On the way back, the sky gradually became dark, and even the air felt a bit cold, making people want to shiver.
Youyou was not as interested as before. She was silent and looked very depressed along the way.
“What time is the other person talking about? Why did your grandfather treat you like this?”
Gu Zheng looked at each other on the road. They were completely different from before, so he couldn't help but speak first to break the calm.
"I was reckless. We can't come out after dark here. We can't come out until midnight or midnight. I don't blame grandpa."
Youyou is still not in a good mood, you can hear it from her voice.
"Why?"
This made Gu Zheng curious, could monsters still appear at night, but their house was an ordinary house, and there was no formation or other cover. What was the difference between the inside and the outside when the monsters came.
But then I thought about it, the other person had lived here for who knows how many years, and it was definitely not what I thought. Could it be that there was something strange in the sky, or some other reason.
Of course he didn’t know, but Youyou didn’t answer his words, and soon when it was almost completely dark, they returned to Gu Zheng’s room.
“Mr. Gu, please don’t embarrass Youyou. It’s better not to go out at night.”
Before leaving, Youyou faced Gu Zheng again, her face full of sorrow, and she prayed to Gu Zheng.
“Okay, I promise you, I won’t go out.” Gu Zheng thought for a moment and simply agreed.
His curiosity is not too serious. If it is the other party's taboo, it is hard to tell. After all, the other party saved him.
“Thank you Mr. Gu, I’ll go down first and I’ll be looking for you tomorrow to show you around.”
Youyou left these words and left here like a gust of wind.
Gu Zheng closed the door and looked outside through the somewhat worn window.
At this time, it was extremely dark outside, and it was difficult to see clearly from a little further away. That is, except for the area at the door that could be clearly seen, everything else was pitch black.
Listening carefully outside, there was no unusual sound.
After waiting for a while, Gu Zheng shook his head. Since he had agreed to the other party, although he was curious about what was outside, he still wasn't ready to go out.
Then he took off his clothes, put on his own clothes, and put away his things. After finding that nothing was missing, he sat directly on the bed and started to look at his things.
The first thing to check is of course there are five rings left from the ring. Although I took a rough look before, I still need to look carefully. :(/
After a long while, it was confirmed that there was no problem, and then the physical examination began.
I feel like everything is normal now, but when I think of the weird thing at the end, it would be best to check it carefully.
The night passed quickly, and as the sky grew brighter, the outside gradually became lively.
The noise of children, the scolding of women, and some noises of chopping firewood are just the usual behavior of a village, just like an ordinary day on an ordinary day.
Gu Zheng also woke up from his trance. A night of examination made him aware of a series of problems in his current body.
His injuries have completely healed, and he has not lost anything such as magic weapons. Of course, his most precious Yunhuang Sword is also lying in the space. Fortunately, when he was pulled down, he packed everything he could.
It is also equipped with complete protection.
Although something is still missing, it is not important, so it doesn’t matter.
“咚咚嚚”
There was an orderly knock on the door, followed by Youyou's voice.
“Master Gu, are you awake? I’ll bring you some porridge.”
"Come in"
Gu Zheng stood up from the bed and said.
“This is the porridge I made specially for you in the morning, but”
As the door opened, Yuyou, who had put on new clothes, came in again, dragging a simple wooden plate in his hand. There was a bowl of the same wooden bowl on it, which contained fragrant fish porridge. It looked like it had just been
Cooked.
But before she finished speaking, when she saw Gu Zheng's attire at this time, she froze on the spot and looked straight at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng saw the lack of concentration in the other person's eyes and coughed heavily, which surprised the other person.
"Mr. Gu, I've lost my temper, please have a meal." The blushing Youyou immediately put down the wooden plate in his hand, without looking at Gu Zheng, and put the fish porridge in his hand on the table, then stepped aside and lowered his head.
Don't know what to think.
Gu Zheng felt like a landlord, with a beautiful maid serving food and waiting for instructions, but the house didn't seem to be in good condition.
He did not disappoint the other party's intentions. He stepped forward and picked it up directly. A unique smell of fish came to his nostrils, which whetted his appetite.
“Your porridge is good and rare.”
Gu Zheng took a sip, closed his eyes and tasted it carefully, and then said with admiration.
He didn't mean to praise the other party, but the porridge was really good. Only the fish and meat were handled superbly. You could tell at a glance that he had put in a lot of effort, even if he was not good at it. Updated the fastest

"This has been my specialty since I was a child. You drink it quickly. After you drink it, I will take you out to see it. It was indeed a bit late yesterday."
Youyou’s small eyes were bent into slits, and you could barely see them. She watched Gu Zheng eat big mouthfuls, and then said.
“Okay, let’s go.”
After three or two mouthfuls, Gu Zheng poured it all into his mouth and swallowed it. Then he threw the bowl aside, landed it firmly in the wooden plate, and said.
Youyou's face was as bright as a flower, and she led Gu Zheng out without tidying up.
“That’s my uncle. He hasn’t gone to work yet. He usually only comes back late at night.”
“That’s Xiaoye’s family over there. They are the last to eat, and they always wait until everyone else has finished before eating.”
