What does it mean to confess without being asked? What does it mean to reap what you sow?
Stone grinned maliciously at Baozi and said, "Baozi, my dear Baozi, where have my memories gone?"
Since Baozi has returned Kagaral's memories to Huoqian, Baozi should also have a copy of Irene's memories.
Baozi was dumbfounded. He glanced at the grinning stone and then at the sour-faced fire tongs. After hesitating for a long time, he stammered, "Hehe, Master didn't let Baozi keep my memories! Baozi is a very honest and kind Baozi. Baozi would never lie to Master!"
Honesty? Kindness?
Stone felt a little dizzy. Um, do these words have anything to do with steamed buns? Do they?
“Little Baozi, Stone has forgotten those memories, but I remember that you seem to have never been honest.” Huoqian said sternly, bluntly exposing Baozi’s words.
"Gaga, Kagaral, how could you slander Baozi like that! Master, this is blatant slander, blatant slander!"
Baozi immediately twisted her body and screamed unwillingly. While screaming, she tried to pounce into Shitou's arms, but was grabbed by Huoqian.
“Stone, I suddenly remembered something.” Huoqian had been learning forging from Steel Hammer Dad since he was a child, and in his previous life he was a very powerful Qi Master. He didn’t take Baozi’s little skills seriously at all.
"What's up?"
“I remember you used to not let Baozi near you because you told me that Baozi was a little pervert who loved to take advantage of little girls.” Huoqian pinched Baozi, who was trying to escape, with one hand, and picked up a small twig from the ground with the other, poking Baozi hard through his fingers.
Stone's face darkened. How come she didn't know?!
Oh right, now that I think about it, Baozi did do something like that. Hmph, trying to take advantage of me?
"Baozi, is there anything you want to say?"
Baozi was being held tightly by the fire tongs, making her feel uncomfortable all over. She was also being shoved by the twig in the tongs' hands, and suddenly felt an urge to burst into tears: "Gaga! Master! Baozi has been bullied by Kagaral! Waaaa, I can't live like this anymore!"
"If you haven't posted it, don't bother!" Stone was furious. How could she have let this damn guy take advantage of her for so many years?! This is truly...
With a wicked grin, Huotong poked at the folds of what Baozi called his chrysanthemum: "I told you to give me your memories! Humph, I'd rather not have those memories at all, at least then I wouldn't have almost driven myself insane!"
"Gah! It was Master who told Baozi to give you his memories! Waaah, it's all Master's fault, Baozi is an honest and kind good Baozi!"
"You still dare to talk! You still dare to talk! Humph, honest and kind? Baozi, do you think you're associated with words like that? I think you're just shameless and despicable!"
"Gah! You're the shameless and lewd one! Don't touch Baozi's chrysanthemum! Waaah, poor Baozi's chrysanthemum!"
Stone rolled his eyes, ignoring the two idiots who were acting foolishly at the same time, and slowly got out of bed while covering his head.
"Oh! You're awake?"
On the floor beside the bed, Luo Pipi, who had been keeping her eyes closed, was now looking in your direction with a frightened expression.
Chapter 205: Fang Wulian in Another World
Stone and Luo Pipi stared at each other, of course Stone would never admit that Luo Pipi's eyes were actually bigger than hers: "Hey, are you still alive?"
Luo Pipi didn't say anything, but just stared at the fire tongs in disbelief.
Stone looked back and finally remembered that Huoqian was a dwarf, and dwarves had disappeared from the human kingdom a long time ago: "Seventh Brother, uh, no, dear Kagaral?"
Huoqian turned around and glared fiercely at Shitou: "Call me Huoqian, or Seventh Brother, whatever you like!"
"Why? Your name is Kagaral!" Stone looked at Fire Pliers innocently. She felt her situation was similar to Fire Pliers'. If possible, she would rather be called by her past life's name. Um, what was her name in her past life again?
Lost in deep thought, Stone didn't notice that Luo Pipi's eyes weren't fixed on the fire tongs at all, but on the big steamed bun in the fire tongs' hand.
