"There's the official city ahead. It's finally here!"
A small team, far away, someone was surprised and made a noise.
Guancheng is the largest city in this gathering area. The difference is that there is no so-called wall here. It is completely open and can enter from any direction.
From the outside, you can see scattered houses. Under the silver light, they look dead and have no vitality.
However, it is only an outer city, and there is a huge isolated peak in the distance, and there is a micro city below. However, generally, no one can enter except specific members, and most of the members managing everyone and demons are inside.
Of course, it is not just a city here. There are three cities nearby. They are all centered around Gufeng. In addition to a slight interval in the middle, they can be said to be a complete city.
So we all call it Guancheng.
After more than ten days of restless driving along the way, they crossed a long distance and finally came near the official city.
It was not until this time that everyone took a rest.
"Mr. Gu, we'll separate later. Our area is in another place, relatively close to the back."
Here, Chen Lai with grapefruit has leaned over and said to Gu Zheng.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu!" Grapefruit also blushed and made a blessing gift to Gu Zheng.
"Hehe, you also helped me. Everyone is even. You should pay more attention in the future." Gu Zheng said with a smile.
It seems that the vein can be used for a long time, and there is no other side. After putting it on the mysterious thing, it can improve some quality.
"No one expected that I had reported the matter to the higher authorities, and it was estimated that more people would be sent next time." old Chen touched Grapefruit's head and said kindly.
As he was talking here, more than a dozen figures appeared in the distance. He quickly approached here, so that Gu Zheng didn't say his next words. He turned his head and looked over there.
Because there is a breath no less than his in the figure.
More than a dozen figures fell down on the periphery, scattered and stood in front of the crowd.
The first was a man with a national face who looked very dignified. Wearing a black close fitting armor, he stepped forward and shouted to the crowd.
"I'm the steward of the outer city of the official city. Who is in charge here?"
Although the tone is shouting at the people, in fact, his eyes have been only staring at Gu Zheng, obviously taking the other party as the leader here.
"It's the person I sent before. It's estimated that the other party will take over these prisoners." old Chen whispered and walked out of the team.
"My Lord, I'm the person in charge of nankuang, Chen Kai."
As he spoke, old Chen walked towards the steward.
With a wave of the steward's hand, a light gray shrouded it. Soon, under the inquiry of the other party, old Chen repeated it again.
After a while, old Chen came back again, and more than a dozen people behind the steward came forward and took away the wine rules.
Waiting for them will be thousands of years of working time.
But the steward didn't leave. Instead, he came forward with old Chen and came to Gu Zheng.
"This friend, are you new here?" the steward's tone was much warmer, just like greetings between friends.
"Yes, I fell here by chance, and then I met a group of people and escorted them back. Then you know what happened." Gu Zheng nodded and briefly introduced.
"Since it's fate to be here, it seems that you've passed the most dangerous time. How about coming to our office." the steward directly sent out an invitation.
After all, the fewer upward masters, they certainly hope that the more the better.
"I'm rude. Give you this waist token. You can enter our inner city. I'll arrange it and wait for you." the steward looked around, didn't wait for Gu Zheng's answer, then smiled, handed over a waist token and said.
"OK."
Gu Zheng didn't talk nonsense. He took it directly and put it away.
"Then don't bother. This time you helped us contact the crisis. Naturally, we will thank you. Naturally, we will thank you again later. I'll go back first."
When the steward saw Gu Zheng take it down, his face smiled more brightly, and then he left directly.
When the steward left completely, there was only iron head around Gu Zheng.
"Gu Zheng, you don't have a residence here. It's better to go to my place. Although it's small, it's good to rest." iron head came up and said.
"That's trouble."
Gu Zhengchu came and arrived. He just got a general understanding and promised directly.
The reason why he took the waist token was because he thought that if he wanted to find pan Xuan, he might really need the power of the palace.
"No trouble, no trouble at all, but some brothers won't go in. They have something. They left with old Chen just now. Let me say sorry to you." iron head waved his hand and hurriedly said.
"You are making a mountain out of a molehill about this. Will I still coerce you to do anything, and you don't need to repay your kindness? Gathering is fate. Everyone has something in hand. If I can't find the person I want, I won't stay here for too long. I just hope you don't reveal my identity."
For the departure of those people, Gu Zheng naturally knew that when he heard the words of iron head's caution, he couldn't help but say nothing.
"Mr. Gu said happily. Although I'm a demon and have done some unspeakable things before, I still admire you from the bottom of my heart. If there's anything really wrong, please tell the person you said directly. When you go back, everyone will also help you inquire."
Hearing what Gu Zheng said, a demon family behind him couldn't help the excitement in his heart and said to Gu Zheng.
The others didn't speak, but they were obviously very good.
Gu Zheng told the truth and didn't expect to use them. He just smiled and asked tietou to lead the way. The party left here.
