The market place, where treasures are sold.

When Chen An arrived, it was still dawn and the treasure shop had not yet opened for business.

However, near the treasure shop, there are already many independent cultivators setting up stalls.

Some sell talismans, some sell elixirs, and some sell weapons.

Anything that can be bought at a treasure shop can also be bought at these stalls.

The only difference is that the ones sold at Treasure Shop are more expensive, but they come with after-sales guarantee.

These items sold at street stalls are relatively cheap, but there is a certain chance that you will buy defective products and get cheated.

Chen An had nothing to do, so he glanced at the goods displayed on the stalls from a distance to see if there was anything he was interested in buying.

When he swept to a towering tree, he saw Dabao and the old monk setting up a stall and selling spiritual fish.

Dabao is very diligent. As soon as he sees a monk passing by, he will shout to attract customers.

Chen An took a look at the spirit fish on the stall. It was quite fresh, plump and tender. He thought that he could buy one to make soup or steam when he returned.

Spirit fish is good for women's skin, so he wanted to make his three wives and concubines' skin smoother.

“Crack—”

Suddenly, a sound came from the treasure shop behind him.

Chen An thought that the treasure shop was open.

But when I looked back, I found that the door of the treasure shop was still closed, and the only open window was a window on the second floor above the door.

Looking up, I saw a woman in plain white brocade standing in front of the window, her white hands resting on the windowsill, her proud semi-circular curve slightly raised, her pretty face facing the sky, and she was closing her eyes and taking a deep breath of the fresh air outside the window.

This woman is very beautiful, as beautiful as the three wives and concubines in the family.

But the beauty is in different styles.

Song Huaying is lively.

Gu Xinyue is aloof.

Wen Zhiyun is charming.

The woman in front of the window upstairs gave people a kind of pure and flawless beauty that could not tolerate the slightest taint, but at the same time people couldn't help but want to defile her.

Chen An was moved.

He didn't expect that there was such a beautiful female cultivator hiding in this small bamboo forest.

In an instant.

The desire to take a concubine hidden deep in his heart began to stir again.

Hmm? As he watched, Chen An suddenly frowned.

He always felt that the fairy in front of the window upstairs looked a little familiar.

Search it in your mind.

Keep matching.

Finally, a name flashed through my mind.

——Shen Qingyi.

What the hell?

The charming beauty in front of the window, is she the murderous female disciple of Xuanhuang Sect? Chen An thought for a moment that he had seen it wrong.

In his impression, Shen Qingyi's upper body was almost flat, and looked inferior to many men with slightly more developed pectoral muscles.

But now, her body looks no less beautiful than that of the proud concubine Wen Zhiyun at home. It is perfect in every way and can be described as graceful.

It seems that when Shen Qingyi usually appears in black tights, she is mostly wrapped in cloth belts.

In order to facilitate their own actions.

Otherwise, the burden on the upper body would be too great, and even swinging the sword would be inconvenient.

By the way, I don't know what attributes can be improved after having sex with Shen Qingyi? Chen An was thinking about these things in his heart while looking at Shen Qingyi, who was full of femininity standing in front of the window upstairs.

At this time, Shen Qingyi felt that she was being watched. She looked down and found Chen An staring at her motionlessly. She frowned slightly, turned around, left the window and disappeared.

When Chen An saw this, he thought to himself that something was wrong. He seemed to have left a bad impression on this female foundation-building expert.

“Crack—”

"Huh?"

"Master Chen, you're here so early?"

As soon as Manager Liu of the Treasure Shop opened the door, he saw Chen An standing tall in front of the door and couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

Chen An greeted with a smile: "Good morning, Shopkeeper Liu."

"Morning, Master Chen."

Shopkeeper Liu responded politely, and then said, "Master Chen, the person sent by Zhenbao Pavilion to check the accounts didn't come so early. You came too early."

"It's better to come early than late. After all, if you miss this time, you will have to wait another half a year."

"That's right."

Shopkeeper Liu nodded.

The Treasure Shop was doing good business today. Soon after it opened, people started coming in to patronize the shop.

Shopkeeper Liu is extremely busy.

