"Has it been a month?" Dorian asked in surprise.
"What do you think? If your uncle and your master hadn't confirmed that you were cultivating at a deep level, we would have thought that you had passed away." Jijiu said, putting down the plate of fruit he was holding.
"Was there anything unusual about me before?" Dolin asked, scratching his head.
"Of course. When you were practicing, it was like you fell into a big dye vat. Your whole body was covered in blue and covered with black lines. We didn't take off your clothes. We didn't see the specific lines. .”
Dolin nodded. He was a little tired now, and he was not as refreshed as he had been after practicing in the past.
"I need to get some sleep, you don't have to worry." Dolin said and started to take off his clothes and get ready to sleep.
Jijiu looked blankly at the fruit in his hand, and then at Dolin who was already lying down. He sighed and asked, "Would you like some fruit?"
The only answer he received was Dorian's purring.
zZzZzZzZ~
Jijiu angrily picked up the fruit again and left Dolin's room, closing the door for him.
After leaving the room, he stopped drinking and went straight to the small courtyard next door. At this time, King Thunderbolt was playing chess with the old donkey head, while Chu Xiyun was lying on the deck chair and basking in the sun.
"Dolin wakes up! Dolin wakes up!" Jijiu ran into the courtyard and shouted.
"Huh?" King Thunderbolt, who was about to make a move, stopped with his fingers on the chessboard.
I don't know whether it was because the sudden appearance of quitting alcohol frightened him, or whether it was because the words quit drinking affected him, the chess piece that was originally a winning piece slipped out of his hand and fell to a position where it was not possible to win.
"Okay, okay, good luck!" Old Donkey Tou was already ready to surrender, but upon seeing this, he clapped his hands happily.
"It doesn't count!" King Thunder Flash quickly took action to stop Old Donkey Tou from falling, but he was no match for Old Donkey Tou.
The old donkey used only one finger to flick away his extended hand.
"Are you going to cheat? You will be beaten if you regret your chess." The old donkey head said with a smile.
King Thunderbolt took a few deep breaths and then turned his attention to Jijiu.
"Are you okay?" King Thunder Flash asked viciously.
"Dao... Daolin... woke up..." Jijiu said as his Adam's apple moved and he swallowed.
"Then what?" King Thunderbolt stood up with his fists clenched.
"I...amn't I...afraid...that you might worry..." Jijiu backed away.
"We all know that this boy will not die. Do you know what we are betting on in this game of chess?" King Thunder Flash asked Jijiu with a sneer.
"I don't know...I don't know..." Jijiu was so frightened that he waved his hands quickly.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know. Let me tell you, whoever loses our bet will bathe the gray donkey. I was about to win, just because of you!" King Thunder Flash said and rushed towards Qingjiu. passed.
"I'll wash! I'll wash! I'll wash!" Jijiu quickly raised his hands in surrender.
King Thunderbolt, who had already arrived in front of Jijiu, stopped abruptly. His hand that was reaching for Jijiu gently fell on Jijiu's shoulder and patted him.
"Very sensible, I like it!"
He breathed a sigh of relief after quitting drinking. He had almost planned to run away just now.
"Did you wake up Dolin just now?" Old Donkey Tou asked softly after putting away the chess pieces.
"Yes, he has woken up, but...he said he was very tired and wanted to sleep for a while." Jijiu nodded and said.
"You shouldn't feel tired if you practice at a deep level..." Chu Xiyun said as she sat up from the recliner.
"Indeed, I think we should go and take a look." The old donkey head thought for a while and said.
At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared at the door, holding a box of snacks in her hand.
"Seniors, this is the flower cake that I just learned to make from Master Qiu Huo. After I made it, I sent it here specially for everyone to try."
The person who came was none other than Kirigakure, the eyeliner whose pseudonym was Xiaoru. She had become familiar with him here in the past month.
Because Daolin was practicing and the property had not yet been rebuilt, she learned how to make snacks with Qiu Huo and Wu Ziyong during this period, and thus gained the favor of the three bosses.
Qingjiu did not mention Xiaoru's true identity to others. He was afraid that others would not be able to handle his situation well after they found out.
"Xiao Ru is here, sit down, sit down. Just now we were talking about when you would come over to deliver snacks today, but we didn't expect you to come so soon." The old donkey head said as he took a piece of flower cake from the snack box and ate it. got up.
"Well, it tastes good, Lei Shan, Xi Yun, you two should try it quickly!"
King Thunder Flash and Chu Xiyun also came over, picked up a piece and started eating, nodding their heads as they ate.
"Master Jijiu, please try one too. I guarantee it is made of pure flowers." Xiaoru said softly and handed the dessert plate to Jijiu.
I originally wanted to refuse to quit drinking, but when I thought I couldn't do it too obviously, I reached out and took a piece.
When you enter the flower cake, bite the outer puff pastry with your teeth, you immediately feel the fragrance of flowers enter your mouth, followed by the minced flower filling, which can taste the fragrance and sweetness of honey.
"Yeah! It's really delicious." Soon, a whole piece of flower cake was eaten, and Jijiu nodded at Xiaoru.
"Okay, we've eaten the cake, let's go see Daolin!" said the old donkey, clapped his hands.
"By the way, Xiaoru, come with me!" After that, the old donkey head said to Xiaoru.
"Is this...appropriate?" Xiaoru asked cautiously.
"We all live together. If there's anything inappropriate, let's come together." King Thunderbolt also said.
So, a group of five people came to Dolin's room on the third floor, opened the door gently, and saw Dolin huddled in the quilt and sleeping soundly.
The old donkey made a silent gesture, and then they quietly came to the bed.
Chu Xiyun closed her eyes and felt it, then sent a message to everyone and said: "I just felt it. He is indeed just asleep. His breathing is stable and the meridians are running stably. There is no serious problem."
The old donkey also nodded to express that Daolin was fine.
"Xiyun, under what circumstances would he feel tired after practicing in depth?" Old Donkey Head asked via voice transmission.
"I should have guessed the answer, and I think you should know this too." Chu Xiyun thought for a moment and replied.
The old donkey head was stunned for a moment, and then he looked like he suddenly understood. He also guessed the problem.
King Thunderbolt, Jijiu and Xiaoru looked at the two of them with blank faces. They could not guess what riddle the two were playing.
"What are you two going to say?" King Thunderbolt finally couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing. It's okay here. Let's go. Don't disturb his rest." Chu Xiyun said before the old donkey head.
Although the other three monks, Zhang Er, were confused, since the two bosses had already spoken, they could just listen.
After quietly exiting Daolin's room, Chu Xiyun and Lao Donutou looked at each other without saying anything, and left directly with King Thunder and Flash and Xiaoru. Jijiu was left to continue taking care of Daolin.
