I Became an Old Man in My Leisure Time

Chapter 237: "Action" Is Effective, the First to Act Is Second

Xiao Man, who was almost in tune with him, instantly sensed the teasing in his tone and was immediately relieved.

Her breath that had been held back also recovered, becoming even more rapid than usual, and she whispered, "Well, is it too late to ask you now?"

Gu Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and couldn't help but pat her hard, "That depends on the results of your practice. My blood and qi are refined from the Void Great Freedom and Formless True Sutra, and the quality is extremely high. You can't waste it in vain."

Xiao Man's brain finally "resurrected", and with a thought, Jiurou blood and qi swept and entangled like a grinding, the surface was soft like cotton, the inside was tough and flexible, and both soft and hard: "How about this?"

Gu Ke chuckled, drove his own blood and qi, and drove the Jiurou blood and qi that actively stuck to him, slowly accelerating the operation.

The two blood and qi blended, and the minds of the two people were also released. The slight obstruction that Xiao Man had originally been unilateral suddenly became smooth and round.

The burning breath hidden in Jiurou's blood was also aroused, from being as gentle as jade to being fiery and restless, lively and jumping like a dancing dragon.

The inspiration was overflowing, nourishing the blood of both parties, and running faster.

Gu Ke's blood was like the boundless void, vast and stable, allowing the burning breath to roll endlessly and freely roaming in it.

The burning breath was smoothed out bit by bit, and the overflowing inspiration finally restored the initial warm feeling.

At this time, Xiaoman's body was covered with fine beads of sweat, and her breathing was still rapid. The skin that was just stained red by the burning breath began to turn back to milky white.

Gu Ke's mind swept over, soothing her fatigue after the rapid circulation of blood, leaving only the joy of relaxation.

Looking at the sky, it was already setting in the west, and the sky was full of fire clouds slowly flowing and changing, which was extremely beautiful.

He shook his head helplessly, pinching Xiaoman, who was like a big ball in his arms: "I let them sleep for an extra hour. Have you thought about what to say when you go back?"

The curled up little girl couldn't help but shudder, stood up, and looked uneasy: "Oh no, what should I do?"

Gu Ke took a deep breath and asked her to relax and not move: "I'm just teasing you, just say that I didn't pay attention for a while and chatted with the eldest lady for a while."

Xiaoman was relieved after hearing this and leaned back again. .

Anyway, it's my fault. The more you explain, the more trouble you will have. Gu Ke muttered to himself, and with a thought, he returned to Yulong Cave Mansion.

With a plop, the two fell into the hot spring pool.

The slightly hot water flowed over her shoulders, and Xiaoman exhaled comfortably.

Gu Ke took a towel and saw that she looked weak, so he could only wash it himself.

The sweat and water stains left by the hard practice were wiped away by the warm towel, and a large area of ​​skin also returned to its usual milky white color.

At this time, Xiaoman miraculously regained some strength, giggling, twisting and turning to avoid, like a naughty child who refused to wash honestly.

Gu Ke grabbed the restless big ball and knocked her head unhappily: "Wash it well, I'm not tickling you, why are you twisting and turning."

Xiaoman hugged him, looked up with starry eyes, and continued to twist and turn to act coquettishly: "It does feel like itching, how can I not laugh."

Gu Ke was just talking, if he continued to toss and turn, it would be dark - Xiao Ping'er and Saranzhu were still asleep.

Fortunately, the divine thoughts and hot springs worked together, and the sweat and water stains from the practice were cleaned up quickly, and most of the time was spent on soothing Xiaoman's lively and unstable mind.

When it was dark, Xiao Ping'er and Saranzhu woke up slowly.

Seeing the sky, both of them were stunned, and then looked at someone next to them.

One of them was a martial saint and the other was a palace spirit. The energy in their bodies exploded, and they could not fall asleep during a nap under normal circumstances.

I slept longer today than I did last night, and this can only be because of Gu Ke.

Someone looked normal, but in fact, he was using his mind to communicate and defeat them one by one.

For Saranzhu, the big naughty boy, there was no need to hide too much, just say that he went out to play with Xiaoman today and would take her out tomorrow.

For Xiaoping'er, he used offense instead of defense and asked her to get up early to watch the stars - it was really early after midnight, and there were stars.

A "small" accident was settled in this way.

Anyway, there were only four of them in the valley, plus Sister Bai who was in meditation.

After a long time, some things could not be hidden at all, and he never thought of hiding them.

They stayed together most of the time, and spent too much time together. When people grow up, they need a little personal space.

Under his guidance, everyone naturally formed a tacit understanding that whoever was alone with Gu Ke was a "personal matter", and others would not delve into it.

