Chapter 55: The Trap
The next day, as the sun was setting in the west, a man and a woman walked into Plains Town.
Although Pingyuan Town is located on the northeast border of Fengyang City, the people in the town may not be able to witness what Fengyang City is like in their lifetime, but the people who live here are not necessarily poor.
Plains Town, as its name suggests, is a fertile plain, and for this reason, people who live here will have no worries about food and clothing as long as they are willing to use their hands.
In a quiet small restaurant, there were only Gu Chen and Bai Su, after all, it was past the time to eat, and the restaurant was also idle.
When it was time to settle the bill, Gu Chen directly took out a silver ingot and stuffed it to the shopkeeper, saying, "No need to look for it." ”
Without warning!
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, such a big ingot of silver, if you don't look for it, you won't look for it?
I've met a rich man!
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper came back to his senses suddenly, he was about to thank Gu Chen, but Gu Chen held him down, and said, "Ask you a few questions, answer truthfully, and there will be a reward." As he spoke, Gu Chen lit up another ingot of silver in his hand.
The shopkeeper couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, for fear of being heard, and said in a low voice, "Childe, you ask, as long as the little one knows, you ask the little eighteenth generation ancestor who the little one is, and the little one will tell you." ”
"Let me ask you what your eighteenth generation ancestors do?" Gu Chen said, "I guess you can also see that I am a rich man, very rich. ”
The shop guy is like a chicken pecking rice, snapping and pointing his head, and the blind can also see that this shot is unprecedented!
Gu Chen said, "Although I am very rich, but there is no one, I heard that near your plain town, there is a horse gate or a Humen, specializing in some robbery, how should I hide?"
It turned out that I was worried about being robbed!
The shopkeeper suddenly realized and said, "Guest officer, we do have a horse gate here, and we do have a Hu door, both of which are specialized in this kind of thing, I don't know where you are going?"
With a shocked look, Gu Chen pointed to the west and said, "I'm going west." ”
"To the west?" the shopkeeper frowned his forehead and said, "Childe, then you have to take a detour, the west road is just right through these two forces, if you go straight, you will definitely be caught, but you just need to go around to another road ten miles to the south, and you will be fine." ”
"Ten miles away?" Gu Chen doubted, "It's just ten miles away, so close, can you be sure it's okay?"
"I couldn't guarantee it before, but now it's fine. The shopkeeper affirmed, "In the past, the forces of Mamen and Humen covered a radius of 100 miles, and guests who went west had to detour at least 100 miles to the south before they dared to say that it was safe, but more than half a year ago, I don't know what happened, the two forces were all converged, and even they rarely appear now." ”
"Rarely?" Gu Chen frowned his forehead and said, "Very good, this is yours." ”
As he spoke, Gu Chen stuffed the silver ingot in his hand into the shopkeeper's hand, and then left here in the shopkeeper's gratitude.
In a forest outside Pingyuan Town, Bai Su looked at Gu Chen in confusion and said, "Brother Chen, what happened, why didn't you speak after hearing that these two forces had converged?"
Bai Su felt very strange, originally she looked at Gu Chen and was full of confidence, but now, his expression was as if these two forces were a big hedgehog, and he couldn't say anything.
"Because things are more troublesome than I thought. Gu Chen said in a deep voice, "Bai Su, do you know why Mamen and Humen converged?"
Looking at Gu Chen's eyes, Bai Su shook his head, "I'm also a little confused, but I really haven't figured it out. ”
"There are other dragons and tigers here. ”
"What?" Bai Su was stunned for a moment, her eyes widened suddenly, she first looked around, and then whispered, "Brother Chen, do you mean that the reason why Mamen and Humen converge is because there are other dragon and tiger guards here?"
"That's right. Gu Chen said in a deep voice, "If I guessed correctly, this is Fang Long's plan, I don't know how many dragon and tiger guards he sent, but there must be dragon and tiger guards here, his purpose is very clear, let the dragon and tiger army limit the range of activities of Mamen and Humen, ensure that they do not go out, and will not be sneak attacked, so that I will not be able to complete the task, once the time of the year is up, I have not completed the task, then I go back, he will have a reason to arrange a dangerous task for me, if I don't go back, he can issue a city-wide wanted warrant in an open and open manner to eradicate me!" ”
Unexpectedly, Fang Long actually had such a plan, Bai Su looked stunned, and after a long time, she said nervously, "Brother Chen, then what should we do now?"
If Gu Chen's guess is true, then whether it is Mamen or Humen, it is now a trap waiting for him to jump, as long as he goes, he will inevitably face it.
Gu Chen was silent for a while, and his mouth curved in an arc; "What's the hurry, anyway, there is still plenty of time, so it's not bad to go and cultivate first." ”
It seems that I didn't take this matter to heart at all, and since there is no countermeasure now, then I will leave it alone for the time being.
On a steep mountain peak, Gu Chen opened a cave, and then began to cultivate seriously, still in the tiger breath style, the three postures changed back and forth, and the vitality in his body increased wildly, and Bai Su had been cultivating in the border city for half a year, and now she didn't want to cultivate, so she was responsible for going down the mountain to find out the news, and she would come back every once in a while.
