My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1008 First Encounter

During the forty-third level of tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect found themselves in a modern urban environment. There are many high-rise buildings and flashing neon lights here. They are in a cozy shop called "Starry Sky Cafe". This cafe is decorated with lights that simulate the starry sky, creating a peaceful and romantic atmosphere, as if customers can feel the vastness and mystery of the universe while sipping coffee.

Senior Sister Ling Xue was wearing a simple and elegant dress, her hair was gently tied on top of her head, and a few casual strands of hair added a bit of softness. She stood behind the bar and greeted every customer who entered the store with a smile. There is an extraordinary quality in her eyes, as if she can understand the story in everyone's heart. As the female owner of the coffee shop, she is not only responsible for managing the daily operations of the store, but also ensuring that every customer can feel the warmth of home.

Junior Brother Zhou Xing is wearing clean work clothes. His techniques are skillful and precise. Every time he grinds coffee beans, pours milk froth, and mixes spices, it is like he is performing an exquisite magic practice. His love for coffee and pursuit of quality make the coffee he prepares always full of aroma and endless aftertaste. In this world of overcoming tribulations, his coffee skills are like his magic power, which can soothe people's souls and make them temporarily forget the troubles of the world.

The two people's daily life in the coffee shop is full of harmony and tacit understanding. Senior Sister Ling Xue handles ordering and customer service at the front desk, while Junior Brother Zhou Xing concentrates on making every cup of coffee in the backstage. Communication between them often does not require too many words, just a look or a gesture to understand each other's intentions and needs.

In this test of overcoming the tribulation, they not only have to face challenges from the outside world, but also learn how to survive and develop in modern society. Every day of operation is a test of their will and wisdom, but it is also an opportunity for growth and understanding. By running the coffee shop together, their cultivation has improved subtly, and their minds have become more tenacious and broad-minded.

As time went by, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing's roles in this tribulation became more and more natural. They began to enjoy this ordinary and real life, and at the same time, they were waiting for the arrival of the next level of tribulation and preparing for it. To meet new challenges.

These experiences will undoubtedly make their relationship stronger and lay a solid foundation for their future ascension.

Ling Xue responded with a smile. She felt the long-lost warmth in this home. Although everything here is completely different from her past, she can find a simple and pure happiness here.

In novels or games, the eighty-one tribulations that Senior Sister Lingxue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Haoqing Sect experienced together during their ascension are a typical plot of cultivating immortals. In the thirty-sixth level, they become a pair of bitter mandarin ducks who have to be separated due to family grievances. This setting adds complex emotional entanglements to the relationship between the two.

In this level, you can imagine that they are in an ancient Chinese-style environment, perhaps a quiet town surrounded by mountains, or perhaps a courtyard full of ancient trees. The following is a possible scenario description:

The sun shines through layers of clouds and mist, shining mottledly on the bluestone roads of this ancient town. Ling Xue was wearing a plain white dress with a light cyan ribbon tied around her waist. Her black hair fell down to her waist like a waterfall. She stood at the end of the bridge, looking at the gurgling water, with a trace of melancholy flashing in her eyes. Her family and Zhou Xing's family have had a generational hatred. If this secret love affair is exposed, it will definitely trigger the anger of both families.

Zhou Xingze is wearing a dark robe, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. His temperament is cold, yet gentle and elegant. He quietly came to Ling Xue's side. Their eyes met, but they each restrained their emotions for fear of being seen through the secrets in their hearts.

In the thirty-eighth difficulty of overcoming the tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect were transformed into a rural internet celebrity chef couple. In this fantasy, they live in a picturesque little village, surrounded by lush fields and a small river flowing with clear water.

Every morning, when the first ray of sunlight shines through the window lattice into their cozy little kitchen, Senior Sister Ling Xue will get up gently and start preparing breakfast. She wore a simple cotton apron, her long hair gently tied back, and a gentle smile on her face. Junior Brother Zhou Xing will be busy around her, helping to cut vegetables, light fires, and cook porridge. The two of them had a perfect understanding, as if they had been living like this for a long time.

