Brother Xie, he is too popular. What should I do?

Chapter 167 Zhao Li

The room was filled with mist, and the man was half leaning against the pool.

The pool here is not much different from a hot spring pool.

They are all steaming and bubbling.

The difference is that there is some unknown golden transparent substance flowing in the pool, and the overall pool water appears golden.

The man was wearing a loose black yukata, revealing most of his chest, and was soaking in the golden pool so carefree.

Xie Yunhe could still see a drop of water sliding down from the man's forehead, all the way to his Adam's apple, then across his chest, and finally disappearing under the faintly visible abdominal muscles.

An inexplicable thought flashed through his mind. If Senior Sister Ling saw this, she would angrily scold this person for being immoral.

This guy has a really good figure, with broad shoulders, narrow hips, long legs, and abdominal muscles.

This must be a handsome guy!

But when you look up, you will dismiss this idea.

It was a dull and ordinary face. His eyes were bright and his facial features were good-looking when taken individually, but when put together on this person's face, you would think he looked plain.

In short, it's just the face of an ordinary person.

If he covers his face, he can be considered a handsome guy with an aura. If he shows his face, he is just an ordinary passerby.

When this ordinary guy saw Xie Yunhe coming out from behind the screen, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The hand that was trying to recall the sword once again placed itself on the edge of the pool.

He blinked and shifted into a more relaxed position.

"I think... what you said makes some sense, brother."

Xie Yunhe was surprised. Did this person agree?

Just now he thought it would take a lot of talking to succeed.

This brother is so open-minded. He is actually a good person who can understand other people's difficulties.

"My surname is Zhao, and my given name is Li. What is your name, fellow Taoist?"

Zhao Li picked up a pot of wine floating in the water and took a sip, then asked Xie Yunhe lazily.

Only then did Xie Yunhe discover that the man had placed a plate in the pool with a wine bottle on it.

These days are so comfortable.

Do you remember that this is in a secret realm?

"My name is Xie Yunhe, so I'll trouble you, Brother Zhao."

Xie Yunhe bowed to Zhao Li.

Don't hit someone who smiles. Although this fellow Daoist Zhao was quite fierce at the beginning, he was able to give up half of the pool. Xie Yunhe decided to selectively forget the unpleasant incident.

"There are clothes prepared by the secret realm over there. You can change into them before going into the pool, otherwise the temperature will burn you to death."

Zhao Li saw that Xie Yunhe obviously didn't know much about the environment here, so he kindly reminded him.

He pointed to a small three-sided screen at the back.

And added:

"This piece of clothing is equivalent to half a magical tool. You can take it away, but each person can only take one piece."

Xie Yunhe walked behind the small screen and saw that there was indeed a simple white robe placed on the stool.

He picked up his robe and shook it.

The long white robe is stretched out, with a simple style, and really looks like a bathrobe.

Xie Yunhe thought, why not just wear this as a swimsuit for the immortal world?

Fortunately, it was not what he imagined, soaking in the pool shirtless.

No wonder the other monks didn't seem to resist.

There is a small screen blocking the view on three sides.

Xie Yunhe placed the bird's nest in his hand on the stool where the bathrobe was originally placed.

Then she quickly took off her clothes and put on the white bathrobe.

Smooth the collar and tie the belt.

Take Fireball and his nest.

Just came out from behind the screen.

First, he placed the bird's nest beside the pond, and then Xie Yunhe went into the pond.

The water fell opposite Zhao Lizheng.

The golden water soaked over his ankles and finally soaked most of Xie Yunhe's body. The pool was quite deep.

Xie Yunhe's white bathrobe flashed with light, and the unknown golden substance in the water rushed towards him.

Then the golden substance merged into his skin and flowed into his tendons and veins, silently tempering his flesh and strengthening his tendons.

There is a warm feeling.

Then this warm feeling gradually deepened.

Something is wrong. Why is the water in the pool getting hotter?

Xie Yunhe began to sweat on his head.

Being heated.

If this temperature continues, he will be cooked.

He secretly glanced at Zhao Li on the opposite side, and the other party was in much better condition than him.

The pool is so hot, how do the other monks hold on?

Xie Yunhe noticed that Zhao Li was sitting at this time. There was a small platform halfway up the pool.

Appearing in the pool, it looks like a place for people to sit.

Xie Yunhe glanced at the pool and found a place to sit like this on his side.

There are two places to sit in this pool, which should be used for monks to rest.

Xie Yunhe imitated Zhao Li's actions, swam to the edge of the small platform and sat on it.

Once he sat down, half of his body was exposed to the water and came into contact with the slightly cool air, and Xie Yunhe felt much better.

And sitting on this step, Xie Yunhe felt that the burning sensation brought by the pool water gradually disappeared.

After getting on this small platform, Xie Yunhe no longer felt like he was being cooked.

He finally had the leisure to look at the pond.

The floor of this room is made of wood, and the pool is also made of wood.

Of course, it is not ordinary wood, but more like branches extending from some ancient tree.

Strictly speaking, the small platform under Xie Yunhe cannot be called a small platform, but rather a protruding thick tree stump.

Xie Yunhe felt that this place was a world created by elves.

There are some vines and branches on the walls of the room, which is full of natural atmosphere and completely different from the jade world outside.

It's like they were designed by two different designers.

After Xie Yunhe sat on the small platform for a while, he felt that the absorption speed of the golden substance became very slow.

I sighed in my heart, it seems that this small platform can only allow people to rest for a while.

Zhao Li opposite took another sip of wine and then jumped down from where he was sitting.

The whole person was immersed in the pool.

He looked at Xie Yunhe on the small platform opposite and remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to mention this.

"You can't soak in this pool for too long at a time. When your body can't hold on any longer, you can rest in that spot."

"But you've already noticed that soaking your whole body in the pool is the most beneficial, so you have to weigh the pros and cons yourself. If you can endure the pain of the pool washing away your tendons and marrow, you can even soak in it all day long."

"But I think too much is as bad as too little. The best way is the one that suits you best."

Zhao Li briefly talked about the pond.

This is similar to what Xie Yunhe guessed.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao, for your advice."

Xie Yunhe said gratefully.

The man could have said nothing, but he did.

It turns out that Fellow Daoist Zhao is a kind-hearted cultivator!

He was mistaken.

Xie Yunhe felt inexplicably guilty.

When he came in before, he was secretly summoning the Linghe Sword, and he was worried that the other party would use the same trick again and stick the sword into the floor in front of him.

It seems that he was overthinking it. He should believe that there are still good people in the world of cultivation.

Don't be too paranoid!

Xie Yunhe took a rest and planned to go into the water.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the opposite side.

"I was just about to ask, is that your pet?"

Zhao Li pointed at the fireball nestled in the bird's nest by the pond and asked curiously.
