Chapter 536: Strange Man

The two pretended to be nothing and paid for the jade token.

The moment they bought it, they both felt relieved.

When Lan Yao was about to put the jade token into his bag, a big hand suddenly stretched out from the side and grabbed his wrist.

"Brother, wait a minute!"

Lan Yao was startled and looked at Gu Sheng in a hurry.

Gu Sheng turned sideways and stepped on Lan Yao's foot.

Lan Yao felt pain and his hand loosened, and the jade token fell into Gu Sheng's hand.

Gu Sheng took the jade token steadily, took a step back, and directly put the jade token into the storage ring.

Seeing the jade token disappear out of thin air, the person holding Lan Yao was a little anxious and hurried to Gu Sheng's side.

"Brother, I wonder if you can show me the jade token?"

Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"We have already bought that jade plaque. If you are interested, you can look at other ones here."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the shopkeeper said enthusiastically: "Sir, I have more than one jade plaque here. You can pick any and look at it. I promise to give you the lowest price."

However, the man didn't even look at it, but just looked at Gu Sheng.

"Brother, I have no ill intentions. I just want to see that jade plaque. Please let me see it, just one look."

Hearing the urgency in his words, Gu Sheng knew that this person must have some intentions.

He took a step back again and rejected his request.

"I'm really sorry, it's not convenient, Lan Yao, let's go."

After speaking, Gu Sheng turned and left.

Seeing him leave, the man was obviously a little anxious and stepped forward to stop him.

Gu Sheng had already seen his movements, and his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the crowd with everyone.

After going around in circles, they stopped in front of an inn.

"Brother Sheng, are we going to stay here? Isn't this place a bit remote?"

After Shi Lou finished speaking, Gu Sheng nodded.

"This place is indeed a bit remote, but it is just right for us."

"Why? Aren't we going to get information? Isn't it better to get information with more people?"

"Getting information with more people is better, but the man just now is obviously unusual. If we live in a crowded place, he will inevitably pester us."

Hearing this, Lan Yao hurriedly asked: "Gu Sheng, can you feel that man is unusual?"

"Yes, he was obviously suppressing his strength when facing us. He may not have any malice, or he may be brewing greater malice. We have to be on guard."

Understanding what he meant, everyone followed him into the inn.

After asking for a few upper rooms, they finally had a good night's rest.

It was rare to sleep in bed, so everyone slept late.

There was nothing urgent here, so Gu Sheng simply let them go.

This inn is located in a remote area, and there are not many people.

At dinner time, Gu Sheng went downstairs, and there were only a few tables downstairs.

After asking the waiter to prepare a table of food and wine, Gu Sheng sat alone at the table.

At this time, two idle waiters gathered together and whispered something.

Gu Sheng didn't care at first, but when he accidentally heard the words "black evil spirits", he immediately perked up.

"It is said that they joined hands with the evil sect, and because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, they were wiped out. You don't know that those people died miserably."

"How could I not know? This matter has been a hot topic. I'm afraid that everyone in Jianghong knows about it. The shopkeeper went to that place a while ago, and I went with him. The Black Evil Sect was surrounded by people from the martial arts world. There were people from all sects in it. There were no survivors there. Everyone could only attack their corpses, and some even dissected their corpses just to find evidence of their collusion with the evil sect."

"Those famous sects have also taken action, right? With such a big thing happening, the martial arts world is in turmoil. They should not be able to sit still, right?"

"Of course, it is said that the Baiyun Sect, the largest sect in the martial arts world..."

Just as the waiter said this, a group of people suddenly walked into the inn.

When a guest came, the two waiters stopped talking and greeted him enthusiastically.

The topic came to an abrupt end, and Gu Sheng was quite disappointed.

He looked at the visitor with some dissatisfaction, but as soon as they looked at each other, the man's eyes lit up and he immediately walked towards him.

"Brother, I didn't expect that we would meet again."

Looking at the person coming, Gu Sheng pinched his brows with a headache.

Because this person was none other than the one who stopped them for the jade token that day.

He lived in such a remote place just to avoid him, but he didn't expect to meet him.

"Yeah, it's quite a coincidence."

"Brother, is the jade token still in your hand?"

Hearing him mention this again, Gu Sheng frowned unconsciously.

"What do you want to do?"

