Chapter 1841

"kitten!"

Seeing this, Gu Zheng shouted subconsciously, wanting to stop the other party, but after shouting, he remembered that the other party was still in his arms, still healing, and had not come out at all.

An angry look flashed in his eyes, but at this time, it was too late to block the other party. He could only cast a divine thought on it, and then watched the other party teleport away.

The mixed ore in his hand suddenly turned into a mass of shatters, and even the black crystals inside were turned into powder.

The other party was transformed into a civet cat for a prince right under his nose, but he hadn't noticed it yet.

"I tell you...even the captain of the patrol cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately. We can only...can only go back and be judged."

The third brother looked at Gu Zheng's livid face and said with a trembling voice.

Theoretically, they deserved to die, but in their opinion, as long as they could go back, they would definitely be saved. It would be very troublesome for Gu Zheng to kill them, especially the previous threats, which in their opinion was a kind of safety.

That's why the boss took a risk with them, because if they go back for trial, there is a high chance that they will die, but after completing the task by himself, there is a high chance that he will be saved.

The other party will definitely save them, which is also their confidence.

"Okay, okay, trial, I will judge you here." The anger on Gu Zheng's face faded, and then he said calmly.

"You you..."

The third brother was about to say something, but as Gu Zheng raised his hand, his body also flew up, as if being strangled by the neck, and the next words were suppressed.

"Brother, the other party is not who you said. Something is wrong with us." The second brother said to his eldest brother tremblingly. It seemed that the other party wanted to get to know them here.

"No, the other party is just venting. At most, we will suffer a little bit. We won't die, don't worry!" The elder brother's eyes were also frightened, and the jade butterfly in his hand was also broken. He had done everything, so he could only comfort himself like this. .

"No"

As the third brother forcefully squeezed out a sound from his mouth, it suddenly stopped. His whole body collapsed in the air, and he could no longer die.

"I am willing to lead the way, sir, to find the lair of the horse thieves!" The eldest brother knelt down and immediately begged for mercy.

The development of things seemed to be beyond his expectation, so they immediately used their backup plan.

"Please spare my life, and I am willing to work hard for you!" The second brother followed suit and knelt down, looking down at the ground, not daring to look up, his eyes filled with fear.

"Be a cow or a horse?"

"Yes, yes, I'm willing to be a cow or a horse!" Upon hearing this, the eldest brother nodded quickly and did not dare to look at Gu Zheng.

"But you didn't grasp the opportunity given to you, and you still forced me to join you. Do you think I'm still that stupid? You'll have to work for me in the next life!"

As the cold voice fell, the two of them felt a huge pressure coming from the beginning to the end, and huge pressure coming from all directions.

The two of them still wanted to beg for mercy, but before they could make a sound, they completely disappeared from the air the next moment.

After calming down for a while, Gu Zheng walked out.

After hunting geese all day long, he was finally pecked by a goose this time, which made him feel a little bad.

The trace of spiritual thoughts left above may be too far away, or it may be due to the special circumstances here and cannot be contacted at all.

When they came outside, Youyou was still busy at this time. Mr. Chen kept giving instructions to others, and there was a half-person-high cloth bag in front of them, and they didn't know what was put there.

"Boss Jiu, the three brothers are gone. It seems you are right. The other party has been prepared for a long time. Maybe they heard some rumors, and we are stuck in the middle and are unlucky." A gangster who looked a little smart came to the wine table. The boss said next to him.

If the other party dared to kill one, they would kill a bunch of them. They were very lucky that none of them escaped.

"Don't worry, at least there is no danger of life. Speaking of labor, it is not oppression. Don't let the other party take the opportunity. Order it." The wine boss felt more and more that his initial decision was correct. He said to him, then left the team and headed towards Gu Zheng walked over there.

In fact, there was no need for him to give orders. After seeing that the three brothers did not come out from inside, everyone made a decision in their hearts, no matter what, they could not attract the attention of this murderous god.

Among them, the two gangsters who first chased Youyou hid in the crowd behind them, for fear of settling the score later.

At this time, Gu Zheng had already arrived at Mr. Chen's side. Before he could speak, Mr. Chen pointed at the cloth bag under him and said.

"You came just in time. I have taken out some soul stones from the warehouse. Although they have not been refined further and the effect is less, they are still of some use. Don't be afraid of wasting them."

"Thanks."

Through the unsealed bag mouth, you can see that there is indeed a lot inside. Gu Zheng really came here for this, so he no longer shirks it and grabs it directly in his hand.

"Captain!"

At this time, Boss Jiu came over with a flattering attitude. Seeing that Gu Zheng wanted to leave, he immediately shouted.

"What's the matter?" Gu Zheng frowned and said impatiently.

"Over here, do you think we should restrain them all? If there are still thieves and the other party's accomplices, causing some damage, that would be bad." The wine boss thought in his mind and said quickly.

When Gu Zheng heard this, he looked over there. The prisoner over there was very conscious and stood there obediently, but he was right.

I am going out now. If the other party riots or escapes, Chen Lao will not be able to suppress them, so he nodded.

"Take it. Come with me and give these things to my team members later."

