As long as it didn't involve the core techniques of the Shenxiao Sect, then what would it matter if Ning Xianzhi, as Chu Wuji's mother, privately guided him? There were many ways to cultivate immortality, and a strong guide was far more important than a few techniques.

*

At the foot of the mountain,

Aunt Qingshe and Chu Wuzhi looked at each other in silence, and Qingshe was trying to figure out whether he was joking or trying to trick her.

Chu Wuji was very patient. He knew that it would take some time for his aunt to accept this reality.

He himself also needed time to calm down, because he was dropped down so hastily that he didn't even have time to prepare a greeting. He was afraid that Aunt Green Snake would pretend to be mute and fly away, so he had to spit out the most crucial information as soon as possible.

No matter what, seeing her dazed look, Chu Wuzhi knew that his decision was correct. The woman he met for the first time was the aunt with whom he had had an affair!

"Aunt, you have been thinking about it for a long time. It's time for you to figure it out, right? Don't pretend to be dumb again. You have already spoken just now." Chu Wuzhi reminded her.

Aunt Green Snake felt a little embarrassed, and she was embarrassed in front of the younger generation, which was a loss of dignity as an elder.

She patted Chu Wuji's head and glared at him angrily, then decided to sort things out from the beginning. She asked:

"This is the first time you've seen me in person. How did you recognize me as your aunt? You haven't even seen my magical aura!"

...No, I just mentioned the sarcophagus. Why did you bring up this topic, aunt?

Chu Wuji recalled his last brief contact with this aunt and felt that her temperament was very different from that of his mother Bai Sujin. She was too impulsive.

To put it nicely, it is the style of a military general!

Chu Wuji copied the Jiuwu Taoist's analysis and explained, "Aunt, you have the strength to severely injure the river dragon with one blow, but you can't cure your own muteness? Do you think I'm stupid?"

"......" The green snake choked. Could it be that I was poisoned and made mute by the deadly poison when I was fighting with a strong man?

Chu Wuji shook his sleeves again, pointing to the green snake embroidery on them, and said, "Besides, when I saw you, I thought of the green snake on my sleeve. The white snake is my mother, but where did the green snake come from?"

The handsome and heroic girl in the green dress raised her eyebrows, flicked Chu Wuji's forehead lightly, and said unhappily:

"You're quite clever, you little brat! I was just trying to secretly check on you, but you've already been caught... And what about that sarcophagus? Are you kidding me?"

The woman's expression was serious, but there was hope in her eyes. She stared at Chu Wuzhi nervously, hoping that this was just a lie to bluff her.

Chu Wuji didn't want this to be a joke, so he told the story of the Scorpion Spirit:

"It's true. Not long after you left, the sarcophagus was stolen by another demon, a scorpion demon... If I hadn't thought of returning to pay my respects on the seventh day after death, I probably wouldn't have known about this until now!"

Aunt Green Snake's heart stopped suddenly. She held her forehead in confusion, her smile bitter.

She had originally thought that the biggest concern on this trip was the safety of Chu Wuji, so how could this matter have come up?!

Before I left the waterfall pool, I had already taken precautions to hide myself. I shouldn't have been discovered by the goblins. How come I was robbed the moment I left...

How could she cause such a big disaster!

Chu Wuji comforted her, "Aunt, don't blame yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you or me."

The handsome beauty was so angry that she frowned and bit her lips, her rosy thin lips turned white. She said angrily: "Stinky boy, what are you talking about? It has nothing to do with you and me, so who does it have to do with?"

"Of course it's related to the Scorpion Demon. Long before I was looking for medicine for my mother, the Scorpion Demon had already set his sights on that body of merit. She's keeping a close eye on it, and we can't defend ourselves against it."

Aunt Green Snake was just worrying about how to explain this to her sister. After hearing what the young man said, she suddenly understood and her brows relaxed:

“…That makes sense!”

Chu Wuji continued:

"What's more, the merits and luck of that body have been passed on to me. Even if it's stolen, it won't have any impact on Mother herself. It's Mother who gave up this body that brought about the hidden danger!"

So, the disaster was caused by my sister?

Aunt Qingshe's complexion returned to normal, the paleness gradually disappearing. She nodded in agreement, and looked at Chu Wuji with increasing favor. She touched his head with satisfaction and fondness:

"You are very intelligent. Your love for you is not in vain~!"

Aunt Green Snake was not just relieved and happy. She grabbed Chu Wuzhi's shoulders, turned into a ray of light and flew away, flying towards the Feng Shui blessed land near Sanquanwei.

Of course, Chu Wuji couldn't turn into light. If passers-by saw him, they would find that he was like a kite, being dragged around by something.

Soon, the two returned to the waterfall pool, where Chu Wuzhi and his aunt stopped and officially began their conversation.

The group of furry little guys lived and practiced safely here, and the green snake concealed its breath so as not to scare the little guys.

Aunt Green Snake knew that these little white foxes were probably the reason why Chu Wuzhi went to Jieshi City to assassinate the city lord. Ning Xianzhi had mentioned this matter.

