Chapter 256 The Miao Youth is a Proud Male Supporting Character (33)
Lin Shen and his companions stayed in Shang State for a few more days and prepared to leave.
Lin Shen has already talked to the three of them about the day when the wizard revealed his identity as a member of the Miaojiang tribe. They all know that the Miaojiang tribe's demise is not as simple as it seems, and it cannot be just the conspiracy of Jin Xu'an alone. Perhaps more than a decade ago, there was a huge secret waiting for them to uncover.
Lin Shen had the answer in his heart, but he also enjoyed the process of exploring the truth.
The four of them sat together and discussed it, and finally decided to go to the old site of Su Family Villa to investigate first.
That is the former residence of Suhebei's parents, perhaps some clues can be found there.
As for the search for the hermit, I decided to put it on hold for the time being, because it requires fate and cannot be forced.
After the agreement, the four began to pack their bags.
Shang Meng was naturally among them, and the affairs of Shang State had been fully handed over to Shang Xun.
Speaking of Shang Xun, Lin Shen remembered that they had not met again since that day.
Everything was ready, and they set out north again. Su Family Villa was located in Jizhou, the northernmost part of the Northern Territory, only a few hundred kilometers away from where they were, so it was not far.
After choosing the departure date, the four of them prepared to set off.
Before leaving, they met Shang Xun, who looked a little depressed.
Lin Shen was a little worried about him at first, after all, he had participated in the sacrificial ceremony, but Shang Xun just stared at Lin Shen for a while, and then quickly looked away.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Shang Meng broke the silence by speaking directly: "Brother, are you very familiar with Shen Shen?"
Shang Xun looked at her coldly without saying anything.
Shang Meng was not angry, she just curled her lips and turned away.
Lin Shen looked at Shang Xun again, then left with Su Hebei and Yu Wuyan.
After walking a few steps, Lin Shen heard Shang Xun's voice coming from behind: "Be careful on your way..."
He turned, nodded, and continued walking.
Shang Xun looked at their backs and sighed deeply.
He looked solemnly at the jade pendant on his waist, on which was engraved the word "deep", which seemed to silently express his unexpressible feelings.
?
The four of them had a smooth journey without encountering any strange things and arrived in Jizhou safely.
Jizhou is located at the edge of the northern region and borders foreign races. Blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.
It is an extremely prosperous place with a blend of various cultures and full of exotic customs.
After discussing with each other, Lin Shen and the other three decided to find an inn to rest first.
They chose a busy inn with a large flow of people, which made it convenient for them to gather information.
Yu Wuyan was responsible for communicating with the waiter, while Lin Shen and the other two found an empty table and sat down.
There were people coming and going in the inn, all kinds of people, but the appearance of Lin Shen and his companions undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention. Their looks stood out in the crowd, especially Lin Shen, who was even more eye-catching.
Yu Wuyan came back soon, and the four of them drank a few sips of tea first, while quietly observing the people around them.
Lin Shen's gaze involuntarily turned to a man in the corner. He was sitting casually, his clothes were dusty, and his face was covered with a beard. He looked like an ordinary uncle, but his eyes revealed a strong sense of aggression that made Lin Shen feel uneasy.
Yu Wuyan noticed Lin Shen's gaze and looked over, only to see an ordinary man who had already lowered his head.
Yu Wuyan was a little confused, but Lin Shen didn't think much about it and looked away.
Soon, the sumptuous meal was served. Lin Shen took a look and nodded, and the four of them began to eat.
After eating, they went back to the inn to rest.
As night fell, everyone was tired after two days of traveling, so they went straight to sleep.
As soon as Lin Shen lay down, he heard a sound coming from the window.
He groaned impatiently, turned over and said to the person outside the window: "Can you speak a little more quietly?"
The man laughed, slowed down his pace, and tried to get closer to Lin Shen.
Lin Shen turned over, yawned, and warned: "If you take another step forward, Xiaobai will bite you."
The man looked down and saw a small white snake. Instead of being afraid, he smiled and said, "It's pretty cute."
Lin Shen didn't say anything, just stared at the man.
The window was open and the moonlight poured in, shining on the man's face, making his full beard look a little funny.
Lin Shen looked at it and couldn't help laughing: "So ugly."
The man paused, touched his face, then took off his beard, revealing a pale yet handsome face, which was the long-missing A Jing.
With a look of distress on his face, he said softly, "Not ugly."
Lin Shen was too lazy to pay attention to him and closed his eyes.
A Jing blinked and asked, "Aren't you curious why I'm here?"
Lin Shen opened his eyes and looked at him meaningfully: "Oh... so what? Why?"
He spoke calmly, as if he didn't care.
Ah Jing was not angry. He forced a smile and said, "We have already finished the wedding ceremony. Now we are meant to be a couple. I will take you away."
Lin Shen sneered, propped himself up, and moved his eyes around, making A Jing stare in amazement.
"Why?" A Jing's face was full of confusion. He obviously couldn't understand Lin Shen's coldness.
Lin Shen was too lazy to pay attention to him and cursed in his heart: What a lunatic, he is not a human being, so he naturally doesn't understand human emotions.
Lin Shen turned over, lay back on the bed and closed his eyes.
A Jing looked at the young man lying down in distress. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Lin Shen's tired face, he finally chose to remain silent.
He sat there quietly, staring at Lin Shen intently, until daybreak, then he quietly left the room.
When Lin Shen woke up, he glanced around as usual, and after confirming that everything was normal, he nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Lin Shen got up and opened the door. Standing outside was Yu Wuyan with a shy smile on his face and some breakfast in his hand.
Yu Wuyan said softly: "Shen Shen, I brought you breakfast, please eat it quickly."
Lin Shen smiled and let Yu Wuyan in. Yu Wuyan bought many kinds of breakfast. While eating, Lin Shen asked, "Did you go out early?"
Yu Wuyan blushed and replied softly: "It's not that early. I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well go for a walk."
Lin Shen nodded and continued to enjoy his food.
Yu Wuyan squinted his eyes with satisfaction, thinking that it would be even better if he could bring breakfast to Lin Shen every day. He liked taking care of Lin Shen.
Halfway through the meal, there was another knock on the door.
Yu Wuyan stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."
Lin Shen nodded.
Su Hebei at the door happily straightened his clothes and said with a smile: "Shen Shen, morning..."
His words suddenly got stuck in his throat because he didn't see Lin Shen, but Yu Wuyan.
He scratched his head, took a step back, looked at the house number again, and thought: That's right, doesn't Lin Shen live here? Why is it Yu Wuyan?
The two of them sat in silence, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Until Lin Shen's voice came from the room: "Who is it?"
When Su Hebei heard Lin Shen's voice, he rushed in immediately and saw the table full of food.
He hid the wonton in his hand behind him a little embarrassedly, obviously not expecting that Yu Wuyan had already prepared breakfast for Lin Shen.
