I Don’T Want To Be This Master For A Day Anymore. Chapter 28
byDon’t move
On the second day, Qiu Yin’an took Wan Qiongju back to Qingxuan Peak. After Bai Chengying explained the matters related to the disciples of Wanyunge, he set off with Qiu Yin’an.
The three of them used Yao Ye’s Yunling to drive for seven days to a small town at the foot of the White Cliff in Hanling Mountains. This small town was called Siqiao Town. It was the last place where they could see people before they arrived at the White Cliffs in Hanling Mountains.
The three of them found an inn to stay. The inn was small and a bit shabby. There was only an old shopkeeper in the inn. When the three of them came in, he walked up to them with a cane.
“How many of you are staying in the hotel?”
Qiu Yin’an took two steps forward and handed over the money. “I’d like to ask the shopkeeper to open three rooms. I’ll prepare some food and tea and send them up. An hour later, I’ll boil three buckets of bath water.”
“Okay.” The old shopkeeper took the money, leaned on a cane, and took three steps forward for a long time under the gaze of the three people.
Qiu Yin’an and Wan Qiongju looked at each other, and Wan Qiongju said: “Master, do you think there should be other people in this old man’s shop? Otherwise, how can this inn continue to operate?”
Qiu Yin’an: “There should be.”
Although the old shopkeeper’s legs and feet were weak, his ears were not bent at all. When he heard the master and apprentice talking about him, he laughed sheepishly, then turned around and said to them after taking a sip of tea: “I am old and do everything slowly. Please bear with me, the guests.”
Bai Chengying: “Yin’an, let’s find another inn.”
The old shopkeeper said: “No, there are few people here, and I am the only inn in the whole Siqiao Town.”
Qiu Yinan held his forehead and sighed, “Forget it, let’s do it ourselves.”
“How embarrassing.” The old shopkeeper raised his hand and pointed behind him, “The kitchen is over there.”
Wan Qiongju: “Master, you go and have a rest. Lin Yuxian and I will come.”
Bai Chengying’s eyes instantly widened: “Who wants to come with you?”
Wan Qiongju said with a smile: “Does Mr. Lin Yuxian have other plans, or is he preparing to go without food?”
Bai Chengying: “Don’t be so weird over there.”
“Stop arguing, we won’t stop all the way.” Qiu Yin’an regretted agreeing to take Bai Chengying with him. He scratched his hair irritably, “Brother Chengying, if you are tired, go and have a rest. Xiaowan and I will come.”
“Yin’an, I don’t want to be lazy, I just-”
The more Bai Chengying said, the deeper Qiu Yin’an’s eyebrows frowned.
Bai Chengying sighed, “Hey, forget it, I’ll listen to you.”
The old shopkeeper said: “By the way, what do the guests want to eat?”
Qiu Yin’an: “Do whatever you have?”
The old shopkeeper laughed twice: “I just happened to have finished eating everything.”
Qiu Yin’an’s face suddenly fell, “Does this inn really belong to you?”
Old shopkeeper: “Without a doubt.”
He continued: “There are some things growing in the fields behind the inn. You can just pick whatever you think is edible. Just eat it and don’t worry about me.”
Wan Qiongju was a little confused and asked: “Old man, if there are no guests staying at the hotel, how do you live alone?”
Old shopkeeper: “It depends on fate.”
The few people had no choice but to go to the fields and pick some corn. Wan Qiongju cooked it into porridge and gave a bowl to the old shopkeeper.
The old shopkeeper got along well with Wan Qiongju and asked him about his family for a long time. Wan Qiongju was annoyed by his questions and hurriedly drank a few mouthfuls of porridge before running to boil water for bathing.
Wan Qiongju left, and the old shopkeeper started chatting with Qiu Yin’an again: “Little Taoist Priest, why are you in our Siqiao Town? Are you also going to Hanling Baiya?”
Wan Qiongju: “Yes, the three of us are going to the White Cliff of Hanling Mountains to find the Buddha’s Hand.”
Bai Chengying: “Yin’an, why are you talking so much to an irrelevant person?”
Qiu Yin’an: “This Siqiao Town is located in a remote area. It’s easy to imagine the purpose of settling here. There is nothing to hide.”
Bai Chengying lowered his head to drink the porridge and stopped talking.
The old shopkeeper: “You can’t go to Hanling White Cliff. I have lived here for seventy or eighty years. I have met several people who said they wanted to go there, but they almost never returned. Besides, the flower is only in legends and no one has actually seen it.”
