Immortality Begins by Taking Care of Master’s Wife – Chapter 4

Chapter 4: The Logic of Both Hands, the Wonderful Use of Supernatural Abilities

“Could it be a fox demon?”

Zhou Chen rubbed the white fox’s head, looking at it curiously.

If it was a fox demon, how could it be knocked to the ground by one of his stones?
He lifted the white fox, belly up, and took a look.

“As expected, it’s a female fox!”

Zhou Chen’s eyes flickered. It seemed that the acquisition of Romance Points wasn’t necessarily limited to women; other female creatures would work too?
“Yingyingying！”

The white fox seemed to cry out in shame and anger, struggling, but its whole body was numb and it couldn’t use any strength at all.

【Romance Points +1】

Zhou Chen rubbed the white fox’s belly and carried it down the mountain.

Along the way.

Zhou Chen petted the white fox as if he were petting a cat, but his Romance Points didn’t increase.

Zhou Chen wasn’t surprised.

He had worked so hard last night, but he had only gained sixty-nine Romance Points.

“Xiao Chen, you caught a fox?”

“Oh, and rabbits and pheasants! You had quite a haul today!”

“It seems Xiao Chen has a lot of energy after getting married!”

“I think that Qin girl brings good fortune to her husband!”

Returning to the village, Zhou Chen encountered quite a few people on the road. Although he didn’t have a good relationship with them, it wasn’t to the point where they would be jealous at the sight of him.

Zhou Chen didn’t have a good impression of them, but as an adult, he still nodded to everyone and greeted them!
【Romance Points +1】

When he returned home, Zhou Chen, who had been petting the white fox for almost half an hour, finally gained another Romance Point.

And after observing it along the way, the white fox didn’t seem to possess intelligence.

Of course, he didn’t rule out the possibility that it was too cunning.

“Brother Chen!”

Seeing Zhou Chen, Qin Hong Yu, who was tidying up the house, happily greeted him. Seeing Zhou Chen’s prey, the smile on her face became even brighter.

“Brother Chen, you caught so much prey?”

Qin Hong Yu was both surprised and delighted. Most people in the village made a living by fishing, but there were also a dozen or so hunters. Being able to catch two pheasants, two rabbits, and a fox in one day was definitely a stroke of luck.

And Zhou Chen had only been out for a long morning.

“It’s nothing. There will only be more in the future!”

Zhou Chen waved his hand. He wasn’t bragging. Once his Tracking skill improved, he would be able to catch even more prey.

He could even hunt tigers and wild boars once he became stronger.

“Brother Chen is so amazing!”

Qin Hong Yu was so happy that she couldn’t stop smiling. Although Zhou Chen was young and handsome, seeing that there was no surplus food at home and they might go hungry at any time, she was filled with worry.

Now, her worried heart finally settled down.

Even if Zhou Chen was lucky today, being able to catch so much prey was still a skill. Even if he did worse in the future, they wouldn’t starve to death!

Zhou Chen handed the prey to Qin Hong Yu, put the injured little fox in a cage, and then said:

“Hong Yu, we had rabbit yesterday, let’s have chicken today. I’m going out to buy some rice!”

“Okay!”

Zhou Chen left with a bag.

Da He Village wasn’t small; there was a shop that sold grain.

Zhou Chen had gotten two taels of silver from Ye Gou and Er Ma Zi, which was enough to buy four dou of rice.

In this world, one shi of rice was two hundred jin.

One shi was equal to ten dou, so four dou of rice was eighty jin, enough for him and Qin Hong Yu to eat for a month!
Zhou Chen carried the rice bag home. Qin Hong Yu’s eyes widened.

“Brother Chen, where did you get so much rice?”

“I ran into Ye Gou and Er Ma Zi when I went out earlier. They wanted to cause trouble for me, but I persuaded them with reason. This is their congratulatory gift!”

Zhou Chen smiled and said casually.

“Ye Gou, Er Ma Zi!?”

Qin Hong Yu was startled. Those two thugs could be persuaded with reason?

“I heard they never reason with anyone?”

“When I don’t reason, they do!”

Zhou Chen carried the rice bag into the house and placed it on a stool.

His left hand represented the Dao, his right hand represented reason, together they were logic.

“Logic…”

Looking at his slender palms, Zhou Chen knew that he could only reason with ordinary people now. When encountering demons, ghosts, martial artists, and immortals, it would be useless.

