Chapter 132: Set off again

A leaf falls to tell the world that autumn is everywhere. Although the land of China is not yet in early autumn, it is still late summer and the weather gradually turns cooler. Some of the leaves that are not growing well begin to fall from the branches.

It was midsummer when I was in Jiuwu City. I have been out of the city for a few days now, and the leaves are decorated with withered golden yellow. Occasionally, a few leaves are older and fall to the ground, but they are only a few.

After Yun Zangfeng got the endless sword technique carved on the stone wall under the well of the dilapidated inn, he chose to set off. When he entered the city one day, he discussed with a boatman that he would go down to Hangzhou along the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou, then take the road to Chi Mansion, and then arrive at Jiangning County City.

When he left, Yu Niang watched Yun Zangfeng and Hu Li leave in the carriage.

Yun Zangfeng drove in front, and Hu Li sat obediently behind the curtain of the carriage door. With the sound of horse hooves, the solid wood paneled carriage staggered and further away.

"Sister Yu Niang is so pitiful." Hu Li poked his head slightly from behind the curtain and said in a low voice to Yun Zangfeng's ear. While speaking, he also used the light from the corner of his eyes to observe Yun Zangfeng's face as if he was trying to see something from the change in Yun Zangfeng's face.

Hu Li's mind is actually very simple. She is not very knowledgeable about the world, just like a piece of white paper. At present, various theoretical thoughts are dyed on this piece of white paper, which Hu Li found to see. Among these theoretical thoughts, there are good and bad ones, but in the end, they are kind, and gentle thoughts occupy the majority.

People have compassion, saying that rabbits die and foxes are sad and hurt their species, or that benevolent people love others. In short, people have a sense of sympathy. When they see an animal about to be slaughtered, they will feel that the animal is very pitiful and cannot bear to eat its meat, let alone kill an animal with one's own hands.

However, this kind of compassion in people will gradually disappear with the polishing and continuous breakthrough of life. In the end, some people will become butchers, while others will become cold-blooded and indifferent people of roadside incidents.

Therefore, Hu Li was moved by this kind of compassion. Yu Niang and she could no longer be considered human in essence. Surviving in this human world is an alien. Living alone in this world is already a lonely thing, and no one can talk. That kind of loneliness just thinking makes Hu Li’s whole body cold.

In order to make Yu Niang less pitiful, Hu Li wanted to take Yu Niang with them on the road, and could talk along the way to comfort the loneliness of the two. However, Hu Li was afraid that Yun Zangfeng would think she was troublesome and did not dare to tell him openly, so she had to test it from the side.

Unfortunately, Hu Li was just a fledgling fox. She did not have the extremely deep cunning and acting skills of fake foxes, so Yun Zangfeng guessed some of Hu Li's thoughts, but he wanted to tease Hu Li, so he said: "Yes, Yu Niang is pitiful. Such a life experience is already miserable enough. She has to face the loneliness that no one can see or hear by herself. She is an amazing girl."

"Yes, I feel so too. Sister Yu Niang is really a brave girl. I would have helped her." Hu Li was so excited when she heard Yun Zangfeng agree with her thoughts, she even raised her voice a little. "Young Master, can we take Sister Yu Niang with us to Jiangning County City?"

Since he was determined to tease Hu Li, when talking about such a key issue, Yun Zangfeng would not agree easily. He pretended to be silent and said, "I don't think so. First, Yu Niang himself did not propose to go with us. I think it is not good for us to make a decision for others wishful thinking; secondly, humans and ghosts have different paths, Yu Niang is always not on the same path as us, so it is better to keep some distance so as not to cause trouble."

Hearing Yun Zangfeng's words, Hu Li felt a breath in her chest. She couldn't swallow or vomit, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

She thought to herself that she was also a monster. According to Yun Zangfeng's words, she was also a burden that caused trouble. She thought to herself that she should not continue to stay by Yun Zangfeng's side, even if she was just staying in the ruined inn, talking to Yu Niang was much better than following Yun Zangfeng.

Hu Li quickly flipped off the carriage, rolled on the ground twice, stood up and ran towards the dilapidated inn.

Fortunately, the carriage was still walking on the crowded street, and the horse was not running very quickly, otherwise Hu Li would have been injured.

While Hu Li was running, two lines of tears burst out involuntarily, and the grievance and discomfort in her heart surged up. She told herself to be stronger and not to cry, but she couldn't stop her tears. She could only wipe it constantly, but just after she wiped it dry, the tears flowed out again.

The moment Hu Li jumped off the car, Yun Zangfeng was stunned. He never thought that his words would cause Hu Li, who had always been extremely well-behaved, to react so much. At first, he thought it was because he did not agree to her request, and Hu Li was angry with her. When he thought about it, he felt that this was not something that Hu Li could do with his personality.

After a little thought, Yun Zangfeng slapped himself. He figured out the reason why Hu Li jumped off the car, and blamed him for his quick speech when he spoke, and did not think too much about Hu Li's feelings.

