Chapter 271 I Have Something To Ask



But now that he knew how strong Song Yan really was, so he couldn\'t help but ask.

" Saving Fu Rong didn\'t need me to intervene," answered Song Yan calmly striding towards the small stall of vegetables in front of a house. " I left the entire thing in the hands of Fang Yanli, she scared those two thugs away, I didn\'t have to personally intervene in the matter which is why I didn\'t suffer from any sort of consequences. However, dealing with two scaredy cats of thugs and then dealing with what is inside that tomb, is completely different. I have to intervene in between that thing and those idiots because there is no, that thing will be scared of Fang Yanli." Then she paused and looked at the group that loudly chattering and clicking photos of the village, some even seemed to be live streaming as they pointed at the three bowls of blood and laughed raucously. " And I believe that this is something that called upon themselves, so young and still want to play tomb raiders like they know what they are getting themselves into, so I can\'t really help them."

Turning her head she shook it left and right lightly. " And I didn\'t come here to play the hero anyway." After saying so, she walked to the stall that was set up in front of a small thatched house and crouched down in front of the mother and daughter who were selling the vegetables. " Hello sister, how are you selling the tomatoes?"

The young woman next to the old granny raised her head and looked at Song Yan, she took a double take at her clothes and then looked at Fu Yu Shen standing behind Song Yan and her expression turned sullen as she snappishly said, " We don\'t sell our vegetables to outsiders." Then without saying anything to Song Yan, she lowered her head and started to sprinkle water on the vegetables to keep them fresh.

Seeing that the young woman was actually ignoring her, Song Yan wasn\'t upset with her. Instead, she walked a bit closer to the stall and lowered her voice as she said, " I know, you must be tired because of the constant noise and ruckus from the city folks who came to see the tomb ever since it was discovered but I am not here for the tomb. I am looking for someone actually, a young girl to be precise …just wanted to know if she used to live here or not."

This time the young woman\'s expression was a bit better as she looked at her, in fact, Song Yan was sure that the young woman was looking at her with pity. " You are not the first one who came looking for a young girl …many people have been looking for their young ones but all I can say is that you should go back, if your child got lost here ..then she is probably dead by now."

Song Yan\'s eyes flashed before she smiled a little and then fished out her cellphone from her pocket as she tapped on it before turning it around for the young woman to see, " and what about this girl …did you see her living here?"

On the screen was the photo of a young woman, with her delicate features and sickly charm who else could it be but Wu Genji?

The young woman frowned but before she could even say anything, the old granny\'s eyes widened and she shivered before she started to yammer away, because her speech wasn\'t clear Song Yan couldn\'t understand what she was saying but what she did understand was that the old granny reacted like this because of Wu Genji, she hurriedly put the phone away and only then did the old woman turned silent as she looked at her granddaughter and said something in her ear.

" I know, granny.." the young woman patted her grandmother and then turned to look at Song Yan. " Can you wait here for a few minutes I will help my grandmother inside the house and then we can talk?"

"Sure." Song Yan could see that the old granny was very agitated because of the picture and didn\'t stop the young woman from taking her grandmother inside the house. She was prepared for the young girl to bail on her but surprisingly, she saw the woman stepping out of the house as she closed the door behind her after five minutes.

She climbed down the stairs of the house and looked up at Song Yan before saying, " What do you want to know?"

" Everything," replied Song Yan as she led the woman to the small tea and snack shop that was at the other end of street. " I would like to know everything about the young girl, there is something that I want to know about her."

As the two strolled inside the tea shop the young woman looked a bit tentative as she asked, " Are you from the Wu family?"

" No, I am not," said Song Yan before taking a seat on an empty chair. " I am here because something about the daughter of the Wu family struck me as ominous to me. If you can help me out a little then I am sure that I can reward you generously."

The young woman\'s expression changed as she said, " I don\'t have any need for monetary help…"

" No, not monetary help, I saw that your grandmother seemed to like this place and don\'t want to move from here…" she pulled out a talisman from her pocket and placed it on the table as she said, " What if I say that I can put a stop to your grandmother habit of slicing her hand every night?"
