The four of them embarked on the road to the capital, which is not very far from the capital and Yao Yuran according to the map, this is in modern times, and it takes forty minutes to take a taxi.

Unfortunately, this is in ancient times, not to mention that there were no cars, not even a bicycle.

What's worse is that they are still lost......

"Lord Chu Building, do you know how to read the map? I don't think this is the way to the capital! Three black lines appeared on Ye Junjun's forehead.

Ye Junjun still remembered that she didn't see such a purple bamboo forest on the way to listen to Yulou at all.

"Hey...... It seems that he has taken a wrong fork in the road. Chu Xiao sneered.

Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi broke out in a cold sweat, they thought that Chu Xiao was well-read and had a good understanding of geographical location or something, but now it seems that they overestimated Chu Xiao's ability. After all, Chu Xiao lived in Tingyu Tower all the year round, and he relied on secret guards to transmit news, so he didn't have much field experience.

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, he was still winding in the purple bamboo forest......

"Cuckoo !!" There were a few ethereal bird calls in the bamboo forest. Zhao Hengzhi panicked in his heart, and hurriedly hid behind Yao Yuran, for fear that he would be separated from Yao Yuran.

Thinking about the fine skin and tender meat of his body, he didn't want to fall into the plate of jackals and beasts.

Ye Junjun's eyes suddenly lit up, pointed to the light in front of him, was ecstatic, and said, "Everyone, look!" There seems to be someone over there! ”

Yao Yuran looked in the direction Ye Junjun pointed, and sure enough, there was movement over there, and it seemed that there was finally hope. "Let's go! Let's go check it out! Yao Yuran walked in the front, and the others followed behind her.

Surprisingly, there are more than just people here, it is a bustling street, with people coming and going, and it is very lively.

"Run, you won't see it any later!" Suddenly, someone from behind rushed over and accidentally bumped into Yao Yuran. Zhao Heng subconsciously looked at Yao Yuran, "Are you okay?" Have you ever been bruised? ”

As soon as these words came out, even Zhao Hengzhi himself felt strange that he would care about Yao Yuran's safety. In the relationship between the two, he doesn't seem to have as much prejudice against Yao Yuran as before.

He said in his heart, maybe it was because she risked her life to save her in the tile pot village of Qingxing Mountain, which made him slowly unguard her.

Yao Yuran shook his head and said, "It's okay, but why are they so flustered?" She noticed that the crowd around her was starting to rush forward, as if something big was going on there.

Ye Junjun's eyebrows were crooked, and he said with a smile, "Just grab someone and ask!" After that, Ye Junjun really grabbed a young man's arm.

The young man looked at Ye Junjun with trepidation, as if he saw that she was a female hooligan, and hurriedly covered his clothes.

Ye Junjun smiled like a flower: "Childe, don't be afraid, I just want to ask you, what's going on in front of this?" ”

The young man replied seriously: "There is a temple fair ahead, if it is a little later, the dragon and lion dance will be over!" ”

Ye Junjun let the people go, she turned around, and said to Yao Yuran and them with great interest: "Why don't we go to the temple fair too!" ”

Yao Yuran didn't have any opinions, after all, she rarely had the opportunity to see the temple fair. The opportunity is rare, and she is also full of curiosity about the temple fair.

Zhao Hengzhi frowned and said, "Yes, yes!" It's just that I'm a little sleepy, so we have to find an inn to settle down in quickly. ”

If it was before, he liked to go to crowded places the most, but now, his foot injury is just right, and today he is in a hurry, and he does not have the physical strength to walk more distances.

The four of them came to the temple fair, the lights were dim, the lights were colorful, the hawkers' shouts were endless, and there were many people around not far away, gongs and drums were noisy.

"It seems to be a dragon and lion dance, let's go over and take a look!" Ye Junjun hurriedly took Chu Xiao's hand and ran forward, Chu Xiao's cold gaze fell on Ye Junjun's hand, this little girl, who was so bold that she dared to take advantage of this chaos to rub his oil, she was simply impatient.

Chu Xiao was about to have a seizure, but Ye Junjun suddenly let go. He looked sideways and looked at Ye Junjun with his spare eyes, only to see that she was looking at the wonderful lion dance with all his attention.

There are five lions on the field, each lion is composed of two people, they are dressed in strips of lion's colored cloth, and the colorful lions with wide mouths and big noses, their bodies are flexible, step by step on the wooden bench.

Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi were also late, their eyes fell on the lion dance, and at this time, a lion was performing a "backflip on the high table".

"Okay!" From time to time, there were cheers from the crowd of onlookers.

Yao Yuran had also watched lion dances before, but at that time she saw it from a TV series, and today, it was the first time she saw a real lion dance.

After the lion dance, Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi were busy looking for Chu Xiao's figure, after all, Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi were now penniless, and they all relied on Chu Xiao.

"Look, there they are!" Zhao Hengzhi's eyes were sharp, and at a glance, he saw Ye Junjun and Chu Xiao sitting at the bean curd stall, drinking hot bean curd.

"Hey, you're enjoying yourself, and you don't pull us ......," Zhao Hengzhi complained. He looked at Ye Junjun and Chu Xiao, who were eating with relish, with resentful eyes.

