The sky outside was completely dark, only the moonlight was slowly coming in from outside, but the moonlight only illuminated the outlines of things in the classroom.
At the end of autumn, the Tianshui Sect seemed extremely quiet without the chirping of insects and birds, and it was even worse tonight. When Fang Chaozhou got up, he felt that the sound of clothes rubbing was amplified several times.
He stood at this moment, looked at the person sitting not far away, and walked out without hesitation, thinking that he hadn't seen it, and only took a step before he heard the voice.
"Where are you going?"
Xue Danrong's voice sounded calm.
Fang Chaozhou paused, turned his body slightly, with his toes still pointing outward, "Go back."
After those two words were finished, there was no response. Fang Chaozhou looked at Xue Danrong, and said cautiously: "The disciple went back first."
After speaking, he walked away, as if he was afraid that the other party would catch up.
Fang Chaozhou drove all the way, when it was getting darker and darker, he wanted to take out the night pearl lamp, but the storage ring disappeared.
He searched his whole body, but couldn't find the storage ring. Now he would sometimes get sick in the middle of the night. If he didn't have the water-type magic weapon in the storage ring, with his current state of consciousness in the sea, he would not be able to survive at all.
He also took the luminous pearl lamp from the storage ring just now. If the storage ring is removed, it will only fall in the school and the road he just walked.
Fang Chaozhou immediately searched all the way back, but there was nothing on the road. He searched all the way to the school, and finally there was only one place left——
The classroom where he slept before.
The storage ring contains not only the water magic weapon he hoarded, but also the 500,000 spirit stones he just got yesterday. If the storage ring is taken away, someone else picks it up, and washes off the seal on it, he will become a A complete pauper, or a pauper who can't live for a few days.
Last night he also promised to take the brown-eared pheasant to eat delicious food.
Thinking of this, Fang Chaozhou gritted his teeth and touched the back door of the classroom lightly. He opened the door and poked his probe inside first.
It seems that there is no one.
He looked around the entire classroom and saw no one else.
Fang Chaozhou immediately entered the classroom. He walked to the place where he slept before. Because the light was too dark, he needed to squat down to touch it. He touched the place where he slept, but there was nothing.
Fang Chaozhou's eyes fell on the table next to him again, and he bent down and reached under the table. This posture was not easy to touch, so he simply bent down his upper body, tilted his buttocks, and touched it.
Just as he was trying to find the storage ring, he heard other sounds.
The sound of the soft-soled boots stepping on the wooden board was very slight, but in this environment, it was clearly heard, especially when Fang Chaozhou's face was very close to the floor.
Because of that voice, Fang Chaozhou froze. Just when he imagined that he had heard it wrong, the voice was approaching, getting closer and closer to him.
At that moment, Fang Chaozhou's body became stiffer. He didn't know whether he should continue to look for the storage ring. In short, it seemed wrong to continue lying under the table, but he climbed out of the table and faced the person directly. The posture is really indecent.
So Fang Chaozhou tried his best to put down his raised buttocks little by little, and finally he was lying on the ground with half of his upper body still under the table. At this time, he was like a tortoise with its head hidden in its shell, only its tail exposed outside.
But even such a "hidden turtle" action did not prevent him from being discovered.
"What are you doing?"
It was Xue Danrong's voice.
At the same time, Fang Chaozhou felt that the surroundings were brighter, and it seemed that Xue Danrong had lit the lamp.
Fang Chaozhou pursed his lower lip silently, and slowly moved out from under the table. He moved very slowly, as if he was very reluctant to come out from inside. But no matter how slow you are, there is always time to climb out. Fang Chaozhou came out from under the table, and when he looked up, he saw Xue Danrong holding a bronze lamp.
The clothes Xue Danrong wears are basically the same color, either Tianshuizong's disciple's clothes, or snow clothes, coupled with the alienation between his eyebrows and eyes, he always looks cold and difficult to get close to.
But at this time, the dim candlelight cast a layer of warm light on Xue Danrong's body, alleviating the sense of alienation.
Fang Chaozhou met Xue Danrong's eyes, and swallowed unconsciously because of nervousness, "I... I..."
"Are you looking for this?" Xue Danrong spread his hand that was not holding the bronze lamp.
Seeing this movement, Fang Chaozhou got up immediately, and what Xue Danrong lay quietly in his hand was his lost storage ring.
"Yes, I didn't expect to be picked up by the teacher, thank you teacher." Fang Chaozhou quickly reached out, trying to take the storage ring, but when he touched the storage ring, his hand was also held.
Xue Danrong grabbed his hand and the storage ring together, because of this thing, the fingertips of the two of them stuck tightly together.
A flash of astonishment flashed in Fang Chaozhou's eyes, and he wanted to pull out his hand, but just as he moved, Xue Danrong opened his mouth again.
"This storage ring, I seem to have seen it somewhere."
This sentence made Fang Chaozhou freeze in place.
Xue Danrong once took off his storage ring when he was doing double cultivation.
"Where is it?" Xue Danrong looked down at the hand he was grasping, then raised his eyes again, and his eyes fell on the obviously stiff Fang Chaozhou, "It seems that I can't remember."
It took Fang Chaozhou a while to squeeze out a smile, "The storage rings on the market all look similar, and it's normal for the teacher to think they look familiar."
Xue Danrong didn't speak, just stared at Fang Chaozhou quietly.
Sometimes not talking is more terrifying than talking. For example, at this time, Fang Chaozhou's mind is full of "It's over, I was discovered, Xue Danrong must have discovered that I was the one who fed him poison and forced him to practice double cultivation", "He How will you deal with me? I haven't been to Zhichunzhou for so long, Xue Danrong must have discovered that the poison is not real poison!", "I'm dead."
The last three words flashed in his mind.
Fang Chaozhou closed his eyes and took a breath, "I admit..."
"Did you also drop the storage ring last time?" Xue Danrong's words suddenly sounded, making Fang Chaozhou pause.
Xue Danrong spread his hands again, "Last time I picked up a storage ring here, because I didn't know who it belonged to, so I put it where it was. It was you last time, right?"
Fang Chaozhou felt the hand holding his heart loosen again, "Yes, it's me. I didn't expect to be picked up by the teacher last time. I am so grateful to the teacher."
While talking, he took the storage ring and put it back on his hand.
But as soon as he put it on, he heard Xue Danrong's next sentence.
"fraud."
Fang Chaozhou froze in place again.
"I didn't pick up any storage ring last time." Xue Danrong's voice was very soft, "Do you know the crime of deceiving the teacher?"
