Just as Lu Ming was enjoying the warmth from the overflowing fragrance and sleeping soundly, a burst of ice-cold water was poured over his head, waking him up from his beautiful spring dream.
Lu Ming opened his eyes in panic, wiped the water stains off his face, and subconsciously asked.
The moment he opened his eyes, the bright and beautiful sunlight shined upon him, causing him to be unable to open his eyes. Lu Ming squinted his eyes and looked towards the door.
He saw Gu Huo wearing his clothes, standing in front of the bed, with water droplets still dripping from the wooden bucket in his hand. His originally confused mind instantly came to life. After his memory connected, Lu Ming smiled at Gu Huo in embarrassment.
When Lu Ming came here, he was wearing the academy's uniform, the specially-made clothes. The clothes that Lu Ming wore that fit him perfectly were a little tight on Gu Huo.
"What are you looking at? Isn't it just borrowing your clothes?"
He didn't know why, but the Gu Huo right now no longer had the elegant temperament that it had at the very beginning of their meeting, and had a romantic aura similar to a young lady's. Although they were both of the same kind of faces, at the start, it would always give Lu Ming the feeling of facing an elder.
Lu Ming laughed awkwardly, and intentionally or unintentionally, he pulled on the bed sheet a few times, wanting to hide something. The young man, on the other hand, was full of vigor and vigor. His normal reaction when he woke up in the morning was, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
The Gu Huo unconsciously curled his lips, and threw the large storage ring on Lu Ming's clothes to him. "Here, your things."
Lu Ming hurriedly took over the storage ring, found his own storage ring and took out his spare clothes. Lu Ming held onto his clothes, and awkwardly smiled at Gu Huo, who was staring at him intently.
Gu Huo retracted his gaze, and left while muttering to himself.
Lu Ming hurriedly put on his clothes and left the thatched hut.
Just as he walked into the courtyard, he saw Gu Huo bending over to level the ground, repairing the traces of yesterday's battle. Lu Ming was startled, and asked doubtfully:
"Why don't you use your spiritual energy? Why do you have to do it yourself?"
The power behind Gu Huo's actions yesterday had long been deeply imprinted in Lu Ming's mind. Therefore, Lu Ming was filled with suspicions towards Gu Huo's actions.
Gu Huo put down his hoe, smiled at Lu Ming, with a bitter smile:
"I've been alone here for so long. If I don't find something to do, it will drive me crazy."
Lu Ming was puzzled, and recalled how he bent down to fetch water when he first met the Gu Huo. He smiled and took the hoe from Gu Huo's hands. He bent down and smoothed out the ground, "Then I'll help you.
Gu Huo sensed the aura Lu Ming brought when he walked past his, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. With a blank look in his eyes, he muttered: "Do you want to hear a story?"
"Sure, I'm listening."
Just like this, Lu Ming continued to work, and the Gu Huo continued to tell his story. Gu Huo talked about the joy he had when he had his first spiritual wisdom, about his courage when he accompanied Fang Qing in battle, about his love for the little child, and about how he was about to be sealed by Fang Qing.
"Then now that you have the strength to break the seal, why don't you go out?"
Gu Huo sat on top of the peach tree, plucked a peach and put it under his nose: "I'm used to it. Initially, I wanted to leave but I couldn't. But as time went by, I fell in love with someone like myself. Now, I can go out but I don't want to go out. "
She looked at Lu Ming with a forced smile, "It's already been a thousand years, there's no one left in the past. What am I going out to do now?"
Lu Ming put down the hoe and wiped off his sweat. He had spent the entire morning cleaning up the empty land, even with his stamina, he still felt that it was hard to endure. He looked at Gu Huo and revealed his usual bashful smile.
"Then I'll accompany you out." It's so exciting outside. Isn't it better here? "
Gu Huo looked at the smiling Lu Ming, his heart suddenly rippled, and even his heart started beating faster. She hurriedly jumped down from the tree and ran towards the thatched cottage. "I'll go cook lunch for you."
"How do you feel?"
Gu Huo leaned his face against the table and stared at Lu Ming. Lu Ming chewed on the vegetables in his mouth, nodded his head in satisfaction, and raised his thumb:
"Amazing, much more delicious than what I've cooked."
Indeed, there wasn't even any seasoning. To be able to cause the vegetables to reach such a level was already quite good.
Gu Huo cheered happily. Then, as if she had thought of something, she said to Lu Ming:
"Oh yeah, I went to look at Fang Qing's seal just now. The fight between Gui Che and I has activated his power. Now that my power has not recovered, I can't let you leave. "
"What!?"
Gu Huo acted like a little girl who had done something wrong as she explained with a wave of her hand: "Don't worry, it's just temporary. We'll send you out once the seal is calm or my strength is restored."
Lu Ming thought that he would never be able to get out, he never thought that it would only be temporary. He casually explained to Gu Huo and then began to eat without a care in the world. The Gu Huo had long reached the Fasting Realm, but Lu Ming still needed the energy of food.
Gu Huo rested his chin on his hand and looked at Lu Ming quietly, his eyes brimming with sweetness. In the past when she was still alive, she had seen mortal couples often live like this. It was dull and enviable, but now she could also live like this!
She looked at Lu Ming, who seemed like he wanted to say something, but hesitated. After repeating it a few times, she finally mustered up her courage and muttered to Lu Ming:
"Can you help me give birth to a child?"
