Demon King Daddy [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 46
Guanyan's eye circles were red.
He followed Gu Tang and walked out, although he didn't continue to mention what happened just now.
Gu Tang could still feel the care from this loyal servant.
He is now full of spiritual power, and after a little investigation of Guanyan, he found that the other party's spiritual root level is very low, and his physique is also not suitable for cultivation.
"Guanyan." Gu Tang asked Guanyan to get into the carriage with him.
He looked at the little servant's red eye circles and the tip of his nose, and asked casually, "How long have you been with me?"
"Your Highness." Guan Yan gave Gu Tang a suspicious look, then suddenly knelt down, "The villain doesn't dare to talk anymore, please don't drive the villain away!"
"Uh..." Gu Tang rubbed his forehead.
He didn't expect this little servant to be as frightened as a bird.
He stretched out his hand and helped Guanyan up again: "Don't worry, I'm not trying to drive you away. I just want to ask about me and the national teacher."
This time the system gave him even less information.
Gu Tang could not extract any useful information from the original memory of His Highness the Ninth Prince.
All he could know was that the Ninth Prince had a very low level of spirit root since childhood and had never been favored.
Now the task falls on the other party to complete.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles.
"Oh." Guan Yan responded in a low voice.
He glanced at Gu Tang quietly, doubts written all over his face.
Usually His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince dislikes people talking about him and the national teacher, why did he take the initiative to ask about it today.
And it seemed that his expression was calm, as if... he didn't really care.
Noticing Guan Yan's gaze, Gu Tang smiled calmly: "Maybe because of the previous injury, I have forgotten many things."
"Oh..." Guan Yan believed it at once.
He just said that when it comes to the National Teacher, His Highness Ninth Prince is always full of joy.
It seems that as long as the other party is willing to give him a smile, he can stick to it until the end of time.
In fact, the matter about His Highness Ninth Prince and the National Teacher is not complicated at all.
Guan Yan sorted out his words, and said in a low voice: "The villain only knows that you were allowed to participate in the royal hunting three years ago, but the villain was not able to follow, so I don't know what happened at that time."
Guan Yan paused, and continued: "When you came back from hunting, you were obviously injured, but you looked very happy. Since then, you have written a love letter to the national teacher every day and sent it to you."
"Every day?!" Gu Tang was a little shocked, shocked!
"Yes!" Guan Yan said, "One letter a day, rain or shine. This delivery will last for three years."
Gu Tang: "!!!"
Guan Yan quietly glanced at his Highness again, making sure that Gu Tang probably really forgot.
Otherwise, he would have done everything like this, and he would have done it happily.
I don't know why I have a shocked look on my face.
"You..." Gu Tang's tone was a little unsteady.
He was thinking just now that he might have to attack more violently in the future.
Everything is for the children.
Unexpectedly, it has become so vigorous.
"Until more than a month ago, the matter of you sending the love letter to the national teacher was told by the third prince in public, which attracted the ridicule of all the highnesses. You were so angry that you had an argument with the third highness, and then you were knocked out by the third highness and vomited." There was a lot of blood, and after lying on the bed for a whole month, the sending of love letters stopped." Guan Yan said.
Gu Tang slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He suddenly remembered, and asked Guanyan again: "You said earlier that every time I sent a love letter to the National Teacher's Mansion, the other party burned it?"
"Yes." Guan Yan just responded, and quickly added: "Actually, the villain doesn't know if it was all burned, but when the villain sent it a few times, the other party did... indeed..."
"Really what?" Gu Tang said, "It's okay for you to say."
"The servants of the National Teacher's Mansion personally told the villain that the National Teacher never reads your letter and burns it casually every time. Please don't...don't..."
Guan Yan secretly looked at Gu Tang again.
Gu Tangchong nodded at him, and said gently: "Let me stop wishful thinking. It's okay, I guessed it."
After he finished speaking, he relaxed slightly and leaned against the wall of the carriage.
Things were a little bit out of his expectation, it turned out that the original body had already been involved with this national teacher.
The other party looked really meaningless.
Then, it's a little difficult.
"By the way, Your Highness." Guan Yan said suddenly, "Did you bring the gift?"
