I didn't want to compete with you for the heroine

"I said you should stop staring at the compass, it's not as useful as my drawings." Seeing Xu Yao staring at the compass, Zhou Tianli couldn't help showing some dissatisfaction.

"Just to make sure." The direction of the pointer on the compass has not changed, and it is getting closer and closer to the position shown on the map.

Obviously nothing happened along the way, but why this panic kept clamoring in my heart...

Zhou Tianli stared at the position marked with the red circle to remind the people around him, "We have reached the boundary point."

Xu Yao stopped and observed the surrounding terrain while Zhou Tianli continued to preach, "When you leave the realm, you will enter the northern region."

After Zhou Tianli looked at the map repeatedly to confirm that there was no problem, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him the next moment he raised his eyes, it was a child! !

The child was carrying a basket on his back and holding a sickle in his hand, also staring at Zhou Tianli with wide eyes, and the two of them just looked at each other motionlessly.

Stalemate for a few seconds...

The child couldn't help but turn around and ran, Zhou Tianli stepped forward a few steps, leading the child by the collar with one hand and restraining his hand holding the sickle with the other, "I'm not a ghost, what are you hiding from?"

Seeing the struggle, the child could only stare ferociously.

"Little devil, where did you come from?"

The child ignored Zhou Tianli's question, but deliberately turned his head to the side.

"Hey!! You kid!!"

The child's eyes lightly caught Xun's red hair and Shen Yusheng's white pupils, and his eyes widened as if he had discovered a new land, "You... are you invited actors?"

What? ? ?Apparently the child had misidentified their identities, Xu Yao gave Zhou Tianli a look and said, "That's right, do you know where the Hechuan Mansion is?"

"Of course I know, I'm a resident there!" cried the child.

It's really effortless!

Xu Yao chuckled and pointed in a direction casually, "We don't have any malicious intentions, just want to ask for directions. Is this the direction?"

Seeing that Xu Yao's gentle tone gradually calmed down, and seeing that Xu Yao's face was too shy to look at others, the child struggled a few more times to signal Zhou Tianli to let go.

Zhou Tianli let go of his hands, the child straightened his clothes, glanced at him angrily, and stuck out his tongue at Zhou Tianli.

"If you go in that direction, it's too far to go around and you'll have to walk for at least two hours!" said the child.

"Then can you take us there?" Xu Yao asked.

The child looked at Xu Yao with a vague look, and found that the other party was also looking at him, then he dodged and walked to the front of the crowd, and said as he walked, "Just follow me."

'Puff——' Zhou Tianli suddenly laughed, and the meaningless laughter made Xu Yao a little nervous.

"I never thought that your 'beauty trick' would work on a brat." Zhou Tianli suddenly whispered in Xu Yao's ear.

Zhou Tianli looked at Xu Yao's surprised gaze with satisfaction, then waved his hands and passed by without waiting for anyone to speak, leaving Xu Yao with a confused face.

Sure enough, under the leadership of this child, the speed was much faster than their own. After walking down the foot of the mountain, they saw a bustling street, which was very different from the previous Yilong Town.

As expected of a prosperous place in the north, the Hechuan family is behind such a town.Xu Yao didn't know whether it was appropriate to do so, and broke into their territory without knowing the details of the other party.

It's like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.

"Are you going to Hechuan Mansion? I advise you to give up earlier." The child suddenly turned his head and said to the crowd.

"Oh? How do you say that?" Zhou Tianli asked with a smile.

The child was silent for a moment and then said, "The head of Hechuan never receives anyone, let alone you outsiders, even us native residents have never seen an adult."

"You call him an adult?" Shen Yusheng frowned when he heard this address.

The child didn't think there was anything wrong and nodded in agreement.

It seems that the head of the Hechuan family has a special habit of being served by others.

"I have to go home, or my father will blame me." The child said goodbye to several people and left.

Xu Yao and the others could have been less conspicuous in the crowd after changing into ordinary clothes, but because of their outstanding looks, everyone looked at them in whispers.

This feeling is really uncomfortable...

Xu Yao sighed helplessly and happened to pass by a small workshop with the words 'Weapon Workshop' on it, which caught Xu Yao's attention.

Zhou Tianli suddenly grabbed Xu Yao's shoulder with one hand, and was about to drag her in, "Didn't you give the sword to little brother Shen? Since they're all here, let's go in and see if there is someone you like."

"I, I'm interested in these..." Xu Yao just wanted to say that he was not interested in these things, but Zhou Tianli involuntarily dragged her to the door, not forgetting to turn her head to signal the other two to follow.

Gently pushed open the store door, but the store was unexpectedly deserted.But looking at the various things on the shelves, they are neat and tidy, and it is easy to find what you need.

Xu Yao picked up a bow, but it was too heavy to carry.Then I picked up a rifle, this...is it only used on the battlefield?After putting it down, he saw an exquisitely crafted shield, um... He probably wouldn't use this kind of thing.

