Books, Invaluable!

“Xiao Fan, Xiao Fan...”

As Lin Fan was lost in the world of the Junk Yard, Zhang Yan, having finished her cultivation, saw his dazed expression and immediately went over to shake his arm.

With a thought, Lin Fan immediately withdrew his mind and regained consciousness.

Meeting Zhang Yan's gaze, Lin Fan immediately smiled and said, "Yan Jie, you finished your cultivation..."

"What were you thinking about just now? You looked like a fool who had lost his soul..."

Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Lin Fan's lips curled up slightly, and he reached out to pull her into his arms.

Then, looking directly into Zhang Yan's eyes, he said, "Of course I was thinking about Yan Jie..."

"Yan Jie, after this period of rest, all the vital energy you lost due to malnutrition in the past has been fully restored..."

"Yan Jie's current appearance, even if you put her in the vast city of Si Jiu Cheng, would be a beauty among millions..."

"I just want to eat you right now..."

Hearing Lin Fan's voice in her ear, feeling the heat from his breath, Zhang Yan's face instantly turned crimson.

At this moment, her shy appearance made her unable to meet Lin Fan's gaze.

"No, no..."

"It's broad daylight now, what if someone sees us? How can I face people..."

"Wait, wait until tonight..."

After shyly saying these words, Zhang Yan didn't know where she got the strength, she pushed Lin Fan away and turned to run straight into the house.

Seeing Zhang Yan turn and run into the house, her face full of shyness, Lin Fan was stunned for a moment.

Especially when he heard Zhang Yan say "wait until tonight" before leaving, Lin Fan's heart immediately began to race.

But thinking of the mountains of books in the Wan Jie Junk Yard, Lin Fan finally managed to calm down.

"Yan Jie, I'll go for a walk in the village..."

Lin Fan greeted Zhang Yan in the house.

Without waiting for her to say anything, Lin Fan turned and left the courtyard.

After circling the area, he finally found a hidden spot. Then, Lin Fan focused his mind and once again entered the Wan Jie Junk Yard.

Two hours passed, and Lin Fan finally finished sorting through the pile of books.

From books on identifying antiques to those on Feng Shui secrets, seeking dragon veins and acupoints...

From various medical books to those on identifying different herbs, brewing wine and cooking.

From ancient books written in traditional characters to new books printed directly in simplified characters.

Lin Fan counted them carefully, there were exactly 888 books of various types in this pile!

It might not seem like much value, compared to the beast's corpse.

In the short term, it wouldn't be able to change Lin Fan's life as dramatically as the beast's flesh and blood.

But given enough time, mastering any one type of these books would be enough to change an ordinary person's life.

For Lin Fan, what he didn't lack was time.

At least for the next few years, until the reform and opening up, time was on Lin Fan's side!

After organizing these books, Lin Fan transferred them one by one to his storage space, and then with a thought, he left the Wan Jie Junk Yard.

He stretched and moved his limbs, then turned back to his home.

"You're back..."

"Xiao Fan, this letter was brought to you by a friend of yours..."

Seeing Lin Fan return, Zhang Yan immediately came to greet him.

She came up to him, straightened his clothes, and then handed him a letter.

"My letter..."

Taking the letter from Zhang Yan, Lin Fan couldn't help but frown, a look of doubt flashing in his eyes.

For a moment, Lin Fan couldn't figure out who would write to him.

Those beasts in the courtyard couldn't possibly be the ones. They would probably be happy to see him die in the countryside.

The only possibility was the two people he met on the train, Hu Ba Yi and Wang Kai Xuan. They might have written to contact him!

As Lin Fan had guessed, when he opened the envelope and read the contents, he realized that it was from Wang Kai Xuan.

The letter simply inquired about Lin Fan's situation, then talked about his own and Hu Ba Yi's.

Finally, he told Lin Fan to get together if he had the chance!

Seeing the smile unconsciously appearing on Lin Fan's face, Zhang Yan couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Fan, who sent you the letter..."

Lin Fan didn't hide anything, he simply said, "Two friends I met on the train when I went to the countryside..."

Speaking of which, Lin Fan looked at Zhang Yan, glanced at her, and then continued, "Coincidentally, these two friends of mine went to the countryside, in Gang Gang Ying Zi, not far from Kao Shan Tun..."

"They just settled down, and they wrote to me about their situation, asking me to get together if I have the chance..."

When she heard "Gang Gang Ying Zi", Zhang Yan's eyes couldn't help but show a subtle change.

"Yan Jie..."

Noticing the change in Zhang Yan's eyes, Lin Fan reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"Yan Jie, if you don't mind, I can go back with you anytime..."

In a daze, Zhang Yan didn't know what she was thinking, she didn't respond.
