Chapter 71 The Red Book
In the bathroom, Chu Ci carefully held the soap in her hands, gently rubbing it and carefully washing her hands.
She felt a little better when the water washed away the grime from her hands.
She recalled how she had accidentally grabbed a handful of dust while feeling around on the wall, and the slippery feeling made her very uncomfortable.
Now, after washing her hands, she has finally gotten rid of that discomfort.
Shi An took out a handkerchief to wipe Chu Ci's hands, and then helped her back to her room.
Chu Ci lay down on the bed, her vision completely dark. Recalling what had happened, she couldn't help but sigh, "I'm like a useless person now, unable to do anything."
Shi An quietly climbed into bed and hugged Chu Ci tightly.
"Will be fine."
"Hmm." Actually, Chu Ci was just being coy; she knew perfectly well what was going on. "I know."
She raised her hand to touch Shi An's face, then pinched it, clearly liking it. "It feels so good."
Shi An obediently let her pinch him, and after a while, she gently asked, "My lady, would you like me to read you a passage from a storybook?"
Chu Ci readily agreed, "Of course that would be great."
Yu Shi'an casually picked up a storybook from beside the bed and began to read it aloud softly.
This story tells of the love-hate relationship between the leader of a demonic sect and the son of the leader of the righteous path.
The author uses delicate strokes to depict life in the martial arts world, as well as the subtle and ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
As Shi An read aloud, the readers gradually became immersed in the story of Chu Ci, feeling the love, hate, and passion within it.
However, just as he was reading the most exciting part, Shi An's voice suddenly became softer and eventually almost inaudible.
Chu Ci asked with some confusion, "What's wrong, Shi An? Are you too tired?"
A blush crept up Shi An's ears, a hint of embarrassment in her voice: "No..."
Some of the subsequent scenes were described in a rather explicit manner, making him feel somewhat embarrassed and unable to speak about them.
But Chu Ci was still quite curious about what happened next, and couldn't help but ask, "What happened after the male and female protagonists fell off the cliff?"
"So...after they fell off the cliff, they miraculously survived and found a cave. Inside the cave, the two poured out their hearts to each other and began to kiss..."
Chu Ci raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly: "They finally cleared things up. I thought it would take a while. Their relationship is progressing faster than I expected."
Shi An turned to look at Chu Ci and said with a hint of helplessness, "Is that all you can think of now?"
"Yes." Chu Ci nodded honestly, "I need to learn the writing styles of different writers. Maybe I can use them when I write storybooks in the future."
Shi An: "…………"
He was initially worried that Chu Ci might feel shy or uncomfortable because of the plot in the book, but he didn't expect her to be so open and rational, and even thought about learning writing skills from it.
This left him somewhat speechless...
After reading for a while longer, Chu Ci had already fallen asleep.
Shi An carefully got up, quietly walked out of the room, and went to the kitchen.
He turned on the stove and casually boiled a sweet potato for his dinner.
After finishing the meal, Shi An locked the courtyard gate to ensure safety.
Then, as usual, I washed up, turned off the lights, and went back to my room to rest.
Despite his simple life, he was filled with peace and tranquility.
After taking off his shoes and getting into bed, Shi An hugged Chu Ci tightly, rested his head on her shoulder, and drifted off to sleep with the sound of Chu Ci's breathing.
The next day, Chu Ci didn't wake up until noon. Shi An was very worried and even asked He Baobao to take his pulse.
After examining her carefully, He Baobao reassured her, "Brother-in-law, don't worry. The side effect of the Fallen Burial Root is that it makes people sleepy. Sister Chu Ci is just a little sleepy, but her health is fine."
Shi An's brows furrowed a little after hearing this. "Thank you, Dr. He, for making this trip again."
He Baobao waved her hand, completely unconcerned, "It's okay, it's normal for you to worry about Sister Chu Ci. You can come to me anytime if you have any problems in the future."
Shi An nodded and took out the silver to give to her, but He Baobao resolutely refused to accept it.
"Really, there's no need. I just came to take a look. It didn't take much effort. Besides, it was our clinic that caused Sister Chu Ci to suffer this undeserved disaster. It should be my responsibility to heal her."
