Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 162 I just can't stand it

After Lin Ji left Zhongfu, he went back to the inn directly.

Wu Nan was still waiting here obediently.

When Lin Ji walked into the inn, the little bald donkey was fighting with others in the lobby.

"Five chiefs. 666... ​​Benefactor Lin!"

"What kind of thing is Lin Benefactor?" The opponent was at a loss.

Wu Nan waved his hands impatiently and said, "No more playing, the people waiting for the little monk are here."

When Wu Nan came to Lin Ji, his eyes turned red and he pretended to cry.

"Stop acting in front of me." Lin Ji yawned and urged, "Pack up your things and set off."

"Okay." The grievance on Wu Nan's face disappeared all of a sudden, he trotted up the stairs, and then came downstairs with a small bag.

But just when Lin Ji was about to leave with Wu Nan, the shopkeeper quickly stopped them.

"Sir, you two haven't settled the bill yet."

Lin Ji slapped his forehead. When he was taken to Zhong's house earlier, he hadn't checked out of the inn yet.

It is estimated that Wu Nan is still in the inn, so the room has been kept until now.

Lin Ji took out some broken silver coins from his bosom, and looked at Wu Nan again.

"What are you doing in a daze, pay for it."

"Little... little monk is ashamed."

Lin Ji was surprised: "How did you come here these days when you have no money? Shopkeeper, what does this bald donkey eat these days?"

"Four meals a day, each meal has four dishes and one soup, with fish, meat and wine." The shopkeeper responded.

Wu Nan smiled awkwardly.

"Co-author, you were going to let me pay from the beginning, right?" Lin Ji gave Wu Nan an angry look, and finally took out a 100 tael bank note.

This inn is one of the best in Xiangcheng. It has been provided with food and lodging for more than half a month. Lin Ji estimates that it will cost nearly 100 taels.

"Is 100 taels enough?" Lin Ji handed over the bank note.

"Enough is enough, there are still ten taels left, thank you, guest officer." After the shopkeeper took the bank note, he was obviously relieved.

After paying the bill, Lin Ji took Wu Nan out of the city.

When you leave the city wall, you will find the residential area outside the city. Compared with the inside of the city, the outside of the city is a bit more lively and has a more urban atmosphere.

"Benefactor." Wu Nan hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ji was puzzled.

"Have you really become the son-in-law of the Zhong family? Will the little monk change his name to Zhong's benefactor in the future?"

"Fuck off." Lin Ji slapped him, "I'm just helping Zhong Xiaoyan out of kindness, just playing around. Anyway, I won't come to Xiangcheng in the future if I can."

He briefly told Wu Nan about the Zhong family's affairs casually.

After listening, Wu Nan suddenly realized.

"I just said that the benefactor can't be so shameless!"

Lin Ji glanced at the little bald donkey, and didn't bother to talk to him.

After walking forward for a while, Lin Ji suddenly stopped walking as he was about to leave the residential area outside the city.

On the road in front of the two, a young man with a fair face and exquisite facial features blocked their way.

"This person seems a bit like Miss Zhong, strange." Wu Nan scratched his head.

"It seems like she is." Lin Ji said angrily.

"Why does she wear men's clothes?"

Lin Ji was too lazy to talk nonsense with Wu Nan, so he walked two steps faster and came to Zhong Xiaoyan.

"How did you get out?"

"Didn't you say you were going to elope with me?" Zhong Xiaoyan puffed out her small chest without showing any timidity.

"What nonsense, when I left today, I checked your room. Aren't you retreating in your room?"

"That's Ling'er, haha." Zhong Xiaoyan smiled slyly.

Lin Ji suddenly remembered the maid who was by Zhong Xiaoyan's side, who was wronged all day long.

Zhong Xiaoyan proudly said: "Just after you met Geng Ran that day, I called Ling'er into the room and asked her to pretend to be me to practice in seclusion, and then I ran out by myself at night."

"You waited for me outside for three days?" Lin Ji was speechless.