"Gift?" Gu Tang was stunned.
"Yes!" Guan Yan nodded desperately.
It was not his turn to worry about this matter, because Gu Tang always attached great importance to the matter of the national teacher.
His Highness the Ninth Prince was invited to the National Teacher's birthday banquet this time, and His Highness the Ninth Prince had already started preparations three months ago.
But Gu Tang's strange behavior today reminded Guan Yan of this incident.
"what gift?"
Sure enough, Guan Yan listened to Gu Tang's question.
He became anxious: "Today is the national teacher's birthday, you go there empty-handed without a gift, I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."
He thought for a while: "But the villain doesn't know where you put the gift, Your Highness. You never lie to others about matters related to the national teacher, and no one in the mansion knows what the gift is except you."
"It's okay." Gu Tang smiled reassuringly at Guan Yan.
He didn't know what gift he had prepared, the system didn't tell him.
However, since it is the time when spiritual energy is revived and practice can be practiced, it must also be related to practice.
Gu Tang thought for a while, if the cheats of his previous exercises could be used in this world, he might be able to give the other party a copy of the exercises.
Even cheats that can match the opponent's weapons are fine.
To Gu Tang, this is nothing more than a trivial matter, and it goes away as soon as it passes through his mind.
Guan Yan seemed to be very anxious, fidgeting in the carriage with a panicked look on his face.
"Don't worry." Gu Tang comforted him, "Didn't you say that the national teacher is a good person, a good person, he shouldn't care too much about gifts, right?"
"No, Your Highness!" Guan Yan said bluntly: "Of course the national teacher doesn't care, but there are other princes and even dignitaries in Beijing who are going there today. You will definitely be treated as a joke by them again."
At the end of Guanyan's speech, his little face wrinkled up, as if he was really worried about this matter.
"And speaking of it later, if you fight with other highnesses again...you haven't fully recovered, what should you do?" Guan Yan raised his head and looked at his highness eagerly.
His Highness's face was calm and breezy like he had never seen before, but he felt even more frightened.
"Guanyan." Gu Tang patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry."
This time, he looked into the other person's eyes with a sincere and sincere tone, "I'll be fine."
Although Gu Tang's carriage is not a strange beast, it is for the prince after all, and it can be regarded as an extraordinary horse.
From his Ninth Prince's Mansion to the National Teacher's Mansion, it seems that the time has come in just one stick of incense.
Before he even got out of the car, he heard a burst of noise coming from outside.
Guan Yan jumped out of the car first, then bowed and knelt on the ground, trying to let Gu Tang step on his back to get out of the car.
In fact, cultivators don't need to do this at all, but such a luxurious and almost corrupt atmosphere has been passed down from generation to generation.
It seems that this can show the bearing and dignity of nobility.
Gu Tang frowned slightly, got out of the carriage by himself, bent down and pulled Guan Yan up.
"There is no need to do this in the future." He whispered.
Gu Tang raised his head and looked ahead, a huge house that could be regarded as a manor appeared in front of his eyes.
This is in the middle of Beijing, even his Ninth Prince's Mansion is not particularly spacious.
Of course, the Ninth Prince has never been favored, and it is indeed not a good place to live.
Gu Tang didn't choose where to live, but compared with the National Teacher's Mansion in front of him, he still felt that the place he lived in was only about as big as the servant's room in the National Teacher's Mansion.
Gu Tang took a look at Guanyan, no wonder this loyal little servant would persuade him to give up the national teacher.
The so-called difference between cloud and mud.
Perhaps it can be seen from above.
Outside the National Teacher's Mansion, there is naturally a lot of traffic, and the crowd is constantly flowing, which is very lively.
Except for the carriage that Gu Tang and the others rode, most of the people who came here for the banquet rode in chariots pulled by exotic animals.
Some people even came directly riding on strange beasts.
Gu Tang led Guanyan all the way forward, until he was about to enter the National Teacher's Mansion, no one finally noticed him, the Ninth Prince.
"Yo." A man in his thirties walked up to Gu Tang, looked him up and down unscrupulously, "The Ninth Prince will get out of bed now?"
His voice is not low, at least the people at the door can hear him.
