Peerless Young Master

Xiao Xuan opened her eyes wide, and her slender eyelashes kept trembling.

Did she lose the pass?

Where can I find the road guide?

When will the road pass be available?

The classic three questions come to mind.

Faced with the scolding, although she didn't understand what was going on, she was definitely in a bad mood.

Just as she was retorting, she saw Li Xuan's eyes flickering to signal her, and he was looking at the carriage on the side.

Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, then she remembered.

Yes, they left Black Dragon Mountain, sleeping in the open air all the way, not daring to take the main road, and could only take detours through mountain roads and remote paths. Isn’t it because they didn’t have a guide?

Now we are at the gate of Yunyao City. Without a pass, we can't get in at all.

Thinking of this, she seemed to understand Li Xuan's thoughts a little, and her face immediately fell: "I'm sorry, I don't know when I lost it."

Finally getting the idea, Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the foot that had just been stepped on, a plan came to mind. He walked over and pointed his finger at Xiao Xuan's eyebrows:

"Just say sorry, but there are no signs right now, so how are you going to let us get in? Are you going to ask us to go back the same way?

You can't even handle such a small thing, what's the point of having you? I should have sold you so I could get some food."

Xiao Xuan's face suddenly turned gloomy, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and whispered: "Don't go too far, you are just taking revenge on me."

Li Xuan coughed twice, touched his nose with his hand, and took two steps back to prevent Xiao Xuan from using any tricks on him.

"What happened? Why are you so angry?"

Hearing the argument, Su Wan lifted a corner of the car curtain and asked.

Li Xuan walked to the side, his face suddenly becoming ugly: "Miss Su, you don't know, we came from the distant Qingfeng City, the road was bumpy, and we slept in the open air. I didn't expect that the pass was lost at some point.

How can we enter the city without a pass?

If I were to return the same way, I wouldn't know if I could get home safely, and how would I face my parents' spirits in heaven?

As he spoke, he reached out to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Lost Guide"

Su Wan frowned. Losing the pass was a serious matter.

You must have a pass to enter the city.

Suddenly, she thought of something and said apologetically: "Sir, if you don't mind, you can consider me as a slave. It's just a temporary measure. Once we enter the city, you can go to the government office to get a new one."

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Su." Li Xuan bowed with a smile on his face, and finally he was able to sneak into the city in broad daylight.

"It's no trouble. Compared to your life-saving grace, it's nothing."

Soon, under Su Wan's protection, the group successfully entered the city.

After finding a place, the carriage stopped and Su Wan got off the carriage and thanked him earnestly: "Master Li, I left in a hurry and didn't bring anything with me.

If you have time, please come to the Su Mansion. I will thank you generously."

Li Xuan said righteously, "Miss Su, although we are not from the Jianghu, we also know that we should help those in need when we see injustice. In that kind of situation, anyone who sees it will help.

Miss Su, helping us get into the city is already a huge favor, as for the large sum of money, forget it."

After some greetings, Su Wan got into the carriage and left.

Li Xuan muttered quietly: "Why is it different from what is written in the book?"

"What are you mumbling about?" Xiao Xuan asked casually.

Watching the carriage leave, Li Xuan slowly said: "The book says that women who save their lives often repay their gratitude with their bodies, but why is it that when it comes to me, it becomes a huge reward for gratitude."

Xiao Xuan looked at him with disdain: "Don't dream. She is a lady from a noble family. She only likes talented men and outstanding people. How could she be like you?"

Li Xuan was dissatisfied: "What's wrong with me? I can wash clothes, cook, read and write. I don't know how to do that."

"Tsk" Xiao Xuan said with disdain again.

"Okay, stop arguing and find a place to stay quickly." Xiao Yidao shook his head, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

On both sides of the street, the cries of vendors can be heard one after another, making the street very lively.

There are all kinds of stalls, some selling fresh fruits, some selling handmade toys, and some selling rouge and powder, the aroma is fragrant;

Pedestrians are shoulder to shoulder, cars are everywhere, and occasionally you can see young men and women in gorgeous clothes walking slowly surrounded by servants, which adds a bit of vitality to this bustling street.

