Ye Li turned around, at the corner of his eyes stained with a smile, “Witchcraft uncast?”
Su Bei nodded. He really wanted to ask about those wounds, but still couldn’t open his mouth.
Everyone has secrets that he doesn’t want others to know.
Ye Li waved his hand at Su Bei, “It’s dawn. Time to sleep.”
Su Bei looked at the only one bed, “Then I won’t bother you, shifu.”
Ye Li narrowed his eyes, “What? Are you avoiding me?”
Su Bei shook his head, “No.”
Ye Li looked eased, “Then come over.”
Su Bei then leaned closer.
Ye Li then lay in bed, holding his head with a hand, extremely tempting, “What? Do you need me to help you sleep?”
Su Bei rigidly lay down next to Ye Li. With a chuckle, Ye Li held him into his arms.

Then Ye Li said with rare gentleness, “Let me tell you a story.”
Su Bei said ‘OK’, he had a presentiment, Ye Li would tell him something not mentioned in the plot.
In the story, the child was an orphan who fought with others every day for food.
One day, someone asked him if he wanted to go with him, so that he would never have to fight with others for food.
The child went away with the man for food.
The man took the child to a place where there was no sunlight, only endless darkness.
He was not the only child brought there, but many, many more.
The man told them that they had to kill each other if they wanted to eat and live.
So, he still had to fight for food.
In the dark, he can’t see anything, even couldn’t tell whether it was day or night.
Only the smell of blood and endless fighting…

No one knew how long it had lasted, but only one kid was left in the place.
But the days did not end there, and a new group of children were brought in for a new round of fighting and killing.
Day after day, year after year, three years…
The child had forgotten what it was like outside, and all he had was killing.
Finally, he was led out, and what accompanied him was still killing, but since then, he was afraid to see sunlight.
There was always a person, high above, observing him, as if looking at a commodity.
He didn’t like that look, so he stole to learn that man’s martial arts and killed him.
But he didn’t not get whole martial arts cheats because of it, so he got possessed. Every time, he had inner force riot, he needed fresh human blood to pacify it.
That was the end of the story.
Su Bei did not sleep, he knew, the child in the story is Ye Li.
It should be some mental problem that Ye Li was afraid of sunlight.

Speaking of which, he had not seen the sunlight for about ten years.
Su Bei felt awful. So, whichever world he had transmigrated to, there’d always be some cruel stuff.
Thinking of that, Su Bei fell asleep.
Su Bei was awakened by the noise outside the door, then someone kept knocking at the door.
He took a look at Ye Li and got up to open the door, very careful not to let the sunlight through.
Ghost Doctor said to Su Bei anxiously, “Little bro, big trouble!”
Su Bei asked, “What’s the matter?”
Ghost doctor sighed, “The one who cast the witchcraft could the bewitched one’s location through the bewitched worm. So those jianghu people went to my place, saying that they’d burn my place if I don’t hand Ye Li over.”
Su Bei’s pupils slightly contracted. So Meng Feifei still wouldn’t let them go?
He tightened his hands. “Take me to see them.”
On the way back, Su Bei saw Meng Feifei was standing in a high place with a lot of people behind.
