"Master, Master!"

Gui Chuanyu held up a big fish he caught in his hand and shouted happily to Mandrill sitting aside: "I caught a big fish and cleaned it up. Master, can you grill the fish?"

"Won't."

Mandrill, who was sitting on a boulder not far away, had a look on his face and refused to let strangers approach him.

And added: "And I don't like fish."

"It's okay, Master. This big fish is delicious when grilled. Just wait for me."

Gui Chuanyu, who was rejected, was not depressed at all. He happily grabbed the big fish and came to Ruotuo.

"Garfield, come and light the fire."

Meow~

Ruotuo, in the form of a cat, raised his tail slightly, and the faint fire elements gathered to light the bonfire that had been set up before.

Seeing the flames igniting, Gui Chuanyu started to work excitedly.

He was in Grandma Ping's pot, playing with Yaoyao, Xiangling and the others every day.

As for eating, although I can't get the taste of Xiangling, I am still somewhat confident that I can bake it after being edified.

At least it’s okay if it’s cooked...probably!

Gui Chuanyu's eyes were shining with excitement, he put wooden sticks on the fish and started grilling it.

Mandrill, who had been sitting there quietly, looked at Gui Chuanyu who was busy with work, with some helplessness in his eyes.

After some brief turmoil, Mandrill and Gui Chuanyu finally got to know each other officially.

Although he had not yet become a master, after knowing that the other party would be his master in the future, Gui Chuanyu directly shouted "Master, Master".

Not afraid of life at all.

After being uncomfortable with it at first, Mandrill acquiesced.

After a day of getting along, he also had a preliminary understanding of Gui Chuanyu. The child was a good child, but sometimes his brain circuit was a little different from ordinary people.

Especially when he saw the God's Eye emitting fiery red light at his waist, Mandrill endured it again and again, but still couldn't restrain himself from asking.

"Since you have the Eye of God, why did you let...Garfield light a fire for you?"

"Because I'm not skilled?" Gui Chuanyu replied matter-of-factly, and added, "And my uncle said it's not safe for children to play with fire."

"Besides, isn't Garfield also very happy to do it? Just give it some fish to reward it later."

"Right Garfield?"

Meow~ (disgusted face)

This piece of fish is not enough for me to fill my teeth, and it is too little to try.

But Ruo Tuo has gotten used to it.

He moved two deft steps and came to sit next to Mandrill.

"Tomorrow we will set off to your family's ancestral home for the apprenticeship ceremony. Have you really decided to accept this apprentice?"

One person and one cat were communicating mentally. Ruo Tuo continued to ask, "I originally thought you wouldn't agree to this."

"Didn't you voluntarily sign a contract with Ouyang because of favors? It's just a apprenticeship, how can I refuse?" Mandrill replied.

I don’t know whether it was a venomous tongue or a sarcastic comment, but Mandrill’s answer was not polite at all.

Ruo Tuo swung his tail, did not choose to continue this topic, and asked instead.

"Before I have time to ask, are you the only one left among you Yashas?"

"...Maybe this is Yaksha's fate. There has been no news from the brothers and sisters for a long time."

After saying this, Mandrill looked into the distance.

Under the cold moonlight, the unobstructed plain of Guiliyuan seemed extremely quiet. He murmured: "It's not that there is no news. I heard that a few hundred years ago, during the turmoil in the Layer Rock Abyss, something happened.

A Yaksha."

"It's just that I'm not sure whether that person is the eldest brother."

"Do you want to go?" Ruo Tuo looked at Mandrill's expression and had some guesses.

"The Strata Abyss is now sealed, and it was sealed by Ouyang and Morax together. You can find an opportunity to ask him now."

This sudden news made Mandrill pause. He suddenly turned his head and asked, "Are you sure?"

"I don't know about this either. I was not present when the seal was made. You still have to ask yourself about the specific situation."

"good."

The activist Mandrill was about to go now, but in his eyes, black mist began to appear on the ground in the distance.

The remnants of the devil...

Mandrill understood what those were and his eyes became sharp.

"You look at the child, I'll deal with those troubles first."

After leaving these words, Mandrill walked away.

"Hey, Master..."

Seeing that the whole fish was almost ready, the master left.

Gui Chuanyu, who was sitting by the fire, felt a little disappointed.

He actually doesn't quite understand what a master is.

But he is quite satisfied with this "little master" who is like a big brother.

Because in his heart, he thought that the other party was a playmate that his uncle had found for him, and by the way, the other party would also teach him some skills.

This is Gui Chuanyu's true inner thoughts.

Therefore, seeing that Mandrill was always cold-faced and didn't know much, he wanted to get some good things to give to him.

The uncle once said that in Liyue, if you want to get closer to each other, you just need to invite the other person to dinner.

but…

The firelight shone on Gui Chuanyu's face, making his shadow on the ground extremely long.

The little face was flushed red by the flames, and the tightly wrinkled expression was obviously very tangled.

He pulled Ruotuo into his arms, rubbed his fur, and said distressedly: "What should I do, Garfield, does my master not like me?"

"I was thinking that giving him grilled fish tonight would help improve our relationship!"

"Why did you leave so suddenly?"

"Ahhhhhh, so annoying..."

He yelled randomly, and rubbed Ruo Tuo's fur vigorously with his hands, as if to vent his anger.

Of course Ruda would not answer his question.

Faced with such violent rubbing, he felt stable in his heart. It was impossible for a child to be strong enough to hurt him.

He squinted his eyes slightly and felt a little comfortable.

But Gui Chuanyu's next words made him unable to calm down.

"Garfield, do you think Master was playing hide-and-seek with me when he left suddenly like this?"

Why do you think so?

"Your eyes are wide open. Do you think what I said is right?"

Hey, hey, hey, don't cause trouble!

Ouyang! Your child is going to die!

Through the seal, Ruotu frantically sent a message to Ouyang in the distant military camp.

It's a pity that after Ouyang understood the whole story, he couldn't read it back.

Obviously, with Ruotuo here, Ouyang is not worried about anything happening to his child.

While Ruo Tuo was going crazy, the more Gui Chuanyu thought about it, the more he realized that he was right. He stood up happily.

An orange cat in one hand and grilled fish in the other.

He stood there and looked around, then chose a direction to pursue.

Ruotuo, who was held in his arms, closed his eyes resignedly.

Forget it, don’t argue with your children.

While accepting his fate, he controlled the energy and extinguished the bonfire in the distance.

Military camp, in the clear military tent.

Ouyang and Keqing stayed in the military tent for a day, mainly because Ouyang wanted to know what Keqing had gone through after so many days.
