Chapter 63 The Mysterious Old Man
Luju Town is the busiest at night, Hiiragi Yu wanted to go out to play, Bo Yan agreed, she asked Xu Bo to call Zuo Shiyun together, Xu Bo gave Hiiragi Yu a grateful look, turned around and knocked on his lady's door.

When Zuo Shiyun came out, his eyes were still swollen like walnuts. After opening the door, he saw Hiiragi Yu, turned his head and wiped his eyes, and said in a grumpy tone, "What are you doing?"

Before Xu Bo could speak, Hiiragi tilted his head and showed a pretty face, "Going out to play?"

Unlike the imperial capital, there is also a curfew. The night in Luju Town is the most lively. Not only is everyone not forbidden to go out, but there is also a night market, and some people will even play until dawn.

Although Zuo Shiyun is a member of the demon tribe, this is actually the first time she has left the demon world, and naturally she has never been to Luju Town, so she is quite curious, but she and Yu Yu...

"Bo Yan is going too, you can come too!" Hiiragi Feather reminded casually.

Zuo Shiyun was startled, then hesitated symbolically, "Okay then."

Just like when he came from the capital of Xiyue Kingdom before, Zuo Shiyun stuck to Bo Yan almost every step of the way, and Hiiragi Yu had a wild nature, running around as soon as he went out, and in the end it was Uncle Xu who was taking care of her, saving him from getting lost .

Hiiragi Yu and Xu Bo walked slowly behind with a bunch of things in their arms.

Boyan and Zuo Shiyun walked in front, but it seemed that he might not have any interest in strolling, let alone appreciate it, and just walked around as a routine.

Hiiragi Yu's bosom was full of newly bought things, Xu Bo saw that she bought too much, so he took the initiative to help her get some.

How could she have money as a little demon, and Bo Yan paid for it. At the beginning, every time she wanted to buy something, she would drag him over, and then Bo Yan handed her his money bag directly to her.

The town of Luju also uses human money, because the people who do business are basically human monks, and the demons mainly look for good things to pawn, and get money for eating, drinking and having fun.

Therefore, except for places like pawnshops and auctions, the buyers are almost all demons.

Hiiragi opened a bag of fried beans, threw a few of them into her mouth, and bit them, almost knocking out her teeth.

She swallowed it whole, then turned her head slightly and asked Xu Bo who was walking beside her, "What is the relationship between Bo Yan and your young lady?"

Uncle Xu turned his head to look at her, and said with a gentle smile, "Young Master Bo Yan and Miss are childhood sweethearts, and the two parties have a marriage contract."

Hiiragi Yu didn't change his face, but hissed immediately in his heart, Boyan actually lied to her?She is obviously a fiancée, but she says she is a friend she has known since childhood...

What she is most curious about is, what does Boyan want from her?

Hiiragi Yu was thinking about it, but suddenly she was hit by someone behind her, it was quite hard, she fell a few steps forward, and then was supported by an old hand.

The hand was shriveled, with bulging veins, and some inconspicuous age spots on it, as well as a lot of calluses. The calluses were mainly concentrated on the fingers, but there were no wounds. It didn't look like it was done rough work.

She looked up and saw the old man's head full of silver hair, disheveled and messy, but there were no dust or patches on the hair and clothes.

When Hiiragi came back to her senses, the old man was also staring at her carefully.

"Oh, thank you very much." Hiiragi Yu hurriedly stood firm, and leaned down towards him to express his gratitude.

But the old man smiled and waved his hands, and instead said: "I think we are very destined."

"Really? That's not a coincidence." Hiiragi Yu also laughed.

Hiiragi Yu saw a small stall in front of and behind the old man, it was very simple, it was only padded with a piece of rag, and the things placed on it were also strangely shaped, strangely colored big stones, a few tattered books with the covers worn off , a pile of rusty weapons.

"Miss Hiiragi, are you okay?" Uncle Xu came over to Hiiragi Yu after finishing the matter over there. It turned out that a group of urchins on the street were playing around, and they didn't pay attention to the road and bumped into Hiiragi Yu.

Uncle Xu brought them over to apologize to Hiiragi, who repeatedly waved his hands and said it's okay, just be careful when playing.

She didn't pay much attention to these things, but was curious about the old man's stall in front of her.

"What are you selling here?" Hiiragi Yu squatted by the booth, picked up a book and flipped through it. It was full of ancient characters that she couldn't understand. The fonts were very strange, not characters she had ever seen.

"What kind of writing is this? I don't know a single word."

"This is the Poro language, by the way, here is this for you." The old man went around to the back of his booth, rummaged through the pile of knives, guns, sticks and swords for a while, found a sword that looked a bit thin, and handed it to Hiiragi Yu .

This sword was neither long nor short, but it was covered with thick copper rust and sludge, so it couldn't see its original appearance at all.

"How long has this been buried underground?"

The old man smiled, "Soon, maybe a few thousand years."

"Thousands of years?" Hiiragi Yu carefully observed the sword in amazement, temporarily put aside the things in his arms, and tried to pull out the sword, but he couldn't pull it out at all.

"How can this be used? It can't be pulled out."

"Fire! Burn it with fire. In short, you should study it yourself. Anyway, this is your own sword."

"My sword?" Hiiragi Yu burst into laughter. The temperament of this old man is like that of a hermit in novels, an expert who gives secret treasures. She doesn't think it's just a coincidence, "How do you say that?"

"Don't talk too much, take it and leave quickly, and take away the book you just touched."

"The book I touched...?"

Hiiragi looked at the book in her hand hesitantly. She picked it up because it was on the top. Could it be that she really needed it?

This old man...is a bit mysterious?Is it really that powerful?She doesn't have such a character in the plot.

"Wait a minute……!"

At the beginning, the old man pretended to be a fairy, but now he has shown his true colors, frowning and enduring Hiiragi Yu's chatter.

"I can't understand the words in this book, sir, can you translate for me?"

"What should I do with this sword? I can't even pull it out. How can I use it?"

Hiiragi Yu followed the old man and kept asking around him, making him almost want to cover his ears.

"I worship you as my teacher, okay?"

When she said this, the old man froze when his back turned to her to pack his things. Hiiragi Yu looked at him strangely, and after a long while the old man turned around: "What you said is true?"

"Of course, it's still fake? You look so good, I earned you as my teacher!"

The old man's expression was a little strange, like crying or laughing, startled Hiiragi Yu, he hung his head, his shoulders trembled slightly, Hiiragi Yu didn't know why, and was a little scared by his reaction.

She just said casually, why did the old man react so much?

"Your Excellency, these items..." Uncle Xu stood next to Yu Yu at some point, and bowed to the old man, looking a little wary, "They all look extraordinary."

The old man glanced at him, and the excited expression just now seemed to have subsided a bit, and he said with a neutral expression: "It's just a bunch of junk that no one wants."
