Chapter 176: Zhige City
Suddenly thinking of this, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask: "I really didn't see it, Lao Xiong, your relationship with Mu Zhengtian is not ordinary, why haven't I heard you say it before?"
Suddenly asked by Gu Chen about this topic, Xiong Ba was stunned, and then stopped speaking, just carefully wiped the wine jar in front of him.
Seeing this, Gu Chen was even more puzzled, when was a rough bear bully so dull, is there a hidden meaning in this?
Gu Chen stepped forward in two steps, he patted Xiong Ba's shoulder, and said, "Old Xiong, what's wrong?"
Xiong Ba was silent for a while, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry Mu Zhengtian. ”
Gu Chen's face was stunned, "What the hell is going on?"
Xiong Ba didn't answer, but took out two jugs of wine, handed Gu Chen a jug, and left the cave directly.
......
On the back cliff of Cuiyun Mountain, Xiong Ba and Gu Chen sat on a piece of bluestone, and after a long silence, Xiong Ba spoke, "If I hadn't been negligent back then, Xiao Mu might not have died." ”
Gu Chen's expression was stunned: "Who is Xiao Mu?"
"That's it...... Mu Zhengtian's eldest daughter. ”
“......。 ”
Gu Chen was speechless for a moment, he looked at Xiong Ba quietly, not knowing what to say.
Xiong Ba took a sip of wine and continued, "Xiao Mu is a very talented girl, and she is Mu Zhengtian's favorite child, but because Mu Zhengtian is busy with affairs, he can't always teach Xiao Mu to cultivate, in order not to waste Xiao Mu's talent, the only place he can trust is our Cuiyun Mountain." ”
Xiong Ba was silent for a while, and continued, "You may have heard of Xiao Mu's death, but you definitely don't know that she actually grew up in Cuiyun Mountain, so to speak, we grew up watching, and the person she liked to follow the most at that time was me, so most of her cultivation was guided by me. ”
"And then?" Gu Chen quietly looked into the distance.
And then ...... , Because she grew up in Cuiyun Mountain, Xiao Mu has only heard a lot about the danger of the outside world, and she doesn't know how powerful the Xuanyin Sect is, but she always has to go out, and she can't always be trapped in Cuiyun Mountain. ”
"So, for a while, she loved to go out very much, and during this period, she was besieged by the Xuanyin Sect several times, until after a special danger, I began to restrict her from going out, and then she quarreled with me, I beat her, and said, if she dares to go out again, don't come back, in fact, I am for her good, because I have a hunch that if the Xuanyin Sect besieges her again, it will not be so simple, but who would have thought ....... ”
"She's out again?" said Gu Chen.
Xiong Ba nodded, "It's this time, she never came back after she went out, but she actually had a chance to come back, but my words, she didn't flee to Cuiyun Mountain, but fled to the opposite direction of Cuiyun Mountain, and the result was ......." ”
Looking at the lost expression on Xiong Ba's face, Gu Chen didn't know how to speak, but he knew that Xiong Ba couldn't complain about this matter, but Xiong Ba didn't think so, and it was useless for him to be relieved, so he simply kept silent.
Xiong Ba raised his head, waited until there was no more wine in the wine jug, and threw it directly off the cliff; "You know? Actually, that jar of wine was originally prepared for Xiao Mu, and it was to be opened on the day of her wedding, but now it seems that it can only be given to Mu Chun'er." ”
After saying this, Xiong Ba turned around and left, leaving Gu Chen alone to sit in the sunset.
Pouring himself a drink, Gu Chen quietly looked at the sunset that was gradually swallowed by the mountains, and his heart was infinitely emotional.
If Xiong Ba hadn't said it himself, who would have imagined that under his rough appearance, there was such a delicate emotion.
In fact, why not?
In the eyes of ordinary people, he has an identity and strength that many people can't reach in a lifetime at a young age, he is the pride of the sky in the eyes of ordinary people, and the dragon and phoenix in the eyes of ordinary people, but only he knows what the real situation is.
Like ordinary people, he also has joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and under his status of being looked up to, he is supported by more than 100 enemies who have destroyed the door, and he has similar emotions to Xiongba, and he will blame himself from time to time in his heart.
What he blamed himself for was that if he could take Bai Su back to the Dragon and Tiger Army camp in time, maybe she wouldn't have been taken away by the Heavenly Ghost Grandma, and he wouldn't have worried about what happened to her now.
"Nine times out of ten, things that are unsatisfactory in life, my father used to say this sentence on his lips, but now that I think about it, I may understand what he meant. ”
Shaking the dry flask, Gu Chen laughed to himself, then got up and left the place.
......
Cuiyun Mountain, there are very few people who know the real location, not to mention that there is a large array of mountain protection, so you can be completely assured in terms of security.
Although there is still a day before Wu Ci and Mu Chun'er get married, Gu Chen, Xiong Ba and the others, after all, are not really guests, but to ensure the safety of the day of marriage, so they can't help but prepare in advance.
However, although all the dragon envoys of Cuiyun Mountain were dispatched, there were only four people, and as for the battle sword, Ruolan didn't know where it went.
The sick ghost led the way, Ruolan followed, and Gu Chen sat on Xiongba's huge shield at the end, still not exposing his phoenix feathers.
