Chapter 2 The tiger lies in the deep mountains and listens to the wind howling, and the dragon lies in the shallows
In the 49th year of the calendar, in the summer, Yancheng Gu family.
Back then, the head of the Gu family was anxiously pacing in the courtyard, constantly watching the people coming in and out of the house.
In the house were his wife and his soon-to-be-born child. In addition to his nervousness, he was more of an eager joy of becoming a first-time father.
The head of the Gu family is not very old, his face is as white as jade, he looks like Pan An, but he doesn't have a beard, he used to be a person who focused on cultivation wholeheartedly, but now he knows that his identity is about to happen.
Because from now on, he will no longer be just the head of the Gu family, nor the husband of the newlywed Yan'er a few years ago, now he is about to become a father, and his first child is about to be born.
When Wen Po came out of the house with the bloodstained child waiting to be fed, she excitedly raised the child and said in a hoarse voice to the head of the Gu family: "Master Gu, it's a boy." β
Looking at the boy, Gu Yao was so excited that he didn't know what to say.
And just then, he noticed that the weather around him had become cold, and a snowflake had fallen abruptly and landed in front of his eyes.
When the snowflake fell on the child's forehead, the child stopped crying, and opened his eyes and stretched out his little hand to grab the snowflake.
Gu Yao looked at the boy who didn't make the slightest cry in the heavy snow, and suddenly felt an inexplicable excitement.
He looked down and saw a ring-shaped birthmark on the boy's forearm on his right hand, which looked like a tattoo, like a trickling stream, around the blood-stained, but still jade-white arm.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
The kid seemed to sense that someone was looking at him, and his dark eyes also turned to look at Gu Yao, and thenβhe actually smiled.
The night before the child was born, Gu Yao saw Da Shun enter the house in his dream, so he named the child Gu Shun.
But this dream, Gu Yao didn't say it to anyone.
In fact, this is not the first time that there has been a vision of heaven and earth in Yancheng, because about three months ago, there was a great drought in the city, although the heat is not very rare in this Yancheng, but it is the first time that cultivators feel that the heat is unbearable, but compared to the current heavy snow, it is obvious that the latter has attracted everyone's attention more.
Gu Shun has always shown an unparalleled talent for cultivation since he was a child, and as he grew older, he gradually gained some understanding of the world...
In this world, everyone is cultivating, and the basic principles of cultivation lie in the key small worlds, everyone has a small world in their bodies, and the realm of the cultivators is included in it, the higher the realm, the more abundant the small heaven and earth Yuan power will be.
This cultivation system is very complex, and it is divided into six realms: Self, Mystery, Enlightenment, Earth Spirit, Star Drive, and Wuji, and each realm is divided into three levels: primary, middle, and upper.
And Wuji as a legendary realm, there are only a few people who enter this realm, it is the yearning of everyone's hearts, and those who enter the Wuji realm have touched the edge of the laws of heaven and earth, and in the records, only the founding emperor and the general are the existence of the Wuji realm.
At the same time, there are several attributes to distinguish between strength and weakness in this world battle: fire, wind, thunder, water, and darkness, and everyone has an attribute that the power of the source prefers.
Because of some chances, he even reached the photogenic realm of the self at the age of ten, although it was only the first realm, but there were very few people who reached the realm of the self at Gu Shun's age.
And as a child whose talent is far higher than others, he often shows his talent - his cultivation is faster than others, his comprehension is higher than others, and his rapid growth makes him targeted by people with a heart.
The old immortal in the eight alleys in the north of Yancheng City, although he smiled when he saw him on the surface, he knew that he had never been really good to himself.
He could feel that whenever he turned around, the old man would stare directly at his back with his vulture-like cloudy, greedy eyes.
Not only that old guy, but even the boss of the boat gang at the dock outside Yancheng City has been looking at him very strangely.
The Boat Gang is another major force outside the five major families in Yancheng, and no one can tell the origin of the Boat Gang boss.
But one thing everyone knows is that this boat gang boss is indeed very simple, and the one who can dominate the river of Yancheng must be a ruthless character.
It is said that when he first came to Yancheng, he passed the trial of the five major families without a little water, and killed all the leaders of the thirty-six river bandits around Yancheng in one night, and then moved Yancheng, but later he didn't know why, and suddenly died down, and the boat gang did not expand outward, nor did it regain its glory of the year, but only developed in Yancheng.
But the legend about him has never diminished, and some of the rising gangs don't know how powerful he is, and they don't know how thick they are to provoke, but in the end, they all sank forever in that river.
Gu Shun shook his head, and walked slowly to the noodle shop on the corner after coming out of Gu's mansion.
"Boss, bring me a bowl of Ten Kings Noodles. β
Since being greeted by Lao He that time, he has a warmth in his heart for Lao He's noodle restaurant, and this noodle restaurant seems to have a sense of mystery, at least for Gu Shun.
"Come on, little brother, any worries will disappear after a bowl of noodles. Lao He smiled and served a bowl of noodles.
It seems that Lao He is still a person who understands him very well, and he is one of the few people in Yancheng who is still looking at him.
"Don't always be sad in the future, eat my noodles, and you will meet good things. Lao He said lightly as if he could see through Gu Shun's thoughts.
Gu Shun put down his chopsticks with a sigh: "I can now see clearly some people and things that I couldn't see before, which is also a kind of harvest." β
"When faced with the temptation of spiritual practice, people can't help but want to take some shortcuts, and in their eyes, you are just a tool that they can use. Lao He continued to chop the beef without raising his head, although he looked thin, but he could cut the beef bones with a knife, which was not small.
However, in fact, staring at Gu Shun is far more than these people in the Ming Place, although Gu Shun never said, but he also knows that there are always many people who are worried about him, and no one does not want to know why he can cultivate so quickly to the level of his own self, even if it is a high level.
"But if I lose, I will have no use. β
In the battle with Ji Jia Ji Mi, his dantian was shattered by the other party, and since then he has become a waste person who can't practice, at this time, the gaze imposed on him has become disappointment, but after this disappointment, those eyes that are secretly watching him have gradually faded out of his life, but they are also a lot quieter.
"Boss, am I right?"
The boss scolded with a smile, "Little brother, I don't call the boss, my surname is He, you can call me Lao He." Also, do you think Lao Tzu, a noodle seller, can answer this question?"
"If you think it's right, then it's right. Yes, let's go on. β
Gu Shun ate a bowl of noodles and walked on the way home, not squinting.
As he walked past the tea shop, a young man in green clothes suddenly blocked his way and looked at him with a smile. Seeing that he was staring at him and raised his eyebrows, Gu Shun smiled and smiled in response.
He is Li Yuan, the boy of the Li family, and Gu Shun's playmate from childhood to adulthood.
Seeing Gu Shun treat himself like this, Li Yuan bit his lip, but he was a little unhappy, he has always been a big grinning person, and if he is unhappy, he will put it directly on his face.
However, at this time, several lightning bolts faintly flashed behind Li Yuan, mixed with a slight crackling sound, like the sound of wind and thunder.
