Bing Shiqi shouted, "Sir, he's an imposter! We were fooled last time!"
Ice Gulu quickly said, "No, I really am Ice Twenty-Six. I barely managed to escape back..."
Bing Shiqi gritted her teeth in hatred: "You said the same thing last time!"
The Ice Cave Priest looked at Ice Gulu with suspicion.
Ice Gulu said confidently, "My lord, seventeen, eighteen, ask me any questions you may have. Ask me anything from when I was little to now, and I promise I can answer them all. I really am twenty-six!"
After spending half a day, Bing Gulu finally proved that he was not an imposter.
The ice cave priest coughed for a long time before saying, "Alright, come in. I have something to ask you."
Ice Gollum followed the Ice Cave Priest into the ice house.
The igloo was very soundproof, so Lu Xingchen couldn't hear them talking from behind. Luckily, there was Meimei, and luckily Bing Gulu kept talking normally, so she had a general idea of what was going on inside.
Ice Gulu was quite clever; in just a few words, she recounted her escape in a coherent manner, quickly gaining the trust of the Ice Cave Priest.
Finally, he took out a gourd of wine and a bag of tobacco and handed them to the ice cave priest.
Bing Gulu lied repeatedly: "Sir, I remember you liked this. I kept an eye on it for several days before I managed to steal these two items, so I rushed back. If it weren't for this, I would have come back much earlier."
The ice cave priest was somewhat moved: "At least you have some conscience."
Bing Gulu said sincerely, "I will always remember your kindness and care."
The Ice Cave Priest was even more moved: "Good, good! I haven't spoiled you for nothing. Twenty-six, you really are a good child!"
He opened the wine gourd, overjoyed: "This wine...this wine smells so good? Twenty-six, great, great..."
Ice Gulu: "Sir, could you pour me some so I can have a taste first?"
Lu Xingchen secretly admired him.
Ice Gulu is clever; he took the initiative to taste the wine, fearing that the Ice Cave Priest might suspect there was something wrong with it.
The Ice Cave Priest watched as Bing Gulu took a sip and showed no abnormalities before taking out his wine gourd and drinking from it.
As he drank, he exclaimed, "Not bad, not bad, good wine! Haha, I haven't had such sweet wine in a long time!"
Lu Xingchen was very nervous.
This was just the first step of her plan: to see which state the Ice Cave Priest would enter after drinking the wine. If he entered a state of suspended animation or a state of revelry, she had a corresponding plan.
If it's just that her pronunciation is strange, then she can only move on to the next step.
However, the Ice Cave Priest is in poor health, and if I'm not mistaken, there's a high chance he's feigning death...
"Cough cough cough!" Suddenly, the Ice Cave Priest coughed violently. "I, cough cough cough, this alcohol is strong enough, twenty-six, I, I'm a little sleepy..."
Ice Gulu: "Daddy!"
Lu Xingchen: ...
She understood; Bing Gulu had drunk the perverted wine and entered the first state.
Thank goodness, it's just calling someone "Dad," I believe Bing Gulu can smooth things over.
To his surprise, the Ice Cave Priest was taken aback: "What did you call me?"
Bing Gulu: "Daddy, Daddy!"
He was stunned. Lu Xingchen had said that drinking too much of this wine would make you drunk, but only taking a sip or two would be fine.
But what's going on with him now?
How could he call the Ice Cave Priest "Dad"?
He was an orphan; he had no parents and had never uttered those words before.
No, we have to find a way to smooth things over.
He was about to speak when he blurted out, "Dad, let me explain!"
The Ice Cave Priest, tears streaming down his face, said, "Twenty-six, you...you already knew, didn't you?"
Bing Gulu was taken aback: "No, Daddy..."
The Ice Cave Priest hugged Ice Gulu tightly: "Twenty-six, I'm sorry, your father hasn't acknowledged you all these years."
What?
Lu Xingchen straightened up without thinking.
There's a secret!
A "thump" sounded from inside the house.
After a while, Bing Gu Lu's voice rang out: "My lord, my lord, are you there? The priest has fainted. You can come and dig out the insulation board now."
