Carrying a Hoe to Cultivate

“There is nothing I could have done. I was transmigrated all of a sudden as well.” Xia Yi answered resignedly and urged the system to work, “179, report this situation to the main system and urge them to fix the bug.”

“Understood, I have already reported.” 179 felt the frustration.

After the meal, Xia Yi brought Meng Wan Zi and Qi Zhou to the old house. He told them seriously, “This is Mingie, um, Tin… Tin…”

“Tin Quan.” Meng Wan Zi reminded him.

“Right, this is the house where Tin Quan had lived. You will have to tolerate it and stay here.” Xia Yi said.

There is no other place even if you cannot tolerate it.

“There is nothing to tolerate. Our men from the Qi Shan Sect have been helped by you all these times. I am grateful for everything you have done.” Meng Wan Zi immediately replied.

Qi Zhou stood in the yard, eyeing the leaves on the ground and the vine on the walls. Then, in order not to stain his perfectly white shoes with dust, he moved a few steps.

“There is a well, you can fetch water from it to clean the house.” In view of the painful look of Qi Zhou, he suggested, “But you will have to do it on your own, we do not have servants here.”

Seeing Qi Zhou’s sight fell on him in discontent, Xia Yi added, “I was transported to Qi Shan by mistake, I am not really a man from your sect.”

Qi Zhou only nodded with twitched lips, then he looked at Xia Yi’s forehead, “You have a red spot too? I have found that there was a red spot on my forehead and I am suspecting this is caused by some miasma.”

Xia Yi halted for a short while. He replied after thinking, “Don’t worry, you are healthy. There is no problem.”

“What does this red spot mean? Do I have it because I am a cultivator?” Qi Zhou questioned closely.

“This may mean that you are special.” Xia Yi took a look at Qi Zhou, this is true.

Considering the fact that Qi Zhou would not stay here for long and would be transmigrated back shortly, Xia Yi did not feel like he had to explain too clearly which could stress him out.

As if he understood but without feeling like it, Qi Zhou nodded. He could put these behind him as long as his life was not in danger.

After settling the two down, Xia Yi left.

At night, Gu Wen Zhu sat down at the side of the bed to sew some winter clothes. Firstly, he took out a roll of cloth which he bought from the city a few days ago, then he hung the tape measure around his neck, and started to cut according to Xia Yi’s size.

Xia Yi lay on the bed with his head on top of the blanket. As time went by, he again dozed off while staring at Gu Wen Zhu’s face.

The candlelight veiled a layer of soft light for Gu Wen Zhu, softening his sharp features. He pulled his thin lips inwards a little, forming an elegant curve. His straight eyebrows slanted upwards towards his temples. His eyelashes pointing downwards twitched slightly, and so were Xia Yi’s fingers, suppressing his urge to touch them.

“179, I have been wanting to do something bad. We have been in love for a long time, and we have been engaged, I think we can say that he is mine now. It is about time.” Xia Yi was ready to do something.

“I had been a virgin in my home world. I have had enough.” Xia Yi buried his head in the pillow and rolled in the bed, making Gu Wen Zhu glare at him a few times resignedly.

“What are you planning?” 179 was alerted, “You don’t even want to do your missions anymore. Do you want your life to be ruined by this fox?”

“There is no contradiction between doing missions and being a virgin, right? Do you have missions that require the pee of a virgin or something?” Xia Yi was annoyed, “You are just a jealous system.”

Gu Wen Zhu only saw Xia Yi rolled around with the pillow in his arms, making his hair a mess with a few strands of hair standing on his head. Then he laughed like an idiot when he thought of something, and he used the pillow to cover his face with legs kicking wildly. Then he abruptly looked angry a moment later.

In those round almond eyes, there was sometimes annoyance and sometimes joy. Xia Yi was very expressive with his face.

Gu Wen Zhu could not hold off his chuckle, he put down the needle and thread, patting Xia Yi’s head, “What’s on your mind?”

His voice was husky like the sound of a cello.

What am I thinking? I am figuring out how to devour you.

“179, if the number of petals turns out to be odd, I will do my missions straightly, not even resting on the day we married. If it turns out to be even, then tonight I will… Heeheehee.” Xia Yi extended his hand to pick a golden zinnia out from the pottery vase on the cabinet at the side of the bed.

He found these pretty flowers blooming when he passed the road near the farmland, so he picked a bunch.

“Odd, even, odd, even…” Counting intensely, 179 watched Xia Yi slowly ripping the petals.

“Ha!” 179 burst out a laughter in surprise.

There was only one petal left on the stem, about to fall.

“It’s odd. Hahaha, it’s odd. Host, quickly go to sleep now, you have to get up early tomorrow morning to do the missions.” System was extremely happy.

“Even.” Xia Yi ripped the last petal with an emotionless face. “I have to start acting. You need to block yourself off. If you dare to even take a peek, I will report you.”

“You, you cheated.” 179 yelled nervously, full of shock and anger.

“How about it?” Xia Yi raised his head with a cold expression. “Aren’t you systems doing that to me all the time?”

179 could not talk back and did not make a sound. He could only speak in rage after a while, “I am going to watch a movie now, if you interrupt me, I will turn on the sound in your head.” After saying so, there was no more response.

