. Gu Chen laughed happily and said: "From now on, I will be your boss." Haha... If you don't want to, you can raise it now, and then enter Death Valley to stay for an hour, and then continue to compete with me.
…”
"I want my brother to be the boss." Gu Zhou immediately raised his hand and cheered.
Zhang Yuan and Guan Qi glanced at each other. Neither of them had the courage to enter Death Valley, so they said in unison: "We are willing too!"
Seeing that the situation was decided, Sima Yan also raised his hand and said: "I am willing too...Boss Gu Chen.
Cheng Zhan glanced into Death Valley again, with some fear in his eyes. He looked back and said, "I am willing too!"
"Hahahaha..." Gu Chen laughed happily and said, "Tell the boss a few words to listen..."
"Boss..." Gu Zhou spoke first and walked to Gu Chen's side.
"elder……"
"elder……"
Zhang Yuan, Guan Qi, Sima Yan, and Cheng Zhan shouted one after another.
Gu Chen nodded and said: "Okay," "I am your boss and also your brother. The six of us should be good brothers who share blessings and share hardships throughout our lives!"
"Be good brothers who share blessings and share hardships for a lifetime..." the five people said in unison.
"Uncle Gu..." Gu Chen turned his gaze to Gu Chen, who had already arrived beside everyone, and said: "Please bear witness for us. Today I will form eight-year friendship with five good brothers."
Gu Chen looked at the six young men in front of him. "Time seemed to have crossed space and returned to the previous life. 500 years ago, when Gu Chen was still a boy of about ten years old." He, Gu Heng, Gu Lan... and others also
Just like the six teenagers in front of me, they "played together and made an oath together. However, with the destruction of the Gu family, the oaths they once made were silent in the vicissitudes of time and never appeared again."
In this life, Gu Chen has never experienced the mentality of a young man since his rebirth. He kept practicing, and thought he had changed the fate of the Gu family, but unexpectedly, in the end, the fate of the Gu family was not much different from that of the previous life.
The time has been delayed for more than thirty years...
The bloodshed and the killing all the way. Ever since Gu Chen was reborn when he was ten years old, his hands have been stained with blood. He has never been clean. Especially this time when the Gu family was destroyed, Gu Chen became angry and ruined the entire victory.
In the Imperial Court, tens of thousands of Tibetan monks were killed, and blood flowed like rivers...
For a long time, Gu Chen's heart no longer had the innocent and pure emotions of his childhood...
But today, "Looking at the six young men in front of him, Gu Chen seemed to have found the same state of mind as a boy in his previous life. Although he had sealed his cultivation and magic power, a trace of magic power was automatically flowing in his body.
, that is a kind of power that has nothing to do with his body or his magic power." Then, it appeared in his [body].
Although this ripple was extremely weak, it made Gu Chen's body, which had previously sealed his cultivation, become extremely sensitive. Gu Chen could clearly feel every movement for hundreds of miles around.
This is not Gu Chen's own power, but a natural force between heaven and earth!
"Is this... the Tao?" Gu Chen secretly whispered in his heart.
Looking at Gu Chen with a pleading look in his eyes, Gu Chen nodded.
Seeing Gu Chen nodding, Gu Chen said happily: "Okay, with Gu Chen vouching for us, we will become friends for eight worships, live and die together, and share blessings and hardships..."
"Okay..." the five people responded in unison. "Then they came to Gu Chen's side, lined up and knelt down on the ground.
"Heaven and earth serve as evidence, and the sun and moon serve as mirrors. Today, uncle Gu, testify. Zhang Yuan and I, Guan Qi,
Cheng Zhan, Gu Zhou, and Sima Yan, five brothers, became close friends. They shared blessings and hardships. They did not seek to be born in the same year and month on the same day, but they wished to die in the same year, month and day. Gu Chen's words were echoed by the voices of the five people.
The sound was heard outside Death Valley, and under the witness of Gu Chen, they formed the friendship of Eight Burials.
At this moment, Gu Chen has no idea, no way to guess, and is at a loss. All he can do is watch from the sidelines, watching the flowers bloom and fall. Year after year, these six
Young man, the changes in growth...,
…,
The six people became close friends. Because Gu Chen was there, they each went home. Gu Chen and Gu Zhou took Gu Chen to their home. Gu Dad and Gu Mom warmly entertained Gu Chen. When they learned that Gu Chen
I actually went to Death Valley and slept in the valley. I was so angry that I was extremely grateful to Gu Chen!
After leaving Gu Chen's home, Gu Chen built a small wooden house on the hillside near Death Valley and lived in Gujia Village. Every day he watched the villagers of Gujia Village working at sunrise and resting at sunset. Although the life was hard,
, but with a bright smile on their faces.
Although Gu Chen has power that the villagers cannot imagine, Gu Chen does not have the joy that the villagers get in their ordinary life...
Day after day, Gu Chen spent "day after day" in Gujia Village, and seemed to be infected by the villagers. Gu Chen's mood became more and more peaceful. He saw a strange fact. Although the villagers did not know how high the sky was,
, ignorantly, spending ordinary day after day just to live." However, Tao follows them all the time.
