Wang Chuyi laughed, "Everyone has to die sooner or later, it is up to heaven, we have no say and anyway I may not die, so why all this crying?" and started singing.

Guo Jing dried his tears and looked better, Wang Chuyi laughed out aloud and sat upright on the bed before using strength to recuperate.

Guo Jing did not dare to make any noise and crept out of the room, he suddenly thought, "If I rush to another nearby city, they may not have finish buying up the medicine."

Happily, he was about to set off when he saw the inn boy running towards him with a letter, on top of the letter spelt, 'Please read it yourself, big master Guo.'

Guo Jing felt curious and wondered who would write to him. He hurriedly tore open the letter and shook open a white piece of paper which wrote, 'I have something urgent to tell you, will be waiting for you at the river which is ten meters, west away from the city." At the bottom of the letter, was a vivid drawing of a little beggar who was laughing, it was Huang Rong.

Guo Jing thought to himself, "How does he know that I am here?" and turned to the inn boy, "Who sent this letter here?"

The inn boy replied, "It was sent here by a wandering commoner."

Guo Jing returned to his room and saw that Wang Chuyi was stretching his limbs.

He said, "Taoist Wang, I'm going to the nearby cities to buy the medicine."

Wang Chuyi answered, "If we are able to think of this, they will able too, there's no need to go."

Guo Jing would not give up and was determined to try, he thought, "Brother Huang is so intelligent, so I will ask discuss with him first."

He told Wang Chuyi, "My good friend wants to meet me, I will immediately return after meeting him." And with that, he showed the letter to Wang Chuyi, the latter thought awhile and asked Guo Jing how he knew this fellow.

Guo Jing related the story to Wang Chuyi and the latter thought, "I saw how this fellow tricked Hou Tonghai, his skills are very weird and unusual….."

He turned to Guo Jing and said, "You must be careful, this kid's skills is much higher than yours, and his skills seem unorthodox, up till now, I cannot guess his origins."

Guo Jing replied, "He is my best buddy so he will not harm me."

Wang Chuyi sighed, "You have not known him for long, how can you be sure whether he is your best buddy? He may be petite in size, but if he wants to trick you, you won't be able to defend yourself."

Guo Jing was not the least suspicious of Huang Rong and thought to himself, "Taoist Wang says this because he doesn't know brother Huang's character." And with that, kept singing praises of Huang Rong non-stop.

Wang Chuyi laughed and said, "Alright, go then, young people must meet some danger so as to gain experience. This person….seeing his figure and voice….he is not a…..can't you tell?"

Wang chuyi stopped here and just shook his head. Guo Jing placed the sheet of medicine formula in his pocket and ran out. When he reached the outer city, he could see snow, but it was isolated all around. He walked ten meters west and some reflections of water; it was indeed a small lake. The weather was not the coldest, so the lake was not frozen; flower petals covered with snow floated on the water and beside the lake were rows and rows of plum trees. The plum flowers looked magnificent beside the snow flowers.

Guo Jing could not see anyone about and for an anxious moment, he thought, "What if he waited for me too long and so left?" and began to shout out loud, "brother Huang, brother Huang."

Guo Jing suddenly heard a sound and turned around sharply, only to realize that it was made by river birds. Guo Jing was very disappointed, and called out two more times, before thinking, "Maybe he hasn't reach yet, I'll wait for him here then."

Sitting down by the lake, Guo Jing thought about Huang Rong, then he thought about Wang Chuyi's injuries and no mood to enjoy the sceneries. Besides, he was used to seeing snow as he has grew up in Mongolia and he did not bother to look out for the differences in landscape between Mongolia and the central plains. He waited for a long while and suddenly heard some noises among the trees.

Feeling curious, he walked over and heard a rough voice, "Why still act like a big brother when all of us, including you wasted time just now?" another voice answered, "Damn it! If it were not for you being such a coward we would have won if four of us ganged up on one." Another one answered, "What's the big deal when you even tripped while running it away." It sounded like the four demons of the yellow river.

Guo Jing summoned all his courage and stepped into the trees, only to see no one. He suddenly heard a voice, "If we fought up front, how can we lose, but who we have thought that the little beggar had so many tricks up his sleeves…"

Guo Jing looked up and saw four men dangling in mid air, swinging to and fro, yet squabbling non-stop, it was indeed the four demons of the yellow river. His heart jumped for joy, as he knew that Huang Rong was nearby, and let out a laugh before asking, "Hey, are you guys practicing your lightness skill again?"

Qian Qingjian retorted angrily, "Who says that we are practicing our lightness skills? Haven't you any eyes to see that we were hanged here?"

Guo Jing laughed out loud and Qian Qingjian angrily tried to use his leg to kick Guo Jing, but how could he when the distance between them was so huge?

Ma Qingxiong scolded, "Rascal, if you don't go away, I will pee on you!"

Guo Jing laughed till he could not stand up straight and said, "I stand away then, your pee can't reach me."

Suddenly, there was a sound of gentle laughter and Guo Jing turned around, only to hear the splashing of water and see a leaf floating down from a tree. Then, he saw a girl at the tail of a boat, rowing gently. She had long hair beneath her shoulders, was dressed in white from head to toe and had some golden pins in her hair, which shone like fire, amongst the snow. Guo Jing saw that the girl's dressing looked like a fairy and was dumb. The boat slowly rowed nearer, and he saw that the girl was barely, fifteen or sixteen years of age. She had very smooth skin that was as white as snow, a beautiful colour on her cheeks and had an incredible beauty which was incomparable. Guo Jing was struck by her amazing beauty and retreated a few steps, before turning away, not daring to look at her.

The young girl tied the boat near the bank and called out , "Brother Jing, come on board!"

Guo Jing was astonished, and turned around, only to see the girl smiling sweetly and her robe floating gently in the wind.

Guo Jing felt like he was in a dream and used both hands to rub his eyes.

The young girl giggled and said, "Why? You don't recognize me?"

Guo Jing thought that she sounded like Huang Rong, but how can a dirty and lowly male beggar suddenly transform into a beautiful fairy? He couldn't believe his eyes.

He heard the voices of the four demons of the yellow river behind him shouting, "Little miss, help us to cut off the ropes that are hanging us up, let us down! If you help us, I'll give you a hundred tales of gold! Each one of us will give you a hundred tales; you'll get four hundred tales all together. We can even give you eight hundred tales!"
