Fire Captain

Bai Qian brought A Yi back to Qingqiu from Bai Zhen's residence in the Northern Wilderness. As soon as they landed, Tuanzi shook off Bai Qian's hand and ran towards the fox cave. Bai Qian knew that he was going to see Bai Ziyang. He must have a lot to say to Bai Ziyang after not seeing him for several days, so she followed him slowly.

As soon as he entered the cave, he heard Ayi lying next to Bai Ziyang and whispering, "Mom has too many bad romantic partners, including the Crown Prince of the Celestial Clan and the Lord of the Wing Clan. If you don't get up, someone else will snatch Mom away!... If Mom marries my stepfather, then Ayi will be an unwanted child!"

Bai Qian said angrily: "Ayi, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Ah Yi turned around and was about to speak when he heard a voice behind him: "Your mother and I swore an oath to the East Desert Lake, with the gods of the four seas and eight wastelands as witnesses. We will be together for eternity. How can someone just snatch us away if they want to?"

Ah Yi turned around and looked at the person who opened his eyes on the bed. His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. After a long while, he shouted one word: "... Dad?..."

Bai Ziyang turned sideways to look at Bai Qian who was standing blankly at the entrance of the cave, and said with a smile: "Qian Qian, I'm back!"

Bai Qian felt as if she were in a dream for a moment, looking at the person who once lay motionless on the bed. Now that she had woken up, it always felt so unreal. Her heart was so excited that she couldn't say a word. The tears that she hadn't shed for hundreds of years fell unknowingly.

Ah Yi was the quickest to react. He ran over, grabbed Bai Qian's hand and pulled her to the bed. Bai Qian looked at Bai Ziyang and cried, "Do you know how many years you have been sleeping?"

Bai Ziyang held Bai Qian's hand and said, "Three hundred years, I know!"

Bai Qian asked, "Can you hear what we said before?"

Bai Ziyang nodded and said, "I know every time you come."

Bai Qian rushed over and hugged Bai Ziyang and cried, "You are finally back."

Bai Ziyang gently patted Bai Qian's back and said softly, "I'm back... Don't worry... I'm back..."

Ah Yi couldn't bear to be lonely so he squeezed in between the two of them and shouted, "Dad, I miss you too!"

Bai Ziyang and Bai Qian smiled at each other. Bai Ziyang picked up A Yi and shook him up and down, saying, "My little glutinous rice dumpling has grown so big!"

Bai Qian wiped away her tears, touched Bai Ziyang and said, "Are you okay? Are your injuries healed?"

Bai Ziyang said, "After lying down for such a long time, I can't get any better, but I feel my bones are stiff... Hey hey hey... help me up!"

Bai Ziyang helped Bai Qian to slowly stand up, thinking that it was a good thing that she had an immortal body, otherwise her bones would have become weak after lying down for so long.

Bai Qian supported Bai Ziyang and slowly walked out of the cave. Bai Ziyang looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him and said, "So this is Qingqiu! So beautiful! Is this the place where Qian Qian has lived for more than 100,000 years?"

Bai Qian sighed, "Yes!" Looking at Bai Ziyang who had just woken up and the little girl beside him, Bai Qian felt that the years were peaceful and good...

Knowing that Bai Qian's aunt's husband had woken up, everyone in Qingqiu came to pay their respects, not to mention Bai Qian's fourth brother Bai Zhen and the Supreme God Zhe Yan from the Ten Mile Peach Forest. Bai Qian's other brothers and the Fox Emperor and Fox Queen also came a little later.

The first time everyone saw Bai Ziyang was when he was in a coma. Now that Bai Ziyang has woken up and is alive and well, everyone feels sorry for their Xiaowu, who is finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

When everyone was thinking about how to address this Lord Demon God, Bai Ziyang came up to them without any courtesy and called them one by one: father-in-law and mother-in-law, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother... Everyone smiled with satisfaction, and after saying polite words, they tacitly agreed not to disturb the "long-parted" couple... and left after a few days.

Bai Ziyang and Bai Qian have been separated for three hundred years and naturally don't want to be separated again. As a result, everyone in Qingqiu saw such a clingy "uncle". Anyway, the two of them have spent a long time together, and except for Bai Qian occasionally dealing with Qingqiu's affairs, there is nothing else to do. Even Bai Qian wondered why Bai Ziyang became so clingy after waking up this time.

