Chapter 231: Night Visit
Gu Chen's impression was that the demon clan was a group of unorganized and disciplined scattered sand, and it was not too difficult to deal with, but now he realized that the original demon clan was not as simple as he thought, and he needed to make up for the current situation of the demon clan.
After the frog spirit left, Gu Chen took off his shirt, and his entire left arm had completely turned purple and black, although he sealed the scorpion venom, but if he didn't force it out, his left arm would probably be scrapped.
Gu Chen grabbed it with his right hand, and the knife appeared in his palm, starting from his left arm and shoulder, he cut a deep wound until his wrist.
The black blood flowed like ink, and the ground was a large patch in an instant, and his left arm no longer seemed so swollen, and after a while, until there was no more blood flowing out of his left arm, he crossed his knees.
The moment he was stabbed by the scorpion's tail, Gu Chen blocked all the circulation of his left arm in time, so that the venom did not spread, and the knife he just now also forced out most of the scorpion venom, although there are still remnants of scorpion venom now, but it can no longer pose a threat to him.
Gu Chen's vitality was running, constantly washing his left arm, and drops of black blood continued to flow .......
Time passed little by little, I don't know how long it was, the blood forced out of Gu Chen's wound began to turn red, and at this time, he stopped.
Although he shed a lot of blood, Gu Chen's breath was only a little weak, and it was fine, and the wound on his left arm had begun to recover, he put on his clothes again, and then came to the seat above the cave, the huge cave was like a big hall, after Gu Chen sat down, he first swallowed ten flower dew pills, and then pinched his chin and pondered.
From the Spider King, he learned that the Demon Alliance Conference was about to begin, although it was the Demon Alliance Conference, but it was related to the safety of human beings.
There is no doubt that the Spider King is a warlike person, and she wants to capture the Evergreen Mansion, but it seems that there are not many demon kings who support her, so they let them find a way to get more support from the demon king.
Gu Chen can't do anything rashly now, because he doesn't know the situation of the demon clan yet, so he asked the frog spirit to find a demon cultivator who is familiar with the situation to make up for this knowledge, and he has to wait until he understands the situation of the demon clan before he can take action.
......
The frog spirit was very fast, coming back before the sun set, and brought a one-foot-long monkey with him, and Gu Chen saw them as soon as he walked out of the cave.
The frog spirit hurriedly came to Gu Chen's face, "Boss, the person you are looking for has been brought, this long-tailed monkey said that he was with the toad spirit at the beginning, and he knows everything. ”
Gu Chen glanced at the long-tailed monkey squatting on the frog spirit's shoulder, the primary transformation realm was already very rare, and said, "You said that you followed the toad spirit in the first place?" ”
"My lord, Lord Toad is dead, what evidence is there, but if it weren't for Lord Toad, it would be impossible for the small one to have the current cultivation, listen to this Lord said, you want to avenge Lord Toad, I took the initiative to send it to the door. ”
"Delivered to the door?"
The long-tailed monkey's word made Gu Chen laugh, he glanced at the frog spirit, and said, "Little frog, you step back first, I want to talk to it alone." ”
"Okay boss, you can call me anytime you have anything. ”
After the frog spirit left, Gu Chen returned to the cave with the long-tailed monkey.
The long-tailed monkey couldn't sit still, he jumped up and down for a while, and said, "My lord, do you really want to help Lord Toad take revenge?"
Gu Chen thought for a moment, then nodded, "Naturally, it's true, it's just that there is no clue." ”
"I know, I know it all. The long-tailed monkey jumped on the table and said, "My lord, I actually saw everything that happened that night. ”
"You saw them all?" Gu Chen's eyes narrowed.
"That's right. "I happened to be on a nearby mountain when it happened that night, and I saw them all, and you may not believe it when you say it, but it was my own people." ”
It's simple!
Before Gu Chen could ask much, the long-tailed monkey couldn't control himself, he began to believe what it said, it was with the help of the toad essence that there was the current change, otherwise, when the cultivation reached this level, the mind would become more far-sighted, like pulling seedlings to help grow, and the intelligence did not keep up.
Gu Chen's face was not surprised, and he smiled, "You said that your own people did it, but you have to tell me what happened, otherwise, how can I judge the truth or falsehood?"
"Well, okay. The long-tailed monkey nodded and said, "Actually, it was the poisonous scorpion that conspired against Lord Toad that night. ”
"Scorpions?"
"That's right, the poisonous scorpion began to come to find Lord Toad, and the two chatted at the entrance of this cave, I didn't hear anything talking, and then, the poisonous scorpion suddenly stabbed Lord Toad with its tail, and ran away, and Lord Toad chased after him, and as a result, a human with a sword came, killed Lord Toad at once, and took away his Neidan. ”
"And then?"
"Well...... The human and the scorpion were in the same group, and I saw the two of them talk for a while, and then the human flew away, and finally the scorpion put away the body of Lord Toad. ”
Gu Chen frowned his forehead solemnly, he couldn't understand why the poisonous scorpion was targeting toads?