"Mr. Gu, we'll leave first. We won't go in front. We'll go in other directions."
When approaching the outer city, most of the people said goodbye.
Gu Zheng didn't stop him. After a few words, there were only four people left.
Tietou and Yingxi, as well as members of two other teams.
"Why did they all leave? Isn't it closer to enter from the outer city?"
Walking on the road, Gu Zheng suddenly said.
Because they had taken away the wine cabinet before, they didn't leave in this direction. It seems that there are some scruples in the outer city in front of them.
"Mr. Gu, there are no scruples, but the outer city in front of him is basically people in the palace, such as some soldiers participating in the battle and their families. Although they look big, they are actually deserted after all."
Yingxi and tietou looked at each other, and finally Yingxi said.
"Are you?"
"I'm the captain of the 15th team under the first Legion. I'm a frontal fighter." iron head said proudly.
"I'm the captain of the third regiment, and I'm an assistant." Yingxi also followed.
The other two are also members of the second legion, but they are just ordinary soldiers, so they will fight with Gu. After all, their residence is in the outer city in front of them.
"Interesting, you introduce me." Gu Zheng asked with interest when he thought that everyone outside would go back to avoid injury because of the coming of the battle.
Here, there are three legions in total. The first one belongs to the combat sequence stationed on the front line, and the second one belongs to the reserve strength, which is worse than the first one. Generally, they are stationed in front of the first rotation.
The third Legion has the least number. It belongs to the kind of frontal battle, which is slightly weak, but it has special spells, which can cause damage to the enemy or add defense to Party B. It is also stationed in the front at ordinary times.
The place in front of them is their base camp. It can be said that most of them are here.
It is simply divided into East, West and south, and the place they ask for is the east city, because it is in the east of Gufeng.
Xicheng is said to be a city. In fact, it is mostly deserted. It is mostly a temporary resting place for bandits. There is no person in the palace to manage it and let the other party occupy it.
Gu Zheng knows the fishiness, and of course he knows why.
As for Nancheng, most civilians like Chen Laoyou also occupy more than half of the population and can only serve as logistics.
And Beicheng is the other place where you live alone without joining the army.
Every place is completely different.
The only thing that makes Gu Zheng a little strange is why those masters built such a place and made concerted efforts to fight against the demon soul, just to protect themselves. Some can't make sense. I'm afraid there's something hidden.
But I know too little to see through.
"Mr. Gu, you can have a rest here. I'm definitely not disturbed. I have to go outside to return to the team. I'm afraid I have to explain these missing days. It takes a lot of time. If you go out, there won't be anyone asking except for daily patrol."
In a spacious quadrangle, iron head arranged Gu Zheng and said apologetically.
"You're busy, don't ask me." Gu Zheng nodded.
As for Yingxi, the three of them left on the way. It seems that they also went to report first.
After the iron head left, Gu Zheng then laid a boundary, came out of the black tower and began to study.
Unfortunately, it only has half the control power. Gu Zheng has been studying for a long time and has no clue. This thing can play other effects. It seems that it can only be used to smash people or swallow each other.
However, Gu Zheng didn't have no harvest at all. At least he knew a way to swallow the other party steadily. If he cooperated well, at least Yin people are one Yin and one quasi.
Put the black tower away, Gu Zheng took out the yunhuang sword, put it horizontally in front of his eyes, looked at the white beads on it, and then immersed his divine consciousness.
In the jade space inside, it is still that isolated island, which has not changed much from the beginning.
The only difference is that the originally scattered Lingwei have gathered and stood stiff and neat in the open space. In front of them is Yan Yufei riding a white horse. He is standing in front of them and seems to be patrolling his army.
As soon as Gu Zheng's idea leaned over, Yan Yufei noticed something and looked up at the air. Then she nodded and disappeared from the jade space.
"Empress Yufei, there are things outside these days, so I wronged you."
In Gu Zheng's room, Yan Yufei's figure suddenly appeared. Gu Zheng immediately said sorry to her.
"I can feel it vaguely. Besides, it's bigger than my previous cultivation place, as well as white horse and Lingwei. I feel... Well, you have a familiar smell."
Yan Yufei didn't care. After all, she still bothered Gu Zheng at this time. As she said, a trace of familiar breath in the air suddenly reminded her of something. Then her face changed and more carefully distinguished that trace of extremely dark breath.
After I don't know how many years, or how many people are around me, I still smell a different breath in the very deep place.
"Familiar breath?"
Gu Zheng looked at Yan Yufei and closed his eyes. He frowned and was close to each other. He didn't make a sound to disturb each other. He wondered how he could have the familiar taste of the other party.
It seems that after being pulled in, he settled down a little and didn't contact anyone.
For a moment, the room was silent again.
