"If you want something delicious, quickly return the Jade Pendant to me, and we can go our separate ways. No one will bother you!" Huangfu Jingchen said with a stern face.
Xia Wenjin glanced around and said, "Forget just eating steamed buns, don't you expect us to just sleep on the ground? What if we fall asleep and some bugs, snakes, or mice come out and bite us? Our lives could end right here."
Huangfu Jingchen frowned; he hadn't considered this issue.
Normally, he listened to his master talking about Jianghu experiences, sometimes missing a place to stay and having to sleep outdoors, continuing the journey the next day!
The master spoke with great pride, very casually, obviously indicating that sleeping outdoors was no big deal. At least out in the open, with no inns or villages nearby, Xia Wenjin couldn't run off to indulge herself.
