Chapter 538: Acquaintances, Encircled!
There are many existences like him in the Wulin Continent. And when the World Beads were relocated, Zhou Zhigang was not a small martial artist in the dark period.
It can be said that he is not outstanding at all, and there are not many people who know him in the Wulin Continent.
No one would have thought that someone like him would come out on top.
But that's how dramatic things are. In October last year, a major event occurred in the Wulin Continent that changed the fate of many people.
At that time, I heard that the passage would be closed for a short time, and many people were so frightened that they left the Wulin Continent.
And for Zhou Zhigao at that time, there was no need to consider it at all.
Because he is an orphan and has no family to worry about, he belongs to the type where one person feeds the whole family and does not go hungry.
Therefore, when others were still struggling, Zhou Zhigao didn't take it to heart at all.
Later, when he heard that the passage would be closed in two days, he saw that there was enough time, and then he thought that he had come out of the orphanage anyway, and if the Wulin Continent really couldn't be connected to the earth in the future, then he should give them some money to go over, and it could be regarded as repaying the kindness of nurturing.
So, Zhou Zhigao took out some medicinal materials and exchanged them for a little money. Then the orphanage was called eight million over.
For a dark martial artist, eight million is not much, but it is not much. This is still the case when some big bosses bought medicinal herbs, so he got so much money.
After sending the money to the orphanage, he had no resources available for cultivation. Therefore, at that time, he didn't care about other people's entanglements, and went directly into the mountain.
He wanted to take advantage of the time when others were struggling, and maybe he could find more medicinal materials.
The next night, in the middle of the night, he felt something run into his body. Originally, he thought it was some kind of demon beast, and thought that his life was about to be short.
But unexpectedly, the next day, when he woke up again, he accidentally collapsed the cave where he was hiding.
He was almost buried alive.
finally escaped, and he found that he didn't know when, his strength had been greatly improved.
At that time, he thought that he had broken through to the stage of transformation. He was so happy at the time.
But it didn't take long for him to find some videos of the battle during the Transformation Period on the Internet, and he found that those Transformation Masters he had to look up to before could be treated easily.
For such a discovery, Zhou Zhigao was taken aback.
Originally, when he broke through to the stage of transformation, he felt that he was dreaming, and at this time he told him that he had not only broken through to the period of transformation, but Zhou Zhigao's little heart was a little unbearable.
No matter what, the first thing he should pay attention to now is to master his own strength, otherwise he will not be able to control his strength at every turn, and no one will be able to stand it.
Fortunately, he was in the mountains and forests at the time, and he was not afraid of being discovered by others.
After that, Zhou Zhigao was also worried about whether something had happened to him, but he observed it for a few days, and he didn't find anything wrong with him. He was slowly relieved.
Of course, although he didn't know what was going on in him, he also knew that it was better to keep his anomaly secret and not let people know about it.
In fact, people who had the same experience as him had the same idea about this, and none of them said it.
After that, they made the same choice as Zhou Zhigao, that is, to go deeper into the mountains and forests to find all kinds of resources that could make them money.
Then slowly accumulate wealth.
Two months have passed.
It wasn't until a while before the Chinese New Year that they saw the video of Ye Bo and Liu Zhigang fighting on the Internet, and some of them realized that they had unconsciously broken through to the Baodan period.
But unfortunately, most of them didn't have follow-up exercises, so they wanted to be able to buy cultivation cheats. In the past few months, they have almost all turned into wild people.
Zhou Zhigao is the same.
But their good days didn't last long, and I don't know what those big forces are crazy about. Didn't they all like to enjoy other offerings before, but this time, I don't know why they went crazy and sent out all the disciples they could send out.
So. So that Zhou Zhigao and they can meet those big forces wherever they go.
If that's all there is to it, forget it. Those who are in the big forces, in order to raise contribution points, many people have begun to have crooked ideas.
The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, and there are some people in various forces who are not very good-quality. So in the forest, there are some roadblocks and robberies, which is not surprising.
Of course, the targets they attack are generally ordinary people, and they will not attack people who are also big forces.
And Zhou Zhigao is also a scattered person, he doesn't look remarkable, and his strength is not bad, so the harvest is much stronger than the average person.
