Gu Gongzi?

Lie Yang's heart shook wildly, and when he looked at the man's face carefully, he was stunned - isn't this Gu Cheng fifty years ago?

It turns out that Gu Cheng and Jade Lotus were once a couple?

Lie Yang looked down to know the ins and outs of the matter.

Fifty years ago, the seventeen-year-old Jade Lotus was still the eldest lady of the Jade Family, the first family in Dragon City. Gu Cheng is young and promising, and he has become a general in his early twenties.

The cultivation talent of the two is extremely high, and their relationship was once envied and became a beautiful conversation. However, the first emperor ordered the preparation of the Wild Wave Army, which caused Jiangnan, who was accustomed to calm, to fall into panic.

Chenguo's defense line against Jinghai City is called the Jinghai Theater, and most of the previous soldiers were recruited from the Xuanxing Plain and the north of the plain.

It is probably because he feels that the area south of the Xuanjiang River is too comfortable, and he appreciates that the southerners are good at water, which is very beneficial to the long-term strategy. The emperor then ordered to prepare for the construction of a wild wave army dominated by Jiangnan soldiers!

Within three years, at least 400,000 elite soldiers will be trained!

Gu Cheng was highly regarded by the Emperor and became the leader of the Wild Wave Army, but the progress of the conscription has not been satisfactory. Even though the country of Chen has a large population, it is well fed and warmly clothed, and few people are willing to be a big soldier.

For a while, the people were angry, and they all resisted the court's reckless military behavior.

It is extremely unfortunate that Yu Jielian's younger brother Yu Jiexing died after rushing to the Jinghai Theater with the first batch of Wild Wave Army. At this time, it has a great influence in the rivers and lakes, because Jade Picking Star is the only son of the head of the family!

The sacrifice of the jade star means that the huge family business is not inherited. Gu Cheng, the leader of the Wild Tao Army, if he marries Yu Zhulian as his wife, he will almost pick up the family business of the Yu family for nothing, and he can save a lot of military expenses for the imperial court.

Maybe that's just a conspiracy theory, but it's also an undeniable fact that Gu Cheng didn't take care of Jade Picking Stars. Because of this, Yu Lian held a grudge and did not get along with Gu Cheng, and through the relationship of the Yu family, she knew the recruitment area of the government in advance.

The young and handsome people who are unwilling to enlist in the army will buy their identity cards at a high price, and then send people to the black domain!

This move greatly hindered the formation of the Wild Wave Army, and Gu Cheng was furious, and confiscated the Yu family on charges of abducting and selling people and defrauding the imperial court, and wanted to put Yu Lian to death.

Fifty years ago, the two fought a decisive battle at the Longqiao Bridge in Xuanjiang. Yu Lian was not Gu Cheng's opponent, and was seriously injured by him, and lost her fertility as a result.

Gu Cheng captured the jade lotus, and a few days later, he was going to kill it in public, so as to be a typical example.

At that time, Yu Jielian happened to meet Zhang Weiping, a swordsman in the rivers and lakes, Zhang Weiping fell in love with Yu Jielian at first sight, and was not afraid of tens of thousands of wild wave troops, one person and one sword killed the blood like a river, robbed the law field under Gu Cheng, and rescued Yu Jielian!

Although he lost a finger of his right hand, he also made a name for himself. Since then, he has been known as the "Nine-Fingered Sword", and the jade lotus has crisscrossed the rivers and lakes, and finally swept away many forces in the Black Gobi and became the king of the Black Gobi!

——

After reading the memory of Jade Picking Lotus, Lieyang felt a lot in his heart.

She and Zhang Weiping may not be really villains. If Gu Cheng hadn't calculated the Yu family's property and Jade Picking Star hadn't sacrificed, Jade Picking Lotus would definitely not become the "Third Old Lady of Lotus".

