Of course, compared to Bing Tianyi, Pang Yu was just a student who had just entered middle school, completely lacking the maturity that Bing Tianyi displayed at this moment.
As soon as Bing Tianyi finished speaking, someone nearby sniffed the air in the room and then turned pale with fear, asking Bing Tianyi, "Dude, don't joke around like that. Didn't you say this old monk was your master?"
"Yeah, I just became his disciple yesterday," Bing Tianyi replied, preparing to step inside to take a look.
Just as he took a step forward, Pang Yu grabbed him and whispered, "Maybe we should wait and not go in. Let's call the police."
"Call the police? We should at least wait until we know what's going on before calling them. If we call now and the police come and don't see a dead body, that would be a problem," Bing Tianyi said dismissively, pushing Pang Yu aside and stepping inside.
As expected, he had barely taken two steps into the room when he saw the old monk leaning against the sofa.
The clothes were the same as those he had seen yesterday, but the expression on his face was entirely different. The corners of his mouth had turned dark blue, and his features made Bing Tianyi gasp in shock.
He stood still for a moment, and after his fear subsided, he slowly approached the old monk. Seeing the old monk's eyes wide open yet devoid of any life, Bing Tianyi gently reached out to close them while whispering, "Master, may you rest in peace."
Standing at the doorway, Pang Yu felt even more anxious upon hearing Bing Tianyi's words. Without thinking much, he suddenly shouted loudly, "There's a dead person! This is bad; someone has died here!"
As he continued to shout, Pang Yu quickly disappeared down the basement hallway.
Bing Tianyi was left alone in this eerie and terrifying room. Looking at the old monk slumped on the sofa, he revealed a bitter smile. He recalled how just yesterday they had sat together chatting; now, he had become nothing more than a corpse.
Looking into the room, Bing Tianyi saw the half box of Golden Leaf Cigarettes that he had brought from the old monk's home yesterday sitting on the small wooden table in front of him.
Seeing this, Bing Tianyi felt a sudden impulse and without much thought, lit two cigarettes. He placed one in front of the old monk while preparing to bring the other to his lips. Unexpectedly, something alarming happened again.
There was a loud bang in the room, startling Bing Tianyi so much that he shivered all over. Although he had experienced life and death and knew that dying wasn't that terrifying, in such a situation, fear could still arise no matter how much one had gone through.
Standing up from the floor, Bing Tianyi looked towards the source of the sound and saw that the thermos on the ground had exploded by itself, spilling water everywhere.
Seeing the steaming water flow, Bing Tianyi couldn't help but glance at the old monk beside him. With slightly furrowed brows, he whispered to the old monk, "I say, Old Immortal, you’ve already passed on; is this really necessary? Scaring me doesn’t make much sense, does it?"
As he spoke, Bing Tianyi again prepared to bring the cigarette in his hand to his mouth.
Just like before, without any awareness, a cigarette from the table suddenly fell and landed directly inside Bing Tianyi's shoe.
The burning cigarette butt touched his sock and quickly burned a large hole in it. At the same time, Bing Tianyi's skin on his foot was instantly scorched.
With a scream, Bing Tianyi threw the cigarette he was holding onto the ground.
At this moment, memories flooded back to him of what the old monk had told him when he became his disciple. He had warned him not to smoke or drink for forty-nine days and to avoid women altogether.
Of course, for Bing Tianyi, avoiding women might be the easiest part. Because for him to have any relationship with a woman would require reversing time.
However, refraining from smoking and drinking was extremely difficult for someone like Bing Tianyi who had just entered high school.
Now, with this situation unfolding, Bing Tianyi did not want to toy with his life.
Seeing this, Bing Tianyi quickly extinguished the cigarette butt on the ground and said to the old monk in front of him, "Alright, Master, I will listen to you. I won't smoke or drink for forty-nine days, and I won't go near women either."
As soon as he finished speaking, a noisy commotion came from outside the door.
Bing Tianyi was taken aback, and just as he was about to step out, he heard a young girl outside shouting in a magnetic voice, "Everyone stay away from the room! Xiao Li, you and Xiao Wang maintain order here; the rest of you come with me!"
Less than a minute after she spoke, a policewoman in uniform stepped through the door.
When Bing Tianyi saw the policewoman, he couldn't help but exclaim. To be honest, a woman in uniform showcasing such an alluring figure was enough to make this young man's blood boil. But what stirred Bing Tianyi's heart even more was that this little beauty looked quite young, with a round face and dimples that appeared and disappeared as she spoke, all while being barefaced!
Barefaced, in uniform, with an enchanting figure—if she were to dress up a bit, wouldn't she be stunningly beautiful?
However, the policewoman, upon seeing Bing Tianyi, paid him no mind. She simply furrowed her brows and shouted angrily, "Get down on the ground and put your hands on your head!"