She stood in front of the sarcophagus and saw the small hole at a glance. She probed her senses into it and found that the sarcophagus was empty.

Chu Wuji pointed at the stone wall and said:

"There are traces of the Scorpion Demon here. Auntie, take a look and see if they have disappeared. If I hadn't been careful enough, I would have almost failed to realize that the thief was the Scorpion Demon."

"It's been so long, even if this place is a Feng Shui treasure land, the aura has long since disappeared... This matter is not big or small, there is no need to worry too much."

Aunt Green Snake had calmed down by now. She moved to the nearby haystack bed, gently kicked off her shoes, rubbed off her stockings, revealing her delicate feet, and then sat down comfortably cross-legged. Her behavior was informal and spontaneous, truly a chivalrous woman with a passionate and unpretentious temperament. Her likes and dislikes were expressed in words, and she didn't hide anything from you.

The Scorpion Demon's actions are disgusting, almost like digging up someone's ancestral grave, but they will not cause any harm or impact to the White Snake.

After a while, when the White Snake has rebuilt its body and comes out of seclusion, it will be easy for her to find the scent of her own remains. Then she can deal with the Scorpion Demon and bring him back for Chu Wuji to use as a mount!

There is no need to be too anxious at the moment, but although this is said, some people are actually so anxious that their hair has turned gray!

Aunt Green Snake turned her head to look at Chu Wuzhi and found that he was still standing stupidly beside the sarcophagus, looking at her from a distance. He was probably not used to her new appearance and was in the process of adapting.

The green snake was a little helpless. She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she had the familiar green snake eyes, and her lips spit out a long and flexible snake tongue, bewitching, charming and evil.

The snake demon's characteristics that were used to scare him and prevent him from getting too close have now become evidence of recognition.

"Are you familiar with it? Why don't you come to your aunt's place? Are you afraid that I will eat children?"

Chu Wuji then came over and sat down on the soft haystack together. He took the initiative to hug the girl's soft and delicate body and said:

"Aunt, I really thought you were the consciousness of that body, and you died the moment you lay down!"

Qingshe's heart tightened, and the guilt that she had been suppressing all the way surged into her heart. She hugged Chu Wuzhi back with self-blame.

After a while, the girl held up Chu Wuji's face and put her nose against his. Her warm snake tongue quietly slipped into Chu Wuji's teeth, wrapping around his throat and tongue, and she whispered apologetically:

"...Stop talking, you little brat! You've made me feel so guilty. Just pretend to be mute for a while."

Chu Wuji suddenly felt that his aunt's personality was quite interesting. He asked incoherently:

"Aunt, how about you compensate me with some merit and luck, and we'll write off this debt?"

"How can I give you any good fortune? I can accompany you to relive the process of the transfer..."

Aunt Green Snake glared at him fiercely, and Chu Wuji almost thought it was a rejection, but he didn't expect her to agree in disguise.

"Then I'll take a little loss. I just need you to help me repeat the process. I won't force any merit or luck!"

"Are you at a disadvantage yet?" The green snake scolded him with a smile and lightly bit his lips.

Chapter 124: Can your aunt still lie to you?

Aunt Qingshe always called Chu Wuzhi a child, but when he held her in his arms for the second time, she could still strongly feel that he was not small, but strong and energetic.

Although he is young, his body has grown up.

When Chu Wuji hugged her tightly, the green snake lay on the dry haystack, staring at the young man in front of her, and found that her body was completely covered by his strong chest.

If it rained in the cave, the green snake felt that the child could shelter her from the wind and rain, so that her clothes would not get wet.

The woman admired the handsome face of her youngest, and unconsciously confirmed the outline of his back muscles with her hands, and asked softly:

"When you were wearing the warrior robe, I didn't notice that you had grown some weight. Is it tight? I'll help you adjust it when I have time."

"Not for now. My aunt did a good job of modifying it last time." Chu Wuji still didn't feel that the robe had become tight. It fit him comfortably.

While chatting, Chu Wuzhi gently wiped the sharp blade in front of the door to Qingshe's heart, and could already feel Qingshe's aunt's desire to devour her.

She was salivating and eager to eat, anxiously waiting for the food in its prime to fill her longing and hunger.

Chu Wuji asked, "By the way, what should I call you?"

The green snake laughed and scolded, "Silly boy, didn't I say last time that I should call you 'Auntie'? I didn't go out much in the past, and I had no desire to socialize with people, so I was too lazy to come up with a name."

"There will always be times when you run into people, and they'll have to address you normally, right? They can't just call you 'Auntie'."

Women seem to have this impression, just like if you want to buy needles, thread and cloth for embroidery, if you come across a shop you like, you have to go there several times to make purchases. The proprietress will recognize you and will take the initiative to ask your name.

Green Snake remembered that more than two hundred years ago, she had temporarily chosen a name to deal with her mother-in-law who worked in the cloth shop.

"I think I picked the single-character name 'Qing'. A grandmother-in-law, who was only 60 years old but had a head full of white hair, called me 'Miss Qing'. A few years later, she passed away, and no one called me that anymore."

