Chapter Seven, Challenge.

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Xie Yun: "..."

Xie Yun seems to be very familiar with Shaoyang--he seems to be able to feel at home wherever he goes, pointing out the scenery along the way and talking confidently. Zhou Fei suspected that he was making it up. When he saw him confidently entering a dazzling alley, Zhou Fei couldn't help but ask, "How do you know this place so well?"

How did it turn out like this? Xie Yun's voice came from the roof of the car, "Announcing to the world that I was defeated by a little yellow-haired girl?"

If you speak sensibly...

The leader pretended not to understand her aggressive words, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I dare not, I dare not. Please forgive me, madam. I will find a girl who wields a broken snow knife."

Zhou Fei felt very ashamed and quickly said, "No, it's all..."

However, as he approached step by step, suddenly people no longer paid attention to his appearance - this person's footsteps were steady, his shoulders remained motionless while walking, and he had a dignified bearing. Clearly, he was a master who excelled both internally and externally.

Xie Yunding, with the face of a middle-aged scholar, smiled proudly and opened the folding fan, fanning it a few times, sighing, "You insisted on asking, but you won't believe it... sigh, women."

These girls seem to be quite familiar with Xie Yun, but for some reason, they are not presumptuous towards him. Instead, they show some restraint and respect.

He didn't finish speaking. A slightly panicked girl hurriedly walked into the backyard, and whispered in the landlady's ear.

As soon as she finished speaking, a young girl came over with a tray and handed over a brocade pouch.

Zhou Fei was about to take a step forward, but was stopped by Lady Ni Chang's outstretched hand.

Xie Yun has finished writing his absurd new play. Zhou Fei finally managed to drive the carriage smoothly. Wu Chuchu is also becoming less and less reserved as a young lady. I wonder if it's because of sudden external pressure. Zhou Fei seems like a last-minute crammer, anxiously worrying every day that someone will catch her "cheating" and diligently practicing her broken snow knife day and night.

He couldn't understand how these itinerant helpers recognized him, and how capable Mr. Bai was. Even if they had used some method to recognize him, they could have waited for him to return to the inn before sending someone to intercept him. Why did they have to directly approach the Feathered Robe Troupe and needlessly offend a lady in a beautiful dress?

Zhou Fei's thinking is relatively simple. She is not afraid of anything else, but mainly because even Li Jinrong has always claimed that she did not receive the true transmission of the Breaking Snow Sword. She has only learned a little bit of the superficial knowledge and keeps asking people to call her "successor". It feels like she is tarnishing her ancestors. Therefore, she snorted at that time, which can be considered as agreeing with Xie Yun's words.

The young man walked step by step to Zhou Fei's front, looking her up and down: "Are you Nan Dao?"

What's there to be proud of being talkative with big ears? Zhou Fei was not in the mood to argue with him, waved her hand, and bluntly said, "According to your 'level', at best I'm just a second-rate person."

Zhou Fei understood, she felt that Xie Yun's selling of performances was not for travel expenses, but for buying information.

She immediately fluttered her eyelids, with a charming and varied smile, but her words were not polite: "Here, I only have songwriters and unfortunate girls. There are no distinguished guests, only a bunch of lowly people. Who do you want?"

The suspicious gaze of the landlady first fell on Xie Yun.

That young man had a slight accent. He spoke with great effort, biting down heavily on each word. He stared at Zhou Fei and asked, "What exactly is this 'Qingyun Gou' thing you mentioned earlier?"

Lady Ni Chang gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, leaning lightly against the door frame, and said with a smile, "As a delicate woman who only knows how to play the qin and sing, I wonder where I have offended you, gentlemen, to make you come to block the door in such a menacing manner? The ladies in this courtyard are all as delicate as flowers, each with very timid hearts. They cannot withstand such audacity. If they are frightened, how can it be tolerated?"

Don't you know that she is from the Li family?

Zhou Fei: "..."

Zhou Fei rolled her eyes: "What did you hear the storyteller say about me?"

The name of the Qingly Cloud Gully "Qing" is actually a dark cloud!

But why did Li Yan leave the Forty-Eight Villages?

A young man who has just entered the world, truly challenging the leader of the Qinglong gang alone, and after winning the battle, he departs triumphantly... . ... Hearing about her defeating Shen Tianshu suddenly seems much more credible.

Zhou Fei suddenly frowned and came up with a possibility. She asked Xie Yun, who was on the roof of the car, "Do you think Shen Tianshu is plotting against me behind my back?"

Are you not afraid of offending Li Jinrong?

Xie Yundao: "Are you going or not? If you're not going, I'll go by myself."

Zhou Fei: "..."

