Transmigrated Into The Book

"Let's stop for a while, my legs are almost giving up," Xianyu gasped his breath. They are at the front of a small eatery. Yuan kneeled down, then he tried to remove his shoes. "Let me see your foot," he said.

The shivers from Yuan's touch crawled towards Xianyu, it made him flinch. "Ehhh??!!! What are you doing so suddenly?!" Xianyu exclaimed, taking his leg away and putting his shoes back.

Yuan stood up and faced him. "I thought you said that your foot was hurting, so I'm checking it," he stated. He received a slight slap in his arms. "Are you crazy? You are gaining so much attention," Xianyu pulled him, "Let's just eat." 

The two headed inside and ordered something to eat. After taking a meal, they were going to meet Sun Wei and Qi Zhou. Yuan was the one who ordered their food, while the other male was busy thinking, gazing into nothingness. 

Yuan tapped the table. "What are you thinking so deeply?" he asked when Xianyu glanced at him. The other male scowled his brows. "I am thinking about that old woman and Feng, aren't I obvious?" Xianyu snorted.

This time, the other male moved closer to Xianyu. He left a small distance from his ears, then he whispered. "Good thing I have the evidence,"

Xianyu widened his eyes when Yuan showed him his palm. He saw another red pill. He grabbed the other male's hands and closed it. "When did you get that?!" Xianyu exclaimed in a voice where only the two of them could hear.

Yuan smirked at him. "I secretly took it from the box," he replied.

"Here are your orders, masters." The server smiled at them while putting the food on the table. The two sat still until the server finished. When he was about to turn around, Yuan called his name and asked. "Brother, is there anything happening around this place?" 

The server squinted his eyes, thinking that the two men in front of him were another outsider in their village. He was quite happy to meet the two and besides, the other male took out a bag of gold coins from his pocket and secretly handed it to him under the table. 

The server cleared his throat. "What do you want to know, masters?" he asked.

A grin stretches Yuan's cheeks. "Do you know a man wearing an eye patch?" he asked.

That question quickly made the male server flinch. "I encountered someone!" he blabbed out. He scanned their surroundings first, then after making sure that no one was looking at them, he leaned closer to the two men. "I am good at remembering faces," he stated. "Last month, there was a tall man who came here, he was wearing torn clothes and an eye patch, at first, we are not paying attention to him because he looks like a beggar on the streets, but when one of our customers suddenly attacked by a convulsion, that man didn't hesitate to help him," he said.

Xianyu gripped the server's sleeves. "What do you mean, he helped him?"

The server scratched his head. "This information is very confidential. I don't know if I am in the right to say this," he hesitantly replied. 

Yuan grinned, then he put another bag of gold on the table. "Just tell me if you need more," he said, looking straight into the server's eyes. 

The other male once again scanned his surroundings and whispered. "He put a blue pill in our customer's mouth then in an instant, his convulsion stopped." This time, the server boy sensed something from the two; no one would give him such an amount of gold for that small information. He turned his gaze to Yuan and smiled. "That mysterious man left a sample of that blue pill to me. He said that if another customer had an attack, I can give it to them," he uttered.

"Heh?" Yuan leaned his elbow on the table and chuckled, "I like your mouth. Do you like to trade with me?" he asked.

The server nodded. "Master, you exactly know what I want!" he exclaimed. 

***

Xianyu heard another heavy sigh behind him. It made him irritated that the nerves in his temple almost snapped. He stopped walking, then he faced the male walking behind him. "Can you please stop doing that?!" he snorted.

Yuan gazed at him with down eyes, then he shrugged and sighed again, "Doing what?" he asked sluggishly.

Xianyu replied with a smack, "Stop sighing so heavy like the world turns around you, it's your fault for giving all of your money to that server!" he crossed his arms. "Now you'll sleep on the streets with me," he added. 

"Xianyu, Oh my Xianyu!" Yuan grabbed the male and squeezed him into his embrace, "I will gladly sleep on the streets if you're with me, don't leave me on the cold nights, fu fu fu fu…" he cried out. 

"St-Stop s-squeezing m-m-me!!" Xianyu tried all his best to push the male away, but he didn't succeed. It led him to disappointment. He brushed his face. "What the heck am I supposed to do if you are in this state? Don't give me more headache!" 

Why did they end up like this? Because Yuan spent all of his gold coins on that server. The two of them drank until night. Yuan paid for everything and he also bought the blue pill from the male at an expensive price. In conclusion, they have no more money to spend.

On the other side, Xianyu was also thinking that maybe that mysterious man with the eye patch was also a healer. A healer liked him too, and that was giving him the urge to meet and talk to him in person. 

If they are the same, then maybe he can understand him. He wanted to know if he's really the one behind that 'Jiangyin incident' and the blue pill. Since they now have stronger evidence, Xianyu believes that this case will now give him enough answers for his questions.

Well, That's what he thought.