Their small kitchen is filled with bottles and jars of home-grown vegetables and spices. Some homemade dried chili peppers and pickled vegetables hang on the wall, exuding an enticing aroma. In the corner of the kitchen, there is an old stone mill used to grind fresh tofu and soy milk.

Senior Sister Lingxue is good at cooking, and her skills are well-known in the village. Whenever there is a festival or market, she and Junior Brother Zhou Xing will introduce new dishes together, attracting people from all over the country to come and taste them. Their dishes are not only delicious, but also creative and often surprising.

During the day, they would work in the fields together and harvest fresh vegetables and fruits. In the afternoon, the two of them would rest under the shade of a tree, sip tea and chat, enjoying the quiet pastoral life. In the evening, they will be busy by the fire, preparing the delicacies to be sold the next day.

Although life is full of hardships, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing always smile and use their hands to create delicacies that warm the stomachs of the villagers and each other's hearts. In this difficult time, they not only have to face the challenges of the outside world, but also find true happiness and satisfaction in ordinary days. And this is an indispensable lesson on their journey to ascension.

Although they live in the same small town and drink from the same river, they feel like they are worlds apart. Every day, Ling Xue was responsible for taking care of the family medicine garden, while Zhou Xing practiced swordsmanship hard in the family sword pavilion. Occasionally, when the night falls and the moonlight shines like water, they will secretly meet in the depths of the deserted bamboo forest under the cover of night and confide their sorrows about separation.

However, such encounters are always short and dangerous. They must carefully hide their feelings for fear that if they accidentally reveal their flaws, they will not only plunge themselves into a place of eternal destruction, but also bring bloodshed to each other's families. .

On days like this, their eyes become more and more profound, and their words are full of cryptics and hints. Whenever they parted, they always looked at each other deeply, as if they wanted to carve each other's image into their hearts in preparation for long-lasting thoughts.

Ling Xue and Zhou Xing became two tomb robbers, and their daily work life was full of excitement and danger.

Every day, they would gather in a remote place and start their day's work. They wear black night clothes and have special face paint to avoid being recognized. They carry a variety of tools, such as shovels, hammers, ropes, etc., ready to deal with various situations.

Their job is to find ancient tombs and dig out the treasures inside. They would mark possible burial sites on a map and then explore them. Sometimes they would dig for days in a barren patch of land just to find the entrance to a tomb.

Once they find the ancient tomb, they will carefully open the door and enter the tomb. The tomb is full of various traps, such as hidden arrows, traps, mechanisms, etc. They need to deal with them carefully to avoid losing their lives. In the tomb, they will search for various treasures, such as gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, etc. They would pack the treasure into their backpacks and quickly leave the tomb.

Back home, they sort through the treasures and sell them to collectors or auction houses. They will use the money to buy better tools and equipment to better carry out the next tomb robbing operation.

There is an exquisite signboard hanging at the door of the store, which reads "Starry Sky Cafe" in colorful fonts. Whenever night falls, this signboard will emit a soft light, as if it really brings a starry sky to the world.

The interior decoration of the store is simple yet stylish, with dark blue and silver as the main tones. The walls are decorated with various constellation patterns, and the ceiling is designed to imitate the night sky, dotted with small twinkling lights like stars. Soft lighting and just the right music create a peaceful and warm atmosphere, making people feel a sense of peace and tranquility as soon as they enter the store.

As the female owner of the cafe, Ling Xue always wears decent professional attire. Her temperament is elegant and her smile is friendly, which always makes customers feel at home. She is busy in the store, not only receiving customers, but also handling various daily tasks, from financial management to staff training, she can handle it with ease.

Zhou Xingze is the coffee master in the store, and he has an almost obsessive love for coffee. His technique is skillful, and every time he grinds coffee beans and mixes coffee, it is like performing an exquisite artistic creation. The coffee he brews can always accurately meet the customer's taste, and he can even recommend or create the most suitable coffee based on the customer's mood and preferences.

