In the end, the old man did not dare to ask Yu Changping for that little money.

He can be regarded as a scholar to some extent. When Yu Changping said "sequence, sequence", he knew in his heart that the young boy in front of him had already stood at a height that he would never be able to look up to in his life.

.

Under the respectful farewell of the old man, Yu Changping left the villa. The three little Taoist nuns who were waiting for him outside the door saw him coming out, but they didn't ask any questions.

"Let's go."

The four of them did not delay any longer this time. After buying some dry food on the way and putting it in the storage ring, they quickly left the city.

But after leaving the city, Yu Changping and the others found that they encountered an extremely embarrassing problem - they didn't know the road.

Therefore, Yu Changping could only find a caravan, spent some money again, followed the other party on the road, entered the boundless desert, and embarked on the road back to Qin.

…

…

The sky is filled with yellow sand, and this desert is very large. Even if Yu Changping and others use their magical powers to cross the rainbow, it will probably take less than half a month.

Now, they were traveling with the caravan, and their speed had naturally slowed down a lot. It was thought that it would take them nearly a month to return to Stone Barrier City.

The convoy was very long, with more than a dozen carriages being pulled by camels. They were filled with various goods for sale. Many of the items were specialties of the Wei State, and some of them were deeply loved by the princes, nobles or wealthy businessmen of the Qin State.

.

The two carriages at the front of the motorcade were occupied by the leaders of the caravan and several practitioners of the Qi Gathering Realm. There were also some hired servants following behind.

Among them were some people like Yu Changping and others who were traveling with them, following in the convoy.

As for Yu Changping and the four of them, because they were given a lot of money, they naturally received "preferential treatment" and were placed in the last carriage of the motorcade.

…

"Xiao Man!"

In the penultimate carriage, the old man called seriously to the little girl who stuck her head out.

When the girl heard her grandfather's voice, she pulled her head back and stuck out her tongue. Seeing this, the old man shook his head helplessly.

"How many times has Grandpa told you not to look at outsiders randomly? If you meet some unreasonable people and anger them, you will be in trouble!"

The old man, who had been used to being cautious all his life, spoke up. Although he spoke harshly, in fact, he had nothing to do with his granddaughter. She was reluctant to hit or scold her.

The girl named Xiaoman heard her grandfather's words and disagreed in her heart, but she still nodded perfunctorily, rolled her eyes, and said: "Grandpa, I think those brothers and sisters behind you seem to be different from ordinary people.

, tell me, are they the legendary gods?"

When the old man heard this, he smiled happily and said, "You girl, everyone thinks you are a fairy. You really think that gods are like sesame seeds in a bag. You grab a lot of them."

The little girl thought for a while and sighed with some disappointment, but when the figures of Yu Changping and the four people appeared in her mind, she still had a feeling in her heart that those four people must be gods.

It is not easy for ordinary people to walk in this dusty place for half a day. But for these people who travel between the two countries all year round, it is already a common thing.

Yu Changping and the four of them sat in the carriage, closing their eyes and meditating.

…

The shadows on the ground stretched longer and longer, until night fell, the shadows completely merged into the darkness, and the long motorcade stopped.

The night is clear and starry.

The desert at night is slightly quieter than during the day. Without the violent wind and sandstorm, it seems as if the entire desert is asleep.

In the second carriage, a man stepped out of the carriage. The ring on his hand flashed. He took out piles of firewood that had been prepared and distributed them to everyone behind him by several servants.

The sound of striking flints came one after another, and after a while there were many fires.

Everyone sat around the fire and took out food to fill their stomachs.

Those at the front had an unusual status. They set up the meat and roasted it on the fire. The meat was fragrant, and they even had fine wine to accompany the food.

Yu Changping and the other four are not interested in these foods, and besides, they don't need to eat these mundane things.

I was planning to continue practicing with my eyes closed, but there was a knock on the car window door.

Yu Changping opened his eyes and knew it was the little girl in the carriage in front. He opened the window and looked at her doubtfully.

"Brothers and sisters, do you want to come and have something to eat together?" Xiaoman looked into Yu Changping's eyes. For some reason, his heart beat faster and he was a little nervous when he spoke.

When Yu Changping heard this, his heart moved. He looked forward and found the old man sitting alone by a small fire. Seeing Yu Changping looking over there, he smiled and waved.

Yu Changping thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

Although there is no need to eat, sometimes people are too unique, which is not a good thing.

He and the other three people talked about their thoughts. The three young Taoist nuns also felt that this was indeed the truth, so they also ended their practice together and got off the carriage.

Under the leadership of the little girl, we came to the old man's side.

Yu Changping raised his hand to salute and said: "Thank you very much, old man. When I get to Qin, I will be very grateful to you."

The old man has been a businessman for so many years and has met countless people. Although he is a mortal, his eyesight is not bad at seeing people.

