The Lord of Ghost

During the day, Mo Li looked at the drunk Xiao Xiaobao and leaned over to shake him.

Xiao Xiaobao opened his hazy eyelids. He drank too much last night and didn't use his spiritual energy to sober up. Today, he lay on the ground like a puddle of mud.

"Brother Xiao, see, I said you can't handle alcohol."

Xiao Xiaobao turned over, belly up, and burped again, the smell of alcohol was overwhelming.

"I'll... I'll get drunk, I'll get drunk."

Mo Li smiled slightly: "Look at you like this, you really look like a puddle of mud."

As he said, Mo Li lifted the other's arm and put it on his shoulder.

"Let's go. The boats are closed during the day. I have no objection if you want to sleep here."

"I'll... Thank you, Brother Mo." Xiao Xiaobao grinned.

In the early morning, the warm sun was floating, and Mo Li carried Xiao Xiaobao on his back and walked on the slightly cold street.

A night of drunkenness made both of them tired.

"Hey, brother Xiao, you should lose weight. You're so heavy."

"Hey, I'm thick." The two walked along the way, supporting each other. When they passed by a familiar wine shop with flags fluttering, they couldn't help but take a look.

"Brother Xiao, can you have another drink? Hot fire wine or mild fire mulberry wine will do."

"No...no, burp, I can't drink anymore..."

"Haha, brother Xiao, you can't do that. The prime minister's stomach can hold a boat, that's called a sea capacity, you have a drinking capacity, the boat will run aground."

Amidst the hearty teasing, the two walked to the Xiao Mansion.

Mo Li threw his hand, left Xiao Xiaobao, patted his butt and walked away.

"Brother Xiao, old time and place." Mo Li raised his hand with his back turned.

"Okay."

Back to the inn, Mo Li fell asleep the moment he touched the wooden bed.

This sleep was until the evening. The lights in [Suzaku Ancient City] were just coming on, and the night was tinged. The warm wind blew with slightly hot spiritual energy, which made people's blood flow.

Mo Li rushed to Gouhua Tower as promised. When he went downstairs, he heard the guests who were drinking there talking:

"It's strange. According to the usual practice, Tower Master Xiao should have attended the alchemy conference held every three years, but for some reason, he didn't come this year?"

"I heard that some time ago, a big shot asked Tower Master Xiao to help refine pills, but he was told that Tower Master Xiao had been in seclusion for a long time."

"Retreat? Tower Master Xiao hasn't been in seclusion for many years, right?"

"Is he going to break through to the saint level?"

"I don't know, or maybe he is refining some kind of peerless pill. Some people have seen many precious medicines being purchased by the Dan Tower. Maybe Tower Master Xiao is really refining a heaven-defying pill."

Xiao Xiaobao had been waiting for a long time on the boat.

"Brother Mo, you're late." Xiao Xiaobao raised his lips, looking forward to the fun tonight.

"Hey, here you go." Mo Li threw a bottle of wine gourd over: "Fire wine, just made, it took a while."

"Haha, the one who knows me is Brother Mo..."

Fire wine, also called Fire Green, is brewed from the spring water flowing with the power of Suzaku in [Suzaku Ancient City]. The moment you drink it, it feels like being burned by a raging fire, but after a short period of spicy, it is endless sweetness.

"Remember to reimburse the wine money."

"I know, I know." Xiao Xiaobao took the wine gourd, hooked Mo Li's arm, and walked into the ecstasy cave carelessly.

Days passed like this.

Mo Li and Xiao Xiaobao had fun every day. It seemed that he had been in [Suzaku Ancient City] for more than three months. During this period, he seemed to have forgotten the pain and put the scars behind him.

Another morning dawned.

Mo Li carried the drunk Xiao Xiaobao on the street. When they passed the wine shop where he often bought wine, Mo Li said:

"Brother Xiao, can you drink more? Another pot of Huo Lie Qing?"

These days, Xiao Xiaobao's drinking capacity has greatly improved, and a mere Huo Lie Qing is naturally no problem.

"Come on! Let's see who falls first and who is afraid of who!"

"Okay, who is afraid of who!"

The two of them supported each other and staggered into the wine shop.

But they never came out again.

When Xiao Xiaobao's protector found something wrong, it was too late.

The two disappeared out of thin air as if evaporating, without even leaving a trace.
