"Senior Brother Ye, the rivers and lakes are dangerous, you must be more careful." At the foot of Mount Hua, Ling Hu Chong said to Ye Xiu.

"Don't worry, senior brother, I will definitely be careful." Ye Xiu nodded.

"The rivers and lakes are far away, so let's say goodbye." Ling Hu Chong hugged his fist at Ye Xiu, and turned away with a smile.

Ye Xiu looked at Ling Hu Chong's figure, then turned around and left in the opposite direction to Ling Hu Chong.

After Ye Xiu turned around, Ling Hu Chong, who had already walked a distance, stopped and looked back at Ye Xiu's back, his expression became extremely complicated.

To be honest, Ling Hu Chong was actually quite envious of Ye Xiu, and even reached the point of jealousy.

The little junior sister who always liked to follow behind his ass had begun to like to revolve around Ye Xiu since Hengyang City, but she became less close to him, the senior brother.

There are also masters and masters, the attitudes of the two of them towards Ye Xiu have also changed a lot.

Originally, the master and the master treated him like a son, only he Ling Hu Chong, but now it has become Ye Xiu - no, Master Yue Buqun's attitude towards Ye Xiu is even better than the previous treatment of Ling Hu Chong.

Ling Hu Chong faced this situation, it was impossible not to be envious or jealous.

However, not long ago, that night, Ye Xiu showed his innate fourth-layer cultivation, and Hu Chong immediately understood why his master and sister treated Ye Xiu so favorably.

It's right to think about it, Ye Xiu is only eighteen years old, and he has such a cultivation. With Ye Xiu's talent, as long as he doesn't die halfway, he will definitely be able to become a grandmaster or even a great grandmaster, and carry forward the Huashan faction.

And he Ling Hu Chong, in his twenties, broke through the innate or relied on Dugu Jiujian. It's far worse than Ye Xiu.

"Senior Brother Ye, then, let's let me, Senior Brother, escort you and attract attention." Linghu Chong muttered.

In fact, the night before Ling Hu Chong went down the mountain, Ning Zhong also found Ling Hu Chong and talked a lot to Ling Hu Chong.

After all, Ning Zhongze really raised Ling Hu Chong as a son before, although Ling Hu Chong's various practices made Ning Zhong feel uncomfortable, but if Ning Zhong directly withdrew his feelings for Ling Hu Chong, Ning Zhong couldn't do it.

Ling Hu Chong is still like his son in Ning Zhongze's heart, but this son has become less filial and disobedient now.

Ning Zhong chose to tell Ling Hu Chong the truth, saying what Ye Xiu meant to the Huashan faction. said that Yue Buqun still had himself, why did he attach so much importance to Ye Xiu.

At the same time, Ning Zhong also unabashedly explained why Yue Buqun and her own feelings towards Ling Hu Chong had changed. Of course, Ning Zhong didn't say anything about Yue Buqun's sword training from the palace.

And such heart-wrenching words also opened the mustard in Ling Hu Chong's heart.

At the same time, Ling Hu Chong also understood why he became so embarrassed in Huashan.

In the end, Ning Zhong also explained to Ling Hu Chong that the purpose of him and Ye Xiu going down the mountain this time. Of course, this purpose has been disguised and modified to a certain extent.

Ning Zhongze's original words were like this: "Your master forcibly broke through in order to be able to improve his strength to protect Huashan, and now although he has broken through the realm, he is also injured, and the injury is not light. So this time, your Senior Brother Ye went down the mountain to find a martial art called Shenzhao Sutra, which was used to heal Master Ling's injuries. ’

After that, Ning Zhong even took the initiative to talk about the Ming Plank Road and the secret Chen Cang, but when he finally told him, Ning Zhong couldn't help but change his words.

After going down the mountain, Xiu'er needs to hide his identity, and as for Chong'er, you - Chong'er, you should also hide your identity. Safety is paramount. ’

Therefore, at this time, Ling Hu Chong, except for not knowing that Yue Buqun had practiced swords from the palace, almost knew about other things.

So Ling Hu Chong made his choice now.

Don't hide your whereabouts, everything will go naturally. After he was discovered by the people of the Songshan faction, he took advantage of the situation to attract a wave of attention, which could be regarded as helping Ye Xiu reduce his pressure.

