Tomorrow came so fast, Yin Yin was a bit unprepared.

She said goodbye to Yin Dongjiang in a hurry, and then set off with Ling Long.

When she was leaving, Sang Ze came out of the courtyard and chased after her. “Big Sister Beauty, where are you going?”

Yin Yin looked at Sang Ze somewhat unexpectedly. “I’m going out to find someone.”

“Looking for someone?” Sang Ze’s eyes fell on Ling Long. “With him?”

Yin Yin nodded. “Yes.”

Sang Ze clasped Yin Yin’s arm tightly, as if his wife was about to run away with someone else. “I want to go with you too!”

“Heiwa, stop messing around!” Sang Mei came out from the backyard, out of breath. “You have to go to school.”

Speaking of school, Yin Yin realized that Sang Ze had already changed out of his worn-out clothes, and his face was clean. His two big and jet-black eyes were whirling around.

A young cute boy with big watery eyes!

“I don’t want to go to school. I want to be with Big Sister Beauty!” Sang Ze began to play helpless.

“You dead child, why are you so ignorant!”

Faced with Sang Mei’s accusation, Sang Ze just looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Yin Yin thought about it and said, “Let Heiwa go with us. He hasn’t been to many places before, right? I’ll take him out on a tour this time.”

Yin Yin remembered that the organizer of this ‘tour’ was Ling Long, and looked at him. “Can we?”

Ling Long thought for a while, and then nodded.

Sang Ze immediately cheered. So the two adult with a small tail, began their thrilling journey.

Behind them, a stealthy figure appeared and then suddenly disappeared again.

According to the ‘historical records’ of <<All for Prosperity>>, Ling Long’s journey to find Jia Renyi lasted for several months.

The reason is that he couldn’t find him.

At this time, Yin Yin’s advantage can be seen.

Because she have spoilers.

Although Ling Long had powerful information system, Jia Renyi was not stupid enough to just stand there and let him catch him.

So whenever he got closer to Jia Renyi, he would always slip away quickly.

Ling Long finally found Jia Renyi’s disciple – Jia Qing, after hitting a wall for several months. And only through him did he successfully meet Jia Renyi.

Now, Yin Yin, who knew the direction of the plot, would naturally not let Ling Long go around these detours.

Sitting inside a restaurant, Yin Yin put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into her bowl, and casually asked, “I don’t know where Young Master Lin is going to find Jia Renyi?”

Ling Long put down the tea cup in his hand and said, “I heard that Jia Renyi last appeared in Qingmang Mountain.”

Qingmang Mountain?

Isn’t that where Jia Qing is?

Yin Yin’s eyes lit up, and making use of the opportunity, she said, “Do you know that Jia Renyi still has a disciple?”

Ling Long took a meaningfully look at Yin Yin. “I know. But how did Miss Yin know?”

“Um,” Yin Yin’s eyebrows twitched, “there is a rumor in the Jianghu.”

Ling Long retracted his gaze and said casually, “This matter is rarely known in the Jianghu.”

Yin Yin smiled stiffly. “I just happen to know one of the people who have some Intel about this.”

Ling Long chuckled lightly and said nothing.

Sang Ze put a chopstick of shredded pork with green pepper into Yin Yin’s bowl. “Big Sister Beauty, don’t just talk, eat more dishes.”

Ling Long glanced at him lightly, and Sang Ze immediately shot back with fierce eyes.

It’s a pity that the fierce eyes with his fine and tender cute face, not only did not have the deterrent effect, but it was actually a bit funny.

Whenever Yin Yin heard Sang Ze call her big sister beauty, she always felt a little awkward, and so she said, “Heiwa, don’t call me big sister beauty in the future.”

Sang Ze blinked and grinned with his mouth missing a front tooth. “Then I will call you Master from now on!”

Yin Yin was noncommittal.

She looked at Ling Long again. “Young Master Lin, don’t call me Miss Yin. It’s like we’re a stranger to each other.”

Ling Long thought for a while, and called out: “Faintly.”

Because the pronunciation of ‘Faintly (Yinyin)’ and ‘Yin Yin’ are the same, Yin Yin did not hear the subtle difference behind it.

