People in the original god, the innkeeper, oppressing his sister

"Why don't you ask me, I want to try it too!"

Paimon landed on the table, protesting loudly.

"You're still a kid, forget it, I'll get you a drink later."

"Paimon is not a child!"

"People who are still wearing baby clothes are not qualified to say such things~"

Gu Bai smiled and lifted her to the table.

"Baby clothes, do they look alike?"

As if he had been hurt by a melting reaction, Pai Meng was stunned, and slowly looked at Yingmei, who nodded at her holding back a smile. .

"Then just listen to Mr. Gu, as long as there is something delicious to drink, I don't really care!"

Seeing this, Paimon hurriedly replied that this topic cannot be allowed to continue, otherwise she will have another weird nickname after a meal.

What's more, once when she and Ying went out for dinner, she secretly tasted some wine. Compared with this tongue-piercing drink, sweet fruit juice is more attractive.

"I want a glass of dandelion wine."

The underage girl Ying raised her hand excitedly. She claimed to be 16 years old and was also one of the victims of the Prohibition.

Although it is not impossible to drink if you want to drink normally, such as packing a cup and taking it away in the name of completing the commission, or putting Paimon on your head, and then wrapping yourself in a long black robe and pretending that you are an adult.

But even so, in the end, the only sparkling wine that didn't have much alcohol taste was bought every time. I don't know if it was discovered by others. Only when I came out with Gu Bai can I drink to my heart's content.

Slightly drunk, sitting on the city wall of Mond and blowing the wind, with the crowds coming in and out below, shaking their legs and waiting for the sun to go down, just thinking about it is a yearning thing.

"Where's Yura?"

"I'll also have a glass of dandelion wine, so that someone won't feel distressed when paying the bill."

"I told you to drink at ease. If you want to save me some money, you can just say so, Miss Yula."

"Hmph, no, I just happen to like it."

So Gu Bai looked for the bartender, and not long after, three glasses of bubbling amber liquid were placed on the table, and when the raspberry mint drink ordered by Paimon was served, they raised their glasses with smiles, Lightly touch together, "Cheers!"

Ying let out a long breath. She almost choked on drinking too much just now, but she still squinted her eyes habitually, and a blush floated on her cheeks. It was obvious that she didn't hold much alcohol, so she took a sip.

The stove in the restaurant is burning hotly, and the rich and powerful Mr. Diluc will not be stingy about this little thing. In such a temperature, drinking a glass of cool dandelion wine seems to disappear the fatigue of the day.

It's a pity that such opportunities don't come often.

Thinking of this, Yingmei shook her head with emotion.

Sure enough, people are full of choices since birth, youth and pleasure, and one of them must be given up.

Ever since she followed Gu Bai's advice and insisted on reading for an hour before going to bed every day, the girl occasionally uttered a few philosophical words.

But don’t be fooled by these seemingly powerful words on the surface. The gold content in them is probably similar to the new biography of Barbatos. If Gu Bai heard this sentence, he would probably try to translate it:

The general idea of ​​this sentence is-either conceal your real age, or give up drinking, you can only choose one of the two things.

You see, isn't this much easier to understand, and the slight sense of embarrassment just now is gone at all.

If she was just a little curious about drinking, the sinner lady beside her probably already regarded it as a hobby.

Not knowing when the wine in the glass was about to run out, Yura held her chin in one hand and looked around:

"It's been a long time since anyone shared a table with me like this. I'm used to sitting in a corner alone. I really don't feel used to this lively atmosphere."

As she unbuttoned the first button of her uniform, her voice became languid:

"Obviously we only met yesterday, but it always feels like we've known each other for a long time."

"Yes." Gu Bai held the wine glass in front of him, he smiled when he heard this, and did not drink it in a hurry:

"In fact, it's not surprising. Maybe in another world, we are friends who have known each other for a long time. We have experienced many adventures together, traveled to many countries and places together, and seen different scenery. Maybe these are real. of it."

It's my misfortune to meet you in another world...

She subconsciously wanted to say that, but of course it wasn't her original intention, it was just a conditioned reflex left by arguing with Gu Bai.

