"Second Elder, are you kidding me?" Guo Jia laughed awkwardly.
"If you can live a peaceful life from now on, I can marry Bai Lian to you." The second elder said seriously.
"She is your goddaughter!" Guo Jia said to fight the injustice.
"What do you mean by that? Did she feel wronged by marrying you?" the second elder said excitedly.
"That's not true, but there is an age difference between us." Guo Jiaqiang said rationally.
"If you count your actual age, except for Liu Tiejiang's daughter who was born the year before last, you are the youngest. You can only find someone older than you. In our Penglai Cave, even men and women who are two to three thousand years apart can get married and have children normally. , Bailian is only more than 1,200 years older than you, which is nothing at all." The second elder said seriously.
"Second Elder, how come you know my age so well?" Guo Jia asked in surprise.
"Because I care about you." The second elder sneered.
Guo Jia suddenly felt a chill.
"Don't interrupt, do you want to marry Bai Lian?" the second elder asked.
"What should I do if Bai Lian doesn't agree? She has always regarded him as her younger brother." Guo Jia asked rhetorically.
"She will agree. No one can violate the rules of the village." The second elder promised.
"Let's forget it. I don't want this to ruin our relationship." Guo Jia flinched.
"Are you entertaining me?" the second elder said angrily.
"I don't necessarily have to choose Bai Lian. It's not like there are no other girls in the cave. Why don't you give me some time to consider the candidate?" Guo Jiayi said sternly.
"How long do you have to think about it?" the second elder frowned.
"100 years?" Guo Jia asked tentatively.
"Huh!?" the second elder said angrily.
"Those 10 years." Guo Jia bargained.
"No, I will only give you one year." The second elder dismissed.
"Why?" Guo Jia asked puzzled.
"There is no reason. If you haven't thought about it by then, just let it go." The second elder said in a deep voice.
Guo Jia nodded in agreement on the surface, but mentally he muttered: If you give up, just give up.
The second elder gave Guo Jia an intriguing look, then walked away, and Guo Jia's door closed automatically.
Guo Jia just breathed a sigh of relief. He was just about to take off his clothes and go to bed when a majestic spiritual pressure emanated from his body. Countless gaseous spiritual powers overflowed and circled around Guo Jia for several weeks. After the day, she returned to Guo Jia's sea of consciousness. Today, Guo Jia finally successfully advanced to level 7 unconsciously.
At the same time, a subtle change appeared in Guo Jia's personal information box: Biography (locked) → Biography (readable).
Time flies, and more than half a year has passed.
Guo Jia climbed Anmiao Mountain alone. For more than half a year, he spent two hours every night watching images of his life. The information about his life was read not only through text descriptions, but also video playbacks.
Guo Jia has lost eighteen years of memory. Even if he skips reading, he can't finish it all in half a year. Although he has not yet recovered all his memories, he already understands the cause and effect. In order to dispel the second elder's concerns, he decided to come to propose marriage.
Guo Jia walked all the way to the inner courtyard, and under the guidance of the omniscient system, stepped into the large house in the center. The three elders had been waiting for him for a long time and were sitting in their respective seats, looking at this uninvited guest.
"I've met three elders!" Guo Jia saluted.
"Tell me, what's the matter here?" the great elder asked.
"The second elder asked me to choose a suitable woman to marry, and I have already decided on the candidate." Guo Jia said straightforwardly.
The first elder and the third elder looked at the second elder in surprise, as if they didn't know about this.
The second elder coughed slightly in embarrassment and explained: "Wouldn't it be good for him to start a family and start a business as soon as possible? To prevent him from thinking wrongly."
"What's wrong?" Guo Jia asked, pretending not to know.
"Did I ask you to speak? Shut up." The second elder said angrily.
Guo Jia decisively shut her mouth.
After half an hour, the second elder couldn't bear it and said, "Who is it? You should tell me!"
"Bai Lan." Guo Jia replied.
The three elders immediately looked at him with suspicion.
Even a shameless person like Guo Jia couldn't help but blush when he felt the unabashed look of contempt. He quickly scratched his head and explained: "Well, I'm not a lolita control, I just think Bai Lan's temperament She is just more suitable for me, I can wait until she grows up before marrying her."
"Our girls from Penglai Dongtian must be 1,000 years old before they can get married. Bai Lan is only 549 years old this year. How long will it take for you to get married to her? No." The second elder objected.
"It's only 451 years. I can afford to wait. The worst is to make a marriage contract first." Guo Jia insisted.
"Bai Lian is more beautiful, why didn't you choose her?" the second elder questioned.
"Marriage is a major event in life, how can you only care about looks? The key point is whether they are compatible or not? Am I, Guo Jia, such a superficial person?" Guo Jia lied so hard that he almost vomited.
However, his remarks were appreciated by the third elder. The third elder praised: "I didn't expect you to have such insights at such a young age. It's really rare."
"Third brother, don't be deceived by him. He clearly wants to delay the wedding." The second elder said displeased.
