Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Brave Maiden

As soon as dawn was the next day, the villagers got up, some of them started to work in the fields, others continued to repair their houses, and everyone had their own business anyway.

There was only one man in the family where Gu Tian lived, his wife died early, his son went out, and he was the only one left.

"Early. Gu Tian got up and said hello to the old man.

"Morning, you're awake," the man smiled, his face was very peaceful and simple.

"I'll help you, uncle" Gu Tian snatched the hoe in his hand and helped him hoe the ground.

"No, no, you better have a good rest, it's not easy to escape. The man treated him as a fugitive and refused to let him work.

"It's okay, it's okay, I have a lot of strength. Gu Tian didn't explain, just smiled.

"Alas. Shaking his head, seeing that Gu Tian insisted on hoeing the ground, the man did not insist, and his body was not as good as day by day, and he was happy to rest.

"What's your name, young man? He took out a big pipe from the house, and the man squatted on the ground and chatted with Gu Tian.

"My name is Gu Tian. At this moment, Gu Tianhua became the boy next door, smiling shy and gentle.

"Well, don't call me uncle, my name is Wu Sangui, you can call me Uncle Gui, where is your home?"

"Gucun, I don't know if Uncle Gui has heard of it?"

"I've heard of it, it seems to be in a village far east, and there used to be a child surnamed Gu who passed through our village. Hearing that Gu Tian came out of the ancient village, Wu Sangui's smile deepened.

"Mmmm, I don't know what that person's name is?"

"It's like it's called Gu Le, I heard that he came out to practice, but then I don't know where he went. ”

"Uncle, what are those people doing?" Gu Tian pointed to the people repairing the houses in the distance.

"Oh, their house was destroyed by the earthquake yesterday, and it's being repaired, otherwise there would be no place to stay at night, hey. Wu Sangui took a puff of his cigarette and sighed.

"Oh. Gu Tian smiled, it turned out that it was because of himself last night that they suffered hardship.

Although it was an unintentional move, looking at the simple and unpretentious faces, the figures working hard under the scorching sun, Gu Tian had a feeling of emotion.

The strong are kings, the weak are destined to be sad, this world is so cruel.

He believed that those young men had also dreamed of being strong, but in the end they were defeated by reality, and they could only live that short period of time.

Thinking about Gu Village again, and thinking about the villagers who kept laughing at themselves because of their zero talent, Gu Tian felt a little uncomfortable and depressed in his heart.

The strong laugh at the weak, how did he ever know that there are stronger people who will laugh at them, and they are all very proud, which is really sad.

Thinking about it, the speed in his hands unconsciously accelerated, and after a dazzling operation, several acres of fields have been hoeed.

"The young man has so much strength?" Wu Sangui was also surprised.

"Uh-huh, is there anything else uncle needs to do?"

"Rest without you. Wu Sangui took a puff of his cigarette and said with a smile.

"Then I'll help them, I just don't have the strength to use it."

"Then thank you, the young man is so nice, he deserves to be from the ancient village. Wu Sangui seems to have a good impression of everyone who comes out of the village.

Gu Tian smiled, then walked over to the people and joined the ranks of building houses.

Because the damage last night was so serious, at least hundreds of houses were destroyed, and there were not many men in the village, more than 100 people, many of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled, and the pace of repair was very slow.

The villagers were grateful that Gu Tian could come to help, and some children even brought cold water from the house to quench his thirst.

Gu Tian felt the warmth and their enthusiasm, it turned out that he was not completely emotionless.

In recent times, he has found himself feeling more and more emotional, not knowing whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

"Me too, why do you want to do this, just bring some joy to life" Gu Tian smiled, and then continued to help repair the house.

In one morning, more than 40 rooms were repaired, which is relatively fast, and the wood used in the repaired houses was obtained from far away, and without Gu Tian's help, these could not be obtained.

At noon, the enthusiastic villagers invited Gu Tian to have a hearty lunch, and continued to work in the afternoon.

Soon the day was in the evening, and the houses of more than a hundred families were repaired, and they were all sitting in the compound smiling and chatting.

