Stars fall and locust trees grow

"What's wrong with being embarrassed? I'm thick-skinned! I can afford to be embarrassed! Unlike you, you have a bad temper and are hypocritical! Humph!"

Gu Huaiyi was furious: "Who are you calling a hypocrite?"

Li Chi: "You! You! You! It's you!"

Gu Huaiyi was so angry that he fell backwards, and then he shouted loudly: "You...you are a scoundrel!"

Seeing that Gu Huaiyi was becoming more and more agitated, Zeng Muhan quickly reached out his right hand to cover Gu Huaiyi's mouth.

We are in public, please pay attention to our image in Mingyuejian, my dear...

When Li Chi saw that Gu Huaiyi had "shut up obediently", he changed his face and put on a bright smile, and said goodbye to Zhu Weiqing who had been trying to hold back his laughter beside him.

"Miss Qingqing, thank you for taking care of me today!"

Zhu Weiqing said, "Mr. Li, you are welcome! You have taken good care of me today! I ate well, drank well, and slept well. It was really relaxing."

Li Chi sighed, "Ah! After this separation, I don't know if I will have the chance to see you again. What should I do if I miss Miss Qingqing in the future?"

Zhu Weiqing asked, "Master Li, don't you have the Tianxuan Bi or Yuheng?"

Li Chi shook his head.

I've never used this thing in my life...

Zhu Weiqing generously took out a small jade disk from his ring and handed it to Li Chi.

"This is the old Yuheng I used before. Although it is not as good as the Tianxuan Bi, it can still be used. We can use this to communicate when the time comes!"

Li Chi said happily: "That's great! Thank you Miss Qingqing!"

Gu Huaiyi: Bah! Shameless thing!!!

After saying goodbye to Zhu Weiqing, the group returned to Yuhe Tower, planning to set off again for Mingyuejian tomorrow.

Gu Huaiyi continued to wander outside with his fellow disciples, saying that he wanted to bring some local specialties of Shuozhou back to his father, the head of the sect, and several uncles and aunts.

Zeng Muhan originally wanted to stay, but Gu Chuanlin said that there was nothing going on here and he was not needed for the time being. In addition, he could not resist Gu Huaiyi's invitation, so he had to go with them.

Wei Li said he was too lazy to move and went back to his room to catch up on his sleep.

***

Maoqiu had been locked up in Gu Chuanlin's ring for the whole morning. As soon as he was released, he started circling around Li Chi and humming.

Li Chi quickly kissed, hugged, and lifted it up high, and played with it for nearly two quarters of an hour before he successfully coaxed it to sleep.

Li Chi felt a little worried when he thought about going to Mingyuejian tomorrow.

He opened the distribution map of the four seas and six continents that Gu Chuanlin gave him yesterday and pointed at it, as if thinking about something.

Mingyuejian is located in Luozhou, in the southeast corner of the Far North Continent. Because it is adjacent to the Jiyou Sea, the temperature is neither high nor low. It is a place with only spring all year round.

Luozhou is very far from Shuozhou, but it is even farther from Jiangzhou in the northeast corner of the continent. If we set off directly to Mingyuejian tomorrow, I am afraid it will be difficult to find an opportunity or reason to transfer to Jiangzhou.

Li Chi sighed inwardly.

His goal in this life is actually very simple, which is "to cultivate Taoism quietly and live happily", but the so-called quietness and happiness are naturally based on the foundation of being focused.

But he has been troubled by many things these days: the truth behind his resurrection, the unknown life and death of Ah Xing, and... the two strange people Wei Li and Gu Chuan Lin he met one after another.

These people and things are like fish bones stuck in his throat, which he can neither swallow nor spit out. If he cannot solve these mysteries, he really cannot be at peace and happy.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"Are we going back to Mingyuejian tomorrow?"

Furukawa Lin, who was sitting by the window reading a book, replied: "Yeah."

Li Chi whispered: "Why did you take me back to Mingyuejian? Is it because of the blood contract... or because of the fur ball?!"

Furukawa Lin raised his head. "Why do you ask?"

Li Chi didn't dare to look at him, and lowered his head and said: "Can I... not go to Mingyuejian first?!"

"Oh?! Why?!"

Li Chi hesitated, not knowing why he felt a little guilty, "I want to go somewhere else first... to do something else..."

"Then where do you want to go?" Gu Chuanlin stared at him with his phoenix eyes.

"Is it Jiangzhou?!"

"Ah?!" Li Chi was shocked. "What...Jiangzhou?!"

Gu Chuanlin continued: "Li Chi, do you want to go back to Juyun Sect?!"

Wait, was he talking about Li Chi or... Li Chi? !

Li Chi suddenly felt a little unsure.

"What did you just call me?!"

Gu Chuanlin closed the book in his hand with a solemn expression.

"It's been so long, and you still don't recognize me."

"Ah?! Do we know each other?!" Li Chi was a little confused.

Gu Chuanlin threw the book in his hand onto the small table, then pushed the door open with an expressionless face and left, saying only, "If you want to go to Jiangzhou, then go ahead."

Li Chi was completely confused by him.

Just as confused as Li Chi was Maoqiu, who had just been woken up by the two. He paced back and forth at the door of the room, not knowing for a moment whether he should follow Gu Chuanlin out or stay with Li Chi.

Li Chi squatted down and rubbed its little head a few times, "My dear, go check out Guchuanlin first! I'll wait for you here."

The furry ball stuck out its tongue and licked his hand twice, then quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Finally, Li Chi was the only one left in the room.

He closed the door and collapsed to the ground, his mind in a mess.

This person, Guchuan Lin, actually knew me, and that was the real me hidden in this strange body.

This is really unexpected.

Li Chi recalled the time he spent in the Juyun Sect. In order to secretly conduct experiments on forbidden techniques, the Juyun Sect hardly interacted with other sects, let alone Mingyuejian, which was ranked as a first-level sect.

Besides, none of the bad friends I met during my training could match Gu Chuanlin. So, who is he? !

Also, what did he just say? !

What does "If you want to go, then go" mean? !

Was he just speaking in anger, or did he agree to let me go to Jiangzhou?

Li Chi couldn't figure it out and was so angry that he kicked and dug on the ground.

But after a while, he felt something wrong in his stomach.

It was that very familiar and indescribable feeling of hunger that I felt when I first woke up.

Why did it happen at this time? !

Li Chi ate a lot of spiritual fruits and cakes at the ceremony today and was almost full, so he didn't ask Gu Chuanlin to prepare any food when he came back. At the moment, there was not even a pot of tea in the room.

Li Chi originally wanted to get up and look for Wei Li, but for some reason, the hunger in his stomach suddenly turned into severe pain, which made him break out in a cold sweat and he could only hunch over on the ground.

As the pain became more intense, Li Chi could not help but spit out a large mouthful of blood, and his consciousness became vague.

Ahhh! Am I going to die again?!

I haven't lived enough yet?!