Youyou became cheerful again and kept talking in detail, while Gu Zheng smiled and echoed from time to time.
Among those people, he also saw the people on the fishing boat yesterday. When they looked at Gu Zheng, they did not have the strange eyes yesterday. Some of them nodded at Gu Zheng in a friendly manner, as if to welcome him, but most of them did not.
He looked at Gu Zheng indifferently.
From the eyes of the other party, Gu Zheng felt disgust, a kind of hatred, and wanted to drive him out, but he didn't seem to have offended them. You know, it was his first time here.
In short, it looks like a very normal, but very, very exclusive small village.
“Grandpa, you haven’t gone out yet?”
They were walking here when a person walked up unexpectedly in front of them. Youyou's eyes lit up and you pounced on him again.
“Wait a minute, but I have something to do now.”
Youyou, her grandfather, who is the village chief here, said with a straight face, but his eyes were looking at Gu Zheng.
“I wonder what the village chief’s instructions are?” Gu Zheng looked at the other party’s unkind eyes and didn’t pay much attention. Instead, he took the initiative to ask.
"What's the matter? It's very simple. Outsiders are not welcome in our village, so you'd better leave as soon as possible." The village chief said coldly.
“Grandpa, how could you do this?” Youyou stopped and complained with some annoyance.
"Shut up, don't get involved. It would be nice if you could save the other party. Now the other party must leave here, otherwise the next sacrifice will come and something goes wrong, and you and I can't afford it." The village chief said instead.
Youyou shouted loudly and scolded her.
Youyou was about to say something, but she seemed to remember something, her face immediately turned pale, and she stepped aside and said nothing.
"If something is really difficult, please tell me, I will never stand idly by." Gu Zheng understood a little bit why he was not welcomed by the village chief and the people here.
"You? Forget it, just don't cause trouble. We don't need your help." The village chief snorted disdainfully, then looked at Youyou and said in a slightly gentle tone.
“You know, Youyou, so I’ll give you two days to send him away then. You also know the road. Don’t make it difficult for grandpa and your uncles, okay?”
“I know, grandpa!”
Youyou was obviously not in a high mood, but she agreed.
“Well, in that case, I will leave soon.” Gu Zheng also said the same.
Since the other party has made a sound to drive them away and I don’t need help, what else can I do?
“That’s good, I’ll go and get busy first, you can take this young man around.” The village chief smiled with satisfaction when he saw this, and even looked at Gu Zheng with a much friendlier look.
“Master Gu, let’s go for a walk. Our village is small anyway, and one day is enough. You have some rest tonight, and I will send you away tomorrow.”
After waiting for a while, Youyou still forced a smile, and then said to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng nodded and followed the other party around the village again.
Although Youyou still forced a smile on her face and looked the same as before, Gu Zheng could still feel clearly disappointed.
The village is not very big, so it can be completed quickly in half a day.
After that, Youyou took him to the open space on the other side of the mountain. He also met a lot of people, farming some unknown things there, and also took him to the beach to experience the joy of fishing on a boat.
Perhaps Gu Zheng has agreed to leave, at least he feels that most of his attitude has improved a lot.
It was not yet night, and Youyou had already taken him back to his room.
“I will send you away tomorrow, and you must not come out at night.” Youyou said to Gu Zheng who entered the room.
"I know." Gu Zheng nodded. Since he promised the other party, he would naturally not break his promise.
The night was uneventful, and early the next morning, after drinking the fragrant extra fish porridge, I was led by Youyou and walked outside.
Along the way, Gu Zheng clearly noticed that there were several people following him, who seemed to be monitoring him.
In less than half a day's work, you came to a triangular passage opened by someone. Beyond that was a dense forest, and Youyou stopped.
"Master Gu, you have to be careful along the way. Follow this road and then over the mountain. There are traces of our sign. Follow it all the way and you will reach the nearest town."
Youyou, who had been silent along the way, broke the silence by speaking, but the hoarse voice made Gu Zheng feel distressed.
“Are you okay?” Gu Zheng asked worriedly.
"It's okay. It's my blessing to meet the young master in this life. You should hurry up and leave." Youyou's tears fell down. After pushing Gu Zheng hard, he ran back towards the way he came.
Only water droplets as bright as pearls are left floating in the air.
Gu Zheng did not call the other party, but watched the other party's figure disappear into the distance, then turned and walked towards the distance.
Those who monitor us are still behind us.
Night gradually falls.
On the huge fishing boat that should have been peaceful, bonfires were lit one by one without worrying about burning the fishing boat. The flames soaring into the sky clearly illuminated the entire fishing boat.
Almost all the villagers who were originally resting have arrived here, surrounding the bonfire in the middle.
Different from other bonfires, this one in the middle has a large pot on it, with streams of black liquid bubbling out. There are two figures standing next to it.
It is Youyou and his grandfather.
"You are the only one in the whole village now. You will be in your prime years in a few days. You can't delay it any longer. You know, I have been helping you all these years. Now is the last moment." The villager looked serious.
Said to Youyou next to you.
