Bei Ran held the chopsticks, and kept tinkering up and down with the contents of the bowl with one hand, a bowl of good white rice was poked to pieces by her, and she didn't touch even a single chopstick on the few dishes on the table.

Ah Xun looked at her absent-mindedness, put down her chopsticks and said, "Master, is the food I cooked today not delicious?" ”

Bei Ran came back to his senses, stared at the broken rice in the bowl, and said lightly: "Oh, no, it's just that I don't have much appetite." ”

"No appetite? Is there something uncomfortable? ”

"No, I'm fine, I don't know why. You eat, leave me alone. ”

Ah Xun lowered his head and silently picked a mouthful of rice into his mouth, "In the past, when Lan An was here, you had a good appetite for every meal. ”

Hearing this name, Bei Ran slapped the two bamboo chopsticks in his hand on the table hard, and his tone was a lot harder: "What do you do with him!" With that, she got up and walked to the door, and walked out quickly.

Ah Xun looked at her departing back, sighed helplessly, and then hurriedly finished the meal in a few bites and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.

This is the third day of Lan An's departure, and in the past three days, Bei Ran has been silent every day, rarely going out of her room, rarely talking to Ah Xun, and more often locking herself in the house alone, and she will only come out when she is called to eat when she is eating, but it is also like this every time, and she leaves again without eating two bites. Ah Xun also secretly went to see it, only to see her sitting alone in the room, holding the restored ink-colored guqin in her hand, not knowing what she was thinking.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, Ah Xun went to the firewood room, looked left and right to make sure that there was no one behind him, and then cautiously entered the door like a thief, and then immediately closed the door and covered it tightly.

She hurried to a shelf in the room, grabbed a delicate bag on it, and then returned to the square table and sat down. She untied the rope tied at the mouth of the bag, leaned her face closer to the mouth of the bag and looked inside, and unsurprisingly saw the calm little figure inside.

Ji Changkong sat cross-legged at the bottom of the bag, and suddenly felt that the light above his head suddenly brightened, but soon it dimmed again, he looked up, and saw Ah Xun's monster-like big eyes.

Ah Xun smiled at him on it, "Master, are you feeling better today?" ”

"Much better."

"That's good. I've brought you something delicious, can you come out for some food? ”

"Not necessarily." Ji Changkong got up and stood up, looking at the people above: "Why did you come so late today, how is your master?" ”

"Master's injuries are fine, but he doesn't eat much."

"Don't eat? How can it be done, didn't she say why she didn't eat it? ”

Ah Xun shook his head: "No, it looks like it should be in a bad mood." ”

"I'll go see her."

"Eh......" Ah Xun hurriedly covered the mouth of the bag, "That's not good." I've managed to figure out this way to hide you here, and if she finds out when you go out, she'll chase you away, and you really can't stay here. ”

Ah Xun's words made perfect sense, Ji Changkong thought about it, and it was indeed the case, so he stopped the urge to go out and quieted down.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Ah Xun was relieved, and opened the bag to talk to him again, "Master, there is a very serious problem now. ”

"What's the problem?"

"I think if you don't tell Master that your true identity is Master, it will be difficult for her to forgive you, because Naqin is really important to her, and if someone else breaks it, she will definitely not forgive him, and it is useless to say many good things about me."

Ji Changkong was silent for a long time before he said, "No." ”

Ah Xun was anxious: "Why? ”

"It's hard for me to explain to you now, only a few people know about my incarnation to the Nether, if I tell her, it will inevitably cause her more trouble, so it's better not to say it."

Ah Xun didn't quite understand what he said, so he had to be worried: "But in this case, Master has never forgiven you and never let you come back, do you plan to live in this little bag for the rest of your life?" ”

At that time, Bei Ran tried his best to drive Lan An away, and when Ah Xun sent Ji Changkong away, he didn't want to leave, and finally Ah Xun had to come up with such a way to put him in a bag and hide him in the firewood room.

This bag is the one she always brought with her every time she went down the mountain to catch demons in the past, whether it was a ghost or a demon, she would put it here, and then bring it back for disposal. This bag is of good quality and workmanship, with immortal power on it, it is a magic weapon, and any demons and monsters who enter here will be sealed with mana, so that they can no longer pose any threat to people and things outside. And it will also seal the breath of the creatures inside the bag, so that people cannot detect what is inside.

For Ji Changkong, a mortal body, this bag has no adverse effect on him, the temperature inside is suitable, and there is no threat from uncontrollable factors from the outside world, but it is still a good place to cultivate his body, but the space is a little smaller.

At that time, Ah Xun was about to scratch his head before he remembered such a thing, hiding Ji Changkong in it, covering a small area, and there was a magic weapon to isolate the spiritual power, and Bei Ran couldn't feel his breath at all. It can not only satisfy Ji Changkong's wish to stay here, but also not be discovered by Bei Dye, which is the best of both worlds.

"Of course you can't live for a lifetime." Letting such a big person live in such a small space is already barely enough, if it weren't for the special circumstances, how could he have fallen to this. Besides, this bag still contains the corpse of a dead monster, before Ji Changkong lived here, he had seen Ah Xun secretly pour out the corpse of a dead monster who forgot to clean it up, and he was disgusted to see him.

"So what to do?"

"Think about it."

Kitazome sat at the table, on which was the seemingly unharmed Azusa tree. She tried to use her skills to instill some mana, but it had no effect, no matter how hard she tried, the mana sent up was only like a cloud of smoke, floating on it, and soon dispersed again, and it couldn't be retained at all, let alone absorb all the mana for her own use.

If it didn't work once, she stopped and slowed down, and continued to cast spells on the qin, but the result was still the same as before, and she didn't exercise a few times, so she felt that she was too tired to work, and the spiritual power in her body had not fully recovered. In this way, it seems that this instrument can no longer be used, and can only be plucked as an ordinary instrument.

She sighed and put the piano away, and sat down on the couch with her eyes closed. Who knows, this time of closing her eyes and recuperating did not make her more energetic, but the more she sits, the more she felt weak. She suddenly remembered that she hadn't eaten a proper meal in days, and that these symptoms of dizziness and weakness were most likely caused by hunger.

She then got up and went outside to look for Ah Xun, but after looking for a few laps, she couldn't see Ah Xun everywhere, she said to herself: "Where did this kid go?" ”

She was really hungry, and she didn't know when Ah Xun would come back, so she set off to the kitchen by herself, intending to find out if there was anything to eat there.
