A House Like A Nightmare

"My king if you allow me to speak ..." Bao Fang said bowing.

"You are allowed Bao Fang"

"Your highness, I know a place where Yu Bin can find her sword. If you allow me to take her for a month I'm sure we can find her the perfect sword.  She said walking towards the king.

"I already tried everything…  "  the king said, sighing deeply. He was trying so many times. From the time Yu Bin turned 12 till today, every time he heard about a new sword he would go buy it and come back with her, but none of them worked with Yu Bin. Every single sword rejected her.

" Her spiritual energy is weak, that's why she was rejected and I know a place where she can cultivate. I will help her cultivate for the next two weeks then she will follow a heavy training. Just after that, she will have a chance to conquer a sword. But I'll always be right behind her" Bao Fang said. She knew Yu Bin was very weak right now, but she had a desire to be stronger. And at the end who can stay in the way of a stupid? They don't understand failure so they will keep going and not give up. 

" I already trust you enough for putting my dear princess into your hands. it's just... I don't want to see her disappointed again. Last time was enough" the king said, looking at Yu Bin and remembering the last time he brought a sword. That time Yu Bin cried so much that even when she stopped crying her tears kept flowing. 

"Dad, I will not be disappointed this time, I promise.  And I trust my master, if there will not be a sword for me then she will find something else. She promised to make me strong and if there is no sword then I still have my hands, right? " Yu Bin said smiling tenderly 

"You changed..." the king said seriously. 

"I did ?"

"Yes, you changed somehow. Before you cared just about yourself.  You didn't trust many people, you were a spoiled brat but somehow you look more mature.  I don't know if I should begin to worry for you or be proud of you "

"Father, I made the same  mistake two times"

"Same mistake two times,"     the king said surprised 

"Yes. When I first met brother Xian,  I told him he doesn't know how to have fun ...I judged him because I thought he was too arrogant.  The second time I told master to not pay attention to him because I saved everyone,  I thought he was too conceited.  Every time I was so mistaken father ... I judged him two times but he was hurt both times, once mentally and once physically.  I don't want to see anyone hurt because of me again. " Yu Bin said, tears threatened to fall but in the end, she stopped them from falling.

"My daughter grew up and I'm proud of her. " the king said, hugging her.

"You can go with master Bao Fang,  " the king added, smiling at his daughter. 

After they ate, Bao Fang  took Yu Bin, said farewell to her worried parents, and left on their journey. 

"I'll see you later Yu Bin  "       

 someone said, smiling tenderly looking at the window but then suddenly made a face when seeing Bao Fang taking  Yu Bin in her arms and flying with her up in the sky.

"How dare you touch her with your dirty hands, you murderer,  criminal, devil ."  The person in the case added angrily.

The feeling of love, hate, and sadness all together made the person cry hard.

On the other hand, Yu Bin was resting her head on Bao Fang's shoulder. 

"Master, it's so nice to be up here with you, it's making me so relaxed and happy.  If brother Xian would be with us he would be so happy.

"Oh, you already miss your brother Xian  ? Bao Fang teased Yu Bin who turned red like a tomato. 

After riding the sword for a while they reached the place they needed and came down.

The place seemed abandoned for a long time. Spider webs stretched across the gates from one corner to the other.  Large weeds had grown along the yard and the gate seemed to fall if it was opened, which is what happened. 

The moment Bao Fang tried to open it after cleaning the spider's web that had settled over her, the door fell to the ground.

Yu Bin who was already shocked because of the view didn't expect to see this kind of place, not talking about sleeping in here, when she saw the door falling she lost it completely. 

"Master, you can't be serious," Yu Bin said sharply. There is no way she could sleep in a place like that.

"Why ?"

"Master are you expecting me to sleep in this kind of place "

"Yes, why? Isn't it great? " 

"Masterrrrr, give up, I'm going home," Yu Bin said and left turning around 

"Yu Bin … down there are monsters, and I'm not talking about corpses," Bao Fang shouted for Yu Bin to hear and it worked because Yu Bin heard it clear and sharp.

"Damn it," Yu Bin said and came back. 

"Good, if you decide to stay then we should start to clean, the night will come soon and we need to have a clean place to sleep right "

"It's not like I have a choice, " Yu Bin mumbled. 

After lifting the gate and resting it on the fence, they entered the house where Yu Bin had a new shock. 

The floor was in a state of disrepair. The bed was full of dust and the mattress seemed to have gone through World War I.

After telling Yu Bin that she was going to bring water from the river, Bao Fang took the bucket and went down to the river. Meanwhile, Yu Bin found a broom and started to clean the spider webs that made their home in every corner of the house.

 After she finished with the spider webs, she took the mattress out and wiped the bed then she started to clean the floor too. 

When Bao Fang came, found her sleeping in a corner. She never even cleaned her room and now she was cleaning the whole house. Bao Fang smiled and woke her up gently. 

"Yu Bin wake up,  the flour is cold and you will catch a cold. "

"Master, let me sleep for a while, please. I'm extremely tired."

"I brought water, go wash your face and let's go down to the city, we need to eat then buy a few things. I promise you that when we are back you can sleep for a while. "

"I'm not hungry," Yu Bin muttered while sleeping but the next moment her stomach grumbled, making Bao Fang laugh. 

"Let's go, let's go," Master said, taking her in her arms and bringing her outside.

 She helped Yu Bin wash her face, then she unsheathed her sword and they left to buy the things they needed.  They were buying two mattress blankets and a few pillows, dusting cloths, cleaning solutions, nails, a hammer, an ax, a few pots and pans, spoons, plates, knives, and forks, then they went home.
