Swordsman Returns from Another World

Tallulah drank the wine in one gulp, her face looking a little strange, as if she had not expected the wine to be so strong. However, she suppressed the urge to cough and put down the glass gracefully.

Nian finished the wine in the glass, took a deep breath, picked up a piece of tripe from the hot pot, and stuffed it directly into his mouth without paying attention to the red oil on it.

She stuffed the hot and spicy tripe into her mouth, but she seemed to have no reaction. She chewed it and shook her head with some regret: "Sure enough, the spicy food here is not tasty enough."

After swallowing the tripe in her mouth, she looked at Baiyou again and said, "Hey, Baiyou, the way you looked at me at first was very interesting. What, do you know about me?"

Baiyou nodded: "I think I know a little bit, so I'm wondering why you came to me."

"Hmm...this is really interesting. I thought no one remembered me." Nian seemed a little happy: "Oh my, being remembered by others is really a wonderful thing. This is good, this is good."

"I came to see you, do I need to ask? Of course it's because you're funny!" Nian laughed and pointed at Baiyou with his chopsticks: "You make such a big noise, but it makes me very happy!"

"As for me, I know a lot about audiovisual entertainment. If you ask me, you have a pretty face, and everyone likes you. I want to invite you to make a movie!"

Damn, he’s a senior director, right?

Bai You sighed helplessly, "Just because of this? I can make a movie, but can you let me read the script first? I won't participate in a script that's too ridiculous."

Nian smiled proudly: "Don't worry, who in the industry doesn't know my reputation? I am the one who is known as the genius."

"Besides, life still needs some changes. Besides wanting to get to know you, I also want to see something I haven't seen before." Her eyes fell on the white-glazed red dragon bracelet: "That is not the ability of the Originium technique, but it can't be hidden from my eyes."

"And your body, your thoughts, and the words you said...Baiyou, you are very interesting to me." Nian did not hide his curiosity about Baiyou and laughed.

Nian's words were blunt, and her words did not conceal her desire to explore the secret of white glaze. She made it clear why she came here: she came for the white glaze.

"I have been running non-stop to find you. I originally planned to walk slowly to Longmen. By the time I get there, it will be Chinese New Year. Oh, I mean next year's Chinese New Year."

"But when your incident broke out a few days ago, I rushed over here. Today, I just landed and wanted to find a place to have a good meal. Ha, I ended up running into you."

Nian seemed quite happy, and stuck out his tongue while grinning evilly: "Look, how destined we are to be together?"

She raised her hand and placed the small wine pot in front of Baiyue: "Come on, drink more with me tonight!"

"I don't drink often, I just drink with my family, Baiyou, don't refuse."

Tallulah seemed to see that Baiyou valued Nian very much. Although she was a little resistant to Nian in her heart, she still took the wine jug and filled it for herself, saying, "I said, he is still young, I will drink for him."

"Hmm... You are also a person of temperament, unlike that black snake. Good, really good!" Nian did not hesitate to praise Tallulah, pointing at her and praising her, then raised his glass: "Come on, one drink!"

Tallulah groaned, raised her glass, and drank it all.

Nian had a generous personality, and even though Tallulah was unhappy with her at first, after drinking a few glasses, she recognized Nian's kindness, and the two of them communicated easily.

Tallulah was a person who rarely talked nonsense except about the topic of infected people, and Nian was also straightforward. The two of them drank one glass after another.

Both of their powers are related to heat. Now that they are sitting at the same table, they can chat happily. The most important thing is... they can talk about white glaze.

After three rounds of drinking, Tallulah's cheeks turned slightly red. She patted Baiyou's thigh and said to Nian, "You better stay away from him! Baiyou... is very bad!"

Chapter 134: Going to the Hotel

Nian didn't seem drunk. He laughed when he heard that: "Bad? I can't tell. How can you tell?"

"He likes it very much..." Tallulah was about to say that Baiyou likes to touch her legs, but then she changed her mind and decided that it wouldn't work. If she said that, with Nian's open-minded personality, she might say something like asking Baiyou to touch her and make comparisons.

After choking for a long time, Tallulah continued, "I like to act like a spoiled child, just like a little kid."

"He always says things that make you feel uncomfortable. If you have seen what he said on the top of the tower, you will definitely understand that this guy likes to talk nonsense. He likes to say those things... which are obviously fine if you don't say them out loud."

Baiyou muttered softly: "That's called a sense of ritual, a sense of ritual..."