Time passed little by little, Gu Chen didn't know how much time he had spent immersed in cultivation, he only knew that the Yuan Dan, which was originally only the size of a soybean, finally became the size of a broad bean.
Finally, on a morning when the red sun was rising, when he continued to absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi with the Tiger Breath Style, the thumb-sized Yuan Dan was once again a point larger, and it was this change that made his entire Qi Sea shake for a while.
With the vibration of the sea of qi, Gu Chen felt that his body was washed by a force, and his muscle strength and toughness improved again.
"Intermediate Yuan Dan Realm. His eyes opened, Gu Chen muttered, and then stood up.
A finger stretched out, and a cyan vitality appeared, feeling the essence of this vitality by another point, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
And at this moment, Gu Chen heard a roaring sound coming quickly, his forehead wrinkled, and then he saw a huge body break into the cave.
It was a three-meter-tall giant man, the big man had a fierce face, like an iron tower, filling the entire hole, and on his shoulder, there was a petite woman, it was Bai Su, and the big man was obviously the walking corpse.
In the half a year in the border city, Bai Su was not idle, not only opened up the sea of qi, but also completed the complete refining of the walking corpse, and was able to control it skillfully.
The eyes of the walking corpse are no longer harmed by normal people, no longer a dark blue light, except that the body is too burly, there is no abnormality at all.
The walking corpse's palm stretched out to his shoulder, Bai Su stepped on it, and then the walking corpse slowly lowered his palm to the ground, allowing Bai Su to walk down smoothly.
Seeing this scene, Gu Chen smiled dumbly.
Bai Su smiled and hugged Gu Chen's arm, "Brother Chen, praise me." ”
Thinking that Bai Su was coquettish with herself, Gu Chen pressed her head and said, "What are you praising you, praising you for being as skilled as a doll at playing with the walking dead?"
"It's not. Bai Su pouted, "I have good news for you, hurry up and praise me." ”
"Good news?" Gu Chen said with a smile, "How do you want me to praise you?"
"Yes. Bai Su thought for a moment, "Praise me for being beautiful." ”
"Okay, Bai Su is very smart. ”
"You!" Bai Suqi pouted angrily and let go of Gu Chen's arm.
Seeing this, Gu Chen shook his head with a smile, he grabbed Bai Su's shoulders and said, "Bai Su is very beautiful, Bai Su is the most beautiful girl in the world." ”
"Hey, hey. Bai Su was immediately happy, and she said happily, "Forgive you, Brother Chen, do you know that I went down the mountain this time to inquire about a particularly important piece of information." ”
Looking at Bai Su quietly, Gu Chen looked suspicious, it was not that he didn't believe what Bai Su said, he believed that there must be information, but it was not necessarily important whether it was important or not, because during this time, every time she came to report important discoveries, it was some dispensable information.
Looking at Gu Chen's eyes, Bai Su grinned awkwardly and said, "This time is really important." ”
"Tell me about it. ”
"Brother Chen, have you ever heard of the jade-faced Langjun Lin Zhengbai?"
"Jade-faced Langjun Lin Zhengbai?" Gu Chen pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, but it sounds like a little white-faced name." ”
"It's not. Bai Su said, "Brother Chen, this Lin Zhengbai is not simple, I overheard it today, he turned out to be the owner here." ”
"The master here?"
Bai Su explained, "It's this big place, it's his territory. ”
"Really?" Gu Chen said in surprise, "But why have we only heard of Mamen and Humen, but not of Linmen?"
"It's a matter of the past, Lin Zhengbai retired a long time before Ma Biao and Hu San...... As Bai Su said slowly, Gu Chen realized that there was such a thing behind what he didn't know.
Ma Biao and Hu San are Lin Zhengbai's righteous sons!
Long before Ma Biao and Hu San, this was Lin Zhengbai's world, but later, as Lin Zhengbai got older, he also felt that the emperor of the soil was enough, so he chose to retire, but he knew that he had committed too many sins in Fengyang City, and he was worried that the Dragon and Tiger Army would find him sooner or later to settle accounts, so he hid in Jingyang City next door.
Jingyang City and Fengyang City are cities of the same level, the two cities are next to each other, and there is a Snow Dragon Mountain Range in between, but it is this mountain range that makes it impossible for the Dragon and Tiger Army of Fengyang City to cross the border to pursue him, and he has not committed any crimes in Jingyang City, let alone provoke the Dragon and Tiger Army of Jingyang City.
If the dragon and tiger armies of the two cities could communicate with each other, they would definitely take him down as soon as possible, but the ready-made tasks in their respective cities were backlogged, who was in the mood to care about him, so Lin Zhengbai took advantage of a mountain range to get away with it today, and even cultivated Ma Biao and Hu San, two righteous sons, What's more, let Ma Biao and Hu San continue to scourge in Fengyang City according to his previous routine.
"This old miscellaneous hair, he even wants to pass on the position of this soil emperor from generation to generation, I think he really doesn't know how the dead word is written!"
With a fierce light in his eyes, Gu Chen punched down, directly smashing an inch-deep fist mark on the wall.
