Chapter 35: Bathing and fasting
As soon as he returned to the Water Stopping Temple, Xiao Fan immediately entered the underground secret room and began to retreat.
The underground floor area of the water stop view is even wider than the area of the surface building. From the secret room where Xiao Fan lives every day, a secret passage behind the bookshelf enters, and he comes to a small house with empty walls, and then opens the mechanism to enter the basement.
The mechanism is not complicated, and the only requirement is that it must be opened with pure Haoran righteousness.
Haoran righteousness is the body protection skill of the ancestors of Wujimen in the past generations.
In the basement, there are three huge secret rooms, which are used to house the various books of the Wuji Gate. All the classics, taken together, are the "Wuji Shuzang".
Xiao Fan entered the basement with the five pieces of cloth array artifacts retrieved from the ancestral tomb.
Xin Lin knew that he wanted to find clues from the vast number of texts. Although Xiao Fan is the most talented wizard Xin Lin has ever seen in her life, after all, the human brain is not a computer, no matter how outstanding Xiao Fan is, it is impossible for him to deeply sink the three rooms full of "Wuji Hidden Arts" into his mind in twenty years.
What's more, in the past ten years, he still had to finish his studies like an ordinary student, although he could study the classics of Wujimen in class or after school, he still had to be distracted. It wasn't until he was admitted to university and entered the Taoist College that Xiao Fan was able to spend all his time on the study of "Wuji Shuzang".
Xiao Fan's main focus is still on the study of "Wuji Nine Phases", and the study of other physiognomy feng shui divination schools is only used as a reference for his study of "Wuji Nine Phases".
Xin Lin personally took on the responsibility of taking care of Xiao Fan's daily life. Very carefully cut the five-grade leaf wild ginseng into thin slices, put it in a delicate porcelain plate, and placed it in the place where Xiao Fan was handy, Xiao Fan was tired, and he could grab the ginseng slices as soon as he stretched out his hand. In addition, Xin Lin personally cooked three meals a day, and stewed pine nuts, pine mushrooms, lotus seeds, black sesame seeds, astragalus, yam and other foods and medicines that greatly replenished vitality with turtle meat and sent them to Xiao Fan.
Rao is like this, Xin Lin still saw Xiao Fan a little haggard, and a circle of green stubble grew on his lips, and in just three days, he seemed to be several years older.
Xin Lin didn't dare to persuade.
A man like Xiao Fan, peace is really peaceful, and stubbornness is also really stubborn!
Those who achieve great things have a characteristic, that is, they are particularly determined, and once they have made up their minds, no one's persuasion will help, but will only disturb their minds.
On the fourth day, Xin Lin walked into the basement with a bowl of steaming turtle meat soup, and found that Xiao Fan had put down his books, paced slowly in the secret room with his hands behind his back, and his complexion was much better than yesterday.
"Found a clue?"
Xin Lin handed the turtle soup to Xiao Fan and asked softly.
Xiao Fan shook his head slowly, ate the turtle meat soup one bite at a time, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "Jia'er, prepare to take a bath and fast for a day." ”
Xin Lin was taken aback and said, "Do you still have to calculate?" ”
Xiao Fan bowed his head slightly and said, "I don't have time to look for clues." ”
Xin Lin nodded silently.
She knew that this matter was already related to the life and death of the entire Xiao family, the old man was still hospitalized, the crisis was imminent, no matter how deep Xiao Fan's cultivation and concentration were, he would never be able to sit idly by.
Xiao Fan's secret room for daily living and meditation is actually a "suite", and there is a natural hot spring bath next door, which is not big and can accommodate two to three people to bathe. On weekdays, this hot spring bath is shared by Xiao Fan and Xin Lin, and it is separated when bathing naturally.
But Xiao Fan officially fasted and bathed with an exception.
The whole bathroom is full of clouds and mist.
The bathrooms are specially designed so that the mist does not emanate from the roof, but is pumped into the underground sewers by an exhaust fan. If you are not a nearby resident, even if you pass by this bamboo forest, you will never know that there is a small Taoist temple hidden in it.
Xiao Fan soaked in the bath.
It seems that Xiao Fan is delicate and not burly and strong, in fact, Xiao Fan has a long body and toned muscles, but his complexion is fairer, which is different from the bronzed skin of Mr. Bodybuilder in the gym.
Two young ladies in their twenties walked into the bathroom, ready to bathe Xiao Fan.
In addition to Xin Lin, there are six women who are responsible for various daily work, all of which were brought by Xin Lin from Qimiao Palace, which means a bit of "dowry girl". Xin Lin is the "gift" of the palace master of Qimiao Palace to the ancestor of Zhishui, and according to the "gentleman's agreement" between the two heads, Xin Lin must protect Xiao Fan for seven years. At the end of the seven-year period, Xiao Fan is safe, and Xin Lin can return to his own door.
This "gift" was won by the Patriarch Zhishui many years ago, but Xin Lin was still young at that time, and the exercises had not been completed. The Water Stopping Patriarch agreed that Xin Lin would continue to stay in the Seven Miao Palace to cultivate. Three years ago, Xin Lin Yiman was a teacher, and he came to Zhishui Temple as promised.
Xin Lin is only responsible for protecting Xiao Fan, and the six women are to serve Xin Lin.
The "bet" that the Ancestor of the Water Stopping Sect can see can never be an ordinary disciple of the Seven Miao Palace.
