Chapter 84: Meeting an Old Friend in Another Country

A group of businessmen were rushing up the road in the hot afternoon light.

At this time, it is past the beginning of summer, and the mountains are getting hotter and hotter.

The ground trembled slightly with each step of the huge beasts.

Under the scorching sun, the businessmen who followed the beasts were sweating all over and some could not bear the scorching sun.

But when they saw the Baishi city boundary monument in front of them, they still made a cheering sound.

"Hahaha... We’re almost to Baishi."

"When I enter the city, I need to take a cold bath first! Then I can have a good sleep!"

"I'm afraid you're not going to sleep alone... Hahahaha..."

In the caravan, a burst of cheerful laughter broke out.

However, although Lu Heng didn't follow them, the men didn't dare to talk about some topics that were too erotic. But when they squeezed their eyebrows and winked at each other, they couldn't help but snicker.

Not far in front of them, by the side of the road, stood a huge stone tablet engraved with the big word "Baishi city".

Under the [Baishi city], there are also dense small characters.

However, behind the boundary monument, there are still desolate roads and uninhabited mountains and forests, and no traces of the city can be seen.

Seeing that Lu Heng was curious about the boundary monument, Huo Feng opened his mouth and explained.

"This is the boundary monument of Baishi city. Stepping into the scope of this boundary monument is the protection of Master Wuzhu of Baishi city."

"Although we are about a day away from Baishi, we will not meet demons in the next section of the road."

Huo Feng said, "Within the boundary monument, there are masters of the Fire God Temple around to prevent evil spirits from invading."

"Of course, beasts are not within the scope of deportation. So there will still be fierce beasts."

"However, within the boundary, the villages are inhabited by hundreds or even thousands of people. So as long as there are no rampant demons, ordinary fierce beasts rarely hurt people."

Lu Heng nodded to show understanding.

After passing the boundary monument, the next road will become much easier to traverse. It can be seen that the roads within the boundary are renovated frequently, and there are fewer potholes.

And the more you go forward, the more people and farmland gradually appear on both sides of the road. There are more people on the galloping Road, which is no longer the same as before.

On the night of this day, the post house where the caravan people stayed was no longer a desolate and empty post house. Instead, someone manages the money collection post, which is similar to the inn known to Lu Heng.

But according to Huo Feng, there is no private posthouse (inn) in this world.

All the post houses are under the jurisdiction of the fire temple, and there will be witches and masters of the fire temple in the post house to prevent evil people from sneaking into the business.Fiind updated novels on no/v/elbin(.)co/m

The post office in the city is facing the Fire God Temple, which is only a street away from the Fire God Temple. At such a close distance, the demons with low cultivation cannot hide at all.

As for the demons with a high cultivation base, there is no need to hide in the crowd, and this management method naturally cannot prevent them.

Lu Heng couldn't get into the post house where the caravan stayed tonight because there were cultivators, so he said goodbye to them on the gallop road.

Although demon cultivators are also good and bad, those demon cultivators who don't eat humans can also live in the post.

This woman is so strange and her temperament is also different from that of ordinary people. They are just common businessmen and dare not to bother her.

So Xin Sheng sighed and said, "Let's go back to the house and ask the kitchen to send the food directly to the house."

Xin Sheng's words naturally got the agreement of the two old brothers.

But just as they were going downstairs, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them.

"Eh? Isn't this brother Xin Sheng? I didn't expect to meet you in this Baishi city. It really is fate."

The familiar laughter made Xin Sheng stop and look back.

In the hall, a bearded businessman had stood up and waved to them with a smile, "Man, if you don't mind, why don't you sit down and eat with me?"

Xin Sheng looked at the bearded man in surprise, thought for a while, and finally remembered the identity of the other party.

A smile also appeared on his face, "Who is it... It's Brother Liu, haha... It's a coincidence that you have also come to Baishi city."

With the two old brothers beside him, Xin Sheng walked towards the bearded man with a smile and said, "I've not seen you for three years since I left Ten Thousand Needle city."

When Xin Sheng and his three men came, the companions around the bearded man also stood up one after another, and everyone saluted each other.

Although the table was full, they still found a waiter to add three stools and barely squeezed into the table.

For businessmen, they travel far and wide, but they can also meet many interesting people, so they are naturally happy to meet old friends in another country.

The atmosphere on the dinner table became more heated and noisy after Xin Sheng and his old brothers joined.

Laughter sounded from time to time, and everyone talked about some things they had encountered after their separation, as well as their plans of travel to Baishi city this trip.

In between the drinks and preparations, the sky gradually darkened.

But everyone didn't mean to break up. Even though the dishes on the table had been finished, the laughter still kept going, and everyone drank till they were red and happy.

With the passage of time, the people eating on the second floor also increased to several groups. In addition to Xin Sheng, they never left the table which also includes the woman in red beside the window.

She monopolized a table by herself, drank wine leisurely, and served a dish or two from time to time. But because of her special temperament, no one dares to disturb her and all avoid meeting her eyes.

During this period, the back kitchen took the initiative to cook for the woman. The Posthouse steward's respectful attitude towards the woman made Xin Sheng and others reconfirm that the red haired woman's identity was indeed distinguished.

Fortunately, they didn't rush up to disturb her...

In the sound of talking and laughing, someone asked Xin Sheng about their current situation.

Later, they talked about the fact that the cultivator invited by Xinsheng is now leaving and they will next find another cultivator to protect them in Baishi city.

And the Wolf God they met in the wilderness.

When talking about this, Xin Sheng and his old brothers were all smiling and worshipping the Wolf God.

And the rest of the people heard that Xin Sheng was lucky to have the wine given by the Wolf God and the wonders of the peach blossom wine, and they were even more envious.

Among the laughter of the crowd, only the red haired woman by the window turned her head in surprise and looked this way.

"Oh?" The red haired woman murmured a little surprised, "Wolf God?"

She smiled, but didn't speak. As she sat by the window, leisurely drinking the wine, she listened to the businessmen nearby talking about the extraordinary of the Wolf God in high spirits.

The word "Fate" is really interesting.

The woman smiled and drank another glass of wine.
