In the early morning, the sun, which had been hiding all night, finally struggled to rise from the horizon.
Mottled sunlight shone in through the windows, falling on the jade-like floor, illuminating the room.
Gao Han was still asleep when he was awakened by a burst of pleasure.
He opened his eyes and found someone hiding under the quilt, lying on top of him.
It was the culprit who caused him to wake up.
Gao Han tried to suppress the pleasure and wanted to kick someone away, but that person seemed to have anticipated his action and pressed his legs tightly.
"Isn't it enough for you to do it for two days?"
Gao Han hit it with a hammer, and a muffled groaning sound came from under the quilt.
When they reach this level, sleep is no longer a physiological need. They can go without sleep for several years or even more than ten years without any problem.
If the drama queen hadn't pestered him to practice dual cultivation, and hadn't tormented him for a long time after practicing dual cultivation, he wouldn't have been so tired that he fell asleep.
He had originally planned to meet up with other acquaintances before classes next weekend, but now he has wasted three days.
Zhongli Tingzhou poked his wet head out from under the quilt, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, "My lifelong wish is to be a clerk for one year..."
With a plop.
He was kicked out of bed.
This time there was no time to react.
One year?
It's impossible to last for a month, let alone a year.
The drama queen likes to have wild ideas. Gao Han quickly got out of bed, picked up the clothes on the ground, wiped them, and walked into the bathroom.
Zhongli Tingzhou wanted to follow, but was blocked outside by a door.
He pulled the door handle and found it wouldn't open.
"Do you have to be like this?" Zhongli Tingzhou was speechless and actually cast a barrier on the door.
Gao Han in the bathroom ignored him. The culprit had the nerve to say this.
After a while, he came out clean.
He was naked before going in, and was fully dressed when coming out.
"I just like the way you are abstinent outside the bed but coquettish in bed." Zhongli Tingzhou whistled fearlessly.
Gao Han glanced over sideways. Ever since he got together with him, this guy has been constantly breaking new ground.
His endurance was therefore tested time and again. Every time he thought he had become strong and tough, he would later feel that he was too young. He always underestimated the thick-skinned people of acting.
"Go take a shower. You have no shame, but I still have some." Gao Han picked up the clothes on the ground and threw them over.
Zhongli Tingzhou was a little disgusted, "It's all rotten."
"That's not as bad as what you have inside. If you don't go, I'll leave on my own." Gao Han hit back.
In the bathroom, the smell was dispersed a lot by the water, but as soon as he came out, he smelled a strong and lustful smell in the room.
If they don't take a shower and go out, everyone will know what they did in the room.
Although he hadn't left the room for two days and two nights, and people outside had already made all the associations they wanted, he still wanted one last fig leaf.
Gao Han's threat worked. Zhongli Tingzhou quickly took a combat shower, walked out naked, and put on his clothes in front of him.
"Where are we going today?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked after he finished dressing.
Gao Han saw that he was dressed in a mess, with the three buttons on his chest unbuttoned, and his entire chest was almost exposed. But even though he knew he did it on purpose, he just resigned himself to his fate and went forward to help him tidy up his clothes.
"Can't you just put on your clothes properly?"
"You help me dress every day, so shouldn't I dress well?" Zhongli Tingzhou argued.
"That's nonsense." After Gao Han helped him button up three buttons, he deliberately stuffed all his clothes into his pants and pulled them out.
When Gao Han was done, Zhongli Tingzhou happily hugged him and left the room.
It's still early now. The sun has come out and it's just after seven o'clock.
Some people in Zhongli's family were already at their posts, while others were still eating breakfast.
The first one who saw them coming down suddenly gave a violent cough.
Soon, other people started coughing too.
A symphony of coughs sounded in the restaurant in a very gorgeous way.
"You all have pharyngitis so early in the morning?" Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at them.
The strep throat disappeared instantly.
"Uncle, Uncle Gao, you finally came down." Zhongli Changze said a little embarrassedly, and was kicked by his wife under the table.
Why are you still talking about whether to come down or not at this time?
Zhongli Changqing's wife immediately stood up and said, "I'll go ask the kitchen to serve you breakfast."
"No need." Gao Han stopped her from walking out, "We have already passed the stage of eating. It's okay not to eat for a few years."
"Can't eat for a few years? That's such a pity, there are so many delicious foods." Zhongli Changze's son resisted, "Then I don't want to practice anymore."
This was obviously not the first time he had said this, and Zhongli Changze put down his chopsticks with a snap.
Just as I was about to scold him, Gao Han spoke.