Some people were attracted to him instantly.
"Oh, it turned out to be the Ninth Prince, what a rare visitor!" Another person greeted Gu Tang with a smile.
Although he was laughing and calling him Ninth Prince, neither his actions nor his tone of voice showed any respect at all.
"I just said that something was missing this month. It turned out that I didn't see the servants of the Ninth Prince's Mansion rushing to and from the National Teacher's Mansion to deliver love letters. Speaking of which, this is also a scenic spot in Beijing. I have a good friend I went out to practice three months ago, and the letter specifically mentioned that I feel very lonely because I can’t see the Ninth Prince who is sincere." Another young man smiled, "What? I owe this month's love letter, so must the Ninth Prince. You can't sit still, so you struggled to get up from the hospital bed and come to deliver it yourself?"
"Hahahaha..." Everyone around laughed.
Gu Tang sent love letters to the National Teacher's Mansion every day, and his persistence for three years has spread all over Beijing.
The weakest prince in the royal family wants to take down the most dazzling bright moon in the country.
Everyone thinks this is a joke!
Gu Tang stood calmly at the door.
Just now, he has explored the cultivation of these people one by one.
Although he doesn't know where the current peak of this world is, Gu Tang can say it proudly.
Among the people present, one counts as one, and none of them will be his current opponent.
Just considering that today is the national teacher's birthday after all.
These people are the guests he invited, and he himself came to the banquet.
Consider the task further.
Gu Tang felt that it was better not to do anything yet.
But he had already heard about it from Guan Yan, so he wouldn't be surprised if he heard it again at this time.
As for the irony in their words.
Gu Tang didn't care much at all.
"But speaking of it, today is the national teacher's birthday." The man who laughed at Gu Tang at first waited for everyone to laugh enough, and then suddenly changed the subject.
He looked at Gu Tang with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is obsessed with the national teacher, and he spends every year preparing congratulatory gifts for him. It is just that I heard that the congratulatory gifts made with sincerity are received together with everyone's gifts. From now on, the warehouse will either see the light of day, or be sent by the national teacher to help the people when necessary. What a pity!"
The man rolled his eyes and looked at Gu Tang with a smile: "Why don't His Highness the Ninth Prince take it out now and let me open my eyes first, so that someone will finally know what His Highness's intentions are."
"Yes, I've heard that His Highness spends three months preparing gifts every year. It's a pity that the pearl is covered with dust. Why don't we open our eyes!"
"Yes, yes, I want to see you too."
"Your Highness Ninth Prince, don't be stingy, let's take it out and enjoy it together."
……
Seeing the words and hearing the words, he glanced at Gu Tang worriedly.
His Royal Highness did prepare meticulously every year, but this year, he didn't bring it!
Seeing that there were more and more people watching at the door, waiting to see Gu Tang's jokes.
The entrance of the National Teacher's Mansion was already very busy with people coming and going, but now it is even more congested.
At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from the National Teacher's Mansion.
"You and I who are cultivators, why do you care so much about things outside your body?"
That voice was like flowing ice in a clear spring, very transparent and pleasant to hear.
It was like a cold spring in a mountain stream, suppressing all the lively jeers at the door.
Gu Tang's heart moved slightly, and he turned his head to look inside the National Teacher's Mansion.
The other party didn't show up, but he had already seen what happened at the door.
And the sound came through the heavy eaves, it sounded so clear, but it didn't make people feel stressed at all.
The most important thing is that Gu Tang couldn't find out the high ground of the other party's cultivation base from this voice.
It seems that the opponent is going to be stronger than himself.
So this person is the national teacher?
After the voice spoke, there was an instant silence outside the door.
The man who had ridiculed Gu Tang before was the happiest man even cupped his hands towards the main entrance, and said respectfully: "Listen to the teacher's admonition."
"Gifts are illusions, birthdays are illusions, and love letters are illusions. Everything in the world is just a passing cloud to me as a cultivator. Only practice is the right way."
The voice sounded again: "I have told you all before that today's banquet is just a hope that when we go to the banquet together, we can discuss the way of practice. If the heart of practice is shaken for the sake of gifts, it is really putting the cart before the horse, and it is absurd!"
