Chapter 7 Desire is hard to satisfy
As the saying goes, no matter how delicious the food is, you will get tired of it if you eat it every day.
Yu Xian once thought that this was a high-end Versailles, which was nonsense.
Ma De, a well-fed man doesn’t know how hungry a hungry man is. If the goddess is in his arms, he will never be tired of it all his life.
But now, all he can say is - tired of it.
Just like a favorite toy, you couldn't put it down when you first bought it, but soon after it was thrown in the corner to gather dust, and you won't notice it again for a long time.
Pure desire without the blessing of love comes fiercely and goes quietly.
In addition, Yulan started the penance mode in order to obtain status as soon as possible.
Although she was still obedient to him, even to compensate him,
But after all, her energy was limited. After a large part of it was taken away from her practice, it would be difficult for her to think hard every day and change her tricks to give him temptation and freshness as before.
This is not a good sign.
Yulan is his only designated Taoist companion at this stage.
His sense of magnolia determines the quality of his dual cultivation.
He began to look for solutions to the problem, and took the initiative to reduce his daily contact with Yulan on the pretext of concentrating on practice, retaining some freshness between them.
But human desire is like a boulder rolling down a mountain. Once it starts, it cannot be stopped.
Yu Xian has obtained physical satisfaction, but the threshold of mental desire has been raised. Once it cannot be satisfied, he will think about getting it from others instead of self-restraint.
Because his relationship with Yulan is not equal, when the cost of a person's mistake is zero, his betrayal seems reasonable.
Just when Yu Xian extended his claws to Chen Yi beside him and saw the tears flashing in her eyes, he suddenly woke up.
He almost became a puppet of desire!
Of course, he didn't feel much guilt about sleeping with Chen Yi. He slept early and late anyway.
But he did not allow desire to make him lose his reason and proper judgment.
So after more than two months of absurd life.
Yu Xian walked out of the palace and looked at the noisy and prosperous world outside the palace. He began to try to find something that could make him happy and moved.
…
Changning County has a superior geographical environment and is home to many water systems, the most famous of which is Cangjiang River.
There is a tributary of the Cangjiang River in Changning City, named Changning River.
Changning River section.
A awning boat rowed by.
At the stern of the boat is a boatman wearing a bamboo hat and paddling an oar. Under the canopy is a scholar in blue shirt and a cool and pretty maid.
It was Yu Xian and Chen Yi.
Yu Xian swaggered and leaned behind the boat window. He saw the vastness of the river, the rippling water, and the natural beauty of heaven and earth. His body and mind were washed away, and he couldn't help but sigh:
"After being in a cage for a long time, you can return to nature and go out for a walk when you have nothing to do. It is really good for your physical and mental health. The original worries will disappear with the wind."
"Boatman, please slow down a little, I want to go fishing."
"Okay, sir."
The boatman answered loudly, slowed down his movements, and let the river water carry the boat forward slowly.
Bow deck.
Yu Xian moved out a chair and sat down, threw out the fishing rod, watched the fishing line drop into the water, and the float swayed with the current, and his heart slowly calmed down.
"Want to come together?"
Yu Xian handed Chen Yi a fishing rod.
Chen Yi took it silently, staring at the water, not daring to look at Yu Xian.
"I'm sorry, I thought I would eat you at an ambiguous time, rather than possess you roughly."
Yu Xian's eyes fell on the white mist on the water in the distance. The sound was ethereal, like the fog in the distance that might dissipate at any time.
"If you have any requests, you can make them, just as a small compensation for my recklessness this time."
Chen Yi couldn't help but feel nervous, shook his head expressionlessly and said:
"Now that I'm in your yard, I'm already yours. You're just taking what belongs to you. You don't owe me anything."
She had already been mentally prepared for the prince to send her close to Yu Xian.
Moreover, Yu Xian is handsome, powerful, and humorous. It is already a good thing for her that she can serve him instead of serving officials who are fat-minded or older than her grandfather like other sisters. Lucky.
But what she couldn't accept was that Yu Xian never looked for her again after the first time.
Obviously his needs are so great.
Chen Yi secretly gritted her teeth and sulked, was she worse than Yu Lan?
"I'm always asked to do something to satisfy my hypocritical conscience."
Yu Xian smiled lightly and said with a bit of self-deprecation:
"And I advise you to seize the opportunity, because my conscience is often lost, and I don't know when it will appear again."
Hearing this, Chen Yi's eyes really showed struggle.
This may be an opportunity for her, but it may also be a trial.
For a while.
I saw a bit more determination in her eyes, and she said to Yu Xian very seriously:
"I want to practice, practice like Yulan!"
Only by becoming a legendary immortal cultivator can she gain the freedom she wants.
Yu Xian was stunned and said in surprise: "I thought you would ask me to save your brother."
"I……"
Yu Xian's words flashed through Chen Yi's mind like a bolt of lightning. Her face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes showed despair.
He found it!
Just as she was about to explain something, she was interrupted by Yu Xian's seemingly casual wave.
"But this is good, otherwise I would really hesitate whether to regret it or not. After all, I am quite comfortable in the palace now.
After returning home, you can practice Changchun Gong with Yulan, but I won't give you much help, you can only rely on yourself. "
Chen Yi bit his lips and nodded silently.
"I know."
"Now that you have accepted my compensation, you can no longer be cold to me. Come on, smile."
Yu Xian hugged Chen Yi's shoulders and sat down on his lap, his mouth was smug and his hands moved down dishonestly.
Although experiments have proven that practicing dual cultivation with a non-Taoist partner cannot bring him any cultivation points, it can bring him happiness.
Nowadays, his interest in Magnolia has decreased, and his cultivation has greatly increased, and with the help of Doctor Huang's secret recipe, he is no longer the empty-handed young man who was short of money in the past.
Adding Chen Yi is not a problem.
Chen Yi seemed to be able to feel the warmth of his big hands through his clothes. His face turned red with embarrassment and he resisted in a low voice.
"Don't, don't be here."
"My dear, come closer, I want to touch your heart."
Yu Xian used one hand to pick up the girl, and the other hand was not idle. As soon as he picked up the fishing rod, a big bright red carp jumped onto the river.
"Come on you!"
"Boatman, do you have a stove? I want to eat grilled fish."
Yu Xian shouted to the back.
"Yes sir!"
The boatman was a discerning man. When he saw the guest trying to pick up a girl, he was not empty-handed. He immediately came from behind the boat to wait on him, unhooked the big carp and threw it into the fish basket tied to the side of the boat. He asked by the way:
"Uncle, I'm pretty good at grilling fish. Do you want me to grill it freshly for you?"
"It seems I'm in for a treat today, and I'm about to taste the boatman's craftsmanship."
Yu Xian petted the girl beside him, who was sitting cautiously in his arms like a cat, and responded with a smile.
But it seems his luck ran out for the first time.
In the next half hour, he only caught a few small river fish he didn't recognize, and he was no longer interested.
It happened that the boatman had grilled the fish.
He and Chen Yi each shared half of the fish. It tasted pretty good, mainly because it was fresh enough and the fish had a slight sweetness.
So he returned after being exhausted.
