"I... I was wrong... I shouldn't have laughed..." When he saw my expression, he trembled even more and apologized to me.
"you……"
I didn't know what to say when Xiao Ding apologized to me. Maybe I was a terrible person in Xiao Ding's heart. Just thinking about it made me feel uncomfortable.
"It's okay." I said this a little stiffly, but whether I'm okay or not is still up to me.
When Xiao Ding heard that I didn't mind, he started to smile foolishly again.
I looked at his innocent self, thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Ding, I'm sorry!"
Xiao Ding looked at me strangely and said, "What are you talking about? Why are you apologizing all of a sudden?"
Sure enough, Xiao Ding didn’t remember what happened between him and me. I didn’t know whether I should be happy or guilty for betraying Xiao Ding’s trust in me.
"Actually, the fight between Fatty and you this time wasn't an accident, it was something I tacitly approved!"
Sure enough, after hearing what I said, Xiao Ding opened his eyes very wide, like a big lantern. "Oh, why?" Xiao Ding was a little unhappy. He looked away, and seemed very sad. I felt distressed and guilty when I saw him.
I didn't want to make the atmosphere too serious, so I smiled and said, "I think Fatty would be quite good against you." After a pause, I said, "I could have watched you and Fatty fight... Although that might seem a bit inhumane, this place is different from before. I hope you can protect yourself."
Sure enough, as soon as I said that, Xiao Ding understood what I meant and thought that he was holding back.
Xiao Ding hesitated for a moment and said, "I understand. Because of me, you have to always divide your attention to protect me. I'm sorry."
I didn't think of Xiao Ding as a burden, but he still thought so. I had no choice but to divert his attention and said, "I don't want you to apologize. I want you to start learning from tomorrow, starting with speed and learning how to protect yourself."
Xiao Ding nodded immediately, and after a while, he said to me hesitantly, "Actually, I have something I want to tell you!" After that, Xiao Ding began to hesitate again, as if considering whether to tell me.
I didn't say anything and just looked at Xiao Ding. In fact, when I first talked about this, I was still struggling with how to convince Xiao Ding to agree to study with me. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ding agreed on his own. Thinking of this, I felt very happy.
Xiao Ding looked hesitant, but finally said that when his funds were controlled, he seemed to be able to feel that there was something in the snake's body, but I'm not sure. But vaguely, he told me that it was more like a golden elixir in the novel, and there was also something like a martial arts technique in his mind, but I'm not sure either.
When I heard this, I immediately felt that it was out of the question. I looked at Xiao Ding with a surprised expression on my face. If this was really the case, it would not be that simple.
The original article said that Xiao Ding was his, but now that Xiao Ding has calculated the extra skills, I am worried that he might have been possessed by someone else, as described in the first-line novels.
I looked at Xiao Ding with a scrutinizing look in my eyes.
Xiao Ding saw that there was something wrong with my expression and was a little scared. He didn't know whether it was good or bad to say it out loud. But he didn't say it out loud because he had no one to talk to. He analyzed his worries and told me about it. Now seeing my expression, Xiao Ding was suddenly a little at a loss, not knowing whether his choice was right or wrong.
I followed Xiao Ding silently, seeing his bewildered look. His toes were curled with nervousness, suggesting he was very nervous. Thinking of Xiao Ding's usual demeanor, I felt the possibility of the snake possessing him was low. If the snake were still within Xiao Ding's body, then killing him would be a piece of cake. And from what I could tell, it couldn't possibly be within Xiao Ding's body. After all, I had already chopped his head into a pulp.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Are you sure what you said is true?" If what Xiao Ding said is true, then Xiao Ding is very likely to be able to practice that set of exercises.
Thinking of this, the way I look at Xiao Ding changes. This is really a timely help.
Xiao Ding was frightened by my shifting gaze, but when he heard my question, he still answered obediently, "It's true, brother, I really feel like there are a lot more things in my mind."
Hearing what Xiao Ding said, I suddenly felt a sense of regret. Xiao Ding, this could be considered a blessing in disguise. But at the same time, I was also glad that I only chopped the snake's head into a pulp. I hope the golden elixir is still there.
"Really? This might be your blessing!" I reached out and patted Xia Ding's head.
Thinking that in this place, one should not have the intention to harm others but must be on guard against them, I said to Xiao Ding, "Have you told your fat brother about this?" But then I think about it, Fatty was here just now, and I was here too, and it seemed that I had not heard Xiao Ding mention this matter, so Fatty probably doesn't know either.
"Not yet, I forgot to tell you." Xiao Ding shook his head and said.
Fortunately, Xiao Ding forgot to mention it, otherwise I don't know if Fatty would have any ideas. After all, Fatty was thinking of stealing the beads and giving them to the female ghost. All of this made me a little worried, but fortunately Xiao Ding didn't say it yet.
I patted Xiao Ding's head and said, "Be good, don't tell your fat brother about this, okay?"
Xiao Ding tilted his head in confusion and said, "Is this okay? After all, Fatty plays so well with us, and even he can't say anything!"
I asked Xiao Ding if I felt happy or worried about his innocence. Xiao Ding was happy because he thought Fatty was a good person, but he was worried that Xiao Ding might get cheated someday without even knowing it.
But I still have to tell you some positive things about Xiao Ding. If the ancestral hall instills negativity, things will darken Xiao Ding's mind. After thinking about it, I touched Xiao Ding's head and said, "Don't tell Fatty Brother about this. I'm afraid he'll think too much."
Xiao Ding nodded, seemingly understanding, and agreed. He didn't understand my intention, but he understood what I said, which was simply not to tell Fatty.
Seeing Xiao Ding so well behaved, I was very happy, but after thinking about it, I still felt uneasy and reminded him: "Remember to promise your brother, this is a secret between the two of us."
Xiao Ding nodded, stretched out his little index finger, and said, "I understand, brother, let's pinky promise!"
Looking at Xiao Ding, I also silently stretched out my little index finger.
The two little index fingers were crossed together, and Xiao Ding was still muttering, "We'll make a pinky promise and never change it for a hundred years!" After he finished speaking, Xiao Ding and I separated our index fingers.
