Shen Zhongtang saw that Su Dingqin was so straightforward, and there was an embarrassed look on his face, and after a while, a smile appeared from between his teeth, and he sighed: "It's not a secret, I did think that you stole the Heavenly Devouring Yin Gu before, but I didn't expect that it was indeed a misunderstanding of you, and this time I also let you see the joke, since you have decided to leave, then I won't force you to stay, after this batch of goods is sold, you will come to me again to get the goods, and when the time comes, I will give you a nine-percent discount, which can be regarded as compensation for you." ”

"Master Shen doesn't have to be polite, although we didn't steal the Yin Gu this day, but this happened after we entered the Gu Gate, it will inevitably make you suspicious, we will continue to cooperate in the future, you will be able to see our person clearly after a long time, it's not early now, let's go back first, and in the future, we will come to trouble Master Shen Sect by need, and say goodbye!" After Su Dingqin finished speaking, he said goodbye to Shen Zhongtang, and then a few of us walked to the stone room, took the goods, and left the Gu Gate.

At this time, it was already dusk and evening, the sky was full of clouds in the distance, the tired birds returned to the forest, looking at the mountain scenery in front of me, my heart was relieved, although we have not yet explored the secrets of the human skin map and the clues of the Xuanling Green Scale Gu, but things have been carried out according to plan, as long as there are no accidents, we will definitely take the Gu Gate within three or five days.

"Brother Su, it's about to get dark now, where are we going?" Ning Nanxi looked at Su Dingqin and asked.

"According to Liu Yutian, the place where the three hall masters are located is not close to the Gu Gate, not to mention dozens of kilometers, if you rush to the place where Duan Yunfei is now, I'm afraid it's too late, the mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk, and it is even more dangerous after dark, in my opinion, let's find a sheltered place to rest for the night tonight, and then go to Duan Yunfei tomorrow morning." Su Dingqin said in a deep voice.

After making up our minds, we first walked towards Duan Yunfei's place, looking for shelter while walking, and after walking for about half an hour, we found that there was a cave under the stone wall on the side of the road, although the cave was not deep but enough to accommodate a few of us, and now that it was dark, we didn't know if we could find a more suitable shelter if we could find a more suitable shelter if we walked forward, so we simply stopped and went into the cave, planning to rest here for one night, and wait for tomorrow morning before moving.

After putting down the luggage, Su Dingqin and I went to the neighborhood to pick up some dry firewood, and after returning to the cave, we lit a bonfire, which instantly warmed up the originally cold and damp cave, and at the same time dispelled the chill around us.

"Brother Su, if we successfully kill Shen Zhongtang, do you really want to help Liu Yutian become the master of the Gu Gate? Do you think he can do it with his ability, once a person has power and greed, he will be even better, how can you guarantee that he will not become the next Shen Zhongtang? I looked at Su Dingqin, who was roasting the fire, and asked.

Su Dingqin looked up at me when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth opened slightly: "Helping Liu Yutian to ascend to the throne is just a delaying tactic, if not, how can Liu Yutian cooperate with us, according to my observation, Liu Yutian is ambitious, and extremely insidious and fierce, if I guessed correctly, he would have already had the intention of usurping the throne, the reason why he didn't do it was because his strength was not as good as Shen Zhongtang, but this does not mean that he is not as ruthless as Shen Zhongtang, often this kind of person is the most feared, You should have heard the story of King Yue Gou Jian's lying down and tasting courage, Gou Jian endured humiliation for ten years just to take revenge, this kind of person is the most dangerous, so even if we still can't let Liu Yutian take over the Gu Gate after eliminating Shen Zhongtang, maybe the Gu Gate will get worse in his hands, and then we must choose a relatively more upright person to be the master of the Gu Gate. ”

"Pick someone else? Why don't you just destroy the Gu Gate, why do you have to choose someone to take charge again? Li Hai asked puzzled.

Hearing this, Su Dingqin smiled bitterly, and said that wanting to destroy a sect is not as simple as playing a family, not to mention how long the history of the Gu Sect is, just take the current number of Gu Sect disciples to completely eliminate it.

At present, it is known that there are thousands of Gu Sect disciples, this is only the general rudder, and there must be hundreds of disciples under the other four hall masters, and besides, in addition to Xiangxi Miaojiang, other provinces and cities also have Gu Sect rudders, so it is impossible to completely eliminate Gu Sect.

Moreover, the Gu Sect belongs to the Outer Eight Elements, and these eight sects have been established for thousands of years, although there are few intersections on weekdays, but once the Gu Sect is destroyed, the other sects will definitely work together to avenge it.

Because they will feel that the next one is themselves, they will definitely unite with the outside world, which is definitely not a good thing, so the Gu Gate cannot be destroyed, and they can only gradually shrink their power.

After Su Dingqin finished speaking, he glanced at the outside of the cave, and said, "It's not early now, let's rest early, and we will continue to rush tomorrow." ”

After Su Dingqin finished speaking, he lay down on the hay to rest, and after a few of us chatted for a while, we also lay down to sleep, and soon there was a snoring sound in the cave, accompanied by the clicking and popping sound of burning firewood.