It's just that Ling Hu Chong didn't know that Ye Xiu's situation was even more special, and he actually didn't need his help to relieve the pressure at all.

Of course, Ye Xiu himself didn't know.

……

Ye Xiu put on makeup, his originally handsome face was covered, and the sword in his hand also became a sword given by Dongfang Undefeated, so it seemed that it had no connection with the Huashan faction.

In fact, Ye Xiu hadn't walked much before, so not many people knew Ye Xiu's true face. After some more cover-ups, even fewer people could recognize Ye Xiu.

Watching Ye Xiu ride away from a distance, Dongfang was undefeated, Huang Rong and Qu Feiyan stood in place and watched quietly.

"Sect Master, Ye Xiu has come down the mountain, are we going to act too?" Qu Feiyan said with some excitement.

Because Ye Xiu had been staying in Huashan before, Qu Feiyan and even Huang Rong had no reason to approach Ye Xiu. So much so that Ye Xiu's favorability towards them has never risen or fallen, and he has almost never mentioned them in his diary.

Huang Rong and Qu Feiyan had long been a little impatient, and now that Ye Xiu had finally come down the mountain, they finally had a chance to get close to Ye Xiu.

"Next, I need to go back to Blackwood Cliffs." Dongfang Undefeated said to the two.

"Huh?" Qu Feiyan was stunned, and Huang Rong raised her eyebrows slightly.

"It's been a long time since I left Blackwood Cliff, and although there have been people here who have been reporting information to me about the sect, there are some things that must be handled after I go back." Dongfang Undefeated explained casually.

"Huh? The main sect is going back to Blackwood Cliffs? That's really good – it's too bad. I can't continue to follow the sect leader, and I can't lift my spirits. Qu Feiyan said this, but from her fluttering eyebrows, you could see how excited she was.

After all, she has always been by Dongfang's undefeated side, and with Dongfang Undefeated watching, she can't do anything she wants. So much so that after leaving Hengyang City for so long, she hadn't even been able to show herself in front of Ye Xiu.

Dongfang Undefeated looked at Qu Feiyan quietly.

"Well, that, I, I don't seem to have been to the Black Wood Cliff for a long time, and I miss it a little, or I'll go back with the sect leader?" Qu Feiyan smiled dryly.

"Okay, Qu Feiyan, you go to Blackwood Cliff with me. As for Huang Rong, you are free to move. Dongfang Undefeated commanded directly.

"Huh?" Qu Feiyan's eyes widened, and his face was unacceptable.

"Thank you, Sister Dongfang." Huang Rong smiled and looked happy, especially when she looked at Qu Feiyan, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, making Qu Feiyan feel as if she had been stepped on by the tail, and shouted unconvinced: "But sect leader, why can Huang Rong move freely, I have to go to Heimu Cliff?" ”

"Go to Blackwood Cliffs, that's what you said." Huang Rong said with a grin.

Qu Fei puffed out his two cheeks, like a pufferfish.

In the end, Qu Feiyan followed Dongfang undefeated to Heimu Cliff in frustration.

As for Yilin, she continued to stay alone at home in Huayin County.

It was Dongfang Undefeated who found that Yilin's character was too simple, and her love for things was also quite simple.

Yilin doesn't like the complicated world outside, she prefers to stay quietly in the small Buddha hall alone, whether it is chanting scriptures or praying for blessings. Most of the day is spent like this.

Although the life is simple and peaceful, Yilin feels very happy.

In fact, Yilin felt that it would be better if their family did not settle in Huayin County, but settled at the foot of Heng Mountain.

In this way, she can live with her sister while still being able to visit her master and those sisters from time to time.

As for why Yilin was allowed to stay in Huayin County instead of letting Yilin go to Blackwood Cliff-

After all, the Black Wood Cliff is the main altar of the Sun and Moon God Cult. And Yilin was a little nun of the Hengshan faction before, and let Yilin go to Heimu Cliff, I was afraid that she would feel super uncomfortable, and she might even be scared. It's better to stay in this Huayin County, at least Huayin County is at the foot of the Huashan faction, and there won't be too many problems.

As for security, a large number of masters of the Black Wood Cliff lurked here, just to protect Yi Lin, how could Yi Lin be in danger.

……

Ye Xiu rode his horse and hurried in the direction of Jingzhou City.