Seeing that Hu Li had already run away, it was too late to turn the carriage at this time. The crowds were crowded on the road and it was difficult for the carriage to turn around. Yun Zangfeng was also very anxious. He didn't care about the salutes on the carriage and the carriage, and immediately jumped out of the carriage and chased Hu Li, shouting Hu Li's name while chasing him.

Hu Li felt a lot of grievances but couldn't say it. She heard Yun Zangfeng calling her from behind, but she didn't dare to look back or speak. She knew in her heart that when she turned around, she would pounce on Yun Zangfeng's arms. When she made a sound, she would definitely be a hysterical cry.

The two of them chased each other and ran towards the inn. Yun Zangfeng thought that he had been practicing martial arts for many years and had a solid foundation, and his degree was the best in the world. He should be able to catch up with Hu Li soon, but he did not expect that Hu Li in such a sad state of mind, and his degree was actually three points faster than Yun Zangfeng, and he could not catch up with him at all.

The actions of jumping off the car have attracted the attention of many people, and at this time it has shown a shocking degree, and passers-by on both sides of the street are all looking at it.

Yun Zangfeng was secretly panicked. He didn't want someone to show his extraordinary place between him and Hu Li. He just wanted to be an ordinary person in the eyes of these ordinary people.

However, the situation was urgent, and Yun Zangfeng didn't care about that much. The degree under his feet was mentioned again and again. The enclaves on both sides of the street moved backwards. In the eyes of ordinary people, his and Hu Li's figures were already two black lights and shadows, flashing by.

When he arrived at the entrance, Hu Li stopped. As the two of them were in a hurry, when Hu Li stopped, Yun Zangfeng just came to Hu Li in front of him while gasping for breath. He gasped and said to Hu Li: "Hu Li, listen to me..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Niang walked from the inn to the door, because Hu Li and Yun Zangfeng were standing in the sun, and she didn't come out. She just asked between a distance in the inn: "What's wrong? Haven't you left? Why did Sister Hu Li come back crying?"

Yun Zangfeng was anxious, so naturally there was no good words on his lips. He said angrily: "I will explain this to you later." Then he pulled Hu Li's arm, trying to let Hu Li face him, but he did not expect Hu Li to stubbornly refuse to turn around.

Fortunately, Yu Niang is generous and has been a ghost for many years, and she has improved a lot. Perhaps she was also a woman who didn’t like temper during her lifetime. Seeing Yun Zangfeng feel like a mouse pulling a turtle and she has a feeling of smoothing out the situation.

Yu Niang said, "Sister Hu Li is unhappy. Young Master Yun should stop forcing her first, come in first."

After hearing this, Hu Li immediately walked into the inn, and Yun Zangfeng followed him with helplessness. He has been practicing for many years and is very powerful in martial arts. Not to mention that he is invincible in the world, there are few rivals in the world. He is not afraid of heaven or earth, but he is afraid that girls will shed tears in front of him, especially the tears shed because of himself.

There was naturally no tea and entertainment in the inn, and even after the carriage was gone, there was no place to sit. The three of them stood in a circle, without talking.

At this time, Hu Li had already healed a lot, but her eyes were still swollen. The tears on her face were still vaguely visible. She began to feel a little distressed that Yun Zangfeng had bought for him. She just rushed to jump out of the carriage, but she didn't think too much. At this time, she saw that it was already a lot dirty.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Yun Zangfeng felt that as a man who stood up, he should take the initiative to take responsibility, so he said, "Little Hu Li, don't feel uncomfortable. My words don't mean what you think. I was teasing you. After hearing your words, I planned to come back and discuss with your sister Yu Niang about whether you want to go with us. I just teased you. Don't be angry with me, okay?"

Hu Li was stupid and felt much better after crying. She had never been angry with Yun Zangfeng. At this time, she had nothing to be wronged when she heard Yun Zangfeng say this. But she didn't know why she simply lowered her head when she spoke at this time.

Regardless of whether it was a lie or not, at least Yun Zangfeng had already given an attitude of admitting his mistake. Yun Zangfeng thought Hu Li would at least say something to him, but he was still silent.

When Yu Niang heard Yun Zangfeng mention herself in her words, she asked, "Young Master Yun, let's talk about what's going on."

Yun Zangfeng glanced at Yu Niang, sighed, and said to himself, "I have to do this." Then, he told Yu Niang the whole story one by one, including his own guesses, and apologized to Yu Niang and Hu Li, saying that he shouldn't have made such jokes without his brain.

"Huh, sister Hu Li, I believe Mr. Yun is joking, so don't annoy him. If he really dislikes you, how can he keep you by his side at all times and let you go to Jiangning County City with him?" Yu Niang ignored him after hearing Yun Zangfeng's words, but said to Hu Li.

Yun Zangfeng handed Yu Niang a look gratefully. Yu Niang pretended not to see it, but was just waiting beside Hu Li, waiting for the reply.

Hu Li said timidly: "I know, I have never been angry with the young master, but I feel wronged. At that time, I just felt that it was not wrong to stay in this inn with my sister in this life. I cried for a while and felt much better."

Yu Niang smiled and said, "It's good."

Seeing that the matter had a perfect ending, Yun Zangfeng asked hurriedly: "Then, what do you think about going on the road with us just now? Yu Niang?"