Gu Tang: "..."
These words sounded very familiar!
"Besides, I have persuaded His Highness the Ninth Highness many times not to spend any more time on such matters. If he doesn't bring anything into our teacher's residence this year, it will be the best gift for me."
After a moment of silence, the national teacher said slowly again: "His Highness Nine came here empty-handed today, I am very relieved. Please, please sit on the table!"
Gu Tang: "..."
Guan Yan blushed even more excitedly.
He looked in the direction of the National Teacher's Mansion, and said with piercing eyes: "The National Teacher is really great. No wonder my mother always said that people like the National Teacher are worthy of the word immortal. Only the National Teacher is like this." A kind person can probably ascend to immortality."
After Guan Yan finished speaking, he quietly tugged on Gu Tang's sleeve: "Your Highness, the national teacher invites you in."
Gu Tang: "...I know."
He rarely looked complicated.
Well, those words just now sounded particularly to his liking.
Cultivating the Dao is difficult, even if you are dedicated to the Dao, it is too easy to make mistakes, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose your mind and soul.
Therefore, practitioners should, as the national teacher said, regard all things as false.
Only practice is the right way.
If the time and space were changed to another place, Gu Tang would almost want to introduce this national teacher as a confidant.
But isn't he still on a mission now? !
It's rare that Gu Tang even felt some toothache.
However, you can only take one step at a time.
At least Gu Tang really felt that the national teacher was helping him out of the siege just now.
After he said those things, no one around laughed at him anymore.
Those people seemed to hear the voice of Saint Dao Lun, and they all stood there silently, lost in thought.
Gu Tang walked straight into the National Teacher's Mansion with Guan Yan.
Go around a screen, pass through a spacious field, and finally arrive at the main hall of the National Teacher's Mansion.
It can be seen from the outside that the entire National Teacher's Mansion is magnificent and very grand.
Along the way, Gu Tang discovered that although the building is tall and imposing.
But the decoration inside is very simple, and can even be called simple.
Thinking about what the national teacher said just now, he is really dedicated to the Tao, and has even integrated the principle of simplicity into his daily life.
Numerous cases have already been prepared in the main hall.
There are some common foods and teacups on the table.
There was no drink, and no delicacies to satisfy the appetite.
Even the servants who walked through the main hall to pour tea and water were young men dressed plainly.
Gu Tang looked around, and his eyes finally fell on the man sitting high in the main seat.
The other party was wearing a blue robe, and a belt of the same color was tied around his waist casually.
There is no extra decoration or pattern on the whole robe.
It is roughly the ordinary clothes that everyone will wear when walking on the street.
"Your Highness Ninth Prince." Seeing Gu Tang coming in, the other party greeted politely again: "Please."
Gu Tang: "..."
It was too much like Qin Junche.
Do not!
His breathing suddenly became a little rough.
It should be said that this national teacher and another person deep in his memory, from appearance to temperament, seemed to be carved out of the same mold.
But Gu Tang quickly calmed down.
He bowed to the other party: "Thank you, the national teacher, for saving me just now."
"Why do you need to be polite, Your Highness the Ninth Prince?" The national teacher smiled slightly, his eyes were transparent and clear, "Your Highness can suddenly be cheerful, let go of your obsessions and concentrate on the Tao, and I am also happy for Your Highness."
When he said these words to Gu Tang, his expression was genuinely happy.
But that happiness also has an indescribable alienation taste.
It seems that he is really a god overlooking the world, pretending to be the world in his chest.
All life is in his eyes, and all life is not in his eyes.
Gu Tang smiled bitterly.
Under the guidance of the other party, he randomly picked a table and sat down.
The national teacher's invitation to sit down just now was not casual, the place where he invited Gu Tang to sit was really not far from his side.
It was so close that Gu Tang could see the other person's face clearly just by raising his eyes.
The other party's long black hair was tied behind his head by an ebony hairpin.
Then there are the same profound and handsome facial features as Qin Junche.
It's just that, unlike his indifferent Taoist companion, this national teacher's expression has a kind of indifference beyond the dust.
Such indifference, Gu Tang knows exactly how it came about.
