Chapter Ninety-Six: Return to the Border City

Knowing that Gu Chen was in a bad mood, Mo Wen did not take him to Fengwei Mountain, but he personally took a group of people to do an inspection.

Although nothing valuable was found except for a corpse, Mo Wen still wrote a detailed report and sent it to Qingfeng Mansion.

By the time Mo Wen returned to Ziyue Mountain, it was already three days later, and he had just poured a cup of tea, and before he could take a good rest, a dragon and tiger guard rushed in;

Long Huwei held a letter in both hands and knelt down on one knee in front of Mo Wen.

"Whose letter?" Mo Wen furrowed his forehead curiously.

"It was given to you by the Ancient Commander. ”

"Gu Chen?" Mo Wen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly took it.

Why did you leave a letter, is it that the person is gone again?

Mo Wen opened the letter, and after reading it, he furrowed his forehead tightly.

Gu Chen went to the border city!

Because during Fang Long's tenure, he gave up the border city, so after Gu Chen and Mo Wen took office, they discussed whether to retake the border city under the supervision of the Dragon and Tiger Army, but it was easy to give up, but it was difficult to regain it, so the result was not discussed.

And now, Gu Chen went to the border city, saying that he wanted to take back the border city alone, but he didn't say when he would come back.

Take back the border city?

Mo Wen couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's fake to take back the border city, but it's true to be distracted." ”

Although Mo Wen didn't know how important Bai Su was to Gu Chen, he could also see through Gu Chen's reaction during this time that Bai Su was taken away by the Heavenly Ghost Grandma, which hit him hard.

Mo asked, "Did the Ancient Commander just leave this letter, and did he leave anything behind?"

This Dragon Tiger Wei thought for a moment, "I also exchanged four thousand Aiki Pills." ”

"Four thousand?" Mo Wen's eyes widened, "How did he get such a feat?"

Even if he is the commander of the Dragon and Tiger Army, he doesn't want to take it directly from the warehouse if he wants to use it, but he also needs to exchange merit for merit, so Mo Wen is very suspicious, four thousand Aiqi Pills, that is forty thousand meritorious deeds, how did Gu Chen get it?

"The main thing is that the ancient commander exchanged a lot of things. "This Dragon and Tiger Guard," the ancient commander exchanged a lot of mysterious weapons, and then also exchanged a medium-grade spiritual weapon, which had enough merit to exchange four thousand Aiki Pills. ”

"Is that the hammer?"

"Yes. ”

Mo Wen was completely puzzled, what is Gu Chen doing here? He actually exchanged all his weapons, is this going to retire or ...... He has better weapons?

Moreover, exchanging 4,000 Aiki Pills at once is obviously planning to retreat and cultivate.

Thinking of this, Mo Wen smacked his tongue and said, "Commander Gu has not been in a good mood recently, let him go out for a walk, you can retreat." ”

"Yes!"

......

"What, you're here to pay it back?"

Paying back the money seems to have become a greeting between Gu Chen and Liu Qi Niang, but I didn't expect Gu Chen to suddenly appear, Liu Qi Niang was just stunned for a moment, and then smiled like a flower.

Gu Chen didn't say anything until he came to the counter, and then said, "This broken inn, when are you going to open it?" ”

"you. Liu Qiniang rolled her eyes, "My inn is running well, why don't you say auspicious words." ”

Gu Chen laughed for a while and said, "I want to retreat and cultivate. ”

As if she saw that there was something hidden between Gu Chen's eyebrows, Liu Qiniang said, "What's wrong?"

Gu Chen shook his head.

Liu Qiniang seemed to think of something, she looked outside the inn and said, "Where is Bai Su?"

Gu Chen's face sank.

Liu Qiniang nodded thoughtfully, "What happened to her?"

"I was snatched away as an apprentice. ”

Rob?

Liu Qi Niang wrinkled her forehead and said, "Since you want to retreat, then you must choose a quiet place, don't you want to retreat in my inn?"

Gu Chen smiled and brought a jar of wine to the counter; "I'm just here to drink with you today, this is your territory, and I'm here to visit you." ”

"you, a jar of wine is too embarrassing to call drinking?"

Gu Chen knocked on the Qiankun ring and said, "Don't worry, I guarantee that you will be unconscious tonight." ”

"Unconscious, I think it's you. ”

"Just try it. ”

"Try it...... try. ”

I don't know how long it took, and when she felt a little dazzling, Liu Qiniang opened her eyes, and she found that she was lying on the ground very unladylike, and the room was full of empty wine jars.

recalled that she and Gu Chen had been drinking until late at night, and in the end they were still a little behind, but now that she looked at the room, she no longer saw Gu Chen's shadow.

Rubbing her head, Liu Qiniang cursed as she got up, "Damn bastard, my mother is so uncommon to see, don't get me to bed before leaving, what a bastard." ”

Gu Chen is gone, since he wants to retreat, he must go to choose a place and open up a cave.

