The two brothers of the Gu family looked at each other in silence for a while. After a long time, Gu Xingnuo patted the back of Gu Xinglang's hand and said softly, "Don't be afraid, with big brother here."
Gu Xingnuo's words made the two brothers seem to have returned to a long time ago. At that time, whenever Gu Xinglang, who was still a young child, cried, Gu Xingnuo, as the eldest brother, always coaxed his younger brother in this way.
There is nothing to be afraid of as long as I have my big brother here.
It starts with this sentence and ends with this sentence.
Gu Xinglang finally laughed and said, "Brother, why do you still treat me like a child?"
Gu Xingnuo said: "No matter how old you are, I am still your brother."
Gu Xinglang lowered his head. He was furious just now, but now he was as obedient as a little animal returning to its nest.
Gu Xingnuo tried his best to raise his hand, but he couldn't touch Gu Xinglang's head, so he could only pat Gu Xinglang's shoulder. Gu Xingnuo had seen many deaths, but he had never personally ended the lives of his relatives and friends, so Master Gu was not like Yu Xiaoxiao, who knew when to let go and knew to admit his powerlessness at certain times. However, Master Gu understood that he could not let his brother become a person who brought chaos to the world, as this was the moral obligation of their Gu family to the world.
"Brother," Gu Xinglang called out in a low voice.
"Well," Gu Xingnuo responded, "Don't worry, the princess will be back soon."
The hut became quiet again. Gu Xinglang sat beside his eldest brother's bed, watching the light gradually fade out of the house and night fall.
Gu Sen and Xiang Zhu sat on the steps outside the house. Neither of them was in the mood to talk. They hugged their knees, Gu Sen stared at the empty space on his left, and Xiang Zhu stared at the empty space on his right. Both of them were in a daze.
Seeing that the night was getting deeper and the dew was getting heavier, Gu Xinglang could not wait any longer. He pressed down the quilt on Gu Xingnuo, who had fallen asleep again, and walked outside the hut.
When Gu Sen saw Gu Xinglang, he quickly jumped up from the steps and called out to Gu Xinglang, "Third Young Master."
Before Gu Xinglang could say anything, he heard Yu Xiaoxiao shouting from quite a distance: "Xiao Gu!"
Gu Sen and Xiang Zhu hadn't reacted yet. Young Master Gu just said, "I'm here," and ran towards the direction where the sound came from.
Xiang Zhu looked at Gu Sen and asked, "Do you think my master will be with your princess?"
Someone had to stay behind to watch over Gu Xingnuo, so Gu Sen didn't dare to follow Gu Xinglang. He rolled his eyes at the fat boy and said, "You have to ask your master. How could I possibly know?"
Xiang Zhu discovered that there was not a single good person among this group of people!
Gu Xinglang hadn't run far when Yu Xiaoxiao appeared in front of him. She opened her arms and said, "Xiao Gu, come into my arms."
Gu Xinglang... He really missed his wife, but throwing himself into her arms? Young Master Gu felt that this was not something that was suitable for him to do.
Yu Xiaoxiao saw that Gu Xinglang couldn't come over, so she had to go over by herself. She ran a few steps forward and hugged Gu Xinglang. Yu Xiaoxiao: "Xiao Gu, did you miss me?"
Gu Xinglang hugged his wife, nodded and said, "Yes."
"Yeah," Yu Xiao: "I thought about it too, come, let me kiss you."
At this time, Gu Xinglang saw the two great witches coming towards him from afar. He quickly lowered his head and kissed Yu Xiaoxiao on the face, then immediately turned his head away as if nothing had happened, pretending that he had not done anything just now.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood on tiptoe and gave Gu Xinglang a kiss on the face, saying, "Are you still shy? We are a legal couple, Xiao Gu, are you still afraid of being seen?"
Gu Xinglang didn't say anything, but just hugged Yu Xiaoxiao tighter.
"Let me tell you, I..." Yu Xiaoxiao was very happy to report her results to Gu Xinglang.
"Why does it smell like blood?" Gu Xinglang sniffed his nose and asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "Are you injured?"
"Ah?" Yu Xiao: "How could I be injured?"
Gu Xinglang looked his wife up and down, and then saw bloodstains on Yu Xiaoxiao's clothes.
"Your eyesight is pretty good," Yu Xiaoxiao gave Gu Xinglang a thumbs up. With the help of a little starlight, her little Gu could see the blood on her body.
Gu Xinglang was in no mood to joke with Yu Xiaoxiao at the moment, so he asked in a low voice, "Are you hurt?"
"No," Yu Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said, "Xiao Gu, I saved a medicine man today."
Gu Xinglang felt that there might be something wrong with his ears again. He shook his head to make himself more awake. Gu Xinglang asked Yu Xiaoxiao: "What did you say?"
Yu Xiaoxiao pointed her hand backwards and asked Gu Xinglang to look.
At this time, the Great Shaman Jinye came over holding Shanbei, and the Great Shaman Jinwu walked beside him, holding the sheepskin bag that served as a calling machine for Shanbei.
Gu Xinglang glanced at Shanbei who was being held by Jinye the Great Witch, and then Third Young Master Gu asked in confusion: "Is he a medicine man?"
Shanbei was wrapped in the wide robe of the Great Wizard Jinwu. Just looking at his hands and feet exposed outside the robe, one would at most think that this young man was a little dirty. Not to mention Gu Xinglang, even Yu Xiaoxiao could not tell that this young man was a medicine man.
"He is the nephew of Jinye Great Witch," Yu Xiao said, "Fifty years ago, all the people in his village were turned into medicine men, and this boy did not escape this fate. After he was turned into a medicine man, he was kept in a dungeon by the Great Witch. Oh, by the way, the people buried in the earthen graves we saw when we came here are all family members and friends of Jinye Great Witch."
There is no need for Jinye Da Wu to say anything, because Her Royal Highness the Princess has already told everything. (==)
Gu Xinglang looked towards the north of the mountain again.
Yu Xiaoxiao thought about it, and then said to Gu Xinglang in what she thought was a very quiet voice: "This great witch is not actually a necrophiliac. I think we can be friends with him."
Gu Xinglang's mouth twitched, and he whispered, "This is a small matter, you can just talk about it in private."
Yu Xiao: "It doesn't matter, I just speak so quietly."
The two great wizards... this guy made them feel magical at one moment, and at another moment, he made them feel like a fool. The huge difference in feeling made the two great wizards very upset.
Gu Xinglang wanted to go forward to see the medicine man his wife mentioned, but it would be rude to go forward so rashly, which made Young Master Gu hesitate.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't have the concerns that Gu Xinglang had. She pulled Gu Xinglang towards Jinye Dawu and said, "Xiao Gu, come and see Shanbei."
Gu Xinglang was pulled by Yu Xiaoxiao to the front of Jinye Great Wizard. He looked at Shanbei's face and asked for something to say: "His name is Shanbei?"
"Yes," Yu Xiao said, "After fifty years, he still looks the same as he did back then."
Shanbei's face had been scrubbed and was pale without a trace of blood. Gu Xinglang frowned and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"The two great witches and I got the bugs out of his brain," Yu Xiao said, "Now we just have to see if he can wake up."
Gu Xinglang said: "Can he get better?"
"I don't know." Yu Xiaoxiao touched the gauze wrapped around Shanbei's head and said, "We can only wait now. I have done everything I should do."
Gu Xinglang asked Yu Xiaoxiao without even thinking: "If Shanbei is fine, then can all the medicine men be saved?"
