Gu Zheng strolled up to the second floor. When he appeared, almost everyone above him looked over and looked at him.
He also glanced blankly, taking in the strength of this group of people, and then walked towards the only empty table.
"My friend, this table is occupied. How about sharing the table with others? Everyone must welcome you." Before Gu Zheng could get closer, a man as tall as a giant tower stood up and said condescendingly to Gu Zheng.
Although he said it very politely, the contempt and arrogance in his tone were clearly visible, especially in conjunction with the unkind look in the other person's eyes. If he didn't follow the instructions, he would be fined if he didn't drink the toast.
Gu Zheng stood there, glanced at the other party, and felt the gloating of some people around him, and some people were worried. He understood why there was no one in this perfect seat by the window. It was obvious that there was someone with a good background or strength who occupied it all year round.
here.
However, there was no way he could back down, as if he didn't hear anything, he walked straight towards this side.
This surprised most people, because the person in front of them was too reckless. They didn't see that the four people at the table next to them were all in a group. Why don't you ask about it? He was still so confident in his own strength, but most of them looked at it.
Xiang Gu Zheng's eyes became more pitiful, as if he could see the other party's tragic end.
"this..."
The kid who had just brought the food saw Gu Zheng sitting in the unoccupied position, a flash of panic flashed in his eyes, and he hesitated at his feet, not knowing whether he should go over or not.
But he didn't need to worry about it. Gu Zheng just grabbed the things on it and automatically dropped them on the table in front of him. Four dishes and a pot of wine seemed to be small portions. Each dish was very delicate and scattered on the table, almost occupying the entire table.
Most of this table.
"Boy, you are dead. This is our Lord Xiang's exclusive position." The big man who had stopped Gu Zheng before now stared at Gu Zheng, as if he was worried about something and did not move.
"I understand, I will thank Mr. Xiang later." Gu Zheng raised his hand symbolically, and then began to drink while looking outside.
But in this way, Gu Zheng's wish to find out the news failed. Now almost everyone outside is talking about him, and Mr. Xiang, whose name sounds ambiguous, which allows him to get to know the other party a little bit.
In short, it doesn't sound that bad, and he is the first person in charge here. His strength is in the mid-level of Da Luo, but almost most of them are busy outside, seeming to want to find some mysterious monsters nearby. They are just resting.
, or just come back if you have something to do and take a rest here.
He sounds like a responsible leader, but he also has a weakness that everyone knows, which is too much vanity. Other than that, he is quite popular.
They couldn't get any news here. While looking outside, Gu Zheng began to monitor other places, and soon learned about what happened here.
Just as Gu Zheng guessed, everything here has something to do with those mysterious demon clans. According to the information learned here, the other party is a group of demon clans with the goal of enslaving humans. In addition to Chunhua Town, there are hundreds of thousands of people.
They were all kidnapped by the other party. Now that they know that the other party is very strong, there is almost no big discovery.
Later, after learning the intelligence here, we prepared to send people to evacuate here. Although there had been sporadic incidents before, none were so serious. The other party tried to sneak in and cause greater damage here, and even rushed over brazenly.
, fought with this side, causing huge losses. Later, Lord Xiang came to the front from the rear and formulated a series of measures to stabilize the situation.
Including the retreat plan, this town, and various formations, they were all measures taken by the other side to stabilize the situation. However, there were still some monsters trying to sneak in and cause trouble, but unfortunately the place was extremely cunning.
Lord Xiang was not as strong as the other party, so he was holding back his energy. As a result, they could only constantly mobilize more people for defense, which became the face that Gu Zheng saw now.
However, from Gu Zheng's point of view, this scene seemed weird, because if the other party really aimed to enslave human beings, how could even Lianyi's small team be able to completely occupy a large area with just this few manpower.
It's a pity that from what he heard others talking about, it seems that they are just some demon clan. After all, they have saints above them, so they are not worried about each other at all, not to mention the great goddess Nuwa.
