An uneventful night passed.
The next day, at dawn.
Wen Caishang practiced inner martial arts to slow down any depletion. In between his training, Li Xian kept his mind at ease. He ran to the small river at the edge of town to watch the children playing in the water.
Picking up a stone from the riverbank, he gave it a strong toss. It skipped across the water dozens of times, a truly spectacular sight.
Suddenly, he saw the fish and shrimp in the river rushing toward the river's main course.
Li Xian grabbed a big carp, golden all over, with two strands of golden whiskers by its mouth. He mused, "This fish is quite extraordinary too. Is it an advanced water scout, or is it simply fleeing in panic?"
The surge of the current was already brewing. The river water surged a bit more fiercely.
Suddenly, he noticed a man in a green robe leading a horse out of the town, followed by over ten other people.
"Elder Li." As soon as Li Xian saw someone he knew, he ran over immediately.