Otherwise, when Saranzhu and Xiaoman got together, they could make sweet cream with the taste of chili and garlic, so how could there be a private atmosphere?

Whoever Xiao Ping'er is with, she will subconsciously give in and shrink into a corner.

This is completely no different from the daily life of the four people. Where does the new fun come from?

Everyone's life starts at a minimum of 500 years. If you don't work hard to find new fun in life, how can you spend this long time happily together?

In the previous life, there was the Internet, and billions of people created a flood of information every day, including countless knowledge, entertainment and art.

Even if you are a dead otaku and never leave your house, you will never finish playing.

But in Dawu, most people are still worried about having enough food, and there are monsters threatening their lives.

Twenty years ago, there was only one person in Dawu who could read and write.

There were very few people who could engage in culture and art, and even fewer accumulated, and the speed of entertainment was no different from a turtle.

In the previous life, there was a saying that in the Internet age, an event can only attract people's attention for a few hours.

In Dawu, most of the operas and stories that are widely circulated here are "antiques" that appeared dozens to a hundred years ago.

If new things don't spread enough, they will naturally become obsolete after being passed down for a few generations.

If the spread was too slow, it would have taken twenty or thirty years for the things from the Atrium to spread to the four countries.

You can't rely too much on external updates. Gu Ke has to discover the fun on his own and dig deeper little by little.

Fun is something that if you enjoy it too quickly, your threshold will continue to increase.

When you cannot find higher enjoyment and cannot reach the threshold, people will not be happy and will do many unreasonable things.

That’s why the joy of practicing Buddhism must come slowly.

After enjoying dinner, Xiaoman rarely stayed in bed, lying on the bamboo couch unwilling to move.

But occasionally she would turn her head and look at the hills behind her, with doubts and thoughts in her eyes.

Gu Ke's expression was calm, his mood was inexplicably complicated, and he wanted to laugh.

He had no choice but to stretch out his right hand, release his spiritual thoughts, and comfort him carefully.

Due to his interference, the little girl was too lazy to think about some abnormalities in her practice and calmed down.

Without her good partner, Salanzhu also died down, and Xiao Ping'er was even more happy to see the success.

The four of them stayed quietly in the purple bamboo pavilion, enjoying the shade with Sister Bai who was lying high up.

Gu Yan

An angry wind lantern was hung in the pavilion, with a slight yellowish glow.

Gu Ke picked up a copy of "Supreme Martial Saint" with his left hand and read it slowly, coaxing his three book fans.

The so-called "Supreme Martial Saint" is probably a widely circulated storytelling book by Da Wu.

After frantically filling it with water, he added elements such as the grandfather from the previous life's online novel, falling off a cliff, entering a river, picking up missing treasures, medicine and martial arts, etc., and finally came up with an extra-long version of storytelling.

It is currently only version 0, and the main body is still storytelling, with a little bit of rhetoric added to make the reading experience better.

Anyway, the only three book fans listened with gusto, so there was no need for him to rush to deprive him of the pleasure of starting from scratch and enjoying the complete development history of the novel.

Xiao Ping'er was sitting on a small bamboo chair, listening attentively, and still twirling silk threads in her hands as usual.

Saranzhu chose a rocking chair and rocked back and forth to entertain herself.

From time to time, he would pick up a large crystal cup filled with ale from the side table and take a big sip. Then he would pick up a piece of pork head and pig ears from the braised food platter on the side table, put it into his mouth and chew it loudly.

Xiaoman was lying on his side on the recliner, holding a large yogurt ice cream in his hand and sucking it in his mouth.

Even though my mind was focused on the story, not even a drop of melted ice cream was missed.

Unknowingly, Gu Ke's clear and gentle voice paused: "If you want to hear the funeral, please listen to the breakdown next time."

Xiao Man was still sucking the ice cream. After waiting for a while, the new chapter stopped ringing in his ears, and he suddenly became anxious: "Where is the next chapter? Why is there no more?"

Gu Ke slapped Gao Qiu smoothly: "It's getting late, we'll update tomorrow."

Xiao Man originally wanted to cheat, but in the end, he felt that the hand that had just hit him did not move away, but applied a little force.

She rolled her eyes, shut up decisively, stood up, and pulled up Salanzhu beside her: "Let's go, let's go, I'm so tired today, go to bed early."

Salanzhu pushed her elbow with a look of disgust: "I'm not tired. I've had enough sleep in the afternoon." She glanced at someone as she spoke.

Even so, she did not resist Xiao Man's action, and the two of them pushed each other away.

Here, Xiao Ping'er picked up the flax, her hand was pinched by Gu Ke, and a message from her spiritual mind sounded in her mind: "Go to bed early, we will be stargazing tomorrow morning."

Caressing it with her hands, she couldn't help but hum.

