It had been more than ten days since they left Immeasurable Mountain. Although Zhong Ling had left a letter for Zuo Zimu to pass to Zhong Wanchou, given Zhong Wanchou's character, he would most likely not let it go!
However, these days, Zhong Ling's cuteness, intelligence, and cleverness had won the unanimous approval of Li Zhao and the others! Although Zhao Jin was partly to blame for this, Li Zhao and the others were no longer so unfamiliar with Zhong Ling's easy-going attitude.
"Young Master, it's already late. Should we find a place to stay first?”Li Zhao said in a low voice as he watched the setting sun gradually disappear into the mountains.
Zhao Jin lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the setting sun that was about to set. The setting sun covered the sky, and the fiery red sky seemed to have been braised. It was red and golden. Even the white clouds were illuminated by the golden fire. The breeze blew lightly, and the branches swayed.
"What boundary are we in?" Zhao Jin said in a low voice.
" Young Master, Jiazhou City is just ahead." The Blood Sacrifice just happened to be here. Before Li Zhao could speak, he had already answered first.
"Oh?" Zhao Jin faintly smiled. He then glanced at the Blood Sacrifice and said in a low voice,"Blood Sacrifice, this Jiazhou City makes you so excited. Could it be that you have an old flame here?”
Blood Sacrifice was stunned. Zhao Jin's words made his face instantly turn red. He was flustered and embarrassed. He coughed awkwardly and said helplessly,"Young Master must be joking…Young Master…I'll go ahead and make some arrangements."
Looking at the red neck of the blood sacrifice, not only Zhao Jin, but even the guards behind the carriage could not help but laugh.
He didn't expect that the Blood Sacrifice, who could keep a straight face in the face of death, would be flustered and embarrassed by such a small matter. If this were to spread to the Imperial Palace and let those imperial guards who were brothers with the Blood Sacrifice know, would they laugh their heads off?
"Gaggle!"
Zhong Ling's giggles rang out endlessly. She had been in contact with the Blood Sacrifice for more than ten days, and she knew his personality very well. He was definitely cold and calm. However, she did not expect Zhao Jin's teasing to make his face turn red. She could not help but say in a delicate voice,"Big brother Zhao is really a bad blood sacrifice. Big brother is such an honest person, yet you still tease him.”
"Bad?" Zhao Jin said with a smile.
"Bad!"
"Li Zhao, do you think I'm bad?"
"Young Master is benevolent and has boundless love. How could it be bad?”
Zhao Jin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This Li Zhao didn't usually suck up, but this time, he said something inappropriate. Was there anyone who praised others like this? He smacked his lips and shouted,"Xue Cang, Luo Yun, Luo Hai, do you think I'm bad?”
The voice outside the carriage hurriedly replied,""Young Master is one of the few people in the world with a pure heart. How can he be bad? Absolutely a good person."
Alright, Zhao Jin could not help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He really had nothing to say to this group of 'martial artists!'
It seemed that he had to go back and let them learn the legendary Four Books and Five Classics. Otherwise, when they encountered words that should be praised, they would be in a mess and embarrass him!
However, the Fist King was the Fist King after all. He felt helpless and his expression remained unchanged. He looked at Zhong Ling seriously and said,""Ling 'Er, look. The eyes of the masses are bright. Brother Zhao is a good person. How could I be bad? If you don't believe me, we'll ask if the blood sacrifice is bad or not. I think my words are more convincing, right?”
Zhong Ling couldn't help but laugh again and again. After a while, she snorted angrily and pouted her small mouth, saying,"Big Brother Zhao, they are all your subordinates. Why would they say that you are bad?”
Jiazhou City!
People came and went in Jiazhou City, and it was quite lively. The sound of peddling and shouting could be seen everywhere.
Walking on the streets was no less than the commercial streets of the later generations. Although the sun had gradually set, it did not seem to reduce the flow of people at all. On the contrary, some merchants and porters gradually increased.
At the Great Buddha Inn.
The inn wasn't very luxurious, but it was still considered a famous inn in the local area. The blood sacrifice was also arranged in consideration of safety and other comprehensive factors.
