Chapter 65 The Girl and the Secret Letter

The girl's stall was located in a very remote area, and there were not only a few items for sale in her stall, but also nothing good. Therefore, after half a day, no one came to ask. This made the girl look out of place with the surrounding environment, looking very lonely and pitiful.

When the girl saw Wu Yan asking her, she smiled shyly at Wu Yan, hurriedly waved her hands and whispered: "Tao, fellow Taoist, don't get me wrong, this kind of seed is not a magic medicine seed. It's something I made in an unknown place." I accidentally discovered it while collecting medicine in the valley. I originally thought it was some unknown elixir seed. Unfortunately, after I went back and examined it, I was told that it was an unknown poison that had been buried underground for hundreds of years and had petrified. Vine seeds. If you want to buy something else, this bag of seeds can be given to you for free."

Wu Yan picked up a seed, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, with a trace of doubt and confusion on his face. This kind of seed is about the size of a broad bean, black and inconspicuous as a stone. It is very hard when held in the hand. Wu Yan even tried to squeeze it with great strength, but he could not move the seed at all.

When the girl saw Wu Yan pinching the nugget hard and his funny actions, she couldn't help but chuckle. She immediately realized her gaffe, hurriedly covered her mouth shyly, and whispered: "Fellow Taoist, you can't crush this nugget." . Even with the blessing of giant power, it can't be damaged at all."

Wu Yan nodded noncommittally, and then put the seed back into the small bag. Afterwards, he casually looked through other things on the girl's stall, and casually chatted: "I wonder what you call your friend? Aren't your family worried about you going out alone at such a young age?"

The girl was suddenly asked such a private question, and she looked a little at a loss. Her face turned even redder, as if she could drip water, and she said in the middle of her mouth: "This, this, fellow Taoist, you..."

"Hey, aren't you just asking for your name? Are you sorry? My name is Wu Yan. Girl, don't you think that I am some bad person?" Wu Yan looked at the girl in a funny way, feeling quite amused. , this girl is almost as shy as the beautiful girl I saw outside the valley yesterday. It's just that her appearance is not as good as that of the beautiful girl, but her temperament is more pure and cute.

"My, my, my name is An Yingying. I ran out secretly by myself. I heard people said that you can trade things here, so I wanted to come and see it." The girl stuck out her lilac tongue, which was pink and cute. Wu Yan was dumbfounded. I was stunned, and wanted to shave her cute little nose, but thinking that this behavior was a bit arrogant, I coughed a few times, resisted the urge, pointed to a broken book on the stall and said: "Miss An , how do you sell your book "The Book of Grass and Trees"?

After flipping through a few pages, Wu Yan discovered that this was a book that recorded the types and styles of spiritual plants and trees commonly found in the world of immortality. However, the first half was somehow missing, and the second half was also somewhat incomplete. If the book had not been sealed with three pieces of metal strips, and the title of the book had been engraved on the metal cover, it would have been impossible to know the title of the book. What's strange is that the metal book cover is made of unknown metal. The lead-gray book cover is stained with black and red rust. Fortunately, the girl even took it out to sell.

When the girl saw Wu Yan pointing at the broken book and asking her, her face turned red again. She probably knew that the book was too torn and old, and she was a little embarrassed to open her mouth. The girl probably regretted why she sold such a broken scripture. But since Wu Yan asked, she had to answer, so she replied in a soft voice that only the two of them could hear: "This is a book I picked up in the valley where I found that seed, but , it really records a lot of maps of spiritual plants and spiritual trees, many of which have been lost for a long time. If you want it, fellow Taoist, just give me a spiritual stone. "

Wu Yan immediately smiled bitterly, this girl really knew how to speak out. Just this half-broken book, and it's a tattered book that has no use, and it costs a spiritual stone. It's no wonder that no one is interested in her stall.

Wu Yan stood up, smiled and shook his head at An Yingying, and planned to turn around and leave. An Yingying finally met a customer, but when she saw that she was frightened by her asking price and was about to leave, she stood up hurriedly and grabbed Wu Yan's arm, and said with an uneasy face: "This person said, um, Brother Wu Yan , please buy these things. I ran out alone and spent all my money. The only two spiritual stones I had were charged when I came in. Otherwise, I would take them. I’ll also sell you this gourd of spiritual insects and this book of “Spiritual Insects”. Can you count them as five spiritual stones in total? These gourds and “Spiritual Insects” were left to me by my grandfather before he died. I have nothing now. I really want to go home. Please, Brother Wu, please help me."

The girl might have really escaped as she said, and ended up in this miserable situation. Originally there were still two spiritual stones, but they were fooled by the Immortal Valley Loose Cultivator Alliance out of ignorance.

Wu Yan smiled bitterly and wanted to get rid of the girl's entanglement, but the girl An Yingying was probably really afraid that he would leave. She was afraid that it would be difficult to meet a customer who was willing to come to her stall to inquire, so she held her tightly with a blushing face. Wu Yan's arms were full of pleading.

