MTL - The Old Gods Are Whispering-Chapter 78 Wan Wan's wish
Chapter 78 Wanwan's wish
When Gu Jianlin heard that name, he fell silent again.
Chen Bojun explained with a smile: "Actually, he has been thinking about you for many years. It's just that we suspected at the beginning that the curse of your family might be avoided by being an ordinary person. No one approaches you, for fear that you will wake up accidentally."
"This is actually very difficult, because your family has been sublimated without exception in history. I heard from your father that the cousin of his second uncle's cousin also wanted to avoid the curse in this way until he was thirty-nine. I didn't wake up at the age of 40. As a result, I passed through the night before my 40th birthday, squatting in a pit."
He spread his hands: "The next day, people will be taken to the crematorium."
The corners of Gu Jianlin's eyes twitched slightly.
"You can also ask Mr. Huai more about the curse."
Chen Bojun said: "He is the only one who can help you."
Gu Jianlin hummed.
"There is one more thing. Although Mr. Huai Lao means that he still hopes that you will continue to stay in the association and join the Omega sequence I am in. But I think that you may be disappointed with the association now."
Chen Bojun asked: "Do you still want to stay in the association? I have to remind you that the Omega sequence and the Tribunal are two completely different departments. We are in charge of war, and they are in charge of...you understand."
Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment, although the senses left by the Aether Association were poor.
I just have to admit that there are still many good people in the association.
Gu Jianlin was approved by the King of Green, so he could indeed leave.
But he felt that this was an escape.
Because besides Uncle Mu, there may be many such poor people.
What's more, now that he has mastered the power, he can do something from the inside.
Some people are depraved, but their hearts are not depraved.
There are still people who have not fallen, but their hearts have fallen.
Gu Jianlin possesses the power of an ancient god.
also has the blood of the ancient god.
Now that he has learned mind control, he can do many things that he couldn't do before.
The external attack efficiency is far inferior to the internal collapse.
What's more, he has only just stepped into the extraordinary world, and there are still many things he has never seen.
Elementary school teachers have taught that people must be down-to-earth.
Learn more, see more, witness more.
If Gu Jianlin hadn't come to Heiyun Walled City, he wouldn't have understood the suffering of those people in the refuge.
"I will stay with the Association."
He said seriously: "What I deserve, there is no need to give up because of some rubbish."
"Very well, I like your vigor."
Chen Bojun got up and said: "During this time, go to Mr. Huai to learn more things, your rank is still too low, you have to grow up as soon as possible. For example, the Thunder who guarded you at night, if there are no accidents, she It will be promoted to the fourth rank soon. It is probably the youngest fourth rank in the past two hundred years."
Gu Jianlin was slightly taken aback: "Watch?"
"Yes, to return your favor, no one can come in except those she approves."
Chen Bojun pointed out the window: "Here, she's gone."
Gu Jianlin turned his head and looked out the window at the lonely night.
Accompanied by the roar of the helicopter, the propeller wings cut through the wind and rain all over the sky, and galloped away.
There were gray hairs flying in the cabin, and they threw an arrogant look.
"This girl is quite interesting, and her background is not small, but her life experience is miserable, so she is a bit difficult to get along with."
Chen Bojun laughed and said, "Hold it well."
Gu Jianlin always felt that this person misunderstood something.
"I should go, there are some things in the association that need to be rectified, and I have to go to the court to break up."
Chen Bojun's eyes calmed down: "By the way, I have something to ask you."
Gu Jianlin said calmly, "Please tell me."
Chen Bojun took a deep look at him: "The total amount of good and evil in this world is always balanced. If you insist on going down this road, you will see more injustice. If you have a way to eradicate all evil, then what is the point of your doing so?"
Gu Jianlin thought for a while: "Do you need meaning?"
Chen Bojun was taken aback.
"I stood up this time because of the dignity of a father, for the kindness of a little girl, and for the tolerance and restraint of those people in the refuge. Maybe it's not all for them."
Gu Jianlin said softly: "I just... don't want to appease that cowardly me."
Chen Bojun sighed: "What a conceit."
Gu Jianlin was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "There is something I want to ask you."
Chen Bojun raised his eyebrows: "Speak."
Gu Jianlin asked seriously: "What is that thing outside the Qilin Fairy Palace?"
