Chapter 1524
"We will assist Elder Gu!" the gray-haired old man said respectfully below.
"Elder Gu, are you in a hurry to go to Nan Yao City? If not, I will take you here to have a look and notify you of your arrival so that everyone will not worry too much!" At this time, Yao Yu said to Gu Zheng in a gentle manner.
"My business is not urgent. There will be no problem for a while in the evening." Gu Zheng stood up from the chair and said to them.
"That's great. We will lead Elder Gu to inspect and tell him the current situation in detail!" Yao Yu said happily.
"Lu Jun, go to the back and tell him to welcome Elder Gu tonight. Make good preparations and don't let those humans mess it up!" The gray-haired old man ordered Lu Jun.
Lu Jun nodded and said yes, then took his leave to Gu Zheng and left from the other side.
"Elder Gu, please!"
The three people accompanied Gu Zheng and began to walk here.
"There are less than 4,000 people here now, and a small half of them are still affiliated humans. Most of the passionate young people have left here, and those who remain here are all diamonds worn down by time." Yao Yu said as he walked.
They first walked through the passage on the left, where most of the aquatic creatures live.
During the conversation, Gu Zheng also learned that the gray-haired old man's name was Yu Ye, and his body should be a fish, and the other old man was called Pi Yuanlong, a turtle that had lived for many years. He was born from the Tianhe River and remembered most of the memories from the opening of spiritual wisdom to the present. He was a living library. Even Yao Yu and others had to ask him about many things. In addition, his brain was a little stupid, and he just relied on his long life to practice to the present.
Here Gu Zheng saw many aquatic creatures, but they all returned to human form and lived here. Most of them were very common water creatures, and their cultivation was not low. However, he did not see many powerful creatures. Most of them showed that their spiritual wisdom was opened, and they occasionally absorbed the black air emitted underwater, and then their cultivation made rapid progress.
However, most people were not in a good mood. Even Gu Zheng's arrival did not make them more excited. No wonder the people who told him that they were passionate were gone, so that he would not be very disappointed when he saw this scene.
In the back, to Gu Zheng's surprise, there was a place connected to the outside world, like a swimming pool, with many creatures that had recovered their bodies floating in it. They wanted to call all these people out, but Gu Zheng stopped them.
After going around in a big circle for half a day, he roughly looked at all these people. In the end, Gu Zheng came to the conclusion that there were too few people in the water tribe. Even if some of them left, there would only be a little over 10,000.
No wonder they had to be suppressed directly, because the environment here was like this, and the number of people in the water tribe would only decrease. Just like in the ocean, it can be said that it was almost all the world of the water tribe.
The unique environment here allows other birds, beasts, and various creatures living on land to be relatively more. Most of them opened their spiritual wisdom by accidentally absorbing black air, and some opened their spiritual wisdom for other reasons.
The two are completely different. The former can never contact the black air in the body, and even if they leave this special place, their cultivation will drop by more than half, and they will be in a daze all day long, as if they have lost their souls. In fact, the whole person is useless.
The latter is less reduced, at most they are a little depressed, at least most of their combat power is still there.
Therefore, including the water tribe, they are all special search teams, entering the nearby mountains and forests to find those demon tribes who have just opened their spiritual wisdom, bringing them back and training them a little, they are qualified warriors, saving them thousands of years of exploration.
As a price, of course, they lose a little freedom, but overall the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
When they came back, they saw that Lu Jun had been here for a long time, and when he saw them coming back, he hurriedly said.
"The food is ready, please let Elder Gu enter the play!"
Unknowingly, it was already late outside, but under the water, I don’t know where they learned about the changes in the outside world.
Gu Zheng certainly did not refuse their kindness, and under the leadership of Lu Jun, he walked in another direction.
This side doesn't look much different from the other side. After the previous section, some human faces appeared in front of Gu Zheng.
These people are men, women, young and old. From the complexion, everyone at least doesn't have a yellow face. Except that everyone's skin color looks a little pale, and many people have a lot of green psoriasis on their bodies, which seems to be caused by living underground for a long time.
You know, this is the place of aquatic creatures. This place has taken good care of humans, but there is still a dampness in the air that will never fade away.
When these humans saw Gu Zheng coming, they were not very scared, but just hid aside and looked at Gu Zheng curiously.
"Relatively speaking, we are much better to humans here. At least we let them eat and don't abuse them. Some humans up there are actually almost like slaves." Yu Ye said with a look on his face.
Gu Zheng nodded slightly and didn't say anything.
Soon in a larger open place, a large dining table was filled with various foods, and there were even some common fish and shrimps on it.
On the side facing the main seat of the dining table, there was a transparent wall, but the scenery of the river outside could be seen, and some ordinary fish were swimming around outside. For Lu Jun and his friends, this kind of occasion was the most formal and beautiful environment.
This time, the host and the guests were very happy. After eating and drinking, Gu Zheng came to a room arranged for him to stay.
