Chapter 919: Master of the Gate
In the narrow cave, on the stone walls of the cave, at intervals, a brazier is embedded for illumination.
I just don't know what kind of oil is added to this brazier, the fire is very strong, and there is a refreshing fragrance in the process of burning, and there is no smell of oil smoke burning in the fire.
Watching Xun Kaihe push open a stone door, it seemed heavy, but Xun Kaihe didn't seem to have any effort, when the stone door was pushed, it seemed that he could hear the sound of the bearing turning.
Behind the stone gate, the light was a little dim.
A skylight opened above the cave, and a beam of light, falling vertically from above, happened to fall on the old man sitting cross-legged on the futon.
The old man, now with his back to them, was wearing a wide gray-white robe with a crown of crane hair.
Gu Yuan looked at the old man sitting on the ground, turned his face and looked at Luo Tianyao, who did not speak, and his face was serious.
At this moment, the crane-haired old man slowly spoke, his voice deep and deep.
"Open the river, you can step down."
"Yes, Master!" Xun Kaihe glanced at Gu Yuan and Luo Tianyao, and laughed, "I'll wait for you outside." ”
After saying that, he withdrew first.
Luo Tianyao looked at the surrounding environment and was cautious.
Not to mention Luo Tianzhen, even Gu Yuan has never dispelled their doubts about the South Pole Gate, they need the information transmitted by Wang Lei, but they will not believe what Wang Lei said.
In such an environment, they naturally have to be cautious to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
And the old man, at this moment, had slowly moved around, his face still looked a little pale, but his eyes were very bright, and when he looked at Gu Yuan and Luo Tianyao, his expression was soft.
When he looked at Gu Yuan, he chuckled lightly and asked, "Xiaoyou, the breath on your body is very familiar to me, it was you who visited last night, right?" ”
Gu Yuan was slightly stunned, a little surprised.
Last night, after he found out that there was a formation here that could not be snooped on, he hurriedly left, just for fear of startling the snake, but he didn't expect that he would still be discovered.
In this way, he had some understanding, no wonder the Antarctic Gate master, who was still recuperating from his injuries, suddenly wanted to see them.
Now Gu Yuan's expression was also a little embarrassed.
He hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "I couldn't sleep last night, so I wanted to visit the South Pole Gate, and I was worried about disturbing you, so I used some small means. ”
The master of the South Pole Gate just laughed.
Gu Yuan's reason sounded a bit far-fetched, but he didn't poke it, but looked at Luo Tianjiao again.
The blood and qi in Luo Tianzhen's body have reached the point where he can't hide it, not to mention that the master of the South Pole Gate himself thinks that he is an A-level martial artist.
In addition, Luo Tianzhen was in the Demon Slaying Army in the early years, and his body was contaminated with a strong murderous aura.
The master of the South Pole Gate knew very well in his heart that Luo Tianzhen's identity must not be simple, but after hesitating, he still chose not to ask.
Since the other party didn't choose to be open and honest at the beginning, he wanted to hide some information, even if the old master had already guessed in his heart, he didn't want to verify the answer.
Gu Yuan's snooping last night let him know that the purpose of the Demon Suppression Division coming to the Antarctic Gate was not simple, it was very likely that he wanted to investigate something, at the very least, there had been a misunderstanding.
So, he looked at Luo Tianyao and Gu Yuan in front of him, and said with a serious expression: "If the two of you have any misunderstanding about the South Pole Gate, you can talk about it openly and honestly now. ”
Luo Tianzhen laughed and sat on the ground.
"The master of the guard gate is serious, there is no misunderstanding, before, we also heard some information from the disciples of the Antarctic Gate, and we really have to thank the master of the guard gate for being willing to help kill the A-class monster."
It was only at this time that Gu Yuan knew that the Antarctic Gate master in front of him was surnamed Wei.
Luo Tianzhen knew, but he was not surprised, since he was in charge of investigating the South Pole Gate, he must have a certain understanding of the South Pole Gate.
Gu Yuan also sat on the ground in the same way as Luo Tianshao, looking at the old master in front of him.
Observing the face of the guard master, Gu Yuan could see that there were still dark wounds on the other party's body that had not yet healed, if what Wang Lei said before was true, then the battle between the guard master and the A-level monster had indeed paid a great price.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency, what do you call it?" The master of the guard looked at Luo Tianzhen and asked.
"The contemptible surname is Luo."
The master of the guard nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "Lord Luo is serious, my generation of monks, since they have already sensed the existence of demons, they naturally want to kill demons and eliminate demons." ”
When the Lord of the Gate spoke, his tone was sincere.
Looking at the Guardian Lord's harmonious appearance, Luo Tianzhen suddenly asked: "The Antarctic Gate is also in Guicheng, not far from Ju County, has the Guardian Master dealt with the Demon Division of Ju County on weekdays?" ”
Gu Yuan glanced at Luo Tianzhen in surprise, he didn't expect the other party to be so direct.
Thinking about it, it's not easy to see the master of the gate, and what is naturally there has to be said.
As for whether what the other party said is true or false, that is a test of their ability to discern.
And when the master of the gate heard Luo Tianyao's question, he seemed to realize something, and asked, "What has Lord Luo already heard?" ”
Luo Tianzhen smiled: "It's just curious." ”
The master of the gate sighed and said bluntly: "Presumably, the disciples in my sect have already said something that should not be said, originally, as a sect of the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land, my Antarctic Gate should not be mixed with these, but now, I can understand that if I just keep my mouth shut, it will only make the Antarctic Gate fall into the whirlpool!" ”
At this moment, the gaze of the guardian master also became fierce.
"Lord Luo came to the Antarctic Gate this time, he must have heard some rumors, right? The Antarctic Gate has been rooted in your city for hundreds of years, and it will never do anything to endanger the ordinary people of the Great Xia Kingdom! This is my attitude at the Antarctic Gate! ”
The sudden statement of the master of the guard gate also made Luo Tianzhen a little unable to catch it.
Gu Yuan coughed lightly and said, "Don't worry about the master of the gate, if we are really indiscriminate, we won't come to the Antarctic Gate to investigate, yes, it's not a secret, we did hear some bad news, but isn't our arrival just to return the innocence of the Antarctic Gate?" ”
Luo Tianzhen glanced at Gu Yuan, quite surprised.
I didn't expect this kid to be so good at talking at such a young age.
The master of the gate was also stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face again.
Before, although he didn't say it, he still had some complaints in his heart about Gu Yuan and Luo Tiansha, the two uninvited guests.
But now, Gu Yuan's words made him open his heart.
Indeed, if the Demon Suppression Division was really unreasonable, it would have been possible to do it directly against them, but the Demon Suppression Division did not do this, but instead sent someone over to investigate, which was also very reasonable.
When Gu Yuan and Luo Tianzhen were talking to the master of the guard, Kong Baihe also encountered some problems.
