Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 130: Sense of Achievement in Construction (22)

"My husband, do you not understand much about the fox demon clan?"

Seeing Chen An's uncertain expression, Shen Qingyi realized this and softly asked.

Chen An didn't feel embarrassed about his lack of knowledge and honestly nodded, "Hmm, I really don't understand much."

Upon hearing this, the wives were all surprised.

The fox demon clan is well-known and has been the object of many male cultivators' fantasies throughout history.

However, their husband, who had an almost overflowing energy for indulgence every day, actually didn't know much about the fox demon clan?

This was too unbelievable.

The wives were puzzled, while Chen An felt it was only natural.

He wasn't a native of this world and couldn't quite understand the obsession male cultivators in this world had with fox demons. He wouldn't bother to learn about them unless necessary.

He thought that the male cultivators in this world liking to fantasize about something happening with fox demons might be similar to how men in his previous life liked stockings.

In the following time,

Out of concern for her husband's personal safety, Shen Qingyi patiently explained the characteristics of fox demons to Chen An, so that he wouldn't fall under their spell one day.

1. In this world, fox demons are an extremely special existence. They are not demons formed by foxes cultivating, but are born as demons. They are born in human form and, apart from having fox ears and tails, are no different from human women in other aspects.

2. Fox demons have graceful figures and stunning beauty. They are only female and have no males. They can only reproduce with human men, and their numbers are extremely scarce.

3. Before reaching adulthood, fox demons rely on breast milk for sustenance. After reaching adulthood, they can only survive by absorbing the essence of human men.

4. Fox demons have extremely strong spiritual power and are skilled in various illusions. Their main hunting method is to use charm techniques to bewitch human men, then use their mouths to absorb the essence within the men's bodies. The ones who are absorbed may suffer minor damage to their Dao Foundation, while others may die on the spot.

5. Fox demons have extremely weak physical bodies. As long as one can effectively deal with their illusions and charm techniques, it is easy to overpower them.

After listening to Shen Qingyi's explanation, Chen An couldn't help but be amazed at how unique fox demons were in this world.

"Husband, remember to bring the Heartbreak Pill with you when you go out in the future. This pill might be effective against the charm techniques of fox demons," Gu Xinyue suggested.

Chen An's eyes lit up upon hearing this, as he suddenly remembered that he had the Heartbreak Pill.

The effect of this pill was to make the user lose interest in the opposite sex for a certain period of time, which was the opposite of the effect of charm techniques.

In terms of effects, it should be able to counteract charm techniques.

But the specifics would have to be tested to know for sure.

"Yue'er, luckily I have you. Otherwise, I would have almost forgotten about the Heartbreak Pill," Chen An said as he hugged Gu Xinyue and openly expressed his affection for her in front of the other three wives.

Nowadays, he rarely used the term "husband" and mostly referred to himself as "I," making his speech more modern.

"You really are something. Our two daughters are right here, can't you restrain yourself a bit?" Wen Zhiyun reproached Chen An for kissing Gu Xinyue without considering the occasion, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

Chen An shrugged and said, "I just kissed her on the face, there's nothing inappropriate. Why are you so sensitive?"

"You really have no decency."

"You're right about that. I really have no decency. Come on, Yun'er, give me a kiss too!"

As he spoke, Chen An leaned over and kissed Wen Zhiyun on the cheek.

The kiss happened so quickly that Wen Zhiyun couldn't react in time.

Wen Zhiyun's face was filled with embarrassment and anger as she said, "You're so annoying, I don't want to see you!"

After speaking, she got up and left the central open area of the tunnel, which was the so-called hall, and walked into a small compartment in the front, which was equivalent to a room in the previous house.

Chen Yike, who was less than a month old and only the size of a thumb, immediately followed behind her mother and ran into the room with her sturdy little legs, making kissing sounds.

