From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

Chapter 268 Wait until midnight, then sneak over under the cover of darkness.

"Finally, I can change out of this outfit."

In the town's inn, Yun'er took off the smelly outer garment that she had stripped from the bandits and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They traveled for two days and one night, dodging the assassins searching for them, before finally reaching a small town.

The town was small and didn't have the kind of clothing shops like those in Yongqiu City. Chen Shi bought three sets of clothes that ordinary people would wear at a pawnshop. Although the fabric was of poor quality and the workmanship was rough, at least they were starched and clean.

When he fled, he lost all his luggage and belongings. Fortunately, Chen Shi still had some silver with him. Although it wasn't enough for a life of luxury, it was enough for his journey to Wuxing City.

They didn't feel bitter, after all, they were now "wandering in the world".

"Get out of here, we need to take a bath."

The bathtub was already full of hot water. Yun'er urged Chen Shi to leave.

The master and servant hadn't showered for two or three days, and they couldn't take it anymore.

Chen Shi smiled and stood guard outside the door.

Nearly an hour passed before Yun'er finally opened the door.

Her hair was still wet, and she was carefully wiping it with a towel. She had changed into a newly bought cloth shirt and skirt. Although the clothes were made of coarse cloth, they gave Yun'er a delicate and refined look.

Chen Shi walked in and saw Xiao Fengxiao sitting on the edge of the bed, dressed in coarse cloth, but she looked different from Yun'er. She wore the clothes of an ordinary person and looked radiant.

Looking at the two people who were completely different from usual, Chen Shi was momentarily stunned.

"So this is what you like."

Seeing that Chen Shi's eyes were wide open, Xiao Fengxiao gave a soft snort.

"It's not that I like it this way, it's that I like it when you're wearing it."

Chen Shi snapped out of his daze, smiled, and said something.

Looking at the bathtub still sitting there, I couldn't help but scratch myself.

"Perfect timing, while the water's still on, I'll take a shower too."

"No!"

Yun'er was startled and hurriedly stood in front of the bathtub.

"You can't use this water! Not only can you not use it, you're not allowed to look at it either!"

"It's just a bucket of water, why are you so nervous?"

Chen Shi frowned, but instead of being curious, he leaned over to take a look.

"No looking means no looking!"

Yun'er blushed deeply, and seeing that she couldn't hide it any longer, she simply pushed Chen Shi away.

"Go back to your room."

"What's wrong?"

Chen Shi scratched his head and looked at Xiao Fengxiao.

Xiao Fengxiao sat there covering her mouth and chuckling, but there was also a hint of embarrassment on her face.

"What's going on?"

Even after being pushed out the door, Chen Shi was still completely bewildered.

It was just a bucket of water, and I didn't bother to think about it too much. I then went back to my room next door.

The town is small, with only one inn. Because few outsiders come, there are not many guests, and the few rooms are usually empty.

Chen Shi asked the waiter to fetch water, took a bath, and then changed his clothes.

"I don't know which corpse it was taken from."

The shirt was an ordinary short-sleeved shirt and trousers. There was a hole in the back of the shirt. Although it had been mended, it was still clear that it had been pierced by a sharp weapon such as a knife or sword.

At this location, the heart would probably be pierced.

It seems these clothes were taken from a corpse and then pawned.

Chen Shi didn't seem to care about this.

After changing his clothes, he went to the street to buy some food and delivered it to Xiao Fengxiao and Yun'er's room.

The inn also serves meals, but they are all simple and plain.

These past two days, we've been traveling in the middle of nowhere, with no villages or shops in sight, and the three of us have no dry food, so we can only hunt some wild game to fill our stomachs.

The three of them sat together and had a proper meal.

"Yun'er, go and brew a pot of tea."

After finishing eating, Xiao Fengxiao gently wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and gave an instruction.

Yun'er responded and got up to leave.

Why did you send her out?

Chen Shi looked at Xiao Fengxiao, smiled, and asked a question.

Just now, as he was about to get up to make tea, Xiao Fengxiao immediately gave him a look.

What do you think?

Xiao Fengxiao stared intently at Chen Shi.

They looked like they were about to devour Chen Shi.

"Yun'er will be back soon."

Chen Shi said something and helplessly shrugged.

"That little brat, sometimes she really makes you want to grind your teeth in anger."

Xiao Fengxiao gritted her teeth, then suddenly smiled.

"Come quietly at midnight."

"But what about Yun'er?"

"Don't worry, I have a way."

Xiao Fengxiao appeared to have her own ideas, but offered no explanation.

"That's good."

Chen Shi nodded. "Since that's the case, then there's nothing more to say."

As they were talking, Yun'er pushed the door open and came in.

"There's nothing good in the tea, just have some plain water."

As he spoke, he poured three glasses of water.

After drinking some water and chatting with the two women for a while, Xiao Fengxiao gave Chen Shi a wink.

"It's so late without me realizing it, time to sleep."

Chen Shi yawned and got up while talking.

"Go to sleep."

Chen Shi had been keeping watch for the past two nights, and Yun'er felt sorry for him, so she saw him to the door.

After Chen Shi left, the master and servant tidied up and went to bed.

Chen Shi stood outside the door, saw that the lights in the two rooms were off, smiled, and then went back to his own room.

Sit cross-legged and cultivate until midnight, then open your eyes.

When I got up and went outside, the lights in the inn were already off, and it was pitch black everywhere.

Chen Shi found his way to Xiao Fengxiao's room, gently pushed the door open, but it wasn't locked.

He slipped inside and closed the door again.

The room wasn't large; you could see everything at a glance. The two women were lying side by side on the bed, with Yun'er on the inside and Xiao Fengxiao on the outside.

Chen Shi frowned slightly, wondering what he was being asked to do.

She tiptoed to the bedside, looked at the two sleeping faces, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. She reached out and gently stroked Xiao Fengxiao's cheek.

The next moment, Xiao Fengxiao suddenly grabbed Chen Shi's hand and opened her eyes.

"You weren't asleep after all."

"I'm waiting for you."

Xiao Fengxiao smiled, pressed Chen Shi's hand against her face, and said coquettishly in the hazy moonlight.

"enemy."

"Enemies are destined to meet."

"Pah, who wants to meet up with you?"

"A convergence is also acceptable."

Chen Shi made up a story on the spot, and looking at Xiao Fengxiao lying there, looking like she was ready to be taken, he felt a surge of unbearable urges.

But looking at Yun'er lying next to him, he frowned again.

Is this little girl still awake?

"Don't worry, she won't wake up anytime soon."

"Um?"

Upon hearing Xiao Fengxiao's words, Chen Shi was taken aback and looked surprised.

What did you do to her?

"Look how anxious you are!"

Xiao Fengxiao gave a jealous snort and then continued.

"Don't worry, I just sealed a few points of her blood and qi, making her faint for a while."

"You have this kind of trick up your sleeve."

"I have many tricks up my sleeve."

Xiao Fengxiao suddenly smiled and looked at Chen Shi with seductive eyes.
