Chapter 84
The place where Gu Shuo took Gao Ruhan was where he lived before he moved next door to Su Xuan and the others.
And at this moment, they are in this apartment.
After listening to the entire story, Su Xuan murmured, "My... heart?"
His heart was beating evenly and regularly in the left side of his chest.
Su Xuan had never felt anything unusual with his heart - until this moment, when his heart beat heavily with a "boom".
Su Xuan's expression tightened and he subconsciously covered his left chest.
When the body is reborn, everything will be reshaped to its original state, except for the heart - after all, this is the most important part of a generation of monsters besides the soul core. If it is lost, it is lost. What happened when the body was destroyed will also happen when the body is reshaped.
And if his soul core shattered, leaving only half of his heart, with the other half sustained by spiritual power, then...
Su Xuan looked at Gu Shuo uncertainly, his Adam's apple rolling.
Gu Shuo reached out and gently placed his hand on the back.
When their eyes met, their minds connected, and their spiritual powers merged into one stream, slowly penetrating into Su Xuan's left chest cavity.
The heart was beating, and when Chuyi touched it, it felt like an ordinary heart.
However, if you really touch and feel it, you can clearly feel it——
Su Xuan trembled slightly.
Half of it is indeed an illusion made of spiritual power.
——Although he was mentally prepared, when he really confirmed this, Gu Shuo's eyes still darkened, and Su Xuan was also a little frightened.
How could this happen? Is there really only half a heart left?
He had never discovered...
But Su Xuan had never felt that there was anything wrong with him, so it was impossible for him to check his heart carefully for no reason.
At this moment, Su Xuan could still clearly feel that the spiritual power that shaped the half of his lost heart did not belong to him, nor to Asuo.
What is going on? What happened in the first place? Who is Gao Ruhan? How did he take away half of his heart? Who forged a heart for him?
There were too many questions in Su Xuan's head at once. He was a little dazed and confused, and sweat was seeping out unconsciously.
The next second, he was embraced by Gu Shuo.
This hug interrupted Su Xuan's confused thoughts and calmed him down immediately.
Gu Shuo said hoarsely, "Ah Xuan, I'm going to put that half of my heart into your body right now, okay?"
Su Xuan swallowed and looked up at Gu Shuo.
Gu Shuo gently stroked his cheek and said slowly, "Your beast soul has awakened long ago, and your strength has almost recovered, but your memory has not yet awakened. This is probably because you lost half of your heart."
Su Xuan was stunned, then thought for a moment, pursed his lips and nodded.
Although he was not in a hurry to recover his lost memories before, he had wondered why memory returned more slowly than spiritual power.
But now that I think about it, it's probably because something is missing from his body...
And if this is true, then getting back this half of the heart means—
"Ah Xuan, your memory will come back." Gu Shuo said softly.
Su Xuan took a deep breath, clenched his hands, and his heart beat faster.
memory.
A memory they both had been searching for for so long.
Not to mention, although Su Xuan appeared very calm when he talked about this matter before, he was still a little nervous when it came to the end.
After all, that's decades of information.
Su Xuan slowly exhaled, calmed himself down, and asked, "You've remembered everything, haven't you?"
Gu Shuo's eyes were a little complicated.
"……Um."
"Is your head hurting so much because your memory has returned?" Su Xuan touched Gu Shuo's forehead and asked in a low voice.
"Well," Gu Shuo stared at him and said hoarsely, "But it's okay now, Xuan."
Now, he is not the most important thing.
Hearing this, Su Xuan held Gu Shuo's hand tightly.
He used his spiritual power to check Gu Shuo's body, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was nothing serious.
Afterwards, Su Xuan calmed down and his eyes became firm: "Okay, then put that half heart in."
A lot of things must have happened in the past, otherwise Ah Shuo wouldn't have this expression.
But his thoughts have not changed. Ah Shuo must have understood his wishes, which is why he appeared in front of him at this moment. This is something that the two of them can confirm to each other without having to say it out loud after they have understood each other's minds.
The lost memories must be recovered. Ah Shuo has already remembered them, so he can’t fall behind!
Gu Shuo looked at Su Xuan steadily, with complex emotions swirling in his eyes.
He once tried to cover up the unknown past that was shrouded in dark clouds and only present the good things to Su Xuan.
Yet the young man told him again and again firmly that he hoped the two of them could walk side by side.
Gu Shuo loves Su Xuan deeply, and he will never go against any of Su Xuan's wishes again.
Therefore, even though he clearly recalled what Su Xuan had experienced more than a thousand years ago, and how much he hoped that the young man would not recall that painful moment, he still returned here - returned to Su Xuan's front.
Gu Shuo hugged Su Xuan, lowered his eyes, and gently stroked the back of Su Xuan's head, over and over again.
He whispered, "Then, Xuan, get ready."
