Chapter 73: Infiltration – Secrets Too Shameful to See

Anyone from Dongyuan knows about the Jade Jungle’s “One Leaf Boat.”

Since Yu Wei opened the entrance to the One Leaf Boat, many rogue cultivators have come, drawn by its reputation. They also heard that Yu Wei would pass on the Yu clan’s unique Cold Soul Bitter Lotus technique to his disciples, so long queues often formed at the entrance to the One Leaf Boat.

Over half a month passed, and another batch of new disciples arrived inside the Jade Jungle’s One Leaf Boat.

Some of the new disciples were familiar with the apprenticeship process, but were confused when they entered the One Leaf Boat. Seeing a senior disciple passing by, they politely inquired.

That disciple said, “Our One Leaf Boat is different from other places. The Boat Lord has already compiled the introductory cultivation methods into a book. Just learn according to it. When the five-year assessment period arrives, those who pass stay to learn more deeply, and those who fail leave. Those who pass twice will have senior brothers and sisters to guide you, and those who pass five times can receive the Boat Lord’s personal guidance.”

This rule was vastly different from other sects. In other sects, if someone was recognized as having good aptitude, they would be accepted as a personal disciple.

If you rely on self-study and never pass the assessment in the One Leaf Boat, it would be better to be a rogue cultivator.

Some people were impatient. Facing such a strict process, they had the idea of ​​retreating and left one after another.

Someone asked, “Is the Boat Lord in the One Leaf Boat for long? Can we see the Boat Lord often?” This person obviously came with an unusual purpose.

The disciple sneered and shook his head, “If you are determined, you can indeed meet him, but when you meet him, you will not have any messy thoughts!”

What messy thoughts? Everyone burst into laughter.

The little disciple who asked the question also smiled, and continued to queue up with no psychological burden. Because people kept leaving, he even moved forward several places.

“What good aptitude can people who come in with this kind of thinking have?” Someone nearby mocked, “When the five years are up, they will definitely leave dejectedly.”

The little disciple still smiled, slowly and leisurely received the disciple booklet at the front, and went to the inside of One Leaf Boat with the team leader.

Someone next to him asked, “What’s your name?”

“Lu Ren,” the little disciple said.

Lu Ren was cute, with big, bright, watery black eyes, which made people feel good.

“Can I share a room with you? My name is Qin Cai.”

Lu Ren agreed.

When he reached a secluded place, Lu Ren left on the pretext, and with a flash of his figure, came to a hidden place. He flicked his sleeves and threw out a green snake, and said fiercely, “Why did you follow me again?”

Qing Tu Liu innocently said: “This time the Elder asked me to come. The Demon Lord has worked so hard to sneak into One Leaf Boat, there must be a big move. In case there is a fight, I can cover the Demon Lord’s back.”

Lu Ren, who was Chao Jianxue, thought about it, and it made sense, and asked: “Is it really okay for you to be away from the gambling house all the time?”

Qing Tu Liu flicked its tongue: “You don’t know this, the most important thing for a gambling house owner is mystery.”

“So, what exactly is the Demon Lord doing coming to One Leaf Boat after his special closed-door training?”

Chao Jianxue smiled confidently and said, “To kidnap someone.”

Qing Tu Liu understood.

This is the demeanor of a demon!

Kidnapping is also a skill.

Chao Jianxue thought that he must first sneak into Yu Wei’s residence, and poison Yu Wei — Qing Tu Liu came just in time — then knock him out and pack him up and take him away, then go back to the Demon Realm and lock him up, and try all the methods to reduce his cultivation… In short, there will always be a way, and at worst, there will be a fight!

After the accommodation was assigned, Chao Jianxue and other new disciples were led to introduce the various areas in One Leaf Boat.

In the light of the sky and the clouds, the endless green lotus leaves connected to the sky, and there was no trace of the dilapidated walls in Chao Jianxue’s previous impression. The pavilions and winding corridors built entirely of white wood, and the various halls were scattered in a well-organized manner. I wonder if they are completely replicating the former Jade Jungle One Leaf Boat.

