Ning Chen

Chapter 23

Personally, "Maybe we can ask sister."

Gu Chuchen asked: "Sister, what does this have to do with Sister?"

Xie Ning said: "I know, you may not be able to accept it for a while, but I suspect that Gu Zhi is not your sister at all, and she is not even alone."

Gu Chuchen didn't believe Xie Ning's nonsense at all. In Gu Chuchen's 20 years of life, his only relative was Gu Zhi. Gu Zhi brought him up with one hand. Now someone suddenly told him that Gu Zhi was not human. And there may be a bunch of secrets hidden in him?So what if you're not a human being, so what if you hide a secret, Gu Zhi is Gu Zhi, and Gu Zhi will always be Gu Chuchen's closest sister.

Gu Chuchen's face darkened, seemingly displeased, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Seeing Gu Chuchen's sullen expression, Xie Ning hurriedly said, "Ah Chen, I don't mean anything else, I just want to say, maybe your sister knows something."

Gu Chuchen asked again: "How does she know?"

Xie Ning said: "Actually, Shi Shuliu is also Gu Zhi's adoptive father. Master told me before that Master Gu Zhi had passed away when he was Master, but now Gu Zhi and you are still alive and together. The reason is that There's no way she doesn't know anything."

Everything seemed to be listening to other people's stories, Gu Chuchen felt that these things had nothing to do with him, "..."

Seeing that Gu Chuchen was in a daze, Xie Ning said, "Ah Chen, it doesn't really matter whether you can retrieve your memory or not, or rather, I wish you couldn't retrieve it..." Xie Ning's voice grew louder as he spoke later. Because of this, Gu Chuchen didn't hear what was said later.

Gu Chuchen said: "I see, I will go back and ask sister."

The moon quietly climbed up to the top of the tree, and the two of them had another sleepless night in this dilapidated Wakoin.

On this day, it was the anniversary of Gu Zhi's death, and Gu Lichen brought Xie Zhanning to worship.

Gu Lichen stood in front of the tomb and said, "Zhan Ning, this is the tomb of your Uncle Gu Zhi."

Xie Zhanning knelt down and kowtowed three times, "Nephew Xie Zhanning, I pay my respects to Uncle Gu Zhi."

Gu Lichen bent down to help Xie Zhanning up, and said, "Sister, Zhanning is my apprentice, I brought him to see you."

Xie Zhanning looked at the tears in Gu Lichen's eyes, and called softly, "Master..."

Gu Lichen lowered his head and patted Xie Zhanning's head, "Zhanning, do you want to hear the story of Master Gu Zhi?"

Xie Zhanning nodded sharply, "Well, I think so."

Gu Lichen smiled softly and began to talk, "Sister and I were originally orphans, and our foster father adopted us. Since we followed our foster father, our foster father has been studying Taoism all the year round. At that time, sister Even though I'm only six years old, she still brought me up single-handedly."

Seeing that Xie Zhanning listened very seriously, Gu Lichen continued: "Sister is the last and only Yanshi descendant in this Shenzhou. She is very talented. She used puppetry to create a puppet exactly like her that year. But later, Sister got to know a mysterious person somehow. According to her adoptive father, it was that mysterious person who killed her. Sister was less than 20 years old when she died, and I still don’t know the reason. .”

After Gu Lichen finished speaking, he fell silent. Xie Zhanning carefully took Gu Chuchen's hand and called, "Master."

Gu Lichen forced a smile at Xie Zhanning, "Okay, the story is over, let me take you to another place."

Xie Zhanning nodded, this was the first time he took the initiative to pull Master's hand, and the strength in his hand became heavier and heavier unconsciously, Gu Lichen felt the warmth slowly coming from his fingertips, after a moment of astonishment, He held Xie Zhanning's hand very naturally, but these hands were not like children's hands, now, Xie Zhanning's hands were almost as big as his.

The place Gu Lichen brought Xie Zhanning to is called 'Hundred Puppet Garden', 'Hundred Puppet Garden' is a small puppet workshop, in which there are all kinds of exquisite puppets, such as stick-headed puppets, hanging string puppets , drug hair puppet and so on.

Gu Lichen said: "These are all made by sister before Jiji."

This is the first time Xie Zhanning has seen these mechanism KitKats, and he can't help feeling that they are extremely novel, "Master, Uncle Gu Zhi is really amazing."

Gu Lichen said: "These are all just casually made by sister to practice, the really powerful ones are still inside."

As soon as Gu Lichen raised his hand, the floor of the workshop sank, revealing a pair of steps going down. It was dark under the steps, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Gu Lichen said: "Follow me down."

Xie Zhanning followed without hesitation, with Master around, he was not afraid of anything.

Going down the steps, wherever the two of them go, candles will be lit on the stone wall in an instant.

"Wow." Xie Zhanning sighed.

Gu Lichen said: "These candlelight mechanisms were also made when my sister was here."