“I know, but grandpa, can you give me two days of grace? I don’t want to.” Youyou’s eyes dodge, her expression full of fear, but she still said subconsciously.
"Nonsense, I have indulged you for so long. If you weren't my most beloved granddaughter, how could I tolerate it now? Even that stranger was saved by you. Anyway, it's only been a few days. Let's be together today, everyone.
Everyone is looking forward to it." The villager puffed his beard and glared, and immediately scolded Youyou.
“That’s right, we’re already waiting, so why bother.”
“The village chief said, from now on we can do things that our ancestors couldn’t do.”
“Hurry up, I can’t wait to welcome Lord Black Dragon.”
The surrounding crowd made noisy noises and kept discussing.
But everyone has the same idea, that is, let Youyou continue to do it no matter what.
Youyou looked around at a loss. Those were her closest clan members, but at this time, she could no longer see the love they usually had for her. Their faces were all filled with a kind of crazy desire, which made her feel very strange.
It also felt very scary.
"Be good, after today, we are completely a family. No one can separate us. We have eternal life!"
The village chief smiled and said to Youyou. At the end, he turned around and shouted to the people next to him.
“Eternal life!”
“Eternal life!”
The people around him cheered one after another, and everyone had a fanatical expression in their eyes, as if they could really gain eternal life.
Only Youyou in the middle looked at everyone with a somewhat sad look, even his favorite grandpa. Everyone was already going crazy.
"So, today you have to drink it no matter what. Just drink it yourself, or let me feed it to you personally." The village chief waved his hand with some satisfaction, suppressed the cheers of the crowd, and then turned his head to look.
Said to Youyou.
"grandfather!"
Youyou begged again, looking at her strange but familiar grandpa, she really didn’t want to become like them.
"Don't worry. After you drink it, you will feel the endless power. Naturally, you will not blame grandpa. How could grandpa harm you." The village chief's face changed and he said softly.
“Sister Youyou, I had the same idea as you before, but since I drank it, my whole person has been reborn. Come and join us, we are all waiting for you!”
At this time, a boy who looked a little younger stood up next to you and persuaded Youyou painstakingly.
“Come on, don’t hesitate!”
The being has picked up a wooden spoon and scooped out a spoonful from it. Silks of thick black liquid followed the edge of the wooden spoon and then accumulated at the bottom, condensing into black water droplets and falling downwards, splashing on the ground and emerging.
There was a puff of black smoke, and in the blink of an eye, a small hole was corroded underneath.
And more black liquid, the wooden spoon trembled slightly as the existence's arm shook, waiting for Youyou to come forward.
“Grandpa, please, don’t force Youyou, okay? Just wait for two days!” Youyou smelled the disgusting smell, closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she begged again with extreme fear in her heart.
"Since you don't do it, then I will do it." The village chief looked at his favorite granddaughter and begged bitterly, but there was no emotion in his heart.
As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden spoon in his hand was thrown directly at Youyou.
“Stop!”
There was a sudden loud shout in the air, and at the same time, a figure flew towards this side from a distance, and it only took two steps to get to the middle.
However, his speed was faster than the wooden spoon that was close at hand, and the opponent's power was fast and urgent. When the figure was still in the air, the spoonful of black liquid had already fallen on Youyou.
However, contrary to the figure's expectation, as the black liquid approached, a burst of golden light suddenly emitted from her body, completely evaporating the black liquid, and it felt like it was not even close to her body at all.
Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Youyou looked a little surprised. She suddenly opened her eyes, only to find that Gu Zheng, who was supposed to leave, was standing in front of her. She couldn't help but scream.
“Mr. Gu, why are you back?”
She obviously watched Gu Zheng leave here, and there were still people staying there to prevent him from coming back.
“Why can’t I come back? If I don’t come back, I’m afraid you will be harmed.”
Gu Zheng took a step forward, blocked Youyou from his side, and then turned around and said.
The village chief looked at Gu Zheng coldly. He was not surprised by Gu Zheng's extremely fast speed just now. When he saw that the other party wanted to ask, he directly raised his finger and pointed at Gu Zheng.
"You are not leaving. You are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of our village. It is still too late to leave. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
“Youyou helped me with everything. I remember this very clearly. If you want to hurt her, you have to get through me first!”
Gu Zheng looked around, and saw that those people were looking at him fiercely, as if they wanted to pounce on him and tear him to pieces, he said disdainfully.
"I shouldn't have saved you in the first place, Youyou, you let me down so much. You must have told the other person something. Are you worthy of your dead parents?" The village chief said to Youyou with a heartbroken look.
Then his voice changed and his face became gloomy.
"Since you broke the rules, it's easy to handle. Let's see if the heroic spirit can protect you."
The cauldron next to it suddenly rose up without warning, and then turned into a green ball in the air, rushing directly towards the pomelo next to it.
Gu Zheng snorted coldly and immediately grabbed the green ball in the air. In his opinion, the opponent could not fly away from his hands.
But as his palm passed across the body of the green ball, it slipped out of the opponent's body as if it were an illusion.
"Oops!"
Gu Zheng looked at the green ball and wrapped it up in the blink of an eye. At the same time, it rose into the sky and was suspended in the sky.
