If there is nothing wrong, the prisoners escorted by Haiming and others will also be detained here, and at the same time, the corresponding points will also be added to the Guzheng tribe.
"Let's go over and have a look!"
Gu Zheng said decisively that it was very likely that the little monkey had encountered something, otherwise he would not have left this position.
A few people walked quickly along the perimeter. In just half a stick of incense, with the old bird leading the way, they turned a few corners and saw the little monkey.
What made Gu Zheng even more confused was that he actually saw Hai Ming and Ren Ling here, followed by the demon leader, standing beside them and saying something angrily.
At this time, they were blocking the entrance to a camp. The little monkey was glaring at the man, not wanting to give in. Ren Ling was pointing at the man inside and angrily saying what was going on!
There was a middle-aged man with a calm face in the camp inside, followed by a few familiar guys, who were some of the people captured by Gu Zheng.
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and the atmosphere became more and more tense, and it seemed that a fight was about to break out at the next moment, Gu Zheng immediately shouted from a distance.
"stop!"
Two groups of people looked over one after another.
"Master, you came just in time!" Hai Ming looked at this, his face showed a proud look, he ran towards Gu Zheng and complained.
"That guy actually wants to take our prisoners away from here. It's really too much."
"That's right, you said you can take your own villagers back." Ren Ling also said with a look of dissatisfaction.
In their opinion, this was their prisoner. It was too much to take him away in front of him before he left.
Besides, there are no procedures, you can just take it away as you say.
Gu Zheng didn't ask about their complaints and walked directly to the camp gate and looked at the man in front of him.
As soon as he arrived, the other party looked at him strangely, as if he were looking at a dead person.
"Master Gu, when I was waiting for you over there, I suddenly saw someone calling your name here, and I met your apprentice. Seeing that the other person seemed to be bullying them, I rushed over, but I just had a confrontation with him.
, you showed up." The little monkey quickly explained the process next to him.
Gu Zheng nodded, indicating that he understood.
This person seemed to be the ancestral god who attacked his village. Although his face seemed calm and he didn't seem to care about what was said here, his eyes really disgusted Gu Zheng.
"You are the ancestral god of Xifeng Village. I think for the sake of your own life, I suggest you give up on your village. Even if you don't die this time, you will still encounter something more dangerous than this next time." This ancestral god.
He spoke suddenly.
"What do you mean? Threatening me?" Gu Zheng squinted and looked at the other person and said.
"What do I mean? Don't you know that since you took over this village, you have messed with people you shouldn't have messed with. It's just that the rules can't deal with you. If you go up, there will be something more dangerous than this.
It will happen again, you are stronger, can you be stronger than them? Even if you change to another village, this kind of thing will not happen." The ancestor god said calmly, his light tone seemed to be telling something.
"Haha, I want to see who can take my life, but no matter who stands in front of me or deliberately provokes me, then don't blame me for being rude." Gu Zheng heard this and immediately sneered back.
He thought quickly in his mind and quickly locked onto the back of the small ball. He and I had taught him skills at the Ancestral God Pavilion once, and there was nothing else besides this, not to mention that it also involved Xifeng Village.
"A lot of confidence, I hope you can say this again in the future." The ancestor god's eyes turned cold, and then he said to behind him.
"You guys stay here for a while. I'll go to Nancheng to pick you up. Until then, just stay in there."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Gu Zheng and walked out from the side.
"Master, you are so good, you scared the opponent away as soon as you showed up." Hai Ming trotted up and said flatteringly.
"Why are you bragging? Why haven't you left here yet? Where are those teams?" Gu Zheng didn't take this at all and said with a sullen face.
"They have gone back a long time ago. I am not the priest looking for me to give me something. I am just staying here. Just when I was about to leave here, I found that someone wanted to take away our prisoners." Hai Ming felt a little aggrieved.
said.
"Little fat brother, that doesn't seem to be our prisoner anymore!" Ren Ling suddenly blinked and said, as if she was being led by someone. She suddenly remembered that they had already handed over.
"That's right." Hai Ming also blinked, "I was confused."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go. This time you follow us." Gu Zhengcai didn't bother to ask about the intrigue between them and directly ordered.
A month later, in a place where mountains are relatively concentrated, dozens of towering peaks were scattered on the land. Although the scale was not very large, it still formed a small ecological circle with many rare animals.
Live happily here.
More than a dozen speeding figures descended from the sky. Gu Zheng waited until Hai Ming and others climbed out of a ship-shaped magic weapon before asking.
"Is this the place you're talking about?"
"Sister Qingxuan's magic weapon is really good, it's fast and stable inside." Hai Ming first said flatteringly towards Qingxuan, making her couldn't help but smile, and nodded quickly before the ancient dispute broke out.
"Yes, it's right here. When we separated from the main force, we stayed here for a while."
Gu Zheng looked at the lush green and vibrant scene below, and couldn't see anything unusual at all.
