Chapter 43: His Tenderness

Gu Tingjun followed Su Tang'an for a while, and saw that although she was limping and injured her feet, he didn't mean to ask her for help at all, sighed silently, took a few steps forward, and picked up Su Tang'an from behind.

Su Tang'an was taken aback, frowned and said, "What do you want to do?"

"I'm soft-hearted, and I can't see a woman hurt in front of me and pretend to be strong. Gu Tingjun said, "Don't struggle, unless you want to force me to use a rough one." ”

Su Tang'an has been injured many times in her last life, but every time she has been silently dealt with, she has long been used to healing alone, and she doesn't need others at all.

Gu Tingjun hugged Su Tang'an and looked around, found a waist-high stone and placed Su Tang'an on it, then squatted down, held her injured right foot, raised her eyes and said, "It's all swollen, if you don't deal with it, I'm afraid it will leave sequelae." ”

Su Tang'an didn't want to owe him a favor, wanted to take his foot back, and said lightly: "This is my business, I don't need you to care." ”

Gu Tingjun grabbed her ankle and chuckled: "Why do you like to be reckless so much?

He took off Su Tang'an's shoes and socks, her feet were small and exquisite, very good-looking, they didn't look like a pair of feet of a martial arts practitioner, the ankles were already red and swollen, like a small steamed bun, he took out a brown bottle from his arms, poured out some liquid, and then applied it to the red and swollen ankles, slowly rubbing them.

"When did you practice martial arts?" Gu Tingjun asked, "Gong You, what did you say that you were struck by thunder, and then enlightened, I definitely won't believe it, you have been pretending to be stupid all these years and it makes sense, but I don't understand, how did you have the opportunity to learn martial arts? Or do you know a peerless master who often sneaks into the Hou Mansion and teaches you martial arts?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

"I'm curious. ”

Su Tang'an lowered his eyes and said lightly: "There are some things I don't know how to say, and you may not believe it when you say it, so it's better not to say it." If you and I could really be friends in the future, I might consider telling you, but not now. ”

"You're very good at business, and if I want to know your secrets, I'll have to be honest with you, and this sacrifice is too great. Gu Tingjun smiled, "But before that, I can try to find out your secret." ”

"Whatever you want. Su Tang'an said lightly.

After Gu Tingjun felt that it was about the same, he put on his shoes and socks for Su Tang'an, and sighed: "This is the first time that this son has served people like this." ”

After putting on his shoes, he put Su Tang'an's feet in the palm of his hand, raised his eyes and smiled: "How precious are women's feet, from today onwards, are you considered my person?"

"Do you think I'll care about this?" Su Tang'an moved his ankle to himself, feeling much better.

"That's right, you haven't been the slightest shy since you started!" Gu Tingjun smiled slightly, "Or you never think of yourself as a woman, women have the irreplaceable charm of women, if you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to get married." ”

"Something to do with you?"

"Of course there is, don't you still have me if you can't get married?"

Su Tang'an didn't want to have any more verbal disputes with Gu Tingjun, anyway, he couldn't spit out anything better from his mouth, so he jumped off the stone and prepared to leave.

Gu Tingjun stepped in front of her first, then squatted down and motioned her to his back with his eyes.

Su Tang'an wanted to ignore it, but Gu Tingjun smiled: "Or do you prefer me to hold you?" Actually, I like it a lot. I'm not kidding you, it's easy to go down this cliff, it's hard to climb up now, it's a little difficult in your state, you can only find another way, there is no road in this mountain, and it's very rugged, you don't want your injuries to worsen, right?"

Su Tang'an sighed softly and leaned on Gu Tingjun's back, Gu Tingjun smiled with satisfaction: "An obedient girl is a good girl." ”

"Shut up. ”

Gu Tingjun carried Su Tang'an on his back for an afternoon, until the sky darkened, and the orange remnant sun sprinkled down the road, and his forehead was already covered with a layer of fine sweat, but his steps were quite brisk.

After walking for a while, a grass house appeared in front of him, Gu Tingjun said with a smile: "This hanging bottom is so remote, I didn't expect that there are still people living there, I thought we were going to sleep in the wilderness tonight, but now it is not bad to have a place to stay." ”

Gu Tingjun carried Su Tang'an to the outside of the grass house, which was very dilapidated, it looked like it had been uninhabited for many years, and there were thick cobwebs and broken traces everywhere.

"Could it be a house used by the Orion of the Mountains?" asked Su Tang'an.

