"Burp."
A soft sound pulled Gu Zheng back from his thoughts. He looked back and found that it came from Xiao Lan's mouth.
"Sorry." Xiao Lan, who was blushing shyly, wished she could crawl under the table, but she was too full and immediately burped again, making her feel very embarrassed.
"Drink some water, don't worry." Shuang 'er took out a cup of water and handed it over to her, comforting her.
"Thank you." Xiao Lan took it embarrassedly.
"I'm so full, so full. I haven't eaten so full in a long time. Big Brother Gu, if you have any questions, just ask." Ah Shui also slowed down and said to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't have any other new questions, but he still asked about their past again. Ah Shui's answer was almost the same as what he knew. Even if there were some small differences, it wouldn't be a big deal.
However, he didn't expect Ah Shui to be only ten years old and Xiao Lan to be only eight years old. Seeing the other party's experienced appearance, it seemed that they had really suffered a lot.
By the time Gu Zheng finished asking, the food on the table was almost finished by the two of them.
"Come with me." After understanding everything, Gu Zheng suddenly said to Ah Shui.
Originally, according to Gu Zheng's original idea, after examining the other party's character, he would directly give the cultivation method to the other party and let them memorize it by rote. After that, it would have nothing to do with him.
However, the current situation was about to set off a war. When that time came, they wouldn't be able to become strong at all. A random wave could drown the two of them. Then, his efforts would be wasted and useless.
Moreover, Gu Zheng also had an idea in his mind. He needed some time to realize it. In any case, these cultivation methods were useless to him. He might as well peel them out from his memories and insert them into the green crystal. This was the only suitable material he had on hand. The others were too precious. Besides, he didn't have the materials.
As long as he let the other party learn this cultivation method, they could consume a very small amount of energy to look at the complete cultivation method again. Besides, Gu Zheng would also leave the restriction method in it. If they were to inherit it, the other party could see it wherever he wanted them to see it.
The restriction also had a time limit. If no one activated it within ten thousand years, then anyone with superior aptitude would be able to view it. In this way, even if the other party's inheritance was not forever protected, it would at least guarantee that the other party's inheritance would continue to be passed down for millions of years. As long as the other party's inheritance was not lost in some special location, it could continue to be passed down.
The two siblings happened to be perfect test subjects for him. Of course, there were only benefits and no disadvantages for them.
"What?" Ah Shui was stunned at first, then he immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum. "No, no, Big Brother Gu, I still have a younger sister to take care of at home. I can't be your attendant."
Ah Shui thought that Gu Zheng had taken a fancy to him and wanted to take him away. However, if he did so, there would be no one to take care of his sister. He was unwilling to do so.
"Unless you want to bring my sister with you." Ah Shuai looked at the other party's wealthy identity. He had also heard that when Sister Shuang Er came, she was imposing. She must be from a wealthy family. If the siblings sold themselves to the other party's family, it would be better than being half-dead like them.
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He just looked at Ah Shuai with a faint smile, which made Ah Shuai's hair stand on end. Ah Shuai's hair stood on end.
On the other hand, Xiao Lan also lowered her head and did not dare to breathe loudly. She also hoped that her brother would follow the two of them, even if she did not.
"I think Sister Shuang Er also lacks a maidservant. My younger sister is also nimble with her hands. She knows how to wash and cook. My clothes are all mended by her. Her skills are especially good." In the beginning, Ah Shui also wanted to try his best to persuade the other party. However, later on, he thought that since the other party was so rich, perhaps they did not lack maidservants at all. His voice became even more downcast.
"It's okay, Big Brother. Didn't the Xu family in the east ask me to be their maidservant many times? If you can't go with them, I can go there too. The Xu family is not bad. They won't treat me badly. " Xiao Lan said considerately. Although she tried her best to hold on, the disappointment in her voice could still be heard. She was only willing to do this for the sake of Ah Shui's bright future.
