Mortal practice

On the second day, after Su Jue finished his meditation, he went downstairs to look for Xiao Er, planning to explain to his uncle who might come to look for him in the near future. When passing by Su Bai's room, he suddenly heard a faint whisper coming from inside. It's like talking to someone in youth.

Su Jue was slightly surprised. He didn't think the other party would have any acquaintances and friends here, and the voice sounded like he was talking to someone through a messenger talisman. When will this fox use this thing to communicate with people?

Moreover, he deliberately lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that no one would hear him.

The only person Snow Fox knows here is Su Jue, who else would he be afraid to hear besides Su Jue?

Su Jue raised his eyebrows slightly after realizing this, and knocked on the door of the other party's room.

There was a flurry of noises from inside, as if they were hiding something. After a while, the other party came over and opened the door, looking at Su Jue nervously: "What's the matter? Are you going to eat?"

How does this guy know how to eat?

Su Jue was helpless, and then asked: "Did you talk to someone inside just now?"

"Ah? No...no..." Su Bai's eyes dodged, but the corner of his eyes dishonestly glanced at the pillow next to the bed.

Su Jue followed his gaze, and just happened to see the corner of the message talisman protruding from the pillow.

"New friend?" Su Jue ignored the other party's sophistry at all, and only asked calmly.

Su Bai knew that the other party had noticed it, and it was useless to hide it, so he could only say: "...um."

"Does this person know our plan and whereabouts?" Su Jue directly asked his purpose.

Su Bai's expression froze, and after a moment of disappointment, he hurriedly shook his head: "No, she won't do us any harm. I met her at the venue in Lingzhou before. She is also a snow fox, and she is also the proprietress there."

Su Jue took a closer look at Su Bai's expression, and recognized that the other party was not lying. He heard that the boss of the house had indeed taken a banshee as his wife, so he didn't say anything, and only confessed: "Don't disclose your whereabouts to strangers at will."

Su Bai nodded repeatedly.

After watching Su Jue leave, Su Bai went back to the bed, took out the communication talisman and stared blankly for a while.

This message talisman was given to him by the same woman before leaving Lingzhou, saying that he could use it to chat with boredom in the future, but it would be too far away to talk to him. Fortunately, Lingzhou is not far away from here. distance.

In fact, Su Bai was relieved at the moment.

Su Jue didn't seem to be aware of what he said, but it's okay...

He regained his senses from the thrilling adventure just now, and tried to establish contact with a similar woman again. Not long after, the other party was obviously quite idle now, and the sweet voice of the woman entered Su Bai's consciousness after a while.

"What happened just now?"

"Cough...he heard me talking."

"What?" The other party seemed to be surprised, and then said happily, "It's a good thing he couldn't hear my voice, otherwise you would have burrowed into the ground in embarrassment, hahaha..."

Su Bai's face was on fire: "I never said those words, and I didn't agree with them, you...you said it!"

"But aren't you also considering whether to do as I say?" The other party's tone seemed to know Su Bai very well.

But Su Bai is really easy to understand, his every move comes from the heart, the thoughts in his heart are very easy to be seen through, pure like a piece of white paper.

Su Bai was caught in the heart, and at this moment he was so ashamed that he wanted to go underground.

"Don't just think about it, just do it boldly. After all... as you said, there are not many opportunities. Before you arrive in Micheng, you should take good care of it. As the eldest son of Su, you must pass on the family line." , if he marries another woman at that time, you still have to cry to death?"

"But..." Su Bai worried: "I don't know how at all... And if I really do this, what if Su Jue ignores me again? Then I can't even hope to be by her side."

"Who would hate people who throw themselves into their arms?" The woman snorted disdainfully, and then said, "Besides, you look good in human form. It's too late for many people to like you."

After hearing this, Su Bai showed joy for a moment, and then couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart.

However, such things as appearance happened to be the least valued by Su Jue.If you throw yourself into your arms, the other party may not like it.

It's just that what the other party said really shook him.

He imagined the scene of Su Jue marrying someone else.Will he really be happy even if he is by the other party's side?Every day and every night, I am afraid that Su Jue will no longer be alone, but a stranger. Su Jue may look at her with gentle eyes, treat her with respect as a guest, and carry on the family line with her.

Just thinking about it, Su Bai felt a burst of discomfort, he might be like Ling Chi at that time.

He found that his ability to bear did not seem to be as strong as he thought.

"Then, what should I do specifically?" Su Bai asked cautiously.

The woman seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile: "Hey, listen to me, you are right."

……

When there was a rustle outside the door, Su Jue didn't take it to heart, but continued to practice with his eyes closed until a weak call penetrated into his consciousness.

"Su Jue... are you there?"

It stands to reason that young people should not have the courage to disturb their cultivation on weekdays, unless something happened to them.

"What?" he asked.

The other party's spiritual sense sensed Su Jue's question, and answered hesitantly: "Can... can you come to my room? I may need your help."

Su Jue opened his eyes, and vaguely felt that the other party's tone was not quite right. A doubt flashed in his heart, he got out of bed and left the room, and within a few steps he reached the door of the other party's room.

Seeing that the door was ajar, Su Jue was about to open the door and enter when he suddenly heard the sound of water coming from inside.

Raising his eyebrows in a little surprise, Su Jue asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"That..." The other party's tone was soft and weak, and it felt unnatural to Su Jue's ears, but he couldn't say that it was unnatural: "I have been exposed to a lot of dust these days, so I just want to take a bath, but... …It’s just that the clothes are gone, can you pass me some clothes in?”