That is to have compassion and kindness for the common people in the world, and to have a firm heart that is truly dedicated to the Tao.
Gu Tang felt that the joke was really too big.
For a moment, he even wanted to give up the mission in despair, regardless of the ups and downs of the world, whether he can regenerate and cross the catastrophe.
He is just in this world, just be a good-for-nothing prince with no talent for cultivation.
As for the kids or something...
He didn't even dare to think about it.
Gu Tang picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The light tea fragrance permeated from the tip of his tongue, but it couldn't calm the restlessness in his heart at all.
"Your Highness Ninth Prince." Probably sensing Gu Tang's inner anxiety, the national teacher turned to look at him again.
"At the beginning of the practice, there will always be various inner demons, you don't need to care about it." The national teacher said with a smile: "Just like your inner demons three years ago, you have overcome them now."
He nodded towards Gu Tang: "I'm very pleased."
Gu Tang: "..."
I'm really afraid to scare you to death when I say it!
Not only did his inner demon not dissipate, but it became even more terrifying.
"If you encounter any problems in your practice in the future, you may wish to come to me to discuss." The national teacher continued to smile and look at Gu Tang, "I am one step ahead of you, although I dare not say that I can help you in everything, but I can always share my experience , let you avoid detours."
I have a problem now!
Gu Tang remained silent, taking sips of tea.
For the first time, he actually hoped that what was served here was not tea, but wine.
Or, make him so drunk that he doesn't know anything.
Or, it can give him the courage to take a step forward.
It's a pity that even the taste of green tea is getting weaker and weaker.
After that, until the end of the banquet that day, Gu Tang did not speak again.
Many people came to the banquet, and the national teacher did not take the initiative to speak to him again.
But occasionally during the discussion, he would look at Gu Tang with a smile and nod encouragingly.
Gu Tang: "..."
I'm a little anxious.
Until the guests who came to the banquet almost left, Gu Tang still sat in his seat without moving.
The national teacher didn't urge him either.
He was sitting at the main seat with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was remembering something.
"National teacher." Gu Tang stood up suddenly.
There is a question that he must ask clearly.
Ask yourself.
"Huh?" The national teacher looked at Gu Tang with a gentle smile, "His Royal Highness, please tell me."
"You..." Gu Tang raised his eyes, looked into the other's eyes, and asked, "What's your name? Can you tell me?"
After finishing his question in one breath, he looked at the other party in silence.
But he probably didn't even realize that the hand hanging by his side trembled uncontrollably.
The author says:
Haha, I think you must be more happy to hear and see ^_^
He followed Gu Tang and walked out, although he didn't continue to mention what happened just now.
Gu Tang could still feel the care from this loyal servant.
He is now full of spiritual power, and after a little investigation of Guanyan, he found that the other party's spiritual root level is very low, and his physique is also not suitable for cultivation.

Among the people present, one counts as one, and none of them will be his current opponent.
Just considering that today is the national teacher's birthday after all.
These people are the guests he invited, and he himself came to the banquet.
Consider the task further.
Gu Tang felt that it was better not to do anything yet.
But he had already heard about it from Guan Yan, so he wouldn't be surprised if he heard it again at this time.
As for the irony in their words.
Gu Tang didn't care much at all.
"But speaking of it, today is the national teacher's birthday." The man who laughed at Gu Tang at first waited for everyone to laugh enough, and then suddenly changed the subject.
He looked at Gu Tang with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is obsessed with the national teacher, and he spends every year preparing congratulatory gifts for him. It is just that I heard that the congratulatory gifts made with sincerity are received together with everyone's gifts. From now on, the warehouse will either see the light of day, or be sent by the national teacher to help the people when necessary. What a pity!"
The man rolled his eyes and looked at Gu Tang with a smile: "Why don't His Highness the Ninth Prince take it out now and let me open my eyes first, so that someone will finally know what His Highness's intentions are."
"Yes, I've heard that His Highness spends three months preparing gifts every year. It's a pity that the pearl is covered with dust. Why don't we open our eyes!"
"Yes, yes, I want to see you too."
"Your Highness Ninth Prince, don't be stingy, let's take it out and enjoy it together."
