Chapter 499 Stay with Confidence
However, since it has been confirmed that there were indeed foreigners who helped Solomon back then, the credibility of this magic circle has increased a bit. It is possible that there are foreigners on the other side of the magic circle.
If this is true, then this magic circle is not simple. According to the spirit of the weapon, the demons should live in the underworld, which means that this magic circle can directly connect to the underworld.
Hell is far inferior to the prehistoric world, but it is also better than the cultivation environment on Earth. There can be strong people above the realm of Golden Immortal. I don’t know how strong the strong people summoned by Solomon back then are, but it’s not too scary to think about it, otherwise the earth would have been ruled by Solomon long ago.
Gu Zheng felt more relaxed after guessing the identity of the foreigners.
He felt relaxed, but some people were not.
Three bright practitioners lived in the castle, just like water fell into an oil pan and boiled. The Church of Light and the Dark Association were paying attention to these three people. After being refused to see the three people, they thought of other ways.
The Bright Association found two people who were familiar with Jack and had a good relationship with him, and asked them to go and see if they could meet Jack and the other two.
The people of the Dark Association sent a representative from the mortal world to meet Brown, hoping to open a gap from Brown.
Both the Holy See of Light and the Dark Association thought about looking for Gu Zheng directly, but unfortunately, they failed after trying. Gu Zheng ignored them through some channels.
After buying some gifts in Milan, Gu Zheng immediately entered the prehistoric space after returning to the room.
There are many secret books in the treasure of the Kongkong Gate obtained last time, and these secret books also have European secret books. Gu Zheng looked through the secret books related to the magic circle. He knew too little about the magic circle. Even if he knew that it was a magic circle that might connect to the outside world, he couldn't open it.
Not to mention, it was a broken magic circle.
After flipping through a few books, Gu Zheng sighed, threw the secret book back, and returned to the room.
There are books, but they look very dry and difficult to understand, not as good as those cultivation secrets in China. After reading several books, Gu Zheng's understanding of magic circles has deepened, and he can even arrange some extremely simple magic circles, but these have no effect on the magic circle under the castle.
According to this progress, he may not be able to repair the magic circle under the castle after reading all these books, and it will take several months or even longer to finish reading these books.
"Before, the Dark Association used it as its headquarters, probably because they wanted to communicate with foreigners and even summon foreigners!"
Gu Zheng suddenly muttered to himself. There was nothing special about the castle. If there was, it was only the magic circle. The Dark Association retreated, but the magic circle was not taken away. It is very likely that the magic circle could not be taken away at all.
Later, they were worried that the people of the Holy See of Light would repair the magic circle, so they asked the Holy See of Light not to occupy the castle. Perhaps the two sides reached an agreement, which led to the current situation of only monitoring and not asking.
This possibility is not impossible, and it is quite possible.
In fact, it is very simple to know whether this is the case. Gu Zheng just needs to go back and try to take the magic circle away. If he can't take it away, it means that his guess is very likely to be true. However, the empire where Solomon is located is not in the UK, and why the magic circle is here is also a mystery.
"No matter, rest first, and talk about it when you go back!"
Gu Zheng shook his head gently, no longer thinking about it, and slept peacefully. It doesn't matter if he doesn't sleep with his current strength, but he is used to sleeping and not used to practicing every day.
After playing outside for seven days, Gu Zheng returned to the UK.
In addition to Italy, Gu Zheng also went to Spain and even watched a football game on the spot. All his itineraries were reported to the Holy See of Light and the Dark Association, which made the people of the two forces confused. Just looking at what Gu Zheng did, he was definitely a tourist from China, doing the same as many tourists.
Such a person occupied the castle they cared about, which really made them confused.
In the past few days, the number of people outside the castle has increased significantly. Three angels from the Holy See of Light came, one of whom was a six-winged archangel. Five masters from the Dark Association also came, and there was also a strong man equivalent to the Return to Void Realm.
The existence of eight cultivators is definitely a terrifying force in China.
Such a terrifying force was sent here, which also shows the importance of the two major forces to the castle.
