Chapter Thirty: The Maiden's Heart Wishes for Fresh Flowers, Collecting

  Zhao Xue slowly woke up and found that Lin Feng's figure was no longer beside her, but outside the stone house, there were loud shouts and cries.

  Wearing Lin Feng's clothes, Zhao Xue walked out of the stone house and saw Lin Feng standing on the stone platform outside, seriously practicing his tiger-shaped fist. His body was already covered in sweat, shining with a healthy glow under the autumn sun.

  Looking at Lin Feng's agile figure, Zhao Xue's small face showed a faint smile, and she sat down on the stone bench in front of the stone house, her clear eyes staring unblinkingly at Lin Feng on the stone slab.

  "Zhao Xue, are you awake?" Lin Feng asked while practicing his fist, "How is it? Are you still tired?"

  "I'm not tired anymore!" Zhao Xue said softly.

  "Are you hungry? If so, I'll make something for you to eat." Lin Feng said.

  "Not hungry yet!" Zhao Xue said cleverly, "Lin Feng brother, you continue practicing yours! Before the sun sets, it's the best time to practice Hu Xing Quan!"

  "Hmm!" Lin Feng nodded and ignored Zhao Xue, focusing on practicing his Tiger Form Fist. For him, time was extremely precious and couldn't be wasted.

  Zhao Xue sat quietly in front of the stone house, her scissors-like eyes constantly scanning Lin Feng's body.

  Her father was gone, and the whole world seemed to have lost its color. And Lin Feng brother was the only point of light in the dark night for her.

  Only when looking at him can Zhao Xue feel at ease and feel warmth...

  ……

  As dusk fell, Lin Feng also ended his day of cultivation.

  He had gone back to Hei Shi Town last time to bring some grain back, but when he arrived at Hei Shi Town, it had already become a ruin, so naturally he couldn't buy any food. Afterwards, he was busy avenging himself and didn't have the chance to buy grain either. So now inside the stone house, there is no more grain left.

  Fortunately, it's easy to get food here in the mountains. Lin Feng circled around the stone house in the thicket and caught two fat rabbits, also picking a large handful of fresh wild vegetables of various colors.

  Lin Feng cooked a large pot of wild vegetable soup, and then lit a bonfire on the stone platform. He set up an iron frame, cleaned two rabbits, sprinkled various seasonings, strung them on the iron frame, and started roasting them.

  All of this Lin Feng did with great familiarity, after all, since his mother left when he was eight years old, it had been Lin Feng who took care of his father.

  "Alright!" After finishing all that, Lin Feng sat down on the stone bench, smiling happily, "It'll be ready soon! Zhao Xue, if you're hungry, there's still some beef and flatbread left, you can have a snack to fill your stomach for now, but it's always best to eat fresh food."

  "I'm not hungry." Zhao Xue shook her head, her clear eyes staring at Lin Feng, her gaze flashing with admiration. "Lin Feng brother, you're really capable. In the future, whichever girl marries you will definitely be lucky!"

  "Just preparing food, what's the big deal." Lin Feng shook his head and said.

  Thinking of the girl in purple clothes, Lin Feng's heart was slightly burning again. It had been several days since then, but the feeling of her cool lips on his forehead still lingered in Lin Feng's memory.

  She is not an ordinary woman, she is Ye Zi, the eldest miss of Luoyun Sect. Only those with enough strength can stand in front of her and protect her. Preparing food is indeed not worth mentioning.

  "What's the use!" Zhao Xue said in a low voice, "Unfortunately, I don't have such good fortune..."

  "What are you talking nonsense about!" Lin Feng laughed and said, "You're my sister, after all!"

  "Oh!" Zhao Xue responded with a low bow of her head, but in her heart she thought, "She's not even your real sister..."

  "Haha! You little stinker, someone has already confessed to you! This little girl isn't bad either, fresh and tender, and can be considered a little beauty. Why don't you quickly take advantage of the situation and make your move?" The sly voice of Zhuang suddenly echoed in Lin Feng's mind.

  "Take down? Take down what?" Lin Feng transmitted in shock.

  "Good grief, do I have to teach you this sort of thing?!" Old Man Zhuang scolded with a smile, "You used to hug Xiao Yu's head, take off her clothes. She must have been half willing and half resisting, then you..."

  "Shut up!" Lin Feng's small face suddenly turned red, and he transmitted a message, "What nonsense are you talking about? She is my sister!"

  "Haha! You little stinker, what kind of sister is she to you? Men, trying something new and sneaking a taste is normal. I know you only like Ye Zi in your heart, but don't you want to try the taste of a woman? You little stinker, I'm telling you, once you've tried it, you'll be hooked and know what that wonderful feeling is!" Zhuang's face twisted into a lewd smile.

  "If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I'll throw this jade pendant away!" Lin Feng's face turned even redder as he transmitted his voice in anger.

  "Alright, alright, I won't say anything else! Can't I just drop it?" Zhuang Lao said with a huff. "I wasn't going to gain anything from this anyway, I just wanted to see a lively scene. What a pity, such a tender little girl, if someone else gets to taste her freshness in the future, you'll be the one regretting it!"

  "What else did you say?" Lin Feng was immediately annoyed. This old man is getting more and more unbearable to listen to.

  Zhuang Lao saw Lin Feng's true anger and immediately shut his mouth, not daring to speak. He had provoked this young man, and if he really threw away the jade pendant, he would be in danger.

  "Lin Feng, are you feeling hot? Why is your face so red?" Zhao Xue asked in puzzlement as she saw Lin Feng's face suddenly flush.

  "No, nothing." Lin Feng hastily said.

  "Let me see." Zhao Xue stretched out her hand and touched Lin Feng's face, feeling a bit hot. She hastily asked, "Are you sick? Are you uncomfortable somewhere? Is it serious?"

