When Murong Feng saw how much Zhang Lin Xuan was looking down on him, he opened up the fan and placed it in front of his chest, fanning his face as he said, "I don't want to be bothered by feelings. With my looks and my talent, if I wanted to find a pretty girl, I could drink a cup of tea!"

Zhang Lin Xuan saw that Murong Feng wasn't even blushing when he told the lie, and said, "I believe that with your face, you should be able to do it!"

Murong Feng saw that Zhang Lin Xuan didn't believe in his own abilities and tried to defend himself. "I can tell you this: the first thing you need to do after a girl is to have thick skin. If people were as bashful as you are, girls would have long been caught by someone as thick-skinned as me!"

Zhang Linxuan couldn't win against Murong Feng at the moment. He stubbornly said, "Keep boasting!"

When Murong Feng saw that he couldn't convince Zhang Lin Xuan, he pointed at Xu Dai and said to Zhang Lin Xuan, "If you don't believe me, you can ask the escort and see if I'm right or not!"

Xu Que saw that the two of them were going to give their opinions, so he said: "I'm a rough guy. If you want to know how I deal with the girls at the Spring Festival, I have a lot of experience, but if you want to ask me about my experience chasing the girls, I really don't have it!" After saying that, he threw his head back and laughed out loud.

The five of them walked on and on, the bustling crowd coming from all over the place. When they came to a vaudeville stand, they saw a short fat man in a hat performing a naked ring of fire. The little man came and went freely in the blazing circle of fire, attracting applause from the onlookers.

Huang'er was curious and asked, "This dwarf is really powerful. Could he have practiced some kind of magical technique? You guys have seen him walk around in the circle of fire for a long time, but his skin is still unharmed!"

Mu Rong Xuan saw through the flaw and said, "Let him take off his hat, do you think he will agree?!"

Xu Que gave Murong a big thumbs up and said, "Brother Murong is so amazing. He caught on to the key point at a glance!"

Zhang Lin Xuan suddenly understood what they meant. He anxiously looked at the two of them to confirm his answer and asked, "Are you saying that he put a layer of something on the surface of his own body?!"

Murong Feng asked back, "Otherwise, do you really think he knows any mystical techniques?!"

Huang'er saw the three of them conversing among themselves and didn't take her to heart. She wanted to pull Liu Qing to another place and take a stroll.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure walking past him outside the crowd. However, he couldn't recall it in a short period of time, so he hit his disappointing head.

Seeing Huang'er's actions, Liu Qing asked: "Miss, why did you hit your own head? Do you have a headache?! "

Huang'er said, "I feel so familiar with the figure of this person who just passed by. I always feel like I've seen him somewhere before!" However, this useless brain of mine will not be able to remember this moment.

Liu Qing looked around and asked: "Which one?! Show me, maybe I've seen it too?! "

Huang'er pointed at the figure of an old man who was about to turn into an alley.

Liu Qing looked at the old man's figure and said loudly: "Isn't that the owner who sent the escort team to Western Xia yesterday?!"

After Liu Qing said this, Huang'er suddenly remembered. She pulled on Zhang Lin Xuan's sleeve and pointed at the old man as she shouted, "That Western Xia person!"

Zhang Linxuan was currently talking with Murong Feng and Xu Yingtou about how he had been burned when he was young and had learned alchemy from the Iron Sword Taoist.

However, when Huang'er called out to him like this, he looked in his direction and saw an old man with green clothes walking into an alley.

Xu Ying looked and was sure it was the old man who came to carry the dart yesterday. Everyone immediately pushed their way through the crowd and ran towards the alleyway.

When everyone rushed into the alleyway, there was nothing but pitch black darkness. Zhang Lin Xuan had told Xu Yingtou to protect the two ladies while he and Murong Feng chased after them.

The two of them ran to the next intersection in the alleyway, but still did not see the old man. Murong Feng pointed at the rooftop. Zhang Lin Xuan knew what Murong Feng meant. He thought to himself: "This old fellow is going up to the rooftop again!"

Sure enough, Murong Feng leaped up onto the rooftop, bent over, and rushed away.

Zhang Lin Xuan saw that Murong Feng had already started his search, and he began to search through the alleyway.

At this moment, the alleyway was exceptionally quiet. Compared to the hubbub on the streets outside, the atmosphere inside was so different that it felt like it had fallen into a tranquil dream of its own.

Zhang Lin Xuan held his breath as he tensed up his nerves, trying his best to clear his mind of all distracting thoughts. He looked around cautiously, and even after walking past several alleys, he still did not see the figure of the Western Xia old man. Aside from the occasional slight sound of Murong Fengyi flying in the wind above him, the surroundings, other than the dense cluster of houses, were still deathly silent.

It was not yet late at night, and what was strange was that there was no one in this alley. The most important thing was that there was not even a dog barking! Zhang Linxuan suddenly discovered this strange phenomenon.

Thus, he lightly leapt onto the wall of a house. He discovered that the door and windows of this house were all tightly shut, and there were no lights in sight.

The more Zhang Linxuan saw, the more bizarre he felt. His true essence sank, and he agilely landed in front of the door. He even turned his head to listen for any signs of movement in the room. He nudged the door, and it creaked open. The house was empty. Zhang Lin Xuan then proceeded to search through the other rooms. What was strange was that no one was at home in this house.

Could it be that all of them went to the night market to play? Zhang Lin Xuan scratched his head as he thought to himself. Then he planned to go back to the kitchen.

As soon as Zhang Linxuan walked into the kitchen, the fragrance of food entered his nose. Zhang Lin Xuan hastily lit the fire and took a look. There were some ingredients for cooking on the stove, and the oil in the wok had yet to solidify. Zhang Lin Xuan tentatively touched the wok's inner wall and found that it was still warm.

Zhang Lin Xuan thought to himself: This family left home not long ago!

Thus, he used the firelight to search the surroundings of the house for a long time, but he didn't find any traces of fighting. It didn't seem like he was suddenly robbed.

Zhang Lin Xuan was thinking about the problem in front of him. Suddenly, a light noise came from the house. Zhang Lin Xuan thought that Murong Feng was in the vicinity, so he stood up to reunite with him.

He immediately extinguished the fire and stepped out of the door. He looked around to see where Murong Feng was. As he concentrated on his surroundings, a refreshing fragrance of flowers wafted into his nose.

This sudden fragrance of flowers caused his heart to tremble. At this moment, Zhang Lin Xuan had already closed his eyes and was completely immersed in it.
