Chapter Forty-Seven: Preparing to Leave

Lingjian!

Gu Qingzhou was lying on the stone table in the courtyard boredly, looking listless, as if he couldn't arouse interest no matter what he did.

"Squeak!"

The wooden door opened, and the drunkard, trembling with his dark cane, walked out of the thatched hut and sat down at the stone table.

He picked up the teapot and just wanted to pour a cup of tea, but found that the teapot was empty after pouring it for a long time.

He glanced at Gu Qingzhou, and then deliberately coughed dryly. Seeing that the latter didn't react, he couldn't help but raise the volume again and cough dryly.

Gu Qingzhou looked up at him, his eyes were empty and listless.

The drunkard opened the lid of the teapot and pointed at him, "Why don't you go and add tea to the teacher?"

"Oh"

Gu Qingzhou agreed perfunctorily, then picked up the teapot and walked towards the thatched house.

"This kid!" the drunkard muttered as he looked at Gu Qingzhou's departing figure.

Not long after, Gu Qingzhou returned to the courtyard with the teapot in his hand, and after putting the refilled teapot in front of the drunkard, he sat aside and lay on the table.

"You stinky boy, don't you pour tea for your teacher?" sighed, and the drunkard could only take out the teacup with his own hands and fill it himself.

Gu Qingzhou raised his head lazily and suddenly asked, "Old man, what is the outside world like?"

The drunkard's hand holding the teacup shook obviously, and the tea inside almost spilled. He looked a little vicissitudes, and his gaze looked in a distant direction, which was the direction of Middle-earth.

"The world out there is dangerous. The drunkard's eyes flickered, and he said.

"Dangerous, is it more dangerous than the wilderness?" Gu Qingzhou couldn't help but look up and ask, he saw the drunkard's flickering gaze, and he was suspicious.

The drunkard exhaled a long breath and said meaningfully: "The wilderness seems dangerous, there are all kinds of fierce beasts and demons here, and even the darkness at night is full of unknown fears, but what are these compared to people's hearts?"

"In fact, the real crisis is not outside, but in the hearts of the people!"

Gu Qingzhou was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but be a little confused, although there were more crises outside, he still wanted to go out and have a look, he wanted to see the snow-capped mountains in the Western Regions, the grasslands in the north of Shuo, and the sea at the southern end. If he wants to personally appreciate all kinds of customs and customs, if he stops just because he is afraid of danger, and hides in this small wilderness for the rest of his life, he is really unwilling.

If you don't dare to face it just because you're afraid of danger, then what kind of practice and what kind of exercises do you practice? Since it is against the sky, it is destined to face many dangers, and only by bravely breaking through the past can we cultivate supreme supernatural powers and achieve true gods.

"Old man, I'm not afraid of danger, if I don't dare to move forward just because I'm afraid of danger, then what's the use of me cultivating this way, how can I explore the mystery of my life experience in the future, besides, I said that I will help you take revenge!"

The young man's handsome face smiled slightly, with infinite charm and confidence, he firmly believed that one day he would stand at the top of the world, would help the drunkard avenge, and would personally go down to the capital to explore his own life.

Since the last time he dreamed of entering the hidden capital, what Gu Qingzhou saw and heard in the ghost world made him have to firmly believe that in the ghost world, he must be able to find the mystery of his life experience, the judge and the dark lord, the old man and even Meng Po on the bridge, they must know something.

When the drunkard saw the young man's smile, he seemed to be infected by him, and he seemed to see his young self and couldn't help but smile slightly.

In the end, the drunkard sighed deeply and said, "You have grown up after all, and it is not a way to always follow me, it is indeed time to go out and experience and see!"

"I think there is still a month left before the enrollment day of the Holy Academy in the Holy Capital of Middle-earth, why don't you go to the Holy Academy to study!"

"But...... What should I do if I leave your old man's house?" Gu Qingzhou suddenly had a sour corner of his eyes, and he saw the reluctance in the drunkard's heart.

The drunkard habitually touched the wine gourd on his waist, for some reason, today's tea is always a little boring, not as strong as the taste of fine wine.

"What's the matter? I can't take care of myself anymore?"

The drunkard deliberately turned a fierce face and said, "Stinky boy, do you look down on my old man?" I will tell you that without you, I will only live a more chic life. ”

"Hey, old man, you speak with your conscience, for so many years, I have been getting up early every day to cook for you, chatting with you every day to relieve boredom, and you still dislike me. Gu Qingzhou pretended to be very aggrieved.

The drunkard lay directly on the chaise longue beside him, and after just glancing at it, he drank the wine in the gourd.

Gu Qingzhou looked at him with an aggrieved face like this, and waited until the drunkard put down the wine gourd, and even smacked his mouth, ignoring himself completely.

"Hey, old man, do you have a conscience!"

"Conscience, can you eat it?" said the drunkard, narrowing his eyes.

"......" Gu Qingzhou was directly speechless.

"Master!"

Gu Qingzhou's face suddenly became serious, and there was a little melancholy in his heart, and he didn't know whether to ask this question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

"Whew!" he let out a long exhale, still determined to ask.

"Back then, what happened to your Dao Sect Sanjie?"

The wine gourd that the drunkard had just raised instantly froze, his expression looked a little unnatural, and there was even a hint of pain in his eyes.

"The past is gone, so why mention it again?"

"But ......"

Gu Qingzhou's mouth moved, and he wanted to say something, but he was directly interrupted by the drunkard, and his expression looked a little more stern: "No need to say it again!"

Seeing that the drunkard was reluctant to speak, Gu Qingzhou could only put the matter down for the time being. Originally, he wanted to find out from the drunkard what happened that year, to find out who the drunkard's enemy was, and how his leg was broken.

Now, however, it seems a little unlikely. I didn't expect that so long had passed since that incident, and the drunkard still didn't want to mention it again, and it seemed that that incident really hit him hard.

Gu Qingzhou shook his head slightly, he could only put these down for the time being, since the drunkard can't work here, then he can only think of a way later.

"It seems that after arriving in Middle-earth in the future, I will have to take time to go to the Dao Sect!" Gu Qingzhou said secretly in his heart. Since the drunkard didn't want to say these things in person, then he went to find the current Dao Sect Master, and he must know about it.

The drunkard was still lying on the chaise longue, but he closed his eyes, looking like he was closing his eyes to recuperate, and he slowly spoke: "In the past two days, you will pack up and prepare to go to the Holy Capital, there is still a month to go, except for the distance, it should be about the same!"

Gu Qingzhou looked at the drunkard blankly, unable to speak for a long time, after all, for sixteen years, he has been by his side every day, if he is not there, will he take care of himself.

"You'd better worry about yourself first, but when you arrive in Middle-earth, you'll have to be in danger everywhere, and if you want to live, you'll have to be up to the top of your lungs. Anyway, I, the old man, am fishing and drinking wine every day in the wilderness, and I am very comfortable to go to the city to listen to a little song!" the drunkard squinted directly.

Gu Qingzhou was still worried about the life of a drunkard after he left, but he didn't expect that this bad old man had already thought about it, and he lived comfortably by himself, and he was still in the way of his eyes, which made Gu Qingzhou very depressed.

"Okay, don't be here with the pestle if it's okay, hurry up and do what!" the drunkard covered his face with his sleeve, looking as if he was going to take a nap.

Gu Qingzhou had no choice but to pout and leave the place in a sneer.

When Gu Qingzhou walked away, the drunkard suddenly got up, looked at his distant figure, sighed slightly, and said to himself: "It's time for you to go out and see the world, don't let me down!"
