Huangquan Roadside Inn
Chapter 14 Longevity Feast [1]
The evening breeze was cool, and Bai Xi was lying on the roof alone with his arms on his head, looking at the same vast sky as the world, full of stars, which was very pleasant.
Xueya curled up on Baixi's belly, her little head rubbed against Baixi's turning fingers, very well-behaved.
There was a sound from the gate of the underworld, Xueya froze for a moment, then got into Bai Xi's arms and hid it in his clothes, Bai Xi immediately sat up in surprise, watching Bai Ci come out from the gate of the underworld , then smiled and said: "Brother Baici, I am here."
Bai Ci was stunned in front of the door, then a smile flashed across his lips, he jumped up and sat down beside Bai Xi, his eyes were gentle: "You are very comfortable."
"Climb high and look far away." Bai Xi raised a smile and sat side by side with Bai Ci.
Bai Xi likes to drink Bai Ci very much. He has known Bai Ci since he was a C-level ferryman. He is gentle, easy-going, polite, and his smiling appearance always makes people want to get close. But after getting along with him, he found Bai Ci It's not as easy to get close as it seems on the surface, and the distance is tight.
For hundreds of years, Bai Xi is the only person who has been with Bai Ci the longest, and Bai Ci is always thinking about Bai Xi, always discovering things that others cannot.
"Here, this is a new wine bag I made for you. I saw that the wine bag around your waist disappeared after you came back from Ruoshui Town, so I made a new one for you. Let's see if you like it." Bai Ci stretched out his hand , A brand new wine pouch appeared in Bai Ci's hand, he handed it to Bai Xi, and said with a smile.
Bai Xi looked down at the empty waist, then scratched her head embarrassedly and said, "I'd have forgotten it if you didn't tell me."
Bai Xi took the new wine bag that Bai Ci made for him, with a big smile on his face, and he couldn't put it down because of the new wine bag. The carvings on the outside of the wine bag were also extraordinarily delicate and delicate, and it felt very comfortable in the hand:
"I really like this wine bag. Brother Bai Ci is so kind to me, I can't even repay him."
"You call me brother, and I will naturally treat you well." Bai Ci's eyes were gentle, and he looked at Bai Xi's side face with extra tenderness. When his eyes fell on the silver hairpin on Bai Xi's head, he couldn't help being stunned :
"It seems that you still can't let him go."
Bai Xi, who was playing with the wine sac carefully, had a slightly trembling expression and paused in the movements of his hands, instead of looking at Bai Ci, he just looked down at the carved wine sac in his hand:
"Brother Bai Ci, when I was in Ruoshui Town, I fell into one of Shura's formations. That formation will change according to everyone's deepest thoughts. That was the last time I saw him."
"And then?" Bai Ci looked at Bai Xi's beautiful eyes with a faint layer of mist, and couldn't help feeling distressed, so he unconsciously lowered his voice.
"Then he asked me to go with him, and I agreed, but it was clearly based on what I wanted in my heart, but Lu Yao appeared and even killed him. I don't know why this happened. I clearly wanted to see him in my heart." , I don’t want him to die.”
Bai Ci stretched out his hand and stroked a strand of Bai Xi's black hair, then smiled and said, "You care so much about him, so naturally you don't want him to die, but you are in Ruoshui Town, and you have more important things to do in your heart than him , that's why Lu Yao appeared."
"What do you mean?" Bai Xi looked at Bai Ci with some doubts.
Bai Ci looked at Shang Baixi's eyes, the light in his eyes that eagerly wanted to know the reason made Bai Ci slightly stunned, then nodded and smiled, and said softly:
"That is to say, compared to him, the most important thing in your heart is Shura of Ruoshui Town, but you don't want to live up to the most fundamental idea in your heart, that's why Lu Yao appeared, and Lu Yao killed him, so you can There is no need to disappoint both sides."
"I... am I such a person?" Bai Xi understood Bai Ci's words, and felt a little flustered.
Was he really that bad?
If you don't use any means to achieve your goals, you can even give up on the people you care about the most, and you can take advantage of others and go with the flow. You are really bad.
"No, because there is something more important than love in your heart, which is responsibility. Between him and responsibility, you chose responsibility, didn't you? Besides, it's just an illusion, and there are countless things to do." Bai Ci seemed to understand his own words It made Baixi a little hard to accept.
Just as he has heard too many bad words before, so once someone treats him well, he will treat that person wholeheartedly.
Because too many people deny him, he also cares about what others think of him.
Bai Ci knew Bai Xi's character, although he was usually careless, but his heart was delicate and tight, so he was willing to coax him.
Bai Xi pouted and looked at Bai Ci, raised his smile and said, "It's okay, I've been looking for him for so many years, if he really cared about me, I would have found him long ago, it took 500 years, it's clearly him Live up to my predecessor, Ruoshui Town, it is his retribution."
There was a strong smile on Bai Ci's face, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Bai Xi's cheek: "You, sadness comes and goes quickly."
"Otherwise, what can I do? I just need to live a good life in the future. As for whether I can find him again, it depends on fate." The smile on Bai Xi's face became stronger.
Bai Ci nodded: "Well, that's right. You forgot to talk about the business just because you were just trying to explain it. The Lord of the Underworld returned to the Hades, and specially held a banquet in the Hall of Eternal Life to summon all levels of ferrymen from the Hades. You and Qingyu must also be there, remember tell him."
