A wisp of cold air flew rapidly from a distance and hit Gu Zheng directly. Immediately, Gu Zheng's body was quickly covered with frost, and almost in the blink of an eye, it formed an ice sculpture and was bound in place.
Gu Zheng could actually avoid it, but he knew he was in the wrong, so he simply stood there and let the other party vent his anger. Anyway, this attack was not very powerful.
After a few breaths, Mengzhen with a frosty face appeared in front of Gu Zheng. He was covered with a layer of white clothes, blocking his beautiful body, but his angry eyes were staring at Gu Zheng, as if
What did Gu Zheng do to apologize to her?
But Gu Zheng was wronged. In fact, he only saw the other party's exposed shoulders, and realized something was wrong. He immediately averted his eyes and didn't see the rest at all.
But looking at the other party like this, it seems that he has been seen through. Even if Gu Zheng explains, he probably won't believe it, so he simply doesn't speak and lets the other party calm down before talking.
"You shameless villain, I didn't ask you to stop outside just now, but you were still sneaking behind me. Miss, just kill him." At this time, Huamei also followed and said murderously.
No matter who he was, he dared to peek at the young lady taking a bath. Even if they didn't care about it, it still made her feel angry.
After hearing Huamei's words, Meng Zhen's eyes were gradually filled with murderous intent.
When Gu Zheng saw this, he knew that he had to speak, otherwise the other party could really kill him in person.
As he thought about it, his body's appearance quickly deformed and he regained his own shape.
Meng Zhen was stunned for a moment. Looking at Gu Zheng in front of him, the murderous intent in his eyes quickly receded. Then he waved his hand and rescued Gu Zheng from the ice sculpture state.
"why you!"
Mengzhen said with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes. After leaving the black tower for the last time, he landed outside smoothly and then returned directly to the clan. Later, he also heard that all the people in the prison were released, and he also knew that Gu
The fight was successful.
If it were anyone else, even one of her own clansmen, she would kill them without hesitation, but in the face of ancient disputes, the other party would not only save her life.
"Of course it's me, but don't worry, I only saw your shoulders and nothing else." Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Meng Zhen's murderous intent subsided and said frankly.
"Hmph, you thought I would believe it, that's you." After saying this, even Meng Zhen's face showed a trace of blush. He didn't know how to continue. He took a deep breath before continuing.
"You go outside and wait for me first, and I'll clean up."
After hearing this, Gu Zheng immediately withdrew and pushed all the way to the outside of the attic. Then he stopped and felt a little headache. He caused this incident as soon as he came here. Why did he suddenly become distracted.
He felt something was abnormal and looked around, only to find that something was different.
Because the entire palace city itself is covered by a layer of formations, and their own place is engraved with various formations of different sizes. Most of them are actually to preserve ordinary items, otherwise they must be carefully cared for.
It also gets damaged over time, which can greatly preserve those moments.
They have long been accustomed to Hua Xin, and it does not cause any discomfort to them at all, but Gu Zheng has a slight impact. After adding a simple layer of protection in his mind, the influence here is completely eliminated.
"Hey, why are you standing here? Is there something wrong, Miss? Didn't you come out?" Hua Xin also walked out after finishing cleaning up, and asked in surprise when he saw Gu Zheng standing outside.
"No, the other party will come out soon, and Huamei has already gone in to report."
Gu Zheng knew what happened just now, and with Huamei's character, he would never be able to hide it, but he would delay it for a while.
"Oh, I'm going in to help you ask."
Hua Xin didn't know what was going on. Based on the principle of professionalism, of course after she washed away her dust, she had to go see Meng Zhen and resume her mission. She was not prepared to help Gu Zheng hide it.
Soon, Hua Xin walked out again, looked at Gu Zheng with strange eyes, and then spoke.
"Miss, please come in and follow me."
Gu Zheng was a little embarrassed by the other party. Needless to say, the other party must know what happened just now, so he simply walked in without saying anything, followed Hua Xin, and came to a living room that looked more comfortable.
