As she watched Xue Xin's receding figure, Mother Xue suddenly asked Father Xue,""Master, why do I feel like I forgot something?”
"Could it be that he left something behind when he was helping Xin 'er pack his luggage?" However, it did not matter. Xin 'er had enough money on him. He was smart and meticulous, so there should not be any problems.”The two of them did not probe further and returned home while chatting. However, they didn't know that they had really left something important behind for Xue Xin, and this wasn't something that Xue Xin could buy with his intelligence or money.
However, it was currently noon, and the streets of Luoyang were crowded with people. After spending two days, the travel-worn Xue Xin finally arrived at the big city closest to his home. Because he wanted to hone his qinggong while traveling, he didn't prepare a mount. However, with Xue Xin's current walking speed, it wouldn't have taken him so much time to travel from his home to Luoyang. However, he was only concerned with acting cool at that time. At that time, after Xue Xin rejected his mother's proposal to send him to Luoyang, he didn't wait for them to say anything more and left like a wisp of smoke. Who knew that when he walked out of the valley where the Xue Family Residence was located, Xue Xin was dumbfounded. He had never walked out of this small valley for more than ten years. Moreover, when he came back that year, he was so eager to return that he did not pay attention to the road. Now, the road in the mountain was not obvious to begin with. It was impossible for him to go home and ask for help. He said that he was going out to travel, but now he was back home after less than two hours. Wouldn't that be a joke? Therefore, Xue Xin could only rely on the vague impression he had when he came home when he was young to wander around the mountains. Fortunately, his memory was really abnormal. Now that he was focused, he could remember the road he had walked once, so he saved a lot of time. Coupled with his good luck, he finally came out after two days of camping in the mountains. However, the start of the game had not been smooth, and it had wiped out most of his excitement when he left home. Moreover, the white clothes he wore when he came out were about to turn gray.
Xue Xin was really tired and hungry now. The most important thing was to find a place to eat. Just now, he said that his luck was really good. When he raised his head, he found himself standing in front of a familiar inn. That's right, this was the inn where Xue Xin and his mother had stayed in Luoyang when they returned home. It was here that Xue Xin met Medicine Master Huang and his wife." I wonder if my sudden impulse back then had any effect. Madam Huang is quite good to me. I wonder if the medicine I gave her had any effect?”Just as Xue Xin was about to immerse himself in his thoughts, a voice that made him feel extremely awkward suddenly came from his stomach. Therefore, Xue Xin could only retract his thoughts that were about to spread out and quickly walked into this inn called "Yi Ke Ju".、
The lobby on the first floor was still overcrowded. Xue Xin had always liked peace and quiet, so he did not stay on the first floor. Instead, he went straight to the second floor under the guidance of a waiter. After finding a seat, Xue Xin took out a piece of silver and threw it to the waiter without waiting for him to show off."No? "Alright, bring me some good wine and dishes as soon as possible. Take this silver first. You can make up for it later. If there's more, it's all yours."”The waiter was also an old hand at observing people's expressions. He knew that the customer was starving when he saw the way he dressed. Moreover, he knew that this person did not take money when he received the money. This large piece of silver was enough to buy a table full of delicious food. He immediately knew that he couldn't neglect it, so he agreed loudly and ran down quickly. Sure enough, money could make the world go round. Not long after, the waiter came up with a large plate of five to six dishes and a pot of wine.
Xue Xin was really starving, and only after he had finished most of the dishes on the table did his stomach feel a little better. Then, he picked up the small jar on the table and poured himself a cup. Then, as if he had suddenly changed into a different person, he began to taste the wine in a refined manner. These low-alcohol drinks were not to his liking. He was only holding a glass of wine for show. In fact, he was now pricking up his ears to see if he could get some useful information from the conversations around him.
It was also because of his lack of experience in Jianghu. One had to know that this restaurant was considered a relatively high-end place of consumption in Luoyang. Ordinary Jianghu people would not come here to eat. Therefore, Xue Xin did not get anything useful even after listening for a long time. He was almost done eating. Seeing that he wouldn't gain anything if he continued listening, he waved his hand and called the waiter over. The waiter had been paying attention to Xue Xin. It was not easy to meet such a generous customer. Seeing him greet him, he hurriedly ran over.
"What else do you want, sir? We have all kinds of top-grade tea here. Would you like a cup?”
Xue Xin was now very tired. Moreover, there was nothing to gain by staying here, so he directly said,"No need. Do you still have a room here? Give me one.”When the waiter heard that he still wanted to stay here, his face was about to turn into a flower. He quickly replied,"Yes, yes, yes. Please follow me to the shopkeeper downstairs to register.”So for the next half of the day, Xue Xin did not do anything else. After he went to his room, he took a quick shower and slept until the sun was setting.
After dinner, Xue Xin strolled out of the inn. On the one hand, this was the first time he lived alone after coming to this world, and now he wanted to take a good look at the ancient night market. On the other hand, he also wanted to buy some things. When he left home, he was so carefree that he almost became a savage in the mountains. It was now June, and there were no special festivals. Moreover, the world was not very peaceful now, so the night market was not as lively as Xue Xin imagined. After walking around for a while, he bought some necessities. Without waiting for the curfew time, he began to walk back. But before he could walk a few streets, Xue Xin suddenly felt as if someone was secretly watching him. With Xue Xin's current martial arts and spiritual power, this kind of faint feeling would not be wrong. Xue Xin did not turn around to look for the person who was paying attention to him, but continued to move forward without a change in expression. Unexpectedly, the feeling of being watched only disappeared when he entered the inn. Xue Xin knew that something was going to happen tonight, but there was nothing to worry about. Instead, he felt a little eager to give it a try.
Xue Xin spent the night in meditation, but he didn't expect that nothing would happen until dawn. Xue Xin didn't relax, but instead raised his vigilance even higher. Xue Xin was still dressed strangely. If one only looked at his thin and weak figure and his luxurious blue shirt, everyone would guess that he must be a noble son who had left home for a holiday. However, the strange backpack on his back, the sword hanging on his waist, and the Tang sword on his back completely ruined his scholarly temperament.
Xue Xin also did not buy a mount. He ignored the curious gazes of the surrounding pedestrians and floated out of Luoyang City. Although he no longer had a bad feeling, he still could not let go of the fact that he was being watched last night, so he did not use his qinggong to his full strength to hurry along the way. However, in the eyes of other pedestrians, his speed was also very shocking. Although he walked forward unhurriedly, his steps were not big, but he walked so fast that if you were not careful, Xue Xin would have disappeared from your eyes in the blink of an eye.
Gradually, the number of pedestrians on the road became fewer. After walking for about two hours, Xue Xin found that he could not see anyone in front of him or behind him, and the roadside also began to become desolate. Suddenly, Xue Xin's footsteps paused for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself. However, the next moment, he was walking slowly like a normal person. Not far ahead was a terrain that was very suitable for ambushes. Suddenly, a forest appeared in front of them. The trees were lush and green, and this road seemed to have been cut out from the middle of the forest when it was built.
