"Aren't you stupid? I thought you were useless except martial arts. It seems that you are quite smart!" Zhen Ping'er interrupted him and told him not to continue.

"How many?" Changfeng looked right.

"How many do you have?" Zhen Ping'er asked back.

Changfeng took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhen Ping'er. Zhen Ping'er dragged her tired legs and walked towards the two soldiers who were closing the city gate.

"If you are the two soldiers, can we make peace with our father and daughter? We do have urgent matters to enter the city. At this time, we have a little intention of giving the two soldiers a tea. We also ask them to accept it and let our father and daughter go to the city to visit our relatives." Zhen Ping'er handed the silver to one of the soldiers and pretended to be pitiful.

"The law is nothing more than human favors. Okay, you can't make any mistakes in the city. Then no one will help you." The two soldiers guarding the city gate were jealous of money and hid the silver in their arms. There was no reason not to open the city gate. They opened a large gap for them to enter.

Changfeng and Zhen Ping'er entered Hailing City like thieves through the crack of the door, and hurriedly left the city gate, fearing that the two soldiers guarding the city gate would catch up. This time, Zhen Ping'er pulled Changfeng forward, because Zhen Ping'er knew that they didn't have more money to give, and they wouldn't be able to live on the other side.

"Okay, don't go so fast. We have been away from the city gate for a long time. Don't be afraid that they will catch up?" Changfeng stopped Zhen Ping'er in front and said.

"It's so dark, don't walk faster. The inn is about to close. If you want to sleep on the street, I won't accompany you!" Zhen Ping'er walked forward without looking back, and Changfeng had to follow behind.

After entering the city, I turned left and walked westward for about half an hour. Finally, I saw an inn's lantern with the words "not full" written on it. The rest were already full.

Changfeng went up to knock on the door, and soon he heard the shouting inside, "Here, come." Someone came to open the door.

The guy who opened the door put on a sheepskin coat and said, "Are you two guests staying in a hotel?"

Changfeng said: "Yes."

"Come in and talk, master, miss, it's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold!" Zhen Ping'er was pulled by the wind all the way, and her hair had already spread out, and she could understand at a glance.

"Can you care about the guests' meals?" Changfeng sat down and asked.

"Stay, keep in mind, you two want to eat something. We open a restaurant here during the day, and there are all kinds of dishes from all over the world. You two want to eat something, and ask the little one to buy it for you?" The guy praised Changfeng and said.

"Then come..." Changfeng didn't want to eat any delicacies, he just wanted to fill his stomach. He was about to order a few light side dishes and two bowls of rice, but was interrupted by Zhen Ping'er again.

"There are lotus elbows, steamed turtles, fried duck tongues, etc. for us!" Zhen Ping'er took Changfeng's words and said.

Changfeng was shocked when he heard this. He didn't have so much money to eat these dishes. He hurriedly stopped and said, "We don't want these, why don't you go down quickly!"

The guy said, "Who should I listen to?"

"Listen to me!" Changfeng and Zhen Ping'er said in unison.

"No big or small!" Changfeng scolded.

Zhen Ping'er had to shut up.

After seeing this, the guy knew that the old man was the one who decided to do so, so he agreed to prepare their meals.

Seeing that the guy went down, Zhen Ping'er continued to talk back: "Why don't you let me say it?"

"I asked you to tell me that I'd let you eat up all my belongings?" Chang Feng said.

"You didn't say that, I thought you were very rich?" Zhen Ping'er said with a lip.

"I'm just a pauper, and I almost bought medicine for you to heal and use it." Changfeng said to the tone of Zhen Ping'er speaking to him.

"Then you are at the city gate, and you can get ten taels of silver at one move. Just one guarding the city gate will give you three or five taels of silver. How could you spend money like this?" Zhen Ping'er asked angrily.

"Didn't you ask me to take the money? You didn't say much. I'm afraid that if there is less, people won't let us enter the city?" Changfeng said unjustly.

The guy brought a few side dishes according to Changfeng's wishes. Changfeng and Zhen Ping'er ate them, and each ordered a room. After sleeping, they didn't talk any longer.

Soon one night passed, and the next morning, Changfeng did not have the habit of sleeping, so he got up early to breathe fresh air.

Changfeng came down from the inn and happened to meet the young man from the inn. He told the man to wait for his book boy to wake up, and said he would go out for a walk and come back before noon. If he was hungry, he would ask her to order some food by herself. After that, he threw down a few taels of silver and asked the route in Mingcheng to go out alone.

