Bao Zhen Zi

Chapter 286 Frightening Away Those Who Would Sacrifice Themselves for Art

Currently, Zhuxi Village requires a large number of talents, prodigies, and eccentrics. Anyone who can contribute to the future development of Zhuxi Village, Cheng Xiaofan wishes to recruit them.

Only in this way can he transform his hometown into the world's number one golden village.

Shen Ruobing is one of the talents he has his eye on.

However, Cheng Xiaofan is not Song Jiang from Water Margin. If he fancies someone and cannot recruit them, he resorts to wicked schemes, cutting off their escape routes and forcing them onto Liangshan.

In the book "Water Margin," Cheng Xiaofan despises the character of Song Jiang the most, viewing him as a cunning villain.

Just as Cheng Xiaofan was preparing to rest, he vaguely noticed two figures emerging from the bamboo villa and approaching him cautiously.

Although there was no moon that night, under the dim starlight, Cheng Xiaofan, with his heaven-defying vision, recognized them at a glance as Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi.

Huh?

At this dead of night, why were two beauties not sleeping soundly in the villa but heading this way? What was their purpose?

As they drew closer, Cheng Xiaofan clearly sensed something was amiss.

Never mind!

Out of sight, out of mind!

He had been tired all day, time to sleep!

In any unexpected situation, he must remember not to disrupt the important matter of soul merging with Goddess Bai in his dream!

It was a serious matter, and a beautiful one at that.

Moreover, in the pursuit of beautiful things, both parties could achieve sublimation through cultivation.

Just as Cheng Xiaofan closed his eyes, focused on sinking into his dreams, the two beauties, Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi, boarded the boat one after another.

They came to the side of the cabin and squatted down.

They discovered Cheng Xiaofan lying on his side, facing inward with his back to them, covered by a quilt.

Ling Qingcheng gently tapped the boat deck with her hand and whispered, "Uh, Master Cheng, are... are you asleep?"

"Master Cheng, I am Ling Qingcheng!"

"And I'm Gu Shishi!"

However, as soon as they finished speaking, Cheng Xiaofan's snores erupted.

"..." Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi were taken aback and exchanged glances.

Master Cheng seemed to be sleeping soundly!

Those who sleep unsoundly do not snore.

As expected of a master, even his snores had an artistic flair, like whistling on a night journey, with the tail end dragging out into a rooster's crow.

"Master Cheng is already asleep, what should we do?" Ling Qingcheng asked Gu Shishi.

Gu Shishi hesitated for a moment and said, "How about we call him again, and keep calling until we wake him up?"

Ling Qingcheng immediately shook her head, "Disturbing someone's dream is most detestable. Besides, doing so would be disrespectful to Master Cheng!"

Gu Shishi furrowed her brows and said, "This won't do, and that won't do, what should we do?"

Ling Qingcheng bit her fiery red lips and said, "A successful man always has some young and beautiful women around him!"

"How could a man like Master Cheng lack beautiful women to attend to him!"

"Since we both intend to dedicate ourselves to art, why don't we get into the quilt and embrace him from both sides?"

"If Master Cheng wakes up, he will surely understand our intentions, and he will not disappoint our painstaking efforts. Then we can often stay by his side and learn craftsmanship from him!"

Gu Shishi also bit her lip and nodded, "Alright, Qingcheng, this method is not bad. I'll listen to you!"

"..." Cheng Xiaofan had not yet fallen asleep.

He had overheard the entire conversation of the two beauties.

This was truly heaven-defying!

How did they come up with the idea of dedicating themselves to art?

What art are you talking about in front of me? In the eyes of others, I am just a simple country bumpkin!

At this moment, although Cheng Xiaofan's eyes were closed, when he released his divine sense, he could see clearly even the slightest rustling of leaves.

He saw the two beauties busily taking off their clothes.

What kind of game is this?

How dare you do this under the watchful eyes of my Goddess Bai?

No!

No matter what, he could not do anything to betray Goddess Bai.

"Hmph!"

Suddenly, Cheng Xiaofan turned over, letting out a resounding dragon's roar.

This sudden shriek made Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi tremble all over, almost falling into the lake on either side of the small boat.

"Who awakens first from this great dream? My life is known to myself. The thatched cottage is full of spring sleep, and the sun outside the window is slow!"

Cheng Xiaofan recited a few lines of poetry and then grumbled, "What madness at midnight? It's not dawn yet, where is the slow sun outside the window!"

He turned over again and let out thunderous snores.

"You scared me to death!" Gu Shishi was on the verge of tears.

Ling Qingcheng: "I was also scared half to death!"

Just then, Cheng Xiaofan's voice was heard again from his "sleep": "Noisy, whose female voices are these by my ears?"

"What demon dares to disturb my dreams shall be annihilated!"

Ah?

Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi's faces turned pale with fright.

Truly worthy of being a master, how domineering this is!

Two living beauties, dedicating themselves to art, were inexplicably annihilated in their sleep. How unjust their deaths were!

"Shishi, let's retreat quickly. We'll figure out another way later!"

"Okay, Qingcheng, let's go!"

Ling Qingcheng and Gu Shishi, trembling with fear, left the boat and tiptoed back towards the bamboo villa.

"Gulp..."

Watching the two beauties retreat dejectedly into the distance, Cheng Xiaofan finally let out a triumphant pig-like grunt.

Many people do not believe that Liu Xiaohui existed in history. Some people's brains are truly rusted by iron. Haven't I just successfully created such an excellent persona?

Should I invite someone to write a report on this matter tomorrow and publicize it widely in the media to prove my brilliance and righteousness?

Forget it!

If I did that, I would definitely be flamed to death.

They would say I'm not a man at all!

If I were a man, would I do something like this?

At this point, Cheng Xiaofan suddenly understood why the persona of Liu Xiaohui was so questioned by so many readers today.

Forget it, I'll just be a disciple of Liu Xiaohui who remains unknown!

However, regarding the events of this night, Cheng Xiaofan felt a little bit of guilt.

The two beauties came with such high hopes, but he ended up making them leave in disappointment. How cruel is that!

Indeed, this was not what a man should do!

But, to show his unwavering devotion to Goddess Bai, he had no choice but to defy public opinion and scare them away.

Not long after, Cheng Xiaofan drifted into a dream.

In this dream, he did not transform into a golden dragon and fly to the dragon boat in the starry sky to meet Goddess Bai.

Instead, he inexplicably entered someone else's dream.

And this person was none other than Shen Ruobing.