Looking into He Baobao's determined eyes, Shi An couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude.
He knew that He Baobao was not only a highly skilled doctor, but also a kind and upright person.
Since meeting her, he and Chu Ci have received a lot of help and care from her.
"Okay, thank you for this time," Shi An said.
He Baobao smiled, revealing two cute dimples: "You're welcome, brother-in-law. You're being too polite. Chu Ci and I are best friends, we're family."
He Baobao stretched and rubbed his shoulders, saying lazily, "You're welcome, brother-in-law. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving."
Shi An escorted the person to the door and said, "Okay, be careful on the road."
"Okay." He Baobao waved and then turned to leave.
After everyone left, Shi An dampened a handkerchief and carefully wiped Chu Ci's face, then gently combed her long hair.
Chu Ci slept soundly and didn't wake up until noon when his stomach started growling with hunger, at which point he groggily opened his eyes.
As soon as she regained consciousness, she instinctively called out, "Shi An."
"I'm here, my lady." Shi An quickly put down his work, walked briskly to Chu Ci's side, and took her hand.
Chu Ci rubbed her eyes, touched her empty stomach, and said pitifully, "I'm a little hungry."
"I've already prepared the meal, my wife. Let me help you up so we can eat," Shi An said, bending down to help Chu Ci put on her shoes.
Chu Ci scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and complained, "I feel like a pig right now, all I do is eat and sleep all day."
Shi An couldn't help but chuckle, reaching out to pinch Chu Ci's cheek, and said indulgently, "How can you talk about yourself like that?"
Chu Ci sighed helplessly: "It's really uncomfortable not being able to see anything."
Shi An hugged Chu Ci tightly around the waist, leaned against her chest, and whispered, "Didn't you say that I am now your eyes? So, my wife, don't be sad, Shi An will always be by your side."
Chu Ci's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
She gently cupped Shi An's face and tenderly kissed his lips.
Shi An's lips were as soft and sweet as honey jelly, which captivated Chu Ci.
She kept kissing him, seemingly never satisfied.
Chu Ci stopped moving only when Shi An could no longer bear the intensity.
The man, panting, leaned against Chu Ci's chest, trying to calm himself down.
His eyes were still somewhat unfocused, as if a cloud of mist was filling his mind, making it difficult for him to clear his head.
Chu Ci gently kissed Shi An's forehead, quietly waiting for him to regain consciousness.
After lunch, Chu Ci did not feel sleepy as usual.
She sat quietly at the table, enjoying the warm sunshine, chatting casually with Shi An beside her about everyday matters.
Chu Ci felt that the effects of the medicine in her body seemed to be weakening, because she could occasionally see some blurry shadows.
Time always flies, and in the blink of an eye, it was the third day since I went blind.
Chu Ci discovered that after two days of rest, her eyesight was recovering better and better.
When she woke up that morning, she could even see the general outlines and placement of the furniture in the room. Although it was still a little blurry, it was enough for her daily activities.
So she tried to do basic life tasks such as eating and washing herself, and successfully found the location of the outhouse.
Upon learning that Chu Ci's condition had improved, Shi An was overjoyed. He couldn't help but wave his hand in front of Chu Ci's eyes and ask with concern, "Can you see clearly now?"
Chu Ci precisely grasped his small hand, gently kissed it, and then smiled as she replied, "Yes, don't worry, I think I should be fully recovered in a few days."
Upon hearing this news, Shi An felt a huge weight lifted from her shoulders and nodded slightly in relief.
Then, he took the initiative to approach Chu Ci and hugged her tightly.
Chu Ci felt Shi An's care and love, and immediately responded to Shi An's embrace.
The two pressed close together, their heartbeats mingling, intimately connected.
"Thank you, Shi An," Chu Ci said softly. "You've really worked hard these past few days."
However, Shi An gently shook her head, indicating that she did not find it hard.
He pressed his cheek against Chu Ci's neck and said affectionately, "It's not hard work. As long as I can be by your side, I'm willing to do anything. Even if I have to take care of you like this for the rest of my life, I'm willing."
Chu Ci turned his head and kissed Shi An's cheek before carrying her to bed.
