"It's snowing."
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. Autumn had already left, and the 33rd snow of early winter had arrived. In just one night, the village at the foot of the mountain had changed. Behind them, Mengze Mountain was covered in snow, and the vast land in front of them was covered in silver. Even the training field was covered in a thin layer of snow. Li Mo and Bai Moli were struggling in the snow as if they were competing with each other. Xiao Douzi was walking back and forth on the plum tree stump, and the other children were also trying their best. However, An Guo was nowhere to be seen. Wang Yan and Diwu Yun were standing on the side of the training field.
"An Guo has decided not to practice martial arts?"
In the past ten days, Wang Yan would stay in the training field for two to four hours every day. Most of his time was used to teach Bai Moli and Xiao Douzi. He would also give some pointers to the other children. However, An Guo had never come back to the training field ever since the day Xiao Douzi became a warrior. Although Wang Yan expected that this child would not be able to become a warrior because of the shock, he didn't expect that his mind would be this fragile.
Diwu Yun sighed and nodded helplessly. She also didn't expect An Guo to be this weak. It was always depressing to have one's hopes destroyed. Diwu Yun was not in a good mood these days. Luckily, there was still the stubborn Li Mo, so Diwu Yun spoiled him even more.
Seeing Diwu Yun's expression, Wang Yan didn't want to continue this topic. He immediately changed the topic, "I have to go out today. Xia He should be back from the Shujian Zhuang. Today is the day we agreed to meet."
Wang Yan was very honest in front of Diwu Yun. He didn't hide the fact that he was working together with Xia He. Diwu Yun didn't ask too much and just said, "Go."
Then, Diwu Yun seemed to remember something and said, "I have to go out as well."
"Where are you going?"
"It's winter, and there's less and less game on the mountain. The harvest these few days isn't good, and it's not enough for the children to eat. I'm going out to buy some meat."
Wang Yan nodded. He knew that these children must not stop eating meat at the moment. Just look at Bai Moli. Ever since Wang Yan massaged her uterus that day, the girl practiced even harder. However, because she had Xiao Douzi to help her every day, after more than ten days, the girl's face and body had gained some meat, and her body was slightly firmer. However, if he was cut off from meat at this time, it would be useless even if Wang Yan personally massaged his blood every day.
"Want to go with me?"
Facing Wang Yan's invitation, Diwu Yun shook his head and said with a smile, "Who goes to Tianmaji to buy meat? I'll just go to the nearby town and buy some myself. Xiao Douzi just happens to want to go out and play every day, so I'll bring them along. It'll help An Guo relax. "
Wang Yan knew that Diwu Yun was still fantasizing about An Guo. It was just that An Guo's biggest worry was little bean. Little bean would definitely be fine, but An Guo would probably give up on practicing martial arts if he brought them together in such a situation. Little bean would definitely be fine, but An Guo would probably give up on practicing martial arts.
However, Wang Yan wouldn't say this out loud. Diwu Yun didn't interfere with him, and he wouldn't interfere with Diwu Yun either. The two of them had a tacit understanding.
"Be careful on the road."
"Don't worry, you too."
.....
"Coo coo."
Under the night sky, Wang Yan ran all the way to the yellow soil mound and heard the sound of birds chirping from the mound.
Hearing this sound, Wang Yan couldn't help but smile. Then, he used his Qing Gong and jumped up the mound in a few leaps. Then, he followed the sound of the birds and moved forward. Not long after, he saw Xia He leaning against a tree in front of him. His hands were cupped around his mouth, and the birds chirped from time to time.
"You're finally here. I almost fell asleep waiting."
Xia He also sensed Wang Yan's arrival, so he turned his head and said these words listlessly. It was really hard for him to wait for someone in the middle of the night in a place where there wasn't even a shadow. It was very boring.
Wang Yan laughed and said, "I didn't want to come at first, but I thought that you would at least struggle a few times with a woman. Who knows, maybe you'll stand me up this time."
