Volume 1 Small Events in a Big City Chapter 21 I am a female ghost, are you afraid?

After Xiao Jinyan left the city, he realized that he had forgotten to borrow money. His poor days in Suzhou City had already made him forget what money was. Fortunately, he was used to being poor and had no money, so it was not a big deal for him.

It was August, and there were endless rice fields around it, and there were several acres of harvested sweet potato fields. Xiao Jinyan dug on the ground for a long time and found two pieces of sweet potatoes left behind. He thought that dinner had fallen and was about to make a fire, but suddenly he found a rustling sound. Looking in the sound, a frightened rabbit fled outside.

Xiao Jinyan shouted, "Dinner, don't run!" He held a stone in his hand, lifted his true energy and chased the hare. Xiao Jinyan poured the true energy into his hand and bounced the stone out. The rabbit seemed to have sensed it. A snakeskin moved, dodged the stone, squeaked at him twice, and continued to run. Seeing this, Mr. Lu galloped behind.

"Small, I don't believe I can't eat you."

Xiao Jinyan chased after more than ten miles in one breath, and his eyes were dizzy. Fortunately, Mr. Lu's feet were fast enough, so he threw away his hooves and rushed over, kicking the hare out with one hooves. The rabbit squeaked and lay in front and did not move. Mr. Lu looked at Xiao Jinyan with some smugness.

Xiao Jinyan said, you have a conscience, otherwise you will eat donkey meat at night.

He stepped forward and picked up the rabbit. The rabbit opened his mouth and bit him. Xiao Jinyan exerted a little force, shaking the rabbit fainted.

The rabbit was peeled, sprinkled with salt seasoning, and used two branches to raise the rabbit. In a short while, the roasted hare meat was fragrant. Young Master Lu's eyes shone and he circled around the fire. Xiao Jinyan said, "Don't be anxious, it's almost time to fire. If there is a pot of wine, it will be perfect tonight."

However, Xiao Jinyan did not bring wine, so he went to the river not far away to draw water.

When he came back from carrying the water, he saw a woman in black coming to the fire next to the fire, using the long sword in her hand to pass the rabbit through it, lifting it on the sword, and eating with relish. Young Master Lu next to him was full of complaints and breathing at her.

Xiao Jinyan said: "Girl, this rabbit is mine!"

The woman looked up at him, her eyes were cold, and she ignored him and lowered her head to continue eating.

"It is for stealing without warning!"

The woman in black looked unhappy. The expression seemed to me to eat your rabbit, which was to give you face. Why are you still making noise here? With a swing of her right hand, a rabbit leg bone flew towards Xiao Jinyan, and it fell onto Xiao Jinyan. The stone was shattered immediately.

Xiao Jinyan thought to himself that this woman was so domineering, and she would just eat, but she deliberately showed her martial arts skills. Just now, Xiao Jinyan thought she could do it, but she was definitely not as freehand as hers. He thought for a while and thought that he was not her opponent. He looked at the woman in black in front of him, with a slim figure and a light body, and was considered a stunning beauty. However, her eyebrows and eyes were very cold, giving people the feeling that Xiao Jinyan owed her a hundred taels of silver.

Xiao Jinyan secretly advised herself to forget it. Anyway, she couldn't finish eating such a big rabbit. At worst, she could wait for her to leave and I would eat some leftovers. The woman ate very slowly, but her appetite was definitely not small. After a cup of tea, she ate a rabbit cleanly.

Xiao Jinyan asked with some distress, "Is it delicious?"

The woman ignored him.

His heart was bleeding, but fortunately, two pieces of roasted sweet potatoes were buried under the fire.

After eating the hare, the woman sniffed the two sweet potatoes out of the fire, and ate them while blowing the air. Xiao Jinyan thought to himself, why did this woman have such a big appetite? She wasn't afraid of becoming fat. After a while, she ate all the sweet potatoes, and then she packed up and clapped her hands.

"Are there any more?"

Xiao Jinyan spread his hands, "It's really gone. Girl, should you give me an explanation for stealing my food?"

The woman looked at him with some vigilance and waved the sword in her hand, as if provoking Xiao Jinyan. "The rabbit is so cute, how can you eat rabbits?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Sister, this rabbit seems to have entered your stomach, right?"

The woman said, "It's not me who killed me. It's just a rabbit. I think I think of you."

When Xiao Jinyan encountered such an unreasonable person, he was really helpless. No wonder Jia Fuzi said that it was hard to raise only women and villains. Xiao Jinyan said: "Girl, you ran out alone in the middle of the night, in the wilderness. Aren't your family afraid that something will happen to you?"

The woman in black said in a slutty voice: "I am a female ghost, are you afraid?"

Xiao Jinyan felt a cool breeze blowing through his back, and he felt cold sweat. He took two steps back, "We're not kidding!"

The woman in black laughed like a flower blooming.

Xiao Jinyan thought it was right. He just now, and I thought he had met a female ghost. Although he was a firm atheist, when he said that ghosts and gods, he would rather believe that they had it than that they did not, especially because this woman appeared so abruptly and showed her martial arts skills. Even if she was not a female ghost, she was also an extremely powerful master.

The woman said again: "Don't worry, I won't eat you for this meal."

Xiao Jinyan said, "It's okay, it's okay, I don't need to promise myself."

The woman was most disgusted with this kind of frivolous man. Seeing Xiao Jinyan’s words, she couldn’t help but say angrily: “I’m not talking!” As she said that, she raised her sword and attacked Xiao Jinyan. Xiao Jinyan retreated repeatedly and shouted, “I haven’t eaten, I can’t beat you!”

