Do not die

Young people may still be able to find ways to convince them of their ideas, but Meng Zhou said there was really nothing he could do to change an old man's ideas.

You're not called stubborn, you're not called stubborn for nothing.

He didn't know what the difficulties of Granny Bai were, and he didn't know what the secrets of the entanglement between Bai Zhi and the grandsons surnamed Bai were.

The only thing he was sure of was that there was really nothing he could do to change Granny Bai's attitude.

After leaving the grocery store, Meng Zhou did not go back to the hotel directly. Instead, he went for a long circle in the water.

When he came back from the other direction, he had returned to his tall, slim appearance and had changed back into his original clothes.

Back in the hotel room, Meng Zhou was practicing martial arts while thinking about this matter in his mind.

Although Grandma Bai had nowhere to use her strength, Meng Zhou did not give up completely. Anyway, he had paid a month's rent here, and it was not even a third of the time.

Meng Zhou had a new idea in his mind.

"Well, just go out and walk around every day, just think of it as practicing the Ten Thousand Miles of Divine Movement."

Ever since I came to Baiyue Bay, my practice of Wanli Shenxing has come to a standstill. I went out for two big walks today, and then I gained another 40 experience points.

Then, Meng Zhou began today's practice.

Although it took a lot of time to come and go, he also canceled his daily afternoon check-in at the teahouse.

In addition, after his cultivation level reached the fourth level of Qi training, his mana became more abundant, so the practice of the other three martial arts except the Phantom Step Wandering Dragon was not affected at all.

The efficiency has even been improved, and the daily experience gained is +60. On the contrary, the magic step dragon's daily experience gain was cut in half, becoming +30 per day.

The next day, Meng Zhou went out early just like yesterday.

Tashihui left Baiyue Bay, surrounded by a vast expanse of water, with no one else but himself.

His body shape began to change, and the bones around his body were only slightly adjusted, making him more than ten centimeters shorter.

The muscle membrane also moved and adjusted slightly, becoming burly and solid, completely different from the slender and slim figure before.

Then, Meng Zhou rearranged his hair and changed his clothes.

Finally, he reached out and gently stroked his chin, and the beard that was firmly rooted in the pores was detached from his chin.

Meng Zhou took out a silk scarf, wrapped it carefully and put it in his arms.

When he changes back to his previous appearance, these beards will have to be put back on.

As for the fact that his beard can be flexibly "detached and assembled", it is a piece of cake for him who can control the state of his muscles and skin to a great extent.

At this moment, Meng Zhou had walked far away from the water to the water in front of Yuewan Beach. He once again set foot on this delicate white beach and found a secluded and open place to practice quietly.

The practice of Wanli Shenxing requires a wide enough space and cannot be practiced in a room. He simply moved around the graffitied stone wall from a distance.

When it was getting late and the sun was setting in the west, he changed into another image and returned to the hotel.

On the second and third days, he continued his routine like this.

On the fourth day, it was still the same.

In the afternoon, the three martial arts skills of Left and Right Fighting, Thousand Hands, and Sudden Rain and Wind Sword surpassed Wanli Shenxing. They came from behind and were promoted from master to grandmaster one after another.

Meng Zhou was already thinking that today would be the same as the previous few days. It was even possible that Bai Ya had been grounded by Granny Bai, but he was not impatient because of it. Anyway, his mentality was very open-minded. It would be good if he could succeed, but it didn't matter if he couldn't succeed. .

Even so, this trip was not in vain. At least, after solving this mystery, he would no longer have any knots in his heart.

At this moment, Meng Zhou's eyes lit up, and a thin figure appeared in the distance, staying on the sandy ground where she stayed last time.

However, she did not sit down and play with straw as he thought. Instead, she faced the stone wall and rubbed her hands and fingers on the stone wall, as if she was tracing something.

After a long time, she sat down and immersed herself in knitting.

When a lifelike straw grasshopper was born between her fingers, her mind returned with complete concentration and she was suddenly startled.

Because she saw a pair of big feet and a pair of legs as straight and strong as pillars, she squinted her eyes and looked up, and finally saw clearly that the person in front of her was the person who came to the door with her aunt's token a few days ago, but was having sex with her mother-in-law. Uncle Qiang had a big fight.

Seeing him suddenly appearing here, she thought of many possibilities in her mind, and each one made her tremble with fear.

She opened her mouth and stumbled and shouted: "Uncle...uncle...uncle, why...are you...here?"

Meng Zhou said: "Do you want to become a little stutterer? Straighten your tongue and speak."

Bai Ya closed her mouth.

"I don't know how to eat shit, so why are you so scared?"

Meng Zhou's attitude gradually calmed down Bai Ya's mood, but looking at his expression, he was still timid.

