Yun Qishen

Chapter 2228 Yan Cang

Mo Langqin looked at the task note in his hand and laughed coldly, "The first target of the task is a deaf man born on a yin year, yin month, yin day and yin hour."

Mo Ning adjusted the wristband on his wrist, looking like he couldn't wait to complete the task. "Let's look for someone first. What are you going to do if there is no one who meets the requirements? Find the person and make him deaf? Or choose a day to give birth to someone? Now is the Yin year and Yin month."

"We'll talk about it later." Mo Langqin raised his head and looked at the forest ahead. "I'll take care of this village ahead first, and you guys go look for other places. We'll meet here in three days."

"okay!"

In the blink of an eye, all the Mo family apprentices who had followed Mo Langqin disappeared. Mo Langqin then walked alone into the depths of the forest ahead.

In the evening, Mo Langqin, who was planning to use the power of the ghost beast to rest beside a tree, heard a sound of approaching footsteps.

"Why are you sleeping here? You'll get sick." It was a girl's voice, a little flustered but with a hint of joy.

"Don't worry about me." Mo Langqin didn't open his eyes. He didn't want to pay attention to this guy who suddenly appeared, nor was he curious why there was a little girl wandering alone in the forest.

The girl was holding a paper lantern with a candle as the wick. The light was not very bright, but it was enough to illuminate the girl's fair and tender face.

"But there are wolves in this forest at night. What if you get bitten? Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid of wolves." Mo Langqin raised his arms high, rested his head on his palms, leaned against the tree trunk with an indifferent attitude.

The girl was silent for a moment but did not leave. The candle flames crackled and burned, and the sound of wolves howling could be heard faintly in the woods. The girl stumbled and said, "I am from the village ahead. Do you want to come back with me? Come to my house and sleep?"

Mo Langqin still closed his eyes, "Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad person? Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

"There aren't so many bad people in the world. Since you don't appreciate it, forget it..." Although the girl said this, she was still reluctant to leave. In the end, she wanted to leave because the wolf howling in the forest became louder and louder. Before leaving, she even put the paper lantern in her hand at Mo Langqin's feet, "I'll leave this lamp for you. It's much darker here at night."

Mo Langqin slowly opened his eyes after listening to the girl's footsteps fading away. He didn't quite understand the girl's intention in approaching him and always felt that there must be something going on.

The howling of wolves became more and more frequent, and some wolves even came to Mo Langqin following the scent.

Mo Langqin met the lone wolf's green eyes. The next second, the lone wolf shrugged its ears with its teeth bared, turned around and left in disgrace.

The next morning, the breakfast stalls in the village were full of people. The busy Sun family couple also welcomed the customer who spent the most money at one time since they started their business.

"Give me ten bowls of noodles and ten steamed buns!" Mo Langqin said and threw 200 coins on the table.

"Ten..." The husband of the Sun family was a little surprised at first, but looking at the two hundred coins, he had to smile and agree, "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

After a while, ten bowls of noodles and ten steamed buns were served to Mo Langqin. He started to eat them with big mouthfuls, completely ignoring the surprised looks from other guests.

"Oh my god, this kid looks so weak, how can he eat so much! He has money on him, it doesn't look like he can't afford to eat."

"Maybe he got lost in the woods? He hasn't eaten in a few days?"

"Nonsense, there is only one main road in the forest. Besides, the forest is so small that it is impossible for passers-by to get lost, except for the wolves that make it dangerous to walk at night."

Amid the discussions of the people around him, Mo Langqin had quickly finished the food.

"Shopkeeper, give me ten more bowls!" Mo Langqin said, throwing money and waiting like before.

"Okay..." The Sun family's husband pushed his wife who was making pancakes, "Go cook noodles, hurry up. Look how hungry the child is. He's still so pale after eating for so long. Add a few more slices of meat to the noodles."

"Got it." The Sun family's wife was plump and kind-looking. She did not complain about her husband's instructions, but added more meat to the noodles and asked her husband to pass it over.

"It's you!"

A familiar girl's voice came into his ears from behind Mo Langqin.

Mo Langqin turned slightly and saw a girl in a blue dress approaching with his peripheral vision, "Do we know each other?"

The girl sat opposite Mo Langqin. She pointed at herself and said, "I am the one who gave you the lamp yesterday evening."

"do not remember."

Of course she remembered, but Mo Langqin didn't want to have anything to do with this girl. The girl stared at Mo Langqin's fair face for a while and then looked at the pile of empty bowls beside her, "Did you eat all these by yourself?"

"if not?"

"You eat a lot."

The Sun family's husband brought over five bowls of noodles. He smiled at Mo Langqin and said, "Little brother, here are your noodles. There are still a few bowls that need to be cooked for a while. Please wait a moment."

"Okay, store owner." Mo Langqin also smiled at the husband of the Sun family to show his friendliness.

His behavior made the girl sitting opposite him a little unhappy. She quickly said, "You didn't treat me like this yesterday. You didn't even look at me straight in the eye!"

"Really?" Mo Langqin didn't care about what the girl said and concentrated on eating noodles.

"Of course!" the girl continued, "Where is the lamp I gave you yesterday?"

"threw."

“Throw it away?!”

“Do I still need to hold it?”

"You!" The girl blushed with anger. Even though the atmosphere between the two of them was so bad, she still had no intention of staying away from Mo Langqin. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and said, "I really don't understand people like you."

"..." Mo Langqin didn't say anything else, just ate his noodles. Soon the other bowls of noodles he ordered were cooked and served.

"Little brother, your noodles are all ready. Do you need anything else?" The Sun family's husband picked up the empty bowl and asked Mo Langqin with a smile.

"Pack ten more pancakes. Thank you, store owner." After saying this, Mo Langqin threw another two hundred coins on the table.

"You gave me too much." Sun's husband was a honest man, and he quickly pushed back half of it.

"Not much. You gave me a lot of extra meat. It's only right that I give you more."

"Then...thank you, little brother. Come visit us often in the future."

After the two smiled at each other, Sun's husband went to pack the sesame cakes.

The girl slammed the table in dissatisfaction, and the noodle soup kept shaking with the vibration of the table. "I just can't understand why you are so nice to the store owner, but you are so indifferent to me. Don't I look as kind as the store owner?"

"Your intentions are not pure." Mo Langqin put down the empty bowl and quickly picked up another bowl of noodles.

The girl who stood up and leaned on the table blushed even more. She lowered her head and her mouth began to knot. "No... Impure? Not at all! I just... just want to get to know you! Make... make friends. Just make friends!"

"Don't you have any friends?" Mo Langqin replied coldly.

"What you said is very hurtful! Of course I have a lot of friends too!" The girl said it in a boastful manner, and Mo Langqin knew as soon as she heard it that she was not telling the truth.

"Then you don't need a friend like me. I'm full." Mo Langqin walked towards the packaged sesame cakes and turned to leave.

The girl hurriedly followed, "Wait a minute! You haven't told me your name yet!"

"Does it make sense?" Mo Langqin put the sesame cake into the storage ring on his hand. He still had no intention of paying attention to the girl and his attitude was still cold.

"That's basic courtesy, isn't it?"

The girl was impatient, and she walked quickly and stood in front of Mo Langqin.

Mo Langqin walked around her and continued walking forward, "But I don't want to get in touch with you. We just met by chance, so why would we know each other's names?"

"As the saying goes, the first time is strange, the second time is familiar. We have met twice, so it can't be considered a casual encounter!" The girl introduced herself directly, "My name is Yan Cang, you should tell me your name."
