Gu Zheng listened to what the other party said and felt the hope in his eyes. He did not speak, but pondered.
"Senior, we will never lie. We can swear to God that once you help us and lift our restrictions, it also means that we betrayed them, and they will never bypass us."
Seeing that Gu Zheng was still unmoved, the sixth sister over there also became anxious and said to him quickly.
Gu Zheng still didn't reply, seemingly still deep in thought.
"Senior, you didn't say you wanted to know about them. Although we don't know much, we still know some things. We can only tell them if our restrictions are lifted." The second child said anxiously, obviously not wanting to give up the little hope in front of him.
Gu Zheng glanced at him sideways and sneered in his heart. For such a simple question, Gu Zheng didn't even bother to answer him.
"Second brother, stop talking." The elder brother immediately interrupted the second brother and said with a solemn expression.
"Senior, what conditions do you have to save us? As long as you can rescue us from the demon clan and lift the restriction, the lives of the six of us brothers and sisters will be sold to you."
Among them, he is considered older and has more experience than them, and he speaks to the point.
You decide the conditions, and you can do whatever you want, because fundamentally, they are just prisoners, and there is no freedom to set conditions. Even if you are loyal to the other party for life, the other party will still have to consider whether they want you.
"Okay, if I had said this earlier, let's stop talking in circles." Gu Zheng suddenly clapped his hands and said.
Of course I have my own ideas. I don't want such a weak guy, and I can't take them with me, so I can't agree to the previous conditions.
"The conditions are very simple. If I can access the restrictions in your body, then you can't help but tell me everything you know. From today on, within ten years, you will temporarily obey her orders around you. But what do they ask you to do?
, you have to do it, even if the front is a mountain of swords, a sea of fire, or an abyss, you have to jump down, how about it."
At this time, Gu Zheng pointed at Shuang'er who was standing aside and raised his eyebrows at them.
Shuang'er, who was watching the excitement on the side, couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Gu Zheng pointing at her. How could she be involved in this and ask them to be loyal to her for ten years?
Of course Gu Zheng has his own thoughts on this. Although Shuang'er is barely strong enough to protect himself, he can't let him do some things alone. He will find a few subordinates for him to help her. It is estimated that ten years later, when she
There is no need for these people anymore.
Gu Zheng was really worried about his friends. He had no choice but to be cruel, especially towards his friends.
"But don't worry, she is much more powerful than you. All of you together can't beat the opponent's little finger. You just deal with some things that are inconvenient for her to handle, do some miscellaneous tasks, and remind her of some things at critical moments.
"Gu Zheng said again.
Because everyone has bad qualities, which cannot be eliminated at all. If you want him to be devoted to you for the rest of his life, unless you are extremely kind to him, and the other person's character is absolutely qualified, or if you give you a little bit of trouble along the way, it will cause harm.
A lot of losses. : :
And if you use other methods to imprison the other party, what is the difference between it and the demon clan? At most, you can make them obey your words for a while, but they may be betrayed again at any time.
Ten years can almost maintain the loyalty of the majority of the other party, and at least give them absolute freedom, so that they can do things wholeheartedly.
"We do."
Everyone said with joy, this condition was so good that they couldn't believe it.
"As long as senior helps me lift the restriction in my body, no matter what method I use, I promise to be unconditionally loyal to this lady within ten years and serve as her devout servant. If I violate my oath, my soul will be destroyed. I swear this.
"The eldest brother immediately faced the two moths. At the same time, marks were blurred in the air in his hands. As the last sound disappeared, they turned into a stream of light and shot into Shuang'er's body.
This is a solemn oath. Once it is violated, Shuang'er does not need to do anything, and he will be turned into an idiot. Of course, the prerequisite is that the restriction in the body is lifted.
He understood clearly that this lady was stronger than them. Although it was a pity not to follow Gu Zheng, they had no better choice. They felt particularly grateful that Gu Zheng did not kill them.
As soon as he finished speaking, the third child followed him again, and the same stream of light entered Shuang'er's body.
Everyone swore a poisonous oath without hesitation, basically stipulating that they would not betray Shuang'er within ten years.
"Very good, let me check it out for you."
Seeing this, Gu Zheng quickly took a few steps forward, grabbed the wrist of the boss in front, and the immortal energy slowly passed through, slowly flowing into the opponent's body.
But as soon as he probed in, his originally relaxed face gradually disappeared. His face now became serious and solemn.
The other giant whales turned around and looked at Gu Zheng, wondering if there was any way he could lift the restriction.
After a full cup of tea, Gu Zheng put down the boss's arm and said with a solemn expression.
"It seems that the other party just wants you to die. Now that the poison has covered your body, it is estimated that by tonight at the latest, the restraints in your body will break out, and you will die by then."
"What!"
This news was beyond their expectations, and their faces changed drastically. They thought that the other party wanted to control them permanently, but they didn't expect that they would die so quickly. It was beyond their expectations.
Doesn't it mean that they will be abandoned just after they complete this task? They have no value at all. This is too cruel.