Su Xuan nodded vigorously and closed his eyes.
——Gu Shuo didn’t waste any more time talking to Gao Ruhan. After taking out half of the heart, he left and left Gao Ruhan inside the barrier.
Gao Ruhan is a very ambitious and crazy man. He must have intended to use half of the heart of a generation of monster to transform himself, but he didn't know how to do it, so Su Xuan's half heart was still kept safely in his body without any damage.
After Gu Shuo took out half of the heart, he also used his spiritual power to seal it in a small barrier and preserved it.
At this moment, he used his spiritual power to cut open Su Xuan's chest, put half of his heart in, and then healed everything back to its original state.
Su Xuan groaned, and in an instant he tightly grasped Gu Shuo's arm, his face pale.
Gu Shuo hugged him and quickly wrapped Su Xuan up with his spiritual power, as if putting him in a nutrient chamber, helping him to survive the sudden change.
Su Xuan's heart began to beat violently, his mind went blank, and then -
He fell into an illusion.
There was a thin layer of mist all around him. A breeze came from somewhere and dispersed the mist slightly. Then, many pictures appeared in front of Su Xuan.
*
More than a thousand years ago.
"Ah Xuan, why did you come back at dawn? I almost flew out to find you!" As soon as Su Xuan returned to the teahouse, a crow flew over and cawed.
Su Xuan was timid and looked a little cunning, as if he had done something bad.
Su Amei, the Su family member who brought him to the capital, came to the capital to live with her elder sister whom she had not seen for more than 20 years. Although the two sisters had not seen each other for many years, the elder sister was as caring towards Su Amei as before, and she even called Su Xuan, her nephew whom she had only seen in letters, "Axuan" affectionately.
"Zhen'er" is actually the real name of Su Amei's deceased son. However, Su Amei also told her sister that she no longer has a husband, and from now on her son should take her surname and be called by the name she gave him.
Sister Su agreed with this approach very much, and was also pleased that her sister could still live so energetically after experiencing all the things in the past. Without saying a word, she handed over the teahouse under her name to Su Amei to run.
If Su Amei had not declined, Sister Su would even hope that the mother and daughter could live in her house - but would that cause more trouble for her married sister?
So Amei Su took Su Xuan to live in this teahouse.
Later, Su Xuan accidentally met this crow in this huge capital city - a first-generation crow, and they became good friends.
So this pig took advantage of the situation and became Su Amei's godson, Su Xuan's godson, and the energetic waiter in the teahouse.
Last night, Su Xuan went out despite the curfew to help a regular customer of the teahouse solve a "small problem". This is actually what he and A Tu often do - regular customers must be taken care of and helped to solve any difficulties. Once the problems are solved, the customer will be in a good mood, and will be happy to continue to take care of the business, right?
In the past, Su Xuan and A Tu would usually come back after an hour or two. No one expected that this time Su Xuan would not return until dawn.
They did all these things without telling Su Amei, for fear that she would worry. If Su Xuan didn't come back, Su Amei would wake up - and A Tu would be panicked!
And what about Su Xuan?
His face was actually rosy and he looked a little absent-minded.
Ah Tu waved his wings and hit Su Xuan on the head, saying speechlessly: "You must have been visiting a brothel!"
"I didn't!" Su Xuan widened his eyes, covered his head and looked wronged.
"Then why do you look so full of spring?!"
Spring is in the air?!
Su Xuan's face turned even redder, a little embarrassed and a little unconvinced. He curled his lips and lowered his voice, "Last night's incident accidentally caused too much trouble, and I was arrested by the Night Guard!"
A-Tu was immediately frightened.
Who are the Night Guards? They are the recognized enemies of these "nameless" little demons!
However, Su Xuan was not afraid at all, nor did he have the slightest lingering fear.
Instead, he said in a daze, "Guess who the Night Guard leader is?"
Ah Tu covered his chest with his wings and trembled as he said, "...Who?"
"It's Gu Lanyu!" Su Xuan's face flushed with excitement, "It's actually Gu Lanyu!"
Although Gu Lanyu's smile that was as refreshing as spring breeze had made Su Xuan instinctively alert like a small animal during the confrontation in the hall last night, when he thought of that man again, Su Xuan still felt a little elated.
Ah Tu was stunned and said in shock: "...He is the leader of the Night Guard?!"
After coming to his senses, Ah Tu asked again foolishly: "So, he knows you are a monster?"
Su Xuan blinked: "No, I didn't admit it."
Ah Tu: “…He believed it?”
Su Xuan: "Since he let me go, that means he believes it, right?"
When the daylight reached its peak and the teahouse opened, amidst the morning drums, Gu Sanlang, a handsome and elegant man in white, stood in front of the teahouse with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face. Ah Tu said in despair, "Su Xuan, I really didn't believe you!"
