Disciple, Don’t Cause Trouble, Master Won’t Leave the Mountain!-Chapter 144: Awakening
Chapter 144: Awakening
This old woman…
Qin Xiaoxi was shocked.
Wasn’t this the old woman she met when she entered the mountain half a month ago?
“Grandma, it’s you… why are you here? Don’t you live at the foot of Luoying Mountain?”
Qin Xiaoxi looked at the old woman in front of her with a surprised expression.
“Of course, this place is also the foot of the mountain.” The old woman looked at her meaningfully and then sat down next to Qin Xiaoxi with her legs crossed.
Qin Xiaoxi didn’t ask any more questions.
She just closed her eyes along with the old woman.
“This spiritual spring… the pure power contained in it is the best source of purification for spiritual power. Close your eyes, slow down your breathing and thoughts, and you will be able to feel it well.”
Qin Xiaoxi did as she was told.
But soon, a strange feeling filled Qin Xiaoxi’s entire body.
It was a little cold, but it also made her feel a little more relaxed.
Qin Xiaoxi and the old woman sat quietly by the spring for a long time.
“So, did you learn what you came to the Sakura sect to learn, little girl?” The old woman looked at Qin Xiaoxi kindly.
“I have comprehended some aspects, but I still think it’s not enough.”
The old woman didn’t answer but smiled and nodded.
“I didn’t notice your sword that day.”
At this moment, the old woman turned her eyes to the Yue Maiden Sword on the ground.
“Haha, grandma, do you want to see it?” Qin Xiaoxi took out her sword. But the old woman just smiled and shook her head, indicating Qin Xiaoxi to put the sword back.
“This sword was able to meet a young woman like you… that is very good… very good…”
The old woman nodded.
“What do you mean, grandma?”
“You must continue to pursue what you desire.”
“What?”
The old woman did not say anything more. She crossed her legs, her hands hanging down naturally, and closed her eyes…
“Xiaoxi! Xiaoxi!”
“Xiaoxi…”
In a trance, a gentle male voice called out to her.
Qin Xiaoxi slowly opened her eyes.
It turned out that she was still in the cabin.
She was still drifting on the sea by the northern region.
Qin Xiaoxi was lying on a bed made of hay, covered in a heavy fur coat.
At this moment, Jiang Yun was beside her.
“You’re finally awake.”
Qin Xiaoxi looked at him. At some point, Jiang Yun’s eye bags became heavy.
“Did we get rid of those sea demons?” Qin Xiaoxi rubbed her tired eyes and asked hurriedly.
“That was two days ago.” Jiang Yun smiled and continued to ask, “How do you feel? Are you feeling better?”
Qin Xiaoxi stared blankly at the ceiling, then slowly stood up. “My body is a little sore. I feel like I had a very long dream.”
Seeing this, Jiang Yun assumed that Qin Xiaoxi was probably fine. However, Jiang Yun was surprised, he didn’t expect Qin Xiaoxi to recover so quickly.
“You slept for so long, like a pig,” Jiang Yun teased, then he stood up.
“You’re the pig.” Qin Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at Jiang Yun, then she pulled her hands out from underneath the heavy fur coat and said, “Okay, I’m going to wash up. You can go out.”
Jiang Yun leaned against the door frame and looked at Qin Xiaoxi, who was about to get up, with interest.
“Why are you standing there and looking at me like that…” Qin Xiaoxi looked at him in confusion, but the next second, she was terrified. “Wait… I’ve been asleep for so long. Did you do something to me?”
“What?”Jiang Yun asked her curiously. “What do you mean?”
Qin Xiaoxi looked at her clothes. It seemed like nothing had happened.
“Nothing.”Qin Xiaoxi shook her head. Just as she was about to get up, a piercing cold forced her back into bed. “Why is it so cold?”
“Because we’re almost there. It’s even colder outside. Hurry up and put on your coat and pants.” Jiang Yun looked at the pair of pants on the table.
Qin Xiaoxi looked at them with disdain.
“They’re too ugly. The pants are so big. I have to tie it with a belt.”
“If you don’t wear it, then you will freeze into a popsicle.” Jiang Yun smiled and then opened the cabin door.
It would have been better if he didn’t open the door. As soon as he opened it, Qin Xiaoxi could feel the deep chill even underneath the coat.
It was so cold.
Qin Xiaoxi shivered.
“Quickly get dressed. I’ll wait for you outside.” Seeing Qin Xiaoxi like this, Jiang Yun immediately closed the door.
Under the coat, Qin Xiaoxi held her forehead with one hand and shook her head.
“You’ll have to get up sooner or later… why not now?”
After saying this, Qin Xiaoxi quickly got up and put her coat on. She casually put on the extremely heavy pants.
Although she changed her clothes, Qin Xiaoxi could still feel a trace of chilliness.
Qin Xiaoxi expected that the northern region would be dangerous, but she didn’t expect how intense the snow and ice in the northern region would be.
After a simple wash, Qin Xiaoxi walked out of the cabin and didn’t forget to close the door for him.
When Qin Xiaoxi looked at the surrounding scenery, she saw that it was no longer the endless dark blue sea. On the surface of the water, she could see white reefs from time to time. Powder-like snow was falling from the sky.
“Ugh…” Qin Xiaoxi crossed her arms and bent her body slightly.
“Finally.” Jiang Yun looked around and sighed.
For some reason, the visibility on the surface of the sea was always very low. Even in broad daylight, everything was still covered by white fog.
“How long has it been since we went out to sea?” Qin Xiaoxi endured the cold and came to Jiang Yun’s side.
“Nine days,” Jiang Yun answered quietly. At this point, he noticed Qin Xiaoxi walking to his side. Then, he took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Qin Xiaoxi.
“What is this?”
“Red gold ointment. Once we arrive in the northern region, I think the temperature will continue to drop. With this, it can help you maintain your body temperature.”
Qin Xiaoxi nodded when she heard this and took the small cloth bag that Jiang Yun handed to her.
