Chapter 38: Awakening from a Dream, Falling into the Ice Abyss Again

The bandage fell off, revealing a pupil as bright as his left eye. Nan Fuguang's eyes were less aggressive than those of a peerless beauty like Lu Sang. They looked clean and clear, as if they were always filled with a pool of sweet mountain spring water.

Yan Ji'an's heart moved slightly, and there was finally a hint of emotion in his eyes. He almost wanted to lean over and hug the person in front of him -

However, he did not do so. Instead, his hand hanging by his side moved slightly, very restrainedly and unnoticeably.

He sat down next to Nan Fuguang and whispered to her that he had not stood idly by at the Da Ri Mine the day before, and asked her to wait patiently. He naturally did what he said.
"Since we met today, I will naturally take Ri Ri away from here. The three realms and six paths are full of complicated sentient beings. Remember not to leave the sect in anger again in the future."

Nan Fuguang saw that he hit the point and was a little surprised that she walked out of the red flower on her own, but in Yan Jian'an's mouth, everything was arranged by him?
Putting aside his doubts for the moment and shaking his head, Nan Fuguang said: "Master, I am not here to escape the predicament of the Sun Mine. I really have something to tell you. Please go to Miyue Mountain immediately after you know it today and inform the Immortal Alliance--"

Yan Jian stopped her from continuing with his eyes.

He turned to look at Lu Sang, who obeyed his command with just a look and skipped out of the room. When he came back, he was followed by a middle-aged man with ragged clothes, a bruised face and missing teeth.

As he approached, the room, which was originally filled with the cool fragrance of Yan Ji'an, was immediately replaced by the foul smell that came from not taking a bath for several years.

The moment Nan Fuguang saw him, her brows twisted together. She wondered how Yan Ji'an got acquainted with such a rough guy and brought him to her. Just as she was about to ask, the man laughed and rubbed his hands, leaned forward, and bowed in the direction of Yan Ji'an and Nan Fuguang like a chicken pecking at rice, and greeted them.

As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, the smell of alcohol and rotten teeth wafted into his nose. Nan Fuguang frowned even more tightly, and his mysophobia came into play. He was about to yell at the man to get out, but he heard Yunshang Xianzun calmly say behind him: "Ri Ri, give him the red flower you are carrying."

Nan Fuguang initially thought there was something wrong with his ears.

After a while of reacting, he turned his head as if he was about to break his head, and stared at Yan Ji'an with wide eyes in disbelief and horror, as if it was the first day he met him.

"Hehe, yes, Fairy Sister! Then, give me the red flower. I have heard from this fairy before that whoever gets the red flower can find a job in the Great Sun Mine!"
The man opened his mouth, his green bean-like eyeballs kept rolling in his eye sockets, and he leaned forward slightly, looking like he really wanted to get the red flower.
He was so excited that he spoke incoherently.
"I heard about this from people at the Black Mountain morning market before, and I thought it was just a legend, but now it seems to be true! I am already an adult now, and I used to have a house and good farmland. I have both a son and a daughter, but a few years ago I suddenly developed some little hobbies, and I was unlucky... Oh, that's really sad! I didn't want it to be like this. My little child was so young, wouldn't I feel sad to hand him over to Wangtou from the next village? It hurts so much! But I always feel that it's just a matter of rolling the dice, and sooner or later I will have to make up for it and take my little child back? I was fooled by the banker! Now, I have to sell my land and owe countless debts. Those people make it difficult for me to survive every day, and they want to break my arms and legs. I really have nowhere to hide, it's really miserable!"

This man is full of nonsense and stinks to cover up the fact that he is addicted to gambling and has become a stinking mud, selling his children...
He then changed the subject and continued to talk about his longing for the Dayi Mine. By entering the mine, he could get rid of the debt collectors and find a way to make a living. Even if he could never get out, he was willing to do so.

——Yan Jian was thoughtful and found a perfect scapegoat for her.

He said he would find a way.
I really thought about it.
The person in front of him now is the one who came up with the solution from Yunshang Immortal Venerable.

If Nan Fuguang still had only a vague understanding of the Dayi Mine like she did a few days ago, and didn't know its true cannibalistic nature, and only regarded it as an ordinary place of asceticism where ordinary mortals would be locked up and do hard labor for the rest of their lives, then now she would probably think that it was not too much to let such a person enter the mine for her.

