Mo Qian did not answer this, but just looked at Qi Jing, who was happily lying on the table choosing snacks and even competing for food with the half-grown Yunbao.
He had never seen Qi Jing so innocent before, and it felt quite novel.
Gu Zhou was used to it, so he couldn't help but ask, "What was my uncle like before?"
"I'm like this."
Gu Zhou looked at Mo Qian with disdain and suspicion. How could Mo Qian be like this?
Mo Qian ignored his look and simply said, "He was very busy back then, either fighting monsters or calling on others to join him in resisting them. Although he raised me, we didn't spend much time together. He always had his own concerns, and he only left me this photo before he left."
Gu Zhou now understood. Although Qi Jing was very powerful, his appearance that time was not simply to deal with the monster, but to let the people of this world resist on their own.
Gu Zhou asked, "Did he lose?"
"Perhaps, he should be very disappointed. It's good that he doesn't remember it."
Gu Zhou didn't ask any more questions. He walked back and sat down next to Qi Jing, watching Qi Jing eat attentively.
Mo Qian also called Gu Mo aside to talk, wanting to know how he had been doing recently. After the matter was over, they went back.
It was already late at night when they returned to the Qi family, and they were directly teleported to Qi Jun's room.
"I'm back."
As soon as Qi Jun opened his mouth, Qi Jing couldn't hold it anymore. He felt aggrieved and kept silent, feeling a little sad.
Qi Mo asked Gu Mo and the others to go back and rest first, and then he told Qi Jun about the situation over there, including the statue.
Qi Jun was silent for a long time before he spoke, "Are you sure that statue is Xiao Jing?"
"Eighty percent." Gu Zhou glanced at Qi Jing, especially the dragon carved behind the stone statue, which was very similar to the one on Qi Jing.
Qi Jun looked at Qi Jing who was leaning on him. Although he didn't say a word, he must be very concerned in his heart.
He patted Qi Jing's shoulder comfortingly and said, "Don't think about those things. The people around you now all really like you, and no one will hurt you."
"I know, I just can't figure out who I am." Qi Jing raised his head and looked at him, "Second Master, what am I? Why can I live so long? Could it be that that wasn't me, but my past life?"
Qi Jun really couldn't answer, so he could only say, "There will always be an answer slowly. If you can't find it this time, there will be another time. The descendants of the Qi family will accompany you to find everything you want."
Qi Jing hummed in frustration, then looked at Gu Zhou and asked aggrievedly, "Will you accompany me too?"
"Of course. Even if I don't live to see that day, I'll still accompany you as a ghost." Gu Zhou answered frankly, "But you can't forget me."
Qi Jing shook his head, "I haven't forgotten."
Gu Zhou smiled gently and extended his hand to him, "Shall we go back and rest?"
"Uh-huh."
Qi Jing instantly shook off his bad mood, took Gu Zhou's hand, turned around, waved goodbye to Qi Jun, and left.
Qi Jun smiled and watched them leave, his mood also very complicated.
After the door was closed, Qi Jun spoke to Qi Mo, "You two should spend more time with Xiao Jing in the future. I don't have much time left. If he gets wronged, he needs someone to take charge and rely on."
"My brother and I will." Qi Mo agreed. He could see that Qi Jing's feelings towards the Qi family and Qi Jun were a kind of dependence and sense of belonging.
After Qi Jun leaves, he and Qi Shuo will also assume the responsibility for Qi Jing. He will do it, and Qi Shuo will do it too.
Qi Jing wanted to sleep alone, but before he could climb into bed, Gu Zhou picked him up and carried him into the bathroom, where he was put into the bathtub with his clothes on.
Qi Jing sat inside with a look of grievance on his face, "I don't want to wash, I want to sleep."
"Don't worry, take a bath." Gu Zhou turned on the water and poured it into the bathtub. "Take off your clothes, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable."
Qi Jing didn't think too much about it. He took off his clothes with great effort until he was left with only his shorts. He just sat inside and looked down at the seven dragons swimming around his body.
He poked Jinmulong's eyes until he rolled his eyes before stopping and said in a lost voice, "It's really the same."
Gu Zhou sat down beside the bathtub and looked down at the gloom on Qi Jing's face. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"Not really, I just felt uneasy and a little scared when I heard him talking about grabbing the dragon." Qi Jing said sullenly, hugging himself sadly, not knowing why he was scared.
Gu Zhou felt uncomfortable seeing Qi Jing like this, so he simply took off his clothes, stepped into the bathtub, and hugged Qi Jing from behind.
As their skin touched, the seven dragons immediately came alive and roamed over their bodies.
The golden-eyed dragon had an absolute advantage. It flicked its tail to push away the other dragons circling around Gu Zhou's heart, and its head rested on Gu Zhou's neck, feeling a little sticky.
Qi Jing rolled his eyes at that and said, "Sexy Dragon."
Gu Zhou chuckled, lifted Qi Jing's chin and leaned forward to give him a kiss, "Your eye roll is quite similar to its."
"No, I'm much prettier than it."
"Well, little uncle is the best looking." Gu Zhou praised him, pinched his waist, lifted him up and put him on his lap, and the two of them soaked in the hot water facing each other.
Qi Jing felt a little awkward. He put his hands on Gu Zhou's shoulders and asked him, "Why are you doing this?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to talk to you." Gu Zhou looked up at him slightly, "Now I can confirm that these seven dragons were originally yours, a long time ago."
Qi Jing nodded. It was a long time ago, more than ten thousand years ago.
"And there's a good chance you really are a god." Gu Zhou held the back of his neck and rubbed it. "The ghost messenger said there are many human worlds, but only one ghost world."
"So what's wrong?"
"If there's only one ghost world, then there's only one heavenly world, right?" Gu Zhou stared at him. "That would explain why you ended up in that world, right?"
Qi Jing shook his head doubtfully, "I don't know either, but if I were a god, could I still go back?"
"Do you want to go back?"
Qi Jing still shook his head, "No, I think everything is fine now, but I don't know what my soul thinks."
Gu Zhou pinched the back of his neck affectionately and said, "I'll follow you wherever you go, okay?"
"good."
"Keep your word and don't regret it!"
"Don't go back on your word. Let's make a pinky promise." Qi Jing said, raising his little finger with a serious look on his face.
Gu Zhou really found it funny. How could someone really make a promise by pinky promise? They were not children.
Thinking this in his heart, Gu Zhou still raised his little finger and hooked it with Qi Jing's little finger.
It was also at the moment of hooking that Gu Zhou saw the red string tied around his finger, a thin string that appeared for a moment and then disappeared.
This is the source of the pinky promise. Gu Zhou interlocked his fingers with Qi Jing's and kissed the back of Qi Jing's neck.
The kiss was so deep that Qi Jing almost couldn't breathe, and he was so anxious that he almost took action.
Gu Zhou was really afraid that Qi Jing would accidentally prick him, so he separated them while he was ahead. When he moved his little finger, Qi Jing's little finger followed suit.