"Don't worry, I really have no ill intentions, I just want to take a look."

"Didn't you see it that day? What else is there to see?"

"I was in a hurry that day and didn't look carefully. Let me take another look, just take a look, okay?"

"No."

After a cold refusal, Gu Sheng went back to his room directly.

As soon as he entered the door, Lan Yao pushed the door and walked in.

"Didn't you say you were going to eat? Why are you back again?"

"The person who wants to snatch the jade token from us is here."

Hearing this, Lan Yao was shocked.

"He actually found this place? Gu Sheng, what do you think his purpose is?"

"I don't know either."

Seeing that Gu Sheng was out of ideas, Lan Yao was in a panic.

"That jade token is the personal jade token of the previous leader of the Baiyun Sect. Very few people know it. It was lost because of a melee, but he recognized it at a glance. This shows that this person is by no means simple."

Gu Sheng agreed with his words, but he couldn't figure out the identity of this person.

"Gu Sheng, you said he won't kill us and take away the jade token, right? After all, the jade token symbolizes a lot. Even if a beggar goes to the Baiyun Sect with the jade token, he might be able to ask for a seal. He is a person who can tell you at a glance It’s not simple. He seems to have some status. If the jade medal is taken away by him, he may become famous. With such a big temptation, will he be murderous? "

After thinking about it again and again, Gu Sheng found this answer very confusing.

After two contacts, he didn't feel the murderous aura from the man, and even the aura was easily suppressed. But it was impossible to say that he didn't have bad intentions, because he obviously came here for the jade token. He was able to find this person this time. It was obviously intentional.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Sheng sighed.

"If his ghost lingers, we will use every move to attack him. If we join forces, he may not be our opponent."

Blue Demon had no choice but to nod.

After a while, the waiter came over.

"Sir, your food and wine are all ready. When will it be served?"

"Now."

After being prepared to confront him, both Gu Sheng and Gu Sheng felt a lot calmer. If the person found him here, he would definitely settle here. It was not a matter of hiding, so it was better to face him directly.

A group of people went downstairs and saw the man sitting at the table.

Gu Sheng ignored him and sat down directly at his table.

While they were eating, the man's eyes frequently fell on their faces. Gu Sheng sensed it, but ignored it at all.

The meal was quite peaceful, but as soon as Gu Sheng put down his chopsticks, the man came over.

Looking at him, Gu Sheng's expression was not pretty.

"Why do you have to see the jade plaque?"

"Brother, this jade plaque is very important to me."

"Is it important to you? Which sect are you from?"

"No one has any sect."

Hearing these words, Gu Sheng's face suddenly turned cold.

It would be understandable if this person said that he was from the Baiyun Sect. After all, the jade medal belonged to a certain elder of the previous generation of the Baiyun Sect. But if he said that he had no family or sect, then it was more likely that the Blue Demon would guess.

"You don't have to pester me anymore. I won't take out this jade token again. If you want to play dirty tricks, we will be with you at any time."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the man seemed to want to say something more, but Gu Sheng didn't give him the chance at all and turned around and left with everyone.

They went to the market to get information, and the man followed them.

Gu Sheng just pretended that he couldn't see him and focused on finding out the information he wanted.

Sure enough, the news about the Heisha Sect was widely circulated, and many people in the world were discussing it.

In a teahouse, two tables of people were discussing this matter animatedly.

Gu Sheng and others stopped and took a seat closest to them.

On the surface, everyone seemed to be drinking tea, but in fact they were all listening.

These people were talking about a lot of things, but they couldn't get to the point. Lan Yao was a little impatient, so Gu Sheng raised his hand to suppress him.

Not long after, someone at the table said, "Don't you know? It is said that the eldest son of the Baiyun Sect also came to learn about this matter."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

The eldest son of Baiyun Sect? White wind?

"I have heard about this. My brother who climbed a high tree told me, but he said it while drunk. I didn't dare to take it seriously. Who did you listen to?"

"I heard what my father said. My father went to do business, and the people he interacted with were all well-known people in the world. How can the news they tell you be false?"

"If this is true, once the eldest son of the Baiyun Sect comes out, he will represent the entire Baiyun Sect, and this world will definitely not be able to cause trouble."

