Yang Ruian and his party left the herbal medicine shop.
"Thank you for your help, dear friend." Gu Cheng thanked him.
"You're welcome, I just don't like that old fox." Yang Ruian shrugged.
"I don't know what to call my dear friend."
"This is Yang Ruian."
Yang Ruian's frivolous tone, I don't know when it will change.
However, isn’t this the label of freedom and ease? If this tone is lost, the taste will not be authentic.
"My lord, Gu Cheng, this is my sister Su Yingxue. Gu Cheng... thanks Brother Yang again."
"Su Yingxue thanked Brother Yang."
Gu Cheng and Su Yingxue expressed their thanks again.
However, Yang Ruian didn't take it to heart and said instead: "Gu Cheng, I know you. Aren't you the famous disaster star in Qingshi Town?"
Gu Cheng was silent.
Yang Ruian saw that Gu Cheng didn't seem happy to hear this, and thought to himself: Why is this disaster star so poor in ability to withstand stress? He has been disliked by others for so many years. Isn't he still used to it?
Hey, do you think everyone is as shameless as you?
But he would definitely not say that he was wrong, so he turned to comfort him: "People say that people in Qingshi Town are cold-blooded, and I really saw it today. Isn't he just an orphan who has no father or mother and often goes crazy, but he wants to be crowned It's really disgusting to be called a 'disaster star' and talk about something that is unlucky for both the father and the mother. If your child had been born in another town, he might have been pitied by that rich and kind person, and then taken him as a child. My adopted son was born in Qingshi Town, so he was really unlucky."
Yang Ruian's consolation was actually very good. He didn't say anything like "I can understand your mood" or "Let the disaster star be the disaster star. Don't care about other people's opinions" or anything like that. Instead, he directly put the blame on Qingshi Town because of the people in Qingshi Town. Only if you are feudal and indifferent will you be called a disaster star. If you lived in other places, you would definitely be held in the palm of someone's hand and hurt!
That's it... Qingshi Town is going to suffer a regional blackout for no reason.
Gu Cheng's face looked much better after listening to what Yang Ruian said. He thought about it, and what Yang Ruian said actually made some sense. Maybe he is not to blame for being despised by others.
After all, he has never done a bad thing, which is much better than Ye Kai who raped a civilian girl.
"Well, brother, don't listen to the nonsense of the people in the town. If you are really a disaster star, then I will die. How can I be saved by my brother?"
Su Yingxue echoed.
Hehe, you little fool even enlightened your brother. I don’t know who was almost eaten by others.
"That's what Brother Yang said."
"Don't underestimate that old fox Ye Kai. Although he is not very interested in gold and silver, as long as he mentions women, this old thief may have stars in his eyes. What's more, you have fallen in love with such a beautiful girl. , you must beware of his revenge."
Yang Ruian analyzed.
"I will protect her."
"Protection, what kind of protection are you using? Your small body is not big enough for someone to squeeze between their teeth!"
"You don't expect the government to help you."
"I...I will hide her."
"Oh, cowardly. Let's not say whether this trick will work or not. Even if it does work, do you still plan to hide it for the rest of your life?"
"Otherwise, we won't go to Qingshi Town."
"It can solve the urgent problem, but it is not a cure. A little Ye Kai in Qingshi Town has made you so troublesome. What if you go to other places and meet more powerful Wang Kai, Li Kai, and Zhu Kai? "
"No...it can't be."
"Haha, do you really think there are all good people in this world? One of them is enough for you. If there is another more powerful one, you probably won't be able to escape even if you want to!"
This method doesn't work either.
Gu Cheng looked at Su Yingxue and said, "How about you stop following me."
Su Yingxue was also a little embarrassed for a while. If she didn't follow her brother, she could indeed avoid some troubles, which seemed to be good for herself and her brother, but...she always felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of leaving.
Maybe he didn't want to stay alone in the deserted back mountain.
"How long are you going to be a coward?"
Yang Ruian rarely broke through the defense.
His mind was filled with thoughts of either running away or hiding, hiding or hiding. He had never seen such a coward before!
"I..." Gu Cheng was speechless for a moment.
Yang Ruian and his group walked along the street and unknowingly came to the weapons shop.
"Gu Cheng, help people to the end, I will give you a clear path now."
Yang Ruian came to the store and said as he walked:
"Now you can hide, you can hide, you can escape, but in the final analysis..."
