Hua Shi waited in the room for a long time. There had been no further noise from the room that Wen Zhong and Jiang Tingwan had entered since the initial sound. Hua Shi didn't know what had happened and didn't dare to go in rashly. In the end, he could only stay in the room.
After he had a good sleep and realized that the time for using the Yunxiu pen was almost up, he went to the room again, ready to bravely ask about the situation.
But before he could ask, the door of the room slowly opened from the inside, and then a figure slowly walked out.
Hua Shi didn't spend too much time trying to figure out who the person who walked out was, because the figure's features were too obvious.
The first thing to come out of the room was his white cat.
However, looking at the way the white cat walked out, it was obvious that its movements were slow and weak. Seeing this, Hua Shi hurried forward, took the white cat into his arms and held it up.
Fang Wei has already consumed too much energy in order to suppress Wen Zhong's inner demons. If it was his real body doing it, it wouldn't be a big deal, but at this moment he was just a weak wisp of spiritual consciousness, so this consumption was already huge for him.
So at this time, facing Hua Shi's open arms, Fang Wei did not worry about face issues as usual, but obediently lay in Hua Shi's arms, and even took the initiative to move his paws and found the most comfortable position to sleep.
Hua Shi couldn't help laughing when he saw the white cat like this, and poked his cheek with his hand.
Although Fang Wei closed his eyes to rest, he did not really fall asleep immediately. He raised his claws to wave away Hua Shi's rebellious hand and said in a slightly weak voice: "Send the person back first. I will rest in your soul. Tell Zhou Li that the matter has not been resolved yet. You have to come to this dungeon again tomorrow."
Hua Shi stopped laughing when he heard that. His expression changed and he quickly said, "Wait! I want to do it again?!"
Unfortunately, after he said this, Hua Shi no longer had any intention of responding to him. He buried his head in Hua Shi's arms, his ears drooping, and the whole cat had fallen into a deep sleep.
Hua Shi stared at the white cat for a long time. Although he didn't know what the system had done, he thought it must be very tired, so he stopped disturbing it. He just rubbed its head and whispered, "Go to sleep."
He held the white cat in his arms, looked up at the room in front of him with the door already ajar, and then finally pushed the door open and walked in.
Inside the room, Wen Zhong had fallen asleep at some point and was now curled up in the corner, looking unaware of what was going on.
Not only Wen Zhong, but Jiang Tingwan also fell asleep for some reason. Even in his sleep, the corners of his lips were raised, as if he had dreamed of something interesting.
Hua Shi called out twice but failed to wake them up. He was confused again. How come all of them fell asleep after half a day? Could it be that there was some strange ability in his Yunxiu Pen space that could make everyone who came in fall asleep?
Now that everyone has fallen asleep, there is no point in staying here any longer. Hua Shi lowered his head and gently stroked the white cat's head, and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work."
As he spoke, he put away the Yunxiu Pen Space. In an instant, the light fell, and everyone returned to the prison where they were previously.
After being comforted, Wen Zhong was still sleeping. Hua Shi did not dare to touch him. The white cat in his arms had once again transformed into a golden ball of light and returned to his body. Apparently, it had entered his soul sleep as he had said before. Hua Shi then woke up Jiang Tingwan in the corner, and then turned around and shouted outside: "Zhou Li! You can let us out now!"
There was no sound from outside. Hua Shi shouted a few more times, and then he heard footsteps coming slowly from outside. Then Zhou Li opened the door, poked his head inside, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Hua Shi nodded: "It's fine for now, but I have to come again tomorrow."
Zhou Li frowned and asked, "So long?"
Hua Shi was also very distressed, but since the system said so, he would not doubt it. He nodded and said, "It will take several more days."
Zhou Li was a little surprised, but before he could ask, Hua Shi asked again: "What time is it now? Have you been waiting outside?"
Zhou Li said, "You still dare to ask? It's already daybreak. I went outside to rest before coming here. I just heard your voice when I came here."
Hua Shi blinked, then he remembered that when they arrived at Hanxi Sect on their swords, it was almost dusk. They were then delayed in prison for a long time, and then went to the Yunxiu Pen space. It was indeed almost the entire night.
Hua Shi thanked Zhou Li for his hard work, and finally turned back to look at Wen Zhong who was sleeping soundly, then temporarily left the dungeon with everyone else.
During this time, Zhou Li was also a little curious. He didn't understand how Hua Shi made Wen Zhong calm down. Hua Shi couldn't explain it clearly, so he naturally didn't reveal it.