Ye Junjun mistakenly thought that Zhao Hengzhi was blaming her for abducting Chu Xiao and eating the vinegar of the two of them. She hurriedly shouted: "Boss, two more bowls of bean curd!" ”

Ye Junjun hurriedly explained to Zhao Hengzhi: "Brother Hengzhi, don't be jealous, Chu Xiao was hard-pulled by me, and his heart still belongs to you." ”

However, Ye Junjun explained that Zhao Hengzhi's face was even darker.

Who said he was jealous??? Zhao Hengzhi held his breath, but there was nowhere to vent. It was Yao Yuran, she was very calm, and she asked Chu Xiao to take a silver ingot and went to buy a few bean paste buns to eat.

"Look, it's a lot of money!" Chu Xiao frowned, feeling that Zhao Hengzhi and the three of them were like a bottomless pit, he originally relied on them to make money, but now, it was like a money-losing deal.

He only hoped that Yao Yuran would keep his promise and pay off all the debts they owed him.

"Don't be sad, Lord Iceberg, I still have some silver here, give you some!" Ye Junjun said with a smile.

Ye Junjun's 'wealth' was not revealed, and now seeing Chu Xiao's sad face, she finally couldn't hold it back, and took the initiative to take out the silver to Chu Xiao.

The group ate and drank to their heart's content, and wandered around the temple fair before finding an inn to stay in. There are a lot of customers in the inn, and there are two rooms left.

Ye Junjun adhered to the principle of creating a romantic date for Zhao Hengzhi and Chu Xiao, and forced Yao Yuran into his room.

Only Chu Xiao and Zhao Hengzhi were left staring at each other. However, soon Zhao Hengzhi and Chu Xiao silently accepted the practical dilemma of sleeping together.

Chu Xiao and Zhao Hengzhi slept in their clothes, and the two of them lay straight. There was a big beautiful man sleeping beside him, Zhao Hengzhi was relatively timid, and he didn't dare to come out, for fear that he would accidentally touch Chu Xiao's body.

However, after Zhao Hengzhi fell asleep, his original form was revealed, and snoring was everywhere.

"Zzzzz......" Zhao Hengzhi's snoring was not covered, and one was higher than the other.

The magic sound poured into his ears, Chu Xiao had to cover his ears with the quilt, he couldn't bear it anymore, Chu Xiao had to pinch Zhao Hengzhi's nose with his hand.

Zhao Hengzhi's nose was out of breath, and his snoring stopped abruptly, but he also woke up suddenly at this moment.

"Huh? Lord Chu, you, you, you ......" Zhao Hengzhi looked at Chu Xiao in horror, only to see that Chu Xiao was putting one hand on his nose, and the pink thin lips had a tendency to lean towards his lips.

Chu Xiao hurriedly withdrew his hand, his cheeks flushed unconsciously, and he trembled, "I...... I just wanted to see if Zhao Gongzi slept ......"

"Oh." Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to try to stay calm, and silently pulled the quilt on himself again to hide his panic.

The night was getting deeper, Zhao Hengzhi finally fell asleep, Chu Xiao was about to fall asleep, but a dark shadow suddenly flashed outside. Chu Xiao recognized that figure as his most trusted secret guard Zhao Mo.

Chu Xiao tiptoed out of bed and came to the quiet courtyard outside.

"Come out!" Chu Xiao's deep voice sounded.

I only heard a rustling sound from the treetops, and a black shadow flew down from the tree, and the black shadow came to Chu Xiao respectfully.

"Lord!" Zhao Mo gave Chu Xiao a look.

"What do you want to report?" Chu Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, his gaze fell on the other party's cold eyes.

Zhao Mo is a secret guard carefully cultivated by Chu Xiao, and when he went out this time, Chu Xiao left Zhao Mo to guard the Listening Rain Tower, but Zhao Mo suddenly appeared here, which proved that there was something urgent to report.

"Lord, after you left, a bald bandit came to Tingyulou, and he spent a lot of money to inquire about the whereabouts of Zhao Hengzhi and Yao Yuran...... "Zhao Mo reported truthfully.

Chu Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked, "Oh?" How much? ”

"That's the number!" Zhao Mo said and raised five fingers.

Chu Xiao glanced at Zhao Mo's gesture coldly, his eyes were full of disdain, and he snorted coldly: "Five hundred taels? ”

Zhao Mo shook his head and said, "Five thousand taels!" ”

When Chu Xiao heard this, his eyelids rolled and he almost fainted, so Zhao Mo hurriedly stepped forward to support Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao's little heart was almost scared to death.

The bandits are indeed bandits, and the price offered is very attractive. Chu Xiao said in his heart, could it be that Zhao Hengzhi is not Hou Ye's biological son, otherwise how could Hou Ye not even be able to afford a mere 1,000 taels of silver.

Chu Xiao originally wanted to let Zhao Hengzhi and Yao Yuran go, but now it seems that the situation is evolving too fast, and Chu Xiao has to change his original plan.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright.

Yao Yuran stretched her waist and walked down the first floor of the inn, she saw Zhao Hengzhi and Chu Xiao like two stone sculptures, sitting there leisurely drinking tea.

When Yao Yuran approached, he saw that Zhao Hengzhi and Chu Xiao both had thick dark circles under their eyes.

"You guys couldn't have had insomnia last night, did you?" Yao Yuran looked at them inquiringly.

"Ah, yes, there are rats scurrying around the room, and I can't even sleep." Zhao Hengzhi casually lied.
