Chapter 241 Brother
Chapter 241 Brother
The peaches that Bach brought were exceptionally delicious and received unanimous praise.
This made the four-legged creatures puzzled. They usually ate plenty of peaches, but none of them could compare to the peaches Bach brought this time.
"By the way, Bach, where did you buy these peaches? They taste so delicious! I'll buy some next time."
The strange-looking peach surprised Bach: "Fourth boss, didn't I say that this peach is a peach from the Peach Garden that has been around for three thousand years? It's a gift that the Sky-Piercing Peach asked me to bring to you."
"Pfft!! What?! Bach, you're saying these are peaches from the Heavenly Peach Garden?!"
When the Qilin heard that they were eating peaches of immortality, it was greatly alarmed and spat out the peach in its mouth, which unfortunately landed on Tianlu's face.
“You four-legged creature…” Tianlu angrily wiped the peach off his face, then pounced on the four-legged creature and sat on it: “Hmph, four-legged creature, apologize to me.”
"Pippi, stop fooling around." The Qilin was frightened by Bach's words. If they were discovered by the Heavenly Court, they would all be finished. They had no intention of paying attention to Tianlu.
Seeing that the Four-Faced Beast seemed to have something important to do, Tianlu decided to temporarily let bygones be bygones and not bother with the incident of spraying water in its face.
After getting off the Qilin, Tianlu sat back down in his chair and continued eating the peaches on the table. Looking at the anxious Qilin, Tianlu said with some disdain, "Qilin, it's just a peach from heaven, is there any need to make such a fuss?"
"What do you know? If those stingy gods in Heaven knew we stole peaches from the Heavenly Court, they would probably send troops to arrest us."
The evil spirit, who was quietly eating peaches, became extremely agitated when it heard the four-legged creature mention the Heavenly Court. Its eyes were filled with murderous intent: "What are you afraid of? If the Heavenly Court dares to come, we'll kill them all. Are you really afraid of them?"
Seeing the fearless attitude of the brothers Bixie and Tianlu, the Four-Faced Beast felt exhausted and as if the sky had fallen. The delicious peaches on the table now tasted bland to it.
Seeing that the four-legged creature looked uneasy, Rabbit Lord took its paw and comforted it, "It's alright, four-legged creature. There are so many peaches in the Peach Garden, no one will notice if a few are missing."
"I hope so!" The Qilin felt that it should never have descended to the mortal realm in the first place, otherwise it wouldn't have gotten into so much trouble.
Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, the four-legged creature hardened its heart and prepared to destroy the peaches on the table to cover up the crime.
Meanwhile, Balingjun was also observing Bach. He never expected that his originally somewhat timid dog egg would become so bold after transforming into a dragon that he would even dare to steal something like peaches of immortality.
Bach noticed Balingjun's gaze and wondered why the little white snake was staring at him. Did he have something on his face?
Bach touched his face and found it was quite clean, without any residue. This confused Bach, who couldn't understand why the little white snake was looking at him.
Balingjun, who witnessed Bach's foolish antics firsthand, chuckled and thought to himself that although Gou Dan had lost his memory, he was still his silly disciple.
But then, Balingjun noticed that the atmosphere around him had suddenly become quiet. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the Qilin and the others were all looking at him.
This made Balingjun a little embarrassed, and he flicked his tail: "Um...you guys continue eating, don't worry about me."
Bach used a toothpick to pick up a piece of peach and handed it to Balingjun: "Little white snake, seeing how thin you are, here's a piece of peach for you."
"???"
Seeing Balingjun's puzzled look, Bach thought the other party didn't know the effects of peaches, so he quickly explained: "Little white snake, don't underestimate these peaches. It is said that they can absorb the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Court, and eating them can help you become an immortal."
Baling Jun was speechless. Was that what he cared about? What he cared about was that his foolish disciple had just called him "Little White Snake," which was truly ungrateful. It seemed necessary to find some time to teach Gou Dan what respect for his teacher meant.
In contrast, Bach, completely unaware of the situation, was still talking animatedly about the various benefits of the peaches, making Meimei, who was standing to the side, regret her actions.
Just then, Bixie's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to shush, "Don't speak, someone's coming."
Seeing Bixie's nervous look, the Four-Legged Beast swallowed hard and said, "Brother Pipi, I run a shop. It's normal for people to come and buy things. Don't be nervous."
The words of the four unlikes made Bixie realize that he had been too nervous and no longer needed to hide and avoid people like before.
"I'll go see who's here! Maybe it's a big client."
As the Four-Unlikes was about to get up and go out to take a look, Rabbit Lord stopped him: "The Four-Unlikes doesn't need to go, Hao Chen is back."
Following Rabbit Lord's gaze, the four-legged creatures saw two figures enter through the door, one in front and one behind.
Hao Chen walked ahead with a limp, followed by a "Hao Chen" whose fur was soaking wet.
"Wait, why are there two Haochens?" Tianlu rubbed his eyes, suspecting that there was something wrong with his eyes again.
However, Bixie shook his head and said, "Tianlu, look carefully. The one in front is Haochen, and the one behind is not. He just looks like Haochen."
With Bixie's reminder, Tianlu and Sibuxiang also noticed Haochen walking behind them. The pattern on his leg was a black square, and he also had a gold earring hanging from his left ear.
