The sun and moon are both wrong: Starting with marrying Gongsun Ling

Chapter 57: Bai Xiaoxiao

"I understand the logic—"

"I can understand that you don't carry cash with you, boss, but asking me to exchange cigarettes for gold is going too far!"

Shi Guagua was completely disillusioned with her future.

How is she supposed to survive in this company where the boss can't cook and has no sense of life until he comes back?

Help, boss!

Don't leave me here, this is hell!

"This thing could have been exchanged for gold."

Lü Buyi was puzzled by Shi Guagua's overreaction; taking care of a child was truly troublesome.

"But how do I change it?"

Shi Guagua posed a crucial question: "And even if you exchange it for gold, you can't just spend it directly, right?"

"Plus, I'm so young, even if I took the gold and tried to exchange it for money—"

"Most people would just think I'm some Tang family member who secretly took things from home to sell and pass off as raw gems, right?"

Lu Buyi remained noncommittal, since Zhou Liuqing had never brought up this issue with him before.

The fact that Shi Guagua would ask such a question shows that she is indeed too useless.

"What a nuisance—" Lu Buyi scoffed indifferently.

"Irresponsible adults are so annoying!" Shi Guagua retorted loudly, not to be outdone.

After talking to him for a while, she was no longer so afraid of Lü Buyi, and she was also certain that Lü Buyi didn't mind this kind of offense.

Moreover, Shi Guagua felt that the boss had become so abstract that he no longer knew what heaven and earth were.

They lack a sense of time, a sense of life, and seem to have a little bit of a sense of money, but even that seems unlikely...

"I really don't know how the big boss survived all these three thousand years all by himself."

Shi Guagua couldn't help but complain.

"In fact, at my level, it's very difficult to die even if you want to."

Lü Buyi actually answered the question seriously:

"As long as the protective spell isn't removed, even if I run into the Earth's core or the sun's core, it'll just be a hot bath for me."

"Even most powerful beings cannot stay in space for long, so it is not a harsh environment for me."

"Do you know about that planet 635 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus, now called Kepler-22b, whose environment and climate are also suitable for human habitation?"

"I was bored for a while, so I went for a walk there, but unfortunately I didn't find any life there."

"Otherwise, I might just send the Corpse Immortal of Ten Thousand Industries there to achieve His final dream, without having to deal with these troubles on Earth."

Shi Guagua thought it was amazing, but right now the more important question is how she will survive:

"So, boss, do you, with your immense power, know how to take care of such delicate pebbles?"

Lü Buyi found it difficult to answer, just as Gao Haoguang had always aspired to be an agricultural science PhD but never managed to grow potatoes that wouldn't kill him.

Although he did want to have a child with his wife, he really didn't know how to take care of a child.

He spent almost all of his first hundred years as a seeker of the Dharma in the mountains.

Taking care of junior brothers and sisters, and even disciples and grand-disciples, at most means teaching them cultivation.

Even after the eleventh war of cause and effect, when he remained in the mortal world, he was still in the capacity of a founding vassal king of the Zhou Dynasty.

There are many things that he really doesn't need to handle or think about.

Needless to say, they later prepared backup plans for the final day.

How could he possibly have time to learn how to take care of a child?

"Boss, how soon can he come back to pick me up?"

Seeing that Lü Buyi could not give an answer, Shi Guagua, who was in despair, asked with her last bit of hope.

"It could take as little as three or four days, or as long as one or two weeks."

Lu Buyi's answer made Shi Guagua believe that her death was imminent.

Even a weak seeker of the Dharma like her would feel hungry if she missed a meal!

Not to mention three or four days, or even one or two weeks.

"Boss, can I run away from home and go begging?"

"At least passersby would feel pity for a cute little girl like me, and I wouldn't starve to death on the streets."

Shi Guagua earnestly offered her advice to Lü Buyi.

"Don't worry about not surviving here—"

"Although I don't know how to take care of you, I can find someone to take care of you."

Lü Buyi found Shi Guagua's despair utterly baffling.

What's wrong with this kid's brain?

Do you think I, a titled Great Powerful Being, would let you starve to death?

Well?

Upon hearing this, Shi Guagua breathed a sigh of relief. Recalling what Lü Buyi had said earlier, she cautiously asked:

"Is the person you're talking about your wife?"

"I overheard you talking to the boss before, and you mentioned it more than once—"

"No, my wife passed away a long time ago."

"She's my only female disciple, and she's very good at taking care of ten-year-old children like you."

Lu Buyi said this, and not only that, Bai Xiaoxiao should also like children very much.

After all, if it weren't for her insistence...

So back in Heishan Village, when I made Gao Haoguang solve the trolley problem, maybe those children were included too.

His wife had already passed away...

Shi Guagua wanted to apologize, since she had asked something she shouldn't have, but seeing Lü Buyi's calm expression, she hesitated.

She didn't say anything, just nodded, hoping that the disciple the boss was talking about was really as reliable as he said.

"Coo coo~"

Just then, Shi Guagua, who hadn't eaten dinner yet, felt a rumbling in her stomach, a sign of hunger.

So she looked at Lü Buyi with a pitiful expression.

"Boss, could you take me to see that lady you mentioned right now?"

"Otherwise, I'll starve to the point of my liver and intestines breaking—"

Lü Buyi did not refuse, since he had originally planned to send the person to Bai Xiaoxiao anyway.

"Let's go then."

"I remember she still kept the habits she had when she was alive; she would probably be making dinner at this time."

As Lü Buyi spoke, he lifted Shi Guagua by the collar, just like Baili Yuan had done.

Ignoring her shouts, in the blink of an eye, Lü Buyi's figure disappeared with her from the Three True Ancestral Land.

Then, it gently landed in front of Bai Xiaoxiao's house, which also lived a peaceful life in Sanchuan City.

.

In the blink of an eye, after eliminating that thousand-year-old hatred, he was resurrected as a Dharma corpse by his master's Ten Thousand Karmic True Blood.

It's been almost a century since then.

Many times, Bai Xiaoxiao, who lives a peaceful modern life, feels that what she once experienced was a dream.

Myriad Corpse Immortals, the World of Supernatural Powers, the Three True Dharma Gates... Anyone would think those bizarre past events were just a dream.

But regardless of the cultivation level of the current high-ranking supernatural being, or the blood-red pupil on his forehead that he can still freely control, which comes from the three eyes.

These things constantly reminded Bai Xiaoxiao.

It was all true—

"Is it because we've had too many peaceful days, or because the world outside the mountains has become increasingly developed?"

"It's not good to be so lax, Bai Xiaoxiao."

"One day, you will have to fight him to the death again..."

Bai Xiaoxiao, who had long since grown up and was making dinner, gave a slight bitter smile and murmured softly.

Then, a doorbell rang, interrupting her thoughts.

The only people who usually come looking for her are Brother Zhao and Sister Shangguan.

Do they need my help?

"Here it comes—"

With this question in mind, Bai Xiaoxiao responded softly and then walked towards the door.