"No, I won't leave you alone. No matter what, I want to be with you. I won't leave you alone," Ah Shui's expression turned serious as he immediately said to Xiao Lan. He then turned his head and said solemnly.
"Big Brother Gu, thank you for your support, but I won't leave my younger sister alone no matter what, so I can't go with you. You should also take back the money."
Before Gu Zheng could say anything, Shuang Er was amused by Ah Shui's words. She laughed out loud, causing Ah Shui to be at a loss. He did not know what was going on.
"Did I say that I'll only take you with me? Besides, I'm not asking you to follow me as a servant. "Gu Zheng smiled and said to them.
At this time, Ah Shui did not hear Gu Zheng's words clearly. He was overjoyed. He knew that the other party was going to take him and his younger sister away from here. He was not afraid of suffering a little, but his younger sister would finally not suffer with him.
"Thank you, Big Brother Gu. I'll do whatever you ask me to do in the future. Whether it's a mountain of knives or a sea of fire in front of me, or sweeping the floor and cooking, I'm willing to serve you," the excited Ah Shui said incoherently.
On the other side, Xiao Lan's face was also flushed with excitement. She clasped her hands together tightly.
"Ah Shui, Ah Shui."
At this moment, a loud shout sounded from outside, accompanied by messy footsteps. The sound stopped outside the house. Only one person had left. He had tried his best.
"Boss Sun?"
Ah Shui, who was a little excited, looked at the slightly plump body in front of him in shock. Why did his boss come over?
"I heard that someone bullied you and your sister, so I immediately brought people over. However, it seems that I'm late. You don't need my help." Boss Sun, whose eyes could only be seen through a slit, glanced at Gu Zheng and Shuang Er and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Boss Sun. I'm safe and sound now." Ah Shui looked from the door and saw a few familiar faces. His heart also felt warm.
"It's good that you're fine. It seems that your wealth is here. I won't disturb you." Sun Laodun cupped his hands to Gu Zheng as a greeting and then left.
Soon, everyone at the door disappeared along with the chaotic footsteps.
Gu Zheng waited for a while to give them some time to consume. Then, an unfamiliar young man came from outside with a thick bag in his hand.
"This is your salary. Actually, the boss has been saving it for you all these years. He was afraid that you would spend it recklessly."
After saying that, the young man left in a hurry.
"It seems that your boss is not bad." Gu Zheng chuckled and continued, "I don't want you to be my servant. I want you to be my disciple. I'll teach you the art of cultivation. Oh right, I'll teach your sister as well. I'll teach you both equally."
Gu Zheng said everything in one breath so that the other party would not think too much.
"What!" Ah Shui was stunned by this huge pie. He really didn't care whether he was an Immortal Cultivator or not. If the other party wanted to treat him as a disciple, it would be a world of difference from when he was just a servant.
Although he couldn't tell whether the other party was an Immortal or not, the other party was confident in teaching him the Immortal Cultivation Technique. He definitely wouldn't deliberately cheat him, a kid who had nothing.
"Yes, you didn't hear wrong. I will teach you both. Oh right, Shuang Er, take them outside to buy more clothes. We will stay here for two days and then get ready to leave." The first part was for Ah Shui and the rest, the second part was for Shuang Er.
Seeing this, Shuang Er pulled Xiao Lan, who still didn't understand, and Ah Shui, who was still in a mess, out of the room, ready to buy a lot.
When the other party walked out, Gu Zheng casually set up a barrier.
Then, he began to take out small fragments of crystals. These were originally prepared for Feifei and were prepared to give them to it before they parted. However, when Zhu Fei told him that Feifei's cultivation was also at the peak of the gold immortal realm, these things became useless to it outside.
Little crystal lights began to appear slowly, and thumb-sized crystals slowly floated in the air, illuminating the entire room in an incomparably gloomy green color. It looked gloomy.
Gu Zheng's lips moved slightly, and a little whisper gradually began to reverberate in the room. Soon, green words appeared out of thin air and began to line up neatly in the air, covering half of the sky.
