Half a day later, the originally bright sky began to become a little dim.
Three figures walked out of the mansion, one in front and two behind, heading outside.
"So full and delicious. This is much better than ours!" Yingshao, who looked satisfied, said with satisfaction as she touched her slightly bulging belly.
Gu Zheng led them to walk quietly on the street. At this time, there were very few people on the street. A curfew was always enforced here. After a while, except for some people, most of them had gone home.
Now all he thinks about is the place of sacrifice, because he and Ming Xingcai have been there for more than ten years, and they are probably already on their way. I really don’t know how the other party is doing now.
"Hey, it won't work if I don't go!" Thinking of Xingba's vague hint, Gu Zheng didn't understand what the other party meant. Even if he didn't say it, he would go there himself.
He agreed to Xingba on the spot, but Xingba didn't let him go now. Instead, he asked Gu Zheng to rest for a few days, because until now, it didn't make much difference whether he went early or late.
Rejecting the other party's kind arrangement, Gu Zheng prepared to take Yingshao and the others out of the city.
The identities of Yingshao and Luo Xin were not discriminated against by the higher-ups, but the ordinary residents walking among them, and even the servants in the mansion, looked at them with hatred.
Here, everyone can identify themselves as not human!
After fighting for so long, the hatred has been engraved in their bones. As long as the other party is a monster, they all want the other party to die! Even if it is a monster on their own side!
"Sir Elder! You finally came out!"
While walking, an anxious voice suddenly came from the side.
Gu Zheng took a closer look and saw that it was Sun Hu who he had rescued earlier. When he saw him, he remembered that he had asked him to bring back those little guys, and he had almost forgotten about them.
"Is it you? What a coincidence!"
"Elder, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me quickly. Your little pet is in trouble!" Sun Hu shouted anxiously.
"What's the trouble? Take me to see it quickly!" Gu Zheng's face hardened and he said in a deep voice. He had the Elder Token. How could anyone dare to ignore it and provoke the pet he brought back?
The group of people, led by Sun Hu, hurried out of the city gate. Along the way, Sun Hu also told Gu Zheng the origin of the matter.
Originally, after Sun Hu came back that time, he had the elder's token and some people did not dare to make things difficult. Later, Sun Hu found a temporary place for them outside and entrusted the patrol army to help take care of it.
Of course, he had already informed Xingba before this and got his consent.
In order that they would not be disturbed, he hung the tokens of Gu Zheng on them.
They had their own things left behind, so they were not worried about quenching their hunger. Moreover, the patrols did not ask them, and would deliberately avoid them when they saw them, so as to reduce harassment to them.
The green night bird took her children to rest in that territory all day long. Occasionally, she would take the three little guys to wander towards the distant forest, but she would also come back, and she would consider that place her own for the time being.
's residence.
Next, before Sun Hu could continue to perform the task, he noticed the other side's small movements and did not go out again.
However, when the war came, for their safety, Sun Hu placed them in an empty market in the city. During the war, all activities in the city stopped and everyone stayed at home.
Originally, we planned to take them out after the war was over, but the Blue Night Bird also understood human nature and settled down safely inside.
However, just because ordinary people couldn't take to the streets doesn't mean that those soldiers couldn't take to the streets. An elder's grandson happened to pass by when he was rushing to the battlefield and saw the blue night bird at a glance.
He immediately liked it, but the elder token on it blocked the opponent several times. Later, Sun Hu found out that he often harassed Bi Yeniao again. Even if he told him, it was of no use. Instead, he was reprimanded several times.
This time, just after the battle, Sun Hu was lucky enough to survive and resettled Biyeniao to a more remote place. What he never expected was that the man also followed him.
The other party just started to want to have a good relationship with Bi Yeniao, at least it was harmonious, but in recent days, Sun Hu found that the other party's patience had been worn away, and it seemed that he could no longer bear it. He happened to hear that a guest was coming, and the other party
After leaving the city gate, he rushed towards the Blue Night Bird.
Sun Hu inquired a little and knew that Gu Zheng was here, and he was waiting outside for them to come out.
So when Gu Zheng and the others just left, Sun Hu approached them.
As they left, the city gate behind them was completely closed. After sunset, no one could open it without a warrant.
The group of people hurriedly walked towards the side. Just above a stick of incense, they could hear a threatening roar, which was the cry of the blue night bird.
"I'll leave first, you guys should hurry up and follow me!"
Gu Zheng's expression changed, and in a flash, he disappeared on the spot.
A few kilometers away, four people were surrounding a huge blue night bird. Among them, there was a huge black net in the sky to prevent the green night bird from jumping over the wall and escaping from the sky.
Outside the four people, there was a young man in rich white robes, but he wore a bronze helmet on his head, which was a bit nondescript.
"Be careful and try not to hurt each other. If the elder comes back and sees you, I will blame you!"
"I understand, young prince."
One of them said in a deep voice, but his eyes were fixed on the blue night bird in front of him to prevent the opponent from attacking. It would be embarrassing if he was injured due to distraction.
The four of them are all at the peak of immortality. It would be easy to kill or subdue them, but it would be difficult if they were not injured.