……
Seeing the words and hearing the words, he glanced at Gu Tang worriedly.
His Royal Highness did prepare meticulously every year, but this year, he didn't bring it!
Seeing that there were more and more people watching at the door, waiting to see Gu Tang's jokes.
The entrance of the National Teacher's Mansion was already very busy with people coming and going, but now it is even more congested.
At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from the National Teacher's Mansion.
"You and I who are cultivators, why do you care so much about things outside your body?"
That voice was like flowing ice in a clear spring, very transparent and pleasant to hear.
It was like a cold spring in a mountain stream, suppressing all the lively jeers at the door.
Gu Tang's heart moved slightly, and he turned his head to look inside the National Teacher's Mansion.
The other party didn't show up, but he had already seen what happened at the door.
And the sound came through the heavy eaves, it sounded so clear, but it didn't make people feel stressed at all.
The most important thing is that Gu Tang couldn't find out the high ground of the other party's cultivation base from this voice.
It seems that the opponent is going to be stronger than himself.
So this person is the national teacher?
After the voice spoke, there was an instant silence outside the door.
The man who had ridiculed Gu Tang before was the happiest man even cupped his hands towards the main entrance, and said respectfully: "Listen to the teacher's admonition."
"Gifts are illusions, birthdays are illusions, and love letters are illusions. Everything in the world is just a passing cloud to me as a cultivator. Only practice is the right way."
The voice sounded again: "I have told you all before that today's banquet is just a hope that when we go to the banquet together, we can discuss the way of practice. If the heart of practice is shaken for the sake of gifts, it is really putting the cart before the horse, and it is absurd!"
Gu Tang: "..."
These words sounded very familiar!
"Besides, I have persuaded His Highness the Ninth Highness many times not to spend any more time on such matters. If he doesn't bring anything into our teacher's residence this year, it will be the best gift for me."
After a moment of silence, the national teacher said slowly again: "His Highness Nine came here empty-handed today, I am very relieved. Please, please sit on the table!"
Gu Tang: "..."
Guan Yan blushed even more excitedly.
He looked in the direction of the National Teacher's Mansion, and said with piercing eyes: "The National Teacher is really great. No wonder my mother always said that people like the National Teacher are worthy of the word immortal. Only the National Teacher is like this." A kind person can probably ascend to immortality."
After Guan Yan finished speaking, he quietly tugged on Gu Tang's sleeve: "Your Highness, the national teacher invites you in."
Gu Tang: "...I know."
He rarely looked complicated.
Well, those words just now sounded particularly to his liking.
Cultivating the Dao is difficult, even if you are dedicated to the Dao, it is too easy to make mistakes, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose your mind and soul.
Therefore, practitioners should, as the national teacher said, regard all things as false.
Only practice is the right way.
If the time and space were changed to another place, Gu Tang would almost want to introduce this national teacher as a confidant.
But isn't he still on a mission now? !
It's rare that Gu Tang even felt some toothache.
However, you can only take one step at a time.
At least Gu Tang really felt that the national teacher was helping him out of the siege just now.
After he said those things, no one around laughed at him anymore.
Those people seemed to hear the voice of Saint Dao Lun, and they all stood there silently, lost in thought.
Gu Tang walked straight into the National Teacher's Mansion with Guan Yan.
Go around a screen, pass through a spacious field, and finally arrive at the main hall of the National Teacher's Mansion.
It can be seen from the outside that the entire National Teacher's Mansion is magnificent and very grand.
Along the way, Gu Tang discovered that although the building is tall and imposing.
But the decoration inside is very simple, and can even be called simple.
Thinking about what the national teacher said just now, he is really dedicated to the Tao, and has even integrated the principle of simplicity into his daily life.
Numerous cases have already been prepared in the main hall.
There are some common foods and teacups on the table.
There was no drink, and no delicacies to satisfy the appetite.
Even the servants who walked through the main hall to pour tea and water were young men dressed plainly.
Gu Tang looked around, and his eyes finally fell on the man sitting high in the main seat.
The other party was wearing a blue robe, and a belt of the same color was tied around his waist casually.
There is no extra decoration or pattern on the whole robe.
