I turned around to leave, but when I reached the doorway, I heard Sima Rong making the gears on the wooden person creak in the courtyard. It was the only desolate sound in the courtyard, I could not restrain myself and turned my head around to take a look. Under the dancing moonlight, in that distracted moment, I saw the silhouette of Small Round Face crouching beside Sima Rong’s wheelchair.

She supported her head and silently watched Sima Rong fiddling with those soulless wooden people. A human and a ghost lingered together peacefully and was amazingly well-suited.

As soon as I blinked, Small Round Face’s silhouette disappeared once again. In that moment just now, it was like I encountered an illusion.

I looked at the clueless Sima Rong and said to him like I was possessed: “In the future, don’t you move house.” Sima Rong raised his head to look at me, while Mo Qing was beside me looking puzzled. I was unable to explain it and could only say, “In short… Don’t move your house. It’s just in case, I can’t find you…”

When Wan Lu Sect wanted to find someone, it would not be impossible for them to find. I was only afraid that Small Round Face would not be able to find him.

Sima Rong laughed and waved goodbye to me: “Leave now, I won’t move house.”

Stepping out the door, I asked Mo Qing: “Before, I’ve never heard that West Mountain Lord is fond of the Mechanical Magic Technique. When did he started to really focus on these things?”

“Nan Yue Cult studied Mechanical Magic Technique; when Yue Zhu was living here, she left many little gadgets behind. After Yue Zhu died, the gadgets were covered in dust and falling apart. In order to repair those things, he immediately practiced Mechanical Magic Technique. In these recent years, he actually cultivated this technique much better than the average person.”

I acknowledged once and said nothing more.