Also, the real person in charge behind the scenes is definitely not a poisonous scorpion, it should be the Spider King, although the long-tailed monkey said it simply, but the battle that night was definitely not so simple.
The frog spirit has been investigated before, and there are strong battle fluctuations, which are enough to affect the Spider King, if there is no order from the Spider King, the poisonous scorpion will definitely not sneak attack the toad essence, and it is even more impossible to unite human monks to kill the toad essence, it seems that there is a hidden secret that he does not know.
Gu Chen thought for a while, couldn't understand the reason for this, and continued, "Little monkey, let me ask you, do you know anything about this demon alliance in Qi Xuan City?"
The long-tailed monkey glanced at Gu Chen strangely and said, "Naturally, who doesn't know about the Demon Alliance, don't adults know?"
Gu Chen twisted his fingers, "I know a little, but I don't know very well, in fact, the main purpose of my coming to you today is to ask you about the Demon Alliance." ”
"Huh?" the long-tailed monkey looked disappointed, "It turns out that the adults don't want to avenge the toad?"
"Revenge, of course. Gu Chen said, "However, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win all battles, dealing with poisonous scorpions is not such a simple thing, you can't say kill it, I want to have a general understanding of the demon clan power in Qi Xuancheng, so that it can be more convenient to do it, don't you say?"
The long-tailed monkey's eyes were full of confusion, he didn't understand Gu Chen's meaning too much, and it took so much scruples to kill a poisonous scorpion, but he felt that it was indeed the case;" What the adults said seemed to make sense, although I didn't understand it very well, but what did the adults want to know about the Demon Alliance? If I knew, I would definitely tell you. ”
"Tell me everything you know. ”
"Say it all?"
"That's right. ”
"Well...... All right. The long-tailed monkey only pondered for a moment, and then told his understanding of the so-called Demon Alliance.
The so-called demon alliance is a force composed of all the demon cultivators in Qi Xuancheng, as the saying goes, there are no rules, there is no circle, this sentence also applies to the demon cultivators, if the demon cultivators of Qi Xuancheng are a plate of loose sand without rules, then there is only one result, either I kill you, or you kill me, let alone talk about unanimity.
Qi Xuancheng's demon alliance has ten demon kings, but not only these ten demon kings, in fact, like poisonous scorpions and toad spirits, they are barely to the strength of the demon king, but compared with the spider king, the real combat power is still far behind, so the spider king and the bull king and others are considered to be the ten big demon kings in charge.
The huge Qi Xuan City is controlled by these ten great demon kings, they divide Qi Xuan City, and maintain the general security of Qi Xuan City on weekdays, but more importantly, they do not invade each other.
The Demon League Conference, once every three years, is held for the purpose of nothing more than the division of territory, because every three years, there will definitely be a demon king with a strength similar to a poisonous scorpion, and the demon king of this strength must be resettled, otherwise there will definitely be an incident, so the Demon League Conference is mainly to redivide the territory every three years.
After listening to the long-tailed monkey's narration, Gu Chen walked slowly in the cave, constantly twisting his fingers.
The long-tailed monkey's account was slightly different from what he knew, because he knew that the Demon Alliance Conference was not just about dividing territory, but the long-tailed monkey obviously didn't know more about it.
"My lord, have you figured out how to take revenge?"
Seeing that Gu Chen was silent, the long-tailed monkey couldn't help but ask.
Gu Chen looked at the long-tailed monkey for a while and said, "You go first, I will naturally deal with the matter." ”
"This ....... ”
"Let's go, this is not the place for you. ”
The long-tailed monkey looked at Gu Chen for a while, and finally nodded and left, jumping three times and jumping twice, the figure of the long-tailed monkey disappeared into the night sky, Gu Chen just turned around, and suddenly, he heard a scream outside.
With a cold light in his eyes, Gu Chen rushed out of the cave violently, it was too late!
The long-tailed monkey that was still jumping out of the cave just now was pierced through the head by a spider silk as thin as a hair.
Streams of essence blood flowed from the body of the long-tailed monkey along the spider silk to the depths of the dense forest, and the body of the long-tailed monkey was like a leaky balloon, quickly drying up, and finally only a skin sac remained.
At this time, in the dark forest, a figure walked out, it was the Black Spider King!
With a bewitching smile and scarlet lips, the Black Spider King dragged the long black dress behind him, walked out of the forest step by step, and came to Gu Chen, "What is there to sneak around, if you want to know anything, just ask me." ”
Gu Chen nodded with a smile, "My lord thinks too much, I'm just interested in the cause of death of the previous owner of this cave mansion, and I don't want to follow in his footsteps, and my lord is a little too sensitive, and even kills people." ”
"Kill people?" the Spider King scoffed, "You're really thinking too much, I just want to eat it." ”
The Spider King smirked, staggered by, and dragged the long skirt behind him into the cave, Gu Chen looked at it for a while, and finally followed.
