"Young Master, to tell you the truth, I saw him a few days ago.”
"Where is he?"
When the man heard that someone knew, he couldn't care less about anything else. He walked up and asked anxiously.
"It's not far from here. It looks like he's heading to this small town. According to his speed, he should have arrived here yesterday, but I don't know if he's still here now.”
"Thank you for telling me, Young Master."
He cupped his fists and thanked him. He threw a piece of silver on the counter and said loudly,"Waiter, this is the money for the meal.”With that, he strode away.
Hong Yan knew the information she wanted, but she was not sure. She walked over and asked the man,"Excuse me, did Young Master Silver Fox tell you where he was going?”
"Miss, I'm not very familiar with Young Master Silver Fox. I just saw him and didn't talk to him.”
"Is that so? Then, Young Master, I'll ask again. What town is close to here?”
"Miss, there are a total of three. If you keep going east, you will reach Floating Town. If you keep going south, you will reach Jiangyang Town. If you keep going west, you will reach Pitou Town. Miss asked so clearly, did she also want to look for Young Master Silver Fox?”
"Young Master is right. I am looking for Young Master Silver Fox.”
After saying that, he threw a piece of silver on the counter like the man just now and left.
"That's strange. Why are there so many people looking for Young Master Silver Fox?" The man was shocked. That young master was the same, and now this lady was the same.”
"Don't you know that? That girl must have taken a fancy to Young Master Silver Fox, or she had been eaten up by Young Master Silver Fox and wanted him to take responsibility.”
Once he said this, there was another burst of laughter. If Hong Yan heard this, these men's mouths would probably be sewn shut by someone.
Since someone had seen Young Master Silver Fox, he definitely wouldn't have gone far. He just had to ask the stall owner by the roadside. He walked to the stall owner closest to the city gate and pretended to pick something while asking the stall owner.
"Excuse me, have you seen Young Master Silver Fox?”
"Young Master Silver Fox? Was it a man wearing a silver fox mask?”
"Yes, I am."
"He has already left the city. Miss, are you looking for him?”
"Yes, do you know which direction he went after leaving the city?”
"It seems to be heading south."
"Thank you. How much is this thing?”
After Hong Yan finished asking, she stood in front of the stall for so long. It seemed unreasonable not to buy anything, so she casually took something and asked him.
"Miss, five wens."
"This is five wens, thank you."
Hong Yan paid the money and left without saying anything. She already knew where he was going. Now, she just had to follow him and find an opportunity to assassinate him.
Returning to the inn he was staying at, he asked the waiter,""Waiter, do you know how far it is from here to Jiangyang Town?”
"Young lady, it's not long. It only takes a day to arrive.”
"Thank you. Please bring the horse for me. I'm leaving.”
Hong Yan went upstairs and returned to her room. She quickly packed her things and went downstairs. She saw that the waiter had already led the horse to the door. She took out a piece of silver from her bag and threw it to him, saying,"Thank you, keep the change."
The waiter smiled widely and kept nodding and bowing to thank him.
Hong Yan led the horse towards the city gate. Killers made a living by killing people, but they did not kill innocent people.
After exiting the city gate, Hong Yan mounted her horse and galloped towards Jiangyang Town, leaving behind a cloud of dust. The soldiers guarding the city were so angry that they cursed. She had caused them to eat a mouthful of dust.
She thought that with her good horse, she would only need half a day to arrive. Even if she did not arrive, there might be a farmer's house by the roadside where she could stay for the night. He did not expect that there was only grass on the roadside. There was no sign of human habitation at all. It seemed that he would have to sleep in the open tonight.
He led the horse into the mountain. It was better to stay on the mountain than on the roadside.
With her many years of experience living in the mountains, she easily found a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, if she looked down, she could see all the scenery below. Even if someone came up, they could see it clearly.
Hongyan tied the horse to a tree a little far away from her, picked up some branches, and took out a lighter to start the fire. Thinking of the cold weather now, the wild animals had gone into hibernation, and they couldn't even eat wild animals, she could only take out the dry food she bought during the day and eat it with water.
After eating, he added some branches to the fire. With a flick of his sleeve, a white silk flew out like a white snake and wrapped itself tightly around a tall and thick tree trunk. It then tied the other end to another similarly tall and thick tree trunk. Hong Yan looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction. Just as she was about to flip over and rest, she heard the sound of weapons clashing and a thick curse.
