At the dinner table, Guo Jia devoured the food like a starving ghost reincarnated, even the braised fish that usually didn't move with gusto.
"Xiaojiazi, why did you sleep for so long this time?" Bai Lan asked from the side.
Guo Jia has not heard of it.
"Don't disturb his meal. He has been hungry for six days." Bai Lian pushed Bai Lan and scolded.
"Oh, okay." Bai Lan responded.
After eating and drinking, Guo Jia lay on the stool holding her stomach and said feebly: "Sister Lian, has anyone visited me while I was asleep?"
"My adoptive father came to see you. He asked us why you stayed at home and slept for six days in a row." Bai Lian replied.
"What did you say? You didn't tell me that I was a stranger, did you?" Guo Jia asked.
"You told us not to say it, of course we didn't." Bai Lan interjected.
"Then how do you explain it? I've been sleeping for six days in a row. It doesn't look normal." Guo Jia said in surprise.
"We just don't know anything." Bai Lan said confidently.
"I'll go, is that okay?" Guo Jia said in shock.
"But my adoptive father was a little weird that day. He asked a lot about you. He didn't ask anything about you before." Bai Lian said.
"What did he ask?" Guo Jia asked.
"He told us not to tell you." Bai Lian pretended.
"Holy shit!" Guo Jia shouted dissatisfied.
In fact, Bai Lianming didn't need to tell him that it must be related to his amnesia. Combined with his memory of the last day before his amnesia, he had almost concluded that his amnesia must be caused by the second elder. That old guy knew magic!
"Sister Lian, after today, this year is over, I have to go back to practice swordsmanship." Guo Jia changed the subject.
"So?" Bai Lian blinked.
"Can you lend me your Xinhua Dictionary? I want to take it back and study it." Guo Jia said politely.
"You want to study your magic, why don't you study it with me? I'm much smarter than you." Bai Lian said puzzled.
"I'm sorry to bother you anymore." Guo Jia said pretending to be polite.
"Why are you being polite to me? I don't see you being polite when I eat and drink." Bai Lian said sarcastically.
"You can't say that. I did a lot of work when you went to the mountains to collect herbs. I helped find many precious medicinal materials, but I didn't take any of the money in exchange." Guo Jia said unconvinced. .
"Tch! With a bit of luck, I picked up a few medicinal materials and you were so proud. Don't you think about it, how many times did you help me throughout the year? Is it worth your meal? I'm really not ashamed." Bai Lan stood up and helped.
"I just emphasized that I am not a freeloader, and I didn't say that I don't owe you anything." Guo Jia said shamelessly.
Bai Lian and Bai Lan rolled their eyes in unison.
"By the way, why can't you tell others that you are a stranger?" Bai Lian suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but ask.
"In short, I can't say." Guo Jia said vaguely.
Bai Lan stepped forward and held Guo Jia's wrist, asking forcefully: "Say it or not!"
Guo Jia didn't expect Bai Lan to do this. After suffering the pain, she said angrily: "You're a scumbag! You actually attacked me!"
Bai Lian suddenly showed a strange smile. She walked up to Guo Jia and whispered into his ear: "Are you suspecting that your adoptive father caused you to lose your memory?"
Guo Jia was shocked. Bai Lian was usually taciturn, like an iceberg beauty, but she didn't expect to be so smart and smart, and she could tell his thoughts at a glance.
Guo Jia's expression had betrayed her. When Bai Lian saw this, she stopped covering up and said directly in front of Bai Lan: "You don't want to study your magic with me, are you afraid that I will tell my adoptive father? You're such a good person. Guo Jia is actually wary of us!"
"I didn't!" Guo Jia said harshly.
"Xiaolan, let him go and let him speak clearly." Bai Lian frowned.
"Here!" Bai Lan responded.
"Okay, let me tell the truth! I do suspect that my amnesia was caused by the second elder. It is him I am wary of, not you." Guo Jia explained honestly.
"But you have to help me keep the secret. Don't tell the second elder about me until I get my memory back. If you betray me, I will never talk to you again." Guo Jia said in a weak tone. threatened.
"If you don't talk to us, what will you eat in the future?" Bai Lan said amusedly.
"I can eat without saying a word." Guo Jia said shamelessly.
"You are too shameless." Bai Lan said with shame.
"Hmph, how much is face worth? How can you achieve great things if you are not ruthless?" Guo Jia said smugly.
"Has he read too much Water Margin?" Bai Lian asked Bai Lan.
Bai Lan nodded wildly.
"Hey, hey, will you help me keep my password?" Guo Jia asked.
"Let me think about it." "I have to think about it." Bai Lan and Bai Lian responded at the same time.
"Huh? Bai Lan, why are you interrupting? You've always been on my side. Do you think I have to please both of you at the same time?" Guo Jia frowned.
"Otherwise?" Bai Lian and Bai Lan said in unison.
Bai Lian and Bai Lan discussed for a long time before giving the answer: "We can keep the secret for you, but you have to agree to one condition for each of us."
"What conditions?" Guo Jia asked.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll wait until I think about it." Bai Lan replied.
