C16 Old people and children

After an unknown amount of time, an intense pain came from all over his body, causing Gu Hao to slowly wake up from his dreams.

What entered his line of vision was a row of dark green bamboo.

This made Gu Hao suspicious, and he turned his head with difficulty, only to realize that he was lying in a bamboo house made of dark green bamboo.

The furnishings of the bamboo house were simple and crude. Even the tables and chairs were made of bamboo. Even the tea set on the bamboo table seemed to be made from bamboo.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Gu Hao wanted to stand up, but when he moved his body, he felt an intense pain that made him cry out.

Da da, da da!

Gu Hao's voice seemed to have alarmed the people outside the door. Hurried footsteps came out, following that, a small head peeked out from outside the bamboo door, using his rolling eyes to size up Gu Hao who was on the bed.

"You're awake?"

The boy seemed to be afraid, and after looking at the door for a long time, he slowly walked in and asked Gu Hao.

"Yes." Who are you? "Where is this place?"

When Gu Hao opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was extremely hoarse as he asked the little boy this question.

"My name is Zhu Qing, this is the Black Bamboo Forest. "Where did you come from?"

The little boy fanned his big eyes and asked Gu Hao seriously.

Gu Hao was amused by the boy's expression. He did not expect to feel pain from his cracked lips the moment he opened his mouth.

Zhu Qing seemed to be able to see the pain in Gu Hao's heart. He asked nervously, "Are you alright? Grandfather said that you are heavily injured and must take care of your recovery. "Oh yeah, you just woke up. Do you want some water?"

With that, Zhu Qing did not wait for Gu Hao's reply and jogged over to the side of the bamboo table. He poured a cup of water and placed it in front of Gu Hao: "Here, drink some water."

Gu Hao grinned and nodded. He wanted to extend his hand to receive it, but he realized that he could not bring himself to do so.

Seeing this, Zhu Qing took a step forward, leaned towards Gu Hao, and slowly placed the bamboo cup next to Gu Hao's lips. He gently poured out a little water, and waited for Gu Hao to swallow it down, then poured some more.

Just like this, Gu Hao slowly finished drinking his bamboo cup of water, took a deep breath and felt much better, then said to Zhu Qing: "Thank you."

Zhu Qing happily revealed two small canines, laughed brilliantly and said: "You're welcome. Grandfather said that since you are a patient, you should be taken care of. "

Gu Hao nodded, then asked him: "Where's your grandfather?"

Before he finished speaking, a slightly hunchbacked old man in a flowery robe walked in, with his hands clasped behind his back, he looked at Gu Hao and said: "You're awake?"

"Yes." Gu Hao nodded and replied softly. Did you save me? Thank you for saving my life. "

The old man waved his hand, sat down beside Gu Hao and said: "It's nothing much, you're welcome."

"Oh, yes. Elder, why am I here? When you found me, did you see my parents? " Gu Hao asked.

Actually, when Gu Hao woke up and saw Zhu Qing, he already knew that he had escaped from the Wu's imperial capital. As for how he escaped, he was not really concerned. He was more concerned about his parents.

In Gu Hao's heart, even until now, he still fantasized about his parents being alive, and still held onto a trace of hope.

"So those two are actually your parents?" "Yes." The old man nodded and replied. "Don't worry, I placed them in another room."

Hearing that, Gu Hao heaved a sigh of relief, and asked: "Are they alright? Is the injury severe? "

The old man was stunned, he looked at Gu Hao for a long time but did not reply.

At this moment, the old man realized that this young man did not know that his parents had passed away.

Therefore, the old man was hesitating whether or not he should tell Gu Hao or not.

As for Gu Hao, who had just let out a breath of relief, he raised it again the instant the old man fell silent. It was only at this time that Gu Hao suddenly remembered everything that had happened atop the walls of the Wu's imperial capital.

"What about them? Ah? Elder, tell me, are they alright? No, I have to go see them. If my mother can't see me, she'll be worried. "Yes, I want to see them!"

Gu Hao finally started to get a little excited. He wanted to stand up and immediately go see his parents. Therefore, Gu Hao endured the pain and struggled to sit up. However, it was as if his body was not under his control at all. The only thing he could do was to constantly shake his body, causing waves of even more intense pain.

The old man was startled awake by Gu Hao's excitement, he immediately held onto Gu Hao's body and comforted him softly: "It's fine, child, don't be agitated. They're fine, safe and sound, nothing's wrong!"

However, how could Gu Hao, who had thought of everything, believe the words of the old man?

"NO!" My father died. He blocked a palm strike for me. He died. Yes, dead, mother is dead too. Mother said that she wants the whole family to be reunited forever, and then, and then … "

Tears welled out of Gu Hao's eyes once again, and he choked with sobs, unable to continue.

The old man pressed down on Gu Hao's body while holding onto Gu Hao's hand and consoling him: "Child, you cannot revive. "Don't harm yourself again because of this."

"Big brother." It was also at this time that Xiao Zhuqing extended her two small hands and grabbed onto Gu Hao's left hand.

Gu Hao did not answer and slowly closed his eyes, allowing the tears to flow freely from the corners of his eyes.

After a long, long time.

Only then did Gu Hao slowly open his eyes, with red eyes, he looked at Zhu Qing and then at the old man, and spoke with a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, old man."

The old man still wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but he didn't know what to say. He only patted Gu Hao's chest lightly and said: "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay."

"Old man, can I ask you for a favor?" Gu Hao opened his mouth again and asked the old man.

The old man paused, stared at Gu Hao and said: "You, want to take a look?"

