Chapter 1: Five-Year Commitment

Next Chapter

The carriage was galloping, dilapidated and uncovered, the cold wind was howling, and the sky and the earth were dark.

On the carriage, the biting cold wind had already cooled Gu Chen's heart. Although the iron sword is rusty, it has never left his hand!

He stared blankly into the distance, and he didn't know how long it was, but he said to himself:

"She said, let me wait ......five years," he smiled helplessly and bitterly, he stretched out his pale hand, tremblingly groped in the corner, took out a wine bottle and put it in his mouth, let the spirit jar enter his heart and lungs, and then he coughed violently, coughing so much that he bent down, so that the pale face finally had a sickly redness.

The person who was driving the car was slightly fat, and he may not look very old, but there was a hideous scar on his face, and the sunken and wide scar had spread to the collar of his neck, but he didn't know if it was still spreading in the depths of the cloth? He glanced at Gu Chen, and his terrible face was full of helplessness and pity.

"Big brother, you must pay attention to your body, five years ......" he wanted to say the five-year period! It is precisely for this reason that Gu Chen survived. However, the five-year period is approaching, and once these five years have passed, how will Gu Chen live?

"Ah Fu, I have really delayed you in the past five years, and you still have a long way to go. ”

"Big brother, don't say it, how can I repay the kindness between you and me in this life?

"Ah Fu......" He couldn't continue, holding back his eyes that were almost moist, he had finally seen the right person all these years, a man who had not broken his promise.

Ah Fu was silent, he didn't know how he had survived all these years! He was really miserable, and even more lonely!

"Big brother, whatever you have become, I should always follow you" This is definitely not comfort! They were originally masters and servants, but Gu Chen never regarded him as a slave, and later, in those countless battles of life and death, he used his life to block a knife for Gu Chen, and since then, Gu Chen has become his brother in distress.

"Big brother, there are many things, you should try to accept ......" Ah Fu tentatively persuaded him.

"Five years, five whole years, it's finally time to give up. The smile barely squeezed out of the corner of his mouth was even more painful.

Even if he doesn't give up, will his body be able to survive in the next five years? Gu Chen spread out his palms and looked at the black bloody phlegm in his palms, but he couldn't laugh anymore......

The road was potholed, the carriage jolted and continued to move forward, and Gu Chen supported his body with a long sword. In late autumn, the leaves are falling, infinitely desolate, and just like his body, he is gradually dying?

"......Boom," exclaimed the thin horse, his neck tilted back, his front hooves rubbed.

Ah Fu hurriedly resisted the horse, and Gu Chen stabilized his body in the bumpy, looking at each other, all of them were shocked, this was obviously sword qi, and the powerful sword qi came from afar, making the horse frightened.

The horse steadied, and the two looked over, and there was a person blocking the way in front of them, with black hair like a waterfall, a tall figure, and a long sword in his hand was pitch black, shining with a cold light.

His speed is so fast, this sword qi was originally coming from miles away, but in an instant, he could come with the sword qi in one breath. A strand of long hair fell leisurely from Gu Chen's neck, obviously being touched by the wisp of sword qi of Shicai.

He didn't want to kill anyone! Otherwise, Gu Chen would already be a dead soul under the knife.

"You, it's really useless!" Looking at Gu Chen, who was almost unable to stand in the cold wind, the man's face was full of disappointment, and he actually looked a little depressed.

He proclaimed himself a sword maniac, and he only practiced swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship was invincible among his peers! However, he was defeated by Gu Chen a few years ago. He was unwilling, went to the Western Regions, and returned in six years, originally meant to be a "sword maniac", but Gu Chen was terminally ill......

"Sword maniac, I'll take his place in this battle. As soon as Ah Fu spoke, he lifted the spear and saw countless gun shadows when he got up! This is a set of top-class marksmanship in the army, but it has also been played by Afu impenetrable and has no flaws, but this exquisite marksmanship cannot touch the sword maniac at all.

The sword maniac calmly watched Ah Fu's attack. It's just a backhand, a finger on the handle of the knife, just this simple action, but the extremely sensitive Ah Fu can't dodge, hit the abdomen, and fly out to break a big tree!

"Gu Chen, you don't deserve to die under my sword now......" he said calmly. looked at Ah Fu and said:

"Although the marksmanship is exquisite, it is not a set of advanced martial arts. After that, he saw him take out a jade slip from his arms and throw it to Ah Fu, who was getting up and coughing up blood, and said:

"This set of "Shooting to Destroy the World" was obtained by me in an ancient ruin, if you can exert its power, you may be able to achieve something in the future. ”

"I don't need your things!" He didn't look at the jade slip on the ground, and coldly rejected the gift of this Nandu sword!