At this time, Mengzhen was already sitting next to her, and her whole body had changed into a refreshing look. Her snow-white clothes made her even more beautiful. Her originally tied hair spread around her waist like a waterfall, and there was a wave of air in the air.
Ruoyouruowu's fragrance, big eyes as bright as stars, paired with a slight smile, and those exposed teeth.
She is simply a maid from a wealthy family, and it is impossible to tell that she is actually a demon soul.
"Master Gu, please sit down. I probably already know about your affairs."
At this time, when he saw Gu Zheng coming over, he invited Gu Zheng calmly and calmly as if what happened just now had not happened.
Gu Zheng looked at Meng Zhen out of the corner of his eye, knowing that Hua Xin had revealed his disguised identity, and there was nothing abnormal at all. Maybe the demon soul was different from humans and didn't care much about this aspect. He comforted himself that he was doing it opposite Meng Zhen.
Come down.
Hua Xin and Hua Mei stood behind Meng Zhen on the left and right, looking at Gu Zheng with a scrutinizing gaze.
Huamei wants to see who this person is. He dares to pretend to be Mengzhen's lover. Of course he knows whether Mengzhen is tempted, and Huaxin also said that she is the one who makes the decision. Only in this way can the other party come in. If Mengzhen is tempted, he
I really don't want to pay attention to her, it's not up to them how to knead her.
Hua Xin's eyes were filled with excitement. Without thinking too much, Gu Zheng knew what the other party was thinking.
"I'm still bothering you this time. Mainly because of my maid. She was kidnapped. I'll see if I can rescue her. I'll probably bother you. If you don't want to, I'll leave now. You know, my maid was taken away by him.
Captured." Gu Zheng looked at Meng Zhen's eyes and without much hesitation, he directly stated his purpose.
He didn't hide it. After all, apart from them, there were only people from Wen Tianhou's side in this place. If the other party was unwilling to protect him, it would be better to leave as soon as possible.
After he came to this city, the connection had become much clearer, and he already roughly knew Xiaoying's location. Even in this palace city surrounded by wolves, he was confident that he could hide his body for a short time without being discovered by the other party.
"You were caught by the King of Heaven? Your maid has quite a lot of background."
Meng Zhen had already been prepared in his heart. After all, the other party was coming to Miyagi to rescue. Either they caught the person or the King of Heaven caught them. They didn't catch anyone at all during this period. Obviously, it could only be that person.
side.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come here, but I won't waste your time. In just a few days, after I rescue the maid, I will leave here." Gu Zheng saw the other party's look and knew that the other party was not here.
Without trying to drive him away, he said immediately.
He has made preparations. As long as he can get in touch with Xiaoying, he will have the confidence to take her out of here.
"This little thing is no problem. You can stay here as long as you want. Do you want me to help you?"
Mengzhen readily agreed, and even made a suggestion that made Gu Zheng's heart skip a beat.
He never expected that Meng Zhen would say this to him and want to help him. It was simply beyond his expectation.
Even though the Huahun clan has a transcendent status and is not controlled by the other party, such naked help is not afraid of bringing danger to their own clan.
"I am only representing myself. If anything happens, I will be the only one at most. When I was inside, I said that I owe you my life. I can talk about anything."
Perhaps seeing Gu Zheng's doubts, Meng Zhen said nonchalantly, as if it was just an insignificant disappearance.
"No need, I can do it myself, just let me stay here for a few more days." Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment, then refused.
He was surprised that the other party allowed him to stay here after knowing the details. He had saved the other party's life in the Black Tower, but he couldn't treat such a thing as a child's play.
"That's okay. If there are any changes, you can tell me, Hua Xin, please lead him to the guest room on the second floor." Meng Zhen didn't say much and directly ordered Hua Xin, but when he said to go to the second floor, his face changed.
There was still a slight blush, but it simply passed by. Gu Zheng's attention was not on her yet and he didn't notice it.
"yes!"
Hua Xin's eyes narrowed, and with a smile on his face, he took Gu Zheng to a quiet room on the second floor, and then came down from above.
