Zha Gong's evolutionary path

--I like you.

——Gu Jian, after finishing what you want to do, you can leave.

He woke up again from the fainting nightmare, covered in cold sweat, curled up on the cold and dry stone couch.

The murmur in the dream still echoed faintly in my ears.

Gu Jian's mouth was dry.

He subconsciously touched the longevity tablet in his arms, and when he stretched out his hand, he found nothing.

The shadow guard jumped up in shock, opened his hands, and turned over the stone couch in a daze.Finally, he found the bronze inconspicuous wooden sign in the corner, and hugged it tightly in his arms like a life-saving straw.

In the dark wing room, he nervously rubbed the word "Lin Xiao" on it back and forth with his fingertips.Due to years of touching, the edges and corners of the handwriting have been smoothed out a lot, and the dents are smooth and round. It is a name that cannot be mistaken even with eyes closed.

Gu Jian held the wooden tablet tightly, rubbing the longevity tablet engraved with the young master's name over and over again, as if he could resist the whispers that lingered in his midnight dream and refused to go away.

Those soft words were like a spell that he hadn't expected, lingering in his heart for a long time and fearfully, making his memory of the young master gradually disappear and fade away; replaced by another face, handsome, gentle, ready to speak When he stared at him, there was a kind of attraction that made people's hearts beat wildly.

The man buried his head deeply in his arms, and forced himself to recall the scene when the six-year-old young master ordered his servants to drag him out of the grass; he tried to recall the scene when he knelt at the young master's feet and promised to spend his life and his entire body. Feelings to repay this kindness and this virtue.

He wanted to go back to the once single-minded Gu Jian who only saw Lin Xiao in his eyes, but every time he was about to recall those emotions that seemed to be dusty and faded, he was suddenly replaced by the figure of a young man in the study who was reciting a book, and was replaced by him. It was replaced by the warmth of skin-to-skin contact when holding him and applying wound medicine to him.

Was he being forced by him to gradually betray his young master?

Why didn't he start as soon as possible, kill the person who hindered him, and leave this place to find the real Lin Xiao?

When the first ray of morning sun broke through the clouds and was stained with a faint light, Gu Jianfang fell into a drowsy sleep.

But within half an hour, the excellent hearing of the martial arts practitioner allowed his tired nerves to catch the sound of Lin Gongru waving a /long/gun at the other end of the yard.In the quiet courtyard, the movement of the spear/spear/wind expands infinitely and reverberates, pulling people out of the restless dream.

The shadow guard's thoughts, involuntarily following the sound of the /long/gun/clank, crawled towards the young man who dominated his mind day and night.

Although he never said it clearly, Lin Gongru got up earlier every day.

The tips of the grass leaves in the courtyard were still covered with dew that hadn't faded away, and the air was moist, with the dampness of early autumn.

The young man holding a /long/gun/ stood in the middle of the courtyard, wearing only a single shirt with tight cuffs on his upper body, and his lower skirt was rolled up to his knees. It looked so nondescript, but it was a convenient way to practice martial arts.

These days of hard work and hard work have turned the delicate and fair skin of his original son into a healthy wheat color.Muscles gradually grew on the shoulders, and the back was much wider and more vigorous than before.

The strength of my limbs has improved a lot, and I will no longer drag the ground easily when I lift the spear/spear/; the dantian is slowly accumulating the true energy of a warrior.At a glance, he finally has the posture of a martial artist, not the embroidered pillow anymore.

He raised his eyebrows, staring intently at the /spear/gun in his hand, and when he shouted and swaggered, he looked so heroic.

Lin Gongru put all his heart and soul into marksmanship practice, and Gu Jian came behind him to touch a cup of tea, which attracted the young man's attention.

He retracted his gun posture, raised his high-tipped hair behind his head, and endured it again.

