Legend of the Moon Sword
The hidden thing

In the scorching daylight, Gu's residence was still as crowded as ever. Especially after this morning there were some big businessmen who had a meeting with Mr. Gu. People are getting preoccupied with it.

But not with those two rancid brats, Zhi Yuo and Xie Jia. They run away from work, with Zhi Yuo as the mastermind here. He instigated Xie Jia to skip work for a day and he said he would invite Xie Jia to play. Xie Jia who was still innocent agreed to it and they both asked Yan Yan to shut up about those who skipped work.

About Lin Mei? I don't know, they both haven't seen him since. Normally Lin Mei had already snapped at them and told them to work.

The two of them hid in the warehouse, with the dark conditions only light entering through the fragile window. Xie Jia brought a blanket from her room, sat face to face with Zhi Yuo and covered their bodies with a blanket.

The room that had been dark was darker because Xie Jia closed the lighting access with a cloth.

It's like playing in the woods.

"At that time there was a monster of this size, his teeth were pointed and his nails were sharp. He chased me to the slave society." Zhi Yuo told me. With an expression that also lives the hand that moves according to the story he describes, adding to the impression of a dark horror.

Xie Jia closed her mouth fearfully, "Then? Did the monster hurt you?"

Zhi Yuo chuckled after hearing that. He patted his chest proudly, "Of course not, I kicked him in the face until he cried in fear."

Xie Jia clapped his hands in excitement, He thought Zhi Yuo was really cool when fighting that big monster he was telling me about. Xie Jia is hooked on Zhi Yuo's heroic story.

While the storytelling can only laugh amusedly in the heart.

"I was imagining, but this boy believed in me."

"Is there another story?" Xie Jia charged for the next story. There were already five stories that Zhi Yuo had told him. And it was pretty exciting for him.

Zhi Yuo thought for a bit before he finally snapped a finger because he had a pretty good imagination.

"I've got a pretty spooky story, so listen carefully."

Xie Jia gulped her saliva roughly, with her knees hugged she gave a small nod. The two were silent, while Zhi Yuo took a breath to start the story.

"So, one day I-"

"Hey you!"

Xie Jia screamed hysterically, she threw down the blanket and ran to the corner of the room and curled up. While Zhi Yuo was staring at Yan Yan Yan who had just shocked them with a lazy look.

Yan Yan Yan clucked, he picked up the blanket that was on the floor, "While a spooky story apparently? Why do you have to run away from work while you do a lot of work?".

Zhi Yuo waved his hand and smiled faintly, "Later on."

Yan Yan snorted, glancing at Zhi Yuo sharply. He folded the blanket and grabbed his pocket.

"I brought you lunch, leftover bread and vegetables. I only brought you bread. Eat this."

Zhi Yuo raised his eyebrows, looking at the palm of Yan Yan hand which contained two smooth white breads there. Both look soft despite the cold.

Xie Jia who heard the word 'lunch' immediately ran towards them, quickly she gave a teary look.

"Sister Yan Yan, thank you!" He said happily.

"A-Yuo, take one." Yan Yan thrust out another loaf of bread.

Zhi Yuo was speechless when he saw Xie Jia eating the voracious bread that was in his hand. The bread may soon be over.

For some reason, he remembered Chang Yu. Looking at the innocent children like Xie Jia, made his memories drift into the past.

Forget that! He doesn't want to remember that anymore!.

Zhi Yuo took the bread from Yan Yan's hand, thanked him then ate it slowly. It was tasteless, Zhi Yuo almost never ate food with this kind of taste.

In the sect, food was abundant. He had nothing to lack while living there. But when he looked down and found the poor and poor slaves as he is now, his heart was touched.

Back when he was at the peak of glory, why did he not have the slightest feeling to help them? His life was only filled with training, cultivation, and martial arts.

After becoming one of the strongest people in the cultivation world, Zhi Yuo became an individual person. He rarely joins the others.

Busy for the sake of busyness he lived alone, without him looking back to pay attention to the many people who are in trouble.

"My life has been meaningless."

"Sister Yuo.."

The little girl smiled shyly, she pointed at the bread that was in Zhi Yuo's hands.

"Can I eat it? Brother Yuo did not eat it from earlier."

Zhi Yuo fell silent again, a little shocked when he had just regained consciousness from his past memories. He looked at his own hand, the bread was still intact, there were only a few bites there.

Xie Jia asked him because he felt lacking. Zhi Yuo smiled, he gave the bread to Xie Jia.

Xie Jia smiled happily, she directly devoured the bread. His body was indeed skinny and tiny, quite apprehensive. Didn't the other seniors take care of him in such a way that he often went hungry like this?.

Zhi Yuo stroked Xie Jia's long mane, "Eat a lot."

Xie Jia paused from her eating activity, staring at Zhi Yuo's bead. A soft smile expands from her lips. And it made Xie Jia feel the warmth in her chest.

Xie Jia smiled widely, she continued to eat her food until it ran out. And that made Zhi Yuo happy. Watching him eat until he's full of happiness.

"Are you sure Brother Yuo isn't hungry?" Xie Jia asked with her mouth full, her cheeks filled and looking round.

Zhi Yuo chuckled, his fingers pinched Xie Jia's cheeks.

"I'm not hungry yet, I'll eat it."

Lie, actually Zhi Yuo is hungry but he has no appetite for food. Better he try to fast? It might be harder.

"Oh, Brother Yuo if you wear female clothes you look beautiful. But if you dress modestly with your appearance like this, you look even more handsome." Xie Jia said in a plain tone.

Zhi Yuo cleared his throat, he glanced here and there with a smile that could not escape his mouth.

It's been a long time since it's been praised this makes it wrong.

"Thank you, I'm going to change my habit of wearing women's clothes now anyway."

Xie Jia nodded, then giggled amusedly when she saw Zhi Yuo's misbehaved face when praised.

But the truth was so, Xie Jia did not lie that Zhi Yuo was indeed quite handsome.

Wearing simple clothes like this he looks handsome, let alone eat expensive clothes? Must look like a royal prince. Unfortunately, his unfortunate fate became a slave.

"Oh yeah, I have something to ask you." Zhi Yuo opened the conversation.

"What do you think Miss Gu Fei is?" Zhi Yuo started asking.

Xie Jia thought before replying, "I think she is very beautiful, even at her age of 40 she still looks young. Also, he loved Mr. Gu so much that he often brought him medicine."

Zhi Yuo nodded, "But they split the house?".

" Yes, but Miss Fei kept her eyes on Mr. Gu, she still brought him medicine once a week." Answer Xie Jia.

"Hey, are there no healers? Why bring medicine all the way?" Zhi Yuo asked again.

"Tabib is not allowed here, at that time there was a healer who came here at the call of Yan Yan who was worried about Mr. Gu's declining health. Lin Mei expelled the physician and until now no healer was allowed to enter here."

Over time it felt strange, Zhi Yuo tried to review this deeper.

"So, Mr Gu only took medicine from his wife? Is that on the advice of a healer?".

Xie Jia shook her head, "Don't know, for sure he said it was a good medicine that had its origin from out of town. But it's strange why Mr. Gu hasn't been cured when it's good medicine."

Zhi Yuo fell silent, when he discovered the awkwardness in Xie Jia's story he began to smile broadly like a demon.

"Oh, I'm getting curious. Looks like there's a chess game in this family."
