Chapter 164 "The Complete Collection of Minggao Ninjutsu"

Ryan didn't say a word, just hugged Qianye silently for a long time, and then slowly let go of Qianye.

After leaving Ryan's arms, Chiba still looked a little dazed, but a little color appeared on his pale face. It was unclear whether he cheered up or was a little shy.

After letting go of Qianye, Ryan reached out and fiddled with Qianye's hair twice, and said softly:

"You have done a good enough job. Rest well. Don't worry, you will be fine. This is the case today and it will be the same in the future."

After that, Ryan, Xiao Qiancao and Meezhi left Chiba's house and closed the door of Chiba's house.

As the door was slowly closed, a cold wind seeped in, making Qianye's delicate body tremble, and then Qianye came back to her senses.

Sitting silently at the table, Chiba opened the pastry given to her by Ryan, picked up a small piece of pastry, put it into her mouth and took a bite.

While chewing the pastry, Chiba suddenly felt that the pastry was a bit salty.

Reaching out to rub his face, Qianye found that tears emerged from his eyes again at some point.

His vision gradually became hazy.

After wiping away the tears with his sleeve, more tears emerged from them, dripping continuously on the cake in his hand.

Chiba just sat alone in the room, silently wiping her tears while eating the pastries given to her by Ryan.

At this time, Ryan and the two women had arrived at the exit of Akabane Taisha Shrine, preparing to enter the city.

As a result, Ryan and his group happened to meet a group of people from the caravan.

As soon as he saw Ryan, the leader Oda Yuki waved and said: "Sir Ryan! We are preparing to go to the city to purchase some things, and we want to go together..."

Speaking of the latter part, Oda Yuki suddenly noticed Mei Zhi and Chigusa next to Ryan, and immediately swallowed his words and said instead:

"Mr. Ryan, is there anything you want? We can buy it for you on the way."

Ryan shook his head: "No need, be careful."

"okay!"

After leaving Akabane Taisha Shrine, the caravan's route happened to coincide with the direction Ryan and his group were going to visit. It was Oda Yuki who waved his hand and led the caravan in the opposite direction, staggering away from Ryan and his group.

Xiao Qiancao walking on the street looked left and right, looking very curious, so Ryan couldn't help but ask:

"Chigusa, don't you rarely visit the city?"

Chigusa replied: "As a goddess, I have to ride a carriage to tour the city every week to perform rituals, but at that time I couldn't look around. Apart from this, I rarely came out."

"Because the goddess cannot enter and leave the shrine at will?"

"No."

Chigusa shook her head: "It's just that I don't want to leave the shrine. It's too tiring to climb down the steps and climb up."

Ryan: "..."

"but……"

Suddenly, Chigusa changed the topic and looked up at Ryan. Her round little face was so cute: "I don't feel annoying when I come out with Mr. Ryan."

cough……

Ryan couldn't help but cover his chest, feeling as if his heart had been hit by a sledgehammer.

If Octavier saw this scene, she would definitely complain secretly. For Ryan, the attack power of the demon generals is not as high as the damage of a little loli's straight ball.

It was at the peak of the flow of people at this time, and the streets of Minggao were full of people. Fortunately, it was not very crowded, and it did not prevent Ryan from enjoying the scenery of Minggao.

Although there is nothing worth paying attention to in Minggao...

"Mr. Lane, have you decided where to go first?"

Yazhi walked in front, turned back to Ryan and asked with a smile, his tail swaying back and forth, looking very happy.

"Is there a place that sells books?"

Ryan said: "I plan to buy two books first, and then just browse around for the rest of the time."

"Want to buy books? I know a place, let's go!"

After hearing that Ryan wanted to buy a book, Yazhi immediately looked very excited and trotted ahead to lead the way.

Ryan laughed dumbly. Looking at Yazhi's appearance, could it be that she also likes reading? But I always feel that Yazhi doesn’t seem like someone who likes reading?

After walking around for a long time with Meizhi, Xiao Qiancao's face began to turn slightly red. The group finally arrived at the bookstore recommended by Meizhi.

This is a... very quaint bookstore. Although it is shabby, it can be seen that the owner often wiped the plaque. The location is also quite remote in Minggao.

Pushing open the door and walking into the bookstore, you can see that the interior of the bookstore is not large. The bookshelves and plaques have a sense of age, but they are as bright and clean as new. It can be seen that the owner of the bookstore cherishes these antiques.

The owner of the bookstore was an old woman. She recognized Yazhi at a glance and said with a kind smile:

"It's Yazhi, eh? And the goddess? And this gentleman, is he your friend?"

"Mr. Lane is a distinguished guest of our shrine. As for friends..."

Having said this, Yazhi couldn't help but look at Ryan. Seeing Ryan nodding, he smiled and said, "He's my friend too!"

"Hello."

Ryan smiled and nodded to the old woman: "I want to buy two Minggao-specific books."

"Books unique to Minggao..."

After hearing this, the old woman came to a bookshelf and took out a book from the shelf: "How about this "Minggao Magic Potion Illustrated Book"?"

The old woman came directly to this bookshelf, which made Ryan wonder whether the old woman had memorized the layout of all the books in the bookstore.

Although the bookstore is not big, there are quite a lot of books, not to mention that this old woman is trembling when she walks. If she really memorizes them all, she will be very powerful.

Ryan took this huge book, flipped through two pages, pondered for a moment, and said, "I bought this one. Do you have any other recommendations?"

"Minggao Potion Illustrated Book" is indeed a book unique to Minggao. Although it can be purchased from Minggao in the Hedley Empire, it is not allowed to be printed in the Hedley Empire.

Moreover, the sales volume of this book purchased from Minggao Hedley Empire can be said to be very poor. After all, this book does not contain the manufacturing methods of these potions, only descriptions and annotations, and even many long-lost potions. They are all inside, out of reach of commoners, and there is no need for nobles to buy them.

Amiya should be very interested in this kind of book...

"How about this one?"

The old woman took out another book. On the cover were the words "Ming Gao Ninjutsu Encyclopedia".

Ryan: "..."

At this moment, Ryan seemed to have guessed why Yazhi recommended this bookstore to him.

But this book, not to mention Amiya, was very interesting to Ryan himself, so he also bought it.

Seeing that Ryan bought "The Encyclopedia of Minggao Ninjutsu", Yazhi's beautiful eyes lit up and she said happily:

"Mr. Lane! Are you interested in this book? Do you also want to learn ninjutsu? I can teach you!"
