Tongtian River is different from Loulan. It is still early spring here, and the spring breeze by the river is a bit chilly.

In this way, the smell of blood in the wind would not be particularly overwhelming. After being comforted by Erwa, Cuihua finally regained some of her energy after vomiting.

He raised his head and looked at Monk Buli and Li Xiuyuan in front of him. He sighed and said, "Monk, it seems that today is really not a good time to do business! I will go home with Erwa after you cross the river."

"Okay, you can come back when the smell of blood here dissipates." The monk drank the last bit of porridge and replied.

"Monk, you are a disaster star!"

Erwa thought for a while and said: "There has been no murder at this ferry for many years. Once you come here, you won't be able to stop."

Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly, thinking that the monk could not be blamed for this. Grudges were everywhere, and who knew whether they would fall on him next moment?

After all, those people in Loulan City would not let him go.

He reached out and lit the stove on the table. As soon as the ship left, he could quietly brew a pot of spiritual tea.

Ever since he started walking around the world, assassinations and ambushes have always been a common occurrence for him. It was the first time for him to watch with such cold eyes like yesterday and today.

It's really scary to think about it now. If I had been careless back then, or if I wasn't strong enough to compete with those killers, I'm afraid I would be like Chen Xuanfeng today.

Fortunately, this didn't happen.

Monk Buli's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "The disaster star will leave when the ship comes. Don't miss me in the future."

Cuihua glared at Erwa and said, "Monk, don't pay attention to him. You are Cuihua's lucky star... This is Bai Huahua's spiritual stone. He knows nothing."

Erwa blinked her eyes faster than the monk, and said with a smile: "When did the monk become so rich?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at the three people talking and laughing. Monk Xindao did not look like a wealthy person, but the monk at the moment was no different from the monks who traveled around the world.

As for Jianghu, either you die or I die.

How can those who live on the edge of a knife lack spiritual stones?

Monk Buli smiled and said: "Don't think too much, we are all ordinary people, we only earn a little money when someone comes to our door crying and shouting!"

Li Xiuyuan looked at the couple and said with a smile: "Business is coming, hurry up..."

Cuihua turned her head and saw a group of people leading horses walking towards the shed.

"Excuse me, is there anything to eat here?... Ouch, why are you waiting for me here, little guy?"

A sound like a silver bell sounded, and a fragrant wind blew into the shed. A girl in a black skirt sat in front of Li Xiuyuan, and then smiled and said: "Why is there still a monk?"

The visitor was Murong Zhilan from Wuji Holy Land, and behind him were naturally six senior sisters and brothers.

Seeing that it was Li Xiuyuan's acquaintance again, Cuihua's eyes lit up with laughter, and she quickly greeted the guests to come in and sit down, while Erwa brought tea and water.

The couple just want to finish this life and go home.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "I said I don't know this guy, do you believe it or not?"

Seeing Murong Zhilan's suspicious eyes, the monk quickly said: "I don't know this guy very well, we are just sitting here together waiting for the boat to cross the river..."

Baili Yunyan and Fengyun came over to say hello to Li Xiuyuan, then turned around to say hello to the woman in a white skirt who had always been unfriendly to Li Xiuyuan.

Amidst the whining sound, the water in front of Li Xiuyuan was just about to boil. Li Xiuyuan, who was pouring tea into the pot and washing the cups, said with a smile: "The boat has just left, I guess we have to wait for more than an hour."

Murong Zhilan nodded and said with a smile: "That's just right. When we are full, we can cross the river... Let us know what delicious food is here."

Monk Buli laughed dryly, pointed at Erwa and said, "You can have a big pot of spiced mutton. It is said that after selling out your group of customers, the landlady will return to her hometown."

When Murong Zhilan heard this, she couldn't help but said: "Monk, do you also eat meat?"

Monk Buli nodded: "Monk can also drink." After saying this, he couldn't help coughing twice, holding his chest and sighing.

"Then let's have two pots of mutton and a jug of wine." Baili Yunyan, who was sitting nearby, spoke, looking at Erwa who looked a little nervous and said, "Hurry up."

"Come on, it'll be quick!" Erwa went to cut the meat and cook it.

"We only have soju made from sorghum here..." Cuihua poured two bottles of wine and put them on the table. She said with a smile, "Drinking wine and eating meat in this weather will keep the cold away."

"I didn't expect it to be so cold by the Tongtian River. The climate is completely different from that of Baixue City!"

Fengyun looked at the woman in the white dress and asked, "Senior sister, is the spring here much later than in Loulan City?"

...

"Little Shura, how long have you been here? Where are you going after crossing the river? Do you want to come with us?"

Murong Zhilan ignored her senior sister and her group at all, and shouted to Erwa: "Give me a pound of mutton, and this guy will pay for it for me."

Monk Buli was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "Oh, that's good. You can meet acquaintances again and again by the Tongtian River."

