Chapter 34: Can Life Be as Hard as Iron?

A few days passed quietly, and the guests who came to this remote city, except for the old man and the girl in red a few days ago, were only Master Murong who came to help Gu Chensheng treat his injuries every day.

In the middle of the night, the cold wind blew, and in the small courtyard, Gu Chensheng carried a stone pier on each of his left and right arms, and his legs were bent in the shape of a horse's steps, as if he was a statue and did not move.

Sweat rolled down his forehead, turned into hot steam, and turned white when it was cold, and it looked like the whole person was smoking. Gritting his teeth tightly, Gu Chensheng silently calculated the time in his heart, combined with Master Murong's daily conditioning, coupled with the fact that his body has been soaked in all kinds of heavenly treasures since he was a child, compared to half an hour on the first day, he can now hold on to half a night with perseverance.

Since that day, after learning that the ring on his hand is an external star core, he has rekindled his hope, and his life these days has become, practicing talisman arrays during the day and exercising his body at night.

For this reason, the mysterious woman who wore the other half of the ring has not given him a lot of looks in the past few days.

The two of them who have a spiritual connection, so far, it is completely Gu Chensheng who has unilaterally obtained the benefits of a woman's strong spiritual power.

Looking at the diligent boy with some depression, although the mysterious woman knew that the faster his strength improved, the sooner she could help herself find a treasure that could restore her spirit, but she was so diligent that she even neglected to rest, but it made her a little unbearable.

Thinking that today was another sleepless night, the mysterious woman was resentful in her heart, she looked at Gu Chensheng, suddenly stretched out her green jade finger, and flicked it towards that side, the air fluctuated slightly, and under the night, a black mist burst out, and with a dull impact sound, the mist was like a fist, and smashed heavily on Gu Chensheng's chest.

The sharp pain hit, making Gu Chensheng gasp violently, he only felt that his internal organs were a little numb by this blow, he half-knelt on the ground, his hand touched his chest, and kept rubbing.

After a long time, from the half ring of his finger, a sudden flow of star power flowed down his palm into his chest, and then the sharp pain was slightly relieved.

"Whew, whew..."

After a few heavy breaths, Gu Chensheng raised his head, looked in the direction of the mysterious woman, showed his white teeth, and said with a smile: "Why did you show mercy today?"

Looking at the young man who had regained his self-confidence in the past, the mysterious woman was also rare and did not mock, and said lightly: "If you are too seriously injured today, I am afraid that it will affect tomorrow's star guide ceremony, so rest early." ”

Nodding slightly, Gu Chensheng also slowly stood up and walked towards the bucket on the side.

Seeing this, the mysterious woman turned into a cloud of black mist again and drilled into Gu Chensheng's eyebrows.

In the courtyard, Gu Chensheng was cleaning his body naked, although he was not yet a martial artist, but the physique he had exercised these days was much stronger than that of ordinary people.

At least in the snow, he will still feel like his skin will be frozen, but I am afraid that he will not have the opportunity to experience it again in the future.

After drying his body, Gu Chensheng picked up a neat stack of clothes that had already been prepared from the ground on the side and put them on.

Back in the room, Gu Chensheng, who had completely relaxed, suddenly felt a wave of tiredness hit him, and after a night without saying anything, he lay on the bed with his head back and fell asleep.

The next morning, before the morning fog cleared, a small figure came to the gate of the Gu family's compound.

Gu Chensheng, who didn't want to attract too many people's attention, didn't expect that when he walked into the courtyard, he actually met Gu Zheji, who had a conflict with him a few days ago.

The enemy is very red when they meet, although the two have not yet reached the point of enemies, but when it comes to the big issue of face, sometimes they will even divide life and death.

"Gu Chensheng!" gritted his teeth and spit out the name, Gu Zheji didn't bother to pretend to be a humble gentleman, since that day after a verbal battle with this guy, Li Ying and her group of female classmates, although they returned to the imperial capital in a fit of anger, but they also refused Gu Zheji's request to keep them to live in the Gu family temporarily, and several people found an inn in the city to live temporarily.

In this way, while making Gu Zheji depressed, he also completely held a grudge against Gu Chensheng.

It's just that the elders of the family have already spoken first, and whoever dares to touch Gu Chensheng in private will deal with whoever the family law is ruthless.

"What's the matter, isn't it at the cost of sacrificing your legs to climb the big tree of the Dragon Kiln Sect, hum, this time the waste has really become a waste. Spit out this sentence coldly, Gu Zheji glanced at Gu Chensheng and continued to laugh: "I originally thought that you were timid for refusing to accept the challenge of my clan, but now I know that even if you dare, it is difficult to climb into the ring?"

The young man who was looking forward to seeing Gu Chen's angry and ruined appearance in his heart only hated that today's scene could not be seen by Li Ying and the others, and at the same time, he had some regrets that he couldn't beat Gu Chensheng with his own hands.

Gu Chensheng didn't know what the young man was thinking, so his ridicule of only the word "waste" from beginning to end really couldn't be compared with the mysterious woman's just right "idiot".

Not bothering to argue with him anymore, Gu Chensheng waved his hand and walked straight towards the courtyard.

"I really don't know if the incense of your vein has suffered some retribution! Uncle Gu I is famous, and he actually married your mother's mourning star!"

Gu Chensheng's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at the young man who was a little angry.

Seeing that he finally had a reaction, Gu Zheji sneered and said, "You don't really think that you are born in the main house, right? This matter is originally a secret that everyone knows, and the reason why it is called a secret is because only you don't know about this matter." ”

"After Patriarch Gu married your mother, the main house was killed by her, if your mother hadn't been pregnant with you back then, she would have been buried alive because of the clan rules!"

Speaking of these family secrets that he had heard from the Great Elder, Gu Zheji slowly walked towards Gu Chensheng and continued: "I originally thought that you would be the hope of the family, but who would have thought that sacrificing the cultivation resources of our sons and nephews in exchange for being a waste!"

"Alas, you succeeded. ”

"What did you say!"

Sure enough, no matter what world you are in, insulting your parents is always the most effective and inferior method. Looking at Gu Zheji who came to him, Gu Chensheng bowed slightly, and the leg strength that he had cultivated in Zamabu these days instantly exploded with the experience of his previous life.

Even a human-level fourth-grade powerhouse is extremely difficult to react to in the face of such a sneak attack.

With a pig-like wail, Gu Zheji bent down, and his originally handsome face instantly turned from blue to white, and finally turned red because of his breathing.
