Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Wisher Takes the Bait
"That guy is a little too bad-hearted. ”
Lumia frowned disapprovingly.
"I can't say that, Xiao Lao'er is indeed ashamed of him, this is all as it should be, the grudge between me and him is not a small fight that can be extinguished with a smile. Even so, after many years of chance meeting, Xiao Lao'er was only beaten half to death instead of completely burping Liang to see the first emperor, no matter how he is still a good person in nature, his heart is not bad. ”
Taigongwang paused, and it happened that at this time, Misty trembled and brought sake and edamame peanuts, and the old man peeled off a few peanuts and poured himself a cup of sake.
"In the end, he is also a hero......"
"The old man has done some disgraceful things before, it is not a wrong thing, and I have never regretted it, I have earned a glory and wealth because of this, but after all, it is still a passing thing. After experiencing the brocade clothes and jade food, the children and grandchildren are full, but the original dirty pickled things are gradually distinct, after many years, I occasionally think of it and feel more and more ashamed. ”
"Oh...... Oh. ”
Lumia listened in the clouds, she understood every word of what Taigongwang said, but she couldn't understand anything when she connected it, so she could only smile awkwardly and politely. Lumia vaguely understood that the old man opposite was telling the knot in her heart, but she didn't know why she was talking to herself.
So the little monster decided to change the subject.
"Quack, come, say hello to grandpa grandpa. ”
Lumia tugged at the monster's sleeve, and this time it finally reacted.
Quack slowly raised its head with a dead face, and it stared indifferently at the Taigong opposite for a long time, its cheeks moving strangely, as if it was hurriedly swallowing the food in its mouth.
"Quack, are you choking again?"
Seeing that the monster didn't move for a long time, Rumia worriedly wanted to check its throat, after all, Rumia was stupid and couldn't take care of herself, although it was really strong, but it was also prone to problems.
Before Rumia could stand up, the monster's weirdly wriggling cheeks stopped. It leaned forward sharply, its face expressionless but full of force spitting out a cloud of dark green and almost black gelatin.
"Phew!"
“Tekeli-li!”
The little monster that was given the mission of "killing that old deflated three" by the creator screamed loudly and rushed towards Taigongwang, and it shaped itself into the shape of a drill and spun it at high speed, and the countless bright green eyeballs in its body drew a spiral trajectory, menacing.
The old man picked up the fishing rod beside him and moved his wrist slightly, and the slender end of the hook on the rod, or rather, the needle, was drawn impartially against the sharp corner of the drill, and the living weapon capable of disintegrating everything disappeared. And Taigong looked at the monster opposite with a smile, not annoyed at all.
"I'm sorry, grandpa. Quack is not usually like this, maybe it is in a bad mood because it was disturbed from eating. ”
“Guuhhh!Guh!Guh!Guuuhhh!!”
Lumia was taken aback, firstly, because Gaga had just created that kind of monster in her mouth to attack others, which was something that had never been done before. The second is that Taigongwang has easily erased that kind of monster, and Lumia knows how destructive that kind of thing is, if it weren't for her own ability to restrain matter, maybe they would have swept Gensokyo. But with the seemingly ordinary old man in front of him not only reacting from the sudden attack of Quack, but even being able to defuse the attack, this Taigongwang is definitely a strong man who is deeply hidden.
Lumia didn't have any knowledge of history, so she didn't know that the old man who was eating at the same table with her was the first martial saint in Chinese history, the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao who held the whip of the gods and sealed the gods, King Zhaolie Wucheng.
Taigongwang wouldn't talk to her about these things. The old man just smiled and waved his hand, not paying attention to the monster who was pointing at himself rather rudely and shouting words that no one could understand, and his face was even more ugly than before.
"It's okay, it's okay, I know why he hates me. It's normal for an evil god like him to have this kind of reaction, but it's Romea, little friend, you didn't surprise the old man like him. Don't worry, I should have no problem converging and converging. ”
Taigongwang put the fishing rod directly at his feet this time, so that Gaga's eyes couldn't see it at all. And when the monster saw that he could neither kill the old man nor drive the old man away, all his methods were unsuccessful, so he picked up the bowl and chewed the food with a heavy face.
"It's like. ”
The old man looked at the stuffy monster with the kind eyes he looked at his nephew.
"Huh, like what?"
Lumia held the bowl of miso soup and tilted her head to look at the monster for no apparent reason, and then at Taigongwang.
"Like an old man, the old guy I just mentioned. Looks are the same, and so is temperament. ”
"Unfortunately, it's not him. ”
Taigongwang sighed, squeezed a pod of edamame into his mouth, and chewed slowly.
Rumia could understand that Taigongwang's focus had always been on Quack, and he had been sitting directly across from Quack from the beginning, and those obscure and difficult words seemed to be spoken to Quaca. So that is to say......
"Grandpa Tai, do you know what happened to Gaga before? Are you talking about Gaga's father?"
"Well, I guess I know. Oh, thank you, little bird. This fish smells so good. ”
"The main thing is that your fish is good, Mr. Taigong. Sir, are you really okay?"
"You can't say that, steaming has very high requirements for heat, little bird, your cooking skills are becoming more and more exquisite, don't be presumptuous. ”
Mistya, who couldn't let go and personally delivered the steamed mandarin fish, was also relieved to see Taigongwang's free bearing and the harmonious atmosphere on the table, she put the plate in front of Taigongwang, and finally returned to the stall with a "be careful" look.
The old man lifted the chopsticks and lightly struck them at an angle perpendicular to the plate, and then put the tip of the chopsticks, which was much thinner than the Chinese chopsticks, and then sandwiched a spoon of delicate and fatty fish belly meat, and put it in his mouth with ginger and green onions.
"Your friend's past, although the old man has lived in seclusion for a long time, he has also heard some rumors. He had a lot of incidents in this Far Eastern paradise some time ago, and now he has fallen to this point, which can be regarded as sad and lamentable. As for whether the old guy is the father of this Gaga, I don't know, after all, he is also a man with many sons and grandchildren, although he is not as good as the little old man. But if you look at it with my old eyes, it's not eighty percent. ”