Gu Zheng, who had just returned, discovered their existence. The eight cultivators scanned Gu Zheng. Unfortunately, with the help of the spirit, they could not find Gu Zheng's identity as a cultivator.
In their eyes, Gu Zheng is still an ordinary person.
With the investigation of eight people, Gu Zheng's identity as an ordinary person was basically confirmed. Gu Zheng is an ordinary person, so they can still put their minds at ease. The three light cultivators who entered inside gave people on both sides a headache.
"Mr. Gu!"
Inside the castle, Jack and the other two saw Gu Zheng for the 'first time'. They were a little nervous, but also confused. They thought the owner here was also a cultivator, or even a strong man with the strength of an angel of light. They didn't expect Gu Zheng to be an ordinary person. No matter how you look at him, he is a completely ordinary person.
So many strong people couldn't find Gu Zheng's identity, let alone Jack and the other two.
"Sit down, are you used to living here?"
"Not bad, thank you Mr. Gu for your hospitality!"
Jack immediately replied that he did not look down upon Gu Zheng because he was an ordinary person. After all, they were living under someone else's roof and did not have the capital at all.
Gu Zheng secretly laughed in his heart. From the butler's description, he knew that Jack and the others were really tolerant these days. They usually practiced in their rooms and did not go out.
"It's nothing, I only did this after being told by my elders!"
Gu Zheng waved his hand gently, but Jack's eyes lit up. It turned out that the strong man was Mr. Gu's 'elder'. No wonder they were asked to come here. If the strong man was Mr. Gu's elder, it would mean saying This is also the territory of the strong man. Living here is almost like being next to the strong man.
In this way, the three of them feel more at ease.
"It's just that I don't know what the three of you have done. The butler told me that people from the Holy See of Light and the Dark Association once came to you. Isn't this the case?"
Gu Zheng asked deliberately. In fact, he knew very well and why people from both sides were looking for them. It can be said that all this was Gu Zheng's own fault.
"We were lucky enough to pick up two corpses!"
Jack explained their situation very honestly. In his opinion, the people from the Light Holy See and the Dark Association must be looking for them just for this matter. He had no idea that the reason why the Light Holy See and the Dark Association were living in the castle was Just found it.
Jack spoke in great detail, some things Gu Zheng knew and some things Gu Zheng didn't know, including the fact that Jack and the others received a huge bounty, he also told them.
Jack had considered hiding this before, but he was quickly rejected.
First of all, Gu Zheng is an ordinary person. They have not been idle these days. They inquired about Gu Zheng and found out that Gu Zheng is a famous chef in China. He helped the original owner of the ancient castle win the competition more than two years ago and competed with the ancient castle. The original owner established a relationship, and then the original owner of the castle gave the castle to this Chinese man.
Their inquiries were very general, and some of them were still guessed by themselves, but all the important information was found out.
For example, Gu Zheng is a Chinese and the new owner of the castle. These can be determined.
After finding out, they were slightly relieved. Gu Zheng was an ordinary person who actually treated them better. Although they were currently in a state of refuge, they were powerful cultivators after all.
Since Gu Zheng is an ordinary person, his resources are of no use to Gu Zheng. But to Gu Zheng's ancestors, they are nothing. They are just resources that are attractive to ordinary cultivators. At this level, angels and masters are not very attractive.
This was also one of the reasons why the dark master caught them before and only asked about the Gibb brothers, but not about their wealth.
In this way, there is really no need to hide it. Since Gu Zheng can stop the Holy See of Light and the Dark Association, it is not difficult to inquire about their situation. It is always not good to be found out that you have concealed something.
"So that's it, you can rest assured and stay here. No one can disturb you as long as you don't want to!"
Gu Zheng smiled and assured them, which made the three of Jack even more happy. They really thought they had found a stable place of refuge.
"My castle is still very interesting, has a long history, and is very unique. It is open to you anywhere, just treat it like your own home!"
Gu Zheng said something again, and the three expressed their thanks again, and then Gu Zheng left.
