Chapter 272 The Martial World (20)
Gu Yanjing slept soundly at night without being disturbed, and when he woke up he felt refreshed and all the soreness in his body had disappeared.
As usual, Su brought breakfast over to serve Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yanjing didn't stand on ceremony. He invited Su Youyi to finish eating with him and then went downstairs.
Zhang Ling'er sat alone in the lobby downstairs eating a pancake. Her face was still pale, her eyes were lifeless, and she looked like she had indulged in excessive sexual activity.
Gu Yanjing was silent for a moment: "What did you do last night?"
Upon hearing Gu Yanjing's voice, Zhang Ling'er immediately stood up: "Master, in response to your question, this disciple went drinking with Nan Wan'er last night."
She even touched a male prostitute's hand; this was truly a blissful life.
Look at her, look at the kind of life she used to lead.
What a waste of time!
"Forget it, you should play with Nan Wan'er less in the future." She's too wild.
His little apprentice, on his very first night in the mortal realm, was taken out to drink and carouse. It was truly...
"But Ling'er thinks Wan'er is very interesting. We promised to be friends for life." Zhang Ling'er frowned and hesitated for a moment.
Gu Yan looked at the hopeless girl and shook his head: "Whatever you want."
Since it's all hopeless, further restrictions are useless.
Zhang Ling'er stared blankly at Gu Yanjing, not understanding what he meant.
"Master, let's go for a walk." Su Yiyou tugged at Gu Yanjing's sleeve. Although she was taller than him, she was as clingy as a child who hadn't been weaned.
Zhang Ling'er stared at this little action, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets. She pointed at Su Youyi, who had no memory of the action, but she received a smug little look in return from Su Youyi.
Zhang Ling'er: ... Damn it, I really want to kick him, even if I have to kneel again as punishment, I just want to vent my anger.
That's infuriating.
"Hmm, do you want to go play with Nan Wan'er or come with your teacher?" Gu Yanjing looked at the beautiful weather outside. It was nice to go for a walk.
Upon hearing this, Su Yiyou immediately glared fiercely at Zhang Ling'er, signaling her not to follow.
However, if she didn't follow along, she definitely wouldn't be Zhang Ling'er. The girl arrogantly raised her chin.
"Master, can you accompany Ling'er to pick up Wan'er and go out to play together?"
Little brat, let's see if she doesn't get angry and go back to her.
You're dreaming if you think you can be alone with your master.
"Master, they live far away, so they might have to take a detour." Su suppressed the urge to hit the woman and looked at Gu Yanjing with anticipation.
Then Gu Yanjing made a decision to go pick up Nan Wan'er first.
Su Youyi: ...Will all love disappear?
However, when the three of them arrived outside Nan Wan'er's courtyard, they found that the small, dilapidated courtyard was quite lively today. There were three layers of guards outside, a circle of guards at the gate, and there was movement inside.
"Master, shall we go in now?" Su deliberately avoided the guards' detection and stood in a corner.
"Can we get in quietly?"
Gu Yan thought for a moment.
"Yes, may I take Master inside?" Su Youyi nodded and reached out to hug Gu Yanjing.
As a result, Gu Yanjing coldly smiled and walked through the wall.
"This is asking if you can come in."
Su Yiyou's expression cracked.
No, wasn't his master a wandering ghost? How could he possibly possess immortal magic?
"Senior brother, I'll go in first and wait for you inside." Zhang Ling'er saw Gu Yan's surprised expression and followed him in. As she left, she gave Su Youyi a smug look.
Su Youyi: ...So he was the only normal person on this journey.
Suddenly I felt a little scared to go in; maybe the two people inside weren't normal people either.
A bird flew down from the sky and gently landed on Zhang Ling'er's shoulder.
"Your Majesty, the male lead has come to see Nan Wan'er," the bird said in human language.
Just as Zhang Ling'er was about to crush the little bird, she immediately covered her mouth nonchalantly, yawned, and then smiled as she patted the bird on her shoulder.
"Hmm." Gu Yan responded in surprise, thinking it was a pointless question.
The male protagonist was already confronting someone in the courtyard, and he still needed this thing to tip him off.
"Master, is this your bird?" Zhang Ling'er curiously poked Gu Congxin on her shoulder, almost knocking him off.
"Mm," Gu Yanjing replied.
Seeing that Gu Yanjing didn't seem to want to talk, Zhang Ling'er didn't bother him anymore and directly grabbed Gu Congxin in her hand: "What's your name?"
Gu Congxin flapped his wings but failed to fly out. He instantly realized that another father had arrived, and naturally gave up struggling.
"Gu Congxin".
