Jiang Jingyu looked at him with feigned confusion.
Tan Tai Si tugged at his collar and lied seriously, "My clothes are thick, so I'm a little hot."
"Then you should change your clothes. I'll go downstairs and ask the waiter for the scissors."
After Jiang Jingyu finished speaking, she turned and walked out of the room.
Tan Tai Si let out a breath and quickly raised his hand to fan his hot face. He didn't jump up from the bed until the burning sensation on his face dissipated.
Jiang Jingyu asked the waiter for a pair of scissors and brought a basin of water from downstairs.
When she came in with the basin of water, Tan Tai Si was fiddling with the diexie at his waist.
Seeing how clumsy he was, Jiang Jingyu looked helpless, put the basin of water on the table and walked towards him.
"Let me do it."
She came to Tan Tai Si, put her hands through his waist, and grabbed the leg that he had twisted crookedly.
Tan Tai Si's heart was hit hard.
He subconsciously raised his arms and looked down at Jiang Jingyu who was hugging his waist.
At that moment, her long eyelashes, straight nose and delicate lips were all taken into his sight.
"elder sister."
Tan Tai Si suddenly called out softly.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Jingyu didn't even raise her head, but continued to tie the belt around his waist with her head down.
Tan Tai Si said the second half of the sentence with a deep look in his eyes.
"It's so kind of you."
Jiang Jingyu paused, curled her lips, hooked her fingers around the straps already tied around his waist, and pulled him towards the table.
"Okay, stop talking to me. Come here and let me fix your hair."
Although Tan Tai Si had changed into the clothes of a Central Plains person, the braid of her hair made of red rope was too eye-catching.
He is already handsome and eye-catching, and with that flamboyant braid, it is hard for others not to notice him.
Although Jiang Jingyu didn't know what happened during the chaos in the martial arts world more than ten years ago, since his father said that people in the martial arts world hated Miao Jiang very much, Tan Tai Si might not be able to enter the martial arts competition with this outfit.
Under Jiang Jingyu's instructions, Tan Tai Si sat on the bench.
"If you want to hide your identity from the Jianghu people, you need to cut some hair."
"I'll listen to my sister."
Tan Tai Si responded readily and didn't mind her cutting off his long hair.
Jiang Jingyu patiently untied his pigtails. After the pigtails were untied, Tan Tai Si instantly became the Black-haired Lion King.
Jiang Jingyu chuckled and wet Tan Tai Si's hair bit by bit.
"Do all the Miao people wear so many braids on their heads?"
"Um."
"Wouldn't it be very troublesome to take care of your hair? Who braids your hair?"
"My mother."
When mentioning his mother, a softer look appeared on Tan Tai Si's face.
Jiang Jingyu raised her eyebrows and continued talking about this topic.
"You said you came to the Central Plains to find medicine for your mother. Is your mother sick?"
"She's not sick, she was poisoned."
This was the first time that Tan Tai Si mentioned something about his mother in front of outsiders. Although he still felt resentful after so many years, he was now able to remain calm when mentioning the matter.
"Poisoned?" Jiang Jingyu pricked up her ears. "What kind of poison?"
"It's a poison called Jue Yan. Anyone poisoned by it will lose the ability to speak."
Tan Tai Si's tone was calm, but there was endless coldness in the depths of his eyes.
Jiang Jingyu didn't ask any more questions, but said, "My mother loves to research various antidotes. Maybe she can help your mother detoxify."
"Thank you for your kindness, sister. However, this is a family feud, and I don't want to involve others. So, I will personally deliver the antidote to mother."
Tan Tai Si rejected her kindness.
If that person knew the source of the antidote, he would definitely not give up.
He didn't want to bring trouble to his sister, and he wouldn't allow anyone to hurt her.
After wetting and smoothing Tan Tai Si's hair, Jiang Jingyu picked up a pair of scissors and cut a section of his hair, and then tied his hair up according to the hairstyle of men in the Central Plains.
After tidying her hair, Jiang Jingyu looked Tan Tai Si up and down.
"Yes, he originally looked about 50% like a Central Plains person, but after changing his clothes, he looks 70% to 80% like a Central Plains person."
After seeing the small strand of hair left on Tan Tai Si's head, Jiang Jingyu leaned over and tidied it up for him.
"The first time you braid someone else's hair, it might not be as good as the one your mother braided for you."
After hearing that this was her first time tying someone's hair, Tan Tai Si felt a little excited.
"Sister's hair-tying skills are very good, I like it."
"Tsk, what a sweet mouth! You must have fooled little girls a lot, right?"
Jiang Jingyu glanced at him and then went to the side to pack her luggage.
Tan Tai Si also stood up and followed her, emphasizing, "There is no little girl, only sisters."
Jiang Jingyu raised her eyebrows and jokingly said, "Really? Then little brother, you must remain a virgin for me from now on. When I'm tired of traveling around the world, I'll take you home as my husband!"
"Okay, then I'll wait for my sister to calm down."
Tan Tai Si raised the corners of his eyes and continued with her words half-seriously and half-falsely.
Although the two of them were not in a hurry to travel, they did not have much time to stay in one place for long.
After packing up, the two of them mounted their horses again and headed towards Fengdu.
"Get out of the way, everyone!"
A sharp shout came from the horse's back, and the people walking on the road hid aside in fear, fearing that this group of seemingly wild and brutal people would bump into them.
The people waited until the group of people passed by and walked away before they dared to speak.
"What happened? Why are there so many strangers in our town all of a sudden?"
"I don't know. I haven't heard anything happened in the town!"
"Those guys look fierce and vicious. Could they be robbers coming to rob the town?!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. They stopped buying things and turned around to rush home!
Jiang Jingyu and Tan Taisi, who had just come out of the inn, happened to meet this group of people. This group of people rode their horses as if they were risking their lives, and passed by them with a gust of wind.
The dust that was raised got into Jiang Jingyu's nose, choking her and making her sneeze twice.
Tan Tai Si hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it to her: "Sister, quickly cover it with the handkerchief."
Jiang Jingyu took the handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose with it, then rode through the mud and dust, and only put the handkerchief down when her vision cleared.
"I'll return the handkerchief to you. Why are these people so impatient? They're choking me to death!"
As she spoke, she coughed twice more and turned her head to look at the group of people who had disappeared from her sight.
Tan Tai Si shrugged: "It's none of our business, let's go."
As they talked, the two continued walking forward and soon left Qinghe Town.
The leader of Qingyun Mountain led a group of people and headed straight for the shop that Zhuzi mentioned.
When they arrived at the door of the shop, several ferocious-looking men dismounted from their horses and rushed into the shop with knives in hand!
"Where's the person? Hand him over!"
The shopkeeper who was counting the bills raised his head after hearing the sound, and was so scared when he saw those big men with knives that his legs went weak!
"Sir, sir, who are you looking for?"
