The blue-faced fox paused, the image of those calm eyes flashing through his mind. "Business comes first."
······
Completely unaware that they had escaped disaster, Mo Lan and her servant leisurely ate breakfast and went out for a stroll again.
Life in Qinglong Village was not easy, and no matter how much Hua Yifei loved his daughter, his private savings were limited.
After buying some necessities, there wasn't much left.
As for the things in my own Mustard Seed Space, it's too early to take them out now.
Mo Lan sighed.
If you want to have enough to eat and drink, you have to work hard to increase your income.
The barter fair continued, and Mo Lan went twice, picking up some small items along the way.
As she passed a blacksmith shop, Mo Lan immediately noticed the wolf head mask hanging on the wall.
Especially the two sharp wolf fangs at the corners of his mouth, which gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
"Uncle, how much is that mask?"
"That wolf king mask, ten taels of silver." The shirtless man glanced at Mo Lan and her servant and spoke in a deep, muffled voice.
"Uncle, can you make it cheaper? We'll offer eight taels of silver." Seeing that the young lady was rarely interested in something, Hua Bao immediately stepped forward to bargain.
“Young lady, this mask was made based on the Silver Wolf King of Yunmu Mountain. The craftsmanship is intricate, and ten taels of silver is already very cheap.”
"Pfft~, what you said is really interesting, it's like you've seen the Silver Wolf King." Hua Bao covered her mouth, her tone sarcastic.
"I haven't seen it myself, but my master has. It was also handcrafted by my master." The blacksmith paused for a moment before trying to explain.
"But we've never seen it before, so how do we know if it really looks like it? So, sir, could you sell it to us for a lower price?"
Thanks to Hua Bao's tireless efforts, Mo Lan received eight taels of silver and a silver wolf mask.
Seeing the little girl's expectant look, Mo Lan curled her lips and reached out to rub her head.
"Well done."
When I saw this mask, I couldn't help but think of that blue-faced fox.
The cold eyes beneath the mask, once they were being stared at, felt like the dead of winter, chilling and piercing.
After staying in Ye County for four days, Mo Lan returned home.
As soon as the carriage left the city, it was once again targeted.
Mo Lan sat in the carriage, wiping the silver wolf mask.
The gaze from behind followed me like a shadow.
The shadowy figures disappeared once they entered Qinglong Village's territory.
Back in the mountain stronghold, Mo Lan began tinkering with the things she had collected, all of which she had bought at the barter market. After modifying them, she used them as self-defense tools.
That morning, Hua Bao ran in with a panicked expression, "Young Miss, something terrible has happened! The people from White Tiger Cliff are carrying betrothal gifts up the mountain to present the betrothal gifts!"
"Finally, I couldn't hold back anymore."
Mo Lan curled her lips, clapped her hands, changed into her dark black outfit, and walked towards the council hall.
From afar, one could hear hearty laughter coming from the hall.
"The council chamber is really lively today!"
With a soft laugh, Mo Lan appeared before everyone, bowed to them, and looked at her father in the main seat!
"I heard someone offered me a marriage proposal, so I wanted to come and see!"
Hua Yifei looked at his daughter who had suddenly appeared, especially at her black outfit, and was taken aback. "Lan'er isn't feeling well, why isn't she resting?"
Although he looks quite energetic now, who knows if he might faint in a moment?
Old Man Hua knew exactly what kind of girl his daughter was.
Before Mo Lan could speak, Chang Liang, who was standing behind Hu Biao, spoke up first.
