章 28: Chapter 26 Funeral_1

Snapping back to the matter at hand, Pei Ye realized he still hadn't asked the identity of the person beyond the wall.

"This... " Pei Ye hesitated for a moment, choosing to use "miss" over "senior"... "Miss, my name is Pei Ye. May I ask for your name? What has brought you to Fenghuai? If necessary, I can introduce you to some of the officials in the county office."

"There's no need, it's a private matter." The person outside the wall replied, "My name is Ming Qi Tian, may I ask you a few questions?"

Ming Qi Tian? Who was that?

Pei Ye searched this unfamiliar name in his mind. The person said, "I am Ming Qi Tian," not "My name is Ming Qi Tian," a subtle difference that seemed to indicate something.

"Please ask."

"Has there been any talk in this place about a book or a magnificent martial arts technique?"

Pei Ye frowned in confusion, "Not that I've heard."

"Alright, thank you."

Pei Ye was startled - was that it?