Gu Chen looked at the simple and old jade slip on the ground, and he saw the extraordinary in it at a glance, this is definitely something left over from the ancient times, and the martial arts that can survive must be extraordinary! He staggered down the carriage and picked up the jade slip in the past, and his heart burst with joy.

He also took out a scroll of paper from his bosom, threw it at the sword maniac, and said:

"This is the dripping swordsmanship, and it allows me, who is not a major in swordsmanship, to surpass you in swordsmanship. You shouldn't lose anything by trading it for this set of marksmanship. ”

The sword maniac took the scroll of paper, his face was ecstatic, he was obsessed with the sword, he could not refuse this temptation! But there were thousands of sighs in his heart; he could freely exchange his mastery for a slave a set of applicable marksmanship, what else could he want? When his life came to an end, perhaps, what he could do was to leave something useful for those who were alive, right?

But this is Gu Chen, one of the four heroes of the Southern Wilderness! That one who had defended the Great Boat Empire against the Western Domain for several years, he was the legendary undefeated god general, even if he looked at the entire Tianyu Continent, he was also the best among them.

Now, he is no different from ordinary people! The road of pursuing the Dao realm, seeking longevity from the sky, and winning the cangyu has been broken. Time flies, maybe many years later, this Southern Wilderness, even the Great Zhou Empire, no one can still remember that in a certain period, Gu Chen, one of the four heroes of the Southern Wilderness, was the undefeated god general.

"Gu Chen, I owe you a favor. "He is arrogant, not easily favored by others, obsessed with swordsmanship, self-proclaimed sword maniac, so that the world does not know his real name and surname, where does he come from? Now he is qualified to win the title of the Four Masters of the Southern Wilderness, even if the world-destroying gun is not necessarily this drop of water swordsmanship, even if Gu Chen was only abolished because of his cultivation, but he only feels that this is his own advantage.

After speaking, he jumped and disappeared in place, coming and going faster.

"Ah Fu, you take it, this is not his gift, this is an exchange with him, and it can be regarded as the only one who can repay you for your care over the years during his lifetime. ”

"Big brother......" Ah Fu's eyes were already moist, he took the jade slip, he didn't know the fate of the future, but if there was any way to make Gu Chen better, even if it was just a glimmer of hope, he would never give up!

The carriage has arrived at the border of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

I still remember the first time I met Long Yuxin, it was in Nantian Academy, they were only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, and they were all freshmen who had just been admitted to the hospital. Once he went to the library of the academy to check ancient books, but met Long Yuxin who was reading.

"The girl is Miss Long Yuxin of the Long family, and I am fortunate to be in the same academy as the first beauty of the Great Zhou, which is really a blessing. ”

"The first beauty doesn't dare to be, but Young Master Gu didn't follow his father to the west, but also came to the academy? Your father Gu Pingxi said that the world is peaceful, and there is no need for literati, only martial arts rule the world. This tall girl with a good face and a good figure disdained him, and the two maids around her treated each other coldly.

"Miss, these reckless men will also pretend to be Sven to read books, you say it's ridiculous?"

Gu Chen was not angry, his father was proud of his achievements, and he never gave face to his words in the court, especially the literati, who always refuted their reasoning sarcastically, and offended many bureaucrats because of this.

However, it was this time that I read the book, and a few years later, it completely changed the discordant relationship between the two families of Xianggu and Long, the generals in the imperial court!

At first, Long Yuxin thought that the son of this reckless man was pretending, but he didn't expect Gu Chen to see that it was a day! During the period, the old man who took care of him sent some food, and he only chewed some steamed buns roughly, his eyes did not leave the books, and he read the books very quickly, and he read them for three days and three nights.

Since then, Long Yuxin has had a new view of Gu Chen. In the days that followed, the two met many times in the library, and naturally became familiar with each other after a long time. Once, Long Yuxin was puzzled by some vague theories in the book, and asked Gu Chen in desperation, but Gu Chen was analyzed in more detail and reason than the original book, which also took a large number of ancient and modern books as examples, including Long Yuxin's reading and unread, which made this woman who loved books admired Gu Chen!

In the countless subsequent consultations, Gu Chen always knew everything and analyzed reasonably, and slowly, the two had a spark of love and began a tryst......

At first, the fathers of both sides couldn't let go of their sons, and under the persistence and persuasion of the young people, the two families became friendly and had already decided to be married, even later, in the terrible battle four years after Gu Chen's westward expedition with his father, his father died in battle, and he was seriously injured because of it, Long Yuxin also took care of him for half a year.