This Hai Ming boy was so courageous that he actually let the troops advance on their own halfway, and then he handed over the prisoners and returned, while a few of them quietly slipped out to play adventure games.
Fortunately, nothing happened and the teams returned safely.
This was because He Sheng sent someone out to inform Gu Zheng so that Gu Zheng knew the whole story. Only then did Hai Ming honestly explain the differences they discovered.
"She Qi, you lead the way outside, and the others will follow you down." Gu Zheng immediately ordered.
If Qingxuan hadn't provided a man-carrying magic weapon, it is estimated that Haiming and the others who were in the immortal stage would have been followed like little birds.
Soon everyone, led by She Qi, flew inside.
Finally, it stopped in the middle, in front of a very ordinary-looking mountain peak.
This mountain peak is neither high nor low. It looks very ordinary from the outside, but according to She Qi's perception, there is something unusual inside.
She Qi was the demon leader who had taken refuge before. He had an intuition that was unusually superior to other demons. It was he who discovered the difference.
At this time, where they were looking at, there was only a hidden cave halfway up the mountain. Although the outside was blocked by some rattan, it seemed to be half damaged now and could not be covered up at all. Hai Ming had entered through here before.
.
"Monkey, old bird, you stay alert outside and protect others. I'll go in with the others." After looking around, Gu Zheng made arrangements.
"Master, I want to go in too, and I can also provide you with some information." Hai Ming said anxiously from the side.
The last time he didn't get far enough, he was forced to drive out, which made him a little unwilling.
"Do you really want to?" Gu Zheng looked at Hai Ming and asked deliberately.
"I think, I think very much, under the leadership of the master, nothing will happen." Hai Ming nodded crazily, like a chicken pecking at rice, and said flatteringly.
"That's a good idea. Just stay here obediently. Little monkey, keep an eye on him. If I find him sneaking over, I'll ask you." Gu Zheng turned his smile and ordered to the little monkey.
"Don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on him!" the little monkey immediately replied loudly.
"That's good, you guys wait for us outside and we'll come as soon as we go." Gu Zheng took the lead and flew towards the entrance of the cave.
Qingxuan and the others also followed behind and went together.
Looking at the entrance of this very ordinary cave, some residues that have turned black are still left next to it. Although after many years, there are still traces of many times of people's construction next to it, it can still be seen that the people who came in and out at that time can still be seen here.
There must be a lot of people.
After seeing them following, Gu Zheng went in along the passage.
The passage is a bit sloping, but it is very wide once you enter. Three people walking side by side have no problem. At first, it drops almost at a forty-five degree angle. At the two ends of the wall, you can occasionally see some iron rings embedded in the wall. They should be coming up.
It can assist when needed.
Not long after going deeper, there were only some caves on both sides with nothing inside. It looked like a place where things were temporarily stored, with some debris still in the corner.
According to Haiming's snooping, this place should have been a mine before, mining red coins, but it seems to have been abandoned now.
But under She Qi's initial induction, he didn't know what was underneath. There seemed to be something slowly echoing with him, attracting She Qi, but he didn't know what it was.
As a result, a few of them wasted a lot of time here, and finally got stuck outside, because there was a kind of monster living here, with strong cultivation and no spiritual consciousness, which was very strange.
The further you walk down, the road begins to become smoother, and there are also large corners. Even the sides become wider and wider. Can you see a touch of red next to some walls? Those are low-quality stones that have no mining value.
.
They estimated that they were almost at the base of the mountain after crossing the distance. After turning a corner, a clear view suddenly opened up in front of them, and an open space of ten football fields appeared in front of them.
The entire ground is almost empty except for piles of rocks and suspected mining tools.
On the surrounding walls, there are many such holes, densely packed like a honeycomb, with no one knowing where they lead.
However, most of what Haiming and the others explored were just auxiliary roads, most of which were dead ends, but there were still more that they could not explore because there was a creature blocking the road, and they were unable to get in, so they were helpless.
to return.
What's even more weird is that when they stepped here, their spiritual consciousness could no longer penetrate too far. You must know that everything was still normal before.
"Be careful and take one path." Gu Zheng signaled to the people behind him.
Needless to say, this kind of weird thing has made them wary.
Even though they have more people and are stronger now, they still won't let down their guard.
The four people each took out their own weapons and first walked towards a somewhat damaged cave on the opposite side. The signs of damage were obviously very new and were left by Haiming and the others before.
The four people were divided into two rows, with Gu Zheng and Alder standing in front, while Xiaozi Mantian and Qingxuan stayed behind, and the two rows headed inside.
"hiss"
Not long after they entered the cave, there were several neighing sounds coming from the cave.
Although they knew that the strength of these monsters was only in the middle stage of immortals, to be honest, even if they stood in front of them and let them attack, they would not be able to penetrate their defenses.
But they don't think that this place only contains these monsters. It is unusual to see monsters here. They judge that someone must have released them here to block some people who accidentally pass by here and declare that this is their territory.
