Hua County Corpse Cave-21

In the first 16 years of his life, Gao Yang always felt that he was just an ordinary person, at most - extremely unlucky.

After all, it’s not like everyone’s parents are deceased and they don’t have a car or a house at home. Now even the protagonists with such a configuration are not popular in shounen manga.

Of course, Gao Yang's unlucky resume can be added in the future.

For example, I just went to play an escape room with my classmates. There was nothing wrong with others, but he was targeted by a female ghost and wanted to take his life.

If it wasn't for Brother Gu, he would probably be terribly cold by now.

Gao Yang pressed one hand on his left chest, feeling the powerful beating of the heart beneath it, and thought deeply.

After narrowly escaping that day, Gao Yang immediately rushed to the bookstore to buy a copy of "Shan Hai Jing", and got a general understanding of Nuba, and the cold sweat was pouring down.

Narrow escape, nothing more.

It's not that Gao Yang didn't think about going to thank Gu Xi properly, but no one from the next door came back.

If it hadn't been for the fact that the receptionist of the Celestial Masters Association swore to Gao Yang that Gu Xi had just gone on a mission outside of the city when he checked in every day and questioned Gao Yang, Gao Yang would almost have thought that Gu Ge was here because his identity was exposed. Must go, and they will never see each other again.

Gao Yang who thought this way noticed some changes when he came home from school today—for example, the bed curtain next door that had been closed for a long time was pulled open today.

He was taken aback for a moment, and then he went straight to the next door without putting away his schoolbag.

"Brother Gu, come back—"

...had.

Opening the door, with a popsicle in his mouth, he had a face so familiar with the staring girl that Gao Yang didn't dare to recognize him.

Even though she did not wear the very luxurious Tsing Yi, but put on a modern and beautiful little skirt, the red strings tied around her limbs were not taken off, and that face did not make the slightest disguise or concealment.

Gao Yang's mouth became bitter.

Isn't this... a girl...?

Probably because he heard the movement, Gu Xi poked his head out of the bedroom, and when he saw Gao Yang, he seemed to be relieved without any trace.

"Help me," he said, "I'm not very good at packing."

Gao Yang saw him as if he saw a relative, and immediately rushed towards Gu Xi, crying and howling, and the 1.8-meter tall man hid behind Gu Xi like a frightened little daughter-in-law. , It seems that I can't wait to get myself into a ball.

"Brother Gu!" Gao Yang screamed, "Why is she here?!"

"what."

Gu Qi looked in the direction Gao Yang pointed, and stared at his daughter-in-law for a moment.

Gao Yang noticed that his face gradually became darker.

Is it time to start fighting?Gao Yang thought nervously.

The nun cautiously took a few steps back, trying to hide the popsicle in her back.

Gu Qi: "I've seen it all."

Nuo: "Um..."

"What number is this?"

The nun turned her head away from him.

Gu Qi walked to the refrigerator by himself, opened it and looked.

Even he couldn't help but gasp.

"I bought ten in total." Gu Xi asked, "Bao, can you tell me why there is only one empty bag here now."

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

Gao Yang vaguely felt that he understood something - but it was this that made him feel incredible: "Brother Gu...?"

His eyes wandered back and forth a few times around Gu Xi and Nuba, and then he showed a look of sudden realization, ready to die as a hero.

"There's no need to explain, Brother Gu." Gao Yang said with tears in his eyes, "I understand everything."

Gu Qi: "...What do you understand?"

Why do I not quite understand?

After spending some time, Gu Xi finally explained to Gao Yang all the misunderstandings.

However, Gao Yang's focus is on...

"Wow." The high school student exclaimed, "So I'm so awesome!"

Gu Qi: "That's right."

After all, it is the last known multicolored stone.

"Brother Gu." Gao Yang took a bottle of Fat House Happy Water from the refrigerator, ran up to Gu Xi in a fawning manner, presented it to Gu Xi respectfully like offering an offering, and even eagerly helped him pull it away. Griph put on the straw, "Hey, look, since I have such a good background, are you thinking of teaching me a few tricks, so that I can kick Ximenqing in the future! Punch the town of Guanxi!"

Gu Xi felt that he often couldn't understand what Gao Yang was thinking: "Where did Ximen Qinghe come from to be in Guanxi?"

"A metaphor, a metaphor." Gao Yang gestured towards Gu Xi, and his tone of voice contained a bit of hatred for iron and steel, "Brother Gu, obviously you are not a few years behind me, why is there a generation gap between us? That's all it takes!"

Gu Qi couldn't understand what the poor kid was talking about, so he simply gave up understanding, and just said to Gao Yang: "I have something now, and I need your help."

"Ah? Want me to help?" Gao Yang didn't even ask, but responded, "Brother Gu, just tell me, what is the relationship between you and me, who is with whom!"

There is a bit of youthful spirit in it.

Gu Xi interrupted him: "Listen to me."

"This is not something simple, easy, and something you can do casually." Gu Qi said, "I will take you out of the safe zone, and then—"

"Go to the abyss of ghosts."

Gu Xi probably has never talked to anyone in such a gentle tone in his life.

Gao Yang agreed very simply: "Okay."

Gu Qi suspected that he didn't hear what he said clearly: "Don't rush to agree, think about it carefully. Even if I will protect your safety, it is still a ghost land outside the safe zone, and you are not even a heaven. division."

