When Shuang'er heard this, she immediately stood up excitedly and walked to Wan'er in a few steps.
"What happened to Mr. Gu!"
"I'm not sure. It was Jin Long who told me that my father is in danger." Wan'er was also a little panicked because she couldn't get any specific information from Jin Long.
"Then take the golden dragon and let's go!"
Shuang'er didn't care to reminisce with Long Tian and the others, so she pulled Wan'er and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, why don't you tell us, maybe we can help a little bit." Long Tian suddenly appeared in front of Shuang'er.
"Jin Long said he was ready to solve this problem once and for all. He is still in seclusion and cannot come out." Wan'er also said at this time.
Originally, Jin Long was not in seclusion. She was the one who begged the other party to make Gu Zheng more relaxed. After agreeing to her, he went into seclusion not long after. Now he is out and can't even find his shadow.
"We two don't have to be weak now, Mr. Gu. If there is really danger, we can at least help." Madam Banmeng also advised.
When Shuang'er heard what they said, she stopped. If even Jinlong couldn't move out because of seclusion, it would be useless to go out by herself. She looked at each other and then at Xingcai.
Shuang'er didn't know it when he met the other party, but his previous cultivation was so high, and now it seems that breakthroughs are normal.
Xingcai nodded heavily on the side, indicating that the other party was right.
"Actually, that's the case." Seeing this, Shuang'er briefly explained the matter, and finally added, "Now it seems that there was an accident. Maybe the news is already on the way."
"Is it a rampaging demon clan? It happened here too?" Long Tian frowned slightly.
"On our side, many wild beasts outside have opened their spiritual intelligence, and what should I say? They seem more bloodthirsty and violent than before, and it is more difficult to communicate."
Although Long Tian's voice was small, everyone could hear it clearly. Mrs. Banmeng would like to explain.
"But Gu Zheng has helped us a lot in the past. You don't need to tell us this time, we will all help." Long Tian came back to his senses and immediately hugged the pillow and said.
"Thank you both, but the news hasn't come back yet. It's better to wait for two days and take action when there is news, otherwise you won't know where the ancient dispute is now." Shuang'er said gratefully.
"I know, I know!" Wan'er raised her hands and said loudly, "I can feel my father's position, just take me with you. I am also very powerful. There is no problem in protecting myself."
"Master Shuang, the situation is urgent now. If we wait for two days, it may be too late. Let Miss Gu follow me so that she will not be harmed at all." Mrs. Banmeng said to Shuang'er from the side.
"Then I'll leave it to you two." Shuang'er bowed to the two of them and then said.
"Without further delay, let's leave now." Long Tian said decisively.
"Sister Shuang'er, sister Xingcai, let's go find dad first." Wan'er waved to them and followed them out.
Walking out of the room, Shuang'er watched the three people leaving quickly, with Xingcai advising from the side.
"Don't worry, it's just a little trouble. When Gu Zheng comes back, nothing will happen."
Even though she was persuading the other person like this, her face was actually just as worried as the other person's, because she didn't know what was going on outside, so she could only pray secretly in her heart that everything would go well.
The sky began to get darker, and the city that was still a little lively began to become quiet. Only a few scattered lights continued to light up, but with the faint moonlight, it was still possible
"Yi Zi, please leave quickly. There is a curfew now. Don't get caught because it was too late last time, and you still have to come here."
In one of the few courtyards, a slightly wealthy man walked to a courtyard at the back, looked at the people who had not finished their work, and immediately named one person and said.
"There is one more thing here, it will be over soon." Ye Zi stood up, wiped his face, and said with a smile, as if he didn't take the heavy tasks of the day seriously.
"Farewell, and you guys, please go out. We'll do the rest tomorrow. I'm too lazy to ask for you again. If you don't want to arrest me, then don't do it." The housekeeper looked at everyone's enthusiastic look and shook his head.
, used the last trick.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, all the people in front of him stood up in panic and immediately gathered around him.
"Master Butler, no."
"Can't we just leave?"
"Don't dare let us leave."
Although it is very hard and tiring here, the reward is very good. If you are kicked out, you will only get the kind of food that will make you starve to death, and you will not even be able to buy a piece of clothing. And will there be some extra food as a reward here?
It’s just leftovers. To them, it’s no less than the best delicacy in the world. Everyone cherishes the job opportunities here.
"As long as you listen to me, everything will be fine. If you don't listen, then there's no telling." The housekeeper snorted, and anyone could understand the meaning.
"Go, go! Let's go now."
Hula la, these dozen people put down what they were doing and let the clothes soak in these big basins. Their task was to wash the clothes and sheets, and they hardly had much time to rest.
In the blink of an eye, there was no one in the huge courtyard, and the housekeeper nodded with satisfaction and went back. After all, these were the clothes of other servants.
A dozen or so people were preparing to leave through the back door. Suddenly, Ye Zi felt a stomachache and waved his hand to his companions.
"No, I have to go to the toilet, you go first."
"You must have eaten too much at noon, haha, I understand, don't be too late, otherwise you will be taken away, the housekeeper said it is true." Her companion gave her an "I understand" look, and then smiled
Hehe left.