Thinking of this, they felt chilled in their hearts, but they immediately felt happy. If the senior they met had not been captured by the other party, they would have died.
"Sir, help me." The boss said tremblingly, feeling a little scared when he thought that he would not survive tomorrow.
"Don't worry, because I found something weird in your body. Did they have any other special and strange behavior when they restricted you?" Gu Zheng looked into his eyes and said.
"Yes, yes, when the opponent used the restraint, he drew a pattern in the air. Although the opponent was very fast, I remembered it in a daze." Before the boss could answer, the fourth child on the side hurriedly said.
"You give a rough sketch and I'll take a look." Gu Zheng motioned to the other party to come out. He wanted to take a look and make sure.
"Like this, like this, I only remember this much." The fourth child stretched out his finger and gestured strangely back and forth in the air, as if an insect was twisting randomly in the air, but after just scratching for a short time, the fourth child's face turned red.
said.
"That's enough. You take off your shirt and I'll verify it for the last time." Gu Zheng nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said to the boss in front of him.
Without saying a word, the boss took off his shirt, revealing his fine body.
Gu Zheng raised his left hand, and a white light shot out from his palm, turning into a ball of white light and covering the opponent's abdomen.
As the white light shines, blood-colored lines slowly emerge from the middle of the abdomen, and a very complex pattern appears on it. The strange thing is that the pattern on it is still twisting, and it is obvious that there are bulges on it.
One by one, it seems like something is being transported towards the center.
When others looked at it, they felt as if a demon was constantly wailing in front of them, begging them to give them some food, and they couldn't help but get closer, wanting to reach out and comfort it.
"upbraid"
A thunderous sound rang in everyone's ears, and they suddenly woke up from the confused situation. They saw themselves approaching their eldest brother unknowingly. Thinking of the weird thing just now, cold sweat broke out on their heads.
It flowed out, but they didn't expect that they couldn't resist just one pattern.
They didn't know that this was actually because Gu Zheng had blocked most of the power above, and Shuang'er had already held it down with one hand, otherwise the two of them would have come over involuntarily.
The white light on Gu Zheng's hand faded again, and the strange group disappeared.
The boss unconsciously touched his abdomen with his hand. Now there was nothing on it. It felt like his own skin. There was nothing strange about it, as if everything was just an illusion.
Just now, he himself fell into the same state as before, but was controlled by Gu Zheng and could not move.
"Put on your clothes. I roughly know your situation. If I'm not wrong, did I treat you to a cup of tea when you started playing?" Gu Zheng ignored their anxious looks and started slowly.
He took out several small cups from his hand.
There was some emerald green liquid inside. When it was taken out, a special aroma of wine filled the air, making everyone couldn't help but take a few sips.
"Senior, you are right. When I was on a mission, a man with a copper face mask made us all drink a cup of tea and taught us how to practice it. But at that time, we didn't feel there was anything wrong. It was just an ordinary cup of tea.
Chai Shui." The boss here took out another set of clothes and asked quickly.
"There is nothing wrong with drinking that glass of water alone, but if it is mixed with some special blood spell, it means that you are all being sacrificed. By night, your body, including all your cultivations, will be condensed into a blood ball.
, for those who practice certain skills, it is a great tonic." Gu Zheng snorted coldly, and his first reaction was to remember that the protector took out the blood cell.
But it is definitely not the mysterious elder who wants their blood sacrifice. Their strength is of no use to him. It can only be said that it may be his disciples or the like who have the same skills as him and need this thing.
Such a cruel way of death made the youngest Sixth Sister turn pale. She felt that she had been frightened more today than in her previous life. Thinking that she would turn into a ball of blood in less than a day, she couldn't help but plead.
, "Senior, we have all sworn an oath, please save us quickly."
That restriction was also the blood curse mentioned by Gu Zheng, but I didn't expect it to be so cruel.
"Don't worry, you've got enough time. Drink this glass of green wine first, because this spell is too vicious, and the blood curse among you lasts too long. If you don't take some protection, I'm afraid you will die together with the blood curse."
The seven quilts in front of Gu Zheng automatically floated in front of them.
Liu Mei drank it without any hesitation, and the others followed closely and drank it in one gulp. PC::/
"Okay, I'll treat you first, Shuang'er. As a protector, you promise not to let anyone disturb me." Gu Zheng came to the middle of the courtyard and said to them respectively.
Seeing Gu Zheng calling him, the boss took a deep breath and walked over with the same solemn expression.
"Relax, don't act like you're dying heroically. Don't worry, you won't die. It's just a little painful. Don't say you can't bear it." Gu Zheng saw this and said with a smile.
Although this kind of blood curse is a demonic method that can only be used by the ancient demon clan, it is too harmful to nature and has been lost for a long time. Even if someone knows it, they will not use it easily because it is too damned by God. That period of chaos cannot be compared with this time.
Compare
It was already past noon, but in the living room of Xu Mansion, Xu Jing was walking back and forth in the living room.
