Chapter 503: A pot at the beginning
In the space of the Requiem, feeling the thunder that surrounded him layer by layer, Xilan helplessly lowered his hand holding the sword.
"I'm going to die." Closing his eyes and sighing, in the face of death, Xilan was very calm.
But he waited a full five seconds, but he never met the attack that could kill him.
Xi Lan opened his eyes with some hesitation, he didn't see those intertwined thunders, but he saw Yang Bai who seemed to be smiling and Alice who was in a trance but no longer looked like a puppeteer.
"Solved?" Xilan asked tentatively.
"Hmm." Yang Bai replied in the affirmative.
"Whew...... I thought I was going to die this time! Sitting on the ground, Xilan said with palpitations.
"Thank you this time, Xilan...... Predecessor. Yang Bai walked up to Xilan and stretched out his hand to him.
"Hehe, this is a polite young man." Holding Yang Bai's palm tightly, Xilan stood up from the ground.
"I'm sorry...... I ......" Alice, holding Marilet (staff/piano), stopped talking.
"Hahaha, it's all right, we need to go back and have a drink!" Laughing interrupted Alice's words, in many cases, you have to admit that Xilan's emotional intelligence is actually very high.
"Then let's go back first, haha." With a loud laugh, Yang Bai then took out a golden coin from his pocket.
The outer ring of the coin is silver, the inner ring is all gold, and the obverse depicts a modest lion's head, while the reverse depicts a moving hourglass.
This coin was given to him by Yesterday's Baston before entering here, telling him when he needed to leave the place, and he could use it to summon it.
Holding the coin with his ring finger, Yang Bai's thumb popped out with force, and the coin immediately spun and flew up in the void.
Something strange happened, the spinning coin did not fall, but levitated, and the speed of the spin became faster and faster.
With a strong repulsion, the figure of Yesterday's Baston appeared in the void not far away.
"Mr. Yang Bai, Mr. Xilan and ...... Miss Alice, are you planning to leave? Yesterday's Baston voice still sounded cautious and respectful.
"Yes, let's go back to where we came from...... By the way, take her with you. Yang Bai pointed at Alice and said.
"Do your will." Yesterday's Baston's voice fell, and a purple light shone out from Yang Bai's side at the same time, engulfing the three of them almost instantly.
When the three of them came back to their senses again, they were already standing in Barn's dilapidated dojo.
Yang Bai raised his right palm, and there was a golden lion's head coin placed on it, which couldn't help but make him smile playfully.
"Miss Alice, I have one thing ......" Yang Bai wanted to tell Alice his purpose, but was interrupted by Xi Lan.
"Before we get down to business, let's celebrate with a drink!" Xilan said excitedly.
"Uh...... All right. Xilan helped a lot this time, Yang Bai thought about it, but he still didn't rush to talk about business.
"Haha, then it's decided, let's have hot pot tonight, Yang Bai and Alice, how about you two go buy vermicelli, fish balls, tofu and seasonings?" Xilan said with a grin.
"Yes." Yang Bai sighed, and then walked out of the gym that seemed to collapse at any time.
Alice, on the other hand, silently followed her behind her and didn't say a word.
In this way, the two of them bought ingredients while shopping, and finally Alice behind Yang Bai couldn't help but speak.
"Mr. Yang Bai, you should have something important looking for me, right?" Alice asked tentatively, her face looking like she had just recovered a little.
After all, she had just escaped Herder's control, which really felt like a dream for her, and she didn't know if she was asleep, under Herder's control, or if it was real.
Turning to meet his eyes, Yang Bai put down the ingredients in his hand, and then reached out and grasped Alice's hand that was holding Marilet's hand.
Her palms were still cold, which made Yang Bai sigh.
"The past is gone, Alice, time is always ticking, you have to hurry up and pick yourself up." Yang Bai comforted him, he actually won't comfort people, these words are all learned in film and television dramas in his previous life.
"Mr. Yang Bai, can I really be saved? People like me! Alice asked, her eyes flushed, and her body trembled slightly.
"Believe in yourself, Alice." Yang Bai tried his best to show an incomparably gentle smile.
Nodding resolutely at Yang Bai, Alice resolutely turned around and played a soothing tune in the bustling streets.
Seeing the flowing crowd all showing a heartfelt and happy smile, the corners of Alice's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
Soon after, the two returned to Xilan's dilapidated gym and found that Xilan had already set up the stove and pot, and was now carefully pouring wine for each wine glass.
"Hmm...... I have the most, and the rude brat is the least......" Xilan muttered to himself.
"Senior Xilan, that's it?" Looking at the empty table, Yang Bai wondered.
"Ahh You're back! Rest assured, the ingredients will arrive soon! Xi Lan quickly took back the flask and said with a little panicked.
At this time, Nuo Yu also walked in with several of his close subordinates, carrying vegetables, mushrooms, shochu and beef.
The expression of the leader Nuo Yu was a little strange, I thought that it would be a long time to meet Yang Bai next time, but I didn't expect it to be so fast.
And after glancing at the situation in the lobby, she showed a "sure enough" expression.
"This door-slamming master! Stupid master! Nuo Yu complained a few words in his heart, and then walked towards Yang Bai with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Yang Bai, we meet again, my stupid master is bothering you to take care of it."
"It's okay, it's okay." Yang Bai said with a smile.
"Obviously I'm taking care of him, hum~" Xilan thought to himself rather angrily.
Everyone sat down and began to add ingredients to the boiling pot, and at this moment, Noyu's curly-haired subordinate couldn't help but glance at the table suspiciously.
"There's no lamb...... How do you eat hot pot? She muttered to herself, confused.
Xilan smiled awkwardly and didn't explain, and Nuo Yu didn't speak, obviously expecting it.
At this time, the door of the gym was pushed open again, and a small iron pillar carrying a large bag of mutton walked in.
"Mr. Xilan, you changed your sex today, and you invited me over for dinner?" Xiao Tiezhu sat down in the vacant position at the table, and said to Xi Lan in confusion as he put the mutton down.
All of a sudden, countless eyes fell on Xi Lan, and their eyes were the kind of eyes that looked at the crumbs of the world.
I only prepared one pot for this product!
