The Supreme One

Chapter 195 The Gou Family Negotiated

"Running away from home? What do you mean running away from home? Dad, are you going to run away from home?"

Gou Shou also looked confused and had no idea what his mother meant.

Lianxiu, who returned home anxiously, saw Gou Shou's appearance. With his understanding of these men in his family, he immediately understood what was going on, and then he slapped Gou Desheng on the shoulder.

"Snapped!"

"You've been talking for days, have you? What's going on?!"

"Hiss. Oh, my dear, be gentle. Xiaoshou is planning to go to Gurong Academy right after graduation. How far is that? It will take me hundreds of years to go back and forth!"

Although he felt aggrieved by the slap from his wife, Gou Desheng still answered Lianxiu's questions honestly from his heart.

But his explanation, without any cause and effect, made it hard for people to understand what was going on. Lian Xiu could only roll her eyes at him. A slap in the face calmed her intense emotions. She turned around and looked at Gou Shou, who was still honest but a little stupid, and said helplessly:

"Shou'er, tell me what's going on."

Gou Shou nodded, put down the teacup in his hand, thought about the content of his previous conversation with Xia Xian and others, and after briefly sorting it out, he said:

"Mom, this is mainly because Brother Xian wants to take a new path. Now the last step of entry is stuck in the soul. He heard from the master of the library that the knowledge he needs is in Gurong City, so he decided to go to Gurong Academy.

It just so happened that the bloodlines of the three of us that could be merged had reached the standard for entering the human inner courtyard of Gurong Library, so he thought of taking us along so that we could take care of each other and help him block attacks and deal with troubles when needed.

And I also thought about it, our school is indeed not as rich as the ancient banyan school city, and we don’t have much experience in how to cultivate people with tengu blood, so we can still go. "

Hearing these words, Gou Desheng at the side showed a relieved expression. His silly child has finally grown up.

Although Lianxiu was also relieved, she was much more thoughtful. She looked at her child and said, "You have thought a lot, kid, but you only thought of these things after everything was agreed, right?"

Upon hearing this, Gou Shou originally tried to imitate Xia Xian's indifferent look, as if everything in the world was in his heart, but this time he failed immediately. He scratched his head, smiled innocently and said, "That's right, but I have indeed thought about it seriously."

"Hey, you little idiot, you really do believe whatever Xiao Xian says, don't you? His words are more useful than ours, right?"

Looking at Gou Shou's trust as if it was a matter of course, although Gou Desheng knew in his heart that there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, he always felt that something was not right.

Obviously, he is their own child, but he listens to others more than they, the parents.

Even though he treated Xia Xian as his own nephew, he still felt a bit jealous.

But when Lianxiu heard what he said, she just rolled her eyes at him.

"What else? Should I listen to you? You are already this old, do you know as much as Xiao Xian? You have lived this long in vain!"

"Haha, no way. Even if you don't listen to me, you should listen to your wife."

Without any hesitation, Gou Desheng chose to surrender.

The affection between the two has not faded at all with the passage of time.

Gou Shou looked at his parents' daily behavior, and now combined with what Xia Xian said before, he couldn't help but have more insights.

"Brother Xian is right. In this world, those who can become husband and wife must be souls that are incomparably compatible. Their feelings only grow stronger with time, and most of the time the man is weak and the woman is strong. So as long as we convince Mom, there will be no problem."

He should have thought these words out in his heart, but even if Gou Shou used all his brainpower, his thinking habits were still unable to change, and he just said out loud what he was thinking.

This made Gou Desheng, who had been smiling ingratiatingly at Lianxiu, immediately dissatisfied.

"You kid, do you really take Xiao Xian's words as the truth? He's just a little kid, let alone a wife, he hasn't even had a girlfriend, right? What does he know about love?"

Even though he is weak and his family status is low, you can't say it clearly!

How can you let him save face as a husband and a father?

"Hmm? What's wrong? It seems like you have some opinions about me recently?"

Gou Shou didn't even need to say anything. Lianxiu, who was originally very happy when she heard Gou Shou's words, now seemed to have some ulterior motives when she heard Gou Desheng's words.

This made Gou Desheng unable to bother educating his son who had been completely led astray by Xia Xian, and he kept whispering to Lianxiu.

There were all kinds of words of begging for mercy and expressing determination. If Gou Shou had not been blocked out of consideration for his father's face, he would probably have felt sick for a while even though he had no feelings for love.