Qiu Yin’an: “That flower is not just a legend, it is real.”
The old shopkeeper said: “Young man, I see that you are kind-hearted, and I would like to give you a few words of advice. Practicing steadily is the way to go. If you want to reach the sky in one step and take shortcuts, you will have to pay the price.”
Qiu Yin’an didn’t take it seriously and said, “Thank you for your concern, uncle, but I have a reason to go.”
Seeing that he could not be persuaded, the old shopkeeper stopped talking and ate his porridge.
In the evening, Qiu Yin’an was taking a bath comfortably when Wan Qiongju suddenly opened the door and barged in, “Master, there is a big mouse in my house. It plopped from the beam and fell into my bathtub. It scared me to death.”
Qiu Yin’an said dubiously: “There’s nothing to eat here, but there are still big rats?”
“Yes, it’s very big.” Wan Qiongju gestured and said, “This civet cat is even bigger.”
Wan Qiongju was wet all over, her black hair was disheveled and still dripping with water. She stood barefoot in front of Qiu Yin’an, her chest rising and falling, gasping for air, and she looked really frightened.
Wan Qiongju came forward, holding the edge of the bathtub with both hands, and begged: “Master, I’m so scared and I’m so cold. Can I go into your bathtub for a while?”
Probably because he came out in a hurry, Wan Qiongju only wore a long gown with slits on both sides. When he was walking towards the bathtub, Qiu Yin’an took a few peeks at the two slender white legs, one behind the other, which made him excited.
Qiu Yin’an knew what would happen to her if Wan Qiongju came in to take a bath together. She would definitely be greedy and have to endure it, and in the end she would be so thirsty that it hurts.
But how many people in the world can refuse such an opportunity to be so close to the one they love, so even though Qiu Yin’an knew that she would be uncomfortable for a while, she still agreed to Wan Qiongju’s request.
“It’s cold now, be careful not to catch the cold.” Qiu Yin’an moved to the side, leaving a seat for him.
Wan Qiongju took off his robe and sat in. He sighed, “Wow, it’s so warm.”
Qiu Yin’an was blushing and sitting opposite Wan Qiongju with her heart beating. The mist of water made the young man’s face seem real and illusory, making him unable to move his eyes away.
“Master, look at how cold my hands are.” Wan Qiongju came over and held Qiu Yin’an’s hand.
Qiu Yin’an always thought that he had strong determination and could remain calm no matter what temptation he faced, but at this moment, he seemed to be unable to pretend to be calm and calm on the surface. Almost out of nature, he immediately took Wan Qiongju’s hand back and even used the power of the water to pull her forward. Qiu Yin’an felt that his behavior was too impulsive, and he was afraid that Wan Qiongju would be frightened by him.
But Wan Qiongju didn’t pay much attention to the gesture of being held back. He just held hands with Qiu Yin’an and leaned against the wall of the barrel next to Qiu Yin’an with a calm expression.
Not bad, not bad.
Qiu Yin’an was relieved. After calming down, Qiu Yin’an asked, “Is it still cold?”
“It’s not cold.” Wan Qiongju let go of Qiu Yin’an’s hand and poured water on his neck, “Master, that old shopkeeper is so strange.”
Qiu Yin’an: “What’s wrong?”
Wan Qiongju: “He asked me my birth date and insisted on telling my fortune. He also asked me a lot of weird questions.”
Qiu Yin’an: “I’m probably too bored. I finally have someone here, so I just want to chat with them. Why, is it making you uneasy?”
Wan Qiongju: “A little bit.”
Qiu Yin’an: “You are just too sensitive.”
Wan Qiongju tilted his head and said: “Master is the only good person in the world. Anyone else approaching me has evil intentions.”
Qiu Yin’an: “What if my teacher also harbors evil intentions towards you one day?”
Wan Qiongju raised his eyebrows and said, “Then I will follow your plan.”
“You are so sweet.” Qiu Yin’an poured a handful of water on Wan Qiongju’s face.
Wan Qiongju came over and threw a handful at Qiu Yin’an. Qiu Yin’an choked on her water and clamped Wan Qiongju’s wrist with both hands.
The two of them were suddenly so close that Qiu Yin’an could hear Wan Qiongju’s breathing clearly and see himself clearly in his eyes. Qiu Yin’an’s heart was in chaos again. He felt that his reason could no longer keep up with him. At this moment, he was only accompanied by the most primitive male instinct.
Qiu Yin’an realized that she really longed for Wan Qiongju, so much that she felt so much desire that it hurt.
