Tang Yu's words made me feel a little ashamed.
At this moment, Dong Han leaned close to my ear and giggled."You've been taught a lesson. You deserve it! You still want me to stand out? No way!”
I glared at him fiercely, gritted my teeth, and whispered,"Dong Han, just you wait. Don't get into my hands.”
"How is it?" Dong Han had a smug look on his face. Bite me if you dare!"
" You!..." I couldn't be bothered to say anything more. I grabbed his arm and really bit it.
"Aiyo!" Dong Han covered her arm and looked at me sadly." Ye Fan, are you a dog?”
I laughed." That's because you asked me to bite you. Such a cheap request, I'll definitely satisfy you!"”
"Ye Fan! You…" He looked at Tang Yu angrily and said aggrievedly,""Tang Yu, look at Ye Fan. He's biting me like a dog!”
" Ye Fan, Dong Han, you two…" Tang Yu looked at the two of us and shook his head helplessly."You two are really two clowns! However, Dong Han, Ye Fan is only 16 years old after all. He's still a child. Don't lower yourself to his level and try to give in to him. "But Ye Fan, I say that you're young, but you're actually already a half-grown child. Don't really be like a child. Be more attentive, understand?”
Dong Han and I shook our heads in embarrassment and replied weakly,"Got it."
This was good. It was equivalent to giving each of them fifty strokes of the stick. No one paid attention to them, and no one made a sound.
Until the old man finished cooking three vegetarian dishes and a few steamed buns and served them to the table.
The old man called us to eat and said,"You can't go up the mountain, and you can't enter the Non-Phase Village because it's haunted!……”
The old man's following story was similar to Tang Yu's. He couldn't explain what had happened in the village after the earthquake and why no one who had entered the village had returned. Moreover, every year on the night of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Non-Phase Village on the mountain would be brightly lit, and firecrackers and gongs and drums would be heard. However, no one had come down from the mountain. Those who went in curiously and those who went in to look for people had never come out. Of course, this included the fire brigade and medical team that had rescued the earthquake back then.
After that, no one dared to go up the mountain.
In the end, the old man asked us who we were going to look for in the Non-Phase Village. Maybe he still knows them. It's just that it's been ten years. Who knows if they're still alive?
"No matter what happened there, we must go up the mountain tomorrow morning to check if anyone is still alive.”Tang Yu said firmly.
"Aren't you afraid that you'll be like those missing people and never come back?”The grandpa asked in surprise.
" Don't worry," Tang Yu said with a smile." We'll definitely come back."”
The grandpa shook his head and sighed. Then, he got up and went into the house.
Only the three of us were left at the square table. I said softly,"It does sound like a ghost, but it's definitely not a simple ghost. But what's the problem? What does this earthquake have to do with ghosts?”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" " If it was an ordinary haunted house," Dong Han said disapprovingly," the other mages would've dealt with it long ago. Why would they bother Tang Yu?"”
"What nonsense? I'm analyzing the connection between them, okay?”I said unwillingly.
"Tsk! With your middle school student level, it would be a ghost if you could analyze it!”Dong Han said contemptuously.
"What's wrong with middle school students? I…"
"Alright, alright. Can't the two of you stop arguing and get along?”Tang Yu said with some blame.
Dong Han and I looked at each other and snorted coldly. We ignored each other.
At this moment, the Bi Fang Bird that had been invisible on my shoulder suddenly appeared and said leisurely,"Friendship comes from quarreling, so quarreling is healthier!”
"Disappear!" Dong Han and I shouted at the same time.
The Bifang Bird humphed in dissatisfaction and then disappeared.
Tang Yu looked at us, helplessly shaking his head and sighing.
At this moment, the old man came out from the inner room and said to us,"I've already tidied up the inner room, but there's only one bed. I'm afraid it's not enough for the three of you. Uh, only one of you can sleep on the floor or squeeze with me?”
With that, the old man led us into the house.
The room wasn't big, and the furnishings were simple. There was an old wooden cabinet and a table with peeling paint, as well as a small wooden bed. It was narrower than a double bed and wider than a single bed. The bedding was obviously just changed, and the floor had just been cleaned.
"Thank you for the trouble.”Tang Yu thanked the grandpa.
The grandpa waved his hand." You're welcome. It's just that my place is only this big. It depends on how you arrange it.”
I didn't even think about it and said,"I'll sleep on the floor."”
"No, I'll sleep on the floor. You two can squeeze together.”Tang Yu said.
"Don't mind me. I'll sleep on the floor and the two of you can sleep on the same bed.”Dong Han looked at me with a faint smile." If I squeeze into the same bed as him, I might kick him off after I fall asleep."”
"I think so too. I might kick him out of bed in my sleep, so I slept on the floor…"
"Forget it." Tang Yu sighed." Dong Han should sleep on the floor. I'll sleep with Ye Fan."”
Then, Dong Han took a blanket from the old man and laid it on the ground not far from the bed before falling asleep.
The Bi Fang Bird flew to the bed and went to sleep.
Tang Yu asked me to sleep first. He wanted to draw talismans and sleep later.
To be honest, I've been really tired these few days. I haven't been eating or sleeping well because of what happened in the Demon Gathering Valley. Now that I'm full, I naturally fall asleep as soon as I touch my pillow.
