On the wilderness, eight fast horses were galloping, and behind them was smoke and dust.
They did not take the official road, but Daolin deliberately took them to avoid it, because to get to Longcheng from Shangzhou County, they need to cross the Black Rock Mountains, and the water pool there should be kept as mysterious as possible to avoid being discovered by others.
As for the detour, the Six Ghost Generals didn't care. Their mission was to follow Daolin, as long as they went wherever Daolin went.
Xiaoru, who was familiar with the road, was a little confused. At first, she thought that Daolin had something to do when he walked this way. But after walking for a while, she found that Daolin was just taking a detour, so she couldn't help but go to Daolin. .
Daolin told her the reason he originally planned to tell Liu Guijiang, which was that Liu Guijiang's original immediate boss died there, and he was afraid that they would be sad if they knew about it.
With the explanation, Xiaoru no longer had any doubts. In fact, she didn't blame Daolin for taking the detour, she was afraid that Daolin would get lost. After all, Daolin's road-crazy incident often happened after their meals in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. funny conversation piece.
Daolin and the others walked neither hurriedly nor slowly. They usually raced against time when rushing, but now that they had nothing to do, they were enjoying the pleasant time of the journey.
The seven people who followed Daolin also tasted Daolin's cooking skills again. The most emotional one was Xiaoru. She had never tasted Daolin's cooking.
Because even in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Dolin is not easy to cook. Guests who can be cooked by Dolin himself usually eat all the food, so this makes up for the regret she has always had in her heart.
The careful Daolin also discovered some changes in Xiaoru on the road, so when they settled in a town called Yongyuan, Daolin went to find Xiaoru again.
After meeting Xiaoru, Daolin asked straight to the point: "I noticed that you have been in a bad state these past few days. Is there something on your mind?"
Xiaoru was very grateful when she heard that Daolin cared about her. Since she left her master, not many people really cared about her.
At the very least, the Li family didn't really care about him. Instead, they trained him as a bodyguard, even a bodyguard who would warm Li Aimin's bed in the future.
This made her childhood full of shadows. Fortunately, Li Aimin never forced her to do anything she didn't like.
Now that she was getting closer to Dragon City and Li Junjie, the head of the Li family, she felt a lot of pressure in her heart.
"It's nothing..." Although Xiaoru was grateful, there were some words she didn't want to say.
"Although I don't know why you are like this, but in my opinion, there is nothing that can't be solved by going shopping. So, it's still early, I will accompany you to go shopping in the town, just to relax." Dolin said with a smile.
Xiaoru looked at the big boy who was younger than herself in front of her and saw his sincere eyes. She hesitated for a moment and nodded.
The two of them walked out of the inn together. Daolin glanced at Xiaoru beside him. In fact, he was not disgusted with this beauty hidden beside him, because Xiaoru had been silently doing her part of the job, and these Daolin They all see it, so he treats Xiaoru as a family member.
A family must be pure. Although Daolin is not afraid that the Li family will know some secrets about him and his friends, it is best to avoid such things if possible.
….
"Do you want to eat something? I just saw a night market street to the east. Let's go for a walk." Dolin pointed to the east and said.
"What they cook is definitely not as delicious as what you cook." Xiaoru said with a smile.
"No, you are wrong. In fact, there is not much difference in the taste of food, and there is not much difference between chefs. The reason why the taste is good or bad is Because of the mood of the chef who cooked the food and the mood of the diners when they tasted it.”
"For example, if you are in a bad mood, you may not be able to eat even the food I cooked myself. Even if you eat it, you will feel that the taste will be much worse."
"Also, if you are in a particularly good mood today, even if I make it imperfectly, it will taste delicious to you."
Listening to Daolin's explanation, Xiaoru nodded thoughtfully, what Daolin said
It does make sense and is very practical.
"Eating at the night market actually pays attention to happiness. Wandering among the crowds, listening to the shouts from the food stalls, and smelling the mixed flavors will make a person's mood beautiful. At this time, your taste and My sense of smell will improve my mood." Dowling emphasized his mood.
The two were walking and chatting when suddenly, a little boy ran into Dorian's arms.
The little boy quickly bent down to apologize. Dolin waved his hand indifferently. Seeing that Dolin was not angry, the little boy left quickly. Dolin accompanied Xiaoru and continued to walk forward. After about ten steps, he suddenly stopped. Come down.
He touched his pocket, and the one-yuan coin was missing.
"What's wrong?" Xiaoru asked when she saw Daolin stopped.
"Nothing, I met a little thief." Dolin smiled and shook his head.
"That little boy just now?" Xiaoru turned around to see where the little boy was on the street.
"It's okay, the things he stole can't be thrown away." Dolin said nonchalantly.
"What should we do?" Xiaoru asked.
"Let's go. I probably won't be able to go to the night market, but I think things here won't be boring." After saying this, Dolin turned around and walked in the direction where the little boy ran away.
In a small town like this, Dorian's perception has already been fully covered, and he knows exactly where the little boy went.
After turning two streets, Daolin and Xiaoru saw the little boy. At this time, the little boy was standing in front of a bun shop arguing with the boss.
"I'm sure this is silver! Just sell me a basket of steamed buns."
"No, I don't know what this thing is. Besides, even if it's silver, it's too light. I'll give you five buns at most."
"Boss, just do it. Five buns are really not enough. We have a lot of people."
"This is already very kind. I could only give you three buns. If I didn't see you as pitiful, I couldn't give you two for free." The bun shop owner said while tossing a coin in his hand.
Xiaoru touched Daolin's shoulder and whispered, "It seems he stole the money to buy steamed buns."
At this time, they were about twenty meters away from the little boy. The two warriors could clearly hear the conversation between the little boy and the bun shop owner.
In response to Xiaoru's reminder, Daolin nodded slightly. He made a silent gesture to Xiaoru. His attention was always on the little boy. He wanted to see how the little boy would deal with the situation in front of him. Condition.
The little boy seemed to know that the bun shop owner would not give him any more buns. He was depressed when suddenly an accident happened. He saw the coin disappear out of thin air when it fell into the hand of the bun shop owner.