Nian nodded in agreement: "The sense of ritual is very important. The reason why rituals continue to be passed down is not because of their own significance, but because of the significance they bring to everyone."

"What Baiyou said on the top of the tower is just like a righteous man judging a sinner. The sinner's crimes must be made public. This is considered a good performance."

“Just like I like making movies and putting on shows.”

"That's why I came to Baiyou. The performance is rewarding and I hope it will pay off. This is the type of story I like, so why not?"

Nian smiled and looked at Baiyou with admiration in his eyes: "I can't remember how long it has been since I was so excited and rushed to see someone. Baiyou, after meeting you tonight, I was really not disappointed."

Bai You was a shameless man, a model of taking advantage of the situation. When he heard Nian's evaluation of him, he lowered his head, raised his eyes, rubbed his hands together, and looked at Nian with some expectation.

"...Is Rhodes Island recruiting?"

Tallulah suddenly woke up from her drunkenness and looked at Baiyou with sharp eyes.

His eyes seemed to say: Are you going to hook up now?

I'm still here, what are you doing?

She reached her hand under the table and pinched Baiyue's thigh.

Bai You remained calm and continued, "The living conditions in Rhodes Island are good, with free food and accommodation, as well as a variety of entertainment options. I think the operators in the Engineering Department who like metallurgy and forging will definitely suit your taste. What do you think? Consider it?"

“Hey…” Nian stared at him with a wicked smile: “Are you thinking of recruiting me? It’s not impossible. You are such a suitable person for me. It would be nice to hang out with a group of people for a while after a long time.”

"But you have a lot of enemies, right? Ursus, Black Snake... and those guys who can't bear to see the infected get better. If you take me with you, there might be new troubles, right?"

"It's okay, it's just a small matter." Baiyou smiled.

Nian slapped the table, pointed at Baiyou and laughed, "Great, great! I like your personality. It's rare to find someone who is so loyal to his own desires, not to mention a good person."

Baiyou is a good man who is loyal to his desires. Indeed, he is such a person. It is better to say that most of the players he represents are such people.

Except for the war criminals of Paradox, they were dragged out and executed.

"Food and lodging are provided, and there is also entertainment. I am not an unworldly person. This job is really good." Nian ate the hot pot with a smile: "Of course, the most important thing is you, Baiyou. I am very interested in you. You have to satisfy my thirst for knowledge."

"Since you know who I am, you should understand how important unknown things are to us."

Hearing this, Tallulah seemed to realize that Nian's identity was not ordinary. She stopped pinching Baiyou's leg and instead patted the place where she had just pinched.

As a former noble of Ursus, she had also learned about the things about gods from Koschei. Apart from Dayan, which called gods "giants", there were many other countries in the world that still maintained their belief in gods.

Therefore, Tallulah quickly guessed the most likely identity of the person in front of her.

Baiyue... Want to bring such a person to Rhodes Island? What is he thinking?

Will Dayan agree?

After guessing Nian's identity, Tallulah's interest declined. Although she still drank with Nian, she was more cautious.

In the end, after confirming with Nian that she would report to Rhodes Island the next day, Baiyou and Tallulah left the hot pot restaurant. Instead of rushing to ride back, they strolled slowly on the street.

"Why invite her? Who is she?" Tallulah asked, holding Baiyou's hand.

Baiyue said softly, "It's a giant beast, or you can call it a god, but it's just a fragment."

"One of the twelve fragments of the giant beast Sui, named Nian."

Her guess was confirmed, but Tallulah was not happy. With a slightly drunken blush on her face, she whispered, "Isn't this dangerous? What are you thinking about letting a guy like this into Rhodes Island?"

"She won't become Rhodes Island's enemy, because after all, she is also seeking help." Baiyue let out a long sigh: "Sister Tallulah, you know, there are too many people in this world who are eager to get help."

"Those who are trapped in the quagmire of politics, those who are bound by their families, those who are burdened with the past and don't know where to go next... Even if they are fragments of gods, they will face disasters and ask themselves in the middle of the night... what should they do next."

Baiyue sighed.

"This world needs someone who can break the deadlock, stir up all situations, and randomly knead the already chaotic noise on the earth, so that all sounds can be tempered into a brand new shape."

"Only in this way can we say that the situation has been resolved, Sister Tallulah. This world lacks a nosy person who wants to get involved in everything, no matter if it's a well-known event or a secret that's being carried out in secret. Only by kicking them all out can the situation be completely resolved."

"That person is me, Tallulah."

