The apprentice always wants to kill me

Chapter 34

Those three disciples were standing in front of him, standing half a head taller than him out of thin air.It was the first time for Du Zhong to have close contact with such a strong man, and he felt a sense of oppression. He subconsciously licked his lips nervously, and then smiled: "It's me... let's go."

The one who seemed to be the leader among the three glanced at Fourteen and said, "Take your apprentice with you."

Du Zhong also looked at Shisi and was taken aback for a moment: "He is a new apprentice I just recruited after I came back, and he has never entered a secret realm."

The disciple glanced at him, took out a flying magic weapon and threw it in front of him, then repeated coldly: "Then also, please."

Du Zhong couldn't help it, so he had to take Shisi to step on the magic weapon together.After the three disciples also stood up, the magic weapon left the Lingcao hall in an instant.

The things in the hands of the core disciples are naturally not ordinary things, Du Zhong only felt dizzy mixed with nausea, and before he came back to his senses, he had already arrived at the core area of ​​the Tianxuan Sect, in front of the main hall of the master Qiong Jizi.

The three of them looked at Eucommia's weak appearance, with an indistinct disdain and disgust on their faces: "Here we are."

It is natural to be disdainful. The core disciples are different from other disciples. They are the heaven's favored sons, the top geniuses in the entire Tianxuan sect.

They exist so that the master will not be at a disadvantage in any struggle. They are the master's confidantes, and they don't have to deal with the affairs of the sect at all, and they don't even deal with ordinary disciples at all. A person as immature as Du Zhong is inevitably taken aback by how weak he is.

Du Zhong saw it, but he didn't feel much in his heart. After all, it's nothing to be despised by the boss.He swayed and stepped on the ground, and said quickly: "Thank you."

"Well, you wait here for a while." The leading disciple withdrew his gaze and quickly walked up the steps in front of the main hall, probably needing to inform first.

This is the first time for Du Zhong to come to this place, he took a few breaths and then raised his eyes to look around.

The hall in front of it was shrouded in a thin layer of mist, it looked extremely majestic and ethereal from a close distance, and the silver steps were clean and shiny.The disciple who went to report had already reached the high place in an instant, his back was obscured by the mist, but he hadn't reached the end yet.

Fourteen had long been stunned. He had never seen such a luxurious building, even in his dreams, he dared not even think about it.But this is the residence of the head of Tianxuan, the local tyrant is outrageous.

The disciples who went up quickly came down again after a while, and he walked in front of Du Zhong, and said lightly: "You can go up."

Du Zhong followed the three disciples up the long silvery steps.

It is very rude to use a magic weapon in front of the head, and it is the same to carry people behind or drag people away.

But Eucommia is weak right now, climbing the stairs is already extremely strenuous, and he has to climb two steps to stop for a while, so the three core disciples can only follow him forward at a slow pace.

Du Zhong looked at the looming veins on their foreheads, smiled awkwardly, and then continued to walk slowly.

At this time, a trace of spiritual consciousness came from above, covering Eucommia, as if it could penetrate the flesh and see into the bone marrow.He resisted the discomfort of being seen through, and continued to climb slowly upwards with difficulty.

After a while, a deep male voice came: "...carry him up."

One of the disciples couldn't wait to carry Du Zhong on his back, as if he had wanted to do this for a long time.The disciple turned his head slightly and said to Fourteen: "Go up by yourself."

As soon as the words fell, the three of them had separated a considerable distance from Fourteen in an instant.

Should have carried me up a long time ago... Du Zhong lay on the back of the core disciple, watching the top getting closer and closer, secretly cursing.

Before the last few steps, Eucommia was let down, so he had no choice but to continue his trembling steps.

When he finally walked the last few steps, the three disciples had been waiting for a long time.They stood behind a handsome young man in green clothes, showing respect on their faces.