Gu Xinyue watched this scene and hesitated for a moment before looking at Chen An and persuading him, "Husband, can you please be more considerate towards Sister Wen? Sister Wen takes care of little Yike every day, which is quite tiring. It's normal for her to occasionally throw a tantrum."

Before Chen An could say anything, Song Huaying on the opposite side smiled and said, "Sister Gu, you don't understand. The banter between husband and wife just now is a way for them to show affection. It's quite interesting. If the husband doesn't banter, Sister Wen wouldn't be happy."

"Ah? Is that so..." Gu Xinyue found it difficult to understand.

At this moment, Shen Qingyi spoke up, skipping the topic of banter between husband and wife and speaking rationally, "Husband, unless something unexpected happens, our family will probably have to live in this tunnel for quite some time. We need to carefully inventory the existing supplies."

"Qingyi is right."

After Chen An finished speaking, he had a thought and took out the daily necessities from the storage bag, starting to count them.

Seeing this, the three wives also took out their own storage bags and started counting along.

"Husband, I'll go call Sister Wen out."

Song Huaying asked Gu Xinyue to help her count while she went to call Wen Zhiyun to come and count together.

Soon, Wen Zhiyun came out.

She didn't give Chen An a good look and glared at him.

Chen An was used to it and stood up, sitting down next to Wen Zhiyun and naturally reaching out to embrace her while counting the supplies.

Wen Zhiyun was angry, but she allowed him to embrace her, letting his restless hand take advantage of her.

After about two quarters of an hour.

All the supplies were counted.

Among them, the most important were food and water.

There were spirit rice and dried meat for food, enough to last for a year or more.

As for water, it was a bit tricky.

Because the water gathering spirit jar that was originally placed in the backyard to collect spirit water was recently smashed by a monster's corpse falling from the sky.

Now, if they wanted water, they either had to rely on collecting rainwater from the sky or go to the nearby stream to bring some back.

"It's a pity that none of us have the water spirit root, otherwise we could continuously produce water, and there would be no need to worry about water shortage."

Chen An said regretfully.

Shen Qingyi calmly sorted the dried meat and said, "It's alright, the water issue, I will go out regularly with you to bring some back, it's not a big problem."

Chen An nodded and said, "That's true."

After saying that.

He suddenly remembered that there were still many resources in the rooms above the tunnel that could be used, so he said to his wives:

"I'll go upstairs and bring in the spirit herbs from the vegetable garden, the spirit chickens from the chicken coop, and the spirit fish from the pond, so that they won't be destroyed by monsters falling from the sky one day."

"Husband, I'll accompany you."

Shen Qingyi stood up and said.

"No need, it's not very safe upstairs, I'll go alone."

After saying that, Chen An went back to the ground alone to collect the resources.

He dug up all the spirit vegetables in the vegetable garden and brought them back to the tunnel.

Then he planted a few under each opening where there was light.

He planted as many as he could.

The rest were all dried at the tunnel entrance to make dried vegetables.

As for the spirit chickens in the chicken coop and the spirit fish in the pond, because they were not cultivators with the water spirit root and couldn't freeze them, they were all slaughtered and dried at the tunnel entrance, making dried chicken and dried fish.

In addition, the corpses of the monsters that were killed by Goldfinger in the courtyard were also moved into the tunnel and made into dried meat for storage.

The drying process could be accelerated using alchemical fire, so there was no need to worry about the meat spoiling.

"Oh, the soundproofing array needs to be set up too."

Chen An remembered this and quickly returned to the ground to remove the array eyes of the soundproofing array, and then set up the soundproofing array in the tunnel.

The soundproofing array only blocked sound from the outside.

Sounds from inside the array could be heard, but sounds from outside the array couldn't be heard.

"Great success!"

"In the days to come, the whole family can comfortably take refuge in the tunnel."

Chen An looked around at the tunnel he spent half a day building and felt a great sense of accomplishment in his heart.

This was the innate sense of accomplishment that men had in building things.
