Su Bai didn't ask the monk what he was busy with in Qinhuangdao. Previously, the monk had looked for Su Bai about this matter, but was rejected by Su Bai. Even though the monk had given him an exclusive spiritual massage yesterday, Su Bai still didn't plan to ask the monk what he was busy with and whether he needed help or not. This was because Su Bai knew that when there was no conflict of interest, the monk was still a good monk with a kind countenance. Once there was a conflict of interest, the monk would fall out with him. He was a typical example of a person who didn't even care about his own family.
Su Bai wasn't very interested in seafood. Recently, Qinhuangdao's tourism industry was flourishing. There were quite a lot of people, and some of the better restaurants had too many customers. Su Bai was too lazy to go there, so he made a bowl of noodles on the street. After eating, he planned to take the high-speed train back to Beijing or Tianjin, and then to Shanghai. After all, the little fellow was still in Shanghai. Although Ji Xiang was looking after and taking care of him, so Su Bai didn't need to worry too much, Su Bai didn't really spend much time with the little fellow after he came out from the story world. For Su Bai, who had really regarded the little fellow as his own son, he really experienced the torture of a parent missing their child.
In fact, Su Bai had already decided in his heart that if he had to continue living under this terrifying broadcast mode in the future, he did not intend to have a child. It was already good enough to have a little one. In case he died in the future, he believed that the little one could survive on its own. Otherwise, once he left behind a woman who gave birth to his child and his own flesh and blood, he would not be able to live on his own.
It would be … troublesome.
The little fellow's relationship with Su Bai was quite special. He was brought out from the story world by Su Bai. Su Bai hoped that the little fellow could live like a normal person in the future, even without him.
Perhaps, his own nature was still selfish, because he didn't want his own flesh and blood to become an orphan like himself after having a child.
However, there was one thing that needed to be done quickly. The little fellow had to have a name, register in the household register, and then apply for an adoption certificate. These were actually not difficult for Su Bai. In fact, in China, most of the local authorities were very convenient for those who had connections and influence. However, Su Bai felt that giving the little fellow a name and registering in the household register was more serious and solemn. He couldn't always call someone to do it, so it was better to do it himself. After all, there wasn't much he could do for the little fellow.
His cheap parents had left so easily, leaving him with more and more wealth. Unfortunately, it seemed that their son really didn't have the fortune to enjoy it for the rest of his life. Fortunately, he still had a cheap grandson.
The little fellow still had to be surnamed "Su".
To Su Bai's surprise, the noodle restaurant he found seemed to be well-decorated and followed the route of petty bourgeoisie, but the noodles were indeed a little unflattering. After eating two mouthfuls, Su Bai really couldn't eat anymore. He had to pay the bill and walked out. No matter what, since he had come all the way to this coastal city, he had to eat a solid meal.
It just so happened that behind the noodle restaurant, there was a vegetarian restaurant that looked like a temple. Su Bai walked in. The busy waiters were all young novice monks, and there was an oily middle-aged monk sitting in front of the cashier. He didn't know whether it was a special themed restaurant or a real property of the temple.
"Yo, almsgiver, which set meal would you like?" The monk was very enthusiastic when he saw Su Bai come in.
There were many set meals on the wall, all of which were vegetarian.
Su Bai ordered a set meal and sat down in an empty seat.
Although the monk at the cashier was a little more sophisticated, which was too different from the image of an eminent monk like Qilü, he had to say that the vegetarian food was very good. It was all vegetarian, but it was very tasty, which made Su Bai feel very satisfied. After all, he didn't come to the temple to burn incense, but to eat.
While eating, three more guests came outside. One was quite fat, the other two were very thin, and their faces didn't look very healthy. They should have been in a state of not distinguishing between day and night for a long time.
The three people came in and all ordered the cheapest vegetarian food. This kind of vegetarian food was the kind with large quantity and basically didn't make money. The monk at the cashier seemed very unhappy, but he still shouted for the kitchen to prepare.
The three people sat diagonally across from Su Bai.
After sitting down, the three people actually took out their fists and put them together. One of them took out his mobile phone with the other hand to take a picture, and at the same time, shouted in turn,
"Three to five bottles!"
"Two punches!"
"It's fate to fight more or less!"
They acted like a cult. Su Bai didn't pay much attention to them. Perhaps they were three middle-schoolers who came to have a meal and play games. When he was almost done eating, he drank a bowl of soup. Su Bai put the bowl and chopsticks away and got up to pay the bill.
A young acolyte came over with the bill. When he saw that Su Bai had finished the vegetarian food, he was pleasantly surprised. He put his palms together and said,
"Benefactor, cherish your good karma."
