The town in front of us is said to be a town, but in fact Gu Zheng still overestimates the opponent.
It looks like the area is not small from above, but after going in, I found that there is a lot of empty space inside. In fact, many places are open spaces, which are used by some people as trading venues, and there are some complete houses further inside.
The half-human-high wall was built later, with too much haste, and it probably won't be of much use. It can barely block debris and the like, and any powerful beast can break it open.
Even Meng Zhen, who came in enthusiastically, was a little disgusted at this time, "Why is this place so shabby? It feels like the shabbiest place over there."
Seeing the disappointed Meng Zhen, Gu Zheng felt that it could be over. It should have wanted to expand, but then it stopped because of some problems. At least it was a smaller version of the town. At least there was a place for people to rest in the distance.
, couldn’t help but comfort him.
"Although this place is a bit run-down, let's take a break. This time you will be on your own the whole time. It will test you. If you pass, I will take you to a bigger city next time."
In fact, Gu Zheng originally wanted to leave. After all, there was really no value in staying here. In other words, it was impossible for thieves to come here. But as he came in, a familiar feeling arose in his heart, as if he had some friends.
I had stopped here before, but after careful identification, I didn't know the identity of the other party at all. In addition, coupled with the state of the surrounding villagers, I decided to stay and take a look.
"Okay, leave everything to me." Mengzhen said confidently, walking carefully from inside.
"If I do something wrong, please remind me in time."
Meng Zhen whispered to the brush halfway, and after getting a positive reply from the other party, he felt that there was no problem this time.
The appearance of Gu Zheng and his group surprised the other villagers. They followed them carefully and followed their identities carefully. They had not seen outsiders for many years, so they were very surprised. Especially Gu Zheng and Meng Zhen were dressed up.
Obviously not compared to people like them who are struggling to make ends meet.
Although their conversation was very quiet, for Gu Zheng and the others, there was almost no difference in talking in their ears. Of course, Meng Zhen would not pay attention to them. She had already prepared what she would do next. In some scenes she had seen before
Combine them and prepare for your first actual battle.
Soon they came to the entrance of a hotel with a sign called "You Lai". The sign behind it had disappeared, but there was only a small layer of masks in front of them, and there were less than ten crowded tables in total.
It was so tattered that it hadn't been replaced in I don't know how many years. One of them even seemed to have been unused for a long time, and there was a light layer of dust on it.
Seeing all this, Meng Zhen also carefully frowned. Although she was mentally prepared, everything in front of her was still so shabby that she couldn't imagine it.
But at this time, there were actually more than a dozen people sitting in the small room, occupying an ordinary table. In front of each person, there was only a small wooden wine glass, but there was no food or drink, as if they came here just to drink.
That glass of wine carefully from.
Gu Zheng could easily see the turbid and unknown liquid inside. Some people had already drank half of it, and some had not yet started drinking. When he saw them coming, he looked carefully from them.
At this time, this scene appears to be cautious.
"Ahem."
Meng Zhen didn't ask so many questions. Thinking that this was his first action, he simply ignored the strange situation in front of him. He looked up and saw the man standing on the side who looked like a shopkeeper. He walked up to the tall wooden tree in front of him.
The table was clapped and they shouted at the same time.
“What to eat”
"Click"
The words in her mouth also stopped abruptly as the old antique in front of her, which cost an unknown amount of money, was smashed into pieces by her palm.
Fortunately, the counter was wiped clean by the other party, and there was no dust. However, Mengzhen was stunned in place. She did not use more strength, but learned how others in the city had slapped her hard before, but when she arrived,
Why am I stuck here again?
"Are you two foreigners? It's your first time here?"
Although it was a question, the shopkeeper in front of him was obviously sure of their identity. No one knew who they were in this three-acre area, and they knew it just by looking at their attire.
"Ah, I'm really sorry. I will compensate you." Meng Zhen didn't know what to do, so she only spoke out after being reminded by the brush.