After working together a few times, the two of them were already familiar with each other. The way they talked to each other was much more casual, and they weren't as reserved and polite as before. No matter what Xia He thought, Wang Yan liked this kind of casual feeling.
Hearing Wang Yan's words, Xia He jumped up and spat, saying, "Forget it. That Second Miss of the Shujian Zhuang. She has bow-legged legs, dead fish eyes, and a silly person. Even if I like Ying Yu, I don't like her."
Ying Yu?
Wang Yan laughed strangely and said, "So you were pretending that day. It seems that even if I didn't stop you, I wouldn't have been able to do it. What? It's been so long, and you're still thinking about this prostitute? She's most likely in Lianyue City now. Do you want to go look for her? "
"Bullsh * t!"
Xia He stiffened his neck and looked like he was about to fall out with him. However, Wang Yan didn't play along and found a big rock to sit on. Seeing this, Xia He waved his hand helplessly and said, "Forget it. I don't want to talk about this nonsense. Let's talk business!"
"You have a deal again?"
After being idle for almost a month, Wang Yan enjoyed the peaceful life in the mountains. However, he knew the importance of strength. Moreover, he had made a series of breakthroughs during this period of time. He had long wanted to test his sword skills.
"The Shujian Zhuang!"
Xia He replied with three words. Wang Yan couldn't help but frown. The Shujian Zhuang was in the territory of the Hengshui City. That place wasn't like the South River Valley. If small shrimps in the Physical Body Realm like them dared to mess around, they wouldn't be able to survive even if they had ten lives.
Seeing Wang Yan's reaction, Xia He didn't find it strange. He only said, "Do you know why the Shujian Zhuang wanted to find a husband for the silly Second Miss this time? Do you know what the Old Manor Lord took out to find a husband? "
Wang Yan naturally didn't know. Xia He immediately told him the whole story.
It turned out that the Old Manor Lord of the Shujian Zhuang had committed some kind of sin when he was young. When he was old, he became obedient and clumsy. He had four daughters, but none of them had a son. Other than the youngest daughter who died when she was born, the other three daughters were raised with great difficulty. However, the eldest daughter died two years after she was married. The second daughter was silly when she was born and had always been raised in her boudoir. Originally, the third daughter was smart and witty. She was also beautiful and adorable, but unexpectedly, she was ruined by Wei Xiaofeng.
As a result, the Old Manor Lord was left with only a second daughter. The Shujian Zhuang family's huge foundation had no one to inherit it. Therefore, the old man figured out a method to find a husband through a martial arts competition. For this reason, the Old Manor Lord had sent out invitations everywhere. However, in order to avoid inviting a wolf into the house, the old man limited the number of people who came to participate in the martial arts competition to Opening Pulse practitioners under the age of thirty.
Perhaps it was because the Old Manor Lord knew that his second daughter was congenitally deficient. He was also afraid that the inheritance of the Shujian Zhuang would be too far in the future and wouldn't be able to attract young talents. This time, the old man was ruthless. He actually took out a bottle of Thousand Year Stalactite Milk Stone and a stalk of Elemental Rest Grass as a gift. As long as the young talent won the entire arena and was undefeatable, he would immediately offer these two items after the wedding ceremony.
When Wang Yan heard this, his eyes couldn't help but brighten. However, he didn't expect that Xia He snorted and said, "Actually, these are all reasons that the Old Manor Lord used on the surface. He actually has another purpose for this martial arts competition."
As he said this, Xia He took out an item from his bosom. It was the undergarment that he obtained from Wei Xiaofeng.
"Do you know what this is?"
Wang Yan shook his head in confusion. Xia He chuckled and said, "Wei Xiaofeng really wasn't bragging that day. Not only did he defile the Third Young Mistress of the Shujian Zhuang, but he also slept with the Third Young Mistress's mother, who is the current Manor Lord's wife of the Shujian Zhuang."