Then, under the guidance of Zhou Li, Hua Shi went to the residence that Hanxi Sect had arranged for him in advance.
Having not had a good rest the day before, Hua Shi slept for a while longer in his room after eating something. When he woke up, it was already afternoon. Hua Shi stayed in the room and watched the disciples of Hanxi Sect practice sword for a while. He then tried to communicate with the system in his soul, but failed to wake up the system.
Hua Shi guessed that the "tomorrow" the system mentioned was probably not today, so he let the system continue to sleep. After all, if he wanted to appease Wen Zhong and treat Jiang Tingwan, he must use the Yunxiu Pen Space. Now the Yunxiu Pen Space is still cooling down, and even if the system wakes up, it probably won't be able to continue the treatment.
So Hua Shi started to have fun here with peace of mind. After another day, Hua Shi was awakened by the sound of Hanxi Sect's disciples practicing swords. He finally heard the voice of the system reminding him to practice.
Hua Shi felt a little uncomfortable after not communicating with the system for just one day, so he quickly grabbed the other party and chatted for a long time before concentrating on morning exercises. After practicing, he waited for the CD of the Yunxiu pen to be almost up, and then he immediately found Zhou Li again and took Jiang Tingwan to the dungeon again.
As the saying goes, the first time is new, the second time is familiar. When Hua Shi went to find Wen Zhong the second time, he no longer felt the same fear as before.
But what puzzled him was that he clearly followed Xuan Shuzhi's instructions to come here to find Wen Zhong to stimulate Jiang Tingwan to return to normal. Why was it that after coming here and having contact with him, Jiang Tingwan didn't seem to have changed, but Wen Zhong seemed much calmer?
With such doubts, Hua Shi brought people back into the space of Yunxiu Pen, and watched the white cat appear again. He took Wen Zhong and Jiang Tingwan into the room and closed the door.
...I always feel that the matter seems to have nothing to do with him, but I don’t know what is going on.
Hua Shi would wait every two days until the space of Yunxiu Pen could be used and then enter the dungeon again. After nearly half a month, when Hua Shi had become completely familiar with the structure of the entire dungeon, one day after coming out of the Yunxiu Pen space and returning to the dungeon again, the system finally told Hua Shi that he could leave Hanxi Sect.
Hua Shi was naturally happy about this. He had been in Hanxi Sect for such a long time and had long since stopped wanting to stay there. Although he had a good life in Hanxi Sect, this was not his own sect after all, and he was not as free as he would be in his own place.
However, Hua Shi still couldn't help but have doubts about this, and after hearing the system's decision, he immediately asked: "Didn't Master ask me to find a way for Senior Wen Zhong to cure Senior Jiang? Why doesn't Senior Jiang seem to be getting any better?"
Fang Wei: “…”
He knew that Xuan Shuzhi asked Hua Shi to bring Jiang Tingwan here in the hope that he could meet Wen Zhong and find a way to treat Wen Zhong. Xuan Shuzhi never really thought that Wen Zhong could cure Jiang Tingwan.
Fang Wei focused all his energy on this, and he did almost cure Wen Zhong's symptoms of possession, but he never thought about how to explain it to Hua Shi.
But before Fang Wei could speak, Hua Shi had already put his hand on his chin and said, "It seems that Senior Wen is unable to cure Senior Jiang. We have been busy for so long but it is useless. We can only ask Master to think of other ways when we go back."
There was not even the slightest doubt in his words about what Fang Wei had done every time she was locked in the room with Wen Zhong and the others during this period of time. It was complete and unreserved trust.
Fang was speechless for a while, but couldn't help laughing after a while, and whispered: "Then go back."
Hua Shi nodded. Before leaving the prison, he glanced at Wen Zhong, who was tied up with countless chains and seemed to be resting with his eyes closed. He said goodbye softly in that direction, without caring whether the other party could hear him.
Zhou Li had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Hua Shi coming out, he glanced at the people in the cell, then turned around and locked the dark cell again.
Then Zhou Li brought Hua Shi back to the ground. Hua Shi went back to pack his things, and Zhou Li helped him pack.
Hua Shi didn't have much stuff, so he packed it up in a short time. Then he turned around and said to Zhou Li, "I'm sorry to bother you these days. I'll go back to Xuanling Pavilion first."
