Chapter Twenty-Nine: Becoming a Shield
After speaking, looking at Gu Jiu's slightly surprised eyes, Gu Heng added: "In the future, the Yuanxin Fruit Tree will bear fruit again, and if Sister Jiu can't finish eating, we will also hand it over to the family." ”
In fact, in Gu Heng's heart, he didn't want to hand in any of them, even if the Yuan Xin Fruit had no effect after eating it once, but his purpose in grabbing the Yuan Xin Fruit was to give Gu Jiu a fruit to eat.
After all, in Gu Heng's heart, Gu Jiu is undoubtedly the most important, she alone occupies the nine places in Gu Heng's heart, and the remaining little bit is given to Gu Xun, the master, and Gu Jin, the senior brother.
As for the other Gu family members, Gu Heng didn't care at all, but he couldn't help it, the only three people he cared about were the Gu family, and they all hoped that the Gu family would be good, plus the things were handed over to the family, and the family would not take them in vain, which made Gu Heng reluctantly open this mouth.
Gu Jiu was really surprised by what Gu Heng said, after all, in the past few years of getting along, Gu Jiu also knew that Gu Heng was in front of her and in front of others, which were fundamentally the same thing.
In that heart, there are only three people, including her and her father and brother, and as for the other clansmen, even if they get along with him day and night, they are just familiar strangers, full of indifference.
But unexpectedly, she also knew that Gu Heng could say that she could hand over the Yuan Xin Fruit that she couldn't eat to the family, instead of telling her to keep it and give it to anyone, she was thinking about her and knowing that she cared about the family very much.
Gu Jiu's heart couldn't help but be sour and soft: "That's really thank you Xiaoheng." ”
Gu Heng was a little unhappy: "Sister Jiu never needs to say thank you to me." ”
After a pause, he said again: "Actually, I gave something to Sister Jiu, and that is Sister Jiu's, what Sister Jiu wants to do, it will be up to Sister Jiu to be happy." ”
Gu Jiu knew this truth, but in the cultivation of the highest is no more than the first heaven of the ninth order of the heavenly realm, as a Yuan Xin Fruit that can make the Heavenly Realm nine levels or less, as long as he eats one, no matter what realm, he can break through and increase the cultivation of a second level, it is really a treasure of heaven and earth that can be used from small to large, from high to bottom, and it is a first-class rarity.
So even if the Yuanxin Fruit Tree and the Yuanxin Fruit were given to her by Gu Heng, Gu Jiu couldn't really treat them as his own and dispose of them at will.
Gu Heng only smiled when he saw his own sister Jiu, and didn't speak, he knew that his sister Jiu didn't agree with his words, it had always been like this, the things he gave were generally fine, but if there was a little value, his own sister Jiu would not use it easily, and he always felt that using it would make him suffer.
But Gu Heng felt that the one who suffered the most was obviously his sister Jiu, you know, he relied on the merit and luck of his sister Jiu for food, and it was also because of his sister Jiu's merit and luck that his luck gradually improved.
Even if he doesn't absorb much merit and luck every time, but in five years, it adds up to a lot, which is a very large amount, and for many years afterward, he is obviously inseparable from the merit and luck on Sister Jiu's body.
Even if Gu Heng's absorbed merit and luck were growing for Gu Jiu all the time, he didn't need to care about it at all.
Gu Heng knew that when he said this, Gu Jiu would not agree, just like every time he told Sister Jiu, who felt that one of his children was at a loss, that he didn't feel that he was at a loss.
So Gu Heng didn't say anything, just skipped the question of the Yuanxin Fruit Tree: "By the way, for so long, I haven't asked Sister Jiu how this cultivation is?" ”
Gu Jiu smiled: "It's already the eighth order of the Heavenly Realm." ”
This is still the result of Gu Jiu's deliberate suppression in the past five years, the experience of his previous life, plus Gu Jiu's own qualifications and her special physique, the body of the Ice Phoenix, and the merit and luck that are increasing all the time, if he hadn't suppressed it, Gu Jiu's cultivation would have been above the fourth level of the Heavenly Rank.
After all, cultivation that is extremely difficult for others is nothing more easy for Gu Jiu than to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth.
Gu Heng's tone was pleasantly surprised: "Sister Jiu is so powerful!" ”
These words made Gu Jiu pinch Gu Heng's face angrily: "Why are these words so insincere when they come out of your mouth?" ”
You must know that Gu Heng is now also a cultivator of the second and eighth orders of the Heavenly Realm, and he is also polishing his cultivation to the point where he can no longer suppress and then break through, but Gu Heng's first cultivation after he first introduced qi into his body is the first and sixth order of the Heavenly Realm, while Gu Jiu is the first and ninth order of the Heavenly Realm.
The foundation of the two is also solid and deep, and now their cultivation is still comparable, and the time for Gu Jiu's breakthrough is nearly a year slower than Gu Heng's - Gu Heng only entered the trial tower after a breakthrough.
Gu Heng took Gu Jiu's hand and coquettishly said: "What's the matter, Xiao Heng couldn't be more sincere!" ”
Gu Heng felt that it was really good for him to break through earlier than Sister Jiu, and now his level of the trial tower had also been raised to the same level as Sister Jiu's, and he was even younger than Sister Jiu, although they had cultivated for the same length of time, but those people outside would not care about this, they would only see that he was younger than Sister Jiu, but his cultivation was the same as Sister Jiu, and the level of breaking into the trial tower was also average, so they would pay more attention to him.