“Cultivation method…”

Zhou Chen’s heart was filled with longing. Since Romance Points could be used to add points to skills, it should be possible for cultivation methods as well.

As long as he obtained a cultivation method, he could quickly become stronger.

Unfortunately, such things couldn’t be rushed. No one in the village knew martial arts.

There were martial arts schools in San He City that accepted disciples, but they required silver.

“No rush, let’s settle our lives first. Besides, improving archery and tracking also takes time…”

Zhou Chen gathered his thoughts and glanced at the Wind and Moon Mirror in his mind. Currently, his main task was to improve his life, enhance his skills, and accumulate Romance Points.

As long as he had enough Romance Points, he could soar once he obtained a cultivation method.

“One night of passion with Hong Yu earned me sixty-nine Romance Points, touching the little fox once earned me one, petting it for a while and checking its gender earned me another, and finally, petting it for almost half an hour earned me one more…”

Zhou Chen was analyzing the pattern of gaining Romance Points, but unfortunately, there were too few references to draw accurate and effective conclusions!
He took out one and a half jin of rice and returned it to Wang Er Niu, then prepared dinner with Qin Hong Yu.

An hour later.

The meal was ready, and Zhou Chen ate heartily, feeling very happy.

Qin Hong Yu touched her slightly bulging belly, a satisfied expression on her pretty face.

Being able to eat her fill, and even have meat, was the greatest happiness for her.

It was the same for most ordinary people.

Their wishes were simple.

Just being able to eat their fill was enough.

“Brother Chen, you’re so amazing!”

Qin Hong Yu gazed at Zhou Chen adoringly, becoming more satisfied and fond of him the more she looked.

Seeing her husband capable filled her heart with joy.

“I can be even more amazing!”

Zhou Chen gave a mischievous smile, stepped forward, scooped up Qin Hong Yu’s legs, and lifted her horizontally into his arms.

“Ah, Brother Chen, what are you doing?”

Qin Hong Yu’s face flushed crimson. She pushed against Zhou Chen’s chest with her hands and said coyly:
“It’s still broad daylight, don’t… don’t do this…”

“Mmm!”

The fiery red sun slowly moved westward, and the horizon gradually revealed a brilliant red glow.

The sun was setting, the afterglow like blood.

“Yingyingying！”

The little fox cried out in the cage, seemingly hungry.

The adulterous couple in the room, however, were passionately entangled.

It wasn’t until nightfall, when a crescent moon hung high in the night sky, that Zhou Chen looked at his Personal Panel in his mind.

His Romance Points had increased from twelve to twenty.

“Only eight points?”

Zhou Chen frowned. Could it be the wrong time? Because it was daytime, so it was daylight?

“That shouldn’t be it. Maybe it’s because it was the first time before…”

Zhou Chen felt that was probably it.

No matter what you do, just like playing a game, the First Blood is always the best, and the reward is greater.

To explain it from a mystical perspective, perhaps the first essence could also be converted into Romance Points, so the first time he gained more Romance Points!
“Yingying！”

The little white fox cried out. Zhou Chen glanced at Qin Hong Yu, who was sound asleep in his arms. He quietly got out of bed and went to the kitchen to feed all the leftover food to the little white fox.

With his current strength, he wouldn’t lack food in the future.

And since the little white fox could provide him with Romance Points, keeping it was no problem at all.

After rubbing the white fox’s head, Zhou Chen returned to the room, slipped into Qin Hong Yu’s warm bed, embraced her, and continued to rest.

The next day.

Strands of sunlight shone through the window into the room, stealthily crawling onto their faces.

Zhou Chen opened his eyes and instinctively looked at the Personal Panel on the Wind and Moon Mirror.

【Romance Points: 26】

“It increased by six points!”

Zhou Chen’s eyes lit up. He hadn’t done anything else last night, just held Qin Hong Yu and stayed with her.

Even so, it increased by six points, which was not bad.

“Brother Chen!”

Qin Hong Yu opened her eyes and saw Zhou Chen. Her cheeks immediately flushed, filled with happiness and a hint of shyness. The lingering passion between her brows added a touch of mature charm to her as a married woman.

She didn’t stay in bed but helped Zhou Chen get up, dress, and wash.

Suddenly.

Qin Hong Yu realized her clothes seemed to have shrunk.

She looked down and was stunned.

“Ah!”

She couldn’t see her toes anymore!…
