When Jian Jinge entered the Wanjie Bookstore, he reminded them, "Owner, a customer has entered the store. Don't show up directly on the first floor."

Jian Jinge was a little surprised, but she didn't ask any more questions. She went straight to the second floor and didn't go downstairs immediately. She asked tentatively, "Is this guest special?"

There was silence in Wanjie Bookstore for a moment, and when he spoke, there was a hint of solemnity in his voice: Yes, owner, this customer was not invited by me. It can be said that she came to us uninvited and took the initiative. Moreover, she is very strong!

Jian Jinge: Other residents in the God-forsaken land?

Wanjie Bookstore: No, she doesn’t belong here!

Jian Jinge: If we were to face each other, what are your chances of winning?

Wanjie Bookstore: This is my territory. She can't hurt me, nor you. What I'm afraid of is that she will find out something's wrong with you and eventually lock onto your location.

Jian Jinge: Do you know what race the people who came are?

Wanjie Bookstore: She does not belong to any family.

Jian Jinge was surprised again, "You mean, she is a god?"

Wanjie Bookstore didn't know what to say, so he organized his words and summarized what he had discovered: No, she is not a god, nor a human, nor a member of any of the myriad races.

Wanjie Bookstore paused and said, "She came from far away.

Jian Jinge was silent, then tentatively asked, "Could it be that she is the way of heaven?"

Wanjie Bookstore denied it, saying: There is no Heavenly Dao in the world you are in, and of course, she is not the Heavenly Dao either.

Jian Jinge narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of thought flashed in the depths of his black pupils: She is a strong person from another world!

Wanjie Bookstore didn't deny it, but it didn't admit it either. Jian Jinge found Xiao Shushu's attitude very interesting.

But she is not the type of person who is aggressive and curious. If Xiao Shushu doesn't want to explain it too clearly, then she won't ask.

Anyway, if that person really threatened her, Xiao Shushu would naturally tell her.

Jian Jinge raised her legs and walked slowly from the first floor, step by step.

Halfway through the walk, I saw someone standing on the first floor. I stopped involuntarily. An indescribable sense of danger surged into my heart. The cells in my body suddenly became boiling with blood. I felt hot and crazy.

An invisible chill ran from the tendons and veins in the soles of my feet all the way to the top of my head, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over me. At that moment, my limbs and bones felt so cold that they were trembling.

Jian Jinge curled her fingertips slightly, and started walking again, step by step, steadily and slowly, towards the first floor.

"Hello, customer, welcome to this bookstore!" The moment he stood on the first floor, Jian Jinge straightened his back and looked at the white-haired woman standing in the middle of the bookstore without haste.

The woman was wearing a red dress that looked like it was dyed with blood, and on the dress were blooming gorgeous red spider lilies.

At first glance, it is lifelike.

The red spider lilies on her skirt bloomed more beautifully as she swayed slightly.

The woman was surrounded by a kind of indifference, as if she was detached from the world and had seen through life and death.

It is not the indifference of ignoring life, but the indifference of seeing through life and death.

There was a trace of compassion and tenderness in a pair of dark eyes, and soft white hair was casually draped over the shoulders.

This contrasting combination makes the woman in front of him look even more mysterious.

"You are very interesting!" The white-haired woman glanced at Jian Jinge for three seconds and commented without any malice.

Jian Jinge raised an eyebrow. "Thank you. Do you have any books you like? I can exchange them for something of equivalent value."

The white-haired woman took a few steps towards the bookshelf, her steps like a lotus. The red spider lilies on her skirt bloomed as she moved, and beautiful flowers formed under her feet.

It disappeared in an instant, leaving only a petal slowly falling and spinning.

The second after the petals touched the ground, they turned into wisps of red dust and disappeared between heaven and earth.

Jian Jinge's attention was immediately drawn in. A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. He said to Xiao Shushu in his heart, "She has a very strong definition."

The carved flowers in the skirt, lotus flowers blooming with every step, blooming at will, even if she is given a hundred years, she can't do this.

Especially this flower...

Red spider lily, also known as Lycoris radiata.

From…

Jian Jinge lowered her eyelashes slightly, and her thick eyelashes covered the fleeting obscurity in her eyes.

The white-haired woman's slender fingertips lightly brushed across the books on the bookshelf.

A gentle breeze blew through the bookstore, and the books on the shelves made a rustling sound as the wind blew.

The red spider lilies on the blood-red dress bloomed more and more brightly, and it felt as if it would bleed in the next second.

Three thousand soft white hairs clung to the woman's body, swaying gently in the wind. The hair brushed against her cheek, covering half of her beautiful face.

The white-haired woman slowly moved from the left bookshelf to the right bookshelf until the wind stopped. She also stopped, and her slender fingers fell on one of the green leather books.

He pulled it out, turned sideways, looked at Jian Jinge, raised his hand slightly, motioned her to take a look and assess the price, and said calmly, "Hello, I want it."

Jian Jinge glanced at the book in her hand, a fleeting flicker of doubt in his eyes. He kept it a secret and nodded, "Sure, as long as you exchange it for something of equal value."

The white-haired woman said nothing, but glanced at the things on her wrist, and took out a book and three black iron boxes.

At first glance, it looks like an ordinary iron lump, but if you look closely, you will find that the three boxes are faintly filled with a strange and frightening aura.

The white-haired woman pondered for half a second, then raised her palm and a red spider lily appeared.

"One red spider lily, one life."

Jian Jinge's pupils shrank slightly, and he cast a sharp, scrutinizing gaze at the other person.

The two of them followed each other for more than ten steps, staring at each other from a distance.

half an hour.

Jian Jinge took a step to the side, the corners of her lips curled slightly as she commented, "You're quite interesting, too."

The white-haired woman chuckled, and her coldness immediately faded. She said sincerely, "Thank you."

"The transaction is confirmed. Sir, do you want any other books?" Jian Jinge asked.

The white-haired woman casually glanced at a certain part of the bookstore, and finally fixed her eyes on her face. She took a step forward, handed the red spider lily in her hand to her, and said in an obscure tone,

"I hope you never have to use it!"

Jian Jinge took it, her fingertips lightly brushing over the enchanting petals of the red spider lily. "I hope so."

Two very simple words, both of them understood it tacitly.

Before leaving, the white-haired woman glanced at the fortune-telling book on the table. "Shopkeeper, there's no such thing as a book that can reveal fate. Fate is inherently uncontrollable, and there's no predetermined trajectory. If there were..."

She didn't say anything after that, but just looked at her meaningfully.

Open the door of the bookstore,

He took a step forward and disappeared into the mist in an instant.

As she completely disappeared, she left behind a warning: "...If there is, then you better be careful!"
