Rebirth (edited)

"Huh? Where is this?" Gu Yue Fang Zheng rubbed his eyes, got up, and looked around carefully. It was a stilted bamboo building, a common sight in Southern Border. Pushing open the window, the scent of grass and wood rushed to his face, helping him to relax a bit. "Where is this place?" Mu Feng was puzzled. "Did I cross over to a different world? It's unscientific!" he squeaked.

The door of the bamboo building opened, and a middle-aged man with frosty white temples and a navy-blue costume walked in.

"Fang Zheng, how are you recovering?" The elder asked with concern, "I know all about Qing Shu, don't be too sad."

Fang Zheng did not respond, standing stiff, silent, as if he were a piece of lifeless stone.

"Fang Zheng? Qing Shu? Is this the world of Gu Master? Reverend Insanity?" Fang Zheng didn't say a word; he was sorting out his messy thoughts. "It seems that this old man is the patriarch of the Gu Yue clan. This time should be a few days after Gu Yue Qing Shu fought Bai Ning Bing and died. It seems that I, Mu Feng, am really reborn, reborn as the brother of the cold-blooded demon. My brother is Gu Yue Fang Yuan, the demon protagonist!"

"Master Patriarch, what are people living for?" Mu Feng now had to act accordingly and asked Patriarch Gu Yue about this age-old problem. Everyone has more or less answers to this question, and everyone's questions are more or less different. The answer to this question often affects a person's life.

For example, Gu Yue Fang Yuan lives for eternal life, and he has the confidence to remove all obstacles in front of eternal life, no matter what. Whether it is the closed moon shame flower, the sinking of the fish and the wild goose, the beauty that countless men find difficult to attain, Fang Yuan will stop at nothing to achieve his goal. Even though it's hard to match the Ten Great Venerables who are incomparably talented and shining in human history, still the people of the world are isolated, fearful, and abused. To Fang Yuan, it's nothing more than a little wind and frost. Regardless of the Heavenly Dao, the Ten Great Venerables, or the countless sentient beings in the world, no one can shake or stop his pursuit of eternal life.

(T/N: The first part of the sentence above is used to describe how beauty doesn't affect Fang Yuan. The ancient Chinese people often used to describe the beauty of Shen Yuluoyan; closed moon shame flower is probably such a beauty. Fish Sink and Wild Geese Drop, to Outshine the Moon and Put the Flowers to Shame.)

Gu Yue Bo sighed deeply and looked at the desperate young man in front of him with pity. Then he cast his eyes on the rain outside the window.

"Did you know? Ten years ago, there was a teenager who asked the same question." After a long time, Gu Yue Bo spoke slowly.

"That person is your team leader and, at the same time, my righteous son - Gu Yue Qing Shu."

Mu Feng had, of course, read this book well and remembered this chapter, but there must be a process to be followed for this. "Then patriarch, what is the answer for Brother Qing Shu?" Fang Zheng looked eager.

Gu Yue Bo chuckled. In his eyes, the images of Fang Zheng and Qing Shu seemed to overlap. Once, Gu Yue Qing Shu asked him the same.

The patriarch pondered for a while, remembered, and then repeated the answer from that year. "There is always sacrifice in an organization. From the moment a person is born, he is meant to die. Between life and death, people are fragile, but there is one thing that can warm the heart. That is love—this is my answer. There is also another answer - that is sacrifice."

The patriarch drew a letter from the drawer of the desk and handed it to Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng took the letter, opened it, and the delicate font came into view.

The beginning of the letter recorded the confusion and pain of Gu Yue Qing Shu. This is not only his confusion but also the confusion of all people in the world. Since humans began to have thoughts, they began to think about this problem.

Fang Zheng read it carefully. He compared himself to a big tree and his family to a forest. The old trees protect the new trees from wind and rain. When the new young trees grow into towering trees, the old trees will fall down and turn into nutrients in the soil, nourish the land, and turn into nutrients for the new trees. People will always die, and heaven and earth will not remember us. But the new trees will be the witness of the old trees. The family's forest will become more and more extensive, prosperous, and prosperous.

"Hey, Gu Yue Qing Shu is really a master. He has an admirable thought process. However, what a pity!" Fang Zheng sighed inwardly, "Although it is worth admiring, unfortunately, I am not the original Fang Zheng." After reading this letter, Fang Zheng was already crying.

