Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

After Jiang Xinxin returned to the room, Xiao Se leaned against the window and sulked.

Xiao Se claimed that he was not a stupid person and was even somewhat smart. His status and the convenience of his master allowed him to claim that there was little in the world that he didn't know.

But I didn't expect that I would suffer a great loss at the hands of a little girl today. Not only did I fail to get the other person's background out, but I let the little girl guess a lot of my secrets!

"What kind of family is this? So many storybooks!"

So when Jiang Xinxin came to check out, Xiao Se specifically asked, "Miss, you said you came out to gain experience, but have you decided where to go?"

Jiang Xinxin answered casually, "I heard a lot from Boss Xiao yesterday. Naturally, I have to go to the nearest Wushuang City first, then go north to Tianqi City to gain some experience, and then go southwest to Xueyue City. If Xueyue City is really like spring all year round, I'm afraid I will have to live in Xueyue City for a while."

Of course Xiao Se didn't believe this, but seeing that Jiang Xinxin seemed to be really interested in Xueyue City, he couldn't help but think that maybe they could meet again in Xueyue City.

Jiang Xinxin put away the five taels of silver she had found, looked at Xiao Se's pale face, and couldn't help but say something more: "According to me, Boss Xiao, you must have good luck, and you will definitely be able to recover from your serious illness in the future. If you are depressed, I'm afraid it will aggravate your physical discomfort."

Faced with such straightforward and selfless concern, Xiao Se was a little uncomfortable for a moment, but after all, he was a man who had experienced many ups and downs, so he still looked cynical and said casually: "Okay, Miss Jiang, I appreciate your kindness. But Miss Jiang, you have to be more careful when traveling alone. Although the world is not bad, not everyone has a good heart."

Jiang Xinxin lowered her head to express her gratitude, then went straight out the door and headed down the mountain. Xiao Se didn't know what to feel when he saw this, but he did have plans to take action and was just waiting for the right opportunity.

Jiang Xinxin didn't feel much tired, so she kept talking to Changsheng to entertain herself along the way.

Jiang Xinxin sighed: "This Jianghu is a huge force, but it is not without any benefits. At least when entering and leaving the city gate, you don't need a pass or something like that."

Changsheng noticed something else: "Host, do you want a guide? Changsheng can make one for you, a real one."

Jiang Xinxin declined the offer, but when she saw a few tea stalls ahead, she couldn't help but smile: "Changsheng, if we go there to drink tea later, will we run into someone and get into a fight if we don't agree with them?"

Changsheng asked back: "Then host, do you want to see it?"

Jiang Xinxin just said that. Besides, the tea stall at the outermost corner was run by an elderly man with a half-grown child. How could she be so cruel as to ruin someone's livelihood, or even life, just because of her curiosity?

"Forget it, it's not easy for ordinary people like me. I'm not that kind of person who would rather eat meat than be fed up with meat."

The tea in the old man's teahouse was quite interesting. In addition to plain water and wild mountain tea, there were also mint, patchouli and other teas. Jiang Xinxin directly asked for a pot of mint water. Although it was still steaming when poured out, it quenched her thirst.

The old man only sold tea, but the stall next door also sold noodles, buns, and so on. Jiang Xinxin had some questions in her mind, but she didn't have to figure out everything. Instead, when she took out the copper coins and asked the child to help buy two buns, the child came over and took the initiative to explain: "There are only me and grandpa in my family. My health is not good and I can't work on the land. Grandpa thinks that even if we rent out the land, it will only be enough to make a living. It's the big brother next door who is kind enough to bring me and grandpa here to sell tea."

The elder brother next door did not show the shrewdness and kindness he showed when greeting the guests. His face almost turned red and he began to stutter: "It was just a piece of cake for me... We are all fellow villagers..."

Jiang Xinxin broke open the bun and saw that the skin was thin and the filling was large, without any compromise. She took out a handful of copper coins and asked the big brother to make a few buns for her to eat on the way.

Seeing that Jiang Xinxin was good-looking and kind, the elder brother couldn't help but ask a few more questions: "Young lady, you are traveling alone, so you must have some skills. But where are you going? We are not far from Hanshui Temple, and there are many people going to Hanshui Temple."

Jiang Xinxin had heard Xiao Se talk about Hanshui Temple, but she didn't ask much at the time. This ancient temple is different from modern temples. It does not receive pilgrims every day, and there are many taboos.

"I want to go to Wushuang City, but I don't want to go to Hanshui Temple. But my eldest brother just mentioned that there must be something eye-catching in Hanshui Temple, so it wouldn't hurt for me to go and take a look."

The eldest brother was even happier, and said with a smile: "The most famous person in Hanshui Temple is Master Wangyou's interpretation of divination. I heard that he has a pair of wise eyes, and can see through people's thoughts and enlighten believers. Especially when it comes to helping people see through their inner demons, he has never failed!"

Jiang Xinxin was really interested now, and hurriedly asked, "Brother, how do we get to Hanshui Temple?"