"Practicing can reduce the cycle of birth, aging, illness and death. If you don't practice, your life span will only be a short hundred years. Your brother and sister can live for a thousand years, or even ten thousand years. When they are still young, you will be old, your teeth will have fallen out, and you will not be able to bite anything. But your brother and sister can eat any delicious food they want, and you can only watch helplessly without being able to eat anything."
Zhongli Changze's son immediately changed his mind and said to his father, "Dad, I want to practice!"
Zhongli Changze and his wife were stunned.
Their son really didn't like to practice. They had told him many times before, but every time they asked him to practice, he looked like he was dying and would even just act like a spoiled child.
It's no use tempting him with his favorite food, this little guy is very smart, sometimes he will deliberately agree, but in fact he is just trying to be clever.
Only his father, uncle, and old man could control him, but the little guy didn't like cultivation from the bottom of his heart and regarded cultivation as a bargaining chip.
The couple was really troubled, but they didn't expect that Gao Han's intervention would make him change his mind.
"If a child likes to eat, you should prescribe the right medicine, but don't let him think that he can get benefits from you by practicing for one day. You are just pushing him forward with coercion and inducement. He doesn't really want to do this. Children who have no faith in their hearts will have a temper that is fickle. If they don't want to do it one day, they will give up at any time." Gao Han has no children, but he understands this principle because he went through this when he was a child.
"Thank you, Uncle Gao." Zhongli Changze and his wife expressed their sincere gratitude.
"You're welcome. The old man and the others understand. They didn't say anything because they wanted to see how you would handle it. After all, the children are your own. You still have to educate them. This is also one of the ways to narrow the distance between you and the children. However, when educating children, if you can reason with them, do so as much as possible, and avoid beating or scolding them."
Zhongli Changze and his wife felt ashamed after hearing this. Sometimes when they saw their son being naughty and not listening to them, they really wanted to beat him up.
"Thank you, Uncle Gao. We will remember this in the future."
Zhongli Changze's son looked at Gao Han with admiration, his eyes like black grapes sparkling. Apart from his grandfather and great-grandfather, he had never seen anyone who could "train" his parents to be so obedient.
Gao Han rubbed the child's head. The soft hair was very comfortable to touch.
"Listen to your parents. From now on, your uncle will not only teach you how to practice, but also tell you where to eat a lot of delicious food. There is a world that is very big. Even if you search for many years, you will never be able to eat all the delicious food."
The little guy's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Gao Han nodded: "I won't lie to you."
