"This person is too cunning...not simple!"
Now, Wanwan also noticed Qi Changfa's unusual behavior.
To be able to remain completely calm despite such humiliation requires a depth of cunning that even the Yin Kui Sect could not find many like.
"of course can."
Chen Yan also had a smiling expression.
But in his heart, he was plotting how to kill Qi Changfa.
Not only to resolve his lingering resentment, but also because he didn't want to leave behind a cold-blooded enemy like Qi Changfa.
Chen Yan agreed to answer Qi Changfa's question.
Everyone at Tongfu Inn, people from the martial arts world, and even Qi Fang and Di Yun were curious.
What important question did Qi Changfa want to ask?
He was even willing to do something so shameful to address this issue.
Qi Changfa took a deep breath and said, "Master Chen, the question I would like to ask is..."
At this point, he paused.
He walked a few steps into the fortune-telling shop, opened his palm towards Chen Yan, and wrote four large characters on his palm: "Liancheng Sword Manual".
After confirming that Chen Yan had seen it clearly, he said, "Master Chen, I would like to ask who stole my book and where it is hidden?"
"This guy is indeed not simple, he is very cunning. Because he was afraid of leaking secrets, he wrote the name of the sword manual on his hand."
Wanwan's heart stirred.
He was asking about the whereabouts of a book.
What kind of book could make him willing to pay such a high price?
The onlookers were also filled with doubt.
Chen Yan shook his head at this moment.
"you do not know?!"
Qi Changfa was stunned, shocked and furious.
Chen Yan took a sip of tea slowly before saying, "It's not that I don't know, but you only gave me ten taels of silver, so I can only ask one question."
"It seems that Manager Chen is indeed making things difficult for this person."
Bai Zhantang was certain of his decision.
Previously, when Chen Yan answered questions, he did not have a very strict requirement to accept money for each answer.
Sometimes, if you give him money, he will answer several questions in a row.
Now they're using this to make things difficult for Qi Changfa; it's no wonder they're deliberately making things difficult for him.
Qi Changfa was taken aback.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Then I'll ask the first question: who stole my book?"
His reason for choosing the first question was simple.
Once he finds out who stole the book, he'll have a way to get it back.
However, knowing only the location of the books does not necessarily mean being able to find the thief, which is a constant threat to him.
Chen Yan smiled and said, "Okay, now I'll answer your first question."
Qi Changfa pricked up his ears and listened intently, afraid of missing a single piece of information.
No one stole your book.
Ok?
Nobody stole my book?!
Qi Changfa was shocked and puzzled.
No one stole my [Liancheng Sword Manual], so why did it disappear?!
This is simply impossible!
correct!
Master Chen must also be coveting the treasure, so he made up some excuse to fob me off. He wants to keep those priceless treasures all to himself!
Qi Changfa, judging others by his own standards, was instantly consumed by anger.
You wicked Master Chen!
What kind of bullshit immortal master is this!
I really thought you were a hermit, but I never expected you to be just like us ordinary mortals, greedy for wealth!
Think of this.
His eyes flashed with a fierce light. In his anger, he forgot the vast difference in strength between himself and Chen Yan, and suddenly slapped his right hand towards Chen Yan!
"Dare to make a move in a fortune-telling shop? You're asking for death!"
Wanwan's eyes were icy cold, and she was about to make a move.
But only a yellow shadow flashed by.
Ah Huang stood upright, his body spinning 365 degrees in mid-air, and delivered a flying kick that sent Qi Changfa flying more than ten meters away...
Then, he landed on the ground, still standing on only his back two legs.
It crossed its two front paws over its chest, striking a cool pose.
Chen Yan saw this.
I tapped it on the head.
He jokingly scolded, "Stop trying to be cool. You're not even wearing pants, your little brother is showing."
If you want to look cool, let your older sister Wanwan sew you a pair of floral pants.
Seeing Chen Yan scolding Ah Huang, Wanwan initially found it amusing and burst into laughter.
Hearing Chen Yan say that she was Ah Huang's sister Wanwan, he became furious.
"Chen Yan, what do you mean by saying I'm Ah Huang's sister? Are you implying I'm a dog too?!"
Chen Yan shrugged.
“I didn’t say that. If you think that way, I don’t object.”
Wanwan was furious and wanted to attack Chen Yan.
But knowing he was no match for them, he snorted angrily and turned to leave.
Chen Yan patted Ah Huang's head: "Go find your sister Wanwan and sew you a pair of flowery pants."
Ah Huang rubbed its head against Chen Yan's hand, then wagged its tail and went to find Wanwan...
At this time.
Chen Yan turned around and looked at Qi Changfa, who was getting up from the ground, and said indifferently, "Indeed, no one stole your book. If you don't believe me, then forget it."
After saying that, she ignored Qi Changfa and the onlookers and went to the backyard to see if Wanwan had sewed flower pants for Ah Huang.
Qi Changfa clutched his aching chest, his face filled with surprise and uncertainty.
He had also heard the rumors that Chen Yan was infallible and never made a mistake.
But no one stole his own [Liancheng Sword Manual], so how could the manual have disappeared...?
He just couldn't understand this.
But he didn't know that.
His "Liancheng Sword Manual" was indeed not stolen, but taken openly and honestly.
The person who took the sword manual was his daughter, Qi Fang.
Because Qi Fang grew up in the countryside and didn't know many characters, she happened to be making shoe patterns that day. Seeing that the sword manual was yellowed and tattered, she thought it was a book no one wanted.
She casually slipped the shoe pattern into the book and took it to a secret cave known only to her and Di Yun…
Chapter 45 You are not good enough for me!
"I will never sew any flowery pants for Ah Huang! Never!"
"Then I'll deduct it from your salary."
"Fine, I'll deduct it! Ugh... I don't think I get paid at all, why are you deducting it?"
"Well then, I'll extend your chores hours."
"Shopkeeper, I was wrong, Wanwan knows she was wrong. I'll help Ah Huang sew the embroidered pants right away, but I don't know how to do needlework... Don't look at me with that contemptuous look. I am the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, it's normal that I don't know how to do needlework."
"I've never seen such a stupid saintess. I, the shopkeeper, will personally teach you."
The backyard of the fortune-telling shop.
The sun was shining brightly, and a few unnamed wildflowers were in full bloom, with butterflies fluttering about.
