Here, after Gu Zheng disappeared into the passage, he took back his magic weapon and completely detonated the passage at the same time, making the passage completely useless and no one could use it again.
The cave was finally unable to hold up under Gu Zheng's deliberate detonation and began to collapse, sealing it along with the underground river below. Except for the entrance, it remained, but it could no longer be entered.
The figure in the passage was quickly running forward along the only road, followed closely by the sound of explosions.
"Ahhh!"
Following several loud screams, three figures suddenly jumped out from below the mountain.
"Help, Elder Gu!"
Yingshao watched herself falling from the air, hundreds of meters above the ground, and couldn't help shouting.
But at this time, Gu Zheng was still running in this direction, and there was no time to rescue him.
Yingshao watched the big tree below getting closer and closer to her. She couldn't help but close her eyes and shouted.
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"
The crackling sound kept coming from the branches, and a figure smashed countless branches and leaves from the air, and finally fell from above to below.
There was a muffled "bang" sound, and a large human-shaped pit appeared below.
"It hurts me so much!"
Yingshao climbed up from the pit below and shouted helplessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, two figures landed steadily beside her, it was Luo Xin and Elder Ye.
"Why didn't you help me? You almost scared me to death!" Yingshao said a little aggrievedly as she saw dust everywhere on her body.
"It's not too late for us. Let's clean it up quickly. Otherwise, the master will not like it if you are so dirty!" Luo Xin was also a little helpless. Who would have thought that Yingshao couldn't even control her body shape?
It fell straight down like a stone. Fortunately, it was thick-skinned and not very high, so it was fine.
As soon as Yingshao heard this, a blue light flashed in her hand, and a layer of mist appeared around her body. When the mist disappeared, all the messes disappeared.
"Rumble"
The mountain top next to them shook for a while, and at the same time, a figure also flew out from the position where they had just come out.
As soon as the figure came out, the entrance to the cave completely collapsed and was blocked.
"Are you okay? I thought I heard screaming just now."
Gu Zheng paused in the air for a moment and saw the three people below. He came to them in a flash. Looking at the strange atmosphere, he couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay. When I came down just now, I accidentally saw some flying insects, which scared me." Yingshao's face turned red and she quickly explained.
"It's okay, let's go, Elder Ye has made you suffer!" Gu Zheng was confused in his heart. He clearly remembered that not long ago, she still said she liked bugs. Why did she hate them here again? It was really incomprehensible.
However, he still told Elder Ye that in order to speed them up, he manually threw them out of the back half. Almost the tip of their noses was against the wall, and the slightest movement could cause them to collide.
"It's okay. Speaking of which, I still thank you for taking such a big risk and actually rescuing me from there. I can't thank you enough." Elder Ye looked at Gu Zheng and said with emotion. To be honest, he really planned to
Died there.
"We are all our own, so I should rescue you. As soon as I came here, a passage appeared in front of me. It seems that God asked me to rescue you, otherwise I really wouldn't be sure to escape from there.
." Gu Zheng said with a chuckle.
"What a fate! Who would have thought of that." Elder Ye hissed. He almost didn't escape, thanks to Gu Zheng knocking him unconscious.
"Master, where are we going next?" Yingshao regained her mood beside her, looked at this strange place, and asked.
"Of course I'll go to the place I've always wanted to go. Don't worry, no one will dare to bully you as long as I'm here!" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
After Gu Zheng and his party stayed for a while, under the leadership of Elder Ye, they began to move towards the cornerstone village.
However, their progress was not very fast, because when they left, there was still a war there. Even if they rushed back now, they would not be able to get close. It would be terrible if they were discovered.
On the contrary, along the ancient struggle, a mark would be left every once in a while. Although they were puzzled, they did not ask.
There were no secret sentries along the way because of the war. Gu Zheng and Elder Ye walked in front, discussing other things together.
From cultivation to the scenery outside, from what happened when Xingcai was a child, to some of the secrets here, the two of them communicated with each other.
Luo Xin in the back was having a headache. Facing the curious Ying Shao, she felt like she was taking care of a child. She was very tired. She followed her everywhere, trying different things when she had nothing to do.
And go tease those ferocious beasts.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng put a breath on her, otherwise she would have provoked a few fairy-level monsters on several occasions, and the two of them would have become each other's henchmen.
Facing that ferocious beast, she really didn't know why Yingshao turned into a little cutie when she saw him, and she had to touch him, and even went too far and even touched them. That's okay, but why must she
I was scared to death when I wanted to ride them, and I kept mumbling about how fun it was.
Get rid of it, you are a demon clan that can transform, and your potential is much greater than them.
Of course, in the end, the tiger-like beast was still ridden by Yingshao.
When he decided to take a bite of Yingshao, he saw Gu Zheng's figure, looking at it coldly from the side, and his ferocious body immediately leaned down, making Yingshao very happy.
The only good thing is that Yingshao didn't force herself on others and left after playing for a while.
Every day, Yingshao's happy voice would be heard around Gu Zheng, and a somewhat helpless voice would explain after her.
