d the old woman as a good person to help her.

Up till this point, she had indeed done nothing but help her, so it was only normal for her to show gratitude and trust.

“They’ve all moved away, but I like it here.
I’ve lived here for so many years, I can’t bear to leave.” She raised her head as she spoke, her dry-well like eyes without waves staring at Feng Jiu.


Though it was meant to be an ordinary glance, however, to Feng Jiu, that glance seemed to have a different meaning.
When that glance landed on her, her heart sank a little.
Her eyes narrowed with a smile as she spoke briskly: “A lot of things are a habit, take me for example, I like to walk around in beggar’s clothes.”

“Yes, they’re all habits.”

The hunchbacked old woman responded and lowered her head and eyes.
She pulled a thread the length of a toothpick from her dress as she sat there and tied a knot around it.

Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu took out the cake the old woman had given her earlier.
She looked at the sesame seeds sprinkled on the cake and her eyes flashed as she took a bite of the cake.

“Old lady, how come you can use your body as a furnace? Won’t your body be overwhelmed?” She asked as she ate.


She raised her head and looked at Feng Jiu and said in her hoarse, old voice: “No, because my body is a furnace.”

“Then what about this primordial spirit?” She pointed to the little thing on her shoulder: “This thing will stay like this? It seems to like me.”

“Haha…” The old woman laughed lowly, her old voice trembled: “It likes you because the breath on your body is clean.”
