Chapter 77 Facing Destiny
Gu Zhuo looked to the upper table.
Master Xiuhu was sitting there, looking at him with a smile that was full of kindness and encouragement.
As the words fell, people's eyes gradually focused on Gu Zhuo. His drunken head sobered up a lot, and his expression became obviously more serious.
Everyone who answered the question before knows how far away they are from being the best in the world. Even if they indulge in drinking and singing tonight and talk arrogantly according to the wishes of their elders, it must be false and will never come to reality. Wonderful dream of the world.
However, Gu Zhuo was different.
Because of the conflict before tonight's banquet, many geniuses present had objections to Gu Zhuo, but no one doubted his strength and talent. Otherwise, why would they be secretly complaining about seeing each other tomorrow and next year?
Someone had already started fighting.
If any of the young geniuses participating in the banquet tonight will reach the top of the world and be called the best in the world, then the most likely person is Gu Zhuo.
There is no one else but him.
Gu Zhuo didn't speak, he seemed to be thinking.
Only Lin Wanyi, who was close enough to him, vaguely realized that this was not the case.
All was quiet.
Anxiety gradually arose in the field because everyone didn't know what was going on.
Some even thought he was being showy.
The two big shots sitting next to Master Xiuhu were very good at cultivating qi. Naturally, they would not be angry because of the long silence, but they were still a little unhappy.
I don't know how long it took, but Gu Zhuo shook his head slightly and said seriously: "No need."
Hearing this sentence, everyone was puzzled. They thought that if you don't want to, you can just refuse. What do these three words mean?
Master Xiuhu smiled and said, "Do you think the cost of my fortune-telling for you is too high?"
After the words fell, there was an uproar in the venue.
It turned out that the previous question was part of the hexagram, and it was Master Xiuhu who was fulfilling his promise. After many people realized this, they quickly recalled the stupid words they had just said, and they suddenly became anxious and worried.
Gu Zhuo looked at him quietly, shook his head again, and said: "You take your destiny."
This sentence is very profound and can have many meanings.
The most direct one is, of course, that fate is decided by people, and there is no need for others to watch.
Master Xiuhu was silent for a long time, and the emotions in his eyes were no longer concealed, and they were clearly visible to everyone.
Eventually all these emotions turned into a sad sigh.
The old man looked at Gu Zhuo and said with emotion: "You are right."
After saying this, he seemed to have strong emotions in his heart. He stood up and walked to the terrace, his figure a little bleak.
In the eyes of people here, there is no doubt that this old man recalled some painful memories and could no longer sit down calmly.
Out of respect, no one would disturb him at this time, leaving silence for him.
Many people admired him a lot and felt closer to him. They felt that this old man was really straightforward and much better than those so-called big shots who always liked to hide things.
Only one person knew that the moment Master Xiuhu walked to the terrace during the walk, his face suddenly turned pale, his facial features were silently twisted and squeezed together, and his whole person looked extremely painful.
Blood kept rising from his throat, seeping through his teeth, covering his lips, and staining his stubble red.
His eyes were bloodshot, and turned white in the blink of an eye, losing all their luster, resembling a dead fish.
At this moment, the night breeze brought coolness, which relieved his mind.
Master Xiuhu took a deep breath, forced himself to get rid of the constant pain in his soul, took off the wine bottle from his waist and took a deep sip.
The wine was scattered randomly, covering up the smell of blood and allowing him to wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Until this moment, he had no room to recall the previous scene, so he was afraid.
After Gu Zhuo said his first words, Master Xiuhu subconsciously used secret techniques to deduce the opponent's secret.
However, he never expected that what fell into his eyes would be... a strange and abstract scene that he still couldn't understand until now.
It was as if the whole world had overlapped, countless bizarre scenes emerged one after another, and nothing could be seen clearly.
This was something he had never encountered since he had mastered the secrets of heaven and earth.
He was certain that if Gu Zhuo hadn't said the second sentence in time, allowing him to get rid of those scenes... maybe his soul would have collapsed and died on the spot.
What the hell is going on?
Although he has not broken through from the Guiyi Realm, because of his strange encounter that year, his spiritual strength is rare in this world. Why did this happen? Suddenly, Master Xiuhu recalled the four words Gu Zhuo said.
——Destiny comes to you.
Destiny is above the human world, who is qualified to take it for himself?
It is impossible that Gu Zhuo has obtained the destiny, and what he did before was... facing the destiny?
This explanation makes sense.
But he couldn't believe it.
"Who are you?" Master Xiuhu muttered to himself.
……
……
The atmosphere of the banquet was silent.
Gu Zhuo looked at the young monk and said seriously: "I'm sorry."
Knowing why he was apologizing, Monk Wugou shook his head and said, "You have tried your best today, but I didn't do it properly."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
What the two said at this moment was naturally a matter of compliment.
Not long ago, the young monk also answered the question of being the best in the world. Just as he had once been proud of, the answer he gave made the three elders who acted as referees in a certain sense smile and applaud without hesitation.
If there are no accidents, the gods of tomorrow will spread what he said tonight.
This is enough as an explanation to satisfy those Zen masters who are optimistic about the little monk.
It's a pity that Gu Zhuo was named by Master Xiuhu.
"Then I'll leave first."
"...Okay."
The young monk wanted to say something to Gu Zhuo, but couldn't think of anything, so he reluctantly agreed.
Gu Zhuo and Lin Wanyi left the table.
The two walked very low-key, but did not forget to do what they should do - take away the pot of pear snow.
Leaving through the side door, you don't see the bustling lights of the main entrance. You step on the shadows of green trees and feel the cool breeze.
Lin Wanyi put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, looked at the leaves moving in the wind, and said, "You seem to be in a normal mood?"
"It's average."
Gu Zhuo admitted it simply and said: "I have encountered a troublesome thing now. I don't know what to do for the moment. I can't help but have a headache when I think about it, so I feel better."
Lin Wanyi frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Because of Xiuhu?"
Gu Zhuo noticed that the word "real person" was not included in the words.
Does this mean that Lin Wanyi had no respect for this person from the beginning?
"Yeah."
He said: "It has something to do with Xiuhu, but the main reason is still myself, so this matter is not actually his fault."
Lin Wanyi was confused when he heard this, thinking what kind of nonsense this was. You have never met before, right?
Why is this happening all of a sudden?
After Gu Zhuo was silent for a moment, he suddenly asked: "Do you have any news about Xia Ji?"
Lin Wanyi was really shocked this time.
If she understood it correctly, the meaning of this sentence should be... Gu Zhuo wants to know the specific situation of this year's summer festival?
She knew very well that her friend's temperament seemed as gentle as a spring breeze, but in fact, his pride was deeply rooted in his bones without even realizing it.
How can a person like this even have thoughts of cheating?
What is going on?
Lin Wanyi woke up and smiled, bright and beautiful.
The girl said proudly: "Then you have asked the right person!"
