"Eh, it's actually this world?" Looking at the dream world pointed to by the red needle on the spinning wheel, Ye Xuan could not help but feel a little surprised. "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: The Human Realm!"
Ye Xuan would never forget that when he first arrived in that world, not only did he get to know Yan Chixia, Ning Caichen, and the others, but he also obtained the Lightning Palm and the Sword Kinesis Technique from Yan Chixia. Yes.
However, he had entered this dream world again this time. What changes would there be in this dream world?
If he remembered correctly, Ye Xuan remembered that the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story 2" was an extension of the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story 1". It was about Ning Caichen leaving Lanruo Temple and returning home. Due to the chaos in the world, she was accused of being a fugitive and was thrown into prison. She met Zhuge Wolong in prison and with Zhuge Wolong's help, she escaped from prison. Coincidentally, she rode the horse of the Kunlun Taoist priest, Zhiqiu Yiye, and went to a villa. Then, she coincidentally met Fu Qingfeng and the others who looked very similar to Nie Xiaoqian. After a series of coincidences, she led Fu Qingfeng and the others to rescue the Minister of Rites of the Court, Fu Tianchou, and eliminate the demons who disrupted the court.
However, here came the problem. Back then, Ye Xuan remembered that he had helped Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian. Not only did he give her a pile of gold and silver jewelry, but he also gave her a gun. He wondered what would happen after that.
"Forget it, what's the use of thinking about it? Let's go in and take a look first!" Shaking his head, Ye Xuan then said to Xueyi, "Alright, Xueyi, you can send me in. The rules remain the same, right?"
"Yes, Master!"
"Ding! Host, please note that you are about to enter "A Chinese Ghost Story 2: The Human Realm". Good luck! 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0! "
When the countdown reached 0, a white light flashed before Ye Xuan's eyes. Then, he felt his consciousness stop and his entire body fell into endless darkness.
…
When Ye Xuan woke up, he found himself in the wilderness. The sun was setting. The sky was getting dark.
Although it was not a problem for Ye Xuan to sleep in the wilderness, no one would want to sleep in the wilderness if they could sleep in a comfortable bed. Besides, this was his first time here, and he did not know where the system had thrown him this time. It was better to ask someone about it first before he could feel at ease.
Looking around and seeing that there was no one around, Ye Xuan leaped into the air to take a look. He discovered that there seemed to be a small city several dozen li away. Clouds and mist lingered under his feet as he quickly flew towards the small city.
After arriving near the small city, Ye Xuan didn't directly fly into the city. Instead, he found a place outside the city and landed. Then, he tidied up his clothes and walked toward the city gate.
This time, the system changed his attire into a scholar's robe. Ye Xuan didn't reject this attire. Instead, he felt that it was quite nice to wear.
Anping Town!
Walking to the entrance of the small city, Ye Xuan saw a few ancient characters engraved on the bluestone bricks. That was the name of the town.
At the entrance of the city, there were a few soldiers in yamen uniforms standing guard. Anyone who wanted to enter the city had to pay two copper coins.
Walking into the queue of commoners who wanted to enter the city, Ye Xuan couldn't help but frown as he looked at the commoners paying the entrance fee. It wasn't that he didn't have money, but that he only had silver on him. He didn't have any copper coins.
Looking around, he saw a scholar in a scholar's robe and a short attendant carrying a scholar on his back. Ye Xuan stepped forward and patted the scholar's shoulder.
The scholar was waiting in line to enter the city when he suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder. He turned his head and saw Ye Xuan behind him. He was originally displeased, but when he saw Ye Xuan's scholar's robe, he frowned and said, "Brother, were you the one who patted my shoulder just now?"
"Haha, it was me. My apologies, brother, it's like this. Because I only have some silver in my pouch, I don't have any copper coins. I don't know if this brother has any extra copper coins to lend me. Once we enter the city, I'll return them to you. Of course, if you don't believe me, I can first use this silver as collateral. How about it?" Ye Xuan smiled and took out a small piece of silver.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words and looking at the silver in Ye Xuan's hand, the scholar blinked and shook his head. "There's no need. It's only two copper coins. Brother can return it to me once we enter the city. Hou Xia, give this brother two copper coins. "
Hearing his young master's words, the attendant called Hou Xia took out two copper coins and handed it to Ye Xuan. "Here, young master!"
Ye Xuan was a little surprised to see that the scholar was so straightforward. If he were in the real world, his behavior might make people think he was a liar. It seemed that the culture of the ancient people was indeed incomparable to that of the modern people.
Taking the two coins, Ye Xuan cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, thank you so much, brother. I am Ye Xuan. May I know who this brother is? "
"Oh, so it's young master Ye. I am Zhu Xiaolian. Greetings, young master Ye!" Seeing Ye Xuan introduce himself, Zhu Xiaolian also cupped his hands.
"So it's young master Zhu!" Ye Xuan smiled. "Thank you for your help, young master Zhu."
"Young master Ye, don't mention it. It's nothing!"
While the two were chatting, it was time for them to enter the city. Seeing that the two were wearing scholarly robes, the soldiers did not question them. After paying the entrance fee, they entered the city smoothly.
"Young master Zhu, are you from this town?" Ye Xuan entered the city with Zhu Xiaolian. Judging by his and his attendant's attire, they did not seem to be from this town.
"No, my home is in Qing 'an. This time, I plan to take the exam in Huayang Prefecture." Zhu Xiaolian shook his head.
"So it turns out that young master Zhu is an examinee. My apologies, my apologies!" Ye Xuan cupped his hands and smiled. Then, he said, "Since young master Zhu is not from this town, and it's getting late, I'm looking for an inn to stay in. If young master Zhu doesn't mind, how about we stay together?"
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Zhu Xiaolian raised his head and looked at the sky. Then, he cupped his hands and smiled. "Since young master Ye is so kind, I will accept your invitation. Please!"
"Please!"