"Miss An, what do you really want? It won't be good for you if people see you messing around like this. Won't you try to contact your family and ask them to come to you?"

An Yingying lowered her head in shame, muttering in a mosquito-like voice: "I, I just want to come out and see the outside world. Besides, I don't know if the spiritual insect gourd and the "Spirit Insect Book" that my grandfather gave me before he died are useful. I just want to try to catch some spiritual insects and raise them. Who knew that after I came out, there were so many bad people who cheated people's money and wanted to take advantage of them. Alas, I really regret coming out..."

Wu Yan was completely speechless by the girl's experience this time. There are people in the world who are so pure and innocent. After thinking about it, Wu Yan gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision, then grabbed An Yingying's soft and white little hand, motioning her to let go. An Yingying misunderstood, and Wu Yan held her hand, her face was red and bloody, she panicked, but she heard Wu Yan sighing, "How about this, Miss An, I'll give you three spiritual stones and some gold to buy the things you just mentioned. It's my bad luck to meet such a cute and pitiful girl like you, oh, forget it, you took the money and spiritual stones, and you should go home quickly, it's always dangerous for a girl to go out."

"Ah?" An Yingying stared at Wu Yan in disbelief, she didn't expect him to really buy her things.

"Why, you don't want to sell it? Then just pretend I didn't say anything." Wu Yan pinched his nose and smiled.

"Sell, sell, hehe, thank you, Brother Wu, you are such a good person. I will pack up the things for you right now." An Yingying was overjoyed and quickly cleaned up the things on the ground, then packed the small bag containing more than a hundred poison ivy seeds and the broken "Herbal Classic" together, and took out a half-worn book and a fist-sized dark red gourd from the storage bag and handed them to Wu Yan. Wu Yan put all these things away at once, and seeing An Yingying looking at him with a pair of bright eyes, he smiled, took out three spiritual stones and a dozen gold leaves from his storage bag, and stuffed them into An Yingying's hand.

Shaking An Yingying's soft and boneless little hand, Wu Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Miss An, go back quickly, be careful on the road, and don't be deceived by bad people again."

An Yingying hummed softly, blushed and pulled out her little hand, turned around and walked happily towards the exit of the trading field. After walking a dozen steps, he turned back and chuckled at Wu Yan who was standing there, and hopped away like a happy little deer.

Wu Yan rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly. Now there is still a piece of spiritual stone left in the storage bag, and it is estimated that he can't buy anything. After turning around, he thought of the things that the black-clothed boy Lu Cangshan quietly handed to him, so he walked around in the valley for a while and returned to his quiet room.

Back in the quiet room, Wu Yan closed the stone door, and carefully checked the quiet room inside and out, confirming that there were no loopholes that might be left by someone to monitor. Then he carefully took out the things that Lu Cangshan gave him and looked at them carefully under the candlelight.

The thing is very ordinary, a small piece of bamboo. However, this small piece of bamboo is blood red all over, and it is called blood jade bamboo. This bamboo has a special function, which can emit a faint fragrance. This fragrance is very similar to the smell of sandalwood. It can make people concentrate and rest. It is an ornament often worn by monks.

Although the bamboo ornament in his hand was only half a piece, Wu Yan was very familiar with it. It was Lu Cangli's thing. He had seen it on Lu Cangli more than once.

There was a small black word on the bamboo, which looked like it was hastily carved by someone with a special technique. After Wu Yan saw the crooked word "escape" on the bamboo, his expression changed from calm to gloomy.

Lu Cangli was clearly telling him that someone was going to harm him and told him to escape quickly. As for why Lu Cangli didn't tell him in person, but used this secret way of contact to inform him, Wu Yan guessed that Lu Cangli might be tied up by something or being monitored. But no matter which situation it was, it was definitely not good news for Wu Yan.

After thinking about it, Wu Yan couldn't figure out who would want to deal with him and why. He asked himself that he had not leaked any secrets since he entered the valley. Could it be that he was hunted down by the Loose Cultivator Alliance just because he didn't want to join the Loose Cultivator Alliance?

It doesn't make sense in terms of emotion or reason, right? How could there be such a domineering thing in the world? How could there be such a domineering organization?

Lu Cangli was one of the six elders of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, but he was able to take the risk to inform me under such circumstances. Such friendship deeply moved Wu Yan. Speaking of it, the two of them met because of fighting. He used improper means to subdue Lu Cangli with poison. Although he did not hesitate to help him detoxify afterwards and won Lu Cangli's favor, Wu Yan did not dare to think that he could establish any friendship with Lu Cangli.

Wu Yan put away the half piece of blood jade bamboo, stood up, paced back and forth in the quiet room, touched his chin, and thought about something with a gloomy face. After a while, he seemed to have a plan, sneered, sat back on the stone bed indifferently, took out the things he bought today, and slowly looked through them one by one.