This young man in green is the Da Neng he saw after leaving the secret realm that day.Du Zhong glanced at him, then immediately withdrew his eyes and lowered his head, saluted quickly and respectfully said: "Master."

"Put your face up."

Du Zhong raised his head obediently, and saw the head master staring at him with doubts on his face: "You are Du Zhong?...Why didn't I see you that day?"

That's right, this kind of powerful monk has a strong sea of ​​consciousness, so he can never forget it with his photographic memory. Although he only met him once, he should remember all the disciples who came out of the secret realm that day.

It turned out that he was so old that he couldn't even recognize the great ability of the sect master. Du Zhong restrained the urge to reach out and touch his face, and kept his posture extremely low when he spoke: "The disciple was injured later, and his aging accelerated, so the sect master no impression."

Qiong Jizi stared at him, said "En" casually, walked forward slowly with his hands behind his back, and walked in front of Du Zhong.

It was too close, Du Zhong swallowed slightly, resisting the urge to retreat, and stood still on the spot.Being stared straight at by this kind of power made him feel like a frog or ant stared at by a snake, vulnerable and vulnerable.

A trace of powerful spiritual consciousness came down from the top of his head with a terrifying pressure. With a "boom" in Du Zhong's head, he felt dizzy and out of breath, and his whole face was smothered in a moment.

He can no longer use spiritual power, so he can only carry it on his shoulders.

Qiong Jizi stared at him for a moment, then abruptly withdrew his consciousness and took half a step back to distance himself from Du Zhong.

At this moment, Du Zhong's head was already congested with bloodshot eyes, and he was defenseless when the Qiong machine was retracted. He almost fell backwards and fell down the steps, but fortunately, he was supported by Shishi who had just come up in time.

Qiong Jizi showed a difference, probably because he didn't expect him to be so vulnerable, and he was afraid of accidentally killing him, so he kept a distance from him, and then asked, "I heard that you know Mozun?"

Du Zhong didn't know who he was listening to and how much he had heard, so he didn't know how to answer, so he lowered his head cautiously and said nothing.

Qiong Jizi took another small step back, sighed and said again: "You should also know, right? This Immortal Gate Grand Competition is hosted by the Tianxuan Sect, and Tianxuan is mainly responsible for the opening and entry of the Great Thousand Secret Realm. But something like this happened, and the impact was very bad, and the other heads kept asking me what was going on."

Du Zhong thought about it and replied: "Yes, I know something... It's really unexpected."

"Unexpected?" Qiong Jizi sneered, "This incident made me see that there were traitors among the high-level disciples in the sect. If it wasn't for them, the demon king would not have appeared in the secret realm. But they are extremely hidden, it seems that there are more than one or two people, I'm still clueless."

He still understands this. There is only one entrance to the Great Thousand Secret Realm, and it is still guarded by the five sects.If the Mozun could not tear open the second entrance with his bare hands, then he must have entered through the main entrance with several Moxiu under strict guard under the watchful eyes of everyone.

If it wasn't for someone helping him to cover up his whereabouts, it would be impossible for so many elite disciples to be unaware.

However, those who can affect the list of disciples patrolling and entering the secret realm, and stuff several demon cultivators into the secret realm must be high-level disciples, whose level is so high that he can't make friends with them at all.

There are not many such disciples, and the Qiong Jizi must have been suspected, but he has not found any real evidence, and because those disciples have a great influence on the daily operation of the Tianxuan Sect, he can't easily kill them all. would be so clueless.

But this is really not something that can involve him, Du Zhong didn't see what Qiong Jizi wanted to say, so he closed his mouth, stood respectfully, and nodded slightly to express his understanding.

"The strength of the Tianxuan Sect has always been the strongest among the five major sects in the human world. In the past, whether it was the demon king or the ghost king, we had to respect us three points. However, the demon king has behaved so unscrupulously recently, which makes me a little uneasy. For many years, for peace, We have always had our order, but now he dares to openly provoke and try to overthrow our previous order, he must have a trump card."