But in the light, she saw that the man in front of her didn't know what he was thinking when he said this sentence, his tone was a bit complicated, and it also carried the meaning of memory, his eyes fell into the empty space, and there was a faint smile on his face.

So the words that ruined the atmosphere were stuck in his stomach.

"Another world..." She said softly, she could leave everything behind and go to the place she wanted to go, it must sound very easy: "That's not bad."

It was getting dark.

……

Several people are still immersed in this sentence.

"I know, this is the so-called love at first sight, let's meet each other later!"

Paimon suddenly came over, she crossed her hips, a little proud of herself for summing up straight to the point, but found that several people in front of her were staring at her viciously.

"If you don't know how to use idioms, don't use them indiscriminately. That's called hitting friends at first sight."

Yingmei flicked Paimon's forehead:

"I told you to read more books, but every time I secretly sleep next to you!"

Gu Bai covered his face:

"Oh, forget it, little brother, add a cold meat platter, and Paimon, who eats obediently, is the cutest."

The atmosphere just now was gone, and the topics of emotions and memories naturally couldn't go on, and then came what happened today.

After taking the second glass of wine, Yula looked at Gu Bai suspiciously:

"Speaking of which, I actually wanted to ask a long time ago, how did you control the scale of the overload reaction? You know, although the electricity released by Ray Slime is usually nothing, once it comes into contact with the fire element, it will blow people up. It's light enough to be bloody."

Ying also looked over curiously. At that time, Guang thought he was handsome, but later Gu Bai was worried when he fell to the ground, and the matter was forgotten. Now that I think about it, it is really not in line with common sense.

"Hmm... a little spell."

Gu Bai thought for a while:

"In terms you can understand, it's probably something like magic, similar to what Miss Lisa knows."

"As you all know, I am from Liyue. There are many immortals over there. In the long history, many spells have been developed to fight against monsters. Some of them have been passed on to mortals, but most of them have faded away. What I know is to make slimes The physiological activity of the body is controlled within a certain range, and then...then what is it?"

Gu Bai started talking nonsense seriously.

The ghost knows what the principle is. This was a whim at the time, and I took out the sealing technique given by the system yesterday morning and used it. But seriously, the final effect is not bad, and there is a lot of room for research.

There is no need to hide this matter, it was found out when the elemental combat skills were obtained, and the Tivat people have long been familiar with such abilities that are different from ordinary people, not to mention that there is one of the biggest bugs sitting on the ground. Next to myself, it's mainly because it's a little troublesome to explain afterwards.

"You mean, turn the slime into a state similar to suspended animation, so as to control the current it emits, and reduce the scale of the overload reaction?"

"Uh……"

Gu Bai opened his eyes wide and looked at Yula speechless for a while.

Miss Yura, I didn't expect you to answer so quickly.

Just listen to the other party continue to say:

"Then go through the backpack of the strange bird. Speaking of which, I picked it up and took a look. The inside of the wooden box is not made of ordinary materials, and it is quite strong. Put the slime in the box, and through the reserved exhaust pipe, put the The instantaneous explosion is transformed into the thrust of lift-off, probably like this?"

"exactly."

Gu Bai quickly nodded:

"I wanted to say this just now, but I forgot. Ms. Yula is amazing."

"Don't be humble."

Yula glanced at him, then raised her chin, and said nothing, as if she was very pleased in her heart:

"The situation was so urgent at that time, not to mention that the backpack was dropped by the strange bird temporarily, you can still think of such a way, bold and careful, although it is indeed dangerous in hindsight, but I have to say, this adaptability, in the At critical moments, you are pretty decent."

As she spoke, she patted the fullness of her chest with lingering fear:

"By the way, fortunately, the cultural relics were not damaged."

But probably thinking of someone's shameless behavior after landing, Yura looked at him with fierce eyes again.

"I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed, as an honorary knight, I just made a small contribution, nothing..."

Gu Bai laughed, although this theory was made up by Yula's brain, but he really thought so at the time.

As for why the cultural relic was not broken, it was certainly not a random lucky event. When I snatched the box from the strange bird's arms, I immediately stuffed it into the system space, and took it out after it fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the few people present were so busy watching him show off with their mouths wide open that they didn't have time to pay attention to this.