Bai Ziyang said confidently: "I slept for three hundred years, so we should spend day and night together to make up for the three hundred years we spent together!"

Bai Qian had no choice but to obey him, as she was happy with it anyway.

Bai Ziyang suddenly seemed to think of something and asked, "I remember you had a little niece named Bai Fengjiu? How come I haven't seen her for such a long time?"

Bai Qian said helplessly: "I heard from Mi Gu that she went to the mortal world to repay her gratitude!"

Bai Ziyang asked curiously: "Repay a favor? Repay what favor?"

Bai Qian said, "She has been repaying the Emperor Donghua for saving her life for three hundred years. I don't know when it will end."

Bai Ziyang said: "It's almost there, it's almost there..."

Bai Qian said: "You know it again!"

Bai Ziyang turned over, moved closer to Bai Qian and said, "Qian Qian, let me take you out to play!"

Bai Qian didn't react and asked subconsciously: "What about Tuanzi?"

Bai Ziyang pulled Bai Qian up and left, saying, "Let him play with Mi Gu!"

Bai Ziyang brought Bai Qian to the Peach Forest, and Bai Qian asked, "What are we doing here?"

Bai Ziyang ran to the peach tree with great interest. Seeing this, Bai Qian said, "Oh... you came to steal Zheyan's wine again!"

Bai Ziyang made a “hush” sound and whispered, “Come quickly, don’t let him hear it, I don’t know if he is there!”

Bai Qian squatted down beside Bai Ziyang and dug for wine together, as if she had returned to that day three hundred years ago. This time her luck seemed better than last time. After just a few digs, she saw two jars of wine. Bai Qian said happily, "Wow, there really is!"

"Okay, I finally caught you this time!"

Bai Ziyang and Bai Qian turned around at the same time and saw Zheyan standing not far behind them with his hands behind his back, looking at them.

Bai Qian smiled and said, "Zhe Yan..."

Zhe Yan looked at the wine jars in their hands and said, "I was wondering why I lost two jars of wine for no reason three hundred years ago, but today the case has been solved!"

Bai Ziyang laughed and said, "Old Phoenix is ​​too stingy. I will brew a few jars of wine in Qingqiu and return it to you later!"

Zheyan asked: "Is the wine you brewed drinkable?"

Bai Ziyang said: "It is definitely better than the Peach Blossom Drunk you brewed. I will brew one called... Lihuabai! Qianqian~~~"

Bai Qian drank and ignored them.

Zhe Yan suddenly asked, "Speaking of Xiao Wu, I really have a question for you. You haven't shown up for more than 100,000 years. How come you suddenly appeared in Junji Mountain in the East Desert and married our Xiao Wu?"

Bai Ziyang thought: How did he suddenly appear? He must have been taken there by the system...

Bai Ziyang drank and said, "Of course, one day I suddenly had an idea and flew east on a cloud. On the way, I saw a beautiful young woman. I lost my mind and fell from the clouds, then fell in love with the beautiful woman at first sight... and I was very smart and took advantage of my Qianqian's gentleness and quietness to trick her into getting her..." As he spoke, he touched his forehead with Bai Qian's and their eyes met.

Bai Qian suddenly felt shy for some reason and even forgot to drink the wine.

Bai Ziyang suddenly smiled cunningly and said, "Oh... that's not right. It should be Qianqian who fell in love with me first, and she acted like a dignified Queen of Qingqiu, forcing me to marry her..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Bai Qian kicking him. Bai Ziyang quickly jumped aside and said with a smile, "I'll hide..."

Zhe Yan watched from the side and shook his head, sighing: "If you two want to flirt, please go home, you are really a perfect match... But no matter what, Qian Qian's love star is really moving, it seems that it is destined by heaven..."

In short, in the end, Bai Ziyang and his wife not only drank Zhe Yan's newly brewed wine, but also robbed a lot of things and brought them back. Bai Qian alone was already a headache enough, and now with the addition of Bai Ziyang who dotes on her, they are even more lawless. This family of three are all fearless.

Besides, since Bai Ziyang woke up, he took over the cooking in the fox cave. After all, Bai Qian didn't know how to cook when she was a mortal, and she still couldn't learn to cook as an immortal. In the past three hundred years, Bai Fengjiu was there, so the mother and son didn't have to eat loquats all day to fill their stomachs. Now that Bai Fengjiu is gone, Bai Ziyang has woken up, and Bai Qian eats the food he cooked again, and it tastes the same. The first time Ah Yi ate it, his stomach was full.

