The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.
Chapter 268 Physical Problems
"No rush, eat something first! The food here is pretty good, you can try it." Luo Jingqian pulled him back, "There's a dish of mushroom stewed chicken that's particularly special."
Although Han Cuiyin lived in Yanjiacun, she had never been to the town in all these years and was indeed unfamiliar with the food there. She asked, "How do you know?"
"Do you still remember the first time we met?" Luo Jingqian smiled. "You were going to ignore me and walk away back then. If I hadn't used some tricks, you probably wouldn't be alive now."
That was the most dangerous time for him.
His illness flared up, and he was being hunted down. If it weren't for Han Cuiyin's help, he would have indeed perished in the Pinglian Mountains.
When asked about their first meeting, Han Cuiyin didn't seem to care.
If she hadn't been in a weakened state at the time, she would have had countless ways to avoid being hindered.
All I can say is that Luo Jingqian was lucky.
After saying that, Luo Jingqian suddenly realized what he had said and awkwardly changed the subject, "I stayed here before I went to the Pinglian Mountains, but I wasn't wearing a mask at the time, and I was almost snatched away by the girls in town to be their husband. The mushroom stewed chicken at this inn is especially delicious and is very good for the soul."
At that time, he was still a martial artist, not a cultivator. He only felt that his head felt relaxed after eating, and he did not know that his soul had benefited.
It wasn't until he returned to Fuguang Mountain after obtaining the Longevity Scroll that he learned the truth from his master.
Han Cuiyin's eyes lit up when she heard that it would benefit her soul.
Her cultivation methods were varied, especially entering dreams, which consumed the most spiritual energy. Her master once said that if she wanted to achieve something great in her cultivation, her soul must be strong.
But she can't eat it now!
This body is too weak; if the soul is too strong, this body will not be able to withstand it.
Although the physical constitutions of the two worlds are quite similar, both being lightning spiritual roots, if the secrets of their bodies were discovered, they might be used as furnaces for others.
She possessed a Yin Water Spirit Body, and in the Realm of Immortality, she was even more favored by those old monsters than those with top-grade Water Spirit Roots.
Even a powerful figure like her master worried that one day she would be captured.
Otherwise, her master wouldn't have found her the two most advanced Buddhist cultivation techniques, specifically to suppress the Yin Water Spirit Body.
Seeing that she wasn't very interested, Luo Jingqian felt a pang of anxiety. "You don't like it? There are other meats that are also good."
Han Cuiyin's stomach was rumbling with hunger, so she quickly said, "No! I can't eat too much now, but I can make more and put it in my magic bag so I can eat it later."
Physical problems can only be addressed by finding other solutions; once one's cultivation reaches the Golden Core stage, this concern disappears.
"Why have you been so preoccupied lately? Are you still worried about your uncle's safety? Didn't your great-uncle send you a message that they are both fine?"
Luo Jingqian had noticed something was wrong with her long ago.
Especially when he emerged from seclusion, it seemed as if he was worried about something.
"We'll talk about it later. Let's deal with the immediate issues first." Han Cuiyin shook her head and didn't say anything more.
Luo Jingqian's eyes darkened, and he lowered his head. Just as he was about to say something, the sound of fighting came from next door.
"Xu Zhen, don't push your luck!"
Swords clashed, clanging and banging.
"The Third Prince and his entourage living next door... it seems he wasn't lying when he said he was coming to the Pinglian Mountains to find medicine. Could it be that he's fallen out with the Han family?"
According to Qingyun, this third prince is a sycophant. I wonder if Han Yueshi will be angry about leaving the Han family this time.
In her past life, Han Yueshi would only wipe her face a few times with a handkerchief, and the Third Prince would ask if she was so fragile.
Han Cuiyin's eyes flickered, and her gaze unconsciously drifted in that direction.
Luo Jingqian suppressed a laugh, "If you want to watch the show, go over there to the base of the wall, but don't get hurt."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Cuiyin darted out and eavesdropped and peeked through the cracks in the bricks.
"Xu Zhen, is the Third Prince aware of your actions? In the past, it was always the Third Prince who tried to curry favor with our Highness. Are you now trying to sever ties with the two princes on their behalf?"
The Second Prince's guards were not as skilled in martial arts as Xu Zhen, so they could only shout loudly to bolster their morale.
If they can leave here safely, they will get their revenge for today's humiliation sooner or later.
Their prince is not the idle and lazy third prince.
Xu Zhen remained silent, his sword flashing even faster as he coldly observed, seemingly intent on keeping the man there.
Han Cuiyin saw through the trick and naturally lent a hand, as Xu Zhen swung his sword at the air.
Taking advantage of Xu Zhen's missed swing, the second prince's four guards scattered and fled.
Xu Zhen was the only one left in the courtyard.
The guards protecting the Third Prince were all at the teahouse; no one was helping him.
After Xu Zhen left, the neighboring courtyard became quiet.
"Naughty!" Luo Jingqian smiled helplessly. "After returning to the capital, the brothers started fighting amongst themselves, which gave the Emperor a headache!"
"Wouldn't that be perfect! It would save him from always thinking about arranging marriages for others."
Han Cuiyin gave a faint sarcastic remark, wishing that Emperor Chu Yuan would be busy, whether it was busy with court affairs or busy fooling around in the harem.
Why did Emperor Chu Yuan live such a long life in this lifetime?
Once she arrived in Konoha, she found herself surrounded by restrictions and dared not act rashly.
If this physical body is destroyed again, she may never have another chance to return to the Realm of Immortality.
Luo Jingqian comforted him, "Don't worry, the Emperor won't easily grant you a marriage in the future. Even if Grand Secretary Han begs for it, it won't work."
They were already aware of what Consort Rui had mentioned, and Princess Jinghe naturally wouldn't tolerate anyone messing around.
It was already evening.
The food here is indeed as Luo Jingqian said, it is of great benefit to the soul.
Han Cuiyin ate a few bites of each dish and then stopped. She took out some fried silver fish and watched Luo Jingqian eat them with great relish.
"I have already instructed the shopkeeper to make you over a hundred servings. You can eat them whenever you are able."
"Oh, that's fine too."
Finally, her eyes crinkled into a smile, and Luo Jingqian breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't easy to make the girl happy.
"By the way, did you ask the shopkeeper which region these mushrooms came from?" Han Cuiyin knew the key after taking a bite.
She now wants to know where this amazing fungus grows.
She had been traveling in and out of the Pinglian Mountains for ten years and had never seen such a mushroom.
"It's said to be near the central area of the Pinglian Mountains. We're on our way into the mountains this time, so we can pick some and store them for later consumption."
Luo Jingqian had already found out the details and even inquired about the storage method.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the two left the courtyard hand in hand, ready to go and see what was going on.
It was still pitch black next door, and the Third Prince was still outside and had not returned.
Xu Zhen went out to chase after the person and never came back.
After this incident, the Second Prince and the Third Prince will certainly not be able to get along as before, and one of the escaped guards will always survive and return to the Second Prince's side.
What happens next is probably something to watch.
"The stage has already been set up in the open space on the east side of the town, and it will start in half an hour." Luo Jingqian had already found out. "Hongshan is probably there too. She knows the town quite well."
Han Cuiyin was a little curious, "What's the reward for winning the competition to sculpt a golden statue of the mountain god? Could it be that someone is using this opportunity to make money?"
She wanted to draw out the person behind it all, but she didn't want to be taken advantage of.