"Let's not talk about this for now. It's okay to reveal it to you. This matter itself is nothing, but the meaning behind it is of great significance."

Gu Bai's tone became serious:

"On the way back, I had a flash of inspiration. Everyone, an epoch-making great invention will come out soon. With it, even in the hot summer, you can drink cold drinks at any time. Do you look forward to it?"

"I remembered. On the way back, it turned out that you fell behind for a while to do this."

Yula shook the wine glass, seeing Gu Bai nodding towards her, the unhappiness just now hadn't dissipated: "Also, I don't expect much at all, I can drink cold drinks anytime I want."

Gu Bai stared at her speechlessly, and was about to take back what he said before. It seems that this vengeful monster is not just arrogant, it is really capable of holding grudges behind its back——

Hey, why are you here to join in the fun with the eye of the ice elemental god, does it have anything to do with you?Don't come to tear down the stage, okay?

Thinking of this, he suddenly noticed Yula's wine glass, which was covered with a layer of mist, and water droplets flowed down the glass wall.

"No way, do you drink cold in this weather?"

"What's the matter, I have been here all year round, and I have long been used to it. Wouldn't it be the biggest joke if the owner of the God's Eye of Ice Element is afraid of the cold, ha, it's better to say, I like cool things very much. "

Gu Bai curiously handed over the cup:

"It's really a convenient ability, how about you chill it for me too?

"do not want!"

It was just a clean rejection, and Yura pushed the cup back:

"You really don't know the seriousness. Why do you act like a child sometimes? Don't you have a cold? If you drink something so cold, if the illness becomes more serious in the end and you can't get up in bed, then who am I going to seek revenge from?" go?"

"See if your eyes are ready to say some annoying words again. I declare in advance that I don't care about you. You have learned the traditional virtues of the Lawrence family well, but it's better not to be sentimental."

Then she quietly turned her head and glanced in Gu Bai's direction, only to find that the other party was discussing a great invention with Paimon, whose eyes were shining.

"Hey, when the lady is talking, don't you even put down what you are doing and look directly into her eyes, don't you understand, you...Ah Choo..."

Yura hastily covered her mouth, but there was another sneezing sound.

"Ah!"

Of course, it wasn't the reverberation caused by the loud voice, the bastard named Gu Bai followed her closely and sneezed.

Qiao's face blushed, it was an extremely embarrassing thing to do in public, not to mention that someone had learned from her in a decent way.

"Don't learn from me, bastard!"

"I really didn't learn from you this time. I've said it all. I've already caught a cold..."

……

As night falls, the second floor of the Knights' Order.

Coming out of the bathroom, Yura tightened her clothes.Under the moonlight, the whiteness on her chest was completely covered by her.

Opening the window in the corridor, the cold evening wind suddenly blows in, as if the whole person has become clear.

The hair has not been completely dried, and the towel is clutched in his hand, which has a faint fragrance of bath products.She looked forward, the city in the distance, the lights were flickering, the day was coming to an end, and what happened in her mind was about what happened during the day.There are nervous and angry ones, often mixed with a few farces.

A faint smile played on her lips.

For this city, I am like a passer-by.

She stretches out her hand, sometimes the wind can catch it, and the destination of the sinner is something more piercing than the wind at night, like the solid ice on a snowy mountain, it will eventually burn out in the flames of hatred, leaving nothing behind. trace.

The brief warmth will be swallowed up, or become part of that flame.

This point, she has always been very clear.

Everything seemed to be a coincidence. I received Qin's letter that day, and I rushed back from the wilderness without much thought. I was in a hurry along the way, and I didn't even eat much. Then... Fortunately, I chose this way at the time.

However, since it is a coincidence, its most fascinating part lies in its delicate and fragile structure like spider silk, with many causes and effects, once an extremely tiny link is missing, it will lead to different results.

We parted outside the tavern at dusk. At that time, everyone drank a little too much and didn't say much.Now that I think about it, I just know their names and temporary residences. I don't know much about them, but I am very happy.

It may be a beautiful beginning in the eyes of ordinary people, but for me, it also means the end.
