Chapter 6: The Illiterate Local Peasant
I have picked some vegetables for you. Just now, there was a rabbit in the trap. I will help you kill it and prepare it shortly. There are also some eggs from our own chickens in the kitchen. You can cook for yourselves over the next couple of days.
The young man picked up the letter, glanced at it, and then tossed it aside
Although the two young girls returned to their world and the boy resumed his original life, the impact of their experiences still lingered, especially for the boy, as he had at least learned to cultivate his energy and had witnessed the fierce battle between the two girls
Wife, where are you all
He saw the gold note on the table and the letter left behind, but...
Well, in any case, teaching him to cultivate his energy can be considered a way for us to repay our kindness. Given his aptitude, even if he cannot reach the seventh or eighth meridian, achieving the fourth or fifth meridian is still possible. In this small Seven Star Kingdom, he would already be considered a master, and his life should be worry-free
Mutual understanding! Murong Qing smiled and said, then departed. The two were not traveling companions, so naturally, they would not walk together. They returned to their respective lives, back to their original worlds, as if they had never appeared here at all.
I am going to the county town to deliver the herbs, they are waiting for them, and I will return by tomorrow evening at the earliest. When I come back, I will also buy you some delicious food.
It seems that he is only known by his surname, Bu
They knew that they and the young man belonged to two different worlds, and it was essentially impossible for them to have any further intersection. Watching the young man leave with great joy, they felt a faint sense of parting melancholy in their hearts, but it quickly faded away
By the way, what is his name
Indeed," Murong Qing nodded and said
After the boy could not find the two girls, he did not continue searching. Although he did not understand anything yet, he still had a sense of something, knowing that something might have happened.
"Anyway, I know he lives here. If I have time to pass by nearby in the future, I will come to see him," Murong Qing said nonchalantly.
However, it is limited to what can currently be used; many techniques require true energy to activate the formation, which he is unable to utilize. Nevertheless, the battle between the two young girls still involves some ordinary techniques, which are the ones he can learn to use at present
If those two girls from hetushu.com were to find out about this, they would probably be infuriated. They were originally worried that the gold tickets would cause trouble for the young man, and they even instructed him in their letter that this was for emergencies only and not to be spent recklessly. Yet, he truly ended up using it for an "emergency".
How to write? After thinking for a while, Ling Aoxue did not know how to begin.
"Should we leave our names?" Ling Aoxue asked again. Leaving their names might cause them some trouble, and it could also lead the young man to entertain certain thoughts, prompting him to do things he should not do
When he later realized what cash vouchers were, the regret he felt was immense; he had carelessly squandered a substantial fortune. Had he known earlier, at the very least, he would have taken the time to wipe himself more thoroughly several times before parting with it
At the same time, even if the young man is more talented than them, he is starting about ten years late, and this is considering the same age; the two of them are quite a few years older.
"But I am a bad woman, I am a femme fatale, not suited for good people," Murong Qing said with a smile
After healing their wounds for a day, they are about to leave
... ...
At that moment, the voice of the young man came through, but the content left the two young girls speechless
The young man went to find two young girls, but he did not know how to read and was unaware of what was written in the letter. Naturally, he also did not know that the two young girls had already left, nor did he know their names.
Yet he was unaware of this ability of his; he felt that he could not utilize it, that it was something he could not learn
"Indeed, then we shall part ways here. Until next time, we remain adversaries. Do not think that our relationship has improved," Ling Aoxue said, leaving a letter and some gold notes before departing.
"What, are you still waiting for your little husband to come back?" Murong Qing said with a playful smile
What should we do, are we just leaving like this?" Ling Aoxue said with a slight frown, feeling that leaving without saying goodbye seemed a bit inappropriate, but if they did not leave this way, they would find it somewhat difficult to face the young man.
Wife, I am back
If there is free time, it is actually very unlikely. If there is free time, the probability is almost zero
"Are we doing it ourselves? What about you?" Ling Aoxue inquired
"Stay," Murong Qing said, "As long as he comes to find me, I will receive him. He saved our lives, so what is there to fear?"
"Forget it, let's leave him a message at https://m.hetushu.com, and give him some silver coins," Ling Aoxue said, then took out the Four Treasures of the Study from her storage bracelet, contemplating how to write.
"Whose little husband is this!" Ling Aoxue's face turned slightly red, "I never agreed to that. At that time, I didn't say a word; it was you who agreed. It belongs to you, so you must treat him well in the future. He is a good person."
It may be due to his solid foundation that everything comes naturally; he is already nearly fifteen years old, while we learned to cultivate our energy at the age of five. Murong Qing said nonchalantly, noting that there is still a significant difference in this regard, as they were not as mature as fifteen-year-olds at that time.
The young man returned joyfully on the evening of the second day, carrying a basket of chicken, duck, fish, and meat, ready to feast with his two wives. However, when he returned, the place was already empty.
"Very well, let him have the opportunity to come find us..." Ling Aoxue said, leaving her name without specifying the location to find them. She believed that with the reputation of the two of them, it would be impossible for him not to find them
The two young girls were taken aback; they were very fond of the boy's smile and even more enamored with his simplicity, yet they were uncertain if they would have the opportunity to see him again in the future
The grace of salvation, if the young man insists on keeping them with the books, they would have no choice but to comply. However, they are aware that they cannot stay, as it would disrupt the young man's peaceful life. At the same time, they cannot adapt to such a life, as they have many other matters to attend to
"Let us just say we are leaving, and if fate allows, we shall meet again in the future," Murong Qing said with a frown. The phrase 'if fate allows' is indeed a rather vague expression.
What is written on this?
The information on those spirit tablets can be obtained, but it seems they did not ask the young man's name, just as the young man did not inquire about their names either
What is the use of watching a great battle? This is what makes the youth extraordinary; he can remember the techniques others have demonstrated and learn them instantly, including martial arts. Initially, he lacked internal energy and could not utilize them, but now he can.
A few days later, the young man confirmed that the two girls had already left and would not be returning. He then gave up the search and returned to his original life. As for the letter and the banknote, he accidentally used them as scrap paper, completely severing the lead.
What is this? The young man does not recognize these gold notes at all; he has never encountered such high-value currency. All he has seen are copper coins and small silver pieces. The most important point is that he—
