Chapter 350
Chapter 350
Although Little Orange was worried that her young miss would be taken advantage of by Zhang Xiaohua, she couldn't do it on her own. She was also afraid of being hunted down by bad people, so she could only hold her nose and ask Zhang Xiaohua for help. Thankfully, Zhang Xiaohua was a gentleman. She closed her eyes and even wrapped her hands with clothes as if it was something she really needed to do. She helped Little Orange support Miss Nie and successfully changed into the farmer's clothes.
After changing, Zhang Xiaohua opened her eyes and couldn't help but praise, "Little Orange, look at your young miss. She's wearing farmer's clothes and looks even more authentic than me, an authentic farmer's child. Could it be that your family is a landowner in the countryside?"
"Pei!" Little Orange almost spat on Zhang Xiaohua's face again. This guy looks ordinary and unattractive. He was still acting like a serious nerd in the morning. How did he become so glib in just one morning?
She actually couldn't help but want to hit him?
"Sigh, let's drink some water first. We'll talk again when you're hydrated."
Little Orange looked at Zhang Xiaohua exasperatedly. She picked up the waterskin from the carriage and drank several mouthfuls in succession.
After she finished, she thought for a moment and handed it to Zhang Xiaohua, saying, "Ren Xiaoyao, you've been busy all morning and didn't even drink a sip of water. You must be tired. You should drink some too."
Zhang Xiaohua took it with a smile, but as soon as she handed it over, Little Orange regretted it. What?
She drank from the waterskin's mouth just now. Now, if Zhang Xiaohua also drank from his mouth like her …
Wouldn't that be …
Thinking of this, Little Orange's face flushed red.
Unfortunately, the waterskin was already in Zhang Xiaohua's hands. Even if she wanted to take it back, she didn't have a good reason.
She just needed to lower her head, look sideways, and glance at it from time to time.
Zhang Xiaohua saw her strange behavior and did not understand at first. But when he was about to drink, he felt Little Orange's body tremble slightly. He looked at the water bag and immediately understood. He smiled and said, "I'm not thirsty. I'm not tired. I'm working hard for Little Orange and Miss. My heart is sweet."
Then, he threw the water bag back into the carriage and said, "This water bag belongs to someone else. Let's not take it."
When Little Orange saw that Zhang Xiaohua did not drink any water, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. But immediately, a trace of disappointment appeared in his heart.
Then, with Zhang Xiaohua's help, Little Orange carefully carried his Miss onto the worn-out carriage. Actually, Zhang Xiaohua thought that he could do it by himself. Who knew that this Little Orange was so loyal. He was afraid that his Miss would be bullied and insisted on doing it himself. So, Zhang Xiaohua could only help hold his Miss's injured arm. Sigh, he had no choice. Zhang Xiaohua put on some clothes on his arm and went to help.
After moving the most important Miss Nie onto the worn-out carriage, the rest of the things were naturally taken by Zhang Xiaohua. This time, Little Orange did not stop him at all. The luxurious carriage was not too big, but there were a lot of things inside. It was hard for Little Orange to clean it up so well. It almost filled up all the extra space in the worn-out carriage. Zhang Xiaohua looked at it and could not help but frown. How could this be? It did not look like something from a country family.
Zhang Xiaohua told her concerns to Little Orange. Little Orange also felt that it was inappropriate. But looking at these things, he could not bear to throw this away or throw that away. He wanted to use this and that too. He was really a money-grubber just like Zhang Xiaohua. In the end, Zhang Xiaohua had no choice but to coax and scare him to throw a small portion of the things that were not too valuable and took up a lot of space back into the luxurious carriage. As for the rest, she covered it with a worn-out felt cloth to hide it.
Zhang Xiaohua led the black horse and drove the luxurious carriage onto the main road. She walked forward a bit, looked around, and saw that there was no one around. Then, she slapped the black horse's butt. The black horse cried out in pain and galloped forward. Zhang Xiaohua easily jumped down from the carriage and ran back.
Little Orange sat in the small and narrow roof of the worn-out carriage and felt extremely uncomfortable. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua coming back, he asked, "Ren Xiaoyao, why didn't you find a slightly bigger carriage?"
Zhang Xiaohua shrugged and said, "This is already not bad. This town isn't big, so there aren't any places that specialize in selling carriages. Besides, we're just farmers in the countryside now. If the carriage is bigger, it won't look like it."
Little Orange muttered, "I know the reason. I'm just afraid that Miss won't be used to it when she wakes up and will blame me. Oh right, I even threw Miss's carriage away. Do you think Miss will scold me?"
After Miss Nie finished taking the medicine from the medical hall, her complexion looked better and her fever gradually subsided. Therefore, Little Orange's heart, which had been on edge all this time, finally returned to its original position. He also had the leisure to think about other things.
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Little Orange strangely and said, "You're your Miss' maidservant. I'm not. How would I know your Miss' temper?
Who knows if she'll blame you or not! "
"Alright, alright, forget it. Hurry up and drive the carriage. Don't let the bad guys catch up to us."