"Don't worry. Your Excellency is being considerate of your subordinates. Your Excellency has just returned from the mission." The wine boss immediately took the bag and said flatteringly.

"Stop talking nonsense. I won't ask you. Don't speak."

Gu Zheng left this sentence and walked towards the bandits. It took some time to seal everyone's cultivation by 90%. When Tietou and the others came back, they couldn't make any waves.

After returning, Gu Zheng pointed to the front, and the wine boss followed behind happily.

The other party's behavior made everyone feel at ease.

Walking out in the black wood forest, Gu Zheng thought of the three brothers and the forces behind him. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the side. The wine boss was still holding the soul stones for Gu Zheng with a smile on his face, as if it was an extremely honorable task. After thinking for a while, he asked.

"Wine Boss"

"Sir, don't bother me. What wine boss? That's just a title. My name is Jiugui, which means "rule". "

As soon as Gu Zheng opened his mouth, Jiu Boss immediately spoke up. He didn't want to die outside.

"Jiugui, interesting. Do you know Ma Nan? He is the man behind the three brothers." Gu Zheng chuckled and said.

"I know. The other party is the biggest bandit here. It is said that there are thousands of them. Not to mention that he is a master of Daluo, and even has several people under him, who are also masters of Daluo. They are very powerful." Jiugui said without hiding anything.

"But compared with the other party, his cultivation must not be very high. At most, he is in the middle stage of Daluo. If he is higher, the government will not let him leave."

"Why is the other party so big, but he still has to stop the bandits outside, and you are so dangerous." Gu Zheng was puzzled by this. There are not many people here. Even if people and monsters are added together, there are not many people. At most, there are millions of people.

And most of them are civilians. Because of some accidents, the whole village was destroyed. Then they came here. Anyway, except for their cultivation, they have nothing. They can't practice the skills, and even the absorption of soul stones can't increase their cultivation.

This is what Youyou told him on the way.

Others can use soul stones to increase their cultivation. Although the skills can't be practiced here, it is the only way.

"Of course it is profitable. These soul stones are sometimes not fixed. There are many soul stone mines exposed outside. At the same time, they are accompanied by soul water. Usually, soul water can be collected and used for normal healing. The more the better. These will suddenly appear inexplicably and disappear inexplicably."

"Of course, it's not just these basic things. Sometimes you are lucky and you will encounter different natural soul crystals. The power inside is purer than synthetic ones. It can be used to arrange formations or increase cultivation. It is said that it is more powerful to use some secret techniques."

"These things can't flow into the hands of demon souls outside. In the middle, the other party has more resources. In fact, the place where our official was built is the edge of a fixed soul stone mine. It is huge and can only be entered through a special passage. It is also a stable source for everyone. "

"And we outside are not only looking for those things, but more wandering around, killing those unformed demon souls while looking for newly arrived humans and demons who are alone. In fact, our existence is also tacitly accepted, after all, some people can't stay. "

Jiu Gui said it immediately, but he was a little confused in his heart. These things are known to everyone. Could it be that the other party just woke up from seclusion.

He heard that many seniors who had just come here wanted to try to leave here, and tried too many ways, but they didn't succeed. Later, there was the current official family.

The more I think about it, the more I feel right. At the same time, I also feel that my luck is really bad. The other party's companions must have encountered some problems and were rescued by the other party, and then came here to take the soul stone to solve the urgent problem.

"Are you bandits all good things?" Gu Zheng glanced at him sideways, and then said slowly.

From the beginning to the end, the other party was praising the benefits of the bandits, but he didn't believe it.

"Of course, they are all bandits, so they will naturally rob some, whether it is the enemy or their own people. After all, sometimes they are not so lucky. As long as they don't kill people, they will be fine if they run into patrol soldiers." Jiugui said cautiously.

"I understand, then Ma Nan is also recognized by the palace?" Gu Zheng heard the other party say so, and he also understood what some bandits meant.

On the one hand, in order to develop things outside, pull those scattered people in, and pick up resources outside, these things will eventually return to their territory.

Second, these people also blocked some people, trapped them here, and prevented the other party from running around. It seems that there is really a shortage of people here.

However, these bandits can only block a part of them. At least there are many people who are unwilling to be lonely. They sneak out and run to the so-called Soul Alliance over there, or wander outside. After all, there is no way to make a fortune inside except for military industry. If you are really lucky outside, you can secretly bring it back, whether you use it yourself or exchange it for other things, it is better than staying here.

"Of course it's impossible. The palace doesn't recognize it. If you take us back, there will be a reward. As for us, we will have to do hard labor in there for free. If nothing unexpected happens, it will take at least five thousand years to get out." Jiugui said with a bitter face.

"That's easy." Gu Zheng smiled slightly and made a decision in his heart.

It didn't matter whether the thing was useful to him or not. What mattered was that the other party was under his nose. His things were taken away by the other party. He couldn't let out his anger. He took back his things.

"Sir, don't be impulsive. The other party is very strong and said to be very cruel." Jiugui saw Gu Zheng's smile, but he didn't feel any warmth. Instead, he felt that the surroundings were getting colder. He couldn't help but say.