The woman put away her sword, "Just know." She pondered for a moment and said, "I originally wanted to kill you, but after eating you, I'll spare your life."

Xiao Jinyan said that there is no such truth in the world.

The woman said, "I have killed all the men who speak rudely to me."

Xiao Jinyan was shocked, "The girl is the best and kindest woman in the world. I guess she won't kill me, an unknown man. It's not too early, so please do whatever you want."

The woman in black sneered, "I have the best heart? Huh."

At this moment, a whistle suddenly came from a distance, three long and three short. When the woman in black heard it, she took out a black whistle from her mouth, blew three long and three short response, and then said, "Today, I am in a good mood and save your life. Next time I see you, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."

Xiao Jinyan said, "There will be a period later, no, there will be no future!"

The woman turned around, used her light skills, and galloped towards the whistle. In a moment, she disappeared into the night. Xiao Jinyan felt ashamed of this light skills when he saw this.

Mr. Lu screamed twice.

Xiao Jinyan was angry and said, "Silly guy, the food is gone, why didn't you stop her just now?"

Mr. Lu felt a little aggrieved, as if he had nothing to do with her. Xiao Jinyan sat down angrily, looking at the rabbit bones all over the ground, and his stomach was gingering. Mr. Lu lowered his head and gnawed the grass on the ground, chewing it in his mouth.

Xiao Jinyan cursed, get away and chew!

After all this trouble, he lost his mood to practice martial arts. He threw the straw mat next to the fire, covered his head and fell asleep.

The next morning, at midnight, Xiao Jinyan was awakened by the sound of horse hooves. He looked up and saw a convoy coming from a distance. The leader was an old man in gray, riding a black horse, followed by more than ten riders, guarding a black carriage in the middle.

The old man came to Xiao Jinyan and asked with a smile, "This guy, please ask, how to get to Yangzhou City?"

When Xiao Jinyan saw the wine gourd on his horse's back, his eyes lit up and he pondered, "This, I haven't had breakfast yet!" The old man in gray smiled slightly, "There are still a few pancakes here. If you don't dislike it, please accept it with a smile."

After ten pancakes fell to their stomachs, Xiao Jinyan burped, "Is there any wine?"

The old man took off the wine gourd and threw it over. Xiao Jinyan reached out to take it, opened the wine gourd, raised his head and drank it. The strong wine was in his mouth, which was extremely spicy. Xiao Jinyan shouted, "Good wine!" He drank the wine clean in one breath.

Xiao Jinyan pursed his lips, "Yangzhou, walk 120 miles along this official road, and see a Niujiazhuang. Turn north and walk another thirty miles, and it will be Yangzhou City."

The old man in gray thanked him and asked again, "Brother, can you go to Yangzhou too?"

“That’s right!”

"Since we are both going to Yangzhou and we are not familiar with the place, we might as well travel together. First, we will take care of each other, and second, please ask the guy to be a guide. After arriving in Yangzhou, we are willing to give ten taels of silver as a reward. I wonder what if I think?"

Xiao Jinyan looked at the convoy and found that three of the more than ten riders were injured. There were arrow marks on the black carriage, so he knew that these people must have been in trouble. However, the temptation of ten taels of silver was too great, which made him hesitate.

The old man said again, "If the young man thinks it's too little, it's better to have fifteen taels?"

Xiao Jinyan laughed, "Since my brother is so happy, if I refuse, wouldn't it seem that I am unreasonable?" As he said that, he slapped Mr. Lu who was sleeping, "Silly guy, get up, eat more than me every time, and sleep longer than me. If you believe it or not, I will sell you when I arrive in Yangzhou City!"

Young Master Lu yelled twice in dissatisfaction.

Xiao Jinyan rolled over the donkey and said let's go.

The group drove towards Yangzhou.

Xiao Jinyan ignored the invitation of the old man in gray and walked deliberately behind the convoy, thinking that if he met a little thief, he could do something good. If the other party was a tricky person, he slapped the donkey's butt and escaped. Along the way, the old man deliberately asked Xiao Jinyan to make a cliché. Xiao Jinyan responded casually and ignored him.

At noon, we arrived at an inn.

Everyone got off the horse at the post station and went in to have a meal in batches. The rest were guarding the black carriage. Soon, a maid in red came down on the carriage and went to the post station to pick up some food on the bus. Before getting on the bus, her vigilant eyes fell on Xiao Jinyan and looked at her for a long time.

Xiao Jinyan suddenly realized that there were female relatives in the car. Seeing these people dressed up, they should be people from the martial arts world, and they seemed to have been in trouble.

Inside the station.

A subordinate said to the old man in gray, "Elder Liu, the man surnamed Xiao, didn't come early or late, but appeared on our way to Yangzhou City. The subordinate believed that this person was a bit difficult."

The old man in gray said, "This gourd is drunk for three days and is extremely drunk. Even if I am, I only dare to drink three sips at a time. This person drank two pounds in one breath, and his face did not change. He must be an ordinary person."

"Then why do you still have to stay with you?"

"I just deliberately tested him. When this person saw the arrow marks on the body of the car, he was a little hesitant, obviously not a false act. I used my internal force to explore his martial arts, but I felt that his inner breath was very strange, and even I couldn't see through him. If those thieves chased him, they might be able to help us."

"What if it's the spy sent by the other party?"
