Genshin Impact: I’m really not a daddy

In the house of a hunter in Qingce Village, Bai Chu and the old man were sitting face to face. The hunter quietly left after placing two glasses of water in front of them.

The old man once saved him. He respected the old man very much, and even respected Bai Chu.

"Obviously he used to be a brat...now he has turned into a bratty old man."

Bai Chu picked up the water glass, took a sip, and said calmly.

"You are still the same as before."

The old man smiled, coughed twice, and his breath was a little weak.

"There's not even a little change..."

"It's not like there haven't been changes." Bai Chu shook his head.

"I've lived too long, and I can't remember many things clearly. If I see you in another two years, I might not recognize you."

"hehe…"

The old man smiles.

Bai Chu took a sip of water, looked at the little snake wrapped around his neck, and raised his eyebrows.

"You are so calm... you signed a contract with the fairy beast to heal others with secret methods. From this point of view, you are worthy of the name of hanging the pot to help the world."

"You are ridiculous."

The old man said with a smile, looking very happy.

But looking at his old face, Bai Chu shook his head and sighed.

"That being said... I'm afraid your body is already riddled with holes."

He recognized this little snake with human pupils at a glance. It was the immortal beast "Chan Sheng" wrapped around Bai Zhu's neck.

However, this "immortal" seemed a little bigger than the one wrapped around Bai Shu's neck, and it didn't speak much, just looked at him like this.

Baishu's master is inherited from Shen Yugu, and all of them have pure hearts, and they all signed a contract with the immortal beast "immortality".

From this point of view, the old man in front of him might be the first person to make a contract with Changsheng.

By contracting with the immortal, you can learn the secret method "Er Snake Dragging the Dragon Method", which is a secret method that can transfer vitality.

Not only that, but you can also transfer toxins and diseases from other people's bodies into your own body.

He could tell at a glance. Although the old man in front of him looked very healthy, he was actually already extremely ill, with toxins and diseases all accumulated in his body.

To this extent... I'm afraid it has transferred a lot of people's diseases and toxins, and even he can't save the old man.

In his opinion, the old man will die in less than a year.

"You probably only have..."

"Please don't tell me."

The old man interrupted with a smile.

"Most people will not accept it calmly after they know when they will die... Although I am ready to die, if I know the date of my death..."

Maybe, he will lose his original intention because of this.

The old man did not continue. Bai Chu took another look at him and nodded.

"In that case, I won't tell you anymore."

"Have you found the next person to make the contract? Otherwise, this snake will die."

"Yes, he is my disciple."

The old man nodded and stroked the little snake's head.

"That child is very similar to me before... Changsheng also recognizes him."

"Yeah…"

Bai Chu closed his eyes and said no more words.

Now that he has made his own choice, he will not interfere more.

"Now that you have made your decision, I won't say any more."

Bai Chu stood up, glanced at the old man, and shook his head.

"If I have the chance, I will go to your grave and place an incense stick."

"Then thank you." The old man said with a smile and cupped his hands.

His attitude towards death is something ordinary people cannot achieve.

But Bai Chu was also a little curious.

"You could have lived to be around a hundred years old, but now you are about to die before you are seventy years old... Don't you regret it?"

"It would be a lie to say that I don't regret anything... Who doesn't want to live?"

The old man shook his head and said calmly.

That's right, who in the world doesn't want to live a few more years?

He also wants to live.

"I'm not as noble as people say... I also regretted it after signing the contract with Changsheng."

"but…"

When he used this secret method for the first time, he saved a family.

Seeing the surprised and grateful smiles on the family's faces, he suddenly felt in a trance.

I remember that in the past, after he was seriously ill and was cured by Bai Chu who happened to pass by, his family was so happy.

Experiencing this sense of accomplishment for the first time made him excited for a while. By the time I calmed down, I was already in my fifties.

It should be said that he deliberately refused to calm down.

However, at the age of fifty-five, his physical condition is not even as good as that of an old man in his seventies.

Whenever the toxins and diseases in his body broke out, he was in so much pain that he wanted to hit him to death.

It was only in recent years that he finally suppressed his illness.

Because of fear, he has not used that secret method for more than ten years.

"I'm also afraid of death."

He also wants to live a few more years.

Living a few more years means that he can see more of the world and do more of the things he likes...

Who wants to die if he can live?

"But regret is regret... If I have another chance, I will probably do it again."

The old man exhaled his breath and smiled freely.

"Yeah."

I really didn't expect that a brat that I had casually saved before could actually do this for that ideal.

This is what traveling means...meeting different people and seeing people make different choices.

Although there will be regrets...but regrets are also part of travel.

Bai Chu turned around and walked out of the door without any hesitation.

He and the old man just met by chance... They knew each other very well that after this separation, they might never have the chance to meet again in the future.

But that’s how it should be.

Throughout life, we will always meet many people... Maybe we will look at each other and smile when we meet again, but then we will just say goodbye to each other and continue walking our own paths.

Maybe the old man will use that secret method again in the future, causing his lifespan to be shortened again... But that has nothing to do with Bai Chu, he will still continue his journey.

Perhaps he would stop for a moment when the old man died, but that was all.

After he left, he chatted with Orion for a while, and the old man also left.

His death is near. Before his life comes to an end, he must return to Chenyu Valley and let his disciples sign a contract with Changsheng.

They didn't know each other's names until they left.

.........

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

At the foot of a high mountain, I don't know when a stone house appeared.

In front of the door of the stone house, there was a wooden deck chair, with a sleeping young man covering his face with a book lying on it.

This leisurely and contented young man is naturally Bai Chu who has come here.

Even if he is a demon, he will feel tired after walking around all the time.

It would be better to build a stone house here and rest for a month or two before continuing.

"Oh, what a pity."

Bai Chu took off the book covering his face with one hand, shook his head slightly, but still didn't open his eyes.

"A place with such a beautiful scenery, but no one lives here, is a bit deserted."

However, as a place to rest, it's good.

Although the scenery here is beautiful, it is not suitable for people to farm, and it is also located on the border area far away from the central area of ​​​​Liyue, so it is normal that there are no people.

Now he leaves his mark all around. In this way, the devil will not approach rashly.

This place is a good place to make some preparations to deal with the future demon war.

But, let’s talk about those things later.

Bai Chu yawned, covered his face with the book again, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Thousands of years... even the devil will get tired.
