Some people are born with great courage, unafraid of anything. Others are born timid, afraid of everything. Chu Siyu's courage lies somewhere in between, a kind of Schrödinger's courage.
After all, this social phobia patient becomes short of breath and extremely nervous as soon as she enters a crowded place. But it's this very person who dares to sneak out of the Great Wilderness Dynasty alone, following a strange elder to the Yan Yue Immortal Sect to learn the art.
She even dared to run to save a five-order large snake, the gray-bellied purple-scaled python, which seems ferocious to outsiders. Seeing such a red-faced monster suddenly, Chu Siyu was indeed scared silly, but after falling off the stone stool, she suddenly remembered that this is in the Yan Yue Immortal Sect.
This is one of the safest places in the entire immortal domain, how could such a terrifying ghost appear? But when she saw Su Huai come over from the next door, the courage she had just mustered disappeared without a trace. The strength that had surged in her body also quietly dissipated.
"Not afraid, not afraid, there are no ghosts, it's an illusion."
She didn't care about being shy because Su Huai picked her up without permission, Chu Siyu's small hand tightly clutched his clothes.
"There is... I saw..."
"Really not."
"You're lying to me..."
Su Huai was stunned, took a deep breath, and took out the ghost face he had drawn from the storage ring.
"Look, that ghost is actually me disguised."
The moment Chu Siyu saw the ghost face, she couldn't help but tremble, then she bit her lip and looked at Su Huai.
"Why did you scare me?"
"I didn't mean to scare you, you were the one who wanted to peek at me."
"I didn't peek..."
"What were you doing on the courtyard wall then?"
Chu Siyu mumbled and stopped talking.
Su Huai carried her into the house, put her on her small bed, and then reached out to touch her head.
"Did you get scared just now?"
"Are you feeling better now?"
Chu Siyu wanted to tell him loudly, I'm not afraid at all! I'm a super brave girl.
But she couldn't speak.
Because just now, her not-so-smart little head suddenly realized something she couldn't accept.
Su Huai, this rascal seems to have become a very peculiar existence in her life without realizing it.
Especially when encountering danger.
When Su Huai is there, Chu Siyu's social attribute +99, courage -99, she is a girl who is not afraid of people but is afraid of danger.
When Su Huai is not there, Chu Siyu's social attribute -99, courage +100, she is a girl who is not afraid of hardships but is afraid of people.
This person is too strange, he must have used some imperceptible bewitching technique on me!
Chu Siyu, are you broken...
She lay on the small bed, her small hand slowly moved to the quilt, then quickly pulled it over and covered herself completely.
God of the quilt, please bless me!
Su Huai stood by the bed, watching his rich wife make this self-deceptive action, and twitched the corners of his mouth.
He didn't want to tell Chu Siyu about the ghost face, after all, she is also going to participate in the upcoming exchange with the Tian Han Palace, the rich wife is silly, in case she slips her mouth...
Then the plan would fail!
Although this plan is just to satisfy his own bad taste, it doesn't matter if it fails.
But it is the source of his own happiness!
...
Forget it.
Who let oneself swear in the previous life when marrying the rich wife, never deceive her.
Su Huai reached out and gestured twice at the position of Chu Siyu's buttocks, but in the end, his hand did not really fall.
He turned his head and began to look at the rich wife's boudoir.
Simple, tidy, with a few paintings and some dyes placed by the window.
Painting is the greatest pastime for the rich wife after refining the pill, although her painting style is strange, and her painting skills are extremely bad in the eyes of Su Huai, who has been influenced by modern art.
Su Huai walked to the canvas and looked at the latest one.
A pond, a large snake, and three small people are outlined with black lines.
The overall picture is extremely monotonous, with only two small people painted with some sparse dyes.
The small person sitting by the pond is green, which must be Cao Yi, the woman who likes to wear green clothes.
Wow! This is the one who spreads his hands, protecting the large snake and another small person behind him, right?
Sure enough, he is heroic and full of spirit, even the crooked lines can't block my Su Huai's peerless handsomeness!
It's just... Why is the clothes painted black, but the head is filled with yellow!?
Slander! Judge, she's slandering me!!!
I didn't expect Chu Siyu to be so cute on the surface, but in fact, she is so dark-hearted! Secretly scolding me for being full of yellow trash in my mind, right!?
Su Huai secretly picked up the brush and messed around in front of the canvas for a long time.
Then he went back to the bed and knocked on the edge of the bed.
"Rich wife, then you sleep slowly, I'll go first."
"Hmm!"
A muffled voice came out of the quilt, and at the same time, a small hand stretched out, holding a small porcelain bottle.
"Give it to you."
"What is it, not some poison, right?"
The small hand slowly retracted, and it seemed that it didn't want to give it.
Su Huai wanted to slap himself, meow, he was used to being cheap, and didn't react for a while.
He quickly held that small hand, took the porcelain bottle out of her hand, and immediately poured a pill into his mouth.
Sweet, it's a third-order spirit-returning pill, of high quality.
The rich wife is indeed a talent in refining pills. She has only been in the Medicine Spirit Peak for two days, and she has mastered the refining method of another third-order pill.
After chewing and swallowing the pill, Su Huai deliberately made a swallowing sound.
"How can there be a reason to take back what has been given out."
"Even if it's poison, I'll eat it."
"Hum!"
Well, the rich wife has learned to hum in bed so quickly.
Is it far from lying in bed and humming!?
Su Huai gestured twice at the quilt again.
"I really go back, I'll come to wake you up tomorrow morning."
"Hmm..."
The door was gently closed.
A moment later, a small head emerged from the quilt.
Chu Siyu climbed out of bed stealthily, opened the door and took a look at the empty courtyard, then locked the door again and ran to her canvas.
The little person representing Su Huai is still ugly, but he has a light blue flower in his hand.
And the little person originally representing Chu Siyu herself has been painted with a light blue skirt, delicate facial features, and a pair of colorful wings on the back...
In the painting, she is smiling sweetly, staring at the ugly yellow-faced man in front of her.
Chu Siyu reached out and poked the head of the yellow-faced man, and couldn't help but let out a light laugh...
...
...
Sinking Moon Valley.
Su Huai, of course, couldn't sleep obediently. He is only seventeen years old, how could he sleep at this age!?
What's more, the people from the Cold Palace have arrived at the Sinking Moon Valley. As the holy son of the Yan Yue Immortal Sect, it is his duty to entertain the distinguished guests who have come from afar.
Left hand iron chain, right hand steel hook.
Wearing a ghost face, no one loves it.
Su Huai found a corner where no one was, jumped into the Sinking Moon Lake, dove to the bottom of the water, and began to wait quietly for the prey to come.
