Quick Wear: True and False Life

Chapter 12 The Real Gold in the Taoist Temple 11

After asking around, I learned that Quan Wenyou and Wang Haojing were sent to the town academy to study as soon as they arrived, and were picked up by servants. Thinking that they leave early and come back late, if I want to meet them specially, I can only choose the evening. I heard from my aunt that the three children of the Quan family will go out to play during this period.

From that day on, Gu Nan reorganized his daily routine. He practiced martial arts on the cliff in the morning, recited medical books at noon, went down the mountain to the river at the foot of the mountain to fish at 3 p.m., and then entered the space to do other things in the evening.

For four or five days in a row, Gu Nan went fishing and reading at the foot of the mountain without meeting anyone. Gu Nan was not in a hurry. Today, she did not bring her fishing rod and book. She jumped onto a rock under an old tree by the river and sat there picking flowers to play with. This person was childish when he was bored. After a while, he picked a small pile of flowers and leaves in front of him, and he began to daydream while picking them. When he came to his senses, his sight was blocked by a figure. He looked up at the person in front of him and was a little overwhelmed.

As Gu Nan watched, she seemed to have returned to the days when she was with Jun Haojing. She missed out on it because she didn't have the courage to accept him. Now that she thinks about having had him, she wouldn't regret it even if she lost him later. It's a pity that she can't have it again.

"You...what are you thinking about? Do you...still...still remember me?" Wang Jinghao raised a finger and waved it in front of Gu Nan's eyes. He clenched his other hand into a fist at his side and asked very nervously.

"You're stuttering! Of course I remember." She looked into his eyes and slapped his hand away.

"Why are you here?" he asked after patting the stone next to him to motion for him to sit down.

"I'm not stuttering. I...I saw you here and...I came over."

"Just keep talking, why are you so nervous? I'm not going to eat anyone."

Wang Haojing sat next to Gu Nan, accompanying her quietly, making Gu Nan feel that he spoke very little.

"Young Master Wang, I'm leaving." Gu Nan sat for a while and stood up without knowing what to say.

"Can I call you Nannan?" Wang Haojing grabbed Gu Nan's sleeve and said nervously.

"Why? See you a second time."

"I want to get to know you. Don't ignore me. You can also call me by my courtesy name Jingran."

"Okay! Jingran, you can call me Chuchu, but it's getting late and I should leave."

"Where do you live? I'll take you there?" Wang Jinghao asked quickly.

"No need, I live on the mountain." Gu Nan waved his hand and pointed to the mountain road behind.

Wang Jinghao was very surprised when he heard this, because he thought Gu Nan was from the village. He even went around the village but didn't meet her. It turned out that he had gone in the wrong direction!

Gu Nan was also surprised by his expression and said, "Do you think I live in the village?"

"I looked for it in the village, but couldn't find it!" Wang Jinghao said dejectedly.

Gu Nan laughed out loud because what he said made her very happy. Feelings are mutual. He keeps her in mind and gives her the motivation to work hard. She would be tired if she worked alone.

"I live in a Taoist temple in the back mountain. If you have anything, come find me there. By the way." Gu Nan smiled and jumped, and after a few leaps he disappeared into the woods.

After seeing her leave, Wang Jinghao continued to stare at the forest in the distance and smile foolishly.

"Cousin, come back to your senses after everyone has left." Quan Wenyou walked up to him and waved his hand in front of him.

"Cousin, that little girl is really good at Kung Fu. Next time I see her, I must ask her for advice." Quan Hongbao followed closely behind, jumping and shouting excitedly.

"My cousin is gone." Quan Wenyou rolled his eyes at his sister and dragged her home without knowing what was going on.

After returning to the Quan residence, Wang Jinghao sat on a chair in the hall, occasionally laughing and dazed. Seeing this, the old man kept staring at him, so the old man asked Quan Wenyou and Quan Hongbao who came in and were sitting and whispering to each other, "Brother You, Baoer, what happened to your cousin?"

"I know that my cousin was so happy to see the little sister he had been looking forward to for a long time. You don't know how powerful that little sister is. She flew away in a flash." Quan Hongbao was only seven years old and had a strong desire to show off. He kept talking about what he had seen.

Quan Wenyou failed to respond and tried to snatch his sister away. He just rolled his eyes, sat down on the chair, and pushed his cousin with his hand, but unfortunately his brother didn't come back to his senses.

"You mean that little girl is very good at Qinggong, but didn't your mother say when she came back last time that the little girl named Gu Nan was very young, about five or six years old? What a good aptitude she must have." The old man asked in surprise, stroking his beard.

"Grandpa is real," Kwon Moon-woo added.

Actually, speaking of this matter, everyone in the Quan family except Wang Jinghao knew Gu Nan. He had a master, Taoist Chang Le, and three of his senior brothers and sisters were from the village Gu Changshan's family. At first, when Wang Jinghao came back from the town, he would stay in the village. He was quiet and didn't ask questions. When people teased him, they didn't tell him, and they wanted to see when he would come to his senses. Who knew he was so stubborn and didn't know how to bend around. It took three or four months to meet him.

As they were talking, the old man saw that Wang Jinghao had come back to his senses and said, "Jingran! Don't be rude to Gu Nan next time you see her. Remember to invite her to your home as a guest, okay?"

"Can I really invite her to be my guest?" Wang Jinghao asked happily.

"Yes, as long as our Jingran is happy." The old man answered solemnly.

So Wang Jinghao went back to his room happily. After he left, the old man felt that he had not seen Wang Jinghao so happy since he was poisoned, and he really had to thank the little girl named Gu Nan.

From then on, the two of them would often meet by the river, until more than half a month later when the master came back from the provincial capital. Unexpectedly, the master came back with a little tail.

I heard from the master that this was his friend's grandson. His parents were married by family alliance and had no feelings for each other. Later, his father took his cousin as a concubine under pressure. His mother was assassinated while giving birth to his sister. Although the concubine was punished, her daughter-in-law forced her to drink sterilization medicine to save her niece's life, but the hatred had been formed and could not be reconciled. His friend was afraid that this grandson would not survive with his father, so he faked his death and sent him to the master as a closed disciple.

In this way, Gu Nan had a younger apprentice brother, but with the master around, she didn't need to worry about anything. However, she privately talked to the master about Wang Jinghao, hoping that the master would accept him as a registered disciple.

"What did you say?" Chang Le was very surprised.

"Wang Jinghao and I were a couple bound by a contract in my previous life. After his accidental death, his soul reincarnated here. I used the power of the contract to travel through space and bring my memories with me to reincarnate in the belly of Zhao Liu, the wife of a king of a different surname. Later, I was thrown into the wild and was picked up by you. During the time you were away, I met his reincarnation, and I wanted to ask the master to accept him as a registered disciple." Gu Nan was afraid that the master would not accept him, so he changed the relationship and briefly introduced himself before asking.

"Okay! At first you lied to me that you were a child, and now you want the master to help you, huh..." After hearing this, Chang Le's first thought was that Gu Nan lied to him and made him lose a lot of fun, so he got angry.

"Master, is it that serious? If I hadn't said this, you would have ruined me."

"No, if you want me to do something, you have to make me happy." Chang Le stroked his beard and glanced at Gu Nan. He wanted to take advantage of her and not do anything for her unless she was satisfied, so he twisted his head and said.
