Chapter 98 Prince Xiao Arrives
So he only has three days left.
Although there is little hope of detoxification, Yun Qingshi still plans to visit the remaining cities.
Maybe the blind cat will catch a dead mouse.
If you don’t run into anything, just think of it as a trip.
Anyway, Yun Qingshi didn't treat himself badly along the way, as he ate, drank, shopped and went shopping.
The best doctors in Danxia City had already seen him, so Yun Qingshi had no intention of staying any longer.
After looking at the map and deciding to set off for the next city early tomorrow morning, Yun Qingshi rolled up the map and put it away.
Then he arranged his pillows and lay down to sleep.
But in the blink of an eye, it had been almost an hour since he lay down, and Yun Qingshi still didn't feel sleepy at all. His eyes were wide open and he couldn't fall asleep at all.
The main thing is that the bed is not comfortable enough...
Yun Qingshi, who couldn't sleep, tossed and turned for a while before finally putting on his clothes and getting out of bed.
He drank two glasses of water first, then walked to the window and opened it.
The location of this inn is not very good and the surrounding area is not very lively, but it is not far from the river.
He was standing in front of the window at this time, and could just see the river.
The river water shimmered in the moonlight, and it looked particularly beautiful in the quiet night.
After a while, Yun Qingshi, who had seen enough of the river, looked up at the moon in the sky.
Wow, the moon is already half full.
That’s right, today is the seventh day of the lunar month, and it’s the waxing moon.
When he first came out, the moon was just a small crescent...
At this moment, a breeze blew, and Yun Qingshi quickly gathered his clothes.
After standing there for a while, I felt really cold and closed the window when the clouds cleared.
After a moment, he thought about it and asked the waiter for a pot of wine.
He used to drink some alcohol, and he would drink some red wine cocktails, but he never drank much white wine.
Yun Qingshi quickly poured a cup and tasted it. He didn’t like it very much, but he could accept it.
The alcohol content of the wine that the waiter brought was not very high, so it was not too stimulating when you drank it.
Sure enough, after drinking two glasses of wine, Yun Qingshi finally felt a little sleepy and quickly went back to the couch to sleep...
————
In the next three days, Yun Qingshi traveled to several cities.
The result of the detoxification was as expected, there was no progress.
Tomorrow is the tenth day. He has already rushed back to Jinnan City this evening, waiting to pick up the fox fur and return to the imperial city early tomorrow morning.
At this moment, Yun Qingshi's whole body exuded an emotion of despair.
On the one hand, he was disappointed that the detoxification was unsuccessful, and on the other hand, he was also annoyed at the thought of having to return to the golden birdcage soon.
But before going back, he planned to go somewhere else.
No Return Cliff.
This is also the place where Ying Shiyi died in the novel while blocking the knife for Xiao Jiwu.
He didn't have any specific purpose, he just wanted to go and take a look. He had nothing to do anyway, and it would be good to know more about it first.
Anyway, even if that day really comes, he will definitely not use his body to block the knife for others.
Because he was in a low mood, Yun Qingshi finally chose a very luxurious restaurant to have dinner.
What he was thinking was that they would go back tomorrow, so it didn’t matter whether they would be discovered by Xiao Jiwu’s men or not.
After entering the restaurant, Yun Qingshi directly stated that he wanted to book a private room.
The waiter then took Yun Qingshi upstairs.
After politely pouring tea for Yun Qingshi, the waiter then asked with a smile, "What would you like to eat, sir?"
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi took a sip of tea, turned to look at the waiter, and asked lazily, "What are your signature dishes? Please introduce them."
This was the bad thing about ancient times. There wasn't even a menu. There were just some signs hanging on the wall downstairs for people to look at and order dishes, but who could remember them?
After hearing this, the waiter was about to start introducing enthusiastically, but when he met Yun Qingshi's bright eyes, he was obviously stunned.
After a pause, he continued to introduce: "We have several signature dishes. I'll tell you one by one. As for the meat dishes, there are three fresh boneless fish, phoenix spreading wings, eight treasure gourd duck..."
After listening to the waiter's introduction, Yun Qingshi picked out a few more dishes and asked the waiter to leave.
But the waiter who left the private room did not go to the kitchen. He ran to the shopkeeper's room as fast as he could and breathlessly reported the news:
"Boss, it seems the person we're looking for has come to our restaurant. I just saw him, and his eyes are exactly the same as the one in the portrait, but I'm not sure yet. What should I do now?"
The shopkeeper stood up immediately after hearing this. After a moment's thought, he quickly instructed the waiter, "Tell the kitchen to prepare the dishes first. I'll personally deliver them later..."
"Yes." The waiter responded quickly and ran back to the kitchen.
————
In the private room, Yun Qingshi was still completely unaware that he had been exposed. While waiting for the food, he drank two cups of tea out of boredom and now began to fiddle with his sword again.
It was not until he heard footsteps at the door that he slowly placed the sword on the stool.
Sure enough, the next moment, the door was pushed open and someone came in carrying dishes.
Yun Qingshi was a little surprised to see that the person delivering the food was not the same waiter from before, and couldn't help but ask, "Why isn't it the same waiter delivering the food?"
The main thing is that the man's dress doesn't look like a waiter, but more like a shop owner.
The restaurant owner was not at all flustered when asked. He calmly placed the dishes on the tray one by one on the table after entering the room. Only after everything was placed did he explain, "Sir, several tables of guests suddenly arrived and the waiter was too busy to handle them, so I had to do it myself."
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi did not doubt it and nodded in response: "I see."
The shopkeeper also nodded with a smile, but his eyes were on the sword at Yun Qingshi's side.
"Then please enjoy your meal, sir. I'll call you if you need anything." The shopkeeper then said to Yun Qingshi.
At the same time, he had already made a decision in his heart.
Yun Qingshi nodded slightly again when he heard the voice, and his attention was now fully on the table.
He thought the phoenix spreading its wings was something else, but it turned out to be just a fried chicken that had been shaped into a new shape?
Yun Qingshi was a little speechless, and then he clamped the phoenix's leg and started to chew it.
Yun Qingshi ate his meal very slowly, probably because he didn't have to travel tomorrow, so he was not in a hurry.
After eating and drinking his fill, Yun Qingshi left the restaurant and went to find an inn to stay in.
Similarly, he also found a luxurious inn this time.
Probably because he was tired, Yun Qingshi fell asleep not long after lying down.
An unknown amount of time passed by. In the dead of night, the window of Yun Qingshi's room was silently opened outwards, and a figure appeared and stood in front of the bed.
Yun Qingshi was sleeping soundly and unaware of this...
