In front of the inn, a guy was soliciting guests in front of the door, and when he saw Gu Chen walking towards him, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist, do you want to stay in the hotel?"

I'm used to hearing 'guest officer', and now being called a 'Taoist friend' is somewhat awkward, but this guy is indeed a beginner-level soul release realm cultivator, and there is nothing wrong with this title.

"Fellow Daoist, we are from other places and plan to live permanently. ”

"Yo, distinguished guest, quick, please inside. "The guy was immediately enthusiastic.

Gu Chen waved his hand, and he squeaked, "That, fellow Daoist, I, I ......." ”

"What's wrong?

"Hey. Gu Chen smiled awkwardly and said, "I, I want to ask if I can take credit?"

The shopkeeper had a stunned look on his face, "What did you say?"

"That's right, my companion and I, because we had some accidents on the way here, don't have much money on us now, so can we pay it on credit first, and I'll definitely pay it back later. ”

The shopkeeper made a stop gesture and said, "Get out!"

"Hey, how are you swearing?"

"What's wrong with scolding you?" the shopkeeper had a disdainful expression, "I don't know where I came from, two dirt buns, don't go into the city if you can't afford to live, what kind of big head is pretended, and you pay on credit, just your cultivation of the middle-level soul release realm, I don't know if you can survive for three days, get out of here." ”

The shopkeeper was extremely impatient, insulted, turned back, and Gu Chen was like a deflated gourd, his face was flushed, but he didn't dare to get angry.

At this moment, Er Niu stepped forward and comforted, "Okay Guchen, let's go, if it's really not good, let's make do outside the city first, find a hiding place to live, there will always be a way." ”

Gu Chen nodded helplessly, "Now it seems that it can only be like this." ”

After saying this, Gu Chen and the two walked forward in frustration, and suddenly, before the two of them walked out of a hundred meters, a voice sounded behind the two; ”

Gu Chen and Er Niu stopped and looked back, and it was the emaciated man chasing after them.

Gu Chen's face was innocent, "Fellow Daoist, do we know each other?"

The man hurriedly smiled and shook his head, "I didn't know each other before, but now I don't know each other, in Xia Hou Xu." ”

Gu Chen looked honest, busy clenching his fists; "It turned out to be Brother Hou, in Guchen, this is my brother Erniu." ”

The second cow hugged his fist.

Hou Xu cupped his fists and saluted back, saying, "Brother Gu, I saw it all just now. ”

Gu Chen's face couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, "Brother Hou smiled, we actually just came to Shengzhou, I didn't expect that the consumption here is so expensive, so the preparation is not very sufficient." ”

Hou Xu knew this as soon as he could, and said, "I guess that's it, two people like this, I can help a lot." ”

Gu Chen was stunned for a moment, "Help? this...... How can I help?"

Hou Xu said, "People who don't know the situation in Shengzhou, most of them are like the two, they will encounter such a situation when they come here, and the most difficult thing is how to solve the problem of residence, because they all know that there is no protection outside the city, and it is too dangerous. ”

Gu Chen nodded, "That's true. ”

Hou Xu continued, "But the two of you don't know, in fact, there are some safe places outside the city. ”

"Is there a safe place outside the city?" Gu Chen looked suspicious.

"That's right. Hou Xu said, "In fact, many strong people with good strength have their own forces outside the city, although these spheres of influence are not as safe as in the city, but relatively speaking, they are also very safe, and the important thing is that the fees are low." ”

Hearing that the fee was low, Gu Chen seemed to see hope, and after glancing at Erniu, he hurriedly said, "How low?"

"Different places, different fees, and moreover, there are some that don't cost money. ”

"Don't want money?" Gu Chen looked incredulous.

"That's right. Hou Xu said, "But there are very few such forces, but I know one, are the two of you interested?"

Hearing Hou Xu say this, Gu Chen couldn't help but be suspicious: "Brother Hou, I still don't understand, there is such a good thing in the world?"

Knowing that Gu Chen's suspicion was a trap, Hou Xu couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Gu has thought about it a lot, although he doesn't want money, but he also has other conditions. ”

"Other conditions?"

"Yes, the so-called grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by a spring, and my eldest brother believes in this, so he unconditionally helps you newcomers, just in exchange for a promise from you, that is, when you are prosperous, you can still remember his kindness, and when he is in trouble, you can help him. ”

Cast a long line to catch big fish!

Sounds very reasonable, Gu Chen said, "That's all?"

Hou Xu looked innocent, "Otherwise, do you think it's a trap? Don't make trouble, you two are poor and can't even afford to live in an inn, and the robbers dislike you for being poor." ”

Hou Xu's words, although they are a joke, can remove people's vigilance.

Gu Chen took advantage of the situation, he and Er Niu glanced at each other, and then hugged their fists at Hou Xu again, "I am so grateful to Brother Hou, it is our luck to meet a kind person like you." ”

Hou Xu smiled, "Okay, as long as you can remember this kindness, it's almost dark now, let's go quickly, my eldest brother's place is not close to the city, more than three hundred miles, let's not delay." ”

After saying this, Hou Xu led the way in front, and Gu Chen and Er Niu, who were following behind, looked at each other and smiled, and a touch of cunning appeared at the corner of their mouths at the same time.

