The more people there are, the slower the progress will be.
There were more than thirty bandits, starting from Ma Duo, and everyone had a smile on their face. They seemed to have seen hope and happiness. Their needs were actually very simple, as long as they had enough food and safety.
Ma Duo felt that he had done the right thing and brought them here with him. At least everyone would be able to eat enough these days. In just five days, the children who were originally sallow and thin now had a rosy complexion and seemed to have gained some weight.
The same goes for those women. They can eat well every day and look better than before.
They originally had six children, but unfortunately, the other three children were too young and did not survive. In a poor bandit den like them, the survival rate of children is even lower, and those who survive are all lucky.
With so many people in the group, Gu Zheng couldn't stay in other villagers' homes. With so many people, the village didn't dare to let them in, so he could only stay with them, eating and sleeping in the open air every day.
Fortunately, five days later, they encountered a big market and got two more horses. Gu Zheng made two more simple carriages, so that the children and the thin women could ride on the carriages and be able to carry
The food supply has also become more abundant.
It was a thousand miles from Wujia Town. Gu Zheng and the others walked for twenty days, with an average of only fifty miles per day, which was more than twice as slow as when they left before. But no matter what, they finally came back.
, returned to Huiyuan Village.
"How could this happen? Where are the people in the village?"
Aunt Cui entered the village happily, but she soon became frightened. There was no sound or popularity in the village. Aunt Cui entered several people's homes. No one was there. There was dust everywhere. It was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
.
Not only that, some people's homes also look very messy, and you can tell what happened before.
"Wu You, Ma Duo!"
Gu Zheng's face darkened a little, and he immediately called out. Wu You and Ma Duo stepped forward together, both looking at Gu Zheng.
"You two, get on those two horses and go immediately to the surrounding villages to check. If anyone is there, ask them what's going on!"
Gu Zheng ordered them, and the two of them immediately took the order and left. They had three horses, but Xiao Bailong would never let others ride them. He could only ride the other two horses. Wu You was familiar with this place, and the horses were mostly smart.
It is most suitable for the two of them to go and inquire.
"Aunt Cui, let's go home first!"
Gu Zheng called Aunt Cui, who was already crying. In fact, Gu Zheng also understood that the village might have been damaged by rice seedlings, and all of this was inseparable from him.
At first, he was weak and had no choice but to escape, otherwise it would be useless to stay. For the sake of the villagers, he also spread the news, hoping that the villagers would go out and hide. But he didn't know how many people would believe it and how many people would actually hide.
Looking at it now, the monster must have come to take revenge, but I don't know what the losses will be.
There is nothing that can be done about it. It has been doomed since Gu Zheng entered the preaching scene. Unless he is willing to surrender and let the two people take him away, this is impossible. Although Gu Zheng does not kill, he is not pedantic either.
People who sacrifice themselves for others.
To put it bluntly, he is responsible, but it is the monster that kills and eats people, so it is all his fault, which does not make sense.
The root of everything is still the monster. The monster has been eating the hearts of children like them for a long time and deceiving them. When the monster continues to grow and become stronger, the losses on their side will only get bigger and bigger, and sooner or later they will still be there.
One day.
Aunt Cui returned to her home. His house was in a mess, and it was obvious that it had been searched.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng had taken her away in the first place. If she had stayed, the result could be imagined. The monster would not show mercy to anyone, and would only stay if she helped him harm others like the two people before.
Wu You and Ma Duo came back soon. They both found a nearby village. There were people in the village there and asked about the situation.
The monster did come, looking for the people who killed his men. After catching the people, the captured people quickly told him who had killed his men, so they went to Huiyuan Village.
Only half of the people in Huiyuan Village hid out. This was because they knew that Aunt Gu Zheng and Cui and the others were in their own village, so they would rather believe that they were there and hide out first. The remaining half who didn't hide were almost all killed by the monster.
Brutal killing.
The monster also said that if Gu Zheng does not return the treasure to him within a year, he will come back and continue to massacre the village.
