The Lone Walker

The tables of Chen Fan, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi were filled with all kinds of delicious food, including golden roasted lamb skewers, fragrant braised fish, and steaming dumplings and noodles. Each one was a delicacy they had not tasted for a long time.

When the waiter at the tavern saw these three generous guests, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at them. Their temperaments were unique, especially Chen Fan. Although he was dressed simply, the heroism and calmness revealed between his brows made people dare not underestimate him.

The waiter came forward and asked attentively if he needed more wine or food. Fatty Wang waved his hand, indicating that he wanted a few more jars of good wine.

After eating and drinking, the three began to talk about their adventures in the Jingjue Ancient City.

Chen Fan recounted his fierce battle with the strange beast and how he used his cultivation to break the cracks in time and space. Hu Bayi shared the various traps they encountered in the ancient city and how to cleverly break them.

Fatty Wang vividly described their battle of wits and courage with other treasure hunters, and how they united as one in times of crisis to fight against powerful enemies.

Their story aroused the interest of the diners around them, and many people gathered around and listened attentively.

Whenever they talked about the thrilling parts, the crowd would burst into exclamations and applause. Chen Fan, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi were also happy to share their experiences with others. They felt that these stories were not only their memories, but also precious treasures worth passing on.

As the night went on, the guests in the tavern gradually left, leaving only Chen Fan and his friends still chatting. The tavern owner was also attracted by their story and personally brought a pot of fine aged wine as a sign of respect. The three thanked the owner for his kindness and drank again.

Finally, when the last drop of wine was finished, Chen Fan stood up and said to Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi: "Brothers, we had a great time tonight, but there is a new journey waiting for us tomorrow. Let's go back and rest, gather our strength, and prepare for new challenges."

Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi nodded in agreement, and the three of them paid the bill, left the tavern, and returned to their respective residences. The stars in the night sky twinkled, as if they were also shining for their upcoming new adventure.

The next morning, Chen Fan, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi gathered at the city gate, ready to embark on a new journey. There were already many caravans and travelers at the city gate, busy preparing to set off, the neighing of horses and the rolling of wheels intertwined, forming a lively picture.

The three of them rode on their prepared horses and headed off into the distance. Their figures stood out in the morning sun, as if they were three warriors about to conquer an unknown world. Their stories will continue to be written in the new journey, becoming an immortal legend in the hearts of more people.

On that morning when the dawn was just breaking, the figures of Chen Fan, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang were particularly eye-catching at the city gate.

Their horses are strong and agile. They carry simple bags and necessary equipment and are ready to embark on a new journey.

Inside and outside the city gates, the noise of caravans and the conversations of travelers can be heard one after another, but in their hearts, there is only infinite longing for the future and desire for adventure.

As the city gate slowly closed, the three of them spurred their horses and galloped towards the mountains in the distance. Their destination was a mysterious place called "Misty Mountain", which was said to hide ancient secrets and unknown treasures.

They heard the news by accident in the tavern when an old man drunkenly told the legend of Misty Mountain, which aroused their great interest.
