Gu Chenzhou woke up when the sky outside was already very dark.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Jiang Wan’s voice: "Brother Chenzhou, are you hungry? We roasted some meat, have a little."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Yuezhi said, "You just woke up, it will be more comfortable to drink some porridge first."
Gu Chenzhou felt that Chen Yuezhi's attitude towards him was a bit too good. Chen Yuezhi had treated him well before, but not like this.
Now, Chen Yuezhi gave him the feeling of being like his closest female elder.
This kind of care made him a little at a loss, and also a little touched.
Chen Yuezhi did not mention his background, but smiled and said, "You've slept all afternoon, hurry up and get up and move around."
After knowing his background, she felt both heartache and admiration for Gu Chenzhou.
She felt sorry for such a young child bearing such heavy hatred and memories, and admired him for doing his best to seek revenge at such a young age.
Gu Chenzhou felt a little uncomfortable with Chen Yuezhi's gaze, and thanked her again and again, which made Jiang Wan laugh beside him.
Thinking of their previous conversation, and looking at Chen Yuezhi, Gu Chenzhou asked Jiang Wan in a low voice, "Did Aunt Chen also know?"
Jiang Wan nodded, "Don't worry, no one else knows."
"From now on, I'll help you."
When Gu Chenzhou was unconscious, Divine Doctor Jin told Jiang Wan a lot about the Gu family. Divine Doctor Jin was a sworn friend of Gu Chenzhou's grandfather and knew a lot about the Gu family.
From Divine Doctor Jin, Jiang Wan learned many inside stories and also knew about the Gu family's unwavering loyalty and bravery.
Jiang Wan was originally not a person with much national honor. Born in the apocalypse, she lacked feelings in this regard.
But after hearing about the Gu family's deeds, she was truly shocked.
Although she didn't quite understand the Gu family's loyalty to the Daliang imperial family, she was moved by the Gu family's great righteousness towards the people of Daliang. Such a Gu family was truly worthy of admiration.
Coupled with her friendship with Gu Chenzhou, Jiang Wan felt that she could provide some help to Gu Chenzhou's revenge plan.
Gu Chenzhou was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No need, this is my own business."
He didn't want to involve innocent people.
His opponent was too powerful, and he himself was not very confident. Why should he drag innocent people down with him?
The Daliang Emperor was already in decline, but the real culprit who killed more than three hundred people of the Gu family was more than just the Daliang Emperor!
The one who contributed the most was promoted by the Daliang Emperor, but now he openly coveted the Daliang Emperor's dragon throne and had already controlled half of Daliang's territory.
Those rebels outside were all that person's troops.
Thinking of the rebels outside, Gu Chenzhou's expression became even more somber.
The enemy was too powerful, and he had not yet grown up.
Jiang Wan patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, there is time for everything. First, make yourself strong enough."
This was the first time Gu Chenzhou had heard such comfort, and his heart felt a little sour.
For the past few years, he had been working desperately, and everyone was urging him to hurry up, faster and faster. This was the first time someone told him not to rush.
Jiang Wan knew that he must be under a lot of psychological pressure, so she reached out and touched his head: "You will definitely achieve your wish, I believe in you!"
Gu Chenzhou's expression did not lighten: "I don't even dare to believe in myself. I can't even face overly bloody scenes..."
He originally thought he could gradually endure it, but when he saved Jiang Wan, he realized that he still couldn't control himself.
Such a cowardly and incompetent him, how could he seek revenge!
Jiang Wan patted his shoulder: "I'm here, I will definitely accompany you to completely cure this problem! You don't want me to help you with revenge, but you can't refuse this."
Gu Chenzhou didn't know what to say for a moment.
He knew too well the girl's nature of not wanting to get into trouble. If there were no sufficient benefits, she would never let herself get into any trouble.
But what benefit could helping him cure his illness bring?
Jiang Wan said generously: "I am also a very generous person. Besides, we have been through life and death together. We are friends who have gone through thick and thin. Helping you cure your illness is only natural, isn't it?"
Moreover, she wanted to absorb energy for a lifetime.
Gu Chenzhou was deeply moved, realizing that this girl also had a conscience.
From this day on, Jiang Wan and Gu Chenzhou became the best of friends.
During their time in the mountains, Gu Chenzhou practiced sword fighting with Jiang Wan every day, and Jiang Wan's swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds.
Jiang Wan also continuously used her special abilities to strengthen Gu Chenzhou's body. Gu Chenzhou felt that his state of cultivation was getting better and better, and he always had inexhaustible energy. His cultivation grew rapidly, and he could clearly feel his changes every day.
In just a few days, his progress was comparable to the past six months, or even more.
In addition to strengthening his body, Jiang Wan was also trying to treat Gu Chenzhou's psychological illness.
But this illness was not a physical ailment. When it wasn't acting up, she could at most use her special abilities to soothe his nerves, and there was no further effect.
In other words, her special abilities only had an effect on him when he was having an episode.
Because when he was not having an episode, he was a normal person.
This made things very difficult.
Gu Chenzhou wanted revenge, and in the future, he would have to face all sorts of bloody scenes. Moreover, if he didn't escape that environment, her special abilities probably wouldn't have much effect.
He had to completely cure his psychological problems, otherwise, revenge was out of the question.
But this was not an easy task. Perhaps, after her special abilities leveled up, there would be a way.
Jiang Wan had another task, which was to strive to level up.
So, after practicing every day, Jiang Wan would find ways to pester Gu Chenzhou, and insisted on holding his hand, asking him to accompany her to wander around the mountains. Even when sleeping at night, she would pester Gu Chenzhou and want to sleep with him.
Gu Chenzhou was embarrassed by her: "Wanwan, this is not appropriate. I can accompany you to play during the day, but we can't sleep together at night. You are a young girl."
Jiang Wan pretended to be willful: "I'm only six years old. Boys and girls are not supposed to share the same mat after seven years old. I'm not yet seven!"
Gu Chenzhou twitched his mouth. If he remembered correctly, this girl would be seven in two months. If she was counted by her age, she was almost eight.
But Jiang Wan just wouldn't listen and insisted on pestering him.
Gu Chenzhou had no choice but to indulge her: "Alright, after you celebrate your seventh birthday, let's see what other excuses you have."
Jiang Wan also felt a headache. There were too many rules for ancient people, which really delayed things.
What method could they use to be together openly and honestly?
Jiang Wan couldn't think of a solution, so she went to ask Divine Doctor Jin.
Divine Doctor Jin stroked his beard and said, "Just get engaged."
