Night Demon

Chapter 121 The Weird Old Man
Their transaction had just concluded, and the old man didn't show the slightest expression to her because Yueli was the big buyer.

He was back to being as careless as before.

On that wrinkled face, it seemed that even if the sky was about to fall, it would not be able to arouse the slightest emotion in his heart.

Yue Li was taken aback by the old man's answer, but soon, she understood something.

Grandpa Xiong gave her a book of hundreds of treasures of medicinal materials, which was out of print ten thousand years ago. There are many records in it, which are rare medicinal materials that have long been extinct in Tianqi Continent.

Therefore, it is normal for the old man not to know him.

Yueli recovered her expression in an instant, showed a slight smile, and said jokingly, "This thing looks like a potato no matter how you look at it. Could it be a mutation of a potato? I just don't know, if it is fried and eaten, will it be the same as a potato?" smell."

After finishing speaking, Yueli's expression immediately changed. In front of her eyes, she seemed to have a plate of fried potatoes, salivating and drooling.

Her sudden expression worried the people around her. She would suddenly swallow the potato-like thing in one gulp.

"The little girl wants it, so you can take it! You don't need to pay gold coins."

That thing was just picked by him by accident, he put it away as it seemed strange, and it was of no use to him.

There was finally a trace of emotion on the old man's face. Seeing Yueli's expression, he suddenly felt a little favored. Many years ago, his granddaughter also liked to show this expression.

But... alas...

The old man sighed secretly in his heart, this girl could actually arouse the emotions he had been immersed in for decades, and reminded him suddenly of his granddaughter who had been missing for more than 50 years.

granddaughter……

Suddenly, the old man's heart skipped a beat. In front of him, this girl who looked very much like his granddaughter was his only relative. The granddaughter whom he loved so much disappeared without a trace under his protection.

For so many years, he has traveled all over the Tianqi Continent, but there is no news, not even a trace of confusion.

His heart had long since died, gray and without ups and downs.

"Really? Then I, thank the old man for the gift."

After Yueli thanked her with a smile on her face, she stretched out her hand to pick up the black potato, and in an instant, the black potato disappeared in her hand, and she tightened it into the interspatial ring.

Hehe, even if the old man wanted to go back on his word, she would never take it out if it was in her ring.

The item was in hand, Yue Li was about to stand up and want to leave, but was suddenly stopped by the old man...

"Wait a minute." Yueli stood up, waking him who was immersed in memories, and he shouted subconsciously.

The old man stood up slowly, his cloudy eyes stared closely at Yueli's beautiful face, the wrinkled face twitched slightly, as if trying to hold back something...

When Ye Phantom and Ye Phantom brothers saw this, their expressions turned icy cold, and they put up their whole bodies on guard, making moves to protect Yueli at any time.

Although this old man seemed to be harmless, even Ye Phantom, who was a fighting saint, could not detect his strength.

Then, he is definitely an unfathomable peak powerhouse.

Ignoring the two powerful auras around Yueli, the old man was throbbing for a while before he asked in a low voice, "Little girl, forgive me for taking the liberty, but I want to ask, what is your grandmother's name? "

Yue Li was taken aback for a moment, and then, her face was full of black lines, looking at the old man's expression, he was not looking for his wife, was he?
"Old gentleman, I'm sorry, I don't know their names." Based on the fact that he gave away the medicinal materials before, Yueli still answered his question very gently. She really didn't know the name of the empress dowager of the Zi family How could it be possible for their younger generation to know, not to mention, she was a piece of trash that the Zi family had long since abandoned.

And, the biological mother of her body, Qin Youlan's natal family, has never been heard of.

Qin Youlan's identity has always been a mystery in the Zi family's royal family. She only knows her name, and she has never mentioned her natal family.

Maybe, even Zi Qinghan didn't know her origin. Back then, when he was practicing in the deep forest of the devil prison, he accidentally rescued her, and then, when she had nowhere to go, he brought her into the palace. Those who fell in love after getting along.

Hearing this, the old man showed disappointment on his face, and he seemed to be getting older.

Seeing this, Yue Li suddenly couldn't bear it, she said suddenly, "I only know the name of my biological mother, her name is Qin Youlan."

Surname Qin?

The old man's turbid eyes suddenly lit up, his lips trembled, and he asked, "Then, where is your mother now, can you take me to see her now?"

"I'm sorry, old sir, I can't take you there, because my biological mother died when I was born."

Yueli's words made the old man see the sun's face for the first time, and suddenly, darkness appeared again.

His gaze no longer fell on anyone, but instead, he looked into the distance, or in other words, although his gaze fell into the distance, there was no central point inside, but he was immersed in his memories.

He murmured softly, "My granddaughter, I lost her. It has been 50 years. I lost her for 50 years. It is my grandpa who is useless. After such a long time, I still haven't lost her." Can you find her, Xin'er, where are you? Grandpa, I'm going to see your grandma soon, if you don't show up again, how can grandpa have the face to go to your grandma?"

The old man's cloudy eyes could not shed tears for a long time, and his face was full of grief, Yue Li couldn't bear to see it.

She has never been a woman who can't bear it, but this time, her heart is tightly clenched.

Severely suppressed the emotions in her heart, in order not to let this weird old man continue to influence her.

She stepped up and hurriedly left the place full of street stalls. She had already bought what she needed, and because of the old man, she got a plant that was a surprise to her.

Ye Phantom frowned slightly, and glanced at the old man with a pensive look on her face, then quickly chased after Yueli's back.

Ye Phantom and Cheng Fei and Li Rui, who had been following them silently, also followed them together.

After the old man regained his mind, Yueli and his party had long since disappeared.

He quickly put everything into the space ring, and the old figure instantly disappeared on the spot without a trace.

When the five of Yueli returned to the other courtyard, she went directly to the small courtyard where she lived.

She drove Ye Phantom who was following her out, and after admonishing him, she slammed the door behind her back.

However, she stayed inside for two whole days and two nights, without taking a step out of the room, and Ye Phantom had no choice but to live in the side room next door to her.

On the third day, when Yueli opened the door, she looked tired and pale, and she knew it was caused by excessive energy usage.

Cheng Fei and Li Rui, who were ordered by Ye Phantom to guard the door, saw her look, and hurriedly informed the kitchen to prepare the meals and bring up the stewed tonic that the master had ordered before.

After two days without eating anything, Yueli was really hungry, and her stomach kept protesting to her.

In the past two days, she has been refining the elixir, which consumes a lot of energy.

During the refining process, although she took a few pills to restore energy, the energy was consumed just now, and now she doesn't even have the strength to stand up.

However, wearing clothes that were wet with sweat and air-dried by body temperature for two days was really uncomfortable to wear. She took a rebound elixir, gritted her teeth hard, stood up, and walked to the hot spring bath behind the inner room.
