Chapter 663 Coming To Know About Gu Li's Past

  Gu Li ddidn't back away from his words. 

  The same night, many shadow guards left the valley and went to the Imperial City with the dead shadow guards. Xi Ying's shadow guards accompanied them but only five because they were well aware of the ways through which entering the place was more easier. 

  Xi Ying didn't send more because he wanted almost fifteen to be there to protect his wife and son. 

  Though a few shadow guards also got injured while fighting, their injuries were minor and since Li Rui was already there, there was nothing to worry about. 

  Li Rui didn't sleep after that.

  She with other two physicians started to treat the wounds of the shadow guards that they have gotten because of the arrows in their arms or back. 

  Gu Li was relieved with her presence. 

  These injuries were minior because she was here otherwise it could also reuslt to a death because they didn't have a single skilled physician in the valley. 

  "Mother…here"

  Li Rui stroked her son's head as she took the cloth from her son's hand who was helping her in treating the injured shadow guards. 

  She had thought that he would be afraid so she had decided to leave him with Li Hua. However, seeing the way Xi Ling helped her without any fear in his eyes, she felt very proud of her son. 

  "Brother Wang…you will be alright soon. Then we will fight again."

  She heard Xi Ling comforting the shadow guard who was lying on the bed like a child. 

  Brother wang smiled hearing Xi Ling's words and nodded his head in agreement. 

  "Sure. I will teach you another game."

  Xi Ling smiled brightly hearing this. 

  "Xi Ling will go and help others now."

  He said to his mother and then ran away from there.

  "Sister…"

  Li Rui looked at Brother wang who seemed to checking if she is alright with him calling her sister. She nodded her head with a smile on her lips. 

  Brother Wang was relieved and said 

  "You have a very cute son."

  Li Rui smiled but her smiled faltered a little when she heard him continuing 

  "I used to have a brother like him."

  She didn't know what she should say. She could only continue to wipe his wound and then apply some ointment on the wound. However, Brother Wang seemed to be in a daze and continued 

  "In fact, everyone here seemed to have such a past. I have heard that Master also used to have a younger brother."

  Li Rui paused amidst her work this time. She somehow understood that the 'Master' in Brother Wang's words was Gu Li. 

  She heard curiously as Brother Wang continued 

  "I had heard that they beat Master's brother to death and when he came back home, he found his brother's dead body. Master's mother committed suicide. In his sorrow, Master once sneaked inside the nobleman's house who did all that and slit his throat. He was running from the Imperial soldiers when the old master found him and gave him shelter in Youxio."

  Li Rui was shocked. 

  She had never imagined that Gu Li had such a story. 

  However, she had to maintain her calm as she started to apply the ointment on the wound again. 

  "My brother, however, died because of illness. I couldn't afford the money to treat him. After his death, I had nowhere to go so I joined Youxio."

  A heavy silence hung between them. 

  It was a few moments later, Brother Wang spoke again

  "I can't imagine anyone doing all that to my brother."

  Somewhere Brother Wang would always feel very sad on his master's part. His brother had passed away in sleep…without any pain. 

  But for his master's brother, it must have been unbearable. 

  When Li Rui was done, she asked Brother Wang not to let the water touch the wound for a few days. 

  "He had been sad for many days after you left."

  Brother Wang spoke to Li Rui before she left. 

  He was perhaps the first person whom Gu Li would give big responsibilities to after Rong Ting. So he knew a lot more than about Gu Li than others. 

  "Ten days after you had left…I had heard weird sounds from the forest at midnight where I reached accidentally. I still didn't believe that he was crying …but he seemed to be …"

  Li Rui felt her nose itching and her eyes going sore. 

  She blinked furiously. She had never thought Gu Li was so attached to her. Was he really? 

  She couldn't believe it. 

  As if sensing her disbelief, Brother Wang told her 

  "He had always taken you as his younger brother. He still cares for you like an Elder Brother." 

  Li Rui nodded her head and whispered 

  "I won't ever forget that, Brother Wang."

  Brother Wang smiled and finally closed his eyes to rest. 

  Li Rui was feeling very emotional. So after she was assured that all the shadow guards had been treated, the first thing she did was to find Gu Li.

  Gu Li was inside the old master's tent with Xi Ying and other physicians. 

  "Everything is alright."

  Gu Li assured the two physicians who were scared unlike the old physicians. 

  The two physicians nodded their heads. 

  At the same time, Li Rui stepped inside the tent. 

  Seeing his wife, Xi Ying immediately walked in her direction leaving everything. She was finally free after treating everyone. 

  "Rui, are you done?"

  Li Rui nodded her head softly. 

  Then she looked towards Gu Li and said 

  "Everyone is fine."

  Gu Li heaved a sigh of relief. 

  She had wanted to say more to him, however, before she could, Gu Li spoke 

  "You should go and rest. You didn't have much rest because of this mess."

  "I agree."

  Xi Ying said immediately. 

  Li Rui sighed as she looked towards the old master. She had wanted to say that now it was her turn to stay beside the old master. 

  As if everyone knew what she was going to say, the old physician, Gu Li as well as Xi Ying said in a chorus.

  "You are going to rest."

  She looked at them with surprise filled eyes and then blinked as she was dragged out of the ttent by Xi Ying to rest.
