The young man was afraid that his father would reprimand him again, so he stopped mentioning this matter and chatted with Xu Ziying about other things.In the evening, the carriage stopped in front of an inn, where the old couple planned to rest for the night.

The road was slippery in the snow and the cold wind howled at night, so the journey was delayed, but it was not far from Xuanle City, so we could arrive tomorrow anyway.

As soon as Xu Ziying heard that he wanted to stay in a hotel, he would definitely spend money. He simply suggested showing the carriages to old couples and young people, which saved money and made it easier for others.

The old couple originally disagreed when Xu Ziying, who looked like a flower, wanted to sleep in the carriage. They were not afraid that he would slip away at night, but they really cared about his comfort.

Xu Ziying understood the kindness of the old couple, and his heart warmed up. He had inquired about it in private, and said with a good face.

"Don't worry about me. I'll sleep here, so I don't need to spend money to let Xiaoer see it. I will repay you for taking me out of the city."

The old couple were relieved for a while, and they didn't force him anymore. After entering the inn, they asked Xiaoer to bring some food to Xu Ziying.

In the carriage, Xu Ziying looked at the two dishes of meat and vegetables in front of him by candlelight, and smiled silently.

A strange cold moon hung high in the night sky, with a few black clouds behind it, Xu Ziying thought to himself, leaving Bianmo City, this could be considered a good start.

It was cold at night, and it was impossible for the fire cage in the carriage to burn all night. Xu Ziying wrapped up the bedding and extinguished the candles, curled up on the small couch, put his hands together and breathed a few breaths of hot air.

Although the carriage could withstand the severe cold, it also froze Xu Ziying's nose, making him toss and turn so that he couldn't sleep.

He opened his eyes and thought puzzledly: Logically speaking, Bianmo City is much colder than here, so now it gets colder as we go to Xuanle City?

Subconsciously rubbing her hands twice, Xu Ziying actually missed the temperature of the hand warmer...

Then he paused, the only bit of drowsiness disappeared, and he suddenly realized that this was not a matter of where, it was indeed that Bianmo City was colder.

But in Bianmo City, Rong Feiyan would prepare a few hand warmers for him, and replace them immediately when they got cold.

When he is in the house, Rong Feiyan will also let his servants enjoy the stove, the charcoal fire is always burning; the quilt on his bed is the best silk and satin, and the clothes on his body and under his feet are also made of the warmest material .

After entering the winter in Bianmo City, he never suffered from the cold for a moment.

It was pitch black in the carriage. Although Xu Ziying opened his eyes, he couldn't see anything clearly, and felt inexplicably flustered.

After a while, in the silence, he slowly said: "Damn..."

Sitting on the small couch with her head in her arms, Xu Ziying scolded herself countless times in her heart, thinking how could she become hypocritical after a few days of good life?I am afraid of cold and hungry, I have never been like this in the past 20 years!

Then thinking of Rong Feiyan, Xu Ziying directly covered his head with the quilt and fell down, struggling again.

He hinted over and over again that Rong Feiyan was a liar, that he was dangerous and strange, and he never spoke the truth.

There was a lot of turmoil in his mind, he had to forget everything as soon as possible and start over, Xu Ziying thought so.

But the more he didn't want to think about it, the more he couldn't control it, tossing and tossing, the familiar headache hit him, and he couldn't sleep at all.

Xu Ziying got out of the quilt, smoothed her messy hair, put on a cloak, and planned to go out to calm down.

The door latch of the carriage was opened with a "snap", and the cool wind rushed in. Xu Ziying was caught off guard and shivered twice, got out of the carriage and hurriedly closed the door.

Xu Ziying didn't intend to go far, so he didn't take out the candlestick. The cold wind was biting in the middle of the night, and the moon that was originally hanging in the sky was also hidden by the dark clouds.

"It's so cold..."

He was so cold that he rubbed his arms with both hands, but he stood beside the carriage as if he was suffering from the cold, and after standing for a while to adapt, he suddenly heard something.

The voice flickered, seemed to be in front and behind.

The sound of heavy objects hitting the ground suddenly sounded, and Xu Ziying was finally sure that those sounds came from the inn.