Stop and go, half a year has passed.
At this time, they were not far from Jishi Village. At this time, they were staying next to a forest. There was a gap of grassland ahead. After walking for a few days, they could reach Jishi Village.
This place, the last time it was followed by Manli
"Master, Master, there is no fighting ahead, we can go directly!" Yingshao, who volunteered to go out to investigate the situation, ran over and shouted loudly.
Gu Zheng knew that it was over a long time ago, but he didn't brush off her kindness and let her run a few times to vent her untired spirit along the way.
"You are so careless, you don't even know there is a tail behind you!" Gu Zheng shook his head and waited until they ran here before saying.
"Tail, what is a tail? Is it sister Luo Xin's tail?" Yingshao's face turned red due to excitement. She turned her head and looked behind her curiously, then ran behind Luo Xin and pointed at the little tail.
"Don't make trouble, Master, you are not talking about my tail!" Luo Xin shrank her tail under her clothes and said with a slight blush on her face.
"What on earth is that? Who else has a tail besides you?" Yingshao slowly looked at Elder Ye, as if she was talking about him.
"Don't look, you're talking about us..." Luo Xin explained weakly.
"Elder Ye, let's leave now, the other party has gone back." Gu Zheng said to Elder Ye.
The spies left quickly after seeing Gu Zheng's side, and they will probably report it soon.
The four of them moved forward again, and soon Yingshao forgot about the previous question, and went looking for some interesting things nearby with great interest.
When they quickened their pace and walked a distance away from each other, they could see the huge city wall from here, and then they saw dozens of people flying out of the city and rushing towards them.
The leader is a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face and a strong build. You can feel the righteousness at first glance. This kind of person is very reassuring and convincing at first sight.
Behind him were humans with different cultivation levels. They all looked at Elder Ye next to Gu Zheng with surprise on their faces.
"Haha, this little brother looks a little strange!" The middle-aged man here laughed as soon as he came up. He did not say hello to Elder Ye, but said to Gu Zheng.
"Uncle, I am also the first to come here. When you see me, your eyes look normal!" Gu Zheng said with slight respect to the middle-aged man in front of him.
The opponent's eyebrows are very similar to Xingcai's. Coupled with his unfathomable cultivation, it is enough to prove that the opposite person is the village chief of Jishi and Xingcai's father.
Star tyrant!
And the other party must know that he has arrived. You must know that he is sending back the token on his body. Others don't know. Doesn't he know too?
Xingba was quite satisfied with Gu Zheng's attitude, and he also regained his somewhat aggressive aura.
"Haha, it turns out it's Gu Zheng. When we first met, I didn't dare to recognize you. I heard Cai'er talk about you. You were supposed to come back together last time, but something got delayed." Xing Ba's face made people feel comfortable.
Smile and say with a smile.
"It does take some time. I will come back as soon as this is resolved." Gu Zheng moved a little to the side because the person next to Xingba had already walked over and walked towards Elder Ye.
"Who are those two?" Xing Ba looked at the two trembling people behind Gu Zheng and asked involuntarily.
"I was able to rescue Elder Ye this time, thanks to them, they are our own!" Gu Zheng turned to look at them, gave them a relieved look, and then said to Xingba.
"Okay, but this is not the place to talk. Let's go back and talk first." Xingba waved his hand and said not only to Gu Zheng, but also to others.
"Yes, patriarch!"
Soon, in a relatively large mansion, the living room was filled with all kinds of fragrant dishes. Gu Zheng was sitting on the left side of Xingba, while Yingshao and the others were already sitting at the back.
Yingshao was drooling as she looked at the dishes above. Fortunately, she got Gu Zheng's order and didn't start eating rashly. Luo Xin sat aside in a polite manner, looking at Yingshao from time to time, always afraid that the other party would do something.
It's an irrational move, but so far it's okay, but I still can't rest assured.
There were more than a dozen people around the table, and the others were all members of the Cornerstone Village with different auras, both men and women. Everyone looked at Gu Zheng with a strange look, which meant a kind of judgment, which made Gu Zheng feel a little uncomfortable.
This seems to be the core character of Jishi, but what makes Gu Zheng strange is that Xingcai does not appear here.
When the last dish was served, Xingba, who was sitting in the main seat, stood up, raised the wine glass in his hand and said.
"Gu Zheng, thank you very much for rescuing Elder Ye this time. All of us are grateful for this. I thank you on behalf of everyone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Ba drank the wine, turned the cup over, and drank without missing a drop. He didn't even have a chance to let Gu Zheng speak.
"Uncle Ba, we are all part of the same family. There is no need to express gratitude. You must know that Elder Ye loved Xingcai very much in the past. This is what I should do." When he finished drinking, Gu Zheng also stood up and smiled bitterly.
He said, while drinking down the wine in front of him.
"Haha, sit down, start, start, talk while eating, it's been such a hard journey, you're welcome!" Xingba said with a smile.
"It's started!" As soon as she heard Xingba speak, Yingshao became excited and quickly grabbed a barbecue in front of her.
