At noon, he slowly woke up. His True Qi had recovered completely, and he checked his interface.
He realized that his lightness skill, sword technique, and internal strength had all increased by a lot.
It was almost equivalent to three to five days of cultivation.
"As expected, actual combat is much faster than bitter training.”
He thought to himself.
After the battle at Cuiwei Mountain last night, he could clearly feel that he had improved in all aspects.
Especially swordsmanship.
The servant knocked on the door and brought in the lunch he had prepared. When he turned around and was about to leave, he was called by Lin Xuan.
"Prepare a good horse and three to five days worth of dried meat, grains, and water.”
He took out a silver ingot and placed it on the table.
"The rest is my reward to you.”
When the servant saw the silver and heard these words, he immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly said,"Don't worry, Young Master. However, the Horse Market is dozens of miles away from here. I'm afraid it'll be late to go back and forth. Why don't Young Master stay the night and leave tomorrow? There's an Autumn Lantern Festival tonight.”
"Autumn Lantern Festival?"
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
He wasn't in a hurry to travel this time. Moreover, he hadn't thought of a specific itinerary yet. It was not bad to see the local customs.
The servant took the silver and left the room, happily going to buy things.
He started practicing his fist and leg techniques.
In the evening, the inn was bustling with activity. There were even pleasure boats on the lake not far away.
A little later, the shopkeeper came to inform him that the Autumn Lantern Festival was about to begin. He carried the wooden box on his back and left the inn.
The sky was hazy, and the cold wind was blowing. The two sides of the long street were brightly lit, and every household had hanging umbrellas and lanterns.
Some were guessing lantern riddles, some were buying and selling jewelry and jade, and some were selling all kinds of things.
There were people coming and going, and there was a heavy traffic. There were handsome young men who went out with them, and there were also young ladies who looked around with their maidservants.
"Such a lively atmosphere is rare.”
Stepping into the long street, Lin Xuan muttered to himself.
The prosperity of Guangyang Prefecture was far from what Seven Heroic Town could compare to.
Lin Xuan was among them and appeared to be unique. He was wearing a capable robe and carrying a long box on his back. He was handsome and had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes.
It attracted the attention of many young ladies.
"Young master, do you want to buy some jewelry?”
"Take a look, take a look. It's a high-grade folding fan with rhinoceros horns as its bones.”
"Delicious candied haws, who wants to buy them?”
"It's the sugar man."
There were also some acrobats on the open space, swallowing swords in their mouths, breaking rocks in their chests, holding steel spears at their throats, and even spitting fire.
Many onlookers gathered around him and applauded. He also followed and watched for a while. He threw two pieces of silver into the copper basin and turned around to leave.
Life was comfortable with money. He could buy whatever he wanted and spend it however he wanted. He could eat meat and drink wine.
No wonder so many people wanted to be martial artists.
After walking for half a street, she did not see anything interesting. She was about to go to the lakeside to find a pleasure boat to enjoy the night view.
At this moment, a man in a white robe walked towards him and accidentally bumped into him.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
The man hurriedly apologized.
"I'm fine."
Lin Xuan shook his head and walked forward. The two of them brushed past each other as if nothing had happened.
The man turned around and looked at Lin Xuan's back. The corners of his mouth curled up, and a smile appeared on his face as he disappeared into the crowd.
"Interesting."
He muttered and headed straight to the lakeside.
It was said that the white-robed man passed through the crowd and arrived at a small inn. He went up to a room on the second floor.
There was a young man in black eating and drinking in the room.
"Old Bai, why are you back so soon?”
The young man raised his head and asked in puzzlement.
"Hehe, I met a young master who had just entered the martial arts world on the way.”
The man called Old Bai pulled out a chair and sat down. He poured a glass of wine and took out a heavy money bag from his sleeve.
"At the very least, there are at least a hundred taels of silver."”
"Little Ji, open it and take a look."
Lao Bai picked up his wine glass and sipped it leisurely.
The two of them were the famous God Thief duo.
Ji Wuming and Bai Zhantang.
An event like the Autumn Lantern Festival was a good opportunity for them to make a move. The two of them had specially rushed over from afar.
Just to steal something big tonight.
Ji Wuming opened the money pouch and poured out the silver inside. It was a total of five silver ingots and one gold ingot.
"I'm rich."
"Good job, Old Bai." Ji Wuming laughed.”
"This trip was not in vain."
There were hundreds of taels.
"This kid is unlucky to have met us.”
Ji Wuming said.
"That's right."
Lao Bai nodded." This kid is definitely a rookie. He has so much silver on him. He's lucky to have met me. If he had met other thieves, he might not even have been able to keep his life.
These few hundred taels of silver will be his tuition fee to a senior like me.”
"Old Bai, this kid must have some money on him. Why don't we follow him and get some more?" Ji Wuming was tempted.”
"Little Ji, be lenient so that we can meet again in the future.”
Lao Bai shook his head.”
"I'm not criticizing you, but when are you going to become bolder?" Ji Wuming said disdainfully.”
"Every time I steal it, I return it. Is there any meaning? The Imperial Court wants you as well."
"I'm a thief," retorted Lao Bai.”
"Bullshit."
Ji Wuming pursed his lips.
"Look at Chu Liuxiang, and then look at us brothers. Our reputations are one in the sky, the other on the ground.”
"We're all thieves. How are we worse than him?”
After arguing for a while, Ji Wuming didn't continue. He had eaten and drunk his fill and was preparing to do well tonight.
Lao Bai touched his clothes and his expression changed.
"What's wrong, Old Bai?"
Ji Wuming asked casually.
"I can't find my jade plate."
Lao Bai exclaimed.
"Impossible."
"Who could have taken the jade token from you without a sound? It must have been placed somewhere. Take off your clothes and look for it carefully."”
In the end, Bai Zhantang took off his coat and searched inside and out, but he still could not find his God Thief Jade Plate.
"Could it have fallen on the way?"
Ji Wuming said.
"It's over."
Lao Bai was in a daze.
"I'm going to lose my reputation this time."
The dignified God Thief had his jade token taken away from him without a sound. How could he still have the face to survive in the martial world?