If someone took a closer look, they would find that this was a very precious high-level cultivation technique. If one cultivated it to the end, it was enough to allow one to cultivate to Jin Xian. Moreover, at the end, there were even annotations about some of the difficulties in cultivating this cultivation technique.
If anyone with a foundation obtained it, at least in the early stage, they would be able to cultivate smoothly without anyone's guidance.
When the words in the sky had just stabilized, Gu Zheng began to spit out golden runes from his mouth. They twisted and changed shape in the air, transforming into the exact same shape as the words above, and deeply imprinted on it.
It caused the green words to have more golden light attached to them.
At the same time, Gu Zheng's hand began to constantly move, and a dao technique was continuously shot into the air. A layer of red light at his wrist turned into a ray of light that suddenly shot to the other party's side.
A golden flame phantom suddenly appeared around the green crystal in the air. The originally somewhat irregular green crystal, under the burning and refining of the flame phantom, began to transform into a smooth and round shape.
With the passage of time, a bright and natural gemstone that looked like a green agate appeared in the air. It was emerald green and radiated spiritual light in all directions. At the very core of the gemstone, an extremely inconspicuous golden flame was burning in wisps.
Faint Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi constantly poured in from the air, causing the shrunken green ball to flash with a trace of green light from time to time. It was very charming and beautiful.
After all of this was done, Gu Zheng at this time, at this time, a golden light entered the words above, and began to lead the words to be engraved on the green ball one by one.
Every word entered the surface of the green ball. They would instantly merge into it, and suddenly appear above the flame in the deepest part of it, as if they were being baked. The entire word melted into a drop of gas in the blink of an eye, and completely merged into the green ball.
As the words in the sky disappeared one by one, illusory words appeared almost at the same time in the green ball. They constantly rotated and flowed, and finally disappeared, and a dazzling crystal appeared in the air in front of him.
Gu Zheng casually waved his hand, and the crystal naturally fell into his hand. Gu Zheng's hand tightly grasped it, and the room returned to how it was before.
But then, the golden light in Gu Zheng's hand once again shone brightly, and after a full incense stick's worth of time, it slowly dissipated.
A slightly bright green bead appeared in Gu Zheng's hand. It did not look as conspicuous as before, but Gu Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
At this time, in his mind, the records on the stone tablet had disappeared, and at the same time, the thread of karma had been injected into the green ball.
Next, as long as he perfectly found an inheritor for this green ball, then his task would be completed. The longer the inheritor passed on the green ball, the more perfect his task would be.
Of course, Gu Zheng hoped that it would be passed on endlessly, so that the human race would have another layer of power below.
After a short rest, Gu Zheng refined another green ball in the same way.
These two balls were prepared for Ah Shuai and his sister. Even if Gu Zheng wanted to refine them, he had to stop because of the emptiness in his body.
Although there was no suppression after rushing up from below, his body was already empty. Although it looked scary, his actual strength level was less than the third level.
This was also the reason why Gu Zheng was not in a hurry to go to Feng City, but started to learn some ordinary inheritors along the way. This way, by the time he reached Feng City, he would have recovered his full strength, and he could stir up a storm again.
When Xue 'er, Zhao Man, and the others were involved, intentionally or unintentionally, Gu Zheng was already involved. Otherwise, Goblin would not deliberately want to eliminate him.
Just as he was about to catch his breath, Gu Zheng's expression changed. The boundary outside the door quietly disappeared, and the noise outside came in again.
Soon, Shuang 'er came back with Ah Shuai and Xiao Lan, who had changed a lot. Both of them were full of smiles, especially Xiao Lan, who still couldn't put her hands down. Looking at the beautiful clothes on her body, she looked even cuter and more charming than before.
Clothes make the man, and saddle make the horse. Ah Shuai, who was wearing fine black satin, looked very energetic when he was sleeping.
At this time, Gu Zheng was not in a hurry to teach them. After arranging for Shuang 'er to treat some minor problems in their bodies for the time being, Gu Zheng was ready to go out again.
