【042】 Gu Juan’s Weakness (1)
Gu Juan's eyes glared, and he turned around to look around the living room. Just now, he had a feeling that something was staring at him, but it disappeared in an instant, like an optical illusion.
"What are your plans for the afternoon?" Xi Lang asked Han Lin.
Han Lin looked out the window. "The original plan was a jungle CS battle. But with this weather..."
Fortunately, after dinner, the sky cleared up again, the sun shining brightly, and there was no cloud in the sky. Gu Juan and his companions rested for more than half an hour and changed into the field uniforms provided by the farm.
Xi Lang was unwilling to change his clothes. Gu Juan then realized that he had a mysophobia for clothes and would not wear clothes that had been worn by others.
Cao Jie was actually well prepared. He went to his room and took out a set of unopened field uniforms.
Gu Juan glanced at him strangely, then glanced at Xi Lang expressionlessly. Xi Lang declined Cao Jie's offer, and he was in a good mood.
Xi Lang caught a glimpse of the corner of his mouth curled up, smiled and shook his head.
So, Xi Lang was the only one wearing his original clothes. It didn't really matter. The group had a great time on the mountain, not leaving until the sun went down and the temperature dropped.
After resting in the room for a while, a few people went to the water KTV to sing, and then went to participate in the barbecue party at around six o'clock. They returned home with great fun until almost ten o'clock.
"Go to bed early and go hiking early tomorrow morning," said Han Lin.
Back in the room, Gu Juan asked Xi Lang to take a shower first. His original words were that it was not easy for Xi Lang, at his age, to have such fun all day.
Xi Lang had been laughed at by him so many times that his "calmness skill" had reached the ninth level. He took out his pajamas without changing his expression and went to take a shower first.
After he finished washing, Gu Juan took over the washing.
He hadn't noticed it before, but once they'd both washed up and were ready for bed, Gu Juan suddenly felt awkward. The bed wasn't actually small, a 2m by 2m large bed, plenty spacious even for two grown men. But except for sleeping with his parents until he was five, he'd never shared a bed with anyone else.
"How about I sleep on the sofa?"
Xi Lang's facial muscles suddenly stiffened. He glanced at him, picked up a pillow, walked over to the sofa, and said calmly, "You sleep on the bed."
Gu Juan was sure that he was unhappy, so she held him back and said, "That's not what I meant. Don't you even wear clothes that have been worn by others? I was worried that you wouldn't be used to sleeping with me."
"You've worn my coat, but I've been wearing that dress all the time," Xi Lang retorted.
Gu Juan looked at him steadily for a moment, took the pillow from his hand and put it back on the bedside, "It's late, go to bed."
"I sleep well, you don't have to worry." Xi Lang said.
Gu Juan emphasized, "I sleep well too, you can rest assured."
The two smiled at each other, lay down on the bed and turned off the lights.
Xi Lang was indeed tired and fell asleep quickly. His sleeping posture was just like his body, lying upright on his half of the bed.
Gu Juan, completely sleepless, propped up his upper body to admire his sleeping form for a moment before returning to bed. Thinking of the treasure he had just acquired, he felt incredibly happy. He had always wanted to give Xi Lang a talisman, but after refining several, he was never satisfied. This piece of Jade Spirit Jade appeared at the perfect time. All he had to do was replenish its spiritual energy and carve a spirit gathering array into it. But he hadn't found the opportunity today.
Beside him, Xi Lang suddenly stirred, as if having a nightmare. His brows knitted together, a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. His hands moved haphazardly under the quilt, and suddenly he grasped Gu Juan's hand. He sighed softly, his brows relaxed, and he fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Juan gave up the idea of dealing with the Jade Spirit Jade and let him hold it. She looked at his profile, her eyelids gradually closing...
In the darkness, the temperature inside suddenly dropped below zero degrees Celsius, and a chilling atmosphere filled the room. A sharp murderous aura suddenly emerged, shooting towards the bed like an arrow from a bow.
