His Rui

Chapter 606 Hoes Does Gu Li Know Mi Luan(3)

　　It was dark now. The sun had already set and the area where the Youxio people were going to stay were lit by the light of fire.

　　Gu Li watched the shadow guards doing their work sitting on a stone near his master. By his side was sitting the little fella he had saved a shichen ago.

　　Every few moments later his eyes would glance at the little fella and then he would look back at the shadow guards busy in their works.

　　It surprised Gu Li that the little fella didn't say anything since the moment he had met him except for thanking him once.

　　Children could also be this silent…Gu Li came to know of this only today.

　　However, at the same time, he could feel that this abnormality in this little fella had some reason behind it. His eyes …the calmness in them told him that he was not as simple as he looked to be.

　　Gu Li came out of his trance when a shadow guard walked to him and told that everything was set up.

　　He nodded his head and looked towards his master who had his eyes closed. The old master opened his eyes slowly and smiled.

　　A moment later, he stood up from the ground and then walked towards the tents.

　　One of tent was made larger and it looked different from others. It obviously was made for the master. Gu Li led the old master to the tent.

　　He nodded his head in satisfaction once he entered the inside the tent.

　　Seeing the nicely made bed, he was satisfied with the job of shadow guards. He helped his master in lying down on the bed.

　　The old master laid down on the bed and looked at Gu Li calmly.

　　His eyes fell on Gu Li's hand that was holding the little fellow's hand all this while but perhaps Gu Li never seemed to realize it.

　　The old master smiled suddenly and closed his eyes again.

　　He was already very tired.

　　Gu Li knew this and didn't wish to disturb his master's rest. However, he still told his master to stay awake as he would bring the dinner hurriedly.

　　The old master hummed with his eye closed and Gu Li hurriedly left the tent.

　　His hand never let the little fella's hands and the little fella followed him silently and obediently. The shadow guards who saw their senior walking with a small figure looked at each other with surprise and curiosity.

　　All of them seemed to ask each other whether they knew what was going on, however, each one of them could only shook his head in ignorance.

　　Gu Li took the food in long leaves from the shadow guard's hands. It was deer's meat. He was about to turn around to go inside the tent when he heard a shadow guards saying to him

　　"Senior Brother, you can leave him here. We will take care of him. What if he disturbed Master's rest."

　　Gu Li frowned as he looked down at the little fella. Only then did he seem to realize that he had been holding his hand all this while. Awkwardness suddenly flashed in his eyes but he still didn't leave the hand.

　　Maintaining his calm and composed expression, he said coldly

　　"No need."

　　The shadow guard shrugged his shoulders but he pouted when Gu Li turned around to leave. He was thinking of asking the little fella as to how he knew Gu Li by stopping him here. However, his plan went unsuccessful.

　　On the other hand, Gu Li's hold was now firm on the soft hand that was in his rough and calloused hands. 

　　He went inside the tent with the food in his hands.

　　After the old master had eaten, Gu Li blow off the light of the lamp so that he could rest.

　　He left the tent with the little fella.

　　"Senior Brother, here is your portion."

　　A shadow guard came and gave some deer meat to Gu Li in long and wide leaves. Gu Li looked at it and then looked at the shadow guard and asked coldly.

　　"Where is hiss portion?"

　　The shadow guard only seemed to realize now that he was needed to prepare the little fella's portion also. He bit his tongue and was about to say that he will soon bring it.

　　However, before he could say it, the little fella tugged at Gu Li's hand and said calmly.

　　"I don't eat meat." 

　　Gu Li raised his eyebrows in surprise as he was not expecting that the little fella would open his mouth to speak at such a moment.

　　So he could speak but he only spoke when he deemed it to be necessary. He didn't know why but he felt amused as he looked down at him. He could see his small forehead all wrinkled at the sight of meat.

　　"Alright."

　　Gu Li nodded his head. He took his portion from the shadow guard's hands. After that, instead of going towards the shadow guards who were sitting with each other and eating together, he walked towards the forest with the little fella.

　　The shadow guards who were looking at his back again looked surprised and curious.

　　"Who is this boy?"

　　One asked the another who answered

　　"How do I know?...But doesn't Senior Brother seem to be very attached to him?"

　　Almost all of them agreed with this as they looked towards the forest where Gu Li had just walked to. Inside the forest, Gu Li suddenly jumped down on the ground in front of the little fella.

　　He passed the fruits in his hands to him and said strictly

　　"Here eat this."

　　When little fella looked at him calmly, Gu Li's frowned and said more strictly this time.

　　"You have to eat all of them otherwise I will leave you all alone here."

　　Gu Li thought that these kind of words should scare a child of the little fella's age. However, he was wrong. The little fella still looked very calm.

　　In the end, he sighed in frustration and said suddenly

　　"If you didn't eat this then I will stuff that meat in your mouth forcefully."

　　Sure enough, a few moments later, the little fella took the fruits from his hands. Gu Li was satisfied. Both of them sat together on a big stone under a tree to eat.

　　The dim moonlight was enough for Gu Li to see the little fell's half uncovered face as he eat. He had thought that the little fella would remove the cloth from his face to eat the fruits.

　　However, he ate them by pushing his hand under the veil.

　　Gu Li smiled in amusement. A moment later, he looked at the front and asked him calmly.

　　"What is your name?"

　　The little fella again didn't answer him. Just when Gu Li was not expecting any answer from his side, he heard the soft voice

　　"Mi Luan."

　　Gu Li smiled as he whispered the name

　　"Mi Luan"

　　Then he suddenly tsked and said mercilessly

　　"Mi Luan tsk…what a girlish name."

　　However, he was disappointed when the little fella didn't throw any tantrum at his insult. Instead, he continued to eat silently.