Changfeng went out for a walk, and the purpose was to find a place to settle down in Hailing City so as to raise silver to go north to search for his mysterious life experience.

Hailing City is worthy of being the largest city in Jiangnan. The streets were already very prosperous early in the morning. They came here in the evening and were all very tired. They did not carefully observe the jade buildings in the first city in Jiangnan. It was indeed tall buildings and magnificent. The pedestrians on the street were also very different from those of the mountain villagers. They were performing arts along the way, doing business was very lively and the people were buzzing. The shouts were undulating. This was a scene that Changfeng had never seen in eight years. It has been eight years, and the changes were really big.

What Changfeng is going to is the Chenghuang Temple in the west of the city. It used to be a big street market. As long as there is something in the world, you can see it there, including finding something to do. Changfeng wants to find something to do, of course he has to go there!

The weather is quite clear, with only a few light white clouds floating by in the blue sky, and there has not been a trace of wind blowing by. It is so pleasant. The long wind has gone all the way without feeling that time has passed.

The wind was watching the street view along the way while paying attention to any announcements.

"Come and come and see, the Lin family invites Mr. Xixi!" A man ran forward from behind Changfeng and shouted.

"What, I asked again, it's amazing!" Many people on the roadside shook their heads and sighed.

"Yes, this is the eighth one who has been quit."

Changfeng was curious, who has such great ability? Changfeng pulled a man on the street and asked, "Brother, who is the Lin family?"

"I think the sir is not a local, and I don't know the local situation. The Lin family is one of the four major families in the world." The man replied.

"Is it the richest Lin family in Jiangnan?" When Changfeng heard his master talk about some of the things about the Lin family when he was a child, he guessed it casually.

"It's good that you know, don't let me explain to you again. There is a lady in the Lin family. She is the jewel in the hands of the head of the Lin family. She is very smart and has changed one teacher a year since she learned to read. In the past four years, she has changed eight great scholars in the world. On average, each one is less than half a year. She is really the most amazing woman in Jiangnan!" After saying that, the man still gave a thumbs up in front of Changfeng to praise him.

"So powerful, then isn't she a similar figure to a god?" Changfeng asked.

"Yes, she is still the biggest beauty in our Hailing City!" The man said with foam.

"So brother, have you ever seen this Miss Lin?" Changfeng took over the conversation and asked.

"Sir, I haven't seen this, it's just a legend!" The man said to Changfeng with a little regret, and walked away.

"Go and see what conditions have been launched this time!" A group of people rushed forward from behind. Changfeng also walked forward with the crowd.

Changfeng and others came to the notice board, and saw that there were crowds of people in front of the notice board, and everyone was scrambling to squeeze in and see. Changfeng finally squeezed to the notice board with his superb martial arts. After looking closely, he saw that the Lin family's notice accounted for half of the notice board, which read:

Now the Lin Mansion wants to hire a chief prefect. Anyone who knows that he is talented and knowledgeable is rich in five chariots can register for the job at the Lin Mansion. If he is not dismissed by the government within half a year after employment, his salary will be 10,000 taels, and the dismissed can also receive 100 taels of comfort.

Hailing Forest Mansion is coming today

Changfeng knew that he was not a talented person and a knowledgeable person. He just had a little knowledge. He stopped reading the notice and directly asked other notices such as hiring accountants in addition to the notice, and wrote down many addresses.

Seeing that Changfeng had no information he needed after watching, he tried hard to squeeze out the crowd. It took a lot of time to come. Changfeng felt that he should go back to the inn, so he would go around the City God Temple again and wait until he went back to have lunch before going to those recruiting addresses.

Changfeng followed the crowd on the street and entered the lively temple fair ongoing. The small market at Mianyueji was simply a witch. The various products made Changfeng dazzled.

Changfeng was happily walking around, and the young man's nature was just playful and curious. He looked all the way and almost forgot the time. He looked at this and that, and his straight line was put on his shoulder with one hand.

Changfeng looked back and saw that it was a Taoist priest-like man who held him.

"Sir, do you want to tell fortunes?" the Taoist priest asked.

"The Taoist priest is holding the lower house, just to tell fortunes?" Changfeng asked back.

"Yes, I saw that the teacher's back was full of nobleness, so I felt itchy." The Taoist said seriously, as if Changfeng would definitely let him tell fortunes.

Changfeng saw that the Taoist priest had a fairy-like and did not look like a traitor, so he followed the Taoist priest to sit down next to the fortune-telling stall and said, "Please don't waste too much time, I still have important things to do."

