What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book Chapter 176

Published at 4th of September 2023 12:50:26 PM

At this moment, the world in the book is a bright day with a light drizzle.

In the book, Qiu Wuji leaned against the stone pavilion, quietly listening to the pitter-patter of the rain while reading.

The thread-bound books exude an air of sophistication, and the maids always assume that the master is reading some highbrow Taoist classics. Little do they know that the master is actually reading martial arts novels, and has read dozens of them, including the complete collection of Jin Gu.

Currently, the master is reading Huang Yi… There she realized where many of Chu Ge's styles come from.

Chu Ge's style carries a lot of influence from Jin Gu, and it can be seen everywhere. For instance, his decisive battle with Yan Qianlie is a typical reference to Gu Long's works. However, in many other aspects, his style is more like that of Huang Yi.

At that time, Chu Ge told her, “In a sense, Huang Yi can be considered one of the pioneers of online literature. 'In Search of Qin' laid the foundation, and series like 'Master of the Sword' and 'Interstellar Wanderer' shaped the world and the imagination of the fantasy genre. His works, including 'The Great Tang' and the combination of martial arts and dynastic struggles, had a profound impact and set the stage for the rise of later fantasy works…”

“Furthermore, the way he describes battles with profound implications, explores the spiritual level, uses time-stopping techniques, and employs the 'surprise of bystanders' are elements he draws upon in his writing. They are very helpful for you, so don't just focus on the explicit scenes.”

Qiu Wuji thought that her master Chu Ge has made a lot of sense, not only about the previous points but also the final remark about the explicit scenes. She even felt that Chu Ge himself hasn't learned much from the previous points; he seems to have only learned the last part, especially evident in his previous works, which bear a very distinctive style.

And he comes up with new moves and styles even more frequently than the renowned master Huang.

Where did she learn the skill of handling the pestle like that? Chu Ge could never have imagined that Qiu Wuji learned it from his own books!

Qiu Wuji could also come up with new ideas. If you, Chu Ge, can gracefully handle a blooming flower, this seat can deftly wield a spear!

Hmph…

The young disciple Qiu Wuji has unconsciously learned everything the wrong way.

“Master, Sect Master…” A little maid hurriedly ran over, looking at Qiu Wuji, who was leaning against the stone pavilion, hesitating to speak. No, Master, what are you doing? Just focus on reading your book. Why are you making a gesture as if holding a sword hilt in your other hand? Are you studying a new divine skill without a sword in hand?

Qiu Wuji moved her gaze away from the pages lazily and asked, “If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you holding it in?”

The little maid said in a hurry, “It's like this, Elder Zhou and the others heard news from the far north that our sect's disciple, Chu Tiange, encountered a group of evil beings. After a fierce battle, he managed to escape, but his whereabouts are currently unknown… This happened several days ago, and the elders are worried that something might have happened to him.”

Qiu Wuji thought to herself that the plot had begun to unfold, “Take my command token, dispatch the Sword Edge Hall to rush into the far north, sweep away the evil aura, protect the disciples, and find out where Chu Tiange is. Also, spread the word: Chu Tiange is an important rising star of our sect, the future of the next generation. Whoever dares to harm him in the slightest will be considered an enemy of our entire sect and will be punished!”

The maid saluted solemnly, “Yes!”

Watching the maid leave, Qiu Wuji sighed. She knew very well that Chu Tiange was probably fine and was out at sea right now. Yet, she had to make a big fuss, deploying troops and acting all dramatic, feeling awkward being an actor, knowing the plot all too well.

But even though she knew it, she still had to play her part, showing her attitude and declaring her fist!

Qiu Wuji clenched her fist.

At this moment, she seemed to hear a howling sound from a different world, then she calmed down again.

She smiled and hurriedly glanced over at her clone, everything was fine…

……

“Are you really okay?” Qiu Wuji suppressed a smile and asked.

“I'm fine, I'm fine.” Chu Ge tried to smooth his twitching face, using a gentle tone despite his distorted voice, “I have a solid golden bell shield as my foundation, after all…”

Qiu Wuji held back her laughter. You modified the Golden Bell Shield, and it wasn't used much in actual battles, but you're using it like this…

Actually, it's not too bad. After all, the clone doesn't have much strength. If the original body had squeezed that hard, it would have been really painful.

“Let's go back…” Qiu Wuji helped Chu Ge up with a strange mood, “Think twice if you still want good things in the future.”