"Have you entered that room?" Meng Zhen asked in a low voice. After receiving Hua Xin's affirmative nod, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Mengzhen stood up suddenly, gave the painting a small beating on the heart, and talked while beating it.
"How could you make up this excuse and tell that guy Mengshui? I'm afraid the whole clan will know about it in two days. What do you want me to do? I have no feelings for him."
"Excuse me, I didn't mean it. The other party caught me in the small town and forced me to do this, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back." Hua Xin begged for mercy while avoiding the playful beatings.
The thrush next to me was also looking on with excitement and did not go up to help.
"Hurry up and recruit from the real world. I'll give you a chance to gain merit. You can come up with tricks for me. If I'm not satisfied, I'll punish you to guard the tribute hall." Meng Zhen sat down again and said to Hua Xin.
She originally had to compete for the position of clan leader, so she would have no chance at all. However, in the face of Gu Zheng's plea, she still had to help. After all, he saved her life. She was really causing trouble. The worst he could do was not be here anymore.
, how else could the King of Heaven touch her?
Hua Xin knew that she had caused trouble for Meng Zhen, so she told her everything, basically leaving nothing out.
"That is to say, that city was occupied by them, and the unlucky clan doesn't know it yet. Forget it, you actually met him. It's good that you can save your life." Mengzhen waved his hand and considered it.
This matter has passed.
For her, the most important thing is that there is no loss in Hua Xin. As for the notification, the outside is blocked anyway and she can't get out. What a perfect excuse.
"Then what should we do next?" Huamei looked at the commotion on the side and said.
"What else can we do? Let's take it one step at a time. Keep your mouth shut. Only after Mr. Gu is done can you clear my identity. Do you understand?"
Mengzhen had no choice. The arrival of Gu Zheng made her passive, but she could only carry it.
"Yes, I will definitely not talk nonsense." Hua Xin and Hua Mei said in unison, they naturally knew what to do.
During the discussion below, Gu Zheng was also very quiet in the room. At first glance, it was obvious that no one had lived in this room for a long time. It should be a guest room, especially the surrounding soundproof circle. It is estimated that no one outside could snoop inside.
Of course, things can't be heard inside or outside.
He knew that maybe Meng really had something to say, and he didn't care. Since the other party wanted to help him, he wouldn't let him help him. As he said, it was enough to be able to stay here. He could stay here for a few days at most.
After a while, he left when the time came.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Gu Zheng began to regulate his breathing. If he wanted to sneak in, he must adjust his state.
The day passed quickly, and when Gu Zheng woke up from his trance in high spirits, the sound of painting hearts happened to be heard outside.
"Mr. Gu, Miss, please come down here."
"What's going on?" Gu Zheng opened the door and asked with some confusion.
"The matter is still related to you. Mengshui's side has spread the news about you. Now the elders asked Mengzhen to take you there and invite someone over early in the morning. The young lady really couldn't shirk it, so they asked me to come up. Don't let me come here.
Just maintain our appearance and your original appearance."
Hua Xin explained, watching the ancient dispute begin to change again, and quickly stopped it.
Now that everyone knows that his identity is that of the Phantom Clan, there is no need to keep pretending. Anyway, no one knows what the original identity of the Phantom Clan is. For them, anything can look like him.
"Okay then, let's go."
Gu Zheng didn't expect that there would be such a big disturbance here before he took any action. He just hoped that the elders wouldn't see it. Even if he was very confident in hiding, he couldn't avoid feeling anxious at this time.
When he came downstairs, Meng Zhen had been waiting for him. Next to her, there was a beautiful female tribesman who was also looking at Gu Zheng curiously.
"The elder asked us to come, we simply can't refuse." Meng Zhen was also a little helpless, spreading his hands and said.
"It doesn't matter. It would be better if we met earlier, so that I can feel confident." Gu Zheng could only pinch his nose and say.
Who allowed his identity to be like this? Now he feels a little regretful. Hua Xin's self-assertion will bring him much trouble, especially for this ethnic group with such a strong curiosity.