As a result, people from Huiyuan Village naturally did not dare to come back again. The remaining half of the people moved collectively. No one knew where they had gone, at least not the nearby villagers. No nearby villagers dared to take them in.
Can make them go away.
"Another village plagued by monsters. If the monsters are not eliminated, it will be difficult for our lives to be stable!"
Ma Duo hammered the tree next to him so hard that his hands broke the skin. He hated monsters the most. His home was plagued by monsters. In the end, only the four of them ran out. The four of them were lucky, otherwise they would have run away.
Don't fall off.
This village was also harmed by monsters, which resonated with him.
"Aunt Cui, don't worry, I have a certain responsibility for what happened this time, and I will definitely avenge you!"
Gu Zheng comforted Aunt Cui. Half of the villagers were killed, most of whom he had seen before, and he felt uncomfortable.
But this is the prehistoric era. Let alone now, even in the prehistoric era when the human race has become more powerful in later generations, monsters will still harm people. It’s just that the monsters were not so rampant at that time. Smart monsters did not dare to harm people, only a few stupid ones.
Monsters only harm people. Once discovered, they will be quickly eliminated.
Unfortunately, now is not that time. At this time, the human race is still very weak. Even if some immortals can help the villagers take revenge, the number is limited, and most of the murdered villagers will not get justice.
"Ma Duo, Wu You, take everyone with you and head to Fucheng first!"
Gu Zheng suddenly said something. He originally planned to come to Aunt Cui's house and let everyone live here, but now it seems that it is no longer possible. There is no one in the village, and it is not safe for them to live there.
Gu Zheng had planned to go to Fucheng before. Later, he changed his plan because of the monster incident. Now he just moved forward the original plan.
"Sir, what about you?"
Ma Duo looked at Gu Zheng worriedly. Although he looked rough and arrogant, he was smarter than Wu You. When Gu Zheng said this, he already understood what Gu Zheng meant.
"I'm going to avenge everyone. Don't worry, I'm sure to deal with that monster!"
Gu Zheng's eyes flashed sharply. He had not originally planned to find the monster so quickly. Although there was the Immortal-Slaying Gourd, the Immortal-Slaying Gourd was not omnipotent after all. It would be best to allow him to cultivate to the fourth level and reach the realm of immortals before going.
But what happened to the villagers in Huiyuan Village made him unable to wait any longer. If he continued to wait, he would only blame himself. In any case, he was also responsible for this. If he had not exposed all this, the monster would not have come to his door.
He wouldn't have harmed so many people in Huiyuan Village.
He must avenge this revenge, and he must do it now.
"I am coming too!"
Tao suddenly said something, although he only knew how to play and didn't talk much at ordinary times, but at the critical moment he understood the danger of ancient disputes, so he had to follow.
"You can't go, just Xiao Bailong and I will go. You go to Fucheng with everyone and set off early tomorrow morning!"
Gu Zheng immediately shook his head. If Tao cultivated to the realm of immortals, it would be okay to let him go, but he hadn't arrived yet. At this time, Tao was only one step away from the realm of immortals, and he might break through at any time.
If Tao had practiced like him, he would have already broken through. Unfortunately, the two of them have fundamentally different temperaments, and it would be impossible for Tao to be like him. Let's not mention these assumptions.
"I'm more confident on my own. You have to follow Aunt Cui and the others. If someone bullies them on the way, they won't be bullied as long as you are here!"
Seeing that Tao was staring at him, Gu Zheng went to coax him again. There were so many people with Aunt Cui and the others, so it was unlikely that they would be bullied on the road. Gu Zheng said this to coax Tao and let him go together.
Tao followed him, not as a helper but as a burden. At this time, we could only separate.
"Remember, protect Aunt Cui and the others, and wait for me to join you!"
Gu Zheng said something to Tao again, and Tao reluctantly nodded. From the time they came to the prehistoric era to now, Gu Zheng and Tao have never been separated. They usually separated occasionally just for fun, but this time they had to be separated for several days.
Gu Zheng also felt uncomfortable.
But it has to be this way, he is going for revenge, not for fun.
However, he was indeed sure. Based on the information Wu You and Ma Duo found out, Gu Zheng already had a rough guess about this monster.