"Are you awake?" The joy in the words could not be concealed no matter what.With a smile on the corner of Lin Gongru's mouth, there was warmth in his eyes, and he asked him, "Did I wake you up because I made too much noise in practicing the gun?"

Gu Jian looked at him, silently unwilling to speak, but subconsciously shook his head slightly.

Lin Gongru was relieved, and said with a smile: "I see that you don't look very well these days, and you don't want to talk to me..." He suddenly realized that he had touched an inappropriate restricted area, and kept silent. Changed the subject in time, "Are you hungry? Let's have breakfast together."

He knew that after he confessed his love, there had been extremely subtle changes in his relationship with Gu Jian.

It can be deduced from the day at the gate of death that he must have revealed his secrets somewhere, and made Gu Jian realize that he was not the Lin Xiao he was thinking of.But since Gu Jian chose not to get to the bottom of him, he has no intention of tearing him down, and he has no intention of opening the skylight with him to speak frankly.

Lin Gongru's current mood is much calmer and calmer than when he fell into this yin and yang art room for no reason at first, and it has also changed a lot.

Although he still wants to leave this stone house as soon as possible, he also knows that in this place where all kinds of martial arts, yin and yang techniques, Qimen Dunjia and oral formulas are integrated, there are many things that can be applied and used in the future.One day here is one more day of practical study, not to mention there is Gu Jian around.

The ancients said/red/sleeves/add fragrance, don't be afraid of studying hard in the cold window.

Although Gu Jian is not /hong/sleeve/, he is also someone he cares about.As long as he is still willing to live with him under the same roof, this difficult life is not considered difficult.

Thinking of this, Lin Gongru cast a strange glance at Gu Jian in front of him.

The latter was turning around, preparing to go to the dining room to pick up food according to his instructions.He was still wearing an all-black robe as he had seen him for the first time, and his whole body was covered in a cloth as dark as night.I don't know if it's because of the strong sunlight, but his pale complexion looks even more bleak today.

Lin Gongru keenly caught the thick blue under his eyes, and his brows became serious.

He remembered the scene of Gu Jian following him on a hunger strike a while ago. Could this guy have gotten into some corner without his knowing it?

I didn't eat before, but now I don't sleep?

He actually guessed [-]% to [-]% right, but he didn't know that the shadow guard didn't intentionally abuse himself.

Gu Jian was used to obeying Lin Xiao all his life, and after knowing that the person in front of him who had been serving him day and night for several months was not the real young master, he was far more confused than Lin Gongru who was in trouble by mistake.

He wanted to kill but couldn't do it, wanted to leave but couldn't muster up the courage, the hatchback was pulled down, he was really passive and insomnia.

The young man floated in front of the man calmly, and raised his hand to block his way.Gu Jian was absent-mindedly immersed in his own thoughts, when he was suddenly blocked, he raised his head for some unknown reason.

Lin Gongru frowned, raised his hand naturally to touch the corner of his eyes, and asked him, "What's the matter? Can't you sleep well at night?"

The fingertips barely touched Gu Jian's eyelashes, and the latter, like a cat whose tail was trampled on, suddenly took two steps back and pressed his body tightly against the rear wall.

Lin Gongru: "..."

She hid so quickly, did she hate him so much?

Lin Gongru lowered his hands, feeling a little frustrated and slightly annoyed.

He laughed at himself: "You don't have to be nervous, even if I have intentions for you, I'm not a forceful person. What's more, even if I want to mess around, with your kung fu skills, you can tear me into pieces at any time, so why be so vigilant."

"..." The person in front of him stared at him, as if he didn't understand the meaning of his words.The two stared at each other for a moment before Gu Jian suddenly recalled the meaning of the forced sentence, and an imperceptible blush suddenly appeared on his cheeks.

He is afraid of his approach and touch, not out of disgust and resistance, but has a deeper reason.The palpitating attraction of Lin Gongru was always there, and he was afraid that he would be drawn deeper and deeper.

