Douluo: I am Emperor Nian

Chapter 5
knock knock...

"Zheng'er, I'm coming in."

As Gu Rong said, he pushed open the wooden door.

In the simple house, Gu Zheng sat on the bed calmly with his legs crossed.

Gu Rong shook his head and put the tonic in his hand away.

"Buy him a futon next time."

he said softly.

He didn't expect that Gu Zheng, who was a little lazy before the age of six, would be so diligent after awakening his martial soul, and practiced meditation before hunting the soul ring.

It's just that he didn't tell Gu Zheng that practicing before hunting the soul ring was useless, because he was afraid of hurting Gu Zheng's hard work.

Just like that, Gu Rong sat on the chair next to him, propping his chin with one hand and staring at the night sky in a daze.

After sitting down, it was midnight.

Gu Zheng woke up from his practice.

Hunger came like a tide.

"Well."

He noticed the ancient banyan in the house.

"grandfather?"

Gu Zheng was a little puzzled, why was Gu Rong in his room?
Gu Zheng's voice recalled Gu Rong's thoughts, the latter chuckled lightly and said in a low voice, "Are you awake?"

"Um……"

"Cuckoo..."

Gu Zheng's face turned red, it was the first time his stomach growled today and he was the only one, but Gu Rong saw this embarrassing appearance in the middle of the night.

Gu Rong showed a kind smile, beckoned to Gu Zheng and said, "You're hungry, come over and have something to eat first."

At this time, Gu Zheng noticed several pots of vegetables behind Gu Rong.

Gu Zheng's heart warmed, he got out of bed and walked towards Gu Rong with bare feet.

Gu Rong had the grace of saving Gu Zheng's life. Back then, when he traveled into the Star Dou Forest, his body turned into the appearance of a baby.

Not to mention the wild beasts, just the simplest and most inconspicuous cold and fever can kill him.

At that time, it was Gu Rong who discovered him and brought him back, giving him a stable life.

This kind old man treated him and his juniors with an amiable appearance, and he also gave Gu Zheng the most warmth and care, treating him like his own child.

That's why Gu Zheng could call out that grandpa without any pressure.

The relationship between the two has never been blood, but family.

At the same time, he also secretly made up his mind that he must change the fate of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School being destroyed, Gu Rong and Chen Xin dying in battle.

Gu Zheng put down the bowl and chopsticks, and Gu Rong beside him laughed so hard that his wrinkles appeared, and asked, "How is it? How does it taste?"

"It's delicious." Gu Zheng said without hesitation, "It's just that I'm not full yet."

He could feel that this meal contained a lot of energy, which made him sixty percent full.

But it's not enough, Gu Zheng understands that these energies are not even enough for him to persist in practicing till dawn.

Even if you don't practice, you will be a little bit reluctant until dawn.

Although only one day had passed, Gu Zheng quickly figured out the approximate energy consumption.

Gu Rong naturally didn't know this, he smiled and said: "I made this thing specially for you, it's a great tonic, you can't eat too much."

Gu Zheng nodded calmly, it turned out that Gu Rong made it himself... No wonder he asked about the taste.

Having said that, in Gu Zheng's memory, this was the first time he made something for him to eat.

"not like this……"

Gu Zheng explained the general process of the matter to Gu Rong in detail, it was almost the matter that his body needed to consume a lot of energy.

After listening, Gu Rong nodded thoughtfully: "According to the information we have found, the main body martial soul is a process of developing the body, so it is reasonable that your body needs to consume a lot of energy."

Gu Zheng nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice, and echoed: "Well, I quit the cultivation precisely because my body couldn't bear it, and I couldn't continue to practice."

"Well then, you go out with me, and I'll make you something delicious."

As he spoke, Gu Rong stood up, stretched out his hand and waved a black vortex, and a black vortex appeared out of thin air.

Seeing this scene, Gu Zheng couldn't help being a little envious. Gu Rong's bone spirit can move through space.

Passing through the black hole, the old and the young came to a deep mountain and old forest.

This is the mountain range behind the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, as long as you pass through this mountain range, you can reach the Hunting Soul Forest behind.

Then, a streak of light cut across the sky and slowly landed in front of the two of them.

The person who came was Jian Douluo, Chen Xin.

He was dressed in white, his gray beard and long hair fluttered wildly with the air currents, and he himself stood upright like a long sword, with a pair of eyes that were not intimidating.

Under his feet is his accompanying long sword.

As the strongest sword soul master in the Douluo Continent, the sword naturally has more than one seven kills.

Gu Zheng smiled and waved to him, who also nodded slightly.

Chen Xin raised the tiger in her hand: "It's rare that you invite me out for supper, promise, a thousand and three hundred year old eight-ling tiger."

"Ahaha, this thing is not bad."

Gu Rong took the tiger with a smile, then took out a few long sticks from the soul tool, and skillfully strung them together.

Looking at the techniques, the two seem to have done this a lot.

"It's a pity that Fengzhi didn't come. The meat of the Baling Tiger is delicious, but it's rare to eat it once." Gu Rong said while processing.

"Fengzhi is worrying about Tiandou, alas."

Chen Xin turned her head and looked at Gu Zheng who was at the side, "Why is the little guy still up so late tonight? You still have to train with me tomorrow."

When Chen Xin spoke, her eyes narrowed slightly, although she looked smiling, but Gu Zheng felt a chill.

It's too scary, is this the aura of a Title Douluo level powerhouse?
Gu Zheng smiled resentfully: "Woke up from hunger, grandpa said he would bring me over to eat something good."

Gu Zheng didn't understand at all why he made Sword Douluo unhappy.

If he knew that Jian Douluo was holding a grudge because of Ning Rongrong's pounce this morning, he would probably kill him with a piece of tofu.

It can only be said that there is a little devil and a sword douluo controlled by his granddaughter. The combination of these two is simply invincible.

"Okay, okay, don't scare me." Gu Rong lit a fire and said with a smile.

As a close friend who has known him for many years, he naturally knew why Sword Douluo was upset, but he was also happy to see this, didn't you see that he smiled so much that he had two more wrinkles?

"Hmph." Chen Xin snorted coldly, and sat down on a convenient stone by the fire in displeasure.

"Grandpa, did I make Grandpa Chen angry?"

Gu Zheng approached Gu Rong, pulled his clothes and asked in a low voice.

But he forgot that the two people present were both Titled Douluo level powerhouses, not to mention such close whispers, they could immediately notice any disturbance in the distance.

"Hehe~" Gu Rong glanced at Chen Xin on the opposite side, and also responded in a low voice: "Who made your grandpa Chen a serious granddaughter?"

It's not so much a response, it's more like speaking to someone.

Chen Xin over there frowned slightly.

"Anyway, you'll have a hard time eating something tomorrow, so eat more tonight and make up for it."

Having said that, Gu Zheng instantly figured out what happened.

Damn, Ning Rongrong, that little girl, he thought she was a prostitute today, but she didn't expect to dig such a big hole for him here!
Seeing Gu Zheng's frozen expression, Gu Rong smiled knowingly.

Such an ordinary life is exactly what he is after. There is a child in the family and there is a sustenance, and the fun comes naturally.

He once again realized how correct it was to adopt Gu Zheng.

The stars in the night sky are like a vast galaxy, no matter how vast the universe is, they just need to live in the present moment.

Curly smoke rose from the forest, and the faint light of the fire illuminated a small area around, bringing a small light into the dark night together with the dancing fireflies.

If you listen carefully, you can hear not only the chirping of cicadas and the rustling of animals, but also low voices, the crackling of fires and the sizzling of roasting meat.

The night is still long.