The roof of the winding corridor is also very high. There is still water on both sides, one side is covered with lotus flowers, and the other side has red carps swimming. If it is foggy, it will be even more like a fairyland.

The team leader pointed diagonally upwards, and everyone saw a rather tall white jade building.

“If the Boat Lord is here, he is usually here.”

They bypassed the white jade building along the road, and the view was wide. In the vast fairyland in the distance, there also seemed to be a courtyard. There was no road connected. Someone asked, “What is that place?”

The team leader said: “That is the Boat Lord’s forbidden area. Those who trespass will die.” Seeing the faces of the new disciples changed, she smiled and said, “But don’t worry, there are restrictions in front of the forbidden area. Even if you want to go, you can’t break in.”

Forbidden area? Chao Jianxue was very interested. Could Yu Wei have hidden some shameful secrets? This secret must be very important, otherwise how could someone like him issue such a ruthless ban?

He looked up at the white jade building, his eyes slightly condensed, as if he saw a person standing by the window.

He asked, “Is the Boat Lord here now?”

The team leader said, “I’m not sure.”

The breeze blew, and the lotus leaves trembled.

The Jade Jungle fairyland is very wide. If only one person lives here, he will definitely go crazy from loneliness over time. Chao Jianxue thought that it would be good for Yu Wei to recruit more disciples like this, lively and bustling. When he likes to be quiet, he hides in the white jade building, and when he wants to talk, he comes out. It is better than him hanging coldly in the sky as the moon alone.

After a day, the disciples returned to their respective houses. Chao Jianxue took the so-called Cold Soul Bitter Lotus technique introduction and looked at it. He was a little surprised. Yu Wei really easily passed on his family’s unique technique. The details were all written on it, and the introduction was very thorough, without any hidden secrets.

Generally, large families with unique techniques would not be so kind.

However, it seems that only the Yu clan’s bloodline can fully display the Cold Soul Bitter Lotus. If you take a hundred steps as an example, what he can pass on is only ninety-nine steps.

Chao Jianxue sighed.

“What are you sighing for?” Qin Cai happened to hear the faint sigh, as if there was infinite regret, and turned his head over.

Chao Jianxue said, “I didn’t see the Boat Lord, it’s so regrettable.”

Qin Cai became interested: “Did you really come because of the Boat Lord? But I heard that the Boat Lord doesn’t appear in front of us very often. I wonder if the Boat Lord has a Dao companion…”

“Um…” Chao Jianxue fell into deep thought. After all, it has been several decades. If Yu Wei already has a new Dao companion, is it better for him to kidnap Yu Wei’s Dao companion too…

Qin Cai’s light words made Chao Jianxue toss and turn after lying down.

Will there be a Dao companion?

It doesn’t look like it, and there is no information at all…

If there is really a Dao companion, is he going to be the big stick that beats the mandarin ducks! Then Yu Wei will hate him even more…

Forget it!

Chao Jianxue thought that if he was a big stick, he would be a big stick!

After studying the exercises by himself for a while, Chao Jianxue would go to the White Jade Building whenever he had nothing to do. He is now very confident in his disguise technique, and Qing Tu Liu is also an expert in disguise. Under his guidance, he guarantees that there will be no flaws.

Under his careful observation, he found that Yu Wei lit the candle before dawn every day, worked for a few hours, and then meditated and cultivated. At night, he would go to the forbidden area on the water, and then return to the White Jade Building in the middle of the night.

Every day is like this.

Chao Jianxue hid in the corner to observe, and was only caught by Qin Cai once, who laughed at him for being deeply in love and advised him not to be a peeping tom!

Finally, one day, Chao Jianxue saw Yu Wei’s back leaving One Leaf Boat with his own eyes.

It didn’t look like he would be back soon.

Chao Jianxue set off immediately and quickly stepped into the mist on the water.

