If you drift on the sea, you will slowly lose track of time, and before you know it, it is already dusk.

"Senior Awan, where will you go next?" I looked at the sunset and couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic. "I'll take Yuge to my hometown."

"Haha, I can't go back to the Dragon Palace anyway, so it's better to stay in Qingdao and continue to run my bar." Ah Wan put her hands behind her back, looking light-hearted. "Keep being my bartender."

"Why?" This makes me a little puzzled, Ah Wan just rescued his subordinates, shouldn't he go back to the Dragon Palace to ask for his life?

Ah Wan suddenly laughed bitterly. "Little brother, do you know, I led my troops to attack Bird Island this time, and I completely went my own way, contrary to the opinions of all the high-level leaders of the Dragon Palace. If I go back, in addition to being punished, I will be punished, whether it is success or failure, I will be punished, I know that I will be punished, but I still run back stupidly, isn't this asking for trouble? ”

I nodded in disbelief. "Qingdao is indeed a good place."

"Yes, I have always been planning and plotting in Qingdao before, and I have never felt the real life at all, and this time I come back, I want to have a good taste of Qingdao's customs." Ah Wan showed a smile of satisfaction. "Little brother, your father is my savior, you and your little sister can come to Qingdao to find me if you have any difficulties in the future, there are few things in this world that can stump me."

"Humph! I clumsily poked out such a big basket, how could I be embarrassed to brag. A familiar voice suddenly came from the sky, startling us.

When we looked back again, with a burst of flames, Bi Fang had already fallen beside us.

"Bi Fang! You...... Why are you here, aren't you going to be the leader of the island? Ah Wan exclaimed.

"What does the chief mean? It's better to leave this kind of thing to the green mandarin duck, hehe, I have tasted all the flowers and fruits on the island last night, and now Bird Island is not tempting to me at all. "Bi Fang danced on the deck, full of joy." I've now decided to go with you to learn bartending. ”

"What?" The expression on Ah Wan's face was mixed. "You...... You want to stay with me? ”

"yes, I can also learn how to bartend, and then sing in the bar, and play tricks on humans coming and going, it's fun to think about!"

"Haha, it's really interesting, so that you can be my assistant in the future, and we are all hidden among humans and live a human life." Ah Wan couldn't help but clap his hands. "With another youkai with me, I'm not lonely."

"Hee-hee, it's so funny, it's exciting to think about. Do you know? It's been a long time since I've been to the human world, and I can't wait now. ”

The two of them laughed and laughed, and it took a long time to notice that Yu Ge was sitting sullenly in the corner all the way, her back to us, her eyes kept looking at the sea behind her, looking in the direction of Bird Island.

Bi Fang quietly walked over and gently pinched her face. "Hehe, little sister Yuge, are you still angry with me?"

"Sister Bi Fang, you respect you so much, and you have always regarded you as the greatest ancestor of the Bird People, why do you tease me again and again and expel me from Bird Island." Yu Ge's eyes were swollen, which made people feel extremely pitiful.

"Little sister, this is wrong with you, you should thank me." Bi Fang said earnestly. "First of all, you are a hybrid of human and bird-man, you can go and look up some records in the ancient books yourself. At this age, if you don't find a person with blood relatives to collect yin and yang, you two will indeed die, what the Taoist priest said is true. ”

"Huh?" I was dumbfounded. "Senior Bi Fang, why didn't you say this to Senior Qingyuan yesterday?"

"Of course you can't tell her, you have to say that you did it spontaneously, so it's interesting." Bi Fang said it seriously, and there didn't seem to be a frivolous demeanor. "I also hope that you will love each other spontaneously, not because of the outside world."

"Then why do you have to punish me and banish me from Bird Island?" Yu Ge still chased after him and interrogated. "And deprived me of my birdman identity."

"Haha." Ah Wan couldn't listen to it, and suddenly laughed. "Little girl, you are really too stupid, expelling you from Bird Island is to make you a free person who does not have to be bound by any rules and regulations, you should be glad that you are right."