Qiong Jizi stared at him, and slowed down his speech: "I don't care how you met him or what your relationship is, but I believe you are definitely not a traitor. You have seen how perverted Mozun is, right? ?”

"Yes." Du Zhong looked at him and nodded.

"The human world must be ruled by the righteous way, and it must not fall into the hands of such people." Qiong Jizi showed a trace of dissatisfaction, "Besides, this time the Wuji Sect took advantage of him quietly, and I, Tianxuan, lost the most , but did not get the slightest benefit, I want to know what's going on."

"Before, for some considerations, I tolerated Mozun's exclusive arrangement of bitterness, shortness and sweetness. Please pay attention to more exciting behaviors. But now I have also got a little news, and I don't want to bear him anymore. This time I call you This is why I came here, I hope you can go back to him and see for me who the traitor is."

"If the time is right, kill the Demon Lord and bring the body back to Tianxuan."

You have a beautiful idea, but you have not grasped the information well.Du Zhong showed a trace of embarrassment, stretched out his trembling hand, and stared at the Qiong Ji with a wry smile: "The sect needs me, so I will do my best. But the sect master..."

Qiong Jizi nodded and smiled very kindly: "This is something I didn't consider in advance, I didn't expect you to be so... Don't worry, I am not a person who will make things difficult for others. You can stay in the Tianxuan Sect to heal your wounds slowly, you I have always been aware of the contributions you have made to Tianxuan over the years, and Tianxuan will never reject you, but I still hope that when you are better, you can make a little sacrifice for righteousness when necessary."

Didn't expect me to be so vulnerable, did you?Du Zhong frantically pursed his lips and spat in his heart, but he still maintained his obedience on his face, and said with both hands: "Thank you for the master, I am naturally willing to sacrifice everything for the sect."

"Very good." Qiong Jizi stared at him and smiled with satisfaction, "But don't talk nonsense when you go back, I will always watch you. If you dare to talk nonsense, you won't want to know the consequences."

"Naturally." Du Zhong immediately and cautiously stated that he already knew.

Qiong Jizi flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked into the hall: "Go back, take care of your wounds."

The three core disciples watched Qiong Jizi leave respectfully and then looked at Du Zhong: "Let's go."

Qiong Jizi didn't speak, and they didn't dare to go straight down with Du Zhong on their backs, so they had to slow down and lead the way.Simply going down the stairs was always easier than going up the stairs, and he was supported by Fourteen so he wouldn't be as slow as when he came up.

Seeing that they had thrown out the magic weapon, Du Zhong reported the location of Bai Chen's Xiaofeng and said, "Can you send me there, senior brother?"

"He was also invited by the head. You won't be able to see him now. We'd better send you back to your own residence."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Du Zhong to ask again, as soon as he stood up, he immediately urged the magic weapon to fly into the air, and left the original place in an instant.

After sending Eucommia back to the Lingcao Hall, they left in a hurry, probably because they had other things to do.

14 It was the first time in his life that he saw a magic weapon and saw such a powerful disciple. He looked at the direction they left with longing in his eyes, grabbed Eucommia's sleeve, and said innocently: "Master, I also want to be That kind of people!"

Du Zhong's gloomy mood was swept away by Shisi's stupid appearance, and he couldn't help laughing out loud, rubbing his little head: "You said before that you wanted to be like your Senior Brother Gu, you will change your mind now gone?"

Fourteen frowned and scratched his head with his hands, thinking for a moment: "Brother Gu, isn't he as powerful as them?"

Du Zhong stroked the child's hair, and looked at the distance with a look of confusion: "No...he will be stronger than them."

He didn't continue talking, but in fact, it's not just these few seemingly unreachable disciples?Gu Qingli will become the most powerful person in the world in the future, unlike him.