When you enter the city, you need a city order, which is very strict, but when you go out of the city, no one cares, and after the three of Gu Chen leave the city, they go straight to the vast mountains in the east.

was speechless all the way, and finally, after about three hundred miles, Hou Xu stopped in front of a cliff, watched cautiously left and right, and directly put his handprint on it.

The cliff wall rippled like ripples, and then disappeared, and a dark cave suddenly appeared, Hou Xu hurriedly beckoned, "Quick, come in." ”

Gu Chen and Erniu were bold, and they didn't care if there were ambushes or traps inside, so they strode in directly.

The phantom array activated again, and then the cave disappeared and turned into a cliff.

In the dark cave mansion, Hou Xu led the way in front of him, snapped his fingers, and the torch illuminated the place, and at this moment Gu Chen and Er Niu clearly saw the whole picture;

After entering the cave, Hou Xu no longer took care of the two, walked to the seat above the cave by himself, and then picked up a pot of wine and drank it.

After Gu Chen looked around, he said, "Erniu, there is a smell of blood in this cave where the old and the new meet. ”

"Looks like he's killed quite a few people. ”

Gu Chen tilted his shoulders and said, "Brother Hou, I don't know where your eldest brother is?"

At this moment, Hou Xu leaned coldly on the seat above the main hall, with a disdainful expression, compared with the enthusiastic appearance in the city, it was like two people.

"Two Han Xiong, with this kind of brain, dare to say that they are cultivators?"

Gu Chen pretended to be stunned, "Brother Hou, you, what do you mean?"

The corners of Hou Xu's mouth arced, and the aura on his body rose sharply, far exceeding the Soul Release Realm in an instant, and Gu Chen and Er Niu were also very cooperative, pretending to be frightened, and kept retreating.

Even Gu Chen trembled, "You, are you lying to us?"

Hou Xu said hideously, "Hey, two brain-dead, you are really the most idiot I have ever seen, I didn't expect to be deceived by me so easily." ”

"Money! We give you everything, don't hurt us. ”

"Yes, since you left the city with me, everything on you, including the lives of the two of you, has been all mine, what else do you have to talk about? Don't worry, it won't make you feel miserable. ”

After saying that, Hou Xu's face turned hideous again, and then an afterimage rushed down.

A dark blue dagger suddenly appeared in front of Gu Chen's eyebrows, Gu Chen looked frightened, grabbed it, grabbed it directly, and kept saying in his mouth, "Let us go, we don't want to die." ”

At this moment, Hou Xu was holding the dagger, his face turned red, because he found that the dagger held in Gu Chen's palm seemed to be welded at the moment, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake it in the slightest, but Gu Chen's appearance was as if he didn't use his strength, but he had exhausted all his strength!

Wrong!

Suddenly feeling that something was wrong, Hou Xu violently spread the dagger and burst out of ten zhang away, he looked at Gu Chen and Er Niu in disbelief, and said in panic in his eyes, "You, who are you?"

The style of painting has changed abruptly, Gu Chen is no longer honest and honest, and a hideous evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth; "Brother Hou, is your acting skills okay?"

Rumble!

As he spoke, the breath on Gu Chen's body was like a volcanic eruption rising into the sky, and Hou Xu, who was shocked, almost burst out of his eyes.

Looking at the silver-haired Gu Chen, Hou Xu said in a trembling voice as if he had seen a ghost, "Transform, transform into a god realm......." ”

Gu Chen smiled lightly, he slowly played with the blue dagger in his hand, and said, "The best spiritual weapon can also be exchanged for a lot of money, I will accept it." ”

Swish!

An afterimage, Hou Xu was like a fresh wind, wanting to break out of the cave, suddenly, Gu Chen's figure disappeared violently, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Hou Xu.

One zhang apart, Gu Chen's empty palms were opposite, Hou Xu stopped violently, he was just about to change direction, suddenly, the action became extremely heavy, and he was shocked to find that he was wrapped in an extremely cold aura, and outside his body, a thick layer of ice formed out, and only his head could still turn.

Hou Xu's eyes were full of horror, he couldn't believe it, how could Gu Chen exert this kind of perverted supernatural power, and with a palm in the air, he actually froze himself, this is the power of the Transformation God Realm?

However, no one gave him an answer, Hou Xu was still in shock, and suddenly found that someone was holding his head from behind, and when he wanted to fight back, it was too late, and a powerful force rushed directly into his soul sea, forcibly grabbed his soul power, and pulled outward!

Hou Xu held his breath and wanted to persevere, but compared to this force, he only lasted less than three breaths before his soul was forcefully pulled out and plunged into eternal darkness.

Erniu seemed to have eaten a full meal, snorted, and began to refine on his knees, but Gu Chen seemed very bored, and continued to freeze Hou Xu's body, completely freezing it.
