Lu Xin went down Tianfeng Mountain overnight and destroyed the mechanism of the Niu Family’s ancestor’s tomb before going down the mountain. In the future, even if Niu Ercheng knew that there was a problem with his family’s Feng Shui, it would be difficult to solve. As for Wuyouzi’s body, Lu Xin quietly sent it back to Jiuyang Temple. Of course, disciples would go to the old Taoist funeral, so he didn’t have to worry.

After going down the mountain, Lu Xin took Lao Liu's carriage and headed straight to Hangzhou City. Tian Yu'er had been buried in the Niu family's ancestral tomb. According to the Feng Shui technique of "Fa Shandi Burial", Tian Yu'er's body will absorb the fortune of the Niu family. If there are descendants, they will definitely be prosperous. Unfortunately, according to Tian Gui's statement, the Tian family has no blood except Tian Yu'er, a junior.

Lu Xin's move was to punish the domineering Niu family, and to protect Tian Gui and all the tea farmers on Shifeng Mountain. If Niu Ercheng and Tian Yuer died at the same time, the Niu Mansion would definitely sprinkle their anger on Shifeng Mountain. But as long as Niu Ercheng is still alive, no one will know about Tian Yuer's death. Because no matter how stupid Niu Ercheng is, he will never go out and say that he killed the 14th concubine who had just married into the house.

When he returned to Shifeng Mountain, Tian Gui had woken up, but he could not go to the ground. Lu Xin personally made tea and said goodbye to him. The mountain people were very concerned about Tian Yuer's condition, and Lu Xin just said that everything was safe and told them not to worry.

"Oh, Xiao Xin, I've caused you another trouble."

Tian Gui held the teacup in both hands and wanted to sit up, but the boy quickly stood up to stop him.

"Grandpa Tian treats me as his own, and there is no need to see the outside world. Besides, the tea can have the momentum of today depends entirely on your hard work. Without you, I would not be able to escape and go to Chang'an."

"I will only grow tea and pick tea in my life, and I will focus all my thoughts on it. Sometimes, if I think about it, if I can be more useful, all the children under my knees will not die in vain."

"The crime of war is not your fault. Grandpa should take care of himself first and don't worry too much. I have already told Manager He about tea. In the future, Shifeng Mountain will only do business with Xu's house, so don't worry. It's getting late, I have to go down the mountain. You are alone, take care of yourself."

After Lu Xin finished speaking, he took a long breath and turned around and walked out the door. For him, Shifeng Mountain was a place closer to Xu's mansion. It was the second home except Xiaoxi Town. But now he no longer wanted to stay in this place. Some painful memories are the most feared of seeing things and thinking about people.

"Xiao Xin, Yu'er... is it okay in Niu Mansion?"

When the boy walked to the door, Tian Gui couldn't help but call him. When Lu Xin heard this, he stopped looking at the tea leaves in the mountains outside, and his eyes couldn't help but feel a little wet. But he didn't reply, just nodded and soon disappeared into the vast mountains.

Maybe it was because of the spring, or maybe it was because the court wanted to open a tribute, and there were many people on the official road. Men, women, young and old, walking, riding horses, and transporting goods, and Lu Xin was not familiar with the terrain outside Hangzhou City, so he could only walk along the official road. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry, and sometimes riding horses and sometimes walking, which was a different flavor.

The official road outside Hangzhou City leads directly to Xuanzhou. Then from Xuanzhou to Jingzhou, then head north to Chang'an. This is the safest route to Chang'an City by land. If you are in a hurry, it is naturally more convenient to take the canal. You can take a boat north, pass Yangzhou, enter Bianzhou, and then go west to Chang'an. However, Lu Xin does not like to take a waterway. On the one hand, it is inconvenient to take a boat, and it is easy to get stranded when encountering bad weather. On the other hand, you can watch the scenery along the way and feel the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty. It is helpful for practicing sword techniques and understanding sword skills.

Lu Xin didn't walk fast. Sometimes he rode a horse, sometimes walking, and only walked for more than a mile a day. And at night he would stay in the inn to practice swordsmanship. Lu Xin calculated that it would take at least two months to get to Chang'an City at this speed. The roads in the Tang Dynasty were not as easy to walk as modern highways. They could cross mountains and open mountains and build bridges when they encountered water. Even the official roads were very bumpy. When it rained, it was so muddy that even the horses were difficult to run.

Seven days later, Lu Xin rode a horse on the bumpy mountain road. The road was very narrow, less than two meters wide, and on the right was the bottomless cliff. The horse walked very slowly, leaning against the grass. At this time, it was about seventy or eighty miles away from Xuanzhou City, but it was approaching evening and Lu Xin's body was almost out of water.

"The map shows that there should be a small town in this area. As long as you pass the town, you can return to the official road. What's going on? After so long, I haven't found the way down the mountain?"

On the horse's back, Lu Xin took out a leather map and frowned. He had been walking among the mountains for a day and a night, not to mention horses, even people were very tired. But judging from the messy horse's hooves and footprints on the ground, the way he was walking should be right. Drinking the last sip of water from the pot, Lu Xin felt a little hungry. He was about to eat some dry food on the back of the horse, but at this time, the horse suddenly became bumpy. Lu Xin quickly pulled the reins tightly and looked down. There was a long downhill road ahead, leading to a large flat land on the foot of the mountain.

