Li Mochou

Li Mochou… I sighed helplessly. Sun Keyi hid behind me in fear, while Shen Qingfeng proudly raised her chin. There stood Li Mochou, dressed in a pale yellow Taoist robe, beside the bamboo fence, a smile playing on her lips. She didn't seem to be in much better shape yesterday; her robe was slightly torn, and her ever-present whisk was nowhere to be seen, but she still smiled brightly, seemingly unconcerned.
I sighed, "Fairy Li, we are truly destined to meet. But regardless, we have arrived at the Old Immortal Dugu's place."
Li Mochou smiled and said, "You actually managed to cure the poison of the Ice Soul Silver Needle. It seems I underestimated you. Alright, now that we've arrived, where are my things?" I shook my head, "Let me first seek an audience with the Old Immortal Dugu. Of course, you'll receive yours." Li Mochou covered her mouth and chuckled, her appearance incredibly alluring, "You're too cunning. I don't trust you."
Our conversation, oblivious to everyone around us, annoyed the people nearby, "The Old Immortal only sees one destined person a year. What's the meaning of your disturbance?" The speaker was a dashing middle-aged man, long-limbed, with a square face and large ears—truly an imposing figure.
Li Mochou exclaimed, "May I ask who this great hero is?" Even I could hear the implication in her words: Who do you think you are, daring to interfere in my affairs? The middle-aged man, however, was completely unfazed by his threat and sneered, "I know you are the Red Serpent Demon Li Mochou. I am Zhao Gang from Lin'an."
I didn't know if this Zhao Gang from Lin'an was a human or a ghost, but seeing Li Mochou seem to gasp and her facial muscles stiffen, I knew that this man was someone Li Mochou couldn't afford to offend. He didn't know how to take advantage of this opportunity, truly wasting the reputation I had earned over the years of being shrewd and capable in society. He hurriedly bowed deeply to Zhao Gang and said, "Great Hero Zhao, I am Yu Chen from Chunqi Hall in Jiankang. My female companion and I came to see the Old Immortal Dugu of Yandang Mountain, but we encountered this Fairy Li... on the way. We tried our best to avoid her, but Fairy Li kept pestering us. I don't know why, but she argued so loudly in this immortal abode. It was truly
unavoidable. I hope Great Hero Zhao will forgive us." These words made Li Mochou sneer slightly, seemingly already angered. I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, but Zhao Gang from Lin'an seemed to be a truly formidable figure, and Li Mochou didn't dare to lash out here. Suddenly, she chuckled lightly, flicked her sleeve, and said, "Boy, I don't believe you can run to the sky." And just like that, she flew backwards lightly. Every time I see these martial arts practitioners displaying their lightness skills, I always doubt whether the Newton's laws I learned in middle school are actually correct.
Zhao Gang chuckled slightly. I quietly turned to Shen Qingfeng and asked, "What's the background of this Master Zhao?" Shen Qingfeng made a thoughtful gesture, then shrugged, indicating she didn't know, looking surprisingly adorable.
A servant-like figure beside Zhao Gang said to him, "Yesterday, the Red Serpent Demon fought with the four Huang brothers of Shaolin at the mountain pass. She killed the fourth Huang brother. Why didn't you spare this demon, Master?" Zhao Gang shook his head: "This female demon is ruthless, covered in poison. I don't want to cause trouble here with Master Dugu today." He then beckoned to me, and I quickly went over, bowed, and asked, "What instructions does Master Zhao have?" Shen Qingfeng, holding Sun Keyi's hand, looked at me with a hint of disdain. The two young girls wandered off to another spot to carefully examine Master Dugu's house.
Zhao Gang laughed, "You're from Chunqi Hall? You're just like your father, a carbon copy. I've known you for so many years, and I don't think I've ever been as romantic as you. Both girls are stunning beauties, even the imperial palace rarely sees such a sight." Seeing my awkward smile, he patted my shoulder, laughing with boundless pride, "You've already gotten yourself into trouble with Li Mochou on your first foray into the martial world. You've got some nerve! Instead of staying home and studying for the imperial examinations, why are you running around like this? What if something happens to you? How am I supposed to explain this to your father and your sworn brother? But don't worry, with me, Zhao Qi, here, Li Mochou won't be able to touch a hair on your head."
I was getting more and more confused. Who exactly was I? How could I act like I had connections all over the world? Zhao Gang asked again, "What brings you to see Master Dugu? Seeking medical treatment? Your Yu family seems to be even more capable than Master Dugu. Your father has always been an upright and honest man, never believing in anything beyond the six realms, and he couldn't even get help from Master Dugu. What difficult matter is it?" I didn't know what to say, and after a long pause, I reluctantly replied, "I've been studying in the countryside near Jiankang recently. I've heard people talk about Master Dugu in such a mystical way, and I've always longed to see him. The journey isn't too far, and I thought traveling ten thousand miles was better than reading ten thousand books, so I came here on a whim. On the way, I met two ladies from the Ancient Sword Sect of Zhongzhou..." "Mother, I unintentionally offended Li Mochou at Juyanglou in Wenzhou. She held me hostage the whole way, and I don't know what she's doing. Maybe she's afraid of our Chunqitang's reputation. I finally managed to escape when she had a conflict with the Four Elders of the Huang Family. Alas, I've really acted ridiculously."
