Chapter 20 Hongjiang Yinfeng

Gu Xing saw the huge city in front of him, and felt very shocked, in fact, Gu Xing is also a modern person who has seen the world, the traffic shuttles, high-rise buildings don't care, why are you surprised by the city in front of you? It's not that I haven't seen this kind of city with a city wall and was shocked, and I couldn't help but ask Murong Shuanghua next to him: "Such a big city, it's really unexpected, how many people can be accommodated here?"

Murong Shuanghua glanced at Gu Xing and said, "This is big, this is just an ordinary small city, when you see the imperial capital city in the future, it will be a real big city." ”

Gu Xing saw that Tian Yulin also looked clear, and couldn't help but secretly slander the two of them pretending to be B, and then continued to look up at the city gate that was getting closer and closer.

When they passed through the city gate guarded by guards, the people of the Silver Maple Gang just showed a sign casually and entered the city generously.

Gu Xing and others saw the situation in the city, a little surprised, the streets here are wide, there are some shops on both sides, and the buildings here are the highest but three floors, but the area seems not small, at this time, there don't seem to be many people, I don't know if there are not many people here, or there are many people at home, anyway, the streets are very empty, not only empty, but also give people a very depressed feeling, it seems that this place is not like the imaginary prosperity.

Although the two of the Silver Maple Gang didn't say a word along the way, Gu Xing obviously felt that they seemed to be relieved at this time.

When it was about to get dark, I came to a high wall, and after walking a short distance along the high wall, a dark gate tower appeared in sight, and there were six people standing in a row at the door, and three people standing on the left and right.

As soon as the five of them approached, the eyes of the six people shot at the same time, and Gu Xing felt a strange heaviness coming to him, but this feeling disappeared in an instant, and several people bowed down at the same time: "Meet the two deacons." ”

As soon as the two people who took the lead waved their hands, someone directly opened the black door, and it was a shadow wall, but they couldn't see the situation inside, and when the door opened, an old man appeared at the door.

After seeing that the two of them had spoken a few words to the old man, they went straight inside, and the old man said to the three of Gu Xing, "You three come with me." ”

Naturally, the servants did not have any objections, and after bypassing the shadow wall, Gu Xing looked up and saw a building about five stories high not far away, and was slightly stunned: "I have only seen such a tall building here, and the others are all three-storey, don't people in this world build tall buildings?" Gu Xing thought.

After going around a few courtyards, the old man led the three of them to a small courtyard, and then pointed to the three rooms on the side and said, "The three of you will stay here for the time being tonight, and you will leave early tomorrow morning." ”

Gu Xing and the three of them were stunned: "Do you want to leave tomorrow?"

The old man smiled: "Let's rest here for a night tonight, in the future, there will be no such a good environment, after a while, someone will bring you food, and you are not allowed to leave this courtyard." The last sentence was already a bit harsh, and he turned to leave.

The three of Gu Xing looked at each other, and they all walked helplessly to the three rooms next to them.

Gu Xing entered the room and saw that it was very simple, with a table, a chair and a bed, a teapot and a few cups on the table, as well as a candlestick, and only a set of bedding on the bed, and the others were empty.

Gu Xing lit the lamp of the candlestick, sat at the table and began to be in a daze, not for a long time, someone knocked on the door gently, Gu Xing habitually said: "Please come in." ”

As soon as the door opened, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child appeared in front of him, slightly older than himself, Gu Xing looked at this person, his face was slightly dark, his stature was not tall, he was slightly thin, he was carrying a food box in his hand, and after coming in with his head down, he whispered in his mouth: "Your meal." ”

Gu Xing's eyes blinked a few times and said, "Put it on the table." ”

The child quickly brought the meal to the table, Gu Xing looked at the four dishes, all of them were meat dishes, and they were large pieces of meat, and there was a plate of six steamed buns, maybe he was hungry, smelling the fragrance of these dishes, his index finger moved.

Gu Xing was just about to prepare for dinner, when he saw the child pick up the teapot on the table and walk out, and didn't say anything to Gu Xing, Gu Xing felt a little weird, but if there was something to eat, he didn't care about anything else.

Gu Xing ate four different flavors of meat, and compared with his mother's craftsmanship in his heart, it was still not as delicious as at home.

When he had just eaten a steamed bun, the child came back, holding the teapot in his hand, and after giving Gu Xing a glass of water, he quietly took a few steps back and watched Gu Xing eat.

Gu Xing glanced at the child and asked, "What's your name?"

The child replied, "My name is Kai." ”

Gu Xing looked at his thin appearance and couldn't help asking, "Have you eaten, I can't eat alone, let's eat together." ”

The child looked at Gu Xing with some surprise and said, "No, I've eaten, there are fixed meals for us to eat every day, if you eat more, you will be beaten." ”

Gu Xing was stunned: "Why do you work for people at such a young age?"

"I'm an ordinary person who can't cultivate, what else can I do if I don't do this? However, there is also a salary for working here, and I can also provide for my old age. The child said.

When Gu Xing heard this, he shook his head slightly, secretly thinking to himself that his physical body was not a person who could not cultivate before, and that ending was not the same tragic as this child?