"Is there anything Xiaosheng wants?" Xu Yao couldn't make up her mind and asked Shen Yusheng, only to find that the other party was just standing there, clearly not intending to choose.

Shen Yusheng shook his head, "I already have what I want the most."

Xu Yao glanced at the sharp sword hanging on Shen Yusheng's waist. Since she gave this sword to him, she has never seen a time when she didn't carry it.

Unexpectedly, this gift was not bad, Xu Yao thought to herself.

Zhou Tianli was really interested, he was carefully picking out a jade pendant, and for some reason he found a jade pendant!The workmanship and carving of this jade are particularly exquisite. The dark green color is translucent into a half-moon shape.

"This is good! This is good!" Zhou Tianli quickly applauded, walked in front of Xun, gestured a few times at Xun's neck, and then laughed.

"Yes, it suits you very well! This one is for you."

"Send me?" Xun asked in surprise.

"One thing for one thing, don't you give it to me too." Zhou Tianli said and pointed to the amulet hanging on the sword.

Xun lowered his head and didn't speak, but couldn't restrain a slight smile on his face.

"Is the boss here?? He's here for business!" Zhou Tianli shouted as he walked inside.

"Come here!!" Just listen to an elderly man who walked out of the house and walked forward with a smile.

"Dear guest officers, have you found anything you like when you visit the shop?"

"Boss, this. Make an offer." Zhou Tianli handed the jade pendant to the boss.

The boss glanced at it, showing embarrassment, "I'm sorry, guest officer, someone has already booked this."

"What?" Zhou Tianli was shocked.

"Boss, this is wrong. Since it is already a pre-ordered item, why is it still placed on the shelf for sale? How about this, how much does that person pay? I will pay double for it!"

Xu Yao looked at Zhou Tianli in a little surprise, when did this person make such a big move?

"Guest officer, this is not appropriate..." The boss looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say seeing Zhou Tianli like this.

"Boss, is my order ready?" At this moment, a particularly pleasant male voice came from outside the door.

Everyone looked back, and a man with an extraordinary temperament walked into the shop.This person was handsome, but under a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows was a pair of slender peach blossom eyes, long black hair reaching his buttocks, and his heroic facial features were extremely masculine.

Xu Yao only took one look, and envied this person's appearance.Unlike Yu Yunhan, he was a bit too feminine in comparison.

Seeing Xu Yao staring straight at the man who came in, Shen Yusheng's expression collapsed instantly, and he didn't make a sound.

The man walked into the room gracefully and happened to see the jade pendant in Zhou Tianli's hand, so he stepped forward to take it, "This is what I wanted last time."

"What are you doing?! This is the thing I saw first!" Zhou Tianli was naturally unwilling to give it to the other party, and he had already promised the stinky fox that he would give it to him.

How can you break your promise? !

"Boss, what is this?" The man froze for a moment and asked in confusion.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this guest officer wants to buy it no matter what, I really have no choice."

Xu Yao couldn't bear to see such a respectful look of an old man, so she touched Zhou Tianli with her arm and said lightly, "Otherwise forget it, just buy another one."

"I promised the stinky fox to buy this for him, you can't be empty-handed!" Zhou Tianli also replied in a low voice.

Xu Yao's face was full of black lines, and she still wanted to save face at this time.

"Young master, I'm really sorry. My friend likes this jade pendant very much. We can discuss the price. Can you sell it to us?" Xu Yao asked reluctantly, even though he knew that it would probably not succeed.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly laughed after seeing Xu Yao, looking at him carefully from top to bottom made Xu Yao feel a little uncomfortable.

"Did we meet somewhere?" The man said something unrelated.

Um?What's the deal with this so-so classic idol drama strike-up line?

"You, you admit it wrong." Xu Yao really didn't know how to answer this sentence, it was very embarrassing in itself.

And can you stare at me while smiling? !

Strange! ! !

"Well, we can pay more." Xu Yao spoke again, trying to return to the topic just now.

"The young master also wants this? We hit it off pretty well."

ah? ?Why does this person keep answering irrelevant questions and keep saying ambiguous words?

"Since the young master wants it, then I'll give it to you." The man suddenly stepped forward, and his magnetic voice came from his lips close to Xu Yao's ear.

Seeing this scene, Shen Yusheng clenched the saber in his hand even more. Zhou Tianli, who was about to step forward and stand beside him, was one step faster than him.

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing? Just talk when you have something to say, what are you doing so close?!"

The man left Xu Yao's side, looked at the surprised expression on the other side, and said with a chuckle, "Boss, I don't want this jade pendant and I will give it to this young master. As for the reward, there is no need to return it to me. I will pay the order."

He was obviously talking to the boss, but his eyes kept staring at Xu Yao.

It was the first time in Xu Yao's life to be stared at by a man like this.