After all, the words between lovers only touch each other's souls. If outsiders hear them, it will really numb their souls.

For a moment, it seemed that Gou Shou’s impending departure from home was no longer a big deal.

Even though Gou Shou was very slow in emotions, he couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, Brother Xian is right. Men will become weak because of love. I, Gou Shou, must not be poisoned by love!"

"Ahem, alright, alright, stop being cheesy and let's get down to business!"

Although Lianxiu had a serious face, even Gou Shou could see the smile in the corner of her eyes.

Gou Desheng, who was standing by, also knew when to stop and stopped talking, just standing there laughing foolishly.

"Okay, Xiaoshou, what mom said just now didn't mean I was against it, it was quite the opposite."

When Lianxiu thought of Xia Xian, she not only loved this sensible and smart child, but also admired him very much.

"You know that the strength and fortune you have now come from Xiao Xian.

Although I don't quite understand what your brain power is, and you seem to be much smarter, I can still see as a mom that you just think faster, but actually you are still not smart enough.

We watched Xiao Xian grow up. We know what kind of person he is, so we feel relieved.

So when you go out in the future, just remember to do whatever Xiao Xian says. Even if you don’t understand or even doubt it, don’t disobey Xiao Xian’s advice.

You can try to understand and learn on your own, but before you learn and fully understand, it’s best to just do what Xiao Xian says.”

In their hearts, they truly regarded Xia Xian as their own son or nephew.

They also knew that Xia Xian treated Gou Shou as his own brother, so naturally he would not harm him.

In the future, when they are unable to help, they will feel more at ease knowing that Xia Xian will serve as Gou Shou's brain.

Gou Shou listened to his mother Lianxiu's words and nodded in agreement.

But after listening to it, he had some doubts: "Well, how do I know if I fully understand what Brother Xian meant? What if I misunderstood?"

"Your brain is still as dull as before. You can't figure it out at all! If you don't understand, just ask Xiao Xian!"

"Oh oh oh, so that's it." Gou Shou scratched his head and gave a silly smile to Lian Xiu, who was angry and a little depressed.

"Oh, by the way, then, Mom, shall I go to Gurong Academy with Brother Xian? He hasn't practiced cultivation in a short time, so he's very fragile. It's much safer to have me to block his attacks."

As he spoke, he patted his sturdy arms, looking like he was very tough. What he meant was that he wanted to persuade Lianxiu to agree to go to Gurong Academy with Xia Xian.

Looking at her child's silly look, Lianxiu shook her head speechlessly.

Gou Desheng, who was standing by, was also helpless. He just raised his hand and slapped Gou Shou on the forehead.

"You are such a fool! Your mother agreed to let you and Xia Xian go out, but you don't understand?"

"Oh? Is that so? You're so nice, Mom! I'll go pack my things!"

After getting the answer he wanted, Gou Shou could no longer sit still. He immediately stood up and ran back to his room happily.

After Gou Shou left, Gou Desheng and Lianxiu, who were sitting next to each other in the yard, looked at each other and felt helpless and reluctant to let him go.

This child seems to be a little smarter, but he is still stupid! Even Xia Xian can't cure him, and they are powerless.

But no matter how stupid or dumb this child is, he is still the child they raised.

Now he is going to leave them so early, how can they bear it?

Now none of my three children are left by my side.

The child has grown up, and it is indeed time for him to go his own way.

Although they are a monastery with some background, they don't actually have many methods to train monks.

After successfully fusing their bloodlines, even if they have achieved perfection, what remains to be learned is up to them to learn on their own, or to ask their predecessors for advice.

It is naturally impossible for them to be like the heirloom families of the Holy Family, who have to cultivate to the level of Manifestation of Gods before they have the power to protect themselves and can go out.

They have too little foundation and their upper limit is too small. Normally speaking, being able to cultivate to the out-of-body realm is considered the highest realm in their cultivation hall, and the manifesting spirit realm is already enough to stand on their own.

After fusing their bloodlines, disciples of the training hall naturally need to choose their own path.

Of course they can go out, but at their level, they can only hang out around the City of River Willow. How can they compare with those geniuses who travel around the world directly?

So compared to those heirloom families, they know how to let go and have to let go.

Since Gou Shou wants to go to the Gurong Book City, then just go there.

Although they knew almost nothing about the place, having Xia Xian by their side was enough to reassure them.

As for more, it all depends on his luck.

They had no idea what he was going through, and could only pray silently when they recalled it.
