"The auction hasn't even started yet. The drama has started... It seems that monks everywhere are like this. Even small places like the southeastern border are the same. I'm tired of watching this kind of drama."
"But what happened?" The man with pale face and lips leaned on the couch sadly and glanced at someone sitting in the middle in a daze.
"Eh... I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I forgot you were still sleeping, so I woke you up."
The other person shook his head and made a gesture to sit up straight. The other person quickly came up and offered his hand.
"I've been lying down for a long time, and now my bones are hurting. If I don't get up, they will get rusty." He loosened his somewhat tight wrists, and the look on his face suddenly became complicated.
He smiled self-deprecatingly: "My body and bones are really old. Maybe I'm not even as good as an old man."
"I used to soak in medicine jars all day long in China and lie down for most of a month. I didn't feel uncomfortable at that time. I just felt that the time was a bit long."
Now that he has come out and left the place that was a complete prison for him, his senses have become stronger. Although I was chased along the way, the world I saw was really wonderful, and I felt relieved in every aspect when I went out for a walk.
"I feel uncomfortable lying down now. You can see..."
"...This person would be better off walking away."
"We are born in this world just to see all the flowers and scenery and live happily and comfortably. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time to come to this world?"
"A Zhou." Gu Huai looked at the other person as if he had just met him, but the other person did not look at him, but looked in an invisible direction.
"I didn't expect you to say such a thing." Gu Huai was startled, but then a look of relief and appreciation appeared on his face. Although his younger brother is young and has a reckless temperament, he did not expect to have such a state of mind at such an age. It is not easy.
Although such an open-minded mentality cannot guarantee that he will achieve success on the path of cultivation, it can make his journey smoother and more cheerful.
After all, how a person lives actually depends more on his own mentality. Vigor and vitality are indeed wonderful, and simple life is also life. If you know how to live, first of all, you should live more like a person than many "people".
The little boy scratched his head, looking a little shy.
"You are a good boy. But you must practice hard and don't be lazy or slip up. Don't delay yourself."
After all, Gu Huai has gone through decades, and has experienced high mountains and lows. Although he still looks like a boy due to physical reasons, he is indeed much older than the real boy Xu Qingzhou. He also truly hopes that the other party can achieve a prosperous road.
Xu Qingzhou responded quickly.
Gu Huai smiled, looked at the red tips of the other party's ears, and changed the topic: "What did you say... about singing?"
"That's what happened the day we came back. Two major sects were very competitive..."
"...Yes, it was them. I heard that the people who took action died that night."
"Dead?" Gu Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, then frowned: "Did they do it themselves?"
"Of course not. You think those sects are too good. They will not deal with their own disciples to solve the problem, because that will make them appear incompetent and cowardly. It is said that the true king of that big sect did it."
That's a big problem. Gu Huai was thoughtful.
It doesn't matter who the murderer is. What's important is that people identify who the murderer is——
The two families had already been at odds with each other before, and the situation was tense, and then the person involved died violently, and there was no evidence of the death... No matter how you look at it, this is the rhythm of the coming storm.
No matter what the truth is, whether it was self-directed or acted, whether it was a vendetta or a homicide, it doesn't matter anymore. The trader determines all directions.
Anyone who can reach the position of Zhenjun is not stupid. Gu Huai felt that it was unlikely and unrealistic that the other party would choose to do it in public.
What about directing and acting? It's not like they were so unable to protect the disciples of the sect and made it known to everyone, which was a big loss.
So could it be a third party...someone wants to be behind?
"...Master, Master!" Gu Huai's thoughts were interrupted, and Xu Qingzhou's slightly lively voice penetrated his ears.
"Are you tired? Why are you in a daze all the time. Just lie down and have a rest. Don't be brave, we won't go to the auction. You just need to take good care of yourself."
"No -" Unexpectedly, Gu Huai refused, sat up straight, and suddenly regained his energy.
"...We may not be able to delay it any longer." Gu Huai smiled bitterly: "In two days, we will leave here as soon as the auction is over."
"Why? This side of Xunyang City is much more prosperous and tidy than other cities. Rich merchants gather here, and the goods are complete. As long as you have spiritual stones, you can buy most things. You are not in good health, and it is convenient to live here. Besides, , so rushed..."
"That day on Kaiyang Street, I heard someone talking about the incident in Yanglin Town."
Hearing this name, Xu Qingzhou was also shocked: "Yanglin Town? What happened to Yanglin Town?"
How could they in Yanglin Town not know this clearly? This place is the link between China and this place, and this is where they came in.
At the time they fled here, they were exhausted both physically and mentally. They had accumulated injuries for a long time and had varying degrees of injuries on their bodies.
Later, he was lucky enough to hide here and was rescued by the garrison family in Yanglin Town. I vaguely remember that the owner of that house was kind-hearted and kind-hearted. He didn't dislike them when they were in such a mess and even placed them in an unused guest courtyard.
At first, Xu Qingzhou was worried about what the other party was planning, and he was as nervous as an old hen protecting the unconscious Gu Huai all day long.
But a whole month has passed, and the other party has done nothing. They are still looking at the one-third of an acre of land under their feet, as if they have completely forgotten what they saved in the first place.
At that time, he was completely relieved and could take care of Gu Huai with peace of mind until he recovered from his injury and moved out of the He family.
The two of them lived in Yanglin Town for a long time and waited until Gu Huai's health improved before leaving there.
Maybe because they were saved there, or maybe because the people they met were so kind, Gu Huai and Xu Qingzhou had a very fond impression of that place. When you hear about this place, you will subconsciously pay attention to it.
Gu Huai opened his mouth with some difficulty, and after a long time he said with difficulty: "Something happened to the He family."
Seeing the pupils of the young man across from him shrink, he continued with difficulty: "They were... exterminated. It is said that the traces on their bodies are intertwined, and it is definitely the handiwork of Heyang Tower."
"They...are coming."
The expression on the face of the young man opposite suddenly froze, and Gu Huai's heart was filled with shock and anger.
Unexpectedly, the group of people still refused to let them go, and even chased them here. And because of this, the innocent He family was killed. Were they ever wrong? Wrong...shouldn't have met them.