"Oh, your name is Gu Song." Zhang Ling'er squeezed Gu Congxin's hand.
Gu Congxin pecked Zhang Ling'er's hand directly, his voice cold: "I told you, my name is Gu Congxin, given to me by His Majesty. Don't change my name randomly."
If Gu Yanjing or Lu Lingjun come along and bully him, that's one thing, but other demons and monsters shouldn't even think about getting the better of him.
After pecking, Gu Congxin flew directly onto Gu Yanjing's shoulder, not forgetting to glare at Zhang Ling'er.
Zhang Ling'er almost laughed out of anger.
This is the pet her master keeps, it's so silly.
They were invisible, so the people in the courtyard couldn't see them, and Su Youyi couldn't see them either. She could only lie on the roof, feeling wronged, waiting for Gu Yanjing and the others to appear on their own.
However, the situation in the courtyard was quite unexpected.
Mo Lanzhi came here to cause trouble today, without any intention of concealing his intentions. He surrounded the courtyard with his men in no time and then had Qingrong push him in.
He was sitting in a wheelchair, and although everyone around him was taller than him, his domineering attitude still made him seem like a father.
"**Mo Lanzhi greets the Divine Doctor.**" Mo Lanzhi was initially quite polite.
The principle of "courtesy before force" has existed since ancient times.
"If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out." Tuntian had just gotten up early in the morning and was planning to buy breakfast for Nan Wan'er when he saw this annoying thing. His tone wasn't very good.
"I have come seeking the divine physician for a reason. I wish to ask the divine physician to examine my illness." Mo Lanzhi's face darkened after being rebuked, but Qing Rong held his hand and calmed him down.
"I've heard that the divine physician has superb medical skills and a compassionate heart. Qingrong's medical skills are inadequate and cannot save Lanzhi. I beg the divine physician to take action." Qingrong stood behind Mo Lanzhi, pushing Mo Lanzhi's wheelchair, his expression sorrowful and very sad.
When Mo Lanzhi went to the Falling Flower Sect to investigate yesterday, his whereabouts were discovered by his own people. The Falling Flower Sect colluded with the Third Young Master Mo Yuxing and set up an ambush.
Although he escaped, he was cut by a poisoned sword.
That poison is extremely insidious; once you come into contact with it, the wound will fester and become difficult to heal, eventually causing the person to die from the pain.
Many people have been infected with this drug, but in the end, none of them survived and they took their own lives.
Qingrong's medical skills are actually quite good, but he couldn't cure this poison; he could only slightly control its toxicity.
Tuntian raised an eyebrow. That was easy to refuse; the excuses were readily available.
"You should know the rules of our Divine Healer Valley: if the injured person has been treated by other doctors, Divine Healer Valley will never take over the case."
In the original storyline, Qingrong, who was by Mo Lanzhi's side, first tried to treat Mo Lanzhi, but was powerless to do so. In the end, Nan Wan'er broke the rules of the Divine Doctor Valley and begged the Divine Doctor to save Mo Lanzhi.
Therefore, those who had been severely offended by the Divine Doctor Valley united and eventually destroyed it.
This is probably what it means to talk about love.
May their whole family die.
"Divine Physician, Qingrong is merely a maidservant by the young master's side, not a physician, and it does not violate the rules of Divine Physician Valley. Please, Divine Physician, have a compassionate heart and save my young master."
As if anticipating Tuntian's refusal, Qingrong stepped forward and knelt before Mo Lan.
Looking at the woman who seemed to be putting on an act, and then at the male lead who looked distressed, Tuntian couldn't help but laugh.
Is this the legendary scenario where the male lead goes blind and the female lead is blinded by greed?
"Not saving him would violate the rules of my Divine Healer Valley. You should all go back." Devouring Heaven shook his head coldly and turned to leave.
The two guards standing beside him raised their hands to stop him.
Mo Lanzhi's expression also turned cold: "I beg you, Divine Doctor, to reconsider. Even if not for your own sake, you should think of your beautiful apprentice."
"What do you mean?" Devouring Heaven sneered.
"This is the first time I've ever seen a master and disciple in love. It's against the natural order and morality. I wonder what others will think if they find out." Mo Lanzhi had a look on her face that said, "I'm doing this for your own good, but I'm also threatening you."
However, that look in his eyes was incredibly sly.
"Master, this person is so twisted! He has such good fortune, yet he still wants to bully my Wan'er. He simply doesn't know the meaning of death." Zhang Ling'er, who was watching the show from the side, resisted the urge to grab Gu Congxin and pluck his feathers, and instead made a sarcastic remark to distract herself.
