Chapter 127 Thoughtful 01
Qingshui County is a small city with a small population. Yun Yuxi did not alarm the local government and arranged for Lingyi to buy daily necessities and horse fodder. After a short rest, everyone recovered well.
"Boss, fifty kilograms of braised beef, twenty jars of good wine, and one hundred flatbreads," Lingyi said with a smile as he threw some silver on the shopkeeper's table.
The shopkeeper picked up the silver with a start, bit it with his teeth and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. The quantity you want is too large, and we don't have that much in our small place. Please wait for half an hour. Our store only has 30 kilograms of braised beef. I will arrange for the waiter to buy the remaining 20 for you at the store on the street," said the shopkeeper with a flattering smile.
"Okay. Hurry up, prepare our breakfast first," Lingyi said.
Yun Yuxi rubbed her neck. She had a stiff neck last night. When she went downstairs, Lingyi had already arranged everything for the journey.
Lingyi reported everything to Yun Yuxi in detail. Yun Yuxi looked at Lingyi with appreciation and added, "Go out and see if there are any shops on the street that sell pork bones. Go and buy another 50 kilograms of pork bones, 100 bread cakes, some salt and sugar. Also buy a carriage to hold these items. We will leave in half an hour, so hurry up."
Everyone quickly sat around the table one by one. After breakfast, the waiter had already bought back the braised beef, but Lingyi had not come back.
"He said we should get going early. Look everyone. Lingyi is just playing around. It's such a small place, but he wants to go out and play. I'm speechless," Liu Lin said after looking at everyone.
At this time, Lingyi came back in the carriage with a smile on his face. Everyone looked at Lingyi and no one paid any attention to Liulin. Liulin smiled and said, "Brother Lingyi, where have you been?"
"Doctor Liu. I'm going to purchase supplies on the orders of my master," Ling Yi said as he jumped off the carriage and nodded to Yun Yuxi. At this time, Liu Lin was extremely embarrassed.
"Are you all ready?" Yun Yuxi asked
"Okay," everyone said in unison.
"Let's go!" Yun Yuxi took the lead and walked out. She was dressed as a man and looked heroic. The waiter and the old shopkeeper were stunned.
"Quanzi. I'm afraid we have met an important person. I think this group of people are not simple. You'd better watch your mouth. If someone asks, just say you have never seen them. You know, otherwise your life will be in danger. Judging from the direction they are heading towards Lucheng. I'm afraid it will be dangerous to go there..." The old shopkeeper said worriedly.
"Boss, I'll listen to you," the waiter nodded and said.
The snow finally stopped, and Yun Yuxi's mood became relaxed and happy with the change of weather. Since she came to this world, she has never left her home. Now, she finally has the opportunity to go out of the house and experience the outside world. This feeling makes her feel extremely excited and expectant, like a bird that has been bound for a long time and can finally spread its wings and fly high in the vast sky.
After half a day, they passed a dense forest. Next to the forest flowed a clear stream, the water gurgling and making a pleasant sound. Yun Yuxi looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her, her heart was filled with joy. She decided to take a rest here and ordered her men to set up camp here.
Everyone worked together to quickly build a temporary camp. They skillfully set up the stove and prepared to cook. Since they had to continue on their journey, they did not spend too much time setting up the tent. Everyone sat around the stove, enjoying the comfort brought by the warm fire.
Lingyi took out some noodles and braised beef from his bag and distributed them equally to everyone. Although Liulin always liked to stir up trouble, he did not raise any objections this time. After all, it was rare to be able to enjoy such a rich meal in such cold weather. Everyone was able to eat and drink enough, which was simply a kind of happiness for people walking outside.
Liu Lin had to admit that Lingyi had really thought very carefully about the food arrangement. Not only were there enough noodles and braised beef for everyone to eat, but there was also hot water in the pot that could be used to make hot tea or drink at any time. This meticulous care changed his impression of Lingyi. Perhaps Lingyi was a trustworthy person.
Yun Yuxi watched everyone eating with gusto, with a satisfied smile on her face. She knew that only by ensuring sufficient physical strength and energy could she better complete the next task. She hoped that everyone could maintain a good state and arrive at the destination smoothly.
"Everyone, eat and drink well, take a rest, and then continue on our journey. We must pass through the Black Wind Village before dark. According to the current itinerary, as long as there is no delay on the road, there is still enough time to pass through the Black Wind Village. As long as we pass through the Black Wind Village, we can reach Lingcheng in another day and a half," Yun Yuxi said with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Princess, I heard that there are many bandits in Black Wind Ridge. We should be careful," Liu Lin said seriously.
Yun Yuxi raised her eyebrows, her eyes fell on Liu Lin, and she said in a relaxed tone: "Doctor Liu, don't worry, we are all working together. Although there are many bandits in Black Wind Ridge, as long as we don't take the initiative to provoke them, I believe they won't be too embarrassed. Doctor Liu is thoughtful."
Liu Lin felt a little embarrassed when he heard Yun Yuxi's words, and a look of discomfort appeared on his face. He originally thought that Yun Yuxi would blame him for being too talkative, but he didn't expect her to be so generous and express gratitude to him.
Yun Yuxi looked at Liu Lin's reaction, smiled slightly, and thought: "Although this imperial physician can be a bit long-winded sometimes, he has a kind heart and is an interesting person."
Liu Lin realized that his worries were unnecessary and felt a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, then closed his mouth silently and said no more.
"Princess, I heard that the leader of Black Wind Ridge was once the son of a wealthy family, and became a bandit," said Zhang Guangyu, who was always taciturn.
Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that the young master of a big family who was traveling outside would kill so hard for revenge, but was eventually defeated by his enemy who was dying. He was rescued by the old boss of Black Wind Ridge who was passing by. Later, he fell in love with the old boss's daughter. After the old boss passed away, the young man naturally took over Black Wind Ridge.
After the young man named Ji Lanchen took over Black Wind Ridge, he made some changes and reforms, and eventually Black Wind Ridge became a feared place in the area.
"However, Ji Lanchen never bullies the poor people and only robs the rich to help the poor. He is indeed a character." Zhang Guangyu continued.
At this time, Yun Yuxi roughly understood the general situation, and was thinking in her heart that it would be great if she could subdue such a hero and use him for her own benefit.
