Drinking deeply through the night.
Until dawn when the sky brightened, they finally dispersed.
Tu Qiu was already too drunk to stand, sleeping right on the ground.
Shi Tou was quite drunk too, with the pot of meat soup almost finished, leaving just a little bit at the bottom.
Jiang Xiaobai was still quite sober. He didn't go inside to sleep; instead, he left the Ice Castle and flew to the top of the ice mountain behind, watching the brightening sky, waiting for the sunrise.
After watching the sunrise, Jiang Xiaobai returned to the Ice Castle, by which time the children were already awake. Seeing him return, they ran over, surrounding him.
"Uncle, the sunrise here is really beautiful!"
"Do you like living here?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.
"Yes, we do."
The children never had any trouble adapting; their adaptability was far stronger than Jiang Xiaobai expected.
"Alright kids, go play elsewhere. Let Uncle Jiang go rest; he hasn't slept all night."
Bai Ling came over.
