But the people working here basically didn't have much influence, except that some people turned their heads and looked at Gu Zheng, looking at him curiously.
There are very few outsiders coming in here, and these people don't understand. They are too lazy to think about it, and they still do their work unhurriedly. At first glance, they are all old fools.
In fact, apart from the fact that you can stay here for a longer time, the work is not hard and the pay is good, people outside are trying to squeeze in but they can't get in.
"You guys seem to have been planning for a long time, but unfortunately you met me. You deserve your misfortune. I'll give you a chance to throw yourself into the trap."
Gu Zheng looked at the people in front of him and said unhurriedly.
This caused many people to turn their heads and look over, but most of them also looked around curiously. Could it be that the demon soul in the other party's mouth had come in?
These people are not weak in strength, and they are even a little ready to make a move. If they really catch the demon soul, the reward will be very big. Unfortunately, there seem to be familiar people around them, and there are no traces of the demon soul, which makes them a little disappointed.
"Don't be disappointed, everyone. Stop holding your hands first and spread them out. After everyone catches the demon soul, there will be a big reward afterwards."
Gu Zheng still stood there and said with a smile, his words were clearly heard by everyone, and at the same time, the badge on his shoulder shone brightly, making it very conspicuous.
This represents the meaning of the official family here. The most temporary captain still has certain authority.
The people here are different from those in Nancheng. There are only very few civilians here, so Gu Zheng doesn't care about the chaos the other party can cause at all.
After hearing Gu Zheng's words, everyone subconsciously stopped what they were doing. Some people had already excitedly taken off their gloves and stared at the nearby area, eager to try.
After most of the people had obeyed Gu Zheng's instructions, and some were looking at the side with eager eyes, Gu Zheng then looked around and raised his arms casually, attracting the attention of those around him. He wanted to see how to deal with the demon souls that had sneaked in.
be exposed.
Silently, a layer of other fluctuations suddenly passed through the entire area. Some people who looked very normal suddenly had pain on their faces, and wisps of black smoke came out of their bodies.
"Catch them, life or death."
Gu Zheng looked in front of him and laughed. When attention was drawn to him, who would have thought that it would be Chief Su behind him who exposed them. He didn't have the ability to find the other party.
The exposure of the demon soul made the people around him a little surprised.
"The other person has been with me for hundreds of years. When did the demon spirit invade his body?"
However, they were surprised, but the aura on the opponent's body could not be faked. The opponent immediately turned into a bunch of soul stones for their eyes, and soon the people around them who had good self-control and self-control were the first to rush forward.
Those demon souls were attacked by Master Su. While they were still in a daze, many hungry wolves around them pounced on them.
In just a short time, the original wish of this group of demon souls to destroy this place was completely in vain. All the demon souls were completely captured, and the others also died.
The speed was so fast that it didn't cause much damage at all, and calm was restored again.
"You guys watch them first, and then deal with them after I come in and come out." Manager Su came up from behind and said to these people.
These people nodded one after another. Director Su's identity was there, and no one dared to neglect it.
"It seems you are right. Is there really someone inside who betrayed you?"
Manager Su and Gu Zheng slowly walked inside again. These demon spirits were not worthy of Gu Zheng's hand.
"People die for money and birds die for food. In addition, the demon soul can easily bewitch people. I just found an opportunity. I'm afraid I'm fully prepared. Fortunately, I just arrived and the other party didn't pay attention to me.
I discovered something was wrong, and after peeling off the cocoon, I came across the other party's plan."
Gu Zheng thought of that accident, it was really like that, but if it weren't for Yan Yufei's reminder, he really thought that the other party could only do this.
"Hey, I wish you were wrong."
Things had happened, but in his heart he still hoped that nothing had happened, or that it had not been so serious.
"There is chaos outside now. At this time, the other party will definitely go in. I will be the one to do it then." Gu Zheng also hopes so in his heart, but he must plan for the worst.
