A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

Chapter 181 The Youth Following

After going to Liu Yunzhai and being rejected, Magistrate Wang didn't want to go again.

But since Butler He had spoken, it would be impossible not to go this time.

On one side, County Magistrate Wang was preparing to go to Liu Yunzhai to visit Li Xiuyuan. On the other side, Li Xiuyuan and Bai Xia had already arrived in Xuzhou.

Xuzhou was the territory of the imperial court and was not entrusted to the princes.

Entering Xuzhou Fucheng, a lively atmosphere hits your face.

Unlike the stability of Jiazhou, Xuzhou appears peaceful but is actually chaotic.

As soon as the two entered the city, they were targeted.

"The shopkeeper, two upper rooms"

Bai Xia is not short of money, and neither is Li Xiuyuan.

The people who were staring at them became even more excited when they saw how generous they were.

During their two-day stay in Xuzhou to rest and recuperate, the two spent money lavishly and bought many things.

When they left, they were all empty-handed, which fully demonstrated their wealth and willfulness.

There are many people in Xuzhou City, so it is difficult for them to take action.

The two of them walked through the market while inquiring about the kidnapper, or the traveling businessman.

Being unfamiliar with Xuzhou, those people were originally just eyeing the money of the two of them, but after hearing that they were inquiring about traveling businessmen, their expressions changed even more.

"master"

"I saw two good guys"

The people who were watching came to a small courtyard. In the courtyard was a young man, about [-] years old, lying on a recliner. He had handsome features and narrow eyes like a fox.

He had a folding fan covering his face and was taking a nap.

"If you see it, go get it back."

The young man lazily didn't want to move and cursed angrily.

The man hesitated.

"This... they live in an inn. As you know, this big inn keeps a close eye on them, and the brothers have no place to attack."

"The big guy wants to ask the master to take action"

The man looked embarrassed and was ready to be punished.

After all, it was their turn to do something like this.

"Okay, I'm bored, so I'll go take a look."

The young man stood up without blaming.

Only then did I realize that he was more than seven feet tall, with a long figure and a noble air.

The people under his command watched with a hint of amazement in their eyes. Just looking at this outfit, they thought he was a handsome young man from a noble family. In fact, the man in front of him was just a gangster.

After asking Qing Bai and Xia where they lived, the young man packed up and set off.

He usually lives in seclusion, and many people in Xuzhou City have never seen him.

He was obviously a local, but because not many people had seen him, at first glance, he thought he was an outsider coming into the city.

The face is very unfamiliar.

But very conspicuous.

After entering the inn, he glanced around the hall. When he didn't see the two people he was talking about, Bai Xia, he found a place to sit down, ordered a bottle of wine, and started drinking alone.

Upstairs, Bai Xia and Li Xiuyuan packed their things and prepared to leave.

A letter from Liu Yunzhai was delivered, saying that Magistrate Wang was visiting Li Xiuyuan for the second time, but Shuanzi's father still didn't let him in.

After all, Magistrate Wang is the head of a county and cannot break into private houses.

But twice in a row, and when he took office, Li Xiuyuan was not here and he had not seen Bai Xia.

After quietly inquiring about the people in the village, they learned that Li Xiuyuan and Bai Xia had not gone out for a while, so they already guessed that they might not be in the village anymore.

It seems that the spies sent by Prince Zhou to investigate their whereabouts are already on the way.

When the two left, they had guessed that their whereabouts would be exposed, so they didn't stay in one place for a long time.

Prince Zhou had many people at his disposal, so it was not difficult to find the traces of the two little babies.

The most important thing is that after leaving Liu Yunzhai, the two of them did not deliberately conceal their whereabouts.

It's only a matter of time before someone catches someone's eye.The two went downstairs to check out.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, the young man's eyes lit up.

He looked closely at Bai Xia, what a pretty girl.

His eyes were admiring, thinking about how to approach them.

After a while, Bai Xia and the others had left the inn and walked towards the outside of the city.

The young man paid the bill and left quickly.

He followed them from a distance, following them openly and without any attempt to hide himself.

After leaving the city gate and walking ten miles toward Jizhou, he still followed behind, waving his fan without even a drop of sweat on his forehead.

"Don't you care about him?"

Bai Xia frowned.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head. The other party was so upright, so it was hard for them to take action.

There are a lot of pedestrians on this road. Without any evidence, we can't just go up and start fighting.

The young man also had patience and just followed. Wherever Bai Xia and the others went, he would follow them. Wherever Bai Xia and the others rested, he would rest not far away.

To be honest, it was very uncomfortable to be followed by such an unknown person and not be able to beat him up.

At night, Bai and Xia took out the packed food.

A roast chicken and two plates of braised beef were heated on the fire, and a rich aroma came out.

While the two were eating, they quietly looked at the young man.

He is tall.

Judging from Bai Xia's gaze, it was probably not more than two meters.

His facial features are very good-looking, with a bit of exotic charm.

There is always a lazy look on his face.

It wasn't until Bai Xia and the others started eating that he strode forward. When he saw Bai Xia frowning, he stopped ten steps away.

"Little girl, little brother, do you still have the roast chicken in your hand? Can you sell some to me? I came out in time, but I didn't bring any dry food." The young man held the money in his hand and smiled sheepishly.

Along the way, he had been thinking about how to strike up a conversation with the two of them.

Two little kids go out alone, and it's not easy to trust strangers at first glance.

It's not impossible to do it directly, but he is a cautious person and is afraid of capsizing in the gutter.

There is a saying in the world that there are three types of people you should not mess with, the elderly, children, and women, because these three types of people dare to come out and walk alone in the world without two brushes. Especially Bai Xia, he can tell them at a glance. , she has practiced martial arts.

Don’t know how to do martial arts?
It shouldn't be low.

The young man was thinking in his mind, but with a smile on his face.

He followed him all the way. There were few people around at the moment, and there were only two of them nearby. Bai Xia tore off a chicken leg and handed it to him.

The young man smiled.

"Thank you so much, little girl, here is the money"

He hurried forward, wiped his hands casually on his body, took the chicken leg, and handed the money to Bai Xia.

Don’t give up on the free money, so you reach out and take it, seemingly stuffing it into your sleeve bag, but actually you put it into the transformation pool.

Seeing her collect the money, the young man smiled even more kindly.

There was no place to wash hands in this wilderness, so Bai Xia had to take out a handkerchief and wipe it before continuing to eat.

"Did you smell something about him?"

Li Xiuyuan approached Bai Xia and whispered in her ear.

Bai Xia nodded.

"I don't know who the other party is."

The two chatted quietly, then their eyes met.

I have been making inquiries all the way during this period, but I wonder if it is because Xuzhou is too close to Jizhou that no women have been found to be bought. More often, many children have been abducted.

There was something wrong with this young man since he appeared, and now that he was talking to them, the two simply tried to plot against him to see which path he belonged to.
