Quick Wear: True and False Life

Chapter 7 The Real Gold in the Taoist Temple 6

Gu Nan looked at the three people carefully. The man sat upright and wiped the dagger carefully. He was serious and silent, and looked fierce. The woman looked gentle, but she was actually quite straightforward, eloquent, and observant. Even the boy opposite kept looking at her, and she felt that he looked familiar. It was really strange! Had they met before? But she couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, so she put it aside for the time being.

"The noodles are here, please enjoy, guests." The old lady just put the noodles on them.

"Brother An, take Jing'er to eat noodles quickly! And put away your dagger quickly. People who don't know would think that is your wife." Queen Quan glanced at the man and said unhappily.

"Nonsense, Jing'er, eat!" The man Quan Jinan quickly put away the dagger, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

"Let's ignore him. I didn't expect he was from the same village. Let's eat some noodles quickly."

"Thank you, Auntie," Gu Danzhu replied.

Gu Nan and the boy looked at each other, and the boy suddenly said: "You...you eat!"

Hearing the boy talking, Quan Jinan and Quan Wangshi were very surprised! Because since the boy's throat was injured, he would not talk if he could, and it was good enough to get her eye contact, and he was not proactive. What is he doing now, taking the initiative to talk to the little girl, and his eyes are glued to her. Doesn't he usually find girls annoying? Is this the rhythm of finding a young wife for himself! I must tell his grandfather in detail when I go back. It's really a rare thing. The two exchanged glances for a moment, and didn't disturb him.

"You eat too," Gu Nan replied while picking up the chopsticks, but in his heart he wanted to go back and let the system and Lingxi see how to get back. The origin of this feeling was inexplicable, could it be the fragment of Jun Haojing?

Gu Nan and the boy ate slowly, while Gu Danzhu and the couple chatted on the side after they finished eating.

They waited until Aunt Gu came back before they parted ways.

"Wang Jinghao," the boy walked out and ran back to look at Gu Nan and said, still staring at her.

"Gu Nan" Gu Nan was so shocked that he didn't react for a moment, and only replied when he felt uncomfortable being stared at.

Wang Jinghao got the answer before he caught up with the couple waiting in front, but Gu Nan could still see the two people looking at Wang Haojing with a playful look from afar. When she heard Wang Haojing speak just now, she could tell that his throat was injured, and his voice was rough and dark, but she didn't know the specific situation.

"It's rare to see you look like this." Gu Danzhu joked with interest.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Aunt Gu said, pointing her finger at Gu Danzhu's forehead.

"Auntie, have a bowl of noodles before you leave!" Gu Nan rolled his eyes at Gu Danzhu.

"No, we are in a hurry. The oxcart will leave soon and we will have to walk back."

So Gu Danzhu put down a few coins, packed up her things and led Gu Nan back. After riding in the ox cart and bumping along the way, Gu Nan felt like her bones were falling apart when she returned to the village. She thought to herself that since she was six years old, she should quickly practice martial arts so that she wouldn't have to suffer so much when traveling.

After parting ways with Aunt Gu at the entrance of the village, Gu Nan slowly returned to the Taoist temple with the book and the braised goose for the master. At the foot of the mountain, he met Gu Danmu and Gu Yaowu coming down the mountain to go home. They were holding a few pheasants and rabbits in their hands, some of which were struggling, and they must have caught them alive.

"Master, your braised goose ran away from home because it didn't want to eat it." Gu Dao shouted loudly.

"Come on, you are not allowed to eat secretly." Chang Le threw down his pen and hurried out of the study to the yard. Seeing the oil paper bag in Gu Nan's hand, he immediately took it and opened it, put his nose close to it and took a deep breath, and said intoxicatedly: "This is the taste, fragrant!"

"Here, I'll reward you with a goose leg. Don't even think about anything else." Chang Le broke off a goose leg and handed it to Gu Nan with a bad expression.

Gu Nan took it and took a bite. He had become so thick-skinned after working with Master Chang Le that he must not be polite, or he would starve.

"Is it delicious? Eat it in small bites, it will be gone once you finish it." Chang Le said greedily.

"Master, do you really need that? You have so much in your hand, why don't you give me some more?"

"Don't even think about it," Chang Le immediately shouted, then put it in his arms and went to find some wine.

Gu Nan ignored him and returned to the bedroom with the goose leg in his mouth. It was getting dark, so there should be hot water in the kitchen. Gu Nan went to the kitchen and saw a lot of water in the pot. It should have been boiled by Gu's siblings before they came home. The sparks in the stove were still hot.

She took a wooden bucket and began to fetch water to wash. After washing, she lay down in bed, closed her eyes and began to sink into the space. Lingxi had been bored for the past two years and could not find a suitable opportunity to come out, so she chose to sleep. Now she woke up when she felt Gu Nan's consciousness enter the space, swaying and floating in the space, rubbing her eyes.

"Sister, are you here to see Lingxi?" Lingxi asked eagerly with her little eyes opened.

"This body of my sister is already six years old. I want to test my aptitude for cultivation so that I can find a chance to go out and take you with me. Lingxi, is there a spirit test disk?"

"I can do it without that thing!"

"Lingxi, how do you test it?" Gu Nan looked at Lingxi and asked curiously.

Lingxi stretched out her little hand and picked up a thin white hair from his body and handed it to Gu Nan.

"This hair changes color and glows when it touches the body, which means it has spiritual roots. The more colors there are, the more spiritual roots there are. The stronger the light, the better the quality of the spiritual root. The color represents the attribute of the spiritual root. If it does not change color or glow, it means it has no spiritual roots and no qualifications for cultivation. You can consider physical cultivation."

"It turns out Lingxi has this ability!"

"That's right. Lingxi knows a lot."

"Okay, I'll go out and take a test first, then come back and talk to Lingxi."

"Well, hurry up, sis."

Gu Nan's consciousness left the space, and as soon as he moved his mind, a colorful light appeared in his hand. After counting carefully, there were five colors, which were the five spiritual roots. The light was weak and the aptitude was average. After the test, he found a jade bottle and carefully placed the fine hair in it.

After returning to the space and asking Lingxi to put the jade bottle away, they talked about Gu Nan's current situation. They planned to find an opportunity to cleanse their bones and marrow and start formal cultivation after the formal apprenticeship ceremony tomorrow. They put this matter aside for the time being. Speaking of the boy named Wang Haojing today, could he be a fragment of Jun Haojing?

"It's possible. Sister knows that he lives in the village. She often goes down the mountain to walk around. If she sees him, she can let the system identify him. The system has the scent of the fragments, so it should be able to confirm it."

"Well, since we came here too early in the timeline, it will take several years for the original body to recognize us. It doesn't seem wise to let the system sleep."

"Sister, I think letting the system see more things with you is also a kind of experience. Maybe it can help the system grow in consciousness and form a life form like me."

"It's possible. If I come across some rare treasure that can enlighten people, I'll keep an eye out for it. If it grows into a living being, you'll have a companion and you won't be bored all the time."

"Really?" Lingxi was so excited when she heard that. She clenched her two little hands and asked nervously.

"Believe that everything is within our control, and that day won't be too far away."
