After dealing with Li Gui, Gu Zheng had already made preparations for those people after learning the route Li Gui had taken. Everything was waiting to be revealed a few hours later, when Li Gui went to work.
Outside, the patrol team members did not find any suspicious traces. Even if they expanded the patrol scope according to Gu Zheng's wishes, they found nothing, which was not much different from before.
Gu Zheng knew that beneath this calmness lay the coming chaos.
"I always feel like something is wrong. I feel like I've missed something. How could the other party have such a flawed plan?"
In the small room at the back, Gu Zheng thought about the news he had gone to inquire about, and said to Yan Yufei with some melancholy.
After finishing the ambush, Gu Zheng went to Dongcheng to inquire about some information, and also asked the patrol team for some information.
The more information there was, the more confident he was at first, but after careful analysis, it made him more doubtful, and he always felt that something was wrong.
Those demonic spirits are so powerful that they just drag them along and cause some painless destruction, which continues to this day. It's not like there aren't any demonic souls who want to sneak in.
However, whether the opponent enters secretly, lurks in someone else's body, or even transforms into the opponent's appearance, as long as he enters the range of the lonely peak, he will be alive and dead in less than half a day.
All of this is the influence of Gufeng, and no one has ever seen what it looks like inside.
There are various theories, but the only certainty is that this lonely peak has existed since the first batch of humans and monsters appeared here. Under the extradition of the first few powerful people, all those wandering outside were pulled over.
A small country was established until now.
After they grew stronger, they also attracted the attention of the demon spirits. They wanted to eradicate them, but they were already so powerful that they directly blocked the attack of the opponent's army.
Even if the leader of the other party came in person, he was blocked by this side.
Of course, being able to block the opponent is not because the strength of this side is similar to that of the other side, but that the strength of most of those demon souls has dropped at least one level after leaving their range, and it has slowed down as time goes by.
I just barely managed to get a foothold in this place.
Otherwise, the demon soul's huge and fearless army would have been razed to the ground long ago.
Some time ago, when Gu Zheng was blocking the opponent from coming up, the legions below were also blocking the opponent, otherwise the pressure from above would be even greater.
This information was filtered through my mind repeatedly, but I still couldn't get rid of the feeling that something was wrong in my heart. It was as if a pair of hands were covering my eyes, making me unable to see clearly the situation in front of me, so I couldn't help but speak.
"From the news you have learned, there is definitely no problem. The other party wants to sneak into the outer layer with car skills and cause some damage, at least much more than before. But what about looking at it from another angle? In fact, you just fell into it, as long as
You can see through it if you break out of this circle.”
Yan Yufei has been following Gu Zheng, and he also knows what the other party knows, so he naturally understands what's wrong with him now.
"jump out?"
"For example, if you are a demon soul, why have you spent so many years doing thankless things? Is it just to cause more damage?"
"No matter how severe the damage is, it doesn't matter. Even if the four cities are destroyed, they can still be built at any time. The foundation of all this is Gufeng. The official city they established is just to better serve Gufeng."
As Gu Zheng talked, his slightly blurred eyes from a distance gradually became brighter. Finally, he suddenly remembered the other party's idea. Even if it was a bit bold, if it were true, the impact would be no less than a huge disaster.
.
"No matter what, to take precautions, when the time comes, you hide aside and observe carefully. I will turn Xiao An and Shen Qing over and obey your orders."
The size of the opponent will definitely not be large, just these people are enough.
But before that, you still need to contact the person in front of you. Without their permission, you will be unable to make a meal without straw.
...
In the hut left in Xicheng, Li Gui was still as before, anxious and a little scared, looking outside a little uneasily.
In a few hours, it will be his turn to go to work.
Although it is not that strict, you must at least enter within two hours of the specified time, otherwise you will be expelled from the place directly.
But at this time, I thought about Gu Zheng's arrangements for him. Even if he pretended to be so, his fear could still be seen in the details.
He was afraid that the other party would find out that he had been incited to rebel. If he died, it would be terrible and would implicate his father. He was also afraid that the other party would not discover him and let the other party create some irreparable things. At that time, he might not be able to escape responsibility.
In this torment, he couldn't sit there calmly at all. He could only walk around anxiously. The other party hadn't come over yet. If it was too late, I'm afraid it would be too late. He would have to go back and report before he could activate his body.
breath, otherwise it would be impossible to enter.
Just when he was anxious, the door outside suddenly opened, and it was the big man from before.
"You are here, but I will leave if you don't come." Li Gui complained.
"Some things have been delayed. What trouble have you encountered?" the big man said casually.
In fact, except for the other party going home, which is hard to watch from my side, the rest of the other party's actions are clear. Even the worries in the other party's heart can be seen clearly. This is normal. If the other party is close and nothing happens, on the contrary
You will doubt the other party.
"What's the trouble? Don't involve me in whatever you do. I can only be responsible for taking you there. As for whether you can get in or not, that's not my business." Li Gui breathed a sigh of relief and said again.
