Chapter 69: Eunuch Wei Invites You to Dinner! Cause and Effect!
"That's all in the past..."
Eunuch Wei blushed!
Chen Fan smiled slightly.
He coughed once, his hands behind his back, and then returned to the courtyard.
Seeing this, Eunuch Wei didn't say anything more.
He rolled up his sleeves and began to work in front of the earthen stove.
Curious, Chen Fan went up to take a look and was almost startled.
After grabbing a duck, Eunuch Wei started boiling water in an iron pot to stew it without even plucking its feathers.
Unpeeled potatoes are thrown directly into the pot to cook without even being washed.
"You're... cooking?" Chen Fan exclaimed in shock!
"Yes, that's what we usually eat at home," said Eunuch Wei, wiping the sweat from his brow.
"Father-in-law, please wait a moment, it will be ready soon!"
Chen Fan shook his head slightly.
He glanced at the mixed stew in the iron pot, then turned and slipped away...
……
Five days have passed in the blink of an eye.
As autumn approaches, the leaves on the leaves in the palace are beginning to turn yellow!
But the wind that blew in still carried a wisp of heat!
Xiao Wu, who was lying on the table, glanced at the scene in the courtyard and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Your Highness, it's getting late, wouldn't you like to rest?"
Xiao Chenzi, who came to greet him, had a big smile on his face and was holding a piece of leather in his hand.
Xiao Wu shook his head slightly.
He picked up a book and said softly:
"Go to sleep, I'm going to study by lamplight."
"Yes... Your Highness!" Little Chenzi obediently left.
After everyone left, the library returned to silence.
Xiao Wu, who was flipping through the book, also had a furrowed brow.
I've been thinking about this for five days already!
Is the old eunuch really not coming?
Could it be that he's afraid I'll reveal his existence?
Xiao Wu sighed, his words carrying a weight.
Just as he was about to continue reading and stop thinking about it,
But then Xiao Chenzi, who was sleeping against the door, tilted his head to the side and started snoring.
This surprised Xiao Wu, who then smiled.
A long shadow appeared outside the gate.
The next second, Chen Fan, who hadn't been to the library for a long time, arrived!
With a smile on his face, he glanced at Xiao Wu and squinted, saying:
"When reading, one should concentrate and not be distracted..."
"Yes, Father-in-law." Xiao Wu nodded obediently and quickly focused on reading.
Chen Fan didn't say anything more.
Upon arriving at the library, he found a table, sat down, and began to read.
During these five days.
Chen Fan spends his days either feeding horses and cats or practicing his daily cultivation.
The medicinal herbs have recently ripened, and he helped with the harvest!
As the spiritual energy within his body grew increasingly abundant, Chen Fan felt he was about to break through to the Qi Refining Realm!
But he just couldn't break through that final step.
There was nothing they could do.
Chen Fan decided to read the book anyway.
However, after watching for about an hour...
His heart still couldn't find peace.
Chen Fan could no longer experience that feeling of breaking through through reading.
In his anxiety, he put down the book.
"Father-in-law, are you leaving?" Xiao Wu said, standing up upon seeing this.
"Is this what you wanted to ask?" Chen Fan said with a smile.
"That's not it..." Xiao Wu said.
"Father-in-law, are you a celestial master?"
"Why do you ask that?" Chen Fan asked, squinting.
"Because I think you are more capable than Commander Qinglong," Xiao Wu said truthfully.
"He is the strongest person in the palace; only the Immortal Master can surpass him!"
Chen Fan neither refuted nor admitted it.
Looking at the innocent and naive fourteenth prince before him, for some reason his heart suddenly calmed down!
"Father-in-law, can you teach me... how to cultivate immortality?" Xiao Wu asked again.
"I want to become stronger! As strong as you!"
Cultivation?
Chen Fan originally intended to refuse outright.
But looking at Xiao Wu's sincere little face, he hesitated!