She nodded and asked cautiously, “Then I’ll call you……Ling Long?”

“En.” Ling Long also nodded.

Yin Yin was inexplicably happy. Feeling pleased she called, “Ling Long.”

“En?”

“Ling Long.”

“What is it?”

“Ling Long.”

“……”

Ling Long buried his head and drank tea.

Sang Ze became unhappy. “Master, you call me too!”

“Heiwa (dark baby).”

“……”

He hated his nickname so much for the first time!

Yin Yin took a few nibbles of rice, then looked at Ling Long. “Do you know what kind of person Jia Renyi is?”

Ling Long put the tomato scrambled eggs from his chopsticks into his bowl steadily. “He has excellent martial arts, and a loner. His temper is uncertain and difficult to fathom.”

“Oh,” Yin Yin bit her chopsticks. “But I heard that he loves his disciple very much.”

“Is it another rumor?”

“It is the result of my wisdom.”

“It’s still a rumor then.”

“……”

It means that rumors in the Jianghu are more reliable than my wisdom, right?

Yin Yin glumly stuffed a spare rib into her mouth. She looked up and caught sight of an unexpected person.

Fang Li.

Fang Li has long lost the brilliance he had when she first saw him. It was as if there were dark clouds cast over his head, which made him looked particularly gloomy.

But this gloom was split apart by a bright light when he saw Yin Yin.

“It’s you!” Fang Li rushed up to Yin Yin with big strides. He was so excited that he couldn’t speak clearly. “You-, you-, unexpectedly we met again! Truly, heaven still have eyes!”

Yin Yin quickly recovered her calm after the initial surprise. She looked at Fang Li and asked, “Do we know each other?”

“More than knowing!” Fang Li’s expression was a bit sullen. “We almost became husband and wife!”

Ling Long frowned almost invisibly. Yin Yin glanced at Fang Li lightly. “It was a marriage fraud.”

“Marriage fraud?” Fang Li pulled the corner of his mouth and grinned. “Who on earth was it that had cheated me? I am too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Give me my money back!”

Yin Yin amusedly said, “When did I owe you money?”

“Do you dare to admit it?! My five thousand taels!”

“You mean I owe you five thousand taels?”

“That’s right!”

Yin Yin sneered and looked at Fang Li somewhat arrogantly. “Do you know who I am?”

“I don’t care who you are! Whoever you are, you have to give me back five thousand taels!”

The eyes of all the guests in the restaurant were focused on Yin Yin and Fang Li. Yin Yin stood up and took out the token that Yin Dongjiang gave her before leaving. “I am Yin Yin, the eldest lady of Yin Jiazhuang. You said I owe you five thousand taels? Heh, you might as well go out and talk about it, see who will believe you.”

This golden words ‘Yin Jiazhuang’ made Fang Li stood rooted to the spot. Saying that Yin Jiazhuang owed him five thousand taels, even he himself wouldn’t believe it.

Yin Yin looked at the stiff Fang Li and smiled mockingly. “It’s not surprising that people like you swagger to Yin Jiazhuang every day.”

The guests made a sound of sudden realization, and they all began to point at Fang Li.

Fang Li’s face was flushed red. He had never seen anyone who could tell such a barefaced lie better than her. “You-, you are simply an evil person who’s accusing your own victim!”

“I am an evil person?” Yin Yin raised her eyebrows, a pair of beautiful eyes filled with playfulness. “In that case, let’s go to the Yamen (government office in feudal china) and let the government decide.”

“You-, you-…..” Fang Li has already lost his usual glib. He hasn’t come out since that last incident.

He has always avoided places like the Yamen, so how could he send himself to their door?

This time, he finally knew what ‘mute eats coptis’ means (coptis is a plant, it’s bitter if you eat it). He couldn’t say what he had suffered.

Seeing Fang Li’s shrivelled up appearance, the corners of Yin Yin’s mouth became higher and higher. She approached Fang Li and whispered to his ear, “This time, you should learn your lesson. Those five thousand taels were not your entire property, isn’t it? Why not do some legitimate business with the remaining money?”