"You don't like it? If you don't like it, go kill him." Gu Yanjing's answer was simple, but his gaze fell on Su Youyi on the roof.
Su Youyi was only twenty years old, and like a simpleton, she didn't even realize she was being discovered while lying on the roof, nor did she notice when someone approached.
Gu Yanjing couldn't stand it any longer and took action, instantly freezing all the guards outside with a burst of spiritual energy.
They're such a worry!
Zhang Ling'er: "I'm not going. That person is burdened with destiny. If I touch him, I'll definitely be punished by the Heavenly Dao. Master, are you listening to me? Master, my senior brother has already noticed. Do you think I'm okay?"
However, Gu Yanjing ignored her and instead turned his attention back to watching the show.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking? What do you have to do with your thoughts? My husband and I live our lives together. Why should I care about your opinions? Will you cut off a piece of my flesh or something if you scold me? You're just being nosy and making a fuss."
Nan Wan'er, half-asleep, was woken up by the noise. She threw on a coat, kicked open the door, and was in a terrible mood when she woke up.
"A bunch of trash. Is this how you beg for medical treatment? If you want to see a doctor, kneel at the door for a day first. Devouring Heaven, kick them out. This is so annoying. Don't you know that disturbing people's sleep will get you struck by lightning?"
Nan Wan'er came out cursing and swearing, still feeling unsatisfied. She had Tun Tian throw the person out, then circled the doorway three times like a madwoman with a dark face, extremely agitated. Finally, she angrily slammed the door shut and went back inside to continue sleeping.
Damn, he's still drunk and looks like he has kidney deficiency.
Looking at her, she's quite comparable to Zhang Ling'er.
However, Zhang Ling'er did nothing, but she might not have done so.
"Um, I don't think my girlfriends will be going out with us today." Zhang Ling'er glanced silently at Nan Wan'er, who was cursing and swearing, and then at Mo Lanzhi, who had actually been thrown out.
"Let's go, you go out first, I'll go get Su Youyi." Gu Yanjing nodded and put Gu Congxin off his shoulder.
"Go and find out where Mo Lanzhi is living now and what he's doing."
Gu Congxin accepted the order and flew away. Zhang Ling'er also turned to leave, but for some reason, the first time she tried to use her magic to pass through the wall, she failed.
She thought she had drunk too much and her hands were shaking, so she bumped her head against the wall again and got a big bump on her head.
The pain brought tears to her eyes instantly.
When she looked up again, she saw her master carrying Su Youyi away.
Zhang Ling'er: ......
Damn.
It was quite strenuous for Gu Yanjing to carry someone taller than herself, and they landed on the ground after flying only a short distance.
But the person in his arms refused to let go, as if he were helpless.
"Master."
"Let go before you speak." Gu Yanjing gently pulled the head out of his arms.
It's like holding a dog's head in your arms; you want to smash it to pieces any minute.
"Master, I had a dream last night." Su Yiyou refused to move and continued to lie in Gu Yanjing's arms, not even knowing how her back had become so bent.
"Had a wet dream?" Gu Yanjing asked calmly.
“Yes, I dreamt of Master. Master looks so handsome in red.” Su Youyi’s eyes were deep as she snuggled against Gu Yanjing. “Master looks even better when he’s not wearing clothes.”
He had a dream last night; he dreamt of another world, of another version of himself.
He saw himself and Gu Yanjing grow up together, get married, and even have passionate affairs.
Was that his past life? Did they have a predestined relationship in a past life?
"If you don't want these eyes anymore, I don't mind digging them out for you." Gu Yanjing's face turned cold, and he placed his hand on Su Youyi's head, applying slight pressure.
Su Yiyou gave a muffled groan: "Vermilion Bird."
Gu Yan's hand froze in surprise as Su Youyi easily grasped it.
"Zhuque, I'm here. I'm Lingjun." Su Youyi stood up straight, hugged Gu Yanjing in his arms, held Gu Yanjing's hand, and kissed it.
Qing* had gentle features, neither arrogant nor impatient, like ice jade that had been refined and settled, calm and composed.
"You shouldn't be like him." Gu Yan stepped back in surprise, pushing Su Youyi away.
Su Youyi's face turned ugly in an instant.
Was he mistaken?
He wasn't the reincarnation of the person in my dream; he was just a substitute.
"You probably only saw the first part and didn't see what happened later. If you had seen it, you wouldn't have followed his example." Gu Yanjing looked at Su Youyi's ugly face and slapped him.
He remembered everything Lu Lingjun had done back then, but he never mentioned it. It was like an archive; bringing it up would only result in a beating.
Alright, since the main body isn't here, let's use a clone to take the hits.