This monster comes flying and is wrapped in black smoke, which shows that the monster's state is to refine the gas and reach the state of becoming a god. There is no need to fly in smoke. The monster wrapped in smoke is similar to the immortal wielding a sword.
It is only needed during the refining and gasification stage.
Of course, this is not absolute, but this monster is definitely not a golden immortal. A golden immortal will not do this. Just like a golden immortal, it is impossible to fly with a sword. It is very embarrassing for them.
.
Even the Sword Immortals from Shushan do not wield swords when they reach the Golden Immortal realm. However, some disciples who have transformed into gods or even returned to the Void realm like to wield swords. It is just a habit. After all, they basically no longer know how to do it when they reach the Golden Immortal realm.
The Golden Immortal's sword actually affected their speed.
It would be better if the opponent is a Heavenly Immortal. In this way, Gu Zheng will be more certain. If it is in the Qi Transformation stage, Gu Zheng will be more certain. He now has the strength of the fifth-middle stage. With his Tiexian Immortal Art, even in the Qi Transformation state
Even monsters cannot be killed with one blow.
As long as he is given a chance, the monster will definitely be killed by him.
Early the next morning, Wu You, Ma Duo and the others left with Aunt Cui and her group, and Tao was among them. As Tao left, he looked back three times, having agreed with Gu Zheng to come over as soon as possible.
Although Tao is young, he doesn't understand anything anymore. After so long, his intelligence has grown rapidly. At this time, he is definitely much stronger than an ordinary four-year-old child.
Three days after Wu You and the others set off, Gu Zheng rode on the little white dragon and headed towards the monster's lair.
When he interrogated the two monster human subordinates before, Gu Zheng asked where the monster's cave was. It was more than a thousand miles away from here in a place called Hualong Mountain. Gu Zheng was alone and riding a small white dragon.
, can travel almost two to three hundred miles in one day. Xiao Bailong's endurance is very strong, so he can arrive within five days.
Gu Zheng was also worried that if he failed, the monster would come back to take revenge, so he deliberately set off a few days later so that Wu You and the others would be far away and would be much safer.
Five days later, Gu Zheng's small body was riding on a horse, looking at a towering mountain in the distance. This was Hualong Mountain. There were no people within a hundred miles around, but people a hundred miles away had heard that there were monsters here, but monsters
He had never done any evil, so he didn't pay much attention to it and only heard it as a rumor.
The reason why this monster doesn't do evil is because he has two smart human subordinates who help him catch human children. They use deception to get humans to send them over on their own initiative and are grateful to them. Now those two humans have been captured by the ancients.
Try to eliminate it. There is no such method for this monster. I'm afraid it won't be long before it comes back to harm the world.
However, Gu Zheng will not give him this opportunity again. No matter what, he will be eradicated today.
The biggest problem for Gu Zheng now is that he is not well-informed. When he interrogated the two people before, he still did not interrogate in detail.
He knew that there was more than one monster, but how many had reached the realm of transformation. Gu Zheng didn't know clearly, and he hadn't asked before, but it could be seen from the answers of the two that this monster was the biggest boss among all the monsters.
Everyone calls him king.
Looking at it this way, he is the most likely to be the only monster in the Qi Transformation realm.
As long as he has not reached the realm of transformation, Gu Zheng, the little demon who has gained intelligence, doesn't care at all. Now that he has the strength of the mid-level fifth level, these little demons are definitely no match for him.
However, Gu Zheng was still prepared for the worst, that is, the opponent had more than one monster in the Qi Transformation realm. In that case, after he killed one, the others would be on guard, and he would need to find a way to escape.
To escape from a monster that has reached the realm of immortals, you must make arrangements in advance.
At the foot of the mountain, Gu Zheng began to arrange simple formations. These formations were not very powerful, but they could hinder people in the immortal realm for a period of time, giving him enough time to escape. Gu Zheng arranged more than one to ensure that he could escape, or
Give yourself enough time to activate the Immortal Killing Gourd.
