Chapter 549: Chapter 146: Cao Gang n in Snake Team, Qiansui Buried in Heroic Society (Seeking Monthly Pass)_3
This had already been established through nurous experints.
However, Hei Shan seed to be certain that Xu Shu wouldn’t strike her, continuing to wail and put on a show: “I have assisted you, yet my lord is still rough with . My lord is naughty. I, your concubine, am wholly devoted to you. I, your concubine, it’s not that I won’t speak, but that the ti has co. It is better to ask them.”
The sorrowful tone slowly dissipated.
Xu Shu noticed that the eyes of the Jade Buddha blinked several tis.
Then, without moving her mouth, a timid voice ca forth.
“Ah, my lord, I, I am Ji Yu~” This ti the Jade Buddha spoke up, no longer playing a part in the grand performance.
Xu Shu felt much more at ease upon hearing this.
At the sa ti, he had a hunch.
“Could it be that you can take turns appearing?” Xu Shu asked.
“Pitifully,” Ji Yu responded, “Yes, we can take turns appearing each evening for a short while, just for a brief respite, so we can co out and breathe. It’s so stuffy inside. But they are all nice to ; they haven’t bullied …”
“I see…”
Xu Shu stroked his chin.
What was the use of being able to appear in turns?
Would it affect the intrinsic abilities of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin?
With a contemplative look, he picked up the Jade Buddha and, finding the right spot, pressed with his two thumbs, first rubbing with his left hand.
“Ah, my lord, you mustn’t touch there~” Ji Yu cried out in embarrassnt.
At the sa ti, Xu Shu heard a familiar song, “Co on, live it up~”
The tempting song, mixed with Ji Yu’s embarrassed resistance.
After listening for a while, Xu Shu stopped rubbing with his left hand, switched to his right thumb to rub and get down to work.
“Ai ai ai, not there too~” Ji Yu exclaid.
But the Guanyin Statue, beyond her control, continued to play music on its own: “The girl across, look this way, look this way, look this way~”
After another five minutes, Xu Shu thoughtfully turned off the music.
The functions of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin itself seed unaffected.
Then what was the purpose of letting them take turns appearing?
Xu Shu pondered and inquired, “Who allowed you to take turns?”
Ji Yu panicked, “It wasn’t , it wasn’t , my lord.”
Xu Shu said flatly, “I’m asking who permitted it, I know it wasn’t you.”
Ji Yu finally gathered a bit more courage; Xu Shu seed to hear her whispering to soone.
“The lord is asking, can I tell him? Can I?”
After a mont, she spoke up louder: “My lord, it was the Bodhisattva, the Bodhisattva has allowed us to switch. Here, the Bodhisattva reigns supre.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Xu Shu narrowed his eyes. The Bodhisattva, needless to say, was referring to the very embodint of the Jade Buddha, the true Primordial Spirit, the “Narrow Sleeve Guanyin.”
He asked Ji Yu a few more questions, but it beca clear that Ji Yu didn’t know much and was mostly unable to answer.
After a while, Ji Yu apologized, “Sorry, my lord, Ji Yu is too foolish, let her answer you. It’s ti for Ji Yu to go.”
Only an hour had passed.
Xu Shu deduced that they each had only a little ti to “bubble up.”
After waiting for a mont, Xu Shu asked, “Who are you?”
From within the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin ca the response: “Abba abba, gluglug, wabibapu.”
Xu Shu: ?
Understood, this was the Yang God·Corpse Dog.
This one couldn’t speak the human language.
Another hour passed, and amidst the “hulululu” sounds that were either insults or complaints, the voice of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin changed again, becoming pitiful and mournful, capable of making one weep at the sound.
No need to ask, Xu Shu knew, this ti it was the ‘Yin God·Sorrow’.
“Yellow strips, green strips, still black strips to choose; three days till death, seven days till death—if not chosen, death cos today~”
“A maiden of just eighteen, living in the south of the city selling waterlons—big, round, each one excellent. My husband cherishes every day, my life is filled with joy!
“Who knew that Chen Huajiang, a brute who defies all reason, ca to buy lons and refused to pay, smashed the waterlon claiming it was not sweet. My grandfather confronted him, and in turn, he was pierced by a knife and sent to the heavens…”
“Stop, stop, stop!”
Xu Shu’s head was aching from the incessant singing and quickly waved his hand, telling little sister Xiao Ai to stop.
Where did she learn all these complicated songs, from Hei Shan?
Another hour or so passed, and the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin beca entirely silent, making no sound.
Her appearance remained unchanged, but she now exuded a solemn and dignified aura.
Needless to say, this must be the Primordial Spirit·Wisdom: the true form of the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin.
“May we have a small talk?” Xu Shu sat upright and proper.
The Guanyin remained immovable as a mountain, like an inanimate object, yet in the pupils of her two eyes, a purple-gold light radiated.
Xu Shu inspected closely and discovered in her left and right eyes were tiny purple-gold gems entangled, each with a spiral tuft inside—one contained 18 strands, the other just one.
Incredibly, they were two Erosion Crystals!
These two gems moved towards the center, eventually rging together— one enveloped within the other, creating the appearance of a single crystal with nineteen spiral tufts inside.
Several seconds later, this vision vanished, as if the projection of a slideshow had ended.
The Guanyin statue lay there quietly, unchanged, eyes open wide as if looking at Xu Shu, yet also as if without focus.
Xu Shu cautiously waited for quite a while, not feeling the “spiritual damage from prolonged eye contact with the Primordial Spirit,” and finally he allowed himself so peace of mind.
It appeared that the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin truly had submitted completely.
“The imagery just now of the two crystals joining together, if I’m not mistaken, should be a demonstration of her loyalty, showing that her current strength has reached the Second Rank.”
