Du Zhong sat and waited for a while again, this time Gu Qingli seemed to be really fast asleep, there was no sound at all.

He settled down, crossed his legs and adjusted his posture to practice.

This time, no one came to bother me when I settled down, and it took another half a day.By the time Eucommia finished, it was already the next morning, and it was time to have breakfast.

Some handyman disciples politely brought over the food in a food box. Du Zhong opened the door to take it and took a look. They simply sent it to Wuji, so that they would not be treated badly in eating.

After thanking him, he closed the door and sat back on the couch.

Gu Qingli was disturbed by his movement, and grabbed his neckline and poked his head out, opened his mouth and gave a big yawn.

He seemed to be in good condition today, at least he didn't fall down so dazed and staring, and he didn't act like a baby anymore.

Du Zhong didn't speak, he took out the plate and put it on the small table, tore off a small piece of meat and handed it to him.

Gu Qingli was also polite, and immediately took it and ate it.

When Du Zhong saw it, he stretched out his hand and tore all the meat on the plate into small strips for him to prepare.

Gu Qingli paused, seemingly hesitating for a moment, before crawling to the plate to eat.

Du Zhong looked at him carefully, and saw that although he was still the size of a palm today, he didn't look so sick anymore.

The silver scales on his body regained their luster, and his two whiskers were floating in the air, they didn't droop any more, and his appetite looked good.

Apparently turning into a small thing the size of a palm and the thickness of a finger, it also made Gu Qingli very insecure to stroll outside. He quickly ate some meat strips and flew up directly, and went straight back into Du Zhong's cuff.

Du Zhong raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect that yesterday he could fall to the ground with just a touch of a finger, and today he can fly again without saying a word, so he asked, "How do you feel today?"

Gu Qingli muffled in his sleeve for a while as if he didn't hear it, probably because he felt that it was not ideal and didn't really want to tell Du Zhong.

After a while, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate for the first time, and said "um": "Very good. The spiritual energy drawn by Master during cultivation can also help me recover, so don't worry about me."

It was rare that when he didn't want to talk, he still knew to talk to him first, and Du Zhong accepted him when he saw it, and didn't continue to question him.

Because the relationship between the human and monster races has not been very harmonious, there are very few books that introduce how demon cultivators practice.Du Zhong didn't have much contact with Yaoxiu before, so he didn't know how to help Gu Qingli.

Now that he knows that the aura of heaven and earth that he aroused during his cultivation is actually beneficial to him, he feels a little relieved in his heart, and he will continue to meditate immediately.

However, before he could put away the dishes on the table, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Du Zhong trembled, subconsciously grabbed his cuffs before looking up, and said, "Please come in."

It turned out that it wasn't someone else who came, but An He who hadn't appeared since a hasty meeting yesterday.

An He still didn't get used to Du Zhong's current appearance, he stood stiffly by the door and watched him not speak, only slightly raised his hand and pointed inward, signaling that he wanted to go in.

When Du Zhong saw it, he laughed and joked: "I've never seen you so reserved before, so you're a coward?"

He was born to be good-looking, but when he squinted his eyes and smiled, he lost the elegance, his eyes were half intoxicatingly hazy, warm and soft as if water dripped out of the heart, all the way to the heart, scratching people's hearts a little bit Itchy.

An He also felt a little hot on his face for some reason, so he quickly reached out and rubbed his nose to try to cover it up.

But he really did a poor job of covering it up. Du Zhong saw that his face turned red after he dodged his eyes for a while, and the smile froze on his face and changed his taste, showing a bit of embarrassment.

...Why are you looking at me blushing?

He immediately coughed lightly, put away his old unruly look, straightened his posture and called him: "What are you doing standing by the door, come in."

An He immediately came back to his senses, walked over with an "oh" and said, "I originally wanted to visit later yesterday, but the uncles and masters kept pulling me to ask questions, so it was delayed."

"En." Du Zhong watched An He walk to the side of the couch, and motioned for him to sit on the other side.

An He looked at him with some hesitation on his face, and after biting his lower lip, he still asked, "What trouble did Senior Du encounter?"

Du Zhong said "Oh" and didn't say a word. An He saw him and continued: "I saw someone from the Tianxuan sect came to ask for respect from the master, saying that Senior Du betrayed the sect and must be taken back to give an explanation, but Master did not agree."

He added another sentence at the end: "I didn't overhear it by lying on the corner of the wall. I was beside them when they said it."

Du Zhong subconsciously wanted to laugh again, but when he remembered that he could blush just now, he quickly stopped, and said vaguely: "I have encountered some trouble."

"...Senior Du, did you really do something to betray the sect?" An He's expression of worry remained undiminished, "What about Senior Brother Gu?"

Du Zhong couldn't say it directly, so he smiled inscrutablely: "He's fine."

Just lie down on my sleeves.

"That's good." An He nodded, "Brother Gu has always taken good care of me during the previous missions. I was especially afraid that something would happen to him, so I came to ask."

Du Zhong knew that he was talking about the mission they set up when he was old and dying.

Although he was a little surprised at what the other party was doing at the time, he didn't have time to pursue it later. This meeting was suddenly brought up for a moment of curiosity, so he asked casually: "Where did you go to do the mission?"

As soon as he spoke, he felt the white strip on his sleeve flicker as if he was startled awake after falling asleep.

Du Zhong looked down at the sleeves and smacked his lips, vaguely feeling that this matter must be interesting, so that Gu Qingli could react.

An He, however, seemed to have a feeling in his heart, staring at Du Zhong cautiously, with a secretive expression on his face, he only babbled a few other things to try to fool the past, and he didn't want to mention a word about what they were doing at that time.

Du Zhong didn't know if Gu Qingli had said something to An He, but in front of Gu Qingli, he couldn't gossip and ask further questions, so he had to give up.

"I'm actually very worried about Senior Du." Seeing that he didn't ask, An He felt relieved and continued, "I have always admired Senior Brother Gu and liked Senior Du very much, but I was sent out in a hurry for some reason. After leaving Tianxuan, I didn't have time to say goodbye to you, and I didn't receive any news for several days afterwards, so I was always a little uneasy."

Du Zhong nodded, understanding his intentions, An He hesitated and said: "Although I may not be able to help Senior Du, but if Senior needs me, just say, I, An He, will definitely do my best .”

Du Zhong raised his eyebrows, and asked tentatively: "Aren't you afraid that I really did something outrageous?"

An He shook his head: "Brother Gu took good care of me before, I believe that as Senior Brother Gu's master, Senior Du will not be that kind of person, I can trust it."

They had only worked together for a few days before, and Du Zhong didn't know if Gu Qingli had any favors for him later on. Although he didn't know how true these words were, but since he said so It also makes people feel that he values ​​​​love and righteousness.
