Luring the Snake Out of Its Hole

Upon hearing Wei Hong's voice, Xing Ye was a bit puzzled. Why would he get off the carriage so soon after leaving the mountain gate? He followed the suggestion and alighted from the carriage.

"You guys go on; we'll go ahead," Wei Hong waved at Xing Ye, saying, "Wish you good luck."

Several carriages headed in another direction, and some young people popped their heads out, looking at Xing Ye standing still with confusion. A few others vigorously waved their hands in this direction.

"Great! Going to the capital is so romantic!" Ye Lu, who also got off the carriage, looked excited watching the departing carriages.

Xing Ye glanced at Li Xian, who shrugged and made a helpless gesture.

"Do you have a map?" Xing Ye asked.

The smile on Ye Lu's face froze; she didn't have a map.

"Senior Brother, I do," Li Xian took out a jade slip from his package.