"Second brother, I know you have prejudices against him, but he is my great-nephew after all, and he has never done anything wrong so far. You can't even let him make the final decision on your marriage, right?" The third elder helped.
"You are my great-aunt!?" Guo Jia lost his voice. He really didn't know about this.
"What's wrong?" asked the third elder.
"It doesn't look like it." Guo Jia said bluntly.
Guo Jia actually belongs to the Appearance Association. The third elder is dark and ugly. He doesn't really want to recognize this uncle.
"Second brother, I take back what I said. This kid should just let you have your way." The third elder said angrily.
"No, grandpa, we are members of the family!" Guo Jia said, taking advantage of the situation.
"Haha, don't scream, we are not alike." The third elder said angrily.
"Go back, you still have two months to think about it." The second elder issued an eviction order.
"Isn't it said that no one can break the rules in Dongtian? Aren't the three preferential treatment conditions for outsiders considered to be the rules in Dongtian?" Guo Jia used his trump card.
The great elder, who had been keeping his eyes closed and silent, finally opened his eyes and admitted, "Forget it, you can marry Bai Lan."
"Brother!" The second elder was about to say something, but was interrupted by the first elder with a wave of his hand. "The rules in the cave are absolute and no one can violate them. As law enforcement elders, the three of us cannot go beyond the rules." The elder said solemnly.
In desperation, the second elder had to agree to Guo Jia's request. Guo Jia, who was very happy, walked out of the house. Before leaving, he glanced at the second house on the left and showed a hesitant look: This house is The second elder's residence is where the magic weapon that took away his memory is hidden.
In the end, Guo Jia chose to leave. Although he already had the strength to arm-wrestle with the second elder, it was still too reluctant to fight one against three. Moreover, Anmiao Mountain was still the home ground of the second elder. He would definitely suffer a loss if he fought here. .
"Hide your strength and bide your time, hide your strength and bide your time." Guo Jia murmured to himself.
Time passed and Penglai Cave Heaven ushered in the fishing festival that takes place every twenty years. The difference from the past is that even the three elders came to this fishing festival. To the surprise of the second elder, Guo Jia did not come to join in the fishing festival, but this relieved him.
Twenty years later, it was the eve of the fishing festival.
Han Dan and Guo Jia are sitting in the room meditating. Over the years, Guo Jia's swordsmanship has improved to the point where he has begun to understand the meaning of the sword. However, understanding the meaning of the sword cannot be completed overnight. Guo Jia is not a genius to begin with. He is absent-minded. There is almost no progress in understanding the sword's intention.
"Apprentice." Han Dan suddenly said.
Guo Jia looked around and then asked in surprise: "Master, you called me?"
"Do I have a second apprentice?" Han Dan said angrily.
"What's the matter? Suddenly it sounds so disgusting." Guo Jia asked with a twisted look on his face.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Han Dan said seriously.
Guo Jia was shocked and said without changing her expression: "My holiday hasn't arrived yet."
"You don't have to lie to me anymore. I know you want to leave and leave this place. Don't worry, I won't betray you again this time. There are just some things I want to explain to you." Han Dan said sincerely.
Guo Jia looked puzzled. He thought that he had never exposed any flaws in these years. Could it be that Han Dan was deliberately deceiving him again?
"You and I have been together as master and disciple for so long, and I still don't know your character? You have been too honest these years." Han Dan explained.
"Master, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Guo Jia pretended to be stupid.
"Come with me to the Sword Tomb. I have something to give you." Han Dan sighed.
"Sword Burial Tomb? Why are you going there?" Guo Jia asked.
"Although I have never been out, I also know that there is a vast ocean outside the cave. If you don't have treasure to defend yourself, you may be buried in the sea. There is a water-repelling sword in the sword tomb of Jingxuyuan, which can block the seawater halfway. Zhang Kaiwai, what do you want?" Han Dan asked.
"Is there such a treasure?" Guo Jia said half-convinced. He thought Han Dan was lying to him because the omniscient system had no information about this sword at all. However, after thinking about it, the same situation seemed to be true for the Minlong Sword.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it first." Han Dan said.
Guo Jia was suddenly moved. Before leaving Penglai Cave, he would inevitably have to have a fierce battle with the second elder. He could not guarantee that after the fierce battle, his remaining mental power would be able to support him to activate the Almighty Synchronization and return to the shore. If the Water-Bearing Sword was really as magical as Han Dan said, he would be much more confident of returning to the shore.
Seeing Guo Jia's thoughtful look, Han Dan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Do you doubt that I will betray you again? If I really want to betray you, I can just go to the second elder and report you now. Why bother?"
When Guo Jia heard this, he suddenly realized that it made sense and said: "Master, you also know that tomorrow is my last chance. I don't want anything to go wrong on this last day. The second elder knows my position. If I go to the Sword Tomb to be buried today He will definitely become suspicious, can you..."
"Okay, I'll get it for you." Han Dan agreed simply.