Meng Zhou said: "Bai Zhi is your aunt?"

Bai Ya closed her mouth tightly. At this time, she seemed to have finally remembered her mother-in-law's advice.

Meng Zhou ignored it and continued:

"You said, is it immoral for this Bai Zhi to give people inferior skills to practice, making them hopeless in building a foundation in this life?

Isn't this behavior shameful? Should he be cursed and scorned? "

Bai Ya's mouth was still tightly closed, but her wide eyes were already filled with tears, as if she would be unable to hold them back any moment and stay.

It's so fun to bully a little girl.

Meng Zhou looked at the sand around him and suddenly said: "I have an idea. Let's pile up some Angelica dahurica here, then spit on her and curse her not to..."

Before she could finish her words, Bai Ya's eyes suddenly burst into tears like a bursting flood, and she shouted: "No!"

Because he was so excited, his voice broke when he yelled.

"Uncle, don't, don't curse her, please don't do this..."

"I practiced her technique, but it was hopeless to build the foundation. She caused me so much misery, why did I curse her? She was right in front of me, and I cursed her to feel confident!"

"She didn't mean it..."

"She made it impossible for me to build a foundation."

"She...she is a good person..."

"She made it impossible for me to build a foundation."

No matter how Bai Ya defended herself, Meng Zhou pushed her to the edge of the cliff step by step with just one sentence.

Suddenly, at a loss for words, she stretched out her hand and wiped it hard on her face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Uncle, please stop talking. Tomorrow... tomorrow you come here again!"

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow!"

Bai Ya turned around and walked away with firm steps and clenched fists, like a warrior who was about to go into danger alone.

Looking at her retreating back, Meng Zhou commented to himself: "I am really a bad guy."

At this moment, I overlapped with the image of a bad boy who instigated children to go home and steal money to play games.

Time flew by and it was already the afternoon of the next day.

Bai Ya bowed her body slightly and trotted over from a distance. It seems that this way she can make her presence lower and more hidden.

She came to Meng Zhou and handed him a yellowed ancient book, "Water Nourishes and Moisturizes the Body".

"Here you go, from now on, you can't curse her or say bad things about her, otherwise, it's your fault!"

After that, she left without looking back.

"Is this the end? Come back!" Meng Zhou shouted and immediately stopped her in place.

Just when she was at a loss and thinking wildly, a heavy bag was stuffed into her hand.

"Who do you think I am? Take it!"

"What?" she whispered softly.

"You can't see it yourself?"

She unzipped the rope that tied the bag, lowered her head and looked inside. She saw a bag full of spiritual stones. As a little girl, she had never seen such a huge sum of money. She was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.

"There are four medium-grade spiritual stones and four hundred low-grade spiritual stones in it. Although this type of technique sells for a thousand low-grade spiritual stones in Duobao Tower, I already spent a lot of money when I bought the Water Nourishing Technique. Pen, not only did I not take advantage of you, but I actually lost money."

Of course, this is just one reason, and another reason is that he wants to keep some spiritual stones as a backup.

"Oh." Bai Ya didn't know how to refuse, so she answered stupidly while holding the bag of spirit stones, "Then can I go?"

Meng Zhou looked at the spirit stone in her hand and said, "Just leaving like this? You don't want to go back alive, right?"

Meng Zhou was also a little helpless. It would be nice if he had more middle-grade spiritual stones. It wouldn't be such a burden. Hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones were handed over to a little girl. Shen Du was second to none. More importantly, it was not very safe. .

Bai Ya reacted and quickly put the spirit stone bag into her arms and hid it.

Seeing this scene, Meng Zhou suddenly remembered something else.

"Bai Ya."

"Ah?" Bai Ya, who had hidden the spirit stone bag in her arms, looked at him again after hearing this, as if asking, uncle, what else do you want?

Meng Zhou said in a deep voice: "When you go back, remember to remind your mother-in-law and ask her to move as soon as possible."

"Ah? Why?"

"Little girl, do you know what it means to eat a dead household?"

Bai Ya shook her head blankly.

After a long time, the confusion on her face turned into panic.

Seeing this, Meng Zhou couldn't bear it. But let me remind you quietly, it is already the limit of his ability, and he is unable to mix anything. What's more, with Granny Bai's weird temper, others may not accept this love.

He waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go, be careful on the road."

After saying that, Meng Zhou turned around and left.

"Uncle."

"Huh?" Meng Zhou turned to look at her.

"You are a good person!" Bai Ya said seriously.

Meng Zhou couldn't laugh or cry. If she were a few years older, her words would have depressed him for at least half a year.

Bai Ya reached into her arms, took out something, and placed it preciously in his palm.