  Zhao Xue's small hands were delicate and white. Lin Feng usually didn't notice, but today being touched by her small hand gave him a strange feeling.

  Lin Feng hastily brushed off Zhao Xue's hand and shook his head, saying: "Really, it's nothing. Zhao Xue, the rabbit is almost burnt!"

  Zhao Xue turned around and saw two wild rabbits dripping with oil, emitting a strong fragrance, but without any signs of being overcooked. She couldn't help but wonder: "How is this possible?"

  "Haha! I was wrong." Lin Feng laughed dryly.

  At this time his complexion had returned to normal, he slightly bowed and moved a little further away from Zhao Xue, and his mind finally calmed down.

  From young to old, Zhao Xue was just a little sister and playmate to him. Today, being reminded by Zhuang Lao, Lin Feng only realized that this little sister had grown into a beautiful young girl.

  Beside the bonfire, Zhao Xue's skin was as white and tender as snow, with starry eyes and a delicate nose. A faint smile on her face revealed two small dimples. Her eyes shone like black grapes, and although she wore simple clothes, they couldn't conceal her natural beauty.

  Although she can't be compared with Ye Zi, Zhao Xue in front of her is absolutely a extremely beautiful girl.

  But in the past, Lin Feng had never noticed this point.

  No wonder, after all, Lin Feng has always been muddled about men and women, and it's only been a few days since he came to his senses.

  "Your complexion has improved again, what's going on?" Zhao Xue stretched out her small hand and pressed it against Lin Feng's face, exclaiming in surprise, "This is really strange!"

  Lin Feng gently pushed away Zhao Xue's hand and said softly: "Really nothing. Zhao Xue, you don't have to worry anymore!"

  "Lin Feng, ge?" Her hand was pushed away by Lin Feng once again. Zhao Xue's expression changed slightly as she bit her lip and asked, "What do you mean? Don't you like me anymore?"

  "No, Zhao Xue," Lin Feng said repeatedly, "I didn't mean that."

  "What do you mean!" Zhao Xue frowned and said discontentedly.

  Lin Feng let out a sigh and looked at Zhao Xue with a soft voice, saying: "I just realized now that my little sister Zhao Xue has grown up into a big girl!"

  "Hmph! You've only just realized? Zhao Xue's expression softened, and she wrinkled her small nose, saying with a pleased tone, "I've long been a big girl, but Lin Feng is still a blockhead, hehe!"

  "......" Lin Feng shook his head and sighed, "Good sister, you've grown up to be a big girl now, we can't be like before anymore!"

  "What's wrong?" Zhao Xueqi asked.

  "For example... holding your hand. For example... carrying you on my back!" Lin Feng said with a bitter smile.

  "I won't!" Zhao Xuejiao hummed, "I like holding your hand, I like you carrying me on your back, humph!"

  "Alright, alright, let's just drop it. Let's eat, let's eat!"

  ……

  The rabbit meat was roasted very fragrantly, Zhao Xue ate it very fragrantly too, but Lin Feng didn't have any appetite.

  Zhao Xue's sister is very beautiful, but he knows that in his heart, there can only be room for one person's shadow.

  Leaf purple!

  After finishing dinner, Lin Feng continued to practice his tiger-shaped fist, while Zhao Xue sat aside, quietly watching him. The subtle emotions hidden in Zhao Xue's beautiful eyes finally reached Lin Feng's heart, and all he could do was sigh.

  "Smelly brat, aren't you getting a little excited? Such a tender and lovely girl, it would be a pity to miss out on her!" Old Zhuang's voice echoed in Lin Feng's mind.

  "Get out!" Lin Feng's small face was tense, and he replied bluntly.

  "Haha! You'll regret this in the future." The old man smiled slyly and didn't say another word.

  ……

  Zhao Xue watched Lin Feng practice his fist, after a while, feeling bored and listless, she finally returned to the stone house and fell into a deep sleep. These past few days, she had also been exhausted, now that she was by Lin Feng's side, she could finally rest at ease.

  When he saw Zhao Xue enter the stone house, Lin Feng also let out a sigh of relief.

  After understanding Zhao Xue's intentions, this girl's gaze came over again, and for Lin Feng, it was as if he had gained weight. Lin Feng's moves also became full of loopholes, and the efficiency of absorbing the heaven and earth's original energy was greatly reduced.

  Now Zhao Xue has gone to rest, Lin Feng's heart has also returned to calmness, and the efficiency of absorbing yuan qi has also returned to normal.

  After midnight, Lin Feng also stopped practicing his fist and returned to the stone house. The fastest time to absorb yuanqi was still during the day. Although eager to recover his strength, necessary rest was still needed.

  "Lin Feng, brother!" Zhao Xue said softly from the shadows.

  "What's wrong, Zhao Xue?" Lin Feng replied, walking over lightly.

  "I want to marry you, hehe!" Zhao Xue said with a vague tone, a sweet smile appearing on her innocent little face.

  Lin Feng looked at Zhao Xue and saw that her eyes were still tightly closed, knowing that this girl was talking in her sleep, and couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

  "This problem is really a bit of a nuisance!" Lin Feng thought with a frown.

  He himself was just a young boy, and he didn't have any experience in dealing with such thorny issues. Zhao Xue's affection... to be honest, it made him feel a little happy, after all, someone liked him. But thinking of Ye Zi, Lin Feng felt a bit ashamed.

  "Lin Feng brother... Lin Feng brother..." Zhao Xue in the dream was still softly calling out, Lin Feng didn't dare to respond again and lay down on the ground in a corner of the stone house.

  "What to do?" Lin Feng worried about it and eventually slowly fell asleep...

  ……