Baiyou suddenly stopped.

He raised his head and looked at Tallulah.

The look was clear and firm, just like when Tallulah first saw him.

Staring into those eyes made Tallulah feel intoxicated and at ease.

"You seem to have drunk a lot, do you want to take a break?" Baiyou raised a hand and pointed at the sign above their heads.

Tallulah looked up in confusion, curious about what the neon sign above her head was.

...It was a huge pink sign with the word "Hotel" written on it. The two words were spelled out in neon lights, shining with colorful light.

...Damn, I’m sober now.

Tallulah, who was still immersed in Baiyou's words and eyes, suddenly clenched her teeth.

She raised her hand angrily and slapped Baiyou's head from top to bottom.

"Hey, stop hitting me, stop hitting me, or I won't grow any taller!"

"Will you not grow taller? Will you not grow taller?!" Tallulah slapped him angrily. She no longer had that reserved nobility, only the straightforwardness and cuteness of a young girl.

Chapter 135: Why don’t you take a shower?

Ten minutes later, Baiyou pulled the angry Tallulah into the first floor of the hotel.

"There is only one room left. Pay if you want to stay there." Zarak, the middle-aged woman who was watching over the store, raised her eyes, took a look, then lowered her head and said.

At the same time, he muttered in his heart, wow, the combination of an older sister and a little boy is quite rare.

Although Baiyou is no longer the little kid she was back then, she is about the same height as Amiya. Compared to Tallulah's nearly 1.80-meter-tall figure, she looks very small.

"Okay, one room, a king-size bed room or a standard room?" Bai You asked with a smile.

"...top-floor luxury suite, king-size bed." The boss secretly gave Baiyou a thumbs up. She really didn't expect that it was this young man who took the initiative.

Tallulah turned her head and frowned, "Can't we go somewhere else? Why are we squeezing into the only room here?"

"Besides, if we stay out overnight...what will we do tomorrow?"

Bai You turned around and said, "I am in the period of growing up now, it is not good to stay up late."

"...You're nothing! Why haven't you moved on from this topic?" Talulah gritted her teeth.

Bai Glaze sticks out his tongue.

The boss handed Baiyou a bunch of keys and said, "26th floor, go ahead."

Baiyou played with the keys and waved, "Let's go, let's go to sleep."

Tallulah paused, but followed closely.

Baiyou chuckled and reached back.

Tallulah held his hand somewhat shamefully.

Tonight, Tallulah held Baiyue's hand for the third time.

The two entered a somewhat old elevator. The lights in the elevator were dim, and it made noises as it slowly went up, making people afraid that they would suddenly fall down.

"This old building in Longmen is very impressive." Baiyou looked at the elevator happily: "It reminds me of the chase on the rooftop, jumping off the air conditioner from the top of the building layer by layer, like in Longmen movies."

“…I haven’t seen anything like that.” Tallulah said.

"Then do you want to watch it tonight?" Bai You said happily, "This hotel should have a TV. We can look for a channel that shows movies at midnight."

Tallulah's mind was filled with the word "big bed" that her boss had just mentioned. Her pretty face turned slightly red. She couldn't figure out what was wrong with her and why she had agreed to spend the night outside.

Therefore, there was no response.

They soon arrived at the 26th floor. They walked out of the elevator, walked on the old carpet, found their room, opened the door and went in.

The room is not small, although a bit old, but the atmosphere is good, with an elegant and simple Yan country style.

However, when she saw the big bed, Tallulah was a little stunned.

It was a large solid wood bed with a wooden headboard carved with dragon and phoenix patterns. Even the quilt was embroidered with lotus pods on a red background with gold threads.

Have more children, right?

What is this Yan Country's old bridal chamber? This is an antique, right?!

Tallulah took a deep breath, turned around and wanted to leave.

Bai You suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her back: "Sister Tallulah, why are you hiding? Come back, come back!"

"I want to go back to Rhodes Island. I am a prisoner of Rhodes Island! I can't find a hotel with you in Lungmen to spend the night. Do you understand? I am... I am a criminal!" Talulah faced the door without turning her head.

"...Then consider it as accompanying me?"

"This is not a question of whether I should accompany you or not!" Tallulah wanted to leave but couldn't take a step.

Just when she was struggling, Bai You suddenly let go of her hand and walked towards the bathroom.

"...Anyway, I'm going to take a shower first. Sister Tallulah, if you want to leave, go back by yourself. I'll sleep alone tonight."
