Mortal practice

Su Jue glanced at the young man with a face full of taking it for granted, and was somewhat at a loss for what to say.

Seeing this, the proprietress was startled, recalling the previous conversation with Su Jue, she thought to herself, could this handsome young man be the snow fox from the beginning?

This is incredible. She has lived for so many years. It is not that she has never heard of a spirit fox turning into a human body, but she has never seen it with her own eyes. Now that this guess is in her mind, she suddenly feels an eye-opener and thinks about what the other party did before. Because, it seems that it is not so difficult to understand, and I feel more and more that the young master is full of spiritual energy, so when he saw the young master who was at a loss because Su Jue didn't take the bowl for a long time, he felt a little unbearable: "Although this young master It's a bit reckless, but now it seems that spending several hours of thought to make this dish for the immortal is also a piece of loyalty."

Su Jue glanced at her indifferently, and the proprietress immediately fell silent.

Su Jue didn't speak, after all he took the bowl with one hand, turned around and walked upstairs, turned his head to see the young man still standing still, and asked, "Aren't you coming up?"

An undetectable look of joy flashed in the other party's eyes, and he quickly ran behind Su Jue, and followed him upstairs.

Su Jue put the bowl on the table, Xuehu stared blankly at the bowl, as if wondering why Su Jue didn't eat it, seeing this, Su Jue felt helpless for the first time, he sat on the chair and looked at Xuehu: "Don't you I don't want to know where this is, why are you here?"

The other party was stunned, and asked hesitantly, "...why?"

Su Jue had some doubts about how the other party had practiced for so many years. He was taken to a completely unfamiliar place by himself, and he had to remind himself before he had some doubts and asked a question.

After briefly explaining the cause and effect to the other party, Su Jue said: "Now that you are healed, you can find your own way out, but don't go back to the cave near Yunxiu Mountain for the time being."

After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "In the final analysis, I was the one who got involved with you. If there is anything else you need my help for, you can tell me right now."

However, after saying this, he saw the young man staring blankly at the dish on the table, wondering if the other party had listened to his words.

The atmosphere in the room was silent for a moment, Su Jue was about to say something more, when the young man murmured: "There is something..."

"What's the matter?" Su Jue asked patiently seeing the other party's uneasy expression.

"Can I follow you?" The other party looked at Su Jue expectantly.

Su Jue was startled when he heard this, and then frowned slightly.

He didn't want to bring a troublesome person on the road. Apart from practicing, he also had to deal with the Liang family. It would be inconvenient to bring this guy along.

Seeing his expression like this, the young man seemed to have expected it, pursed his lips, and said quickly: "I won't cause you any trouble, let alone harm you."

"Why do you have to follow me?" Su Jue asked.He wasn't worried that the other party would harm him.

"I've never been out of Yunxiu Mountain, and I don't know where to go, and... you saved my life... twice, and I want to repay you." The other party said, his voice gradually weakened.

"You have already repaid it, and besides, I didn't do much to save you. It's time for you and me to settle the matter." Su Jue pointed out what he believed to be the truth.

The other party shook his head, and thought for a while before continuing: "More than that... I have been staying in that cave for as long as I can remember. My father and mother were implicated and killed in a big war. Since then, it has become very strange. Cold... Then no one or anything can talk to me. I have been there for more than 100 years, and I have met many monks like you, but because of the death of my parents, I did not dare to show my signs. When I arrived at Orion, I was seriously injured..."

"With your cultivation, you can't beat an Orion?" Su Jue interrupted when he found something out of the ordinary.

The young man lowered his head in embarrassment: "I...have never encountered such a situation. I fell into the trap without paying attention, and only thought of using my power to escape after being seriously injured... I returned to the cave without moving for several days. I thought I was going to die that day. , you appeared, and stayed with me there...for a long time, I...I'm used to it..."

As he spoke, he raised his head and took a peek at Su Jue, then lowered his head with a blushing face, apparently not telling the whole truth.

A sense of strangeness surged up in Su's determination, but he didn't think deeply, and said again: "This is only because I am the first person to stay with you for more than a year. A year itself is a very short time. You have many I have the opportunity to meet more people, there is no need to follow me."

The young man looked at Su Jue, who had a reasonable expression, and there was some disappointment in his eyes. He said in a low voice, "But I just want to follow you... I won't disturb you, isn't that all right?"

Seeing the other party's expression, Su Jue paused, thinking that if the other party could try not to cause any trouble for him as he said, it would not be completely impossible for him to go with him.

It was a very cold day now, and the rabbit meat next to it was completely cold, but when I thought about it, it could still faintly float to the tip of Su Jue's nose.

Randomly glanced at the dishes on the table, Su Jue thought for a while, and finally said: "In that case, you can go with me."

The young man's eyes lit up instantly, and there was a bright smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he suddenly remembered something, he quickly moved the bowl on the table towards Su Jue: "Do you want to eat this?"

Su determined to know that the other party has been caring about this, he was a little speechless, and he didn't refuse, and was about to move his chopsticks, but the young man seemed to sense something, but he didn't move his hands away, but quickly said with both hands holding the bowl: "Wait, this ...this one seems to be cold."

Just as Su Jue was about to say no problem, he saw a white light glow between the other's slender and fair fingers, and after a while, a bowl of rabbit meat was steaming.

Only then did the young man hand the bowl to Su Jue again with satisfaction.