Qiu Yin’an: “Xiao Wan, to you, am I someone you can rely on forever?”
Wan Qiongju: “I don’t want to live under the protection of Master forever. Master is very good to me. Everything I have is given by Master. I said that I will work hard to become Master’s most reliable helper in order to repay Master’s kindness.”
Qiu Yin’an only heard the word “don’t want to”.
Qiu Yin’an let go of Wan Qiongju’s wrist. It seemed that Wan Qiongju had no intention of falling in love. “Very good, very ambitious. I am very happy to be my teacher.”
Wan Qiongju: “Master, what’s wrong with you? You don’t seem happy.”
Qiu Yin calmed down, suppressed the tumbling desire in his heart, and answered in the way a less rigid master should: “I, I choked on the water you stirred up just now, can I be happy?”
Qiu Yin’an pressed Wan Qiongju’s head and poured out a few handfuls of water. Then, taking advantage of the fight, he pinched Wan Qiongju’s waist twice before getting up and going out.
Wan Qiongju wiped his face and said, “Master, thank you.”
Qiu Yin’an turned his back and wiped the water with a dry towel, “You burned this water, why are you thanking me?”
Wan Qiongju: “Thank you Master for not disliking me and letting me come in and take a bath together.”
Qiu Yin’an threw the dry towel into Wan Qiongju’s face, “Who said I don’t dislike it? I’m out now.”
Qiu Yin’an got up and got into bed. In fact, he didn’t dislike Wan Qiongju. On the contrary, he wished he could hang out with him for a while longer. But just now, Qiu Xiaoan was a little dishonest. After being suppressed for a long time, Qiu Xiaoan raised a flag to protest.
Qiu Yin’an got into the quilt and said, “After washing, please pour the water quickly. I want to sleep.”
Wan Qiongju took the dry towel Qiu Yin’an used and wiped it on his body twice, then ran over and handed the dry towel to Qiu Yin’an: “Master, I can’t reach the back, please help me.”
Qiu Yin’an urgently needed to be alone for a while. He pushed Wan Qiongju and turned her around. Then he lifted the quilt and quickly wiped Wan Qiongju’s back a few times. “Okay, pour the water quickly and get out.”
Qiu Yin’an put a dry towel on Wan Qiongju’s shoulders and got into the bed. The quilt was not thick, so he didn’t dare to lie down, so he turned sideways and bent his legs, lying down with his back to Wan Qiongju.
But Wan Qiongju didn’t seem to have any intention of leaving. He stood beside the bed and said, “Master, the big rat is still in my room. I’d better sleep with you tonight.”
Qiu Yin’an said perfunctorily: “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, let your eagle in and let it help you catch mice. Go back, be good.”
“But I don’t know how to keep myself from being afraid.” Wan Qiongju came to pull Qiu Yin’an’s quilt while he was talking.
Qiu Yin’an held on to the quilt tightly and said, “You are such an adult. You can’t cling to Master all the time. Go quickly and be strong alone.”
Wan Qiongju blinked and looked at him, “But I’m not used to sleeping alone. Is Master really not going to keep me?”
On normal days, Qiu Yin’an would have wished that Wan Qiongju could stay and sleep with him on the same bed for the rest of his life. But today, his desire was so strong that even the Pure Heart Curse could not suppress it. He had to be alone for a while to vent his passion.
Qiu Yin’an was anxious, and Qiu Xiaoan was even more anxious. He compromised and said, “Then you go pour the water first, take it out in a bucket and pour it slowly. Don’t walk back and forth. I’ll be cold with the door open.”
Wan Qiongju’s pupils suddenly widened. He smiled and asked, “Master, do you agree that I sleep here tonight?”
Qiu Yin’an felt that there was not enough time. He put his chin on the quilt and ordered: “Boil some more hot water. I want to drink it.”
Wan Qiongju happily put on her robe and said, “I obey.”
Wan Qiongju left, and Qiu Yin’an felt comfortable. He didn’t expect that the temptation this young man brought to him could be so great, so urgent, and so urgent.
Qiu Yin’an was indeed happy, but it was not enough. He felt that his heart was still empty. He needed the person he loved to live in and fill his heart.
Qiu Yin’an clutched the dirty handkerchief in his hand. He didn’t know how long his love could be hidden. His love and desire for Wan Qiongju were already overflowing. During the trip to Hanling and White Cliffs, he must make Wan Qiongju fall in love with him. This was Qiu Yin’an’s order to himself.
