Chapter 260 Strange
Chapter 260 Strange
The life now is what Xu Feng has always pursued. Plain but not boring, easy and comfortable. Every day, apart from fiddling with flowers and plants, he drinks and paints, or plays Landlord, and occasionally goes out to the streets to enjoy the scenery.
However, Xu Feng always felt that this courtyard was a little small. He, Fu Yuehe and Miss Su Ying lived in the inner courtyard. Naturally, they were most comfortable in their own world. But now there was one more person, and he couldn't invite Miss Su Ying to live with the servants in the outer courtyard.
After an unintentional sigh, the two personal guards sent by Sikong Hongyu quickly took action. They directly bought the house next door at a high price, and after breaking through the adjacent courtyard wall, Xu Feng's two-story courtyard immediately doubled in size.
The room suddenly felt much more spacious, with much more room for activities, and Miss Suying also had her own independent yard.
Fu Yuehe still likes to paint, and she rarely paints landscapes or other people in the courtyard. It's basically Xu Feng. Because they are together day and night, she can accurately capture Xu Feng's various states: tranquility, seriousness, gentleness, playfulness, contemplation, etc. When she paints, she forgets herself and the world around her. She doesn't need to face real people, but just recalls the impressions in her mind.
It is a good thing to have your own hobbies. Xu Feng also likes to stay aside and watch Fu Yuehe paint quietly. The woman's painting skills have reached the advanced level. Once she gets into the state, there is a sense of charm as if she has entered the Tao. It is similar to those calligraphy masters who write with their pens like a swimming dragon in one go, which is pleasing to the eye.
At this time, Fu Yuehe was completely immersed in her own world. Unless Xu Feng deliberately made a loud noise to disturb her, some normal actions around her had no effect on her. This was somewhat similar to Dao Er.
Fu Yuehe was in great shape that day. After more than an hour, she created a painting that she was most satisfied with recently. Usually, after she finished a painting, she would wait for the ink and paint to dry, admire it for a while, and then carefully put it together with the previous painting.
However, after finishing her painting this time, she kept staring at it intently, feeling very satisfied, and was reluctant to put the painting away.
Xu Feng, who had been quietly admiring the beauty's focused and devoted expression, couldn't help but come forward out of curiosity when he saw this scene.
Well, it is indeed different from other paintings in the past, it is extremely vivid, and this painting captures the otherworldly and indifferent temperament of Xu Feng as a medicine body.
Although as a cultivator, he already had spiritual energy to nourish his body, but after Xu Feng returned to his medicinal body, there were some changes from before. This inexplicable change was clearly shown in this painting.
"Brother Xu, what do you think?" Fu Yuehe raised her head, her eyes full of expectation.
Xu Feng smiled and nodded.
"Your level has improved." Xu Feng smiled faintly, then lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead.
Fu Yuehe's pretty face turned slightly red with a sweet smile on her face, and she leaned naturally into his arms.
Xu Feng's heart moved, and he said to her, "Wait a moment." He let go of the beauty in his arms, and under Fu Yuehe's somewhat puzzled gaze, he picked up the pen, thought for a moment, and then wrote a few lines next to the portrait.
"In this world of three thousand, I love three things: the sun, the moon and you. The sun is for the morning, the moon is for the evening, and you are for me morning and evening!"
Xu Feng put down his brush and said to Fu Yuehe, who was mumbling to herself about the meaning of the words, with a faint smile: "The painting is me in your heart, and the words are you in my heart. They complement each other. How do you think?!"
After a moment, Fu Yuehe finally came back to her senses. She turned her head and looked at Xu Feng without saying a word. She just turned her back silently and put the painting away very carefully. She did not put it together with dozens of other paintings.
"This painting belongs to me alone." Fu Yuehe said in a low voice with a red face.
Xu Feng naturally didn't care about this. He just suddenly remembered it and expressed his feelings.
