As Ye Tian left, Gu Zheng signaled Jin Sanshun to continue.
"Please tell me in detail, I haven't been here for a long time, starting with how you met Yang Du."
Taking this opportunity, Gu Zheng also wanted to know what happened to Yang Du these years. He was unwilling to leave with him back then. Apparently he had some thoughts in his heart, and at that time he asked some people to help and take care of him.
As long as his life is not in danger for the time being, there is no need to worry. As long as the other party is still breathing, he can ensure that the other party will not die.
"I came here about five hundred years ago. I was lucky enough to be met by my adoptive father, and then we gathered together. Some of the things I know were told to me by others."
Jin Sanshun knew that he couldn't go back immediately if he was in a hurry, so he patiently faced Gu Zheng one by one.
Soon Gu Zheng knew everything that happened in Yang Du. Although it may not be completely true, excluding some trivial matters of his struggle, it was easy to see everything clearly, and he also learned more about things here.
In fact, under his last care, Yang Du's development went smoothly. The only regret is that his strength is always stuck in the late stage of Tianxian. He also knows his disadvantages and has not developed much power. In a core city, he has occupied a lot of power.
Almost a third of the way, I stopped.
You must know that before the Six Paths appeared, the closer to the center, the higher the concentration of surrounding ghost energy, and the faster the cultivation speed. However, the more Ji Qi was absorbed in the body, it took more time to eliminate it, but with
Compared to cultivation, this little flaw is nothing at all.
Moreover, many things are only found in the inner area, even in the core area. There are only very low-value items in the periphery. How big is the specific center area? Although I didn’t go into the last ancient war, I also learned about it from the side, at least compared to
The known outside is even bigger, and no one has reached the core.
At that time, the center was full of violent chaotic soul beasts, and their cultivation levels were astonishingly high. They were all spontaneously condensed ghost energy. There were all kinds of strange things. The deeper you went in, the more powerful they became. Anyway, there were several big ones.
Luo's master also went deep into the cave, but later came back in embarrassment and stopped talking about what happened.
It is said to be the center, but it is not actually a circle. After careful calculation, it should be divided into two halves with the water of Huangquan as the boundary. This area belongs to their exploration area, and further north belongs to their recognized core area, which is also
The area they explored.
The Tower of Hell is located on the edge of the underworld. If this is used as a boundary, continuing to go south is within their scope of exploration. Even if no one has explored the limits of the surrounding area, some people have estimated that there are at least four prehistoric places here.
One-third the size.
Because just exploring these areas would almost cover a continent.
Each city is located in a different location.
Real cities, such as those I visited in Guzheng last time, require very little power to maintain the other side, because there is a core circle under the ground that erupts with endless ghost energy. The use of formations not only strengthens the concentration in the city, but also
Maintain the buildings inside. The closer you get to the Tower of Hell, the stronger the concentration becomes.
The city Yang Du chose at that time was in the middle. If we divided it carefully, there were about seven areas from the inside to the outside. He was located in the fourth area, and the competition was not fierce.
Seahawk City!
It was once built by a top Daluo master who worked hard, but later he was captured and imprisoned in the Tower of Hell, which made it easier for others who came after him.
The reason why Yang Du changed was also because of the emergence of Six Paths.
In the north that was originally filled with violence and chaos, ten tall and majestic halls quickly appeared. They were spread very regularly on the side of the Yellow Spring, completely purifying a part of the black mist in a large area, which was equivalent to the range that allowed them to exist.
It expanded a lot.
But it's a pity that not only ten halls appeared, but also an even more majestic, palace-like building complex. There was no sign of these things. Just like in the blink of an eye, when I looked over there, they suddenly appeared there.
There are also soldiers claiming to be managers of the underworld, demanding that everyone must obey them unconditionally, and their backing is the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Naturally, it was different at the beginning. The strength of the soldiers seemed to be similar to that of the ghost cultivators. However, as the Hell Tower was controlled by the opponent, all the opponents disappeared and were sent inside to be tortured.
