Chapter 681: Caravan Selfishness
Seeing that the men, women, and children on the Gu family's side were all in good order, Du Jinlong, the leader of the business group, was almost angry.
"Miss Gu, our business group lost five people, and three of them were unconscious, that's how you led the way, and you didn't even remind us that there were such powerful poisonous insects in the middle of the night?"
There was not a single corpse of the bloodworm on the Gu family's side, obviously they had already prepared, if they didn't know in advance, how could they have prepared so properly? After thinking about it, he understood that Gu Lanyi deliberately didn't tell them.
Du Jinlong pointed at Gu Lanyi and said angrily: "You are deliberately harming us!"
Gu Feiyan was immediately upset, and walked over to Du Jinlong and said, "President Du, Sister Lanyi has already said that your upper realm is in danger, how can you say that she didn't remind you?
In the past, she didn't like Gu Lanyi, but she was just jealous, but now that she knows Gu Lanyi's ability and identity, jealousy has long turned into worship and flattery, where can outsiders say half a bad word about Gu Lanyi?
Du Jinlong couldn't say anything when he was blocked by Gu Feiyan, and his voice trembled: "You, you ......"
"What's wrong with us? Do you want my second sister to remind you every day to eat and drink water, and remember to rest when you're tired? Are you adults or babies, are you stupid? I really don't know what to do. Gu Feiyan pouted.
Trembling by her poisonous tongue, Du Jinlong and several people from the merchant group beside him were speechless and ignored, but they were unwilling to die so many people. They originally wanted to come up and make a fortune, and they were prosperous, and it was nothing to cooperate with Gu Lanyi.
After two years of strength, they can also return to the Nether Realm like Gu Lanyi, be admired by others, and control everything. After all, they didn't want to stay in the upper realm for a lifetime, as long as they improved their cultivation and increased their longevity, it was enough.
Hard work is for enjoyment, otherwise who would want to?
But I never expected that Du Jinlong and his confidants had lost one-third of the people on the first day he came up with his confidants, he was a businessman, how could he endure this kind of loss!
"But......" Du Jinlong's face turned pale, but he could only endure it desperately.
Seeing Gu Lanyi's appearance as if he was smiling, he finally eased his tone and lowered his posture: "Miss Gu, I'm sorry, we were negligent, we didn't expect these poisonous insects to be so powerful." Those who are dead are enough, but there are still three people unconscious, can you please give some medicine, or go and save them?"
It's still growing along the way, in case a few people die every day, and when they get to the royal city, all his people are dead, what else can they do to cooperate with Gu Lanyi?
He had to bow his head.
Only then did Gu Lanyi speak: "President Du should have an antidote pill on his body, right? People who have been bitten by bloodshot mosquitoes only need to take more than six grades of detoxification pills, and they will wake up in half an hour." ”
When Du Jinlong heard this, his face darkened, he had more than six grades of detoxification pills, but that was what he left to defend himself, how could he give it to others casually?
"We are not alchemists, nor do we specialize in the pill business, how can there be more than six detoxification pills. He looked embarrassed, endured his grievances and begged Gu Hongkai and Gu Chaoyue: "The two Gu family masters, help to intercede or not, the people below me are going to die." ”
In the end, it was Gu Chaoyue who was kind and benevolent, and persuaded him: "Lanyi, you look at it, do you want to help them?"
Gu Lanyi didn't want the people of the merchant group to die, although this Du Jinlong was too snobbish, but some of the members of the merchant group were still good. Survival of the fittest is fine, she doesn't have to be in a hurry.
She finally took a bottle of detoxification pill and handed it to Du Jinlong: "There are ten six-grade detoxification pills in here, which is enough for you." ”
Du Jinlong's eyes lit up, and after thanking him, he hurriedly took the pill and ran away.
By the time everyone was all cleaned up, it was almost dawn when the front was restored to its previous appearance. The Gu family has already gone to rest again, and there are all bloody mosquitoes nearby, and there will be no other poisonous insects and demonic beasts of the same grade, as long as they dodge the first wave, they will be fine later.
But the others didn't know about the situation, and the people of the five families were all alert that there would be danger and didn't dare to sleep, including the Hunters' Guild, because the prevention was proper and the vigilance was enough, only one of them had been poisoned, and it was okay to take the antidote pill.
Sitting around the fire, Yuan Liangzhe looked at the hunters beside him and lowered his voice: "In the future, we will learn from the people of the Gu family and pay attention to their actions, especially Miss Gu! We will sleep when she sleeps, and we can also eat when she eats, pay attention to all movements worth observing." ”
A group of hunters also whispered, "Yes, President." ”
They are all people who live with their heads, and every hunter who has grown up to eight or nine grades, if he is a little negligent, he will not be able to live now. Moreover, their current identity is Gu Lanyi's future escort team, if they are not even as good as their masters, they might as well go back to the Nether to hunt.
The lessons that were exchanged for blood thousands of times made this group of hunters more vigilant than people from other families, and they paid more attention to Gu Lanyi's words.
Soon, the night passed, and it was dawn again.