It is roughly the ordinary clothes that everyone will wear when walking on the street.
"Your Highness Ninth Prince." Seeing Gu Tang coming in, the other party greeted politely again: "Please."
Gu Tang: "..."
It was too much like Qin Junche.
Do not!
His breathing suddenly became a little rough.
It should be said that this national teacher and another person deep in his memory, from appearance to temperament, seemed to be carved out of the same mold.
But Gu Tang quickly calmed down.
He bowed to the other party: "Thank you, the national teacher, for saving me just now."
"Why do you need to be polite, Your Highness the Ninth Prince?" The national teacher smiled slightly, his eyes were transparent and clear, "Your Highness can suddenly be cheerful, let go of your obsessions and concentrate on the Tao, and I am also happy for Your Highness."
When he said these words to Gu Tang, his expression was genuinely happy.
But that happiness also has an indescribable alienation taste.
It seems that he is really a god overlooking the world, pretending to be the world in his chest.
All life is in his eyes, and all life is not in his eyes.
Gu Tang smiled bitterly.
Under the guidance of the other party, he randomly picked a table and sat down.
The national teacher's invitation to sit down just now was not casual, the place where he invited Gu Tang to sit was really not far from his side.
It was so close that Gu Tang could see the other person's face clearly just by raising his eyes.
The other party's long black hair was tied behind his head by an ebony hairpin.
Then there are the same profound and handsome facial features as Qin Junche.
It's just that, unlike his indifferent Taoist companion, this national teacher's expression has a kind of indifference beyond the dust.
Such indifference, Gu Tang knows exactly how it came about.
That is to have compassion and kindness for the common people in the world, and to have a firm heart that is truly dedicated to the Tao.
Gu Tang felt that the joke was really too big.
For a moment, he even wanted to give up the mission in despair, regardless of the ups and downs of the world, whether he can regenerate and cross the catastrophe.
He is just in this world, just be a good-for-nothing prince with no talent for cultivation.
As for the kids or something...
He didn't even dare to think about it.
Gu Tang picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The light tea fragrance permeated from the tip of his tongue, but it couldn't calm the restlessness in his heart at all.
"Your Highness Ninth Prince." Probably sensing Gu Tang's inner anxiety, the national teacher turned to look at him again.
"At the beginning of the practice, there will always be various inner demons, you don't need to care about it." The national teacher said with a smile: "Just like your inner demons three years ago, you have overcome them now."
He nodded towards Gu Tang: "I'm very pleased."
Gu Tang: "..."
I'm really afraid to scare you to death when I say it!
Not only did his inner demon not dissipate, but it became even more terrifying.
"If you encounter any problems in your practice in the future, you may wish to come to me to discuss." The national teacher continued to smile and look at Gu Tang, "I am one step ahead of you, although I dare not say that I can help you in everything, but I can always share my experience , let you avoid detours."
I have a problem now!
Gu Tang remained silent, taking sips of tea.
For the first time, he actually hoped that what was served here was not tea, but wine.
Or, make him so drunk that he doesn't know anything.
Or, it can give him the courage to take a step forward.
It's a pity that even the taste of green tea is getting weaker and weaker.
After that, until the end of the banquet that day, Gu Tang did not speak again.
Many people came to the banquet, and the national teacher did not take the initiative to speak to him again.
But occasionally during the discussion, he would look at Gu Tang with a smile and nod encouragingly.
Gu Tang: "..."
I'm a little anxious.
Until the guests who came to the banquet almost left, Gu Tang still sat in his seat without moving.
The national teacher didn't urge him either.
He was sitting at the main seat with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was remembering something.
"National teacher." Gu Tang stood up suddenly.
There is a question that he must ask clearly.
Ask yourself.
"Huh?" The national teacher looked at Gu Tang with a gentle smile, "His Royal Highness, please tell me."
"You..." Gu Tang raised his eyes, looked into the other's eyes, and asked, "What's your name? Can you tell me?"
After finishing his question in one breath, he looked at the other party in silence.
But he probably didn't even realize that the hand hanging by his side trembled uncontrollably.
The author says:
Haha, I think you must be more happy to hear and see ^_^