"I want to get cyan, don't get it wrong!"
The young prince outside looked at the arrogant Jade Night Bird and stepped back. His cultivation level was only in the early stage of immortality. It was estimated that a non-surprised attack from the other party would be enough for him.
As he spoke, he looked back, for fear that someone would come over.
Originally, he had enough time to use force, but when he heard that an elder was coming back today, he felt that it was his master who was coming back. However, the little green night bird matched his skills very well. If he had
He has been his biggest help since he was raised since childhood.
This is why I have to do this next time. Because of my previous actions, I am afraid that the other party will not agree. I will strike first and forcefully sign the link. This will be worth it even if I am imprisoned for hundreds of years.
The three smaller birds, which had grown in size, could no longer hide on the big bird. They could only hide under the body and rely on their mother's wings to block each other's attacks.
However, the seemingly threatening Red Sect has no deterrent effect on them at all. On the contrary, how not to hurt them is their biggest headache.
They have been here for most of the day, and they can only pray that the elder will stay in the city for a night, because the Biye Bird in front of them is already a little tired, and if they delay for a little longer, the opponent will no longer be able to hold on.
But the opportunity came faster than they imagined. Faced with the harassment from the four of them, Bi Yeniao's energy was obviously consumed faster. As he turned around, his body shook, and a little bird leaked out from under its wings.
That touch of blue wings was exactly the bird the young prince requested. The eyes of a person standing on the side lit up. He strode over and stretched out his hand to grab the green bird.
As for the little bird's beak that had pecked at his palm, he didn't take it to heart at all. Its attack power could not break through his defense, but the green night bird had no idea and was still wary of the enemy in front of him.
Protect your children.
But at this moment, when the human was about to catch the blue bird, a hand grabbed his wrist. Before he could react, the whole person rose into the air and fell into the black net above.
above.
The black net suddenly shrank and surrounded him, and countless black thorns stabbed at him from above.
Fortunately, his behavior was still there, and a layer of light rose up from his body, blocking the black thorn from him.
"Put me down quickly!" Although he was temporarily blocked, the light shield outside his body kept saying less, and the magic power in his body leaked out like running water. He couldn't hold on for much longer.
As soon as he finished speaking, the black net let go of him, and he turned over and stood on the ground. Only then did he have the opportunity to look at this sudden person.
He stood there tall and straight, like a mountain peak, and the blue night bird was already hiding behind him.
A pair of black eyes were looking at them coldly. The moment they met, he subconsciously turned his eyes away. At that moment, his heart beat rapidly, as if he was afraid of the other party from the bottom of his heart.
.
"Zhizhi"
The few little birds flapped their wings, jumped onto Gu Zheng's shoulders, and kept chirping, while the little birds kept gathering into a ball with their little heads.
"Who are you, and why are you harassing my pet!" Gu Zheng raised his hand and stroked the bird on his shoulder, and said calmly to the people in front of him.
This made the people on the opposite side a little embarrassed. If they didn't know the other party's identity, the token representing the elder was still hanging on the blue night bird, but if they wanted to force the other party's little pet, it was simply
He blatantly robbed the opponent and was stunned for a moment.
"I'm sorry, Elder. Junior Xing Yunxing is a relative of the patriarch. I heard that these little pets are ownerless things. The elder specially kept them for us juniors to test us, so I came here.
You see they haven't been hurt at all." Jinpao squeezed up from behind and said to Gu Zheng with his hands full of respect.
Although he has Xing Ba as his support, he also knows that if you really make a mistake, he will not recognize you, even his own daughter, let alone others.
"There is no such thing as being without a master. You can go back. If we see someone coming to make trouble next time, don't blame me for being angry!" Gu Zheng snorted coldly. He knew it was the other party's excuse, but he didn't pass it off.
Compare with each other more.
On the one hand, the other party seemed to be a relative of Xingcai. On the other hand, I didn't see any scars on Biyeniao, but he was just a little frightened. Otherwise, even with his identity, I would have to look good to the other party.
"Thank you, Elder. I will definitely keep it in mind in the future! And I will warn everyone." Sensing the vague murderous intention of the other party, a drop of cold sweat fell from Xing Yunxing's forehead, and he quickly said with assurance.
"Get out of here quickly!" Xing Yunxing whispered to a few people around him. His plan failed, and it was just a little bit short. What a pity.
However, he did not have too many worries. He had no fate with the other party. If he really dared to rob him, then Xingba would kill his relatives without Gu Zheng's intervention. This was why he had been friendly and wanted to influence Xiaoniao before, but only on this day did he take action.
s reason.
Because I liked it too much, I was prepared to be punished.
As they left, Bi Yeniao behind him also calmed down and gently rubbed Gu Zheng's waist.
She has not awakened her spiritual intelligence, and in the future, she will not awaken and become a human body unless there is a great opportunity, but this does not mean that the other party is stupid, the instinct of the monster still exists.
After calming them down a little, three figures from a distance flew towards this side, it was Yingshao and the others.