He pulled out a sword and threw it directly to Gu Cheng.
"You have to be strong so you won't be bullied."
…
Gu Cheng went home and looked at the sword.
"Brother, what are you going to do?" Su Yingxue's silvery voice came to my ears.
"I don't know." Gu Cheng could only reply.
What Brother Yang said makes sense, but...but, with my illness...
If I drop this sword, I won't be able to protect her. If I hold this sword, I... I might kill more people.
"Look again, let me think about it again."
Gu Cheng said to himself.
"I think Brother Yang is right. As for my brother's illness... maybe, after my brother masters the method of cultivation, he will naturally find a cure.
"Even if the symptoms still don't improve, the worst we can do is hide ourselves and live our lives in the deep mountains and forests. That won't be enough."
What he said was actually very strange, but Su Yingxue didn't realize it, and Gu Cheng... didn't realize it either.
"Brother, if, I mean if, one day, I really have to leave you, what will you... do?"
"The only person who can talk to me is gone. I should be very disappointed."
But...is there really only loss?
Gu Cheng didn't know.
Gu Cheng recalled everything he had with the little fox, and his thoughts became more and more chaotic. In the end, he turned into a mess.
He had to admit that he... couldn't bear to part with this beautiful, innocent, and even somewhat stupid little fox who could play with him, chat with him, comfort him, encourage him, and help him.
but…
But he didn't dare to take that risk - he didn't want to hurt any innocent people.
Because he knows very well what it feels like to be hurt by others.
He originally wanted to study medicine, because this could make up for his inner guilt and regret. Although, being an ordinary person is not what he pursues.
Yes, who doesn’t want their life to shine, and who would be willing to be mediocre and inactive?
But when he realized the joke of fate, what he wanted was nothing more than an ordinary life.
But the irony is that ordinary life has become a luxury wish...
Now Ye Kai is just a shameless villain who is greedy and lustful, but this is enough to give Gu Cheng a headache.
However, what scares the ancient city even more is Su Yingxue’s identity as the fox demon.
Once this identity is exposed, it will lead to disaster.
By then, it will be useless to hide, because what he will face is the endless pursuit of the entire dynasty.
Gu Cheng thought about this, and the more he thought about it, the heavier he felt. After thinking for an unknown amount of time, he said:
"Well, regarding cultivation, I will listen to you and learn a technique to protect us. If my cultivation is too strong and it will hurt more people, I will find a place to live in seclusion and not care about the world.
"However, I still want to learn medical skills, not for anything else but for peace of mind.
I often hurt others when I can't control myself, which makes me feel very guilty. I want to help more people by studying medicine so that I can feel better. "
"Brother, you can practice healing spells to save people."
“Practice those healing spells of the flesh and bones of the living dead, which requires a very high level of attainment, while ordinary healing spells can only treat some low-level trauma, and in some places, they are not even as useful as secular medicine.
And the higher the state of my disease, the more likely it is to harm more people. If I blindly improve my state for the purpose of practicing healing spells, I'm afraid I won't save as many people as I kill.
"But the realm still needs to be improved. Brother Yang is right. Only when you have strength can you not be bullied by others.
"But I can't be blind. I have to find a balance between this."
He was surrounded by people he wanted to protect, which forced him to work hard to improve his strength.
And his unique system is like a time bomb, making him face huge risks every time he improves himself.
When to practice, when to be stable, whether to make a breakthrough, and even to what extent the practice is reached, these are all things he needs to consider. They are all what he needs to find, that "balance".
Su Yingxue saw her brother frowning, and she was thinking of a way for him in her heart. She comforted:
"Let's do this, brother. I will practice the healing spells. In this way, brother can focus on himself. Maybe, when I am successful in my practice, I will also find the cure for brother."
"That's the best." Gu Cheng agreed.
"By the way, Su Yingxue, weren't you a fox demon before? Logically speaking, a demon that can transform into a human form should be pretty strong, but why do I always have a feeling... you are weak and easy to bully? Is this feeling my misunderstanding?"
Gu Cheng only realized this problem now.
Since she is a demon, I shouldn't be too worried about the Ye family's targeting and revenge.
"How can I be so powerful? I'm just a little demon with only the spiritual realm and majoring in illusion."
"Then how can you take human form with such low strength?"
"Maybe it's because he majors in illusion and the white fox fox demon has a special system."
It seems that I still have to beware of the Ye family's revenge.