"Slow down, don't be so fast, no one will compete with you." Luo Xin patted her forehead, and then said helplessly. She couldn't hear what she said. Sometimes she promised well, but she hasn't waited yet.
Feeling comfortable, he turned around and forgot about his words.
Others didn't feel angry when they saw Ying Shao's scene, because they could see through Ying Shao at a glance. Although the other party was not a human being, they still appreciated the other party's pure nature, so they didn't care about Ying Shao at all.
Seems like some irregular behavior.
Everyone followed Xingba for a while, and then some people began to ask Elder Ye how he came back.
Of course Elder Ye knew in his heart what he was doing out of kindness, but that would be a bit embarrassing, but he probably knew part of it, so he just vaguely said a few more words, and no one else knew about it anyway.
Indeed, no one had any doubts about him adding ingredients.
"Tsk tsk, did you see it? If I had known better, I would have treated Xingcai twice as well. Maybe at some point, I would be in danger, and you would have risked your life to save your life. I am right, Elder Ye!"
A person next to me joked deliberately.
"Haha, no matter what, I also had the blessing of Xingcai, otherwise I would have thought that I would never come back!" Elder Ye said happily, but his eyes glanced at Gu Zheng, and everyone smiled knowingly,
Understand what he means.
Not to mention the heated discussion surrounding Elder Ye, Gu Zheng and Xing Ba also had a pleasant conversation.
After a few chats, Gu Zheng finally couldn't help but ask the questions in his heart.
In Xingba's opinion, Gu Zheng should be the one Xingcai brought back. It is estimated that except for Elder Lei Ye and a few people, no one knows what Xingcai thinks specifically.
"Uncle Ba, why didn't I see Xingcai? Could it be that he was injured in the battle some time ago?"
"Xingcai!" When Xingcai was mentioned, Xingba's originally excited face suddenly turned a little calm.
"What's wrong? Did something happen to Xingcai?" Gu Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he felt something was wrong, so he said immediately.
"Does it mean that Xingcai left here ten years ago after Elder Ye was captured and went to the Black Dragon City deep inside?"
"Black Dragon City? What are you doing there?" Gu Zheng didn't know where Black Dragon City was. He just saw something wrong with Xingba and didn't know what was going on.
"That's right, there's nothing to hide. There was an altar underneath in the middle of our Cornerstone Village. It once enshrined a treasure. It was an extremely powerful magic weapon in itself. More importantly, it could convert black energy into a
Another kind of energy, the power is astonishing."
Gu Zheng probably understood a little bit of what Xing Ba said, and he thought that the black lightning, so powerful, turned out to be condensed with black energy.
"So, there is a permanent black energy down there?" Gu Zheng suddenly thought of this question.
"Yes, that's why we are stationed here, and we are so strong, but the most important thing is that if the treasure is lost, the deterrent to the demon clan on the opposite side will be greatly reduced, and the opponent's attacks will become so frequent." Star Ba was surprised.
He glanced at Gu Zheng, but thought that his daughter might have told him this, so he didn't think much about it.
"With that precious gourd, it can be said that it will definitely make the opponent afraid. If I accumulate it to a certain extent and use it, I will even pull down the opponent's General Zuo!"
There was a flash of anger.
They are old rivals, they know the basics of the situation, and almost no one can do anything to the other.
"Does that have anything to do with Xingcai going to Black Dragon City?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Of course it does matter. The precious gourd has been lost, and the people I sent have not returned yet. After Elder Ye was captured, Xingcai decided to go to the sacrificial place to find another treasure to enshrine, in order to let us
After becoming stronger, when I found out, she had already left Black Dragon City." Xingba raised the wine glass in his hand and said with some bitterness.
"I brought this treasure back from the sacrificial place. Of the fifty great talents, I was the only one who came back. I only brought back this one thing, and it was teleported out. As a result, I had some opportunities.
Advance to Daluo in a few years."
"And Xingcai is going alone this time, and I can't stop him!"
He would rather not have those treasures than take risks with Xingcai.
"A place of sacrifice?" Gu Zheng was stunned, and secretly thought, could there be any inheritance left by a great power here?
"It is said that this place was once the habitat of a black dragon. There were monsters here who worshiped him, and of course humans worshiped them. The black dragon did not have any discrimination and taught them all the techniques. But one day, the black dragon died for some reason.
Here, Yunmeng Swamp was formed. It is said that these mountain peaks, the land and the black energy are all the things left by the black dragon. Even now, there are still some residual demons worshiping the black dragon, believing that it is just sleeping and will wake up one day.
."
"They are so united that we collectively call them the Dark Ones."
"The demon clan has its inheritance place, and the human race also has its inheritance place. They are filled with the tombs of the once powerful people, and they have left many good things for the younger generations. However, going deep into the north is extremely risky.
All kinds of wonderful natural barriers are created naturally. If you are strong, he will be strong. If you are weak, he will still be strong. Even I, even the two peaks of the demon clan, would not dare to try to enter easily, because it is a road of death.
Road, so far, a hundred shemales have died on the way there and have not come back."
