Chapter 9 Cultivation Guidance (Part 2)

  What is it that has such an impact, and it's also a remarkable demon. The emperor sent her to be Qin Yifan's guard, it seems that he really needs protection, not for other reasons. Immersed in the fantasy of the land of cruelty, Lin Qiulü temporarily forgot that yesterday Qin Yifan saved himself using several different martial arts techniques.

  Facing such a harsh environment, Lin Qiulü didn't have any good solution for the time being and could only follow Qin Yifan's words. When she wanted to practice her skills, she would drive her horse tens of miles away. This also gave Lin Qiulü an additional task. Since she had to go out tens of miles to practice anyway, she might as well take care of the things needed at the inn where Qin Yifan was staying. Whenever something was needed, she could buy it in the county town and save the trouble of having those couriers come back and forth, wasting more time.

  Bai Bai wasted a night's time, and Qin Yifan didn't know what to say about this person who wouldn't listen. Here, it's estimated that no one can silently deal with Qin Yifan; anyone who uses martial arts or cultivation methods will suffer backlash. What kind of person needs protection?

  Almost half an afternoon was spent idly in the inn, and there were no passersby on the official road. It was very quiet. In the evening, Qin Yifan still went to Quan Yin Hu on the mountain as usual. This time, Lin Qiulü seemed to be performing a guardian's duty, closely following behind him without saying a word.

  Alas, she wants to follow then let her follow. Qin Yifan can't possibly drive her away either. Looking at Lin Qiulü's appearance, it seems like she is still a relatively competent bodyguard. In the afternoon when Qin Yifan was meditating, she carefully didn't disturb him and only followed him when he came out. It seems that back in the imperial palace, she also guarded the emperor like this. Of course, at that time, she could use some small tricks to avoid letting the emperor see her shadow. But here, it's not possible, she can only honestly follow without using any tricks. Only, if they really encounter danger, what should they do?

  This is Lin Qiulü's problem, not Qin Yifan's. If anyone is to blame, it can only be the Emperor himself for sending a guard here. Qin Yifan wouldn't bother with such troubles; his daily cultivation allows him to forget many worldly worries. Only when he returns to the inn and takes on the role of shopkeeper again does he regain a sense of being in the mortal world. I wonder if those immortals or cultivators choose to cultivate precisely because they can forget these troubles?

  Lin Qiulü didn't know what Qin Yifan was doing here, she just mechanically followed him. Qin Yifan had told her not to use her powers, but she didn't listen and instead caused a very awkward situation. Every time they met, Lin Qiulü didn't dare speak to Qin Yifan, and this had been going on for half an afternoon. Fortunately, Qin Yifan didn't object to her following him, which saved her a lot of trouble.

  There is a clear lake here, which is beyond Lin Qiulü's expectation. In the lush green forest, there is such a place that makes people feel relaxed and happy. Lin Qiulü was originally a woman who loved beauty and cleanliness very much, and she liked it even more. This scene made her worries about the ominous land fade away. Maybe when no one is around, she can come here to clean up thoroughly.

  In Lin Qiulü's astonished gaze, Qin Yifan took out a very exquisite fishing rod from the thatched hut by the lake and began to sit on the lakeside to fish. Lin Qiulü really couldn't have imagined that this young martial artist would also have such a leisurely and elegant demeanor. However, this also made her feel a little better in her heart. At least, the young man who had seen more than half of her body was literate and possessed some qualities of a recluse, which was far superior to those rough and unrefined people who knew nothing but killing.

  In an instant, Lin Qiulü was startled by her own subconscious thoughts. Does Qin Yifan know characters or not, does he have the temperament of a recluse, what does he want to do with her, and why did she have such an idea? For a moment, the embarrassing scene from last night appeared in Lin Qiulü's mind again, her face turned red, fortunately there was a light gauze covering her face, otherwise she didn't know how to face Qin Yifan.

  Qin Yifan didn't know that Lin Qiulü would have so many thoughts in her mind. He took out his fishing rod, just to put on a show in front of Lin Qiulü. After all, if Lin Qiulü was a cultivator, she would definitely eliminate the demon and protect the Tao when encountering this situation here. Currently, Qin Yifan didn't want them to succeed, having been competing with that old friend in the lake for so long, it seemed like he had already developed feelings for it, how could he let it be eliminated easily?

  Lin Qiulü sat with her face red and covered, not far away, watching Qin Yifan leisurely enjoying his fishing life in the evening. Such relaxation, such comfort, plus the exquisite surroundings, if it weren't for yesterday's injury, Lin Qiulü couldn't believe that this was actually a place of evil spirits. It seemed that even if it were a hidden mountain forest, it would be nothing more than this!

  While fishing, Qin Yifan did not forget to practice his skills. Anyway, he no longer cared about what kind of posture he used to practice. Waiting for the fish to bite was also a good way to kill time.

  Looking not far away, Qin Yifan even closed his eyes, waiting for the fish to take the bait. Lin Qiulü didn't think much of it, thinking that Qin Yifan was just enjoying the fishing process and wasn't concerned about the outcome, but rather looked like a kind-hearted person. He didn't look bad either, and got along well with those mountain people, very enthusiastic, not like those people at all. Strange, why did she think of these things again? What's wrong with her? Lin Qiulü covered her scalded face, which was hidden behind the veil, and felt a great disturbance in her heart.

  Estimated that in the past when Lin Qiulü was guarding Huang, she often watched him do things without saying a word. Until Qin Yifan finished his cultivation and got up after several weeks, Lin Qiulü didn't say a single sentence. Silently watching Qin Yifan, she herself didn't move either. Except for times of conflict when she couldn't temporarily take action, she was still a qualified guard.

  The mountain people didn't seem to find it strange that a veiled woman suddenly appeared beside their young master. Their master was able to get the county official to move them from their original place, and judging by the county official's sycophantic attitude towards him, they knew that Qin Yifan, this young master, wasn't an ordinary person. Having one more servant girl didn't matter. As for the veil, she must be too beautiful, afraid that these mountain people would unintentionally desecrate her.

  Qin Yifan didn't know what the mountain people were thinking, Lin Qiulü had seen many officials and nobles, but she hadn't had much contact with these simple and honest mountain people, nor did she know their thoughts. She just felt that these mountain people were very enthusiastic towards her, and she was also very pleased with this enthusiasm.
