On the occasion of collapse

"Hey, what are you doing carrying my package?" Looking at the package held by Bai Zhi, the old man obviously cheered up.

"Hmph, I'll give it back to you when you come out." Bai Zhi snorted very arrogantly, refusing to tell the old man what the surprise was.

"Okay, okay, why don't I go out?" There was really nothing he could do with Bai Zhi, so the old man could only put on his robe casually and followed Bai Zhi carrying his own package and walked out.

Walking to the yard, Bai Zhi placed the package on the stone that the old man made when he taught her the sword moves. Then she stared at the old man and sat on the stone. After confirming that the old man would not sneak into the house with the package, he nodded with satisfaction. .

"Old man, just watch it." Bai Zhi picked up her sword and slowly pulled it out.

When she was learning sword dancing from Miss Yan, except for the simple sword she used for the first time, she always used her own sword after that.

So she got used to it.

The old man on the side watched Bai Zhi pull out the sword and thought it was some breakthrough in Bai Zhi's sword move.

With such confidence, could it be that there has been some major breakthrough?

That was indeed a little surprise.

The old man thought for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction.

But the next second, he knew that he had guessed wrong.

Bai Zhi standing in the center of the yard moves gently, the sword in her hand ripples slightly, the soft beauty and heroic spirit are cleverly combined together, creating a unique beauty.

Seeing Bai Zhi's dancing figure, the old man was stunned. Only now did he understand what surprise Bai Zhi was talking about.

With trembling hands, he opened the package that Bai Zhi had taken out. The old man took out the well-maintained flute and put it to his mouth.

"Woooo~" The melodious sound of the flute sounded in the courtyard. The old man sat cross-legged on the stone, slowly playing the flute and looking at the dancing girls in the courtyard.

"Ale, am I beautiful?"

nice.

"Ale, do you like the way I look?"

like.

"Ale, let's get married."

it is good.

.........

"Ale...I have no choice but to marry you..."

The past came to mind like a tide. The old man played the flute slowly, and two lines of turbid tears flowed down his old face, and finally fell to the ground and disappeared.

After a long time, the sound of the flute finally stopped, and the sword dance also ended.

"Old man?" Bai Zhi looked at the old man with tears on his face and walked over cautiously.

She only found out today that the old man could play the flute.

She had never seen the old man play the flute in so many years, and she had only seen the flute a few times at most.

But today, the old man played the flute.

"It's okay, old man, I'm not that fragile." The old man wiped away the tears on his face and said to Bai Zhi.

"Old man..." Looking at the old man's old face, Bai Zhi suddenly felt a little distressed.

What happened to the old man?

She had only seen the old man who liked to lie on the bed and drink. She only knew that the old man didn't like to have too much to do with others.

If she hadn't had nowhere to go, the old man probably wouldn't have adopted her.

Therefore, she didn't know the old man's past at all.

She only knew that the old man was a very powerful slayer. She didn't know what level he was at, and how strong he was. She didn't know.

From this point of view, she actually knew nothing about the old man.

"Okay, old man, do you like it? I've been learning it for a long time." Looking at the old man's expression, Bai Zhi didn't say much, but continued to play tricks.

"I'm telling you, even if you don't like it, you still have to say that you like it. The tuition is expensive!" Before the old man could say anything, Bai Zhi added in a fierce tone.

"Well, it's just so-so. It's still a bit worse than Miss Yan." Seeing Bai Zhi's unpretentious appearance, the old man continued to bicker with Bai Zhi, without any trace of the sad look he had before.

"Old man, you're going too far! I'm obviously a better dancer than Miss Yan!" After hearing what the old man said, Bai Zhi immediately became unhappy and retorted loudly.

"Nonsense, you don't have Miss Yan who dances well." The old man didn't like Bai Zhi, so he exposed Bai Zhi very simply.

"Old man! I'm angry!"

"Then just be angry."

"Old man!!!"

———————————————————————————————————— (Seeing a dance is like seeing a beautiful woman. Once the dance is over, the beautiful woman disappears, leaving only the lingering sound. .)

Late at night, the old man sat on the bed and gently stroked the flute he had played during the day.

How many years have you not played this flute?

He couldn't remember clearly. He had never played the flute since she left him.

Today is the first time in so many years that it has been blown.

With a faint sigh, the old man looked at the flute, lost in thought for a long time.

.......

"Ale, look." The woman handed a long box to him like a treasure, with a gentle smile on her face.

"Feng'er, what is this?" He looked at the box in front of him in confusion, not understanding what was inside.

"Oh, you'll find out when you open it." The woman didn't answer him, but put the box in his hand.

"Okay, okay, let me take a look." He opened the long box following the woman's wishes and saw the well-made flute inside.

"Feng'er, what is this?" His surprised look fell into the woman's eyes, making her laugh happily.

"This is my gift to you. I broke the flute you had before, so I made one for you." At this point, the woman raised her head and looked at her with a fierce look. Looking at him.

"This is my first time doing this, you may not like it!"