Lin Gongru waited for a while, but Gu Jian neither explained nor approached him any closer. It was really boring for the two of them to stand still like this.

He turned back angrily, "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hold it in your heart. There are only you and me here, we have to get along with each other for a long time, and it is best to do less to torture yourself. Big deal, you torment I am." He added a little angrily.

Gu Jian stared at him in amazement, the words that lingered in the dream for a long time jumped out again, echoing in his ears.

The shadow guard's heart skipped a beat, and he pressed his palm firmly on his chest, but he couldn't suppress the sudden throbbing. He took a step back, as if out of breath, and sprinted away several feet away.

Out of the corner of Lin Gongru's eyes, he saw that this man regarded him like a poisonous scorpion and a beast, dodging even more, and felt even more annoyed and depressed.He snorted heavily, with the /long/gun/ behind him, he walked away.

Gu Jian followed behind him neither far nor near, and always kept a distance like walking on thin ice. Lin Gongru, who has rarely been turned back emotionally, needless to mention the resentment in his heart.

After breakfast, Gu Jian didn't know where to hide in the blink of an eye.

Feng Shui took turns. In the past, he followed Lin Gongru's figure in every move, wishing that his eyes would grow on the person; although he did not dare to look at him, he always put him within his sight range.Now it is Lin Gongru who is looking for his traces all over the house, and he likes to ignore him.

Lin Gongru knew that Gu Jian was there, and also knew that he didn't know why, but still kept him as the young master and continued to practice.But that person hid it so well that he wouldn't notice it, so he had nothing to do with him.

Lin Gongru was a little distracted, and Gu Jian's listless appearance was always dangling in front of his eyes. After turning a few pages in the book in hand, he stayed on a picture for a long time.

Flipping through the tome that I thought would take me a lifetime to read through, only a few dozen thin pages remained.

With the speed at which he reads at night with the lights on in recent days, he must be able to finish this ancient book handed down by the Lin family in the middle of the month as soon as possible, or at the end of the month as late as possible.

The passage of time in this yin and yang house is hard to detect, the four seasons are not clear, as if it has been at the junction of warm spring and early summer for many years; the flowers and plants in every corner of the house are always in bloom, like an illusion carefully created.If it weren't for his habit of drawing horizontal lines on paper, he might not even realize that he has been here for nearly seven months.

He was busy escaping in the past, and then he was busy studying. During the period after he confessed his love to Gu Jian, he calmed down and seriously looked at the stone mansion that trapped him like a prison.

Lin Xiao personally built a stone house for cultivation. According to the teachings of ancient family books, Lin Xiao's father tailored a detailed training list to help his son improve his martial arts.In order to achieve twice the result with half the effort, they specially arranged Gu Jian, a loyal shadow guard, to watch over them.

Everything seems to be logical, but an accident happened to him who fell from the sky.

Lin Gongru thought deeply, tapped his knuckles on the table lightly, he was thinking, if Ying Moyan was responsible for this trip, where did the real Lin Xiao go?It is impossible for him to replace a real living person with flesh and blood for no reason.

Judging from Gu Jian's reaction, he didn't know that Lin Gongru had changed the crown prince, so he was also kept in the dark.

if--

Wasn't it Ying Moyan who planned all this from the beginning?

After reading the ancient books, and after all the cultivation methods of the line are in place, if you still can't defeat Gu Jian and leave, what will happen to the situation?

After defeating him and leaving, what is there outside the stone house?

These problems that he had never been aware of before, gradually became prominent as he gradually became more like the "Rin Xiao" that the Lin family expected.

If someone secretly planned the whole process——

A vague guess enveloped his heart like a gray mist, and an ominous premonition slowly surged up.

Lin Gongru suddenly put down the book in his hand heavily, and before he read the last page of the book, he wanted to take the risk of exploring the door of life again.

It's certainly not easy, but with his current strength, there should be no danger to his life if he tries it.At least, the house didn't intend for his death.