The Old Manor Lord of the Shujian Zhuang had three wives, and the current Manor Lord's wife was naturally the last one. She was only 40 years old and was much younger than the Old Manor Lord. Although she was already a middle-aged woman, she still retained her charm and was one of the more famous and beautiful women in Hengshui City.
"The Manor Lord's wife, Yan Yu 'er, is really fickle. It's not an exaggeration to say that she has a pair of jade-like arms that many men can sleep with. Therefore, Yan Yu' er has deep connections in Hengshui City. Seeing that the Old Manor Lord had passed away one after another and had no successor, this woman was tempted to let her distant nephew be the future master of the Shujian Zhuang.
"Yan Yu 'er thought that she was acting in secret, but she didn't expect that the Old Manor Lord had been operating in the manor for many years and had set up countless informants. Not only did the Old Manor Lord know about Yan Yu' er's plans, but he also knew that this woman was having illicit relations with her so-called distant nephew."
At this point, Xia He grew impatient and spat. "Anyway, it's just a bunch of bullsh * t. As for the current situation, the Old Manor Lord is afraid of Yan Yu 'er's connections and doesn't dare to act rashly to get rid of her. Also, he doesn't want to wash his dirty linen in public. Therefore, he wants to find a powerful son-in-law to guard the manor. For this reason, he is even prepared to confirm the successor of the Shujian Zhuang in front of all the guests when his daughter and son-in-law go through the wedding ceremony in order to completely eliminate Yan Yu' er."
"Although the Old Manor Lord's plan is good, he is making a big fuss. How could Yan Yu 'er not notice it? After learning about the Old Manor Lord's intentions, Yan Yu' er came up with a vicious plan. She secretly bribed the people who came to participate in the martial arts competition for a spouse. She was prepared to stage a chaotic battle to snatch the bride. She then used her connections to hire several experts in the Nurturing Embryo Realm to get rid of the Old Manor Lord."
"How do you know so much about this?"
Wang Yan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Logically speaking, what Xia He had said was the most secretive information in the Shujian Zhuang. Xia He was not a native of Hengshui City and had no previous involvement with the Shujian Zhuang. How could he know these secretive information so clearly?
Upon hearing Wang Yan's question, Xia He couldn't help but shrink the hand that was holding the dudou. He immediately felt that something was wrong, so he blushed and scolded, "It's none of your business."
Upon seeing this, Wang Yan chuckled strangely and said, "Boy, you're really going all out. You even resorted to the honey trap. No wonder you got so much information."
As soon as he said this, Xia He was about to fly into a rage. Wang Yan couldn't help but change the topic. "Okay, let's stop joking and get down to business. What can we get from this? "
"Fishing in troubled waters is for sure. However, the bottle of thousand-year-old stalactite milk and Elemental Rest Grass that Old Master took out, as well as the famous sword of the Shujian Zhuang, 'Heaven Rest', are all in the open. There are too many people eyeing these three things, so we have no chance.
But … "
At this point, Xia He's voice lowered a little before he said, "This old man has secretly hidden a famous sword. This sword is called 'Falling Sand'. I've specially investigated it, and the whereabouts of this famous sword, Falling Sand, is marked on the Divine Armament Guide as unknown. There are very few people who know about this, so the person who gave me this information should not be lying. If you are willing to help, I will definitely give this famous sword to you after this matter is over."
Wang Yan trusted Xia He's words. However, if he wanted to use a famous sword in exchange for his help, then what he wanted to do might not be simple. Moreover …
Wang Yan's eyes couldn't help but fall on the dudou. He didn't expect that this thing that he had overlooked previously seemed to be quite an extraordinary thing. However, Wang Yan didn't think too much about it. He pondered for a while and said, "What can you get?"
"A bottle of thousand-year-old stalactite milk."
For a casual player like Xia He, forming a fetus depended on his own luck. A bottle of thousand-year-old stalactite milk was worth no less than a famous sword in his eyes. Wang Yan didn't have any other questions. He just said, "What do you need me to do?"