"Of course, I don't want you to lose everything. By the way, when you go to report, take this thing with you." The big man came in, closed the door, and then took out a small wooden box, only half the size of a hand.
"You won't hurt me, right? When I report, the other party will check me." Li Gui's expression suddenly changed and he said quickly.
"Don't worry, I'm not hurting you by harming me. I'll wait for you halfway after you come out. Just give it to me. Then everything will be as usual. Don't forget the others. Leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late." The big man comforted.
"Well, don't be too tight with me."
Li Gui put away the box and walked to the door, took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked out.
Li Gui, who was walking in a hurry, finally completed the report before the time limit. The wooden box on his body did not cause him any trouble. After activating the identification on his body, as usual, he followed the familiar road, seemingly peaceful.
Heading in the familiar direction as usual.
But when he was about to leave Nancheng, he saw the big man waving his hand to him in front and hid in the room next to him.
Li Gui hesitated for a moment, then pushed the door open and walked in.
But as soon as he entered, he realized that something was wrong. His face was completely pale, his whole body was trembling with blood, and he wanted to leave here instantly.
But as soon as he turned around, he found that the door had been firmly held down. It was none other than the big man who guided him over.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." The big man said gently.
"But, but." Li Gui took a breath and continued, "You actually brought the demon soul here. You are dead. Don't involve me."
At this moment, he felt that he was already dead. There was at least a room full of demon souls in the room, all of them were wearing black robes, but their eyes were already exposed.
Not those servant demon souls, but the real elite demon souls, each of them exudes an aura that makes them afraid.
He even felt that if the opponent stretched out a finger, he could crush him to death.
"Don't worry, you just need to sleep and everything else will be left to me."
The big man behind him smiled slightly, and then slashed the back of Li Gui's neck like lightning. Li Gui lay down limply.
A demon soul behind had red eyes and took a step forward, but was stopped by the big man.
"There are marks on the other party's body. If someone is dead, the people in the government will be able to detect it immediately. Just tie the other party here."
The big man took out the small wooden box from Li Gui's arms and opened it directly with joy in his eyes. Wisps of black mist slowly floated out from it, and then turned into more than a dozen wisps and disappeared into the demon souls inside.
Then all the demon souls turned into a wisp of black energy, and then were swallowed by the big man.
"Thank you, lucky guy. I'll give you an extra gift, which is the complete destruction of this place. I hope you won't thank me."
The big man tied up Li Gui so that he wouldn't be able to wake up for at least a few days. By that time, the mission had been completed long ago.
Then the big man's body changed strangely, and finally became exactly the same as Li Gui. Then he muttered to himself a few times, adjusted his voice to be the same as the other person's, and then smiled. People who are familiar with him will find that even the details are the same.
Then he put away his expression, followed the example of the other person and walked out, and then hurriedly walked towards the path he originally wanted to take.
At this moment, no matter from any aspect of his aura, he is Li Gui, and he even carries the recognition after the report. Only in this way can he walk in safely.
Just as he was walking that way, many of the originally open passages began to be closed one after another. The external reason was due to renovations.
Other people taking over had to walk a little longer and pass through other nearby passages.
This was because something like this had happened before. Basically, it would be checked every hundred years, and there would be people guiding us along the way. We didn’t have any doubts, we just sped up the pace.
The only difference was that there were patrol members standing on both sides of the passage, staring closely at the people walking past.
During this period of time, the war was tense in the front, and it became tense in the back, but it was very rare for members of the patrol to stay here.
But on rare occasions, they would just take a curious look, at most they would discuss it quietly with someone they knew, and then walk down that special passage.
The entire passage is like a bridge, surrounded by black air as black as ink, forming a circle around the lonely peak. These passages are holes drilled in it to allow these people to pass.
As soon as you enter, there is probably only one way to go inside, and it is like streams converging and eventually converging in four directions.
But now there are no people at all in the East City and West City. Even if there are places left, they are closed. And the number of people in the North City is quite small. It can be said that the South City is a huge venue and the place with the largest number of people.
Li Gui followed the established route and found that the road was blocked. He thought that if he didn't repair it sooner or later, he would repair it later. But at this time, it would take at least a few days. They couldn't wait any longer.
Although he doesn't know any other way, there is nothing wrong with following the people next to him.
However, when he saw a patrol at the nearest place, he had a bad premonition in his heart. However, he could not retreat at this time. Once he left and did not go in at the specified time, someone would definitely check.
More importantly, he needs to complete his mission, which is to cause trouble for them.
He was mentally prepared to be discovered at any time, and once the other party took action, he would immediately wreak havoc.
The two patrol members guarding the outside didn't actually know why. They were just sent here to stare hard at the outside. They suspected that the demon souls had new special abilities that could disguise them from being discovered, and their biggest
Its function is to suppress it quickly once something happens.
