Outside Nandeng City.
Su Chen and Huang Qiaoqian each led a horse and carried luggage and backpacks. Behind them was Su Zhan, Huang Qianyue and others followed to see them off.
"Okay, I won't say any more. This is not the first time you have traveled far away. Take good care of our daughter-in-law."
Su Zhan and his wife looked at Su Chen, who was about to leave and would not come back in a short time. Their eyes were filled with mixed emotions and they opened their mouths. Su Zhan finally uttered only one sentence.
"Do not worry."
Su Chen comforted.
"Qian'er, you must listen to Xiaochen when you are outside."
"Don't be impulsive in everything. Whatever you want to do, listen to Xiao Chen's opinion."
Compared with Su Zhan's confidence in Su Chen, Huang Qianyue and his wife were very worried, but this was also a sign of their reluctance.
"Father, mother, don't worry, I know everything."
Huang Qiaoqian was also full of reluctance. Although it was not the first time she traveled far away, this was the first time she truly left her parents.
"Okay, it's getting late, it's time to set off."
Huang Qian jumped out and said.
"Go!"
Su Zhan patted Su Chen on the shoulder. When the young eagle leaves the nest, it no longer needs the protection of its parents' wings.
Su Chen held up his hand, then got on his horse, followed closely by Huang Qiaoqian.
"drive!"
Soon, the two figures gradually moved away.
Only when they were out of sight did Su Zhan and his wife Huang Qianyue look away.
“Once I leave here, I don’t know how far it will go when I return.”
Su Zhan and Huang Qianyue both sighed. After all, they were cultivating immortals, and the road ahead was bleak.
…
"Mr. Su!"
While riding on horseback, Su Chen vaguely heard someone calling Mr. Su, but he didn't pay attention and continued walking.
"Mr. Su!"
The sound continued to come, with a hint of anxiety.
"Xu..."
Su Chen straightened the reins and asked the horse to stop.
Looking back, he saw Huang Kaishan riding a horse and galloping to catch up.
"How did you come?"
Huang Kaishan smiled and said: "Mr. Su, you didn't tell me that you were leaving. If the servant hadn't told me that you were about to leave Nandeng City, I wouldn't have known about it."
Su Chen smiled and said: "What's the use of telling you, is it a good idea?"
Hearing this, Huang Kaishan raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "Of course I'm on my way. Mr. Su is going to Lingyun Academy and has to pass through Xijun City, so this part of the road is naturally on his way."
"I took this opportunity to return to the county town and report to the king."
"I'm going with you, sir. When I get to the county town, I can do my best as a landlord and entertain you two."
Su Chen nodded and said nothing.
Ever since, the twosome turned into a threesome.
…
The sun sets in the west and dusk arrives, and when I turn around I see a sky full of stars.
In the distance, I saw an inn standing on the wilderness.
"Mr. Su, it's getting late. Let's rest at the inn tonight."
Seeing the inn, Huang Kaishan spoke.
"I think so too."
Su Chen thought the same way. He didn't mind traveling all night, but he had to take Huang Qiaoqian into consideration, so he had better rest.
“Shutu Inn…”
When he got closer and saw the name of the inn, Su Chen whispered in his heart that it had some charm.
Walking into the inn, the waiter in gray cloth immediately greeted him with a smile, "You three, are you staying at the hotel?"
"I want three guest rooms and send some food to the rooms."
Huang Kaishan said, it's getting late now, but the business of this inn is very good. Most of the people in the lobby are seated. I think these people are the same as them.
Hearing this, the waiter showed an apologetic look on his face, "Oh, I'm sorry, sir, we only have two guest rooms here."
"Look..."
"Two rooms then."
Huang Kaishan thought about it, he could live in a room with Su Chen, and Huang Qiaoqian could live in a separate room.
"Good!"
A smile immediately broke out on the waiter's face, he turned his head and shouted at the counter: "Two guest rooms!"
After shouting, he bowed slightly and made an invitation gesture, "You three, please follow me."
The arrival of the three people attracted the attention of some people in the lobby. It was not until Su Chen and the others went upstairs and disappeared around the corner that they looked back.
"It looks like a fat sheep."
There was a table of four people eating wine, and one of them, a man with a mustache, said, smacking his mouth.
"slaughter?"
The elegant young man next to him took a sip of wine and said something completely inconsistent with his appearance.
"It looks delicious."
The burly man opposite him also nodded in agreement. Two little kids and one old guy, are you worried that you won't be able to eat?
And looking at those two little babies, you can tell that they come from a wealthy family.
"Be smart at night. If anyone slips up, don't say I'm unkind!"
The last middle-aged man with a Chinese-character face drank all the wine in the bowl, and his words in the calmest tone actually made the other three look serious and treat him seriously.
"clear!"
"Mistress, go and have a look."
The middle-aged man with a Chinese-character face said again.
Hearing this, the elegant young man got up and went upstairs.
The second floor of the inn.
The waiter took Su Chen and the others to the door of the only two guest rooms, "Three of you, this is it."
"Young man, go down and tell the chef to bring food as soon as possible."
After the waiter finished speaking, he left consciously.
"Mr. Su, we..."
Huang Kaishan was about to speak when he saw Su Chen holding Huang Qiaoqian's hand and walking into the guest room, then turned around and said, "The other room is yours."
Seeing the door slowly closing in front of him, Huang Kaishan showed a wry smile. They were just a young couple, so he was messing around.
In the room, Huang Qiaoqian's expression was a little narrow. She slept in the same room. Although it was a matter of time, sooner or later, this... wouldn't it be a bit too hasty.
Su Chen put down the baggage and said, "Don't sleep too deeply at night."
This sentence immediately made Huang Qiaoqian's heart skip a beat. Don't sleep too deeply. Is this a hint?
But Su Chen doesn't seem to be in a hurry, so what else does this sentence mean? !
It can be said that it is indeed Huang Qiaoqian. After combing it a few times, it came back.
"Brother Chen, is there something wrong with this inn?"
Huang Qiaoqian's pretty face had a solemn expression.
"It's not certain yet, but there's a high probability that it has nothing to do with the inn, so just keep an eye out."
Su Chen stretched his body as he spoke, and glanced at the wooden bed beside him intentionally or unintentionally, "It's already dark. Let's rest early after washing up."
The bed in the guest room is relatively narrow. After all, it is for a single person to rest. Two people can barely fit in, but physical contact is unavoidable.
Huang Qiaoqian had no doubt that he was there. She had been on the road all day, and the dust all over her body really needed to be washed away.
at the same time.
Huang Kaishan walked back and forth in another room, muttering, "It's better to remind Mr. Su."
When he went upstairs, he noticed that there were many eyes on them, so he paid more attention.
When they entered the room, they found someone secretly watching them at the corner of the corridor.
After thinking this, he opened the door and happened to bump into Su Chen who also opened the door.
Seeing this, Huang Kaishan quickly said: "Mr. Su, there is something wrong with this inn!"
Su Chen nodded, "Someone is targeting us, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight."