He has stopped there.Du Zhong took out the bronze mirror from his sleeve to look at it again, his gaze was fixed, and within less than a stick of incense, he became faintly older again.

too fast?Du Zhong knew that he was probably hopeless, and he accepted his fate, so although he felt uncomfortable, he didn't panic too much.

The future can be foreseen, Du Zhong felt that standing made him a little uncomfortable, so he walked slowly to his bamboo hut, ready to lie down for a while, and told Fourteen by the way: "You go to Bai Chen and wait, when he comes back, you tell him I am here Something went wrong."

Fourteen responded, and just as he was about to trot away, Du Zhong stopped him again: "Wait, I'll give you the cultivation secret book first, and you take it and read it yourself."

Fourteen immediately turned around and ran back to him, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Du Zhong beckoned him to come in with him, then slowly moved into the room and sat on the couch: "Go and bring me the stack of books on the shelf."

Fourteen immediately took down the stack of books he was talking about and put them beside Du Zhong.

Du Zhong picked it up one by one and looked at it. Finally, he chose the most entry-level mental method, patted the dust on it, and handed it to him: "Practice hard. Go."

Fourteen immediately took it and hugged it in his arms, thanked Dian Dian and ran away.

Seeing that he was gone, Du Zhong lay on his back on the couch staring at the beams in a daze, clasped his hands on his stomach, and tapped his fingertips rhythmically on the back of his hands.

Probably because it took too long to be summoned by the head, Bai Chen didn't come as soon as usual this time.

Du Zhong lay on the bed and waited for a full hour, and he almost fell asleep when he waited until he heard footsteps outside the door.

After a while, someone knocked lightly on the door outside the house, and Du Zhong called to come in, and Shisi led Bai Chen and Shen He through the door and came in.

Du Zhong looked at them sideways, and the two of them stared at him and were suddenly stunned.Bai Chen didn't care about etiquette, and immediately walked over anxiously: "What's going on? Ah Zhong, why did you become like this?"

Shen He also came over to investigate carefully, then slowly withdrew his hands, and glanced at Du Zhong: "It's the backlash of magic. Because you can no longer use spiritual power, it is devouring your vitality."

Bai Chen was taken aback, and after a moment of hesitant silence, he asked, "What should I do?... As long as I can save him, no matter what I need, I will give it to me if I have it."

Shen He shook his head: "The inside of his golden elixir is very unstable. It's a blessing that it hasn't exploded until now. He can't even take higher-level elixirs. So there's nothing I can do about this situation..."

"So? Watch him die like this?"

"I'm afraid it can only be like this..." Shen He didn't know why, he was much more attentive than when he came last time. To stabilize him with a healing technique, but it's certainly useless."

Du Zhong had already had a premonition before, and now his heart was empty, and he only asked: "Then how long can I live?"

"At least one more week to live. Backlash is only fast in the initial stage, and you won't keep aging at such a fast rate."

Du Zhong let out a sigh of relief, thinking that fortunately, he can grow 30 to [-] years old in one day, and if he keeps this speed, he will die in two days.

Du Zhong nodded and thanked, then closed his eyes, Bai Chen politely asked Shen He a few words, and sent him away.

Bai Chen came back in a hurry after seeing him off, leaned in front of him and comforted him, "Maybe there is a turnaround? Maybe there will be adventures."

Is this the young master who bullied him?Du Zhong secretly thought, there are so many good things, he is not the kind of protagonist in novels who can always survive from adversity and never die.He is really getting cold.

It would be nice to spend the last days at home, what kind of adventure is here.

He doesn't have too many things that he can't let go of. He basically knows the development direction of the world in this book. For example, Gu Qingli will become number one in the world sooner or later.

He doesn't need to worry about it at all, he is a thief, he just needs to go through these last days quietly.

"I'm fine." Du Zhong said flatly, and in turn comforted Bai Chen, "Maybe it will be fine tomorrow."

"Yes." Bai Chen immediately followed him and said a few nice words, but the two of them were just deceiving each other, and neither of them believed what they said.