And a lone ranger like him is the best target for those big forces to rob.
Zhou Zhigao has been busy in the mountains for half a month. He wrapped some of the things he had harvested in a demon beast skin, and was about to return to the city to exchange them for contribution points to continue into the mountain.
Who let him have no storage equipment, so he had to wrap it in demon animal skin.
On this day, just as Zhou Zhigao was carrying a burden bigger than everyone else back to the city, he saw some people coming from afar.
Originally, he was low-key, and he wanted to get around. But it's a pity that he was carrying such a big package, the target was too obvious, and when he saw the other party, the people on the other side also saw him.
Seeing him carrying such a large package, in the eyes of many people, it is like a three-year-old child walking on the street with a gold brick in his hand. Isn't that seduceing someone to sin?
People's minds are inherently easy to change, and no one knows whether they will be able to withstand temptation in the next moment.
What's more, among those people, there was one person who recognized Zhou Zhigao.
That person had formed a team with Zhou Zhigao a long time ago, but he was lucky enough to join the Cao Gang, which in ancient times was a group of coolies who begged for a living in various rivers. Of course, many times, they are coolies during the day and turn into water bandits at night, and since ancient times, although the Cao Gang has a bad reputation, it has never been broken.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the state cracked down on road rage bandits more strictly, and they stopped for a while.
Later, after the emergence of the Wulin Continent, the power of the Cao Gang also developed to the Wulin Continent. It's just a pity that at that time, Li Qingyun was not small in terms of some things that undermined the harmony of the martial arts continent.
They all had to keep a low profile.
But this time, the above sent a message, asking them to use no matter what method they use, they can only get contribution points, and if they have contribution points, they will have to use it to exchange a lot of cultivation resources from the gang.
So even ordinary people, if they want to find a backer, as long as they donate contribution points, they will be received by the gang. The Cao Gang originally relied on a large number of people.
Therefore, Zhou Zhigao's acquaintance, in order to have a big force as a backer, joined the Cao Gang.
The person who joined the Cao Gang was not a good person in the first place, and it is possible that he had just joined and was eager to make meritorious contributions. At this time, when he saw Zhou Zhigao, the man's eyes lit up.
Although he and Zhou Zhigao are not too familiar, he probably also knows some things about Zhou Zhigao, such as Zhou Zhigao is an orphan and has no background, which he still knows.
If Zhou Zhigao didn't bring many things at this time, then forget it, for the sake of the previous cooperation, maybe he wouldn't embarrass him.
But it's no wonder that Zhou Zhigao is carrying such a big burden. Fools also know that it must be worth a lot of contribution points. If you can get it over, that's a big credit.
If you want to blame, you can only blame Zhou Zhigao for not having a backstage.
Therefore, Zhou Zhigao saw the group of people in front of him, and he didn't know what a person said, and then walked directly towards him.
And they also fanned Zhou Zhigao in a half-encirclement.
Zhou Zhigao couldn't help frowning. He didn't want to cause trouble, but many times, life is so helpless. He doesn't cause trouble, but things find him on their own.
If it was before, he could only consider himself unlucky when he encountered such a thing.
But that's no longer the case. At this time, he is no longer the submissive person he used to be.
Originally, he was bullied by others before, but because he grew up in an orphanage, many times, he paid attention to more than less. I put up with it.
But today, I don't know why, when he found out that those people might do something to himself, not only did he not panic a little, but he was also a little excited. Even, he felt his blood start to boil.
Not only did he not complain about his acquaintance, but he was very grateful to him in his heart.
For a while, he didn't kill any demon beasts, which was unimaginable before, but he really hadn't fought against anyone.
He could see at a glance that among the people opposite, there were two masters of transforming energy, and the others were all dark energy.
If he had encountered such a team a few months ago, he would not have raised the slightest sense of resistance. But now it's different.
Those people in the Cao Gang are also very curious, they have not done anything less in the past month. Otherwise, they wouldn't have two Transformation Masters to lead the team, just in case. When I met such a person before, I guess I was already scared stupid, either I turned around and ran, or I begged for it. But when they found their prey, they were so excited that they didn't seem to take them to heart at all.
However, they took a closer look at Zhou Zhigao, and they thought to themselves, they thought to themselves.
