Luo Jiujiang stood there in a daze, and suddenly Xie Chuncan's face flashed before his eyes.
——"Rather than having you put on the wanted list and be killed by others, I would rather kill you with my own hands."
——"If you can defeat me, you will also die. You can only walk behind me."
Isn't Yin Bandi's current behavior quite similar to that of Xie Chuncan, who has been trapped in a deadly place for many years and has become neurotic because of that ghost place?
Xie Chuncan felt that he would definitely die if he was trapped in the Jueqingji, and that he would never get out alive once he entered the death zone. Isn't this logic exactly the same as Yin Bansi's thinking pattern of "she will definitely not die a good death after having her marrow washed and her tendons cut by the strange treasure, so let me give her a quick death"?
Seeing Yin Bansi turning around to leave, Luo Jiujiang couldn't help but call him to stop even though his thoughts were in a mess.
"Peak Master, I... I've heard that Peak Master Yunshen's 'medicine' cures all illnesses. While he won't revive the dead, he won't leave them in ruins. When a dying person seeks medical treatment, even if he refuses to treat them, he can still point out a way forward. Yet, even such an extraordinary person can't heal his own heart disease?"
Just like when he heard Luo Jiujiang's attitude towards the lost Mirage Pearl, Yin Bansi remained indifferent.
No, not completely indifferent. He half lowered his head, shadow covering the upper half of his face, and said coldly, "When I speak human words, you can't remember?"
He raised his eyes and stared at Luo Jiujiang. Compared to the time Luo Jiujiang had inserted and then removed the flowers from his arms, his eyes now looked truly cold and terrifying. After snapping his fingers three times, seeing that Luo Jiujiang still showed no sign of retreating, Yin Bansi suddenly raised his hand and tore open half of his front.
The skin on Yin Bansi's face was waxy and hard, twisted, dry, and uneven, almost without any human shape, but the skin below the neck was slightly pale and soft, looking very normal.
But it was useless even if his skin color was normal, because the half of his chest that was exposed was covered with countless hideous scars, including axe marks, knife marks, puncture marks, and saw marks. If he was willing to take off all his clothes for people to take a closer look, his upper body alone would probably be an exhibition gallery of scars caused by various weapons.
His body looked as if it had been chopped into countless pieces of flesh and then pieced together countless times.
Ordinary people have scars all over their skin, but he has several patches of intact skin growing out of the scars. The perverse contrast creates a different kind of horror.
He didn't know how these scars were caused. Ordinary medicines in the world of cultivation could heal a cultivator's wounds without leaving any traces. However, with his medical skills, he couldn't even heal these scars.
"Even if I were to return to my childhood, if there really was someone like this who was willing to kill me with a single needle at the very beginning, I would erect an immortality archway for him in every of his nine reincarnations."
"Got it?" Yin Bansi gathered his clothes and sneered, "It's so rare for me to do a good deed, but who knew others wouldn't agree."
Luo Jiujiang was stunned, with only a buzzing sound in his head.
—"You've never heard anyone say that? It's a terminal illness, it's ugly, I won't treat it."
So this is what this self-deprecating statement means.
He has already considered himself terminally ill and incurable.
Of course he knew what would happen to the girl next, because he had experienced what he had just described in a calm tone, ten times or a hundred times more. Of course he would conclude that it was better for the child to die, because if he had to choose, he would rather die from the beginning.
Yin Bansi walked away with his hands behind his back. He had said more to Luo Jiujiang today than he had to anyone else in the previous year.
But even if he said so many words, even if he said ten times or a hundred times more, he would never get the good result he wanted.
He didn't even know what result he was expecting.
"I'll return the Mirage Pearl to you when I find a new one," he said coldly.
"I don't want the Mirage Pearl anymore. I just ask Brother Yin to stay." Luo Jiujiang said word by word, "I'm a little confused right now, but please stop for a moment and let me explain clearly."
"What's there to say?" Yin Bansi's expression was indifferent. "This girl can't even be saved, and you dare to keep me here?"
"I'm a Mongolian doctor. I have no special talents, but I have a powerful medicine that has cured many people's troubles. Now I'm discussing it with you. Brother Yin, may I ask why this child must die?"
Luo Jiujiang raised his head, his expression solemn and his eyes piercing. "The academy is a clean and upright place, there shouldn't be such evildoers. Can't we take her and that man back and settle them down?"
"Mortals cannot enter the world of cultivation, so they cannot enter." Yin Bansi said indifferently: "It seems that you don't even know all the eight extraordinary meridians. Take your ointment and go buy a coffin."
Luo Jiujiang was slightly speechless.
Just at this moment, the girl secretly peeked out from the crack of the door, and seeing that the two evil stars had not left yet, she hurried to pull the half-rotten wooden door. Luo Jiujiang glanced at her unintentionally, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.
His eyes shone with joy and excitement, and he seemed even happier than his own advancement: "Brother Yin, this child...she has a Dantian."
Luo Jiujiang said this, but his eyes did not linger on the girl. Instead, he stared at Yin Bansi's ghostly, disfigured face: "Brother Yin, don't you think so? He has a Dantian. How can he practice without a Dantian?"
This statement clearly wasn't referring to the little girl.
Yin Bansi turned around when he heard that, and their eyes fell on the girl at the same time, shocking her so much that she closed the door instantly.
But just that one glance was enough to make it hard to tell.
Perhaps because the mirage pearl that Luo Jiujiang spat out was relatively large, the little girl did open up her Dantian. Although her talent was extremely poor, she was able to enter the realm of cultivation and cultivate immortality.
Unlike Luo Jiujiang, Yin Bandi showed no joy at this moment - having a Dantian would only make him more like him. Could being similar to him be considered a good thing?