Zhao Jin was not a picky person. Of course, this was because of his soul in his later life. Back then, he did not even have food to eat and even slept in a garbage dump or a dilapidated temple. Now that he was living in an inn, he naturally did not feel too disgusted!
"Big Brother Zhao, the Big Buddha of Jiazhou and the Emei Sect are all here. Shall we go and play together tomorrow?”Zhong Ling was an active girl and said playfully.
"Hey, Young Master, Young Miss, it's not that I'm afraid of you, but our Mount Emei has lofty mountains and steep terrain. The scenery is beautiful and has the reputation of being the best in the world. Even Li Bai, the immortal poet of the previous dynasty, had praised the Emei Mountain as "higher than the West Pole" and "there are many immortal mountains in the Shu Kingdom, but the Emei Mountain is far from comparable".”
" As for the Great Buddhas of Jiazhou, the Lingyun Great Buddha is the most amazing one. The Buddha's head is as high as the mountain, and his feet are on the river. His hands are on his knees. The Buddha's body is well-proportioned and his divine power is solemn. He is chiseled against the mountain and sits by the river. It is very effective in suppressing the river disaster. However, if you don't want to climb, you can also see it at the mouth of the three rivers on the opposite side," the second brother in hemp clothes said with a smile. These words seemed to be said to everyone who came.
"Oh? Second brother, where is the mouth of the three rivers?" Zhong Ling asked.
"Hehe, because the Great Buddha is located at the confluence of the Minjiang River, Qingyi River, and Dadu River, it faces our Jiazhou City across the river. Therefore, if you go directly to the west gate, you can see it when you raise your eyes."
"Oh?" Zhong Ling excitedly revealed a playful excitement. Obviously, he was very interested!
" Waiter, hurry up and serve the dishes," Zhao Jin said with a smile.
" Ah, okay, okay. Please wait a moment, sir." The waiter heard Zhao Jin's words and hurriedly nodded. Then, he ran towards the kitchen.
"Shopkeeper, what do you mean by this?" A delicate voice suddenly came from the door.
" Ladies, ladies, please forgive me. It's not that I don't want to serve you. It's just that my shop has been reserved. Without the owner's permission, I can't do anything. Ladies, please forgive me," the shopkeeper apologized with a helpless smile.
"Shopkeeper, we are all from the Emei Sect. It's already sunset, and it's not good for us to go up the mountain. The other inns are full, so we came here. Can you make an exception? We can pay double the price for tonight's accommodation. How is it?" Her voice was soft and pleasant like a silver bell.
" This…" The shopkeeper paused for a moment and smiled bitterly. It was not that he was unwilling. It was just that he had accepted the money and had made a promise first. If he agreed to let them in, he might offend them! Moreover, his own principles of doing business had also been broken. However, these people were disciples of the Emei Sect. The Emei Sect was well-known in Jiazhou City and had great prestige! He was doing business here, so it was not good to offend him.
Just as he was in a dilemma, he saw Blood Sacrifice walk over with large strides and say indifferently,"Shopkeeper, my young master said that there are many empty rooms anyway, so let them in!”
"Good, good, good!" The shopkeeper was delighted and hurriedly said.”
Since the host was willing to do it, he naturally did not say anything. He smiled and welcomed the Emei Sect disciples.
There were only five Emei disciples. They were stunned at first, then they cupped their fists and bowed."Thank you so much!"
Facing the five beautiful women, Blood Sacrifice was indifferent. His expression did not change and he said indifferently,"" No need. If you want to thank someone, thank my young master." After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
" I you!" One of them was stunned, and then a sullen expression appeared on his face. He pulled out his sword and prepared to cause trouble for the blood sacrifice.
"Senior Sister Ding, don't!"
Blood Sacrifice suddenly turned around and frowned. He glanced at Senior Sister Ding and left with a cold snort.
"Junior Sister, don't act rashly!"
"Senior Sister, this is our Emei Sect's territory. Why should we be afraid of him?”This Senior Martial Sister Ding shouted in a low voice.