In the future, when Sister Jiu goes out to practice, there will be fewer crises condensed on her.
Gu Heng's mind was full of thoughts, but Gu Jiu was not unaware of his thoughts, she lowered her eyes and looked at Gu Heng: "Xiao Heng, you are still a child, and there are some things that you don't need to bear." ”
Gu Heng also looked at Gu Jiu seriously: "But I'm already growing up!" Sister Jiu, you think it's something I don't need to bear, but I'm willing to take it. ”
I am willing to incarnate as a shield to protect you, and I am also willing to incarnate as a blade to slash all the malice that rushes towards you-Gu Jiu read this sentence from Gu Heng's eyes.
Gu Jiu was silent, and only sighed softly after a long time: "When Xiao Heng bears this, can he guarantee his safety?" Feel happy? ”
Gu Jiu really wanted to stop Gu Heng's behavior of attracting other people's attention to himself, although in the Haoyuan Continent, he could already take care of things at the age of ten, but if there were adults in the family who could do things sincerely, he would not really let a half-grown teenager take care of it.
In addition, Gu Jiu came through time, in the world she was in at the beginning, ten-year-old Gu Heng was still a child, and what she needed was protection, not letting him touch the danger.
But what made Gu Jiu helpless was that looking at Gu Heng and reading what he wanted to say from his eyes, Gu Jiu couldn't afford to refuse.
Gu Heng is still a child, but he already has a firm belief and what he thinks must be done.
Moreover, the lessons of the four elders of the Gu family, Gu Jing's past, are still there, and they can't do what they want to do, their thoughts are not accessible, they form obsessions, they have demons, and their cultivation is stagnant.
In particular, Gu Heng was a little more paranoid than the fourth elder Gu Jing.
Gu Heng's eyes lit up, he originally thought that since Sister Jiu proposed it, she would definitely refuse, but he didn't expect to let him pass the test so easily: "Sister Jiu, don't worry, since I introduced qi into my body and caused a vision, Shizun has placed a shadow guard next to me, and safety is not a problem." ”
"Moreover, I have a lot of all kinds of weapons, pills, charms, and array disks on me."
"I'm very happy to be able to take on some things for Sister Jiu, I'm very happy." Sister Shangjiu, who can help, how can he not be happy?
The daughter is not troublesome, the apprentice is not troublesome, and the son does not look like a worry-free person, after thinking about it and tossing and turning, Gu Xun arranged the 'shadow' by the side of each of them.
It doesn't make sense for the five elders of the Gu family to know it, one is that Gu Jiu and Gu Heng are extremely talented, which attracts visions, it is the light of the future of the Gu family, Gu Jin is also not bad, or the young master of the Gu family, and it is natural for the 'shadow' to protect them.
Second, the 'Shadow' is originally a force that belongs to the head of the family, and whoever the head of the family wants to give it to, it is the freedom of the head of the family, so what do they do?
Gu Heng looked at Gu Jiu with blank eyes, what else could Gu Jiu do, and sighed slightly: "You've thought it through, then it's up to you." ”
Gu Heng laughed, revealing two pointed little tiger teeth: "By the way, Sister Jiu, Shizun said, after you get out of the customs, you want us to rush to Mocheng, there are ancient ruins born in Mocheng, Shizun leads the team, senior brother, Wen Sheng is among them." ”
Ancient ruins of Mocheng? That's a big hole! Gu Jiu's expression suddenly changed slightly: "When did it happen?" ”
"Just today." Gu Heng noticed Gu Jiu's expression, "Is there anything wrong with the ancient ruins of Mocheng?" ”
OK! Gu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's not an ancient relic at all, it's a refining furnace made by a madman who went mad!" ”
In the previous life, because of the so-called ancient ruins of Mocheng, one-third of the cultivators of the First Heaven were gone, including three of the four major families, and they also suffered heavy losses, and the elite of the family went to one percent.
You must know that every elite disciple in these big families has spent countless manpower and material resources to cultivate.
If it weren't for the merit and luck on Gu Jiu's body, he inadvertently shattered the formation and escaped with the Gu family, I am afraid that the Gu family would also have to suffer heavy losses.
This incident was the first time Gu Jiu faced death, which made her almost give birth to a demon, and she was quite impressed, even if it took tens of thousands of years, Gu Jiu did not forget it in the corner, so she thought about it for the first time after Gu Heng mentioned it.
Alchemy furnace? Sounds ominous...... Gu Heng was suddenly a little uneasy, he didn't know where Gu Jiu knew about the ancient ruins of Mocheng, but he believed Gu Jiu's words.
He should have told Gu Jiu about the ancient ruins of Mocheng as soon as possible, but he was greedy for the time he spent alone with Gu Jiu, and delayed talking about it until the end.
Gu Heng couldn't help but bow his head: "Sister Jiu, it's me who is not good......"
Gu Jiu interrupted Gu Heng's words: "What nonsense? It's not your fault, don't take it on yourself, you don't know what's going on with the ancient ruins of Mocheng. ”
Didn't she, the person who knows, also remember the matter of the ancient ruins of Mocheng under Gu Heng's reminder? Gu Jiu closed her eyes, the five years of peaceful life were too comfortable, she rarely thought about the things in her previous life, so much so that she knew that the ancient ruins of Mocheng were born at this time, but she didn't think about it.
