Tomb robber: Tuantuan, I am a national treasure!

Chapter 168: Washing for Too Long

There was a feigned ignorance in Big Eyes' big round eyes. It pretended not to understand and rubbed its furry body against Jinnian's hand.

Its somewhat soft body rubbed Jinnian's palms making them itchy, but it showed no intention of stopping.

Jinnian frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He coughed lightly a few times, trying to make this clingy little thing behave itself, but Big Eyes acted as if he didn't hear him and continued to do as he pleased.

It was not until Jinnian narrowed his narrow eyes, with a hint of anger in them, that Big Eyes reluctantly withdrew, flapping his huge crystal blue wings. The flapping of his wings created a slight airflow, causing the surrounding air to fluctuate slightly.

It slowly flew to the side and finally landed on the table outside the door.

Jinnian didn't like its bloodshot eyes, so it hid them and disguised itself as beautiful ruby ​​eyes.

Big Eyes turned his big, gem-like eyes and stared straight towards the bathroom where Jinnian was taking a bath. There seemed to be something different hidden in his eyes.

Before closing the door, Jinnian looked at it suspiciously, pondering in his heart, but then he thought, it didn't have the ability to see through things, and it couldn't do anything if it stayed here guarding, so just let it go, which was much better than letting it run around outside and scaring Mr. Ba to death.

Mr. Ba's timid nature had finally calmed down, but if he was frightened by Big Eyes again, he would probably be restless for several days.

What Jinnian could never have imagined was that almost as soon as he stepped into the bathroom and the misty water vapor began to spread in the bathroom, the big-eyed boy outside the door disappeared like a phantom.

Its crystal blue wings flickered twice first, and each flick seemed to play a piece of music in the air. The breeze blew rustlingly, and with the flapping of the wings, some light blue powder fell down. The powder flickered faintly in the air, like stars floating in the sky.

Big Eyes flapped its wings vigorously twice again, each time with a strange rhythm and a little sound. Then, its figure seemed to blend into the air and disappeared on the spot, leaving only a faint, mist-like trace.

The trace floated slowly in the air, like a ghost that seemed to appear and disappear, entwined in the air.

It seemed to still retain a strange aura from the other party, but before I could see it clearly, it quickly disappeared, as if it had never been here.

All that was left was the tightly closed bathroom door, like a barrier separating two worlds, and the steam that gradually filled the entire bathroom.

The water vapor swirled like a veil, blurring Jinnian's vision.

Jinnian stood in the bathroom, the warm steam wet his hair, and a few strands of white hair stuck to his fair forehead and cheeks.

He opened his lips slightly, as if he remembered that he was about to say something, but was interrupted by the sudden flow of water. He had no choice but to continue taking a bath obediently.

A blush appeared on his cheeks, as if the sunset in the sky was reflected on his face. The blush spread from his face to his ears, and the temperature gradually spread to his neck and lower parts. His whole body was faintly red.

At this moment, Qi Tiezui's voice rang out from outside the door: "Xiao Jinnian, Master Ba, I'm here to bring you some clothes."

As he spoke, he opened the door and walked in, outside the bathroom.

Qi Tiezui glanced around casually, feeling that something was wrong.

"Little Jinnian?"

"Have you washed it yet?"

Qi Tiezui simply found a chair and sat down, and put the new clothes in the basket on the table.

Although it was his clothes, he had never worn them before, so the size should be about the same.

Hehe, it's a good opportunity to let Jinnian try out a new style. He hasn't worn a Taoist robe yet, right? It's just right to wear one tomorrow, so it will be easier to cover up when I take him out.

However, Qi Tiezui waited outside for about a quarter of an hour, but Jinnian still did not come out.

Because he couldn't sit still, he walked around the room several times and even thought about finding something to fill up his little room.

To be honest, he had never thought that he would have someone living in his house one day, so he had almost no things to use. Even his clothes were what he found from his huge pile of stuff.

Qi Tiezui looked at the Bagua plate that he had pasted on the wall on a whim without knowing when.

He touched his chin and his thoughts returned to this place. He suddenly remembered that maybe Xiao Jinnian had been in there for too long?

No matter what, he only waited for a quarter of an hour, not to mention that he went to wipe his stuff first, so it took quite a while.

It's been so long and it's still not out?

Qi Tiezui walked forward, bent his knuckles, and knocked gently on the door.

"Every year?"

"Aren't you done yet? It's been a long time."

"Every year?"

"Can you at least say something to Master Ba?"

"Jinnian? Little Jinnian!"

Qi Tiezui started knocking on the door instead. His strength wasn't very strong, but the sound was loud and his palms turned red.