Some opponents who were deliberately released by them also brought news about the removal of the first three floors.
The innocent souls who entered before are still there. As long as they are on the first three floors, they still have a chance to come out. However, no one knows about the fifteen floors behind. Even the people who were captured by the Tower of Hell, regardless of their cultivation level, including ordinary people.
Possibly, there is no rule.
Then the soldiers began to recruit these ghost cultivators, and even though there were many restrictions, many joined in. After all, they also realized that the weather had changed, and it was easier to enjoy the shade with a big tree behind them, especially for new recruits, it was easier to get promoted.
This was the consequence that caused Yang Du to do this later, because there were too many ghost cultivators gathered in the core area. After such operations, vacuum forces appeared in many places, and Yang Du was also tempted.
He didn't say that he wanted to go to the front, but he just wanted to move forward to an area and set his sights on Qianshi City because he wanted to leave further.
Unexpectedly, this was a trap set for him. The opponent did not leave at all. He turned around and shot him back with a carbine, severely injuring Yang Du.
What was even more shocking was that because Yang Du was accidentally injured, all the backers behind him left. She knew the real situation. They went directly to the Six Paths, reincarnated, and left here completely. They didn't even know where they were.
What to be afraid of.
Looking at it now, it is obvious that they are afraid of their master, but the other party is not weak either, so it feels like a mouse being clawed by a cat.
At that time, I still guessed that there was another reason, but now I vaguely know why. Looking at the respectful way those forces looked at Gu Zheng, it was obvious that his strength must be very terrifying, enough to intimidate everyone.
Otherwise, they would really look down upon a mere peak Golden Immortal, and with so many sin-washing stones in their hands, they would definitely take risks to snatch them.
However, they told the outside world in another way. They got into trouble and they were implicated, which is why Yang Du became like this.
Now Yang Du is unconscious and his physical condition is getting worse day by day. His own force is also in a state of internal and external embarrassment. It is difficult to support it, but it cannot last long. Jin Sanshun is really the descendant of Yang Du's friend. When traveling
Encountering a bandit, he committed suicide, but Tiedan was not sure.
The only thing I know is that he was her captain of the bodyguard during his lifetime. He was also very smart, but he was just an ordinary practitioner. However, after he came here, he couldn't remember many outside things and he became dull.
After they came to Yang Du, they began to help him take care of some things. Jin Sanshun himself was smarter and soon became his right-hand man. Under Yang Du's guidance, the two people's cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.
occurrence.
She once remembered that Yang Du said that there was a very precious thing in a certain place. He hid it at the time but forgot to bring it back. Once he was in danger, this thing could save his life.
Various methods failed to wake up Yang Du, and coupled with the constraints inside, everything outside was almost paralyzed. She took Dui outside in a fit of anger and found the place where Yang Du had stayed, only to find the sparkling sin-washing stones around.
Instead, there are as many as thirty.
On the way back, I was attacked by the two mad dogs and stole two sin-washing stones. After that, Gu Zheng knew the rest.
"You still have that thing with you? Let me take a look." Gu Zheng was actually very curious about what happened inside, but from Jin Sanshun's words, she didn't know much about what happened inside. She heard it all from others.
According to the news, Yang Du strictly forbids them from entering, because the real jungle is there.
More importantly, there are too many powerful people. If you anger them, they could kill you directly in the past.
"I carry it with me. This is it." Jin Sanshun quickly took out a small thing from his hair. It was only as big as a fingernail and looked like a thin layer of white flakes. "I can't feel any breath from this one, either.
It’s not like an ordinary elixir, I don’t know why my adoptive father said it could save his life.”
"Although this thing is small, it is actually very useful. It can at least save the life of a peak Golden Immortal. However, it can only treat internal and external injuries. Yang Du's current situation is not that simple. This thing will not work." Gu Zheng just said.
After taking a look, he said casually without taking it.