As a patient, Du Zhong really has no energy to comfort others.Silently listening to Bai Chen's good words, he said weakly, "I'm tired."

The other party immediately stood up very understandingly: "Then senior brother will go back first, Ah Zhong, you have a good rest."

Du Zhong gave a "hmm", watched him close the door and leave, and closed his eyes tiredly.

Shisi, who just ran out, has also returned, holding a new food box in his hand, ran to Du Zhong to open it, and took out a bowl of porridge: "Master, I haven't eaten all day, let's eat something."

Du Zhong squinted his eyes and looked sideways. It was a bowl of white porridge.After being hungry for too long, he actually lost his appetite, but he still gave an "En" and let Fourteen help him up.

Fourteen picked up the bowl seriously, scooped up a spoonful of porridge with a small spoon and brought it to his mouth.Du Zhong opened his mouth to eat, and felt that the porridge not only had the aroma of rice, but also the smooth taste of fish and eggs.

So it's not white porridge?Du Zhong looked at the thick and mellow white soup soaked in rice grains, felt warm in his heart, and smiled sincerely: "When did the food get so good?"

"The fish I caught this morning!" Fourteen showed a proud smile, and quickly put it away shyly, "Master is ill, and the cook said that eating some fish will make you recover soon, so I caught two and let them The cook made a pot of porridge."

This child is really sensible, Du Zhong rubbed Shishi's little head, feeling that the porridge he drank in his stomach has been ironed into his heart, making his body warm.

Xiao Shisi held the porridge bowl and fed the porridge into Du Zhong's mouth bit by bit.

After drinking the porridge, Du Zhong felt much more comfortable, and lay down on the couch again.

He has low energy like an old man now, often drowsy, and he fell asleep again not long after Shisi went out.

Early the next morning, Du Zhong woke up in a daze, and subconsciously took out a bronze mirror from his sleeve to take a picture.

It seemed true that what Shen He said earlier would gradually slow down the aging rate. Du Zhong looked at the white-haired man with wrinkled face in the mirror for a moment, and then barely recognized that this was himself in his 60s or [-]s.

Not bad, at least he didn't grow ten years old overnight like the night before.When I woke up, I was only five years older.

Du Zhong comforted himself, and silently put the bronze mirror back into his sleeve.

Let's have breakfast first.He licked his lips and was about to speak when he suddenly felt something hard and angular touch his tongue.

Du Zhong was stunned for a moment, immediately took the thing in his mouth and slowly sat up, spat it out and saw that it was a tooth.

Toothless, Du Zhong stared blankly at that tooth for a while, then licked it around in his mouth after regaining consciousness, and licked down a few more teeth.

So many teeth... He spat them out into the palm of his hand, his hands trembling tremblingly, almost throwing those teeth out.

How many, how many?Du Zhong's eyes had also begun to blur. He tremblingly lifted his hand to his eyes, and barely saw those small white teeth.He stretched out his fingertips to touch those teeth, but he couldn't hold his hands steady at all, and he could barely count them right after counting several times.

It is nine.How come there are so many?Would a 60-year-old lose so many teeth?

Du Zhong suddenly realized belatedly that he was aging rapidly, which was so terrifying.

He looked around in a panic, and his gaze finally settled on his own pillow, which was covered with gray hair.

After reacting for a moment, he realized that it might be his own, and hurriedly stroked the top of his head with trembling hands.

A little bald.

It turns out that people in their 60s and [-]s also lose so much hair?

Du Zhong stared at the fallen hair, a little at a loss.A voice in my heart shouted: How could this happen? !why? !

Another voice was analyzing calmly: What's so surprising, didn't you expect this to happen?And more than that, you have to live until tomorrow, until the day after tomorrow, until you become 70 years old, 80 years old, until you die of old age.

But before he only vaguely thought that he would grow old and die, but he never thought about it so carefully.