Ye Zi didn't talk much nonsense to him, and immediately turned around and trotted to the side. Time was really tight.
Soon Ye Zi walked out of the place happily, and then walked towards the hidden small bamboo forest on the side, and came to the place he marked. After digging it open, he found a small shabby package, only as big as his head, feeling heavy inside.
, a smile appeared on his face again.
She didn't waste any time. After putting it in her arms, she hurriedly walked outside. But while she was still on the road, she saw a figure coming in from a distance. She just glanced at it and immediately stood on the roadside with her head lowered.
She didn't know who the other person was, but she recognized the clothes. He was an extremely noble person inside. It was said that he was guarding something important. Someone once went there out of curiosity and took a look, but he didn't come back. She didn't know whether he was dead or not.
I never dared to discuss things there again.
The other party would not look at Ye Ye again, but passed directly by her and disappeared into the distance, leaving behind some Ye Ye who suddenly became a little strange.
Ye Zi had a thoughtful expression on his face, and then came to his temporary residence. It was a room with only one room, in a large courtyard with many people. No one would care about it at this time.
"Yi Zi, you're back. It's been another hard day today. Please take a rest."
A man welcomed Ye Zi in and said familiarly.
"Here you go, the leftovers from lunch." Ye Zi forced a smile, not as happy as before, took out the things in his arms and handed them to the other party.
The man didn't pay attention, thinking that the other person was too tired. After taking it over, he said, "You have to rest first. I'll get you some hot water to wash yourself later."
Ye Zi said "hmm" a little distractedly, and then sat on the simple bed, looking at the man with blank eyes as he feasted on the greasy food. Unfortunately, Ye Zi was lucky that at least one person could only eat one meal a year.
.
"What's wrong? Are you acting weird today?" Halfway through the meal, the man looked at Ye Zi. He looked obviously different, as if he was frightened and had stopped eating. He immediately stepped forward and asked softly.
"Nothing." Ye Zi was still distracted and didn't even look like a man.
Now the man was really anxious. He pressed Ye Zi's shoulders with both hands, shook them vigorously a few times, and asked anxiously, "What happened? After you came back, you felt like you had lost your soul. Could it be that the people inside bullied you?"
"No." Ye Zi shook his head, "When I came back, I met someone. I didn't know him, but when he walked past me, I suddenly felt a sense of fear in my heart, as if I had bumped into someone. I
I keep thinking about why the other person scares me so much."
"Have you thought of it?" A chill suddenly came out of the man's heart, as if he had thought of something.
"We can only be afraid of the people over there. Could it be that there are also people from the other side here?" The man stood up and said with fear in his eyes.
"Maybe, I'm not sure, so I've been thinking, besides, there are so many immortals here, nothing will happen, right?" Ye Zi also said a little at a loss.
"No, now we finally escape and are caught by the other party, but we don't have so much luck. I want to tell them." The man said determinedly, "You wait for me here."
But just as he was about to turn around, Ye Zi grabbed his arm and said, "He will die. The other party will definitely be able to find out who is a high-ranking person. Then we will all die if we send anyone randomly."
She had doubted it before, but when she thought about the consequences, she couldn't help but feel fear. They knew each other's cruelty.
"Ye Zi" the man turned his head, put his other hand on the palm of his arm, and said softly, "Do you remember the person who fell from the sky a few days ago? You and I were not wrong. He once saved us.
The person with his life is among them, and maybe the person outside is here to kill him. We can't know this, so we keep it buried deep in our hearts."
"You know, this place has fallen, and we can't get better. No matter how bad it is, it can be worse than that. I can go alone. If there is an accident, I can do it alone. I won't hurt you."
"I'm going too, saying that I want to repay my savior, and we once said that we would die together." Ye Zi burst into tears, stood up immediately, and said firmly.
Feeling the strength coming from his body, the man nodded seriously, and the two of them walked out immediately.
It was already under curfew, and the streets were deserted. Occasionally, a few children's cries could be heard, but they quickly subsided. Even though the golden light above the head was brilliant, there was still only the cold moonlight falling.
Even though the two of them were very courageous, they still couldn't help but lean on each other at this time and walked forward cautiously, hoping to find the patrolling person.
"You two stop!"
With a loud shout, Ye Zi and the other two felt their eyes flash, and several people surrounded them. The leader looked at him with eyes like fire, as if he wanted to see through him.
"I have important information and I want to see you, sir."
The frightened man immediately shouted.
"Two ordinary people, take them away first!" The leader didn't care about the other person. After sizing them up, he immediately arrested them.
In a brightly lit place, General Lei stood outside a building like a benchmark. The entire building had long been protected by various defensive formations, and the core that activated the outer shield was stored inside.
Except for a few people hiding outside, there is no defense. The main purpose is to prevent some young people from doing damage. General Lei alone is enough.
"There are still three hours left, and it's almost time to exchange."
General Lei looked at the sky and estimated the time in his mind. It should be midnight at that time.
