——Replace immediately, replace immediately, come back after two o’clock——
It's late at night, it's cold in the mountains, cicadas are chirping and frogs are chirping. The scenery in this world of cultivation is actually not much different from the mortal world, they are all in the human world.
Monks don't really need sleep, but it's probably an instinct engraved deep in the blood of human ancestors. Even monks are used to resting at night. Even if they don't fall asleep, they will choose to stay in their respective residences and practice.
Xuantian Sword Sect is located in a series of mountain ranges on the west side of the central part. Almost all of its disciples choose mountains to live in and build caves in suitable places.
The Gu family originally arose from the Xuantian Sword Sect and had deep connections with the sect. Their clan members have a small mountain range as their default residence in the Xuantian Sword Sect.
Daojun Lingxu is already a monk in the out-of-body stage, and many people below call him the ancestor. But in fact, he is not that old. He is not the eldest member of the Gu family. Strictly speaking, he is even relatively young. Daojun Lingxu's father is the youngest son of the Gu family, and his family can be considered a direct descendant of the family.
However, Taojun Lingxu's father died when he was young and has been gone for many years. Now the leader of this family is Taoist Lingxu. And his direct lineage is not close to several uncles, and he is not close to his grandparents further up. In these years, he has just lived and practiced in the area designated by his direct lineage for their generation, but he has not been close to other lines in the clan. Stay safe and sound.
Lord Lingxu has three sons and four disciples, all of whom are assigned special caves in this mountain range.
Gu Huai's father, Gu Jiansheng, was the youngest son of Lord Lingxu. His mother died not long after giving birth to him, leaving only four people, father and son. From then on, Daojun Lingxu never looked for a new Taoist companion.
And Gu Jiansheng was also jealous of talents. He went out for training at a young age and never came back. His life soul card was also found to have been extinguished. There has been no news for these years and he is most likely dead.
So only Gu Huai, a sickly orphan, was left. Fortunately, Taojun Lingxu loved and cared for him very much, and raised him personally. Apart from his natural flaws, he actually did not suffer from the hardships of human nature.
However, Gu Huai probably had a rough life. Although he had not been tempered by the world, the shortcomings he had brought about were enough for him. He had suffered enough, and his life was miserable enough.
In the past few years, he had been living abroad, being hunted and killed, and suffered countless hardships. I'm afraid it would be more than the pain he suffered from birth to before he left the sect combined.
Even Gu Huai himself thought that he might not be able to survive and return to the sect alive. I never thought that he would come back in the end.
He was also very tough - not only those who secretly watched him die felt this way, but even he himself sometimes felt this way.
But... he once swore that if he didn't die, if he got a chance to get through the difficulties, he would definitely get retribution for those who caused him such harm and those who harmed the people around him.
Back to the topic, Gu Jiansheng is the youngest son. Because his mother died before he grew up, he was placed in a residence relatively close to Lord Lingxu for easy care.
Later, when Gu Huai was born, according to the rules, he should have another place to live. But because of this situation, he was arranged to continue to stay in Gu Jiansheng's former residence.
And because Gu Huai was in poor health, Gu Jiansheng's former residence was deep and secluded, which was perfect for him to cultivate his body.
Now it can also be said to be Gu Huai's cave. It is located deep in this small mountain range and is only a few miles away from Daojun Lingxu's cave. As long as the elders are aware, they can reach it in the blink of an eye. This also shows the elders' love for the younger generation.
It was already late at night, but Gu Huai's cave was still brightly lit, and two strangers had replaced the heads at the door.
In fact, this scene has been going on for many days. Gu Huai's treatment also lasted for many days, but no one in the Gu family knew the details of his condition. Only Lord Lingxu, who was frequently in and out and could be considered half of the healers, knew better.
But something seems different today.
Although the two people at the door had expressionless faces, if you look closely, they looked more alert than ever. There were tiny sounds coming from the cave that used to be so quiet. I just don't know what they are talking about and who is talking inside.
"Finally woke up. Come on, let me have a look at my grandfather. You are such a worrying guy. You almost scared me to death." Daojun Lingxu sat casually on the edge of the couch, looking at this person whom he hadn't seen for a while. grandchildren.
In fact, Gu Huai returned to the sect more than a month ago, but he has been in a coma due to serious injuries. All Daojun Lingxu saw was an unconscious body, so there was no way to meet him.
Today, people have woken up, and the grandfather and grandson have finally seen each other seriously after several years of separation.
"...Huai'er is extremely unfilial." Gu Huai choked up and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He had so much to say, his pain, his astringency, his suffering, his grievances, his despair... Like a tired bird returning to its nest, he finally found a home where he could rest temporarily—— Even this is only temporary.
But when the words came to his lips, they were blocked in his heart. Forget it, if he really wanted to say it, what should he say?
To be honest, it was all over, and he didn't even care about what he had endured. He should keep it in his heart if he can't live with it, and he will be rewarded one day.
"You are unfilial. Why did your child leave the sect without saying a word? It is different from me as a grandfather, and it is also different from the people in the family. You went out with a child who is younger and less sensible than you. You... Who do you want to scare to death?"
"Look what you did to yourself when you went out... How do you teach me how to explain to your father?" Lingxudao became more and more angry as he spoke. In the end, he couldn't help but cover the top of Gu Huai's hair and rub it randomly. Move around.
Seeing the other person's expression change immediately, he finally felt a little more relaxed. This child has cared about appearance the most since he was a child. He can't bear to have dirty and messy clothes on weekdays. He is also polite and elegant in dealing with others. Lingxu rarely sees him lose his composure.
He didn't expect that such a simple little gesture could stir up his mood. Alas, this child has to be treated like this... I really don't know whose temper he followed. It was obvious that his father was a generous and informal person when he was young, but his son was like this.
But yes, Xu still followed his grandmother. This child's grandmother, his wife of Taoist Master Lingxu, was also the well-known Fairy Ruofu in the world of cultivation. He remembered that the little girl also loved beauty so much...
Gu Huai had a slight temper and was about to pull his messy bun with his hands, but found that the big hand that had been causing trouble suddenly stopped, and the mood of the people around him seemed to be a little wrong.
When he looked up again, he was stunned.
