Hu Ma saw this person and finally understood why Miss White Wine had insisted he come at this time, and who this old acquaintance she mentioned was.
The old shopkeeper, when he saw Hu Ma, was also slightly taken aback, seemingly struggling to recall something.
Hu Ma smiled and instructed Zhou Datong and the others to keep the old housekeeper occupied while he politely approached the old man, bowing deeply. "Senior, it's been a long time. Do you still remember me?"
"Ah, don't speak just yet..." The old man quickly reached out to stop him. "I find you familiar too. I'll remember soon enough..."
Hu Ma, seeing him like this, knew he would have a hard time remembering.
He smiled and said directly, "Shopkeeper, have you forgotten last year's trip into the mountains when Second Master and I helped guide you?"
"Ah!" The shopkeeper slapped his forehead and laughed. "It really is you! I knew you looked familiar. Why are you dressed in the style of the Blood Food Gang?"
