C157 (1/2)
Upstairs, it was relatively quiet. There was a small cubicle next to the window. Behind them was a screen depicted with Chinese wind. On it were pictures of the scenery and people; it was extremely elegant and lifelike. Jun Lin Yue looked out of the window. The streets were bustling with activity. Even though it was noisy here, it was clearly much quieter here.
(Happy Valentine's Day.) It is now just after midnight on the morning of February 14, 2016.)
Yun Dai Er drank a pot of tea and asked, ”Hey, you got here really slowly. I saw you from afar and didn't dare to call out to you.” What did you do on the way? That logic shouldn't be so slow, right? ”
Jun Linyue acted as if he didn't hear him, as he looked out the window and sighed, ”Wow, there's so many people here. It's even comparable to our Martial Competition! No, no, there were even more people than at the Martial Competition. This place is really awesome! ”
Yun De'er looked at him speechlessly and said, ”Look at your useless appearance.” This place is not as lively as a street city in the Great Yang Imperial City. ”
Jun Lanyue turned his head, pretending to be serious as he replied with surprise, ”That's even more amazing!”
Yun Dai Er chuckled. ”You really don't have any proper attitude. Of course it's lively over there. After all, this is the capital.” ”But I don't know what you came to Zhuzhou for. Is there anything I can help you with?”
Only then did Jun Lin Yue return to the main topic at hand. He took a sip of water, put his bag aside, and asked seriously, ”Do you know where the Great Left City of Zhuzhou is?”
After thinking for a moment, Yun Dai Er replied, ”I've checked in advance. There are fourteen cities in Zhuzhou and a deep mountain in the southwest. Your name is Desolate Land, so the Great Left City should be heading west. This is the border city of Zhuzhou... ”Uh, let me think for a moment …”
Yun Dai Er frowned and thought deeply, her willow leaf-like eyebrows slanted and combed to the corner of her eyes. At this moment, she looked exceptionally enchanting, her happy face also appearing moving and cute.
”That should be the case. There's a written impression of Great Left City. It seems like there's no water route there, so we can only take the land route.” Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Jun Lanyue staring at her. Yun Dai Er's face immediately flushed pink, but she still said, ”Hey, what are you looking at!?” Did you hear that! ”
”Ah, I heard it. Take the water path, take the water path, I'll listen to you! ”Let's go faster this way!” For a moment, Jun Lanyue was at a loss for words. He felt awkward himself as well, and so he hastily dealt with the situation.
Not long after, the dishes in their restaurant were served. After a simple meal, the two of them left the noodle restaurant and headed towards the west.
It was late in the evening, and the temperature here wasn't too low. Jun Lin Yue and Yun Di'er were walking towards the west. Although the two of them stood side by side, they were not near each other. For some reason, Jun Linyue was still a bit wary of Yun Dai'er. In her heart, Yun Dai'er had already decided to leave the village.
Knowing that he was going to Zhuzhou, Yun Dai Er took the time to ask the local people for their names, locations, and rough itineraries and memorized them. In addition, since she had spent more than half a day with him, she had already familiarized herself with the surroundings. Although he had never been there, he was still like a local man half a day later, running around with Jun Lin Yue in tow.
The bank in Zhuzhou's Fringe City was not big, but it had a lot of power. People here like to do business, so there are a lot of little things that are both delicate and practical.
In one breath, Yun Dai'er had exchanged all the crushed silver in Jun Lanyue's hand for a copper coin, which was an entire package. However, since the two of them could not move, they exchanged two-thirds of the copper coins for silver notes to use when necessary.
