"Tssseek!" A cracking sound was heard as a piece of gauze in the woman's hand was torn into pieces."What is the name of the woman?"
Ye Ling replied, "Her companions call her Stone."
"Stone? "The woman in white was stunned. She grasped the gauze in hand tightly."How can someone so skilled carry such a bandit name?"
Ye Ling smiled."They come from the wilderness, so the name is naturally very down to earth. The rest are called Tie Dan, Tie Niu, Chun Cao, and so on. Stone is the daughter of their patriarch..."
The woman frowned."How does she look like?"
"She looks 18 or 19. She is pretty, and her skin is of a healthy wheat color. Why? Ah Luo, do you know her? Of the entire group, only the patriarch was born outside the valley."
The white-dressed woman frowned again. A glimmer of light seemed to flash in her eyes. Was it just a coincidence?
"I heard that the old patriarch claimed to be the son of the former city owner Hua Zhichun?"
Ye Ling smirked."Many people have pretended to be him over the past few years. However, this man looks very old. His hair is all white, and his face is full of wrinkles."
The woman in white faintly said, "Then this time it may be true. If Hua Zhichun were still alive, he would be almost 140 years old. If he does not have spiritual power to protect his body, he should look like this way. You better be careful; after all, his father died in your hands!"
Ye Ling did not care."I doubt that this old man is Hua Zhichun, but even if he is, what can he do? He is just an old man who is going to die."
"Hmmph. Just do not take him for granted."
"Ah Luo, are you trying to express care for me?"
"Oh, don't think so much. I just don't want you to delay the big project."
"I see. Ah Luo, please be assured, I will live well and support the city. There will be no mistakes."
"That better be the case! You can go now!" The white-dressed woman impolitely asked him to leave.
Ye Ling got up, and suddenly thought of something when he walked to the door. He said, "There are two groups of people who came here today. There is a man in one of the groups which is particularly powerful. He acquired the spiritual crystals for the entire group. This man is a little bit weird, but his martial arts seems to be very good. He will go hunting for a grade-one spiritual crystal alone tomorrow morning."
The woman was not interested."Good. When the master comes, our spiritual crystals will be more abundant. You should retain him well and don't let such a talent go."
"I understand." Ye Ling turned and headed to the door.
"How does the man look like?"
"He was wearing a mask; so, I couldn't see his face. However, when he came, he wore a purple robe similar to mine."
The white-dressed woman went stiff."What is his name?" She seemed to speak louder than before.
"I don't know his name yet, but his companion called him Mr. Di."
The woman remained silent.
Ye Ling waited for a moment but did not get her response, so he said again, "Ah Luo, I want to marry the woman named Stone, can you..."
"You can marry whoever you want. I don't care as long as you don't delay our big project!"
"Alright!"
...
Gu Xijiu was probably too tired, so she slept till the next morning.
