With a piece of food in his hand, he stretched his arms far in front of Ye Peitian. He dared not to look at Ye Peitian straight and his voice was trembling, “Eat, eat.”

Although the matter had temporarily subsided, he still had no way to equate Lin Fei, who liked to cook in an apron, with the famous man, Ye Peitian.

Ye Peitian sat up, took the food, and said lightly, “Thank you.”

“No, no,” Old Guo glanced a few times and rubbed his hands, “Speaking of it, I should thank you. You saved my life. If not for you, I would’ve died last night.”

“Are you… not afraid of me?” A hoarse voice sounded in the dark room.

“I’m a little afraid. Legend says that you live like a monster and eat people.” Old Guo secretly observed Ye Peitian’s expression and saw that he wasn’t angry before continuing, “But I’m older. I have experienced many things. I know that many things that fall on ears couldn’t be trusted, but you need to see it with your own eyes. We have also got along these days. I know that you are a soft-hearted child, and those legends seem unreliable.”

Ye Peitian carried the bowl that Guo handed to him. The outer edge of the iron bowl holding the porridge was very hot, which made his palm warm.

“Where is Qianxun?” Ye Peitian asked.

“Oh, that girl doll. She has been fighting monsters all night.” Old Guo sat down next to Ye Peitian, “Thanks to these warriors, we can survive.”

“Qianxun is a good girl. I used to say that a woman who can’t cook isn’t suitable. I’m wrong. Nowadays it’s not a matter of thinking about what to cook.”

Old Guo reached out his hand and wanted to habitually pat Ye Peitian’s shoulder. His hand stretched out into the air. He was shocked and hurriedly turned around to withdraw, “At this time, you found someone like her. It’s not easy for a woman. You have to treat her well.”

Ye Peitian didn’t speak, but just extended his finger and gently rubbed the shackles on his neck.

“What is this? Let me see. You hid it under the collar before, so I didn’t see it,” Old Guo leaned over and looked at it for a long time.“Huh, this is the legendary beam magic lock. The design is superb, and the craftsmanship is also good,” Old Guo admired it more as he looked. He almost forgot that this was what could kill Ye Peitian at any time.

“Huh, this mechanism is intertwined, which is absolutely amazing. I thought I, this old Guo Zijie, is very talented in designing weapons. Today I realize that I am just a frog at the bottom of the well. I can’t think of such a powerful weapon in the world. Design Master.”

“Is it possible to unlock?” Ye Peitian asked.

Old Guo coughed, he was ashamed as he said, “At my level, I can’t solve it for the time being. But you live here, I will study it slowly, and I can always figure out a way to crack it.”

“No, I can’t wait any longer,” Ye Peitian whispered.

Qianxun prevented him from self-harming his body, but he didn’t want to let precious people around him be in danger while he was powerless.

He turned over and took out a short blade he wore with him, and handed it to Old Guo,

“This dagger is made of a high-level demon body. I want to ask you to help cut off this shackle.”

“Will it work? If we constantly cut it, it could break. This mechanism will be triggered many times,” Old Guo waved his hand, and didn’t pay attention to Ye Peitian’s words.

He was staring at Ye Peitian’s neck and studied the seemingly insignificant small collar obsessively.

He heard Ye Peitian’s voice say calmly, “It doesn’t matter, you can look at it slowly after I die.”

In old Guo’s surprised eyes, countless yellow sands climbed up along Ye Peitian’s neck and drilled into the inside of the collar, and the gravels exploded their greatest strength regardless of the force, pulling the circle of imprisonment with his strength from all sides.

Several thin cracks appeared in the indestructible shackles. Ye Peitian supported the ground with one hand. Old Guo exclaimed as he watched him faint with the ground under him stained with a large area of ​​blood.Doing so would definitely make her angry. Before losing consciousness, Ye Peitian thought so.

…

When Ye Peitian came to life, he found himself already lying in the familiar room.

Chu Qianxun sat on the edge of the bed with her back to him, and a sharp dagger flew flexibly between her fingers.

She heard him wake up, only to glance at him lightly. She patted the dagger on the bed, stood up and left.

Ye Peitian’s body reacted before his head was fully awake. He reached out his hand and grabbed the corner of Chu Qianxun’s clothing in time.

After a long time whenever Ye Peitian remembered this scene today, he was still glad for his keenness at the time.

Chu Qianxun didn’t want to stop. Her chest was filled with anger.

She could understand Ye Peitian’s intentions and pains. But that day she slayed the monsters all night and returned to the cellar, but saw a corpse with a scarred wound lying in the blood pool.

The anger and sadness at that moment, stuck to her chest, was still there.

Ye Peitian barely propped up his weak body, covered his neck with one hand and tightly held Chu Qianxun’s clothes with one hand. He refused to let go.

“Qianxun, it hurts so much,” he said.