"Then I'm a girl, so I can't go out alone, can I?" Zhong Xiaoyan said this very calmly, "You said you wanted to elope with me, but you can't go back on your word."

"Is this the same thing?"

"Who asked you to deliberately whet my appetite? I have inquired about the ruins clearly. Although many people died, it is not as exaggerated as you said." Zhong Xiaoyan said with her waist.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ji became a little weaker.

"Is that why you ran out?"

"Yeah, do you really think I'm here to elope with you?"

Lin Ji pondered for a while, and finally shook his head helplessly.

"I guess I'll let you go back, so you don't have to."

"Of course I won't do it, I finally ran out." Zhong Xiaoyan said as it should.

"Then follow along, but going out is not like being at home, you have to restrain your temper."

"I know, I don't necessarily have fewer places to run than you."

"Okay, you are an old Jianghu, I feel ashamed."

……

Taking Zhong Xiaoyan with them, the three of them walked out of the city along the official road in the south.

Between the stops and stops, the time has come to the evening.

Lin Ji held the map in his hand and looked at it for a while, then said, "This is strange. From Xiangcheng to the south, you have to go three hundred miles to the next county?"

At this time, the three of them were in a lush and dense forest, deviated from the main road of the official road, but it could save a lot of walking.

"It seems that we won't be able to reach the next county tonight, and there are still two hundred miles away. Find a place to rest for the night, and start tomorrow morning." Lin Ji put away the map.

Soon, the three found a clearing in the forest near a stream.

"I'm going to catch fish." Zhong Xiaoyan greeted and disappeared.

Wu Nan followed Lin Ji to gather firewood to build a fire, and then sat down by the fire to rest.

It was already the twelfth lunar month of winter. Although there was no snow in Xiangzhou, even in this dense forest, there was still a bit of cold wind at night.

It didn't take long for Zhong Xiaoyan to come back with three fat rabbits, two big ones, one small one, and two fishes.

"Why did you catch so many? You won't take the rabbit's nest in one pot, will you?"

"No, I kept two small ones." Zhong Xiaoyan handed the rabbit to Lin Ji, "Just roast it like I did in the cave in Liangzhou last time."

"You still remember." Lin Ji laughed dumbly, skillfully skinned and removed the internal organs of the rabbit.

"Of course I remember, you are the only one who will carry salt, cumin and chili noodles with you." Zhong Xiaoyan smiled and narrowed her eyes when she mentioned this.

Soon, Lin Ji skillfully roasted a rabbit, and Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan stretched out their hands at the same time.

"The rabbit is from Zhong Xiaoyan, give it to her first." Lin Ji handed the roasted rabbit to Zhong Xiaoyan.

"Little monk, you are a Buddhist disciple, do you still eat meat?" Zhong Xiaoyan took a bite of rabbit meat and said to Wu Nan.

"Amitabha, wine and meat have passed through the intestines, the Buddha sits in his heart, and when he is hungry, the little monk never quits." Wu Nan laughed.

"I just can't stand you wine and meat monks." Zhong Xiaoyan said with contempt.

"Mrs. Lin... Oh no, Miss Zhong, the little monk never offended you, did he?"

"I just can't stand it, hum!"

……

After eating game, it was already late.

The moonlight shines on the ground through the gaps in the leaves in the forest, mottled everywhere, and the breeze made the mottled even more messy.

Wu Nan generously took off the shabby monk robe on his body, and after unfolding it several times, it turned into a long cloth several meters wide.

"I said that your clothes are so sloppy that they are of no use." Lin Ji looked at them in amazement.

After simply making a tent with long cloth, Lin Ji stuffed Zhong Xiaoyan, who was full of reluctance, into it.

"I eloped with you, not for you to take care of me!"

"Go in, you, I wouldn't bother with you if it wasn't for the sake of being a woman." Lin Ji said angrily, "Also, we're not running away, don't talk nonsense."

After settling down Zhong Xiaoyan, Lin Ji found a big rock and sat down.

For no reason, a gust of cold wind passed by, making him shiver.

"How eerie."