Zhao Gang sighed, "Boy, you're lucky. Why would someone like Li Mochou be afraid of a pharmacy like Chunqitang? You only dared to harm you because of your sworn brother Xiao Feng! What kind of person is your sworn brother?" He sighed again, "It's a pity I didn't have the chance to spend more time with your sworn brother." He seemed to be longing for him.
Xiao Feng? Could it be... you know? I could only grin blankly. Then I heard Zhao Gang say again, "Old Immortal Dugu rarely sees anyone. I had no choice but to wait here. It's been ten days, and he still hasn't summoned me. But there's no use in being anxious. It's too absurd for a child like you to come to see the Old Immortal so rashly. Listen to Uncle Zhao Qi's advice, I'll arrange for someone to send you home
later." I was a little embarrassed and stammered, "I don't care, but my two female companions are seriously poisoned and absolutely need the Old Immortal's Impermanence Pill. We've been through so much together, it's not right to leave them here." Zhao Gang waved his hand and laughed, "Do others not know, but I do? The poisonous palm that Shen Hanyang was afflicted with is precisely treated with the Maple Garden Heart-Clearing Pill, a secret recipe of your Yu family. If you're willing, why not be generous and go back to ask your father?"
I turned my head and looked at Old Immortal Dugu's few bamboo huts in the fresh mountain mist after the rain. It seemed that they had been silent and desolate for many years. Beyond the bamboo fence, only the deliberately hushed conversations of people made the silence seem even more profound, as if only the movement of clouds and water in the mountains could be heard.
Shen Qingfeng and Sun Keyi stood by the fence, Sun Keyi occasionally glancing back at me. Shen Qingfeng, however, was intently observing the residence of the Old Immortal Dugu. The wind ruffled her hair, forcing her to tuck it behind her ear; each gesture seemed to tug at my heartstrings.
Oh well, since her master's injury was the most important thing, not seeing the Old Immortal Dugu wasn't a big deal. I'd just go back and beg my father in this world.
Life in this era seemed increasingly real, and I was becoming… a little unlike myself.
After much persuasion, I seemed to have finally convinced Shen Qingfeng. She asked me suspiciously how much the medicine cost, to which I countered by asking Sun Keyi how much she was worth—shouldn't the two be enough to balance it out? This earned me two punches from Sun Keyi in the back. It seemed that the old brand of Chunqi Hall was more effective, and Shen Qingfeng finally agreed to believe my promise. She then sought help from Uncle Zhao Qi, who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He patted his chest with great bravado, promising to send several skilled men to escort me back to Jiankang Prefecture. Just as everything was settled, Shen Qingfeng suddenly remembered her damned senior uncle and senior brother, insisting that they must go together. I absolutely did not want to get involved with that resentful Li Mochou again. Fortunately, Shen Qingfeng herself didn't know where to find this fairy, so she had no choice but to yield to my irresponsible promise to act according to circumstances.
The night was cool and still.
In this night, which must have been a thousand years ago, my thoughts always wandered. Especially as I increasingly felt that I should belong here.
Lying on the bamboo bed in Fuju Inn, one of the most luxurious inns in Wenzhou, I recovered from the physical exhaustion of yesterday and today. Outside the window, four of Zhao Gang's men were on night watch. Next door, I could hear the faint breathing of Shen Qingfeng and Sun Keyi... no, next door were Luo Zhizhong and Tan Dapeng, those two idiots. They were tied up in the ruins of the Huang family inn at the mountain pass, and were already half-dead when they were found. I was a little disappointed that Li Mochou hadn't finished them off.
The girls should be in the opposite room.
Honestly, I should have stayed there waiting to see Master Dugu today. After all, that's the only clue I got in this era, and it would have helped me figure out what kind of people my sworn brother and my father really are, making things easier for me in the future. As for ambition, I have none of that. Instead, I'm only thinking about Shen Qingfeng and going to my inexplicable father for medicine.
I still don't know what this Chunqi Hall and this Zhao Gang, the Seventh Master Zhao, are doing. Frustrating. What should I do when I see my "father"? Cry my eyes out? Just thinking about it makes me laugh.
Suddenly, there were two soft knocks outside the window, and I heard Shen Qingfeng's hushed voice: "Hey, you surnamed Yu, come out." I lazily pushed open the window. In this secluded courtyard we'd booked, Zhao Gang's men on patrol deliberately ignored Shen Qingfeng appearing at my window so late, and Shen Qingfeng herself didn't seem to mind. I leaned against the window and asked, "So late? What's wrong? Get some rest, we have a long journey tomorrow."