The carriage was parked at the back of the inn, there were still some distance between several big trees, so Xu Ziying couldn't hear clearly just now.

He turned his head suddenly, unreasonably disturbed, and a chill rushed up his tailbone, making him shiver.

He took a sudden breath, ghostly flames swayed in his pupils, and a fire was burning in the inn, when a hard object was pressed against his waist.

"I didn't expect there was another one here." A male voice sounded behind him.

Xu Ziying didn't understand the situation for the time being, but he could feel a knife next to his waist, his hands clenched secretly, and he was forced to move forward by the people behind him.

When he arrived in front of the inn, Xu Ziying saw many residents being kicked out, and three or four masked men with long knives standing around, searching for their belongings one by one.

Xu Ziying was startled, thinking this is a robbery bandit, right?

"Brother, there are still several carriages behind, and I have caught one person here."

The masked man called Big Brother was the leader of the bandits. He heard the sound and looked over. He stared at Xu Ziying for a while, and his eyes lit up.

Xu Ziying hadn't reacted to the sudden disaster, and completely forgot that he still had this pretty face.

Until the bandit leader came over and pinched his chin, Xu Ziying frowned in pain, slapped his hand away and said, "What are you doing?!"

The fire in the inn was even brighter, reflecting Xu Ziying even more gorgeously. The bandit leader laughed loudly: "I have never seen such a beautiful man. I like his temperament."

"Oh, it's true, she's prettier than a woman."

The man who brought Xu Ziying over just now didn't see his appearance clearly, and he was also extremely amazing at the moment. Of course, this beauty of color belonged to his elder brother, and he regretted why he didn't take advantage of it just now.

If this man really did this, Xu Ziying would probably beat him up, and if he couldn't win, he would kill him.

Seeing him like this, the bandit leader was still unscrupulous, his eyes rolled around him several times, and he reached out to touch his cheek.

Xu Ziying was so disgusted that he raised his arm to greet him with a punch, but there was a big difference in his body after all. The bandit leader sideways dodged, and Xu Ziying's fist barely missed the edge.

Then he was restrained, his hands were pressed behind his back, the bandit leader touched the place where he was hit, and muttered: "The strength is really great..."

Then he grabbed his hair, forced Xu Ziying to raise his head, and said ruthlessly, "See if I take you for a while."

The scalp hurt like tearing, Xu Ziying stared at him and said, "Get your dirty hands away!"

"Young Master Xu—"

Xu Ziying heard the sound and looked, and saw that the young man and the old couple were held together by the bandits, their eyes were terrified, but seeing him being humiliated, they still yelled out worriedly.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, the flames shot into the sky, smoke billowed, and the sound of beams collapsing could be heard from time to time in the inn. Xu Ziying stood sideways on the spot, with half of his body hot and half of his body cold.

"What? Is it your friend?" The bandit leader sneered.

Before Xu Ziying could think about it, the bandit leader had someone drag the young man and the old couple out of the crowd, then stepped on the young man's back, touched the place where Xu Ziying hurt him, and said.

"Such a good-looking face, it's a pity to hit the monsters, but there is a saying called killing chickens to warn monkeys, no matter how dare you be dishonest, they will be the ones who are unlucky."

Xu Ziying opened his eyes wide, and slowly shifted his gaze to the face of the bandit leader, but his heart was calmer than ever before.

The bandit leader walked up to Xu Ziying, waved his hand, and someone pulled the young man into the burning inn.

"Son! Don't!"

"I beg you! Please, kill me and don't touch my son!"

The old couple knelt on the ground and kept begging, but a few feet still fell on them like raindrops, fragile and desperate.

Xu Ziying stared blankly at everything in front of him, and with a "buzz", dizziness rushed in his head, causing him to hang his head unconsciously.

The bandit leader thought he was afraid, so he laughed even more wildly, and directly stuffed the machete into Xu Ziying's left hand casually, saying cruelly.

"How about it? How about you kill me? Kill us? Otherwise, your friends will all die!"

There was devilish laughter all around.

"Hahahaha, are these two old guys your parents? Why are they motionless, dead?"

"Whether he is dead or not, none of them will survive!"
