System [I am in a horror dungeon]
Chapter 162: Arrogant Family, Hidden Suffering
They stayed in the town for a few more days and then left. When they left, almost everyone came to see them off.
Amid those people's happy smiles and sincere blessings, the figures of several people gradually faded away.
"Now we should find a place for Chu Lingxian to recover completely from his injuries."
"it is good."
Several people looked at the map and headed east. They would soon reach the Southeast Sea.
Lu Nanyin got excited just thinking about it. The sea! What would it be like?
Before dark, they found an inn called Haitian Yise.
They asked for two rooms, put their belongings in the rooms, and while sitting in the lobby to eat, they heard a lot of rumors.
For example, the unlucky Fourth Prince Qi Lingmo fell into the cave.
For example, the seventh princess in the palace started making trouble again. She chased after a minister and wanted him to be her husband.
For example, the ninth princess who was burned to death, how pitiful!
……
Lu Nanyin: ...How did it end up on me? Although she didn't admit the relationship, it still felt weird to be told like this.
Chu Lingxian gave her a piece of meat and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"Do you think what they said is true or false?"
Chu Lingxian glanced at those who were talking, "I don't know. These things were spread here from Qiandi City, and they have added some personal opinions to the matter. Just listen to it, it may not be true."
"Well, that makes sense, but the story about the Fourth Prince might be true."
They smiled in tacit understanding and continued eating.
Another group of people came, and the one at the head was a man dressed as a guard. He checked the inn and said to the people in the carriage outside the door: "Sir, we have checked everything, and there is no danger of any trap."
"Okay, let's go down."
Then, all the people in the hall were driven back to their rooms. There were people guarding the door and they were not allowed to come out until the young master entered the room.
Many people complained, "Who is this guy? So arrogant!"
"Yeah, who is it? So impressive."
"You don't let us see it. Maybe you are as ugly as a demon and you are afraid that we will have nightmares if we see you."
As soon as the man finished speaking, he was kicked out by a guard and hit the wall, leaving a mark. Everyone shut up.
Lu Nanyin was stunned when she saw the person flying from a distance. Fortunately, Chu Lingxian pulled her aside. Looking at the human-shaped mark on the wall, Lu Nanyin immediately closed her mouth when she was about to complain.
Sitting back at the table, Lu Nanyin was still looking at the room that had so many people in it, "Who is this?"
Chu Lingxian looked at the carriage outside the door that was being led to the backyard. There were two lanterns on the carriage with the word "Liu" written on them.
"It should be someone from the Liu family."
"The Liu family, the Liu family here, the Liu family that got rich by digging for pearls?"
Chu Lingxian nodded, his face looked very bad, and his hands were clenched tightly into fists under the table.
Lu Nanyin held her wrist and said, "Eat this, it can reduce internal heat." She pinched Chu Ling's wrist and motioned her to look up.
Chu Lingxian looked at the guards who were listening to everyone downstairs, and took a few deep breaths to restrain the leaking spiritual power.
Almost exposed.
Chu Lingxian looked at Lu Nanyin with gratitude, "Got it, you can eat it too, it's good for calming the nerves."
"it is good."
At night, lying in bed, Chu Lingxian couldn't fall asleep. He wanted to rush into that room countless times, raise his knife and kill him.
Lu Nanyin hugged her waist and said dazedly: "Sleep well, we still have to travel tomorrow, what do you want to do alone?"
"I can not sleep."
"I know, so do you need a tranquilizer?"
“Maybe you might need it now.”
Lu Nanyin handed her a stick of incense and said, "Light it up to calm your spirit."
Chu Lingxian inserted the incense, lit it, and fell asleep in a daze.
When they woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky, but their postures were now a little awkward.
Lu Nanyin had been awake for a while, but in order not to disturb her, she didn't move. Knowing that she was a little hungry, she stretched out her hands and reached over her.
Unexpectedly, Chu Lingxian woke up just halfway through. Lu Nanyin was startled by her sudden opening of her eyes. Her hands lost strength and she fell straight on her. Fortunately, her face was slightly turned to the side, otherwise they would have collided face to face.
"Lu Nanyin."
"I'm sorry, I saw you were still asleep. You went to bed late yesterday, so I wanted you to sleep a little longer."
"It's okay, get up first."
"it is good."
Lu Nanyin returned to her seat and looked at Chu Lingxian eagerly.
Chu Lingxian looked at her and didn't know what to say for a moment. She thought she would get off the bed, but she just got up from her and sat back on the bed.
Chu Lingxian stood up and rubbed his shoulders feeling a little sore.
Seeing this, Lu Nanyin hurriedly pressed her shoulders. After all, this was because she had been holding her in her arms while sleeping and had been pressing on her all night.
There was a commotion outside and the two thought something had happened again. When they wanted to go out to take a look, they heard the guards starting to chase people away again, so they sat back down.
A quarter of an hour later, the inn returned to calm, and then everyone started complaining. The boss didn't care. After all, he had seen it more than once or twice and he was numb to it.
The two of them got dressed and went downstairs. Su Liyue and Xia Xiaoxiao had already ordered breakfast, and they sat together, eating breakfast and listening to everyone around them discussing the person who had just happened and last night.
Chu Lingxian and Xia Xiaoxiao's faces were not very good, so the four of them left after eating without staying for too long.
Along the way, when they were resting in the teahouse, they could always hear some discussions about the mermaids, but none of them said anything positive. Many people said that they were about to be exterminated.
The few of them changed their route and ended up running into the Liu family again. They were sent back to their room again. In short, it seemed that not many things went well for them after leaving Changxi Mountain.
"Chu Lingxian, where are we going now? It feels like we have been walking forward aimlessly these past few days."
"Is there anywhere else you'd like to go?"
"I have no idea."
Suddenly, there was a commotion where several people were, and voices were heard outside, shouting something like "catch her" and "don't run".
A few people looked outside curiously and found that those people were chasing a woman. The woman panicked and hid in the inn where they were. Chu Lingxian pulled her into the house and set up an invisibility formation around her. When those people came to search, she said she hid somewhere else.
After those people walked away, the woman thanked them carefully.
Chu Lingxian and Xia Xiaoxiao also revealed their identities, they were both mermaids.
The woman looked at them with tears in her eyes and told them about the hardships she had experienced in those days.
Only then did Lu Nanyin understand why Chu Lingxian and the others were always hiding on the road. It turned out that not everyone regarded mermaids as an independent race.