Gu Hao nodded.

The old man thought for a moment, then said, "If you want to see it, that's fine too. It was just that … The wounds on your body are still very serious. Even if Zhu Qing and I were to support you, I'm afraid that we would still tear the wounds apart. "

"It's fine, I can hold it in." Gu Hao replied seriously.

The old man stared intently at Gu Hao for a long while. Finally, he sighed and said: "Fine. Come to Zhu Qing, and help grandpa up. "

"Yes."

Zhu Qing obediently nodded, and using strength together with his grandfather, gently helped Gu Hao up.

However, as Gu Hao laid on the ground, he still felt waves of pain. After being helped to his feet, he felt an intense pain all over his body.

This sort of pain pierced the heart, as if even their souls were being torn apart. It was so painful that Gu Hao gritted his teeth and golden stars appeared in his eyes.

"Can you hold on?" The old man saw through Gu Hao's pain and asked softly.

Gu Hao took a deep breath in and out before nodding his head, indicating the old man to continue. He did not speak because the intense pain had made him unable to speak a single word.

The old man seemed to have sensed Gu Hao's determination and didn't speak anymore. Instead, he cooperated with Zhu Qing and slowly brought Gu Hao to another bamboo house.

This bamboo house was much smaller than the room Gu Hao was in earlier. There were no decorations in the bamboo house. Instead, there were two bamboo beds set up in the middle of the room.

On the bamboo bed, Gu Feng, Han Meng, were all peacefully lying down.

At that moment, Gu Hao's heart suddenly calmed down, as though he had died.

"Old man, please put me between my parents." Gu Hao opened his mouth and asked the elderly.

The old man nodded and carried Gu Hao to the between the two bamboo beds. Then, he had Zhu Qing bring a bamboo chair over and placed him on top of it. Then, he left the room.

Gu Hao's body was powerless as he laid on the bamboo chair. He did not make a sound, and just quietly looked at his parents who were lying on the bamboo bed.

"Hao Er, tomorrow, Father will bring you to find the strongest Earth Origin Stage Ranker in our Sunset Town and have him take you as her disciple." In front of the thatched cottage, a middle-aged man with a face full of love spoke to a four or five-year-old boy beside him.

"Haha!" Sister Meng, did you see that? Hao Er has become a Sky Origin Stage Ranker! That's a peerless expert who can fly! Even His Majesty has to summon us two, Hao Er! Haha, Hao Er, you really brought honor to your father! "

"Lord? Oh my god! Sister Meng, did you hear that? Hao Er said that he had become a lord! "Heavens, that's an existence comparable to His Majesty!"

"Hao Er, although your father and I are not cultivators, we still know that building an Immortal Foundation is very dangerous with the Tribulation Hammer Body. You must be careful!"

"maple, we haven't seen each other in a long time. "From now on, we will never part again!"

… ….

Unknowingly, tears started to roll down from Gu Hao's eyes again.

"Sigh. It's all my fault for being careless, I never thought that the emperor of Wu would actually have such a magical equipment. "

Cha Chaer floated up in the air. He, who was still covered in white, appeared to be even weaker than before. It was as though a light blow could blow him away.

"I don't blame you, I don't blame you."

Gu Hao did not even look at Cha Chaer, and continued to look at his parents, and mumbled.

"Blame me. It's all my fault. Not only did I fail to protect them, I even caused their lives to be lost because of me. I let them down, I deserve to die. "

Tears rolling down, Gu Hao stared at his parents' corpses and said with a face as pale as death.

"Child, you have to brace yourself. The spirit of your parents in heaven would never want to see you like this. "

Cha Chaer advised. He really couldn't bear to see Gu Hao like this. Even during his miserable life in the prison, he had never seen Gu Hao like this. His face was ashen, and both of his eyes were lifeless. His aura was faintly discernible, as if he was a living corpse.

"Father, mother."

Gu Hao did not pay attention to Cha Chaer, but instead, lightly called out to him twice.

"Gu Hao!"

Cha Chaer was even more worried now. Even though he had only known Gu Hao for a few days, he clearly understood the importance of his parents in Gu Hao's heart. It was a pillar, and it was the conviction to survive.

But now, with the pillars crumbling and their faith gone, would Gu Hao still be able to persevere?

"My mother said that we haven't been together for a long time. She wanted us to be together forever. "Yes, mother wants us to be reunited. To be reunited, to be reunited."

Gu Hao muttered, as though he was talking, but more like he was talking to himself. At the end, he suddenly became excited. At this moment, he thought about Han Meng's last words before her death: reunite and never be separated.

And now, his parents had been reunited, but what about him? Instantly, Gu Hao thought of death. He was tired, he missed his parents, and wanted to reunite with them.

Slowly, Gu Hao closed his eyes, in that moment, his life force became dim, like a candle, shaking so hard that it could fade away.

"Gu Hao!"

Cha Chaer was shocked. He shouted angrily to wake Gu Hao up and said: "Do you think that your parents can rest in peace like this? Do you think that you are unworthy of your parents by acting like this? You want to live a light life without revenge. Can your parents forgive you even in the Underworld? Furthermore, your parents only lost their life force and their souls left their bodies. Who says they can't be revived? "

"Resurrection?"

Gu Hao instantly opened his eyes and looked at Cha Chaer. This was the first time he looked away from his parents ever since he entered the bamboo house.

"Right, revival. As far as I know, in the ancient world, there's a legend that there's a way to revive the dead. There's also a miraculous medicine that can turn the dead to pieces and help the dead to live. The first thing you did was to not think about reviving your parents, but you fell so low.