"Miss Meng, Mr. Gu, please come with me, don't keep the elders waiting." The female painting soul next to her said at this time, making a gesture of invitation.
Soon the three of them walked in another direction, one behind the other, with Gu Zheng and Meng Zhen following behind, walking ahead leisurely.
"How many elders do you have? I don't have any questions, right?" Gu Zheng didn't shy away from the front, and just asked Meng Zhen in a low voice.
"There are more than a dozen, but there are only three elders who usually take care of things and take turns. Don't worry, we are just asking, there are no other questions." Meng Zhen said with certainty.
This made Gu Zheng feel a little calmer. Meng Zhen meant to tell him that as long as he insisted on his identity as a fantasy clan, the other party would not be able to see through his original appearance. However, Gu Zheng thought of another thing, and he spoke directly when he saw this.
"You said you are competing for the position of clan leader. Could it be that your clan leader has encountered something unexpected, or is it something else?"
"This is a big problem. No one outside knows that our clan leader has fallen into a coma due to cultivation issues. Now we are planning to select a temporary clan leader from among the young people. The elders will assist her in management. But for you, I
It’s time to quit.”
Mengzhen glanced in front of him and answered.
This shows that Gu Zheng is deeply trusted by her. Even if they are not strict with each other, they still know how to keep some important things secret. In order for Gu Zheng to fully integrate into this place, she has gone to great lengths.
Once others know that they know the news, they also know the true meaning of the dream.
Because since the elder is involved, no matter whether Gu Zheng leaves in the end or not, she can no longer run for election.
Gu Zheng nodded. He didn't know that Meng Zhen couldn't compete for the position of clan leader because of him, but he knew that he didn't have to worry too much in front of the elders.
"Isn't this sister Meng Zhen?"
Just when I was on the road, I turned a corner and heard a surprised voice from beside me.
"It's Sister Mengshu!"
Gu Zheng turned around and saw that Meng Shi and several people were also appearing next to him, and there were several people behind him pulling the black ball.
The two people's routes gradually came closer together, because there was a passage in front of them, which was enough for them to walk side by side.
"I brought your sweetheart in, how can you thank me, otherwise he will still be wandering outside."
After they were close together, Mengshui smiled and said to Mengzhen.
"Thank you so much, sister, otherwise I wouldn't know how to face him. I will definitely ask my sister to talk to me when I come back. This time, my sister has completed her mission when she comes back?"
There is actually a competitive relationship between the two, but they were still very good sisters before, but after the election, they gradually stopped interacting with each other.
But now that Meng Zhen has decided to quit, Meng is the only one left, and there is no competition between the two. When they meet, there is no urgency as before, and it seems that they have returned to the good sister relationship before.
Of course Hua Xin didn't know how much trouble her temporary actions would bring to Meng Zhen. She thought that as long as Gu Zheng left, everything would recover. Given her status, she didn't know this yet.
So the matter has reached this point, and there is no room for turning around. Even Gu Zheng doesn't know how much Meng Zhen has paid.
Of course, after Meng Zhen understood the situation within the clan, he knew that his chances were very small. When he was no longer there, Meng Shi had already made a large enough contribution.
"Yes, this elder couldn't wait to come to me. He wanted to interrogate and get some information before handing it over there."
Mengzhen and Mengshu continued to walk with everyone while chatting, and soon came to an obviously spacious courtyard.
This courtyard is huge, and there are even some hidden sentries around it, which are very well protected.
There is a reception hall at the front that is also marked twice, and the rest is blank and covered with black stones.
Gu Zheng didn't understand that the structure here was so strange, but there must be a side that he didn't know about.
The servants who were following them stopped halfway, and only the four of them entered the reception hall.
Three elders, who looked like middle-aged and beautiful women, were sitting dignifiedly on it and had been waiting here for a long time.
When Gu Zheng came in, all eyes were scanning him back and forth.
"Elder, this time I successfully sneaked into Lone Peak, and while the other party's energy was on the Plain of Sighs, I captured him, but this also alerted him."
As soon as he came in, Meng Lu's words surprised Gu Zheng.