Thank you for still refusing to accept the good and persisting endlessly: "As a so-called 'hero' who neglects physical exercise and fails to distinguish between different grains, you might end up begging for food. By the way, hero, do you know how to sing 'Counting Treasure'? Otherwise, I can teach you a few lines on the spot."

Li Yan has not yet graduated, it is impossible for her to come out on her own, there must be elders accompanying her. According to the letter from Li Jinrong to Zhou Yitang, their destination should be Jinling. There is no need, and it is impossible to go to the northern border, and it is impossible to encounter people from Beidou.

Zhou Fei flipped her wrist without thinking, and used a wooden chopstick as a knife. With a move called "Dividing the Sea", she struck and broke Xie Yun's chopstick.

Zhou Fei: "..."

She suddenly saw Zhou Fei behind Xie Yun, and looked at Zhou Fei with a pair of peach blossom eyes for a moment, saying with a suppressed smile, "Where did this light beauty come from?"

After a moment of contemplation, Xie Yun beckoned to Zhou Fei and said, "Let's go take a look too."

However, how did such a groundless rumor spread?

Perhaps the previous period was too thrilling, and the following days can be described as peaceful.

Lady Nishang frowned slightly and turned to look at Xie Yun with Zhou Fei.

After listening to the shocking "Martial Arts Legends" by the songstress, she couldn't sleep well for several nights. Sometimes she dreamed of the Big Dipper and the Four Symbols surrounding her with Tai Chi and Bagua, and sometimes she dreamed of her mother using a thick whip to spin her like a top, making her spin hundreds of times on tiptoe. The next day, she woke up dizzy and disoriented.

Anyway, the Poxue Sword did appear at the Sanchun Inn, and not long after, Qinglongzhu died under mysterious circumstances.

Xie Yun's eyes flickered: "I can exchange..."

Zhou Fei: "..."

For such a long time, Zhou Fei has been claiming to be honest and law-abiding, and has never caused any trouble. She was a little confused for a moment and didn't know how these people found her. Xie Yun suddenly realized that it must be Mr. Bai who asked the wandering monks to keep an eye on her. Upon learning that someone was secretly looking for Zhou Fei, Xie Yun took the opportunity to sell a favor.

"Catch me?" Xie Yun raised an eyebrow lightly. His eye corner, which was covered by fake wrinkles, twitched slightly, revealing a hint of unprecedented sarcasm and coldness on his face. "I haven't violated any laws, so why should he catch me? Even if he is here now, he wouldn't dare to say the word 'catch' to me."

The landlady finished reading it in no time, then she pondered for a moment and looked up at Xie Yun.

Li Yan has nothing to do at home all day long, and her older siblings are too lazy to bother with her. Because she is pretty and sweet-tongued, the senior brothers and elders in the village are very tolerant of her, gradually nurturing her into a lively and playful good-for-nothing. Her martial arts skills are famously bad, but she is very skilled in eating, drinking, and having fun. When Zhou Fei heard the jingling bells on her body, he got a headache and was particularly impressed.

Wu Chuchu had no choice but to intervene in order to mediate: "No talking during meals, no speaking during sleep, and fighting is also not allowed!"

Zhou Fei reached out and pushed away his dog's paw.

The boss's wife's eyes shifted, and with a chuckle, she said, "Alright, I'll take it, as per our usual agreement."

Zhou Fei: "..."

Wu Chuchu inexplicably lifted the car curtain and poked her head out, asking, "What are you talking about? Uh... wait, are you two talking again?"

No money to buy!

Zhou Fei said strangely: "Who has nothing better to do than to make up such rumors? Is it interesting?"

Yang Jin held her long sword and swept it forward, saying, "My sword is here, where is yours?"

"Selling my singing skills, tsk, don't say it in such a derogatory way as if I'm selling my body." Xie Yun corrected lightly, "Talking about the hardships I've been through is nauseating even for myself, let alone telling others. Borrowing my skills to earn some money for travel expenses, isn't that making the most of what I have?"

Xie Yun was somewhat surprisedーhe knew that behind the scenes of the itinerant group, there must be Mr. Bai's surveillance. Mr. Bai was on a mission and would certainly not be willing to let him get away like this. The old rascal had sharp ears and was not surprised by his "Qiansui You" identity. The name "Qiansui You" was made famous by Lady Nishang's "Feathered Robe Troupe," which happened to be in Shaoyang. If he were to head from Hengshan to Shu, along the southern border of the Southern Dynasties, this place would be a must-pass route. Xie Yun was almost certain to stay here and would most likely pay a visit to Lady Nishang. ... Mr. Bai anticipated his arrival, so it seemed reasonable to wait here for him. ... To prevent this link, Xie Yun even deliberately disguised himself, and it seemed to have passed off.

The leader of the traveling group interrupted him and said, "Ajing, it is inappropriate to say this in front of Lady Nishang's door."
