âThat ... They will wake up. They just need time.â The seventh elder didnât know how to comfort Feng Da. After all, it was because the elders of the ning family had not woken up, so Feng Da and the others were trapped here. He couldnât help but feel a little guilty.
âI know!â Feng Da was helpless. In this situation, he had to wait.
Just as the two of them were chatting, a shrill scream suddenly rang out in the space.
âArgh! Help me!â
The voice was very familiar to the seventh elder, because it was the voice of the eleventh elder.
âIs eleventh elder calling for help?â Feng Da couldnât help but ask after hearing the voice.
âYes!â The seventh elder said as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. At this moment, he really didnât know what to say. Hearing this voice, the eleventh elder was probably in deep waters.
âPoor eleventh elder, how could that fish recognize him as the third party?â Feng Da was really curious. The current situation was most likely the fish punishing the mistress!
âI donât know either!â The seventh elder was speechless. Then, he stood up and said,ââNo! I have to go and take a look. â
âWait! I suggest you donât go. If you go now, Iâm afraid it will only make the fish even more angry. So, youâd better stay here! Donât add oil to the fire. â Seeing this, Feng Da quickly pulled the seventh elder back.
âMm! Seventh elder, what Feng Da said makes sense. You canât go there now. â Leng Qingtian also advised. After being with the fish for so long, they more or less understood its habits. If the seventh elder went over now, the eleventh elder would be even more unlucky. If things went wrong, even the seventh elder might be caught!
âAI! Alright then!â The seventh elder unwillingly returned to his seat. However, the occasional screams of the eleventh elder made him feel as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
After a long time.
The 11th elder finally stopped calling out, and Yu âer returned, satisfied.
âLittle Yu âer! Did eleventh elder also pass the test?â Leng Qingtian asked curiously when he saw the fish.
âNo, I didn ât! He hadnât accepted the test yet! The place heâs in right now canât be tested. â Yu Yu said with a faint smile.
âSo you donât plan to let him take the test?â Leng Qingtian continued to ask.
âOf course, he has to accept the test. However, itâs not now. I donât want him to ruin the relationship between these two old men. Therefore, I can only isolate him.â The fish pointed at the seventh elder with its fin.
âOh! You really are a good child! He has a sense of justice!â Leng Qingtianâs face was full of black lines, but he still braced himself to praise her.
âThatâs natural! Iâve always abhorred evil. â Yu Yu was getting a little smug from the praise, while the seventh elderâs expression was getting uglier and uglier. He felt like crying but had no tears in his heart. When would he be able to clear his name?
âLet me out! Let me out!â The eleventh elder suddenly shouted.
âShut up!â The fish roared impatiently. Then, with a flash of white light, it disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the eleventh elder stopped screaming.
âIf it can teleport, why does it jump every time?â Feng Da looked at the disappearing fish and said with a puzzled face.
âMaybe ... It likes this!â Leng Qingtian guessed. It was just like how they used their godly skills to defeat their enemies, but they preferred to use their fists. They enjoyed the feeling of their fists hitting the flesh, and listening to the âBang Bangâ sounds made their hearts feel especially refreshed.
âWhich one do you like?â The white light flashed again, and the fish returned. Moreover, he happened to overhear their conversation.
âWe said that you can teleport, but you like to jump. Thatâs what you like.â Leng Qingtian said with a smile.
âHehe! It really is. â Yu âer agreed without the slightest bit of anger.
âLittle Yu âer, why do you like to jump?â Leng Qingtianâs face was filled with curiosity.
âI like it! Thereâs nothing urgent!â The fish said matter-of-factly.
âItâs really like that. This is your territory, and everything is within your control. Of course, you should do whatever you want.â Leng Qingtian said.
âMMH! Master grandpaâs words really hit the nail on the head!â Yu Yu also flattered Leng Qingtian.
âHehe!â
Then, the man and the fish looked at each other and smiled. However, in the eyes of the others, their expressions were a little abnormal.
Especially Leng ruohan, who could not help but widen her eyes and look at her grandfather in disbelief. She thought to herself,âis that half-grown old man who is smiling foolishly really my grandfather?â However, he only dared to think about it in his heart. He definitely didnât dare to ask. Otherwise, his grandfather would definitely be furious!
Time passed.