Meng Zhou looked at the straw grasshopper in his hand in surprise as if it was about to jump away at any moment.

"Give it to me?"

"Well, give it to you!"

"Okay, thank you!"

Meng Zhou looked at it carefully from all angles, then took it into his arms and solemnly thanked her.

He turned to leave again.

"Uncle."

"Um?"

Meng Zhou stopped and turned around again, thinking to himself, this girl is not taking revenge on me, after all, she made her cry so miserably yesterday.

"Are you the uncle who asked me for directions that day?" she said suddenly.

When Meng Zhou heard this, he was stunned at first, and then shuddered. Instead of denying it, he asked: "How did you see it?"

"Because you are all greedy for the grasshopper I made up, and other adults won't even take a second look at it."

"Uh..." Her explanation left Meng Zhou speechless.

He thought there was some fatal flaw in his disguise that actually allowed a little girl to spot the suspicion, but he didn't expect this to be the reason.

She was right. She was indeed a bit greedy for knitting grasshoppers. To be more precise, he was greedy for not just grasshoppers, but also any exquisite hand-knitted fabrics. This was an obsession that came from his childhood in his previous life.

His craftsmanship is terrible, but there are peers who can use local materials to weave pistols, spears, cats and dogs and other toys out of common things. He is really envious of this, even as an adult, this kind of envy The feeling remains undiminished.

As a handicraft waste, he was convinced that he would never be able to do what others could do when they were only a few years old.

A world away, he saw a child with a similar talent and an even more powerful one, and the relevant memories were naturally brought back. In addition, he really didn't pay attention to this aspect, and he never thought that he had accidentally missed the point. .

Seeing him froze in place with a "uh" sound, Bai Ya showed a victorious smile, turned around and ran away.

…

Bai Ya trotted all the way back to Gujing Street, and the sky was already dark.

The grocery store was also closed, with only a small side door ajar. Seeing this scene, she felt nervous and walked in quietly.

After taking only two steps, a cold voice sounded in the house:

"Girl, you really have strong wings. Not only do you dare to lie, you actually learned to steal!"

Bai Ya trembled in fright, slowly turned towards the direction of the sound, put her feet together and stood up straight, looking like an honest child waiting to be punished.

"Mother-in-law," she shouted.

"Come here!" Granny Bai said.

Bai Ya walked over in small steps.

"Kneel down!"

Bai Ya knelt on the ground with a pop.

Granny Bai was lying on the wicker chair, squinting her eyes, as if she was asleep.

Bai Ya knew that according to her mother-in-law's temper, she would not say another word until she was satisfied.

But when she thought about her uncle's reminder just now, she didn't care so much anymore and said hurriedly: "Mother-in-law, I have something important to tell you!"

"Shut up, have you forgotten the rules? Even if it is a big deal, wait until you are punished before talking about it!" Granny Bai said coldly.

"It's really important, it's a matter of our life and death!" Bai Ya said hurriedly, her face full of anxiety.

Granny Bai stopped making sarcastic remarks and lay there motionless, as if she was completely dead.

After a long time, she said with a cold tone and a joking tone:

"Then tell me what is the matter of life and death.

Is the sky going to collapse, or is Baiyue Bay going to sink? "

"Huh?" Her words left Bai Ya stunned, her little head almost burned out, and she didn't know how to answer.

Granny Bai continued: "Did you steal the skills to give to the person who came to the door that day?"

"Um."

"Then, he used that huge news that affects our life and death to take away this skill from you?"

"ah?"

"Have you ever grown a brain? It's so simple..."

Granny Bai was about to reprimand, but was interrupted by a "pop" sound at her feet.

She opened her eyes and saw a bag of spiritual stones being thrown on the ground, with hundreds of spiritual stones scattered on the ground.

"Mother-in-law, you guessed wrong. Uncle bought it from Hua Lingshi."

Bai Ya did not dare to delay, and she had no idea of ​​"taking advantage of the victory to attack" her mother-in-law, so she quickly told Meng Zhou's reminder about "eating the whole family".

Granny Bai, who was still a little solemn after seeing the spirit stone, relaxed again and said hehe, "I really thought I had some brilliant insights."

Bai Ya continued:

"Uncle said, you must think that you are hiding something and that your strength is much stronger than what everyone sees, so you are confident.

But he said that unless you are strong enough to overwhelm the entire Baiyue Bay, you will not be able to change our dangerous situation. "

"Uncle said, mother-in-law, you have hidden some strength, which is not important at all.

The important thing is that everyone thinks that you are only at the fifth level of Qi training and that you are aging rapidly. "

Grandma Bai couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and even wanted to make fun of it.

But soon, she vaguely realized something, and thought about it more carefully for a while.

Suddenly, it was like falling into an ice cave.
