Bard of Time

After sending Aunt Ivy away, he seemed to have relaxed his whole body. He had a major event on his mind, and it was the only thing he cared about. His only regret was that he waited on Ivy too late.

Mu Xiaobai's life became more and more lazy, and the small shop was often closed. Mu Xiaobai only wanted to survive starvation.

"You have to cheer up." The aunt who worked for him sighed.

"I just want to live a more leisurely life." Mu Xiaobai squinted his eyes and didn't care.

At the beginning, he bought the storefront, decoration, and added kitchen utensils and accessories, and he had already spent none of the one hundred gold coins left. However, after several years of hard work, he has saved a little and bought a house. assets.

Even if you deal with it later, you can get by.

Aunt shook her head, she still couldn't bear to Mu Xiaobai.

If this child continues to be depressed like this, how can this be done!

The aunt is still greeting customers in front of the store.

On this day, two well-dressed men who looked like rich men walked in. Both of them looked good, like porcelain dolls. The elf looked even better, just like a man who came down from the sky. .

"Waiter, what signature dishes do you have here?" The shorter but extravagant man raised his eyebrows.

The aunt hurriedly said: "All of our dishes are signature dishes. To tell you the truth, the entire Los Fairmont is full of praise for this reputation!"

The two people looked at each other, only to see the man said again: "Then give it all, I have to taste it."

"Uh...but our dishes are also divided into breakfast and noon, you see..."

"There are quite a few rules." The elf man smiled, "How about our lunch?"

The other man nodded in agreement.

The aunt was stunned for a moment: "Then... where are the drinks?"

Sai Luo raised his eyebrows: "Just give us two casual drinks."

The aunt nodded and reminded the two of them: "Sorry, our chef never uses magic, maybe the time is a little slower, you two..."

"We may as well." said the elf with an amiable smile.

The aunt was relieved, and hurried to the back to find Mu Xiaobai. Two big customers came today.

"You two, these two plates are appetizers, and they are given away for free." The aunt brought two plates of side dishes, which were crisp and raw in color, and tasted very tasty, salty, and also increased appetite.

"This skill!" The elf's eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at the people around him excitedly, "This cook is a good cook, if you like it, let's take him back."

The other man smiled without denying it.

Afterwards, the dishes were brought up one by one.

"It looks good." The elf nodded, looking at those green vegetables, his appetite improved.

The man on the other side also nodded covetously. Seeing so many meat dishes, he felt better.

After the two of them had a feast, there was no food left.

The man with an expensive face patted his swollen belly while drinking milk tea, and said with satisfaction: "Let your boss come out to see me."

The aunt saw that these two people looked extraordinary, and felt that Mu Xiaobai might encounter a big opportunity, so she hurriedly turned to look for Mu Xiaobai.

Mu Xiaobai washed his hands, took off the apron from his body, and came to the front of the store happily. He walked out with small steps, and was stunned when he came out.

The people in front of me are Sai Luo...and Lin Nizhi? !

"What are you doing, look stupid?!" Sai Luo snorted, "Szell, I have a good life, I won't come to you for feelings, and you won't come to me, and then I will live in this small place for the rest of my life ?!"

Aunt was taken aback, this... I still know this? !Wasn't Mu Xiaobai bragging when he told her that he was once rich? !Are they all true? !

Mu Xiaobai was startled for a while, and soon recovered, he turned to his aunt and said, "That's it for today, you should go back first."

"Okay, I won't bother you to reminisce about the old days." The aunt is also a straightforward person, not to mention that the old man may be able to give this passive child a hand, which is what she is happy to see.

Mu Xiaobai turned around, only to see Sai Luo's playful face.

So, Mu Xiaobai said in a good mood: "A total of twenty gold coins, thank you for your patronage."

Sai Luo curled his lips: "Tell me about the money!"

"I'm sorry, this is a small business." Mu Xiaobai pulled out the chair and sat down politely, without a trace of apology on his face.

"Yes, I will give it to you later." Sai Luo rolled his eyes and kept looking at him, "I was afraid that you would deny it, so I brought Lin Nizhi here."

Lin Nizhi squinted his eyes, looked at the familiar disguise, and couldn't help saying: "You...you are Szel?!" Oh my god, Szel's voice...how did it become like this? !

Mu Xiaobai nodded to him, and then said to Sai Luo: "Thanks to you bringing the Duke here, otherwise I really wouldn't admit it, I live a good life here, and you will have to disturb me when you come here."

Sai Luo has long been used to Mu Xiaobai's unpleasant voice, so he just smiled and said: "You still have the nerve to say, look at what you have become, you came out before me, but you have been in a coma for so long, look at you That thin little body, tsk tsk."

Mu Xiaobailei accepted Sai Luo's ridicule wholeheartedly.

Lin Nizhi was not as relieved as the two of them. He couldn't help but said, "You are in this small place? Everyone thought you would leave the land of Berbaki. Do you know that Berbaki has been outside all these years?" You're crazy, even Hemingway is troubled by it, but you are better..."

"Coins!" Sai Luo yelled, "Don't mention that scumbag in front of the two of us!"

Lindsay immediately became honest.

