Chapter 27:

The next day when Cheng Qian woke up, he felt like he had almost perished last night. He opened his eyes only to see Han Yuan by his bedside, looking at him nervously as though he was dying.

Cheng Qian took no notice of him as he crawled out of bed and began to wash and rinse.

Han Yuan just acted like a big Pekinese dog that had caused trouble, following Cheng Qian wherever he went. Finally, Cheng Qian coldly told him: "Scram."

Han Yuan pocketed his pride and said flatteringly, "Little Senior Brother..."

Cheng Qian looked frosty. "I will not report to Master, alright? Get lost! Or I'll tell Master right now."

Han Yuan ran away quickly with his tail between his legs.

Cheng Qian wiped his face dry. He had his own deliberations—from what first senior brother said, Master had already learned from Wen Ya that the so-called Jiang Peng had also arrived here. As a result, he wouldn't report what happened last night to Master; it might alert him to what they were planning to do. If so, it would be more difficult for them to stalk Master.

Upon walking out of his cottage, Cheng Qian noticed first senior brother expressing his disdain for the food in the inn, then proceeding to ask a Taoist child to prepare better food for him, in Wen Ya Zhenren's presence.

Han Yuan clearly didn't learn his lesson from last night's fearful experience. He jabbered on and on to first senior brother, expressing his wish to hang out.

First senior brother used a bunch of excuses, like he had a stiff neck because of the hard pillow, implying that he didn't feel like moving around.

Yan Zhengming also refused to get on his carriage again because of junior sister's urine.

Cheng Qian felt terrible all over his body and was in a bad mood. So when he saw his clamorous martial brothers, he immediately found a way to relieve his anger as he sneered, "You can have Puddle wash your cushion."

With that, he lifted his finger, and in the direction he pointed, little junior sister Puddle had climbed into first senior brother's carriage again and was stuffing the cushion on which she had peed yesterday into her mouth. Her innocent eyes were blinking, and a big smile was hanging on her face.

And as she hadn't grown a full set of teeth yet, saliva was spilling out of her mouth.

It seemed that Cheng Qian feared that first senior brother wouldn't feel bad, as he gave him another verbal stab. "Look: junior sister has washed your cushion with her drool."

Yan Zhengming looked as though he was going to kill his junior sister and then kill himself.

Anyway, the cottage was definitely not a place to stay, and neither was the carriage. Here was miles away from Fuyao Mountain. Yan Zhengming raised his eyes heavenward, feeling sad that there wasn't even a shelter for him in this vast world.

But soon his master saved him from his sadness.

"There isn't morning class today; you can all go out to have fun in the morning. In the afternoon, we shall set out for the Azure Dragon Island on the boat."

Han Yuan cheered for that and looked eagerly at his master, saying, "Master, I heard there's another fair today."

"Didn't I give you a pouch of money yesterday?" Muchun Zhenre said, exasperated. But he was defeated by Han Yuan's eager expression, so he took a pouch out of his sleeve and exhorted his apprentice like a miser. "Be careful with your money and use it wisely."