Cultivating immortality emphasizes cause and effect!
If Chen Fan agrees today, he will have sown the seeds of his own destruction.
Then he will most likely face consequences in the future.
Hesitation.
But Xiao Wu immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying:
"Father-in-law, please accept Xiao Wu as your disciple! I'm willing to become your apprentice!"
After saying this, Xiao Wu kowtowed three times.
A touch of red appeared on his fair forehead!
That's it!
Chen Fan sighed inwardly!
This kid was there when he broke through to the half-step Qi Refining stage.
If there were a cause and effect, it would have been resolved long ago!
Chen Fan, who had never taken on an apprentice before, smiled and said:
"Our family has never taken on apprentices... Forget about becoming an apprentice. How about this, we'll teach you some basics. If you're destined for it... then that's your good fortune, how about it?"
"Thank you, Master!" Xiao Wu said excitedly, his face full of joy.
Chen Fan shook his head inwardly.
I thought to myself that this little guy is clever and knows how to seize opportunities; he will surely be extraordinary in the future.
Too lazy to think too much, he began to teach him step by step, starting with the early stages of Changchun Gong.
Xiao Wu was also in high spirits.
Even though he had never been exposed to these things before, he found learning them quite enjoyable.
Under Chen Fan's careful guidance, Xiao Wu quickly entered a meditative state.
This is a step that is not found in the Changchun Gong practiced in the imperial palace.
Chen Fan also put in a lot of effort when he first learned this.
But Xiao Wu was exceptionally gifted, and he accomplished it in just two hours.
Chen Fan smiled in surprise.
They stood by and waited silently.
About half an hour later, Xiao Wu awoke from his first meditation.
"Master...this feeling is truly wondrous...is this what cultivation is like...?"
Chen Fan nodded.
With a smile playing on his lips, he stood up and said:
"It's getting late, we have to go now. Remember the incantation and practice it. Whether you succeed depends on your own destiny!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Fan vanished in a blur.
"Yes... Master!" Xiao Wu's eyes gleamed, his little face full of excitement.
After watching his master leave, he continued to sit cross-legged and meditate...
……
Leave the library.
Chen Fan followed the path to the Imperial Garden.
On his way back, he was thinking about a question.
That is cause and effect.
Chen Fan remembered hearing the word "cause and effect" for the first time from Princess Yuanping.
At that time, he was still a eunuch who raised horses, so he naturally didn't understand what cause and effect were.
However, as Chen Fan was about to enter the Qi Refining Realm, he gradually came to understand some things!
Princess Yuanping gifted Chen Fan a gold bowl to settle a karmic debt from their childhood experience of riding horses.
By sheer chance, the golden bowl changed his fate, and this was the beginning of another cause.
As for when this fruit will ripen, Chen Fan doesn't know.
Secondly, there's Xiao Dengzi, Eunuch Wei, Xiao Hua, Hei Feng, including Emperor Jianwen and Xiao Wu—all of these are his own doing.
Regardless of the reason why these people came into contact with Chen Fan, there is always a cause and an effect in their relationships.
Perhaps the fruit has not yet arrived, but it is always there!
Chen Fan was particularly struck by Xiao Wu's act of becoming his disciple tonight.
"cause and effect…"
He muttered to himself as if he understood something, but he still felt that something was missing.
With this feeling.
Chen Fan returned to the Imperial Stables.
It was probably close to 3:45 AM when he went straight to the horse stable.
"Godfather, you're here... Hand over to Little Stool, you should go back and rest!"
As soon as Chen Fan arrived at the horse pen, he saw Xiao Deng feeding the horses.
This startled him, and his head went blank for a moment!
Chen Fan saved Xiao Dengzi's life; that's the reason.
The little stool served him with gratitude; this is the result!
This is the cycle of cause and effect!
Chen Fan understood!
In that instant, his spiritual power surged rapidly, and he was about to step into the Qi Refining Realm...
