It was very strange, but since that day, after escaping through the tunnel, the whole journey had been very calm and peaceful, no assassins chasing them, nor enemies attacking them.

Mo CangJing did not seem to notice anything wrong with their current position, and continued to explain patiently, “Legend has it that a very long time ago, this was just a small village, where a beautiful girl lived who was very hardworking and kind. One day she went to the bank of the river to wash silk, there a water demon in the river saw her and wanted to take her home as his wife, but the girl refused, which made the water demon so angry that he sent a message saying that if she did not agree, he would flood the village. The girl did not want the villagers to be harmed, so she had not choice but to comply. However, she requested the water demon to control the river around the village in the future and not destroy the villagers’ crops, as well as provide sufficient water to the villagers in times of drought. The water demon agreed, so the village has been blessed with good conditions for crops ever since, and the villagers were able to live in peace! Because the girl liked Lotus flowers, people changed the name of the village to Han Dan City 2 and called her Han Dan Immortal! Every year a feast is held in her honor on her birthday!”
“Oh, so that’s what happened!” CunGong and CunShou said while nodding their heads as if everything had become clear, having at some point also moved to their side to listen intently.
“Uh, well, I wonder if there are any longevity noodles 3 for the Immortal’s birthday! Hehe!” ZiLi said, straightening his body as he escaped from under Mo CangJing’s body who was leaning over him.
When ZiLi mentioned this, CunShou’s stomach suddenly rumbled. “Big brother, I am hungry!” he said, looking at CunGong and blinking his eyes expectantly.

“Boss Su, I am also hungry!” CunGong said, looking at ZiLi and also blinking his eyes expectantly.
Inside the restaurant――
As guests from all over China had gathered for a meal, it was only natural that afterwards they would add a bit of gossip they had heard or seen to spice up their leisure time.
“Have you all heard?”
“Heard what?”
“About the King of Bei Ling. I heard that he’s already bedridden, and I’m afraid it won’t be long before he passes away!”

“――Big brother ZiLi―― big brother ZiLi?”
“What?” ZiLi responded quickly, as he had finally stopped eavesdropping.
