Chapter 100: Traveling with a Beauty
Chapter 100: Traveling with a Beauty
You Longsheng's plan to spend a glamorous night at Chunfeng Tower fell through. However, there was an extra person in his bed that night.
Moreover, it must be said that Ding Baiyun had a truly captivating voice.
...
The next morning, Ding Baiyun appeared in the mountain villa with her arm casually linked through You Longsheng's, exuding an elegant and extraordinary aura befitting the lady of the manor.
You Ji wore a broad smile, and You Teng couldn't help but address her as "madam." Although Ding Baiyun quickly corrected him, her happiness was evident even to the guard dogs of the villa.
"By the way, I remember that Zi Jinbao once mentioned that Nanhai Niangzi had a disciple," Ding Baiyun suddenly said.
"It's impressive that you remembered that."
Ding Baiyun's face turned slightly red, and she shot You Longsheng a annoyed glance. "Nanhai Niangzi's disciple must also be skilled in disguise, so don't be careless."
You Longsheng patted Ding Baiyun's waist affectionately. "I have a copy of the Qiqiao Jing in my room, which also includes some methods of disguise and poisoning. Take a look when you have time, so you can be aware of their tricks."
"The Qiqiao Jing? Is it the same one written by Shaolin Xinjian?" Ding Baiyun asked.
You Longsheng nodded. "Yes, that's the one."
Ding Baiyun blinked, her rationality returning as she gave You Longsheng a mysterious look. "You didn't use that book to see through Nanhai Niangzi yesterday, did you?"
"How is that possible!"
You Longsheng feigned righteousness. "Nanhai Niangzi's disguise skills are far superior to Xinjian's. How could I have seen through her?"
Ding Baiyun looked at You Longsheng, feeling both annoyed and amused. However, since they had already spent the night together, there was no need to pursue the matter further.
"You got lucky!"
You Longsheng rolled his eyes, unmoved by her words. "Even if you hadn't been there yesterday, I still would've gone to Chunfeng Tower!"
Ding Baiyun froze, gritting her teeth. She couldn't help but extend her hand, fingers pointed like a sword.
"If you dare to go looking for those shameless women, I'll cut it off!"
You Longsheng was stunned. "That's not what you said yesterday!"
The previous night, they had agreed on three rules, and he had even received three 'precautionary' warnings.
"And if you cut it off, what will you use then? The hilt?"
Before yesterday, Ding Baiyun had been a virgin, so it was natural for her to blush at this topic.
However, she stubbornly persisted. "I've changed my mind. You can have your Lan Jie, but from now on, you can only visit the brothel for entertainment, not for sleeping around!"
"Hey, you little vixen, I'm not someone who can be handled by just one or two women!"
"Hmph, do you think I can't handle you? There's no such thing as a field that can't be plowed, only a cow that's too tired. I want to see if you have the ability!"
Not long after they had come out, the couple retreated back into the bedroom.
As it turned out, You Longsheng hadn't been boasting. The Fangzhong Bisu taught by Yuxiao Daoist indeed had its unique merits, and Ding Baiyun was truly unable to handle it, eventually conceding defeat and retreating a step.
...
For the next three days, Ding Baiyun studied the Qiqiao Jing and the Fangzhong Shu in the bedroom, both to guard against potential retaliation from Nanhai Niangzi's disciple and to enhance her ability to deal with You Longsheng.
However, You Longsheng wasn't too concerned.
Firstly, Tie Gu had become Nanhai Niangzi's disciple with the sole purpose of assassinating her, as Nanhai Niangzi had betrayed the Demon Sect.
Secondly, Tie Gu's martial arts in Jiuyue Yingfei were truly mediocre, as she was easily killed by Shangguan Xiaoxian, and certainly wouldn't be a match for him at this time.
You Longsheng: (^^)
And with that, he was once again dragged back into the bedroom by Ding Baiyun.
...
Ding Baiyun stayed in the Sword-Concealing Villa for several days before the two of them set out on a journey together.
Winter blanketed the land in white, and it was the perfect time to appreciate the snowy landscapes of the famous mountains in the Taihang Mountains.
Wutai Mountain, Heng Mountain, Lvliang Mountain, Zhongtiao Mountain, Wangwu Mountain, Northern Wudang Mountain...
It had to be said that Shanxi was indeed full of mountains, and each one had its unique features. Some were home to Buddhist and Taoist forces like the Hanging Temple and Yuanling Palace, while others harbored bandit strongholds like Black Tiger Fortress and Flying Eagle Fortress.
You Longsheng and Ding Baiyun rode side by side, their journey attracting the attention of mountain bandits who tried to rob them of their horses on two separate occasions.
Of course, the outcomes of those encounters were quite pleasing.
One day, amidst the silvery snow-covered landscape, the two of them arrived at Heng Mountain on horseback.
"I've heard that the Hanging Temple is a wonder of the world. I met the abbot of the Hanging Temple, Master Huiming, at Yuan Qiuyun's wedding, and he invited me to visit the temple when I had the time."
You Longsheng said, "In the end, I've circled the Western Regions and the southern lands of the Yangtze, but I still haven't made it to the Hanging Temple."
Ding Baiyun, by his side, drew her sword and mounted her horse, a smile on her face, "I've never been there either. Let's go take a look together."
And so, the two of them headed towards the Hanging Temple.
You Longsheng had only seen pictures of the Hanging Temple online during his time in the modern world, and now that he was here in person, he couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur of the ancient architects.
After all, this temple was built during the Northern Wei Dynasty, back in the Northern and Southern Dynasties period!
Stepping into the Hanging Temple, Master Huiming himself welcomed them, and You Longsheng and Ding Baiyun partook in a simple vegetarian meal before inquiring about the nearby sights.
"Heng Mountain is one of the Five Great Mountains of China, and it's the most famous mountain in Shanxi. There are eighteen famous scenes, as well as three temples, four shrines, nine pavilions, seven palaces, eight caves, and twelve temples. Every turn presents a unique and wondrous landscape."
You Longsheng laughed, "And the Hanging Temple is undoubtedly the most famous among them."
"You give the Hanging Temple too much credit, my friend. I am but a humble monk, carrying on the legacy of my ancestors, reciting sutras every day, and never daring to slack off."
Master Huiming smiled, "However, aside from the Hanging Temple, the other temples and shrines in the area do not have many martial artists residing in them. You and Miss Ding have come as representatives of the martial arts world, and it is an honor for us."
"Thank you for your kind reminder, Master."
Master Huiming waved his hand, "Not far from the Hanging Temple is the White Void Abbey, which is quite famous. Below the Cuiping Peak, there is also a Plum Blossom Nunnery, which offers a panoramic view of the surroundings.
With the heavy snowfall today, the entire area is blanketed in silver. If you wish to enjoy the snowy scenery, the Plum Blossom Nunnery is even more suitable than my humble Hanging Temple."
Ding Baiyun smiled, "Thank you for your suggestion, Master. We shall visit the Plum Blossom Nunnery tomorrow."
You Longsheng sat to the side, holding back his laughter, not daring to look at Ding Baiyun. He gazed out the window of the Hanging Temple's pavilion instead.
The Plum Blossom Nunnery...
It was indeed a place of great renown!
The entire story of 'Border Town Wanderer' began with the battle at Plum Blossom Nunnery.
More than twenty elite martial artists from the Central Plains had perished, and the entire family of Tianye had been wiped out.
And one of the masterminds behind that incident was none other than the woman sitting beside him, the elegant and valiant, charming and witty, Ding Baiyun.