"You don't have to pay for it, just leave here. There is nothing to eat here. If the truth comes out, go outside and exchange some game meat. I can help you process it." The shopkeeper shook his head and said.
The unlucky start disrupted all Mengzhen's plans, and he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Gu Zheng beside him.
"Then don't bother me, let's leave now."
Gu Zheng looked at Meng Zhen's appearance and couldn't help but think of Xiaoying in the past. He smiled bitterly in his heart and stepped forward to pull Meng Zhen over.
There is indeed something strange here. Although the other party did not show any signs of vigilance, it was obvious that they were not welcome.
At this time, other guests also finished drinking what was in front of them and left from the side.
"It's very strange that there are actually foreigners coming here."
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded not far behind.
"Miss Renxue!"
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he trotted out.
Gu Zheng turned around, moved his body slightly, and then pulled Meng Zhen to stand aside, watching the shopkeeper enthusiastically welcome him in.
"I told you last time, no matter how there are no guests, you still have to clean up anyway." Looking at the dirty scene in front of her, Ren Xue shook her head and said.
"I'll do it now. I didn't expect Miss Ren Xue to be so early this time. I thought it would take more than ten days." The shopkeeper took out his dirty towel and wanted to wipe it on the table.
go.
"Forget it, I'll do it myself."
Here Ren Xue stopped the other party, and then a green light flew out from the fingertips, and after circling the entire room, everything took on a new look.
"Thank you, Miss Ren Xue, for taking the initiative. I'm really ashamed." Shopkeeper Ma He rubbed his hands and said with some restraint.
"Haha, no need, this is your stuff below." Ren Xue smiled slightly, then waved, and a wooden barrel that was as tall as two people appeared on the ground.
"Why are there so many this time?" the shopkeeper said with some surprise as he looked at the things in front of him.
"I'm afraid this is the last time I give it to you. By then, the surrounding land will have almost recovered and will be enough to support you." Ren Xue turned around, left these words, and walked outside.
"I would like to thank Miss Ren Xue for everyone."
The shopkeeper suddenly burst into tears. At the same time, he knelt down and banged his head several times at Ren Xue's back.
"Foreigners, this place is not where you came from. Leave now."
Gu Zheng and the others had been watching outside. When Ren Xue walked up to them, she paused for a moment, carefully followed these words, and then left with the two followers behind her.
"How can there be such a powerful mission here? I feel that my strength is not weaker than mine."
After the other party had completely left the place, Meng Zhen said curiously, but he didn't wait for Gu Zheng's answer. He turned around and saw that he didn't know when he came to the wooden barrel.
"Hey, foreigner, be careful. This is our stuff. Don't touch it. Be careful not to leave here." The shopkeeper was startled when he saw Gu Zheng appear there and took two steps towards him.
Said loudly.
"Is this what they drink?" Gu Zheng felt the breath inside and said thoughtfully.
"Did you hear that? If you dare to touch this thing, no one will spare you." The shopkeeper saw that Gu Zheng ignored his words and had no intention of leaving. He picked up a wooden stick and pointed it directly at Gu Zheng to threaten him.
But as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes blurred and he found that the weapon in his hand had disappeared and appeared in the woman's hand instead.
"Don't get excited, the other party is just an ordinary person." Gu Zheng looked at Meng Zhen who was staring at him eagerly. He felt that the other party was a comparable opponent and quickly stopped him. Otherwise, if he made a casual move, the other party would be completely destroyed. Then he smiled and looked at the other party carefully.
From the ground.
"I have no intention of taking this thing away. Don't worry. Can I ask you a few questions?"
Unfortunately, the other party did not appreciate Gu Zheng's kindness. Instead, he started to retreat and shout, trying to attract the villagers outside. Now his face changed slightly, and then he directly stepped forward, grabbed the other party's shirt, and pushed him aside.
on the bench.
As for the other party's request for help, it is naturally impossible to spread it.
