Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

Chapter 958: The Wife Who Has No Spiritual Roots in the Cultivation Novels

He whispered in his heart, his voice so soft as if he was afraid to disturb her.

His fingertips slid down her hair, occasionally touching her earlobe, and he watched her eyelashes tremble slightly, like the wings of a frightened butterfly.

His heart tightened. Even though he knew the little girl would not wake up, he subconsciously withdrew his hand. However, when he lowered his eyes to look at her, he could not hide the smile in his eyes.

It turned out that although his future Taoist partner had no spiritual roots, he was still so sensitive to the outside world, which was extraordinary.

He just sat there, keeping his posture very low, for fear that any big movement would press down on the soft couch and disturb Miaomiao's sleep.

Seeing the quilt slipping slightly from her shoulders, he carefully pinched the corner of the quilt and pulled it up bit by bit. His movements were clumsy as if it was his first time doing this.

If a strand of hair fell on her cheek, he would gently brush it away with his fingertips as if in surprise. Occasionally, his fingertips would brush against her delicate skin, as if he was touching something fragile. He didn't dare to use any strength, but the fondness at the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious.

In the past, within the Qingyun Sect, he was a revered Nascent Soul master, the most aloof and aloof of all his fellow disciples. When the disciples saw him, they sometimes dared not even breathe, fearing to disturb his sword intent. When the elders discussed matters with him, they also showed him respect.

But at this moment, Shen Qingci was more like a child who had secretly hidden honey, guarding the "treasure" beside the bed, his heart full of tiny joys, even the cool aura around him was shattered by the moonlight.

The moonlight outside the window shines through the window lattice, casting mottled shadows on his blue shirt.

Shen Qingci lowered his head to look at Miaomiao's sleeping face. Her lips were slightly pursed, her nose was small, and even her breathing was in a shallow arc.

It's so cute no matter how you look at it.

But he also understood that this cuteness was different from the furry baby spirit beasts in the back mountain. The cuteness of the baby creatures was naive, and you would only see them occasionally and forget them as soon as you saw them.

But her cuteness made him unable to take his eyes off her from the moment he saw her for the first time. He was so ecstatic that he wanted to glue his eyes to her and even blinking felt like a waste.

After an unknown amount of time, the first rooster crowed in the distance. There was also some movement in the next room because of this sound. The slight creaking sound of the bed board brought Shen Qingci back to his senses.

When his spiritual consciousness swept over the outside world, he was surprised to find that it was almost dawn.

He looked at Miaomiao reluctantly for a while, and his fingertips couldn't help but gently stroke her hair again. Then he stood up, his steps as light as the wind, and walked through the wall back to his room.

But when he sat cross-legged on the bed again, Shen Qingci had no intention of practicing.

He spread out his palms, and his fingertips seemed to still retain the warmth and smoothness of his little Taoist partner's hair. Just thinking about it, his heart beat faster than when he was a child and killed a third-level monster.

He couldn't help but chuckle. It turned out that this was what ordinary people meant by "liking." Knowing that many things were against the rules, yet insisting on breaking them. Knowing that he should restrain himself, yet unable to help but get closer...

He recalled that when he was still a prince in the mortal world, his tutor had taught him that "a gentleman should be cautious when alone."

When he was in Qingyun Sect, his master advised him to "keep his heart pure".

Originally he was doing very well. For more than a hundred years, he had never made any mistakes and no one was worth his trouble.

But now, he made an exception. Not only did he sneak into the woman's bedroom, he even secretly described her appearance in front of the sleeping girl, looking like a real "gentleman on the beam".

But even though he knew that this was not a good thing to do, he did not feel regretful about it. Instead, he felt a little regretful. He had wasted his time last night and did not even dare to touch his fingertips.....

As for whether it was touched or not, he felt that he didn't.

But at this moment, Shen Qingci was still a confused green cucumber. He had no idea how two people should really get along at night, what he wanted to do, and his approach was based entirely on instinct...

The next morning, when Miaomiao pushed the door open, she saw Shen Qingci waiting for her in the lobby to have lunch together.

There was still a hint of sleepiness in her eyes. She subconsciously stretched and rubbed her eyes before greeting Shen Qingci with a smile.

"Brother Shen, good morning."

"Didn't you sleep well?"

Shen Qingci looked at Miaomiao's expression and his heart tightened. It seemed that the bodies of mortals all looked a little weak.

"Don't mention it. It might be because I broke up with that bastard Lin Yanci last night. It was too late and I had a nightmare.

I always feel like there is a pair of eyes staring at me in my dreams. Although it’s not scary, I can’t sleep well.

But I have to say that the pills you gave me are really useful. If it had been like this in the past, my body would have needed to rest for another day or two.

But now, even though I yawn, I feel very energetic."

Miaomiao herself couldn't explain how her body felt. She should have been very sleepy, but after taking a few steps, her energy and spirit returned. She even felt like she could climb rocks with her bare hands for a whole day without any problem.

She now understands more and more why people want to cultivate immortality. There are really so many benefits.

But Miaomiao had no idea that the pill she took was actually an extremely precious pill even in the world of immortal cultivation, and the medicinal effect of this Huitian Pill had long been integrated into her blood.

Improving energy and spirit is just a trivial function. This pill can even make her immune to all poisons and prolong her life. Even if she doesn't sleep for several days and nights, she can still stay energetic.

When Shen Qingci heard "there are two eyes in the dream", he coughed lightly unconsciously.

After all, he still had some dignity in his heart at this moment and had not completely sunk into despair.

“Ahem, maybe it’s because you went through a lot yesterday, and there were so many people in this inn, which affected the aura around you, so it disturbed your dream.

What are your plans for today?"

"I'd also like to ask Brother Shen first, how long can you escort us?

That's right, if Brother Shen has plenty of time, then we can walk slowly and buy some things in the towns along the way to take a rest.

If you're in a hurry to go back, we can also consider the time division to see if it's suitable for us to travel together, or ask Brother Shen to help find a few reliable Foundation Establishment cultivators along the way."

There were too many things going on last night. Miaomiao was so happy after getting Shen Yanzhao's help that she forgot to consider whether this matter was feasible.

But now, after a good sleep, my mind is much clearer, so naturally I have to speak frankly and ask clearly in advance, so as to avoid the situation where Shen Yanzhao leaves for something when I am halfway through the journey. If I encounter danger again, won’t I be left alone and helpless?

After all, in the original story, even though the original owner had his own four spiritual maids, he still died without a burial place.

Therefore, even though she left a while earlier, Miaomiao still didn't dare to be careless. After all, besides losing her life, she would also lose her points.

After hearing the little girl's question, Shen Qingci almost wanted to tell her as soon as possible, no matter how long it took.

But he closed his mouth when the words came to his lips, because he knew that such an answer would not only fail to reassure the girl, but might make her think that he was not sincere and prepare to ask other monks to protect him.

"Actually, it's just a coincidence. Before I met you, I was already preparing to go to the mortal world to cultivate my mind.

If you don’t mind, Miaomiao, half a year or a year will be fine.

There is no need to use other people, the talismans in my hand are enough."

In order to gain the little girl's trust, Shen Qingci picked out more than ten low-level talismans that had not been cleaned up before.

The reason why he didn't take out all of them was that he was afraid of scaring the little girl and making her doubt his identity.