Looking at the lightning regression of the scenery under his feet, Gu Chen said, "Old Xiong, you said that Mu Zhengtian married his daughter, did he send Mu Chun'er to the Spirit Sword Gate, or let Wu Ci join the Dragon and Tiger Army?"
In fact, Gu Chen thought about this question very early, if it was according to common sense, since he was marrying his daughter, he would naturally have to go to the man's side, but here in Mu Zhengtian, Gu Chen always felt that the possibility of Wu Ci being rich was higher.
Like Gu Chen's thoughts, Xiong Ba thought for a moment and said, "It should be Wu Ci who joined the Dragon and Tiger Army." ”
"If I'm not mistaken, Wu Ci seems to have a dragon scale sword, which is the treasure of the Spirit Sword Gate. ”
"Hey, what is this. Xiong Ba disagreed, "The Dragon Scale Sword of the Spirit Sword Gate may be a good weapon, but his opponent is Mu Zhengtian, Mu Zhengtian is in charge of half of the Qingfeng Mansion, just take out something, it is enough for a few Dragon Scale Sword, if Mu Zhengtian is willing, the Spirit Sword Gate can become one of the garrisons of the Dragon and Tiger Army, dare not be willing to let go?"
Gu Chen innocently slapped his shoulders;" I didn't ask. ”
What does it mean to be wealthy?
A dignified sect, if you say that you will be adopted, you will be adopted!
The whistling wind blew in his ears, and gradually, the time was close to noon, and at this time Gu Chen realized that the place they went to was not in the direction of Crouching Tiger Mountain.
Xiong Ba pointed forward and said, "Zhige City, the safest city in Qingfeng Mansion, there is no one, all fights are prohibited in the city, and troublemakers can be killed directly." ”
Gu Chen nodded thoughtfully, "This is specially built by Mu Zhengtian for the Mu family?"
Xiong Ba shook his head, "It's not just the Mu family, many rich and powerful families have family heirs living in it, but it's like a big cage there, and it's not free at all. ”
Gu Chen recalled Mu Lingling's performance when he went to Fengyang City, and couldn't help but shake his head, indeed, the big cage is not an exaggeration at all, this is a cage, if there is really no way, who will live here? Although the protection is indeed tight, it is based on pathetic security.
If the people of Zhige City come out and ensure that their safety will not be invaded by outsiders, who will live here? Who can not yearn for the colorful world outside?
Suddenly, the sick ghost who was leading the way in front of him slowed down suddenly.
Gu Chen looked at it, in the distant sky, there was a sign of a city on the horizon, it should be Zhige City, but it was still far away, so he couldn't help but wonder a little, why did it stop suddenly?
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that the sick ghost was suspended in mid-air, without the slightest intention of moving forward, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Near Zhige City, flights are prohibited. "The bear is domineering.
"Forbidden flight?is so far away?" Gu Chen twitched the corners of his mouth fiercely, from here to Zhige City, just by visual inspection, there are at least hundreds of miles, and it is too sensitive to start the forbidden air at such a distance? It seems that this so-called cage is really not a simple talk.
The sick ghost turned to look at the three of Gu Chen, and said lightly, "Let's go down first, it is estimated that the forbidden space in Zhige City will be canceled tomorrow, don't let us go alone." ”
At a distance of hundreds of miles, Gu Chen and the others naturally didn't look at it, since the sick ghosts had already said so, a few people could only walk.
A smooth marble floor, straight to Zhige City hundreds of miles away, the handwriting is so big, it is staggering, and on both sides of this road, you can see the dragon and tiger guards who are patrolling from time to time, and the range of Zhige City is hundreds of miles, Gu Chen's visual inspection, there are at least nearly five thousand dragon and tiger guards on guard.
"Sure enough, there is no one, there are about 5,000 dragon and tiger guards who protect the safety of Zhige City all year round, this kind of protection, there will definitely be no second one. ”
"About five thousand?" Xiong Ba shook his head with a sneer, "Zhige City is so big, what protection can five thousand dragon and tiger guards have?"
Gu Chen's face was surprised, could it be .......
Xiong Ba mysteriously stretched out two fingers and said, "About five thousand, just what you see, and in Zhige City, there are still 20,000 dragon and tiger guards stationed all year round, that is the real power to protect Zhige City, if there are only these five thousand dragon and tiger guards, Zhige City would not know how many times it has been destroyed." ”
"It's actually 30,000. ”
Suddenly, Ruolan, who hadn't said a word along the way, spoke, "The last time I came to Zhige City, I paid special attention to it, there are nearly 20,000 Dragon and Tiger Guards on the surface, but there are nearly 10,000 Dragon and Tiger Guards in secret, so the Dragon and Tiger Guards who protect the safety of Zhige City should be 30,000." ”
Thirty thousand?
Gu Chen wrinkled his forehead fiercely, this number has exceeded all the dragon and tiger guards in Fengyang City, but is it a bit of a fuss to protect Zhige City with such a large force?
However, after thinking about it deeply, Gu Chen was relieved, this is not Fengyang City after all, there is a villain at random, that is, there are countless deaths and injuries between the waves, if there are fewer people, maybe something will happen.