"What? Go to the Palace of Eternal Life to meet Mingjun?" Bai Xi was a little puzzled: "Did Mingjun hold such a banquet before?"
"It has never happened before, but this time is an exception. It has been 500 years since Mingjun left Hades, and there have been many ferrymen in Hades in these 500 years. Rather than saying that Mingjun summoned all the ferrymen this time, it is better to say that Mingjun inspected all ferrymen. ability." Bai Ci said seriously, and his smile became more and more gentle:
"I'm more worried about you. I'm afraid that Lord Ming won't let you come back after hearing the reports from Yan Luo in each hall."
"If you don't go back, I won't go back. The gatekeeper is very good, unfettered, much more interesting than Hades." Bai Xi shrugged indifferently.
"You can think about it. I brought the letter. This is the invitation letter. Remember to keep it." Bai Ci spread his palm again, and a post stopped in his hand. After handing it to Bai Xi, he got up and said:
"It's getting late, so I'm going back."
Bai Xi glanced at the invitation letter in his hand, then nodded, watching Bai Ci disappear into the gate of the underworld.
Xueya poked her head out from Bai Xi's embrace, staring straight at Bai Xi's cheek with her big eyes, then crawled onto his hand, wrapped her fingers around him, raised her head and looked at Bai Xi,
Bai Xi looked at Xueya, reached out and nodded Xueya's head: "You also want to go to the longevity feast with me?"
Xueya nodded, her eyes were extremely innocent.
Bai Xi thought for a while, and was a little embarrassed: "But you are not from the Hades after all, and the Palace of Eternal Life is the place where the Lord of the Underworld lives, so it is not accessible to ordinary people. I am afraid that you will be taken out before you go in. I am The ferryman with the lowest level can't protect you at all."
Xueya lowered her head a little dejectedly, then happily slipped into Baixi's sleeve again, poked her head out cautiously, and blinked her eyes.
Bai Xi shook his head: "No, I can't let you take risks, I can't lose you."
Hearing what Bai Xi said, Xue Ya's eyes became brighter and brighter, and she became happier when she looked at Bai Xi.
Xueya lay down on Baixi's palm, curled up into a ball, only propped up her head, and stuck out her tongue.
Bai Xi smiled helplessly: "Okay, I will make up for you when I come back and buy you a lot of pigeons to eat!"
Xueya's eyes became brighter, she stretched out her body and rolled in Baixi's hands.
Bai Xi stretched out his hand and poked Xueya's fleshy body. The little paws were also extraordinarily beautiful, but he had raised Xueya for so long, why didn't he see it grow up a bit, it had grown flesh.
"You, you've gotten fat from eating too much pigeon meat." Bai Xi murmured.
When Xueya heard what Baixi said, she quickly put away her stretched body and coiled it into a ball. After coiling up, she found that her head was facing Baixi, and she changed the direction and ignored him at all.
Bai Xi laughed and felt that the more she gets along with Xueya, the more she likes it. Since having it, Bai Xi is much happier than before.
The Palace of Longevity where Ming Jun lives is at the source of the Wangchuan River. The palace is huge and magnificent, and there are many water pavilions in the palace, but just the front hall is enough to make people amazed. As for the back hall, no one seems to go there. Pass.
Because it was Mingjun who entertained the ferrymen in the underworld, so when the time came, all the ferrymen in the underworld gathered in the entire front hall of the Hall of Eternal Life.
Even Baixi, who likes red clothes on weekdays, changed into a black round-neck robe, tied up a jade belt, tied up her long hair, and put on a hat like all the ferrymen.
Standing beside Bai Xi, Qing Yu tugged at his sleeve and said, "Brother Bai Xi, do you think this Lord of the Underworld intends to let everyone show their abilities, or do random checks?"
"I'm not too sure, just like you, it's the first time I've seen Lord Ming." Bai Xi folded his arms and whispered in Qingyu's ear.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a voice that Baixi didn't want to hear sounded behind them: "Isn't this Master Baixi, who didn't look at the gate of Huangquan carefully, but came here. Thinking about coming to Mingjun, he is really sympathetic to his subordinates. It’s really strange that even those who watch the gate can be summoned.”
Instead of being angry, Bai Xi smiled, turned around and looked at Chang Xi, who was also in a gesture of crossing her arms, her expression was more arrogant and contemptuous, Bai Xi changed her posture to look at Chang Xi, pursed her mouth and said:
"That's right, if you let Mingjun know that your mana is not as good as a first-class ferryman than a gatekeeper, then it will be a good show."
"You!" Chang Xi withdrew his arm, glared at Bai Xi and said, "You're too short, you trash."
"It's not even as good as trash, Mr. Chang Xi, you probably won't be able to sit in the position of a first-class ferryman for long." Bai Xi didn't take Chang Xi seriously at all, and it was just that he couldn't stand his anger if he refuted it.
Just as Chang Xi was about to speak, he saw Bai Ci and He Qiu walking towards this side, and then put away the previous fierce posture, his expression gradually became gentle, and he cupped his fists to salute: "Brother Bai, Brother He, you are here too .”
Xueya curled up on Baixi's belly, her little head rubbed against Baixi's turning fingers, very well-behaved.
There was a sound from the gate of the underworld, Xueya froze for a moment, then got into Bai Xi's arms and hid it in his clothes, Bai Xi immediately sat up in surprise, watching Bai Ci come out from the gate of the underworld , then smiled and said: "Brother Baici, I am here."
