The sudden sound made the other party lose all his strength. Fan Zhiyi lost his balance and fell against the door, but he closed the door as he wished.
It’s just that his waist…his waist hurts so much.
Fan Zhiyi was crying from the fall, but he still had to force a smile to comfort Xiaobao that he was fine.
"What are you all doing here?"
This time it was Bing Nandong who spoke.
Then the door was opened. Fan Zhiyi looked up and met Bing Nandong's eyes. Bing Nandong was stunned for a moment and then closed the door again.
"Nandong, I just passed by here and saw Junior Brother Qin and Zhiyi."
"Big Brother, I just suddenly remembered something so I came to talk to him. I didn't expect him to have such a bad temper."
Bullshit, I’m going to fight you.
Fan Zhiyi endured the pain and climbed up the door. He was about to let these people experience the quality of a professional, when he heard Bing Nandong's voice with a hint of anger: "Don't bother him. Also, I will investigate the matter of him being left at the Xue residence."
"Big Brother!"
"This is an order. Qin Shuan, don't do anything that you will regret."
Fan Zhiyi had no idea what was going on outside. He just listened in silence for a moment. Then, Mr. Lu Changfu said, "I think Qin Shuan meant well. He's afraid he might do something to you again, so he wanted to say a few words. But Nan Dong, it's easier to avoid an open attack than to defend against an arrow from behind. To be frank, I don't quite agree with you keeping him around any longer."
“…”
Sensing Bing Nandong's resistance to the topic, Lu Changfu sighed softly, "At least you know your limits. Let's go back to our rooms. By the way, the elders sent word that it will take at least a day to reach the Xue residence."
"Okay, I understand."
The door was opened and closed again, and Bing Nandong walked in with his lips tightly pursed, looking in a bad mood.
The two looked at each other, and Bing Nandong was the first to break the silence: "What did he do to you?"
Fan Zhiyi didn't expect Bing Nandong to ask him this question. After all, it seemed that he was the eldest senior brother of Tianyun Sect, and he had a good relationship with these people. Fan Zhiyi thought that Bing Nandong would just want to move on from this matter.
Finding he could speak, Fan Zhiyi asked, "Do you really want to listen?"
"nonsense."
"That man was so fierce. He insisted on coming into the house, and my brother wouldn't let him!" Xiaobao was filled with righteous indignation. He grabbed Fan Zhiyi's hand tightly and stood in front of Fan Zhiyi.
Fan Zhiyi thought about it carefully and felt that it would be inappropriate to say this in front of Xiaobao, who was still young. So he just said casually, "Just like you did last time, you made me mute my microphone." Understanding that Bing Nandong might not understand, Fan Zhiyi changed his words, "It means I'm muted. Do you understand?"
"Wipe your tears."
"I never asked, what happened when I was left alone in a haunted house?"
"I don't know." Bing Nandong explained, fearing Fan Zhiyi wouldn't believe him. "The six of us were ordered to go to Xue's residence to check if there were any unusual movements in the restrictions. However, the demonic energy was rampant, causing fluctuations in the space between yin and yang, and we got separated. When we met again, you were the only one who didn't come out, so I came back to find you."
"What does this ghost energy have to do with the ghost gate you told Zhuang Yujing about during the day?"
Bing Nandong stared at him. Fan Zhiyi thought he had said something wrong again, but then Bing Nandong chuckled and said, "Your memory is actually pretty good this time."
Fan Zhiyi felt that Bing Nandong didn't seem to be praising him, but judging by his expression, he probably didn't intend to answer him, so he changed the subject: "So, do you have a good relationship with your fellow apprentices?"
"very good."
Fan Zhiyi couldn't accurately judge whether what Bing Nandong said was true, but from his various behaviors in the past few days, he was sure that compared with others, Bing Nandong should be the only person who would not hurt him for the time being.
On the contrary, he has too many dark histories, and in everyone's eyes, he is the one who will pose a threat to Bing Nandong.
In such a world setting, the original body, who has no way to practice cultivation, can actually make this group of cultivators so defensive. It has to be said that he is really capable.
Bing Nandong thought Fan Zhiyi's silence was a sign of distrust, so he didn't say anything more, because given the current situation, it was normal for Fan Zhiyi to be cautious.
"But Fan Zhiyi, whether you believe it or not, I will give you the truth and an explanation about why you lost your memory after being left at the Xue residence."
Fan Zhiyi looked at Bing Nandong. The boy's eyes were firm, as if he was determined to get to the bottom of things. He had the authority and momentum of a senior brother. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Do you have anyone you suspect?"
"……Um."
Fan Zhiyi stopped talking. Bing Nandong was still in doubt, but Fan Zhiyi already had a clue in his mind. Qin Shuan must be one of them, and he didn't want to show it too obviously.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Fan Zhiyi changed his tone and said, "Since you're here, why don't you help me apply some medicine? It seems the wound on my waist has opened again."
Fan Zhiyi said this as he brushed his hair and took off his clothes carelessly.
Bing Nandong opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back and took the ointment handed to him by Fan Zhiyi.
He was taller than Fan Zhiyi. The previous times he applied medicine were at night when the lighting was poor. Now in the house, Bing Nandong lowered his eyes and looked at the circle of wounds.
In fact, it has recovered well, but it has turned red again because of the strong pulling tonight. The new flesh in the middle that has not yet grown is a little congested, and it looks more like a circle of red silk thread on the porcelain white skin. It is located above the waist and has a bit of temptation.
Fan Zhiyi didn't feel Bing Nandong applying the medicine, so he urged, "Hurry up, it's a bit cold."
Fan Zhiyi's voice brought Bing Nandong back to his senses. Then, redness spread from his earlobe upwards. His fingertips trembled slightly as he wiped the ointment away. When he was done, he placed the ointment on the table as if throwing away a hot potato. "I'm going home."
"Hey, wait, let's discuss something." When Fan Zhiyi heard Bing Nandong was leaving, he turned around hurriedly.
Bing Nandong was horrified, and even raised his voice: "Can't you get dressed first before talking?"
No, why are you angry again?
Fan Zhiyi wrapped his clothes and smiled: "Xiaobao and I, can we live in the same room with you?"
"No." He refused decisively.
"Then you can live in the same room with me and Xiaobao."
Bing Nandong: "Is there any difference?"
"Of course. The former one will live in your room, and the latter one will live here with me."
Bing Nandong was speechless. Fan Zhiyi felt that he would roll his eyes at him and walk away in the next second. He was even prepared to hug his thighs and cry bitterly. Who knew that Bing Nandong would actually ask him, "Why?"
Why, that's a good question.
"Because I don't feel safe." Fan Zhiyi deliberately put on a stern face and answered seriously, "You and Xiaobao can sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the floor."
"Let's go."
Ah, Fan Zhiyi was still searching for words to persuade him, but he didn't expect Bing Nandong to agree so easily. This is not like his style.