Director Su didn't say anything, and accompanied Gu Zheng into the mysterious Lone Peak.
This is an open passage that looks no different from an ordinary mountain peak, but there is a mysterious force surrounding it vaguely. The further you go inside, the more obvious the feeling becomes, as if there is a pair of invisible eyes.
Look at yourself as if everything about you is clearly seen by the other person.
The passage they took was not the usual passage used by people coming in, but another separate passage that could reach the core of the lonely peak underground.
The area of the mountain is very large. Even if we speed up a lot when we enter the mountain, it still takes a full hour to reach our destination.
This is a cave no less than the one on the north city outside. Countless star-like light spots are constantly flashing on the top of the cave, making people feel like they are under the bright starry sky.
What surprised Gu Zheng even more was that a little below the top of the cave, about halfway up the mountain outside, there was a red blood-colored heart, like a hill, very conspicuous, with countless blood vessels hanging on it, extending out in all directions, densely packed
Like a spider web, it eventually hangs on the wall.
As the heart beats, some bulges can be clearly seen in the blood vessels, as if something is flowing out of the heart, passing through the transmission blood vessels, and finally sinking into the mountain wall. It is unknown where it will eventually flow.
This is the core of Lone Peak. Apart from the few people who came out, there are less than five people who can come in. And their task is to bring the black powder collected outside here every other month. When
Use it as nourishment to feed the heart above.
The heart will suck it in by itself, just put it here.
"No one is here yet." Director Su at least glanced over and said.
"Then Chief Su, go outside and interrogate those demon souls. I don't think the other party is that simple. It would be better if you can find out some information." Gu Zheng said to Chief Su.
He has the stone in his hand, but if the opponent is too powerful, he cannot protect himself.
"Okay, when you come out, just follow the original path. I'll put your mark inside, and the restrictions there won't attack you." Manager Su knew that he was only leading the way, and didn't say anything more. He nodded and retreated.
Went back.
Gu Zheng looked at the heart above, as if the entire lonely peak was a life, and the supply came from here.
Half a cup of tea had passed, and the surroundings were still quiet, as if Gu Zheng's previous guess was wrong at all, but Gu Zheng's face showed no signs of anxiety at all, and his appearance remained like this from beginning to end.
"Aren't you coming out yet? The other party has already left. Are you speechless in front of him?"
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that Gu Zheng spoke.
His voice was very harsh in this huge cave, and his echo could even be heard in the distance, and it could not disappear for a long time.
After he finished speaking, a figure slowly appeared not far away, revealing his appearance.
"The other party didn't notice me. How did you know I would be here?" A man with a kind face said on the spot.
"How much he wished you wouldn't show up here, but you still showed up." Gu Zheng said with a sigh.
He didn't know the other party, but he knew that the other party was the first to come here and built the entire official city with the first group of people. His status was similar to that of Principal Su. The only difference was that the other party died completely after an accident, but he also stayed here.
Here, keep fighting.
"Where did you come from? You didn't know where you were when I was alive. If you ruin my big thing, you must die." The man's eyes were fixed on Gu Zheng, and his eyes were filled with anger.
This time, they are using the inertia formed from their previous fights with the demon souls to make them relax, and then use their hidden spells to sneak in. After cooperating for a long time, the demon souls that have come in will completely destroy the opponent's foundation.
.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with their plan. Coupled with the harassment inertia that has lasted for so many years, no attention was paid to it from top to bottom, and nothing wrong was found. It is just a pity that the ancient dispute came and then inadvertently
They met, and all the plans were exposed.
Yes, he knew all Gu Zheng's proposals. At that time, he was still discussing it, but he didn't dare to raise any objections. If any flaws were revealed at that time, he would probably tear them apart by one person.
I can only watch helplessly as all my actions are targeted.
What was originally a plan to inflict pain on this side has now become a painless harassment. How can we not make him angry?