Many powerful humans in the rear didn't pay much attention to it at this time. They were all trying to see who could enter the first quasi-sage first and compete for the strength of the first human race, so they didn't put much thought on this at all. Of course, there were also
Some people noticed something was wrong with the demon clan and took action, but not with much force.
Because the current mainstream of the human world is to take advantage of the current situation to climb up the cultivation level and not care about these external things at all. Therefore, the current actions are taken. There are only a few powerful sects and some powerful people sent by families.
There are also some individual people who want to think that there is no point in practicing hard and come here to see if there is any opportunity of their own.
Of course, people like this are also very welcome to the other side. As long as there is no problem with their identity, they can come and go freely here. However, it is not that easy to enter Chunhua Town. Who knows if there are other people's spies here. If they want to get in, they have to prove it 100%.
Otherwise, just help outside.
For example, Gu Zheng is basically inaccessible. Only people they know will enter to protect them as much as possible.
Although this was a bit unkind, there has been no harassment from the other party since then.
And Gu Zheng also understood why there was a charge. It was because some Sanren were shameless and ate and drank here for free. Is it because they lacked food and drink, or because they were angry and took advantage of this place. Master Xiang directly issued this order
, that’s why we are now stopping people to ask for money, which makes sense.
After only staying for a short while, Gu Zheng had almost figured out what was going on here. Now he was forcibly mobilizing those humans to go back to the city behind. It was a small sect that usually operated there, but it was too powerful.
Weak, currently completely taken over by Lord Yan.
The situation now is naturally different from Mantian. Even Gu Zheng feels that it is difficult to find information about Zhao Man. According to Gu Zheng's current thinking, it is very likely that Zhao Man was captured by the other party, this group of mysterious monsters.
.
The other party only wants to enslave human beings, and does not say that they want to kill all human beings. This may not be normal for other races, but it is normal for humans. Who makes the other party have a saint above their head? The current demon clan is not as arrogant as it was at the beginning. They dare to even cover a city.
Kill everyone in a city.
The main reason is that after Buzhou Mountain fell, everyone showed up and even warned the demon clan. Otherwise, the demon clan would not be so honest. They would definitely take advantage of the loud noise and directly attack the humans. How could there be any seemingly peaceful situation now?
scene.
But Gu Zheng also knows that with the disappearance of all the saints, sooner or later the demon clan will slowly know what will happen after there is no restraint. It is really unimaginable, so everything Gu Zheng is doing now is to strengthen
With human strength, I hope that with enough time to discover, the opportunities mentioned by the master will appear.
According to his guess, something unusual must have happened here, but he had no idea what it was.
Feeling that there was nothing here, Gu Zheng decided to sneak into the city first to see if there were any clues. However, before he could stand up, he felt many people behind him exclaim, and some people shouted directly.
"Sir Xiang."
Gu Zheng turned his gaze from outside and saw a middle-aged man with an average appearance walking towards him surrounded by people. He keenly noticed that the man seemed to be injured, and he didn't know who he was fighting.
"This fellow Taoist doesn't know where I offended you. After finally resting for a while, you occupied it. Who doesn't know that this is my exclusive position."
Lord Xiang looked at Gu Zheng and said expressionlessly, and those who knew him well knew that he was already angry.
Is he angry? He is naturally very angry, because this position is occupied by the other party, and he is slapped in the face. Although he did not explicitly say that it has been reserved for himself, but no one knows, it is obviously difficult for him.
However, Gu Zheng stood up calmly and said to him with a slight apology, "Master Xiang, I'm really sorry. I just came out of seclusion. I really didn't know that this was your position. Now I will get out of the way."
.”
"It's no wonder. A guy who just came out of seclusion probably doesn't even know who Lord Xiang is."
"It's a good reward to see it clearly. It's a pity. Is Mr. Xiang so easy to talk to?"
"Just now someone was clearly blocking him, but he still sat down. This shows that he is really arrogant."
After Gu Zheng finished speaking, the people around him were either relieved, or gloating about his misfortune, or they couldn't stand the way he pretended to make arrangements. In short, the whole second floor rang.