Pity.

She had witnessed with her own eyes a scene that looked like an Asura devil crawling out of hell.
Even if one were the most despicable and vicious person in the world, going to the Great Sun Mine would be considered a punishment more terrible than going to hell.

Cold sweat dripped down her forehead. Her eyes were empty. Under Yan Jian's calm gaze and the gambler's eager expectation, her head was buzzing and she shook her head numbly. She stood up and shook her head again. She said firmly, "No."

Yan Ji'an frowned silently.

Nan Fuguang turned to him, lowered his head slightly, looked into those eyes that vaguely showed displeasure, and repeated firmly: "No, I don't agree."

"Riri, don't be willful." Yan Ji'an said, "Master knows that although you seem to be out of tune, you are actually kind-hearted and can't bear to see others suffer for you, but look at this person——"

He looked at the gambler, who nodded "yes" repeatedly and shouted, "I deserve it! I deserve it! I, Xue Pinggui, will spend my whole life mining in the Sun Mine to pay off my debts and live alone forever! Fairy sister, fairy sister, please be kind! Those debt collectors are really trying to kill me!"

He fell to his knees with a plop, kowtowed, and shouted at Nan Fuguang to give him a chance to live.

At this time, Lu Sang, who was standing aside, also stepped forward and persuaded in a soft voice: "Senior sister, please think about it again. This man sold his wife and children. His character is despicable. There is really no need for sympathy... Don't be too kind."

"What do you mean by kind?" Nan Fuguang dodged the man's kick and shouted in shock, "I'm not kind!"

Lu Sang Wenyan glanced at the crying ruffian, and a flash of disgust flashed across his eyes for such a lowly and despicable creature. He even used a kind tone of persuasion: "In my opinion, let him take the red flower and be imprisoned in the Big Sun Mine for the rest of your life. It is better for him to wander around the mortal world and harm others and himself."

There were four people in the room, three of them surrounded her, begging, persuading, or silently trying to force her to confess with their eyes. Nan Fuguang stood among them, feeling isolated and helpless for a moment, her hands and feet were cold, and she opened her mouth, wanting to shout that things were not as simple as they imagined.

The Great Sun Mine is simply a——

When the words were on the tip of her tongue, she turned her head and the moment she looked into Shang Yan Jian'an's eyes, she felt as if she had fallen into a dark and bottomless abyss. Suddenly, her mind became clear and she shuddered.

Cold sweat formed on her forehead and soaked her back. She could hardly suppress her trembling and asked in a trembling voice, "Master, do you know what happened in the Great Sun Mine?"

Yan Ji'an paused for a moment and said calmly: "It depends on what you mean."

Nan Fuguang hated the way he always looked calm and composed, so she clenched her fist and wanted to slam the door and leave - but before she could take a step, the door of the wing room slammed shut in front of her with a bang!
Nan Fuguang's body stiffened and he turned his head. Yan Ji'an raised his eyelids and said, "Ri Ri, give him the flowers."

There was a tone in his voice that brooked no refusal.

Nan Fuguang’s face turned pale. He bit his lower lip tightly and shook his head quickly.

At this time, seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Lu Sang bravely stepped forward and pulled Nan Fuguang, persuading her to calm down first.

"You can't keep thinking about disobeying Master at this time, Senior Sister. Master knows that you won't agree easily, and he has spent some time to find this person who deserves to be punished. It's really troublesome... Don't be petty and go against him on such a critical issue and hurt his heart..." Nan Fuguang almost collapsed at that moment. He shook off Lu Sang's hand as if he had been electrocuted and roared at her: "Why are you petty! What do you know?! You know nothing! The Dayi Mine is by no means an ordinary place. The monk supervisors in it disregard the law, slaughter mortal miners, drink human blood, and eat human flesh! Lu Sang, you were also born a mortal. Can you empathize with the despair of mortals who are unarmed? In addition to the persecution of the monks, there is also the Black Crack Sky Ore, which is not mined. In the mine, there is an ancient beast of unknown origin locked up——"

"Day and day!"

Yan Jian suddenly raised his voice and tried to interrupt her.

Nan Fuguang couldn't stop.

Her mind was blank, she really couldn't stop at all, even her nails dug into her palms without feeling any pain, the depression and fear she had been feeling for the past few days burst out in an instant!
"The origin of this vicious beast is unknown. It is as high as a cloud blocking the sun. It has wings and scales. Anyone who sees its one eye will fall into fear and madness, and destroy themselves!"

