Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

The next morning, Teng Shenyi was awakened by the smell of rice.

He twitched his nose, jumped off the bed, and saw the white figure in front of the table.

Pei Yu had already heard the noise. He hooked his finger at Teng Shenyi, motioning him to come over.

Teng Shenyi moved his head, not wanting to pay attention to this person, but finally couldn't resist the temptation of the fragrance and walked over.

Pei Yu leaned over, picked up the fox and put it on the stool, then brought him the weighed dishes and placed them in front of him.

The moment the aroma of meat entered his nose, Teng Shenyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

He was still worried whether the monk would prepare vegetarian food for him.

As a human being, Teng Shenyi doesn’t care what he eats, but now he is a fox, so he still has to behave like a fox.

Teng Shenyi took a bite of the meat on the plate. Without too much seasoning, the meat was fragrant and tasted great.

Supplies were scarce in the northwest, and people had to eat a lot of dry food during marches and battles. When they occasionally hunted some animals, they could only simply sprinkle some seasoning on them, which was far less delicate than the ones made by the chefs in the mansion.

Teng Shenyi ate happily, and only after he finished did he realize that Pei Yu was staring at him.

Then it scratched the plate with its little paws, clearly meaning it wanted more.

Pei Yu looked away and pointed at his already bulging belly: "No more, the food is not good enough."

Only then did Teng Shenyi obediently retract his claws.

After Pei Yu put Teng Shenyi in a good position to deal with the used dishes and chopsticks, he called the middle-aged man sent by Governor Wang yesterday to collect them.

"Master Kongji, the governor invites you to sit with him for a while in the pavilion in the backyard in half an hour."

Pei Yu nodded to show that he understood.

Pei Yu: "Would you mind preparing a basin of hot water for Kong Ji?"

The middle-aged man remembered that Pei Yu had asked for hot water when he got up in the morning, but he still went to bring the hot water as Pei Yu asked.

There was a slight sound coming from the room, as if some porcelain was knocked over and then shattered.

The middle-aged man was stunned: "Mr. Kong Ji, what's in the room..."

Pei Yu chuckled and said, "I found a puppy in the yard while taking a walk last night. It might be scared because it is timid."

There was a look of doubt in the middle-aged man's eyes. Would there be a puppy in the governor's mansion?

But on second thought, it is also possible that it was secretly raised by one of the young masters or young ladies in the mansion, and it happened to run into Pei Yu's yard last night.

The middle-aged man didn't ask any more questions and went to prepare hot water.

Teng Shenyi was originally left by Pei Yu in a place where no one outside the door could see him. He heard several key points from the conversation.

——The monk who brought him back was named Kongji. This was the governor’s residence in Xianzhou, and he was a guest invited by the governor.

——The governor has something to discuss with this Buddhist disciple Kongji.

But, what important matter does the governor want to discuss with a monk?

As the governor treated him with such an attitude, this Buddhist named Kongji must be no ordinary person.

If we could test the monk's character and ask him for help to return to the northwest, wouldn't that be much easier?

Afterwards, he would give the monk whatever reward he asked for, whether it was a title or gold, silver or jewelry.

His deputy general rebelled and plotted to murder him, and the war in the northwest was changing rapidly. Only by returning as soon as possible could he stabilize the situation and restore the righteousness of the Li Dynasty.

As Young Marquis Teng thought so, his fluffy tail couldn't help but swing back and forth.

Then, with a click, the white jade vase on the table fell to the ground.

The broken pieces of the vase were scattered all over the floor, and Teng Shenyi was stunned.

He looked back at his tail which had stiffened in an instant and felt like crying but had no tears.

What kind of help is this?

I just hope that the monk, as a Buddhist monk, will have some compassion and, seeing the mess he has made, will not skin him and make a fur collar.

Teng Shenyi raised his hind legs and stepped on his fox tail.

Let you shake!

A tail actually did something that caused him trouble!

Pei Yu turned around and saw the little fox looking listless, with its big dark eyes filled with an expression of disappointment.

Pei Yu stepped over, raised his hand and took the fox into his arms: "Are you in trouble?"

There was no anger in the clear and smiling voice, but Teng Shenyi felt even more ashamed and angry. He rested his chin on Pei Yu's arm with his tail drooping.

Pei Yu saw Teng Shenyi like this, raised his hand and grabbed his tail: "Use it to knock down the vase."

Hearing this, Teng Shenyi suddenly raised his head and stared at Pei Yu eagerly.

Are you going to chop off his tail?

Teng Shenyi's tail shook a few times, trembling.

Pei Yu: "Don't worry, I won't chop off your tail."

Teng Shenyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, fortunately, monks are indeed compassionate.

Pei Yu pinched the tip of Teng Shenyi's ear with his fingertips: "Not all monks are like me."

Teng Shenyi groaned inwardly, thinking that this bald monk with the Buddhist name Kongji was really good at flattering himself.

Pei Yu paused for a moment, "No swearing."

Ok?

hmmmm?

Teng Shenyi shuddered all over and realized something.

This monk... can hear what he is thinking? !

Then... doesn't that mean he already knows who he is?

What will happen to him then?

Teng Shenyi couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.

However, Pei Yu just hugged him, and after there was a knock on the door, Pei Yu told the person outside to just put the hot water at the door.

Pei Yu put the fox in his arms aside first, pushed the door open a crack to make sure there was no one there, and then brought back the basin of hot water.

The height of the table was just right. Pei Yu scooped up the fox and, after testing the water temperature for a suitable temperature, put Teng Shenyi in.

Teng Shenyi, who was so lost in thought, had no idea when Pei Yu picked him up again and put him in the basin of water.

When the warm water spread all over his body, Teng Shenyi realized that Pei Yu was actually giving him a bath?

A man, bathing him?

Although he is a fox now, the man is a monk.

But this is simply... simply outrageous!

He suddenly wanted to run out of the basin on all fours.

Pei Yu was caught off guard and had water splashed all over his face. He couldn't help but hold down the fox whose fur stood on end, and raised his hand to stroke the fur on his back all the way to the base of his tail.

"Don't make trouble. You'll catch a cold if the water is cold."