When Gu Zheng was the only one left, Gu Zheng set up a barrier around him, so that he had time to continue to think about his next things.
He had successfully mixed into the position of the great elder of the water tribe, and it seemed that there should be no problem. The key was that the water tribe was a little weak at present, and perhaps his identity was not taken seriously, but it was much better than breaking in alone.
After all, if he wanted to rescue Elder Ye, he had to get close to the place where he was imprisoned, and then find a way to secretly transfer him.
The demon tribe would definitely keep a close watch on him, and he could not get close without any background.
However, he still didn't know whether Elder Ye was dead or imprisoned somewhere else. He had to wait until he got enough information before he could proceed to the next step.
After careful consideration, Gu Zheng had a rough plan in his mind. The rest of the matter could only wait and see how things developed.
Next, Gu Zheng stretched out his palm, and a ball of purple lightning appeared in the palm, and a ball of water mist appeared in the other palm. The two kept flashing in the palm. After a long time, he closed his palms and breathed a sigh of relief.
Since he was pretending to be a water tribe, some moves obviously couldn't be used, and he also needed to simply master the following spells that Zi Yi could master. Before leaving, he had to make sure that he didn't reveal any flaws.
Next, Gu Zheng turned his wrist, and five jade rings of different colors appeared in his hand. Several different colors of light suddenly shone colorfully in the whole room.
This was the magic weapon that his own Captain Lan gave him as compensation. Although the power of a single jade ring was indeed a bit weaker than that of the Nine Dragon Cover, these five jade rings could be combined with each other or separately, which was very flexible.
And when all five are combined together, the power can even be comparable to some weaker innate spiritual treasures.
Not only that, it seems that the other party also knows that Gu Zheng is not alone, and there is also a bell with silver light, which can not only attack with sound waves, but also shock the soul, as if it is a pet given to Gu Zheng.
However, Gu Zheng first sacrificed this set of jade rings. Each of these jade rings corresponds to an attack of each attribute, which needs to be sacrificed separately.
As the other four were put away, Gu Zheng closed his eyes.
For a month, Gu Zheng was here with him, not going anywhere, and every day was very monotonous.
In the first few days, Gu Zheng just strolled around, with few people and few things. After dealing with some trivial matters, Gu Zheng didn't ask about it directly, and gave it all to Yu Ye, who had been in charge before.
And Gu Zheng just found an excuse to close himself up to familiarize himself with some of Zi Yi's attack methods, and continued to sacrifice his five-ring jade.
Lu Jun also disappeared some time ago. Yu Ye said that Pi Yuanlong went to Nanyao City with him to discuss their territory.
Gu Zheng did not ask about the details. Anyway, he knew that the other party must have something to ask of him. Because when Gu Zheng wanted to go out, Yu Ye asked him to wait for a while. Maybe they would go together when the time came. Seeing this, Gu Zheng waited patiently.
On this day, after Gu Zheng went out for a patrol, he returned to his room as usual. Before he could set up the barrier, he heard a noisy sound coming from outside, which seemed very urgent.
Gu Zheng was just about to concentrate on listening, and he heard a hurried footsteps coming towards him.
"Dong Dong Dong"
"Elder Gu, something urgent happened." Yu Ye stopped at Gu Zheng's door, knocked three times, and immediately said anxiously.
"What's going on?" Gu Zheng asked puzzledly when he opened the door.
"Some accidents happened to those who left. We have to go over and take a look." Yu Ye's eyebrows were a little anxious.
"Let's go!" Gu Zheng nodded and walked directly outside.
"Elder Gu!"
When a young man in armor saw him, he greeted him respectfully.
"Elder Gu and I will go first, you can come later!" Yu Ye quickly ordered.
Gu Zheng and Yu Ye came out of the whirlpool and headed to another place.
Not far to the southwest of Nan Yao City, there is a continuous forest. Under one of the low peaks, there is a lake below.
However, compared with the clear river water on the plain, the lake water here seems a bit turbid. Some stones from the peaks occasionally fall into it, and there are no other aquatic creatures living here, just like a dead sea.
However, after a group of people occupied this place, it became lively. Many dirty things in it were cleaned up, and they also prevented nearby wild animals from coming to drink water. Of course, there were some other monsters who liked to come here.
They expanded a lot in the vicinity, which was several times larger than before, and settled here.
This small lakeside is now extremely lively. A large group of people have blocked the outer perimeter, and at the innermost part, there is a bald, sweaty man with a sturdy build. His flesh trembles as he speaks. Everyone can see clearly that underneath the seemingly fat, there is endless explosive power.
Followed by two young men with the same bald heads, they were surrounded by layers of people, but there was no sign of panic on their faces. Instead, they looked around arrogantly.
"I said Master Ling, this is obviously a matter for our Shui Tribe, why do you have to endure it? As I said before, we found these first and brought them back, and no matter how you look at them, they can't be from your tribe. !" One of the tall young men said neither humble nor arrogant.
