Chapter 54 Chapter 54
In the spacious and cozy room, a thin young man was buried in a white quilt, his delicate eyes were filled with silent accusations against this cruel world.
The door of the room was opened, and another tall man walked in with a spring breeze-like smile holding a clay pot. The edge of the pot was steaming, but his hands seemed not to feel the heat at all.
"Yuan, I've put the sheets out to dry in the yard. Hurry up and have some porridge. The porridge in this shop is freshly cooked and is quite famous. I asked my assistant to buy some while I was washing the sheets. Come and have some while they're hot."
Yuan Tian's numb eyes slowly moved to the man, and the next second she suddenly grabbed a pillow and threw it at him.
The man flashed, and the casserole in his hand didn't even shake. The pillow fell to the ground, revealing its owner's weakness.
The smile on his face deepened a little, and he said with a smile: "Be good, eat first. Only when you are full will you have the strength to hit me."
Yuan Tian stared at him resentfully for a long time, and finally sighed in a compromised tone: "Brother Tang, when did you become so shameless?"
Tang Yang smiled without changing his expression. "It probably started last night."
When Yuan Tian mentioned last night, he felt a pain in his lower back as if he was back at the "accident scene". He sighed and sat up slowly.
Unexpectedly, the pain and weakness I had imagined did not come. Except for the soreness and swelling in some places, I did not feel any discomfort at all.
He twisted his waist leisurely, feeling a little sore but healthy. "This is not scientific!"
Although he was a monk, his body was still mortal. He usually didn't recover faster than ordinary people when he was injured or had any illness, so how could this happen...
Based on the tragic "battle" last night, he had already prepared himself mentally for not being able to get out of bed today!
Tang Yang felt a little guilty, so his smile faded a lot. But he put down the porridge and opened the lid while saying, "Drink the porridge while it's hot first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Yuan Tian hummed and moved his nose, but could only smell a little bit of fragrance. He hummed: "They say it's famous, but I can't smell the fragrance from such a close distance. The one my master brews is more fragrant..."
Hearing this, Tang Yang's eyes flickered slightly. Afraid that the child would notice something strange, he turned around and left, "I'll get you some dishes and chopsticks."
If it were any other time, his elder brother Tang would have agreed with him or talked about something else. Yuan Tian pursed his lips and stared at the porridge thoughtfully.
Today's appetite was weaker than yesterday's. Yuan Tian only ate half a bowl and felt full. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and stared at Tang Yang quietly.
The gaze was calm yet sharp and somewhat aggressive.
Looking at the child's silent and indifferent expression, Tang Yang was in a trance for a moment, and recalled the scene when he first saw the child. At that time, Yuan Tian had a cold face, indifferent eyes, polite and distant.
Later, it was a bottle of Coke that brought them closer together.
He smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "In the past, in your Buddhist temple, I told you that we should be honest with each other and communicate in a timely manner if there is anything."
Yuan Tian nodded modestly, "Just remember it."
"I'm not trying to hide it from you," Tang Yang smiled bitterly. After a moment's deliberation, he continued, "You should know that one of the conditions I negotiated with the underworld about becoming the successor to the King of Hell was to allow you to continue living."
"In order to get me to agree faster, the underworld officials also proposed a way to allow you to live forever with me and be able to enter and exit the underworld freely."
"That's what happened." Yuan Tian recalled, but he didn't know much about the power system of the underworld at that time, and the font of the book that recorded the secret method provided by the underworld was too old for him to understand. So he just accompanied him at the side.
Tang Yang took a deep breath, closed his eyes and told the truth: "That secret method has transformed your body. From your power system to your body, you will slowly move closer to the underworld."
"That is to say, your body will become closer and closer to that of the living dead. Your soul will also become more and more like that of a dead soul, and your spiritual power will slowly transition to that of a ghost."
"Once your body is completely transformed, you will be able to transcend the boundary between life and death, and your life span will be unlimited. You will also be able to freely travel between the Yin and Yang worlds, and you will not be like other ghosts who dislike sunlight."
At this point, Tang Yang couldn't help but lower his eyelids, his tone dry: "I have been thinking about how to explain this to you. I'm sorry, I did it without your consent..."
"Who said I didn't agree?"
Tang Yang suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, and saw Yuan Tian said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't I say nothing when you were discussing the conditions? Didn't I agree to it? What's more, immortality! How many people can't get it even if they beg for it! I'm obviously getting a great bargain!"
"That's it...that's it..." Yuan Tian was a little distressed, "I can't eat human delicacies in the future..."
"Don't worry about that!" Tang Yang's face regained some smile, "Your body is currently in a transitional stage. The spiritual power in your body is not converted into ghost power. It cannot break down too much food, so your appetite will become smaller. After a few days, when the transition is completely completed, you will be able to eat again."