After doing all this, another day passed, and early the next morning, after Gu Zheng practiced breath adjustment, he walked towards the mountain.
Xiao Bailong asked him to put it aside. Xiao Bailong is the king of horses, and ordinary people cannot rely on him. But this time he is dealing with monsters, and there are still monsters in the realm of immortals. Xiao Bailong can't help much.
It's better to let it wait outside.
If Gu Zheng can't go back, the little white dragon can leave on his own. He is the king of horses, so he can just go back to the place where he lives.
Gu Zheng was also prepared not to go back, including Tao's place, but all these arrangements were made for Ma Duo, Tao didn't know about it, and no one except Ma Duo knew about his arrangements.
When they came to the foot of the mountain, Gu Zheng did not walk, but set up an incense table. After setting up the incense table, Gu Zheng took off the gourd that had been tied around his waist and placed it in the center of the incense table.
Finally, he took out the box containing the Mirage Dragon Balls and opened the box.
As soon as the box was opened, the breath of the dragon beads immediately spread out. After a while, a black smoke appeared on the mountain. Soon, the black smoke rolled down a monster with a face full of green scales and two small pointed heads flying down.
Monsters probably still look like humans, but they have not fully transformed into humans.
"Doll, Mirage Dragon Ball, are you the one who killed me and robbed the doll of my Mirage Dragon Ball?"
After the monster landed on the ground, it did not attack directly, but asked Gu Zheng a question. Gu Zheng smiled slightly, suddenly bent down, and held his fists against the incense table.
His actions made the monster confused. He looked at Gu Zheng in confusion and soon started laughing.
"You want to beg for mercy, but it's no use. If you dare to kill my people, I will definitely eat you. Your baby has thin skin and tender meat, and the heart must be delicious. But since you took the initiative to send it to my door, I won't
Kill your other people!"
"Baby, please turn around!"
Gu Zheng suddenly said something, and the monster frowned again, not understanding what Gu Zheng meant by what he said. As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, the gourd on the incense table suddenly turned, and a yellow light came out.
"baby!"
The monster's eyes lit up, but before he could react, his vision suddenly felt wrong. He looked towards the sky. Soon, he saw a headless body spurting blood.
This body was so familiar, it seemed like it was him. He seemed to understand something, and he danced and wanted to move, but soon his vision went dark and he didn't know anything anymore.
At this time, there is no list of gods, and it can still preserve its true spirit. If it is killed by the Immortal-killing Gourd, it is a death. The dead person cannot die again.
Gu Zheng sighed softly. Everything went smoother than he imagined. He didn't talk nonsense with the monster. He came to take revenge and kill the monster. The monster himself admitted that he had done everything.
.
The monster did not say that he killed the people who returned to the source village, but he said that he would not kill them anymore, which is equivalent to admitting it.
Gu Zheng's strength is not as good as him. It would be fine if he were in other realms. The difference between the realm of immortals and non-immortals is too big. Moreover, he is too weak now and cannot use many powerful immortal skills, so he must be cautious. This monster comes up and does not snatch it.
Longzhu asked arrogantly, playing into Gu Zheng's hands.
As the saying goes, bad people die by talking too much, and it’s not unreasonable.
The monster died, and soon a round shape appeared. It was a big blue python with dragon horns on its forehead. If you continue to practice, there is a great hope that you can transform into a dragon.
No wonder he occupied Hualong Mountain, probably because he wanted a good fortune, and he might have named the mountain, but none of this mattered to Gu Zheng, what mattered was that he had already taken revenge on the villagers.
This is a monster in the realm of transformation. Although it is a snake monster, it also has many treasures.
Gu Zheng was not polite, he came forward with a knife, first dug out the snake's gallbladder, and then peeled off the snake's skin. Gu Zheng didn't want the snake meat. The monster already had intelligence, and Gu Zheng wouldn't eat it.
It's his flesh. It always feels weird to eat his flesh.
But his snake tendons are good things, not as good as dragon tendons, but much better than ordinary animal tendons. They can be used to make a good bow and arrow. After cleaning up the monster's body, Gu Zheng sat there quietly and did not go up the mountain.
