Chapter 1467
After Gu Zheng waited for the exact news, his whole body began to run quickly. Since it was such an obvious feature, as long as he saw it, he would never miss it. He did not ask about the tribes on the way, but just looked at the specific location of the other party. where.
Half a month later, Gu Zheng's hurried figure suddenly stopped, flying above the high school, looking down with a heavy expression.
Under him, there should have been a relatively prosperous tribe, but now most of the houses inside have collapsed, with broken walls and messy tiles everywhere. Every building that is completely intact looks dilapidated. .
As Gu Zheng's eyes passed over it carefully, among the collapsed houses, some dried blood could still be vaguely seen, and now it had become a large black mass. A disgusting stench came from the village below, which made people feel uncomfortable. People feel like vomiting when they hear it.
The eyes of Gu Zheng even saw some decayed stumps. It was obvious that this village had suffered a catastrophe before, and almost no one could escape.
Outside this tribe, there is basically no major chaos.
After carefully exploring the bottom, he found no signs of life. Gu Zheng shook his head, raised his body again, and looked ahead, but found nothing. However, Gu Zheng felt that he was almost close to his goal. .
Because when he came over, he didn't notice this village at all, until he seemed to have passed through an invisible barrier, and the village suddenly appeared in front of him.
It seems that he has entered the blocked area, and his mission goal seems to be here.
Gu Zheng tentatively stepped back a little, but only flew a few thousand meters. Gu Zheng found that he was like a ghost hitting a wall. Even though he was flying, his position did not move at all. Only then did he think of the token in his arms.
It seems that the token is also a means for him to escape. If he encounters danger, he can also use this thing to escape from here.
Then Gu Zheng's figure flew inside again. Since the other party was trapped here, he didn't have to be so anxious.
Soon the island where Yunxia Village was located appeared in front of him.
Sure enough, from a high altitude, it looks like layers of clouds spread on the ground, and the small streams are shimmering, which is the finishing touch that makes the entire island come alive.
But at this time, the island was in a mess, just like the previous ones, and it was even more miserable. The island was twice as big as that tribe, and it was estimated that at least 50,000 people had lived there. Here, it's dead quiet now.
More importantly, Gu Zheng felt the atmosphere of fighting from above. Although it had been a long time, he could still see the tragic situation at that time, because in a corner of the island, it had been attacked by some external force and completely disappeared. There are still many traces of battles on the island, with big pits everywhere.
But it seems that the soul-eating beast is the one who wins in the end, otherwise it would not be his turn to take on this task.
"Um?"
Gu Zheng raised his head and looked at the sky. At this time, it began to slowly darken, and finally he couldn't see his fingers. A strange feeling arose in his heart, as if he was isolated from the outside world.
Feeling the breath of the sky, I realized with a thought that this was forcibly cutting off the spiritual energy input here. As a result, the spiritual energy inside became less and less, which could gradually weaken the strength of the soul-eating beast, allowing him to Physical trauma cannot be fully healed.
Gu Zheng remembered the information that the sloppy old man told him. The other party would try to break through here every once in a while. That was when he was at his weakest.
The whole sky was pitch black, and Gu Zheng didn't move. He just calmed down his breath and listened to the sound of wind in the sky, as if he was reclusive with him here.
Suddenly, he raised his brows and looked down. In the place that was originally pitch black, several groups of fire began to appear one after another, and they were as conspicuous as sparks of fire.
After a moment, Gu Zheng's figure twisted in the air, and like a light bird, he silently went straight to the bonfires, and soon stood on a damaged roof. The fire below could not illuminate the place. The entire figure is hidden in the shadows.
Gu Zheng turned around and looked around. There were hundreds of people in the crowded open space, and in one place, more and more people were pouring out from under the ground.
"Hurry up and boil the water. Are there any dry food? Don't worry about eating. You idiot, quickly make some water and put it in it. Who knows when this dark night will pass." A familiar voice sounded in the distance, and at the same time There was also a voice on the other side.
"Slow down, I tell you not to be in a hurry, otherwise I will throw you out to feed that ferocious beast."
Two figures shuttled back and forth between different bonfires, constantly giving instructions to everyone.
There are also some people with higher auras who are also maintaining order. Although the ordinary people are still panicking, at least they have calmed down on the surface.
Soon, waves of not-so-appealing fragrance filled the air.
These bonfires seem to have a clear division of labor. Some are boiling water and filling it directly after boiling. Some are roasting some mud-like things, then mashing them and filling them in the same way. Some are simmering pots of messy things. thing.
"Cuckoo"
So many people made their stomach growl at the same time, but no one ate the food to satisfy their hunger.
"Mother, I'm hungry." A little boy who was over ten years old looked at the things in the pot with greedy eyes. There were only many kinds of vegetables in it. Occasionally, a piece of diced meat came up, which made the little boy drool.