"Little brother, thank you so much today, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to get so many houses. ”

"Yes, I should thank my little brother, he really helped us a lot. ”

"How old is the little brother this year, is he married?" said some villagers suddenly, almost making Gu Tian spit out the tea in his mouth.

Although his face looks very immature, his figure is no different from that of a teenager, so these villagers will naturally regard him as a teenager, but no one will regard him as a six-year-old, because he doesn't look like it.

"No, I'm only six years old. Gu Tian said with a smile.

"No way, the little brother looks like he's a teenager. ”

"It's true, but I've been willing to grow up since I was a child, and I'm also very strong, by the way, I'm a body refiner. Gu Tian had no choice but to explain with a smile, he could only use the body refiner to speak.

However, looking at the confused looks on the villagers' faces, they knew that they had never heard of any body refiners, but many people still believed that he was only six years old.

Because there was no need to deceive people about this, Gu Tian didn't seem to be a liar, so they soon believed it.

"Big brother, isn't the body refiner very powerful?" At this time, a little girl sitting in the woman's arms suddenly asked with a smile.

"Mmmm, you see my brother's strength today, that's a lot bigger. ”

"Then I'm going to become a body refiner too. A look of hope flashed in the little girl's eyes.

"Body refiners are very hard, you can become a Dharma cultivator, that path is not hard, as long as you have talent, you can become extremely powerful. Touching the little girl's head, Gu Tian said with a smile.

If a girl is trained all over the muscles, then it doesn't look so harmonious.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid of hard work, I want to be as strong as my big brother. The little girl clenched her little fist, and she looked so cute.

"Can you tell my brother why he wants to become stronger?" Gu Tian saw the firmness in the little girl's eyes, and knew in his heart that the little girl must have hidden a lot of things in her heart.

A little girl who should be innocent, but her eyes are not like those children, but she is very mature and sensible, and it must take a lot of things to do so.

"I want to protect my mom and dad and help them get rid of the bullies. The little girl said firmly.

At the same time, the villagers all lowered their heads in shame, obviously they were often bullied by the bullies in the little girl's mouth, but they did not have the determination to become stronger like the little girl, and they did not dare to resist.

Gu Tian naturally noticed and understood the cause of the incident, but he didn't say anything, but smiled.

"Big brother, can you teach me?" The little girl took the initiative to pull Gu Tian's clothes, which were given by Wu Sangui and his son's, so they were slightly overlooked.

"Big brother walks a different path than others, but if you are really not afraid of hard work, I can introduce you to a person who can teach you. He couldn't bear to look at the little girl uncomfortable, so Gu Tian had to comfort him.

It is true that his path cannot be replicated, and he cannot teach anyone, so he cannot teach little girls.

"Uh-huh, then can I follow the big brother in the future?"

"But your father?"

"Hmm" The little girl stopped squeaking, and looked at her father and mother with big eyes.

"It's okay child, go ahead, work hard to get stronger, we are old and have no energy, but you are different, you can become stronger, your future should not be in this small village, you are destined to spread your wings and soar. His father was an honest middle-aged man, and he said to the little girl in a serious tone.

"Remember to protect yourself from being bullied. The mother also smiled gently.

"Don't worry, I won't let her be bullied. Gu Tian also made a guarantee.

"Thank you, big brother. The little girl smiled happily.

When they saw that the little girl could become stronger, there were still many teenagers in the village who looked at Gu Tian with hope, they were the same as the little girl, they also wanted to become stronger, but they did not have the courage of the little girl.

The parents of those teenagers also looked at Gu Tian, and they also hoped to help their children.

However, Gu Tiandu didn't see it, after all, the most important thing for a body refiner is courage, and if he doesn't even have this bit of courage, the future road is destined to not go far, and he is not a bad person, so it is impossible to help them.

Seeing that Gu Tian didn't react, those teenagers and their parents lowered their heads, with pain, confusion, and a trace of remorse.

But none of this had anything to do with Gu Tian, and he wouldn't think about their thoughts, so after hugging the little girl, he left, returned to the firewood room, and slept.

This night, many villagers had difficulty sleeping, but the little girl slept happily, sleeping so sweetly for the first time in so many years.
