In the end, Bai Gu couldn't stand being pestered by Qiu Zizai anymore, so he reluctantly took Qiu Zizai with him and went to the dumpling restaurant where Mr. Wu took him to with the drunkard.
In the end, Qiu Zizai had big eyes but a small belly. After eating a plate of dumplings, he started to howl and eat.
The drunkard stuffed the last dumpling of the second plate into his mouth and put down his chopsticks. "You can't eat too much at night. It's easy to accumulate food."
Qiu Zizai was immediately speechless.
After eating eight taels of dumplings, are you still afraid of overeating?
Bai Gu also swallowed the last mouthful of dumplings and put the four plates in front of him into a pile. "Master is right. I'll just do this for now, so as not to be too stuffed to sleep at night."
Then Bai Gu got up and went to pay the bill.
Qiu Zizai twitched the corner of his mouth.
The master and the apprentice can each eat more than the other. One is eight taels and the other is one catty. Are these still human beings? Even pigs can't eat that well!
The drunkard smiled and said, "Taoist Qiu, tell me what you want to say. It's not good to keep it in your heart."
Qiu Zizai raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised, but he still pretended that nothing had happened, "What is Lin Jianxian talking about? Why can't I understand?"
"If you don't want to say it, Master Qiu, forget it. There's no need to pretend to be stupid. It's stupid." The drunkard took out a wine gourd and started drinking again.
Qiu Zizai rolled his eyes, "If I am stupid, then you are a mindless guy who never thinks about the long term. In this regard, Xiao Baigu can do better than you."
"It doesn't matter, I have a sword in my hand."
Qiu Zizai snorted coldly, "You are already a father, and you are still so frivolous."
The drunkard paused while drinking, and his eyes suddenly turned sharp, "What did you say?"
Qiu Zizai stretched out his hand, deliberately not looking at the drunkard, and looked around as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
The drunkard looked at Qiu Zizai's look of needing a beating, tried hard to suppress his inner irritation, and threw out a blue and white jade pendant, "Tell me, what did you figure out?"
Qiu Zizai looked the jade pendant up and down carefully, and after confirming that it was a good thing, he put it away with a smile, "It's not that I figured out anything, but I already knew it before, so it's not a secret."
The drunkard had mixed emotions in his eyes, and his tone was trembling, "What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. It's just that you should think carefully about what name you want to give the little guy you've never met." Qiu Zizai smiled mysteriously, "One is not enough."
There was a rare trace of panic on the drunkard's face, and then he shook his head and said in denial: "It's impossible, how is this possible?"
Qiu Zizai glanced at him sideways, "Do you think she will change her mind? Or do you think you can't do it yourself?"
The drunkard's face turned pale, "How could it be...why didn't she say anything then..."
"If she told you, do you think you could leave so easily under the circumstances? Or, after she told you, would you leave?" Qiu Zizai sneered, "She did it for you to survive. Don’t be so impulsive.”
Listening to Qiu Zizai's words, the drunkard's heart felt like a knife. He couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the wine gourd, and his veins popped out.
The drunkard took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice: "Is she okay?"
"Still alive."
The drunkard frowned and looked at Qiu Zizai.
"He's still alive, that's all Pindao can say. No matter how much more Pindao knows, it's none of Pindao's business anyway." Qiu Zizai shrugged, "If you want to know, go and find out by yourself. Come on, go see her."
The drunkard was silent.
Qiu Zizai sneered: "You want to know how she is doing but don't dare to see her. What a coward! I really can't understand why she fell in love with you back then!"
The drunkard remained silent.
Bai Gu suddenly kicked Qiu Zi from behind, causing the latter to lie directly on the table.
Bai Gu stepped on Qiu Zizai's back and cursed angrily: "Fuck you! You are the coward! Your whole family is a coward! You accepted my master's things and you dared to scold my master, shame on you. You bastard! Believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart!"
Qiu Zizai immediately begged for mercy: "Uncle Bai, Uncle Bai, it's wrong! When did you come? Don't do this, it will affect your image!"
Bai Gu sneered: "I'm here from the beginning to the end! Is it about image? I don't care about that stuff. Besides, I don't have one in the first place!"
The drunkard then spoke slowly, "Xiao Bai, that's enough. Daoist Qiu didn't say anything wrong. Let him go."
Bai Gu glared at Qiu Zizai, and then reluctantly let go, "Qiu Shengun, if you let me hear you say bad things about my master again, I will really be rude!"
Qiu Zizai curled his lips and said nothing.
The drunkard sighed slowly, "Let's go, Xiaobai, it's very late, and you have to deliver food to your sister."
After saying that, the drunkard got up first and walked out.
Bai Gu pointed at Qiu Zizai, glared at him again, and then left with the drunkard.
Qiu Zizai lay on the table and twitched his lips, "Bo Xi has his own way but no one travels it, and he is a different person in the world."
When the drunkard walked out of the dumpling restaurant, it happened to be snowing heavily.
He stretched out his hand to pick up the snow and asked softly: "Xiao Bai, tell me, am I a coward as I told Master Qiu?"
When Bai Gu heard about Qiu Zizai, he got angry, "Master, don't listen to that magic stick's nonsense! The two stone lions at the door of the city lord's mansion are more reliable than what Qiu Zi Zai said. Don't take it to heart."
"But I really don't dare to see her..."
Bai Gu was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
The drunkard showed a self-deprecating smile, "When I fell in love with her, her sect became furious when they found out and sent several ancestors to surround me. At that time, I was only in the third realm, so I was unable to resist, and I was not qualified to change anything. It was she who used She imprisoned herself in the sect, so that I could escape in embarrassment. I could only watch her being taken back, but I couldn't do anything for her."
At this point, the drunkard's voice became even hoarse.
"Since then, I have been practicing my sword with all my strength, just thinking that one day I can bring her back with absolute strength. After so many years, I miss her all the time. Even though my cultivation has improved, But I don’t even have the courage to see her, even..."
The drunkard stops talking.
Bai Gu could probably guess what the drunkard was thinking, but he didn't really want to admit it.
fear death.
The drunkard was afraid that if he went to see her directly, he would be besieged by the ancestors of her sect and never return.
Even with the drunkard's current cultivation level, there is no guarantee that he can escape unscathed.
Bai Gu thought for a while, "Master, although I don't know much about you, Master Niang, and the situation of the sect behind Shi Niang, and I don't know what you are thinking now. But what I want to say is that people cannot live forever. All your wishes come true. There are too many ups and downs and difficulties that make people unable to lift their heads. Being a coward for a moment cannot explain anything, it is just a short-term tolerance. As long as you are not a coward for a lifetime, there is still a chance and a chance to succeed. Day. I hope Master, you can cheer up, improve your cultivation as soon as possible, and strive to get Master’s wife back as soon as possible!”
The drunkard's eyes were a little sad and he said nothing.
Bai Gu stood on tiptoes and patted the drunkard's shoulder, "Master, a man, you have some confidence! How can you not even dare to fart when your woman is snatched away? We can't bear this. You are so cowardly! At least set a good example for me!"
The drunkard finally managed to smile and nodded, "Okay, I will."
The drunkard raised his head and slowly turned his gaze to the south.
Xiaoyan, wait for me!
Wait a minute, I'll pick you up.
That day won't be long.