"This is what Mr. Yang said to save his life. It must be effective." Tiedan defended at the side.
"If I say it has no effect, it means it has no effect. I still give him this thing, but the preservation is not very good, and the effect is at least half discounted."
"You are so stupid. With Master here, there is nothing you can't solve."
Seeing that Tiedan still wanted to argue, Jin Sanshun knocked the opponent on the head and interrupted him.
"I'm just impatient. I've tried all the methods and can't wake him up." Tiedan also found that his actions were very stupid and said a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. In fact, if there was no such thing, I would also come to you. I just didn't expect that you were so unlucky that you could be caught by the other party. If I hadn't packaged your things, you would have been dead." Gu Zheng didn't care at all.
If you care, bring the topic to this.
"Thanks to Master for saving lives twice, those things are just a fatal disaster for us. But you have to give things to people like them. Are you too generous?" Jin Sanshun said carefully.
Thirty pieces, ten of them were gone in the blink of an eye. Just thinking about it makes me extremely distressed. Even if it is a big matter, I think three sin-washing stones can handle it.
"I'm pressed for time. I have other things to do, so I can't stay here for too long." Gu Zheng said directly without hiding anything.
Jin Sanshun was shocked, "Master, do you want to retreat again? The situation in the underworld is changing now. I don't know what changes will happen in the future. I feel like I can't hold on close to my adoptive father."
"The underworld itself already has a master, and it will slowly be reorganized. No matter how it changes, ghost cultivators like you will still be needed. But I am not in seclusion. I am returning to the prehistoric world to continue what I am trying to accomplish."
Gu Zheng explained to her, but seeing that the other party was confused, he understood why the other party didn't understand.
"Come closer to me and put your hand on my arm."
Jin Sanshun didn't quite understand what Gu Zheng meant, but he still got up and walked over. Gu Zheng's clothes collapsed and a small piece of his wrist was exposed.
"Put it up and you'll understand." Gu Zheng didn't say much. No matter what he said, it would be better to let him experience it for himself.
Jin Sanshun carefully put his hand up, and after just touching it, he quickly retracted like a frightened rabbit. Then his face showed an expression of astonishment, and his wide eyes looked a little dull. After a while, he started to scream.
road.
"Ancestor, Ancestor, Ancestor, are you a living person?"
She felt that she had received too many shocks. She did not expect that her ancestor was actually a living person. How did he come here? She had never heard that a living person could come here.
"Of course, that's why I won't stay here for too long." Gu Zheng covered his wrist with a layer of cover again. In this way, until the last moment, no one will know his identity, and there will be no big news.
influence.
"Yes...that's it." Jin Sanshun has not yet woken up from the shock.
There was silence in the air for a while, and Gu Zheng was about to say something when he noticed that Jin Sanshun's face suddenly became listless, and he looked at the table in front of him in a daze.
"What's wrong?"
"I miss my parents."
Jin Sanshun said with some sobs, suddenly it has been hundreds of years since he came here.
After his accidental death that year, he was confused for a long time and didn't know what he was doing. At that time, he was very lucky. His resentment was not enough to become an injustice, and he was within the city limits and was not devoured by wandering soul beasts.
, until I met Yang Du who happened to be passing by, and then I slowly recovered bit by bit.
She thought she was strong enough and had long forgotten what happened in the past, but she was so suddenly stimulated by Gu Zheng that she fell into yearning again.
"You also know that the outside world is very cruel. After many people die, they don't even have the chance to come here. No matter what, at least you are still there, and your guards have been protecting you. You are not alone." Gu Zheng.
One look at the other person's appearance and he knew that she might not have been seen since her death, so he comforted her.
Before the Six Paths, even if there were souls after death, it was very likely that they would not come here. In the end, they would become lonely ghosts and dissipate into the world in a muddle.
So from another perspective, being able to come here is considered a kind of luck. People who are cultivators only have a higher chance. The higher the cultivation level, the smaller the chance of coming here. On the contrary, it is not as good as ordinary people.