I didn't know how long I slept, I was suddenly woken up by a burst of urine, I woke up and opened my eyes, at this time the bonfire had burned out, only the remaining little spark, I took out the lighter from my pocket and re-lit the bonfire, turned my head to look through the firelight, at this time Su Dingqin and others were sleeping peacefully, I didn't disturb them when I saw that everyone was still asleep, I got up cautiously and walked towards the direction of the dense forest not far away, after entering the dense forest, I unbuttoned my pants and opened the gate to release water, Just as I was about to put on my pants and turn to leave, suddenly there was a cry in the middle of the forest, and the cry was mournful and ethereal, and it sounded very permeating.

When I heard this voice, I was surprised, how could there be crying in this place, could it be that someone was lost in the forest?

Just when I was in doubt, the cry became clearer and clearer, seeing this, I hurriedly put on my pants and walked in the direction of the cry, because it was extremely dark in the dense forest, I took out my mobile phone from my pocket to illuminate, all the way forward, about twenty or thirty meters later, I saw that there seemed to be a figure in front of me in the dense forest, through the light to look at, standing not far away seems to be a woman, she is wearing a colorful cotton jacket, is standing with her back to me, behind her there are two thick braids, looks like she is twenty or thirty years old.

At this time, the mournful cry was coming from the direction where the woman was standing, and when I saw this, I stepped forward and asked tentatively: "Sister, what are you crying here alone in the middle of the night, what happened, are you lost in this forest?" ”

After hearing my voice, the woman in the flower jacket stopped crying, but she did not turn around, nor did she answer my question, I saw that she was silent, stepped forward and continued to ask: "Sister, what is wrong with you, are you lost, where does your family live, is there anyone else in the family besides you?" ”

When I finished asking this sentence, the woman's body suddenly trembled, and then she turned around slowly, and when I saw the woman's face clearly by the light, I suddenly gasped, the woman's face was pale, as if she had been smeared with a layer of white face, her eyes were dark blue, and the whole person did not have the slightest breath of a living person, and it looked very strange and penetrating.

The flower jacket she was wearing in front of her had been torn apart, as if it had been torn apart by something, and she was holding a small futon in her arms, which I didn't know what it was.

Seeing that the woman's appearance was so weird, I subconsciously took two steps back, and then looked at the woman and continued to ask, "Sister, are you lost?" ”

"I'm not lost, little brother, I want to ask you something, can you help me?" The woman's breath was weak when she spoke, and her voice was even more ethereal, as if the voice was coming from all directions.

"What can I help you, if I can help." I looked at the woman with a firm expression.

When the woman saw that I agreed, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she opened the small futon she was holding in her arms, and then leaned in front of me and asked, "Little brother, do you think my son can still live?" ”

When I heard this, I looked down, and suddenly my head exploded, and what the woman was holding in her arms turned out to be a dead child!

The child looked to be only a few months old, his eyes were closed, his exposed face had long since ulcerated, and there were patches of bruises on his forehead, and he had been dead for a long time at first glance.

Now this woman asks me if her son is still alive, could it be that this woman is a madman, or how could she not know that her son is dead?

"Do you think he'll survive?" The woman asked again, and the dead child in her arms kept pushing in front of me.

"Eldest sister, your son is dead, please mourn and change, this person can't be resurrected after death, you still have to look at the point, in my opinion, you should bury him earlier, so that he can be buried in the ground." I said boldly as I looked at the woman in front of me.

"Dead? Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could my son die! Say he can live, say he can live! The woman shouted at me like crazy, and her eyes showed endless anger.

"Eldest sister, your son is indeed dead, don't toss him, where is your home, your family must be worried about you after you have been out for so long, in my opinion, you should go back quickly." I looked at the woman and persuaded.

"Hmph, my family has long ignored me, otherwise I wouldn't have ended up like this, since you said that my son is dead, well, I want you to pay for my son's life now!" As soon as the woman's voice fell, she suddenly threw out the futon in her hand, and then stretched out her hands and grabbed me by the neck.

The moment the woman's palm touched my neck, I felt a biting chill hit me, as if two pieces of ice were on my neck.

"Let go, let go!" I struggled and shouted to let go, but the woman didn't listen to me at all, and still grabbed my neck with her hands.

After a few seconds I began to notice that something was wrong with this woman, her eyes turned scarlet, and there was a white mist all over her, and I realized that this woman was not alive at all, she was a dirty thing in the woods!

"Since you said that my son can't live, then don't live either, and when I die, I will let my son occupy your body!" The woman screamed as she grabbed my neck hard.

Since this woman is not alive at all, even if I ask her to let go, it will definitely be useless, just at this moment I directly raised my leg and knee, and slammed into the woman's abdomen, this time the momentum sank hard, the woman took a few steps back in pain, and I had a chance to breathe.
