Cultivation of immortality begins with an eighty-year-old eunuch.

Chapter 20 Eunuch Wei: Still hiding? We've got you!

With a cold look in his eyes, Eunuch Wei walked step by step into the Sutra Repository!

This caused Chen Fan, who was hiding under the eight-armed gilded statue, to panic instantly upon hearing the noise.

I thought to myself, "We've hidden here, how could he possibly find us?"

"Come out! Do you really want me to come find you in person?"

At this moment, Eunuch Wei's voice rang out again.

He searched the library thoroughly but found no clues whatsoever.

But when he entered the room, he did smell an unfamiliar scent.

Could it be an illusion?

As Wei Gonggong became suspicious, he suddenly looked at the table beneath the eight-armed gilded statue.

The place was empty, just big enough for one person to fit inside.

With his eyes lighting up, Eunuch Wei clenched his right hand and walked towards the table.

Upon closer inspection, a red cloth was found covering the stage, perfectly concealing the empty space below.

As he sat down at the table, listening to the approaching footsteps, Chen Fan's heart was in his throat.

He held his breath, too afraid to make a sound, as if he were dead.

"We've found you..."

Lifting the red cloth covering the table, Eunuch Wei revealed a sinister smile.

The outstretched right claw also froze in mid-air.

It is clearly visible to the naked eye that there is indeed no space under the table.

But inside were not people, but some incense sticks, candles, censers, and two golden bowls filled with water.

Standing there stunned, Eunuch Wei glanced at it twice, then expressionlessly put the red cloth back.

He was exhausted after guarding this place for several days and nights, and perhaps he had just misjudged the situation.

Wei Gonggong, who was comforting himself in this way, sighed and returned to the statue to sit cross-legged and meditate to regulate his breathing.

Chen Fan, who was hiding under the table, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when he was about to be trapped in the house, he thought of hiding in the golden bowl at the crucial moment.

Previously, Chen Fan had only tried putting withered leaves, white radishes, and water into a bowl; this was the first time he had ever put a living creature in it.

Fortunately, the golden bowl was strong enough to save his life at this moment.

At the same time, Chen Fan was secretly delighted to have discovered another new ability of the Golden Bowl.

If he encounters someone he can't beat when he goes out in the future, he can just hide in the bowl.

As long as he doesn't go out, these people shouldn't be able to find him.

Conversely, Chen Fan, who was hiding in the bowl, could still hear the noises outside.

Feeling secretly pleased, he smiled.

However, Chen Fan soon encountered trouble again!

That means that the old eunuch Wei hadn't left, which meant he had to stay in the golden bowl.

Feeling rather helpless, he could only wait silently.

Fortunately, there was water and a large radish in the golden bowl, so Chen Fan wouldn't go hungry.

Bored out of his mind, he could only eat a radish to relieve his boredom.

On the prayer mat beneath the statue.

Wei Gonggong, who had just been sitting cross-legged in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes.

For some reason, he always felt that there was a second person in the room.

Still not reassured, he immediately got up and searched the library again.

But after searching for a long time, Eunuch Wei still couldn't find a single human hair.

Feeling a little frustrated, he shook his head inwardly, wondering if he was being too sensitive!

"I'll be back, you neutered dog!"

Just as Eunuch Wei was having doubts, a furious shout suddenly came from outside the door!

This made him frown, and he rushed out the door, saying:

"You shorty! I'm going to skin you alive today..."

The sound seemed to fade into the distance.

Chen Fan, hiding in the golden bowl, also knew that his opportunity had come.

Without giving it much thought, he acted on his impulse!

The next second, he appeared in front of the statue's seat!

Finding the room empty, Chen Fan grabbed the golden bowl and fled...

……

Time flew by, and three more days passed quickly.

Inside the Imperial Stables.

After taking a deep breath, puffs of white smoke rose from the top of Chen Fan's head and both shoulders.

Since he began practicing the complete version of the Everlasting Spring Technique, the explosive sensation in his dantian has disappeared.

Chen Fan is currently moving from the Breaking Void Realm to the Acquired Realm.

Even though he had mastered the complete Everlasting Spring Technique, he couldn't be happy now.

Even if Chen Fan cultivates the Everlasting Spring Technique to its limit, he will at most reach the Acquired Realm.

Furthermore, due to the flaws in his cultivation technique, the explosive sensation in his dantian would still occur.

He died after his spiritual energy filled his dantian and his body exploded!

Thinking of this, Chen Fan slightly opened his eyes.

"If even Eunuch Wei could break through to the Innate Realm... our family can too!"

Chen Fan sighed to himself, then got dressed and stood up.

It is now exactly 3:45 AM.

Having gotten used to leaving at this time, Chen Fan pushed open the door and headed straight for the horse pen.

Now that he no longer has three chestnut horses to feed, the withered leaves in his arms are dwindling.

Feeling a pang of nostalgia, Chen Fan smiled and followed them to the front of the Tianzi room.

Seeing the increasingly energetic Black Wind, a smile crept onto his face.

It is believed that the large white radish contains spiritual energy, and its value is higher than that of a fifty-year-old ginseng.

Old Ma, who was on the verge of death, was given a second life after eating a dozen or so radishes!

Lost in thought, Chen Fan smiled and stroked the horse's head, saying:

"Old buddy... remember how good we were to you, don't forget your roots after eating the radish..."

hiss…

Black Wind is inherently spiritual.

After hearing Chen Fan mutter, it raised its head and neighed in response.

"Alright, alright... I heard you... Eat up... We have plenty of these radishes."

Chen Fan pulled a radish from his pocket with a smile on his face.

After feeding Black Wind and the other imperial horses, he headed towards the kitchen.

Just got to the door.

Chen Fan then heard the sound of Xiaodeng chopping wood.

With a smile playing on his lips, he didn't disturb them, but instead stepped into the house.

Seeing the young eunuch diligently chopping wood, Chen Fan felt as if he were seeing his younger self.

He sat slowly in front of the stove, warming himself by the fire, and said softly:

"Chopping wood...you need to know how to use your waist to generate power..."

"Godfather...you're here..." Little Stool turned around and saw his godfather, a smile spreading across his face.

"Okay, Godfather, Little Stool has learned how to chop wood..."

After saying this, Xiaodengzi picked up an axe and chopped a piece of wood in front of his godfather.

Chen Fan nodded slightly after seeing this.

His long shadow, cast by the firelight, made him look much older at that moment.

"Godfather... there were assassins in the palace again the other day," said Xiaodengzi as he came into the house after chopping wood.

"I heard that several groups of people have arrived, and even Eunuch Wei has been alerted."

"There's a lot of trouble in the palace, so let's just stay within our bounds and do our jobs," Chen Fan said with a squinty smile.

"Godfather is right," Little Stool said softly.

"Xiao Dengzi was born to raise horses. As long as he can raise horses well in the Imperial Stables, that's enough for him. He doesn't care about anything else."

Looking at the honest-looking little stool, Chen Fan remained silent.

Thinking that the Lantern Festival was approaching, many more eunuchs had come to the palace.

This little stool must have heard or seen something to evoke such feelings.

Having spent decades in the palace, Chen Fan was already used to all of this.

After warming his body, he stood up and said:

"Raising horses is also a skill... If you can be like us, you'll be the kind of father-in-law people talk about in the future."

The little stool that was carrying water paused for a moment, then nodded, and its restless heart calmed down.