"——Nan Fuguang! Shut up!"

The Immortal Master Yunshang shouted angrily!
However, it was too late. The eldest senior sister of the Yuntian Sect turned her head and glanced at him with her eyes that were bright and breathtaking due to tears. Her bloodless face was filled with complete despair.

Realizing that Yan Jian probably already knew everything, something in her heart was completely defeated and collapsed... The fear that attacked her heart made her almost unable to hear her own voice. Her heart was pounding wildly. She roared and counted everything she had seen and heard in the Dayi Mine. She watched Lu Sang change from persuasion to confusion and finally to unbelievable, and then looked at the gambler...
I was so scared that I collapsed to the ground.

"Xian, Xianjia! This is not the same as the excellent gambling debt holy land you described earlier!"

Nan Fuguang didn't care about what others did and was about to leave. However, when she found that she couldn't open the closed door, the desperate curse she shouted turned into a sharp fox cry.

In the side room, except for Yan Ji'an, everyone else - including Nan Fuguang himself - were shocked and all their emotions stopped.

Nan Fuguang's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the backs of his hands that were holding the bolt quickly covered with the beast's fur, his skin burning from being pulled...

The gown became loose, the neckline falling from her shoulders.

His sight fell rapidly along with his body shape changes, and Nan Fuguang fell heavily to the ground!

When footsteps were heard outside the door, the person outside came in uninvited and easily pushed open the door of the wing room that Nan Fuguang had failed to open. A red little fox with four legs and a tail tip that was a little white like snow came out from among the pile of yellow miners' robes beside the door and screamed and jumped into his arms!
The butcher was pounced upon by the little fox and almost lost his balance. When he lowered his head, the little fox happened to rush into his arms with tears in his eyes.

Not only did she wipe the tears or snot on his chest, but her pointed ears also brushed across the tip of his nose.

The butcher sneezed, held the door with one hand, and held the little fox that was trying to struggle with the other hand. He stopped, lowered his eyes and looked around. Seeing the chaos in the room, he narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly curled his lips and chuckled.

"I knew this trip would not be what she wanted."

He flicked his fingers and kicked the little fox's wet nose with his legs, which in return made it scream wildly in protest. It bared its sharp white teeth and stretched out its head to bite him.

The butcher dodged the attack calmly and made a casual "tsk" sound.

At this time, not far away, the voice of Yunshang Xianzun finally rang out. His tone was several times colder than before. He said indifferently, "It's you again."

After the noodle stall, this was probably the meeting between the Yunshang Immortal and the butcher.

The butcher raised his eyes and glanced at the former. Ordinary mortals would all worship or stand in awe of the Immortal Master Yunshang, but there was no trace of these on him. He just said "hmm" and raised his hand to touch the tip of his nose.

He smiled and asked, "Now that I am here, Lord Immortal, why don't you return this ferocious fox to me?"

It's called an inquiry, but it's actually a notification.

Yan Ji'an wanted to refuse immediately, but when the words came to his lips, he was somewhat surprised to find that he couldn't say it no matter what -

It was not that he was silenced by the amazing high-level technique, but his will was instinctively suspended, wanting to agree with him.

Slightly surprised, he didn't understand why, and looked at the butcher with more curiosity...
However, no matter how Yan Ji'an observed, the person in front of him was nothing more than an ordinary mortal.

He brushed his sleeves, picked up the half-cold tea beside him and brought it to his lips, sipped it gently, and said calmly after a long while: "She is really impulsive in her daily behavior. You have been with her for a few days. Even if you have poor knowledge and cannot read and write, you should try to persuade her a little."

The butcher said nothing.

On the contrary, the little fox lying in the butcher's arms moved its ears and stood them up, as if it couldn't believe that Yunshang Xianzun would still give a lecture in such a change of events.

If this wasn't enough to make it feel as if it was falling into an icy abyss.

Yan Ji'an put down his teacup and finally looked over from afar. Facing his disciple who had completely transformed into a beast and was looking over at him, he did not make any move...
Not surprised, nor panicked.

His voice was gentle, just like the tone he used when he had to clean up the mess helplessly after she had been naughty countless times as a child.

"RiRi, you really shouldn't say so much. Do you still have the Time Turner? Use it."