No one spoke. Chen An had nothing to do, so he wandered around by himself to see if the Treasure Shop had any new items to sell.

"Benefactor, it's you!"

When he walked to a shelf near the gate, Chen An heard a female voice behind him.

Looking back, he found that it was the female cultivator rescued by him and Shen Qingyi that day.

After some communication.

Chen An knew a little bit about female cultivators.

The female cultivator is named Pan Hui, and she is a low-level female cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining.

I have a husband who is at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

But because she couldn't afford the rent, her husband was taken to the battlefield by the Bamboo Leaf Gang two months ago.

He has not returned home yet and his life or death is unknown.

"By the way, Master Chen, you came so early, you probably haven't had breakfast yet. I made a pot of spiritual fish porridge and brought it over. If you don't mind, can we eat together later?"

Pan Hui raised the casserole in her hand and invited enthusiastically.

Chen An wanted to say no, but before he could open his mouth to decline, Pan Hui in front of him suddenly walked quickly towards the stairs.

"Qingyi, I specially made a pot of spiritual fish porridge for you. Let's find a place to sit down and eat!"

Pan Hui said with a smile on her face to Shen Qingyi who had just come down from upstairs.

Chen An looked over and his eyes fell on Shen Qingyi.

At this time, Shen Qingyi had changed into a black tight-fitting outfit, and her long hair that was originally scattered on her shoulders was tied up high. Compared with the appearance just seen in front of the window, she was less feminine and more heroic.

"Master Chen, come over and eat with us!"

After Pan Hui took Shen Qingyi to find a seat and sat down, she immediately waved and shouted to Chen An.

Chen An responded: "Yes, I am here."

This is an opportunity to get close to Shen Qingyi, I must seize it.

After all, being able to get to know a great foundation-building expert will be of great benefit to your future life.

After sitting down for a while, the three of them ate and chatted.

It was said that there were three of them chatting, but it was basically Pan Hui chatting back and forth with the other two.

Chen An and Shen Qingyi did not have a direct conversation.

During this time, Chen An curiously asked how their relationship suddenly became so good? They didn't even know each other half a month ago.

Later, he learned from Pan Hui that in order to repay Shen Qingyi's help, Pan Hui specifically found out that Shen Qingyi lived in Zhenbaohang, and then came to Zhenbaohang every day to bring Shen Qingyi food and drinks, repaying Shen Qingyi as much as possible within her ability.

As time went by, Pan Hui learned that Shen Qingyi hated evil and often went out to punish evildoers.

So, she took advantage of the fact that she had lived in the bamboo forest for many years to tell Shen Qingyi which evil people there were in the bamboo forest.

With her assistance, Shen Qingyi's efficiency in punishing evildoers increased significantly.

As time went by, the two people who had common topics got along very well and became good friends.

"Master Chen, the public security of the Bamboo Leaf Gang is so good now, and that is all thanks to me, Pan Hui."

Pan Hui said with pride.

Chen An praised politely: "I see. I think the residents of the entire bamboo forest and the patrol team of the Bamboo Leaf Gang should thank Brother Pan."

He said this, but he couldn't help but worry about Pan Hui in his heart.

Pan Hui's approach is good, but it is very easy to offend people, be hated by them, and make enemies with them.

To put it bluntly, it would not be surprising if Pan Hui died on the street one day.

After all, her actions have directly threatened the personal safety of those evil people.

However, Chen An was reluctant to say these words as it would easily offend people and be a thankless task.

Because Shen Qingyi needs a whistleblower like Pan Hui, and Pan Hui also needs to use this method to make friends with Shen Qingyi, who is a powerful foundation-building expert.

This is a mutually beneficial way of interacting that has both advantages and disadvantages for both of them.

As an outsider, Chen An felt that there was no need for him to get involved, lest he end up in trouble.

But in the final analysis, this is just his own personal opinion.

Even in troubled times, not everyone likes to stand idly by and not get involved. There are always people who like to help when they see injustice.

Maybe Pan Hui doesn't care whether she will offend anyone or not, and just wants to contribute to the public security of Zhuyelin.

Gou Xiuxiu is not suitable for everyone.