Looking at the turbulent river water, Li Xiuyuan said faintly: "According to your wishes, should I wait for another two days?"

"I won't go with you."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said quietly: "I am just a casual cultivator in Loulan City. How can I dare to disturb the genius of your Holy Land?"

After saying that, he quietly poured the spiritual tea for the two of them. He picked up a cup and blew gently and said, "It's already mid-spring in Loulan. I guess after crossing the Tongtian River, the flowers in the Snowy Mountains have just begun to bloom."

Monk Buli smiled and said, "It's not unusual for spring to be late in the Snowy Mountains!"

Murong Zhilan glanced at the two of them and chuckled: "If you don't want to come with us, is it possible that you need a monk to protect you?"

Going to the Snowy Mountains, no one wants to take the risk alone. It is estimated that everyone wants to find a trustworthy partner, and the same is true for Li Xiuyuan in Murong Zhilan's eyes.

Murong Zhilan could tell from the tone of his conversation with the monk.

"I'm afraid of death. I have to find someone to go with me!"

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "Just before you guys came, an earth-shattering fight just happened here. It's a pity that you came a little late."

Monk Buli interrupted and said: "Yes, those dead guys were thrown into the river to feed the fish."

"It's too scary." Murong Zhilan was startled and said, "I'm also timid, so don't scare me."

Just then, Cuihua came over with the cooked mutton. She looked at her and said with a wry smile: "I'm not lying to you. I was so scared that I vomited. Oh, I won't say it anymore, lest you can't eat it..."

Murong Zhilan sighed and said: "It seems that this time...have you eaten? Do you want to eat some more?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head: "I just ate porridge, you can eat it yourself, it tastes good."

"Yes, I told Cuihua to cook the remaining mutton together." Monk Buli said, "Pack it for us and take it with us to eat on the road, so that you don't have to go home again."

"Don't worry, I won't make you hungry." Erwa, who was adding firewood to the stove, replied.

Murong Zhilan thought of something and chuckled: "I will follow you all the way..."

When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "What if we go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain on a different route than you?"

Having just learned from the monk that there was a Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but start learning and selling it to scare people.

"Then I'll go to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain with you!" With an attitude of being sure that Li Xiuyuan would eat, Murong Zhilan picked up a piece of spiced mutton with her chopsticks.

When Baili Yunyan saw her junior sister running to sit in front of Li Xiuyuan, she didn't bother to pay attention, thinking that she could wait to cross the river after eating.

The other four men didn't say anything when they saw the woman in the white dress. They immediately looked at their stomachs and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the meat.

Li Xiuyuan withdrew his gaze from the Tongtian River and said quietly: "When you go out, you'd better follow your senior sister and senior brother."

The woman in white dress sitting next to Baili Yunyan was slightly startled. He always stayed in the Holy Land and rarely went out. When he saw Li Xiuyuan before, he was just a mortal, so naturally he wouldn't care.

Seeing this guy waiting to cross the river, and seeing the junior sister fighting fiercely with this guy, I couldn't help but feel worried for a moment.

She and her group of seven are already troublesome enough, but if two more are dragged in... And in her eyes, Monk Buli is clearly a cripple.

What can a man without his right arm do?

Murong Zhilan took a bite of the meat, smiled slightly and said, "Senior sister, this meat is so delicious. I have to pack some to take on the road."

Baili Yunyan smiled and replied: "Then you have to ask the boss if he has any extra."

She was smart, but she had heard what Li Xiuyuan said to the monk opposite her before. Naturally, she didn't want to compete with others over what she ate when she was away from home.

When Cuihua heard this, she couldn't help but smile and said: "Yes, I'll just sell it to you, so I can go home empty-handed."

As soon as Erwa heard that the guests wanted to take away the food, he quickly poured all the remaining mutton into the pot.

This is a big business, enough to keep him busy for half a month.

Li Xiuyuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said quietly: "Eat a little full. I don't know how far I have to run after crossing the river to find a place to rest."

Upon hearing this, Monk Buli laughed and said: "We have traveled hundreds of miles, but there is no town... we can only spend the night in the wild."

Upon hearing this, Baili Yunyan behind her frowned slightly, thinking that spending the night in the wild would mean danger. She even thought of the assassination that night.

He glanced at the woman in the white dress next to him, sighed and said, "Junior sister, let her have her own temper."

The woman in the white dress frowned, but did not speak.

Fengyun and the other four men saw that the senior sister was silent, so it was not convenient for them to say anything.

Baili Yunyan looked at the four of them and said, "Hurry, you never know when the ship will arrive."

...

Probably because she was very hungry, Murong Zhilan didn't wait until she finished a large bowl of mutton and drank half a bowl of soup before touching her belly and looking at Li Xiuyuan and laughing.

He said sheepishly: "I left early in the morning and didn't have time to eat."

Li Xiuyuan poured a cup of spiritual tea, handed it to her, and said, "Don't you have the dry food with you? Why are you letting yourself go hungry?"
