After eating and drinking, it was already late at night, Xue Da Bangchui, whose face was red and drunk, must let Li Yu live in his carriage, and he would sleep in the tent by himself.
Li Yu couldn't resist, but he also wanted to experience the life of a wealthy family member, so he agreed half-heartedly.
Xue Pan didn't come out to do business, it was more like he came out to play.
Li Yu looked at the luxurious carriage and felt a bit of envy, jealousy and hatred towards the wealthy family.
The cool and comfortable seat cushions are woven from rattan in southern Xinjiang, and the red camel hair carpet comes from the Parthian Empire in the west. Even the car body is made of precious Liaodong Haixi wood, exuding a light aroma, which has the effect of calming the mind and promoting sleep.
A faint, soft yellow light emanated from a glass cover. Li Yu went over to pick up the cover and found a luminous pearl inside.
Li Yu secretly exclaimed, "Good guy, these beads are priceless, Xue Pan used them as light bulbs..."
Li Yu lay down on the wicker chair and wanted to take out the bamboo slips again, but then he remembered that the luggage containing the bamboo slips was still with Lian'er.
He quickly got out of the car and came to Xiao Jinlian's tent. The sound of footsteps attracted the attention inside, and he asked timidly yet vigilantly: "Who is that person?"
"It's me."
Hearing Li Yu's familiar voice, Xiao Jinlian relaxed and opened the tent and said: "Brother Li Yu, I'm so scared. There are all strangers here. I..."
She didn't dare to sleep at all, she was well-dressed and holding a book in her arms, which was "The Legend of the Martyr Woman" that Li Yu bought for her.
Although she didn't know what the book was and didn't recognize a single word, she often slept with it in her arms and felt very safe.
After all, this is the first gift that brother Li Yu gave her...
The conditions of this tent are a bit crude. The ground is full of withered grass. The bedding prepared by the shopkeeper is spread on the ground.
Under such conditions, it is not surprising that there are big men snoring loudly all around. It would not be surprising if some small insects crawl into the place.
Li Yuxin said the same thing. After all, she was just a teenage girl. She took her luggage and said, "Follow me to the carriage."
Xiao Jinlian lowered her head and hummed, she couldn't help but purse her lips, and there were small pear dimples on her cheeks.
The two of them got into the carriage together. Although the people in the caravan pointed at them, they thought it was normal.
Li Yu and Lian'er have been in the same room many times. He is used to it, and so is Little Jin Lian, who is even somewhat dependent on them.
Li Yu separated a curtain, which was a Shu brocade screen, and said: "I'm sleeping on a wicker chair. You throw Xue Da...Xue Pan's bedding on the ground and spread your own."
---
On one side of the screen, little Jinlian was wearing that close-fitting shirt, with her two snow-white forearms exposed, a strand of black hair hanging down from her forehead, sitting on the bedside holding her knees.
He tilted his head and looked at the figures on the screen, and heard Li Yu's silly smiles from time to time.
Every time Li Yu smiled, she couldn't help but feel happy, but after a moment, she frowned again.
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes revealed a touch of melancholy, and she bit her lips lightly, not knowing what she was thinking about.
The lonely girl's thoughts should appear melancholy, but no matter how you look at them, there is a coquettish quality...
This little girl is naturally charming, I really don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing...
Li Yu was still immersed in the joy of tonight. He had just used the Thick Earth Technique, and the two clay figures were completely different from before. The lava clay figures that followed were even more powerful.
He is said to be a little tiger monster, but even if he fights Gongsun Sheng, he feels a little confident.
That day in Huangnigang, Gongsun Sheng fought against Yang Zhi. His Taoist skills were also very exquisite, but they did not give Li Yu any pressure that was difficult to resist.
Of course, Li Yu still didn't dare to provoke someone like Yang Zhi. The power of his sword that day still makes people shudder when he thinks about it now.
Yang Zhi is already so powerful, I really don’t know what kind of monsters those powerful men who are famous all over the world are.
Li Yu sat on the wicker chair and looked at the bamboo slips in his hands, as if he were looking at the most beautiful and lovely girl, who couldn't put it down.
He was not sure how the bamboo slips had changed, nor did he think it had anything to do with the broken rattan. Instead, he suspected that it was the work of the strange stone.
This stone exuded an evil energy. Li Yu also knew that keeping it around might not be a good thing, but he just couldn't bear to throw it away.
All parties are snatching it, fighting over it, it must have its value.
The most important thing is that the stone seems to be relying on itself, or in other words, relying on the rattan. The last time it came out on its own initiative, sucked up the mountain ghosts, and then returned to the bag, it was more like a spiritual being.
"The Thick Earth Technique is already so powerful, when will we be able to get together the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth..."
Li Yu secretly shook his head, thinking that this was just a fantasy. It would be great if he could get another book in his lifetime.
However, there is no guarantee of chance. You still have to have a dream. What if it comes true?
He pillowed on the bamboo slips and slowly fell into sleep.

With the caravan accompanying us, the journey seemed to be shortened, and we arrived at Kaifeng Mansion in just half a month.
Li Yu originally planned to leave for two months. The caravan was full of carriages. With transportation tools and no need to buy them, he could naturally go quickly.
Standing on a high hill and looking down, what is in front of everyone's eyes is a huge city. Its walls are towering into the clouds and its suspension bridge is more than ten feet wide. Human beings are as weak as ants in front of it.
Under the city wall and on the official road, there are densely packed pedestrians.
It is said that this city has a population of tens of millions. It is the most prosperous city in the Six Dynasties above ground, and there is a ghost market underground. As long as you can find the right price, you can buy anything.
"Xue Pan, what does your caravan do?"
As soon as he mentioned this, Xue Pan showed no interest. On the contrary, the attendant next to him smiled and replied: "Master Taoist, I don't know that our Xue family's industry is not limited to one category. We do everything that can make money. There are silks, silks, needlework
salt
There are also drinking vessels. The finest Jinzhou silk, Qing'an thread, jade fans made of Qiong jade, Shuozhou horses, Jingchuan sugar, fresh food from the south, horses from the north, and overseas rare treasures are all available, and they are sold from south to north.
Fishing for profit."
"No wonder he is so rich." Li Yu chuckled.
He just felt the obvious golden spirit from the goods. After a little testing, he found that there were iron, copper and soldiers in this caravan.
"Then do you sell weapons and armor?"
The follower was startled, then put on a smile and said, "The Taoist priest is joking, that is a forbidden business, how dare we dare? Even if we dare, we will not be able to pass the checkpoints along the way."
"Oh, that's right." Li Yu chuckled and didn't point it out, but the followers around him felt like they were being seen through.
Xue Pan smiled and said: "These things are nothing important. Brother Li Yu, there is Bianliang City ahead. Have you been there?"
"I've never been here, but I've heard of it."
"Me too! It is said that this place is more prosperous than Jinling. I want to experience it this time!"
