The sunset is full of sky.

On the official road from Zhaohua City to Dongxu City, Li Chenan and his party were galloping fast.

Li Chenan was quite surprised by this.

Because this is Zhongli Ruoshui's proposal.

She seemed to be getting anxious at this time.

Before this, she had never been in a hurry, and even wished to walk slower.

Of course Li Chenan didn't complain, but he was still a little worried.

"This will be too tiring. Xiao Wu said that you can't stand such tiredness."

Zhongli Ruoshui was indeed a little tired.

Even the official road is very bumpy, and the carriage is really simple, plus it runs very fast and bumps naturally very badly.

Today, I only rested for half an hour at noon.

The basin of ice that Li Chenan made at noon had already melted into water.

The weather is still hot, even though she has taken off the mask, her face is covered with fine beads of sweat.

Khan Zhu'er stuck the hair on her forehead, she looked really embarrassed.

But there was a smile on her face.

"It's nothing. Isn't it already dusk? Let's go to bed early at night."

Zhongli Ruoshui opened a corner of the car curtain, and the wind blowing in was also hot, mixed with the yellow sand from the official road, and there was an unspeakable smell in the air.

She put down the car curtain again, looked at Li Chenan, and said:
"I hope to be able to arrive at the Jianjian Building soon."

"The sooner we can go to the Wangqingtai, the sooner you can comprehend the [-] rites of the Unerring Heaven Art, the sooner I can recover, and I can truly accompany you through this lifetime with peace of mind."

What can Li Chenan say?

He took out a handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and gently wiped Zhongli Ruoshui's sweat.

"It will take two hours to reach Hexia County, why don't we leave tomorrow later?"

"No!"

Zhongli Ruoshui smiled slyly: "Find an inn in Hexia County, take a hot bath in the evening and have a raw meal. Be honest at night, and you can recover in the morning."

Li Chenan thought that I would be honest at night.

Since Zhongli Ruoshui has such an urgent heart, as long as her body can hold on, then let her go.

It's just that along the way, Zhongli Ruoshui occasionally lifts the curtain of the car and looks back. What is she looking at?
Li Chen'an didn't expect that Zhongli Ruoshui was worried that the girl named Xia Hua would come after her.

Xia Hua did come after her.

It's just that she was careless!

She never expected that Lu Xiaofeng would run so fast!
She didn't buy a horse in Zhaohua City!

Even if she is already a low-level master, her internal strength is not enough to support her to fly continuously.

So, she flew and walked, getting farther and farther away from Li Chenan.

But she didn't give up.

She thought about going to Hexia County at night, where she had to buy two better horses.

So non-stop, as long as Senior Li is really in front, he will catch up to him sooner or later.

……

……

into the night.

Hexia County is lit up with dots of lights.

This is a small county.

There is only one street horizontally and one vertically.

There is no Yuelai Inn here!

There is a small Jianghu restaurant here!
The restaurant is not small.

It has three courtyards.

The first entrance outside is the tavern, and the second and third entrance is the inn.

It was already dark when Li Chenan and his party entered the Jianghu Small Tavern, the red lanterns were already lit up in the small Tavern, and there were lively sounds from the Tavern.

The waiter's waiter had already greeted him, with a smile on his face:

"Guest officer, do you want to hit the tip or stay at the hotel?"

Li Chenan looked at the figures in the left and right wing rooms, and said:
"Come to two of the best guest rooms. Prepare hot water for bathing. Bring us the best wine and food. After drinking, go back to the room and take a good bath."

"Okay! Guest officer, come with the little one."

The waiter brought Li Chen'an and the others to a yellow horned tree in the southwest corner of the courtyard.

There is a pavilion under the tree, and there is a stone table and four benches in the pavilion.

"Guest officer, it's cool here, how about just sitting here?"

Li Chenan nodded, and the four of them sat down. Xiaoer picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea while saying:
"Guest officer, this place to live... The three best upper rooms of the third entrance have already been booked by customers, but the west wing room of the third entrance and two other rooms are actually not bad, if the guest officer does not dislike it..."

Li Chenan waved his hand: "Okay, take us there after we've had dinner later."

"Okay!"

That Xiao Er yelled towards the outside at the top of his voice:

"Four... one catty of stewed beef, one serving of shredded chicken and white fungus, one plate of eight-treasure rabbit, four bowls of green plum soup, one five-spice goose! Three catties of drunkenness!"

There are four gazebos at the four corners of the patio.

There are four tables in four pavilions.

Except for Li Chenan's table, the other three tables were already occupied.

Two of the tables were the most lively, each with seven or eight rather sturdy middle-aged men.

They seem to be drinking, and the hot night is still very hot, so there are a few bare-chested, breast-exposed, breasts, who are boldly carrying out the wine order, drinking and eating meat.

But under the gazebo in the southeast corner is completely different.

There was only one person drinking quietly.

Li Chenan took a look, the man was wearing a pitch-black outfit and a bamboo hat, which covered his appearance, so it was impossible to tell his age.

On his table lay a sword,

A jug of wine.

A plate of beef.

Four steamed buns.

He also looked more refined when drinking, and he didn't use a bowl, but a small cup.

He drank alcohol in small sips, ate meat in small sips, and gnawed steamed buns in small sips.

It seems that he is more like a scholar than a swordsman.

Li Chenan withdrew his gaze, and when the waiter brought a plate of beef, he asked:
"Your Jianghu small restaurant, all the people who come here are from the Jianghu?"

Xiao Er grinned and said:

"The vast majority are people from the Jianghu, and there are also business travelers or officials from the court."

Saying this, Xiao Er leaned over and said in a low voice: "The guests in the courtyard, those two tables, on the right are masters from Bajimen, and on the left are masters from Sifanghui...they are all famous sects in our country of Wu."

"But the real rich owner is like you, guest officer. In addition, the three best upper rooms are said to be occupied by a certain nobleman from Kyoto... Our shopkeeper doesn't know the identity of that person. He just wants us to take care of it, so we must not offend that nobleman."

noble?

The so-called nobles, of course, are those who are either rich or noble.

If it wasn't for Zhongli Ruoshui's medical treatment, Li Chen'an might have asked a few more questions.

But now he was also in a hurry to wash the sword building, and he didn't have any interest in this nobleman from Wu, so he didn't ask any more questions.

The dishes were delivered one after another.

The four drank and ate vegetables.

The taste of this dish is good.

Or maybe it's because I'm really hungry on the road today.

But just when Li Chenan had a glass of wine...

There is a person walking in this courtyard.

A woman in her twenties with a very graceful figure in a long white dress and a sword on her back!

Zhongli Ruoshui was startled.

She took a closer look and breathed a sigh of relief.

Not the girl named Xia Hua.

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, thinking that it wasn't Miss Ben who was afraid of her Xia Hua, but this cow, even if it held his neck, he wouldn't dare to take a bite of his own grass!

But recently this guy seems to be getting more and more restless.

Sister Xiao said that he was at the age when he was most energetic, and what he was practicing was the Heavenly Sun's Perfection of Heaven.

Maybe he can't suppress the desire in his heart, if he really sees a beautiful cow...

Zhongli Ruoshui glanced at Li Chenan.

She was heartbroken.

Li Chenan was looking at the beautiful girl standing in the courtyard! (end of this chapter)