Chu Wuji smiled and said, "It's just my aunt's personality. She was so perfunctory that she chose a homophone. Mother at least gave me the full name 'Bai Sujin'~ But it's enough. From now on, in front of outsiders, at least I have a formal name for my aunt, which is 'Miss Qing'!"

Qing Snake didn't mind this too much. A name is something that is easy to call. If she were to choose another elegant name now, she would be afraid that if Chu Wuji called her several times, Qing Snake would not be able to react that he was calling her.

However, it had been a long time since she heard the name "Miss Qing", and Chu Wuzhi's hair had just turned white, so Qingshe felt inexplicably disappointed and sad.

"Hurry up! You're still dithering there, trying to learn the craft of a needlework shop, grinding an iron rod into a needle?"

Seeing that Qingshe seemed to be really angry and moody, Chu Wuzhi quickly squeezed into her tight embrace. Qingshe, who had just had a stern face, immediately frowned and held her breath in embarrassment.

The green snake thought that since this was the second time she played with him, she should be able to adapt much more easily, but she didn't expect it to be the same as last time... It seems that this "proficiency" was retained in that body of merit.

"Wait, don't, don't use your fighting skills at this time. You're almost going to unleash a dark energy gale. You're going to die!"

"Oh......"

......

After a long time, the tenderness ended, but the lingering charm remained.

Chu Wu Ji sat leaning against the haystack, while the woman with a body as slender as a willow tree lay lazily beside him, unwilling to exert any strength. She rested her head on the younger man's thigh, her heroic face filled with confusion.

Chu Wuzhi picked up some dry grass, the withered and yellow grass was dotted with a touch of bright red. It was really rare that Aunt Green Snake could experience this twice by herself.

Seeing that the woman had sobered up a bit, he asked, "Just now, Auntie, when you heard me call you 'Miss Qing', you suddenly became angry and lost. What's wrong?"

The soft girl was a little surprised. She didn't expect Chu Wuji to talk about this first. She said:

"I'm not angry with you, I'm angry with myself. Looking at your hair, I thought of that old woman who passed away so quickly many years ago.

I only heard her call out "Miss Qing" twice. When I went to the shop again, her daughter had taken over. She said the old man had just passed away two months ago. He was only about 60 years old. It was so sudden..."

Chu Wuji blinked, roughly understanding what Aunt Qingshe was thinking. It turned out that she was afraid that he would die of old age one day.

"Aunt, you're worrying too much. Putting aside all the other things, my energy and blood are far from declining!

Besides, aren't there some immortal cultivators with youthful looks and snow-white hair?"

The woman's snake tongue detected Chu Wuji's remaining food and was about to sweep it away without any hesitation. She replied slowly:

"It's different. Some monks have snow-white hair, but it's soft and shiny. Look at your hair, it's so dry! When did it turn white?"

Chu Wuji smiled helplessly. Ever since his hair turned white, everyone who met him would inevitably talk to him.

This made him a little reluctant to grow back to his shiny black appearance, and he lost a fixed topic of conversation.

"It was probably after you were 'buried,' Auntie. I think I was sad for a few hours, and it took several days for my hair to turn white. I thought it was because my eyes were nourished by the moonlight's spiritual energy, which indirectly affected my hair."

Qing Snake felt a little uncomfortable listening to this. She didn't even know when she was sad. This confused child...

She wanted to touch Chu Wuzhi's head, but she was busy with her mouth, so she reached out and touched his face instead.

"Wu Ji, when I lied to you, saying that Bai Sujin wasn't dead, but had simply passed away, were you sad for me or for Bai Sujin?"

In fact, Green Snake had not yet explained the detailed situation of White Snake to Chu Wuji, but since he could recognize her, she must have guessed it and there was no need to hide it anymore.

Chu Wuji curled his lips helplessly, not understanding why the green snake would be curious about such a question.

He stretched out his hand to confirm whether his aunt's heart was cold, but a layer of warmth and softness blocked his intention to confirm. He could only see that his aunt's heart was quite white and delicate.

"My feeling at the time was that both of them were dead, but my mother had another way to come back to life, while my aunt was more like a last-minute consciousness. Once she died, she was really dead."

Qingshe felt even more apologetic. So, was she really the culprit who caused him to have white hair at such a young age?

After knowing him for a short time, she was able to make him suffer so much. Qingshe felt that she was really worthy of being him!

But we can't blame her entirely, right?

If she had not intervened and had followed her sister Bai Sujin's plan, Chu Wuji would still have to face the result of his mother's death, and he would be confused and not understand the reason, and no one would explain it to him.

At least she left him with a thought and found a better reason, saying that Bai Sujin would "appear" in half a year.

In any case, Qing Snake seemed to understand why her sister went to such great lengths and stayed for almost a year, allowing Chu Wuzhi to slowly adapt to the result that "mother had a strange disease and died without treatment."

If the death had been too sudden, the result would probably be like this. The child would be so sad that his hair turned white.
