Facing Qin Liuxi's words, Si Lengyue herself also felt a trace of uncertainty; was it the ancestors of the Si Family that first committed evil deeds, thus leading to today's consequences?
Seeing her silent, Qin Liuxi didn't disturb her and took the sugar figure handed over by the old man, glanced at it, and smilingly handed over five copper coins.
"That's too much," the old man only took three and handed the remaining two back.
"It's very well-made, worth it," Qin Liuxi said, holding the sugar figure's stick, "Old man, when heading home, don't take your usual path, and if you must, do not go at the end of the Hour of the Monkey."
The old man was startled.
But Qin Liuxi had already walked away with the sugar figure.
The old man shook his head, thinking it was just a young man joking with him.
Si Lengyue, having witnessed this, asked, "What's wrong with that old man? Why did you warn him like that?"