"Ahhhhh"
As soon as she got closer, Yingshao suddenly screamed and pointed at the bird on Gu Zheng's shoulder.
"What's going on?" Sun Hu asked with some confusion as he looked at the scream.
Could it be that three little birds scared him?
However, Luo Xin now understood it a little bit and said helplessly.
"Don't be alarmed or weird, Yingshao is just happy to see the bird."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yingshao rushed towards Gu Zheng, but when she got close to Gu Zheng's chest, she stopped and looked at those little birds with excitement, as if she saw something strange.
thing.
The few birds didn't feel any fright. Seeing her body so close, the boldest green bird jumped on top of her head.
"Giggle, sir, what are their names? They are so cute!" Yingshao felt the softness on her head and giggled. This was the first time she had seen such a cute creature.
"This is Xiao Qing. Did you see it? The green color on the tail is the most eye-catching. The ones on my shoulders are Xiao Hong and Xiao Lan!" Gu Zheng really didn't know their names, but when he saw their tails, he had an idea and directly said
Simply give them names.
"Hello, Xiaolan, Xiaohong, Xiaoqing, and Biglan, Hongqing, how are you?" Yingshao greeted them with a smile. After seeing the Biye Bird on the side, she looked at each other's tail and also
Say hello to him very smartly.
"She is their mother, her name is Xiaoye!" Gu Zheng was amused when he heard such an awkward name, so he corrected her.
"Oh, it turns out to be Sister Xiaoye!" Yingshao leaned towards Bi Yeniao, stretched out her hand and wiped her head.
"I remember this very clearly, but you can't just call me sister when you see someone!" Luo Xin muttered in a low voice.
Gu Zheng took the jade pendant off his body, checked that the things given to him were sufficient, and asked Yingshao to play with them.
Luo Xin also took out some things and prepared to build several simple camps here.
After Sun Hu helped, he went back. Even if he couldn't enter the city, he would find a place to rest.
Three days later, everything here was demolished, Gu Zheng said to them helplessly.
"Do you hear me? If there is any danger, activate this thing immediately so that I can put you all away."
"We will be obedient and won't cause you any trouble!" Yingshao smiled sweetly at Gu Zheng, with three little birds on her head and shoulders.
On the backs of both of their hands, there was a blue light spot in the center of the backs of their hands. Once activated, their bodies were immediately sucked back into the tripod tower.
Originally, Gu Zheng was going to settle them here and go get the so-called sacrificial place alone, but Yingshao disagreed and even Luo Xin was unwilling to stay here because they were too scared here.
Due to Gu Zheng's protection, they didn't even dare to leave the gate.
Originally, Gu Zheng would not take them with him. After hearing Xingba's introduction, the threat was too high. Who knows if there is anything strange inside now. He couldn't guarantee that he would be able to get in. He had already done everything.
Be prepared to fail.
But at the critical moment, Yingshao took out a strange blue magic weapon from her jade pendant and handed it to Gu Zheng.
That thing has a pagoda-like shape on top, and a tripod-like top covering the four corners below. What's even more amazing is that although it is a magic weapon, it can be used separately.
After some research by Gu Zheng, it turns out that the top one only has the shape of a three-story pagoda, which can trap some demons inside. Although it only has a simple suppression function, it will be even more difficult to get out.
The blue cauldron below can emit a dense mist, which can be integrated with the pagoda to refine the people inside, and it can also be released to confuse other people's consciousness.
And both of them can release a defensive magic weapon, but overall, the function of trapping people is the most powerful, and the others seem to be auxiliary.
Luo Xin even went to the tower herself to describe her feelings inside in order to follow Gu Zheng.
Once inside the pagoda, 90% of the body's cultivation level has been reduced. Basically, it can only maintain its own actions and cannot do anything else. It is simply a huge prison, and it can only wait in vain for the control of the pagoda owner.
But it's big enough inside. According to Luo Xin, if it was crowded, it could accommodate nearly half a million people in total. I really don't know why it was built so big.
This also gave them the opportunity. Gu Zheng could completely contain them and a group of human beings. By putting away the tripod tower, he could keep them safe.
But if Gu Zheng dies, they won't be able to last long inside, and they may die too. If the magic weapon is destroyed, they will die too, and their fate is all in Gu Zheng's hands.
They really risked their lives to compete with Gu and not stay here.
As for the opinions of Xiaoye and the others, they can be ignored. Since there is a tower, they can just take it with them.
However, it is indeed a bit troublesome for them to ask Gu Zheng to suck them in personally. If it is too late, their danger will be higher.
But there was nothing he could do. He was putting them here without anyone watching. Gu Zheng was really afraid that someone would be thinking about them.
In a few days, Gu Zheng simply performed sacrifices, mastered the combination of the tripod pagoda, and collected it, but found that he could put the pagoda above in a special state, which was in line with his wishes.
Time is tight, the sooner you get out, the better, and you also have to go to Black Dragon City, the only place where you can find the key to human sacrifice.
In other words, if you don't have that thing, you absolutely can't get in.
"Okay, let's go find the Star Clan leader and leave here now!" Gu Zheng led them towards the cornerstone village.
