Upstairs, it was relatively quiet. There was a small cubicle next to the window. Behind them was a screen depicted with Chinese wind. On it were pictures of the scenery and people; it was extremely elegant and lifelike. Jun Lin Yue looked out of the window. The streets were bustling with activity. Even though it was noisy here, it was clearly much quieter here.
(Happy Valentine's Day.) It is now just after midnight on the morning of February 14, 2016.)
Yun Dai Er drank a pot of tea and asked, "Hey, you got here really slowly. I saw you from afar and didn't dare to call out to you." What did you do on the way? That logic shouldn't be so slow, right? "
Jun Linyue acted as if he didn't hear him, as he looked out the window and sighed, "Wow, there's so many people here. It's even comparable to our Martial Competition! No, no, there were even more people than at the Martial Competition. This place is really awesome! "
Yun De'er looked at him speechlessly and said, "Look at your useless appearance." This place is not as lively as a street city in the Great Yang Imperial City. "
Jun Lanyue turned his head, pretending to be serious as he replied with surprise, "That's even more amazing!"
Yun Dai Er chuckled. "You really don't have any proper attitude. Of course it's lively over there. After all, this is the capital." "But I don't know what you came to Zhuzhou for. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Only then did Jun Lin Yue return to the main topic at hand. He took a sip of water, put his bag aside, and asked seriously, "Do you know where the Great Left City of Zhuzhou is?"
After thinking for a moment, Yun Dai Er replied, "I've checked in advance. There are fourteen cities in Zhuzhou and a deep mountain in the southwest. Your name is Desolate Land, so the Great Left City should be heading west. This is the border city of Zhuzhou... "Uh, let me think for a moment …"
Yun Dai Er frowned and thought deeply, her willow leaf-like eyebrows slanted and combed to the corner of her eyes. At this moment, she looked exceptionally enchanting, her happy face also appearing moving and cute.
"That should be the case. There's a written impression of Great Left City. It seems like there's no water route there, so we can only take the land route." Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Jun Lanyue staring at her. Yun Dai Er's face immediately flushed pink, but she still said, "Hey, what are you looking at!?" Did you hear that! "
"Ah, I heard it. Take the water path, take the water path, I'll listen to you! "Let's go faster this way!" For a moment, Jun Lanyue was at a loss for words. He felt awkward himself as well, and so he hastily dealt with the situation.
Not long after, the dishes in their restaurant were served. After a simple meal, the two of them left the noodle restaurant and headed towards the west.
It was late in the evening, and the temperature here wasn't too low. Jun Lin Yue and Yun Di'er were walking towards the west. Although the two of them stood side by side, they were not near each other. For some reason, Jun Linyue was still a bit wary of Yun Dai'er. In her heart, Yun Dai'er had already decided to leave the village.
Knowing that he was going to Zhuzhou, Yun Dai Er took the time to ask the local people for their names, locations, and rough itineraries and memorized them. In addition, since she had spent more than half a day with him, she had already familiarized herself with the surroundings. Although he had never been there, he was still like a local man half a day later, running around with Jun Lin Yue in tow.
The bank in Zhuzhou's Fringe City was not big, but it had a lot of power. People here like to do business, so there are a lot of little things that are both delicate and practical.
In one breath, Yun Dai'er had exchanged all the crushed silver in Jun Lanyue's hand for a copper coin, which was an entire package. However, since the two of them could not move, they exchanged two-thirds of the copper coins for silver notes to use when necessary.
However, the remaining copper coins in the bag were enough for them to stay in Zhuzhou for ten days or half a month.
In the evening, the two of them ate and drank to their heart's content. As they walked through the forest, they naturally sat down at Sharly's side to rest. There was a small stream in the forest that ran through the jungle. The stream was not wide, and a person could jump through it easily. However, the water in the stream was very clear. Although there wasn't much water in the stream, there were quite a few exquisite and beautiful pebbles.
Seeing these things, Yun De'er couldn't help squatting down, playing in the water, picking up rocks and catching small fish.
Jun Lanyue was enjoying himself watching her play. He leaned against the tree trunk and sighed before asking impatiently, "Hey, miss. When are we leaving?" Do you know the location of the Great Left City? "
With a "whoosh," a pebble was thrown at her. Jun Linyue reacted quickly and caught it in his hand with a 'pop'. Yun De'er continued, "If you don't believe me, you can go by yourself?" When Jun Linyue heard this, he was immediately angered. "If you had said so earlier, we would have asked the passersby!"
"Aiya, don't worry! Why would I lie to you? " Yun Tai'er lifted up the sleeves of her dress, revealing her snow-white arms. She leaned over and said gently, "As long as you're with me at night, you'll definitely find the Great Left City!"
Jun Lanyue was so frightened that he retreated a step. Embarrassed, he replied, "I think it's better if I ask the passerby!" After which, he turned around to leave. It was at this moment that Yunde pulled his hand and shouted, "Halt!"
Jun Lanyue trembled in fear and stopped in his tracks. In fact, in this strange place, Jun Lanyue was somewhat reliant on Yun Dai'er, because in his heart, Yun Dai'er seemed to be familiar with this place.
Jun Linyue turned around and said, "You …" If you don't mind, I'll go with you! "
Yun Tai'er laughed out loud. "The Marquis of Xuanwu! Jun Linyue! Marquis! As such a powerful official, he's actually afraid of this!? "
Jun Lanyue remained silent, his face red from holding in his emotions.
Yun Dai Er said seriously, "If you cross this stream and pass through the forest, you will be able to see the Great Left City." Jun Linyue asked in surprise, "So close?"
All right. Jun Lanyue admitted that he was surprised too early. This was because the forest was only a place to walk in. The two of them had already walked for two hours, and the cold wind gusted in the middle of the night. The forest was sinister and terrifying. No matter how great Yun Dai'er was during the day, she was still a little timid when it came to walking. Her body unconsciously moved closer to Jun Lin Yue.
However, Jun Linyue didn't seem to have any reaction to such an environment. He continued to look around while enjoying the scenery. There were lampstands along the roadside. Although the light waiting for them was dim, it could still illuminate this path. This wasn't the official way, but it was still very well cared for.
At first, Jun Lanyue was somewhat resistant to it, but then Yun'er leaned on him, one of her hands on his arm, and her body almost fell to his side. Fear could be seen in her eyes, as she often turned her head back, worrying that something was following them.
Jun Lin no longer resisted, and allowed the startled cry of the little girl. Four hours later, the two of them had sore feet and did not want to go any further.