"It's almost done. Wait a little longer. When the ancestor god starts the meal, we will eat. This time, I will make sure you are full, okay." The mother hugged the boy tightly. The exposed arms were already very small, and the loose skin showed that she was not so thin before.
"Hmm!"
After a full hour, the water in the pot in front of the mother and son had been taken away. After adding it three times, it was now light and watery compared to the initial richness. The ingredients in it were even more pale, which made people lose their appetite.
The fire of the bonfire was gradually weakening, and the temperature around it gradually began to become cold. Some people with weak constitutions were already shivering, but their eyes were still eager for the food in front of them.
"It's time to eat. Everyone, go slowly!"
At this time, the first two figures finally roared and said something that made everyone happy.
Thousands of people almost couldn't wait to grab the dishes in front of them as soon as she finished speaking, not afraid of the heat, and then put them into their mouths, and finally devoured them, fearing that if they were a second late, they would be gone.
But it was true. In just a dozen breaths, each person reached out at most twice, and the food in front of them was empty, with almost no residual juice left.
A small piece of diced meat in a person's hand accidentally fell to the ground. The person picked it up without saying a word and filled it with the last one, not caring about the dirt on it.
"Mom, I'm still hungry!" The little boy before, after eating the last bite of food, looked at the empty pot and looked at his mother.
"Be good, come! I still have a little here, enough for you to eat." The mother seemed to have known this long ago, and smiled and took out half a bowl of food, which was the food she hadn't eaten just now.
He was not the only one who was not full. As soon as she took it out, the eyes of the people around her instantly shifted to her, and their eyes were full of eagerness, and they were going to grab it the next moment.
"If you dare to rob, the ancestors will not forgive you." The mother's eyes were fierce, and she glared at the surroundings, but she said.
Perhaps there had been similar things before. Anyway, when those people heard it, even if they were unwilling, they put down their bodies and simply turned their heads away, fearing that they would lose control and go up to rob.
"Alas"
Gu Zheng sighed softly. The most selfless thing in the world should be maternal love, regardless of race, time and place.
Because of the name of the soul-devouring beast, Gu Zheng was more alert, and he was sure that these people were not an illusion.
"Who are you!"
Although this sigh was very small, it was still heard by the two people who had been vigilant, and they shouted at the same time.
Gu Zheng's figure immediately fell to the back and retreated from the roof to the distance.
"Hu Ping, pack up your things and take everyone back quickly." One of the figures said to the person next to him, and then chased in the direction of Gu Zheng.
Soon he caught up and saw the figure chasing in front and shouted.
"Old bird, did you find anything?"
"No, little monkey, is it our illusion? Maybe the power that the monster accidentally emitted is affecting this place." The old bird slowly turned his head and said worriedly.
"It's hard to say. The other party's penetration here is getting stronger and stronger. I don't even dare to go outside, for fear of being trapped by the other party. Otherwise, I can't find a lot of things. It's a pity that we wasted too much time before." The little monkey walked to the old bird, and the strong disguise on his face disappeared.
"Yes!" The old bird's consciousness kept alert around, and said, "If the other party can really infiltrate here, then all the things we arranged before have been infiltrated. What should we do next? Can we really only wait to die?"
His tone was full of despair, as if there was no way out.
"Don't worry, there are still some connections in my perception. At most, it's just some aftermath coming in. We can still hold on for a while, and maybe someone will save us." The little monkey looked at the old bird's expression and said in a hurry.
The two of them were alert and then went back to the way they came back.
"How to save us? Now the darkness is getting more frequent. If one day the darkness does not fade away, this space will be completely peeled off from there and abandoned. Who can save us in the cracks of space!" The old bird's eyes were red, and he whispered, his body trembling with excitement.
"So I came!"
Gu Zheng did not expect that he could meet the two of them again. It seems that they are also trapped here.
Hearing their conversation in the darkness, he realized that the darkness was not only to prevent the other party from replying, but also to peel off this space. Is the soul-devouring beast in it so terrible? Even the manager and the others could not kill it, so they could only use this method.
However, thinking that even if the other party issued a task, he would give himself a token to escape at any time, and he knew that the other party did not seem to expect that he could solve the other party at the beginning.
Seeing the other party's negative look, he began to leave here, and Gu Zheng came out of the darkness and said.
"Who are you?"
The old bird and the little bird saw a stranger suddenly appear, and they immediately became nervous and shouted at each other.
"I haven't seen you for a while, why don't you recognize me!" Gu Zheng spread his hands and said.
"Be careful!" The little monkey gave the old man a look and raised his weapon.
"Do you know me? Haha, this place is closed. Who are you trying to fool? If you don't tell me, we won't be polite." Although he was threatening, he was still slowly retreating.
Gu Zheng saw the strange look in the other party's eyes and realized that his disguise had not been removed.
He grabbed his face and tore off his disguise, returning to his original appearance.