The mysterious forbidden area was getting closer and closer. He narrowed his eyes and tentatively released his spiritual consciousness, and sure enough, he found a thin cover in front of the forbidden area.

He was very familiar with the spiritual power and spells used by Yu Wei, and couldn’t be more familiar with them.

Chao Jianxue pinched a magic trick, and a hole was opened in the cover, but the size was limited, and it could not be opened for a long time. He turned sideways and jumped lightly into it. When he landed on the water, not even a ripple spread out.

The restriction behind him closed exactly.

What completely appeared in front of him was a delicate courtyard, with a tall pear tree in the yard, which was much higher. It was not spring outside, but it was covered with snow-white stamens, and the fragrance filled the wind.

A few petals fell in front of Chao Jianxue with the wind. He reached out to catch them. They were transformed by spiritual power, and disappeared in his palm in a moment, like a few melting snowflakes.

A bit familiar…

Chao Jianxue thought.

He cast a little magic at the door, and then cautiously stepped into the courtyard. Everything was elegant and delicate. Many things were newly released in the Seven Treasures Pavilion. When did Yu Wei have such a habit?

When he stepped into the house, Chao Jianxue was dumbfounded.

So familiar.

How could it be so familiar?

This celadon vase with red plums inserted in it, the flowers carved on it have a corner that was accidentally broken and forgotten to be replaced –

His.

These little toys on the Bogu shelf, the lotus-shaped incense burner that Yu Wei sent in the past, the golden little bird that can call all over –

His.

The exercises booklet on the desk filled with graffiti, scattered books, and a “Combined Cultivation Essentials Record,” which he was reading the night before he left, and didn’t have time to put back, so it was spread out on the desk for many years –

Still his!

This whole place is simply a complete copy of his residence in Qingxue Building in the Wuwei Sect. He has obviously never been here, but there are traces of his life everywhere.

In a daze, he walked into the inner room, and his pupils trembled again.

He knew this bed and this couch, but what were the two obvious chains on the head of the bed for?

Chao Jianxue couldn’t help but pick it up and gesticulated with it on his hand. It was actually very tight and quite heavy, which frightened him and he quickly threw it away.

It’s not that he’s overthinking, he just glanced at the “Combined Cultivation Essentials Record” on the table. At that time, the page he was reading was about the little pleasures between the beds, and there was playing this kind of bondage in it…

So now it’s not that he wants to tie up Yu Wei, but Yu Wei also wants to tie him up!

But it can’t be ruled out that it’s because he hates him too much, so he developed in a perverted direction…

After all, in the eyes of the world, he is already a dead person, Yu Wei’s behavior is very strange…

The shock of seeing this thing was difficult to dissipate for a long time. Chao Jianxue put his sleeves and looked around, and there was a painting hanging on the wall.

In the painting, two people stand side by side, vaguely shaking in the purple flower shadows. Compared to now, there is still a bit of youthful childishness on the peaceful and indifferent smiles of the two people. It is as if a scene can only be seen in a dream.

It was the portrait they used to draw together in Xizhou. Yu Wei has actually kept it to this day.

Suddenly, Chao Jianxue’s arm felt hot.

The magic he put at the door worked, someone was back!

He rolled on the spot, rolled under the bed, and hid his breath.

The person who came had steady footsteps and inaudible breathing. The jade-white corner of the clothes fell in front of Chao Jianxue, blocking the light.

How did he come back so quickly?

Suddenly, Yu Wei opened his mouth and said, “Senior brother.”

Chao Jianxue’s heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat came down all of a sudden.

Was he discovered…

He closed his eyes tightly, stiffly shrinking inside, not daring to look at all.

But he soon realized that Yu Wei was talking to himself. He said in a weak but resentful tone, “Senior brother, liar…”

So he didn’t find him.

Chao Jianxue heard his voice and felt that his spiritual power was damaged. He didn’t know what he had done when he went out.