Su Jue couldn't understand why the other party cared so much for him. Even his parents never cared about his food. On the contrary, it was this little snow fox who valued himself more than his life. We have been getting along for a while, and we have always treated him with a cold face, but the other party is not affected at all.

It was true that Su Jue hadn't eaten for a while, and the taste of the rabbit meat was a hundred times better than that of the other party's roughly roasted meat. When he raised his eyes, he saw the young man's expectant face, as if he was waiting for him to say something. Su Jue then said, "Very good."

When the other party heard this, the smile on his face became brighter, and he seemed very satisfied.

Su Jue said: "Leave Qiyang City tomorrow."

The other party nodded again and again: "Okay."

Su Jue looked at the other party's expression, thinking that if he sold him out, the other party would count the money for him with a smile.

The young man returned to his original form and rested for a night, and the next day he was refreshed again.It was rare that there was no wind outside on the day we left, and the two of them didn't have anything to clean up. When they went downstairs, they saw the proprietress and the waiter having a chat in their daily life. The two saw Su Jue going downstairs. The proprietress asked: "Both guests Officer, are you leaving?"

Su was absolutely noncommittal, and the young man beside him quickly nodded and said, "Yes."

The lady proprietress quickly took out two native eggs from a basket behind her, and said, "You two, please wait a little longer. At first, you gave me a little more money, and there is nothing in the small shop. The hen raised in the backyard gave birth this morning." A few eggs, how about..." She was a little embarrassed and handed the eggs to the young man who seemed gentler and more talkative. After all, he had exchanged a few words before, and the other party probably would not refuse.

The young man transformed into a snow fox was stunned, and he really reached out to take the egg, and grinned: "Thank you, lady boss."

Su Jue didn't speak, just stood there quietly.

The young man glanced at Su Jue's calm expression, fearing that the other party would wait for a long time, he hurriedly said, "Then shall we say goodbye?"

The proprietress nodded with a smile: "Guest officer, go slowly."

"Miss Boss, there are not enough eggs in the kitchen, are there any eggs?" The cook of the inn happened to come out at this time, and just as he finished speaking, he saw a handsome young man in white, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Master!" The young man called out in surprise.

"Cough," the cook said that he was still worried about being forced to teach at that time, but he was called a master, and the other party was really talented, so he couldn't help but put on a more dignified look at this moment: "Leaving?"

"Yes."

The other party seemed unable to think of what to say next, and nodded awkwardly: "Then go slowly."

The young man happily said goodbye to a few people he thought he already knew, and when he looked back, he found that Su Jue had already walked towards the door, and quickly followed him.

After leaving the inn, Su Jue walked straight towards the city gate. Along the way, he was surrounded by all kinds of small shops, various pedestrians, and many small stalls with novel goods. Xuehu, who had left Yunxiu Mountain for the first time, couldn't stop looking around, talking from time to time. Let out an exclamation.

Su Jue walked ahead, doubting whether his decision to bring the other party was correct.

He glanced at the young man who was staring intently at a child playing a rattle, and noticed that the child's parents were staring at him vigilantly, and were about to call out, but found that he didn't know his name, so he frowned and said, "Don't look. "

The young man naturally knew that the other party was talking to him. He realized that he might have slowed down Su Jue's schedule, and he couldn't help feeling annoyed. Fearing that Su Jue would chase him away because of this, he quickly followed, suppressing the desire to look around.

Su Jue did intend to chase someone away - if the other party still wastes his time and does something stupid.

Seeing that the other party didn't procrastinate any longer, Su made up his mind and heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that being outside was no better than being in Yunxiu Mountain, and not knowing the other party's name would be troublesome, so he asked, "What should I call you?"

"Ah?" The young man didn't seem to understand what Su Jue meant.

Su Jue could only ask, "Do you have a name?"

"What does the name mean?" the young man asked foolishly.

Su Jue remembered that the other party said that he had been living in that cave all the time, and that his father and mother had also died earlier, so he felt a little helpless, and explained: "Your name is what the outside world calls you. If my surname is Su Mingjue, could it be that your parents never named for you?"

The young man thought for a while, then shook his head: "No... oh no, it seems there are..."

Su Jue felt that his patience was almost exhausted.

Seemingly sensing Su Jue's impatience, the young man hurriedly said, "My father and mother call me Ah Bai, does this count as a name?"

Su Jue glanced at the young man in white, nodded and said, "Forget it."

The young man asked again: "Then what is my surname? Your surname is Su, what about me?"

Su Jue frowned, and asked inexplicably, "How do I know?"

The other party thought for a while and said, "My surname is also Su? Su Abai?"

Su Jue didn't answer any more.

The young man seemed to think it was a good name, and he smiled as if he had discovered a new world: "Su Bai, how about Su Bai?"

Su Jue's footsteps paused, and he looked towards a certain corner of the street. Seeing that Su Jue didn't answer, the young man who had just named himself Su Bai had no choice but to follow Su Jue's eyes and look forward to the left.

There were a few people standing there with their backs to them. These people were dressed in familiar clothes and were stopping people on the street to ask some questions. Although the distance was not close, Su Jue, as a monk, had sensitive five senses, so he could hear them naturally. What is the other person asking.

"They...are dressed like those two last time?" The young man seemed to realize something, his expression changed for the first time, and he looked at Su Jue worriedly.
