Chapter 24 Ring Light Wave!
After eating a piece of barbecue, Gu Lang's face was flushed and his whole body was hot.
This piece of barbecue is full of aura, and it is a great supplement for him. During this period of time, he practiced the knife every day, and his body had been tempered and solid, and his realm cultivation had also been consolidated.
After eating a piece of perilla, I knew the benefits of this meat and wanted to eat it again.
Gu Lang hurriedly stopped her, put away the rest of the meat, and said, "Eating some of this kind of thing is good for the body, but it is not advisable to eat more." ”
Shisu looked at the man in white with some suspicion and asked him to express his opinion.
The man in white also nodded and said, "Eating this barbecue meat can indeed make your cultivation improve." But eating some is enough, and more is not good for the body. Without cultivation and hammering, it is like walking on ice, and the foundation is unstable. ”
Shiso then stopped, took a handkerchief, and wiped the oil stains on his hands.
"Hey, the barbecue has also been eaten, why hasn't the person you been waiting for come yet?" Zi Su asked the man in white.
The man in white smiled, "Who said they didn't come? ”
The man in white said "they", indicating that there was more than one person coming. Gu Lang immediately looked around, but he didn't find anyone hiding nearby, not to mention a few people, not even a single figure.
The red-yellow glow of the fire illuminated only a small area, and the meager power of the fire was not enough to dispel the darkness of the entire forest, and farther away, all the trees seemed to be joined together to form a dense black wall. Gu Lang felt that the three of them were trapped in this impregnable wall, like trapped beasts.
Moreover, in this black wall, there are also countless terrifying monsters hidden, Gu Lang scans around to prevent someone from suddenly jumping out.
"Where? don't scare me!" Shiso was also making his rounds, but he wasn't so scared.
The man in white smiled: "They have already arrived, they came a little earlier than you, but you haven't noticed it." ”
"What?"
Gu Lang was taken aback, there were other people here all the time. Looking at the man in white, Gu Lang didn't even blink his eyes, when he first came here, he carefully inspected and observed, just worried about falling into the trap of others. But what's going on now? According to the man in white, is he killing himself?
Zi Su stared at the man in white with a flickering gaze, she still hadn't noticed anyone else, but she was extremely vigilant against the man in white, as long as the man in white moved a little, I was afraid that she would make a move in an instant.
The man in white smiled and waved at the two of them, signaling them to be calm.
Then he inserted his fingers into the bun on his head, as if he had found a small thing from it, and put it in the palm of his hand for Gu Lang Zisu to see.
Although the light of the fire was dim, the two of them could see that the black dot that kept moving in the palm of the man in white was a small beetle.
Shiso asked, "What is this?"
Gu Lang said: "I know that there is a kind of insect with a small body and a pair of existences, even if one is in a distance, the one that is paired with it can also sense its position." Therefore, some people use special methods to cultivate this kind of insect, so that its whereabouts are hidden and difficult to be discovered, and it is used to track and locate it. ”
"And this kind of thing? Isn't that a must-have for killing people and stealing goods?" Shiso laughed.
Gu Lang nodded and said, "This is also one of the uses of this insect." It's just that trying to breed this insect to the point where it is not easy to be detected requires extremely high resources and energy, and the success rate is very low. Therefore, this kind of bug is still relatively rare, and the price is also high. This bug, even you haven't found it, I estimate that a pair of such bugs can be exchanged for a good spiritual weapon. ”
The man in white pinched the beetle to death, and said with a smile: "The little brother is well-informed, and what he said is not bad, he can use such a hidden insect to track me, and that person has also invested a lot of money." ”
A voice suddenly sounded in the forest: "If you want to harvest, you naturally have to spend a lot of money, otherwise how can the harvest be satisfying?"
Gu Lang immediately shifted his gaze to the place where the voice came from, and an old man on crutches gradually revealed his figure from the darkness. This person is the old man in front of the white-clothed man's stall during the day.
The old man walked out of the shadows and said coldly, "I originally wanted to take your things and let you live." I didn't expect you to kill my hidden insect, so you should die too!"
As the old man spoke, more than a dozen people came out of the darkness one after another.
They were around the fire, and they happened to surround Gu Lang and them.
Perhaps thinking that the man in white had been surrounded by them and had no possibility of escaping, the old man said, "You must know that the night panther that you roasted and ate will also run away with his tail between his legs when he sees me and others." I don't know where you got the confidence to dare to wait for us here. ”
Gu Lang suddenly asked, "You are skilled, have you been doing this for a long time?"
The old man said proudly: "Long before the opening of the fairy garden, a few of us have been making a living here, and it has been more than ten years. ”
Gu Lang's heart began to beat wildly, and his eyes glanced at the man in white.