The two played and joked around for a while before going to have breakfast together.
A few days later, Chu Ci's eyes had fully recovered, and she was able to continue her studies.
However, this time the teacher did not give her any tasks such as memorizing or copying books as before, but instead handed her a book called "Human Anatomy Diagram" to take home and read.
After returning home, Chu Ci opened the book, her heart filled with curiosity.
This book provides a detailed description of male and female anatomy, with illustrations that are so detailed that they are easy to understand at a glance.
For Chu Ci, this was the first time she had gained a deep understanding of the differences between men and women in this world.
Through the illustrations in the book, she discovered that the men in this world, apart from having an extra reproductive cavity, had a different lower body structure than the men in her original world.
Although they did not lack any organs, their lower face had an extra interface connected to the reproductive cavity.
Chu Ci recalled the interface she had seen when she was bathing Shi An, and couldn't help but feel her face burning.
She paused for a moment, then continued flipping through the book to the next page.
This page explains the female body structure in detail.
Chu Ci didn't need to examine this part closely, because on the second day after she transmigrated to this world, she was already quite frightened by the new organs that had suddenly appeared on her body when she went to the toilet.
It took her a long time to accept it...
Chu Ci gave a bitter smile; sometimes she really felt like a transvestite.
Never mind, none of that matters anymore.
Chu Ci slowly turned to the next page, somewhat surprised.
She knew it was a book about human anatomy and weaknesses, but she didn't expect it to be so detailed and professional.
As the pages of the book were turned, the Chu Ci revealed the structure and function of various human organs, as well as the relationships between them.
This knowledge is very important for a martial artist, after all, understanding human anatomy and weaknesses allows her to better carry out assassinations and protect herself and others.
It can even save lives in critical moments.
When Chu Ci turned to the last page, she saw a diagram of human acupoints.
This diagram clearly marks the location and function of various acupoints on the human body. Stimulating acupoints can regulate the flow of Qi and blood in the body, thereby achieving the purpose of treating diseases or damaging the body.
Chu Ci gently closed the book, and couldn't help but admire the author's erudition and rigor.
She knew that this seemingly ordinary book actually contained endless wisdom and power.
Chu Ci had a very good memory, and it wasn't long before he had memorized the entire book perfectly, and he also remembered all the important knowledge points in the book.
She looked up at the window and, seeing that it was still early, picked up a book she had been reading before and started flipping through it again, wanting to reinforce her memory.
In the evening, Chu Ci went to the bathroom to take a shower, and Shi An came to the study to tidy up her desk as usual.
Just then, he noticed a book on the table that looked quite different from others; its cover was a bright red, which was very eye-catching.
Driven by curiosity, Shi An carefully opened the book.
However, when he saw the diagram of a male anatomy on the first page, he was so terrified that he almost dropped the book.
Several seconds passed before Shi An snapped out of her shock, hurriedly closing the book, her heart pounding like a drum.
"Why would my wife read this kind of book? Does she want to consummate our marriage?" This thought made Shi An feel both nervous and excited.
He returned to his bedroom with a heavy heart, feeling completely lost and unsure of what to do.
That's true. After being married for so long, Chu Ci has only ever given each other kisses and hugs, nothing more.
The two of them should also...
Thinking of this, Shi An blushed like a red plum blossom in winter and quickly got up to make the bed.
When Chu Ci returned after drying her hair, she naturally embraced Shi An and kissed her.
"have a rest."
"Um...um...okay." Shi An was a little nervous, and her fingers trembled slightly when she helped Chu Ci take off his outer garment, almost causing the garment to fall off.
Chu Ci glanced at him and said, "What's wrong? You seem a little off tonight."
"No...no...no," Shi An stammered, quickly turning around to straighten the clothes in her hands, her expression somewhat evasive.
Chu Ci still felt something was off; it just didn't feel the same as usual.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, patted the spot next to her, and said to Shi An, "Come here, Shi An."
Shi An walked over slowly, feeling a little uneasy.
Chu Ci looked at him, her eyes filled with doubt and concern.
"Tell me, what happened? Why do you look so nervous?"
Shi An bit her lip and sat on the edge of the bed, unsure whether she should express her thoughts.
