Chapter 768: Spear to the Sky
"You're not going out?"
Faced with Morax's sudden question, Gu Shen remained silent.
After a long time, Gu Shen shook his head, poured another glass of wine for Morax, and then picked up the wine jug and drank it in big gulps.
"I still want to go out, but I am worried about you guys. With my strength, it's just . It's not difficult."
"I didn't have time when I was young, but now I have the opportunity, but I can't let go of you bastards who are still in your hometown."
"Besides, if I overestimate myself, I might even die outside and there won't even be anyone to collect my body. I might be eaten by some beast that pops out from nowhere."
Gu Shen smiled: "That's too extravagant. I don't want to have such an ending."
"The Demon War is not over yet, and I may not be able to survive until it ends."
Gu Shen suddenly sat down opposite Morax and said, "Boss, what do you think of the proposal I told you about before?"
"Find someone while you're still young. Don't end up like me, old and injured before my time. When the time comes, you won't even have someone to help you cook."
Morax said calmly, "You speak as if no one cooks for you."
Gu Shen scratched his head and said, "That's not what I meant. I meant that you should really find a partner while you are still young, Boss."
"The wear and tear has lasted for a long time on my body, and the impact it has brought is huge. Even if my family is your dependents, who knows what it will be like in a few years."
"I'm worried that after a thousand years, my family will completely disappear into history, and there will be no relatives to pour you wine, Boss."
"Although this opinion may sound unreliable, it is really my own idea. The life span of a demon god is very long."
Gu Shen said in a deep voice: "Even Lao Fu and the others will eventually disappear like us. How sad it would be if there was no one in this world who knew you well."
"Boss, I don't want you to become a real loner."
Morax looked at Gu Shen steadily, then took another sip of wine.
"How much did you charge?"
Gu Shen was stunned: "What are you collecting? What money?"
Morax glanced at the bushes not far away and said, "I'm telling you, how much did you get?"
Then, Morax put down his wine glass, and the shadow of a dragon soaring in the sea flashed behind him.
"to be honest."
The threat of force was quite effective, and perhaps in front of his hard-working and meritorious family members, Morax was too lazy to pretend.
…
Gu Shen hesitated for a moment, then extended a finger.
"One, a secret book on the fundamental mysteries of the devil."
Morax sighed and nodded to his wine glass. Gu Shen ran over very servilely and took out a pot of new wine and poured it for him.
"She's so generous."
"Her generosity means that she likes you, Boss!"
Gu Shen said in a tone of deep sorrow: "Sister Gui Zhong is very good. She is beautiful, kind, and smart. There is nothing wrong with her except that her fighting ability is a little low. She is a perfect match for you!"
"When they first met you, they gave you a token of the contract, and later they worked closely with us like a family. It was love at first sight and love that grew over time. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
"Sister Guizhong is willing to give me the fundamental secret as a reward. This is proof that she values you very much. This shows how much she loves you!"
"To put it simply, I can't wait to announce to the world tomorrow that you two are together!"
"The woman is so proactive. It's a bit too much for you to be so reserved. Sister Guizhong, don't you have any dignity?"
I (beep——)!
Gu Sanqiu understood and was greatly shocked.
You are just a mortal leader or a military commander, but you are actually the head of a matchmaker? !
Morax glanced at Gu Shen and said, "You are just greedy for that magic secret book."
"Bullshit! Am I that kind of person?"
Gu Shen said righteously: "Even if there is no Demonic Mystery Book, I will find a chance to tell you, Boss!"
Morax shook his head. "Then why haven't you found a partner to spend the rest of your life with? Don't you think it's completely irrational and illogical for you to advise me on this?"
Gu Shen suddenly lost his words and felt as if his heart was being chopped into pieces by a knife .
"That's not the point! Isn't the point that I care about you, a lonely old dragon?"
Morax smiled: "With you and the people who trust me and are willing to follow me, I am not alone."
"That's why I said, Boss, why don't you find one?"
Gu Shen suddenly became serious again: "I'm about to die, not to mention that among mortals, I'm already considered a super old turtle."
"Five hundred years from now, a thousand years from now, who knows who will be by your side in the end."
Gu Shen turned and left: "I don't know the details of your relationship with Sister Gui Zhong, but at least I know that you really don't have any ideas in this regard. This time I came here just to give you some advice. I was originally planning to find a coffin and lie down and wait for death."
Morax looked at Gu Shen: "You, don't you want to go back and take a look?"
Gu Shen waved his hand carelessly: "No, no, I'm not going. I'm going to find a place to see if I can make a further breakthrough in my strength. After all, with a boss like you who makes people worry, it's hard for the people below to die peacefully."
The picture stayed on Gu Shen’s departing back, and the memory crystal seemed to have come to a halt here.
By the time Gu Sanqiu sensed the new picture, the scene had changed drastically.
The mountain top is surrounded by the sea , and the steep peak reaches the sky.
Excluding some strange questions like "Does my butt hurt when I sit here?", Gu Sanqiu has already discovered where this place is.
The solitary peak on the Yunlai Sea looks like a man-made product, and its function is probably similar to that of a lighthouse, or it may be simply a warning booth or a sentry tower.
Gu Shen may have anticipated the danger. Fortunately, there is no Guyun Pavilion yet. If there was, and some negative changes occurred, this madman would definitely drag those old residents away with him.
"Above perfection is taboo. I thought I could get a glimpse of the mystery of the demon god by surpassing the taboo, but in the end the road was broken."
Gu Shen looked up at the sky: "I can't even cross the taboos, let alone the mysteries of the demon god. This is really a frustrating world."
"But I still want to see what it's like up higher!"
Boom!
Thunder rumbled and fire filled the sky. Gu Shen rushed up into the sky with a spear in hand and started a life-and-death battle with the celestial phenomena.
If you can cross it, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you can't cross it, you can't even sleep in the coffin.
Of course I could just walk away and have nothing to do with this world anymore.
But what about the boss?
What about the brothers who fought together all over the world?
What about those people who believe in me and respect me and who suffer in the war?
Those gathered under the Thousand Rocks Dragon Flag, whether they are the people of Sister Guizhong or everyone on their side, are willing to believe that Morax is the demon god who can bring peace and tranquility!
"The people are suffering, all beings are in torment, so what!"
Gu Shen roared: "Today, I must open a way for them to move forward!"
"Who dares to stop me!"
The rumbling celestial phenomenon lasted for several days. When it ended, when Gu Sanqiu was finally able to see the picture clearly, he heard Gu Shen’s laughter for the first time.
"Hahaha, I see, that's how it is!"
Gu Shen pointed his spear to the sky and roared at the woman with white hair and golden eyes in the sky.
"In that case, let's make a deal!"
"God's will!"
Just when Gu Sanqiu was shocked, Zhongli's voice rang out.
"That day, I met the 'Sustainer of Heaven' and learned some deadly secrets."
"He understood a lot, but there was no chance for him to express it. He used his life as collateral to completely forget certain things and give up all possibilities of fate and his own future."
"The contract has been signed and the deal has been done."
"Heaven will extend his life and allow him to rule Liyue for another thousand years."
"This is the source of my long lifespan, which is comparable to that of a demon god. This is also the real reason why the great commander Wushuang is no longer seen in history and is only passed down in the mouths of ancient creatures like us."
