Chapter 24 Random Reasoning
Lin Bai looked out the window, there was a glow outside, it must be evening.
From last night to tonight, there have been many ups and downs.
Lin Bai's eyes were clear, he had no desires, his heart was like an ancient well, like a saint, and all he thought about were the thoughts of a sage:
"Where is the end of martial arts? Where are the immortals?"
"What is the meaning of life? Is it to constantly pursue the strongest? Or to be mediocre? What is the difference between weaving mats, selling shoes and being the supreme leader?"
Just as he was about to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sages, his stomach growled twice.
From last night to now, Lin Bai didn't get much rest, and he didn't eat anything serious. He only ate a few steamed buns in the morning.
He was a young man by nature, and he also practiced internal martial arts and muscles and bones. Lin Bai was not sleepy at the moment, but he was very hungry and exhausted.
He turned his head and saw Mu Zhen. She had closed her eyes and was asleep, her face still flushed.
Lin Bai wanted to get something to eat, so he patted her.
Mu Zhen turned around and kept mumbling, "Are you finished?" Her voice was lazy and a little impatient.
Lin Bai didn't get along with her for a long time, but they already had a tacit understanding...
That's when she would get the wrong idea.
"My arms are numb from the pillow." Lin Bai said helplessly.
Mu Zhen moved, and Lin Bai withdrew his arm and took a few sips of herbal tea.
When I came to the kitchen, I boiled hot water and then wiped my body with cold water.
After finishing everything, Lin Bai sat by the fire, poked at the stove, then closed his eyes and relaxed his mind.
Immediately appearing in the stone disk space, Lin Bai crossed his legs and thought carefully.
When they arrived at Mu Zhen's house last night, the two of them didn't talk too much and quickly entered the alley, but Lin Bai was always wary.
But after a while, Lin Bai found that Mu Zhen was very normal.
At that time, the fog in the stone disk space did not change. Lin Bai secretly took Mu Zhen's pulse, which was indeed that of a normal woman.
Then Lin Bai put down his vigilance and started to ignore it, resting and stopping, and has been busy until now.
"Of course it doesn't mean that Mu Zhen is necessarily normal. If her strength is far superior to mine, her pulse and other things can be changed... But her expression and reaction at that time didn't look like she was pretending."
"Furthermore, her belly is fleshy, her limbs have the strength of an ordinary woman, and her breathing interval is also that of an ordinary person. She is definitely not practicing Jiazi, let alone internal strength."
"She can't be a Taoist immortal..."
Thinking of this, Lin Bai was suddenly stunned, thinking that this was possible.
"The most suspicious thing is that she looks good and has no relatives to rely on, but she has been able to settle down in Beicheng for many years without anyone coming to find trouble. Is this the treatment of a beautiful widow in a poor place?"
"If the stone plate is some kind of artifact, it is normal for others to chase it. Did Mu Zhen come here for the stone plate? Then how did she find out about this secret? Or can anyone who practices Taoism see the abnormalities in me? ?”
"I only obtained the stone plate after dreaming back to another world and exploring the mystery in my womb. And she has been selling steamed buns for several years. I didn't have much contact with her before and was just an ordinary neighbor. Could it be that she had planned it early, but It wasn’t until I got the stone plate that she came to deliver steamed buns to me... Then my stone plate didn’t seem to be much more powerful.”
"If that's the case, I'm afraid she'll see through what I've done these days. Even when I eavesdropped in the corner and suspected her identity, she also knew about it."
"And last time I wanted to be honest with her, but she asked me to wait, and then Ren Biao came to her door on a whim..."
"She slept with me after that, but I didn't remember any details afterwards. At the time, I thought I was drunk and forgot about things. Thinking about it now, I practice Wuji Gong so hard, how could I get drunk so easily? She should have knocked me out and checked me out. She is secretive, but there is no gain. The clouds outside the stone plate block some of her methods."
"Next, I was obsessed with killing Ren Biao, and even acted carelessly, raising a knife and striking hard... Did she want to see how much progress I had made in these days? To infer some effect of the stone plate?" "She For Shi Pan, he not only committed himself to me, but also quite cooperated with my small requests. I don’t know if he was too involved in the drama, but he also had fun.”
"But why don't you just take me down? Out of some concerns or other reasons?"
"If that's the case, her strength... Judging from her performance last night and today, she shouldn't be much stronger than me. In other words, her strength does not lie in her bones and internal strength, but some kind of magical power..."
"And it's not like I'm so strong. Otherwise, how could I be so shameless that I sleep with someone like me, who weaves mats and sells shoes?"
After some thinking, although it is far-fetched, it still makes sense.
Lin Bai would rather believe it. There are rumors in this world that there are immortals who practice spiritual practice, and multiple minds are always right.
"Anyway, she has no intention of harming me for the time being, otherwise there will be too many opportunities to kill me. Since she can't run away, she can only wait and see."
As for whether he misunderstood Mu Zhen, Lin Bai felt that it was related to his own secrets and even his life. If he misunderstood, he would just misunderstand. He would just make up for it in the future.
"In the future, when thinking about important things, you must stay within the stone plate and not think about it outside. Maybe others have some weird tricks."
Lin Bai opened his eyes. The stove in the kitchen was still burning and the water was not boiling.
Standing up, returning to the bedroom, putting on clothes, Lin Bai looked at Mu Zhen, who was still sleeping, and patted her gently.
Mu Zhen didn't open her eyes and continued to rest.
"Are you still sleepy? It's time to get up and eat." Lin Bai squeezed it, thinking that it would be great if he married her back home.
"I'm not hungry..." Mu Zhen rubbed her head and sat up, "Go aside, you can eat first to build up your strength..."
"..." Does this mean I'm vain? Lin Bai's face turned red, but he said seriously: "While we are eating, let's talk about something important."
"What's the big deal?" Mu Zhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is it our business?"
"Of course. Although I, Lin Bai, make a living by weaving mats and selling shoes, I also know the word loyalty. You don't despise me, but you still pledge yourself to me. How can I be a person who starts in chaos and ends up abandoning you?" Lin Bai spoke righteously.
"You're so elegant, do you want to show that you've read a book?" Mu Zhen sat up, tilted her head slightly, played with her hair on her temples with both hands, and said, "You're talking human language."
Lin Bai said: "I will not sleep in vain."
"Do you really want to marry me? Don't you think I'm a widow?" Mu Zhen asked again.
Lin Bai said: "Heaven and earth can learn from each other!"
"Then when do you plan to marry me?" Mu Zhen looked a little shy.
"Whenever you say, that's when." Lin Bai sat over, held her hand, and stared at her affectionately.
"I will listen to you." Mu Zhen slapped the back of Lin Bai's hand, her face even more shy.
"It's not peaceful in the city these days. After a month or two, I'll ask Doctor Bai to come and propose marriage." Lin Bai was very serious, patted her hand and said, "You have what others have, and I will never let you suffer." Feeling wronged.”
"I will listen to you." Mu Zhen still said this, but she leaned on Lin Bai.
"Then you rest for a while, and I'll cook for you." Lin Bai said.
"Okay." Mu Zhen nodded immediately, but then slapped her forehead, "How can you let a man cook? You rest, I will go." She put on her clothes randomly, twisted her waist and went to the kitchen.
Lin Bai touched his forehead and saw no doubts at all. Instead, he only felt that Mu Zhen was virtuous.