Bi Fang gently stroked Yu Ge's hair. "Yes, you stupid girl, what's so good about Bird Island, it's a pity that you can't take a good look around such a big and prosperous world. Besides, in the future, Qingyuan will be the leader, and one day you suddenly go back, and she can't get rid of you? ”

Yu Ge looked at them in disbelief. "Is that really what it means?"

"Little sister, when you live with Ah Wan for tens of thousands of years, you will know that everything in this world is not absolute, and blessings and disasters always come together." Bi Fang suddenly put away his smile and became deep. "Did you say? Ah Late. ”

"That's right, little girl, you see that although you have been deprived of your identity, you have been exchanged for the company of your sweetheart; Although I was defeated and seriously wounded, I was given the freedom of a few imprisoned men; Although Bi Fang's predecessors have been incarnated as feathers for 20 years, they have witnessed one of the most moving stories and have more passion for life. Look at Long Shao on the ground, although he was poisoned by me and suffered a lot from you, but in the end he got a slender figure and your sister's heart. Ah Wan gently patted her on the shoulder. I mean, it's all half and half, half laughter and half tears, which is the most conserved law in the world. ”

Yu Ge stared at them blankly, as if he understood something.

"If you hadn't been injured that day, Little Brother Liu Quan wouldn't have saved you, and you wouldn't have met so quickly. If you hadn't been driven out of Bird Island by your Mandarin Duck that day, then you wouldn't have cracked the oldest spell of our clan," Bi Fang continued. "Every seemingly sad thing will be followed by a happy thing that can be gratifying, and if you think about it, is life like this?"

"Sister Bi Fang, I understand, all I have to do is enjoy the life of the moment."

"Haha." Bi Fang and Ah Wan laughed at the same time. "It couldn't be more right."

"That's it! To celebrate the little girl's enlightenment, I'm going to make a glass of wine for everyone. Ah Wan had already taken out four wine glasses from the box behind him at some point.

He rolled up his sleeves, his fingers fiddling nimbly, and he first took out a huge sheep peach from his bosom, which looked even redder than the setting sun.

"When did you steal this?" Bi Fang looked surprised. "I'm afraid it's the biggest peach on the island, and I don't even want to pick it."

"Haha, I secretly picked one up on the way to the lake last night, thinking that if I really want to die on Bird Island, I must eat it first." Ah Wan proudly threw the sheep peach into the air. "Today, though, it has a bigger purpose."

He silently recited a spell in his mouth, and the peach exploded into a pink firework. Then he used his hand to condense the seawater into the palm of his hand, and then threw the seawater into the sky like a water bomb that day, and the sky swept through a burst of blue waves. In this way, the smoke clouds of the two colors are intertwined, like a rainbow after rain, and the sunset on the horizon is beautiful.

The red and blue rain falls into the glass, and a bizarre cocktail with fruity aromas and sea salt is prepared.

"I've got a good name for this recipe of mine." Ah Wan looked at the ever-changing colors in the wine glass, and her face was full of emotion. "It's half sweet, half bitter."

Half sweet, half bitter.

What a good name.

I took a sip, and it was really like the wine, as its name suggests, each flavor will awaken a memory of the past, and for a moment it seems to be back to the day when Yuge took us out of Qingdao.

From a distance, the outline of Qingdao's coastline is like a girl's curvy curves, at this moment the May Fourth Square is bathed in the clouds and clouds, the high-rise buildings of high and low will be tightly protected by the exquisite square in the arm crook, the red sculpture and the color of the sky complement each other, Yu Ge's face is also reflected in the sunset a piece of burgundy. Ahead, there is a bustling crowd of people and traffic, fishmongers are introducing the seafood they have just caught to the surrounding tourists, many children who have just finished school are playing on the beach, and old people are moving towards the beach with their fans.
