My vest is not human [comprehensive martial arts]
Chapter 54 Tranquility
After Min Daochang left, Ximen Chuuxue and Lu Xiaofeng also returned to Wanmei Villa.Young Master Gu didn't need to spend his time entertaining guests, so he stayed by Gu Anning's side all the time.
The young man on the bed seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and he slept soundly, even though such a big thing happened, he didn't even notice it.
Gu An Ning's life has always been very simple, even simpler than that of ordinary people, so simple that Mr. Gu can't even worry about making friends, lest he get hurt a little.
But after meeting Gu Anning's eyes, Mr. Gu felt that such protection is very necessary.
Gu Anning half drooped her eyelids, huddled in the thin quilt.He remembered being aggressive in front of his elder brother during the mission and asking about the date of his death.Even the pain caused by Yin Qi could not divert his attention, so that he would no longer feel guilty.
Daoist Min is not a person who drives away everything, he only wants to drive away the qi-eating ghost, he doesn't want to hurt it.It was only because he couldn't stand Gu Anning's pleading and the pain he showed, that he agreed.
During the mission, Gu Anning was one with the ghost, and he could also feel the damage the gas-eater suffered.I just don't know if it will affect my body, Gu Anning didn't dare to take the risk, and left the mission after Min Zhiwei agreed.
Just waking up from a lethargic sleep, while adapting to the increasingly thick Yin Qi, he looked at the system tasks and heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that he had received the true essence.
He didn't want to fail again, it was really hard to lose the favor of the system.
"Brother, why are you here?" After sleeping for a long time, Gu Anning's voice was hoarse.
He seemed to be in a daze, and it took him a while to wake up.Mr. Gu didn't become suspicious, nor did he show any abnormalities, as if the gas-eater never existed.
Young Master Gu said, "Seeing that you have slept for so long, I am a little worried. Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Gu Anning immediately realized that, from Eldest Master Gu's point of view, his symptoms of Yin Qi invasion this time were caused by ghosts invisible to the naked eye.Daoist Min came over to drive away the qi-eating ghost, so he wouldn't feel as uncomfortable as before.
Gu Anning was a little disappointed.
It seems that even Daoist Min didn't see the source of his pain.Turning off the system to protect these days can only be carried over a little bit, there is no other way.
"It's not uncomfortable anymore." Gu Anning said something wrong during the mission, and didn't want to make Eldest Young Master Gu worry any more.The body has gradually adapted to the cold yin qi, and it can be controlled to no longer show obvious abnormalities.
It's just that his face is still pale and frighteningly pale, and his lips don't have any blood.Young Master Gu thought that he was just recovering from a serious illness and needed time to recuperate, so he didn't think too much about it.
He said, "Take a good rest these days and get better as soon as possible."
Seeing his kind eyes, Gu Anning felt terrified, and couldn't think of something to tease—Mr. Gu has indeed raised him both as a father and a mother these years.The dead parents are the pain they tacitly don't want to mention.
He nodded, "Is it almost Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Young Master Gu could tell what he was thinking when he saw his eyes, and couldn't help but said, "There are still seven days. Qiutang is already preparing moon cakes for the sacrifice, and there is osmanthus wine brewed not long ago in the cellar, and it is ready to drink. But the servants also picked sweet-scented osmanthus and chrysanthemums, and planned to make them into cakes."
Gu Anning's birthday is five days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it almost coincides with the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"I haven't had sweet-scented osmanthus wine yet." Gu Anning looked at him expectantly, "Is it good? I heard it's sweet."
"When you take care of your body, you'll know after a taste, but don't be greedy."
"Okay." Young Master Gu's attitude was very gentle, and he didn't tell him about the gas-eater.Gu Anning felt very guilty, but she couldn't take the initiative to speak up, so she just let it go.
"Speaking of drinking, Lu Xiaofeng seems to like wine very much. Where has he gone?"
Eldest Young Master Gu said, "Lu Xiaofeng is a person who can't rest, and he will come back when he finishes what he is doing."
The system has been very quiet these past few days. Gu Anning lay half dead on the bed and on the soft couch in the yard every day. It was not yet the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the sun was still glaring. A lot of health.
The time limit for the system to turn off the protection has not yet passed, Gu Anning is lazily lying under the tree, holding the bean paste mooncake made by Qiutang in his hand, squinting his eyes to eat.There is not much caramel in the bean paste stuffing, but the materials are processed very well. The water used to boil the beans is also sweet well water, without any beany smell, but with a touch of sweetness.Ghee is mixed in the crust, which tastes soft and glutinous.
After eating, Gu Anning half closed his eyes, stretched out his hand and took out another piece.
"Second Young Master." Qiutang frowned and called out.
Gu Anning paused and put the mooncake back.
Qiutang smiled and said, "There is also watermelon prepared at home, young master be careful not to eat it."
Gu Anning said, "Watermelon is edible, but there is probably no place in the stomach for that pile of bitter medicine."
"The servant girl thinks that the young master's health is more important. The young master should not eat watermelon, save it for medicine." She said, she cleared away the dishes on the small table, and put them away together with the tea.
Gu Anning knew that Qiutang was joking, so she didn't feel ashamed.He is in a good mood today, even though he is full of gloom, he can't restrain his happiness.
"Will Ximen Chuuxue really come?" Gu Anning asked, "I haven't seen him for a long time."
Qiu Tang said, "Manor Ximen came to the manor in person a few days ago, saying that he hadn't seen Second Young Master for a long time, and it's your birthday again, so he came over to catch up."
"Reminiscing about the past..." Gu Anning suddenly became a little nervous.
