I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation - Chapter 1187
1187 Elder’s concern.
The black-awning boat continued to move forward and gradually approached the pile of corpses.
However, although the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, they seemed to be forever separated by a distance and could not really close.
The sight of the many corpses was even more shocking when they got closer.
!!
Mud and sand had accumulated in between the corpses, and many Yin-type spiritual plants had even grown there, climbing freely between the skeletons and bones. There were also many blades, Spears, swords, and halberds that had lost their spirituality and fell into it. They were no longer as sharp as they used to be, and they became rusty ordinary iron.
Looking into the dense forest, it felt even more desolate.
And an extremely obscure fluctuation came from the depths of the corpse.
The fluctuation was not terrifying, nor was it evil. Instead, it was full of vitality, clear and ethereal, like the drifting rhythm of Dao. In PEI Ling’s perception, he could not sense any sense of danger. His heart was surging as if he had encountered a great opportunity or fortune.
A strong sense of bewitchment assaulted his heart.
It was as if there was an unparalleled great benefit in the corpse. Any living being, as long as they got close to it and caught it, would immediately become an immortal and ascend to the heavens …
PEI Ling quickly collected his thoughts and looked solemnly at the black-awning boat and the corpse that passed by each other at a distance.
Amidst the sound of water, the pile of corpses gradually moved further away.
The eerie aura and strong bewitching intent also gradually faded until it disappeared.
After that, everything was peaceful.
The gray sky started to darken bit by bit.
Just before the night completely fell, a light finally appeared on the surface of the river in the distance.
They arrived at the second station.
The black-awning boat didn’t need to be controlled, and it sailed toward the light.
A moment later, it leaned against a small, dilapidated dock.
There was no one at the dock, and the sky began to quickly dim.
PEI Ling took down the lantern from the canopy and got off the boat with su Xirou. They walked to the courier station by the river.
Just as he stepped onto the bridge, it was as if the night lights were suddenly blown out. The remaining light in the sky disappeared without a trace, and thick darkness fell.
In the dark night, the river water churned, and an unknown object jumped into it, stirring up ripples and emitting a strong fishy smell and the sound of water.
In the darkness, there seemed to be countless eyes from all directions, full of desire and coveting.
A strong sense of threat surged like a tide.
PEI Ling’s expression did not change. He carried the lantern and, with the help of the blue light, quietly walked forward.
Soon, he and su Xirou arrived in front of the second Inn.
This was a water relay station, and the plaque on it had fallen off even more. The first two words had already been completely weathered, and only the second two words,”relay station,” could be barely recognized.
The overall layout was similar to the first courier station, and the door was also left ajar. However, this courier station was built near the water, so there were many water-related decorations and patterns. The air was also very wet, and the water vapor was very strong.
There was also the unique fishy smell of aquatic products.
PEI Ling and su Xirou pushed the door open and entered. They turned around the wall, passed through the courtyard, and walked into the lobby of the courier station.
The hall was very low.
However, just like the rest stop before, it was brightly lit as if it was daytime.
Each light was placed in a water tank.
The water tank was filled with a dark liquid, and the lamp was floating above it, shaking slightly.
There seemed to be something alive in the liquid, and it would ripple from time to time.
Behind the counter near the door stood a man in a black robe. His hood was pulled down so low that no one could see his face.
Seeing that someone had entered, the black-robed man spoke in an obscure voice, ” “Stay here for five days before you can go to the next stop.”
Hearing this, PEI Ling was not surprised. He asked directly, ” “What are the rules of this place?”
don’t answer when you knock on the door, ” the black-robed man said hoarsely. don’t turn back when you Pat on the shoulder.
“Many thanks,” PEI Ling nodded.
He and su Xirou sat down in an empty seat, and the black-robed man silently filled two bowls of soul wine and served them.
PEI Ling took the soul wine and drank it in one gulp. Su Xirou was the same.
After finishing the soul wine, PEI Ling did not stay any longer. He immediately stood up and walked towards the house behind with su Xirou following closely behind.
They walked out of the main hall through the back door and entered a narrow corridor.
At the end of the tunnel was a long corridor. There were many doors in the corridor, and each door led to a house.
PEI Ling walked to the door of a half-open empty house. After standing still, he suddenly said, ” “Senior, this place is treacherous and extremely dangerous.”
“For safety’s sake, please stay in the same room with me, senior.”
Su Xirou remained silent and looked at PEI Ling coldly.
PEI Ling’s expression did not change as he continued, don’t worry, senior. I’m the sect master of glory sect. I’ve always been upright and righteous. How could I do something like that? ”
as the saying goes, things are urgent. The most important thing now is to leave this place alive.
“If anything were to happen to either one of us, it would be extremely bad for senior’s path back to the Dao.”
cultivators of our generation pursue the great carefreeness and freedom. We just need to have a clear conscience. Why should we be bound by the elaborate formalities of the secular world? ”
if there are still many rules and restrictions in cultivation, wouldn’t you be walking on the wrong path and your Dao heart be covered in dust? ”
moreover, I, su Lijing, am already married. My Dao partner, Sihong Qingqian, is the number one beauty of the Sihong clan. Furthermore, she is virtuous, gentle, and kind. With a wife like this, what more can I ask for …
As he spoke, PEI Ling became more and more uncertain. Could it be that su Xirou had already guessed his intention … Uh, no, misunderstood his intention?
Just as PEI Ling was about to find more excuses, su Xirou looked away and said, ” “Your cultivation base … Is only … Return To Void intermediate stage ….”
“And … He’s a su clan’s junior …”
“This senior …”
“I do … Need to take care of you … You …”
PEI Ling was stunned when he heard this. After he reacted, he was overjoyed.
Su Xirou was right!
He needed her to take good care of him because he was weak. He didn’t have any evil intentions, and su Xirou lived with him because of the love of an elder …
Thus, PEI Ling pushed the door open and reached out to hold su Xirou’s slender waist. It was cold and soft to the touch, but it was chilling.
“Then, senior, let’s go in quickly!” PEI Ling immediately said.
Su Xirou nodded and did not resist at all. She allowed PEI Ling to bring her into the room …
???
In the inn’s lobby.
Outside the door, there was the sound of footsteps.
Soon, a cultivator dressed in luxurious clothes walked in. He was dressed in a gorgeous robe with Dragon emblems and Phoenix emblems. He wore a golden crown on his head and several Jade seals hung from his waist. His aura was surging, but it was mixed with a sense of chaos.
The cultivator entered and sat down at a table.
The black-robed man poured a bowl of soul wine without a word.
The Golden-crowned cultivator picked up the bowl and drank it all.
The chaotic aura around his body had calmed down a little.
Immediately after, a beautiful female cultivator arrived.
The female cultivator was beautiful and graceful, her brows bright and beautiful. She was wearing a colorful dress with jingling pendants. She held a flower branch with light pink double petals in her hand. Her steps were light, and she was as light as a butterfly.
Her aura was the same as the Golden-crowned cultivator’s. It was powerful but mixed with traces of chaos.
The black-robed man also served her a bowl of soul wine. The female cultivator covered her face with her sleeves and drank it all.
Not long after, the third cultivator arrived.
He was tall and burly, and his entire body was hidden in a thick and ferocious armor. Not even a single strand of his hair was exposed. Every step he took caused the entire ground to tremble slightly.
After taking a seat, he also drank the soul wine that the black-robed man had given him …
