章 39: Brother Su, Let's Go Have a Good Time!
編集者: Dragon Boat Translation
"Shall we come back another day?"
Seeing the shopkeeper angrily slamming the table in the lobby, Zhou You hesitated and suggested to Wen Juntong, "The shopkeeper is angry... If we go in now, we might be affected."
"Are you kidding me? This is a rare opportunity! I don't know how long I'll have to wait if I miss today."
Wen Juntong didn't think about it and rejected Zhou You's suggestion. He said with a serious expression, "It's rare for my mother to go to the south to spend the winter. If I don't take the opportunity to go to the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion now, I can't come when they return home!"
Wen Juntong and Zhou You naturally did not come to look for Su Yan for any serious business. Wen Juntong had always been thinking about the cultivators and ladies of the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion. However, neither Wen Juntong nor Zhou You had ever set foot in the famous Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion.
One of them was not interested in girls, and his mind was filled with sightseeing and drawing beasts.
The other one was because of the family rules. Madam Wen's family had a background in the Beast Suppression Department, so there was a taboo against the Beast Cult's people opening a shop.
If it wasn't for Madam Wen's self-restraint, she wouldn't have beaten up the two of them on the street when she learned that the father and son went to the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion to enjoy their time with the girls.
Wen Juntong wanted to visit the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion while his parents were out.
However, the two of them did not know the rules. They wanted to find Su Yan, who opened a brothel at home, and ask Brother Su to lead the way.
Wen Juntong was impatient, but Zhou You did not dare to enter the door when he saw an angry aunt.
As a cultivator who had seen the world, he knew very well how terrifying Su Yan's aunt was. If he made her unhappy, he and Wen Juntong might be killed.
Therefore, Zhou You held Wen Juntong back tightly, preventing him from irritating Su Yan's aunt.
They were in a deadlock while Aunt was about to smack the wooden table open.
Su Yan, who had just returned from the Northern Territory of Xia Yu, caused trouble for both sides. A white figure suddenly appeared in the air. Su Yan, who was in his fox form, appeared silently and landed on the long table in the hall.
"Boom..."
The table was hit hard. The moment Su Yan landed on it, the long table could no longer support the impact of the fox's landing. The long table broke apart, with Su Yan as the center, causing the fox to fall.
"Sob..."
Su Yan let out a cry as he fell. He looked at the long table that he had crushed in shock.
"I crush the table?"
"You're finally back!"
Aunt pinched the back of Su Yan's neck and lifted him. She patted the dust off her body and said angrily, "You almost scared me to death when you disappeared for no reason. I can't give birth to one more fox for your mother. Next time, if you run around without informing me, I'll tie you up!"
Aunt was very angry. At first, everyone was confused and did not notice the words left by Sister Xi on Huayu's back. When they realized it, it was already evening, and it was almost time for the rental to end.
Aunt had been on tenterhooks for almost two hours. She was naturally very angry when she saw Su Yan come back mysteriously.
"Auntie, I…"
Seeing that his aunt was angry, Su Yan felt wronged and explained everything to his aunt.
He wanted to tell his aunt he was safe, but Sister Xi was walking fast. She had already walked out of the range of the thousand-mile voice transmission jade in just a few steps. Su Yan had no way to contact his aunt.
"Granny Fox said that a fox cub like me was the most suitable for warming up her hands and feet."
"Big Fox Granny… She took me hunting."
Su Yan wanted to talk about the moon rabbit, but Sister Xi had repeatedly warned him not to. Moon Rabbit was a very rare beast. As long as a moon rabbit could grow up, it would become an alchemy master.
They didn't even need to learn the pill formulas because they had inherited many pill formulas in their bloodline. As long as they grew older and stronger, the memories passed down through their bloodline would naturally awaken.
Legend had it that the goddesses of the Nine-Tailed Fox, the Three-Legged Golden Crow, and the Moon Rabbit Clan had the Immortal Elixir in their hands.
After consuming the Immortal Elixir, one's body would become immortal and nearly indestructible.
This was true. The recipe for the Immortality Medicine was stored in the moon rabbit's bloodline.
Therefore, if Su Yan didn't want to cause any trouble for himself, he had to insist that he had never seen a Moon Rabbit before. Otherwise, if others found out, he would be punished with a soul-searching technique.
Su Yan trusted his aunt but worried the walls might have ears.
Therefore, he lied and told his aunt that Sister Xi was chasing a moon rabbit, but she brought him to hunt in the snow and asked him to warm her hands and thighs.
As for the moon rabbit, Su Yan planned to tell his aunt about it when he was practicing the water element technique in the backyard.
"It's true that in Xia Yu, people used fragrant skin to warm their hands during the first snow of winter. However, it's luxurious to warm her hands with Su Yan."
Hua Yu, a native of Xiayu, nodded and confirmed the truth of Su Yan's words.
The upper class in Xia Yu liked to warm their hands with foxes during winter. After the first snow, they would hold a grand banquet. Each would bring their foxes to compete at the banquet to see whose fox was more beautiful.
Other than competing in whether the fox was beautiful, some would even bring their most beautiful servant girls to compete.
Using a nine-tailed fox cub to warm one's hands was very prestigious in Xia Yu.
It was like using Wu Sheng Emperor to warm your hands and feet.
"Pitiful little fox. Do you want to warm up?" Hua Yu stretched her arms and hugged, "Other bad women want to warm their hands with you, but I just want to warm your little paws."
Although she was asking, her hands didn't intend to ask. She had already held Su Yan's waist and was ready to hug and let him lie on her shoulder.
Jiao Nanwu raised his hand and grabbed Su Yan's tail. He looked at Hua Yu and his aunt stubbornly as if she was trying to tell them something.
"Wow… It was like a paradise!
Wen Juntong and Zhou You, squatting outside the door, looked at the little fox being carried by their aunt, held by Hua Yu, and pulled by Jiao Nanwu. Wen Juntong exclaimed.
His aunt was like a young girl, Jiao Nanwu was like a big sister, and Huayu was like a charming woman.
What kind of Western Paradise was this?
Wen Juntong was so envious that he wanted to go home and ask if his ancestors had fox blood. He wanted to be a fox too.
"Let's go! Let's go pick up Brother Su."
Wen Juntong felt that the atmosphere in the brothel was close to normal, so he wanted to go in and ask Brother Su to accompany him and Zhou You to the Ten Thousand Flower Pavilion to have fun.
When the time came, Mr. Wen would handle all the expenses. For this, he stole all of his New Year's money from last year and this year.
A total of ten catties of spirit stones was enough for one night!
