The afterglow of the setting sun was projected on his face like fireworks, and the beating light and shadow made his facial features deep and dignified, even if he was only a young child.

"Oh, isn't that the genius of the Gu family? It is said that he is the most talented cultivator in the history of Yancheng, and he was not like this before. ”

"Don't you know, hey, let me tell you quietly, he has been smashed by Ji Kou of the Ji family, and now he has become a waste. ”

"Shhhhh ”

"Cut, what if I want to be loud, he's already a waste, aren't you afraid he won't make it? ”

"That's right, but his father is the head of the Gu family, and his miserable appearance can make his father's face shameful. ”

The gossip around him reached Gu Shun's ears, just like a bamboo stick piercing the wound in his heart, and the wound that was healing became more and more painful.

In the past, if someone dared to talk about him in front of him, he would definitely fight back.

But now, he didn't say anything, the young man's immature expression became blank, and only then did his black and white eyes reveal his original aura, his name was Gu Shun.

Gu Shun walked all the way, and the mean words of these people seemed to sound to him coming from a distant place, and the lonely and thin figure was gradually stretched on the road under the sunset.

He frowned, as if thinking about something.

Occasionally looking up at the sky, the sky is golden, at the bottom of the canopy, the golden yellow is the heaviest, and even precipitates some sharp bright orange, and above the golden yellow, there is a layer of light blue, which is the freshly washed sky.

There are no mountains in Yancheng, only continuous plains. In the evening sky, it looked as if the sun had fallen to the ground as if it were running to death in desperation.

"Ah, look, that's the apricot girl of the Dark Fragrance Pavilion. ”

I saw that behind Gu Shun, a beautiful woman walked up, wearing light blue tulle, with a layer of light veil on her face, and her steps followed behind.

"Shhh, be careful, Xingniang is a disciple of Liu Niang of the Dark Fragrance Pavilion, and she has reached the primary realm of the Xuan Confusion Realm. ”

"Well, she looks so young, it's unbelievable. ”

"Shhh ”

Xingniang stopped behind Gu Shun and whispered, "Brother Gu Shun." ”

Gu Shun stopped, looked back, and saw a gentle smile on the pretty and beautiful face behind him, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "I am like this now, how can I be qualified to let you call me that." ”

"Brother Gu Shun, a momentary success or failure is not forever!"

Xingniang said softly, although she couldn't see her face under the light veil, she could see her anxiousness.

"Hehe, a momentary success or failure, do you think I still have a chance?" Gu Shun looked at the crowd of onlookers not far away who were pointing and pointing with strange eyes, and his heart sank.

Looking at Gu Shun's self-abandoning expression now, Xingniang said with a wonderful look: "Brother Gu Shun, a broken dantian does not mean that your life is ruined, Xingniang has a hunch that you can not only recover your past strength, but also achieve greater glory..."

"Hmm..." Seeing Xingniang take off the light veil, Gu Shun's face also turned red, and before he could react, Xingniang had already re-wrapped the veil, bowed slightly to Gu Shun, and turned to leave...

In this short moment, Gu Shun felt a kind of warmth and a kind of trust.

Just when Gu Shun walked to a noodle shop on the corner of the street, the owner of the noodle shop opened the steaming cauldron and shouted: "Good noodles, ten kings of noodles, ten cents for a bowl, young man, look at your listlessness, eat my ten kings noodles, discipline you, do you want to try a bowl!"

"Forget it, thank you!" Gu Shun looked at the noodle stall owner, hesitated for a moment, and then walked down to the outskirts.

"Hey, young man, remember to eat my Shiwang noodles next time you're in a good mood, my Lao He noodles are a must. ”

On the outskirts of Yancheng, Gu Shun's thin body looked a little gloomy in the background of the setting sun.

Gu Shun sat on the ground, revealing his right arm, on which was a dark ring-shaped birthmark, which looked natural, as if it was a delicate tattoo.

When the afterglow shone on Gu Shun's right arm, there was a subtle spatial change above, and when you looked closely, it should be an imperceptible distortion of the light when it hit the birthmark on his right arm.

On the side of the red black land sunken skyline, Gu Shun looked at the sunset but did not have any expression, and after a long time, he gently stretched out his left hand and stroked his bare right arm, when his fingers rubbed the birthmark, he didn't know what he was thinking, but the thick black brow wrinkled tighter.

He knew that he had now become a piece of waste, at least in the eyes of others, and that he had become the object of ridicule.

The sun has sunk more than halfway down.

Gu Shun raised his eyebrows, and with this action of raising his eyebrows, the sunset light danced in his eyes, and even his originally indifferent facial features were also stained with some lively colors, and his immature face showed the loneliness of his youth.

But this color beat did not last long, and as the last rays of the setting sun disappeared into the sky, he knew that the overwhelming night was about to sweep in.

At this time, he stood up.

Before that battle, he was a genius who moved Yancheng, but the higher he stood, the harder he fell, and after this battle, he changed from a genius of the Gu family to a joke of the Gu family, and also became the laughing stock of the entire Yancheng.

Gu Shun once again looked at the embers of the sunset on the horizon in the distance, and there was no trace of turmoil in his heart.

The sun on the horizon had disappeared, but the fiery clouds in the sky still had some residual warmth, and their colors were changing in many ways, looking like the impact released during the battle, just like the battle that shattered his dantian small world just now.

Gu Shun slowly raised his right hand and covered his lower abdomen, he knew that from now on he would become a waste in other people's mouths, because his dantian was shattered and he could no longer continue to cultivate.

The person in front of him looked at him and sighed.

There is no cure for this kind of injury.

The first doctor in Yancheng, "Doctor Zhen", looked at him, his eyes were full of apology and pity, and that sigh seemed to close the door of his last glimmer of hope and announced his death sentence.

For cultivators, the shattering of the dantian is indeed like a death sentence.

Before this battle, he was a young genius known to everyone in the Gu family in Yancheng, and his tone was full of envy, but after that, when people talked about Gu Shun again......

He stood up, moved his muscles slightly, turned around, and walked home with the night sky on his back, the last clouds of fire still burning behind him, just like the anger in his eyes hidden in the night.

Has it become a wretched, hopeless waste?

Thinking of Xingniang's voice and smile when she parted, the corners of Gu Shun's mouth slowly hooked unconsciously.

The praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, and the future is unknown.

At the end of the sea, the sky is the shore, and the mountain is the peak.

He clenched his fists.
