What do you mean by "not counting but also counting"?
Such a strange answer.
Jiale was utterly confused, his mind spinning from Xu Yan's words.
"Forget it, bro. It's not going to end well." Xu Yan said.
It was obvious to a blind man that Jiale liked Qingqing. But it was a pity that he had a crush on a disciple of a monk. Attaining the positive fruit of love wouldn't be easy for him.
Every time Xu Yan thought of Qingqing stopping them from killing, he was speechless.
Your Buddhist sect didn't allow killing. Did that mean we Taoists should also follow a vegetarian diet?
Although we are also Taoists, we're not from the Quanzhen Sect. For Xu Yan, a carnivorous creature, this was absolutely intolerable.
"I just... I just..."
Jiale blushed. This was what a novice looked like when faced with emotional matters—more shy than a woman.
"Forget it. Let's go back. Our uncle is waiting for us to make lunch. We'll have grilled fish again, and we can make fish head soup too!"
Life was wonderful. If it weren't for the need to enhance their abilities, Xu Yan would really want to live a reclusive life here forever.
"Oh~"
Jiale's mood instantly dropped. Xu Yan's cold remark was a bit too harsh.
Looking at Jiale who was bowing his head in silence, Xu Yan secretly wondered if he had gone too far. After all, this was the time when youth was full of impulsiveness. Forget it, it was none of his business.
Unfortunately, silence didn't last for more than three minutes. The thoughtless Jiale quickly forgot about it and instead became curious about Ren Tingting.
"Brother, tell me about your wife. What kind of person is she? Is she pretty?"
"Pretty, of course. Why even ask?"
Xu Yan answered naturally, "As for the rest, her family is very wealthy, a prominent family in Renjia Town with countless possessions. She grew up in the provincial capital, well-educated and well-mannered, and she can cook delicious dishes. You'll find out soon."
Master Four Eyes was planning to bring Jiale to Renjia Town for a visit in the future. They would meet her then.
"Brother, you're so amazing!!"
Jiale was shocked. He couldn't even imagine a woman like that!
But what about his junior brother Xu Yan? He had already won over the daughter of a wealthy family, well-educated, elegant, capable in the hall and kitchen. Such a good woman was hard to find.
If Xu Yan told him that he hadn't intentionally pursued Ren Tingting, he wondered if Jiale would be so frustrated that he'd want to bang his head against the wall.
Actually, Xu Yan hadn't planned to do anything with Ren Tingting at that time. His slogan was: only enter your body, not your life. But life had come before he even entered the body.
Different times led to different outcomes.
The only thing that made Xu Yan feel good was that having multiple wives was normal in this era, as long as you had the ability.
He had to go to the city to see it sometime!
Jiale made a secret resolution to follow Xu Yan's footsteps.
Back at the dojo, the two began to prepare the fish and start a fire. It was Jiale's task to prepare the fish, while Xu Yan was only responsible for starting the fire. After all, his cooking skills were not impressive, so he could only survive by helping with the fire.
After eating and drinking their fill, Xu Yan lay on the rattan chair and thought about when he would go back. At that moment, a commotion came from outside.
Xu Yan walked out and looked, clicking his tongue in amazement, "The Qing Dynasty has already fallen, and yet there are still Tartars running around the world?"
Was this the plot from Uncle Vampire?!
Xu Yan suddenly remembered these things and patted his forehead. He had almost forgotten that a spiritually awakened Bronze Armor Zombie would appear here.
The fundamental reason was that the Qing Dynasty had fallen, leaving only a few Tartars who couldn't stir up any big waves.
This zombie seemed to be from the imperial family.
"Slowly, slowly!!!"
On the path outside the dojo, a sizable group pushed a heavy coffin forward. Where the wheels passed, the ground sank in. A coffin made of gold!!
If they could sell this thing, they wouldn't have to worry about money for the rest of their lives.
It seemed like they could do it.
A group of soldiers, a gold coffin, a few guards, plus a few Taoists, eunuchs, and a prince—this was the composition of the group.
"Senior brother, I came to borrow some glutinous rice from you," said Master Qianhe, who had run out of glutinous rice and planned to borrow some from his senior brother, Master Four Eyes, to guard against zombie disturbances.
He knew that the real zombie lay inside the gold coffin, not a dead body.
"Junior brother." Master Four Eyes greeted Jiale and then introduced Xu Yan to Master Qianhe.
Master Qianhe was delighted to hear this: "I've heard from my senior brother that your nephew has exceptional talent and is a rare natural thunder spirit. Today, I finally meet him."
"Uncle, don't listen to him. He's just boasting." Xu Yan replied modestly.
Unexpectedly, Master Four Eyes waved his hand and said to Master Qianhe, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He's very powerful. Maybe even we old men are not as good as him."
"Is that true?!"
Master Qianhe was surprised. How long had Xu Yan been in the door? This was too abnormal.
Xu Yan smiled awkwardly and didn't respond. Instead, he looked curiously at the coffin reflecting golden light in the sunshine and asked, "Uncle, is there a zombie inside?"
"Yes, a zombie." came the reply.