Xiao Fan half lay down and half leaned in the bath, closing his eyes and recuperating.
For three days without sleep, I flipped through various classics, and from time to time I used my true qi to investigate those few magic weapons, which was quite confusing. With the depth of Xiao Fan's inner rest, he also needs to recuperate for a few hours before he can fully recover.
The two young ladies came to the bath, took off their clogs, and were about to enter the water, when Xin Lin walked in and waved her hand gently. The two girls bowed slightly and quietly withdrew.
Xin Lin was dressed in a moon-white light gauze dress, with black hair and bare white feet, walked over slowly, bent her knees, knelt down gently by the bath, and picked up Xiao Fan's arm.
Xiao Fan sighed lightly and said, "Jia'er, you are the holy daughter of the Seven Wonders Palace......"
Xin Lin said indifferently: "So what does it matter? ”
Xiao Fan couldn't help but be speechless.
The Holy Maiden of the Seven Wonderful Palace, how revered is her status? He has always been the heir in the first line of the Seven Miao Palace Lord, that is, the Reserve Palace Master. In addition to the palace master, Qimiao Palace is the most noble as a saint.
"In the past seven years, if you have an accident, I won't survive."
Xin Lin said casually.
This is indeed the agreement between the Ancestor of the Water Stop and the Lord of the Seven Wonderful Palace, the Ancestor of the Water Stop has placed a "ban on the same fate" on Xiao Fan and Xin Lin in a very clever way, and in the seven years that Xin Lin has served as Xiao Fan's protector, if Xiao Fan has an accident, the ban on Xin Lin's body will be triggered immediately.
Of course, this prohibition is one-way, only effective for Xin Lin, and does not have any restrictions on Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan actually didn't approve of this, but the master's order could not be disobeyed.
"Jia'er, that prohibition was issued by the master, I can't break it, only the master and his old man can break it personally."
Xiao Fan said apologetically. If he could crack it, he would have solved it a long time ago. Xiao Fan was never willing to "enslave" anyone, let alone "enslave" Xin Lin.
"It doesn't matter, this is all the agreement of the masters at the beginning."
Xin Lin said calmly, not caring at all, picked up the light yarn at hand, soaked it in the hot spring, and covered Xiao Fan's mouth. Xiao Fan already had a circle of stubble on his lips.
"You lie down in peace, relax, and don't bother anymore."
Xin Lin said and began to bathe Xiao Fan, his movements were extremely gentle.
After scrubbing Xiao Fan's upper body, Xin Lin went down to the bath silently, and the hot spring suddenly wet the light veil she was wearing, clinging to her body, and her graceful figure was completely presented.
Xin Lin took off the scarf covering Xiao Fan's mouth, the white light flashed, and there was a delicate knife in his hand, and the edge of the blade was incomparably sharp. Leaning down, the knife was gently attached to Xiao Fan's cheek, shaving him little by little.
Xiao Fan's eyes were still closed, but his eyelashes and eyelids trembled slightly.
"Biedong, the knife is very sharp......"
Xin Lin couldn't help but warn, and her slender hands trembled a little.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Fan's mouth.
With the skills of the Holy Maiden of the Seven Wonderful Palace, no matter how sharp the knife is in her hand, it is also extremely dexterous, not to mention shaving him, even if he shaves three thousand troubles, it is only a matter of the blink of an eye.
It seems that the girl's heart is the same as his, and she is not as calm and safe as she looks.
"Well, okay, it's pretty again."
After a cup of tea, looking at Xiao Fan's clean cheeks and chin, Xin Lin smiled and said in a low voice, tilting her head to admire it, but she didn't know whether she was appreciating her craftsmanship or Xiao Fan's face.
Xiao Fan's arm moved, and he suddenly held Xin Lin's delicate soft twing.
It's warm and boneless.
After living together for three years, this was the first time Xiao Fan held Xin Lin's little hand, so hard, his eyes also opened, and he looked at her fixedly.
Xin Lin's pretty cheeks, two gorgeous red glows suddenly floated, so coquettish, her long eyelashes couldn't help trembling, and she didn't dare to look at Xiao Fan's eyes.
"...... of Gar"
Xin Lin should not, her white teeth gently bit her lower lip, and her gentle eyes swept quickly across his handsome face, like a frightened rabbit, and suddenly drifted away.
The atmosphere of the bathroom suddenly became strange.
After a moment, Xiao Fan slowly let go of his hand, took a deep breath, and his gaze became clear and deep again.
Right now, the time is really not right.
He must be in the most perfect state for the next crucial deduction.
Xin Lin also quickly calmed down, the red glow on her pretty face gradually receded, picked up the light veil, and slowly wiped Xiao Fan's sturdy body, her movements were still gentle and delicate, but her hands had become extremely stable.
Coming out of the bathroom, Xiao Fan seemed to have regained his vitality, changed into dry cotton and linen clothes and pants, sat cross-legged on the clean and tidy wooden couch, his eyes were slightly closed, and he began to breathe in and meditate.
Xin Lin also returned to her wooden couch, sat cross-legged, her hands on her lower abdomen, one hand horizontally, and the other hand erected, both pinching the magic tricks, quietly exhaling luck.
The extremely thin and thin soft sword was placed three inches away from his hand, and the cold light was dazzling.
Hei Lin was lying on Xiao Fan's stomach, his hair was fluffy, and he was still lazy, occasionally adding his own claws.
In the secret room, everything is silent.
