Chapter 23: Chapter 21 The Day of Departure, The Future is L°ng
Translator: 549690339
With winter passing and spring setting in, the Dragon Sparrow Sect’s enrollnt test was only half a month away.
Counting on his fingers, Han Ye realized that the journey to the Dragon Sparrow Sect was quite long. Even though he didn’t know the exact distance, at least ten days to half a month of travel was unavoidable.
He guessed that preparations for departure would begin very soon.
Counting a few more days, it was almost ti to set out.
Every morning after his martial arts practice, Han Ye would go to the stream to bathe.
During this ti, plenty of village girls, who were washing clothes by the stream, would stare at him shyly. So even bravely approached him to say hello.
Han Ye responded with courteous smiles.
In Langlang Village, he was well-known. Who wouldn’t want him as a son-in-law? Every month, matchmakers would visit Liu Manor to propose marriage on soone’s behalf.
Most of the girls didn’t really expect success, but they held an attitude of giving it a shot. Even if rejected, it would sever any lingering expectations.
As expected, Han Ye rejected all of them.
He was about to leave Langlang Village soon, and it might be years before he returned.
Under such circumstances, getting married would be a hindrance to other people’s happiness, wouldn’t it?
Han Ye’s guess was correct. The very next day, Liu Lingqi gathered everyone together.
Her eyebrows were furrowed and she looked extrely serious as she declared loudly:
“Everyone should settle their own affairs, pack their things, and prepare for the journey to the Dragon Sparrow Sect. It will most likely take half a month. For safety, we will set off early, officially departing tomorrow. I hope everyone will be there on ti, and don’t be late.”
That night, Liu Manor hosted a grand banquet. After having a sumptuous al, everyone went back to pack their belongings.
Only Han Ye remained in Liu Manor, not going anywhere.
A small white fox lay on the roof, looking at Han Ye with its green eyes under the full moon. It spoke human language, saying, “Young master, you seem rather lonely.”
Han Ye sat in the courtyard, poured himself a pot of wine, raised the cup and swirled it around. He said, “I’m used to being alone in Langlang Village. My only ho there is a thatched house left behind by my mother. If I have to say, my ho is perhaps Langlang Village itself.”
“Leaving the village this ti marks the beginning of a new journey. People have aspirations, so they must venture into distance. Tonight will be the last night.”
Tomorrow, he will officially embark on the journey to the Dragon Sparrow Sect. He didn’t know exactly where it was, only that it’s closer to Yun Province. However, there was still a considerable distance from the village to there.
First, he had to leave County of Skyfire, then the province, and head for the vast Qmgyun State. No matter how you looked at it, it would take at least ten days.
It was now early spring, a ti of revival. Bandits and robbers were also active, back to ‘work’.
These mountain bandits always liked to make achievents at the beginning of the year, and one had to be careful on the road.
Han Ye went back to his room and took out two hundred taels of silver from under the mattress.
That was all he had.
Two hundred taels seed a lot and enough for an ordinary person to live comfortably for a lifeti in the county, but for him, it was far from enough.
When you’re out and about, having money makes things easier.
There were many situations where one had to spend money.
He recalled that he had an attribute nad ‘Great Wealth and High Rank’.
[Great Wealth and High Rank (Green)]: Rolling in wealth, booming business, the fortune can change with wealth, money makes money, interests compound.
As long as he had money, he just could make more money, and even change his own fate.
Han Ye also took out a large number of hidden weapons and other weapons from the cupboard, ranging from small iron pieces and daggers to flying knives and iron swords. He was well-prepared.
He had bought these weapons and hidden weapons at a low price from ironsmith Zhao Jin’s family, tailored specifically for him.
Zhao Jin was adept at forging weapons.
The fine steel sword in his hand was very sharp, emanating chilling glimrs. He also had so hemostatic herbs, body conditioning dicines, bone setting plasters, antidotes, stimulants, as well as drugs for anesthetics and poisons, specifically used for underhand tactics.
All these were recomnded by Li Chong.
Although their family were carpenters, cultivating dicinal herbs and greenwood plants were also their inherited crafts. They also had branches of the Hundred Herbs Hall spread across several counties, making them stealthy rich n.
After arranging these bottles and cans, Han Ye took a special soft armor off the bedroom wall and put it on. He patted his chest, feeling a great sense of security.
He thought in detail, still missing sothing.
Then he went to the kang in the back kitchen, grabbed a handful of plant ash, wrapped it up with cloth, and put it in his travel bag.
This thing could be used for sneak attacks, catching people off guard, very useful, and difficult for most people to defend against.
Han Ye felt that he was certainly not a cautious person, but he had to do so.
Who hasn’t read a novel from my last life?
I don’t know which old lamp led a bad custom, all kinds of survival, all kinds of dark intentions, led to everyone becoming like this, the atmosphere of the cultivation world was corrupted.
If he ets sly fellows and gets ambushed, and everyone else is prepared while he is not, wouldn’t he be at a disadvantage?
Such a ss, such a complicated situation.
Han Ye sighed lightly, thinking, he had already prepared everything.
The next day.
Everyone ca to the entrance of the village. Many villagers ca to say goodbye, with won’s cries and farewell sounds from ti to ti.
“Brother… you must be careful outside, I heard that people outside are not good, unlike the ones in our village…”
‘My son, when you get out there, make sure you eat well, don’t neglect yourself, rember to drink water, your lips are all chapped.”
“Brother, you are too honest, too kind, do not easily believe other people’s words, mom and dad are waiting for you to co ho.”
A strong horse is ready, Han Ye sat on the horse, wearing a bamboo-colored robe, traveling bag hung on the horse. Looking at the guards saying farewell to their family, their faces were reluctant to part.
“Young Master, the feelings of your human race are really touching. My mother said that you humans are all cunning and deceitful, only our demon race understands these things.”
The emotive voice of Tushan Qingli rang in his ears.
Han Ye, pulling the reins, said to himself, “The sheep kneels to feed, the crow feeds back, the distinction between human and demon, sotis who can really differentiate.”
Seeing that the ti was almost up, Liu Lingqi, in her neat martial robe, carrying a sword at the front of the team, looked at the sun in the sky and shouted loudly:
“Alright, let’s go!”
At her command, the massive Liu Family caravan began to run on the official road.
Wang Da Niu looked sadly towards the crowd and shouted with tears in his eyes:
“Hongliu, even without , you must be happy!”
“Hongliu!”
The always-strong Wang Da Niu was actually teary-eyed at this mont.
“Let’s go, Brother Da Niu.”
Li Chong and Zhao Jin all advised.
“Dragon Sparrow Sect, here I co!”
“Giddy up!”
Gao Qichang, clad in a straw hat and raincoat, radiating vitality, wearing a long
sword on his back while cracking his horsewhip, pursued ahead.
Seeing this, Han Ye also swung the reins, running forward, secretly saying in his heart.
Goodbye, Langlang Village.
We’ll et another day.
He also wanted to experience what the legendary Nine Heavens and Ten Earths looked like, and what exactly the Dragon Sparrow Sect in Qingyun State was like.