The new moon is shining in the sky, and the beauty's eyes are like water.

The process of stargazing with Xiao Ping'er was not much different from the past, it just took a little more talking.

Salanzhu played with him for a long time with the Void Body, and by the way, he adjusted the water and air of the earth veins in Taiping Cave, and it was even.

Xiaoman, on the other hand, has experienced a blood-qi training and has become more lively and outgoing, and the eyes he usually looks at him are unconcealed.

However, she only has full feelings about blood cultivation, but she has no skills.

It wasn't until the next night that Gu Ke took her to Bihai Cave Mansion again.

The two stood at the window of the small hut, overlooking the night scene, and their blood and energy blended together again. Only then did she realize something: "Did I make a mistake from the beginning of my practice?"

Gu Ke couldn't help but laugh, and whispered in her ear: "It doesn't matter, you are a warm-hearted person, and if you make a small mistake with good intentions, it has nothing to do with the overall situation."

This is how you practice, and you need to use the precious medicine Peach Blossom Ointment to assist you. This is a holy skin care product that he accidentally made.

The materials include peach blossom petals from the oldest peach tree and edible-grade vegetable glycerin, a special product produced when processing vegetable oil.

It has a fragrant smell and mild nature. It feels delicate and silky when applied, speeding up the circulation of blood and making the skin more outstanding.

However, the girls are very powerful and their skin quality is already good, so they hardly use it on weekdays.

Xiaoman frowned and tried to keep up with the speed of his blood flow: "But if this is the case, can I be ranked second?"

Gu Ke was surprised: "What second?"

Xiaoman rolled his eyes and bumped him hard: "As I said, Sister Bai is first, and I am second. As a human being, you must keep your word."

Gu Ke was dumbfounded, and for a moment he didn't know how to analyze her brain circuit.

Fortunately, Xiaoman is straightforward and won't make the kind of "if you love me, how come you don't know what I'm thinking" remarks like in the romantic drama of the previous life.

She confessed without him saying anything: "After the eldest lady came back, you went to have tea with her every afternoon. I won't let her get ahead of you."

"What is this? Oh, that's what Ah Zhu said - the first to strike is the strongest, the last to strike is the soup. Humph, I, Xiong Xiaoman, must eat the meat first and never drink the soup."

Gu Ke looked puzzled: Damn, is this how you shaman duo learn jingles? You actually found theoretical support for yourself by changing the words. I admire you.

After thinking for a while, he still asked: "Then are you willing to put Sister Bai first?"

Xiao Man didn't care: "On the way to the valley, Sister Bai protected me and treated me the best. At that time, the eldest lady didn't even know my name."

Speaking of this, she turned around proudly and squinted: "I'm not stupid. If it weren't for you, the eldest lady and the others would never look at me, a wild girl from the mountain village, in my life."

"And do you remember what I said, I have been very sensitive since I was a child?"

"So I can feel that Sister Bai was the first to treat me well, then I met you, and finally my younger sister, um Azhu... barely half a person."

"So in my eyes, the eldest lady and the others will never be as good as you."

"I'll tell you a little secret quietly, Qiulu and Dongyan are a little bad, a bit like my second brother, and they were jealous that I followed you early at the beginning."

Gu Ke was speechless: Well, Comrade Xiaoxiong has never been stupid, but he is cunning, just doesn't want to play tricks with people close to him.

In fact, she already had a scale in her heart, which clearly distinguished the closeness and distance.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reach out and feel it again: Well, it's Xiaoman, this conscience is really rich, and it's not in vain to love her.

...

Helping Xiaoman practice did not cause much trouble to Gu Ke.

It's just to adjust the work and rest time, and do a good job of time management between the main body and the void body.

Besides, practice is also good for him, at least it can make the blood calm and no longer agitated from time to time.

Xiaoman is even more radiant, and her chubby face often looks like a ripe peach on the peach tree, white and red, moist and spiritual, making people want to take a bite when they see it.

Saranzhu firmly believes that she must have a secret.

Xiaoman shirked all kinds of responsibilities, and finally simply attributed the credit to the skin care product peach blossom cream.

Saranzhu used it with interest, although she didn't notice any changes in her skin, but... she is not a normal person.

At this point, she had nothing to do, so she asked Gu Ke to help her apply peach blossom cream all over her body, and then went out to bask in the sun.

According to her, it seems that there are royal nobles who do this in the Far North Outer Region.

Although she didn't understand, it didn't stop her from trying it out (playing) (fun). Anyway, it felt very comfortable after applying it, and the fragrance was also very good.

Gu Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked up the original formula of peach blossom cream in the literature, as well as the skin care formula and production method of the Dawu Royal Family, and tried them out one by one for Xiaoman to try.