"It must be, it must be, I will not waste too much time on Mr. Husband, it will be fine in a while." The Taoist priest agreed to Changfengdao.

The Taoist priest sat down in front of him and said, "Sir, can you extend your left hand to me and take a look?"

When Changfeng heard this, he stretched out his left hand and said, "Yes, Taoist priest, please see."

The Taoist priest held Changfeng's left hand and looked carefully many times, turned the palm over and looked carefully, and smiled and said, "Strange, strange."

"Why is there any strange thing? Is there anything wrong with my fate?" Changfeng said to himself when he saw him.

"Oh, it's not that there is anything wrong with Mr.'s fate, but does Mr. want me to see the disguised fate outside or the real fate inside?" The Taoist continued to smile at Changfeng.

Changfeng was shocked. This Taoist priest was truly an unfathomable strange man. The master said that his disguise was not able to be seen through. He had just entered the world and saw through it. One was an experienced warrior. That was because of his negligence and forgot to disguise his hands. The person in front of him could see his disguise at a glance. There were many strange people in the world. The master taught him a lesson. In this blink of an eye, Changfeng had countless thoughts in his mind, forcing himself to calm down and not let the other party see his panic and said: "The Taoist priest is joking. In the next scholar, where is the disguise?"

"Is it because the old Taoist misunderstood?" The Taoist priest stroked the beards on his jaw and said suspiciously.

Changfeng was afraid that he would look carefully and reveal his disguise, so he would be unable to argue. He pulled back the left hand in the Taoist hand and said, "Since the Taoist priest can't see it, I will not disturb you anymore and I will leave."

How could the Taoist priest not knowing that this was the other party’s excuse. Forcibly exposing other people’s privacy is a taboo in their career, so he replied: “I am incompetent. I have been tired of waiting for a long time and have delayed my teacher’s time. I will not accept this hexagram.”

Changfeng stood up and fisted and said, "Thank you!" He left the fortune telling stall.

Just as Changfeng left, the fortune-telling Taoist priest also packed up his stall and left, gradually disappearing into the crowd like Changfeng.

Changfeng walked along the way, secretly remembering the paths coming and going, for fear that he would get lost again, so he returned to the inn.

As soon as Changfeng entered the door, he saw the shopkeeper settle the score. He stepped forward and asked, "Shopkeeper, is my little book boy here?"

"Yes, as you told me, I have already delivered breakfast to her. He has never left the door. I guess he is resting in the room?" The shopkeeper lowered his head and said, "Who said that staying in the hotel is their food and clothing parents!"

"It's my fault for the shopkeeper." Changfeng thanked the shopkeeper and went straight upstairs to find Zhen Ping'er.

Changfeng came to Zhen Ping'er's door and knocked on the door, "Ping'er, sir is back, you open the door, sir has something to discuss with you." Changfeng knocked for a long time but still no one inside agreed or came to open the door. Could it be that she had left? Changfeng thought to himself, it's not a thing to follow me, or leave. The door was locked inside, which was her own room. She was inconvenient to break into the door and went in to see it. She had to go downstairs to ask for a pot of tea and drink it alone.

In fact, Zhen Ping'er already knew that he had come back, because she knew everything about Changfeng's move. She heard what he said when he left. When Changfeng left, she woke up and asked the boss to send breakfast into the room. After eating, she put the bowls and chopsticks at the door, locked the door, and secretly followed Changfeng to the City God Temple through the window. Changfeng had almost no experience in the martial arts world, and Zhen Ping'er learned the technique of tracking. How could she know that she was following him? In fact, she had come back a long time ago, just wanted to try Changfeng and see if her departure would be anxious. However, Changfeng did nothing, and was drinking tea alone, feeling very happy.

Zhen Ping'er finally couldn't help it. She could see clearly through the crack in the door, opened the inner lock, walked out of the room, went downstairs to sit down at Changfeng's table.]

"Are you willing to give up?" Changfeng took a sip of the tea ceremony.

"You knew I was in the house," Zhen Ping'er asked angrily.

Changfeng smiled slightly and turned the teacup in his hand and said, "I don't know."

"Why?" Zhen Ping'er also reached out to take a teacup and reached a teacup.

"Shadow!" Changfeng took a sip of the tea ceremony.

"Whose shadow?" Zhen Ping'er continued to ask.

"I don't know, can you ask yourself?" Changfeng just didn't tell this unruly girl who made her suffer from it repeatedly.