In the afternoon, Bai Qian was in the pavilion outside the cave, drinking tea and looking at the bamboo slips in her hand. Her serious look made people who didn't know her think that Bai Qian was reading some Taoist book. Bai Ziyang was lying on Bai Qian's legs, and after taking a glance, he realized that it was a book of words from the human world.

Mortals always like to listen to ghost stories. As a supreme god, Bai Qian likes to listen to and watch love stories between men and women in the world. Bai Ziyang always finds it funny, but is not interested in it, so he takes a nap on Bai Qian's body.

Half asleep, I heard Mi Gu say, "Aunt, the Broken Cloud Fan."

Bai Qian took the fan and said, "You came here with a fan so soon. It seems you have thought it through."

Migu said: "What does aunt mean?"

Bai Qian said, "Please ask her to come in."

Bai Qian looked down at Bai Ziyang who was still leaning on her and said, "A guest is coming, why don't you get up?"

Bai Ziyang answered her: "Snoring...Snoring..."

Bai Qian: “…………”

What Shao Xin saw when he followed Mi Gu in was Bai Qian lazily leaning in the pavilion. Compared with the last time they met in the East China Sea Water Palace, her expression was more serene and peaceful. A handsome man was lying on her lap, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly. He didn't look like the prince of the Celestial Clan, but judging from her aunt's temperament, this man should be the father of the little prince she met last time.

It has been tens of thousands of years since Bai Qian took over the position of Queen of Qingqiu, and her behavior has become more mature and prudent. Now her casual behavior is increasingly refreshing Shao Xin.

Shao Xin restrained his curious gaze, knelt down first and called out, "Auntie!"

Bai Qian said softly: "Since you came to see me, you must have thought clearly about what you want from me?"

Shao Xin said, "Aunt, can you save my child Yuanzhen?"

Bai Qian wondered, "Save your child?"

Shao Xin said, "A few days ago, the Heavenly Sovereign celebrated his birthday. The Sovereign brought Yuan Zhen with him to the Ninth Heaven to prepare gifts and congratulate the Heavenly Sovereign. Who would have thought that Yuan Zhen accidentally broke into the Xiwu Palace at night and almost... almost molested the concubine Su Jin in the Xiwu Palace..."

Bai Qian said, "Then Su Jin is not dead yet?"

Shao Xin said quickly, "I think the concubine is fine, although she is weak... Although Yuan Zhen stopped at the last moment, it alarmed the Heavenly Sovereign. The Heavenly Sovereign was extremely angry and immediately tied up Yuan Zhen with immortal chains. He also ordered him to go down to the mortal world to experience tribulations for sixty years. After sixty years, he can be included in the immortal class again."

Bai Qian suppressed her laughter and said, "For attempted molestation, the punishment is indeed a bit heavy, but there is nothing we can do about it. He has a bad fate. When gods fight, mortals suffer... Oh... No, he is not a mortal."

Shao Xin hurriedly said, "Yuanzhen is a kind-hearted child. He wouldn't even step on an ant when walking on the road. I beg you to save his life, auntie!"

Bai Qian said puzzledly: "He just came down to earth to experience a tribulation, and he will be able to return to the immortal class in sixty years. Why should we save his life?"

Shao Xin said, "Because Shao Xin has heard that Yuan Zhen will have a great calamity when he is eighteen years old. This calamity will make him suffer for the rest of his life. Shao Xin cannot bear to see him suffer like this, so I beg you, aunt, to help him get rid of this calamity and let him live out his life in peace."

Bai Qian finally understood and said, "So, you came to me... to help your son survive the calamity?"

Shao Xin said: "Yes... Shao Xin doesn't dare to ask Aunt to help me avoid this crime, I just ask Aunt to quietly help Yuan Zhen!"

Bai Qian said, "You are very smart to ask me for help with this matter. You know that even if I change Yuan Zhen's destiny, Tianjun will not care about it, right?"

Shao Xin said, "Shao Xin knows that in this world, only my aunt can accomplish this."

Bai Qian immediately said, "Okay, I promise you, I will do this for you, but after it's done, our relationship as master and servant will be over, and you will no longer have anything to do with me, Qingqiu Bai Qian."

Shao Xin bowed with tears in her eyes and said, "Shao Xin thanks Auntie for your help!"
