this servant girl once worked in a big household and also boiled ginger soup for the master. Ginger soup takes one or two hours to boil. If it were at an inn, this servant girl would have no reason no..."If you're still angry, I can make amends..." Qin Luoyan saw that no one responded and opened her mouth awkwardly.

The old man seemed to have just come to his senses at this time. His throat rolled, and when he opened his mouth again, the shock had subsided, and his voice was calm as he said, "It's fine."

Qin Luoyan nodded, cupped her hands and bowed to the elder, "Should I help you reinstall this ankle ring"

"Put it back on" The old man hadn't spoken yet, but his attendant behind him was shocked.

The elder glared at the attendant, who immediately lowered his head and fell silent.

"No need, young master. Just return this ankle bracelet to me," the old man said. Qin Luoyan respectfully returned the ankle bracelet to him.

Wutong, dressed in men's clothing, just came out from the backyard. Qin Luoyan bowed to the old man and his group before turning back with Wutong to their seats for dinner.

After the elderly man and his entourage took the most luxurious room at the inn, they went to the backyard. As soon as they stepped out of the front hall, a servant excitedly approached them, "Master, we put in so much effort, traveled all over half of Nan Yue Kingdom without finding anyone who could open the Tianji Ring, but unexpectedly, we met someone here! It's truly as if heaven favors you!"

The old man was fiddling with a pair of leg rings in his hand, his eyes deep. This celestial mechanism ring was just a peculiar object to ordinary people, but for him, it was something that could restrain his martial arts. Over the past two years, because of this celestial mechanism ring, his meridians had reversed flow, and he had been hovering on the edge of life and death several times. Especially in the last month, he didn't even have the strength to walk.

Unexpectedly, it came easily.

"It took so much effort to remove that heavenly mechanism, and that young master actually wanted to put it back on for you! I almost had a heart attack just now." The attendant, in his twenties, was tall and sturdy with an honest face. Without outsiders around, his joy was written all over his face.

"Jìn Chǔ, you're still so easily riled up." Although he said this, the old man couldn't help but glance back.

Liu Luoyan and Wutong sat in the corner eating, as quiet as ever, not seeming to be affected by the interruption at all.

"My subordinates couldn't help themselves, they had been traveling all over the place for these past two years, all for this Tianji Huan. Who would have thought that the young master would simply flick his finger and unlock it My subordinates are just too excited." Jin Chu turned back to ask the brothers behind him, "What do you say, am I right Aren't you excited"

Everyone nodded, each face unable to hide a mixture of astonishment and excitement. Until now, they still felt a sense of unreality.

I originally thought it would take a lot of effort, but suddenly someone solved it effortlessly. This feeling is truly...

"Alright, Jin Chu, go check out these two's background." The elder retracted his gaze and pushed the wheelchair into the room.

"Yes!"

Night, stars are twinkling, moon and stars shine together.

When Qin Luo'yan and the other person returned to the backyard after finishing their meal, it was completely dark.

Wutong lit the candle in the room, and in the flickering candlelight, Qin Luoyan held a brush and paper, drawing something. Wutong leaned closer and looked at it, surprised for a moment, "Miss, what are you drawing"

"The weapon I just saw was amazing, so exquisite. I have to sketch it down quickly so that I can make one myself for fun sometime in the future." Qin Luoyan held up her drawing paper and blew on the ink.

"Miss, this is clearly jewelry, how can it be a weapon" Wutong didn't understand.

Qin Luoyan smiled faintly, her expression both mysterious and confident. "There's a crossbow hidden inside this anklet," she said, "and as long as the mechanism is triggered, it will shoot out short arrows." She then used her thumb to gesture, "Look, about this long."

“Ah…” Wutong exaggeratedly let out a low growl, “Miss, you aren’t joking, are you…”

Qin Luo'yan sighed, "Believe it or not, it's up to you. I can make one for you as self-defense. However, there's another mechanism here that I haven't figured out what it does. Unfortunately, it belongs to someone else, and I'm not comfortable researching it too much."

She sighed and carefully folded the painting up.

"Well, how come it's snowing again" Wutong walked to the window, just about to close it, when she suddenly saw a figure in the distance. She said with a puzzled expression, "These days, there are so many strange people around. In such heavy snow, someone is still walking around the yard."

Qin Luoyan glanced in that direction, her brows furrowed slightly. She then stood up and walked out, saying, "Wutong, I'll be back in a bit. You rest here first."

Before Wutong could say anything else, Qin Luoyan's steps were swift as she exited the room and in an instant stepped into the flying snow.

There are dozens of plum blossoms in the courtyard, blooming vibrantly. An elderly man stood by the plum tree, gazing at something unknown, his eyes seemed distant. Sensing someone approaching him, he stiffened momentarily before relaxing again.

"Old sir," Qin Luoyan walked over and smiled, standing beside him. "This snow is heavy, why not go inside to avoid it"

The old man turned back and bowed, “Little brother, didn't you avoid this heavy snow”

Qin Luo'yan was startled, "That's right, it's just snow."

If the heart is cold, how cold can the snow be

"On a day like this, with flying snow, the best thing to do is drink some warm wine. This old man just happens to have brought some good wine. If you don't mind, younger brother, let's share a few cups" The elder spoke with piercing eyes, which seemed out of place against his face creased with wrinkles.

Qin Luoyan nodded, and the old man immediately gestured from the second floor. After a while, Jin Chu moved a small square table to the side of the plum tree.

The elder personally lit the charcoal in the small stove, and then placed the iron liquor jug on top. After a while, the aroma of wine began to spread widely.

The crisp aroma of the wine invigorated her spirit. Qin Luoyan inhaled deeply, unable to help but exclaim, "Good wine!"

Once, whenever a weapon test was successful, all the brothers and sisters in the studio would go wild in the bar all night to celebrate. Those drunken revelries were still fresh in my memory, while she had become the most humble being in this feudal society.

"My young friend, you have a discerning palate. This wine of mine has been aged for ten years."

After a while, the old man took down his wine gourd and poured two cups of wine. He placed one cup before her. Just then, a plum blossom fell, landing in the cup and causing ripples to spread across its surface.

"So beautiful." The scene touched Qin Luoyan, causing her to smile softly. She set aside the cup of plum wine and held the other glass in both hands, downing it in one gulp.

She didn't know that her smile, falling into the elder's eyes, had drawn such astonishment.

The elder's hand holding the wine glass hesitated to put it down. He frowned, his gaze falling on Qin Luoyan's Adam's apple in her neck, his eyes filled with even more confusion. Obviously a man, how could he smile more beautifully than a woman by seven points

"Another one!" Qin Luoyan finished her drink and pushed the cup forward, but from the corner of her eye, she saw the old man's hand.

That hand, with distinct knuckles and elongated fingers, was unmarred by wrinkles or sagging skin.

This is not a pair of an elderly person's hands.
