A pair of twin brothers?

If it was an ordinary twin brother, Gu Chen would not be curious, but these two were too similar, like looking in a mirror, and even he had never seen such a similar twin brother.

Without the woman's instructions, the two looked at the situation outside, one directly resisted the fainted shopkeeper, while the other came to Gu Chen with a smile on his face.

"Guest officer, I'm really sorry, it's not that we don't entertain you, you guy pulling the cart, there is really no place to put it in the inn, or you ......." ”

"Little Wu, how do you speak?" Before the man could finish speaking, the woman interrupted him.

Lianbu stepped forward, and the woman said, "When you open the door to do business, how can you push customers out?" Anyway, the stables in the backyard are idle, so they will feed the guests' 'good horses' there. ”

"Yes, boss. ”

Seeing this, Gu Chen didn't say much, and waited until Bai Su came out of the carriage, and then followed the woman into the inn.

The huge inn, although it looks simple, but it is very neat, Gu Chen said, "Boss, you ......." ”

"Childe's title is awkward. The woman interrupted, "Everyone in the city calls me Liu Qi Niang, and if the son is not outside, he can also call me that." ”

"How's Miss Liu?"

"It's good if Childe likes it. Looking at each other, Liu Qiniang suddenly winked at Gu Chen.

Suddenly, Bai Su was inserted between the two, looking at Liu Qiniang with an unkind face, Bai Su said, "What's the matter with you, we are here to stay in the hotel, not to set up friendships, can you arrange it quickly?"

smiled apologetically, Liu Qiniang was not angry, "I'm sorry, please come with me." ”

Longyang Inn, the housing is divided into upper, middle and lower three classes, Gu Chen and Bai Su live in the natural upper class, but the price is indeed more expensive, a room is fifty taels of silver a day, and Gu Chen and Bai Su are one hundred taels a day, if this is in other places, it definitely belongs to the slaughter.

However, this is a border city, Gu Chen knows that this is a place that cannot be measured by the standards of the outside world, and he is not short of money now, so he directly booked a room for a month, which made Liu Qiniang happy for a while.

Although it is a first-class room, the things in the room are very ordinary, the only difference is that it is quiet, the first-class room is on the third floor, ordinary people can't come up, and the sound insulation effect of the room is very good, which can make people quickly enter the empty state needed for cultivation.

Leaning on the bed, a picture kept flashing in Gu Chen's mind, and Liu Qiniang winked at him.

This scene, not only in Bai Su's eyes, but even in all eyes, was trying to seduce him, but in Gu Chen's eyes, it was not the case.

The eyes go straight to the heart, how a person's heart is, you can understand one or two by looking at a person's eyes, and after having the incarnation of a demon, Gu Chen understands even more that the eyes can directly distinguish a person's kind.

Human eyes, unlike demons and beasts, never flickered fluorescent, but when Liu Qiniang winked at her, he clearly saw that a very faint yellow light flashed from it.

If Gu Chen was not mistaken, he could basically conclude that this Liu Qi Niang was probably not a simple human being, either a very powerful demon cultivator who could have completely transformed into a human being, or one of his parents was a demon and one was a human.

Gu Chen had read about this situation when he was in the Dragon and Tiger Army, although under normal circumstances, it was impossible for humans and demons to reproduce offspring, but there were exceptions to everything.

However, no matter what Liu Qiniang's true identity was, Gu Chen didn't feel hostility from her, and if he could stay safe, he wouldn't take the initiative to provoke her.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen just wanted to rest for a while, but suddenly, a slight knock on the door sounded outside.

With a squint of his eyes, a cold light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes, and he could clearly hear the sound of Bai Su's resting breathing next door, but he didn't hear the footsteps outside the door, which showed that the convergence ability of the person who came had reached a very terrifying realm, and correspondingly, the strength would be very strong.

"Come in. After thinking for a while, Gu Chen turned over and jumped off the bed.

"Squeak....... ”

The door opened, and Liu Qiniang walked in with a smile on her face holding a fruit bowl in her hand.

"Gu Gongzi is our big guest, there is nothing to entertain in the small shop, these fruits are the specialties of our border city, you can't eat them outside, you can taste them." ”

didn't treat herself as an outsider at all, Liu Qiniang put the fruit plate on the table and sat directly aside.

Seeing this, Gu Chen smiled, then sat opposite Liu Qiniang, pinched a thumb-sized red fruit from the plate, and put it in his mouth.

"Hmm. ”

Gu Chen nodded, "It's refreshing and delicious, although it's only the size of your thumb, but there is a lot of juice, like drinking a big glass of water, which makes people feel refreshed." ”

"This is the awakening fruit, specially designed to refresh the mind. ”

"Good stuff, worth a lot, right?"

Looking at each other, both of them wanted to see some clues from each other's eyes, but the eyes of the two, one like a deep starry sky, the other like a bottomless abyss, no one could see through it.