Mu Xiaobai smiled indifferently: "I don't know about that, by the way, what are you guys doing here today?"

Sai Luo took another sip of milk tea and said, "Don't say it, I was quite happy that you disappeared at first, you finally got rid of that scumbag, how can the people over there be so cheap! But, I I thought you would come to me, but I waited and waited but I didn't find you, didn't I promise to come and manage my finances for me!"

Mu Xiaobai looked at him in surprise: "Who told you? I didn't agree at all."

"Okay, okay, you haven't come for so many years, I knew you wouldn't come." Sai Luo rolled his eyes, "Are you coming with me now?"

Mu Xiaobai shook his head: "I think this place is very good, and this is where I started."

Sai Luo smiled and said: "I also guessed that you will return to this place, that's why you came here. However, Bobaki doesn't seem to have expected it."

Mu Xiaobai laughed lowly: "How could he know? I told him roughly that my hometown is Los Fairmont. He probably won't remember it long ago."

"It shouldn't be." Sai Luo was puzzled: "I heard that he hasn't been back to the castle in the past few years. He has been looking for you outside. He has gone wherever he can and cannot go. There is no reason to miss this place. What's more, you have opened a shop, it's so obvious that I can find it, but it doesn't make sense that he can't find it."

Mu Xiaobai was speechless.

Is he happy to hear that Nantemon is looking for him?

Hmm...it seems not.It's just that the calm is terrifying.

"Actually, I forgot how many years I've been away from there. Counting it now, it's been five or six years." Mu Xiaobai said with emotion, "Actually, I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I even wanted to talk about marrying a wife. "

Sai Luo and Lin Nizhi's faces were stiff.

Uh...Mu Xiaobai has always been a straight man.

"However, those who are too young can't do it, those who are too old can't do it, and the middle-aged people have families, and even if they want to find a good-for-nothing elf, they can't find it." Mu Xiaobai sighed. I gave up. My parents died when I was very young. I also said that they left so early. It turned out that they met each other when they were dying and gave birth to me. If it was later, I would be gone. "

Lin Nizhi euphemistically said: "Well, this...it's hard to find a partner..." The waste wood elves are now consumables, and one dies one less, because they are waste wood, so most of the children born are also waste wood, so If the good-for-nothing elves can't meet their kind, or if they don't get married by old and ugly people, if they don't get sold, they will only be lonely for a lifetime, because most people don't want to see them.

"However, if I'm really that old, I probably won't look for it." Mu Xiaobai said coolly, "So it's still suitable for me to be alone."

"But no one knows that you are a good-for-nothing elf, so it's good to trick one back." Sai Luo said sullenly.

"You can't be fooled!" Mu Xiaobai laughed.

Because he liked Mu Xiaobai's cooking skills so much, Sai Luo got tired of Los Fairmont for a while.

until a month later.

Sai Luo whispered in Mu Xiaobai's ear: "Hey, pay more attention to that old man who comes to your store at noon every day and always sits at table one."

This sentence is somewhat inexplicable.

Sai Luo and Lin Nizhi have their own spaceships, so when they left, Mu Xiaobai just sent them out of the city.

"Come here often when you are free." Mu Xiaobai was still smiling.

Sai Luo and Lin Nizhi flew away.

Sai Luo glanced back at this unreliable fellow, and then muttered in a low voice: "Bobaki, I'll give you some face."

With Sero's instructions, Mu Xiaobai really took a few more glances at the old man who was always at table one.

Usually the aunts are the receptionists in front of the store, so Mu Xiaobai really didn't pay much attention to the old man in the store, but these days he looked at the old man every day, as if his eyes were too naked, several times the old man didn't even look at the old man. He slipped away quickly before finishing eating, which made Mu Xiaobai touch his chin and wonder if he had frightened the old man.

But Sai Luo actually said it, so this old man must not be simple.

But the problem is, no matter from which angle Mu Xiaobai looked at the old man, the old man kept his head down, and all he could see was a white head and a crooked body, a vivid image of a bad old man.

He suddenly had an idea in his mind, but quickly rejected it because it was too impractical.

Then, taking advantage of the fine weather one day, Mu Xiaobai took the initiative to drink a cup of milk tea and sat next to the old man.

The old man's head lowered.

"Old man." Mu Xiaobai tried his best to soften his voice, but the hoarse voice still made the old man tremble.

If Mu Xiaobai's voice in the past could make people's ears pregnant, then his current voice simply raped other people's ears. Mu Xiaobai looked at the cowering old man and couldn't bear to leave.

After a while, Mu Xiaobai came back with a stack of paper and a pen in his hand.

Mu Xiaobai wrote: "Sorry, I scared you."

The old man took it over and took a look, his voice suddenly stammered, and he was a little choked up: "No, I didn't dislike you, you should talk to me, just talk to me..."

Mu Xiaobai was a little dazed, what was the old man in front of him doing?

The old man was also taken aback, suddenly, he dropped a handful of gold coins, turned around and ran, as if eating a king's meal, running so fast.

Mu Xiaobai was still in a daze.

He seemed to have seen the old man's dodging eyes just now.

Those are not like the eyes an old man should have.Not cloudy, but desolate.

The author has something to say:

I think you all guessed who that old man is, alas...