"I know my limits. Don't say too much!"

Gu Zheng quickened his pace. After walking out of the black forest, he found that his direction was a little off. He immediately adjusted the direction and walked towards Tietou.

Before Gu Zheng walked to that area, Tietou and the others had already rushed out.

Jiugui looked at the people in front of him. He suddenly appeared and understood the other party's identity. Judging from the other party's appearance, he was probably a veteran in the army.

He guessed wrong about this. It was just because he had fought too much in the black tower, and he was a little fierce, which was much different from a veteran.

"Gu Zheng, you are finally back. Did the other party embarrass you?" Tietou didn't know whether the identity he had compiled for Gu Zheng was still useful, but seeing Jiugui next to him, he thought it looked pretty good.

"The other party was very enthusiastic and was very excited about my arrival. I just helped him a little, and he took the initiative to send so much. Come and take it quickly. I will protect you." Gu Zheng didn't say much, pointing to Jiugui behind him.

"Take it, thank you for your hard work!" Tietou nodded, and then said to Jiugui.

He thought the other party was from there and helped to bring it over.

"No, no, I should do it." Jiugui was also very embarrassed, but he couldn't explain it, but he still handed over the things in his hand.

"It turned out to be a soul ore that had been refined once. You are really nice."

When he opened it, Tietou exclaimed immediately.

They originally just wanted some raw ore and refined some by themselves. With these, they saved a lot of time.

"Yes, it seems that Gu Zheng has a lot of face. I don't know that the other party is willing to give so much, which is more than enough." Yingxi was also stunned when she saw the soul stones inside.

Although these are not many, let alone let them all recover, there will be even more than double.

"It's all polite. The other party gave it to us. Everyone divide it equally. Use it as you see fit. If you can't use it all, keep it for yourself." Gu Zheng waved his hand and distributed it without any politeness.

Anyway, it was useless to him. He looked at the wine rules next to him and his eyebrows jumped. He even thought that it would be good if he had met Gu Zheng before. Such a generous person is much more generous than raising a team by himself.

Gu Zheng also learned some cover halfway to make himself look no different from here.

"Haha, I got lucky this time."

"Gu Zheng, you are really generous. If you have anything, call me. I will give you my life."

Everyone said excitedly, and at the same time expressed their gratitude to Gu Zheng, looking like they were working hard.

The soul stones inside were distributed to everyone by Tietou and Yingxi in an orderly manner, and soon they were all gone. Everyone got at least 200 soul stones, and most of them were not much different. Soon they all sat on the ground and began to absorb them.

Gu Zheng saw that everyone had only a few soul stones in their hands, and there was even one soul stone that only held one soul stone, and the soul stone he chose was the darkest one. After hearing that they all belonged to him, he was reluctant to use them.

"Is it very precious?" Gu Zheng asked Jiugui next to him.

"For an individual, it is simply a large amount of wealth. If they have nothing to do, they don't eat or drink. If they want to save so much, it will take nearly a hundred years." Jiugui said distressedly, because these should have been theirs, what a pity.

"In this case, it is too much, but it doesn't matter."

After only half a day, everyone woke up one after another, and it seemed that everyone had recovered a lot of spirits compared to before.

"Gu Zheng, let's go next. These make us feel a lot more at ease." After everyone woke up, Tietou stepped forward and said.

It seems that all of them have just recovered a little vitality and have the power to protect themselves. With Gu Zheng's presence, they can shield most risks. The more they can save, the better.

"Let's go over there, meet them, and go together." Gu Zheng pointed to the direction they came from.

"That's even better. With the other party's cover, ordinary bandits don't dare to come at all." Yingxi also said excitedly.

"Yes, if you had said it earlier, I would have saved even those two pills. It's a pity." Tietou also shook his head and said regretfully.

Not to mention him, even the others looked at Gu Zheng with more or less resentment. If they had known earlier, why waste it.

The other party's skin is an invisible protection, sometimes even stronger than Gu Zheng.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, there are still waiting for us." Gu Zheng said unhappily.

Led by Gu Zheng, the group hurried over.

When they arrived there, Chen Lao had already packed everything up, and the injured personnel were almost healed and could set off at any time.

Youyou, who had been unconscious before, has woken up. She is standing next to Old Chen, looking at Gu Zheng nervously. She wants to say something but doesn't dare to step forward. It's obvious that her grandfather has told her something.

Gu Zheng did not say anything about his surroundings. These people were all from the same village. Later, a natural disaster fell from the sky and destroyed the entire village. However, only a few dozen of them came here, and all the others disappeared.

They depended on each other for survival, so they were sent here to do some simple mining, and they lived in peace.

Because even if they came to this place, their essence had not changed. After experiencing so much, they just wanted to live well.

"Jiugui, you take your people to follow behind, I will unlock some seals with you, so that you can travel quickly."

Gu Zheng gave the order directly, and then walked directly to Chen Lao.

"Let's go!"

Chen Lao nodded, then called the people behind him, and then several young guards came out from behind, walked in front, and led the way for everyone.

The not-so-large team began to move slowly along the established route.
