"Yes." Gu Huai said with some embarrassment: "My grandson, Xiyan, has been looked after by me all the way and has received a lot of care from him."
"In an accidental conversation, she found out that I was seriously ill, so she decided to give the treasured Pure Spirit Flower to her grandson. There was really nothing she could do in return."
"Huh? From what you said, it seems that we have known each other for a while." Daojun Lingxu asked keenly.
He had raised Gu Huai almost hand-in-hand, and he understood his grandson's temperament, as well as some of his mannerisms and habits.
From what he said, it seemed that he was not very familiar with this friend, nor was he an ordinary friend. In his mind, he should be the kind of friend with whom he has a good relationship.
How many days have it been... Daojun Lingxu knows best how closed and cold his little grandson is in nature. Because of the absolute defects and diseases of the body, it is also more difficult to be friends with.
Ever since he was a child, he had never heard of the other party saying that he was a friend. Let alone friends, there are very few like-minded people.
The only people who are close to him are the Xu family and... Well, there is no need to talk about this now. It can be said that I don’t have any serious friends.
Taojun Lingxu also understands that given the other party's situation, if he is not relieved, he will not be able to live like a normal person. Let alone friends, making friends with whom you can travel together is a luxury. Even if you are practicing normal cultivation, surviving with ordinary life insurance is a luxury. Therefore, he never interfered with Gu Huai's friendship.
Unexpectedly, just by going out, in such a life-threatening environment, he could actually make friends, and have what he could call a "friend". Lord Lingxu didn't know whether he should be happy or melancholy.
"Actually, we haven't known each other for a long time, but... we are quite destined." Gu Huai smiled a little, seeming to recall that memory, and said with emotion.
"When my grandson disguised himself and wandered around the Forbidden Land, she encountered him several times in life and death crises. She got to know him later..."
"Is it a girl?" Daojun Lingxu suddenly asked.
"How did you know -" Gu Huai raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Sure enough... of course I heard it. Your tone was too soft, and it didn't sound like you were talking about brothers. Furthermore, after hearing that what you said and acted seemed like a woman just now, I guessed that your friend should be a female nun. ." Daojun Lingxu didn't know what he thought of, and when he looked at the young man, his expression suddenly became a little strange. Although he recovered quickly after only a moment, Gu Huai could see it clearly.
"Grandpa, what are you thinking about? Of course it's not what you think. The child is only 28 years old, so childish, and so sincere that it makes people worry. She asks for nothing but helps a lot. My grandson is really I don’t know how to repay him." Gu Huai said firmly.
"...Why are you so anxious, kid? I haven't said anything yet. Female nuns are just female nuns, and many female nuns in the contemporary era are better. I am just a little surprised. According to your temperament, I met a female nun in the past. Even Xiu Ke wants to stay dozens of feet away, it's normal to go out for a while." Daojun Lingxu pretended to be a little surprised, as if he had no idea.
Gu Huai smiled bitterly. Aren't you asking knowingly? There was naturally a reason why he had avoided approaching female cultivators before. Didn't his grandfather still know it? Even so, I still want to tease him.
"Okay, okay, grandpa won't tease you anymore, let's get back to business. People often say that if you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later. It seems that your journey is a blessing in disguise. You finally solved the dilemma and grew up. I have made some very worthy friends. I will live up to the sins you have suffered in recent days, so my grandfather will not punish you for leaving the clan without permission."
"You just have to remember in the future and don't do it again. Otherwise, I will ask a monk to teach you how to eat and suffer."
Gu Huai lowered his head, as if listening. He knew something was wrong, so he responded.
Daojun Lingxu also knew that Gu Huai was measured, so he probably listened to it, so he just said a few words and let it go. He changed the topic and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity. Although you can't force things, I can't help but hope for you more. If the amount of this Pure Spirit Flower can be more sufficient, the damage to your elixir palace will be eliminated." It can be completely cured.”
Gu Huai used his last bit of consciousness to hand the Pure Spirit Flower into the hands of Lord Lingxu, just in time for him to heal his body which was already on the verge of death. However, the amount of Pure Spirit Flower in his hand was just a little bit short, so he had no choice but to collect other precious spiritual materials to make up for it.
If we can get some more and put together a second prescription, it will not only be able to cure Gu Huaidan Mansion's problems without trace, but also have the effect of cleansing the marrow. And this is exactly what Gu Huai needs. He has accumulated poison for a long time and needs to be cleansed. Now he can only think of other ways.
That's why I say it's a pity...but it's already good to have it, so how can I force it.
Gu Huai knew what the other party was feeling pity for, but he was just the opposite, not pitying at all. And he even knew where the Jingling Flower was. Ningxia had gifted part of it to him, split it into two, and the other half was with Ningxia.
But he had no intention of taking it again, and he said the same thing even when he met Ningxia again.
He owed too many favors and too many blood debts. The number of debts he owed was shocking, and there was no need to add one more.
If my grandfather knew about this, he would definitely go and get it no matter the cost. It would be a sin if he disturbed Fufeng's peace. Although Ningxia has never said it clearly, how could Gu Huai not know with his knowledge that the current situation in the southeastern border is delicate and it is most unsuitable to cause another disturbance. Silence is probably the best thing for the land that once accommodated and protected him. repay.
So he didn't say anything about it, and just passed it by in silence. He comforted Dao Lord Lingxu, saying that although there were shortcomings, nothing in the world could be so perfect. The ability to cure his diseased bones that were about to break into pieces was already the blessing of his ancestors, so how could he ask for anything else.
Gu Huai has always been a quiet person, and he has been weak for many years. In the eyes of Daojun Lingxu, he is no different from the past, so naturally there is no way to detect the strangeness in him at that moment.
"By the way, speaking of friends... you were with the greedy disciples in the north, but they rescued you?" Daojun Lingxu asked as if he was remembering something.
Greedy Wolf's Mace's disciple once said that he had been entrusted by his grandfather to help find his whereabouts, so Gu Huai was not surprised that Lord Lingxu recognized Greedy Wolf's Mace. But how could my grandfather think of this?
"Yes. Are they still fine? But have they all gone back safely?"
"They are recuperating at the station specially prepared by the sect, and they will go back in the next few days. If you want to see them, my grandfather will make arrangements for you later." Lord Lingxudao said.