"That's not necessarily true. Although the Baiyun Sect is the best sect in the world, it has not been seen for many years. No one knows how strong they are now. If they don't show enough strength, they probably won't be able to deal with the people behind the Black Evil Sect. Evil man, think about it, that evil man can even control the Black Demon Sect, and his methods must be unusual."

As soon as he said this, many people nodded in agreement, even the blue demon nodded.

He killed the people of the Heisha Sect with his own hands. They were indeed controlled by the evil sect. Those who could control them were certainly not weak.

As for the Baiyun Sect, their reputation is indeed very good, but no one has seen their specific strength. The last war was more than ten years ago, and now more than ten years have passed, and no one knows whether they have improved.

After listening to what the people at the two tables said, Gu Sheng and others got up and left.

As soon as he turned his head, the people who had followed him from the inn came to him.

Seeing his lingering look, Gu Sheng simply chose to ignore him.

The man no longer avoided the situation and followed Gu Sheng directly. He would go wherever he went, always keeping a distance but never leaving.

As night approached, Shilou pointed to a two-story building with some excitement.

"Brother Sheng, that should be a winery. Should we go there and have a look?"

Looking up, Gu Sheng frowned slightly.

There were two women leaning on the railing. They didn't look like a normal restaurant.

Just as he was about to refuse, the blue demon grabbed him.

"Gu Sheng, let's go over and take a look. I've never been to a place like this."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Gu Sheng to respond, and pulled him forward.

Shi Lou and others were even more active, and they all gathered around Gu Sheng, for fear that he would not go.

Just like that, Gu Sheng was forcibly taken away by them.

After entering the door, the two women walked forward.

"Do you gentlemen want to drink?"

"Yes, do you have any good wine here?"

After the blue demon asked, the woman covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled coquettishly.

"Don't worry, sir, we have all kinds of good wine here. We have whatever is available outside, and we also have what is not available outside."

After saying that, she even gave the blue demon a wink.

Blue Demon scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"We're just here to drink."

"The slave family knows that you can just drink it with confidence. Just follow me."

Feeling that this place was unusual, a few people were afraid of causing trouble and did not go to the private room. Instead, they sat in the lobby downstairs.

After a few bottles of wine were served on the table, Shi Lou's eyes lit up.

"Brother Sheng, the wine here is really unusual. As soon as you open the lid, the aroma of wine overflows. We need to drink more today."

Gu Sheng glanced at him, and he shrank his head, then turned his head to taste a drink by himself.

Gu Sheng also poured a glass and took a sip. The wine was fine, clean and tasted really good.

Seeing that Gu Sheng didn't speak after drinking, the group became bolder.

After finishing a jar of wine, the blue demon drank another jar.

Gu Sheng didn't say anything, but he didn't drink anymore.

Perhaps seeing that he didn't speak, the blue demon became bolder and called for two more bottles of wine.

Seeing their drunken looks, Gu Sheng couldn't help but frown.

Just when he was about to speak, two women came over, put one hand around the back of Gu Sheng's neck, and leaned against him tenderly.

"Sir, how boring it is for a group of men to drink. Do you want us to accompany you?"

Gu Sheng pushed her away and said coldly, "No need."

The two women didn't pay attention and leaned towards him with a smile.

Gu Sheng refused again and again, but the woman seemed like she couldn't see it and was still talking to herself.

Gu Sheng was a little angry, his tone was much stronger, and his words did not sound pleasant.

The two women curled their lips before retreating.

Feeling a little angry in his heart, Gu Sheng wanted to drink a glass of wine to calm his mood.

Just as he raised his wine glass, the man who had been following them suddenly rushed over and knocked the wine glass in Gu Sheng's hand.

The wine glass slipped and spilled all over Gu Sheng.

Looking at him, Gu Sheng's face turned dark.

At this time, the man suddenly said: "Sir, it's getting late, we should go back."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng felt a little strange.

He called him Young Master for no reason, and even winked at him behind other people's backs. Why was that?

Gu Sheng didn't speak, and the man urged a few more words: "Sir, I'm already urging you. If you don't reply, I won't be able to explain. Let's go back."

After thinking about it, Gu Sheng nodded.

"Okay, let's go back."

Gu Sheng pulled the confused Ergou and others and left the winery together. (End of chapter)
