The longest road He Gu has traveled was a trap set by his junior sister.
What seems like a simple problem turns out to be not only a set within a set, but also a set outside of it.
After thinking about it, I should actually treat things as casually as possible, just choose one of the two women and fool him.
This can prove that he has nothing wrong with him and doesn't think too much.
Now his hesitant behavior revealed that there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place.
After thinking about this, He Gu's first reaction was to feel wronged.
He doesn't have any thoughts towards this cute girl Kong Rou, he just has a general love for her.
At least that's the case for now.
The reason why he hesitated was because he was afraid that giving it to Kong Rou would cause his junior sister to misunderstand and make her unhappy.
I gave it to my junior sister but couldn't bear to see Kongrou, who was considered a half-disciple, lose.
At that time, I didn't consider the two as a comparison of love.
Although he had his own genuine reasons for doing so, he now had no way to defend himself against this behavior.
Asking yourself, he probably does have some selfish thoughts.
He didn't want to deceive himself about this.
Ever since the trip to the Land of Skyfire ended, another figure appeared in his heart.
Indelible, lingering.
No matter how his feelings towards Kong Rou change in the future, at least he is no longer a single-minded person now.
Even if you can refute it this time, you will never be able to refute another established fact.
On the Xuan Dao Continent, both male and female cultivators can choose the number of Taoist companions themselves and will not be subject to any compulsory restrictions.
There are also many practitioners who do not need Taoist companions.
Recently, most of the Qingqingfeng lineage in Wu Zong are lonely people.
A small number of extreme ones are those who abandon their families and children, regardless of whether they are male or female cultivators.
Generally speaking, it mainly depends on the subjective willingness of all parties.
He didn't feel much.
As for Lin Bian'er's attitude towards this, he was not sure yet.
Sensitive topics were most afraid of being brought up unpreparedly, so now he could only pretend that nothing happened.
He laughed it off and picked up some food to eat.
Kongrou only had eyes for the good-looking braised pork, so she immersed herself in eating it, completely unaware of the change in the atmosphere at this time.
He Gu wanted to continue pretending, but Junior Sister didn't move her food and just stared at the bowl, as if she was still patiently waiting for his response.
He had no choice but to change the subject abruptly.
He raised his head, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said with a fake smile: "I just remembered an interesting story. It's fun to tell it. Do you want to listen to it?"
He said it was you, but he looked at Kongrou with more anxiety.
When she heard that she was going to tell an interesting story, Kong Rou hurriedly finished the next bite, her face looking forward to it.
Nodding heavily: "Okay, Xiaorou wants to hear a story."
He Gu is becoming more and more fond of this very "sensible" little girl.
Lin Bian'er glanced at his senior brother in a different way and secretly pouted at the side.
Pretending not to notice, He Gu acted as a storyteller and vividly told the stories he had made up on the spur of the moment.
"It is said that in the far west and far east, there is a small country called Liangzheng Kingdom.
People living in small countries behave very strangely.
Whenever something happens, people like to divide themselves into two opposing factions. They will write and criticize each other and argue about the outcome before the answer is settled.
The throne of the Liangzheng Kingdom is hereditary.
Unfortunately, the current ruler of the country was born weak and suffered from a strange yang-free disease. He has been unable to bear children and is faced with the distressing dilemma of old age and no heirs.
One day, I received powerful enlightenment from a practitioner who traveled here, and when I was about to die, I finally got my wish and gave birth to a son.
On the day his youngest son was born, the old king was very happy. For this reason, he gave a general amnesty to the whole country and held a banquet for the whole country.
Because these old kings were sincere and virtuous in seeking heirs and treated their people well, after this was announced to the world, all the people were happy and congratulated one after another.
From then on, the old king cherished his hard-won only son very much, holding it in his hands for fear of falling, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting.
Thanks to the good governance of the old monarch, his youngest son has also become the favorite of the whole country..."
Kongrou was immediately immersed in the story.
As long as it was told by her brother He, she would find it very interesting.
Because the story told by her senior brother had never been heard before, and it was very attractive to her at the beginning, Lin Bian'er gradually deviated from her original thoughts and became fascinated by it.
The two girls were all looking forward to it and listening attentively.
Seeing that it was effective, He Gu, who was secretly happy, worked harder to tell the story vividly.
His tone suddenly changed: "But there are unforeseen circumstances.
When the young prince was nine years old, his body suddenly became feverish and he became seriously ill after being bedridden.
All the doctors in the small country came to see him, but they were all helpless and saw that the young king was about to die young.
The old ruler was so anxious that he did not think about food and drink all day long. He was so worried about this matter that he looked much older in just a few days.
Just when he was close to despair, the traveling cultivator returned for some reason and passed through the Kingdom of Two Realms again.
After receiving this news, all the people followed the old king and knelt down at the place where he passed to pray for enlightenment from the great power.
Finally, good results will be achieved and a cure will be obtained."
At this point, He Gu deliberately switched his tone and imitated the tone of voice that he had in his impression of the immortal and Taoist old man.
"The great power said leisurely: 'In the land of Liangzheng Kingdom, which is as far south as north, there is a turtle-shaped monster that is both male and female.
This beast is extremely mysterious. Male and female are of the same body, and their gender changes from time to time.