Although Liu Qiniang can still find him by the taste, she didn't, because she could see that Bai Su was snatched away, which hit him very hard, and he was determined to retreat this time, since this is the case, then let him retreat well.

......

Liu Qiniang was right, Gu Chen really wanted to open up a cave to cultivate, but he was not in such a hurry, in the southeast of the border city, a position near the corner, Gu Chen stopped.

In front of him was a dilapidated old mansion, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a ruined wall, Gu Chen was silent for a moment, and then jumped in.

As soon as Gu Chen jumped into the courtyard, he saw a gray-haired man walking out of the room, looking at each other, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal, as if he was not surprised at all by Gu Chen, a strange intruder.

Seeing the man holding a broken bowl in his hand, he limped to the kitchen, and Gu Chen followed.

As if taking the ancient dust as air, the man opened the lid of the pot by himself, and then took a bowl of slimy porridge from it and ate it.

Gu Chen looked around, everything in the dilapidated kitchen seemed so simple, he pointed to the half bowl of pickled vegetables on the table, and said, "Eat white porridge, you can eat it with pickles." ”

The man didn't squeak, but took a sip of porridge before saying, "That's the noon dish, just put some on the breakfast side." ”

Gu Chen nodded, and he quietly waited for the man to finish the porridge.

Finally, the man spoke, "You don't look like you were sent by Jin Lei, what's the matter, can you just say it?"

"I have nothing to do with Jin Lei. Gu Chen said, "I came to you on a special trip, your name is Li Yiguang, right?"

The man smiled, "I thought everyone had forgotten about me, I had no use value, and I hadn't shown up for years." ”

Gu Chen continued, "Li Yiguang, eighteen years ago, you were selected by the Dragon and Tiger Army as the city lord of the border city, in charge and control of this region, you are only forty-three years old this year, it seems that you have suffered a lot, and you have grown like this. ”

Li Yiguang's face was shocked, and he looked at Gu Chen's eyes, full of disbelief, because no one except the Dragon Tiger Army knew that he was forty-three years old this year.

When he came to take up the post of the lord of the subordinate city here, considering that twenty-five was not too calm at an age, he falsely reported that he was two years old and lied that he was twenty-seven years old.......

Looking at Li Yiguang's excited face, Gu Chen said, "Since the border city has been occupied, why do you want to stay here?"

Li Yiguang wiped his eyes and choked up, "My wife, a son and a daughter are buried here, where can I go?"

Gu Chen took a deep breath, he grabbed Li Yiguang's wrist, then closed his eyes, and after waiting for his eyes to open, he said, "Fortunately, although there are many old injuries, there is still a possibility of recovery in the body." ”

As he spoke, Gu Chen took out a porcelain bottle and said, "There are ten Aiki Pills here, which are more than enough to restore your body, but don't be found out that you are recovering." ”

"When will the adults deal with Jin Lei?" Li Yiguang hurriedly asked.

"Wait a while. Gu Chen thought for a moment and said, "You recover well first, and the next time I come to you, I will let you kill Jin Lei with your own hands." ”

Li Yiguang wanted to say something, but Gu Chen left here.

It's not that Gu Chen doesn't want to help Li Yiguang get out of trouble quickly, but to recapture the border city, it's not an overnight thing, killing Jin Lei is simple, for Gu Chen, it's just a cup of tea, but after killing Jin Lei, the border city is not so easy to deal with, there are many things to consider, otherwise, the border city will become a mess, and even I don't know how many people die or live.

Crossing the wide river by boat again, Gu Chen entered the vast and endless mountain range, he still did not rush to open up the cave, but just went to the depths, sometimes chasing some small beasts along the way, sometimes running wildly.

Finally, Gu Chen himself didn't know how deep he had entered the mountain range, and he didn't even know if he had left the range of Fengyang City, so he stopped.

In front of him was a waterfall, the waterfall fell from a hundred-zhang high cliff, and fell in the waterhole with a huge roar, like the sound of thousands of troops and horses galloping, he decided, and chose the cave behind this waterfall.

After experiencing nearly a hundred repetitions of being washed into the pool by the waterfall, Gu Chen finally gained a firm foothold behind the waterfall, and everything will become easy.

Gu Chen's two pairs of sharp claws, like cutting tofu, only took less than a day to open up a deep cave, the cave turned left and right, although the roar of the waterfall outside was loud, but after going deep inside, there was no sound.

Gu Chen directly incarnated into a demon form, ate a bottle of Aiki Pill in one bite, and began a tiger's breath-style cultivation.

In fact, Gu Chen has always had a question in his heart, is it that he needs more vitality to improve his cultivation than others?

Because of the vitality absorbed by his tiger breath cultivation, coupled with the vitality absorbed by swallowing pills, he was indeed much more than others.
