Wasn’t it just ten thousand crystal stones? She didn’t care much for them. It was fine as long as those items were useful.

When she thought to this point, she immediately felt like she was some kind of rich and extravagant person.

“You Yue, the fact that you are able to take out so many crystal stones shows that you don’t lack these things at all. Since this is the case, it would be better for you not to go and look for him. To be able to hang out with Boatman and even control his boats means that it’s definitely not anything average.” Guo Yin Da said sincerely.

Sima You Yue understood that he was afraid that she would look for Helmsman Tuo and argue with him and end up offending such a powerful person, ending up on the losing end.

“Uncle Guo, I understand.” She smiled at Guo Yin Da and smiled. She thought about how she was still rather good at reading people and the people she journeyed with weren’t bad at all.

Following which, SIma You Yue asked him a few more questions about Rabbit Ear Mountain. She asked him things like which areas contained more herbs and things like that. His reply was similar to what she had heard before.

When she mentioned this, Guo Yin Da couldn’t help but sigh.

“Uncle Guo, did you encounter some kinds of difficulties?” Sima You Yue asked. She saw that the Guo clansmen were all looking at her warily as she scratched her ear, saying, “Earlier on, I saw that you guys had worry written all over your faces and you sighed the moment I talked about the northern mountains so I just wanted to ask. If it’s not convenient to talk about it, it’s fine as well.”

In any case, this had nothing to do with her. It wouldn’t affect her whether or not they told her. She merely saw that they were pretty decent and thought to ask.

That’s not right. Once they told her about it, she might even soften and help them out.

When she thought about this, she suddenly hoped that they wouldn’t tell her.

“Sigh…” Guo Yin Da sighed again, “it’s not that we are unwilling to tell you guys. It’s just that there’s no point in telling you. It might even bring you trouble. Once we arrive at Rabbit Ear Mountain, we will go our separate ways and this troublesome matter will naturally not follow you.”

When he said this, it ended up causing Han Miao Shuang and the others to empathise with them instead.

“I heard you guys talk about something to do with the extermination of some clan, is it that serious?”

At this moment, the Guo clansmen fell solemn. Han Miao Shuang knew that she had asked them something that she shouldn’t have, and felt a little sheepish.

The initially harmonious atmosphere turned a little awkward.

“It’s nothing much, actually. It has to do with our clan. It will bring you trouble if we tell you.” Guo Yin Da laughed, “However, this might end up being an opportunity for us, so it may not be as serious.”

“That would be good.” Sima You Yue casually asked a few other questions and the situation passed just like that.

Halcyon was extremely speedy if not because Sima You Yue wanted him to be steady, causing him to slow down a bit, they would probably have reached Rabbit Ear Mountain in just one day.

Even if that was the case, the Guo clansmen were extremely shocked at Halcyon’s speed.

Sima You Yue didn’t explain too much either. When they arrived at Rabbit Ear Mountain, the Guo clansmen said a few words before departing.

“These people really aren’t bad. They’re leaving so quickly because they’re afraid of bringing trouble upon us.” Huang Ying YIng said a little emotionally.

They could all tell. The Guo clansmen were probably not some huge clan, they were probably just a small clan living on the edge of the little island. Based on the news that Sima You Yue had seen before, clans like theirs were probably attached to other more powerful clans.

When she thought about this, she sighed. All the places where people inhabited had rivers and lakes. They weren’t even able to escape a place like The Lost Place!

“They really aren’t bad. I got the scarlet bees to follow them. If it’s something small, we should be able to help them out. If it impacts our mission…” Sima You Yue didn’t finish her sentence but everyone understood.

They came here in order to look for her master and teacher. She would not allow anything to interfere with her mission.