"Who knows. Such a remote place, such a dilapidated house, won't it be haunted?" Gu Tingjun smiled, "Are you afraid of ghosts? I have not been afraid of anything since I was a child, I am afraid of ghosts, if there are really ghosts, you have to protect me!"

Inside the courtyard was a withered bamboo forest, and next to it was a simple kitchen, the utensils of which had been covered with thick dust.

The two entered the house, Su Tang'an was shocked, and found a somewhat familiar and somewhat unfamiliar pattern on the wall, why is this so similar to the pattern of the Lin family, but there are still some slight differences, it seems that a person drew it with his own memory, but the details are not clear to remember.

She observed Gu Tingjun's reaction, and seeing that his attention was not on the pattern on the wall, she immediately picked up a stick on the ground and destroyed the pattern on the wall.

"What are you doing?"

"There are spiders on the walls. Although Su Tang'an found a reason.

Who lived in this house, and what does it have to do with the Lin family?

Su Tang was relieved with a burst of doubt, and glanced around the room, this room was very simple, there were almost no superfluous decorations and furniture, and nothing special was found.

"I'm curious about the identity of the owner now. Gu Tingjun looked out the window and said leisurely, "Come and see." ”

Su Tang'an walked over and looked out the window, there happened to be a withered yellow bamboo forest outside the window, but he could still vaguely see something strange.

"It seems to be some kind of formation. ”

"Not bad. Gu Tingjun said, "I haven't noticed it when I came in outside, the bamboo forest in this courtyard is a kind of formation, but it has not been maintained for a long time and has become invalid, if the power of the formation is still there, you and I are afraid that it will be difficult to enter this house." ”

Pattern plus formation, who is the owner of this house?

Su Tang became more and more uneasy, could it be that there was still anyone in the Lin family alive?

Or is it something to do with another legend?

The reason why the queen will do something to the Lin family is because the Lin family knows a secret, a secret about the treasure, but whether it is grandfather, father and several uncles, they have never opened their mouths to the queen's coercion and temptation, in order to prevent this secret from being known by other people, the queen killed the entire Lin family. And Li Changlong rescued himself, and then cultivated hypocritically, just to learn the secret from his own mouth.

In his previous life, he drew the patterns in his memory and told him the legends he had heard from his grandfather.

Regarding the treasure map, the Lin family only has half of it, and the other half is said to be in the hands of a madman, and no one knows where the identity of this madman is.

And if nothing else, Li Changlong is definitely looking for this madman now.

I don't know if this has something to do with the madman.

In any case, any traces related to the mad Dao people could not be known by Li Changlong.

"Are you going to settle here tonight or find another place?" Gu Tingjun asked.

"Let's find somewhere else. Su Tang'an said lightly, "I don't like this place." ”

The two of them came out of the grass house, Su Tang'an hesitated, turned around and went back and took out the flint and steel, and burned the grass house with a fire.

Gu Tingjun sighed twice and said, "Even if you don't like this place, it won't burn, right?

"No need!" Su Tang'an said lightly, limping forward.

Gu Tingjun took a few steps forward to help her, "Let's go, it's the first time I've met such a stubborn woman as you." ”

The two of them had been walking for about half an hour before they heard footsteps in front of them, and several men were walking in their direction with torches.

The two of them hid in the trees, looking at the clothes of several people who seemed to be hunters in the mountains, and rushed over when they saw the firelight, there should be a village ahead.

After walking for about half an hour, there was a small mountain village, about a dozen households, because the sky was not yet safe to darken, the villagers were shaking their fans in front of the door to enjoy the coolness, looking at the place with fire in front of them, and talking in a whisper.

Su Tang'an and Gu Tingjun observed that the villagers here didn't know martial arts, and they should just be ordinary people, so they found a family to stay in.

"My sister and I strayed into this place, got lost, and wanted to spend the night and continue on our way tomorrow night. Gu Tingjun said.

The old man was very surprised, and said in surprise: "We have not had outsiders set foot in this small place for many years, how did you get in? ”

The old man brought tea again, sat down opposite the two, and said: "We are too remote here, it is difficult for outsiders to find the way, and it is not easy for you to go out, so let's let a young man take you out tomorrow, and you can rest well tonight." ”

"Thank you. ”

The old man's wife thought that Su Tang'an and Gu Tingjun were husband and wife, so she quickly cleaned up a room and warmly invited the two to live.

Gu Tingjun was about to explain, and after seeing Su Tang'an thanking the eldest lady without any objection, he shrugged his shoulders, swallowed his words back, and followed into the house, and said with a smile: "Lady, there is only one bed here, how can we sleep tonight?"