After the seventh elder woke up from his dream, several other elders woke up one after another. However, when they woke up, their condition was obviously not as good as the seventh elder âs. They were completely dumbfounded and did not have any reaction for a long time. After a long time, their first sentence was,âI didnât die?â
Every time he saw the reaction of these elders, the seventh elder would have a resentful look on his face and said in a bad mood,ââNonsense! Of course youâre not dead!â
Although his tone was a bit bad, seeing the elders he was familiar with wake up safely, the seventh elder was still very happy. However, only a small part of the ning family elders had woken up, and nearly two-thirds of them were still asleep! This fact made him quite depressed.
Ever since the elders had woken up one by one, the seventh elderâs main task every day was to carefully observe the condition of the other elders who were still sleeping. His gaze was placed on those elders who were sleeping almost all day. Once he had time, he would stare at them without blinking, afraid that something would happen to them.
Just like that, the days passed by.
The number of ning family elders who had woken up was increasing, and more than half of them had already woken up. However, the White Rabbit did not appear, and the fish did not mention anything about sending them out of this place.
Seeing this, Feng Da couldnât help but ask.
âRabbit! Come out!â One day, Feng Da finally exploded.
A white light flashed, and a White Rabbit appeared in front of Feng Da, yawning. It said with a displeased look,ââWhat is it? Itâs so late at night, canât we talk about it during the day?â
âCan you send us out now?â Feng Da said directly.
âDo you really want to get out that badly?â The little white rabbit asked in surprise.
âOf course! Weâve been here for a long time. â Feng Da gritted his teeth and couldnât take it anymore.
âBut there are still elders who havenât woken up! Are you not going to wait for them?â The little white rabbit said innocently.
âDidnât you say that as long as half of the ning familyâs elder awakens, we can go out?â Feng Da asked.
âThatâs right. If you want to go out now, I can send you out. But, after you go out, theyâre still here taking the test. Can you feel at ease?â The little white rabbit asked calmly.
âLittle rabbit, what do you mean? Are you going to let us out or not?â Feng Da had run out of patience. He didnât want to play tongue twisters with a rabbit.
âOf course Iâll keep my promise and let you all out. However, there are still people who are undergoing the test! If you leave them here, arenât you a little disloyal?â The little white rabbit said with a smile.
âYou ...â Feng Da finally understood the White Rabbitâs meaning. The damned rabbit just wanted them to be loyal and continue to stay here with the sleeping elders. Although he really wanted to say that the life and death of those elders had nothing to do with him, if he really dared to say that, the rabbit would definitely have something else to say for him. Therefore, after thinking for a while, he obediently closed his mouth.
âIf any of you want to leave, tell me! Iâll make the arrangements. â Seeing that Feng Da had fallen silent, the White Rabbit spoke to the others who were still conscious. However, no one dared to respond to its words, because they were afraid that it would accuse them of being disloyal. So, they had no choice but to continue staying in the Nightmare Realm.
After an unknown period of time, the elders who were still in deep sleep finally woke up. Just as they came back to their senses and figured out the truth of the matter, the fish told them a cruel truth. That was, their annual usage fee in this space had expired.
All the elders were dumbfounded.
âThat fish! Do we have to pay too?â The seventh elder blinked his eyes and couldnât believe what he had just heard. He didnât hear wrong, did he? They had to pay again?
âOf course! Although our friendship is not bad, that is a different matter! The usage fee and our friendship are two different things, we canât mix them up. â The fish said very seriously.
âBut weâve already passed the test, havenât we?â The seventh elder could not help but ask.
âYouâre right, but you havenât left this place! You have to pay for the entire day here, so donât even think about reneging on your debt!â At the mention of money, the fish had a tendency to turn hostile.
âActually, I know that youâre all staying here to guard them out of loyalty. So, logically speaking, your expenses should be paid by them. âYou can discuss it properly. Let me know when youâve come to an agreement on who will pay the money. However, what I want to say is that your time is limited. In two days, the third year will begin. If you havenât left this place by then, youâll have to pay an additional yearâs worth of money. Of course, you can also pay by the day, but the fee for the day will be higher.â Immediately after, Yu âer reminded him with a smile.
When the elders heard this, their faces turned green with anger. He was really a blood-sucking fish! They only know how to exploit their money! The elders suppressed their anger and looked at each other. Then, they said in unison,ââWeâll each pay our own bills. â They couldnât stay here for another day.
