"Yi Zhifan." Fan Zhiyi answered honestly. Anyway, it would be easy for them to find out this name if they wanted to. Those people in the Fan family would tell them, so it would be better for him to tell them himself.
For some reason, Fan Zhiyi clearly felt that the man who was supporting him held his hand a little tighter, as if he was surprised to hear his name. The freckled young man's face did not show much emotion, and he continued to ask, "Did you come in from outside? How did you find this place?"
Fan Zhiyi lowered his head, thinking about how to continue the story. After all, this was in a haunted house, and he fell off a cliff and landed right at the door of the house. It didn't sound reasonable no matter how you looked at it, so it was understandable that everyone suspected him.
Master Fan suddenly spoke up to help him out: "Zhifan was traveling with us. His sedan chair disappeared while we were crossing the mountain. Because the Tianyun Sect was pressing for help, I had no choice but to continue on my journey and left some people behind to search for him in the mountains. Fortunately, Zhifan returned safely."
A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating Master Fan's figure for a moment and then dimming again.
Safe and sound? How can he be considered safe and sound? Brother, do you need to see a doctor for your eyes too?
Master Fan said this, but he looked at Fan Zhiyi coldly as he was about to walk up to him. Then he gently raised his hand and moved his fingertips, asking the servant on his right to come over and take Fan Zhiyi from the man. Fan Zhiyi whispered "thank you" to the man again.
Thunder roared, as if it were shaking everyone's ears. Someone showed fear on his face and whispered, "Let's go back to our respective sects and talk again after dawn. The world is already unstable, and we are trapped in a house like this..."
"You haven't answered my question yet. How did you find this place and get in?" The one who spoke was still the freckled young man, his eyes fixed on Fan Zhiyi.
At this point, everyone's attention was focused on Fan Zhiyi again. After all, his appearance was indeed strange. Under the current circumstances, no hidden dangers could be left.
"Just like Master Fan said, I encountered a mysterious wall in the mountains, but unfortunately I didn't run into the person Master Fan sent to find me. I kept running and running, and somehow I became blind along the way and fell off a cliff. When I woke up, I felt an open door in front of me. I lay on the steps at the door and groped my way in. Then I heard the door close, and then I met you." Fan Zhiyi smiled with relief, "I was lucky to find Master Fan."
Master Fan finally took a few steps forward. The wind lifted his hair, and his eyes gradually emerged from the darkness, filled with pity. He raised his hand to push Fan Zhiyi's dirty hair aside his face, and said soothingly, "Perhaps your eyes are temporarily blinded by the miasma in the forest. Don't be afraid."
Fan Zhiyi nodded obediently, but the freckled young man didn't seem to believe Fan Zhiyi's words and kept asking, "There are many ghosts in the mountains these days. I see your cultivation level isn't very high, so didn't you encounter anything? And how did you fall off the cliff and land right at the door of the house?"
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Fan Zhiyi doesn't plan to debate any further. Leaving enough room for imagination for some things is the key to saving your life.
"Enough, cough cough, don't the people of the Gao family know how to discipline your subordinates? They have no manners at all!" Master Fan frowned and raised his voice. The majesty of a young master from an aristocratic family that had been cultivated for a long time was reflected, but he couldn't stop coughing.
"Sorry, sorry, we didn't discipline her well." A middle-aged man in his forties or fifties squeezed out, glanced at the freckled young man, lowered his voice and threatened, "Don't cause trouble. If you two weren't good at cultivation, why would they let servants like you, who just joined the mansion, take care of the young lady before she went to Tianyunmen? Gao Xiao, apologize to Master Fan immediately, and then you two go back and take good care of the young lady. If anything happens to the young lady, you can't bear the consequences!"
The freckled young man pursed his lips and looked at Fan Zhiyi with sharp eyes, as if he was unwilling to give up. In the end, he just bowed to Master Fan and said, "My humble servant is rude."
The housekeeper also smiled apologetically. Master Fan covered his lips and coughed, looking particularly uncomfortable. He didn't say anything more to them, but just said to Fan Zhiyi: "Zhifan, come with me. It's not safe in the haunted house. Don't stay too far away from us."
Master Fan was supported and walked behind the archway. The crowd also dispersed according to their own groups. Some were walking in the east, south, west and north, which also showed that this mansion should be quite large.
Fan Zhiyi turned around and looked at the young man named Gao Xiao and the man who helped him, and secretly thought that it would be better to avoid meeting them again in the future.
And that Master Fan said not to stay too far away, but actually he had no intention of waiting for Fan Zhiyi at all. The followers naturally followed him without paying attention to Fan Zhiyi, except for the young man who was just ordered to come and support Fan Zhiyi. From this, Fan Zhiyi estimated that his status in the Fan family was not high, after all, he was just an adopted son.
It seems that his days in the haunted house will not be easy. Not only does he have to be on guard against ghosts that may appear at any time, but he also has to be on guard against these people so as not to become cannon fodder.
Fan Zhiyi discussed with Bai Bai in his mind: "What other tricks are there in the 'One Hundred Thousand Small Spells for Immortal Cultivation' to prevent and capture ghosts? Show me more so I can learn from them."
"The host is finally willing to make progress." Bai Bai was very pleased with this.
Fan Zhiyi: “…”
When we arrived at the accommodation, it turned out that the Fan family's temporary residence was right next to the Gao family's. Now that they were away from home in such a place, it would be best if they could stick together, so that any problems they encountered would be easier to solve.