After a long time, Gu Zheng saw that the other party was still thinking hard. He took out the black tower he had just put away again and wanted to see the ghosts and study it.
However, the black tower in his hand was only in his hand. Yan Yufei's body had leaned over, and his eyes stared at the black tower in Gu Zheng's hand.
He was surprised and puzzled, but he was more excited, which moved Gu Zheng's heart and said.
"Is this something from your family?"
"No, it's not his thing, but it must have been contacted by the other party, and it took a lot of time to leave a trace of breath on it, and even it was about to disappear."
Yan Yufei stepped back and took a few deep breaths before stabilizing his shaking body. Then he looked at Gu Zheng and said seriously.
"I don't know. After I fell from the top, I was plotted by others. When I woke up again, I had fallen into the tower. Later, after a lot of hardships, I accepted the black tower, but only half of it. I still need an instrument spirit to fully control it, but I don't know where the opponent is. In fact, I also need to look for the instrument spirit."
Gu Zheng simply said what he met, did not hide it, and even said some of his guesses.
"Hey, you can't force it." Yan Yufei was disappointed when Gu Zheng said so, and his eyes were slightly red because he could know some news about the other party. As a result, he was a little excited.
"Anyway, at least I got the news from the other party. I happen to be going there too. If possible, I will help you find it." Gu Zheng said comfortingly.
"That's really troublesome. I don't know what's wrong with Mr. Gu calling me out?" Yan Yufei put away his thoughts and asked.
"There's nothing wrong. I'm just afraid you're stuffy inside. Now it's safe here. I want you to come out and breathe. I don't know whether it's appropriate for you to stay. The territory of those demon souls in this place is somewhat different from the flood and famine. By the way, can you use this thing?"
When Gu Zheng heard the other party ask, he remembered his purpose and said that finally, he took out some soul sand he had intercepted. There were at least dozens of them on his small palm.
Although these things seem to be useful for the soul, they are actually useless. He has tried, and the things inside can't be absorbed at all.
"It seems nothing here. It may take some time to notice. As for me, I don't feel bored inside. Sometimes I meditate. When nothing happens, I will gather the spirit guards and train them. Although it's useless, at least let me find something to do." Yan Yufei said and picked up a few soul sands.
"Will you command the army?"
This ancient dispute is very unexpected. Before, it was still the other party's fun. It's obviously very confident to hear the other party's tone.
"Of course. At that time, my husband and I led an army together. Some people also called me the goddess of war, but it was far away."
Speaking of the past, Yan Yufei was a little proud. Obviously, his previous achievements must be brilliant. At the same time, he picked up a soul sand and swallowed it directly.
Seeing Yan Yufei swallow the soul sand, his body is motionless and his eyes are listless. It seems that he is trying his best to observe the situation in his body. Gu Zheng is not opening his mouth to disturb each other and is waiting quietly.
After half a incense burning time, Yan Yufei returned to his mind. Looking at Gu Zheng, he looked at himself worried. His heart was warm and said.
"The power contained in this thing is really different, but for me, there is an invisible barrier on it. I want to absorb at least 90% of it. For me, the remaining 10% is less than 10% effective, and it takes a lot of effort. The gains outweigh the losses. If I practice it, it may have some effect."
Yan Yufei said carefully. She understood the meaning of Gu Zheng and spent some effort to analyze it carefully from the inside to the outside. Unfortunately, it tastes like chicken ribs to her.
"Is this good for your injury? I'll try to get some pure soul crystals for you at that time. If it works better." Gu Zheng had some pity, put away the remaining soul sand and said again.
"I have understood the core of this thing. It may be useful. Of course, it is probably the same as this. It is not a pure problem. It is estimated that it has something to do with the environment here." Yan Yufei didn't refuse, but still said.
"Anyway, it doesn't cost anything to try. Now there's nothing. Why don't we go out for a walk to relieve our fatigue?" Gu Zheng invited.
This was his original purpose. If he was stuck in that small world all day, I'm afraid he would be really crazy, and the other party's injury was not good. I'm afraid she couldn't resist any golden immortal.
If you leave, you can't leave her outside. Otherwise, it's too dangerous. While there's nothing wrong now, you have to go and see if you can find the trace left by Pan Xuan.
With the intelligence of the other party, if he doesn't want others to see through her trace, no one can catch her, which he is still more confident.
"Well, I haven't been out for a long time. I didn't expect that the first time was in this ghost place. Is there anyone else in the demon soul place." just a little thought, Yan Yufei readily agreed.
Gu Zheng and Yan Yufei left tietou's residence one after another. In order to prevent Yan Yufei from being seen through, they were also covered by Gu Zheng. They looked like an ordinary civilian with no brilliance.
Walking on the cold street, the whole street was just the two of them, like a dead city. The ground was not covered, and it looked very simple.
Thinking about the general route of tietou, they walked towards Nancheng.
