Chapter 8: Running away
Gu Jiancheng here was worried for a few seconds, and simply didn't care.
The sheriff of a frontier land died, this pot is not big, he can afford it, and he will not have a disturbed conscience, after all, it is a scumbag who died.
He has seen a lot of scumbags like Zhao Sanhu in the past year, and it can be regarded as a characteristic of the lower continent.
In the past year, he has traveled to many places in the lower continent, and in just one year, he has subverted his cognition of the past nineteen years, and met all kinds of people, the most interesting of which is a middle-aged scholar.
During the few days they spent together, the scholar told him a lot of new ideas, saying that the empire was actually a forest, and that the vertical structure of the forest community was strictly followed.
The trees at the highest point grow to shade the sky and shade the ground, and the bushes below can also share some sunlight, and the branches are luxuriant, and the bees and butterflies are constantly coming and going between the flowers and the sea of flowers, only the lowest layer is the place where even the sunlight cannot penetrate the place, where only the moss that is accustomed to the shade and humidity grows freely, and the insects that have adapted to the darkness linger there......
And the lower continent is the lowest layer of the forest of the empire.
He didn't bother with the corpse that had been pierced through the skull at his feet, and walked straight past him, coming out of the basement, the glare of the sun falling into his eyes.
Golas, the Demon King, a strange contract, a miniature version of the ancient snake that suddenly appears, the four gods of the Shroud, and finally the "door" that forces Golas to leave in a hurry.
He needed to find a place to sort it all out.
Including last night's dream.
But before he could do that, he had to leave the town.
As for the Fat Man and his Warlock Ruins, at this moment, they are completely unimportant.
In the distance, the crowd was surrounded by the previous screams, pointing in this direction, but no one dared to step forward.
Gu Jiancheng pondered and walked in the direction of the hotel, ignoring them.
The lower continent has an advantage, the strong are respected, the law of the jungle is vividly interpreted, and there are few deceitful between the big families of the upper continent.
He made his way to the inn without any hindrance and packed his few bags.
Before leaving, he thought about it, and left a letter at the front desk of the hotel, which simply pointed out that the magistrate Zhao Sanhu was a blasphemous person who had something to do......
Outside the town, he found the hidden Blackstone SUV and prepared to drive away.
Cheap blackstone, cheap steel, so that the technology tree of the lower continent is still stuck in a few hundred years ago, and the first generation of machines fueled by blackstone is still active on the front line.
Before leaving, he glanced at the time.
Seven July 17, 7862, at nine o'clock in the morning.
This is a time when gods and spirits live in symbiosis.
The empire he is in is the Dayao Empire under the control of the Ji clan, and the empire has been founded for thousands of years and is based on the [Wild Land].
For as long as he can remember, Gu Jiancheng has been by Ji Shi's side.
My father has been on the front line of the Void Realm since he was born, and he has only come back in a hurry once in these years.
When he was six years old, he was stuffed into a weak water training camp by Ji Shi.
This training camp organized by the Empire has brought together a large number of outstanding children to train the next generation for the Empire.
He spent his childhood and youth there, and for ten years, he was built into a qualified warrior, and then spent three years in the Imperial Capital Academy, and was finally driven out of the Imperial Capital by Ji Shi.
The fat man Zhao Qianjun I saw yesterday was his comrade.
It is said that they are comrades, classmates, but also opponents and enemies.
Life in the training camp is not good, the instructors are all ruthless and crazy people who came down from the battlefield, and the training camp has a corresponding death target every year.
The relationship between these comrades is also more complicated, you can refer to the relationship between him and the fat man, and there has been no shortage of grievances and frictions in the past ten years.
When there is no common goal, they are each other's "troubles", and everyone has long been familiar with things like pulling back legs and selling teammates, and it is the truest portrayal of not being able to see brothers......
Just when he was slightly distracted, a familiar shouting came from behind.
"The surname is Gu! You don't take me with you when you run away, right?! Have you forgotten that Lao Tzu saved your life on the battlefield back then? ”
He followed the prestige, only to see the dust at the entrance of the town.
The fat man rushed to Gu Jiancheng like a grinder, scolding and scolding all the way, the scene was quite spectacular, and even shocking.
After all, when a creature of equal height and width, close to a sphere, rolls in, it will inevitably give people a shocking feeling of landslide or avalanche.
The fat man didn't say a word, threw the package into the back seat, and then squeezed Gu Jiancheng into the passenger seat, adjusted the seat distance, and reluctantly stuffed himself into the driver's seat.
"Damn, that's bad luck!"
"The surname is Gu, this group of demons and monsters in the Sacrament Department can't tell the truth, let's run away first, listen to me, let's go directly to the place of convergence and enter the spirit world, I'll see how they follow!"
"What? Will Lao Tzu sell you? I'm bah, you ask Zhao Tianshui about this! ”
……
Half an hour ago.
Zhao Qianjun was overjoyed, feeling that the exploration of the ruins was stable!
Gu Yin is mostly a warlock path, and Gu Jiancheng's third-order chaotic realm is not to mention going sideways in it, and it is also a big kill!