The little guy immediately stretched out a short and fat finger and said, "Let's make a pinky promise."
Gao Han made a pinky promise with him.
The brother and sister were also very envious, especially the sister, who looked like she was about to cry, but dared not speak.
"You too, if you are as obedient as him, you will have everything he has." How could Gao Han not see the expressions of these two little guys.
"Thank you, aunt." My brother was very happy.
My sister also stopped crying and laughed.
Except for the happy voices of the children, the atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became quiet.
Gao Han looked at Zhongli Changqing and his wife, and they immediately lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Children always follow suit, so they must have often called their parents "auntie" in front of the children.
钟离庭洲的笑容却灿烂得不行，“不错，不过称谓错了，你爸妈叫高叔叔小婶，你们应该叫婶……嘶。”
后面那个字还没说出来，他就痛得发出抽气声，以前下手都没这么狠！
“你们继续吃，我们先走了。”高寒皮笑肉不笑地说道，转身就走。
钟离庭洲见他生气了，连忙追上去。
“等等我啊。”
餐厅里，钟离长青夫妇齐齐松了一口气，差点就喘不过气了，小婶面无表情的样子，真的好可怕。
钟离长青的老婆还好，钟离长青感觉就像见到当年的小叔一样，不说话的时候，都能产生一股叫人无法呼吸的压迫感。
“嘿嘿，小婶很快就会成为钟离家真正的一员，你们以后这嘴巴可得把严一点了。”钟离长泽幸灾乐祸，看他的好戏可没那么容易。
钟离长青白了他一眼，“说得好像你没有当着大白的面叫过一样。”
大白即他家小孩的小名。
钟离长青的老婆感慨道：“不过挺意外的，小婶都没有过带孩子的经验，居然比我们还会教小孩。”
“是啊，我也挺意外的，小婶外表那么淡漠的人，心思居然这么细腻。”钟离长泽感叹道。
“现在长泽他们肯定以为你很会带小孩，要是他们知道你带出来的富贵是什么德性，估计就不这么想了。”外头，钟离庭洲正在笑话高寒。
高寒瞥了他一眼，“富贵是什么德性，那也是你儿子，他再差，也有你的一份功劳。”
“行，你高兴就好。”刚刚在里面差点惹他生气，钟离庭洲这会决定让着他。
高寒一听就知道他在敷衍，也懒得跟他掰扯。
某人才是真的没有自知之明，富贵有样学样的德性，到底是跟谁学的？
在窜了一些熟人的门子后，转眼就来到周末。
高寒正准备去上课，突然收到孔院长发来的消息。
有一个灾区突然发生意外的情况，有一些导师已经急忙赶过去，所以这两天没办法上课了。
高寒连忙追问发生了什么突发意外情况，还有该灾区的位置在哪里。
孔院长过了两分钟才回复他。
“q国不知道怎么做到的，与深海的鲨鱼群私底下达成了什么协议，袭击了我们的防线，我们担心是不是海洋一族发生了什么变故，如果你没其他事的话，去找下鲛人王，问问是什么情况，如果能兵不血刃的话，对我们都好。”
高寒不疑有他，立刻离开蓬莱学院，路上还给钟离庭洲发短信，又询问钟离二哥现在的情况。
钟离二哥还没回，钟离庭洲回复得倒是比较快。
只是看到内容，高寒眉头就皱了起来。
“我现在有点事走不开，你先过去，我过一会就去找你。”
这种情况下，他还能有什么事要忙？
不过他担心灾区那边的情况，所以没有细想。
想起上次在哪里见到鲛人王，定位之后，便直接跨过空间裂缝去找他。
鲛人王住在深海一处最纯净的海域里，在海洋很深很深的地方，那里有一座在深海里还会发光的宫殿。
高寒到的时候，深海只余死寂。
一点光线也没有，也没有一点声音发出来。
附近的鱼群，也都不见了。
鲛人王不在这里？
难道他也发现灾区的情况，所以先他一步过去查看情况了？
孔院长说的鲨鱼群，高寒之所以没有怀疑，是因为当年鲨鱼一族确实背叛了鲛人王，投靠了沧龙，与鲛人王和人类作对。
这时，钟离二哥终于回复他了。
“我们在青市，你先过来，到了再跟你说。”
看到青市，高寒愣了一下。
居然是在青市，他还以为是哪座海岛出了事。
不过青市是沿海城市，而且靠近许多填海造陆的沿海城镇，后来地球的变异被他们阻止，这些城镇也重新出现了退化，大部分都变回原来的海域。
青市的城郊也直接由城镇变成了海域，真要有海洋族来犯，好像也挺正常的，就是关q国什么事？还是说q国只是在暗中使坏，鲨鱼群才是行动方？
高寒带着重重疑惑赶到青市，前后不过几分钟，他就走出空间裂缝，来到青市的城郊。
他在这座城市住的时间并不长，对青市其实没什么感情，但是他和庭洲是在这座城市相遇的，便让这座没什么特殊性的城市在他心里增加了一点回忆的色彩。
如果当初他们没有在这座城市相遇，他没有被庭洲缠上，他们之间还会不会再相遇，又会不会一起经历种种难以忘记的事情？
他不确定，但是有一点他很确定。
他并不后悔与庭洲在这里相遇，哪怕自己现在有时仍然会被他气到。
高寒回忆了一下，突然发现不对。
如果青市出了事，为什么他看过去，好像什么事也没有发生一样？
正疑惑着，远处飞来一道身影，眨眼就来到他面前。
“你来了。”
“你不是说有事吗？”高寒挑眉道。
钟离庭洲耸耸肩，“办完了啊，我还以为你会比我先到，不过我也没比你到多久，我刚收到他们发给我的消息，叫我过去，我就发现你来了。”
高寒将孔院长让他去找鲛人王一事说了，“青市现在是什么情况，孔院长不是说受到鲨鱼群袭击吗？”
“他也是这么跟我说的，既然来了，那就去看一下？”钟离庭洲说。
“行吧。”高寒点了点头，他现在满肚子疑惑，等见到孔院长和钟离二哥他们，相信就知道了。
他们第一次在青市遇见司马烨那晚，正是城市受到深海族袭击的时候，那场袭击造成的影响很大，很多高楼大厦和住宅区都倒塌了。
后来重新建造，那里便不再是住宅区，更像一个被人流隔绝的城市后花园。
而当时住在附近，幸存下来的人都搬到其他地方。
地球变异后，地球的人口急剧锐减，当年人口最高达到六千多万人的青市，在高寒和钟离庭洲离开的时候，只剩下将近一千万人，要不然，一个四通八达的沿海城市，是不可能隔出一个巨大的后花园。
高寒没想到，钟离庭洲说的地方，就是他们当初遇见的地方，现在的后花园。
“怎么还有结界？”
刚刚踏进去，高寒就发现不对劲，他狐疑地看向钟离庭洲。
钟离庭洲立刻说：“这结界的威力不弱，不像是地球上的人布置得出来的，难不成，还有人跟我们一样？从灵天大陆来这里？”
“我怎么觉得，你们今天处处透着古怪。”再仔细想想，高寒总觉得哪哪都不对。
“什么你们，我也和你一样刚来的好不好？”钟离庭洲一脸无辜。