When he came to a small town, it was not early, Ye Xiu decided to rest in this town for one night and leave tomorrow.

Just when Ye Xiu rode his horse to the 'Yuelai Inn', he turned over and dismounted.

Just when Ye Xiu was about to go to eat something and fill his stomach, next to the Yuelai Inn, there was a quarrel at a small shop selling steamed buns.

Ye Xiu turned his head to look over, but found that the shop selling steamed buns was disagreeing with a little beggar.

The little beggar wants to eat steamed buns without paying, and then the ones who sell them are not allowed.

"Okay, if you don't eat it, you won't eat it, and I'll give it back to you." The little beggar said and put the steamed bun back in his hand.

"You, you, look at the steamed buns you made, they're all dirty, how can you still sell them?" The steamed bun shop couldn't help but shout loudly.

It's not that the steamed buns are unreasonable, it's mainly the steamed buns that were put back by the little beggar, with five more black fingerprints on them.

The steamed bun itself is quite white, white and tender, and it is also very good-looking, quite appetizing. But at this time, there were five more black fingerprints on the white and chubby steamed buns, and it really couldn't be sold.

But the little beggar stretched out his little hand and grabbed all the steamed buns directly, leaving five black fingerprints on them. Now, things are getting bigger.

The steamed bun seller did not relent.

Ye Xiu's expression was strange, he always felt that the scene in front of him had a strong sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Ye Xiu couldn't help but look at the little beggar - yo, it's still an acquaintance!!

"Little Brother Mu? It's you! Ye Xiu shouted with a little surprise.

This little brother Mu is also a very smart person, when he was in Hengyang City, the other party had used his wisdom to help Ye Xiu and Yue Lingshan.

"Brother Ye? Coincidentally, I didn't expect to run into you here! After the little beggar Huang Rong saw Ye Xiu, she didn't seem to expect to meet an old friend here, and talked to Ye Xiu happily.

"Well, you have to pay for my steamed buns-" The steamed bun seller couldn't help but say next to him at this time.

"Give." Ye Xiu touched the ten copper plates and threw them directly.

One copper plate can buy two steamed buns, and that cage of steamed buns is less than twenty, so Ye Xiu lost ten copper plates, which is enough.

After taking over the copper plate, the steamed bread seller gave Huang Rong the steamed bread that Huang Rong had just caught.

"Phew, this kind of dirty steamed bun, I'm not rare." Huang Rong pouted.

"Okay, okay, since Little Brother Mu doesn't want to eat steamed buns, forget it, it just so happens that I'm going to eat too, so Little Brother Mu will come with me." Ye Xiu casually invited Huang Rong.

Huang Rong's eyebrows suddenly fluttered: "This is what you said, but I have a very bad mouth, and I can't get used to eating ordinary food." ”

“…… Then let the restaurant order a good signature dish. Ye Xiu shook his head, for his friends, he didn't mind inviting the other party to have a good meal, especially after Ye Xiu started Jingzhou City, he would go to Tianning Temple first and take out a little treasure, so the money didn't mean much to him anymore.

"That's what you said." Huang Rong said, but walked into the Yuelai Inn next to her one step faster than Ye Xiu.

"Shopkeeper Er, let's first come four dried fruits, four fresh fruits, two salty and sour, and four candied fruits."

"I don't know, what dried fruits do you want, and which are the four fresh fruits? And what do you want for salty and sour? Four candied fruits and those four candied fruits? ”

"The four dried fruits are lychee, longan, steamed dates, and ginkgo. Fresh fruit you pick when it's new. Salty and sour want to build fragrant cherries and ginger plums, I don't know if you can buy them here? Candied fruit? It's rose kumquat, fragrant grapes, icing peach strips, pear flesh, good Langjun......"

Huang Rong reported the names of some dishes, and under Ye Xiu's strange expression, he directly ordered 48 dishes, and he asked for the best. Even the other party also said a lot of dishes and requirements.

Just now, when Ye Xiu saw the little beggar and the steamed bun seller, he felt a strong sense of déjà vu. And now that the little beggar has ordered forty-eight dishes, now, Ye Xiu almost already knows the identity of the little beggar.