The teeth will fall out, the top of the head will be bald, the eyes will be blurred, and the ears will be deaf.Before, he only knew that he couldn't walk steadily and couldn't use his strength, but he didn't know that he wouldn't even be able to eat by himself in the future.

After that?What is waiting for him after that?

Panic gripped his heart tightly, making his chest tight and he couldn't breathe.

Calm down, is there any other use for panicking now besides sudden cardiac death?Du Zhong looked away in a daze, stretched out his hand to cover his heart, and forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart.

He sat still for a while, and when he spoke, his hoarse voice startled him: "Fourteen..."

Fourteen dared not sleep in Gu Qingli's room, and spent the past two days sleeping on the floor in the outer room next door.As soon as he heard Eucommia's call, he immediately ran over, knocked on the door and ran in directly: "Master, do you want breakfast?"

His old state was immediately exposed to the eyes of others, and Du Zhong felt ashamed belatedly, and stopped talking after an absent-minded "En".

Seeing his appearance, Shisi stayed for two seconds before running over: "Master, is your illness well?"

The little child didn't know whether it was a good cover-up or he didn't understand anything, and there was no trace of disgust on his face, which made Du Zhong feel a little at ease.

"No." It couldn't be better.

"I'll help Master get some food first." The child ran out again.

Du Zhong twisted the hair on the pillow one by one, because he had to hang his head very low because of bad eyesight, but the lowered head made his cervical spine tingle.

His fingers trembled so much that he thought he could hold it several times but failed.

why me?Why didn't someone else become like this?

Du Zhong stopped his movements and remained silent for a moment, watching his wrinkled hands suddenly grow angry.He was panting violently, his gaze gradually became gloomy, he flung the pillow out violently, and hit the corner of the table with a "boom".

Is it because he has someone who he wants to protect? !

At this time, someone knocked on the door suddenly, pulling Du Zhong's thoughts out of a terrible corner.Panting heavily, he looked blankly at the place where the sound came from. Fourteen came back from the cook so soon?

There was no response from him, but it was not Fourteen's immature voice that came from outside the door, but a more mature male voice: "Master?"

It was Gu Qingli who came back.

Before Du Zhong could stop him, Gu Qingli pushed open the door.

The sun shines directly into the room, illuminating every corner, and also illuminating Du Zhong's old face.

He saw that Gu Qingli was not the only one outside the door, there were several young girls standing behind Gu Qingli, including An He, Yun Yu, and several nephews of Wan Jianfeng.

Du Zhong looked at the group of heroic young men, raised his hands halfway in the air as if trying to cover his face, but restrained himself in time.

Gu Qingli was also taken aback when he saw him, and quickly blocked the view of the people behind him, saying to them, "You guys wait outside first."

After saying that, close the door immediately.

An He's worried voice came from outside the door: "What happened?"

It turned out that Du Zhong's place was still a little darker, except for Gu Qingli who was the first to come in, the others couldn't see his appearance clearly.

Gu Qingli walked towards Du Zhong quickly, and asked, "What's going on?"

Du Zhong was a little afraid to look at him, he hesitated to tell the cause and effect.

Gu Qingli waited for a while, and saw that he didn't seem to want to say anything, so he didn't want to pursue it further, so he asked again: "Is Master hungry?"

It was only then that Du Zhong noticed that he was still carrying a food box, which probably brought it to him along the way.Without saying a word, Gu Qingli took it as acquiescence, and directly took out the items from the food box and placed them on the table.

Du Zhong glanced at it, two dishes and one soup, a piece of sauced meat and a big steamed bun.He clenched his teeth tightly and subconsciously licked the empty mouth, not knowing what to say.

"who are you?"

It was Fourteen who came back, Du Zhong immediately raised his head when he heard the voice, leaned forward and called, "You come in first."

Gu Qingli turned slightly to cover Du Zhong, watched Shishi standing there after pushing the door open, and waved his hand to signal him to close the door quickly.