All he needs to do is take the blood from his mother's life and give it to the young king, and he will be cured.
If the blood of Gongshi, which is extremely yang, is taken by mistake, the young prince will worsen the heat yang syndrome in his body and die immediately.’
He also said: "There is a way to tell whether it is a male or a female. After taking the blood, you can find an old horse that has sweated blood to test the medicine."
If it's male blood, the old horse will regain its luster after a few breaths and return to the state of mind when it was strong; if it's female blood, the old horse will immediately die and bleed from its seven orifices until it dies.'"
The story seemed wonderful, and both Kong Rou and Lin Qi'er were completely immersed in it.
He Gu took back his old-timer tone and continued.
"After the great master said this, he flew away happily, and the old king hurriedly ordered to find this turtle beast.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seven days later, the strange turtle beast was found as expected. It was cleverly designed by a general who was good at fighting and was introduced into an iron cage and escorted to the capital.
The people of Liangzheng Kingdom saw this strange beast for the first time, which immediately aroused controversy throughout the country.
Before the results were obtained according to the powerful methods, according to customs, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the common people were quickly divided into two opposing factions.
One side saw that the beast's aura was majestic and seemed to have a masculine charm, so he decided that he looked like a male.
One side saw that the beast had a docile temperament and a soft mood in its pupils, and insisted that it looked like a mother.
The two parties couldn't argue, and everyone was passionate. No one was convinced by the other, and everyone looked like a nail.
In the main hall of the palace, the old king was restlessly pacing back and forth, anxiously waiting for the results of the test to come out.
The civil and military officials stood in two groups below, condolences to each other, and almost started fighting over disagreements.
They both stubbornly believed that what the other party said was wrong.
After a while, an out of breath old eunuch stumbled into the hall with the results of the test.
The sharp-eyed minister noticed it immediately, straightened his neck and asked loudly: "Who was wrong in the end?"
The old eunuch crossed the threshold, took a deep breath, and then loudly announced the result three times..."
At this point, He Gu deliberately stopped and asked the two girls with a smile: "Do you think this is the result?"
Kong Rou was confused after hearing this.
I just thought it was wonderful and didn't know anything else. I kept shaking my head.
Lin Bian'er, who already found this story very interesting and was looking forward to the eunuch's next words but was interrupted, suddenly became anxious and urged: "Stop being so long-winded, just tell me quickly."
He Gu felt funny in his heart and found the fun of teasing his junior sister again.
Afraid of irritating him, he couldn't hold on for too long, so he continued: "The eunuch shouted to the person who asked the question, and said three times..."
As he spoke, he perfectly imitated the eunuch's duck-like voice, which looked quite funny.
You faced his junior sister and nervously revealed the answer in his heart: "It's Mr. Xiang who is wrong! It's Mr. Xiang who is wrong..."
My husband is wrong!"
Sir...
Lin Bian'er looked deeply startled.
Then a pair of extremely beautiful pear dimples gradually appeared on both sides of the delicate cheeks.
A sweet smile, with two beautiful corners of her mouth curled up.
Slightly raising his eyes to look at He Gu, his light-ink eyes revealed endless strands of infatuated tenderness.
My whole heart is devoted to you, and my whole heart is devoted to my love.
The beauty looked at him lovingly, and He Gu was stunned at this moment.
As the two looked at each other, the atmosphere at the dinner table became warm.
Kong Rou on the side buried her head and thought hard, but in the end she still couldn't figure it out.
The little girl didn't notice the change in the atmosphere, so she raised her head and asked, "Is the young prince saved?"
The atmosphere suddenly broke, Lin Qi'er's face suddenly became embarrassed, and she retracted her eyes in panic.
He Gu, who came back to his senses, was filled with shame.
But he was happy because it was a blessing in disguise that his relationship with his junior sister had taken a further step forward.
I casually made up a positive ending to the story.
"Yes, if it's a male, then it's a female. The young prince finally recovered after taking the turtle blood.
A few years later, the old king passed away, and the young king became the new king, and he became even more considerate of the people."
The little girl really liked the ending and clapped her hands in joy.
Afterwards, I felt unsatisfied and wanted to hear the next story, so I was busy begging for help to tell another story.
There is no way the story is that easy to compile. He Gu was so tired that he almost collapsed after being able to barely finish this one.
I didn't even have time to drink a sip of tea afterwards, how could I make up a second one now?
Fortunately, he had made up a lot of them and told them to Lin Qi'er before. Kong Rou definitely didn't know about these personal original stories, so he took out one or two and told them to Kong Rou alone.
Kong Rou picked up the rice bowl this time, and while eating the braised pork, she was distracted and listened to the story told by He Gu.
His big eyes were full of satisfaction, as if the food tasted even better this way.
Lin Bian'er's face was calm.
She moved her chopsticks gently with her slender hands and put the braised pork in the bowl into the senior brother's bowl. Then she chewed slowly and ate the fish meat that the senior brother had put in before.
He didn't seem to care about the exclusive communication between his senior brother and Kong Rou.
As he told the next story, He Gu Bu forgot to pay attention to the reaction of the junior sister on the other side.
Seeing these unconscious traces secretly in his eyes, he ate the braised pork brought by his junior sister and told the story more seriously.
