Chapter 114
Suddenly an idea flashed in Cheng Nan's mind. He quickly took off his monk's robe and pulled it open with both hands before covering it horizontally on the wooden sword. Then, regardless of whether there was a possibility of being burned, he quickly removed the monk's robe.
He wrapped it around the sword a few times, then held it tightly in his arms and wouldn't let go.
Such a huge thunderstorm with lightning and thunder outside was frightening to watch. Cheng Nan, who had always been timid and fearful, huddled under the workbench holding his wooden sword and did not dare to move. He knew the most direct consequences of doing so.
He will also face the risk of being struck by lightning, but this piece of lightning-struck wood is what Yu Wen paid for with his life. Even if he is buried with it, it will never be lost from his hands!
"Master, Uncle Wen, help me! Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, please bless and bless me. I can't let Uncle Wen down..." Cheng Nan huddled there with his eyes closed and muttered incoherently. At this time, he
I no longer know who to talk to for explanation or help.
But if you want to get something from him, unless he is really struck to death by lightning.
Cheng Nan shrank under the workbench for a long time, and in the end he couldn't remember what he had said, but intuitively he could sense that the sky outside had darkened significantly.
Although the heavy rain continues, the lightning and thunder should have stopped.
"What's going on?" Cheng Nan was just about to stick his head out and peek out of the window to see what was going on. He heard someone knocking on the door outside, "Master Nan, Cheng Nan! Cheng Nan, idiot Cheng... open the door, open the door quickly!"
”.
Gu Liang knocked on the door loudly, almost with all his strength. He did not want to remind the owner of the room that a visitor was coming, but he was afraid of an accident and wanted to come in for rescue, so he had no idea of knocking on the door.
I want to break the door open!
"Here we come...wait...wait..." Cheng Nan recognized the voice of Gu Liang, but he didn't rush to open the door. Instead, he carefully wrapped the wooden sword in his arms several times.
, only got out from under the workbench after making sure there was no accident.
Gu Liang was dripping water from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, as if he had taken a cold shower with his clothes on and his lips were blue and purple. The heavy rain had wiped away all the drunkenness he had just had.
"Senior Brother Gu? What are you...doing?" Cheng Nan looked at this visitor who came to visit his yard in the middle of the night in the pouring rain, lightning and thunder, and asked in confusion, "You...have something wrong?"
?”.
Gu Liang wiped the rain off his face twice, and looked carefully around Cheng Nan's body. He found that there was almost no obvious abnormality in him, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately collapsed.
He sat on the floor next to the door.
"Senior brother, what...is this? Oh...wipe your face first..." Cheng Nan quickly found a towel and handed it over, but still asked curiously, "Did something happen? Oh...your room is leaking and you can't live in it?"
”.
Such bad weather happened in the middle of the night. Unless his house was leaking and he wanted to stay somewhere else, Cheng Nan hadn't thought of other reasons yet, but he asked kindly, "Why don't you change your wet clothes first, and I'll borrow a set?"
How about you?".
"How about what? Bring it quickly, I'm freezing to death..." Gu Liang rushed into the bathroom and took off his clothes. If it hadn't been an emergency just now, he wouldn't have been able to do such a stupid and painful thing.
!
Cheng Nan handed over a clean set of monk robes and knocked twice on the bathroom door as a reminder, "Uncle Wen left this for me as a souvenir. You have to return it to me after you use it...".
"Okay! It's a set of old clothes. How dare you not let me wear them when Yu Wen was alive?" Gu Liang retorted dissatisfied, "If he hadn't begged me to help you, there would have been the eldest young master of the Lan family.
To save face, do you think I am sick and risk being struck by lightning in the middle of the night to save you?".
"You save me?" Cheng Nan was a little surprised, "The thunder outside suddenly disappeared. Could it be related to you? Senior brother, can you... still drink the God of Thunder away?".
Gu Liang changed his clothes and came out of the bathroom. He stared at Cheng Nan's young and handsome face for a while and then asked him, "I said you are a 'fool' is just an adjective and cannot be taken seriously! Master Nan, you don't think so.
,Are you really a fool?".
"Ah? Am I...stupid? I...don't think so..." Cheng Nan asked in surprise, "Although Uncle Wen said I was stupid, he didn't say I was a fool...".
"Okay, okay! Let's not discuss this issue for now..." Gu Liang had to change the subject and asked, "Are you injured? I saw the lightning strike just now and almost overturned the roof, so I thought
You...fortunately you're fine...".
"It's okay... it's just that my hand was burned... huh? That's not right..." Cheng Nan was slightly confused. He kept holding the wooden sword in his arms and did not dare to put it down. He was accustomed to using his left hand when he was looking for a change of clothes for Gu Liang.
He went to open the closet door, then took the clothes and came back to knock on the bathroom door. But when he was doing this just now, he didn't feel any pain...
"What's wrong with the hand?" Gu Liang also stared at his left hand twice, but found nothing abnormal, so he asked again in confusion, "Is your hand cramped?".
Cheng Nan raised his left hand and looked at it several times before turning to look at Gu Liang. He was burned when he tried to grab the sword with his bare hands. Not only was his palm very painful, it was almost burned to black. There was a very
There is obvious evidence of being burned. But now, if he says that he has been injured, it seems like he is fabricating it out of thin air and talking nonsense.
"It's okay, it's okay..." Gu Liang originally wanted to pat Cheng Nan on the shoulder to comfort him, but the height difference between them was too big. Gu Liang just raised his hand and discovered this fact, so he had to give up. In order to cover up this
With an awkward movement, he turned around and headed towards Cheng Nan's workbench.
Cheng Nan also understood his thoughts, smiled and followed him and asked, "Senior brother, do you also know about this sword? The 'master' that Uncle Wen mentioned is you, right?".
"Oh? You fool has become smarter..." Gu Liang stopped and turned around to look at Cheng Nan's face carefully, and then said with a surprised look on his face, "It's strange, it seems that you have really been struck by lightning."
It was struck by lightning! Oh...that’s not right, to be precise it wasn’t struck by lightning, it should be...".
"It's lightning! Just now, a bolt of lightning penetrated the window and came in. He rolled up the sword and tried to snatch it away. I was so anxious that I wanted to snatch it back..." Cheng Nan said and looked down at his left hand. There was no evidence that he had been burned.
He didn’t stay either, and I don’t know if Gu Liang would believe it.
"What kind of lightning? That's a dragon, a fire dragon. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" Gu Liang corrected, "That's the protective sacred object of the Southern Lihuo God... Hey, you can't be... But Master Nan, you
It doesn’t seem like it’s so stupid…impossible…”.
Cheng Nan didn't understand the meaning of Gu Liang's omissions and asked curiously, "I'm very stupid. Senior brother, can you explain it more clearly?".
"Xu Ru in the Suzaku position is an eloquent, resourceful, and skillful person. How do you think of it... He is completely different from you!" Gu Liang also shook his head in confusion, "But that fire dragon
How to explain it? A divine object like it cannot be controlled by anyone except the owner. How could it fall on you?"
"Xu Ru?" Cheng Nan was confused by the question. How could he give an answer to such a profound question? However, he also remembered that the eldest young master Lan Tianxing had also mentioned this name before. Did they identify the wrong person?
