C108 (1/2)

”There are only a few left anyway, let's talk after we're done asking!”

Holding onto my last glimmer of hope, I walked into a tobacco and alcohol supermarket. It wasn't too big, just a small front room, about twenty or thirty square meters wide, filled with all kinds of cigarettes and alcohol.

”Young man, are you buying cigarettes or wine?”

The shop owner was a big sister wearing red clothes. She greeted me enthusiastically before I could enter.

”Eh, elder sister, I don't buy cigarettes or alcohol. I just want to ask you about something!”

I looked at my elder sister, a little embarrassed, and touched the four packs of cigarettes in my pocket. I thought that if I bought more, I wouldn't even have a place to put them.

I didn't smoke much anyway, and I didn't even know that I was going to smoke for a long time, so I said shamelessly this time.

”Ask around, young man. Come in and sit down. What do you want to know?” I'll tell you what I know! ”

Originally, I was prepared to be chased out. After all, there was an example to be made. If I didn't buy anything, these merchants wouldn't look at me with a good face.

However, this elder sister's way of doing things is different from the others. When I heard that she wanted to know more about the matter, not only did she not chase me away, but instead warmly invited me to enter the store, I was somewhat touched.

”Big Sis, you don't have to be so polite. Actually, it's nothing much. I'm just asking, do you know of a Taoist called Blind Ancient Daoist?”

Actually, I didn't have much hope when I asked this question. Yin Ling told me that the owner of this supermarket in Blind Ancient Path was a male. Obviously, this big sister didn't meet the requirements.

However, it's just a matter of luck anyway. There's no reason for me to not ask, especially since I can't let down this big sister's good intentions.

”Who?”

Big Sis saw that I had confirmed it again, and when she heard the words Blind Ancient Daoist, a hint of surprise flashed across her face.

”Blind Ancient Dao.”

I said the old Daoist's name once again and looked expectantly towards elder sister, hoping to get some useful information from her.

”You're looking for him? Could it be that someone in your family has faked his corpse as well?”

Big Sis looked at me with a face full of suspicion. Then, she said something weird.

Even though elder sister's words didn't sound like good news at first, but for me who had been searching for the blind old way for three days, it was like a happy news that fell from the sky.

”Big Sis, does that mean you know about it?”

My face lit up as I asked my elder sister excitedly.

”Of course I know. This Blind Ancient Daoist has even saved the lives of our family members?”

Big Sis looked at me and said with an excited expression, as though she was still immersed in the joy of surviving.

”Since you know, can you tell me where this blind old path resides?” I have something urgent that I need his help with! ”

Big Sis's reply made my eyes light up. I immediately looked at her and asked.

At this point, I was even blind to the feeling of the ancient path right before my eyes, and I was getting closer and closer to victory.

”Eh, I really don't know about that. Although I've seen this blind, ancient Daoist before, the person who went to invite him here was my husband. I've never asked him where he lives.”

This time, it was elder sister who looked at me and said in embarrassment.