"Shut up!" Mr. Yan immediately shouted loudly, and no one spoke.
"Newcomer, whether you really don't know or pretend you don't know, I don't have time to argue with you now. If anyone wants to occupy my position in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
Master Xiang snorted coldly, and then led his people away from here. It seemed that he was no longer in the mood to rest here.
Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, everyone went back one after another, but their conversations also shifted to Gu Zheng.
"He will be in trouble this time. If I were him, I would leave here now to avoid being seized by the other party."
"Yes, if he is really new here, it won't be a big deal if he gives Mr. Xiang a lot of face. But to say this, don't you think it's stupid?"
"Absolutely. Moreover, he is stupid in his cultivation. He is so powerful. How can he be so powerful as Master Xiang? Not to mention that there are so many people behind Master Xiang. Even if he goes back, he won't be able to reap his good fruits."
"If you ask me, just stay away from the center. Anyway, it's so big outside, it's better than here."
Most of them are not optimistic about Gu Zheng, and they all have a look of regret, but there are a few people who admire Gu Zheng very much.
Gu Zheng ignored these people and went straight downstairs to go back. A little fat man ran down from behind and shouted at Gu Zheng.
"Brother, wait for me!"
Gu Zheng looked back and frowned, because he didn't know him and was sure there was no connection before, and if he read correctly, the other party was still a demon clan, one whose strength had reached the peak of the Golden Immortal.
The reason why the other party is said to be small is because the other party is about the same height as Mantian. He looks like a junior high school student, but his body is as round and round as a balloon. Even his neck can't be seen under his head in the distance. The other party is running all the way.
It looked like a ball rolling on the ground, giving it an inexplicable sense of joy.
"Brother, big brother!" The little fat man ran such a short distance, as if he had run tens of thousands of kilometers. He was out of breath. Standing in front of Gu Zheng, he only had time to shout a few times before he began to gasp for air.
"Is there something wrong?" Gu Zhengdan said calmly.
"Brother, don't get me wrong, I am truly one of our own." The little fat man thought of something, and quickly touched his body, and soon took out a red card, "I am the guardian demon of the Jiutian Sect, and I was sent to
The people who deal with things here have been raised by humans since childhood, and they also hate those monsters."
He didn't know how many times he had said it, but it came out of his mouth very neatly, without any sense of inconsistency. However, Gu Zheng knew that the meaning of this red sign was unconditional trust, and anyone who saw the sign must cooperate.
His instructions, to put it in a nutshell, the number of red signs here will never exceed ten, almost all of them are of the same status as Mr. Xiang.
As for other ordinary people, they have green brands, which are better than white, which means they are trustworthy. Most of them are people who have come to support from behind, and there are also some casual cultivators.
"What's the matter?" Gu Zheng just glanced at it blankly and then asked.
"It's nothing, I just want to get to know Big Brother. It's been a long time since I've seen Big Brother be so courageous, and even Lord Xiang dares to push back." The little fat man extended his thumb, gave Gu Zheng a big thumbs up, and said with great admiration.
Gu Zheng could tell at a glance that the other party was sincerely praising and admiring him, as if Mr. Xiang was something special. He shook his head and said, "I know, I'll go back first if there's nothing else to do."
"No, big brother! I've already called you big brother, can we get to know each other?" The little fat man was anxious.
"not good."
Gu Zheng continued to walk forward and said without looking back.
"No, big brother, I can't stand there are a lot of people here. I can't help but find someone I like. Can I get to know you? You can be my big brother and I can do whatever you want." I don't know how long this little fat man stayed in the cold, crying.
shouted and said.
Gu Zheng stopped and turned his head to look over, "Seriously?"
"Seriously!" the little fat man said with certainty.
The two of them sat down in a restaurant with a small crowd at the back. The little fat man, like a magician, brought out many good things and filled the table with them. Then he said politely, "Brother, please eat."
Gu Zheng didn't move, he just looked at the other person and said curiously, "The way you look now reminds me of some people."
