On the official road from Qinghe County to Yuyang County, a carriage tore through the heavy rain and fog as it sped forward, splashing mud along the way.
In the carriage, Yu Qi lifted the curtain and looked at the rain. Suddenly, he felt a sense of urgency!
"Old sir, stop at the crossroad ahead."”
When the old man heard this, he pulled the reins of the horse and the carriage moved forward for another hundred feet before stopping.
"Young Master, what's wrong? Yuyang County City was just three miles away.”The old man turned around and looked at the young master in front of him in confusion.
With that, he opened the oil-paper umbrella, lifted the curtain, and jumped off the carriage.
After saying that, he didn't care about the old man's confused expression. He opened his umbrella and picked a small path. After a while, his figure disappeared into the vast rain and fog.
The autumn rain is a bit wet and cold. I should hurry to the county city to get some wine to warm my body. The old man made up his mind.
As they walked on the small path, the sense of urgency in their consciousness gradually disappeared. Yu Qi's eyes were dark and gloomy as he sneered,"As expected."
His original intention for this trip to Jingxiang was to take a boat from the Tingzhou Ferry in Yuyang, enter the Han River, reverse the Yangtze River, and sail eight thousand miles to Dongting Lake before entering the Xiang River.
About two hours after Yu Qi left, a dozen horses galloped down the road. It was County Lieutenant Feng and his team.
"Quick, quick…this kid won't be able to get far in the carriage.”His deep voice was filled with anxiety as he shouted at his followers while urging his horse.
In a tavern in the county city, a flag hung on the tavern's flagpole. Not far away, a carriage was parked.
County Officer Feng took off his bamboo hat and strode in with his saber. A young officer beside him had sharp eyes. He lifted the collar of a drunk old man with his right hand and shouted coldly,"Where is he?"
"Who is it?" The old man's red face was full of drunkenness.
"Old thing, you still want to play dumb.”He raised his big slap and was about to slap the old man's face.
"Shi Hu, forget it." County Officer Feng's determined square face showed a hint of exhaustion.
The old man had already lost most of his drunkenness. He was so scared that he knelt down and said,"Sir, please spare my life."
"Where is the young man who entered the city with you?" Feng Yi frowned.”
"Young man? Oh, Daren is talking about that young master? He had already alighted five miles outside the city.”The old man's voice trembled as he finished speaking.
"Milord, are you still chasing?" Shi Hu asked in a low voice.
"Chase my ass. We've all been played.”Feng Yi's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out.
"Why don't we take the mother and daughter of the Yu family..."
County Officer Feng struggled for a moment before he restrained his emotions and said,"Don't mess around."
When Shi Hu heard County Lieutenant Feng's words, he understood. His eyes flickered as he lowered his head and said nothing.
……
The rain was getting heavier, and the mountain path was muddy and rugged.
The young man holding the umbrella swung his sword with his right hand to cut open a thicket of thorns in front of him. He looked up at the gradually darkening sky.
Looking into the distance, a dilapidated temple stood quietly in the distance among the broken walls and lush grass.
Yu Qi's face lit up as he quickened his pace. After about an hour, Yu Qi finally stopped in front of the temple.
This temple wasn't big, only a large hall. It was dilapidated and desolate, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.
In the hall, a bonfire crackled and burned, driving away the coldness of the rainy night.
Beside the bonfire, a young man and a young woman sat opposite each other. At this moment, they were holding onto the weapons in their hands and looking coldly at the youth who pushed open the door and entered.
The young man's eyes were firm as he said coldly,""We siblings aren't the masters of this place, so friend, you don't have to be like this.”
Yu Qi took off his bag and placed the umbrella aside. Only then did he have the time to carefully examine the young man and woman.
The young man and woman were about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. He was tall and sturdy, and his face was pale. He seemed to have an injury on his shoulder. He looked at the bonfire quietly in a daze, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The young girl seemed to have sensed something at this moment. When she saw Yu Qi sizing her up with a smile that was not a smile, she held the Emei spike in her hand tightly and glared at Yu Qi.
The beauty was angry and flirtatious.
Yu Qi smiled at her and took out a bag of cooked beef, two flatbread, and a pot of sake from his bag. He started eating.
I think modern people are open-minded, when this world is beautiful, naturally beautiful and delicious.
With the sound of the rain, gulp, gulp, Yu Qi drank two large mouthfuls of sake. His eyes looked at the rain and fog, and he only felt his heart relax.
He flicked the three-foot-long blade and muttered,""A cup of wine in the spring breeze of peach and plum trees, a lamp in the night rain of the pugilistic world for ten years.”
He had the same feelings as the heroes in the martial arts world on television in his previous life.
A soft voice accompanied by a delicate snort sounded. Yu Qi turned around and saw the young girl looking at him with disdain.
"Gulu, gulu." A strange sound rang out. The girl blushed and glared at Yu Qi.
"Young Lady, are you hungry? I still have some food here." Yu Qi said with a faint smile. Perhaps he had absorbed the memories of his predecessor Yu Qi, his language had the style of this world.
"Who wants to eat your leftovers?" The young girl was even more annoyed, she felt that Yu Qi's tone and expression were really hateful.
The young man also heard this and turned his face. He looked at Yu Qi and said,"Brother, do you have any more wine?”
Yu Qi didn't say anything more. He threw the wine jug in his hand towards the young man. As he threw it, he revealed a very exquisite method of transportation. Recently, Yu Qi's martial strength had improved a lot!
When the young man saw this, his eyes narrowed. He immediately reached out like lightning and took the wine jug.
"I never lack wine for my friends.”Yu Qi said indifferently.
