Chapter 138 No Young Girls

The shopkeeper immediately called the waiter to serve the guests. The waiter brought a tray filled with delicious dishes and wine and carefully placed it on the table. The shopkeeper stood aside with a smile on his face and said to Luo Lingfeng, "Luoxia Town is going to release river lanterns tonight. This is a traditional custom here! If you are not in a hurry, you can go and experience the lively atmosphere!"

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands to describe to them the spectacular scene of releasing river lanterns. Luo Lingfeng's heart was moved when he heard this. He was a person who liked to join in the fun, and when he heard about such an event, he naturally didn't want to miss it. So, he turned to look at the others and asked, "What do you think? Do you want to go and see it together?" Everyone nodded, indicating that they were willing to go together.

Luo Lingliu carefully pushed the plate of river shrimps in front of Xiao Jinghan, her eyes sparkling with anticipation and excitement: "Jinghan! You must try it quickly! This is the famous slippery river shrimp in Luoxia Town! The unique sauce seasoning method makes the shrimp meat extremely tender and the taste is even more delicious. It will definitely be an unforgettable delicacy!"

Xiao Jinghan smiled slightly, and he elegantly picked up the serving chopsticks beside him, gently picked up a river shrimp, and slowly put it into Luo Lingyue's bowl. Then, he slowly picked up a river shrimp and put it in his own bowl.

Luo Lingfeng witnessed this scene and became more and more satisfied with Xiao Jinghan. Although this Xiao Shizi did not have much real power, his outstanding appearance and meticulous care and consideration for Xiao Qi were enough to make Luo Lingfeng praise him! After all, Luo Lingfeng himself was also a complete face control!

The wine and food in the tavern are all local seasonal dishes, with good color, aroma and flavor, and unique flavor. In this warm and beautiful atmosphere, Xiao Jinghan personally filled Luo Lingfeng's glass and raised his glass to him.

Xiao Jinghan took a sip of the wine in the glass, then clinked glasses with Luo Lingfeng and said with a smile: "Sixth brother! I haven't fully recovered yet, but I still want to toast you today." After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing this, Luo Lingfeng laughed and drank the wine in the glass as well. Then he patted Xiao Jinghan on the shoulder and said jokingly, "It's okay! Sixth Brother also knows that the poison in your body has just been eliminated. You should drink less! Eat more vegetables! Get well soon and wait for the wedding night! Haha!"

However, this sentence aroused the dissatisfaction of Luo Lingyue. She glared at Luo Lingfeng fiercely, her eyes full of warning. Luo Lingfeng realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly smiled awkwardly, saying: "Everyone, enjoy the food, don't be restrained!" After that, he picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, trying to divert everyone's attention.

The sun was shining brightly and the breeze was not dry. After lunch, Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue strolled on the streets of Luoxia Town. Luo Lingfeng had already gone to look for a suitable inn to stay.

The two walked side by side, their feet making crisp sounds on the bluestone paved road. Not far behind them, a group of guards and secret guards followed them silently, keeping a certain distance.

As they walked, Luo Lingyue suddenly broke the silence and asked softly, "Prince Xiao! Do you notice something strange here?"

Xiao Jinghan nodded slightly and responded in a low voice: "Have you noticed something too?" His eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, as if looking for some clues.

Luo Lingyue only responded softly, and then fell silent again. Her beautiful face showed a kind of indifference and calmness, but her eyes were shining with wisdom.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinghan hurriedly comforted him, "You don't have to worry! The guards who came with me this time are all top-notch masters, plus the secret guards sent by His Majesty, their abilities are by no means comparable to ordinary swordsmen!" His words revealed his confidence in his own strength and his trust in the people around him.

Luo Lingyue bit her lips lightly and sighed, "It's really hard to imagine that this place is only a stone's throw away from the capital, and someone dares to claim to be the king here!"

Xiao Jinghan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile: "There are only three possibilities. Either they are government officials, or they are bandits, or they are colluding with the government and bandits!"

Luo Lingyue's beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement: "Prince Xiao, why don't we go together and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

Xiao Jinghan laughed softly. Looking at the woman in front of him who was full of vitality and sense of justice, he couldn't help but feel a familiar feeling in his heart. Her personality was so similar to someone in his memory. Just as his thoughts were drifting, a hint of sadness appeared in his eyes. That's it! There is no use thinking too much about those people and things that will never be possible!

The night sky in Luoxia Town is particularly beautiful, like a huge sapphire inlaid on the earth, shining brightly. The stars are dotted, as if countless pairs of eyes are watching this quiet town. In such a beautiful night, many old people put wishing river lanterns by the river.

Luo Lingyue felt something strange in her heart, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. She frowned and thought hard, trying to catch the vague doubt.

Linglong and Liuli were attracted by the colorful river lanterns. They excitedly shouted to Luo Lingyue, "Miss! These river lanterns are so unique! We want to fly river lanterns too!"

Luo Lingyue smiled and nodded, agreeing to their request: "Go ahead, but don't run too far!"

Xiao Jinghan, who was standing aside, frowned. He stared at the crowds of people releasing river lanterns along the river banks and said thoughtfully, "Miss Luo, don't you think this Luoxia Town is a little strange?"

Luo Lingyue raised her head, looked at him, and asked in confusion: "What's strange?"

Xiao Jinghan pointed at the people releasing river lanterns and said slowly, "It's such a lively scene releasing river lanterns, why aren't there any girls in their twenties?"

Luo Lingyue suddenly realized what she had felt was wrong. Yes, since they entered Luoxia Town, they had only seen old people, children, young adults and old women, but no young girls. This phenomenon was indeed a bit abnormal, which made people suspicious.

At this moment, a breeze blew past, making Luo Lingyue's hair fly. Her eyes became more profound, as if she wanted to see through this peaceful appearance and find out the truth hidden behind it...

Luo Lingyue lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of being heard by others: "Do you think that guy who has been following us today is related to this matter?" There was a hint of worry in her eyes.

Xiao Jinghan also lowered his voice and responded: "No matter what his intentions are, we must remain vigilant!" His brows were slightly frowned and his expression was serious.

At this moment, Luo Lingyue seemed to suddenly remember something, and her face became a little nervous: "Where did those two little girls go?" She looked around, trying to find them, but found nothing.