"I do, of course I do." He looked at the woman in front of him, a smile covering his face.

"That's fine. From now on, when I dance with the sword, you can play the flute as the soundtrack for me. How about it?" After hearing his answer, the woman nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, of course, if Feng'er wants it, I have to show [-]% of my real skills."

"Then let's make an agreement. It's a deal."

......

The old man raised his head, looked at the roof and said slowly.

"One word, it's settled."

(Personal chapter 'Baizhi') Transcendence and Agreement

"Congratulations to Master Bai Zhi for being promoted to Demon Slayer. Master Bai Zhi has achieved such an achievement at such a young age. She is really young and promising." People around her looked at the extra golden thread on Bai Zhi's robe and spoke to Bai Zhi one after another. Congratulations.

As the protagonist of this matter, Bai Zhi looked absent-minded.

The old man didn't come...

Looking at the street outside the house, Bai Zhi smacked her lips, picked up her bag and squeezed through the crowd surrounding her.

"Lord Bai Zhi, where are you going?"

"Lord Bai Zhi, I have a carriage. Do you need me to give it to you?"

Ignoring these flattering voices, Bai Zhi walked towards her destination without looking back.

She's going back, these people are so annoying.

One person said the same thing, and it was so noisy.

Slowly walking out of the city, Bai Zhi quickly walked to the house rented by the old man outside the city.

She has now begun to accept some commissions for exorcism. She still remembers that she left half a month ago.

"Old man! I'm back!" When she opened the courtyard door, Bai Zhi smelled a strong smell of alcohol.

"Tsk." A black pound sign appeared above her head. Bai Zhi walked quickly to the old man's house and lifted her feet skillfully.

"Old man! How much wine did you drink?"

The old man sleeping happily in the house said: What the fuck?When did this stinky girl come back? !

.........

"Ahem, girl, it just looks like a lot, in fact there isn't much." The old man sat calmly on the bed, trying to excuse his behavior... Bah!explain.

However, Bai Zhi obviously didn't believe the old man's words.

"You tell me it doesn't have much?" Bai Zhi mentioned the pile of wine jars piled beside her, and looked at the old man with questioning eyes.

"Uh, this, I said it was for pickles, girl, do you believe it?" The old man touched his nose and tried to make a final struggle.

"What do you think?" Bai Zhi, who was already 13 years old, obviously didn't believe the old man's lies. She reached out and picked up the wine jar on the ground, put it under her nose and smelled it.

"Hmm... the sweet-scented osmanthus wine in Huaxiang Pavilion is quite expensive, I remember. The old man can do it, he is so rich." After confirming the type of wine, Bai Zhi looked at the old man with an unkind look in her eyes.

"Well, this is a gift from someone else..." The old man looked at Bai Zhi's very intimidating eyes and gradually became frightened.

Strangely enough, as Bai Zhi grew bigger, he became more and more afraid of Bai Zhi.

"That's what you said before I left." Bai Zhi put down the wine jar in her hand and stretched out her hand to the old man.

"Hand over it."

Looking at Bai Zhi's stretched out hand, the old man's eyes widened.

"No! This is my coffin book, old man!" The old man looked at Bai Zhi with a horrified look, as if to tell Bai Zhi's ruthlessness.

"Return the coffin book, why are you deceiving a three-year-old child? Your coffin book is for drinking. Hurry up and bring it." Bai Zhi is very familiar with the urine of her old man. Based on her understanding of the old man, she feels that he is hiding it. With his secretly hidden private money.

"I won't pay!"

"I can't help you!"

Ten minutes later, under the aggrieved eyes of the old man, Bai Zhi took out a bag of gold from the beam.

"..." Looking at the bag full of gold, Bai Zhi was silent.

Before she left, she deliberately put the old man's savings into a bank deposit, and specifically asked the bank manager to only withdraw a small portion of the money from the old man at a time.

The purpose is to prevent the old man from buying and drinking randomly.

She knew that the old man had very high requirements for wine, and he would not be able to drink wine that was too bad.

With limited money, he couldn't drink much.

She also thought that the old man would have private money, but she didn't expect that there would be so much.

It's possible that what she took away was only part of the old man's savings.

No, definitely only part of it.

Holding a cloth bag full of gold in her hand, Bai Zhi looked at the old man with a scrutinizing gaze.

When Bai Zhi looked at her like this, the old man looked away silently.

"Is there any more?"

"Gone."

......

Tsk, she doesn’t believe it.

Putting the gold on the square table aside, Bai Zhi sat on the chair and looked at the old man.

"The doctor said, you can't drink like this anymore." Looking at the old man, Bai Zhi said earnestly, trying to make the old man realize the seriousness of the matter.

"I told you that you can't believe what that bullshit doctor said..." The old man whispered, rubbing his belly, trying to refute Bai Zhi.

"Huh?" Bai Zhi stared at the old man, letting the old man swallow the second half of his sentence.

"Okay, okay, I understand." The old man nodded weakly, indicating that he remembered.