Xie Zhanning thought from the bottom of his heart that he was a great uncle, and he was so proficient in the art of making puppets at a young age.

When the two walked to the end, there was another stone room, but the stone room was not full of things like the outer room, it only had a big desk with some strange tools beside it.

Gu Lichen stopped in front of a black brocade box, which stood at the base of the wall as tall as a person.

Xie Zhanning looked at the brocade box and asked, "Master, is this?"

Gu Lichen said: "Open it and you will know."

I saw Gu Lichen pinch a formula, and with a click, the brocade box was opened from the side.

Inside the brocade box seemed to be a living woman, and the clothes on the woman were exactly the same as Gu Lichen's Taoist uniform. Although the woman closed her eyes lightly, she could already see a very beautiful face.

The woman's face was peaceful, and Xie Zhanning didn't feel the slightest fear, "Master, could this be..."

Gu Lichen nodded and said, "That's right, this is the puppet I told you about just now in front of the grave, exactly like Sister."

Although Xie Zhanning didn't feel scared, he was also extremely surprised. Even if he was the only descendant of Yanshi, can puppetry really be able to do so indistinguishable from a real person?Not only can there be no traces of organs, even the subtle texture of the skin is no different from ordinary people.

Gu Lichen added: "Every time I see this puppet, I feel that sister is still alive in this world."

"Master." Xie Zhanning glanced at Gu Lichen.

Gu Lichen said again: "Zhanning, I brought you here because I want you to see my sister's appearance. For so many years, I have been taking care of this workshop alone. From now on, Master will accompany you It's taken care of."

Xie Zhanning's eyes were extremely determined, "Master, I will definitely help you take care of this workshop, and I will definitely be with you and always be with you."

"En." Gu Lichen didn't say much, took Xie Zhanning's hand, smiled and nodded.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Zhanning came to Qianyan Sect for more than a month, and it was almost the night of the full fifteenth month. Gu Lichen closed his eyes and asked while meditating: "Zhan Ning, how is the practice of "Worriless Tribulation" going?" gone?"

Xie Zhanning paused and stammered, "It's okay, it's okay."

Gu Lichen slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xie Zhanning with a serious tone, "What do you mean by okay?"

"..." Xie Zhanning didn't dare to speak, and silently lowered his head. Seeing this, Gu Lichen's tone became softer, "It will be the night of the full [-]th month soon, and then the teacher will know."

That's right, the night of the full moon is coming soon, but Xie Zhanning's worry-free robbery has not been practiced at all.

21. Night of the Full Moon

"Get up! Master has something to ask you."

It was fifteen, and tonight was the day when Gu Lichen accepted Xie Zhanning's practice results.

Just as the moon was about to burst out, Gu Lichen and Xie Zhanning sat down in the courtyard.

Gu Lichen raised his head and said, "The moon is out, Zhan Ning, try mobilizing the Wuyou Jie mentality and see if you can restrain the beast transformation."

Xie Zhanning nodded in a daze, then sat cross-legged to mobilize his inner breath, and circulated the Wuyou Jie mental method. With the continuous circulation of his inner breath, Xie Zhanning gradually became restless in his body, just like when he was practicing. At this moment, two opposing forces Rampage in his body, as if immortal.

"..." There were bursts of cold sweat on Xie Zhanning's face, and several veins burst out on his forehead.

Gu Lichen frowned, and asked, "Zhanning, how do you feel?"

Seeing that Xie Zhanning didn't reply for a while, he said again: "Zhanning, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly?"

After struggling for a while, Xie Zhanning's ears still grew out. Obviously, the Wuyoujie mentality method has not been successfully practiced, and Gu Lichen knows that there will never be any problems with the Wuyoujie mentality method. The only problem is Xie Zhanning himself.

Xie Zhanning also felt that his ears had grown out. He didn't want to disappoint his master at all, so he gritted his teeth and circulated his inner breath again. However, after this, his face became more and more terrifying, turning blue and white for a while. Like a madman, after a while, Xie Zhanning vomited out a big mouthful of crimson blood.

Seeing this, Gu Lichen quickly stopped and said, "Enough, stop!"

Xie Zhanning wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, drooping his ears, not daring to look at Gu Lichen, "Master, I'm sorry, I failed."

Gu Lichen shook his head and sighed: "What is wrong with you, the master just wanted to see the results of your practice, not to let you learn it right away."

Xie Zhanning opened his ears one by one, "Master, I look like this..."

Gu Lichen pursed his lips and said with a smile, "Well, it's been a long time since you look like this."

Not only was Gu Lichen not angry, but he laughed instead. He waved to Xie Zhanning and said, "Little boy, come here."

Little Zaizai, Master hasn't called him Little Zaizai for a long time, is it because of his current appearance?

Xie Zhanning obediently walked over and sat next to Gu Lichen.
