The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

Chapter 321 I am a commoner who strayed into the path of immortality

"Is it troublesome, Junior Sister Yan?"

Ye Yongzhen tilted his head and looked at Yan Chichun who was standing behind Xiao Jianxin with a half-smile.

Xiao Jianxin was stunned for a moment.

When did Junior Sister come here?!

"It's not a big deal. As long as Senior Brother Ye is happy."

Yan Chichun waved his sleeves and bowed, then walked straight to where Gu Junming was busy, intending to lend a hand.

"If you can help me, please take all these out. I'm almost dying of exhaustion."

"You've only cooked a few dishes. If anyone's tired, it should be me!"

"Even though you're the chef, you're responsible for lighting the fire, preparing the ingredients, washing, shredding, and dicing..."

"Stop, stop, stop! Stop talking! The fire is getting smaller. Add some more wood."

Gu Junming:...

He is quite good at ordering people around.

Alas, the first day of missing Lao Ba.

I don't know what's going on with Lao Ba...

At the same time.

Far away in the Western Heaven Region, next to a small sand dune.

The carriage had already overturned, and the desert bandits were lying in all directions on the sand, wailing.

The only person standing on the field first waved his hand casually to disperse the flames burning in his palm.

Then he took off the sand-proof hood covering his hair and ears, revealing his true face underneath. It was none other than Lao Ba!

But just when Lao Ba was about to take the next step, he suddenly seemed to sense something and looked back into the distance.

This will...

Senior Brother and the others should have arrived in Beixuan, right?

Gu Junming and his friends not only arrived in Beixuan, but also enjoyed a seafood feast!

Only Lao Ba is still sleeping in the desert...

"It's time to eat!"

"Hurry up, we've been waiting for a long time."

"Is this a crab? It looks just like a spider..."

Following Gu Junming's shout.

Everyone gathered together.

Yan Xixi picked up a crab that was bigger than her palm and looked at it carefully in front of her eyes.

How should I eat this thing?...

"Zhao Zhao, I'll teach you how to peel it."

"Okay! Thank you, Senior Sister!"

"Big Brother!"

"Old Nine, you've grown up... Hey, watch out, I'll only teach you once."

"Hero Xiao, this is delicious, try it!"

"Hehe, thank you Miss Dong'er."

Looking at Yan Xixi who was trying hard to pry open the crab claws, but ended up holding it in so hard that her face turned red.

Yan Chichun sighed softly, picked up a steamed hairy crab, and demonstrated in front of Yan Xixi.

"Look, this is how you eat crabs. First, tear off the legs and claws..."

"Oh I got it!"

The scene was filled with joy.

Even Yan Chichun couldn't help but purse his lips, amused by Yan Xixi's clumsy look in digging crab roe. A dignified swordsman in white, he still needed someone to teach him how to eat crabs.

Ye Yongzhen peeled the shrimp shells skillfully, eating one, putting one aside, and saving the rest for the last bite.

But he glanced at it inadvertently.

Discover......

Qingxuan was staring at the delicious food on the table, but her hands were indifferent.

"Why, are you afraid this thing will bite you?"

"Oh, no, it's not!"

"Haven't you learned how to eat crayfish yet?"

"Ha, haha, I might be a little stupid..."

Ye Yongzhen chuckled and shook his head, then pushed the peeled ones over.

"Well, you're welcome."

"But......"

"Eat it! I'll teach you a quick way to peel shrimp later. Don't tell anyone!"

"Well, then... you're welcome!"

Hai Nianxiang looked at everyone at the table with a smile on her face.

She didn't have much appetite.

But for her, as long as others are happy eating, she is satisfied.

It's a pity that the little foodie is gone, otherwise I would be so happy to see this scene...

"Anything on your mind?"

Gu Junming noticed Hai Nianxiang who was sitting in a daze.

"No."

Hai Nianxiang shook her head, "I just feel a little emotional."

"for example?"

Hai Nianxiang did not answer Gu Junming's question directly, but glanced at Ye Yongzhen.

At this point, Gu Junming understood instantly.

"Maybe it's a little inappropriate for me to say this now, but actually..."

"I know it's my fault that I failed to persuade Tang'er."

Hai Nianxiang reached out and stroked the prosthetic limb. "I don't blame him. If I had been more resolute back then..."

My thoughts seem to drift back to the past.

——Ten years ago...

While Hai Nianxiang was on her way to evacuate a group of sea people, she was attacked by a sea monster. At the cost of her leg, she was about to die with the sea monster when Jiang Tang'er arrived in time and rescued her.

At that time, Hai Nianxiang, who had already lost her right leg, was held in Jiang Tang'er's arms and was about to fall into a coma.

She grabbed Jiang Tang'er's arm tightly and repeatedly begged Jiang Tang'er not to get involved in this mess, claiming that this was the sea clan's own business and had nothing to do with Jiang Tang'er.

But the gradually heavy eyelids and blurred consciousness made Hai Nianxiang unable to remember what Jiang Tang'er said at the end. She only remembered that Jiang Tang'er seemed to...

As usual, I played a little joke on her:

【Wait for me to come back and give you wedding candy! 】

If I could come back, this time...

I should be able to eat wedding candy.

Gu Junming was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, "It's all in the past, don't think too much about it."

"Has the date for the grand ceremony been set?"

"Everything is ready and we can start at any time."

Hai Nianxiang didn't think about those things for now.

She thought for a moment and replied, "But they're still arguing internally and haven't reached a unified opinion. It will probably be held before the New Year."

"Do you need my help?"

Gu Junming asked.

"No, don't underestimate me!"

Hai Nianxiang covered her lips and chuckled softly. Then, as if remembering something, she asked tentatively, "Since you have already withdrawn from the immortal path, what are your plans for the future?"

"After this matter is over, I think... I should return to my hometown in the Central Plains."

Gu Junming shrugged indifferently, "Just live an ordinary life."

Falling from a powerful and powerful master to a mortal, it might be difficult for others to accept it.

But in just a few decades, Gu Junming had experienced almost everything he needed to experience.

like......

There is nothing left to do...

Becoming an immortal? Never thought of it.

I am originally a person of the secular world.

By chance, he was led into the path of immortality. From a little beggar who had no food to eat, he grew up step by step to become the Sword Master respected by the world.

And then he became the eternal sinner.

To put it bluntly, Gu Junming's deeds could be published in a book.

Gu Junming planned to stand up after the Sea God Festival was successfully concluded, and do his best to make up for the mistakes he had made in the past, and calmly accept the cause and effect that was destined by fate.

What is meant to come will come naturally.

After all this is over, if I am still alive, I will return to my hometown in the Central Plains, live a simple life as an ordinary person and live the rest of my life in peace and quiet.

"Just you?"

"You can also raise a couple of cows, or small animals like cats and dogs."

"I mean, you don't plan on... finding someone to spend the rest of your life with?"

“Taking care of people is really tiring…”

If there is an afterlife...

Forget it, being the eldest brother is not bad either.