In fact, Zhang Xiaohua knew very well that the news of all the bad guys being wiped out would probably only be sent back this afternoon. The next time they would send someone over would probably be tomorrow. That was not including the time they would have to study it. Therefore, he had plenty of time to spare. However, since Little Orange was urging him, he did not say anything else. He walked in front of the David's Deer and patted its head affectionately. The David's Deer slowly pulled the cart forward while Zhang Xiaohua walked beside the David's Deer.
The inn Zhang Xiaohua found was not big or new. It was located in a rather remote part of town. She didn't know what the innkeeper was thinking. Why would anyone come to a place like this?
However, looking at the innkeeper's indifferent attitude when he saw the customers, she could probably guess the reason.
The courtyard Zhang Xiaohua rented was not inside the inn but next to it. It was a very small courtyard that was similar to the one Ji Xiaohua lived in. The shabby appearance of the courtyard was also similar. Presumably, a family used to live there. The courtyard had its own entrance and a small door that was connected to the inn. Zhang Xiaohua led the carriage to the courtyard under the guidance of a waiter. Then Zhang Xiaohua gave the waiter a few copper coins and sent him away.
The waiter was very happy when he received the copper coins. It seemed like there weren't many people who tipped him, which made Zhang Xiaohua feel very regretful. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have tipped him.
There were three rooms in this small courtyard. Little Orange carefully tidied up the largest one before carrying Miss Nie onto the bed with Zhang Xiaohua's help. Before Zhang Xiaohua could say anything, Little Orange kicked him out and said nicely, "Miss Nie's boudoir is not for trespassers."
Zhang Xiaohua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This little girl didn't regard herself as an outsider at all. She couldn't wait to get rid of this big burden so she could go on her way. Who would want to provoke her?
Of course, she was just thinking about it. Since she had already helped to this extent, there was a saying from ancient times: "If you do a good deed to the end, send Buddha to the Western Paradise." One or two more days wouldn't make much of a difference. If she just gave up now, would she still be human?
Looking at Little Orange's appearance, Zhang Xiaohua swallowed the words she wanted to say. She turned around and went out. She untied Huanhuan from the carriage and casually threw the broken carriage in a corner. Then, she found a small room nearby and pushed the door open.
This small room was clean and tidy, but it was a small town after all. The room emitted an indescribable smell of soil. Zhang Xiaohua felt very comfortable when she smelled it. She couldn't help but think of her own Guozhuang House. Didn't it have the same smell?
"Sigh …" Zhang Xiaohua sighed. She wished she could grow wings and fly back home to Guozhuang House. But now, she had to wait for Miss Nie's body to recover.
Then, Zhang Xiaohua took out a primeval stone and sat cross-legged. Just as she was about to cultivate the Carefree Heart Sutra, a thought suddenly entered her mind. "Grow wings?"
If she could obtain the cultivation method after the Ethereal Steps, perhaps she could fly into the sky?
Wasn't the Misty School already destroyed? When she had the opportunity, she should go to the Misty Mountain Villa to take a look. Their restriction must have some immortal dao items. If there were some suitable cultivation methods inside, then she would be rich!
"Hehe …" Thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but reveal a trace of a smile.
"What would it be like to fly into the sky?
Aiyo, that day at the teahouse in Songning Town, I felt like I was flying into the sky. I flew higher and higher. That shouldn't be my divine sense. Then what could it be?
Could it be my consciousness?
During this period of time, I was in a hurry to return home and didn't properly comprehend what I learned that day. The comprehension of flying into the sky isn't something that can be obtained easily. Moreover, I risked the danger of my consciousness drifting away to obtain it. "
After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua secretly operated her cultivation method to absorb the primeval qi while carefully comprehending what she had learned from flying into the sky.
That day, Zhang Xiaohua sat in the tall building and looked down at the bustling crowd below. It was as if she was high above, looking down at the various states of the world. In an instant, her consciousness left her body and flew towards the boundless horizon. It was similar to the Unity of Heaven and Man realm in the Immortal Dao cultivation. The Unity of Heaven and Man realm, as the name suggests, was to combine one's consciousness with the consciousness of the Heavenly Dao. The boundless horizon in Zhang Xiaohua's perception was only the simplest manifestation of the Heavenly Dao. The cultivation of the Immortal Dao was the process of exploring, exploring, and grasping the Heavenly Dao. This Unity of Heaven and Man realm was a shortcut to integrate the essence or meaning of the Heavenly Dao into one's consciousness.
And the appearance of this realm was extremely rare. Even during the peak of the Immortal Dao in the ancient times, there were only a few that appeared. And these few that appeared were all the outstanding cultivators of the Immortal Dao. They all borrowed the moment when they glimpsed the essence of the Heavenly Dao and grasped some of the rules of the Heavenly Dao. From then on, they had a great improvement in their cultivation, reaching a level that ordinary cultivators could not imagine.
The reason why Zhang Xiaohua was able to enter this exceptionally precious realm was not only because of the deep accumulation of his four years on the deserted island, but also because he had left the mortal world for a long time. When he returned, he had many feelings. It was as if there was a saying, "There is no Bodhi tree, nor is there a bright mirror. If there is nothing at first, where can there be dust?"
The moment Zhang Xiaohua's clean mirror came into contact with the mortal world, everything in the world became so clear. It could not help but arouse his feelings towards the Heavenly Dao!
PS: Thank you everyone for your encouragement. I feel that my confidence has swelled, hehe.