"Bang!"
A loud bang finally brought Stone's attention back to reality. To her great surprise, she discovered that Luo Pipi, who had just woken up, had rolled his eyes and fainted again.
"Huh? Are dwarves scary? That's strange. Dwarves aren't dragons, what's so scary about them?" Stone frowned, squatted down, and looked at Luo Pipi with considerable confusion.
"You brat! Who are you calling a dwarf? Who's short?"
Little did he know, before Stone could figure out if Luo Pipi was alright, he was so startled by Huoqian's roar that he fell to the ground with a thud.
"What's wrong with you?" Stone looked at Huoqian blankly. Could there be mentally ill people in other worlds too?
"Tell me, what did you just say?" Huo Qian's eyes were gleaming red. He looked exactly like a rabid patient.
Shi Tou quickly moved back, but she didn't realize that this brought her even closer to Luo Pi Pi. They were practically touching.
"Fire Pliers, what's wrong with you? Didn't you tell me to call you Fire Pliers?"
"I told you to call me Fire Tongs, you didn't give me permission to call me Dwarf!"
Stone looked up at the ceiling, feeling depressed. To her surprise, she discovered that the house she was in had no ceiling at all; it looked like a large hole above her. Upon closer inspection, well, it wasn't a hole, it was a tree hollow.
Is she currently inside a tree hollow?
"Say something! What's wrong? You feel guilty too?" Huoqian grew impatient when he saw that Shitou remained silent for a long time.
Stone was still in a daze when she finally remembered where she was. Wasn't this the tree hollow where she had temporarily stayed when she was driven out of the dwarf kingdom? She couldn't believe that after all this time, it was still exactly the same.
"Gaga, Kagaralwa! What happened to you? Where has your nobility, your elegance, your grace, your talent... (a thousand words omitted) gone?"
Just as Shi Tou figured out where he was, he heard Bao Zi's incessant chatter and was immediately dumbfounded.
Um, were those adjectives Baozi just used to describe fire tongs?
Perhaps Baozi's words reminded Huoqian of those unbearable past events. Or perhaps the suspicion on Shitou's face was simply too obvious. Huoqian glared at the two of them angrily and roared, "Shut up!"
Baozi shut up, but Shitou spoke up: "Huoqian, what Baozi just said was all true?"
Huoqian was so angry that his face turned red: "No, of course not! This damn bun never tells the truth!"
"Oh!" Stone was relieved. "I knew it. How could you be associated with nobility and elegance? What about manners and talent? Hehe, how could that be..."
Before Shi Tou could finish speaking, she felt Huo Qian's chilling gaze and instantly shut up.
"You two!" Huoqian was so angry that he trembled all over. He threw the bun in his hand at Shitou and turned to leave.
Stone hurriedly took the bun: "Fire tongs, why are you angry? Seventh Brother, don't go! Kagarar, you stop right there!"
As it turns out, no matter the world, the majority of people are still the kind of people who deserve a beating.
Although Huoqian was still angry after being yelled at by Shitou, he obediently returned. Of course, he didn't look too good. After returning, he just sat to the side, head down, seemingly lost in thought.
"Gaga, Kagaral, you're still as afraid of your master as ever! Wahahaha, Baozi knew it, you're not as cute as Secamoro!" Baozi was very happy and didn't notice that Huoqian's face was now completely black.
Just because Baozi didn't notice doesn't mean Shitou didn't. Shitou casually slapped Baozi, then walked up to Huoqian and looked down at him: "Hey, what do you want me to call you? Huoqian or Kagaral? Anyway, I'm not going to call you Seventh Brother anymore, lest Luopipi gets suspicious."
"What is there to doubt? What is there to doubt about him? Humans are all cowards, cowards as mice, yet they always pretend to be great!" Huoqian muttered angrily, but his muttering was very loud.