Su Bai also smiled. This was actually a rule of eating vegetarian food in the temple. There had to be no leftovers in the bowl or plate. If there was any spillage, it meant that you didn't want the karma you lost. A true monk was very particular about cherishing his good karma.
When he was a child, his mother believed in Buddhism and often took Su Bai to the temple to pray for blessings and eat vegetarian food. She was very particular about this. Of course, the commercialization of the temple at that time was not so serious. The monks were still very particular about this. Most temples were like vegetarian food stalls, regardless of how much the customers ate or how little was left.
The young acolyte couldn't help but be happy when he saw Su Bai eating so cleanly. In Su Bai's eyes, he was really innocent and cute. It was indeed a waste to leave such a child here to look after the restaurant. Unfortunately, he was not a monk, and the Qilü Monk was probably not interested in recruiting disciples.
After paying the bill, Su Bai walked out of the vegetarian restaurant and planned to take a taxi to the train station. However, Su Bai suddenly found that he was being followed.
It was a little interesting for three people to follow one person. Moreover, this tracking method was very low-level and crude. It was estimated that even a careful person could detect it, let alone a person like Su Bai.
Suddenly, there was a feeling of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Am I going to encounter another robbery today?
However, Su Bai still deliberately moved to the side of the road. He didn't want to look for trouble, and he was too lazy to deal with a few stupid thieves. Su Bai wasn't that bored.
A taxi stopped in front of Su Bai, and Su Bai got in the car.
After the car started, Su Bai saw that the three guys were still standing on the side of the road with a resentful look on their faces. Obviously, they felt that it was a pity that the fat sheep in their mouths had run away, but they also had some relief. Obviously, they had just gotten together and hadn't really started business yet. They still had an instinctive fear of this kind of business. It was just like the first time for young boys and girls. They always felt that after the first time was gone, they would no longer be the original self.
"Those three, their frontal bones are very open, and their pelvis is relatively narrow. At first glance, they look like they are leaking money. Moreover, their faces are dark and drawn in circles. I guess they will be imprisoned soon.
It should be a few gamblers who lost a lot of money and decided to take a risk. They are also blind to actually look for you. "
The taxi driver pressed the horn to urge the few electric cars in front of him to make way while he teased.
Su Bai took out his own cigarette and handed one to the driver in front. The driver also held a lighter in one hand and lit Su Bai's cigarette for him. The two exchanged it for a while. Soon, everyone had a lit cigarette in their mouth.
"Thanks." Su Bai said as he blew out a smoke ring.
"No need to thank me. In fact, I didn't expect you to come out alive. After Chen Yixin, the next traveler is you, right?" The driver held the steering wheel with one hand and held the cigarette with the other.
"It's me." Su Bai replied.
"Then your luck is quite good. Chen Yixin's votes were only one more than yours. It can be considered a mistake by those people. In the next round of voting, it should be you without a doubt, unless something big enough to change everyone's mind happens."
"Because of the reason for your death, in the scene after Chen Yixin's death, the rules of the story arranged for you to die once. So in the next round of voting, although I had the highest vote, the rules of the story determined that no one would die in this round, so I was lucky enough to survive."
"Hehe, that's really good luck." The driver stepped on the brakes and stopped at a traffic light. "I couldn't say too much back then. I could only say it vaguely. Otherwise, the rules of the story would change my voice and meaning. Actually, at the time, I didn't expect you to understand anything.
However, it was all thanks to you that I was able to complete the mission so easily. That woman, Chen Yixin, in the hotel or in other scenarios, if I wanted to kill her, it wouldn't have been easy. In the end, I didn't even know whether I would kill her or she would kill me. Luckily, you made her vote dead. At the time, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was supposed to be the enemy that she was prepared to face, but she died just like that. I guess she must have been very depressed. "
"You\'re very honest." He chuckled.
"An eye for an eye. You indirectly helped me, and I indirectly helped you. We don't owe each other anything, so when you arrive at the train station, you still have to pay according to the meter."
"Aren't the people of Qinhuangdao very hospitable?"
"No matter how hospitable he is, he still has to eat." "We're almost there. We'll be there after turning the corner. By the way, why did you decide to come to Qinhuangdao? You came here to travel the moment you left the story world? That's a good attitude. "
Su Bai leaned forward and patted the driver's shoulder. "You've been driving a taxi to feed your family since you left the story world. You seem to have a better attitude than I do, don't you think?"
Qin Yang sighed. "Life is not only about the radio in front of us but also the faraway fields."
