C938 Xin Qiu's Disciple
Bai Yifei sat down next to the old man and picked up another skewer of fish to roast on the fire.
He was indeed talented in cooking. Even if he were to roast a fish, he would be able to endure the heat evenly. Soon, it would turn golden and crisp.
The old man couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Your culinary skills are really good."
Bai Yifei smiled and then asked, "Old man, it's not good for you to wander around like this. If anything happens, no one will know."
The old man smiled and said, "I have no children, and I don't have any worries by myself. I like to wander around. When I can't walk anymore, I will be dead."
Bai Yifei had already roasted a bunch of fish. He handed it to the old man and said, "There are birds and insects on this island. If you die, aren't you afraid of being offended by them?"
"You are already dead. How would you know this?" The old man said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I can't feel it anymore."
Bai Yifei felt that what the old man said made sense, but perhaps it was due to the influence of some of the customs around him that he still felt that when a person died, he should return to the dust and not be offended so casually.
"Old man, let me show you a way. Follow this road all the way to the east. After walking past two mountains, you will be able to see the city." Bai Yifei smiled and said, "It used to be called District 3, but now it is different. It is called Bright City."
"That place has been rebuilt. There are hospitals and nursing homes. You can go and take a look."
The old man shook his head and said, "No, I don't have gold."
"No need for gold." Bai Yifei replied seriously.
The two of them chatted casually and finished all the fish before they knew it.
The old man asked Bai Yifei, "Are you full?"
"I'm full." Bai Yifei nodded.
The old man immediately smiled. "It's good that you're full. Only then will you have the strength to work."
"What do you do?" Bai Yifei was very surprised.
The old man stood up, picked up his black backpack, and walked into the depths step by step.
Bai Yifei looked at his hunched back and frowned slightly.
No matter where he looked, The old man was just an ordinary old man. He didn't feel any hidden energy or killing intent, but he felt something was wrong.
Because when he was at the creek, he did not feel his presence.
...
At this moment, on a mountain peak in a certain mountain range.
Xin Qiu was sitting outside the wooden house. His head was lowered, and he was seriously fiddling with the yarn in his hand.
Beside him was a wooden table with a teapot and three teacups on it.
Suddenly, he stopped knitting. He looked up and said, "Come over if you're here. Otherwise, the tea will be cold."
After saying that, he stuffed the unfinished sweater behind his back.
Then, two other people appeared on the top of the mountain. They were walking towards Xin Qiu step by step.
Xin Qiu was very calm about their arrival. He even picked up the teapot and filled up the teacup.
The two men stood side by side. They bowed slightly and said, "Disciple greets master."
These two men were Liang Mingyue and Giza.
Xin Qiu just smiled and said, "Sit down and drink tea."
Probably not many people knew Liang Mingyue and Giza were Xin Qiu's disciples.
Xin Qiu looked at Giza and asked, "You are my second generation disciple, right?"
Giza looked very young. He was in his thirties. His skin was not too dark. It was the color of wheat. He nodded and said, "Yes."
Xin Qiu then looked at Liang Mingyue. "Mingyue is the third generation, right?"
Liang Mingyue also nodded. "Yes."
Xin Qiu then asked, "From the moment you faked your death, you already guessed that Bai Yunpeng would prove your innocence, and your real goal is to make the Taoist priest become President of Merchant Union."
"At that time, the Taoist priest asked me to help get rid of the criminals on the Blue Island. You also guessed that I would send Qi Qi there."
"At the same time, you asked the Taoist priest to pressure Bai Yifei and almost killed him. You also told Zi Yi about this. Zi Yi came to me. I have no choice but to ask Qi Qi to protect Bai Yifei temporarily."
"So, the final result was that Bai Yifei followed Qi Qi to the blue island. Some of the things that happened on the blue island were lured by you step by step. Even the location of Third Treasury was secretly arranged by you."
"Bai Yifei knew the secret of the Third Treasury, and you arranged for someone to give it to him. You wanted him to help you protect the Third Treasury temporarily, because you have seen through Bai Yifei's character and know that he won't move."
"At the same time, you have used this point to create a big picture. It has allowed all these people who covet the vault to slowly surface. However, there must be a prerequisite for all of this."
"That is, Bai Yifei must have the strength to do it. Therefore, you have already planted a chess piece ten years ago, just like Lau Zhaofeng and Meng Qing. Now, it seems like the same goes for the Taoist priest."
"But I still don't understand one thing."
"Ten years ago, when you arranged these things, we didn't recognize Bai Yifei as one of the candidates for the number one vault. So why did you choose him?"
"And you could have waited until Bai Yifei took over the number one vault before making any moves. That way, you would be safe and get the number one vault."
Liang Mingyue was not surprised by Xin Qiu's words. He took a sip of tea and said, "There is still some surprise in this ring."
"I thought it was a god of death left for Bai Yifei, but I didn't expect this god of death to have lost his memory."
"Why did he choose him?" Liang Mingyue paused for a moment and said, "The reason should be the same as Master."
"The other thing is that I can wait a little longer. If that is the case, everything will be very simple, but I cannot wait."
After listening to Liang Mingyue's answer, Xin Qiu nodded and did not say anything. Instead, he turned to ask Giza, "How is the house?"
"My son just passed away." Giza sighed.
"My condolences." Xin Qiu said calmly.
Giza said, "Bai Yifei killed him."
Xin Qiu was surprised. He sighed and said, "Bai Yifei grew too fast."
It was so fast that it exceeded everyone's expectation.
Xin Qiu asked again, "Do they know that they are actually your biological children?"
Giza shook her head and said, "They think they are of the same father and half mother."
Xin Qiu said again, "Then what if they kill each other for your position?"
"Survival of the fittest. This is the rule of the south gate." Giza replied calmly.2
The three of them fell silent.
After an unknown amount of time. Liang Mingyue smiled and asked, "Master, it's getting late."
Xin Qiu looked at the sky when he heard this. It was noon and the sun was high in the sky. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's getting late."
Gisai also looked at Xin Qiu. His eyes were slightly red. "Master, is there anything else you want to say?"
Xin Qiu was silent for a while and said, "I have taught twenty or thirty disciples for so many years. Only Qi Qi comes to see me often."
Liang Mingyue's tone was much lower, "Everyone is too busy."
Giza said, "Master. We will come to see you every year."
"Bang!"
Just as Giza finished speaking, Liang Mingyue suddenly attacked. He hit the tea table with his palm and the tea table instantly cracked.
A dark force spread out like a solid airflow.
At the same time, Giza also punched Xin Qiu.
...
In the Third Treasury of Blue Island.
Bai Yifei saw Zi Yi and told him the purpose of his visit.
Zi Yi smiled and looked at Bai Yifei with a very loving look.
When Bai Yifei saw this, he shook his head and said, "Master, don't look at me like that. I'm scared."
Zi Yi smiled again and said, "I know you have a heart. I'm very content."