In the moonlight, her delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed, the moonlight reflecting on her exquisite face, seemingly shimmering with a cool, ethereal light. For a moment, I felt breathless.
Why wouldn't you go out in this situation?
In the courtyard, Shen Qingfeng seemed to share my dislike of the guards. I took a few more steps outside, but could still see the guards patrolling in the distance; I was always very cautious. Then I asked Shen Qingfeng, "Miss, what's the matter? There's no rush to marry me. At least I have to inform my father first. Don't worry, the main house is yours."
I smiled and chatted away, waiting to see Shen Qingfeng's slight anger. But instead, I saw Shen Qingfeng frown: "Are you always so unserious?"
She seemed quite serious. I felt a little guilty. I listened to Shen Qingfeng's soft voice under the moonlight: "My junior sister is asleep. She looks so happy. But I worry about her. You don't seem like a reliable person. I don't know what you're pursuing, what you're busy with, or what kind of person you really are. A moment of tenderness might move my junior sister, but as for her future, I... I really can't rest easy."
Watching her long eyelashes droop as she spoke softly, I understood everything. She was actually using her junior sister to talk about herself. Perhaps I had already touched her heart, but she reminded herself not to fall in love with me because she couldn't see anything reliable about me. Such a smart and strong girl wouldn't let a momentary emotional impulse cloud her judgment.
Perhaps... this is for the best. What am I in this era? A wandering, aimless soul? A dew that doesn't know its direction, doesn't know its tomorrow, and will evaporate with the rising sun? Who can I be responsible to? Can I be responsible for myself in this world?
Before me are still the same choices, the same life, the same pressures as in real life.
And the same feelings remained.
Thinking of this, my hands and feet turned ice-cold. I didn't even notice the fleeting gray figure; I only seemed to hear a soft, delicate laugh before fading into darkness.
When one awakens from unconsciousness, it's a strange feeling, like slowly rising from underwater to the surface. The surrounding scenery gradually becomes clear, and normal sensations slowly return. I struggled to sit up and found myself in a patch of grass. Looking around, I was on a small hill with bushes. There were stars and a moon in the sky, and beside me stood the figure of a woman in a Taoist robe, hands behind her back, gazing at the moon.
Damn, it's Li Mochou again.
The noise startled her, and she turned around, smiling at me, as beautiful as ever: "Young Master Yu has woken up? I'm so sorry there's no tea or towel to serve you."
I sighed: "Fairy Li, you don't need to be so polite. I always seem to run into you, such a distinguished person. I really don't know how I've offended you, that my lowly body should offend your noble eyes." Li Mochou giggled and bowed. That laugh confirmed one thing for me once again: this female demon's laugh... She had dimples, which bloomed at the corners of her lips, making it almost impossible for me to resist… Then I heard Li Mochou laugh, “Oh, Young Master Yu, you’re too kind. You are the one who is all-powerful, shrewd, and capable, truly remarkable. You know the secrets of our Ancient Tomb Sect, you can cure the poison of the Ice Soul Silver Needles, you have a powerful backer like Zhao Gang, and you even have…” She suddenly stopped, but I sensitively continued, “And you even have a sworn brother like Xiao Feng?” Li Mochou’s facial muscles twitched, and even her smile seemed to freeze for a moment. After a long while, a hint of ruthlessness appeared on her face: “I am a superfluous person living in this world. No matter how powerful Xiao Feng is, I am just this one life. But anyone who wants to use this to coerce me is just dreaming.”
Hearing the word “superfluous,” I felt a pang of heartache. Alas, am I not also a superfluous person in this world? Thinking this, my brain couldn't control my mouth again: "Fairy... no one is superfluous. You live for yourself, not for others." I slowly stood up from the ground, organizing my thoughts: "...The greatest characteristic of life is that you can try again after failure. Sadness, sorrow, and pain are only temporary. You are never superfluous; there will always be someone who appreciates you, cherishes you, and loves you." I shrugged: "I know my words aren't very convincing, especially coming from someone as cunning as you see me, but... do you really think that ruining yourself like this will make others feel sorry for you, will make them change their minds?"
Before I could finish speaking, Li Mochou's hand was already on my neck. With a cracking sound, I felt like my throat had been snapped, otherwise, why would it hurt so much I was about to faint! And I couldn't breathe; my face must be as red as a boiled shrimp now. Well, who asked you to reason with a crazy, perverted woman? You deserve to die.
I relaxed my grip and quietly looked at Li Mochou's crazed eyes in the moonlight. I still can't breathe, it's so painful. Maybe if I die like this, I can go back to my original world... But since I've paid the price of my life for these words, I hope you can truly cherish yourself and not die in the fire like in the book...