Gu Juan suddenly opened his eyes, seemingly wide awake. His gaze fixed on the dark figure within the room, a sharp gleam blazing from them. With a flick of his right hand, he transformed his energy into a blade, breaking the opponent's attack. With a casual flick of his left hand, a switch clicked softly, and the room was filled with light.
"Gu Haojie!"
Gu Haojie was shrouded in black mist, half suspended in mid-air. His eyes would suddenly fixate on Gu Juan, their sharpness evident, then suddenly lose focus, becoming hazy. He let out a chilling laugh, and without a word, he launched his palms forward.
The situation was about to break out. Gu Juan didn't notice that Xi Lang woke up almost at the same time as him. Seeing this scene, his face changed drastically and he jumped up, "Xiao Juan, be careful!"
Xi Lang's awakening made Gu Juan extremely nervous. He shouted, "Don't come over here!" He shot out, clenching his fists and swinging them violently, hitting Gu Haojie's wrists like two heavy hammers. The sound of two bones breaking was very clear in the darkness. Both of Gu Haojie's wrists were broken.
"You...die!" Gu Haojie's voice was that of a completely unfamiliar man, deep, hoarse, and eerie. His expression was frozen, and even his face was covered in a black mist. From nowhere, more thick mist emerged, forming the shape of two hands. Their fingers, like eagle claws, clutched at Gu Juan with a chilling chill as if plucked from hell.
Xi Lang dodged and attacked Gu Haojie from behind.
Gu Juan's heart nearly jumped out of his throat, feeling both moved and helpless. "Old man, please step back quickly. I can handle it!"
Xi Lang said in a deep voice: "I'll hold him back, and you call the police!"
"No, get back off!" Gu Juan was extremely anxious. Seeing the black claw narrowly brushing past Xi Lang's chest, he flew into a rage and kicked Gu Haojie in the chest, blocking Xi Lang.
Gu Haojie slammed into the wall, a heart-wrenching cough erupting from his mouth. He glanced at Xi Lang, his eyes swirling as more black mist emerged, his attacks accelerating. But Gu Juan remained resilient and subdued him once again.
Xi Lang saw that Gu Juan was indeed an extraordinary person. Although he was unwilling, in order to prevent Gu Juan from being distracted by him, he had no choice but to step aside and nervously pay attention to the changes in the situation.
Seeing this, Gu Juan felt relieved. However, he did not expect that Gu Haojie would be so cunning. He suddenly released a wisp of black mist, which rushed towards Xi Lang at lightning speed like a poisonous snake.
Gu Juan was terrified and rushed over, "Old man, be careful!"
But the speed of the black mist was too fast. He watched helplessly as the black snake bit Xi Lang's chest. Shocked and terrified, he shouted loudly, turned around and pierced Gu Haojie's chest with his palm. He jumped up and caught Xi Lang who fell backwards, and said in panic: "Xi Lang!"
"I... am fine..." Xi Lang felt a sharp pain in his chest, which spread throughout his body. He forced out a weak smile and fainted.
"Xi Lang!" Gu Juan was horrified and his face turned pale.
Gu Haojie's eyes cleared up. He looked down at the bloody hole on his chest. He covered it with his hand and spat out a mouthful of blood, but he kept laughing. "Gu Juan, you have a weakness, and he is your weakness! Hahahaha, hahahahahahaha..."
A gust of wind blew, and he disappeared from the spot, as if he had never appeared.
"Bang!" The door was kicked open, and Han Lin, Zhang Muheng, Li Ruicheng and Cao Jie rushed in all in pajamas.
Zhao Keke and Tong Na huddled outside the door in fear, only daring to stick their heads out.
Zhang Muheng asked: "What happened?"
Cao Jie saw Xi Lang lying in Gu Juan's arms, his face black and unconscious. He was shocked and rushed over, "Third brother, what's wrong with you?"