"I'm asking you now, who is that woman named Ren Xue, why is she here, and why is she giving you these things?" Gu Zheng looked at the shopkeeper whose eyes were blank and asked directly.
He didn't want to waste too much time on the other party. If he didn't follow him in time, he might lose the other party's whereabouts.
The other party quickly and carefully shook things off. After Gu Zheng got the information he wanted, he took Mengzhen and left here directly.
After a long time, the shopkeeper came back to his senses. He subconsciously wanted to call someone, but found that there was no one in front of him. He quickly came to the barrel and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that it was intact.
He didn't know what happened, but since the stranger left and the barrel was still there, there was no problem.
The two figures were galloping on the ground and soon entered the primitive forest. They shuttled through it lightly and flexibly, always heading in a certain direction.
It wasn't until most of the day that Gu Zheng's figure suddenly stopped, but Meng Zhen didn't realize it until the brush reminded her loudly in her ear. She hurriedly returned to the original road and saw halfway
When Gu Zheng looked helpless, his face suddenly turned red.
"Why didn't I notice it when I was down there?" Gu Zheng said helplessly.
"The main thing is that once you get used to it, you'll be fine after a while." Meng Zhen said with a blushing face.
"Wubi, please pay close attention to the other person and remind him in time."
Gu Zheng can only do this. The other party's character is free and easy. You can say that the other party is like a young girl who has not been deeply involved in the world. The other party is not stupid. He is very smart in some things. You can say that the other party is smart, but sometimes he is
The only thing that reassured him about being stupid was that at least he wouldn't be stupid when fighting.
As he continued walking forward with Mengzhen, he finally stopped on a slightly raised rock.
"You know that woman, right? What are you doing with her?"
Seeing Gu Zheng standing on the stone looking around, Meng Zhen couldn't help but asked out of curiosity.
"You must have heard what that ordinary person said just now." Gu Zheng seemed to have anticipated the other party's inquiry and said without looking back.
"Of course I know that the other party is providing them with that kind of liquid to keep the other party's body with strong vitality. It's no wonder that the other party is in such good spirits." Meng Zhen nodded and said.
"Yeah, if I'm not wrong, the other party gave us the liquid very quickly after he came here after leaving us. And I also noticed that this place used to be very prosperous, but it's only in the past few thousand years that it has become more prosperous.
Became so depressed.”
"You know so much without even asking?" Meng Zhen jumped to Gu Zheng's side and looked up and down, looking suspicious.
She and Gu Zheng were never separated from the beginning to the end, so naturally they knew that the other party didn't ask anyone at all.
"Observe? You know, you can get the information you want just by observing. Of course, it also requires a certain amount of experience. Of course you don't understand. I know you want to ask why you want to follow the other person, right?" Gu Zheng looked aside.
The dream came true, and the latter kept nodding, his big eyes full of longing.
"First of all, you guessed one of them correctly. I know the other party. I originally wanted to find their traces, but I didn't expect to meet them here. The other party has a special healing ability. I want to ask the other party if it can heal the injuries in your body.
." Gu Zheng said it directly without tempting the other party.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's leave quickly." Meng Zhen's eyes lit up and he said immediately.
"Don't worry. Before the other party left, he said he was going to do something, but it seems he failed. He should be in a dangerous state now."
"Failed? Don't tell me, you also know those people on the other side." Meng Zhen followed carefully.
"You guessed it right, I know him, so we have to be careful and find a way to rescue each other." Gu Zheng looked like you were very smart.
"Then you must rescue the other party, not only for me, but also for your friends." Mengzhen raised his fist and said seriously.
"Stop, stop, I haven't finished speaking yet. Don't be so excited and prepare to go up. Let me ask you first, do you know the position of the other party? Just rush up." When Gu Zheng saw Meng Zhen, he was about to take a step forward.
He rushed forward and instantly weaved a defense in front of him, blocking the opponent back.