Chu Ge looked at Qiu Wuji's blushing face and still felt refreshed. He secretly thought that even if she squeezed harder, it would be worth it to limp home tonight… Of course, he couldn't say these thoughts out loud; he had to praise her, “Qiuqiu is really good…”

Qiu Wuji burst into giggles, bending over.

Chu Ge: “…”

When they were going back, it was already late, and there weren't many people on the road. The whole city gave Qiu Wuji the feeling of a Sichuan opera with ever-changing faces: just a moment ago, it was joyful, but in the next moment, it turned cold.

The vehicles flowed steadily, with an icy indifference like steel.

It was not as lively as the night of the Qixi Festival, where you could still see young boys and girls riding bicycles and laughter filled the air.

Fortunately, the city changed its face, not Chu Ge.

Chu Ge still held her hand, laughing and talking all the way, despite a slight limp. He looked gentle and even flattered her a bit.

Of course, when this seat did that kind of thing, would he dare to change his face? If he tried, cut off the big head and the cute head together! It was just… just a tiny bit careless.

Both of them felt good about what they did. One was flattered, while the other felt a little guilty for hurting him, and they couldn't bear to look at each other's faces.

After a while, Chu Ge tentatively said, “Um… there should be many shopping malls that haven't closed yet, or some toy stores or boutique shops.”

Qiu Wuji came back to her senses and asked in surprise, “What are we going to buy?”

Chu Ge replied, “I want to buy you a big plush pig. I remember… I didn't buy it earlier because I couldn't find a way to carry it. My personal storage ability isn't large enough.”

Qiu Wuji's heart softened, and she whispered, “It's okay, there's no rush…”

“No, you got me a Jade Guanyin, and I'll get you a plush pig,” Chu Ge said as he pulled her and ran, “This is called exchanging tokens of affection.”

Qiu Wuji followed him, feeling both angry and amused. The two of them, dressed in ancient costumes with swords, hand in hand, ran under the neon lights of the bustling city, facing the surprised gazes of passersby. Qiu Wuji no longer felt embarrassed.

Because she had him by her side.

The shop assistant at the toy store saw the two ancient-looking people rushing in excitedly who immediately asked her, “Are there any pigs?”

The shop assistant's brain stalled for a while before she realized what was going on and asked with a smile, “How big of a pig?”

“The kind that is about the size of a person!”

“Well, we don't have pigs that big, but we do have large dogs or bears.”

Chu Ge felt a little disappointed. They had been using the pig metaphor for so long, it had sentimental meaning!

Turning to look at Qiu Wuji, she didn't seem disappointed at all. She smiled mischievously and wandered around the shelves for a while before eagerly asking the shop assistant, “Look, look, does this bear resemble him?”

Chu Ge: “?”

Shop Assistant: “?”

No matter how they looked at it, it didn't resemble him at all.

But Qiu Wuji still felt it was similar, “Look carefully, see how naive its eyes are, how silly its nose is, and the curve of its mouth smiling…”

Chu Ge: “…”

In fact, Chu Ge didn't think the bear resembled him at all. Instead, it reminded him a bit of Qiu Wuji…

The shop assistant, on the other hand, understood.

It was just the result of being infatuated. When you're in love, you see anything cute and think it resembles the person you like. Even if you just draw a ^_^ smiley face, she would probably think it resembles the man beside her.

The shop assistant wouldn't expose them, instead, she immediately agreed, “Yes, now that you mention it, it does look more and more alike!”

Qiu Wuji happily hugged the large bear, “This one is perfect!”

As she hugged it, she realized that the bear was indeed quite big. It was only a little shorter than her, but much plumper. Hugging it felt like hugging Chu Ge, and at this moment, even Chu Ge felt that the bear did resemble him a bit…

Qiu Wuji pretended to ask Chu Ge, “Is it too big?”

Chu Ge immediately responded, “As the renowned long and robust Ge, it should be this big! Moreover, bigger things are harder to bully. In the future…”

Qiu Wuji nodded, “If you ever annoy me, I'll beat you with it.”

Chu Ge: “?”

The shop assistant almost laughed out loud. She found this couple to be adorable, even more so than the large bear.

“Ding!” The hanging clock in the store chimed, and the hour hand pointed to midnight.

“The Mid-Autumn Festival is over,” Qiu Wuji pouted slightly.

But as she hugged the big bear, she felt happy again and rubbed its face.

In the world of books, there was nothing particularly special about Qiu Wuji's season. However, after coming out, she experienced her first Qixi Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, both of which she spent happily.

Looking at the silly appearance of the big bear, the 10,000 years old ancient lady smiled like a little child.