"That's strange. This one looks so much like Hao Chen and Pi Pi. Could he also be a Pixiu? But are there really that many Pixiu in the world?"
For a time, the four unlikes had a whole host of questions in their minds because of the arrival of Seventy-Seven.
Tianlu jumped off the chair, ran to Haochen, and pointed to Seventy-Seven behind him: "Haochen, who is he? Is he also a Pixiu?"
Seventy-seven looked Tianlu up and down, wondering if this was the Pixiu friend that Maolong had mentioned.
Then Seventy-Seven looked at the Bixie sitting in the chair: "Strange, why doesn't the Cat Dragon have as many Pixiu as there are in the mortal world?"
Meanwhile, Bixie was also observing Seventy-Seven, feeling equally puzzled. If Haochen came from another world, that would be one thing, but what about this Pixiu in front of him?
There have always been only two Pixiu in the world, him and Tianlu. If there were a third Pixiu, they should have known about it long ago.
Leaving aside Bixie and Tianlu, even the Qilin looked at Haochen and Qishiqi with surprise. He didn't expect that Haochen would go out and bring back a Pixiu from somewhere.
"Ahem, let me introduce you all. This is my younger brother, Qiqi," Haochen said, pulling Qiqi over.
Seventy-Seven rolled his eyes and said defiantly, "I'm not your brother, and my name is Seventy-Seven, not Seven Seven."
However, Hao Chen didn't care about any of that. He pulled Seventy-Seven towards the table and said, "Hey, what are you eating? Give me some!"
Seeing Haochen limping over, the Sibun quickly got up and carried Haochen to a chair: "Haochen, what's wrong with your leg?"
Hao Chen glanced at Seventy-Seven indifferently, then said, "It's nothing, the ground was slippery, I just slipped and fell."
Both the Four-Unlikes and the Rabbit Lord could tell that Hao Chen's leg injury wasn't caused by a fall, but since Hao Chen didn't want to talk about it, they didn't intend to ask any further.
However, Tianlu was an exception. He jumped next to Haochen and squeezed into a chair with him: "Haochen, did you also hurt your eye?"
As Tianlu spoke, he gestured with his claws around Haochen's slightly swollen eye sockets: "It looks like I was hit. Look, it's about the same size as my claw mark."
"..." Hao Chen slapped Tian Lu's hand away, thinking to himself how he had never noticed before that Tian Lu had such a sharp tongue.
As for his eyes and legs, they were injured by Seventy-Seven.
When he brought Seventy-Seven back from Mi Tang's place, he felt that Seventy-Seven's scent was very familiar to him, so he couldn't help but smell Seventy-Seven and lick it to taste it.
But unexpectedly, Seventy-Seven woke up at this moment and mistakenly thought that Hao Chen was plotting against him. So he threw two big punches at Hao Chen and bit Hao Chen's leg.
Caught off guard, Hao Chen didn't even have time to dodge.
After the fight, Seventy-Seven realized he had misunderstood and quickly apologized. Seventy-Seven's politeness left Hao Chen with no reason to retaliate, forcing him to accept the loss.
However, Hao Chen was not one to suffer a loss. Since he couldn't fight back, he didn't care whether Qi Shiqi was willing or not, and simply brought him back as his younger brother.
After some explanation, Bixie and Tianlu accepted Qishiqi, since they were both Pixiu and would naturally feel a connection with each other.
However, Seventy-Seven did not say that he came from the Heavenly Court, but only that he came from outside the Rainbow Cloud Mountains because he heard that there were also Pixiu here.
Tianlu excitedly jumped to Qiqi's side and patted him on the shoulder: "Qiqi..."
"It's Seventy-Seven, my name is Seventy-Seven." Seventy-Seven helplessly corrected Tianlu's mistake.
"It's all the same!" But Tianlu seemed not to be listening and continued, "Since you are Haochen's younger brother, Qiqi, then from now on you will be Bixie and my younger brother, and we will protect you."
Like Hao Chen, Tian Lu decided to take Qi Shiqi as his younger brother regardless of whether Qi Shiqi was willing or not.
Tianlu pulled Qiqi to the table, picked up a piece of peach with a fork, and handed it to Qiqi: "Little brother Qiqi, here's a peach for you."
Seventy-seven looked at the peaches that Tianlu handed over and thought to himself, "Aren't these the Heavenly Peaches? How come we can buy Heavenly Peaches in the mortal world?"
But in order not to reveal that he came from the Heavenly Court, Seventy-Seven took the peach from Tianlu and ate it, pretending that it was delicious: "Hmm, this peach is sweet but not greasy, the flesh is soft and juicy, it's really delicious."
"Right, right? I also think these peaches are delicious."
For a moment, the Deer Man Shop was filled with joyful laughter, and the Qilin temporarily forgot that they were eating peaches stolen by Bach.
During their subsequent conversation, Hao Chen learned that Bach had come down from the sky, which greatly surprised him, as the comic hadn't reached the point where Bach transformed into a dragon before he transmigrated.
"Not bad, it looks majestic. Let me touch it, I've never touched a dragon before." Hao Chen touched Bach's dragon scales and claws with great familiarity.
