In the blink of an eye, it was morning. The two were brought to a dilapidated temple by the old man and were casually thrown onto a pile of weeds by the old man.
It was unknown which deity was worshipped in this temple in the past. There were no statues or decorations, only a worn-out jar was left.
Looking at the surroundings, it seemed that the giant plants had all disappeared. All around, there were only weeds and fallen trees. It actually gave people a sad feeling.
The two finally relaxed, it seemed that Kirito was about to wake up. The old man at the side looked at him and smiled, then covered himself with a worn-out cotton-padded jacket and fell asleep.
After another hour, Kirito finally woke up. When he opened his eyes, it was so bright that it hurt his eyes. He had no choice but to quickly close them. It took him a while to recover.
At this time, Kirito looked around and found that Chachai was beside him. Only then did he feel relieved.
Only then did he notice that he didn't know where he was. Kirito looked around.
After looking for a long time, he suddenly found the jar. When he looked at the jar, his heart unconsciously thumped. When Kirito's eyes came into contact with the jar, it was like an ancient beast. Suddenly, a pressure pounced on Kirito. Kirito felt an unprecedented pain in his head. This sudden pain made Kirito choke and cough out a mouthful of blood. His unhealthy face became even paler.
At this time, the old man who was sleeping soundly suddenly opened his eyes and sternly reprimanded Kirito, "How can a trash like you look at this thing? Hurry up and close your dog eyes."
The old man's sudden words made people notice that his yellow front teeth were very funny. At this time, Kirito realized that there was someone else around him. Why didn't he notice his existence just now? Suddenly, Kirito thought of something shocking and looked at the old man in surprise. Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.
"Ahem, ahem." The old man coughed a few times in an attempt to ease the tension. He grinned at Kirito, but accidentally revealed his big yellow front teeth.
When Kirito saw this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Perhaps it was because the old man's big front teeth had a mysterious attraction, or perhaps it was a joke. Chacai, on the other hand, showed no signs of waking up.
"Hey, brat, that's enough. Don't make me angry."
The old man seemed to have realized that Kirito was mocking his front teeth and could not help but scold him angrily. However, he seemed to be a natural clown. When he was angry, his hair suddenly exploded. Coupled with his strange appearance, Kirito could not help but hold his stomach and laugh.
After a long time, Kirito seemed to realize his impoliteness and stopped laughing. However, he did not dare to look at the old man's face cap again. He embarrassedly said to the sloppy old man, "I'm sorry, old man. I didn't do it on purpose." The sloppy old man did not respond and only snorted softly.
Then the old man said to Kirito, "Brat, you're really not worth it. If I had known, I wouldn't have saved you two. It would have been better if you had been eaten by that beast. You heartless thing. Hmph!" Kirito embarrassedly lowered his head with a red face.
After a long time, he said to the old man, "Thank you for saving my life, old man. However, I was forced to do this because I had no other choice. I'm sorry."
The old man saw Kirito's sincerity and did not ask further. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I'm a good person."
After saying that, he continued to ask, "Brat, why are you here? You've disturbed my free life."
Kirito thought for a moment and said, "Old man, I'm sorry. It's a long story. I don't know why I ended up here."
The old man pondered for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "Kid, you're quite bold. Do you know what kind of jar that is? Aren't you afraid that you'll go blind? This jar is sealed with an extraordinary character. Aren't you afraid that he'll kill you in seconds?"
Hearing the sloppy old man say this, Kirito couldn't help but feel scared. He really did feel the deadly threat that the jar gave him. The old man wasn't just trying to scare him.
The two of them were silent and seemed to be thinking about their own matters. At this time, the sloppy old man's stomach began to growl. The old man smiled, and Kirito also felt hungry.
The old man walked out and shouted at the sky. After a while, a snow-white rabbit sat on the back of a cute and stupid little wooden dog. It seemed that the little dog was helpless and angry, but it seemed that there was nothing it could do.
Behind them was a big bird-like creature. It looked like it had been killed, and it didn't move. It was hard to imagine how such a weak thing could be pulled.
The old man laughed and said, "My two little babies are so powerful. Thanks to you, I don't have to go hungry. Haha."
Kirito saw this and didn't say anything. He felt like he had seen these two before, but he couldn't remember where.
When the two of them dragged the food to the front of the temple, the old man conjured a bunch of firewood and an inconspicuous iron rod that looked similar to his walking stick. The only difference was that this walking stick was much bigger.
In just a few moments, the big bird was being roasted by the old man. Golden oil came out of it, and it looked delicious.
Kirito saw this and felt hungry, but he couldn't say anything.
After the sloppy old man finished roasting the big bird, he grabbed a piece of wing (a huge wing) and threw it to the two of them. The two of them seemed to be very happy. They carried the food and ran to the side to eat. The small dog seemed to be afraid of the rabbit. It waited for the rabbit to finish eating before it started to eat. It looked helpless.
When the old man saw this, he laughed out loud and said, "You useless piece of trash, you've really lost all face." The puppy actually lowered its head in shame like a human.
At this moment, the old man tossed a bird leg to Kirito and ate it with relish.
Kirito was also a straightforward person. He didn't say anything when he saw the bird leg thrown by the old man. When Kirito got up, he felt sore all over. However, it seemed like the wounds from the battle with Aizen had shrunk. Kirito didn't think too much about it. He was hungry, so he grabbed the bird leg and ate it.
On the other side, the speed at which the two fellows ate was frighteningly fast. Although they were not big in size, this thing that was a hundred times bigger than them was like cotton candy. It did not take long for them to finish it all. The two fellows looked at the sloppy old man, who did not seem to care about their pitiful gazes. He continued to eat like a madman.