"Is the eldest brother talking about an acquaintance? Is it possible that eldest brother's friends are as fat as me?" Xiaopang also asked in surprise.
"No, I was just very hungry for three days and suddenly saw what food looked like." Gu Zheng shook his head. In fact, he was thinking in his heart that he was just like a man who had been bachelor for forty years and suddenly saw a beautiful woman. He was so hungry that he couldn't choose what to eat.
.
"Hey, is it that obvious? Mainly because I'm too boring. Everyone here ignores me, as if everything is my fault, and they are submissive. Only a few people are pleasing to the eye and are not here." The little fat man stretched out his hand to round me.
Dudu put his hand on the back of his head and chuckled.
"That Master Xiang?" Gu Zheng asked after thinking about it.
"That's right, it's all his fault. I just grabbed the table several times and he didn't notice it. It was a waste of money," the little fat man said angrily. "It's a pity that no one dares to control the other party's power. I'm so angry. Could it be that they
It’s really disappointing that I can’t kill you.”
Gu Zheng nodded slightly. When he sat down before, he could feel that Xiaopang had a good impression of him. He was one of the few monsters who said good things to him. He was the only monster in the whole restaurant, so he was so conspicuous.
"Big brother is still awesome. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to be so confident. I would look like you could hit me if you have the ability. It's really cool that I'm letting you off the hook. I'd like to give you a toast to big brother." The little fat man said with excitement.
He picked up the glass of wine poured in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
Not to mention anything else, except for the human race, no one else can be so efficient.
Gu Zheng just raised his glass and took a sip, then put it down and asked, "I don't know the other party. At worst, I will go somewhere else. How can I catch up with him?"
"Brother said it well. If I hadn't been able to escape easily, I would have wanted to do this a long time ago." The little fat man said longingly.
"I just came out of seclusion. Do you know what big things happened here? It was just simple news that others repeatedly discussed." Gu Zheng asked immediately without taking it.
"Of course I know. I came here just to help with this matter. As a result, after irritating Mr. Xiang, I became the bare commander, and the few subordinates were taken away by the other party." The big fat man said softly.
This is also one of the reasons why he hates the other party.
After being defeated again and again, depending on the level of one's own or the opponent's subordinates, in addition to suffering a loss, one can only shout a few words, fearing that the other party will hear.
"Then what do you know that others don't know? Or do you need to keep it secret?" Gu Zheng continued to ask.
"What can be kept secret? This is a transit in itself. You have to give up when you turn around. There are traps in Chunhua Town, and there are additional detection mechanisms inside. If you are accidentally checked, you will be discovered. If you want to catch the other party coming in,
Also, I heard from my subordinates that they seem to have found some traces of the other party here, but there is nothing specifically. Everything else is not important. It is just some nonsense like being attacked by the other party." Xiaopang thought for a moment and then said.
.
Gu Zheng thought of Master Xiang's injury. It seemed that he had fought with the opponent and suffered a small loss.
"By the way, brother, are you looking for someone?" Xiaopang suddenly said from the side.
"Why do you see it?" Gu Zheng said casually without any hesitation in his heart.
"When I was in the restaurant, I saw my elder brother lost in thought from time to time. His eyes were paying attention to many places, as if he was looking at something. Apart from the fact that many people are missing, there is nothing to worry about here." Xiaopang explained.
.
"Good look, yes, a friend of mine disappeared here." Gu Zheng didn't expect that the other party would observe so carefully. He really looked to see if he could find any traces, but it was a pity that it took too long, even if there were some, there might not be any.
.
"That's what I do, but once you disappear, it's too hard to find, or you try to get a green sign. I remember that in Chunhua Town, there are special people who collect unused things. Basically, they are not ordinary things. Specifically,
I don’t know what it is, but just for this situation, many of us have also disappeared mysteriously. They are all people who came here to experience before, and many of them have backgrounds." Xiaopang suggested to Gu Zheng.
Got an opinion.
"If you have a green card, you can go in directly. Green cards are easy to get. You just need to do a few more tasks."