Stone put one hand on his hip and the other on the chin of the fire tongs, forcing him to look up at him: "Hey, stop talking about humans like this and that. Weren't you human in your past life?"
"Who's human? You're the human!" Huoqian angrily shoved Shitou's hand away, turned his head to the side, and refused to look at Shitou again.
Stone was truly speechless. What was wrong with this guy? If you called him a dwarf, he got angry. If you called him a human, he still got angry.
"So what exactly are you now? Neither human nor dwarf? What the hell? A transvestite?"
Huoqian probably didn't understand what a transvestite was, so he was too angry to pay attention to Shitou.
After waiting for a while, seeing that Huoqian really had no intention of speaking again, Shitou simply ignored him and said, "Baozi, come here."
With a beckoning gesture, Baozi obediently hopped onto Shi Tou's hand: "Giggle, Baozi is Master's good Baozi. Master will tell Baozi to do whatever you want, Baozi will do!"
Looking at the unusually well-behaved Baozi, Stone nodded in satisfaction: "Tell me, do you know what kind of person Kagaral used to be?"
When Huoqian heard the name "Kagalar," he opened his mouth but made no sound.
"Gah? Kagaral?" Baozi was stunned for a moment before speaking, "Kagaal is very handsome! Master, you once said that Kagaral is a more handsome man than Ruthless!"
ruthless?!
Stone stared blankly at Baozi. What was going on? The master Baozi was referring to should be himself, right? But who was Wuqing? One of the Four Great Constables? The problem was, in every version of the Four Great Constables, Wuqing wasn't handsome. Of course, he was considered handsome, but what did that have to do with being pretty?
"Stone!" Huoqian suddenly snapped, "Am I pretty? Tell me, what does being pretty have to do with me?!"
Shi Tou was startled and quickly waved his hand to clarify, "No, no, you're not pretty at all. A rugged, wild man like you has absolutely nothing to do with being pretty!"
Although he didn't quite understand what Stone meant, Huoqian's intuition told him that he was being disliked...
Baozi, disregarding whether Huoqian's fragile little heart was hurt, said to herself, "Hehe, Baozi really didn't lie this time! Master, you really did say before that Kagaral is more beautiful than ruthless, and oh right, there's another line, that Secamoro is more handsome than Fang Yingkan!"
puff!
Shi Tou felt her blood rushing to her head, a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat, unable to go up or down. At that moment, she had only one thought.
Damn it, she wants to go back to Irene's time and scratch Irene to death!
Scratch him to death!!!
Stone, simply by virtue of being ruthless, truly couldn't recall any connection to beauty. But if we add Fang Yingkan...
Okay, the famous Fang Wulian, every fujoshi knows that!
In Baozi's words, this is unbearable!
"Giggle, Master, are you alright? Baozi really, really didn't lie!" Seeing the stone's expression, as if it wanted to smash its head against a wall, Baozi hurriedly assured, "If Baozi is lying, may Baozi forever remain a big steamed bun and never be able to turn back!"
This time, Stone absolutely believed Baozi's words, because if there were no time travelers, how would Baozi know about Fang Wulian in that world? Well, Baozi has finally learned to be honest.
Stone, who had just been pleased with Baozi's honesty, suddenly had a very bad feeling.
Wait, what did Baozi just say? Let's rewind a bit...
"You damned steamed bun! You, you, you..."
"Gah!" Baozi trembled with fear at Shitou's sudden display of terror: "Baozi swears, Baozi really didn't lie this time!"
Shi Tou's piercing gaze was fixed on Baozi: "You just said that if you lied, you'd be a big steamed bun forever, and you could never turn back, right?!"
"Huh?" Baozi was dumbfounded: "It's... wow..."
"You're my foot!"
Shi Tou threw the bun directly to the ground, then stomped on it hard.
Not to mention Baozi, even Huoqian, who had been sulking with his head down, was confused: "Shitou, what's wrong? Baozi didn't lie just now, and I remember you saying something like that before."
The point isn't whether or not someone lies, okay?!