The corners of her mouth raised, Liu Qi Niang turned her gaze away, and said, "Gu Gongzi said with a smile, the wild fruits picked in the mountains are just rare, and they are rare when they are said to be rare, but they are not rare, if no one picks them, they are just wild fruits in the mountains." ”

Nodding, Gu Chen said, "Miss Liu didn't come here just to send the next plate of wild fruits, right?"

"Of course, Gu Gongzi is a foreigner, and Qi Niang has been in this city for a long time, if Gu Gongzi has any needs, he can just ask. ”

Door-to-door help?

Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, pies will never fall out of the sky in vain, and the reason why Liu Qiniang is enthusiastic to help herself is probably to know the purpose of her coming here.

However, although Gu Chen has a purpose, it is only for himself.

Without words, Gu Chen directly took out a map of the border city from his bosom and said, "Since Miss Liu is so enthusiastic, then you're welcome, I want to go to this lava valley, I don't know if there is anything to pay attention to?"

Gu Chen's finger pointed on the map, and the three blood-red fonts on it marked that it was Lava Valley.

That's right!

In fact, the reason why Gu Chen came to the border city was for the lava valley, although Fengyang City was thousands of miles in radius, there were countless mountains and rivers, but there were not many places where he could absorb the fire element with peace of mind, Huoyun Mountain was one, but it was too close to Fengyang City.

There is also the lava valley of the city here, for a long time, although Gu Chen has not concentrated on cultivating, but the speed at which he absorbs the vitality of the tiger breath still allows him to reach the state of saturation of the high-level qi sea realm, and he is about to break through to the Yuan Dan realm.

Cultivating to break through is a good thing for anyone, but for Gu Chen, it is a somewhat tricky thing, because it means that he has to absorb more fire elements to suppress the demon power in his body, otherwise once he breaks through the Yuan Dan realm, that is when he turns into a demon.

"Lava Valley, what is Gu Gongzi doing here?"

Looking at Gu Chen with a strange face, Liu Qi Niang's face was a little surprised, obviously, Gu Chen's answer was very different from what she expected.

"Miss Liu, is she asking too much?"

With an embarrassed smile, Liu Qiniang said, "I'm just curious, since Gu Gongzi wants to go to Lava Valley, then I have to persuade you." ”

"What? Can't you go to this lava valley?"

"Not really. ”

Liu Qiniang said, "It's just that three years ago, something strange happened in this lava valley, and since then, no one has gone there. ”

"Strange thing?" Gu Chen looked at Liu Qiniang with a curious expression and said, "What strange thing?"

"Lava Valley has become irritable. ”

"Getting cranky?"

With Liu Qiniang's narration, Gu Chen understood everything, it turned out that the lava valley was very calm in the past, but three years ago, I don't know what happened, and the lava valley became not peaceful.

The calm lava began to boil, and there were often lava columns dozens of feet high, and many people used to go to watch, but after some people died, no one went again.

After listening to Liu Qi Niang's story, Gu Chen couldn't help but squint his eyes, this lava valley is a natural formation, why it has changed, I'm afraid only heaven and earth know, but if this is the reason why Liu Qi Niang stopped him from going to the lava valley, it would be a little too reluctant.

Gu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Is there anything else besides these?"

"Of course. Liu Qiniang stretched out her hand and pointed on the map, and said, "Lava Valley, five hundred miles away from the border city, although it belongs to the range of the border city, but it is already deep in the mountains and forests, such a deep place, it is difficult to ensure that there are no spirits, if you encounter it, are you sure you can survive?"

Like a reminder, more like a threat, Gu Chen didn't answer Liu Qiniang's words, he was silent for a while, and said, "Thank you Miss Liu for your answer, I'm really tired and want to rest for a while." ”

Hearing this, Liu Qiniang didn't say anything more, bowed and left the room.

After Liu Qiniang left, Gu Chen narrowed his eyes, what lava valley **, he didn't care, what he cared about was what Liu Qiniang said at the end.

Weird!

The so-called spirit is the demon in the mouth of everyone, and Liu Qiniang's identity, Gu Chen has already guessed, what she said may be encountered, then it will definitely be encountered.

"It seems that Lava Valley has been occupied by demon cultivators, so it's really a troublesome thing. ”

Thinking of this, Gu Chen couldn't help but shake his head.

As Liu Qiniang said, although the lava valley still belongs to the border city, but the mountain is deep and the road is dangerous, and the place is so deep that it is inaccessible, in other words, although the lava valley belongs to humans on the map, it is actually under the control of demon cultivators, and this is something that Gu Chen did not expect.

If he knew that Lava Valley was under the control of demon cultivators, Gu Chen would definitely not come here, but he had no choice now, because a few days ago he felt that he had broken through the Yuan Dan Realm, and he had been suppressing it all this time, but it had also reached its limit, so he didn't have time to find another place.
