The crowd watching the excitement downstairs had dispersed, and continued to talk about their own topics as if nothing had happened.
I have to say, the rich aroma of wine mixed with the delicious food does not seem abrupt at all, but rather more harmonious.
As if to verify his guess, Gu Qingze went downstairs and observed the people around him.
Although Chu Lingxiao didn't know what he was looking for, he didn't disturb him and just followed him silently.
Finally, between the gaps among the group of people sitting around, Gu Qingze saw a figure in the corner.
When their eyes met, they were both stunned.
Chu Lingxiao also followed his gaze out of curiosity and reacted in the same way as him.
After a while, the two of them came to their senses, walked closer, and greeted each other.
"Su Han, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you in Xingyun City."
Before Su Han could speak, he saw a small head popping out from his side. Judging from his appearance, he was a teenager.
Gu Qingze was a little surprised. He hadn't seen this young man just now. It was probably because his vision was partially blocked by the crowd.
When the young man saw Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao, he seemed to feel insecure and tugged at the corner of Su Han's clothes.
"Brother Su Han, are these two your acquaintances?"
Su Han glanced at them, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"...We're friends."
"Wow, Brother Su Han actually had friends before!"
After hearing Su Han's words, the young man's previous vigilance disappeared instantly, and he walked up to them as if he was familiar with them.
"I wonder what the names of these two friends are?"
"My name is Gu Qingze, and this is Chu Lingxiao."
Gu Qingze briefly introduced himself.
"Hello everyone, my name is Song Jinnian, and I'm Su Han's junior fellow apprentice."
Song Jinnian greeted them warmly, "Since you are Brother Su Han's friends, then we are friends too!"
Gu Qingze smiled and nodded. He didn't mind being familiar with others. On the contrary, it would help him to get closer to others and avoid being too awkward when getting along with others. It would be much easier to have someone like him in the crowd.
Su Han glanced at Song Jinnian helplessly, and explained to Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao: "Don't mind."
Gu Qingze smiled, understanding Su Han's words of protection for his junior fellow apprentice.
"Your little junior brother is quite cute."
When Song Jinnian heard someone praising him for being cute, his face turned red and he looked very excited.
"Thank you for the compliment, but... I would be happier if it was Brother Su Han who said that."
After saying this, he looked meaningfully at the person next to him, but it was obvious that Su Han did not understand the meaning of his words.
"Are you going to the demon world too?"
Gu Qingze asked, although he felt that he was asking nonsense. After all, most people who came to Xingyun City were going to the demon world, but he just took the opportunity to bring up a topic and be polite.
"Yeah." Su Han replied.
Still the same few words...
Gu Qingze couldn't help but complain.
Fortunately, Song Jinnian took over the topic and prevented it from falling to the ground.
"I'm going to the demon world to visit my relatives. I haven't seen my parents for a long time. Brother Su Han wants to accompany me."
Faced with Song Jinnian's ambiguous words, Su Han acted as if he had not heard anything and did not refute.
"What about you guys? Are you also returning to the demon world to visit relatives like us?"
Song Jinnian seemed to understand the principle of give and take, and asked back.
"...I'm here to find a magical herb that's unique to the demon world."
Gu Qingze hesitated for a while, but still roughly told some unimportant information. After all, the temptation of "Sanshenghua" was too great, so it was better to be cautious. Besides, they did not lie, they just did not tell the whole story.
"Since we're both going to the demon world, maybe we can go together."
Song Jinnian suggested, his dog eyes full of anticipation.
"Besides, you two are both human. You won't be familiar with the demon world. Why don't you let me lead the way for you? Brother Su Han is sullen and doesn't like to talk much. If you two join us, it might be more interesting."
Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao pondered for a moment and felt that what Song Jinnian said made sense. This was better than being completely in the dark.
Moreover, Song Jinnian is Su Han's junior fellow apprentice. Although his specific information is unknown, his credibility is still higher.
They looked at each other, nodded, and agreed to his proposal.
"Okay, let's go together."
When Song Jinnian heard that they agreed, the light in his eyes became brighter and he looked very happy.
"Yeah!"
Although he really didn't want to pour cold water on him, Chu Lingxiao couldn't help but remind him.
"If we discover anything along the way, we might be separated from you."
"It's okay. Brother Su Han has also taken on a lot of missions. He always disappears and doesn't wait for me to complete the mission alone. But he usually comes back the next day, so I'm used to it. You guys shouldn't go any further than Brother Su Han, right?"
Song Jinnian couldn't help but complain, and then looked at them with his innocent big eyes.
"...That won't happen."
Chu Lingxiao was slightly stunned. He was always wary of other people. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Song Jinnian was not as harmless as he appeared to be... Of course, it was also possible that he was making malicious speculations.
"Since we're already traveling together, how about giving our temporary team a super-super-nice name?"
