Three days later, Ning Wan had already started lying down.
On the first day in the tower, Ning Wan had some inappropriate delusion, thinking that Shen Jingyuan had simply forgotten about her and would take her out when he realized what was happening.
But the facts prove that accepting reality calmly is more important than anything else.
Ning Wan huddled in the corner of the stone bed, watching the latest TV series silently.
I have to say that the plot and other things are still nothing new, but what does it matter? She is a local dog and loves to watch it.
The tower demon huddled lazily beside Ning Wan, blending in with the darkness.
Xiao Qi looked at the host who had watched four or five sadistic (exclusive) love (sad) romance (male) deep (main) TV series in a row, and always felt that the host's mental state seemed a little subtle.
Just thinking about the latest news he had received, Xiao Qi still spoke: [Host, it seems that the male protagonist is planning to enter the tower.]
It just seems that he has no intention of taking the host out of the tower.
Xiao Qi didn't look at what it saw before.
Three days ago, after the male protagonist left the Demon Locking Tower, he went down the mountain directly to buy some things. The first thing he bought was a set of very thick cotton bedding and several sets of girls' clothes.
Xiaoqi already had a bad feeling in his heart.
I always feel that Shen Jingyuan really intends to keep its host in the Demon Locking Tower.
Ning Wan didn't say anything, but her back stiffened noticeably. She paused the TV show and spoke after a while, "Really?"
[It’s true, Master.]
Xiao Qi looked at Shen Jingyuan who was getting closer and closer to the Demon Locking Tower and confirmed it again.
But at this moment, Xiao Qi seemed to have forgotten that there was not only Ning Wan in the Demon Locking Tower, but also Shen Qiwen who was determined to stay in the wooden house and guard it even if he died.
Ning Wan quickly wiped away the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes, got out of bed, stretched her body, and tidied her hair.
"Xiao Qi, my eyes shouldn't be red, right?"
Ning Wan asked with a hint of uncertainty. She didn't want to be like before.
[Not popular, host.] Xiao Qi didn't lie.
Ning Wan's eyes instantly regained their brightness, and even the bloodshot at the corners of her eyes slowly dissipated.
My eyelids, which were tired from staying up late, no longer felt tired.
After receiving a positive answer, Ning Wan breathed a sigh of relief. Without thinking too much, he quickly arrived at the tower gate.
She thought it through.
As soon as the tower door opens, she will rush out.
If Shen Jingyuan stops him, then... then just drag him.
No matter what, we have to lock them up together.
Let the other person also feel the feeling of being locked in a small dark room.
The tower demon was confused by Ning Wan's actions.
Look up.
Ning Wan, who had been curled up in a corner in a daze, sobbing and laughing foolishly from time to time, had regained the energy and spirit she had when she first came in.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Ning Wan's receding back.
The tower demon followed without hesitation.
Ning Wan was standing one meter away from the tower gate, slightly off to the side.
If nothing unexpected happens, Shen Jingyuan will come in from the main entrance. What she has to do is to take the opportunity to slip away the moment the door opens, so as not to give Shen Jingyuan a chance to react.
Only after waiting for several minutes did Ning Wan realize that she had not asked Xiao Qi for the specific time.
“Xiao Qi, is Shen Jingyuan outside the tower gate now?”
Xiao Qi wanted to sew his mouth shut, but he still spoke honestly: [The male protagonist is now in the wooden house next to the tower.]
Ning Wan's bright eyes dimmed in an instant, and even the energy and spirit that had just recovered slowly wilted like flowers in a flower shop that had not been tended to.
But when Ning Wan thought about the relationship between the two, she just thought it was normal.
…
…
…
Inside the wooden house at this time.
As soon as Shen Jingyuan entered the room, he saw Shen Qiwen slumped on the ground, and the wooden bed was overturned on the ground, leaning against the wall on one side and supporting Shen Qiwen's back on the other.
Shen Jingyuan frowned and looked at the dazed Shen Qiwen. Without any hesitation, he took a few steps forward and pulled the man up from the ground.
He then let go of his hand and straightened the wooden bed.
As expected, the worn-out bedding was covered in dust after it fell to the ground.
Shen Jingyuan shook it, put it aside, and then took out the bedding he had prepared earlier.
Looking at the empty wooden bed, he glanced at Shen Qiwen who was standing silently on the side, and his hands shook twice again without listening to his command.
Unroll the rolled quilt.
After doing all this, Shen Jingyuan couldn't help but curl his fingers together, and after a while he spoke: "Why don't you move down the mountain?"
But at this time, Shen Qiwen was like a wooden man, just staring blankly at the position of the wooden bed. After a while, he set his eyes on A Yuan in front of him.
Xiyan was taken away.
The first thing he did after waking up was to check if the painting was there under the bed.
I thought it was a done deal, but God always likes to play jokes.
There had been no problems for so many years, but he made a mistake the one time he entered the tower.
Shen Qiwen stared blankly at A Yuan in front of him, his eyes dull, his lips already chapped and covered with dead skin. One could tell with a discerning eye that he hadn't had a drink of water for a while.
There were obvious dark circles around his eyes, which was obviously the result of not getting enough rest in the past two days.
His health even looked worse than before.
"No."
Shen Qiwen spoke stubbornly, as if he was insisting on something.
Shen Jingyuan looked at the dejected Shen Qiwen in front of him, his brows furrowed: "Yuan Shouyi is dead, and my mother has been rescued by me. What's the point of you still staying here?"
"Let mother know that she will feel sorry for you and forgive you?"
Shen Jingyuan thought about it for a while and finally chose this path.
Thinking of Shen Qiwen who had fallen into a coma before, Shen Jingyuan said this with full confidence.
But Shen Qiwen just opened his mouth and couldn’t say anything.
Shen Qiwen was not as ecstatic as Shen Jingyuan had imagined, but in his slightly dilated pupils, one could still see cautious happiness.
Shen Jingyuan didn’t care about Shen Qiwen’s attitude, but continued calmly:
"Mother, I won't give it to you. The reason... you know it well."
"I've built a yard at the foot of the mountain. You can move in."
"I don't blame you for what happened in the past."
Shen Jingyuan originally wanted Shen Qiwen to leave and let him spend the last moments of his life there, but Shen Qiwen didn't want the truth to be known by Shen Jingyuan.
Let him think that Xiyan (mother) was saved. That's fine...
The two sides reached an agreement. Shen Jingyuan had no intention of producing the painting as proof, and Shen Qiwen did not ask for evidence of Xi Yan's rescue, nor did he mention that he had swapped the scroll.
There was still no life around the Demon Locking Tower.
Even after what happened a few days ago, it became even more gloomy.
Shen Qiwen finally nodded, "We'll move in a few days."