Gu Xing thought for a while, and he was relieved, but he really couldn't eat these meals, and just when he was about to continue to persuade him to come and eat some, he heard the child continue: "If you can't eat it, you have to keep it and wrap it up, but tomorrow you will use these foods to replenish your strength." ”

Gu Xing was stunned: "How do you say this?"

The child shook his head: "You don't need to ask, I don't know the specifics." ”

Hearing this, Gu Xing looked at the five steamed buns and four plates of meat on the table, and his mind was rolling: "Could it be that you haven't eaten since tomorrow? Or limit the amount of food? In this case, there is something wrong with this Silver Maple Gang." ”

Gu Xing thought about it, and lost his appetite, and asked, "What kind of bags are these used for?"

When the child heard this, he took out a stack of plant leaves, which were the same as lotus leaves, but a little thick, and then put them on the table for Gu Xing.

When Gu Xing saw it, he didn't politely wrap the remaining steamed buns and meat pieces separately, and the child didn't say much when he saw that Gu Xing had wrapped the food, so he put away the plate and left the room with the food box.

Gu Xing looked at the three clumps of food in front of him in confusion, and didn't know how to describe his mood at this time for a while, and after thinking for a long time, Gu Xing finally lay down on the bed: "No matter, since the kid reminds me, I'll take it first." With a movement of his mind, three packets of food fell into the spatial ring.

Early the next morning, I heard someone shouting at the door: "The hour has come, get up, get up." ”

Gu Xing got up with a bone, cleaned up his clothes, and then washed up a little, and then opened the door and walked out of the room.

When he got out of the courtyard and saw the scene in front of him, Gu Xingleng was stunned, but he reacted immediately and stood quietly.

It turned out that there were a lot of children the same size as Gu Xing gathered here, and it seemed that they were all some talented children collected by the Silver Maple Gang, and they were probably going to be cultivated together.

Seeing three people standing at the gate, not the three people who brought them yesterday, but three sturdy young people, with a calm momentum, but their appearance was very ordinary, one of them held a black notebook in his hand, glanced at the courtyard, and then said in a loud voice: "Below, I will name the name, and when I arrive, I will say 'no'." ”

Then this person opened the black book and began to take the roll call, Gu Xing listened quietly, and when he called himself, he hurriedly agreed: "No!"

Soon the roll call was completed, Gu Xing roughly calculated, there were not many people here, exactly sixty people.

After the person named the roll call, he handed the notebook to a man dressed in black on the other side and took a step back.

And the person who took the notebook took a step forward and said: " You are all candidates with good qualifications found by our Silver Maple Gang in the territory under their jurisdiction, however, to join the Gang, you have to go through an assessment, those who have passed the assessment, you can enter the inner hall of the Gang, there are professional teachers to teach, it is very beneficial to your future development, and this assessment fails, you can only enter the outer hall of the Gang, even so, it is much stronger than you staying in the original town, a resource for you to be sixteen years old, and there is a chance to enter the inner hall, when the time comes, you will know, first ask, does anyone quitοΌŸβ€

This person glanced at the children around, and saw that the eyes of these children were shining without exception, and they looked excited, and no one said to quit, so he said lightly: "Since no one has withdrawn, then it's good, I'm your leader this time, my name is Mo Ming, you can call me Senior Brother Mo, okay, let's go." ”

After that, he didn't continue to be verbose, just waved his hand and walked out.

The other two people moved to both sides of the door, and these children suddenly followed out, Gu Xing looked at the chaotic crowd, and was not in a hurry to mix in the middle of the crowd, and after going out, several big cars were parked, and several of them were already full of people.

Gu Xing was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this time the Silver Maple Gang would attract so many people, as the crowd climbed into the car, the six big cars slowly set off, and as soon as they got out of the west gate of Hongjiang City, they began to speed up, and when it was time to arrive, Gu Xing saw a huge mountain peak in the car.

When they reached the bottom of the mountain, nearly four hundred people stood in front of the peak, and a middle-aged man in black stood in front of everyone and said loudly: "Everyone, start to take the assessment, do you see the mountain in front of you? ”

The middle-aged man didn't say anything, and began to let these children climb the mountain and enter the assessment.

Gu Xing glanced up, the height of the mountain peak could not be seen, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, if it was an adult, it would be okay, but these children were about ten years old, and the oldest was fourteen or fifteen years old, huge peaks, and it was so steep, Gu Xing sighed slightly, fortunately, there was still a way to go, so he had to climb up with everyone, but he still felt a little funny about such a simple assessment of the Silver Maple Gang.

To Gu Xing's surprise, perhaps the body was transformed by the pill, and he didn't realize how difficult it was to climb the mountain, and at noon, he actually climbed more than halfway, looking at those children whose breath was unstable, and those children who were left behind by himself, Gu Xing was a little proud: "I didn't expect that my physical strength is so abundant, it seems that the effect of the pill last time to transform the body is really extraordinary, but the pain at that time is also chilling when I think about it now." ”

Gu Xing thought about something boring, took out the food and began to eat it, obviously a little hungry at this time, fortunately he didn't lose these, the child's reminder was still very right.