Su Jue frowned slightly. For some reason, he felt that something was wrong. After hesitating for a moment, he opened the door and entered the room. He saw a slightly larger water tank behind the screen not far from the bed. There was indeed a young man sitting in it, but because of the screen The wind blocked it, so from Su Jue's perspective, he could only vaguely see the other party's shadow, but it could be judged that it was Su Bai himself.

"Can't you conjure a piece of clothing for yourself?" Su Jue asked what was on his mind.

It was clear that the other party could change clothes by himself when he first transformed into a human form, otherwise, where did the monk's white robe come from?

"I...after entering the water, I just felt so weak that I couldn't use any spells." Su Bai said pitifully.

Su Jue was startled, he didn't think the other party had to tell such a lie, so he looked around, stretched out his hand and pulled the bed curtain and shook it casually, the bed curtain turned into a long robe.

This is a kind of blinding method, and its effect can be maintained for a long time. When the young man recovers his mana, he can change it back, which is the most convenient.

Su Bai sat in the bathtub and listened carefully to the movement outside. Just now he spoke naturally and calmly, but inside he was extremely entangled and restless.

He couldn't help shivering at the thought of what might happen next—nervous.

However, things have been done this far by him, so he can only go all out.

Su Jue's voice sounded not far away: "Put the clothes on the chair?"

Su Bai quickly said: "No." After finishing speaking, he realized that his words were a bit abrupt, coughed unnaturally, and explained: "Su Jue...I can't move..."

Su Jue frowned.

"I don't know why, maybe I was tired a few days ago? Anyway, when I touch the water now, I lose all my strength."

Su Jue asked: "So, you can't even get out of the bathtub?"

"Hmm...it seems to be...cough, I don't know what to do..." Su Bai said with difficulty, with a very conflicted mood after speaking.It is true that his legs are so weak that he can't move now, but it's not because he touched the water, but because telling this lie in front of Su Jue made him feel extremely difficult and flustered.

Outside, Su Jue seemed to be silent for a while, waiting for Su Bai's whole body to stiffen, and the other party finally made a move.

With a calm expression, Su Jue walked around the screen with the newly conjured clothes in his hand and approached him.

Su Bai was half lying on the edge of the bathtub, his long hair like ink sticking wetly on his white skin like jade, he stared blankly at Su Jue approaching, he didn't expect the other party to come in so simply, he didn't know what to do for a while. Where to put it.

Su Bai indeed has a face that he never tires of seeing. His facial lines are soft, and his face is delicate and elegant. At this moment, it is faintly visible in the mist, which adds to the confusion.

However, these seem to be just decorations in Su Jue's eyes.

With his eyes still calm, with a light wave, he threw the robe directly on Xuehu with both hands, and then suddenly stretched out his hands to hold Su Bai's arms.

Su Bai realized what he was going to do, and his heart was confused, thinking that if Su Jue really acted like this, wouldn't all the previous actions be in vain?

However, his heart was in a mess, Xuehu's body was already sensitive in the water, and when Su Jue touched him, his whole body became numb, so how could he care about thinking about countermeasures?This distraction, even though Su Jue lifted him out of the water, at the same time the robe was controlled and wrapped around him automatically.

Su Bai only felt that Su Jue was very close to him now, Su Jue's aura was close at hand, his legs were already weak, this time it was even worse, he almost knelt down on the ground, just happened to step on the clothes made of the bed curtain, The cloth was unexpectedly smooth and tight, and after stepping on Su Bai, he couldn't stand still, and suddenly fell back, his hands subconsciously stretched out to grab Su Jue, the only one in front of him that could be pulled.

Su Jue also didn't notice it for a while, he had never encountered such a situation, and he didn't notice the young man's actions at this moment, and he didn't expect the other party's canned food to have such great strength. They also slid forward, and the two accidentally fell back into the bathtub together.

For a moment, the water splashed everywhere, and the small screen was hit by the impact of the bathtub and knocked down.

Su Bai held on to Su Jue's lapel, still in shock, and Su Jue was also held by him. It was rare to be at a loss for a moment at this moment.

Because they were too close, Su Jue could see the tiny pores on the young man's face.

By coincidence, he didn't pull the young man away immediately and dragged his hand to leave this place.

Su Bai even lost his mind for a moment, not only because he was frightened, but he just felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

However, Su Jue's whole body froze suddenly, and Shi Shi suddenly stopped somewhere at the door.

Su Bai was taken aback for a moment, and followed his line of sight inexplicably.

I saw a tall, well-dressed middle-aged monk looking at him coldly, with a stiff expression.The other party's hair was tied up meticulously, and there was a word on the waist tag that symbolized the identity faction - Su.

Looking at the situation in front of him, the other party snorted coldly, turned around and left straight away.

The corner of Su Jue's mouth twitched.How did things become like this?

He turned his head to look at the culprit. His handsome face was already pale with fright, and the hand that was holding his skirt seemed to have forgotten to be taken back, and was trembling slightly at the moment.

"I..." Su Bai spoke with difficulty, feeling like he was about to cry.

He just wants to kill himself now.

Are you afraid now?

Su Jue rubbed between his brows helplessly, pulled away the hand of the young man who was still sinking into self-reproach and self-disgust, and walked out of the bathtub.

In this case, it is naturally necessary to explain.

Even if the other party may not believe it at all.

He turned his head to look at Su Bai who was like a lost soul, and said, "Put on your clothes first, stay here and don't come out."