It's just that Ye Xiu doesn't understand, shouldn't Huang Rong be in the Great Song Kingdom? How did you get here? And this is still with yourself? What about Guo Jing? Did Guo Jing run away on a little red horse?

"Brother Ye, I'll order this thing, it's not too much, right?" Huang Rong said to Ye Xiu quirkily.

"What do you say? Who will eat 48 dishes directly? It's definitely not cheap. I've got all the money here, so you'll see if it's enough to pay the bills. Ye Xiu also wanted to be like Guo Jing, who would pay directly without saying anything.

It's a pity that his current economic conditions don't allow it.

After all, the economic situation of the Huashan faction is not very good. Although Ning Zhong had already given Ye Xiu enough entanglement, it was only based on spending money lavishly.

And Huang Rong ordered forty-eight dishes at once, and they were all the most expensive and valuable. Ye Xiu's money may not be enough.

Huang Rong looked at Ye Xiu like this, but it was not a pity, she directly reached out and took Ye Xiu's wallet in her hand, and then counted the silver in the wallet: "Well, enough is enough." After paying the bill, there is still a scrap or two of silver left. Huang Rong said with a grin.

"......" Ye Xiu looked at Huang Rong a little speechlessly. She's really not polite at all.

In the end, Ye Xiu's wallet was empty, and there was a big table of dishes, and even a table couldn't be placed.

Then, some of these dishes, Huang Rong took a bite, and some just glanced at them, smelled the taste, and didn't even eat them.

In the end, Huang Rong didn't eat two bites of the forty-eight dishes in total, so Ye Xiu ate some, and the rest was almost not touched at all.

"After all, this town is too small, and there is no good cook. Brother Ye, I'll treat you to something delicious another day. Huang Rong said to Ye Xiu with a smile.

"That's what you said, I'll be waiting for your treat. But you don't even have the money to buy steamed buns, why do you invite me to eat delicious food? Ye Xiu seemed casual, but asked with a little meaning.

"I don't have any money, but I'll do it. I'll tell you, I'm not sure about anything else, but I'm super confident when it comes to cooking. Huang Rong said confidently.

Okay, Ye Xiu is 100% sure that the little beggar in front of him, who claims to be surnamed Mu, is in all danger Huang Rong's disguise.

"By the way, Little Brother Mu, it's been a while since the last time I said goodbye in Hengyang City, why did Little Brother Mu come here?" Eating almost, Ye Xiu put down his chopsticks and asked.

"I don't have much to go anyway, so I'm just running around. This time, I heard that a man named Wan Zhenshan in Jingzhou City is going to celebrate his fiftieth birthday, so I plan to join in the fun, and then eat and drink. Huang Rong said with a grin.

Ye Xiu wrote in his diary that he was going to Jingzhou City, and Dongfang Undefeated almost immediately investigated the situation in Jingzhou City through the information of the Sun Moon God Sect, and Huang Rong naturally saw this information.

"To Jingzhou City?" Ye Xiu looked stunned, he didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, Huang Rong actually wanted to go to Jingzhou City.

As for not a coincidence? Ye Xiu never told anyone else that he was going to Jingzhou City, even Ning Zhong didn't tell him. How did others know that he was going to Jingzhou City?

And Wan Zhen Mountain's 50th birthday, this is indeed to be passed. So Huang Rong's statement was really fine, and then Ye Xiu felt more and more coincidental.

"What? Brother Ye, are you going to Jingzhou City too? Did Wan Zhenshan send you an invitation to Huashan? Huang Rong asked curiously. It's as if she really doesn't know anything.

"That's not true, after all, Huashan is still a little far away from Jingzhou City, and Wan Zhenshan, he is also a little famous near Jingzhou City, and he will not send invitations to Huashan from far away. I just have something I need to go to Jingzhou City to do. ”

"It's a coincidence, we all have to go to Jingzhou City. Just drop by. Huang Rong said to Ye Xiu with a smile.

"yes, that's a coincidence, let's go together?" Ye Xiu also likes Huang Rong, a quirky little girl.

"Okay, let's go together!" Huang Rong smiled and nodded, the two of them made an agreement.

After that, Ye Xiu used the remaining more than one or two pieces of broken silver to open two rooms, one for himself and one for Huang Rong, and then Ye Xiu only had a few copper plates left, and he could still eat a few steamed buns tomorrow.