After the core is activated, someone must be guarding it at all times to maintain the connection with the golden dragon. Only in this way can it achieve the best effect. They do not consume much. Normally, there are three people watching inside at all times, but maintaining the main connection requires golden immortals.
If you have a good level of cultivation, you can get help from other gods.
But now that the battle line has been retracted, almost all the peripheral cities are equipped with two Golden Immortal masters, at least they can directly support it.
It is now the handover time, allowing both teams to have sufficient rest time.
At this time, he looked outside, and a strong man hurriedly walked towards this side. He remembered that this person should be the person in charge of the night outside. Although he was from here, his cultivation level was not even that of a heavenly immortal.
Just a powerful immortal cultivator.
"General Lei, there is a situation outside." The man came to the front and reported immediately.
"Could it be that some demon tribesmen are making moves?" General Lei said indifferently.
Mu Lian and Lin Tie have already gone over this place and have not missed any corner. They can guarantee that except for a few kittens and puppies, there are no powerful enemies. Even the people in front of them can easily kill those left behind.
The demon clan below.
"No, that's it." The man quickly told what his men had discovered, "Because the other party kept lying, I brought them here and asked General Lei to tell them."
"Oh? Bring them up." General Lei was very interested. Two ordinary people actually had such news, so he immediately ordered him.
"yes"
The man went down and quickly brought Ye Zi and the others over.
"Are you the ones who have important information that needs to be reported?" General Lei looked at it and asked immediately.
"Yes, that's what happened before. We can guarantee that what we said is true." Ye Zi said with some trembling.
They had already said the matter over a dozen times. Judging from the look of this person, they should already know that there was no need for them to repeat it. But the next moment the other person spoke, their cheeks that had just relaxed twitched again.
"Then tell me again, how did you discover each other?" Naturally, General Lei wanted to ask him personally. This matter cannot be taken lightly.
Because according to the description of the other party, there is only one person who meets this condition, and that is the city lord sent here by the hermit. He has the cultivation level of the late Golden Immortal. He also knows that he has done an investigation before, especially the city lord, even the reclusive person
, and check it again and again.
If it was really the other party, the consequences would be so serious that no one could bear it, so they would naturally be extremely cautious.
Ye Zi cheered up and once again told everything that had happened, including hiding the food he had secretly left at noon to throw away, and also told him the same thing.
"You mean, you ran over there and were rescued by a young man, who came back unconscious?" General Lei frowned slightly and then asked.
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't be able to detect the other party's strange aura. It is exactly the same as the hateful aura in the place where we were imprisoned at that time. I think it is impossible to forget it. Even if it is very faint, I can easily feel it in my heart." Ye Zi affirmed.
.There is still a trace of fear on his face.
"Is there anyone else besides him?" General Lei asked again.
"I don't know, I felt the other person passing by me at that time, and I didn't even react at that time." Ye Zi said truthfully.
"Fortunately you didn't react, otherwise you would have been dead." General Lei said with emotion, "Okay, I know the news. If it is really useful, your contribution will be indispensable in the future. You take them down and protect them well.
"
His men took Ye Zi and the others down, and General Lei looked up at the sky again and muttered to himself.
"Be careful and you'll never make a mistake!"
His figure was all over the place, and he who had been staying here disappeared for a full quarter of an hour before reappearing here, as if he had never been out.
An hour later, the footsteps of three people were heard outside. This was the reclusive city lord, Su Chao.
"I've met General Lei!"
Su Chao stopped and saluted General Lei.
"I've already informed you inside that you can go in at any time. It will be hard for you in the next few days." General Lei also nodded and smiled.
"Just what we should do."
Su Chao nodded slightly, said politely, and then walked directly inside.
General Lei watched Su Chao and others Beiying, but found nothing suspicious.
"I hope the other party is really not an enemy."
If even the reclusive people were invaded by the other party, then it means that everyone here has betrayed to some extent, or it could explain that no powerful characters were captured before.
But he doesn't care about any of this. After all, this is their business. He only needs to ensure the safety of Guzheng. No matter who it is, don't try to destroy it under his nose.
Soon the three people stationed inside came out. After greeting General Lei, they hurriedly left to rest. They had been replaced by Su Chao and the others.
In an open space behind General Lei, a golden bead was suspended in mid-air. There was a simple shield outside. Su Chao and three people were already sitting in their respective positions, maintaining the formation below, so that the people in front of and far away could
The Golden Dragon Contact.
Even without their maintenance, the power inside can maintain itself for at least three days. The most important thing for them is to open the shield as soon as possible. As for closing it, it is not as smooth as opening it. It will take at least a day before it slowly disconnects.
While Su Chao was defending, his eyes shone with a strange light, staring at the golden shield in front of him. It was not just him, but also another subordinate. The same was true, but he was not looking at the shield, but looking at the one beside him.
The companions in front are waiting for the opportunity.
Time passed little by little, and it was already late at night outside. At this time, Su Chao finally stood up.
"City Lord Su, is there something wrong?"
Another uninformed subordinate shouted in shock.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sense of danger coming from beside him. With a "bang", his whole body rose into the air and fell heavily to the side, unconscious.