The jade pendant on his waist was slightly hot, Zhao Qianjun's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly rushed into the house, took out a black metal ball from the package, and pressed the switch in the center.
A virtual starlight projection instantly unfolds in the room.
The woman wearing strange armor, the horizontal knife immediately sat in the first place in the hall, although it was a posture of the country, but the phoenix eyes were as narrow as a knife, and the arrogant arrogance was half hidden in the cold light.
Looking at the heavy ink armor, Zhao Qianjun's face changed greatly, and he lost his voice: "Zhao ...... Sister, my own sister, you have successfully inherited the family's blood and ink armor?! ”
The woman's eyes swept across the fat man's body, and she said in a flat tone: "Qianjun, kneel, sister, please ask you for something." ”
Her voice was faintly hoarse in the cold, like a refreshing cool breeze in a humid and sultry day, indescribable.
"Zhao Tianshui! Don't go too far! Everyone is a peer! The fat man was annoyed and angry, and knelt down very simply, "You have a fart to let go!" ”
The eldest daughter of the contemporary Tianshui Zhao family, Zhao Tianshui instructed: "In a short time, the communication between the imperial capital and the outside world will be temporarily cut off, you will find Ah Cheng on my behalf and protect him well." ”
Zhao Qianjun's expression was shocked: "Cut off the communication between the imperial capital and the outside world?!" Who has this bear-hearted leopard gall?! If this is a wartime ......"
If this is wartime, it will not be a disaster to destroy the country!
In his opinion, this move is no different from treason!
He suddenly had a thrill, and almost jumped up, his face trembled, and his voice twisted:
"Is it Heath Arthur? They did not hesitate to start a full-scale civil war, but also to suppress Hiss to return to the imperial capital and prevent him from entering the sacramental ministry? Are those guys crazy! He's a member of the stars! ”
He had guessed that Hiss's presence would cause a reactive reaction from all sides, but he didn't expect it to be so violent!
"What about the Stars? Back then, the royal family Taizu broke through the [Misty Sea] and came to this continent, and fought a hundred and ten battles before he could stand firm.
Some people believe in the stars, but naturally some people can't see the glory of the stars. ”
Zhao Tianshui is not in a hurry,
"This time for the royal turmoil, the problem has been dormant for a long time, and it coincides with the favor of the stars of Heath, so Master Ji pushed the boat down the river, and used the newly discovered 'Great Abyss Civilization Ruins' as bait, ready to take this opportunity to quickly cut through the chaos and eliminate hidden dangers, so as to prepare for the big conscription of the Void Realm front in the near future."
Zhao Qianjun was numb when he heard this, and he was stunned in place, and only after a while did he say, "Sister...... You're not going to fight in person, are you? ”
Zhao Tian said lightly and irrefutably: "I, the Tianshui Zhao clan, will not sit idly by, this battle involves the five lords and twelve families of the empire, and it is Uncle Gu on the front line of the Void Realm, who also intervenes." ”
Zhao Qianjun couldn't say a word.
This news is completely out of the level to which he belongs.
At best, it is a war that can determine the rise and fall of an empire, and at worst, it is enough to determine the future direction of any family.
He is not qualified to express his opinion in this matter, from strength and vision to resourcefulness.
Even the Hiss, who is about to enter the sacramental ministry, is probably just an introduction in a war of this level.
"Those people are still going to make a move on Gu Jiancheng?" Zhao Qianjun suddenly reacted.
"You can take Brother Cheng to the spiritual relics found by Wang Jirong and take refuge for the time being." Zhao Tianshui didn't answer directly, "Four days later, the dust will settle." ”
Zhao Qianjun was shocked and said, "Can it be completely calmed down in four days?" What are you kidding? ”
In his opinion, this "farce" has been common for several years.
When it comes to the five valves and twelve families of the empire, it is still a chaos centered on the royal family, and I am afraid that I haven't even served cold dishes for four days.
Then, Zhao Qianjun saw his own sister, who had been known as the "Founding Hope" of the Tianshui Zhao family since she was born, was silent for a long time, her eyes drooped slightly, and she said softly:
"Heath Arthur is not an ordinary star-studder, the moment he arrives in the imperial capital and walks into the stargate, the [supreme stars] of the great ones will once again look at this land."
"Ten years from now, the Empire will return to the Top of the Stars with him."
As if hearing something extremely absurd and incredible, Zhao Qianjun's face twitched.
For a long time, a distorted and shrill voice squeezed out from between his teeth:
"He's a [Dao Mark]?!"
"That guy was chosen as the [Dao Mark] of the Supreme Stars?!"
"He, Heath Arthur, why?!"
The absurdity of this news was no less ridiculous in his eyes than yesterday's Mr. Sheriff pointed at Gu Jiancheng and said-
Could this son be the [King of the Great Abyss]?
What a tyranny this is?!
He swore that if the other party was not Zhao Tianshui, he would definitely kick the other party's ass fiercely even if he was not thousands of miles away!
"This news is really ridiculous." Zhao Tianshui bowed slightly, "But the problem is that this is what Heath Arthur personally admitted, and we can only believe it." ”
"Besides, whether he is worthy or not, this is a good thing for the Empire, and you should be happy."
