They are really not NPCs, please stop it, lady.

But at this moment, seeing hope right before her eyes, she still had to wait for a long time, which made it difficult for her to continue to endure.

After all, compared to Gu Nian's method, Gong Lianxin's own method is obviously faster and more convenient.

She only needed to raise her sword and kill the young man in front of her, and her goal would be achieved.

Although this method, according to Gu Nian, is basically impossible to succeed, she still wants to give it a try.

But... I really can't do it!

Gong Lianxin knew very well that Gu Nian was really doing this for her own good, and was not just stalling for time and waiting for Su Qingge to rescue her.

But...this is too slow!

Gong Lianxin felt even more conflicted.

Gu Nian could understand this, but he had no better solution.

Just as Gu Nian said.

How could it be so easy to resolve Gong Lianxin's ruthless behavior over the years?

I can only hope that Gong Lianxin will be more patient and not drive herself crazy.

After resting for a while, Gu Nian planned to leave.

however.

However, this family warmly invited Gu Nian and his group to rest for a while longer.

"My kid will be home soon anyway. When he comes back, I'll have him harness up to the car and take you two into town."

The old man took Gu Nian's hand and said enthusiastically,

"It's still quite a distance from here to the city. If you two just walk like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the city by night."

"It will be dangerous then."

however.

Gu Nian still politely declined the other party's invitation.

Now that my goal has been achieved, there is no need to stay here and cause trouble for others.

After the two of them had walked for a long time, Gong Lianxin asked,

“Why do they want to keep us?”

"The two of us being here with them clearly doesn't bring them any benefit, and they don't even know our identities. On the contrary, we're wasting their time."

"This is unreasonable."

"That's what we call kindness."

Gu Nian smiled and said,

"Just like when I saved Daqian, according to Aunt Gong, I actually didn't know what benefits I could get at the beginning."

"But I still took action. This is kindness."

"I've said it before, not everything can be measured by benefits and interests. At least when it comes to kindness, few people act out of self-interest."

He paused for a moment, and nodded to his heart.

"You have to feel it with your heart. If you only think about the reasons, then Aunt Gong will never understand what true love is."

Why is this thing so troublesome!

Gong Lianxin had a slight headache.

Not only is it profound and abstract, it also requires what is called careful feeling.

How to do this?

She has practiced the ruthless way for so long that she has long been accustomed to measuring things with interests and thinking about everything with her brain.

I don't understand what it means to feel with my heart.

This really puts her in a difficult position!

At this moment.

Gu Nian's footsteps suddenly stopped, and then he frowned.

The next moment, without having time to talk to Gong Lianxin, Gu Nian turned around and walked back.

See this.

Gong Lianxin frowned slightly, somewhat confused about Gu Nian's choice.

She understood why Gu Nian went back.

In her perception, she clearly felt that in the village where the two of them had visited before, several people from the demonic path had already gone there.

now.

The entire village was gathered together by those demons, and it was obvious that they were going to perform a blood sacrifice.

The house that Gu Nian and his companions had visited earlier was among them.

However, Gong Lianxin did not understand why Gu Nian had to go back to save people.

There is no benefit at all.

Is it also out of so-called kindness?

By the way, he said, you have to feel it with your heart...

Listening to the voice of another Gong Lianxin coming from the depths of her consciousness, Palace Master Gong Lianxin sighed slightly.

I really don’t know how to feel it with my heart.

But...whatever, since Gu Nian has gone back, then I should naturally go back and take a look.

I just looked at Gu Nian to prevent his breath from being captured by Su Qingge.

Yes, that’s right, it’s not because I’m worried about her!

When Gu Nian and Gong Lianxin arrived there.

The two men saw that the old man they had visited before was holding a child, lying on the ground, protecting the child with his body.

On the other side, the demon was about to chop the old man with the knife in his hand.

"You old bastard, I just want this child, what does it have to do with you?"

"You actually used your life to exchange for this little guy's life. Are you tired of living?"

See this.

Gu Nian frowned slightly, and without explaining, he flicked his fingers and released several sword energies, killing all the demons.

Seeing that the villagers all looked confused and surprised, Gu Nian did not come forward, but just looked at Gong Lianxin beside him.

"Aunt Gong, see, this is the purest emotion."

"For the sake of the other person, even if it means dying, it's worth it... Aunt Gong, can you understand this kind of feeling?"

Listening to Gu Nian's words, Gong Lianxin fell into silence.

Although her heart was still a little confused, she was indeed more touched.

At this moment.

She listened to Gu Nian continue to say,

"Think about it, if someone wants to kill me, and that person is more powerful than you, what would you do?"

Hear this.

Gong Lianxin's delicate body stiffened, and she vaguely understood what Gu Nian meant.

"Did Aunt Gong gain anything today?"

Following Gong Lianxin back to Fengqi Palace, Gu Nian asked with a smile.

But Gong Lianxin just shook her head.

To be honest, she did gain something, but she was too confused at the moment to think of much.

Should he continue to act according to his previous plan, or listen to Gu Nian and follow his arrangements?

She really couldn't make a decision.

She really wanted Gu Nian to help her come up with some ideas. She didn't believe that Gu Nian couldn't see her concerns.

Although this young man looked kind and innocent, Gong Lianxin knew that Gu Nian was actually very smart. In fact, he was as smart as Su Qingge.

He is so clear about his own thoughts.

However, precisely because of this, Gu Nian did not comment on this matter, but just stayed with Gong Lianxin and tried his best to help her.

But this concerns your life and death. Can you really be so open-minded?

Or do you trust me that much?

Gong Lianxin didn't quite understand.

"After dinner, Aunt Gong should go to bed early. We have somewhere to go tomorrow."

After bringing the last dish to the table, Gu Nian said with a smile.

Gu Nian has already made all the arrangements for the future for Gong Lianxin.

Although Gu Nian couldn't guarantee that he could really make Gong Lianxin understand what love is and awaken the feelings that have been sealed for so many years... after all, this matter still depends more on Gong Lianxin herself.

But Gu Nian can guarantee that he will do his best to help his mother-in-law.

"Um…"

Gong Lianxin nodded absentmindedly, but then her expression suddenly relaxed.

How can you remain indifferent to such a good opportunity?

It's obvious that you tried to take advantage of me several times when we were at home, so why are you backing off now?

Qingge is not here, so why don’t you go up!

The voice of her mother-in-law Gong Lianxin rang in her heart, and immediately reminded Palace Master Gong Lianxin of this matter.

yes…

Rather than pondering these troublesome problems here alone, it would be better to take advantage of the young man.

After all, she has fallen in love with the young man, and she no longer hides this fact. Isn't this an opportunity to fulfill her wish?

When she was at home, it was because she had never expressed her feelings for Gu Nian, and also because of Su Qingge's existence.

In short.

Although she had always wanted to attack Gu Nian, she had never succeeded.

But now that I have this opportunity, I naturally can't let it go.

Even if I can't be with Gu Nian in one go, I can at least fulfill my long-cherished wish, right?

then.

Gong Lianxin went straight to Gu Nian, stretched out her jade hand, and held Gu Nian in her arms, holding her in her arms.

"Cough cough..."

Gu Nian was caught off guard and choked, almost vomiting what was in his mouth.

After coughing a few times, Gu Nian looked at Gong Lianxin in a daze.

"Aunt Gong, what are you doing?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

Gong Lianxin said very confidently,

"I need to build a good relationship with you first, so that I can develop more feelings for you, so that the effect of killing you will be better."

Gu Nian: ???

Your explanation and reason... are really refreshing.

But don't think I don't know what you're going to do to me!