Zhou Li nodded, and said that his master had intended to come and see him off, but he couldn't because he had something else to do. Hua Shi didn't think that his little disciple was worth seeing off, so he shook his head and declined Zhou Li's offer to send him back with his sword, then he slowly set off with his bag.
But it was not until he stepped out of the gate of Hanxi Sect under Zhou Li's gaze and walked to a place where the other party could not reach his sight that Hua Shi stopped and could not help but regret it.
He didn't understand why he had so quickly refused to let Zhou Li give him a ride on his sword.
You know, it only takes Zhou Li and his companions half a day to fly from Hanxi Sect to Xuanling Pavilion with their swords, but if I walk back so slowly, it will take me two days and I may not be able to get there.
However, the words had already been spoken, and now that they had walked out of Hanxi Sect, Hua Shi had no intention of going back to find someone to pick him up. He sighed and threw his fake luggage into Yunxiu Bi's space, then slowly walked out alone.
After leaving Hanxi Sect, they arrived at the downtown area of Hanxi City. Hua Shi called a carriage here and took Jiang Tingwan to sit in the carriage and rest comfortably.
On the way back, looking at the scenery outside the car window, Hua Shi habitually started chatting with the system in his mind.
Although he had already left Hanxi Sect, looking at Jiang Tingwan beside him, Hua Shi couldn't help but think of Wen Zhong who had been in prison for nearly a thousand years.
Hua Shi murmured, "Is that Senior Wen Zhong really the kind of lunatic that Zhou Li described as being extremely evil?"
Fang Wei listened to what he said and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Hua Shi shook his head honestly and said, "I don't know, I just have a feeling. My feeling is very accurate. I have never made a mistake in judging people."
Fang Wei was silent for a moment.
He remembered Hua Shi's criteria for judging people. This person's sensory system was very simple. As long as someone was good-looking, he would not consider him a bad person. As long as someone looked ferocious, he would consider him an evil person.
It is better not to mention this criterion for judgment.
However, Hua Shi should be thankful that he is a son of luck, and there are no evil people around him who have real intentions against him or want to frame him, so he can still be an innocent young man.
Of course, if you really want to talk about it, he was the one who had intentions towards him, but he hid it well, so Hua Shi has not noticed it until now.
Fang Wei collected his thoughts and asked again: "If you think Wen Zhong is not a bad person, then why do you think he killed the disciples of Hanxi Sect back then?"
Hua Shi scratched his head and had no way to answer this question.
However, he did not notice at all that after leaving Hanxi Sect, there was a dark purple diamond-shaped mark behind his ear. The mark was glowing slightly and looked like a star.
At dusk, Hua Shi's carriage arrived at a small town.
They were still about halfway to Xuanling Pavilion, and Hua Shi naturally didn't want to travel day and night. In order to avoid sleeping in the wilderness in the middle of the night, Hua Shi stopped the driver and took Jiang Tingwan to find the best inn in the town, where they rented two rooms and stayed.
After coaxing Jiang Tingwan to sleep, Hua Shi returned to his room and passed by the mirror. He inadvertently caught a glimpse of something behind his ear. He immediately stopped and walked to the mirror suspiciously.
Just as he was about to pick up the mirror to take a closer look, Hua Shi suddenly realized that something on his body was slightly hot. He quickly withdrew his attention from the mirror. After a moment, he took out a talisman, injected spiritual power into it, and said to the talisman: "Zhou Li? Are you contacting me?"
This talisman was something Zhou Li had specially given to Hua Shi not long ago. He said it was a gadget that Tianwen Mountain had just developed not long ago. It could enable people to communicate with each other even if they were thousands of miles apart. Zhou Li asked for a few of them from them and gave them to Hua Shi and Yu Xing. Hua Shi also often used them to contact them during this period.
However, Hua Shi couldn't understand. He had just left Hanxi Sect not long ago. What was there that Zhou Li couldn't say to his face? Why did he have to wait until he left before contacting him using talismans?
Hua Shi asked Zhou Li, but Zhou Li's side seemed to be in great chaos, with all kinds of wind and weapon sounds coming from all over. Hua Shi waited for a while before he heard Zhou Li hurriedly ask him: "Did you notice anything unusual when you left Hanxi Sect?"
Hua Shi didn't understand what he meant, but after thinking carefully, he shook his head: "No, what's wrong?"
Zhou Li paused for a moment, and then finally said in a heavy voice: "The dungeon's ban has been broken, and Wen Zhong is missing."