"Sir, Mr. Gu is still in the courtyard, but his apprentice is still guarding the door and no one is allowed in." At this time, a figure hurriedly came from outside and said to Xu Jing above.
"I know, let's go down. Always pay attention to Mr. Xu's movements. If he comes out, report to me immediately." Xu Jing waved his hand in annoyance and said to Xu Wei, who had been serving Gu Zheng.
"yes!"
Xu Wei didn't talk nonsense. He has been there seven or eight times since morning. It can be seen that the owner of the house was impatient and hurried out. He still had to guard the door, waiting for news about Mr. Gu.
"Master, don't be so impatient. You haven't eaten a bite of food yet. I've asked the kitchen to stew some chicken soup. You can eat a little and don't get anxious." The eldest lady, who had just arrived here not long ago, said gently.
Said above.
"I really want to eat, but how can I eat it now?" Xu Jing turned around twice again, then sat down on the chair behind him, keeping his hands on the table next to him, and said helplessly.
"What's going on? You've been looking gloomy since you came back yesterday. Has something bothered you again?" The eldest lady thought about the constant flow of people coming in and out from morning to morning. It seems that something big happened again, otherwise it wouldn't happen.
So many people gathered here again.
"Do you know that Luo Wei was selected by the immortal master as his apprentice?" Xu Jing asked.
"Of course I know. When Xu Gu and the others came back, they told many people. Now everyone in the house knows that even at noon, they got Luo Wei drunk and told them not to forget them in the future."
At this point, the eldest lady thought of the drunken Luo Wei who met her halfway and kowtowed to her, talking nonsense, which made her laugh a little.
"Still laughing, that immortal master has already secretly left, leaving all the things that King Wei gave him when he left. King Wei has already sent someone to apologize." Xu Jing looked at his wife who was still having fun there,
He couldn't help but rub his eyes and said speechlessly.
"Ah, how could this happen? Is the immortal master angry? Didn't he win yesterday?" Da Fu then understood the seriousness of the matter and couldn't help but ask.
"How do I know? I don't know what Luo Wei will think after hearing this, but it's not important. The important thing is that we have to deal with the Ye family, and this time it will be a headache." Xu Jing sighed and said.
The court will go to court tomorrow, and I am afraid that the Ye family will launch a full-scale attack. At noon, they have been discussing how to deal with each other, and they have already reached some consensus. They must gather all the strength as soon as possible and unite them all. And they also find
Some other responses, hoping to delay it for a while.
We can't help but deal with the crisis inside, as well as the crisis outside.
"No matter what, your health is more important." At this time, a maid outside brought the chicken soup arranged by the eldest lady. It took it and personally took it to Xu Jing.
"Sir Xu, there is an urgent report from the palace. Your Majesty is in critical health. Please ask all important ministers to enter the palace immediately." Just as Xu Jing was bringing the chicken soup to his mouth, wanting to take a sip of chicken soup, a figure suddenly came in and said.
"What!" The chicken soup in Xu Jing's hand immediately overturned and spilled on the ground. He was shocked.
"Prepare the sedan and enter the palace." Xu Jing, who had recovered his senses, ignored the leftovers on his body and shouted to the servants below.
In the courtyard, Gu Zheng was sitting on one side, while the six eldest brothers next to him were talking about the information they knew with tired faces.
The other five people were adjusting their breath on the ground. Eliminating the blood curse almost drained them of all their energy, and they wished they could pass out. However, they all survived in the end, and the blood curse in everyone's body had been eliminated.
"I'm really ashamed. Because the few of us have entered too little, except for knowing two immortal cultivators who were also held hostage, we have never seen the true faces of the two people who usually give orders, and their voices have also changed slightly.
Even if they appear in front of them, they probably won't recognize them." The boss said with a look of shame, saying everything he could say, including his own guesses.
"Nothing, your information is enough. At least you can know how the other party hides it. According to you, most of the people they arrest will not remove blood stains, and many people have been coerced in the past. This is enough.
, As for the hidden cave you mentioned, I will definitely look back and see if I can rescue a few more people." After hearing this, Gu Zheng smiled calmly.
"I'm afraid they will suffer such damage. It is said that there are several people who were caught by them and would rather die than surrender. They are being tortured inside. It is said that they may be executed tonight." The boss sighed. It is a pity for them.
Not to mention saving them, you can't even save yourself.
It seemed that those two people could not protect themselves. This time the other party seemed to be abandoning that stronghold. No wonder there were many more people packing their things when they left there. Otherwise, they would not have done this.
"You guys take a rest here first. I have something to do here and I need to leave first. I'll give you these things to speed up your recovery. It's going to be rough these days, so don't go out and run around." Gu Zheng was about to say something,
Suddenly he felt that the backup plan he had left for Cao Fei had been activated. He hurriedly left a jade bottle and said to them.
"Shuang'er, you will call Ah Shai and the others in later. I won't come back, so try not to go out again. Remember to pay more attention to safety."
After Gu Zheng gave them instructions, he immediately ran out of the courtyard and ran towards the place where Cao Fei died.