Gu Yue Bo put away the letter. "In the future, when you think about the answer, you can also write a letter to tell me. Go now, take a good rest. The wolf tide crisis is not over yet, and you still need your strength."

"No." Fang Zheng slowly raised his head and clenched his fists.

"What?" Gu Yue Bo asked.

"I have found the answer that belongs to me," Fang Zheng's tone revealed unspeakable tenacity, "I will use all my strength to work hard to realize my dream, no matter what the difficulties are. I can't stop my pursuit. I want the name Gu Yue Fang Zheng to leave a mark in the history of the human race, like Spectral Soul Demon Venerable and Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable."

Even though mortals didn't know about the existence of Rank 6 or above, everyone had heard the names of the Ten Great Venerables, similar to how everyone in the Gu world knew of Ren Zu.

"Hahaha, okay, it's really ambitious." Gu Yue Bo laughed loudly, "For us Gu Yue, it's a great blessing to have a group of young people with ambitions like you."

Gu Yue Bo patted Fang Zheng's shoulder. "It's good to have lofty ambitions, but we should still keep our feet on the ground. I want the future of Gu Yue village to be glorious. I still have to rely on you. I hope that in the rest of my life, I can see you annexing the other two villages and unifying Qing Mao Mountain." As he said this, he took out a green token from his arms, the token was primitive, with a gilt engraving on it. There was a golden word on it - Gu Yue. He solemnly handed the token to Fang Zheng. "The future of the village depends on you."

"It's impossible without you, Lord Patriarch."

"This is your token." Fang Zheng looked shocked and didn't dare to take the token.

"No, you take it. This is from my heart." Gu Yue Bo forcefully stuffed the token into Fang Zheng's hand. "Your words reminded me of our 1st generation patriarch and 4th generation patriarch.

They are all heroes among our people and have the powers of the fifth rank, the peak of this world. They all had such ambitions, and I see their shadow in you. I hope you can achieve them.

"But patriarch, I only have a second-rank cultivation base," Fang Zheng said in a panic.

"Fang Zheng, you don't have to say any more. This is my opportunity for you and my test for you. With this token, you can freely enter and exit the family secret pavilion to access the historical database and underground caves. On the one hand, you can study historical books and inherit the wisdom of the ancestors of the Gu Yue clan. On the other hand, man is the spirit of heaven and earth, and Gu is the essence of all things. If you study the habits and functions of Gu worms in underground caves, it will be of great benefit for you to take charge of the Gu Yue clan in the future." Gu Yue Bo paused. "I haven't finished speaking yet. Of course, there is a test. The test is that you break through to Rank 3 within two months. After Qing Shu's death, the top combat power of the younger generation of my Gu Yue clan can be said to have been damaged. You must take this responsibility. If you don't finish the test within this time, don't blame me for taking the token back."

"Patriarch, I.." Fang Zheng said hesitantly.

"Fang Zheng, what about your pride just now? This stumped you?" Gu Yue Bo was slightly angry. "Are you deceiving me with false ambitions?"

"My patriarch? Calm down." Fang Zheng quickly explained, "Disciple Fang Zheng will pass the test of the head of the clan and contribute his strength to the prosperity of our Gu Yue clan."

"Haha, okay, You deserve to be a good son of my Gu Yue clan," Gu Yue Bo laughed and walked out. "The future of the Gu Yue clan depends on you young people."

"Respectfully greeting to the patriarch. I shall take my leave," Fang Zheng said to the patriarch.

"This seedling has such ambitions; it can be said to be the fortune of my Gu Yue clan." Gu Yue Bo calculated under the moonlight, "but this seedling's ambitions are too exaggerated, to be comparable to Spectral Soul and Paradise Earth. The sky is high and the earth is thick. These two are the top Ten Venerables. The top Ten Venerables are ten existences like the sun in the history of the human race. They have been shining on the history of the entire human race, and he's trying to be comparable to them. It is really too arrogant. But this seedling's ambition is not small. There is Bai Ning Bing in Bai village. Now our Gu Yue clan has Gu Yue Fang Zheng! This test will also suppress his ambition. Is it so easy to break through the third rank? This failure will make him down to earth, and then I will test him again. With more training, my Gu Yue clan's unification of Qing Mao Mountain is just around the corner. Ha, ha, ha." Gu Yue Bo couldn't help laughing when he thought of this.