Fang Li’s face was scrunched up because of anger. He looked at the person in front of him wearing an innocent smile. He gritted his teeth tightly. “This time I’ll admit it! Don’t let me see you again!”

Yin Yin hooked the corner of her mouth. “Don’t let me see you swindling people again, or else I will throw you into prison.”

Fang Li had nowhere to vent his resentment. He angrily kicked the chair in front of him and walked out of the restaurant with red eyes.

At the door, Du Qianqian wrinkled her brows as she watched Fang Li’s fading back.

Du Qianqian was following Yin Yin and Ling Long all the time. She met Fang Li on the street by chance. She deliberately led Fang Li to the restaurant where Yin Yin and the others were eating. She wanted to take this opportunity to expose Yin Yin in public, but she didn’t expect that it would easily be resolved by her.

She was not reconciled.

In the previous life, she had clearly accompanied Ling Long to find Jia Renyi, and Yin Yin was only pestering and clinging on to him; but in this life, she was the one surreptitiously following behind them.

It was not supposed to be like this!

Did heaven let her be reborn just to let her witness how Ling Long fell in love with Yin Yin?

No, Ling Long is only hers; she will never give him to Yin Yin!

She wants Yin Yin to pay for everything she had done before!

Yin Yin suddenly shivered. She looked at the sun hanging high outside, a little speechless.

Could it be that Fang Li’s grievance was too heavy?

She shook her head and sat down in her seat.

Sang Ze looked at Yin Yin with admiration. “Master, you are too powerful! That liar is almost vomiting blood because of you!”

Yin Yin spread her hands indifferently. “I’ve only used a fifth of my skill to succeed. ╮(╯_╰)╭”

Even Ling Long couldn’t help saying, “I think I can read countless people, but a person like you who can reverse the right and wrong is really rare.”

Yin Yin curled her lips up. “I’ll take it as a compliment.”

Afterwards, the dinner table became very quiet. Ling Long didn’t talk much, and Sang Ze devoted all his energy on gnawing duck necks.

Yin Yin glanced at Ling Long and cleared her throat, “Ke, that, I think we should go find Jia Qing first.”

Ling Long looked up at her, lightly uttering: “Reason?”

“Because he is a stepping stone.”

Jia Qing, the stepping stone, has been living in seclusion on Qingmang Mountain. On ordinary days, he usually stays at home and rarely goes out. He is as lonely as his master Jia Renyi and does not like to have contact with others.

But he happened to be a doctor.

Unlike Jia Renyi’s obsession with martial arts, Jia Qing devoted all his energy to medical skills.

For this, Jia Renyi has been fighting with him for many years, but still failed to make the stubborn stone nod. (pertaining to the idiom: even the rocks nod in approval during one’s preaching)

Every time he thinks about this, Jia Renyi would always sigh.

Wasted a good pair of muscles and bones ah!

To go to Qingmang Mountain, you must first pass through Shigu Town.

Shigu Town is a small town at the foot of Qingmang Mountain. Its people have simple customs, and most of its residents live on farming.

Yin Yin and Ling Long walked for nearly half a month, and finally arrived at the entrance of Shigu Town.

Looking at the big stone engraved with ‘Shigu Town’, Yin Yin was moved and about to cry.

They’ve finally arrived! If they haven’t reached here yet, her feet will definitely be crippled!

Yin Yin swears in her heart that when she returns to Yin Jiazhuang, she must persuade Yin Dongjiang to invest in road construction, and then make a road leading up to Lhasa! (capitol city of Tibet in west China)

“Boss, bring us a pot of tea!” Yin Yin couldn’t wait to sit down in a small tea shed on the side of the road, beating her feet constantly.

“Coming~” The boss took a pot of tea and poured it for them. He didn’t forget to ask, “Are you planning to go to Shigu Town?”

“Yes.” Yin Yin nodded.

The boss’s face suddenly became a little weird.

Yin Yin blinked and asked, “What’s the matter?”

The boss hesitated for a moment and persuaded, “I advise you not to go.”

“Why?”

The boss swallowed his saliva and said in a low voice, “I heard that it’s haunted there!”
