Chapter 258 How can he compare



Instead of taking a detour, we went directly to the back mountain.

Fortunately, Gu Xingyun remembered the locations of those barriers, so he didn't go wrong and cause unnecessary harm.

After being away for a few days, the bamboo bed in the yard was covered with dust because no one had cleaned it.

Gu Xingyun cleaned and tidied up the place immediately and went to the kitchen to boil some hot water.

When I went out, I didn't forget to pick up the long stick next to me and poke the flowers that I had moved over to make sure they were growing healthily before I felt relieved.

Yan Huailiu had thought he would meet Baili Changhuan here, and he had even prepared a special excuse.

But after searching everywhere, there was no sign of my junior brother.

He went to the study specifically to take a look. The letter he had left there had disappeared. Under the inkstone lay a thin piece of paper with two large characters written in a flamboyant style on it: Get out.

It can be seen that the junior brother was very angry at that time.

Yan Huailiu shook his head helplessly, and there were several noises coming from outside.

When he turned around, he saw Gu Xingyun standing there with a bucket and a hoe.

Their eyes met, and Gu Xingyun pointed outside: "Master, I'm going to move those fruit seedlings. I'll be back soon. There are some washed fruits on the table. Master, you can eat them first."

"Okay, be careful." Yan Huailiu instructed and watched him walk out.

As he watched the figure disappear, his smile faded.

The flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom. Yan Huailiu squatted there and watched them for a long time: "I really can't bear to let them go."

They have already regarded this place as their home and have the family they dream of.

He has become accustomed to the life here and even wanted to stay here forever.

What a pity.

Maybe, this is fate.

People have to believe in fate.

You can’t force things that are not destined to be yours.

He stood up on his knees, as if to comfort himself: "I still want to believe that he liked me."

In the corner of the kitchen, there was the peach blossom wine that both Gu Xingyun and he liked. Yan Huailiu took out a bottle of medicine from the bag, shook it twice, and poured it into the wine with an expressionless face.

"If it's completely dissolved, it should take half a day, which is not bad."

Yan Huailiu pushed the wine in, his brows drooped, and his hands felt inexplicably numb.

"It's better to avoid my junior brothers...to save trouble."

The more uncomfortable you feel, the more rationally you can analyze things.

He took a deep breath, stepped on Wen Yue and flew into the air, looking for Gu Xingyun's location and flew over quickly.

Gu Xingyun shoveled the fruit seedlings in front of him in an extremely awkward posture. It took him such a long time to put only two seedlings in the bucket.

"Xingyun, I'm going to go get some clothes and I'll be back soon. Is there anything you need me to bring?"

Gu Xingyun looked up at him and said, "No, what would you like to eat for lunch, Master?"

"Come back and talk about it. It's about to fall, don't let it hit you." Yan Huailiu reminded with a smile, then stepped on Wen Yue and left quickly.

After returning to the residence, he left instructions in places where they might be noticed as quickly as possible, then took out a bunch of magic herbs from the secret room and headed to Canghai Pavilion.

"Lu Jiu, these are for you. See if you can fill in the empty grids."

As soon as he entered the door, he went straight to Lu Jiu's seat and a pile of fairy grass fell on the table.

Lu Jiu blinked twice: "That should be enough, Sect Master, we won't need so much."

I am so touched that the Sect Master still remembers these things.

"Keep it. Also, put this map I borrowed from you back."

After Yan Huailiu returned the things, he asked again, "Have you seen your Uncle Baili?"

"Master Baili? Hmm... I saw him a few days ago. He should still be at his Wuya Peak. What does the Sect Master want to see Master Baili about?"

"Nothing, just asking. You continue with your work. I'm leaving first."

Yan Huailiu said goodbye with a smile, and when he reached the door, he turned back and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

This is also a good boy, guarding Canghai Pavilion diligently.

He stood in the light. Lu Jiu couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but he still waved happily: "It's not hard. This is what I should do. Thank you, Sect Master."

Since there was not much time, Yan Huailiu went straight to the residences of several disciples.

After looking around, he still couldn't find Chang Sui, so he could only push the door and enter Gu Xingyun's room.

No matter when you look at it, the room is very simple, but clean and tidy.

Yan Huailiu walked around and touched the tables and chairs, trying to feel the traces of Gu Xingyun's growth from these things.

The cabinet pull ring must have rusted and been re-polished, so the color is a bit dark.

Yan Huailiu gently opened it, wanting to put the unsent-out mental method in the cabinet.

As soon as I opened the cabinet door, my eyes were attracted by a white cloak.

His sight shifted, and he saw a shriveled fruit whose original shape could not be seen. The talisman on it to preserve its freshness seemed to be the same one he usually used.

There are a bunch of strange things placed next to it.

Cakes placed on the handkerchief, a handful of strangely colored soil, a familiar-looking bell, two unfinished pieces of bloody talisman paper...

All kinds of small things filled up the entire floor.

Yan Huailiu looked at it for a long time but couldn't guess what these were.

"This... looks really familiar."

He picked up the cloak, and the moment he unfolded it, related memories came flooding back.

"I think so. I wore it when I first arrived, and then... I gave it to Gu Xingyun."

That rainy night, the apprentice was shivering with cold. He had just arrived and was scared to death.

After much difficulty, he tied the cloak around his apprentice and then fled in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xingyun still kept it.

Yan Huailiu shook it twice, trying to fold it up again, but accidentally shook out a bunch of things.

He bent down to pick it up, but when he saw what was on the ground, his movements froze completely.

After a long time, he slowly squatted down with his cloak in his arms and picked up the broken wood bit by bit.

It was the wooden sword that the original body had given to Gu Xingyun, but he broke it when he was angry.

Instead of putting the pile of broken wood back, he put it on the table.

He went out for a walk and came back with a bunch of things in his hands. He sat in front of the table and silently pieced together the pile of broken wood bit by bit.

He had no extra materials, so he could only use a relatively crude method to recondition the wooden sword.

He cut his palm again and whispered, "I'm sorry. I'll drink some blood tonic later to make up for it."

I don't know who he was talking to, but there was obvious grievance in his voice.

The emotions that had been suppressed for so long could no longer be suppressed when I saw this pile of broken wood.

Even if he tried his best to restrain himself, there would still be a voice in his head telling him that all the things he gave him combined were not as good as this wooden sword.

Even though it was broken into pieces, Gu Xingyun still carefully picked it up and hid it in the cabinet for safekeeping.

How does he compare?

When he left, he only took the cloak with him. The wooden sword on the table was still being warmed. Yan Huailiu slowly locked the door.

I returned to my residence in frustration and stood outside the yard to adjust my mood.

Suddenly, the sound of two people talking could be heard from inside, and his junior brother's signature cursing tone was unmistakable.

"What do you mean? You want me to cheat him with you?"

Yan Huailiu held his breath.