"But Brother Gu, don't you need my help?" Gao Yang said without thinking, "Then I don't have anything to think about."

"..." Gu Xi took a deep, deep breath.

"Why?" He asked Gao Yang, but he seemed to be asking himself, "Do you know how dangerous this is?"

Gao Yang scratched his head: "I can probably think of it, but..."

He showed an overly bright and vigorous smile towards Gu Xi: "Isn't this Brother Gu, you need me!"

Gao Yang felt that he knew Gu Qi too well!He, Gu Ge, usually doesn't like to talk, and has things hidden in his heart. It must be very, very important to ask him for help. It is so important that there is no other alternative, so he has no choice but to speak to him.

Then how could he not help?

You know, even if Gu Ge helped him escape from the hands of the female ghost and Ba, in the past three years, as a neighbor, Gu Qi has indeed helped Gao Yang and his grandmother a lot. .

The young man's eyes were clear and bright, full of trust and respect.Gu Xi's brows twitched slightly, the words that someone said to him once, for some reason, rang in his ears so clearly at this moment.

[I hope that one day, even if I am gone, you will still be watched and admired by everyone, and live in the love of everyone. 】

【You should be wrapped in love, this is my last wish and blessing to you. 】

[From now on, we must live better. 】

Feast.

Is this what you said... the feeling of being loved?

Gu Qi thought, so even though he has a lot of contempt for the existence of human beings, even if he was once disgusted and treated unfairly by human beings——

He still stood up and became the last line of defense for human beings, guarding the ten thousand li territory for them, and he would not allow himself to cross the critical line between humans and ghosts.

Because there will always be such love, reverence, admiration and many other emotions falling on him, making Gu Qi unable to bear to let him down.

"I have accepted a mission." Gu Qi said to Gao Yang, "I need to enter the ghost domain."

"But I don't want to enter the ghost domain through formal channels. That will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble and surveillance, and it is easy to scare the snake away."

"So I thought of another way. The female demon knows other ways to enter the ghost domain, and she can lead the way, but there is a door on this road; I hope that you, the colorful stone, can be the key to help me open this door. Then I can sneak into the ghost domain without anyone noticing."

Gao Yang agreed: "What a big deal! Brother Gu, don't worry! Leave it to me!"

"Then you tell your grandma." Gu Xi said, "It will be half a month soon, or a hundred days at most, and you will be back."

"Oh yes." Gao Yang responded, his expression suddenly chapped, "Fuck, but I have make-up classes during summer vacation."

He is a hard-working quasi-high school senior!

Gu Qi: "I'll ask for leave for you, and then recommend you to study at Tianshi University."

Originally a multicolored stone, it is impossible for Gao Yang to be different from the world of celestial masters and stay out of it.In this era, being able to become a celestial master - this is a recognized iron job that is more sought after than any other profession, is the best choice for everyone.

"Since you believe in me." Gu Qi said slowly, "Then I won't let you down."

"I will protect you and prevent you from being harmed in the ghost domain until I send you back to the safe zone safe and sound."

"—I swear in my name, Gu Qi."

Gao Yang probably didn't know that what he got was the most precious promise in this world.

***

Gu Qi's decision was naturally informed by Jiang Buhuan, the person in charge of the safety zone.

"You want to take an ordinary person to the abyss of ghosts?"

If it was another celestial master, even if it was a highly respected sixth-level celestial master, Jiang Buhuan could still spray the other party with a cold face.

That's a ghost town!A carnival place for ghosts that is completely independent of the safe zone!

What about the sixth-level celestial master?Do you dare to say that you are invincible in the world?How much ability can do so many things, you might as well look in the mirror and see how old you are?

However, the person who wants to do this is Gu Xi...

It's hard for Jiang Buhuan to say anything.

Because of the above list, he, Gu Xi, can really do it.

"Approved, approved." Jiang Buhuan grabbed his hair frantically, "You have already spoken, how can I not approve? Besides, staying by your side is worse than being in the safe zone. safe."

At least Gao Yang can still be targeted by an A-level ghost like Nuba just because he played an escape room in the safe zone, but if he is by Gu Qi's side——

Thinking about it, even ten ghost generals would have to choose to take a detour unless they had to.

But any ghost who has some insight, a long memory, and knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, no one wants to run into Gu Xi.

Gu Xi took the approval slip and was about to leave, but was stopped by Jiang Buhuan.The latter looked hesitant, but finally asked: "You pay too much attention to the Abyss of Myriad Ghosts, is it because of what happened three years ago?"

"Gu Xi, you have never said anything, and we have never dared to ask. Now that you are leaving the safe zone and reentering the abyss of ghosts, does it prove that what happened three years ago is no longer your heart?"

Gu Qi smiled vaguely: "Probably."

If everything is really as he speculated and expected, then it is indeed a feast——

No matter how many thoughts are flying, they can all be cut off without a trace.

So he was also able—three years after that incident, for the first time, with a flat, ordinary tone, to open up the wound that was thought to never heal, lingering there, festering and festering. others to see.

"Three years ago, on a whim, I wanted to go to the place where the Hundred Ghosts and Natural Disasters first erupted, and also the center."

"And then... I paid the price for my arrogance and lost my most important treasure and love."

"Jiang Buhuan." Gu Xi said, "He died to save me."

Gu Xi walked out of the abyss of ghosts, and in exchange, Yan Le stayed in that ghost realm forever.
