Chapter Twenty-Three: A Shameful Opponent
An Fei slowly opened his eyes, in the realm of Hinayana Zen, the six senses of people are very keen, and when the black shadow approached An Fei's door, it was already felt by An Fei. γReading.comγ
The door opened silently, and An Fei also quietly lay on the bed, and deliberately made an even breathing sound, the black shadow waited for a moment, slowly walked to An Fei's bed, groped twice in the corner of the bed, and then turned around and walked out.
When the dark shadow closed the door, An Fei sat up from the bed, jumped out of bed gently, and walked to the door to listen to the movement outside.
The dark shadow was clearly not a connoisseur, he was just careful enough, the floor creaked beneath his feet from time to time, his breathing was too heavy, and he almost touched a decorative vase to the ground as he went upstairs.
Seeing the other party's hurried movements, An Fei sneered, in fact, he was fully capable of keeping the other party, but the whole thing was weird, and before he figured out the cause and effect, An Fei didn't want to startle the snake.
An Fei followed the other party to the fourth floor, and after seeing the other party enter a room, An Fei slid against the wall, quietly listening to the sounds in the room.
Someone inside was whispering, and through a door, An Fei couldn't hear anything clearly, and it seemed that he should make a simple bug
Five minutes later, Anfei was back in his room, and he lifted his futon, where an orange-red broad bean-sized pearl-like object was lying between the futons, emitting a strange colored light.
What is this? An Fei was stunned, stretched out his finger and flicked it lightly, and when he saw that there was nothing abnormal, he put the colored bead in his palm, and thought about various possibilities while playing with it.
After a few moments, Ann Fei put the bead in his arms, turned and walked out, walked to Ernest's door, and knocked softly.
"Is it Anfei?" said Ernest's voice from inside the door.
"It's me, Uncle Ernest, I'm sorry to disturb you. β
"What do you say, silly boy?" Ernest smiled as he opened the door.
"Uncle Ernest, how do you know it's me?"
"It's hard to guess, no one here dares to knock on my door, Thor, he never knocked on the door when he looked for me, so it's just you. Ernest laughed loudly, and immediately said, "An Fei, if you don't come to me, I want to go to you, thank you!"
"Uncle Ernest, what are you thanking me for?" Anfei asked in surprise.
"Your swordsmanship has inspired me a lot. Ernest said slowly: "Let me see another way in the confusion! I believe that after a while, my swordsmanship will improve by leaps and bounds! At that time, maybe I can go to take revenge!"
"Where I know how to do swordsmanship, it's all played by that weird old man in our village. An Fei smiled shyly.
"No, you can't say that!I have a feeling, the weird old man in your mouth is a rare powerhouse!" Ernest said solemnly: "He is also a great sword master at the very least, and he has even broken through the realm of the great sword master, An Fei, if you have the opportunity, you must find him!"
"Uncle Ernest, do you want to compete with him in swordsmanship?"
"I, how can I be his opponent!" Ernest smiled bitterly, if the other party has the same level of fighting spirit as himself, winning or losing is an irreversible thing, even a child like An Fei can shock himself, then how terrible should the old man's swordsmanship be?!
"But I can't remember where my home is. An Fei lowered his head.
"I'll remember it later. Ernest comforted, "By the way, Anfei, are you looking for me?" "Uncle Ernest, what do you think this is?" Anfei took out the colored beads.
"This is" Ernest's eyes were a little straight, and he snatched the colored beads and looked at them seriously for a moment: "Anfei, where did you get it?"
"Someone gave it to me. Anfei laughed and said, "Uncle Ernest, what is this?"
"Someone gave it to you, no way!" Ernest shook his head, "This is the magic crystal of the dark dragon!"
"Are the dragon's magic crystals rare?"
"It's not rare, but it's only one! It should be in Thor's" Ernest's gaze fell on Anfei: "Anfei, what the hell is going on? You tell me from beginning to end!"
An Fei told everything about the matter, and even told him about following the other party, without any concealment, Ernest lowered his head and muttered for a moment, and said: "An Fei, what do you think?" Ernest had already vaguely guessed the other party's intentions, and he deliberately asked An Fei to let An Fei learn to think and learn to recognize the sinister of people's hearts.
"Uncle Ernest, you just said this is the teacher's stuff?"
"Yes. Ernest nodded: "The dark dragon is a very terrifying dark creature, what it is best at is space magic, as far as I know, among all the dark creatures, only the dark dragon can tear through space without any medium, with its own magic alone, and break into another plane." The magic crystal of the dark dragon is very helpful to Thor, and it is also Thor's most cherished treasure!"