“179, 179.” Xia Yi called repeatedly, he was afraid System would jump out suddenly just like last time when he was in the middle of kissing Gu Wen Zhu.

“179, I think I am transmigrating.”

“179, Lady Li is here.”

He tried a few more times, then was finally fully sure that the system had blocked himself out, and so Xia Yi let his guard down.

Then he began his move silently.

First, he made Kirin, who was biting its sandbag by the bed, go back to its bed. He could not let it watch live all the way at the side of the bed.

Kirin was merrily playing and got kicked out suddenly, so he looked at Xia Yi with round eyes appealingly.

“Good boy, if this goes well, papa is going to stew you a big piece of bone tomorrow.” Xia Yi talked to Kirin in a low voice and pulled it out at the same time.

It was a good thing that Kirin was obedient. Although it did not want to go, it did not fight back either, and just went back to its bed.

Next, close the door, close the windows, close the curtains.

At last, sit beside Gu Wen Zhu, and discreetly undo one button.

Looking down, not enough.

Undoing two more, showing his sharp neckline and a big area of his fair skin.

Then he moved to lean on Gu Wen Zhu’s shoulder.

“What’s going on? Are you cold?” Gu Wen Zhu sensed that Xia Yi was leaning closer, so he said gently. His voice sounded as gentle as silk brushing on one’s ears.

“Not cold, but hot.” Xia Yi lowered his voice and responded, his breath touching Gu Wen Zhu’s neck.

Upon finishing his sentence, he leaned even nearer to him, closing up even more. His pair of hands hugging Gu Wen Zhu’s waist.

“Hm? Zhu, now I see a birthmark behind your ear.” Xia Yi said in astonishment and touched it with his hands.

That birthmark was in the shape of a teardrop with a slight blue color, landing right behind Gu Wen Zhu’s ear. If the angle was not just, others could not have seen it.

Gu Wen Zhu’s ear had been touched by Xia Yi’s warm fingers, making him involuntarily quivered. His hand stopped sewing and held its position in midair.

Then he turned his head to look at Xia Yi.

As soon as he saw him, he instantly held his breath. A storm was roaring behind his seemingly calm eyes, deep and dark. Gu Wen Zhu’s expression had become hard to read.

“What? Keep going.” Xia Yi pretended to not know a thing, he looked at the cloth in Gu Wen Zhu’s hands innocently, he even used a finger to poke it. His finger followed the silhouette up and sluggishly slid its way to the back of Gu Wen Zhu’s hand.

His soft fingertip stopped and caressed, with light touch, the back of Gu Wen Zhu’s nervous fist which was squeezing hard.

Gu Wen Zhu swallowed with difficulty, his Adam’s apple moving along.

The stillness filled the room, only the sparkling burning sounds of the candlelight and the heavy breath of Gu Wen Zhu’s could be heard. Xia Yi seemed calm, his eyes were as if a silent lake in autumn with innocence and naiveness, but he was actually experiencing a restless tempest inside.

Ahhh, what do I do now? Push him down?

Can he not stare at me like that, I can’t hang on anymore. 

If he is not pushing me down I am pushing him down!

Gu Wen Zhu opened his mouth to speak, with a certain hoarseness, “Yi, button your shirt.”

“No, it’s hot…” Xia Yi murmured, then he touched Gu Wen Zhu’s heated face with his hand.

Trying to contain himself, Gu Wen Zhu closed his eyes and turned his head to the side. The blue veins on his forehead were shown. His fingers were pinching so hard that the knuckles were turning white. He squeezed out a few words with hardship between his teeth, “Yi, we have not married yet, we can’t.”

You are sewing your dowry, the furniture is done, the date has been picked, the helpers for the wedding banquet have been gathered from the village, you are saying that we have not married yet?

Seems like I have to force him.

I am all out.

If the hill does not come to me, I will raze the hill and turn it into farmland.

Xia Yi was agitated and decided to go all out, “Foo!” He blew out the candlelight and pounced towards Gu Wen Zhu…

In the dark, the clothes rubbed each other and made rustling noises. There were also crashing sounds created by the tea table being knocked off…

With a clattering sound, the flintstone had been tickled, and the room lit up.

Gu Wen Zhu, disheveled, tried his best to light up the candle on the table. He repeated with an unsteady voice, “Yi, calm down, I can’t treat you like this…”

“Foo!” The rekindled candlelight had been blown out once again, Xia Yi’s exasperated voice ringing at the same time, “There is no escape to this.”

“Yi, Yi, don’t…”

“Shut up.”

In the middle of the night, the village fell in silence, only the sounds of the insects in autumn and the barks of the dogs could be heard.

The clattering sound rang again with the flintstone being tickled, light as well as the quivering crying voice of Xia Yi came from a house in one of the yards in the village, “Zhu, no more, no more.”

“Foo!” The light was extinguished, the manly husky voice of Gu Wen Zhu’s echoed, “Again, again babe.”

Kirin felt that this night was not easy to endure, there was always noise interrupting his sleep.

There had been strange activities in the house, the candlelight had been on and off, really annoying.
