Within a day, the four of them changed modes of transportation such as planes, buses, shuttle buses, and three-wheelers, and finally settled in a country B&B late at night.
It's just a name for saying it's a B&B.
The villagers built and renovated their own houses.
It was too late, and the B&B didn't provide food, but for a little extra money you could cook it yourself, so Song Yiyuan and Chi Shi worked in the kitchen, and then brought out four plates of fried rice.
"Come and try my handiwork."
Song Yiyuan handed two plates of fried rice to Mo Qing and Jiang Ke.
Chi Shi followed behind without saying a word, giving a plate of fried rice to Song Yiyuan, and then distributed four pairs of chopsticks and four spoons.
Mo Qing took a bite of the fried rice and it tasted surprisingly good. She asked Song Yiyuan, "Can it arrive tomorrow?"
"We can definitely get there tomorrow, it's the next town." Song Yiyuan has been here once and is familiar with the roads. "Today there are no cars in the township, so we were delayed. When we get to the next town, we will rest for a day and prepare all the necessary preparations.
Once it's all together, we can go up the mountain the day after tomorrow."
Song Yiyuan paused and said: "If Xiao Yuqun is really here, he should show up soon."
When he spoke, his eyes were slightly darker, hiding a cold edge.
The three people present heard him mention "Xiao Yuqun" and all knew what he was thinking.
The accident that killed Song Jianghe was inseparably related to the New World, and since Xiao Yuqun escaped, Hoss found new clues - all of this was most likely arranged by Xiao Yuqun.
Xiao Yuqun's plan may be to kill Song Yiyuan directly.
His goal is to become the captain of a team.
However, Song Yiyuan did not die, but chose to leave voluntarily, and his goal was achieved in disguise.
"Eat full first, then take a nap." Jiang Ke opened a can of beer, put it in front of Song Yiyuan, and said quietly, "Whether he comes or not, you can't escape."
When Chi Shi was eating quietly, he heard Jiang Ke talking and glanced at Jiang Ke.
If Jiang Ke felt something, he looked towards Chi Shi, but Chi Shi had already looked away.
Song Yiyuan picked up the beer and drank half of it in one breath.
The beer was ice-cold, and it was very cold to the bones when I drank it, but the raging emotions in my chest were suppressed for the time being.
He lowered his head and took big gulps of rice into his mouth.

After the four of them had eaten and drank enough, they went back to their room to wash up. It was already three or four in the morning when they finished their work.
Mo Qing and Jiang Ke shared a room, and Song Yiyuan and Chi Shi shared a room.
Mo Qing came out of the shower and wiped his hair with a towel. He looked up and saw Jiang Ke standing in front of the window sill. He walked over suspiciously: "Why are you doing here if you don't want to sleep?"
The windows are open, letting in the cool winter breeze.
Jiang Ke turned his head and saw that Mo Qing was wearing thin clothes. He grabbed the blanket on the sofa and put it over Mo Qing's shoulders, wrapping her whole body in it.
He frowned very lightly: "It seems like someone is staring at me."
"I don't feel cold."
Mo Qing said this, but did not pull off the blanket that was wrapped around him.
She took two steps toward the window, lowered her head, and scanned the situation below with her night vision.
Downstairs was a vegetable field, and a little further away was a bamboo forest. There was no light at night, so her visibility was limited, but after careful inspection, she didn't see anyone.
She asked: "When?"
"Just now."
Jiang Ke stretched out his hand, took the towel from her hand, spread it out in his hand, then covered her head and wiped it gently.
He continued: "I heard the sound of the window closing next door, so I walked over and closed the window. I felt some movement down there, but I didn't see anything."
"Close the window next door?" Mo Qing enjoyed Jiang Ke's hair-wiping service, "Song Yiyuan, or Chi Shi?"
Jiang Ke paused slightly: "Chi Shi."
"That's probably because you're overthinking it," Mo Qing said. "You've heard the noise, so there's no way he can't hear it. If he hears the noise, there's no way he would close the window."
"……Um."
Jiang Ke lowered his eyes and did not argue.
Mo Qing asked: "But have you noticed that Chi Shi has been talking less and less recently?"
Jiang Ke said: "He always talks little."
"..."
Mo Qing thought about it and felt that Jiang Ke was right.
Maybe she is sensitive.
After deciding to stop taking Chi Shi's medication, Mo Qing was worried whether Chi Shi would suddenly regain his memory and recall some unnecessary things.
but--
If Chi Shi really recovered his memory, he should not remain silent, but should speak directly.
After a while, Jiang Ke asked, "Guess who Chi Shi will choose between me and Jiang Yan?"
Mo Qing raised his eyebrows: "True?"
"truth."
"Jiang Yan," Mo Qing said, "he has always been sincere and only listens to Jiang Yan's words."
Jiang Ke was noncommittal.
"But you don't have to worry about anything." Mo Qing suddenly grabbed Jiang Ke's hand and turned around with a smile in his eyes, "He can't beat me after all."
Jiang Ke chuckled and took her into his arms: "Okay."
…
Because they all slept late the night before, none of them had any intention of getting up early.
At around eight o'clock, Mo Qing woke up, got up and opened the window to get some air.
But the moment she opened the window, her peripheral vision swept across the bamboo forest in the northwest, and she suddenly paused.
In the bamboo forest, there were three figures standing in a hidden place, looking over here. When they noticed that the window was pushed open, they pushed each other and hid immediately.