The original number of people in the team was close to two hundred, but there were twelve fewer on the first day, and everyone didn't know how many people would be left after arriving at the royal city.
Today's departure, everyone is a lot quieter, those who talked about yesterday have shut up, and then look at the surrounding green mountains and green waters, and they don't feel that the future is a scenery, and everywhere is the feeling of a fairy land.
Everyone was vigilant, and they were extra cautious when passing through the woods or rivers, and some people secretly came to ask Gu Lanyi if there was any danger nearby. Gu Lanyi didn't hide it, and told them what he knew, and the news gradually spread, and everyone was a little relieved.
The day passed safely, and everyone was still sleeping in the wilderness, picking wild fruits and hunting, no one complained about the hardships for days, and no one said that it was wrong to take care of the clothes and lead the way. Even when passing through a small town halfway, Gu Lanyi didn't say anything about stopping to rest here, and passed by, and these people didn't say much.
But there are always doubts and dissatisfactions, some people hold them in their hearts and digest them on their own, and some people begin to take root and sprout again, gradually expanding.
The second night nothing happened, and it was spent peacefully, and the third day remained the same, and on the fourth day it was still walking in the wilderness, and some people did not want to. The speed is so slow, there are so many companions, what year and month do you want to go to Wangcheng?
This is the upper realm, doesn't it say that it is vast, do you really want them to walk slowly to the royal city? a month, half a year, or ten or eight years?
Seeing that the people of the Xia family next to him began to live and cook, the people of the trade group glanced at each other, Du Jinlong gave a few hints to his henchmen, and then two people ran to the Xia family's team.
After saying something, the two men came back with ugly faces.
"President, they said that they just follow the Gu family and listen to Miss Gu's words, and they don't listen to us at all, and let us not mess around. The two of them looked angry and very unhappy.
Du Jinlong snorted, although he guessed that the other families were unwilling to cooperate with him, but he didn't expect that the Xia family, which had the most dead people, would also ignore them, it was simply unreasonable.
"These people in the family have always been high up and look down on our chamber of commerce. I don't know what they are doing by listening to that woman like this, is it cool to please her?
A few henchmen beside him said, "President, what now?"
Du Jinlong pondered, thinking about what should be best for them.
Following Gu Lanyi's upper realm this time is the biggest bet he has made in his life. He's a businessman and knows how rewarding Bo is from making the right choice. But how much profit there may be, how much danger there is, he gambled three times, and he won the bet, and gradually became the president of the Yuncang Chamber of Commerce from a small trader.
Du Jinlong wasn't sure if his choice was correct this time, but when he thought of the rumors in the upper realm, which was almost a holy place in everyone's hearts in the lower realm, he was desperate to give it a try.
If he loses, he will die, if he succeeds, then he Du Jinlong will become the president of the First Chamber of Commerce in the Eastern Wilderness! Not to mention the rolling financial resources, but also the life extension of five hundred, the cultivation has increased greatly, and all the risks are worth it.
And he doesn't have more than these two results, he will accept it when he sees it, he returns to the Nether with a huge amount of wealth, and he is definitely ten times stronger than before. This decision has a two-thirds success rate, and of course he has to give it a go.
"Listen to the woman first, and act when the opportunity arises, I don't believe that the road is really wilderness. ”
After that, everyone became more and more cautious, and gradually got to know a lot of demonic beasts and poisonous insects in the upper realm, Gu Lanyi also told everyone about the distribution of forces in the upper realm, including the Eastern Wilderness, the Southern Regions, the Western Sea, the Northern Realm, etc., as well as some hidden families, and even the Ancient Emperor and so on.
Everyone was dumbfounded, unable to imagine, and even heard the mad emperor brag about the battle of the emperor he had seen before, destroying the world and shattering the void, some were skeptical, and some directly thought that he was bragging.
If it was a legend, they would believe it, but the old man said that he had seen it with his own eyes, could it be that he had lived for tens of thousands of years and was also an emperor-level figure?
No one believes that just looking at the greedy appearance of the mad emperor eating peanuts and knocking melon seeds along the way, it is impossible for him!
Du Jinlong's words came true three days later.
Looking at the fiery red in the distance ahead, Gu Lanyi said: "There are still two or three miles away from Red Cloud City, we don't have to sleep in the open tonight, go find an inn to stay." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone, including the Gu family, cheered.
Finally able to sleep with peace of mind, they want to have a good rest and feel what the city of the upper realm is like.
Everyone quickened their pace and rushed towards Red Cloud City.
When they walked to the city gate, everyone saw that the fiery red was a bunch of red flowers hanging upside down on the city wall. Like red clouds, clusters and clusters, the fragrance is overflowing, covering the entire city wall, and the red is dazzling.
"This is Red Cloud City, named after this red spark. ”
Gu Lanyi introduced to everyone: "It turned out that this city was not named like this, but later there were more and more red sparks, and a large landscape gradually formed, attracting many people to come to watch, which gave rise to the name of Red Cloud City." ”
Tonight, they're staying here.
