The Little Husband Who Became the Ghost-Faced King

76

When the two got off the carriage, they found that it was very lively outside, with people coming and going. There were vendors selling food, jugglers performing their skills, and all kinds of small gadgets that were rarely seen on weekdays.

Listening to the hawking around him and feeling the lively atmosphere around him, Xiji's mood was not as bad as before. Soon, Xiji was attracted by the excitement around him, and looked at the children clamoring for candy figures, and a little smile appeared on his face.

Luyin had been watching Xiji from the side. Seeing that he was happy, she felt relieved.

Do you have anything you want to eat? Let's buy some and try them. Xiji looked at the various snacks around him, turned around and looked at Luyin and asked.

Luyin looked young, about 15 or 16 years old. In his era, children of this age were still in junior high school and were loved by their parents. But here, they had to work as servants for others in order to have a meal. Since she followed him, Xiji didn't mind treating her as his little sister and pampering her a little more.

When Lu Yin heard him say this, she was stunned for a moment, then she smiled sweetly and responded: Thank you, sir, I know.

But even though she agreed to everything, Luyin didn't ask for anything else during the rest of the trip. Instead, Xiji couldn't stand it, so whenever he saw something delicious, he would buy one for himself and one for Luyin as well.

Under the protection of the guards, the master and servant strolled around the temple fair for an entire afternoon, visiting the entire fair from beginning to end, until they reached the end of the road.

The end of the temple fair was near the city gate. There were many people gathered under the city wall, and they all looked quite excited.

Seeing them like this, Xiji was a little curious. He took a bite of the cake in his hand and wanted to go forward to see what was going on.

Just when Xiji took a few steps forward to see what was going on, he was suddenly pulled from behind. When he turned around, he saw that the person pulling him was Lu Yin.

Xiji looked at Luyin with a serious face, blinked, and showed some confusion.

Luyin looked at Xiji and said seriously: Sir, there are too many people there, it's not safe, you'd better not go there.

Xiji looked at Luyin with a serious face, then looked at the excited people in front of him, thought for a moment, and decided to follow Luyin's advice.

Seeing that Xiji gave up the idea of joining in the fun, Luyin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Master Xi was a man who listened to advice.

Just when they were about to leave with the guards, they suddenly heard a commotion behind them, and someone shouted, "Look, they are coming!"

It really is the Night King, I thought he wouldn't come.

Of course the Night King will come. How could he not come for such an important matter?

Hearing someone calling the Night King, Xiji reflexively looked in the direction they were shouting, only to see a very familiar-looking man standing on the city wall.

Xiji looked at the Night King and felt that he was full of indifference. The soldier beside him was speaking to him with an embarrassed look on his face. The Night King only responded from time to time, but his expression did not change much.

Even though he was so far away from them, Xiji could still feel the oppression of the Night King on that person. Looking at the Night King like this, Xiji vaguely thought of the first time he met him. The Night King at this moment seemed to be no different from him at that time, cold and indifferent without a trace of humanity.