However, it seemed that just as I fell asleep, I had a dream. I dreamed of that man who was emitting golden light all over his body. He was wearing golden armor and had an ancient sword on his back. His back was facing me as he stood in the clouds with his hands behind his back.
He still spoke in a mature and ancient voice, but there was a hint of urgency in his tone."Quickly awaken. The person you're destined to be has been waiting for you for a long time!”
I suddenly woke up and saw that the night was still dark outside the window. Tang Yu was still standing in front of the table, concentrating on drawing talismans. A thick stack of yellow talismans had already fallen by the table.
I sat up and wanted to persuade him to stop drawing talismans at this late hour and go to sleep. However, as soon as I said it, it became,"You've already drawn so many talismans, are you afraid that it's not enough?”
Tang Yu stopped writing and turned to look at me. He smiled and said,""Draw more talismans, it's better to be prepared. I'm not sleepy anyway. It's still early. Go back to sleep."
"But…I don't think I can sleep.”I had this strange dream twice, so naturally, I felt uneasy. It would be strange if I could fall asleep again!
"Why can't I sleep?" Tang Yu asked.
Thus, I repeated this strange dream twice, as well as the scene in the dream and what the golden-armored man said, to Tang Yu.
"Then…other than that, did the person in your dream say anything else?”Tang Yu didn't look too good. His expression was complicated and strange.
"That's all." I shook my head. "Do you think this dream really has a meaning?" he asked. Because in the dream, he told me to wake up faster. He also said that the person I was destined to be with had been waiting for me for a long time, and it was very hard. But what should I awaken? Who is the person I am destined to be with? Where was he? With these questions, how can I still sleep?”
" Ye Fan..." Tang Yu hesitated for a moment before asking,""What do you think your destined person will be like?”
I thought for a moment and replied,"It should be a beautiful, good-looking, gentle, considerate, generous, kind-hearted, and filial girl."”
Tang Yu was stunned for a moment before he smiled." This is a beautiful wish that all the men in the world have for their other half. I sincerely wish you the best for achieving your wish as soon as possible."”
After saying that, Tang Yu turned around and looked at the moon outside the window.
The moonlight tonight was not very bright, but it looked very bleak, just like his bleak and lonely back.
Although I didn't understand why my heart suddenly ached, I felt that I should say something. However, after thinking about it, I didn't know what to say, so I just advised him to sleep for a while.
But he said that he wasn't sleepy and asked me to continue sleeping.
I could only lie down and turn over to try to fall asleep, but I couldn't.
After a while, I turned around and looked at Tang Yu's back as he looked at the moon. I said somewhat embarrassedly,""Um…I really can't sleep. Why don't you sleep with me?”
Tang Yu turned around and nodded with a smile.
I tried my best to move inside, wanting to leave more space for him. However, the bed was only so big. When I moved in, my back was pressed against the cold wall.
"I only need a little space. As for you, don't stick close to me. You'll catch a cold easily.”Tang Yu saw that I was still leaning against the wall, so he pulled me out.
" But..." I said, somewhat embarrassed,""I'm worried that I won't sleep well. If you sleep on the side, you'll be easily squeezed down by me.”
Tang Yu smiled and shook his head." It's alright. Go to sleep."”
Then, he took off his white robe, revealing an ancient-style white undergarment. After covering me with the blanket, he lay with his back facing me.
With him by my side, I felt a lot more at ease and quickly fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already slightly white outside the window.
However, what shocked me, embarrassed me, and made it difficult for me to accept was that I was actually lying in Tang Yu's arms. I was hugging him with one hand and resting one leg on his leg. As for him, he was looking up at the roof with a red face.
"Oh my god!" I sat up abruptly." Why, why am I sleeping like this? Why, why didn't you push me away?”
Tang Yu let out a long sigh." I know you've been very tired these past few days. Seeing that you're sleeping so soundly, I was afraid that I would wake you up, so I let you sleep like this."”
I scratched my head awkwardly." That…I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I, I've always been dishonest in my sleep…"
"You don't have to explain. It's okay as long as you sleep well.”Tang Yu said as he got up to get dressed.
"Aiya, you're finally awake. I'm exhausted from pretending to be asleep.”Dong Han sat up and stretched. She looked at us with a faint smile." Actually, I woke up before dawn, but seeing you guys sleeping like this, I really didn't want to disturb you, so I could only pretend to be asleep! How is it? I'm still very understanding, right?”
I looked at Tang Yu and complained,""You know that he's awake. Even if he wakes me up, he has to push me away. How can we let him see us sleeping like this?”
Tang Yu looked at me innocently." I really don't know.”
"How is that possible?" "Aren't you an immortal?" How could he not even know if a person was really asleep?”
"Ye Fan, you can't blame Tang Yu for this.”Dong Han said leisurely," Although Tang Yu is an immortal with a thousand years of cultivation, I'm also a person with five hundred years of cultivation. I don't dare to say anything else, but he might not be able to detect things like hiding, changing my aura, and pretending to be asleep." Moreover, looking at Tang Yu's appearance, it's very likely that he was shocked by your strange sleeping position until he was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, so he couldn't think straight. So, it's normal that he didn't know.”
I was stunned for a moment and felt that Dong Han was right. Then, I looked at Tang Yu.
Tang Yu didn't utter a word. He walked to the table and started packing up the talismans he drew last night.