Gu Chen can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, teleport into the void, and travel millions of miles in a day. His vision is so vast that ordinary people cannot imagine it. However, because of this, "Tao" seems to deliberately close the door on him, seemingly "
Tao is everywhere, and laws are everywhere, but Gu Chen cannot touch the existence of Tao and cannot feel the existence of laws...
This strange fact puzzled Gu Chen, so he had to remember this question in his mind and try to understand it every once in a while.
time flies.
The Qinglong Village bandits who come to collect tribute every year come again and again...
Year after year passed, and in the blink of an eye, Gu Chen had lived in Gujia Village for the first five years.
In the past three years, the harvest in Gujia Village was good, except for the annual tribute given to Qinglong Village."
The remaining grain is enough to feed the villagers for a year, so they can have enough food and clothing.
However, the weather has not been very good in the past two years. There was a severe drought last year and a flood this year. The harvest in Gujia Village dropped sharply, but the tribute collected by Qinglong Village every year "
But it's not much at all.
The harvest is not good and the tribute cannot be paid. The head of Qinglong Village has spoken. Villages that cannot pay tribute should hand over women aged 15 to 25. One woman is worth 100 kilograms of grain. The woman handed in will be replaced three years later.
to return to the village.
The terrain of Gujia Village is higher. Affected by floods, it is smaller than other villages and has more food. This year, it is said that some villages "handed over seven or eight women to Qinglong Village, and some villages even handed over more than ten women."
There were only two women in Gujia Village.
Two families whose daughters were robbed by Qinglong Village, both husband and wife hanged themselves to death that night.
Gu Chen saw the changes in Gujia Village in the past five years. Although he was angry in his heart, he did not take action. Within the two to three hundred thousand miles radius of the Northern Wasteland mortal area, there are countless places like Qinglong Village.
, places like Gujiacun that are so oppressed are also hard to count.
Gu Chen's eyes are not narrowed down to a Gujia Village. He knows that if he wants to change this situation and eradicate a Qinglong Village, it will not help. If the Qinglong Village is gone, there will still be a Black Dragon Village and a White Dragon Village...
Even if Gu Chen spends hundreds of years and eradicates all the bandits in the entire mortal kingdom, once Gu Chen leaves, more villages will pop up. Maybe "Gu Chen can't eradicate them at all."
"Eradicate that side again, and after a few years, there will be another one here. Even if Gu Chen has great magical powers and "lives for a thousand years" and keeps eradicating it, after a thousand years, Gu Chen will die and disappear, but the robbers in this world will still be there.
Like a thousand years ago...
Gu Chen thought about changing all this, but he was still confused and didn't know how to change it. Going directly to Qinglong Village was definitely not a method of force!
When Gu Chen came to Gujia Village, he not only wanted to experience the joy of the villagers, but also the anger and sadness...
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.
In the sixth year, a group of officers and soldiers came to Gujia Village and claimed to encircle and suppress the bandits. They lived in Gujia Village for half a month, ate a lot of food in Gujia Village, and took away a lot before leaving. However, the bandits did not suppress them.
At the end of the new year, the bandits from Qinglong Village came again to collect this year's tribute.
There are not many bandits in Qinglong Village, only about thirty people, but they bring hundreds of strong horses. Except for riding, the rest of the horses are used for transporting grain.
There are more than 200 households in Gujia Village, with a population of about 1,000, including more than 600 old, young, rich, and nearly 400 men aged 15 to 45.
A village with nearly 400 combatants and nearly a thousand villagers trembled in fear in front of more than 30 bandits!
The robbers all held shining sabers in their hands, which were four feet long. More than thirty sabers were swinging together, making people's eyes blurred and fear in their hearts.
This year's harvest in Gujia Village is much better than last year's flood, and there were enough tributes to hand in."
However, they were devoured by a group of officers and soldiers for half a month and took away a lot of food. This year's food supply has reached the lowest level in history.
The tributes handed in were actually less than 2,000 kilograms, and they needed to be handed over to Qinglong Village for more than 2,000 kilograms.
Long live women.
"This...this...and this..." The third master of Qinglongji held a shining saber and pointed at the girls in the crowd one by one.
Suddenly, the third master's eyes lit up. He stepped forward quickly, pointed the saber in his hand, and hit a beautiful girl next to a handsome young man.
This handsome young man was none other than Zhang Yuan, one of the six young men Gu Chen met back then. Now six years later, Zhang Yuan has grown into a sixteen-year-old handsome young man.
The beautiful girl next to her is Zhang Yuan's sister Zhang Xiao. She is two years younger than Zhang Yuan and is only fourteen years old, but she is already a stunning beauty.
"Sir, she is not yet fifteen years old." Zhang Yuan's father rushed out immediately and knelt in front of the third master.
"Go away!" The third master glanced sideways, kicked Zhang Yuan's father to the ground, and shouted: "I didn't expect there is a stunning beauty here, haha, I want her."
Several young men stopped in front of Zhang Xiao at the same time. It was Gu Chen, Gu Zhou, Cheng Zhan, Sima Yan, and Zhang Yuan. Four words rang out in their ears at the same time: "The rebels will survive!" @
