The moon was on the roof, in the dead of night, Bai Gu, who should have been sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes.
Bai Gu had a vision in his eyes.
The left eye is golden and the right eye is red. Looking from a distance, it looks like gods and demons coming to the world.
Bai Gu took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. After a long time, Gu Bai exhaled a breath of turbid air, and when he opened his eyes, his eyes returned to normal.
Bai Gu just wanted to get up, but suddenly remembered that Bai Xiaoxiao was sleeping next to him, so he slowly took out one hand to press the quilt between them, and then opened the quilt on himself with the other hand, and he He rolled out sideways and fell from the edge of the bed to the hard stone floor without saying a word.
Bai Gu lay on the ground for a while and then slowly stood up. He tucked Bai Xiaoxiao in gently and carefully checked to make sure that Bai Xiaoxiao was covered tightly before walking out the door with confidence. .
The action of opening and closing the door was very gentle, without even a trace of sound.
His movements were unusually skillful. After all, this was not the first time he had done such a thing.
In the past, Bai Gu would often sneak out to find something to eat when he was woken up by hunger in the middle of the night. In the summer, they drank the water from the stream, and in the winter, they ate the snow at the door, or they ate some grass roots and bark to satisfy their hunger. Especially the bark of elm tree, which is relatively tender and easier to swallow than other barks. Bai Guanyin loves the bark of elm tree.
Of course, many people in Lingding Alley have done this kind of thing, but most of them gave up chewing their own food and gave up their share to their boss so that their children and mother-in-law could have a bite of food. People, the backbone.
Sometimes while swallowing snow in the alley, filling water by the stream, or chewing bark under the trees, Bai Gu would bump into other heads of family, and they would all nod lightly and smile knowingly.
However, there is no exchange of "food" between them.
It's hard for everyone. It's hard to find something to eat. How much you can eat depends on your own methods.
Bai Gu stood at the door, his eyes narrowed.
He sneaked out now, not like before when he was hungry in the middle of the night and came out to swallow snow and drink water to satisfy his hunger.
In the evening, he ate three large plates of dumplings, half a catty of soy beef, and two large bowls of lamb chop soup!
How could you be hungry?
Besides, if you are really hungry, you still have some money on you. Wouldn’t it be nice to go to the night market in the city to buy some midnight snacks?
Bai Gu withdrew his mind, his spiritual power circulated in his body, and he pointed at the red mark between his eyebrows.
A flash of red light flashed, and Bai Gu disappeared instantly.
The next moment, Bai Gu's figure appeared on Gu Xuefeng.
To be precise, it is on the cliff of unemployment.
Bai Gu tugged on his collar to prevent the cold wind from pouring in, then he cupped his hands forward and said, "Master Xu."
Not far away, Mr. Xu in white robe is sitting cross-legged in mid-air, his hands forming lotus seals. There is a purple-gold lotus seat at the bottom that is condensed from spiritual power, and strands of purple-gold spiritual power linger around the body.
Hearing Bai Gu's voice, Mr. Xu in white robe dispersed his hand gestures and slowly fell back to the ground.
Master Xu in white robe glanced at Bai Gu, "Why are you here at this time?"
"I have a few things that I would like to ask Mr. Xu to help me clear up." Bai Gu still held his hands in his hands and lowered his head slightly.
Mr. Xu in white robe waved his hand, "Resolving your doubts is out of the question. If you have any questions, just tell me and I will do my best to help you. Also, raise your head, there is no need to be so groveling. At least with me, you don't have to be like this. .”
Bai Gu responded and raised his head.
When Mr. Xu in white robe saw the red mark between Bai Gu's eyebrows, he couldn't help but frown, "No, there's something wrong with your mark."
Bai Gu smiled slightly, and then wiped his eyebrows with his left hand.
What was originally just a vertical red mark turned into a drop-shaped red mark, like a bud about to bloom, shining brightly in the wind and snow.