It doesn’t matter how long Jinnian takes to shower, there is no shortage of water in his house, and the important thing is that Jinnian doesn’t respond inside.

Qi Tiezui frowned when he thought about it, he was afraid that something really happened to Jinnian.

After much deliberation, Qi Tiezui decided to go in and take a look. No matter whether the other person was shy or not, he just wanted to make sure that he was okay first.

After Qi Tiezui finished thinking, he reached down and twisted the handle directly, thinking that it would not work, he went to get the keys. Fortunately, he did not put the keys randomly at the beginning, but put them together. Now it is much more convenient. He can find everything with just one touch. It's just a little heavy, as half of the weight of his bag is on it.

Qi Tiezui symbolically turned the handle, and with a click, the door opened a crack.

Qi Tiezui raised his eyebrows high.

Are you still young and so unvigilant?

Didn't Xiao Jinnian lock the door when he took a shower? Wouldn't that make it easy for someone to take advantage of him?

Qi Tiezui completely put Jinnian in a weak position and never thought about who would break into a grown man's bathroom?

Little did he know that his strange worries would come true a long time later.

Here, Qi Tiezui was afraid that little Jinnian would think he was a hooligan, so he brought in a basket of clothes from the table and gave the clothes to Jinnian.

Qi Tiezui, holding his clothes, walked slowly towards the bathroom. This bathroom was newly built by him. It was spacious and grand. He had long wanted to enjoy it.

But as soon as he stepped into the bathroom, he felt something flying over his head, bringing up a slight sound of wind.

He subconsciously shrank his neck, and before he could react, some unknown powder seemed to be stained on his face.

"Ouch!"

Qi Tiezui screamed in shock, and his voice echoed in the bathroom with a bit of fear.

The clothes in his hand almost fell to the ground. He hurriedly used his other hand to pick them up, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly because of the panic movement.

The powder was a bit pungent. He waved his arms in panic, trying to disperse the thing that came from nowhere. His eyes were wide open with some fear in them: "What the hell is this?"

He tightly grasped the clothes in his hands, his heart beating violently in his chest, as if it was about to burst through his chest. He wanted to curse, what was he doing in the bathroom? !

The bathroom was filled with steam and fog, which was like a living monster, moving freely in the space.

The mist doesn't look like it comes from a shower, but rather like it's from the depths of a dark forest, very mysterious.

Qi Tiezui tried hard to open his eyes wide, wanting to see his surroundings clearly, but when he waved his hands, he could hardly see anything, as if there was an invisible wall blocking his sight.

He reached out and touched it again, but felt nothing. He only felt a chill at his fingertips, as if being gently touched by something cold.

He muttered to himself, if he had known earlier, he should not have made such a big bathroom. He wanted to enjoy it originally, but now, not to mention enjoying it, there is not even a single person in sight, which makes him feel anxious.

"Nian Nian? Just squeak?"

Qi Tiezui moved cautiously and walked towards the back of the bathroom. He was originally walking with a hunched back, but because he had to hold a basket of clothes, his movements were not natural. The basket was stuck at his waist and he couldn't bend down, which made him look a little wretched.

Suddenly, he vaguely saw the outline of a bathtub, and there seemed to be someone in the bathtub. He held his breath, walked closer, and finally found it. It was Xiao Jinnian.

Jinnian was lying in the bathtub, with abnormal lines appearing on her fair body. Those lines looked like ancient and mysterious runes, emitting a strange aura, as if they were copied from some altar.

They were winding and twisting, some looked like blooming blood-red flowers, and some looked like sharp thorns, climbing along Jinnian's skin.

The blood-red marks gradually crept up his entire body, forming a sharp and terrifying contrast with his fair skin.

His face was slightly red, as if it had been burned by fire, his lips were slightly parted, as if silently telling of the pain, his eyes were tightly closed, his long eyelashes were trembling slightly, as if he was trapped in a nightmare and unable to break free.

Qi Tiezui gasped in fright, and the clothes in his hands almost fell again.

His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, his lips trembling: "Xiao Jinnian? You...what's wrong with you?"

He rushed to the bathtub in two steps and reached out to touch Jinnian, but stopped in mid-air, afraid that his actions would make the situation worse.

"What the hell is going on?!"

He raised his voice and then fell silent, feeling a little overwhelmed. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead and mixed with the surrounding water vapor.

Qi Tiezui paced anxiously beside the bathtub, his mind in a mess, not knowing what to do. After hesitating for a long time, he thought that he should get Jinnian out first. It wouldn't do to keep her in there like this. She had only been in there for a short while but was already feeling uncomfortable because of the steam, not to mention that Jinnian had been in there for quite some time.

He gritted his teeth and decided to get the person out first.