Li Gui's face was still as if nothing had happened, and his body was very relaxed as usual. He looked at them strangely like the people next to him, and even said a few words to the people next to him, discussing each other.
As he approached step by step, he could feel the other person's eyes constantly scanning his body, as if he could see through him, and he almost couldn't help but explode.
"How did the other party know the news?"
Looking at the other party's alert look, it seems that there is a channel to know about their lurking this time, and they even know the specific time on their side.
"Is it Li Gui?"
Except for the other party, there has been no contact with anyone else from beginning to end. Maybe these people have hidden surveillance that they don't know about. Maybe the wooden box was discovered. You can clearly feel the rush of these people guarding them, as if they were temporarily guarding them.
Come here.
Of course, it may also be that other companions were exposed, which prompted the other party to take emergency precautions.
And he is just a small team, and others may have other ways to pass.
But now, he can only continue to move forward like this. When he came, he had made complete plans not to go back, so there was nothing to fear.
Moreover, this person would never have imagined that he had planned so much time in advance, and even if the other party knew about it now, it would be too late.
Both sides had premeditated plans, waiting for so long just to completely defeat this entangled little insect today.
While thinking about it, he had already passed by the guard next to him and walked into the passage.
He felt relieved, knowing that he had passed, and a smile appeared on his lips. The opponent's move was actually good, and he was afraid that one of his companions would really show his weakness.
As soon as he finished his thoughts, there was a loud explosion in the distance. It seemed that some of his companions did not realize that this was the other party's frightening strategy and it was exposed. However, it was better to let the other party attract a wave first.
As the crowd slowly moved forward, the figure in front of him soon disappeared on the bridge. As long as he passed through the gray barrier in front, he could reach the outskirts of the lonely peak.
Without the recognition on your body, you cannot pass through the barrier in front of you. When you leave, you also need to activate the recognition on your body in order to get out.
As his figure slowly disappeared into the barrier in front of him, he appeared outside the next moment.
But his good mood ended there, because there were actually a row of patrol members standing in front of him.
"We've been waiting for you for a long time!" Shen An looked at Li Gui in front of him and said with a crooked smile.
Two whole teams of twenty people had been waiting for him here for a long time, but the other civilians who came in did not appear here. Obviously this was a premeditated ambush.
There was no time to regret that he had forgotten to cause trouble outside. Li Gui's figure swayed, and countless black energy fell from his body, transforming into demon spirits with extraordinary auras on the ground. He also transformed into his original appearance again, still like that big man.
Among this group of demon souls, he is very conspicuous.
No matter what strange shapes these demon souls have, they are all wisps of black energy below the waist. Only the upper body is intact, and they all look at Shen An and the others with red eyes.
"You hard scumbag, it seems that as Master Gu said, the other party has mastered some methods to sneak in. If it hadn't been for Sir's reminder, I'm afraid the consequences would have been disastrous." Shen Qing looked at the dozen demon souls in front of him, and his expression changed.
Become solemn.
I didn't expect that the opponent would have such a large number of people, and there wouldn't be any ordinary demon souls. I'm afraid this is the opponent's most elite team, so it's no wonder that two of their teams are stationed here.
"What are you waiting for? This is our territory, can we still let the other party be arrogant?" Shen An laughed, not caring about the other party at all.
In the barrier behind them, the reinforcements that had been prepared for a long time came out one by one. In the blink of an eye, there was another member of the team here. They were more numerous than these demon spirits and were even more powerful.
Except for one team member who is outside, all the teams are already surrounding here and are fully prepared.
"superior!"
Xiao An pulled out his standard weapon. It was a long black knife. The blade was not even sharp. It looked a bit bulky and not fancy, but it was the greatest weapon against demonic spirits.
Don't underestimate this weapon. It uses soul stones as the basis and adds a mysterious thing to Lone Peak. As long as one blow hits the opponent's fatal spot, it can severely damage the opponent.
Even if the opponent's attack is non-lethal, with just a few blows, the opponent's figure can be reduced to an illusion and fall into a weak state.
This is their biggest killer weapon, but unfortunately the number is very small. In the past, it was only equipped by a few people, but now it is available to everyone.
The only drawback is that under normal circumstances, after more than a dozen blows, this weapon will collapse due to excessive consumption, making it impossible to fight repeatedly.
But it's enough to deal with these people.
How could these demon souls not know the power of this weapon? Seeing this, their impulses were reduced. Between their backhands, small shields floated on their bodies. These shields were specially designed to block the opponent's weapons.
After years of fighting, both sides know each other well and understand each other's strengths and weaknesses.
At this time, Shen Qing and the three members of his team had completely surrounded the opponent. There was a barrier behind the opponent, which meant that they had no escape route at all.
You can't escape even if you have wings.
All the demon souls on the big man's side also looked solemn, but the aura on their bodies was getting stronger and stronger, and they seemed to be ready to fight.