Bai Gu's eyes also had strange visions at this time.
The left eye is golden and the right eye is red.
Mr. Xu in white robe originally only saw the mark of the flower bud between Bai Gu's eyebrows, and didn't react much because it was within reason.
But when he saw the vision in Bai Gu's eyes, he was no longer calm.
This was completely beyond his expectation!
The human dynasty at the foot of the mountain respects the left, and so does the lineage of the immortal sect on the mountain.
What that red light represents is very clear to Mr. Xu in white robe.
But what the hell is that golden light in Bai Guzuo's eyes? How could it possibly be compared to the red light?
How is this going?
Mr. Xu in white robe looked a little ugly.
Seeing the expression of Mr. Xu in white robe, Bai Gu, no matter how stupid he was, knew that the man in front of him could not give an answer for the time being. He just raised his hand and wiped it again, and the bud mark and the vision in his eyes disappeared together.
Mr. Xu in white robe was slightly startled, "Can you control the appearance and disappearance of such visions?"
Bai Gu shook his head, "To be precise, it's a cover-up."
Mr. Xu in white robe was puzzled.
Bai Gu had no choice but to explain: "It's like covering someone else's eyes with a piece of cloth. The vision still exists, but others can't see it."
Mr. Xu in white robe was a little surprised, "Even I can't peek?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I only know that Grandpa Liu, Mr. Wu, and Brother Peng can't see them." Bai Gu paused for a moment, then scratched his head, "And this vision and concealment method were inexplicable after I woke up. It will work out, I don’t know how it came about.”
Mr. Xu in white robe nodded and said: "That's right... I know something about the mark of the flower bud between your eyebrows. It was a mark formed by receiving the power of my lineage. It was an inconspicuous vertical mark at first, and then The next stage after the vertical marks is your current bud form."
Bai Gu suddenly became a little nervous, "Master Xu, your...this mark...I already have a master! This...this...doesn't it conform to the moral principles of the world? Are you not asking me to carry someone who deceives my master and destroys his ancestors?" , Are you going to push me into a pit of fire on the charge of treason?"
Mr. Xu in white robe chuckled, "Are you also afraid of this?"
"Oh Master Xu, it's like this now, please stop teasing me! Think of a solution first! Otherwise, I won't be able to see my master when I go down the mountain!" Bai Gu was so anxious that he was sweating all over his head.
Mr. Xu in white robe said with a smile: "You don't have to be so anxious. It's not about deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors, and it's even more nonsense to deviate from the orthodox. The mark between your eyebrows is just a shelter. It's your good fortune. You can put it Think of it as... you earned it by working outside to earn extra money. Your master is the lecturer in your school and the shopkeeper in the cafeteria. He can't be so evil-minded that he would even interfere with the extra money you earn outside, right? He If he is not convinced, let him go up the mountain and come to me, and if there is any problem, we will solve it face to face."
Bai Gu then chuckled and nodded quickly: "I understand, I believe that my master will not be so petty."
It’s not clear what level Master Drunkard is in, and he doesn’t know how strong the one in front of him is. What’s more, there is a Master Xu in the mountains who can join forces with the one in front of him.
If the trouble really breaks out in the mountains, whether the drunkard master succeeds in questioning the sword or the two Master Xu raises their hands to suppress the drunkard master, Bai Gu doesn't want to see it.
Both sides are considered to be close to Bai Gu. They hurt each other and both sides suffer losses. This is the outcome that Bai Gu least wants to see.
Of course, although the drunkard master seems to be not doing his job properly and drinks heavily every day, he is still sensible. A master should be happy when his apprentice has a chance to make a fortune.
What's more, for someone as stingy as the drunkard master, I guess I can have fun secretly, and I can save him a few martial arts and Taoist tools.
When Bai Gu thought about the day when he asked the drunkard for one or two self-defense weapons, the drunkard looked like he had nothing to lose, and he felt angry in his heart. He couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart.