"I just lamented that after so many years, not to mention my parents, all my relatives and friends are probably long gone. I just suddenly lost my composure." Jin Sanshun's eyes gradually became determined.
Now that things have come to a point, she also knows that no matter how she thinks about it, she is not the only one left in the world, but at least she has an iron egg. Her only regret is that she is a little stupid. Compared with before, she almost looks like a different person.
"Just think about it. Although we are not like each other, the dead have passed away, so we should look ahead." Gu Zheng could see that the other party really let go, instead of pretending to be strong. He didn't know how he got through these hundreds of years.
It's really hard for the other party.
But this world is like this, even at that time, it was like this. The mountains and mountains fell, and everything had to rely on oneself to truly have a future.
No matter what the future is, it will be better than if you did nothing.
"You guys come with me. I'll give you a special training in these two days." Gu Zheng stood up, put away the other's things that he found on the table, and said to the two of them.
"good."
No matter what happens in the future, thinking that now she has Gu Zheng as her backer and all the problems she encountered before have been solved, she is very happy and has a long-lost smile on her face, and she can finally relax.
"Miss Third, you look so beautiful when you smile. I haven't seen you so happy for a long time." Tiedan saw Jin Sanshun's smile from the side and laughed happily.
"Really? Maybe."
Jin Sanshun subconsciously touched her cheek. Normally, because she had to manage those people, she had to pretend to be dignified, otherwise she would not be able to manage them. This was something she learned by herself without a teacher.
"Of course, those people behind your back call you a cold-faced man. This time when you go back, you must tell them that you are still the third lady, not a housekeeper. You only have a straight face and look like a ghost all day long." Tiedan laughed.
road.
"You are a cold-faced man, you are a vicious man, you want to die, don't you." Jin Sanshun picked up a cup and threw it at him.
"You two, come down quickly, or do you want to treat me to a meal?" Gu Zheng stood outside and saw the other party paused for a moment before he said.
"Go quickly!"
After taking a look at the pile of things, Jin Sanshun could estimate the value at a glance. Even though she usually had a lot of assets, if she really had to pay this, she would really go bankrupt.
The two of them followed Gu Zheng and walked down together. On the way back, they saw a faint light shining outside the two boxes, obviously there were other guests inside.
When they came downstairs, they found Ye Tian resting aside and wondering what he was thinking, and Xin Yu, who had a gloomy face as if he was constipated. When they saw Gu Zheng and the others coming down, they reluctantly came over with a smile.
"Sir, are you leaving now? Didn't you agree to stay here longer?"
She really wanted to curry favor with Gu Zheng. She also knew what happened above. She didn't know how many times she had scolded herself. If she knew that Hela had two sin-washing stones, she would probably leave Gu Zheng behind no matter what she did now.
Like this, I want to leave the ancient contention, but because I feel uncomfortable, I feel a little stiff, just like a perfunctory politeness.
How could it be that Ye Tian had been so angry at her just now, which made her even more angry, and even Gu Zheng had some complaints in his heart.
You are a great master, but you still use such low-level methods. If you reveal your identity, you will eagerly follow me. Why should you give up your opportunity to that enemy?
She could imagine that even though she was not punished, but she wanted to go further this time, there was definitely no chance, and her opponent Hela stepped on her and took over her position. You must know that she has worked hard for this position.
Too many.
Gu Zheng naturally didn't know what the other party was thinking, but looking at her gloomy face, he also knew how the other party was feeling.
"I have something to do here, thank you for your hospitality." Gu Zheng was polite, and then said to Ye Tian, who had just reacted and stood up, "You and I will leave together, and I will give you some more special training. Go to your previous
Just a room.”
Of course Ye Tian would not refuse. Gu Zheng walked in front, followed by Jin Sanshun, and behind him was Ye Tian.
They had already paid the money before, so Xin Yu could only watch them leave. Finally, he sighed in disappointment. He could not maintain his previous appearance and felt extremely depressed.