One was to buy some very basic herbs. Gu Zheng realized that if he were to leave these inheritances to these very ordinary people, it would be difficult for them to quickly comprehend without a foundation.
Ah Shuai and Xiao Lan were still okay. He could guide them by the side, at least they would not be blinded. However, if the descendants of those people were completely reduced to ordinary people, they would not have the resources to take the first step even if he gave them the inheritances.
Therefore, Gu Zheng was ready to go out and buy some basic herbs, at least for them to cleanse their meridians.
Of course, he also wanted to see if there were any caravans and follow them. On the way, he could also carefully train Shuang 'er, who could hardly do anything.
With his experience, he knew how to strengthen the other party's foundation in the shortest time possible and stimulate more potential in their bodies.
The arrival of Gu Zheng and the others did not cause much of a stir in the small town. It only became a topic of conversation for some people. There was no one here, and they seemed to be in a hurry when they walked. It was as if everyone knew that something unusual was going to happen. The busiest place was the place where food was sold. The entrance of every shop was crowded with people.
Gu Zheng walked through the crowd and came to a relatively quiet pharmacy. There were only a few patients inside. When a servant saw Gu Zheng, his sleepy eyes immediately widened and he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Young Master, are you here to see a doctor or to get medicine?"
"Get the medicine. Get me twenty sets according to the prescription." Gu Zheng handed over a prescription that he had already written. It was all very common things.
"Okay, let me take a look." The servant took the prescription and glanced at it. He immediately frowned.
"Why? Don't you have it? "Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes, yes. It's just that we don't have that many for the time being. Half a month ago, a person asked for a large batch of this thing last time and swept away our inventory. For the time being, we only have five sets left." The servant said with a wry smile.
"Okay, pick up the rest. Five sets it is." Gu Zheng pondered for a moment and then said.
"Okay, Young Master, please wait a moment."
Looking at the servant who was taking things for him, Gu Zheng felt very strange. Why would someone ask for so many things? The last one was basically used as a kind of material to strengthen the muscles and bones in the human world, and it was rarely used.
But now, there was basically no such practice because it was too taxing on the body. Only those who had a little cultivation of internal strength would practice it. If there was a slight mistake in the practice, the sequelae would be very serious.
However, it could also be a coincidence. But five sets were enough. He would sell it next time when there was a chance. Gu Zheng did not take it to heart.
Taking out his own medicinal herbs, he hurriedly left here.
However, Gu Zheng did not go back. Instead, he looked in the direction of the North Gate again. There was a particularly large open space there, and all of them were temporarily stationed with some merchants and merchants.
Because they would enter the territory of the Lan Nation next, but it was very far from the next small city, most of them would rest here.
Some small merchant groups would gather together to resist unknown dangers in the outside world. The large merchant groups would also bring small merchant groups. As long as the other party paid a portion of the golden thread, they would be able to protect the other party.
A few years ago, almost every country was in turmoil, causing countless people to be displaced. There were also some fleeing soldiers who grouped together to become bandits and rob people.
Therefore, the roads that used to be very safe had now become dangerous. There were already a few people who escaped back who knew about it.
These merchants who traveled from the south to the north were very clear, so it had become normal for them to stay together for warmth. Now the city seemed to be peaceful, but when the final battle between the armies came, it would definitely affect most of the countries.
Gu Zheng's goal was to hitch a ride with a merchant group and let them bring a few of them.
And many people who were strong were also favored by everyone at this time.
So when Gu Zheng arrived here, the whole market was chaotic. Those who had just arrived had not yet recovered or were preparing to leave. The merchant groups of the Lan Nation filled Gu Zheng's eyes.
Gu Zheng's attire naturally attracted the attention of many people. However, the small merchant group shifted their gaze away as soon as they saw him. They were looking for guards who could fight.
But the large merchant group did not look away. For them, they had a group of guards who could fight. Being able to bring some rich people would bring them some extra income.
And in case of an accident, these small merchant groups would also be a natural barrier, killing two birds with one stone.
