We said we would experience life, fairy, how did you become real?

Sitting on the stone bench, Xiao Mo looked at the chicken soup on the table and couldn't help but sigh.

In Xiao Mo's view, Ru Xue's constant presence by his side was of no use.

If she had a master to guide her, it would greatly benefit her spiritual practice.

Moreover, in the future, the transformation of snow into a dragon will require traveling along rivers and into the sea.

When traveling by river or to the sea, someone needs to protect you.

As one of the top ten sects in the world, Tianxuan Sect is definitely capable of protecting Ruxue.

Did I lock her up?

Xiao Mo lowered his head and took the pendant out of his collar.

Looking at the crystal-clear, silvery-white snake scales on his neck, Xiao Mo couldn't help but clench his fist.

Standing up, Xiao Mo walked into Bai Ruxue's room.

Bai Ruxue's room was not decorated at all; it only contained a bed, a stool, and a dressing table.

This dressing table was given to Ruxue by Aunt Chen a year ago when she no longer wanted it.

The house was simple, but it was very clean.

Walking to the dressing table, Xiao Mo saw a small stack of Xuan paper that had been sewn together with needle and thread.

Upon opening it, I found it covered with densely packed, delicate handwriting.

April 1st.

Two catties of duck meat, seventy coins.

Three catties of pork, sixty coins.

Two pounds of tofu, eight coins.

chili

I spent a total of two qian of silver on groceries today.

Hmph, I'm never going to the market in Huangcun again; the meat prices are getting higher and higher lately.

I'll go up the mountain tomorrow and catch a pheasant to nourish Xiao Mo's body, which will also save me some money.

However, Xiao Mo is taking the provincial examination soon, so I need to buy him some more mutton. I've heard that mutton is good for his health.

April 2nd.

No need to buy groceries today; they can be stored in the cellar for two more days.

I gathered some medicinal herbs on the mountain and caught two chickens. I'll sell one and make soup with the other for Xiao Mo, hehehe.

Aunt Huang from Huangcun kept trying to bargain with me, it was so annoying! I wasn't going to sell it that cheap!

April 3rd.

Silkworm, hurry up and spin your silk! After you finish spinning your silk, I can weave cloth. Once I've woven the cloth, I can sell it for money and make clothes for Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo is leaving for the prefectural capital at the end of the month, and I want to change him into a nice blue robe.

Other people's scholars get new clothes, so my Xiao Mo has to have some too!

April 4th.

A bunch of chives, one coin.

Rapeseed, two coins.

eggplant】

On April 15th, I made a new outfit for Xiao Mo. I'll give it to him to wear on the day he sets off; I'm sure he'll like it.

April 24th.

Xiao Mo put on the clothes I made.

Hmm, my skills are truly superb; Xiao Mo looks great in it.

But Xiao Mo said he didn't need clothes; it would be better to make me a dress than a blue robe for him.

Honestly, I don't need new clothes. This linen outfit I'm wearing is enough.

On the first day of May, Xiao Mo and I arrived in town. Is this the capital of the human race? It's so lively! Xiao Mo accompanied me shopping and bought me candied hawthorns.

Candied hawthorn berries are delicious.

Today, Xiao Mo saw a steamed bun stall and said he remembered an old friend. Could it be a woman?

And what about brothels? What about matters between men and women? Xiao Mo never said.

But it's alright, Xiao Mo and I will just do what men and women do together then.

On the seventh day of the fifth lunar month, Xiao Mo entered the examination hall. Without Xiao Mo, it's so boring.

[May 8th, without Xiao Mo, so boring, how come there's still one day left?]

[May 9th, time to go home! Time to go home!]

On May 16th, Xiao Mo passed the imperial examination and became a scholar. Everyone praised Xiao Mo. No one expected that Xiao Mo was really a reincarnation of the God of Literature, although I didn't know what the God of Literature was.

The county magistrate said he wanted to marry his daughter to Xiao Mo, which made me very unhappy. I didn't want to leave Xiao Mo, and I didn't want Xiao Mo to be with other girls. I don't know why I had such thoughts.

But Xiao Mo said he wouldn't marry the magistrate's daughter and would go to the city tomorrow to refuse the magistrate, which made me very happy.

However, I will work hard and strive to be better than all the women in the world.

That way, Xiao Mo won't be able to bear to part with me and won't marry other women.

Closing Bai Ruxue's diary, which resembled a bill, Xiao Mo looked at the pillow on the bed.

"Xiao Mo, you can scold me, you can hit me, but you can't kick me out."

If one day you really can't stand it anymore, put this snake scale under my pillow.

The next day I'll pretend I knew nothing and sneak away.

The words Ru Xue had spoken echoed in Xiao Mo's mind.

"You big stinky egg! You big bad egg!"