Fourteen quickly closed the door with his backhand and walked into the room, seeing Gu Qingli suddenly excited: "Senior Brother Gu!"

Gu Qingli stared at him for a moment, then let out a faint "En" from his body.

Fourteen carried the food box he brought and walked quickly on his short legs, just as he was about to find a place to put it down when he saw the food on the table, he whispered: "Master is sick, now I can only drink porridge. "

After finishing speaking, he took out a bowl of porridge, and ran to Du Zhong with a small spoon to feed him the porridge.

The gentle porridge is very comfortable to drink, and fish and eggs are still added. Du Zhong sighed: "Are you running to catch fish again?"

The child nodded shyly, not ashamed to claim credit like yesterday, and just continued to feed him small bites.

Gu Qingli glanced away before looking away. He took out a small bone-white teacup from his sleeve, went to the table, picked up the teapot and poured some water into the cup.

He stared at the cup for a while, then picked it up and walked back to Du Zhong: "Master, drink some water."

In fact, Du Zhong was not thirsty just after drinking the porridge, but he didn't want to disappoint the other party's kindness, so he took a sip from his hand.

Drinking this sip of water makes people deeply understand what it means to be full of vitality.The vitality in the water starts from the mouth and spreads to the whole body.

My eyes are no longer blurred, my ears are much clearer, my body is less painful, and even the feeling of weakness is much less, which makes me feel better physically and mentally.

Du Zhong knew that the little cup was extraordinary.

Gu Qingli looked at him for a moment and asked, "How does Master feel?"

Du Zhong laughed, but quickly stopped it when he thought that he didn't even have a tooth in his mouth.It turned out that Gu Qingli didn't abandon him to stand on his own, but helped him find a way to survive.

This feeling of being held on top of his heart was so good, it immediately dispelled his anxiety for the past two days.The joy on Du Zhong's face couldn't be hidden: "It's much better."

Gu Qingli looked at his still old face, wiped the rim of the cup lightly with his fingertips, turned around and put the cup on the table: "This is a teacup made of spirit animal bone meal, drinking water from it can prolong life."

After he finished speaking, he leaned over again and reached out to press Du Zhong's dantian.

Seeing that the other party was so close to him, Du Zhong felt embarrassed, worried that Gu Qingli would smell something bad about him, so he moved back unconsciously.

Fourteen leaned on the edge of the couch and stared at it for a while, then asked in a low voice, "How is Master?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingli withdrew his hand and straightened up, glanced at him without answering, and asked Du Zhong directly: "Master's new personal disciple?"

Du Zhong had been absent-minded before, and when he was asked, he remembered to introduce Shisi, so he patted Shishi's small arm: "Yes, his name is Shishi, I picked it from the disciples of the outer school, and he is very sensible." .”

Seeing that he finally mentioned himself on the fourteenth, he jumped up excitedly, and looked at Gu Qingli with admiration in his big eyes: "Hello, Senior Brother Gu!"

This is much more pleasing than Gu Qingli's unreasonable stinky look when he was a child.

"...Master's situation is not very good." Gu Qingli nodded "Yeah" to show that he understood, glanced at the two of them for a while, then fell silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "I've only been out for three days."

He popped out such a sentence, and Du Zhong didn't know what he wanted to say, "I've only been out for three days and you've become like this bird" or "I've only been out for three days and you've accepted another apprentice", so he had to be vague. Responded: "Yes, three and a half days."

Gu Qingli stood in the same place and pondered for a moment, raised his eyebrows and walked forward to caress Shisi's back, and said softly: "Take care of Master, I'm leaving first."

Seeing that he was about to turn around and leave, Du Zhong became a little anxious: "Qingli?"

After finally rushing back before he died, he was about to leave after a face-to-face meeting?He has no more than two days to live.

"Huh?" Gu Qingli stopped and looked sideways at him, waiting for him to speak.