.
Some wandering ancestor gods sometimes do this and do something when they come.
Originally, Gu Zheng and the others didn't want to come over to do some extra work, but Hai Ming told himself that She Qi seemed to hear someone calling for help inside, and then there was no more news. This was why they wanted to explore, and the feeling that attracted him
It felt like it was still down there, so Gu Zheng decided to take a look and see what was inside.
Because he had a hunch that something down there seemed to have something to do with him, otherwise he would have stopped meddling in other people's business and was ready to leave. The sudden panic in his heart made him change his attention.
The four people pushed forward at an unsatisfactory speed, and soon saw a lizard-like monster in front of them. Its whole body was dark green. It was looking at this side on the wall, its eyes turning rapidly, and its mouth hurriedly speaking.
The sound became louder.
"hiss"
Deep in the passage, there were vaguely more companions responding.
This lizard was not afraid of them at all. After seeing that his warning was ineffective, he pounced towards the alder tree at the front. Judging from his size, he was the biggest threat.
Alder didn't even take out his weapon, he directly raised his fist and punched the little guy.
The poor lizard was crushed into a puddle of minced meat by the force of the fist while it was still in mid-air.
There is a huge difference in strength, so to rush forward so stupidly would not only lead to death, but also just waste their time.
"Move forward!" Gu Zheng stepped over the pool of blood and said without changing his expression.
The remaining three people didn't say much. In their opinion, it was Gu Zheng who wanted to see their skills, so he came to get involved in this muddy water.
I just hope the people here can be a little more intense, otherwise it will be too boring.
As they continued to move forward, there were more and more noises around them, and soon dozens or hundreds of lizards gathered from the side and grinned at them, but they were not as stupid as before and rushed directly towards them.
"Get away!"
Alder, who was leading the way, let go of his momentum and swept towards the passage. Suddenly, the lizards screamed. Under this terrifying momentum, they lowered themselves from the upper and side walls and kicked around with their four claws.
Down, fled towards the back, and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.
"Hehe, it's better not to waste our time with this little bit of trash." Alder chuckled, "I'll take the lead next, and I'll see if there are any other minions in front of me. It would be best if the owner of this place comes out."
Gu Zheng did not deny it, but nodded silently and let him lead the way.
I don't know if it's because of the terrifying aura of the alder tree, which is too powerful. In short, those little lizards didn't come out to cause trouble, but from time to time a strange roar came from deep in the passage.
The cave was still heading downwards, but based on the distance they had traveled, Gu Zheng had already entered the underground world.
Although this passage looks very spacious, it has obviously expanded later. The surrounding areas are full of various traces, and the piles of gravel on the ground are probably the work of those lizards.
Everyone walked slowly down the passage, and only the footsteps of a few people sounded in the passage.
As they slowly advanced, the temperature in the air became higher and higher, and a faint smell of sulfur also appeared in the air. When they reached the bottom.
A huge magma zone appeared in front of them, with an area less than one-third of the area above. A red lizard was lying on a raised stone pillar in the middle, looking at them uneasily.
In the magma, a swaying fire lotus flower was blooming, and this lizard seemed to be guarding it.
"There is such a big beast here." Alder Mu said in wonder when he saw it.
The lizard itself is not much bigger, only twice the size of the outside, but the other party's cultivation level has already reached the late Golden Immortal stage.
You have to know where this place is and how could a beast with little sanity appear.
Qingxuan clenched the weapon in his hand and walked to the side to be vigilant. He was vigilant next to him.
Mantian, on the other hand, took out a rag doll-like doll, held it in his arms, and looked behind him.
Even if they cooperated for the first time, when they saw others moving, they knew what they were going to do, and simply formed a defensive camp to protect the weakest Gu Zheng in place.
Just after he finished all this, the lizard across from him suddenly opened his mouth and neighed, and the knots on his body swelled up as if they were blowing. It seemed that the arrival of Gu Zheng and the others made him extremely uneasy.
At the back of the passage, there were countless neighing sounds, and some vibrations were also heard from behind.
"Those lizards are coming!" Mantian shouted to everyone and threw the rag doll out.
"Roar"
The rag doll flashed with gray light in the air, and its entire figure suddenly swelled to fill the cave.
At this time, it had come alive, taking heavy steps and rushing directly towards the group of lizards behind it.
Just like a wolf entering a sheep's den, those lizards are no match for it. Any attack on it will have no effect at all.
The high bulge of skin is as hard as an ordinary fairy weapon. With just a lift of one foot, it can crush a lizard to death and cause a bloody storm. Its huge body ensures that the opponent cannot break through its defense line.
"Haha, Miss Qingxuan, help me keep an eye on Mr. Gu and watch me deal with this beast." Alderwood laughed, put away the weapon in his hand, and rushed forward with bare hands.
Qingxuan nodded aside, and then moved closer to Gu Zheng, looking around cautiously, and if there were other situations, he would be the first to discover it.