"Your body will automatically use its ghost power to break down the food you eat, so it won't have any effect. You can eat as much as you want and however you want!"
The more Yuan Tian listened, the brighter her eyes became. "So good?"
"Not only that," Tang Yang's smile grew wider, his eyes showing the words "seeking credit", "If you get injured in the future, you can also use ghost power to heal it. Your body is both a soul and a spirit."
"Great!" Yuan Tian excitedly threw herself on Tang Yang, swinging around his waist like a koala, "Why didn't you tell me this was the case earlier? Why is it unacceptable? I said I didn't want to go to the bathroom these few days and almost took laxatives."
Tang Yang was stunned for a moment, then quickly held his butt, pursed his lips and smiled: "You don't need to take medicine in the future. I thought... you would be a little angry. After all, I didn't tell you clearly beforehand. But the situation was relatively urgent at the time..."
"Okay, okay!" Yuan Tian interrupted him hastily, "No need to explain, it's okay."
He squeezed his legs together, "Then this technique must have consumed a lot of your strength, right? Does it have no effect on you?"
Tang Yang's throat moved, feeling the pinch from his waist, and his voice became a little hoarse: "Yes."
After saying that, he hugged Yuan Tian and took her to the bed.
"Hey, hey, what's going on! You...you're not done yet..."
"No, I'm a little angry, really! You..."
“Hey, don’t…”
…
That afternoon, Xiao Jing, who had agreed to stay with his master for a few more days, was urgently called back by Yuan Tian.
When the little ghost first floated into the villa yard, he saw two large sheets and looked curious: "Why do these sheets look like they have just been washed?"
The master who escorted him back and came to see his apprentice was thinking about something. He looked at the sunset in the distance, then at the wet sheets, and his old face turned red.
He coughed calmly and led Xiao Jing into the house.
The door of the villa was not closed. As soon as he entered, he saw Yuan Tian, who was lying on the sofa like a cartilaginous animal, and Tang Yang, who was lowering his head and massaging his waist.
"Cough!" The master coughed loudly. Before he could say anything, he saw the little boy next to him flying to the end of the sofa and floating above Yuan Tian's body with an anxious and worried look on his face.
"Boss, why are you so weak? Is it because the method of the underworld is not good enough? Or is it because your body was too badly damaged last time? Brother Tang, why didn't you tell me? If I had known, I would have stayed at home..."
"I'm not weak!"
This sentence interrupted Xiao Jing's chattering. Yuan Tian's cheeks flushed slightly. She sat up straight and called out to the old man behind Xiao Jing: "Master."
The master was not overjoyed by the unusual well-behaved young disciple. Instead, he glared at him with disappointment, and then glared at Tang Yang who looked innocent and cold.
"He's ignorant and you're not sensible either, right? How dare you have sex with him when he's fully recovered!"
The old man pointed at his future boss and said angrily, "That's the only thing on your mind, right? You're the future King of Hell, and you don't even have this little self-control?"
Tang Yang lowered his head more and more as he was scolded, which seemed to indicate that he was sincerely trying to do good.
Yuan Tian couldn't bear it any longer, so he tugged at his master's sleeve, and said with a guilty and pitiful look, "I couldn't help it..."
"You are still protecting him!" The master became even angrier and pointed his finger at Yuan Tian, but after seeing the sincere and innocent big eyes of his little disciple, he swallowed all the words back into his stomach.
Staring at each other.
After a while, the master finally found his voice: "Did you really just not help yourself?"
Yuan Tian nodded cautiously: "I still have shopping records here. Do you want to see them?"
The master was confused: "What did you buy?"
"Condoms, handcuffs, oil..." Yuan Tian knew them all.
Tang Yang almost couldn't help laughing out loud, his heart felt so warm that honey seemed to be oozing out - the way his boyfriend tried so hard to protect him was so adorable!
"Alright, alright!" The master glared at Tang Yang unhappily, then glared at his own disciple, "Why didn't I notice that you were so good before! Others are vying to suppress others, but you are the one who takes the initiative to be suppressed! Look at how worthless you are!"
Yuan Tian curled her lips and muttered quietly: "I want to be valuable too. Isn't this quite... comfortable?"
The master who heard his words clearly: “…………”
Tang Yang, who also heard it clearly, said: "...Pfft."
The master was almost unable to glare at me anymore.
Xiao Jing came over with a pure look on her face: "What do you mean comfortable? Boss, what did you do? What are those oils and condoms? Is it fun?"
"Go away, it's none of your business." The master waved his hand unhappily.
Then he seemed to remember something and waved his hand: "It seems to be something about you."
