Tian Miaomiao, female, passed away at the age of 25, the cause of death being sudden collapse from staying up late.
She had thought she was about to bid farewell to this life and await reinca...
Fang Miao walked to the window and looked at the guests at the table in front of her.
The young man was wearing a pure black robe and holding an iron sword. His eyebrows and eyes were delicate but as calm as dead water, without any ripples. He just looked up at her indifferently when he heard her words.
Fang Miao smiled at him and said, "There are too many people in the hall and there are no empty seats. Can we share a table?"
She said it again to the man.
"Um."
The young man replied and focused on eating the only dish in front of him. His every move was extremely polite, but his whole body was out of place in this bustling lobby.
Fang Miao didn't look at him for long. Paying too much attention to him would be impolite. This young man was obviously not the type who was willing to talk to others.
"Sir, the food is here, please enjoy."
The waiter brought over two dishes and rice.
Fang Miao ate the vegetables with rice without disturbing the boy until they finished.
Outside the window was the street scene. While eating, Fang Miao noticed that in just a short moment, several groups of martial artists carrying weapons passed by on the street outside.
After she finished eating, she went upstairs to find Elder Miao and told him about this.
In the lobby, the young man in black looked at the clean seat opposite him, not knowing what he was thinking about, and his silent eyes moved slightly.
…
"Enter."
Elder Miao's voice came from the room.
Fang Miao pushed the door open and walked in, clasping his fists and bowing, saying, "Greetings, Elder Miao."
Elder Miao said "hmm" lightly.
"Elder Miao, many people from the martial arts world have entered the city in the past two days. My sisters are young, and I feel it is inconvenient to stay in the inn for a long time. Why don't we stay in Shaolin Temple temporarily?" She told him what she had seen and heard downstairs.
People in the underworld are always ready to fight and kill if they have a disagreement. If they gather together, trouble can easily arise. It is better to avoid them than to get involved.
Elder Miao frowned, his face showing thought.
After a moment, she looked at Fang Miao, who was steady and composed, and a smile appeared on her face. "You are the senior sister of all the disciples on this trip, so I'll follow your arrangements."
Fang Miao considerately gave her fellow students a day to wander around the city and informed them to set off the next day.
There were a total of eight junior sisters traveling together this time, all of whom were disciples who had cultivated the Green Water Technique to the second level or above. They had certain martial arts skills, so Fang Miao was not too worried.
After they came out together, Fang Miao separated from them and walked on the street alone, thinking that they would feel uncomfortable with her as their senior sister.
"Selling candied haws, big, round ones, two cents a string..."
"The latest styles of colorful flower ropes, ladies, come and take a look, don't miss it if you pass by..."
"Dear fellow villagers, we brothers are new to your precious place and have a unique skill. Please come and see it!"
"Buy a candied haws!"
"Here, girl."
Various hawking sounds rang out on the street. Fang Miao took out two cents to buy a string of candied haws, held the knife in his arms and ate while walking.
After walking half the street, Fang Miao's attention was attracted by a scene not far away.
"My dear lady, come back with me and become my third concubine, okay?"
"Grandpa, my granddaughter sells her art but not her body. She is from a good family. Please let us go."
The fat man dressed in silk and satin was harassing the pretty and frail girl. The girl, holding a pipa in her hands, retreated helplessly, but no one around dared to step forward.
The woman's grandfather was begging the man desperately, and was held aside by two men dressed as servants.
The two servants kept saying, "Old man, your granddaughter is lucky that our young master has taken a fancy to her. You should persuade her and you two can enjoy the happiness together!"
The next sentence: "Old man, please don't be ungrateful. I advise you to find out who our young master is."
In this kind of scene, there must be a young man who descends from the sky and saves the beauty.
Fang Miao bit the last candied haws and thought to herself.
“Ouch!”
"How dare you kidnap a woman in broad daylight? Let me teach you a lesson!"
Sure enough, a girl in pink jumped out from the crowd, pulled away the unkempt, fat-headed and big-eared young master, and pinned him to the ground with a sword.
"You little bitch, how dare you hit me? What are you two waiting for? Go ahead!"
The young master's face was pressed to the ground and rubbed, his eyes were filled with viciousness, and he bared his teeth and shouted at the servant beside him.
"ah……"
Seeing this, the two servants threw the old man aside and pounced on the girl in pink.
"Don't hurt my junior sister."
A man dressed as a knight flew out and shouted, then drew his sword and knocked down the two servants in no time.
Seeing the two junior sisters beat the young master and two servants to the ground, the people around them cheered secretly.
"This young master of the Zhou family usually bullies men and women, and finally he got beaten up, hahahaha!"
A diner on the street chuckled secretly.
"This kind of person deserves a beating. He relies on his father being an official in the imperial court to flaunt himself in public. He deserves a beating."
The person next to him also echoed.
On the street, the grandfather and grandson hugged each other and cried for a while, then walked up to the woman in pink and thanked her: "Thank you, lady. We, grandfather and grandson, kowtow to you."
The pink-dressed girl held up the two men with her sword and said, "As martial artists, we should help those in need when we see injustice. No need to be polite."
"Junior sister is right, you don't have to be polite, old man." The man dressed as a knight echoed.
The hunched old man thanked us but with a look of sorrow on his face, he said, "My two benefactors, don't you know that man's family is quite powerful? They will definitely come back to settle the score later. You two should leave quickly."
The granddaughter holding the pipa also had a look of fear on her face.
Seeing this, the pink-dressed girl snorted coldly and comforted the grandfather and grandson: "Don't worry, for the time being, just come back with me to this courtyard in Chang'an City and stay there. I'll see if he dares to come looking for me again. If he does, I'll beat him up."
"Junior sister!" The man next to her disagreed.
He looked at the grandfather and grandson next to him.
…
Fang Miao watched the matter come to an end and slowly walked away holding the knife.
The man and woman were also acquaintances. They were the ones she had encountered in the inn that morning who had a conflict with the innkeeper.
I didn’t expect that they were still looking for an inn in the morning, and had even bought a house in the afternoon. These two are really rich.
She sighed without much sincerity.
Seeing that it was getting late, Fang Miao didn't continue shopping and went back to the inn.
It was neither early nor late at this time, and the inn was much quieter. She walked up the stairs and was about to return to her room when she ran into a junior sister with an anxious face.
"Second Senior Sister, it's bad, Qiao Qiao has been kidnapped."
Junior sister Zhao Yun had a look of horror on her face and tears in her eyes.
"Don't be anxious. Take your time and tell me everything from beginning to end."
Fang Miao quickly comforted him.
It turned out that a moment ago, the two went shopping together and tried on clothes in a clothing store. Bai Qiao liked a piece of clothing and went to the room to try it on. Then he disappeared. Zhao Yun saw that something was wrong and hurried back to report it.
After hearing this, Fang Miao felt that this routine was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
She recalled and finally remembered.
In the main storyline, the male protagonist Liu Suifeng accidentally discovered a cult kidnapping a girl in Chang'an City, and one of the female supporting characters was kidnapped in this way.
Recalling the description in the plot, Fang Miao felt more confident and asked her junior sister Zhao Yun: "What is the name of that shop?"
"Caiyi Pavilion."