Chen Bojun thought for a while: "You are the student of the King of Blue, so it's okay to tell you. That is an ancient god. Although the identity cannot be confirmed yet, he is the ancestor of the Zhulong clan, but he is very weak. Even so, it wounded me badly."
Gu Jianlin's heart shuddered, so it was so.
"His existence is to guard Venerable Qilin and prevent him from recovering."
Chen Bojun said: "But he doesn't know who was hit hard. He no longer has that kind of power, and he is frantically trying to recover his strength. If I don't expect, he should have transformed a few **** servants to work for him. Some are busy."
Didn't die.
Gu Jianlin thought to himself what a pity.
Chen Bojun smiled and said, "Is there anything else I need help with?"
Gu Jianlin was stunned: "If it's possible...it really is."

At dawn, the storm-washed sky is as pure and clear as the sea.
The glass windows of the ward reflected the hazy clouds and sky, and a ray of sunlight fell on the curtains floating with the wind, casting a shadow on the white hospital bed. The light and darkness are so harmonious and peaceful.
Gu Jianlin stood in the ward, his face pale like a ghost.
There are two beds in the room, separated by a white curtain.
Uncle Mu was wrapped in bandages, like a mummy, connected with various cables. The data displayed on the instrument next to him was quite normal. He had indeed passed the dangerous period, but he was very weak.
Wan Wan curled up on the hospital bed, wrapped in a quilt, only showing a cute little face, and a violet crystal pendant hanging around her neck.
She was like a kitten, trembling as she dreamed of something.
Maybe what happened today scared her so much that she had a nightmare.
At this moment, Wan Wan suddenly moved, revealing her scarred little hands.
Gu Jianlin was stunned.
"what is that?"
Chen Bojun stood beside him, obviously stunned for a moment.
Gu Jianlin didn't speak, because he didn't know what to say.
Wan Wan tightly held half of the broken wood carving in her hand, and stuck it to her chest like a treasure.
She still remembers her promise, waiting for the man who can't come back to come back.
I really don’t know how she managed to get the broken wood carving back in that situation.
Gu Jianlin can avenge her, and he can also help her vent her anger and kill those who bullied him.
Even retaliated with an eye, stomping on the opponent's dog's head.
It's like that little wooden sculpture was crushed by that trash.
However, the injury suffered by the little girl, her long-term painstaking efforts, and even her self-esteem and kindness were trampled on.
And she didn't hurt anyone, but she saw the ugliest side of human nature.
This damage is irreparable.
Gu Jianlin took a closer look at the wood carving, and it was completely handmade by herself without any help from anyone else, because it was a gift she had promised to give out by herself.
She is young, doesn't know how to carve at all, and her hands are a bit clumsy.
Maybe I don’t know how many carvings were broken in the middle, so that I can get such a barely human appearance.
Gu Jianlin could even imagine that she was in the dark basement, with the help of the firelight while cooking, the clumsy appearance of trimming and trimming on the wood carving with a carving knife, and even hurt her hands from time to time.
Why did she only go back to do the wood carving when cooking, because fire is a scarce resource in that shelter, and she didn't have many matches left.
"My father is really important to her, right?"
Gu Jianlin said softly.
"Maybe."
Chen Bojun frowned, and sighed: "I'll think of a way, I can apply for a mythical weapon..."

When Wanwan woke up from her sleep, she got up in a panic.
She thought she was still in Heiyun Walled City, engulfed by the burning fire, watching her family members being persecuted and killed.
Especially the scene where the father was nailed to the ground with chains all over his body covered in blood.
It enveloped her like a nightmare.
Yet when the sun fell on her face, she froze.
This is the sunshine after the rain, falling on her little face, warm.
The delicate ward is rendered a beautiful golden color by the sunlight.
In the six years of her life, in all her memory, this was the second time she saw the sun.
Mu Feng was lying on the hospital bed next to him, wrapped up like a mummy, breathing evenly.
How is this going?
Wan Wan blinked her nimble eyes, and suddenly froze.
On the bedside table, the wooden box that belonged to her has been found.
Matchbox, carving knife, butterfly hairpin, compass, old teddy bear.
In addition, there is also a brand new pink sweater on the side.
She has never seen such a new dress.
Wan Wan suddenly looked down at her palm.
The crushed wood carving has been restored to its original state at some point, and the sun is falling on that ugly face.
seemed to be smiling at her.
