[GL]Whose Wife Is Always Acting Pitiful? Oh, It Turns Out It’s Mine 67

Chapter 67: Diwu Miaofu

Since she was already in the Guanzhong region and this young man was also here, could it be that he didn’t know where he was? Xue Mu pondered for a moment and said loudly, “How dare I accept this address of ‘Sister’? Just now in Anya Town, I didn’t expect to see with my own eyes that you taught that heartless and unjust boy a lesson. Truly a chivalrous heart!”

“Haha, what kind of chivalrous heart do I have?” The young man said cheerfully. “Just occasionally snatching some ill-gotten gains to spend myself, not much.” As he spoke, he tossed two big gold ingots in his hand. “Seeing you eat so elegantly in the tavern just now, Sister, I, a rough person, can’t learn that posture. You must be from a prestigious family, right?”

Xue Mu smiled. “What ‘prestigious family’? Besides, that Young Master Men wasn’t a good person either. The ill-gotten gains you took, once spent, become ‘righteous wealth,’ don’t they?”

The young man laughed loudly and threw a big gold ingot at her. “Come, let’s share the spoils—oh no, share the ‘righteous wealth’!”

Xue Mu caught it calmly, looking up at the young man, a bit unsure of what he wanted to do.

The young man said, “Good Sister, I gave you righteous wealth, so tell me where you are going, okay? I’m really lonely all by myself. Seeing you rushing on your journey, I was really curious, so I turned back to find you!”

This isn’t turning back to find someone; he was clearly observing my path and direction not far ahead of me all along. Xue Mu thought to herself, but kept a smile on her face. She sighed softly and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to invite you to travel together, it’s just… just impossible.”

The young man rolled his eyes and said, “Then I’ll tell you my name, and you tell me yours, how about that?”

Xue Mu was in a hurry. If she was delayed by this young man any longer, who knew when she would reach Blue Wind Mountain? So she responded, “Okay, may I ask your esteemed name?”

The young man said, “My name is Diwu Miaofu! Just call me Miaofu!”

This surname wasn’t uncommon in the Guanzhong region, but the young man’s accent didn’t sound like a local. Xue Mu said, “Sister Diwu, have you traveled to Jiangnan before?” Previously, she heard that Dugu Yunuo’s accent didn’t sound quite like someone from the Central Plains. Yunuo had traveled in Jiangnan for two years. She asked Yuan’er, and Yuan’er also said her accent was influenced, but Yunuo liked the tone of speech in Jiangnan very much.

“Oh my!” Diwu Miaofu shouted. “You discovered it! I lived in the Jiangnan region since I was young, and later ran around everywhere when I grew up!”

Xue Mu couldn’t help laughing. “Why run around everywhere?”

Diwu Miaofu looked natural. “I haven’t had parents since I was young, grew up eating meals from hundreds of families!”

Xue Mu immediately said, “Sorry, Sister Diwu, Xue Mu misspoke.”

However, this Diwu Miaofu lived in Jiangnan since childhood, but looked more like someone from the Western Regions, and was an orphan. Truly don’t know which irresponsible parents abandoned their little child in Jiangnan and went back to the Western Regions to enjoy themselves!

Feeling pity in her heart, Xue Mu said, “Sister Diwu, I’m very happy to meet you, but Xue Mu has important matters to attend to, so I’m afraid I can’t travel with you.”

Diwu Miaofu wondered, “Why? Sister Xue, since we have exchanged names, we are sisters! Can’t I go where you go?”

Xue Mu scrutinized Diwu Miaofu’s face just now, feeling she was still young. She had to find clues herself, so she couldn’t drag her into the blood feud of the Yu Clan of Jin Mountain. Pondering, she said, “Sister Diwu, I really can’t take you. This trip might be dangerous for Xue Mu. How can I take you there?”

“Is Sister Xue in trouble?” Diwu Miaofu said loudly. “Then Miaofu is not a timid rat. As long as Sister Xue is willing to take Miaofu along, Miaofu will beat those bad guys to death for Sister Xue!”

Xue Mu said helplessly, “Sister Diwu, I’m not seeking revenge, nor am I being pursued for revenge…”

Diwu Miaofu said, “Where exactly are you going, Sister Xue? Don’t worry, I won’t cause trouble.”

Xue Mu was troubled. She couldn’t tell how deep Diwu Miaofu’s kung fu was, nor could she test it easily. Her own kung fu wasn’t enough yet; how could she get rid of this young man? No choice. Maybe when they reached Blue Wind Mountain, she would retreat in the face of difficulties.

“Alright,” Xue Mu sighed. “Alright, you can come with me.” Just as a look of surprise appeared on Diwu Miaofu’s face, Xue Mu added in time, “But I’m going to Blue Wind Mountain to see Sect Leader Qi Qing.”

Diwu Miaofu was stunned and said, “Sister Xue, are you going to the Blue Wind Mountain Sect? I only know that Sect Leader Qi Qing is very fierce, and the disciples under her are also extremely boring.”

“You haven’t dealt with the disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect, how do you know they are extremely boring?” Xue Mu said.

Diwu Miaofu giggled. “I’ve seen them in Jiangnan! Wearing blue Taoist robes, with silver hair crowns on their heads, tall, short, fat, and thin, right?”

Xue Mu nodded. “Yes. What did you do to them?”

Diwu Miaofu shook her head. “I didn’t do anything to them.”

Xue Mu didn’t believe it. Seeing the expression on her face, Diwu Miaofu shouted, “Fine, fine, I snatched something from someone.” She rummaged through the tattered cloth strips and took out a silver plate engraved with “Yu Qingdong of Blue Wind Mountain Sect.”

Seeing this, Xue Mu was greatly shocked. “Sister Diwu, you took the identity token of the second disciple under the Sect Leader of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect!”

Diwu Miaofu scratched her face and muttered, “Is that so? I thought this token had some other use. Can we use it as an entry pass to go up to the Blue Wind Mountain Sect?”

Xue Mu said, “This… I don’t know either. But if you go and take out this token, you will definitely be besieged by the disciples of the Blue Wind Mountain Sect.”

Diwu Miaofu wondered, “Isn’t the Blue Wind Mountain Sect a renowned orthodox sect? They would actually besiege the two of us?”

Xue Mu said, “Besiege you!”

Diwu Miaofu made a sound of disdain and threw the token back into Xue Mu’s hands. “Give it to you then! Let those ghost Taoists besiege you!”

Xue Mu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so she had to say, “Sister Diwu, I’m going up the mountain to see Sect Leader Qi Qing, so it’s best not to conflict with those disciples. This way I can see the Sect Leader more smoothly and ask some important things. You can’t use your kung fu to injure or kill people—if you are willing to come, let’s continue!”

Diwu Miaofu pulled the reins to turn the horse’s head, then stretched lazily.

“Sister Xue, don’t worry. I, Diwu Miaofu, don’t know anything else, but I understand the morals of the Jianghu clearly.” She said, “The only thing I learned growing up is the chivalrous principles instilled in me by those heroes of the Jianghu.”

Xue Mu nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll trust Sister Diwu this once!”

One after another, the two drove their horses on the path in the fields. Diwu Miaofu sang a little Jiangnan tune, her laughter as clear and bright as a silver bell.