What made him even more angry was that Gufeng had completely collapsed under his blow, and the front side was also fighting with the opponent. After getting the news, the morale of the other side must have been greatly reduced, and they directly uprooted the opponent.
But now, everything is in vain.
"Cang Yan, how could it be you?"
At this moment, in the back passage, a person who was supposed to leave, Mr. Su, walked out.
"So you didn't leave? How could you have guessed that it was me." Cang Yan's face became even uglier, and she said in disbelief.
"Of course not. Among the five of us, except for you who didn't show up for a while before your death. You said you were avoiding the enemy's pursuit. I'm afraid you had already negotiated with the other party at that time, and even used your death to deceive the Lord's detection.
, What a good strategy, if it weren’t for this ancient master, I’m afraid everything here would have been destroyed.”
Mr. Su, who had a stooped body, now stood up straight and said with a righteous look on his face.
"Haha, so what, you have no idea what conditions the other party will give. If it were you, you would make the same choice as me." Cang Yan thought of something, her eyes flashing with longing.
"Master Gu, I'm sorry to trouble you. The other party has gone crazy. Let's kill him together. I will explain to Mr. Xu later."
Manager Su looked at the other party with a trace of regret in his eyes, then turned to Gu Zheng and said.
Before they came, they had a hunch that if the other party was really from there, he would definitely not show up easily. Chief Su's words also told Gu Zheng that he had not found the other party either. He either did not come or hid himself.
You can only wait for the other party to come out automatically.
The longer the time drags on, the more anxious the other party becomes. Plus Gu Zheng seems to be clinging to this place, the other party will definitely show up. It would be better if he doesn't show up. After the war outside ends, the principals will gather here, and the other party will have no chance.
Therefore, no matter what, the other party must fight tooth and nail to come out, otherwise, after returning from the front line, they will be carefully screened, and sooner or later their identity will be exposed.
Of course, it is also possible that his previous guess was false and the other party had not penetrated that deeply, but when he saw the other party appear, he knew that he had made the right bet.
"Kill me? It doesn't matter who kills whom."
Cang Yan roared, and a large amount of black energy emerged from his body, and the aura of his whole body continued to rise. Originally, he was only at the peak of Jinxian, but within a blink of an eye, he was at the early stage of Daluo. A demon soul could be vaguely seen.
The shadow clings to it.
"No wonder you are so confident. It turns out you have a back-up plan. I'll leave it to you, Mr. Gu. I'm here to help you."
Chief Su's cultivation level is also at the peak of the Golden Immortal, but he was forcibly pulled up the day after tomorrow. He has almost never fought. He only has the black stone in his hand, which was given to him by the adults to save his life.
"No problem, Mr. Su, just watch from the sidelines. It's easy for a Daluo in his early stage."
Gu Zheng said with disdain when he saw that the other party did not reach the middle stage of Da Luo in the end.
How can a guy who relies on external force to force a breakthrough have any fighting ability?
The only trouble is that he doesn't have a weapon in his hand that can severely damage demon souls, but at his level, it doesn't matter if it's missing.
After seeing that Mr. Su had retreated to the entrance of the cave to take precautions, Gu Zheng no longer hesitated and pounced directly. As soon as the Yunhuang Sword appeared in his hand, a huge sword sound resounded in the air.
Cang Yan's status was the same as that of Master Su, so naturally he also had something to protect his life. His hand was not a stone, but a piece of black wood, about the size of his index finger.
Seeing Gu Zheng rushing towards him, he smacked his hand down, and a huge black hand appeared out of thin air above Gu Zheng's head. It was dozens of feet long, with five fingers like dead branches, covering an area, and it quickly moved towards him.
Press on.
Gu Zheng's body suddenly stopped, and then he retreated backwards like lightning. When the opponent was about to fall, he rushed out from the edge.
The huge palm fell to the ground and shattered into dead trees all over the sky. As it flew all over the sky, it turned into thick branches, and then flew directly towards Guzheng. There were tens of thousands of them densely packed.