Next to this young man, there is a woman I see you pity. She is wearing a simple white palace dress, which makes her look like a blooming lotus.
At this moment, she looked around helplessly, hiding slightly behind her. She had no idea why the people around her were fighting for her.
"Haha, why did I hear the exact opposite? Tell me how they robbed!" The bald man snorted coldly and ordered behind him.
"Yes, Master Ling!"
The bald young man on the left behind him responded, took a step forward, looked around with disdain, and then said.
"This time, when I went up the mountain to collect some medicinal materials, I happened to encounter a sudden change in the world, and then I found that she was transforming into a human body, so I stood by to guard her. When the other party completed her transformation, as soon as I arrived next to the woman, they immediately I rushed over and forcibly expelled her. I was powerless and could only watch them bring her back, so I complained to you as soon as I got back."
At this time, he pointed at the two people next to the young man, seeming to say that they were the ones who robbed him.
"Nonsense, we have been guarding you all the time, but on the way back, you wanted to interfere. Why are you rhinoceros trying to rob us, when you know that the other person is actually a river oyster." The young man who was pointed out had a look on his face. His anger showed and he immediately retorted loudly.
On the girl's hair, there were several crystal clear shell-like hairpins, which fixed the black hair, and only a few hair strands were playfully exposed from the jade neck.
"If this were not the case, do you think I would give you a condition? Let me give you one last warning. Zong Hua, please take out the things she has on her. They are our things originally. We don't want them. We will give them to you for free, and we won't Give us the necessary reward! Otherwise, I will be polite." The bald man stared at the young man in front of him.
"You!" Zong Hua was short of breath and his chest was heaving. The other party had always been interested in the jade pendant on that woman's body. He did a little research and found out that it must be a treasure. More importantly, there are many things stored in it, a little cover. None, anyone who is attracted can know what is inside.
But now he has been temporarily sealed by himself, but he is only in the late stage of immortality, and the seal he placed is useless in front of the bald man in front of him, who can see through it at a glance.
"Don't give it to him, this is my thing! I won't give it to anyone." But before Deng Zonghua could say anything, the woman behind him was unhappy. She covered the jade pendant on her chest with one hand and protested loudly. , his face became angry when he looked at the bald head.
The voice was so weak that it couldn't be heard even a little further away. Combined with his relatively weak body, it had no deterrent effect at all.
But at this time, her decision could not influence others at all. She was only at the fourth level of strength, and in front of the bald head, she was not even as good as an ant.
"Then don't blame me for being rude." Upon hearing this, the bald head looked at the girl with a ferocious smile and reached out to grab her.
This gesture frightened the girl so much that she closed her eyes and stood stiffly on the spot.
"If you dare to move, just get over my body." Zong Hua stepped directly in front of the girl and shouted at the bald head.
"Kuao Cao!" The patience in the bald head's heart had long been worn away. Seeing this, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and without stopping at all, he slapped Zong Hua's abdomen with his palm.
"Hmm"
Zong Hua suddenly groaned, his eyes almost popped out, a stream of blood flowed from his mouth, and his body lay limply on the ground.
"Commander Zong!" The people next to him were shocked and quickly came over to check his breath.
"Don't worry, I won't cause trouble for myself. He can't die! But I estimate that I will have to rest for a month before I can get out of bed. Anyone who tries to stop me will suffer the same fate as him." The bald head looked at the chaotic crowd and said He said coldly.
"Stay out of the way!" Seeing that nothing was moving in front of him, the bald head suddenly roared, forming a violent airflow and blowing away all the obstructionists in front of him, but when he came to wait in front of the girl, he turned into A ray of breeze, the power controlled by this hand is perfect.
Seeing that there was nothing in front of him, only a girl stood there alone, the bald man smiled with satisfaction, and then walked towards the girl, threatening as he walked.
"Do you want to hand it over voluntarily, or do you want me to get it myself?"
The girl looked at the bald man approaching fiercely, and became a little overwhelmed. The people around her were already staggering, and the opponent's power was obviously beyond everyone here, which made her step back unconsciously.
But after taking a few steps back, she had already arrived in the lake. There was a dead end below. It could be said that there was no way out, and she couldn't even escape because the opponent was stronger than she expected.
She regretted a little. If she had known it earlier, she would not have followed here. She would have just lived alone in the mountains and old springs. What she was thinking at this time.
Just when the bald head was about to approach, the smile on his face suddenly changed, and his figure suddenly retreated back.
At the same moment she retreated, a black spear instantly stabbed down from the sky. If he was half a step slower, the spear could really stab him from the head.
At the same time, a figure fell from the sky and blocked the bald man directly.
The girl looked at this person who suddenly appeared. His back blocked her in front of him like a mountain, and the other party also gave her a very friendly breath.
Who is he?