Xiao Jing looked up with bright eyes, and Yuan Tian and Tang Yang also turned their gazes to the Master.
"You asked me to take care of his soul and make up for what he was missing. I helped him take care of his soul, but I don't think it's necessary to make up for it."
Yuan Tian's face changed slightly, he looked at Tang Yang, and then they both turned their gazes to Xiao Jing who had a confused look on his face.
Seeing the expressions of the three of them, the master sighed softly: "Your senior brother should have told you that this little ghost was tortured in his life and did not die a good death. Although he has deep resentment, it has dissipated a lot over the years. Maybe it is not a bad thing to forget the past. Now it has been at least hundreds of years since he was alive. If his soul is restored, his memory may also return. It will not do him any good."
Yuan Tian couldn't help but look at Xiao Jing. This kid looked so naive and ignorant that it was impossible to tell what he was thinking from his stupid expression.
"What do you think?" he asked.
Xiao Jing shook his head nonchalantly: "We agreed that the boss will protect me from now on. Whatever the boss says is what I will do."
Yuan Tian felt more relaxed, "What about the boss telling you not to watch TV?"
"This won't do!" Xiao Jing flew in front of the TV and protected it tightly, "This is the bridge for my studies!"
Yuan Tian felt heavy-hearted again.
Tang Yang stroked his hair soothingly: "It's okay, our family can still afford the electricity bill."
Yuan Tian snorted and muttered, "A loving mother often spoils her child..."
Tang Yang's smile became even brighter.
The master looked at the ceiling silently. He shouldn't have come here!
"Ahem!" The old man solemnly reminded the two young men of his presence, and then said, "Speaking of Xiao Jing, when I mentioned the name 'Mo Weian' to your senior brother the other day, he seemed a little strange."
Mo Weian was the person that the evil spirit Yu Qingfeng was looking for. That person was likely to have an unclear relationship with Yu Qingfeng, and it was very likely that the two had an emotional entanglement.
Tang Yang had previously lied to Yu Qingfeng, saying that Mo Kaize was Mo Weian, causing Yu Qingfeng to look for him everywhere. But in fact, no one knew whether these two people were the same person.
Now that the person has not been found, Xiao Jing reacts to the name. Yuan Tian frowned and looked at Xiao Jing who looked uncomfortable: "Do you know him?"
"I can't remember." Xiao Jing said honestly, "It's just that I feel very uncomfortable when I hear this name."
"That means you knew each other before you died." Yuan Tian touched his chin, "But I see, Yu Qingfeng and you don't seem to be familiar with each other at all."
"That's what I said," Xiao Jing touched his chin, imitating Yuan Tian's behavior. "Boss, do you think it's possible that Yu Qingfeng and I have never met, but we both have that kind of relationship with Mo Weian?"
Yuan Tian hesitated, "You mean, a love triangle?"
"It's more likely to be another..." Tang Yang said lightly, but swallowed his words back halfway through.
But except for Xiao Jing, everyone else understood. Suddenly, Yuan Tian and Master looked unhappy.
pedophilia.
When he thought of this word, Yuan Tian's heart was not only smoldering with anger, but his eyes also turned colder. However, thinking that these things could only be confirmed after catching Mo Kaize, he suppressed his anger.
Xiao Jing was clueless. He touched his chin and said excitedly, "According to the TV series, we are in a love triangle. I am Mo Weian's little canary. We are together through life and death, and we will be together through life and death, in heaven and on earth..."
"Yu Qingfeng is a male mistress. He couldn't get Mo Weian's love, and he was unwilling to die, so he turned into a ghost and kept looking for him..."
The master's mouth twitched when he heard this: "What did you usually show him?"
Yuan Tian tilted her head, "Ah? It's just a TV show. But, the melodrama comes from real life, maybe what Xiao Jing said is true?"
The master sneered: "I prefer to believe that this is just a coincidence. This is not the same as that."
Yuan Tian disagreed. There were not so many coincidences in the world. But before he could refute, he was interrupted by Tang Yang.
"It's getting late, Master... Master, let's go out for dinner together."
Xiao Jing immediately came over and raised his hand high: "I want to drink Coke! I haven't had it for a few days, I miss it so much!"
"Brother Tang, Master, shall we eat pickled fish? I want something appetizing..."
"Yuan, you should eat something light. Your body hasn't been completely transformed yet, and you're still half mortal. Last night and today..."
"Okay, shut up! I just want to eat pickled fish, and I want it spicy!"
"I want some too, Boss. I want two cans of Coke, no, three cans..."
…
Looking at the two noisy people and one ghost, the master couldn't help but shook his head, but a slightly doting smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his lips.
Although the cabbage I raised with great care was eaten by my own free-range pigs, but...
Doesn't look bad either.