This scene made Xiao Xuan like a curious baby, full of curiosity and novelty about the outside world, and two eyes were not enough.

On the contrary, Li Xuan and Xiao Yidao seemed calm.

The former has seen much more prosperity than here; the latter is knowledgeable and has even been to the capital several times, not to mention Yunyao City.

"Dad, have you been here before?" Xiao Xuan asked curiously.

Li Xuan was also paying attention quietly. Xiao Yidao was a martial arts master who had traveled all over the country. He had his own style of doing things and it was impossible for him to act on a whim.

Xiao Yidao looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes full of stories: "I came here a few years ago and stayed here for a few years. I thought I would never have the chance to come back."

There is another saying: I met your mother here and had you.

“The Lu Yinde matter has been settled, now we need to find a place to stay;

"Boss Xiao, since you are somewhat familiar with this place, how do you find a place to live?" Li Xuan said, feeling a little tired after walking all the way and wandering around.

"Go to the Yahang, find a place to stay first, and then we can do other things after we get familiar with the situation here."

As they talked, the three of them prepared to go to the pawnshop to see if there was any house for rent.

"Dafeng Shop"

After an incense stick of time, Li Xuan and his group arrived at a brokerage shop. When the three of them walked in, they saw many sketches of mansions hanging inside, and several servants introducing the mansions to the guests.

The three of them walked towards the counter, and Li Xuan said, "Boss, there is a two-story house nearby. No one has died there. It's a little far from the street, so just don't make too much noise at night."

"Sir, please come this way."

The boss looked enthusiastic and took the three people to a portrait and said: "These three shops all meet your requirements, and the prices are almost the same. I wonder which one you would like."

How much is it per month and how to rent it?

"The cheap ones are one tael of silver, the expensive ones are three taels of silver, and the deposit is three and the payment is six."

"Boss Xiao, what do you think?"

"This one," Xiao Yidao pointed at the one in the middle.

"Okay, sir, come with me here to register." As he said that, the boss asked the servant to take down the portrait and put it in the cabinet to indicate that it had been sold.

Just when Xiao Yidao was registering with the boss, Li Xuan was looking around bored and accidentally saw a middle-aged man.

This person seemed to be arguing with the servant, and finally left with an angry look on his face.

"What are you looking at?" Xiao Xuan looked inside the store, but there was nothing interesting.

"The man just now seemed to be Miss Su's groom." Li Xuan's eyes flashed, and then he came to the servant: "I heard you arguing with that man just now. Did something happen?"

"What does it have to do with you?" the servant asked unhappily.

Li Xuan felt the pocket of his sleeve, but it was empty. He walked to the counter and asked Xiao Xuan for a piece of silver. Then he walked to the servant and handed the silver over.

"Sir, that guy just now looked like someone who owed me money. I kept asking him for money but he kept making excuses. I didn't expect to meet him here."

After receiving the small change, the servant's mood improved and he explained, "This man had previously booked a house from me and paid a deposit; but now he tells me that he doesn't want it anymore and wants me to return the deposit.

How could such a thing happen? Not only did I waste so much of my time, but many customers wanted to use this house, but I turned them all down.

If you say you don’t want it now, what about my losses?”

"Thank you for letting me know. I'll go find him and settle the score later."

After knowing the whole story, Li Xuan didn't say anything else.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Xuan asked curiously.

"nothing"

Afterwards, the three of them followed the shop boy to the mansion.

After a conversation, the three of them got the key to the mansion and walked in. Although it was a bit desolate, it was still very nice overall.

"Please clean up here, I'm going out for a while."

Xiao Yidao handed the key to Li Xuan and then left the mansion.

A moment later, he appeared in the suburbs, and in front of him was a grave covered with weeds and finger-thin branches.

Xiao struck out with a knife and a palm, and his powerful internal force turned into a blade-like air wave, clearing away the weeds and branches around the grave.

He squatted down and reached out to touch the tombstone, which read: "Tomb of my late wife Wenxuan."