After work, the two would also take a break in a corner of the coffee shop to exchange some cultivation experiences or daily interesting things. Ling Xue will share her understanding of business methods, while Zhou Xing will talk about his exploration of coffee art. Their conversations are always full of wisdom and laughter, making others envious of their tacit understanding and harmony.

Although they were in a difficult situation, they found their own peace and happiness in the small world of Starry Sky Cafe. Every day's work is not only a test of their cultivation, but also a bridge for their emotional communication, so that their journey to ascension is no longer lonely.

Although such work is full of danger and excitement, both Ling Xue and Zhou Xing enjoy it very much. They find this a challenge and a recognition of their abilities. They believe that as long as they persevere, they will be able to succeed.

In short, this description shows the love-hate relationship between the two characters in a difficult environment, and the sacrifices they have to make for the conflict between love and family. This kind of scene is a common romantic element in many traditional martial arts and immortality stories, and it is also a means of testing the protagonist's emotion and loyalty.

In the 39th level of the tribulation, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing were arranged to become a bus driver couple. Every morning, they get up early, wash up, put on neat work clothes, and welcome the new day.

Ling Xue is responsible for driving the bus, while Zhou Xing is responsible for selling tickets and taking care of passengers. During the busy morning rush hour, buses are packed with office workers and students, all rushing to their destinations. Ling Xue drove the bus, skillfully weaving through the bustling traffic, sometimes accelerating and sometimes decelerating, to ensure that passengers could arrive at the stop safely and on time.

Zhou Xingze was busy in the carriage, collecting fares from passengers and greeting everyone with a smile. He will patiently explain how to transfer to passengers who are unfamiliar with the route, and will also take the initiative to help the elderly and children find their seats. With his help, the atmosphere in the carriage became harmonious and harmonious, and the passengers also felt a sense of warmth.

During lunch break, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing would eat at a small restaurant near the bus station. They would exchange interesting stories about the day with each other and share each other's moods. The work in the afternoon was equally busy, but they all maintained full enthusiasm and provided high-quality services to passengers.

In the evening, when the last bus pulled out of the platform, Ling Xue and Zhou Xing finished their day's work. They will go home together, prepare dinner, and enjoy their own warm time. In this special tribulation level, they learned to support each other, grow together, and cherish each other's company even more.

Although this was just a small test in their ascension process, for Ling Xue and Zhou Xing, this experience strengthened their relationship with each other and made them understand the importance of responsibility and responsibility. In the next level of overcoming the tribulation, they will work together and move forward bravely until they succeed in ascension.

After breakfast, Zhou Xing returned to the house. There was sweat on his face, but there was a light of satisfaction in his eyes. He said to Ling Xue: "Today's work is done, we can go for a walk by the river." Ling Xue nodded in agreement, she knew that this was Zhou Xing's favorite way to relax.

The scenery along the river was peaceful and beautiful. The two sat side by side on the bank, watching the ripples on the water. Zhou Xing plucked a blade of grass and played a melodious flute sound. Ling Xue listened quietly, feeling inexplicably moved in her heart. This simple life, this ordinary fun, actually gave her an indescribable satisfaction.

As the sun set, the two went home together. After dinner, they sat around the fire, and their adoptive mother told ancient legends. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue listened, as if the heroes and adventures in those stories were right in front of them.

It was late at night, Ling Xue was lying on the bed, looking at the shadow of the fire reflected on the roof. She knew that all this was just a part of overcoming the tribulation, but this experience and this emotion would become precious memories in her heart. In this mortal trial, she not only learned how to be a real princess, but also learned how to be a compassionate and righteous person.

In the thirty-fifth stage of overcoming the tribulation, the identities of Ling Xue and Zhou Xing changed again. They became childhood sweethearts who grew up together in the orphanage. This difficult world is full of the hustle and bustle of modern cities, which is completely different from the environment they have experienced before.

In the forty-third trial of transcending tribulation, Senior Sister Ling Xue and Junior Brother Zhou Xing of the Hao Qing Sect found themselves in a space shining with gentle starlight.
