Gu Yuan saw that he spoke in a dignified manner, so she thought about it carefully, but she couldn't remember what he did to save her after waking up.

"Speak clearly if you have something to say, don't say half and leave half."

"When you were struggling in the water yesterday, who fished you up?" Xiao Chiyu looked at her with great interest, as if expecting something.

Gu Yuan was startled: "It was you then?? I thought..."

"What do you think? In order to go back to get you, I choked on several saliva, if not, I don't need your rescue at all."

Gu Yuan's expression was very surprised, she really didn't expect him to be the one who saved her.

"Then...we're even."

Thinking about the attitude towards him yesterday, Gu Yuan still felt a little bit sorry.

Xiao Chiyu was very satisfied with her expression, patted the fallen leaves on her body and stood up, stretching out a hand.

Gu Yuan frowned: "What do you want?"

"My clothes."

"Oh..." Gu Yuan immediately handed over the clothes, "Thank you."

Xiao Chiyu put on the clothes quickly, and the corners of his mouth curled into an imperceptible arc, and said: "Since it's evened, treat me better in the future."

Gu Yuan pursed her lips: "This is mutual, if you can talk to me well, then I can too."

"Then you can't play tricks anymore, you need to go honestly with me to find the Red Rock Snake. When a gentleman says something, he must keep his word. Since you have promised me, you must be loyal."

"I'm not a gentleman..." Gu Yuan couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

"Ok?"

"Okay, I get it, I will follow you obediently until your poison is completely cured."

"That's good."

When passing by Gu Yuan's side, Xiao Chiyu reached out and rubbed her hair.

Subconsciously, Gu Yuan thought that he was going to pinch her neck again, so she dodged to the side, but when she found out it was not, she couldn't help but retaliate.

"Who told you to touch my head, be careful I will knock your head off!"

Xiao Chiyu smiled: "Then you must have this ability."

"Then I have to let you experience my ability, watch the trick!"

The two came to Situ Yun's side laughing and making noise, the atmosphere was quite different from yesterday.

Situ Yun silently picked up the clothes on the ground, and said, "It's already daylight, we have to find a place where there are people as soon as possible, and mark it to meet other people."

The three of them walked straight along the lake, and it took nearly half a day before they saw a family.

Gu Yuan hurriedly went forward to inquire, and said that due to the perennial ebb and flow of the tide, there are few people living here, and it takes half a day to go to the town.

Moreover, the nearest town belongs to Shitan County. Although it is only one lake away from Qingshan County on the other side of Wanjing Lake, if you take a detour, it will take you hundreds of thousands of miles.

After having a meal at the fellow's place, the three of them started to set off again, heading in the direction indicated by the fellow.

Finally, before dark, they arrived at the gate of Shuangyong City.

"Oh, I'm so exhausted, I finally see hope."

Gu Yuan felt that if there was a bed under her body, she could fall asleep immediately.

"Brother Fang, Brother Situ, let's go into the city and find an inn to rest."

There were guards at the gate of the city, so Gu Yuan rummaged in her arms and found the guide hidden in her coat.

It's just that when he took it back, he was shocked.

"My banknote! My banknote is gone!"

Yesterday's situation was too dangerous, and Gu Yuan didn't think about it at all.

Just now, it suddenly occurred to her that besides Lu Yin, there was also her most precious bank note in her bosom, and now she couldn't touch it no matter what.

It must have been washed away by the water in Wanjing Lake before.

Xiao Chiyu didn't take it seriously: "Anyway, that thing won't be used here, so there's no need to worry."

"How can you not be in a hurry? That's all my property! Even if you can't use it here, you can still use it when you return to Kyoto. It's easy for me to earn such a little money!"

Thinking of going back to before liberation in an instant, from a rich woman to a poor man, Gu Yuan's heart hurts so much that she can't breathe.

Xiao Chiyu frowned slightly: "Actually, it's not difficult to earn money. With your ability, most people are taken advantage of and send money to you."

Gu Yuan gave him a hard look.

She knew who he was talking about, and she knew he was taunting her.

The fact that she was able to escape unscathed before was mainly due to Xiao Chiyu's snobbishness in Feihe Tower, and also because she left the capital quickly without causing trouble for Feng Shi.

Once you get back there, you may not be able to get through it safely, and it will be even more difficult to start again.

On the way to the inn, Gu Yuan was listless, even Situ Yun was beside her to comfort her.

However, she never thought that there would be worse things waiting for her in the future.

"You still want to stay in a hotel without any money? I think you guys are just wishful thinking! Let's go, hurry up, don't disturb our business!"

When Gu Yuan was kicked out, she still looked shocked and couldn't believe it.

She turned her head to look at Xiao Chiyu: "What's the matter, you don't have any money?!"

Xiao Chiyu's eyes dodged slightly, he turned his head away from her, and said, "It should have fallen in the water."

"Why don't you fasten your purse tighter, this can fall too?!"

"Didn't your banknote also drop?"

"I..." Gu Yuan felt that what he said was very reasonable, but she was powerless to refute.

He quickly turned his head to look at Situ Yun on the left, and said, "Brother Situ, you can't be so coincidental, can you?"

Situ Yun coughed lightly: "My money is never kept on me, but by two of my followers. Now I'm separated from them, I'm really penniless."

Gu Yuan: ...

Looks like I'll have to sleep on the street tonight.

"Then what should we do now? It's so cold at night...we haven't eaten yet..."

Xiao Chiyu looked at the jade pendant on Situ Yun's waist, and said: "I see that the jade pendant on Mr. Situ's waist is invaluable. Now we have nowhere to go. Why don't Mr. Situ put the jade pendant in the pawn shop for some silver temporarily, and wait to share it with your subordinates?" Redeem it after rendezvous."

Situ Yun looked down, then straightened his clothes and covered the jade pendant under his coat.

"This is a treasure handed down from my family, and there must be no mistakes. It may be against Mr. Fang's wishes."

He also looked at his waist and said: "I see that Mr. Fang also has a jade pendant on his waist. It seems to be made of black jade. It is also very valuable. Why don't Mr. Fang feel wronged and mortgage this jade pendant to the pawnshop."

The corner of Fang Yu's mouth curled slightly: "Coincidentally, mine is also a family heirloom."

Gu Yuan looked left and right, thought that there was hope, but seeing that they didn't agree with each other, she sighed deeply.

Half an hour later, the three of them appeared in a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city.

Surrounded by beggars, Gu Yuan picked a fairly clean corner to nest in, with mixed feelings in her heart.