I won't talk to you for two days!

"You stinky Xiao Mo!"

"You wicked Xiao Mo!"

On a rock halfway up Sheshan Mountain, Bai Ruxue picked up small stones one by one and threw them forward.

I never want to see you again!

"Forever. Seven days a month! Never mind. Three days it is."

"You big stinky egg!" Bai Ruxue stood up and shouted down the mountain, "I don't want to see you for the next three days! Go starve!"

After shouting, Bai Ruxue sat down again, hugging herself tightly with her arms, and burying her head between her thighs.

"Then it seems better if I come to see you again in three days?"

It had been less than ten breaths since the girl finished shouting.

Xiao Mo emerged from the darkness and walked step by step toward Bai Ruxue.

Hearing Xiao Mo's voice, Bai Ruxue's delicate body trembled slightly, and she quickly stood up, about to run into the woods.

"Stop running." Xiao Mo grabbed Bai Ruxue's delicate wrist in time. "If you run again, I really won't be able to find you."

"I don't want you to find me." Bai Ruxue pouted and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes haphazardly.

"But without you, who will cook for me?" Xiao Mo smiled. "You wouldn't want to watch me go hungry, would you?"

"Hmph," Bai Ruxue snorted, lowered her head, and muttered, "I'll starve you, you big stinky egg."

Xiao Mo smiled, grasped Bai Ruxue's fair and delicate shoulders, turned her to face him, and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingers: "Don't be angry, I really didn't kick you out."

"really?"

"Really," Xiao Mo nodded. "But Ru Xue, do you really not want to go to the Heavenly Profound Sect?"

Bai Ruxue raised her misty eyes: "If I go, will you come with me?"

Xiao Mo shook his head: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. I'm just a scholar and I don't have any talent for cultivation."

"Then I won't go!" Bai Ruxue sniffed.

"Ru Xue, entering the Tianxuan Sect to cultivate is something countless people dream of. Becoming an immortal is very difficult, but Ru Xue, you have such an opportunity."

"But what about Xiao Mo?"

Her snow-white, peach-blossom eyes looked at Xiao Mo.

"What's the point of becoming an immortal if I don't have you?"

"The path to immortality without you is not the path I choose to walk."

Chapter 41 The young master was her fortune, and also her destiny.

Two days later.

Just as Bai Ruxue had said, the Taoist priest came to their door again.

Xiao Mo looked at the Taoist priest; the man himself exuded an air of otherworldly refinement simply by standing there.

Even if the other person is incredibly beautiful, you still can't bring yourself to have any impure thoughts about her.

It's as if you subconsciously feel that there's an insurmountable gap between you and the other person.

Upon seeing the Taoist priest, Bai Ruxue quickly hid behind Xiao Mo.

She seemed worried that the Taoist priest would abduct her.

"This humble Taoist priest, Fuchen, greets you, young master." Fuchen bowed.

"I am Xiao Mo, and I greet the fairy." Xiao Mo bowed in return.

"I didn't know you were this young lady's friend, sir," Fuchen asked.

“Friend,” Xiao Mo replied.

Fuchen nodded and looked at Bai Ruxue, who was hiding behind Xiao Mo: "I wonder what your decision is, Miss?"

Bai Ruxue timidly peeked out from behind Xiao Mo, her small hands tightly gripping the hem of his clothes: "I...I don't want to cultivate immortality! I don't want to go with you!"

Fuchen looked at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo was also somewhat helpless: "I tried to persuade Ru Xue yesterday, but she just wouldn't leave."

Fuchen looked calmly at Bai Ruxue and nodded: "I understand. It seems our fate has not yet arrived."

Fuchen took out a jade pendant from his bosom: "If Miss Ruxue changes her mind, she can come to Tianxuan Sect to find me at any time with this jade pendant."

Bai Ruxue looked at Xiao Mo, and Xiao Mo nodded.

Bai Ruxue then cautiously reached out and accepted the jade pendant.

"Then I shall take my leave now, for I have caused you trouble."

"I'll escort the fairy out of the village."

Just as Fuchen was about to leave, Xiao Mo said.

Fuchen turned around, looked directly into Xiao Mo's eyes, and then nodded: "Then I'll trouble you, young master."

"please."

After leaving Bai Ruxue to watch the house, Xiao Mo took his whisk and headed out of the village.

"Does the young master wish to ask this humble Taoist priest something?"

After the two had walked away, Fuchen asked the man beside him.

When Xiao Mo was about to see her off, Fu Chen guessed that he had something he wanted to ask her, but it was something that Bai Ruxue shouldn't know.

"As expected, I cannot hide anything from you, Fairy. I do have some questions, and I wonder if you could answer them for me."

"Please speak frankly, young master."