He doesn't understand Ximen Chuuxue's sword, and Ximen Chuuxue doesn't understand the ghosts he saw.They are people from two worlds. Even if they got along well in the early years, it is inevitable that they will be unfamiliar after seeing each other for such a long time.
There was a sudden noise outside the yard, Gu Anning glanced outside, but saw nothing.
Qiutang said, "Servant, go and have a look."
"Go."
Gu Anning licked her lips, the sweet smell of mooncake meringue remained on it.
The mooncakes he ate were made by Qiutang herself. Qiutang has never been exposed to these before, but she has a good talent and makes them well.Because she was afraid that Gu Anning would eat too much, she purposely made the mooncakes small.Gu Anning only ate two of them, and she wasn't satisfied yet.
It was rare to be leisurely, Gu Anning saw the blue sky through the leaves above his head, thinking about the meal he was going to eat at noon, and when Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuuxue would come.
After a while, Qiutang came back.
She still had a smile on her face, but Gu Anning felt that there was something else in the smile, which made him unable to understand.
"What happened outside?" Gu Anning asked.
"People are coming from the capital." Qiutang said, "Master Langzhong came to the master's house to celebrate the second young master's birthday."
When Gu Anning's parents passed away, he also came to Gu's Village.
The direct lineage of the Gu family is Gu Anning's lineage, and the collateral line is in the capital.There was almost no contact between the two sides, and Gu Anning didn't know that there was such a person until seven years ago.
According to his seniority, Gu Anning and Young Master Gu had to call him uncle.Gu Anning doesn't know his name, but he only knows that he works in the Military Department of the Central Court, and he is not a few years older than Young Master Gu, and Langzhong is his official position.
Qiu Tang said, "Second Young Master, please go to the front hall to meet guests."
Gu Anning didn't expect that this year's birthday would be so grand, besides Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuuxue, there was also a cousin who hadn't seen each other that much came to celebrate.He is not used to such lively scenes, especially since he himself is the protagonist of this banquet, and all the topics revolve around him.On the surface, Gu Anning's simple life is fine, but even with a lively person like Lu Xiaofeng present, it is still awkward.
Uncle Gu's Tang who came from the capital looked for a topic in embarrassment, "I never thought that An Ning would be on good terms with Master Ximen, what's even more rare is that Master Ximen still misses An Ning, the friendship between you two is really invaluable. "
Gu Anning saw Lu Xiaofeng twitching the corner of his mouth, picked up the glass and took a sip of the wine.He looked at Eldest Young Master Gu again, feeling in his heart that Young Master Gu and Ximen Chuuxue had a better relationship.
Ximen Chuuxue didn't intend to speak.
Qiu Tang said that he would come to talk to Gu An Ning about the old days, but he never spoke to him from the beginning to the end, at most he only responded perfunctorily.
The birthday party was not at all what it was imagined.
Gu Anning took a bite of food and thought for a long time but didn't know how to answer.
Young Master Gu said, "It's true that the two of them haven't seen each other for a long time. An Ning doesn't have many friends, and Ximen Chuuxue doesn't have many friends, so naturally they won't forget each other."
His attitude towards Tangshu was similar to that towards Lu Xiaofeng, and he didn't mean to treat him as an elder at all.Uncle Gu Tang was not annoyed, he was already a fifth-rank official in the imperial court at a young age, and the collateral line had long since lost contact with the main family, and there was no distinction between a descendant and concubine, but he still condescended to celebrate a junior's birthday, and He didn't make any gestures, and the gifts he brought were very heavy, so he must be asking for something.
Gu Tangshu smiled and said, "I heard that Ximen Chuuxue's swordsmanship is superb, and there are few opponents in the Jianghu. Only Nanhai Yegucheng can be compared. I wonder if it is true?"
Ximen Chuuxue finally responded, "We must fight him!"
Gu Tangshu still smiled, "I hope my wish will be fulfilled as soon as possible."
Lu Xiaofeng also followed the topic. He picked up a few unimportant things from the cases he investigated, "Speaking of which, there is also a person named Ye in Wudang, who is Ye Gucheng's cousin, named Ye Lingfeng. Ye Lingfeng's body There is a man and two women. The man’s name is Ye Guhong. He is still a childish young man. He really admires Ximen, and his clothes are very similar to yours. When I saw him for the first time, I thought I was looking at him. Dazzled."
He didn't mention that Ye Guhong's swordsmanship was also practiced according to his, because he was afraid of offending Ximen Chuuxue.
Lu Xiaofeng felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, but after he finished speaking, except for Ximen Chuuxue's normal expression, the rest of them, even Gu Anning, all behaved unnaturally.
"What's the matter?" Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard, wondering.
Gu Anning asked, "Does Ye Lingfeng have a daughter named Ye Xue?"
"You know her?" Lu Xiaofeng was surprised.
Because he met two girls, Ye Xue and Ye Ling, in the ghost villa.He knew that Gujiazhuang was very powerful, but he didn't expect that even Ghost Villa could be related to Gujiazhuang.
——After all, even Gu Anning, who doesn't care about worldly affairs, knows it.
Suppressing the surprise in his heart, when Lu Xiaofeng recalled Ye Xue, the first thing he thought of was her beautiful face and perfect figure, and then the two sisters, Ye Ling and Ye Xue, were obsessed with him.
He stroked his beard again, and said, "Ye Xue is a very gentle girl."
The young man on the bed seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and he slept soundly, even though such a big thing happened, he didn't even notice it.
Gu An Ning's life has always been very simple, even simpler than that of ordinary people, so simple that Mr. Gu can't even worry about making friends, lest he get hurt a little.