"No wonder ......" Lieyang remembered what Jade Picking Lotus hadn't finished before she died, "You want to return to your homeland and find Dragon City, which is your home." ”

Although it was too late to agree at that time, Lieyang no longer felt that Jade Lotus was a wicked person in his heart. What if you go to Dragon City and bury it?

As for Gu Cheng, Lie Yang couldn't say that he was wrong.

The hussar general started from scratch, and if he had not had some means, he would not have been able to climb to where he is today. The Jinghai Theater has always been stable, and Yu Jiexing is the son of the Jade Family, how could it be so coincidental that he was ambushed and killed by the people of Ningguo?

Unscrupulous means are the routine operations of the superiors. Not to mention anything else, even in the Flame War Zone, the competition between the children of the Lie family is the same.

The scorching sun is alone, and no one can shake his position. But the position of the second and third is also the eyes of countless people. For the sake of higher status, brothers and sisters can kill each other!

In addition to feeling cold, Lieyang thought that there was no need to blame.

When he was about ten years old, he was not too outstanding, and the children of the Lie family fought for their heads in Yanguan. Make each other stumble and wear small shoes, take advantage of people's unpreparedness, and daily cynicism is commonplace.

There is no bottom limit, survival of the fittest, that's all.

From a national point of view, the establishment of the Wild Waves Army has indeed reversed the situation in the Jinghai Theater, so that the famous Jinghai Navy god Mo Zixi does not dare to rashly provoke again.

The fact that Jade Picking Lotus is an obstacle is equivalent to committing treason, which is indeed a capital crime as far as the law is concerned.

——

Lieyang, Lu Yu, Leng Qianshuang, Lu Wei, Chen Zhi, and the four Silver Wing Warriors arrived at the Praetorian Guard Camp on the north side of the Black Nightmare Demon Realm at nightfall, which was actually on the south side of the West Yakamu Grand Canyon.

The king of the town was already in place, and when he saw the scorching sun coming early, his eyes were full of joy and surprise.

The good news is that this son is unpredictable and has completed an almost impossible task. What is surprising is that this son's strength is unpredictable, what if one day he is no longer willing to be subservient?

From all angles, Lieyang is not a guy who is willing to be controlled by others. He does not like to obey orders, he prefers to take his destiny into his own hands.

That night, he rested in the camp and solved the three goals of the Black Gobi, and the test arranged by Emperor Chen was only the Blue Sky Tribulation Domain. Lieyang's mind was relaxed, and he finally slept peacefully.

......

The next day, the nine-man team was ready to go.

In the Black Nightmare Demon Realm, the biggest threat comes from the Eight Bat Flying Snake, and now the Eight Bat Flying Snake has been killed by Song Qi, and the rest of the many illusions, the Sun does not pay attention to it.

It's just—

"Master, when you left the Praetorian Guard camp, it was already dawn, why ...... now" Lieyang led the team forward, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation, "It's getting darker and darker?"

Feng Lao was probably sleeping, and he replied in a daze: "Isn't there a dark spirit among the thirty-six spirits in the Stardust Continent? ”

"Okay...... "As the sun marched, he had already taken out the star stone spotlight and held it up at a height of ten meters with his soul power to illuminate the surroundings for everyone.

But when the light was spreading, I heard someone gasping for air.

The scorching sun glanced at it, and saw a sea of blood on the side of the road. In the sea of blood, a pair of blood-stained human hands stretched out, and the nails were two inches long, which looked extremely sharp!

"......" He subconsciously took out the Zhaolie Sword and looked at the strange scene in front of him. Regardless of the fact that he soon shook his head with a wry smile - where is the evil ghost, the blood-red human hand that appeared in the field of vision is actually a plant.

The red petals are spread out into a sea of blood, and the five red male cores of the flowers branch out, like fingers. Coupled with the yellow pollen dotted with joint lines, at first glance, it is simply a vivid "bloody hand"!