……
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, apart from a visit to Sikong Hongyu's retreat room to let his body breathe, Xu Feng stayed in the courtyard most of the time, occasionally taking the two girls out. Life was comfortable and relaxing.
For Fu Yuehe, due to her daily contact with the medicinal body, her complexion and mental state were beyond the range of ordinary people, and she was not much worse than some female cultivators of the first or second level of the human Yuan realm who were nourished by spiritual energy. Including Miss Su Ying and the maids in the courtyard, they were also more or less affected.
They could also sense that it was because of Xu Feng, but in the eyes of ordinary people, cultivators were the representatives of power and mystery, so they didn't find it too incredible.
As for the twin guards, due to Xu Feng's strong request, they usually only guard the outer courtyard and only provide close protection when he goes out. If they really follow him all the time, he and Fu Yuehe will have no private space at all. So under normal circumstances, the two are not allowed to enter the inner courtyard.
Before, the place was not big, and Fu Yuehe spent more time with Miss Su Ying, which made Xu Feng feel a little helpless. Now the situation has reversed. Fu Yuehe spends most of her time with Xu Feng, and Miss Su Ying is becoming more and more suitable for the position of housekeeper.
However, as time went by, three months later, the medicinal properties in the body gradually settled and stabilized, and Xu Feng himself also showed some changes.
As a human, his desires in all aspects were further reduced. He took spiritual materials as his main food, of course, he would only take a portion of them each time. He could only drink spiritual wine, and other delicacies became increasingly difficult to swallow.
He liked to sit alone in a quiet place for longer and longer periods of time, and from time to time his mind would wander, and he looked like a sculpture.
The first person to notice his change was naturally Fu Yuehe, who was closest to him. The way his elder brother Xu looked at him became more and more dull, and he would be in a daze at any time, and he had to be called several times before he suddenly came to his senses. And this situation happened more and more frequently.
She was worried and asked Xu Feng many times why he suddenly became like this. But Xu Feng didn't notice anything unusual about him and thought Fu Yuehe was being too suspicious.
Until one night, Xu Feng left his bedroom in a daze, and came to a big tree in the yard in a half-awake state. He leaned against the tree trunk, facing the bright moonlight in the sky, with an indescribable smile on his face.
Until dawn.
When he regained consciousness, he saw the concerned and inquiring eyes of the people in the courtyard. However, because of the obstruction of the twin guards, Fu Yuehe, Su Ying and others in the courtyard could only watch from a distance.
After all, the twin guards were cultivators of the sixth level of the Human Yuan Realm. They saw that Xu Feng had fallen into a special state, and they were afraid that disturbing him rashly would be disadvantageous to him, so they stopped several people and would not let them get close to him, let alone disturb him, waiting for Xu Feng to come out of that state by himself.
Xu Feng frowned, looked down at his clothes, and looked around. After a long while, he asked in a tone of disbelief, "Am I, sleepwalking?"
……
At the same time, in the central region of Huanyue Continent, on Cangxue Peak, there is the Xuanzi Tribulation Platform.
When the outer disciples of Cangxue Peak have reached the peak of the ninth level of the Human Yuan Realm and are ready to break through, they can go to the sect's Tribulation Platform to experience the first heavenly tribulation on their path of cultivation.
If one successfully advances to the Earthly Realm, he or she can become an inner sect disciple. If one fails, the Tribulation Platform can not only save the disciple's life, but also protect the disciple, preventing the heavenly tribulation from harming the foundation and interrupting the disciple's path of cultivation.
However, each outer disciple only has one chance to use the Tribulation Platform for free.
As a sect that can gain a foothold in the Central Region of Huanyue Continent with the most superior cultivation environment, Cangxue Peak's own strength is needless to say. It is common for outer disciples to survive the tribulation, but it is just a Xuanzi Tribulation Platform.
But the reason why it attracted so many people to watch this time was because the person who was undergoing the tribulation was not an ordinary cultivator, but a spiritual being incarnated!
