Chapter 153 The Journey to Fengdu City

The banquet didn’t last long. After all, they still had to travel the next day.

After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Ping had everyone start eating. After eating, everyone washed up and waited for the next day’s departure. At the back of the mountain of the academy, there was a small bamboo house.

The master and disciple in the bamboo house had just finished their simple dinner.

Then, they returned to their respective rooms.

After returning to their rooms, He Xiangjiang did not sleep.

Instead, he held a pen and wrote in a notebook.

In this notebook, all the favors that he and his master had received along the way were recorded.

After He Xiangjiang wrote and drew, he put down the pen.

He turned to the first page of the notebook.

Then, he began to read in a low voice.

Aunt Wang, Longjing Village, September 12 of Gengchen Year. Because they felt sorry for us, they gave us two steamed buns…

Uncle Li Hui, Weishan Village, September 20 of Gengchen Year. He opened a blacksmith shop, and he was willing to let me help him. Then, he paid me the corresponding wages…

Aunt Su, Zitan Village, September 24 of Gengchen Year. She promised to let me look after the cattle, and then she gave us a meal..

According to He Xiangjiang, these people were all benefactors to him.

He’ll have to pay back twice as much in the future.

Almost every time the young Taoist priest added a new stroke to the book, he would read it again from the beginning.

Tonight was the same. He kept reading until the last line.

Unknown Fusheng City people, a little girl in red, and she looked beautiful. October 3 of Gengchen Year. Because she beat me up, she gave me a valuable stone that glows…

After reading the last line, He Xiangjiang did not close the book.

The book stopped at the page where he had last written on.

The young Taoist priest’s eyes were fixed on the words “little girl in red”.

Just as He Xiangjiang was still in a daze, the old Taoist priest pushed the door open and entered.

He Xiangjiang was shocked.

“Master, can you knock on the door in the future?”

The old Taoist priest looked at his disciple and said in a bad mood.

“Look at your guts. There are only two of us in the whole back mountain. Are you afraid of thieves?”

He Xiangjiang ignored the old Taoist priest and closed the book. He wrapped it carefully with a piece of oil paper.

Seeing He Xiangjiang being so careful, the old Taoist priest teased him.

“Yo, you have grown up. Did you write a love letter?”

“Come, come, let me have a look.”

He Xiangjiang glared at the old Taoist priest and said in a resentful tone.

“Master! Stop fooling around.”

The old Taoist priest chuckled.

“Alright, alright. I just came to tell you to sleep early.”

“We’ll set off for Xianlai Island early tomorrow morning, or else we won’t be able to make it.”

The master and disciple had just arrived at Fusheng City today.

Seeing the old Taoist priest in such a hurry, He Xiangjiang asked curiously. “That urgent? How long before the ferry leaves?”

The old Taoist priest smiled meaningfully.

“I didn’t say we are going to catch the ferry. You should hurry up and sleep. I’ll call you tomorrow morning.”

With that, the old Taoist priest left, not giving He Xiangjiang the chance to ask any more questions. Anyway, it was not the first time that his master had said such strange words.

He Xiangjiang did not think too much about it and lay down to sleep.

The next morning.

Jiang Ping washed up as soon as dawn broke. Then, he went to lift the three little girls out of bed.

The three little girls reluctantly dragged their bodies to wash up.

After washing up and eating breakfast, Jiang Ping led a group of people out of the door.

There was a horse carriage at the door.

Old Zhao, the butler of the Hundred Treasures House, led the horse and waited for Jiang Ping to come out.

After he handed the horse’s reins to Qiu Chi, Old Zhao bowed respectfully to Jiang Ping.

Jiang Ping also bowed in return.

“Mr. Jiang, this is the best horse in the entire Fusheng City.” “Its leg strength is enough to run 30 to 40 miles. Then, you can stop to feed some grains and let it rest for a moment.”

“Yesterday, the map that our director gave you indicated the place where you can rest for the night when you reach Xianlai Island.”

Jiang Ping laughed.

“Thanks.”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Jiang Ping carried the three little girls into the carriage one by one.

Then, he boarded the carriage himself.

After notifying Qiu Chi, the carriage headed out of the city.

At the city gate, Zi Yue and Feng Dan were waiting for them.

They heard that Jiang Ping and the others were leaving today.

Feng Dan was afraid that the person would not even greet them. In order to hurry, they set off before dawn.

So she had been waiting for a long time.

Zi Yue had been standing there with her for a long time.

Feng Dan’s eyes were a little unfocused. From time to time, she would tiptoe and look into the city.

“Yue’er, do you think he won’t leave through this door?”

Zi Yue held onto Feng Dan’s hand and said.

“Don’t worry. If he doesn’t leave through this city door, they will have to take a long detour, so they will definitely appear.” Feng Dan was slightly relieved after hearing this, and she replied softly.

A moment later, Feng Dan said to Zi Yue.

“Yue’er, I’ve decided. When I see him later, I’ll tell him how I feel.”

“What do you think?”

When Zi Yue heard this, she was stunned for a moment and did not reply.

Feng Dan saw that Zi Yue did not reply for a long time, so she patted her shoulder. “Yue’er?”

“Ah…”

“I’m asking you. What do you think?”

Zi Yue turned her head away so that Feng Dan couldn’t see her expression.

“Sure, you decide. You don’t have to ask me.”

Feng Dan replied unhappily.

Soon, the sound of horse hooves could be heard.

Jiang Ping’s carriage appeared in their sight. When the carriage arrived in front of Feng Dan and Zi Yue, Qiu Chi pulled the reins and stopped the carriage.

In the carriage, Jiang Ping poked his head out and asked.

“Old Qiu, what’s wrong?”

Qiu Chi raised his head in the direction of the two women.

Jiang Ping looked in his direction.

Then, he jumped off the carriage and said to Qiu Chi.

“You can drive the carriage first. I’ll catch up with you later.”

Liu’er’s little head poked out of the window.

“Daddy, where are you going?”

Jiang Ping said. “Be good, Daddy will catch up with you later.” The little girl replied with an “oh” and withdrew her head.

Then, Qiu Chi continued to drive the carriage forward.

Jiang Ping walked in front of Feng Dan and Zi Yue.

He cupped his hands and bowed.

“Thank you, ladies, for coming to the city gate to see us off.”

Zi Yue also cupped her hands and said.

“Mr. Jiang, you have given us spirit stones. This is the least we could do.”

Feng Dan nodded as well. Jiang Ping smiled and was about to bid farewell to the two women.

However, Feng Dan interrupted Jiang Ping, who was about to speak.

“Mr. Jiang, I want to talk to you about something.”

As soon as Feng Dan said this, Zi Yue sensibly lifted her feet and left the two of them.

Only when she reached a place where she couldn’t hear their conversation, then did Zi Yue stop.

Then, she turned her back and didn’t look at them.

Seeing Zi Yue avoid them, Jiang Ping was a bit puzzled and asked.

“May I know what Miss Feng wants to say to

me?”

Feng Dan’s face turned red before she could speak. Zi Yue turned her back to the two of them and bit her lower lip with her teeth.

No one knew what she was thinking at this moment.

Seeing that Feng Dan didn’t speak for a long time, Jiang Ping reminded her. “Miss Feng?”

Only then did Feng Dan stammer out that sentence.

“I don’t know if Mr. Jiang can see it, but do you know who am I thinking of?”
