Chapter 610 How Does Gu Li Knows Mi Luan (7)

??The new day of training started for the shadow guards of Youxio.

??Gu Li asked his shadow guards not to remove the tents. He kind of liked the place. The river was near and they could get fruits also from the nearby tree.

??He thought as he looked towards the little fella who was silently sitting on a big stone. He never noticed that his eyes were soft as he looked at little fella. He had started to think of Mi Luan in everything he planned in his life though it had been just a night he had spent with the boy.

??Gu Li took the shadow guards to some isolated part of the forest to practice. Before leaving, he was wondering if he should leave Mi Luan here or if he should have him go with himself.

??After a moment of thought, as he looked at Mi Luan's soft and small hands, he thought that it would be better if the little fella stayed here only.

??So he opened his mouth to tell Mi Luan strictly, that he couldn't run around at all in his absence. However, just when he wanted to say something, the picture Mi Luan holding the dagger with both hands, from last night, flashed in front of his eyes.

??His Mi Luan didn't even know how one holds a dagger!

??Gu Li felt as if there had been something stuck inside his throat he didn't how to swallow. Finally, he looked at little fella with narrowed eyes as he remembered the way he had been running away from the man who wanted to kill him yesterday.

??His, Gu Li's, people never runs away with their back facing the enemies. Instead, it was something their enemies did.

??With this thought, all of his hesitations flew away suddenly and with one arm he picked the little fella from the big stone he was sitting on.

??Mi Luan who had been picked up silently by someone : ….

??.

??.

??.

??Half a shichen later, as the shadow guards cleared the area, Mi Luan stood looking at them by Gu Li's side. 

??Gu Li nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw him looking at them intently. He thought that Mi Luan would be willing to learn whatever he wanted to teach him.

??Even if he was not, he would make him willing! 

??However, now one more thought was constantly occupying his mind. Who was the man trying to kill Mi Luan yesterday and why did he want to kill Mi Luan!

??The question bothered him very much so Gu Li asked without any hesitation.

??"Who was the man yesterday? Why did he want to kill you?"

??Gu Li noticed very well how Mi Luan stiffened at his question. His eyes narrowed and suddenly a thousand possibilities flashed inside his mind as well as many other questions.

??Could it be that Mi Luan offended that man somehow! But his little fella looked very sensible and obedient. Gu Li couldn't bring himself to think that Mi Luan could offend someone.

??Impatience and frustration flashed across his eyes when he didn't hear any answer from Mi Luan's side so he asked again.

??This time, his question brought Mi Luan out of the trance he was in and he said calmly.

??"I don't know."

??Gu Li's eyes narrowed. He didn't seem to believe little fella's words. He held out his hand and pinched his chin to raise his hand. However, when he saw his calm and clear eyes, he couldn't really think that Mi Luan was lying to him!

??And he was just a child. It could be possible that he didn't know this.

??"But how did you come to the forest?"

??This time, Mi Luan didn't take much time to answer.

??"I was in the outer part with my people. We slept at night there and that man kidnapped me from there and brought me here."

??Gu Li tsked as he said more likely to himself.

??"Is that how deep you sleep?"

??The words made Mi Luan frown as if he was thinking about this matter himself. A few moments later, he spoke calmly.

??"I suppose that he mixed some kind of drug in my food last night."

??Gu Li thought that he saw some kind of disappointment flashing across Mi Luan's eyes as the little fella said this. Was he disappointed in himself that he couldn't protect himself?

??Gu Li's heart softened and he couldn't stop himself from ruffling his hair as he comforted him

??"It's alright. It's not your fault. The drug can control anyone not only you."

??Mi Luan looked at his hand that was ruffling his hair and then at him silently. In fact, he was actually disappointed but his reason for being disappointed was completely different from what Gu Li thought.

??However, he didn't need to tell this to Gu Li.

??.

??.

??.

??After the shadow guards had cleared the area, Gu Li asked them to practice swordsmanship. Looking at Mi Luan, his lips twitched and he suddenly picked a stick from the ground.

??Mi Luan looked at the stick that was held out for him with confusion-filled eyes only to hear from Gu Li.

??"Here, you will practice with me. From today on, you will also learn how to protect yourself."

??Seeing Mi Luan's small body and remembering how soft his hands were yesterday, Gu Li had thought that the young boy had never gone through any hardship and hence he will naturally refuse to agree with what he was saying.

??However, contrary to the refusal he had expected, he saw how Mi Luan's eyes brightened and how he looked at the stick in his hand in a daze.

??A moment later, the little fella took the stick with a still dazed face and looked at Gu Li with bright eyes. This was perhaps the first time, Gu Li saw them this bright.

??And he liked it a lot …at least more than his calm and emotionless eyes that made him amused. 

??"Will you teach me this?"

??Gu Li's always cold heart unconsciously softened at this question. Was he so eager to learn it? Then he, of course, will teach him everything he knew.

??So he nodded his head firmly and said calmly

??"Yes."

??However, Mi Luan was perhaps in too much disbelief so he asked again.

??"Will you also teach me how to fly in the sky?"

??It took Gu Li a moment to understand that he was talking about qingqong and he couldn't stop himself from laughing out loud.

??The shadow guards who were practicing stooped suddenly and looked at Gu Li with baffled faces. All of them were new and Gu Li was still training them.

??It had almost been a year since they had joined Youxio but they had never seen Gu Li smiling let alone laughing like this.

??In fact, even other old shadow guards in Youxio say that Gu Li never smiled or laugh since the day he joined Youxio.

??They couldn't believe that he was laughing right now. As they saw their master nodding their heads and saying to the young boy 'Yes', their eyes held amazement. 

??This boy was surely something else!