"It's that evil spirit!" The little monkey almost jumped up when he saw it.
"What evil spirit? What a fuss! The other party must be that monster that read our memories and transformed. Go back quickly. Those people are probably safe. We don't need to wait for more time." The old bird was not startled. Although he was also surprised when Gu Zheng returned to his original appearance, he still said calmly, and his eyes were fixed on him, fearing that Gu Zheng would suddenly attack them.
Gu Zheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the other party's serious look, but he also knew how much of a shadow the soul-devouring beast had brought to them, although he was surprised at their spirit of shielding those people with their bodies.
When did the two bandits who robbed others become so kind-hearted? But they couldn't recognize him and regarded him as a means of the soul-devouring beast, which was unforgivable.
He was originally defeated by his men, and now he had serious injuries in his body. Looking at the other party's unbelieving look, Gu Zheng knew that if he wanted to make the other party believe him, he would have to waste a lot of words, and he might not believe it.
Gu Zheng thought of a good way in his heart, smiled evilly, and rushed towards the other party in an instant.
"Be careful!" The old bird shouted at the first time.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
Gu Zheng used his absolute strength to tell them how weak they were, whose strength was not even that of the early Golden Immortal. In just one stick of incense, the two of them lay on the ground without any resistance.
This is still Gu Zheng showing mercy. If he wanted to kill the other party, the other party would have laid down earlier.
"Whoever is afraid of death is a coward! Old bird, let's fight him, and we must not let him control our bodies even if we die." The little monkey, unable to move on the ground, shouted loudly to Gu Zheng not far away, as if he could get rid of his inner fear.
"Pah"
Gu Zheng took a light step forward, and the little monkey hurriedly said again.
"I said, can we make a deal and let us go? Anyway, you can't escape, and we have a companion."
While talking nonsense, Gu Zheng noticed that the other party seemed to have something in his hand, and it seemed that he wanted to distract his attention and attack him.
"Stop it! The other party is really Mr. Gu!" The old bird, who was a little lighter, grabbed the little monkey's arm, and his next move was instantly stopped.
If it was really a monster, they would still lie on the ground, and they would probably have died long ago.
"Ah!" The monkey was a little dumbfounded. It turned out that it was Gu Zheng who came. He had just recognized the wrong person. He had been beaten for nothing. Now he was bruised and swollen. How could he face people?
"Get up, don't cry, I won't do anything to you this time!" Gu Zheng saw that they finally understood, and he removed the restrictions in their bodies, still so simple and clear.
"No, Mr. Gu, how did you get in! This place is separated from the outside!" The little monkey stood up and slapped himself a few times, and the external injuries healed in an instant.
"Of course it depends on this." Gu Zheng took out the token in his arms and put it away in a flash.
"Hiss"
"Really rich, this thing is worth a lot of money, no wonder he can come in without fear." Although it was fleeting, the two of them also recognized the thing.
As long as this thing can sense the breath here, even if you are exposed in the turbulence of space, it can accurately locate here, but it is not such a coincidence.
"It's OK. This time, the mission I took is to get rid of the soul-devouring beast here. How did you get here? Aren't you from the south?" Gu Zheng also asked curiously.
"Roar!"
At this moment, a huge roar came from the distance, and behind the darkness of the sky, a ray of colorful clouds emerged, and the whole world began to slowly light up.
"Let's leave here first. There is a camouflage at the previous location, and the soul-devouring beast you mentioned can't find us." The old bird's face changed and said to Gu Zheng.
"Let's go!"
Gu Zheng felt the infinite power, as if an ancient beast was roaring, and he didn't show off his ability. After all, he could see the danger this time, and even prepared tools for escape.
The three people hurried to the place where they had eaten. At this time, except for the mess on the ground, everyone had disappeared without a trace.
With a sweep of his mind, he didn't notice anything unusual nearby.
"This way!"
The little monkey took the lead and walked to a relatively open place, and then lifted a simple camouflage, and underneath was actually a dry well flush with the ground.
You can see the bottom at a glance. There are just some miscellaneous items piled up below. When you probe with your spiritual sense, you can find nothing unusual.
"I'll go down first!" The little monkey looked at the sky which was getting brighter and brighter, said hurriedly, and jumped down.
When the other party was about to fall below, a layer of ripples suddenly flashed in the air, swallowed up the little monkey, and disappeared.
Even though Gu Zheng saw it with his own eyes, he did not find any difference in his consciousness, as if it was an illusion.
However, he did not hesitate. As soon as the little monkey disappeared, Gu Zheng also jumped down.
As soon as he landed in the air, Gu Zheng felt that he had passed through a layer of cold membrane and found that he was standing in another place.
Before Gu Zheng could look around, the figure of the old bird appeared in front of Gu Zheng not far away, and the little monkey squeezed out a smile to greet him.
"Welcome to our last refuge!"
