It was almost dusk when they arrived at Xunyang City from Jianyang. If they went to Mount Lushan at this time, they would have to walk the mountain road at night. Elliot decided to rest in Xunyang for one night and go up the mountain early tomorrow morning.
Wu Bu Jian did not go to book an inn, while Elliot took Adrian to wander around the city.
Xunyang City is still as prosperous as ever. In teahouses and taverns, storytellers have begun to tell new stories. "The Jiangnan Heroes Besiege the Suxin Sect", "The Jiyang Sect Marries a Wife and Becomes a Brother with Difficulties", "The Flower Monk Drinks and Eats Meat Instead of Chanting for Buddha", "The Legend of the Heroes of Yandang Mountain"...
Elliot has loved listening to storytelling since he was a child. He would be unable to walk when he saw a storyteller and would have to go up to listen to a passage.
"But the Ji Yang Sect only accepts male disciples, and women are all slaves and maids. Every family hopes to have a son and not a daughter. In the entire sect, except for the wife of the leader, everyone else is a man..." The storyteller spoke seriously, holding a folding fan.