He noticed that there was an air of elegance in Yu Changping's behavior, and he knew that the other party was a scholar. His words were confident but not arrogant, and the gratitude in that sentence was also very sincere.

This made the old man feel solemn. He had never seen scholars before, but those people were either arrogant and had their tails in the air, or they were submissive and looked extremely old-fashioned.

How can there be such a young man in front of him, who has extraordinary bearing but no arrogance. The old man knew that the other man was definitely not an ordinary young man, but he did not deliberately do anything overly polite because of this.

"You're welcome, little brother, come and sit down."

The old man didn't refuse, nor did he say anything deliberately inappropriate. He smiled, stretched out his hand and invited a few people to sit next to him.

A glint flashed in Yu Changping's eyes, but he didn't say anything and sat down next to the old man. He didn't cast any spells and just sat casually on the sand.

The little Taoist nun and Li Lingshan were in a bit of trouble, but fortunately Lin Yun took out two pieces of cloth for them, which solved this little embarrassment.

Xiaoman wanted to sit next to Yu Changping, but the old man glared at him, pursed his lips, and sat on the other side of the old man with a look of reluctance.

"Come on, little brother, try it. This is a craft passed down from the old man's family."

When everyone sat down, the old man took off a big clod of earth that was roasting on the fire.

Yu Changping was curious about what was inside, and saw the old man knocking open the clods of soil outside. A smell of fragrance came out, and there was actually a chicken inside.

"Old sir, this is..."

Yu Changping felt interesting and asked.

When the old man saw Yu Changping asking him questions, he felt a little more relaxed.

"This is called 'Beggar's Chicken', but it is a special feature of our country of Wei. I bet you have never tasted it." The old man said with a smile.

When Xiaoman heard what his grandfather said, he nodded, his little nose moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Brother, let me tell you, my grandfather's roasted 'Beggar's Chicken' is delicious."

"Really? Then I'm in a good mood today." Yu Changping said with a smile.

When Xiaoman saw Yu Changping smiling at him, he couldn't help but feel a little shy, but he still felt more excited and asked: "Brother, are you a god?"

"Xiao Man!"

When the old man heard this, he was startled and gave a light drink.

"It doesn't matter." Yu Changping shook his head with a smile, looked at Xiaoman, and said, "What's your name? Why do you want to see the gods so much?"

"Little brother, my granddaughter is a little ignorant and likes to say irrelevant things. Don't take it seriously." The old man quickly spoke and divided the beggar's chicken in his hand into six parts. Among them, he only kept one chicken wing for the little one.

I got a chicken leg quite a bit.

"You're not talking nonsense!" Xiaoman said quickly, and Yu Changping also laughed and said it was okay.

Seeing that he couldn't stop him, and since Yu Changping didn't seem to be a bad guy, the old man stopped trying to stop him, walked aside and started to separate the beggar's chickens.

"My name is Xu Xiaolian. My brothers and sisters can just call me Xiaoman. As for why I want to meet the gods, of course it's because they are powerful..."

Xiao Man couldn't help but speak, and he said a lot of things, all of which he read from those books about myths and legends.

Yu Changping listened to Xiaoman's words with a smile on his face. It wasn't until she finished speaking that Yu Changping said: "Xiaoman, there are many things in this world, not just what you hear or see must be true, gods,

In fact, they are not that special. Many times, their lives are actually not as good as ordinary people."

Xiaoman listened to Yu Changping's words, his eyes moved, and he said happily: "Brother, you are really a god! Otherwise, how would you know that their lives are not as good as ordinary people."

When Li Lingshan heard this, she smiled and said: "Xiaoman, I didn't expect you to be quite smart. Your elder brother is not only a god, but also a very powerful young master."

"Little Master? I heard that those who can be Masters are those who have read a lot of books. So, big brother, do you know a lot of truth?" Xiaoman asked.

When Yu Changping heard this, he shook his head. Just as he was about to say a few words, the old man shouted.

Lin Yun stood up and helped the old man bring a bowl. There was divided chicken in it. It was so fragrant that it made people's stomachs rumble and their index fingers twitch.

"Let's eat first, Xiaoman, as grandpa always taught you, don't be so immature."

"Uncle Xu, it's nothing,"

"Who doesn't have a hard time when they are away from home?" The old man almost treated Yu Changping and others as ordinary people. As he said this, he distributed the bowls to several people.

Yu Changping glanced at it and saw that the amount of meat in the old man's bowl was the smallest among the six. He couldn't help but feel moved. He took out a jade bottle and said: "Old man, I have a unique seasoning here. If you put it in

, there will be unexpected effects.”

When the old man saw that the jade bottle handed over by Yu Changping was shining cyan under the light of the fire, and it looked like it was not ordinary, he couldn't help but hesitate.