"What about Xinhua Dictionary?" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"I can lend it to you, but you have to study it with me the next time you come back." Bai Lian said and handed the Xinhua Dictionary to Guo Jia.
After getting the dictionary, Guo Jia suddenly exclaimed: "Wait a minute! Is studying with you a condition? Sister Lian, have I fulfilled your condition?"
For a moment, Guo Jia felt his whole body stiffen and could not move. Bai Lian took back the Xinhua Dictionary from his hand and said angrily: "Then I won't lend it to you."
"No, no, no, I was wrong! I was just joking, don't take it seriously." Guo Jia begged for mercy.
That night, Guo Jia returned to Juejian Sect with the Xinhua Dictionary lent to him by Bai Lian.
As soon as he returned to the disciple's wing, he found the second elder sitting on his bed and said calmly: "I have been waiting here for a long time."
"Second Elder? Why are you here?" Guo Jia asked in surprise. He guiltily hid the Xinhua Dictionary behind his back.
The sharp-eyed second elder immediately noticed the abnormality and asked: "What are you holding in your hand! Show me!"
Guo Jia was like a student whose teacher confiscated his mobile phone, and he handed over the Xinhua Dictionary in his hand.
"Xinhua Dictionary? Bai Lian lent it to you?" the second elder asked in surprise.
"Yes, how did you know?" Guo Jia said in surprise.
"This dictionary is my birthday gift to her. Of course I know that." The second elder said angrily.
"Ah? Aren't people in Penglai Cave Heaven only born on birthdays?" Guo Jia changed the subject.
"We only celebrate our 100th birthday. You haven't told me yet, why do you want this Xinhua Dictionary? Are you illiterate?" The second elder continued to ask.
"You should know about my amnesia. I can't remember many words now, so I want to borrow this dictionary to study." Guo Jia lied.
"Oh? So you don't plan to retrieve your memory?" The second elder said something incomprehensible.
"What? Are the two related?" Guo Jia asked confused.
"If you can retrieve your memory, you will naturally remember the words you don't remember. Why bother looking in the dictionary?" said the second elder.
"But I can't retrieve my memory now. Can't I learn how to read first? Is it possible that the second elder can help me retrieve my memory? I remember that you can do magic." Guo Jia said insinuatingly.
"I can't help you recover your memory. I'm here today mainly because I want to ask you three things." The second elder said.
"What's the matter?" Guo Jia asked.
"Why did you sleep at home for six days during the Chinese New Year? Did you have some strange disease?" asked the second elder.
"Yes, I have been weak and sick since I was a child. I have a hidden disease called lethargy. The period of onset is very irregular and I will sleep for three, four, five or six days at a time." Guo Jia said shamelessly.
The second elder showed a look of surprise. This was not the first time that Guo Jia had slept like this for several days.
"I see, let's not mention this matter for now. Let me ask you, what is your magic?" the second elder said in surprise.
"Ah?" Guo Jia pretended not to know anything, but she was furious in her heart: Bai Lian, Bai Lan, you two actually betrayed me!
"Don't pretend to be stupid. I know you are a stranger. You went crazy that day and I was nearby." The second elder sneered.
"Going crazy with mental power?" Guo Jia asked in confusion. This time he really didn't know.
"The air that echoed outside your body that day was your mental power. Your mental power was already strong, but you didn't use magic for a long time, so you went berserk." The second elder was forced to explain.
"Oh, but I don't know what my magic is, really." Guo Jia said sincerely.
"Huh, you'll know right away if you're lying." The second elder smiled sinisterly. He took out a piece of blue talisman and asked Guo Jia to hold it, and then asked: "Your magic What is it?"
"I don't know." Guo Jia said honestly.
The second elder glanced at the blue talisman in Guo Jia's hand and was surprised to find that there was no response. He speculated in his mind: What is going on? Has this kid lost his memory to the point that he doesn't even know what his magic is?
"Second Elder, if you have any questions, please ask them quickly. I have to get up early tomorrow." Guo Jia urged.
"It's only the beginning of the year, why are you so anxious, do you want to drive me away?" the second elder said dissatisfied.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Guo Jia said timidly.
"You must be interested in the third thing. Let me ask you, have you fallen in love with any suitable girl recently?" the second elder said seriously.
Guo Jia's eyes widened. This was not a question that the Second Elder would ask at all!
"You still remember your three preferential treatment conditions as an outsider, right? Now there is only one left that has not been completed. I think you have reached the age of talking about marriage. Pick one quickly. Once you have a wife, you don't have to We ate and drank at Bai Lian's house."
"I think it's good to eat and drink together." Guo Jia said shamelessly.
"Shut up! Bai Lian and Bai Lan don't want to get married in the future? Do you still want them to serve you for the rest of their lives?" the second elder said angrily.
"You said you can choose whatever you want. If you dare, marry Bai Lian to me." Guo Jia retorted forcefully.
The second elder was silent for a long time with dull eyes, and finally said: "That's okay."
"Huh?!!!" Guo Jia exclaimed in disbelief, he just said it casually!