"Then I'll know what's going on. An Fei laughed.
"Tell me about it. Ernest encouraged.
"Someone stole the teacher's treasure and deliberately put it under my bed, and when the teacher noticed that something was missing, they deliberately took it out of my bed, and then I became a thief. An Fei laughed.
"Is this your opinion?" Ernest was a little surprised: "Have you thought about it, and why did they frame you?"
"Because Mr. Saul was so good to me. An Fei sighed softly: "Uncle Ernest, you also saw yesterday how Miss Niya treated me, in fact, there are some words you don't seem to have heard before, she is also a victim, and it was someone else who instigated her to interrogate me." β
"And what do you want to do?"
"Uncle Ernest, the teacher was too careless, such a treasure should be collected, how can someone steal it?"
"Then you're thinking wrong!" Ernest laughed: "How could Thor be so careless?!You can't sense it, in fact, Thor has already arranged a secret magic array on this magic crystal, and also arranged a corresponding magic array in the collection room, as long as the distance between the two magic arrays is more than a hundred meters, the magic array will be activated immediately, so no one can leave with this magic crystal!" And this magic crystal is a living coordinate, do you think anyone can avoid the pursuit of a space archmage while carrying the coordinates with them?"
"I see!" An Fei said with a sudden realization.
"Anfei, tell me what you want to do?" Ernest changed the subject again.
"I have some thoughts that I'm embarrassed to say. An Fei scratched his scalp.
"What's embarrassing about it?" said Ernest urgently.
"We'll return the magic crystal to Mr. Thor now, the person who framed me is likely to notice something, and if he changes his mind, it will be a little difficult to do" An Fei said slowly: "Uncle Ernest, this person can steal the teacher's most cherished treasure, he should be someone the teacher trusts very much, right?"
Ernest nodded.
"So, we have to stay calm as if nothing had happened. An Fei smiled: "Let him frame me desperately, when he thinks he is driving me into a corner, he is actually forcing himself into a desperate situation!"
"And then you need me to testify for you?" Ernest laughed, "Not a bad idea." β
"No, Uncle Ernest, things always speak louder than words, and physical evidence always speaks louder than human evidence. An Fei shook his head: "I think, he will definitely do everything possible to provoke the teacher's anger and make the teacher's emotions out of control, so that I don't have a chance to refute and explain, Uncle Ernest, if you show up to testify against me at this time, it may make the teacher think that you are protecting me, and then we won't be able to explain clearly." "An Fei took a 'we' bite at a time, and he wanted to drag Ernest into the water.
"I'm a little confused" Ernest sighed, "Anfei, do you think Thor will trust them and not me when I take the magic crystal to testify for you??"
"No one can make an accurate judgment about what didn't happen. An Fei said slowly: "However, there is this possibility, since it is possible, then we can't take risks." β
"What the hell do you want to do?" said Ernest, who was getting more and more confused.
"It's simple, when they come to me with the teacher, Uncle Ernest, you can quietly send the magic crystal to a room on the fourth floor. An Fei smiled and said, "Uncle Ernest, you must hide the magic crystal well, don't let the teacher sense the location of the magic crystal, can you do it?"
"It's okay for a short time, but it's not okay for a long time, leave it to me. Ernest put away the magic crystal and looked at An Fei seriously for a long time before he said slowly: "Silly boy, it looks like you're not stupid at all!!"
"Actually, Uncle Ernest, I'm hiding something from you. An Fei sighed.
"Can you tell me now?" Ernest asked with interest, "I won't force you if you don't want to say it." β
"You can't blame me all, you never asked, in fact you should have noticed. An Fei said slowly: "Teacher Yagor keeps using us for experiments, and we don't rank according to age or height, often Teacher Yagor randomly orders someone to go with him, and that person has never come back after leaving, and after a long time, we are all scared, so there are many, many stories have happened." β
"Go on. β
"None of us want to follow Yagor, but we are powerless to fight, so we can only make up our minds with our peers, frame each other, make each other angry with Mr. Yagor, hate each other, and I really don't want to think about the stories that have happened in the past few years. Uncle Ernest, do you know why I am grateful to Mr. Yagor, whom everyone hates?"
"Why?"
"Because I was framed many times when I was young, but I don't know why, Yagor always let me go, and finally arranged a separate room for me to take care of his daily life, hehe, otherwise I would have died a long time ago!"
