Chapter 442 Bai Qin
Xia Tian wanted to ask who the visitor was, but Qiu didn't want to say more. He just said that he would prepare food and notify other people in the tribe.
"Xiaoye, is this your future partner?" A clear voice came from the cave.
There was no need to ask. The person who came opened the door curtain and stood upright against the wall of the cave.
He was wearing a special robe whose fabric was indistinguishable, his long white hair was tied behind his head, his narrow eyebrows were drooping, and his gentleness revealed a cold aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time.
There was just a translucent jade cane at his side, as if to remind her that the owner of the cane was unable to walk.
Combining what Si Yuan had said to her before, Xia Tian easily guessed that this should be the elusive witch doctor from Dongfang City, right?
Si Yuan followed out from behind, glanced at Xia Tian and Si Ye who had returned, with no expression on his face, and whispered, "Since you're back, come in quickly. We've been waiting for you for a long time. The witch doctor has some business in the city, so it's better to resolve whatever it is quickly and let him go back quickly."
"Are you so busy then? The elders in the city are supporting us. A little witch doctor like me has no business doing that." Bai Qin smiled as he spoke, but there was an unmeltable indifference in his eyes.
However, he didn't refuse Si Yuan's words out of respect and raised his chin towards the inside. "Alright, come in. Yuan has been talking about you guys these past few days. He just talks tough, but he's actually very worried."
As he spoke, he picked up the crutch beside him with a somewhat stiff movement and moved into the cave with difficulty. It seemed that one of his legs was completely unable to exert strength below the knee, and although the other leg could support him, it seemed unable to exert strength either.
Si Yuan and Si Ye on the side seemed to pretend not to see it, and seemed to be used to it, and did not intervene.
Xia Tian saw all this and silently made her own guesses in her mind.
When I walked into the cave, I didn't see any major changes inside, and there were no signs of anyone sleeping on the kang. I must have been sleeping in the cave next door during this period.
However, no one has lived here for a few days, and there is no obvious dust anywhere. It is obvious that someone must have been cleaning the cave during this period.
No one else would come here, so it is now clear who cleaned it.
They walked into the cave and sat down. No one spoke, as if they were waiting for the other to speak first.
The three of them were acquaintances, but now they are like strangers.
With Xia Tian being a complete outsider, the atmosphere on the scene was really awkward.
Finally, Bai Qin spoke first, "Well, we finally meet after all these years, and there's such a cute little female here. Can you guys stop being so awkward?"
"Awkward?" Si Ye said after the awkward atmosphere was broken. "I don't have anything to say. If you want to know who it is, you should ask him first."
Everything he said was pointing at Si Yuan.
What Xia Tian knew now was different from what they knew, so it was not appropriate for her to interrupt. She wanted to leave but was stopped by Bai Qin at the door, so she could only stay in disappointment.
"Since you're back safely, you should know what happened." Si Yuan's tone was calm.
But to say this is to admit that he did have his own selfish motives when he asked Xia Tian to take Si Ye to that place.
"It's precisely because I know what happened that I want to know more..." Si Ye raised his head with a cold look in his eyes.
