Chapter Ninety-Three: Fellow Travelers
Although the lovely girl lowered her voice again when speaking to her brother, Xia Yan could still hear what she said clearly. Since practicing the Ling Luo Heart Method, Xia Yan's five senses had become extremely sharp.
When he heard the woman say that, Xia Yan's heart also skipped a beat. He thought to himself: "As I'm alone outside, it's better not to be too showy, being too eye-catching isn't good for me."
"Heh heh, the four of you, there aren't any empty seats left in this great hall, only this table still has space. If you don't mind, why not sit down together?" Xia Yan said with a smile again to the four people.
When Xia Yan said this, the four of them and the red-clothed boss's wife suddenly realized that it wasn't because Xia Yan had overheard their conversation, but rather because Xia Yan was being hospitable, so he invited them since there were no more seats available.
The leading man first smiled at the lovely woman beside him and then turned to the other two and said, "Then let's go bother this little brother."
He said this very loudly, apparently also for Xia Yan to hear.
It can be seen that this leading man has a very good character and is polite and courteous in his actions.
Inside the bar, there were already quite a few people who had noticed the four newcomers, especially when they saw the lovely woman, their eyes revealed greedy glances.
These people often enter the forest of evil, living on the edge of a knife for years, looking at life and death much more lightly than ordinary people, never hiding their desires in their hearts. This time entering the forest of evil, no one knows if there will be a next time, so many people do things without any rules, relying solely on their preferences and strength. Just like now, that naked desire is flashing in the eyes of many people.
If it weren't for the fact that all four of them looked quite capable, someone might have already gone up to chat with that lovely girl.
But the woman, under so many fervent gazes, didn't show any embarrassment, as if she hadn't felt anything at all. Xia Yan saw this and his heart trembled slightly once again.
"Heh heh, please hurry up and order, I don't know what kind of wine you gentlemen need? The wine here is absolutely the most authentic in the entire continent." The red-clothed boss asked with a charming smile.
This red-clothed boss lady is obviously not an ordinary person. Anyone who can open a bar in Ox Snake Town must be a formidable character.
"Then just bring two tanks." The first man said with a casual wave of his hand after glancing at the infuriating boss.
Then the four men walked over to the table where Xia Yan was sitting. The leading man bowed his fist again and said a few polite words to Xia Yan.
"My name is Bai Hua, this is my sister Bai Rui, and this is Zhao Meng, he is Zhang Long."
Baihua introduced herself and several people around her to Xia Yan.
That big man who was just swaggering around is Zhang Long. As for that person named Zhao Meng, he seems taciturn and expressionless, with a dark complexion, but the blue veins on his hands are quite prominent, and he wields a broad-bladed knife, his strength is not weak.
"My name is Xia Yan!" Xia Yan nodded slightly and said with a slight bow and clasped fists.
Five people sat around the low round table, which didn't seem crowded at all, except that Zhang Longzhang took up a bit more space, while the others were not particularly burly.
"Xia Yan? You look... so young." Bai Rui's eyes rolled, and she looked at Xia Yan with a crisp laugh.
Xia Yan slightly shook his head and said: "I'm indeed quite young."
He was only fifteen years old and had just come of age.
"I mean, someone as young as you, are you also going to the Forest of Evil?" Bai Wei's eyes sparkled with curiosity.
Zhang Long, who was standing beside him, seemed to want to say something. He rolled his big eyes and looked at Xia Yan, but remembering that Bai Hua had just told him to shut up and not speak, he didn't say the words that were already on the tip of his tongue. Instead, he let out a loud snort from his nostrils and picked up his wine bowl, downing it in one gulp.
"Uh-huh, I'm going to the Forest of Sin." Xia Yan said directly.
"Xia Yan brothers, you're going to the Forest of Evil, what are you planning to do?" Bai Hua also furrowed her brow, curiously asking.
Xia Yan looks like he's really too young. Generally, cultivators or mercenaries wouldn't go to the Sinister Forest until they're at least over twenty years old.
"Hehe, I'm thinking of going to find some medicinal herbs."
The birch nodded vaguely.
Venturing into the forest of evil to search for medicinal herbs and minerals is also normal, some mercenary groups go to the forest of evil to find some medicinal herbs and minerals, or hunt down some wild beasts.
"Why are you alone? If you join a mercenary group, it would be much easier. It's very dangerous for someone like you." Bai Cui Mei's eyes sparkled with a hint of movement.
Xia Yan smiled and put the wine in his cup to his lips, then said: "Actually, I'm going to the Forest of Sin for the first time, and I don't have any experience."
"Why don't you come with us? My brother and I are also going to the Forest of Evil. If you're with us, it'll be much safer for you. Let me tell you, the Forest of Evil is not only full of ferocious beasts, but also has some murderous humans. If you get lost and accidentally venture too deep, who knows, you might even encounter people from the Dark Continent, and that would be a death sentence."
This white jade seems to have treated Xia Yan as a mischievous little brother, saying while using her white and slender fingers to gesture, big eyes blinking like stars.
Birch on one side saw his sister like this, could only helplessly shake his head.
This summer, if he followed them, it would undoubtedly be a burden. However, his sister's only shortcoming was that her sympathy was too widespread, and at this time, even if he disagreed, he couldn't help but go along with it.
When Bai Rui said this, Xia Yan didn't mind her speaking with a big sister attitude. Her heart moved, and she realized that she didn't know much about the Sin Forest. If she could enter it with Bai Hua and the others, it would save a lot of time. Moreover, on the way, she could also learn some information about the Sin Forest from these people.
"Big brother, this time we're going to the Forest of Evil again and we have a mission. If we bring outsiders along, it might not be very convenient."
Zhao Meng, who had been silent all along, spoke in a low voice at this time.
Obviously, he thinks Xia Yan is a burden, so he doesn't want Xia Yan to follow him, that's why he said that to Bai Hua.
Xia Yan furrowed his brow and looked at Bai Hua.
If others don't want to take him along, Xia Yan naturally wouldn't shamelessly stick himself to them.
"Brother..." Bai Hua hadn't even spoken yet when Bai Rui let out a loud and clear cry.
Bai Rui had a good impression of Xia Yan from the very beginning, and Xia Yan's charm was not small. Moreover, women like Bai Rui were most easily infatuated with first impressions.
"Hehe, Xia Yan brothers, if you don't mind, why not travel with us together? On the road, it's also good to have someone to take care of each other." Bai Hua was pulled by Bai Rui's clothes and smiled at Xia Yan.
Zhao Meng saw Bai Hua say this and didn't speak again. In fact, he was just discussing the matter at hand, and he would never have any dissatisfaction with Bai Hua's decision. They brought a completely inexperienced person, which would inevitably drag them down. In Zhao Meng's view, Xia Yan, even if he was a cultivator, wouldn't have too much strength, and if they encountered danger, everyone would still need to protect Xia Yan.
"Alright, haha! Xia Yan brothers, you and I will go together, I'll definitely take care of you on the way!" Zhang Long finally couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing loudly.
Xia Yan took the initiative to invite them to sit at the same table, and Zhang Long's impression of Xia Yan suddenly improved a lot. Zhang Long likes straightforward people the most.
Xia Yan smiled and said, "Then thank you all."
"Great!" Bai Rui pinched her fist, smiled complacently, and picked up a small wine cup, taking a sip of strong liquor. Her face suddenly flushed with excitement.
"Xia Yan, don't be fooled by my sister's gentle and lovely appearance now. When she encounters robbers or beasts, she can really fight." Bai Hua said with a smile as he saw Xia Yan looking at his sister drinking.
Xia Yan smiled and said: "Actually, I also figured it out."