You must know that if everything is overly suppressed, once released, there will inevitably be a violent surge. The same is true for the people in the Immortal Garden, when the Immortal Garden is closed, it is difficult for them to cultivate and enter the realm, but if it coincides with the opening of the Immortal Garden, once the confinement that restricts them from breaking through is lifted, their strength will grow rapidly like a volcanic eruption.
According to the old man's words, he has been robbing around here for more than ten years, as early as when the fairy garden was closed, he had such strength, at this time the fairy garden has been open for more than a month, and the old man's strength may have broken through to a more powerful level. From this point of view, it is no wonder that Gu Lang failed to find their traces.
Gu Lang looked at the man in white to see how he reacted.
The man in white was still unfazed, and he didn't seem to take the old man and the others seriously at all.
The old man is indeed not young, and he has the common disease of the elderly, and he talks a lot.
"The old man has lived near this city for more than 60 years, but unfortunately the injustice of God made me born 40 years early, so that I missed the golden age of the opening of the fairy garden. The old man pointed to the dark night sky with the cane in his hand, and his face was sad. "However, fate is always in my own hands, and I have developed a pair of discerning eyes after decades of wandering in the city's trading market. ”
The old man sneered at the man in white: "Young man, if you don't understand the truth that wealth is not exposed, others may not be able to see it, but the old man still recognizes that there are a few treasures among the items you sell.
Gu Lang suddenly felt that no wonder this old man was extremely obsessed with the black iron of the man in white, it turned out that he really saw the mystery.
I am afraid that the hidden insects in the white-clothed man's bun were also put in by the old man at that time.
At this time, one of the old man's companions said: "What are you doing with him talking so much nonsense, just let him hand over everything." ”
The old man nodded and said to the man in white, "I have lived here for more than sixty years, and I originally thought that I would spend my whole life here. The opening of the fairy garden at this time is my new beginning. Hurry up and take out all the things on your body, and we'll keep you with a whole corpse. I'll wait until I get the treasure, so I can leave this small place and seek a breakthrough in the wider world. ”
The man in white was unfazed, as if the person being threatened was not him.
Gu Lang also admitted that since he saw the man in white, he had always been like this, as if he had seen the situation all over the world and was fearless.
"Is he scared stupid? Why don't you speak?"
The old man's companion began to laugh, "Haha, aren't you seeing a lot of people like this? But this guy is much better than the person who hugged my thigh and begged for mercy some time ago." ”
The man in white still smiled faintly, and did not respond to the old man and the others, but said to Gu Lang and the others: "What do you say?"
Until this time, the old man and the others were all coercing the man in white, and they didn't seem to have the idea of endangering Gu Lang Zisu. Even if he wanted the life of the man in white, it was because he pinched the old man's hidden worm.
Gu Lang didn't think much about it, and smiled directly at the man in white: "I want to ...... We should be in this together. ”
The old man and the others were nothing but a group of vicious robbers. Maybe they have their own livelihood on weekdays, but once they see something precious, they immediately gather together to seek wealth and kill them. Gu Lang didn't think that their group would just target the man in white and let himself and Zisu go.
"Haha! ”
"Hey, little girl, you're not going to follow them to your own death, are you?"
"It would be a pity if such a beautiful little girl died, so it would be better to follow me and be a personal maid. ”
Zi Su's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he directly took out the long sword, looking like he was going to fight desperately at any time. However, Gu Lang found that her eyes kept glancing at the gap in the encirclement, she clearly wanted to escape, and that angry look was just pretending to deceive people.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense!" the old man stopped the gossip of his companion and said coldly to the man in white: "If you don't hand over everything, don't you have to ask the old man to make a move?"
The old man's companion advanced step by step with weapons in hand, narrowing the encirclement.
Gu Lang also hurriedly took out the short knife and prepared to attack.
Although Shiso also has a long sword in his hand, he already has the idea of escaping. Her body is peculiar, and it is unknown whether she can escape alone, but she can't escape with Gu Lang. Therefore, Gu Lang could only pin all his hopes on the man in white at this time.
And the man in white stood with his hands in his hands, and he didn't even take out his weapon.
Just when Gu Lang wondered if the man in white had given up resisting, the man in white waved his sleeves slightly, and a white ring of light from the center of the man in white flashed away in mid-air.
Gu Lang watched as the ring light wave passed through his body, and then flashed towards the people surrounding them.
Some of those people didn't care about the man in white, but there were also cautious people who took out a defensive spirit weapon to protect themselves when the man in white just made a move, but the white light seemed to be illusory, without any collision, and it also passed through directly.
Gu Lang was still wondering why the man in white released a useless white light, but when he looked back, the man in white had disappeared.
Only his voice came from the air: "Haha, I didn't help you fight before, so I'm not qualified to share the spoils." Although you didn't make a move this time, you are still on the same side as me, and these people's items will be divided into your spoils. ”
