Four Masters' Tour: Exploring the Charm of Southern China ( Part 1 )

The Next Day, Mu Linfeng Wakes Up to Find Chen Yuanyuan Sleeping Beside Him.

The sun was already high up in the sky when Mu Linfeng woke up the next day, and he saw Chen Yuanyuan still sound asleep next to him. With a satisfied and contented look on her face, Mu Linfeng knew that he had made Chen Yuanyuan extremely happy the night before, and he felt a sense of pride in himself.

Every time Mu Linfeng had sex with a woman, he liked to see the expression on her face the next day when she was sleeping next to him. It was the most natural expression, and whether he had satisfied her during the night would be written all over her face.

Mu Linfeng got up from bed, put on his clothes, and washed up quickly. He went to the main hall and saw that Liu Baifang and the four masters were already waiting for him. When Mu Linfeng approached, they immediately walked over and greeted him with cupped hands, "Master."

Mu Linfeng smiled slightly and nodded, "You four heroes don't have to be so polite in the future. We're all brothers here."

The four masters immediately looked embarrassed and said, "We wouldn't dare."

Mu Linfeng sighed helplessly, "Why do people nowadays like to act like slaves?"

Of course, Mu Linfeng couldn't say this out loud, so he just let it go and said to the four of them, "We'll leave for Nanjing immediately. What do you four think?"

The four masters immediately replied with cupped hands, "We'll obey your orders, Master."

Mu Linfeng immediately gathered all the people left on the mountain and said, "From now on, if there's anything, you should report to these four people. Their orders are my orders."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Mu Linfeng had the carriage that Wu Xing and the others had left behind brought outside. He said to everyone, "Because of some changes, we're leaving for the south immediately."

After saying that, he had everyone prepare to leave. They loaded all the fake merchant goods that Wu Xing had bought onto the carriage so that they could be inspected at various checkpoints along the way.

When everything was ready, Mu Linfeng went to the inner hall to wake up Chen Yuanyuan. Chen Yuanyuan opened her sleepy eyes and looked mischievous. She asked, "Mu Lang, why are you up so early today?"

Mu Linfeng sat on the edge of the bed and pinched Chen Yuanyuan's nose, "It's not that early." Chen Yuanyuan looked outside and quickly stuck out her tongue before getting up to get dressed.

Mu Linfeng said, "We're leaving for Nanjing today."

Chen Yuanyuan asked as she fixed her hair, "Isn't it tomorrow? Why are we leaving today?"

Mu Linfeng hugged her waist from behind and lightly kissed her cheek, "We need to get to Nanjing as soon as possible to develop my business."

Chen Yuanyuan looked at Mu Linfeng through the bronze mirror and asked in amazement, "What kind of business do you want to develop, Mu Lang?"

Mu Linfeng released his hands and sat mysteriously on the edge of the bed, "I don't know, but my business must be something that others don't have."

After tying up her hair, Chen Yuanyuan turned around and looked at Mu Linfeng. Suddenly, she giggled and then covered her red lips.

Mu Linfeng asked curiously, "Why are you laughing, Yuanyuan?"

Chen Yuanyuan got up and sat down next to Mu Linfeng, saying, "I suddenly remembered the last two nights, which were the happiest nights of my life."

Mu Linfeng smiled and hugged Chen Yuanyuan, sitting her on his lap and lightly kissed her, "I'll treat you like this every night from now on."

Chen Yuanyuan blushed instantly and pinched Mu Linfeng gently. She buried her head in Mu Linfeng's arms and didn't say anything, but her happy expression was already evident on her face.

Mu Linfeng was suddenly moved when Chen Yuanyuan pinched him, but he didn't know why. It seemed like he remembered something but couldn't quite recall it. Just then, Su Duxiu knocked on the door from outside, "Master, everything is ready and waiting for you."

Chen Yuanyuan heard someone outside the door and immediately stood up to tidy up her clothes.

Mu Linfeng got up and walked to the door. He saw Su Duxiu standing outside with his back to the door. Mu Linfeng said, "Okay, I'm coming."

Su Duxiu nodded and left. Mu Linfeng couldn't help but shake his head and smile. Su Duxiu was really a strange one, but it made it easier for him to do things.

After Chen Yuanyuan had finished preparing herself, she walked into the lobby with Mu Linfeng. Although everyone had seen Chen Yuanyuan's beauty that night, they were still amazed by her appearance and looked at Mu Linfeng with envy. However, there was no jealousy, as they all believed that only someone as handsome and tall as Mu Linfeng could be worthy of Chen Yuanyuan's celestial beauty.

A surge of male chauvinism and the feeling of being a strong man rose in Mu Linfeng's heart.

Mu Linfeng and Chen Yuanyuan were in one carriage, while the four families were in one or two other carriages. The other vehicles were carrying goods, and the brothers of the stronghold were all riding horses. Over the next few days, Mu Linfeng and Chen Yuanyuan chatted in the carriage, occasionally singing modern songs, which made Chen Yuanyuan continuously kiss Mu Linfeng. It was also during this time that Chen Yuanyuan completely gave her heart to Mu Linfeng.

Mu Linfeng occasionally wanted to practice the finger techniques and steps taught to him by Mu Ren, but he did so intermittently and did not strictly follow what they had said. One day, when he was resting with the horse team and looking at "Acupoint Common Sense," Mu Linfeng started practicing finger techniques and steps by himself. He worked hard because he had been in the Ming Dynasty for a month now, and with the emergence of numerous martial arts experts, he knew that in this special era of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, he could not protect himself or his loved ones without strong personal power. He also knew that in these turbulent times, one did not know what would happen tomorrow, so only by constantly strengthening himself could he get the greatest security.

Three days later, the horse team entered the jurisdiction of Jinan Prefecture. Shandong has always been a relatively poor area in the country, with very few prosperous counties and cities. Jinan Prefecture was one of them, and as soon as they entered the city, a thriving scene emerged before their eyes. Pedestrians were coming and going, and although Shandong was located in the north of the Yangtze River and adjacent to the Yellow River, Li Zicheng's rebel army had not yet become powerful enough to reach this area.

Mu Linfeng knew that only Su Duxiu among the four families was a scholar, and he should be well-informed. So he asked Su Duxiu about the major events of the Ming Dynasty in recent years. According to Su Duxiu, except for some minor differences in details from what Mu Linfeng knew about history, everything else was the same. Zhang Xianzhong had captured Sichuan province, but nothing major had happened.

Four of them searched for a first-class inn for Mu Linfeng. Mu Linfeng did not want to stay in an inn. He thought that Wu Xing's caravan had only left one day before him, and if his team increased their speed, they should be able to catch up. However, after days of bumpy travel, Chen Yuanyuan could no longer endure it, so Mu Linfeng had to stay in an inn.

It was noon when they arrived at the inn. Mu Linfeng asked the staff to set up a few large tables and cook several pots of rice and dozens of dishes. Mu Linfeng sat at a table with Chen Yuanyuan and the four others, while the rest of the brothers were seated at three other tables. Other guests saw that Mu Linfeng was surrounded by a group of people, and many of them looked fierce, so they dared not approach and sat far away. Some timid ones had just walked in the door and immediately left when they saw Mu Linfeng.

At this moment, a young man dressed like a scholar walked into the inn, holding a sword in his hand. He sat down at the table next to Mu Linfeng and others and loudly called out, "Innkeeper, bring me two catties of the best Daughter's Red wine." Mu Linfeng heard his accent and felt that he was a friendly person, perhaps from the border city. He quickly looked over at him.