"Don't worry about the situation above. There is a shield above. Even if Master Jiajia wants to break through it, it will take some time."
Chief Su hid in the cave and said to Gu Zheng so that he would not be tied up.
"Know"
Gu Zheng shouted, holding the sword in his hand, a layer of golden light wrapped around his body, and rushed directly to the branches in front of him, waving his hands halfway, a huge golden light emerged from his body, and the branches were destroyed by the golden light.
They turned into a ball of powder and splashed out in all directions.
A huge hole appeared from the sea of branches. Even if the surrounding branches tried to get closer, they would be shattered by large swaths of golden light every time they approached, completely unable to withstand the impact of Guzheng.
Seeing this, Cang Yan held the wood in his hand tightly and was not prepared to fight. He rushed straight to the top of the cave, apparently trying to break his heart by force.
Those branches suddenly compacted one after another, not squeezing Gu Zheng, but forming layers of barriers around the outside, trying to trap the opponent inside.
"Come back to me."
Gu Zheng passed through the gap and saw the opponent's actions. With a wave of his left hand, five jade rings immediately roared out, breaking five round holes directly in front of him, and chased after him at a faster speed.
Cang Yan turned his head and saw long black ropes emerging from his body, grabbing at the jade ring behind him. In his opinion, it was enough to block the opponent.
But what surprised him was that before it could rise again, with a few soft sounds, a wave of danger appeared from behind, causing him to turn his head again.
But he saw that dozens of black ropes had all collapsed in the air, and the five brightly colored jade rings had come behind him.
The five jade rings suddenly disappeared in the air, and a greater danger loomed in my heart, and my whole body subconsciously became illusory.
The next moment, five jade rings appeared on the limbs, and they leaned firmly against each other, but the trap was empty. The opponent's illusory body seemed to be in another world. He watched the opponent dodge on the other side, and his figure was no longer illusory.
"boom"
With a huge explosion below, the dead branches that surrounded Guzheng were completely sputtered out in all directions, and none of them was still intact.
Seeing Cang Yan dodge the binding of the five rings above, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. This was the first time someone had dodged it. It seemed that the five rings might be somewhat restrained for the demon soul.
With a thought in Gu Zheng's mind, the five jade rings turned in unison, facing Cang Yan, and then five light beams of various colors shot out from the jade ring. This time, the opponent did not react at all, and the five light beams hit his chest almost at the same time.
With almost five sounds, his whole body fell into the distance like a meteor.
This blow seemed fierce, but he knew that the opponent was now a demon soul, and this dark hell zone was still the opponent's lair in general. His talent was to reduce all kinds of damage, and perhaps it would only be a minor injury to the opponent at most.
It was not too late, Gu Zheng made a move, and the five jade rings followed closely again. The gold and yellow in them suddenly merged together in mid-air, and they landed even faster on the opponent's smashed stone, falling down.
.
A huge golden sword, with a steady aura on it and an indestructible aura surrounding it, slashed straight down.
Behind it, blue rings and green circles surrounded each other, and a comfortable breath came, but green branches appeared in the air and reached over there.
"boom"
As the golden giant sword fell, a bigger explosion roared, and the entire cave trembled.
At the center of the explosion, I saw a figure rising into the sky, looking embarrassed, trying to escape from there.
However, the young branch waiting outside did not miss this opportunity, and quietly reached over, and directly rolled up the opponent in mid-air.
The golden giant sword behind him shrank rapidly, flashed in the air, and penetrated directly into his chest, leaving a big hole.
Even in his current state, Cang Yan was severely injured.
The only struggle he had had disappeared, and he was trapped in mid-air, panting feebly, waiting for those red eyes to look at Gu Zheng.
"Look, this is all easy. If I had known this, why would I do it in the first place?"
Gu Zheng took the piece of wood from the opponent's hand with a flick of his eye, stood in front of the opponent and smiled.
