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

Gu Junming came to the small courtyard surrounded by bamboo forest alone.

But he was a step too late. Yan Chichun had already taken the Chinese medicine and lay down to rest.

Gu Junming sat in front of Yan Chichun's bed and stayed with her quietly for a while.

Looking at Yan Chichun's face sleeping peacefully, Gu Junming felt complicated.

If the facts are really as Ye Yongzhen said, Yan Chichun slaughtered many people outside who were not sure whether they were innocent or guilty, then his junior sister is no longer the same as she was in his memory.

It is true that everyone grows and changes.

But Gu Junming still didn't want Yan Chichun to be involved in too many worldly causes and effects.

But he also knew that everyone has their own destiny.

Different people have different personalities, which lead to different destinies.

Some things cannot be forced.

Gu Junming only hoped that Yan Chichun would not let him down.

Don't let him lose hope in Yan Chichun.

When leaving, Gu Junming covered Yan Chichun with a quilt, took out a small and exquisite brocade bag from his arms, and gently placed it on the bedside.

This was given to Gu Junming by Yu Xiaoyao's deceased grandmother.

Over the years, Gu Junming has been wearing it as a talisman.

But today, he decided to give this item to Yan Chichun.

I hope Yan Chichun can overcome this difficulty smoothly and be safe in the future.

After that, Gu Junming stopped disturbing her and turned to walk out of the house.

"Leaving now?"

Jiang Laier, who was in the yard, caught a glimpse of Gu Junming walking out of the house.

She continued weaving the bamboo basket in her hand and said casually, "Your junior brother has gone out to buy groceries. Let's go after dinner."

Gu Junming walked up to Jiang Lai'er with a smile on his face. He reached into his sleeve, took out a ring, and placed it on the only stone table in the yard. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble during this period."

"A little care is not disrespectful."

Jiang Lai'er glanced at the ring and said calmly, "The curse on you is actually not unsolvable."

Gu Junming had already walked to the gate of the courtyard, but he stopped when he heard this.

"I once saw a case related to yours in a rubbing."

Jiang Laier's hands kept moving, but she was talking to Gu Junming who was behind her.

"In the past, before the Great Destruction, when Buddhism was at its peak..."

Gu Junming perked up and thought that maybe it was time to go to Baoliantian again!

"There is a method in Taoism that can transfer cause and effect."

Taoism...

Gu Junming smiled bitterly. He knew about the broken Buddhist Pure Land, Baoliantian, and had even been there with Ye Yongzhen. But Taoism was a name that only existed in historical records.

The records about them are even scarcer than those of those ancient ethnic groups.

It is estimated that it had already declined before the great destruction in ancient times.

If Jiang Lai'er was talking about Buddhism, Gu Junming could try his luck by going to the Western Paradise.

But if it's the Dao Sect...

"Perhaps, Liyang Academy has the answer you want."

"Liyang Academy?"

"good."

Jiang Lai'er picked up a small knife beside her and cut away the barbs on the bamboo strips. She continued, "Liyang Academy was built on the site of a Taoist sect. Taoist culture is profound. Perhaps their first master was a surviving Taoist disciple from ancient times."

Gu Junming hesitated for a moment and asked, "How did you know this?"

"How did you know..."

Jiang Lai'er put down the knife and tilted her head slightly: "Do you need me to explain it to you?"

"Um, if that's okay..."

"Ok?"

"Thank you, doctor, for your guidance!"

After bowing, Gu Junming fled in shame.

And after Gu Junming left.

Jiang Laier snorted coldly, then she picked up the woven bamboo basket and placed it in front of her to carefully admire her masterpiece. Suddenly, she burst out laughing, as if she remembered something.

"What are you afraid of? I'm just a little girl. I won't eat you."

“They say that the brave will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation.”

"But some people prefer the opposite...cowards!"

Soon, Xiao Jianxin also came back after buying vegetables.

But next to him, there was a lively Dong'er.

"Master Xiao, I didn't realize you could cook!"

"Hehe, in the past, Senior Brother was often away, so we had to do it ourselves most of the time."

This sentence is quite true.

At the beginning, Xiao Jianxin and Yan Chichun joined Taiyi Sect three days apart. Compared with Gu Junming, who was much older than them, Xiao Jianxin and Yan Chichun were no different from Xi Zhaozhao now.

At that time, Gu Junming was still a teenager and had not yet achieved the title of "Sword King". He often went down the mountain to gain experience and might not come back for a year or two.

But fortunately, Gu Junming is still responsible.

He deliberately waited until Xiao Jianxin and Yan Chichun had adapted to life in the mountains before continuing his training.

At that time, Xiao Jianxin, who had memories of his previous life and knew astronomy and geography, could be said to be Yan Chichun's idol, second only to the powerful senior brother.

Xiao Jianxin is responsible for taking care of Yan Chichun's daily life.

Over time, a subtle feeling will inevitably arise in the girl's heart.

Maybe it was dependence when one was lonely, maybe it was longing when one was weak, but it was definitely not like today, where one always wants to be superior to the other person no matter big or small.

There are differences in ideas, opinions, and interests.

It's as if they were born to be enemies!

Maybe Yan Chichun is also watching now, still holding on to his hope for Xiao Jianxin.

Otherwise, Yan Chichun had countless opportunities to wipe out Xiao Jianxin without anyone knowing!

"Then I'll have to taste your cooking!"

Dong'er said with a smile.

Once upon a time, there was also a girl like Dong'er who said the same thing to Xiao Jianxian.

Looking at Dong'er's bright smiling face, it seemed to overlap with a face in my memory.

Xiao Jianxin quickly shook his head.

Trying to get rid of distracting thoughts.

Miss Dong'er is Miss Dong'er, and Junior Sister is Junior Sister, how can they be compared?

"Can not be done?"

Dong'er suddenly showed a look of regret.

"No, no, how could that be."

Xiao Jianxin hurriedly explained, "I was distracted just now. I hope Miss Dong'er won't blame me!"

"If you don't mind..."

"Hehe, why would I dislike it?"

Dong'er's face broke into a smile again, but then she scolded him again, "How many times have I told you to call me 'Dong'er', Master Xiao? Why are you always so reserved?"

"But......"

Xiao Jianxin felt awkward: "Don't you often call me 'Hero Xiao'?"

"That's different!"

Dong'er said seriously, "You are my savior. Calling you 'Hero' is a sign of gratitude and respect. Otherwise, if I call you by your name..."

Dong'er pursed her lips. She wanted to call Xiao Jianxin's name directly to get closer to him.

But I didn't have the courage to say it.

"Junior Brother Xiao."

"Yes! Does the Divine Doctor have anything important to tell you?"

Xiao Jianxin responded to the call. He came to Jiang Lai'er respectfully, bent down slightly, and bowed.

Be sincere and don't put on airs.

"Nothing. Your senior brother came by not long ago and asked me to tell you that the last fragment of the Demon Eye has been found and that a grand ceremony for the Sea God will be held soon."

"When the time comes, I hope you can bring your junior sister with you."

Jiang Laier spoke lightly.

"But Junior Sister..."

"If you're just joining in the fun, it's not a big deal. Anyway, it depends on your mood."