"I don't know, you know?" Meng Zhen also felt that she was a little impulsive and quickly followed carefully.
"I don't know, but I'm not searching with you. If you don't have my order, try not to act." Gu Zheng was not angry and just said to Mengzhen.
"I will definitely promise not to act without authorization. I think I was too excited to come here and I haven't suppressed it until now. I will pay attention to controlling myself." Meng Zhen also felt that there was something wrong with him and said immediately.
"Well, I know, please pay more attention. Now you wait nearby, and I will find the other party's location."
Gu Zheng looked at the unnoticeable black threads in Meng Zhen's eyes, without saying anything more, and began to carefully explore the location where the other party last disappeared.
He guarantees that the mark he left on the other party will never be noticed by the other party. Now that he cannot sense it, there is only one possibility. The other party has stepped into a formation, which blocks his own perception. Even if he is discovered and eliminated by others,
, he can feel it too.
While Gu Zheng was looking for Ren Xue's position, Ren Xue had already stepped into the fog outside the valley, and the two people following him also dispersed automatically, because they were just to monitor Ren Xue, even if the other party had merit, in
In this special situation, no matter who you are, you will be monitored as long as you go out.
And they are people who serve both physically and mentally, and will not betray at all. Ren Xue will naturally not say anything to the other party. When he came back this time, Master Timber Wolf informed him to go in.
Inside the valley, there is a lush forest. Each tree is more than ten feet tall, even thicker than the trees in the backyard in front. Countless branches as thick as buckets block the sky and the sun. Let Xue walk into a path where only one person can pass through.
On the road, except for a few scattered lights and shadows, the entire sky was completely dark.
Ren Xue knew that all the clones of Lord Timber Wolf in this forest were assisting him in his cultivation.
Moving along this straight passage, Ren Xue soon came to the end, where a large tree with a thickness of a hundred feet was breathtaking, and it seemed that it had experienced a lot of years at a glance.
It's just a pity that this extremely huge ancient tree has mottled bark all over its body, making it look extremely old. Not to mention the drooping and withered branches above its head, indicating that the opponent has fallen into a countdown to life.
But Ren Xue knows that this tree is just the carrier of the other party. Anyone who underestimates him will die without knowing how, because the original body of this ancient tree is the fallen demon god.
Of course, it is not a completely victorious demon, but just a trace of spiritual thought that the opponent escaped. He only has the cultivation level of the middle stage of Daluo. However, Ren Xue knows that although the opponent has been severely injured, if he really wants to fight, the average Daluo peak
Neither is a match for the other.
Without him, the other party was really weird. She had seen a Daluo peak with her own eyes. When she passed by, she discovered the difference here. Naturally, the formation outside could not be hidden from the other party.
The peak Da Luo, who claimed to be the vanguard commander of the Demon Clan, was ordered to assemble and prepare for the final decisive battle with the Witch Clan. Naturally, he was overjoyed and greedy when he saw the alone and injured Demon God.
As long as he can swallow the remnant thoughts of this demon god, it will bring countless benefits to him, and it will also give him the possibility of making a breakthrough in his cultivation that has been standing still.
After some fruitless negotiations, the two men started fighting.
What happened was beyond Ren Xue's expectation. She originally thought that the end of the demon was coming, but in the end, the battle was over in just half a day.
The monster that looked extremely powerful was pulled into an unknown space by Timber Wolf and carefully disappeared. Timber Wolf also suffered serious injuries, with deep cracks in many parts of his body.
, As for how heavy it was, she didn't know how heavy it was, and she didn't try to resist. The ancient tree where the other party was parasitic was innately restrained against them, not to mention that the cultivation level was higher than them.
As for whether he was sealed or dead, although Ren Xue didn't know at first, in some subsequent words, he also guessed that the other party was dead.
"Lord Timber Wolf, I'm back."
When they reached the end, Ren Xue lowered her head and said respectfully.
