I went to Changshengfang."

"Before the Changsheng Sword Sect could recruit disciples, my family sent me a message... asking me to stay in the Danxia Sect for a few years."

The aunt's beautiful eyes fluttered gently, and she whispered close to Zhao Qing's ear: "I've been eyeing Lin'an County for a long time, and finally got you here!"

Zhao Qing: ???

Wasn't it me who hooked you up?

He asked doubtfully, "When did you see it?"

Zhou Xiaoyi pondered for a moment before softly saying, "I had some impression of you when you first appeared in the Blood Robe Building."

"Later, when I thought about it carefully, I realized that I had seen you once before."

"There are many servants in the Danxia Sect square, but there is only one mortal woman..."

"Shuyue was standing at the front of the stairs, with your arm tightly held... Why? Are you worried she'd get lost?"

My aunt shook her head and chuckled, and didn't mention it anymore.

Then he said, "After the year of Mao, I have set my sights on this county town south of Changshengfang."

"I already knew a lot about your situation by then, and I figured you wouldn't be able to stay in Danxia for too long..."

She sighed softly, "During that time, my mother left the Duke's Mansion, my grandfather was nearing the end of his life, the Zhou family was in danger, and my brother kept sending messages to urge us..."

"I really want to just grab the communication jade at home!"

Zhao Qing raised his eyebrows slightly: "Didn't you pinch it?"

"I remember that on the night of the New Year's Eve, in Danxia South City, you crushed a communication jade."

He knew the situation in his aunt's family.

His parents were part of a family alliance marriage, and his mother was from Li Country... The so-called brother was his father's adopted son.

The Zhou family is also considered a half-cultivation clan, and the rules and regulations are so complicated that she does not have much sense of belonging to the Zhou family.

Zhou Xiaoyi paused, her beautiful eyes narrowed fiercely.

"I was wondering how dare you just jump in... Turns out you were already there that night!"

Zhao Qing immediately fell into a long silence.

His eyes swept over the hunched figure in the distance. Wang Deren, the medicine vendor in town, had left his home, apparently going to the county to buy medicinal herbs.

As people age, they are more prone to illness... According to people in the town, Lao Wang was originally a barefoot itinerant doctor.

He met his future wife in Lanxian Town and settled there.

My aunt followed his gaze and murmured, "Old Wang's wife is long gone. I heard from Bu Niang that...the grave was chosen by Blind Qiu, on the road north of the town heading towards Lin'an County."

The warm sun is rising, blurred by the morning glow.

Wang Deren, with an old pipe on his waist and a cloth bag in his hand, disappeared into the mountains and forests.

"Tell me, why did Mr. Wang stay in Lanxian Town at that time instead of taking his wife away?"

Zhao Qing heard the whisper in his ear and glanced sideways slightly.

My aunt's expression was gentle, as if she was just talking about some ordinary family gossip.

He sighed casually, "Old Wang has no home... He's just a barefoot itinerant doctor! He has no shop and no place to call home."

"It's not bad to stay in Lanxian Town and marry a wife, but I can't travel around anymore."

Zhou Xiaoyi gently raised her hand and combed the hair beside her ears.

"His wife died in her forties from malaria, and she left no children."

"You said he's just a herbalist, and there aren't many people in town. Does he really need to go to the city every month to buy herbs?"

Zhao Qing smiled and shook his head.

He knew what his aunt meant was that Wang Deren would visit his deceased wife every month.

It’s a pity... Old Wang, a traveling doctor, couldn’t cure his own wife.

"Let's go and take a look?"

My aunt smiled with her beautiful eyes and shook her head gently.

"All people seek is a piece of heaven and earth. This five-mile narrow path leading to Lin'an County represents Mr. Wang's life."

"You never know when he'll fall on the road..."

Zhao Qing nodded silently.

If there were cultivators from Huanyu Pavilion in Lanxian Town... Old Wang’s wife wouldn’t have died so early.

After all, Lanxian Town did not attract an immortal master.

Birth, old age, sickness, death, joy and sorrow, separation and reunion are nothing new, and even monks cannot completely escape them.

Qinghuan, Shuyue, aunt...

Miao Jian, Wang Teng, Cheng Buyi...

Things I have seen and things I have not seen.

Take a closer look...it's just a sigh.

The delicate body pressed against my side, a sweet and soft touch imprinted on ours.

The woman panted softly, "I don't ask for much. Right now... it's good enough."

She took out a copper key from her storage ring.

He whispered, "But... when I go to Changshengfang, you wait for me in Shangchu Town."

"I'll give you a key to our house."

Ok?

The key to our house?

Zhao Qing looked at the slightly red face in front of him, a little dazed.

"Which house's key?"

……

"It's our home."

"Our two homes are in Shangchu Town, eight miles south of Changshengfang."

"The house is not big. I bought it when I left the Duke's Mansion and first entered Changshengfang."

"I'll give you the key now. When you go to Changshengfang in the future, stay with me for a while..."