Chen Zhi glanced at it and said the name of the plant: "Demon Hand, this kind of plant is extremely rare on the mainland. It is mostly produced on the tropical islands of Ningguo. ”

"Oh?" Lieyang seemed to hear some interesting information, and continued to move forward, just leaving the "sea of blood", his feet suddenly "creaked", as if he would crush something with every foot.

On the left and right of the path are large expanses of bright yellow flowers, which look very beautiful. But when Lieyang looked down, he immediately frowned - he saw that under the sea of yellow flowers, there were finger-sized "skeletons"!

Thousands, countless!

On the path that came, it was the "creaking" sound that made when these skeletons were crushed.

Lu Wei can identify many flowers and plants, she pinched it, took a "skeleton" on the ground, and after carefully distinguishing it, she came to a conclusion: "This is a snapdragon, after the capsule dries up, it will shrink into a human skeleton." ”

"......" Lieyang opened his mouth speechlessly, and couldn't help but complain, "What kind of ghost things grow in the Black Nightmare Demon Realm, I don't know if I think I broke into the corpse mountain and blood sea, no wonder I have a nightmare." ”

The group was frightened by the demon's hand and snapdragons, and then continued to go deeper, and saw patches of dragon's blood trees, white crane taro, and all kinds of wonderful colors, intertwined into a strange and strange picture.

Fortunately, there are patches of purse peonies, and under the peach-like purse, the droplet-shaped flowers are extremely cute. Together, they resemble a sea of pink hearts.

And the cultivation camp of the Black Nightmare Demon Realm is in this beautiful sea of pink flowers.

Everyone worked together to erect high poles at the four corners of the camp, hang star stones, and clean up the houses that were slightly dusty. It's almost noon.

"Master, why are the dark spirits condensed here?" Lieyang entered the room, asking suspiciously, "And I feel weird. ”

"In any world, there will always be a place where light is condensed, and correspondingly, there must be a place where darkness is condensed. Feng Lao yawned leisurely and said, "The Black Nightmare Demon Realm is it, it's just a natural phenomenon, nothing strange." ”

"But I felt depressed. Lieyang didn't understand very much, when he set off this morning, he obviously felt in a good mood, and at first he talked and laughed with Leng Qianshuang, but after arriving at the camp and getting busy, everyone became silent.

"Isn't that?" snorted the Wind Old, "If the dark spirits can't make you depressed, they'll be blind to that attribute. Moreover, the plants along the way are deliberately arranged, and if you are not careful, you will be lost and eroded by the dark spirits. ”

"Oh oh......" Lie Yang scratched his head, and was about to go to bed to lie down for a while, but suddenly noticed a slight vibration under his feet, "This is?"

"I forgot to warn you—" Wind Lao saw the reason, and laughed evilly, "The vegetation in the Black Nightmare Demon Realm is luxuriant, and it turns out to be the territory of the Eight Manta Flying Snakes. Although there are no Eight Bat Flying Snakes now, there are still many powerful spirit beasts alive!"

"Ugh. Lieyang raised an eyebrow, "Won't you rush over when you see the light?"

Having learned about the relevant information before coming, Lieyang was not surprised.

"Not really. Feng Lao shook his shoulders, "And your strength is not weak, most spirit beasts don't dare to rush into it." It's just that some kind of small spirit beast suppressed by the Eight Bat Flying Snake will crawl out of the ground, and it has a strong phototaxis!"

Before the old wind spoke, Lie Yang felt that the vibration was becoming more and more obvious, and hurriedly asked, "What small spirit beast?"

Just waiting for the wind to answer, countless rustling sounds came from around, like insects chirping on a summer night, or dense leaf clusters shaking.

The peculiar biting sound made the scalp tingle of the scorching sun.

Feng Lao gave Lie Yang a soul power marker, pointed to a swarthy beetle the size of a palm that appeared in the room, and said, "This is it, Soul Devouring Scarab!"