“不对。”高寒很肯定地说道，“这要是平时的你，肯定也会说我也觉得很古怪，还会很兴奋地进去探索。”
钟离庭洲一听就知道想糊弄他是不可能了，“好吧，我确实有问题，我们先进去，我再告诉你？”
见他承诺了，高寒也不为难他，想知道他葫芦里到底卖了什么药。
没想到，里面是一个巨大的惊喜。
他人生中第一场婚礼，是在主人公毫不知情的情况下开始的。
整个青市的后花园，就在他踏进去的那一瞬间，突然亮起一盏盏明灯。
更像进入了科幻的世界，一声长啼，他看到头顶飞过两只比翼鸟，巨大的翅膀，红蓝相间的羽毛，展翅高飞，昂扬的翱翔在无边无尽的天空之上。
一片翠绿的花园，突然百花争艳，层层叠叠的开出一朵又一朵的美丽花朵，花浪在风中摇曳着身姿。
高寒在花丛间看到一张张熟悉的脸。
有他的父母和爷爷，还有天生爷爷和余仙姑姑，也有钟离老爷子，二哥他们，大大小小一家子……不对，钟离家主好像被留在帝都看家了。
还有宋明明沈星雷，司马烨等等熟人，连他在深海王宫找不到的鲛人王，居然也来了。
蓬莱学院的导师，骗他说出事的孔院长，他的导师范教授等等，还有一些他教过的家族炼器师。
他都没心思去数，就知道这里至少来了三分之二个华国的强者。
钟离庭洲一弹指，高寒身上那套简单朴素的衬衫就换成了禁欲系的白色西装，他身上则是标志性的黑色西装。
钟离庭洲手上也多出一抹珍贵的灵药，目光温柔地看着他。
“高寒，你愿意跟我在一起生生世世，哪怕死亡也分不开你我的那种吗？”
双方的长辈心中无言以对，这是什么求婚誓言？
高寒盯着他看了半天，后者都被他盯出了紧张，目光仍然灼灼地看着他，他才轻声道：“你这是在诅咒我，还是在诅咒你？”
听到这话，观众们会心一笑。
随即又感慨万分，这样的感情其实真挚得让人羡慕。
司马烨挺羡慕的，“什么时候我们也能像他们一样，找到一个真心爱自己的人。”
旁边的余鸣洋眼神复杂地看了他一眼，垂下眼眸，“是啊。”
He didn't understand why Brother Ye, who was almost fifty years old, had already married and had children, but he alone had no idea in this regard.
Gao Han accepted the handful of elixirs that were meant for fun from Zhongli Tingzhou.
"So, you've been sneaking around these weekends just to get this wedding done, right?"
"If it wasn't for giving you a surprise, I would have specially chosen Qing City where we got engaged. Doesn't it look like our backyard?"
"I don't really want to pour cold water on you, but I still want to say that it was actually your wishful thinking at the beginning." Gao Han couldn't help it.
Zhongli Tingzhou snorted, "Nonsense, I clearly felt your passion. That night, you even let me bury myself in your arms. Have you forgotten?"
The onlookers felt as if they were eating a huge melon.
Gao Han really wanted to shut his stinky mouth. He made a good thing sound so erotic, which was obviously not the case.
"I promise, you can shut up now."
Zhongli Tingzhou was satisfied.
The two began to become true Taoist companions in front of their elders.
They are cultivators who practice immortality against the will of heaven. They do not worship heaven or earth, but only their parents and elders.
"I have no other requests. I just hope that Tingzhou will treat Gao Han well in the future." As a representative, Yuan Tianping took the hands of the two and put Gao Han's hand in his.
Gao Han suddenly pressed down his grandfather's hand and signaled with his eyes.
Yuan Tianping smiled, then took over and put Zhongli Tingzhou's hand into Gao Han's hand.
Zhongli Tingzhou glanced at Gao Han and said, "Okay, let's make him happy today."
Grandpa Zhongli didn't have much to say. The most important thing was that his children were happy in their lives.
After paying respects to their parents and elders, the two officially became husband and wife.
Gao Han threw the elixir in his hand away, and everyone's eyes lit up and they started scrambling for it.
Tell them clearly that this is the moment everyone has been waiting for, and as for the two protagonists, you can get married as you please.
Finally, this magical medicine accidentally fell into the hands of Sima Ye, who was almost fifty years old and still unmarried.
Gao Han suddenly leaned close to Zhongli Tingzhou's ear and said something.
"Thank you for planning the wedding for me. I really like it."