After Gu Zheng left, the three of them chatted excitedly for a while. They were very satisfied with Gu Zheng's attitude towards them. Gu Zheng was able to stop the Holy See of Light and the Dark Association, which surprised them and made them feel more at ease. Finally, they could I practiced hard in a quiet place.
They just need to sneak out and get back some of the training resources, so that they can continue to practice.
"Brother Jack, I want to visit the castle!"
A person next to Jack suddenly said something. They had been here for several days and only stayed in the room. In fact, they didn’t know what the castle looked like. Now the owner of the castle had accepted him and made them feel like they were at home. It was so convenient that he had long wanted to go out for a walk after holding it in for a few days.
He didn't leave the castle, he just wanted to see what the castle looked like. He didn't even know where he lived, which was really unreasonable.
"Okay, let's take a look together!"
Jack thought for a moment and then agreed. In fact, he also wanted to see this castle. He was also curious about this castle.
The three of them left the room together. Gu Zheng, who had returned to his room, quietly raised the corner of his mouth.
He said this deliberately to guide the three of them out. As long as the three of them went out, he would have a way to let the three of them enter the basement and enter the room with the magic circle.
After that, he will naturally let the outside surveillance forces know this, and then it will be up to them to see their reaction.
After all, the three of them were the experimental subjects brought back by Gu Zheng to test the two major forces.
Soon, Jack and the other three arrived in the basement. The castle was not big. After looking at the outside and the yard, it was time to go upstairs and downstairs. Because upstairs was where Gu Zheng lived, their first choice was naturally underground.
The basement is very large and maintains the characteristics of medieval architecture. The three of them are considered well-informed people and they all nodded secretly as they looked at it.
"etc!"
But after a while, Jack frowned and still stood there. He was looking at the mural in the basement.
The walls of the basement are carved with exquisite murals, and the murals are all fairy tales. The staff who maintain the place do not know that the things on the murals are actually true. These murals were left by people from the previous Dark Association. .
Jack didn't pay attention at first, but after seeing something he had heard before, he frowned. Soon, he saw many stories he had heard, and he knew very well that these stories were all It's really happening.
This is not the key, the most critical thing is the way these murals are recorded.
The recording method also represents the perspective of the mural author.
For example, when people in China talk about World War II and the Anti-Japanese War, they affirm that we are all resisting the invaders, but it is different in Japan. They have never recognized aggression, only recognizing that it was a war.
This is the difference in perspective. Jack was horrified to discover that these murals were all scenes of the victory of the dark forces. This is equivalent to saying that the author, or owner, of the murals must be related to the Dark Association, or at worst, he is on the side of the Dark Association. The people on one side might even be members of the Dark Association.
"Is it possible that that gentleman is from the Dark Association?"
An idea came to Jack's mind, but he quickly rejected it. If the 'adult' who saved them before was from the Dark Association, there would be no need to appear like that, and there was no need to save them. After all, the person who captured them was People of the Dark Association.
Jack also thought of a very important point. It is true that Gu Zheng is the owner of this castle, but he is the new owner. The previous castle does not belong to him, which means that these murals have little to do with Gu Zheng.
After thinking about this, Jack was a little relieved. After all, he was a bounty hunter who specialized in killing dark creatures. If he really lived in the territory of the Dark Association, even if he knew it was safe, he would not feel at ease.
"Brother Jack, what are you doing!"
The companion next to him asked him with some doubts, and Jack immediately shook his head. He did not tell his guess to his friends, not wanting them to worry too.
The three of them walked around the basement for a while and soon found the room with the magic array. All three of them saw the magic array, but they were a little surprised and did not notice anything special or unexpected about the magic array.
They also saw the writing on the wall, but they just shook their heads and smiled and ignored the story.
They don't know whether the story is true or false, but whether it is true or not has nothing to do with them. If it is true, it happened thousands of years ago. If it is false, let alone mention it, it is just a story.
He has been paying attention to their ancient dispute, and the corner of his mouth rose again. There are spies left by the Holy See of Light and the dark forces in the castle. These spies are just ordinary people, and practitioners will not let them in.
These ordinary people are reporting everything they have observed, and the two major forces should have received the news by now.