"You just came back, leaving so soon?" Du Zhong moved forward tremblingly, hesitated for a while and continued, "I don't have a few days, so don't be in such a hurry, right?"

He wanted to slap himself after he finished speaking.What are you talking about? They are doing it for his own good. What he said seems to mean that Gu Qingli disregards his life for his own sake.

But what he really wants to say is that I am going to die soon, and I hope that when I die, you can be by my side and accompany me.Don't leave me alone with aging and death, I'm really scared.

But it was impossible for him to say it directly. How could a little old man not be able to say such hypocritical words.

Gu Qingli didn't care about his misstatement, he shook his head and said, "This time, I have caused Master to suffer. If Master didn't save me, it wouldn't be like this at all. No matter what, I will find someone who can save Master. method."

After finishing speaking, he stopped looking at Du Zhong, and without waiting for Du Zhong to continue speaking, he left the room directly, and said to the people waiting outside: "Let's go."

As soon as the door was opened and closed, the room was bright and dark, and Du Zhong's old face fell into darkness again.

"Did senior encounter any problems?" An He asked immediately when he saw Gu Qingli coming out, and scratched his head again when he saw that the other party was walking forward on his own and ignoring him.He has always known that sometimes his words are not pleasant to listen to, so he hesitated for a moment to sort out the words in his mind before expressing his position in a low voice, "If you encounter any trouble, come to me, I will definitely do my best."

Gu Qingli paused when he heard the words, and showed a sincere smile at the corner of his mouth: "Thank you."

When the other disciples saw him, they immediately said that if there was something they could use, they would do their best to help.

"En." Gu Qingli didn't want to respond to the deliberate flattery of these disciples, so he looked ahead and took the lead in striding forward.

When you show your strength, many people will come to please you and try to make friends with you, because it is an instinct for the weak to attach themselves to the strong in order to maximize their benefits. The former Gu Qingli knew it deeply and had a lot of experience. Indulge in it for a long time.

It's a pity that this relationship doesn't last long. Once you lose your own abilities, you will lose everyone around you.

But there are also some people who will silently protect you when you are weak, and will not come to curry favor with you when you are strong. How much are you worth.

Eucommia is the latter type of person to Gu Qingli. Gu Qingli, who had been alone for a lifetime many years ago, never thought that there would be someone with this kind of relationship with him. Now that this person appears, it is even more precious.

Before the Xianmen Grand Competition, except for Du Zhong, almost no one paid attention to him, but now some people began to follow him.

It is impossible for Gu Qingli to forget what is the most precious just because he is surrounded by a few people. If the teacup made of spirit animal bone meal can't save Eucommia, then he will have to look for other treasures.

As he walked, he searched in his mind for possible useful treasures that he had seen before.

If one doesn't work, just two, if two don't work, there will be more, no matter where he will find it.

In the dim hut, Shisi looked at Du Zhong who was in a daze and did not dare to speak easily.

After a while, Eucommia shivered slightly, came back to his senses, his expression was a little dull, and he seemed unresponsive: "He left?"

"En." Fourteen opened his eyes and watched him slowly straighten up, and suddenly asked, "Master's clothes don't fit well anymore, should I get another set for Master?"

"Ah?" He slowly looked at himself, and only after being reminded by others did he realize that the clothes really didn't fit.

His back was a little bent, and the flesh on his body was a little loose. The clothes he was wearing just now were tightly bound to his body, which was very uncomfortable.He said: "Go, bring a new set back."

Fourteen responded and ran out, leaving Du Zhong alone on the couch.

He was more than 20 years old in more than three days, and Du Zhong stretched out his hand to catch his sleeves. After that, the speed of aging should be slower and slower. He can definitely live for another three days until the next time Gu Qingli comes back.

Regardless of whether he brings the treasures of heaven and earth that can save him, he hopes that his relatives in this world can accompany him to the last moment.