Xuanzhou City has been a military fortress since ancient times. In the Tang Dynasty, it was the location of the Governor's Office like Shanyin County. From a modern geographical perspective, Xuanzhou is located in the east of Hangzhou and Hu cities in Zhejiang Province, Huangshan Mountain in the south, Wuhu in the northwest, Nanjing and Wuxi in Jiangsu in the northeast, and is located on the northwest waistline of the entire Shanghai-Ningxia Hangzhou Triangle. Lu Xin heard from Xu Sanjin that Xuanzhou is a must-pass place for the entire Jiangnan Road to the west and plays a crucial role.

Lu Xin's horse was still very young. Before leaving Yuezhou, he had never walked on the mountain road. He ran downhill and swayed very hard. Lu Xin had to get off the horse and lead him. When he reached the flat ground on the foot of the mountain, the dark clouds in the sky just fell to the top of the mountain. The wind around him was getting heavier and heaved, blowing up the yellow dust in the sky. Lu Xin thought it would rain heavily soon, and his face looked a little ugly.

Fortunately, after the slope, the road began to become very wide and very flat. In front of me was a dense forest, with no sight at first sight, but the sound of cars and horses often came from the forest, and there were obviously many pedestrians. Lu Xin walked forward for another five minutes, and a thunder suddenly sounded deep in the dense clouds, and then it started to rain heavily.

"That's it?"

When he entered the woods, an open space appeared in the distance, and it seemed that someone had set up a tea stall somewhere. Lu Xin hurriedly led his horse over and set up a tent above the tea stall, which happened to be able to shelter from the rain here. Moreover, Lu Xin was already thirsty and hungry, so it was the top priority to stop and rest and replenish some supplies.

I don’t know if it was too late, but there were no people in a huge tea stall. There were only five people sitting in seven or eight tables, and there were only five people sitting in groups of three or three. Four men and one woman, looking at the dress, were all ordinary people who were rushing to go. Some of them saw Lu Xin carrying a sword in his hand, and several of them lowered their heads and drank tea in a muffled voice, and no one spoke.

Lu Xin didn't care, so he asked the tea stall owner to put two big bowls of water and a dish of beef sauce to eat and drink. In his ears were whistling mountain wind, and the raindrops as big as beans fell on the ground through branches and leaves, and the road quickly became muddy. Although the rain fell heavily, thunderstorms generally did not last long. Moreover, Lu Xin was not afraid of rushing to the night. At this time, listening to the sound of wind and rain and drinking herbal tea to quench thirst, it was very comfortable.

"This guest official, I have been setting up a stall on this Heihuling for more than ten years and welcoming and seeing you every day. This is the first time I have seen someone who can't afford to pay for tea. I'm a small business. You can do it well, don't make it difficult for me to do it."

"Oh, what a rough man. Who said I won't pay for tea? But this bag was lost while walking on the mountain road. I just discovered it. The book says that things in the world are unpredictable. Who has no minor disasters when going out? Besides, it's just a bowl of tea and a plate of beans. I went to Chang'an to take the exam. When I was in high school, I would be with you a hundred times."

"Hahahaha, you are a shameless poor scholar. You are obviously too short of money to pay for tea, but you insist on saying that you lost your money? I have seen a lot of rogue like you. If you can tell the truth, it would be fine. I will just treat the money for tea and water as I give you. Now, haha... I have to wait for you to ask you for the top scorer in the high school in the future? I am afraid that my life is short and I will not be able to endure that day."

In front of a table not far from Lu Xin, the tea stall owner suddenly started arguing with someone. When Lu Xin heard the news, a young scholar was scolded by the tea stall owner and blushed. The scholar was wearing clothes made of linen cloth. Although it was clean, the price was low. Anyone with discerning eyes could see his shabbyness.

When ordinary scholars go to Beijing to take the exam, they will at least buy a piece of silk-woven brocade clothes. Especially the flower-colored scented in Hangzhou City is not only comfortable and beautiful, but also not expensive, and has long been famous all over the world.

Although the scholar always said that he would definitely be in high school, he couldn't afford to buy a decent piece of clothing at this time, so the tea stall owner naturally sneered.

"Why are you so pedantic? Just a penny, do you really think Tu will break his promise? I, Tu Chengli, learned to read at the age of five, studied hard for twelve years, and read the book of sages. In Yin County, who doesn't know what I am?"

"Okay, okay, don't brag. Anyway, I'm about to close the stall. Let's go down the mountain with me and go to the government to argue. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance. My elder brother works as a servant in the county government. The one I hate most in my life is a scoundrel like you."

The tea stall owner was not in the mood to listen to the scholar's rash talk. He had a gloomy face and grabbed his arm. Although the scholar was pretty pretty, he was thin and about 1.7 meters tall, and he was yelling in pain. The tea stall owner didn't care about this and pulled the scholar down the mountain, which made the book look pale.

"Wait, I've given his tea money."

Just as the scholar was about to be dragged out of the table, Lu Xin flew out a copper coin and steadily fell into the pocket of the tea stall owner. Seeing this, the boss looked up at the boy and saw a sword wrapped in cloth on the table. He snorted coldly, and finally let go of the scholar's arm.
