Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

Chapter 117 [116] The Seventh Piece of Equipment? (Two-in-one subscription required)
Weapon Foundry.

Dang Dang Dang!
The sound of metal clashing echoes from one end of the street to the other.

There were raging fires burning in the forging rooms almost all the time.

Weapons that have been forged hundreds, tens of thousands, or even thousands of times were born from the confluence of flames and cold water.

"Lao Ke! Lao Ke!"

Excited shouts were interspersed between the sounds of hammering, and a shirtless, muscular man in his fifties rushed into the forging room where Ke Juzhen was at the speed of a lightning.

"Lao Ke, take a break first. I have good news for you."

After the strong man came in, he kept shouting excitedly, "Gu Zheng, Gu Ping'an, they're back! Good guy, I just said good guy, this Gu Ping'an is amazing! Do you know what he did just now?"

Ding! Ding! Ding~
Ke Juzhen replied without even looking up, "I don't know."

"You won't think of it!"

The sturdy man clapped his hands, stamped his feet, and continued excitedly, "Gu Ping'an has made a breakthrough in front of a bunch of people! He didn't break through to the Super Body·Ladder to Heaven, but to the Super Body·Glory to the World! That's the late stage of the Super Body!"

“Glorious, glorious! Gu Zheng’s current life aura, once activated, will be like your forge, with flames blazing like the sun, impossible to be looked at with the naked eye!”

"Even if they close their eyes, ordinary people would not dare to face each other. Super Body · Brilliant World, the spiritual invasion is equally terrifying. Under the reflection, if you are not a super body, you can't do it even if you stand together."

"Old Ke, you actually made friends with such a master early on and personally upgraded his weapons twice. Tell me honestly, Old Ke, did you see that Gu Ping'an was extraordinary a long time ago?"

The sturdy man approached Ke Juzhen who had stopped hammering and said with envy, "Such a young Chao Ti Yao Shi, as long as nothing unexpected happens, in a few years, he will definitely be a demon-slaying general!"

Ke Juzhen did not respond, and his expression changed.

There was shock, astonishment, relief, and admiration.

"So, Gu Ping'an has now been promoted to a thousand households?" Ke Juzhen said with emotion.

"Of course!"

The sturdy man waved his hands vigorously and said excitedly, "It is said that Gu Ping'an's accumulated merits are more than 150 great merits, and even more. With enough merits and a certain realm, he will be promoted to a thousand households immediately!"

“It is said that even General Xie came in person to put a full moon cloak on Gu Ping’an!”

Without waiting for Ke Juzhen to speak, he continued, "General Meng and General Xie obviously saw that Gu Ping'an was extraordinary, so they accepted him as a student."

"Although he is called a student, he is actually almost the same as a disciple. The two generals must have given him a lot of good things in private, which is why Gu Ping'an's strength has improved so quickly!"

"Is that so?" Ke Juzhen was suspicious.

"Sure!"

The sturdy man had a look on his face that said, "How else could Gu Ping'an have made a breakthrough so quickly?"

……

The family quarters of small flags and general flags.

After Song Qingshan finished the work at hand, he stretched and walked out of the government office slowly.

As soon as I stepped into the yard, I heard a discussion full of envy and amazement.

Song Qingshan didn't take it to heart at first, but after hearing a few words, his body suddenly shook, and he quickened his pace and rushed over.

"What did you just say? Gu Ping'an has broken through the super-body and promoted to a thousand households?"

Song Qingshan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Yes."

The person being questioned was startled at first, but after he recovered, he excitedly narrated how Gu Zheng broke through the super body and became a thousand households in front of a group of people.

He was spitting all over the place as if he had been promoted, and he was inexplicably excited. "This matter has now spread to all departments of the Demon Slayer Bureau. Even the street sweeper knows about it!"

"Gu Zheng and Gu Ping'an, the twenty-something Qianhu, have become famous!"

"Gu Zheng became famous after the demon incident at Jinshan Temple last time. However, with his promotion to the rank of Qian Hu this time, Gu Zheng's fame has become even greater. I believe it won't be long before his fame spreads throughout Fengzhou."

"Yeah, Super Body·Shining World... Damn it, even Alien Body·Shadow of the Shadow can't break through."

"Can you compare with him? He is a genius who will never be born!"

"..."

The group of people started arguing, exclaiming and sighing.

Song Qingshan didn't listen to their words anymore. At this moment, he just felt dizzy, his vision overlapped, and the picture was shaking.

Lucy, the shining star?
Promoted to a thousand households! ?
After Gu Zheng returned from his third mission, he was really promoted to a higher rank, from a hundred households to a thousand households?!

With such a fast promotion speed, how can others survive...

……

Gu Zheng made a breakthrough and was promoted to the rank of Qian Hu. Everyone in the Demon Slaying Bureau was moved and amazed and discussed it excitedly.

Outside the provincial capital, various wealthy families, local big families, and even the provincial government learned the news.

A group of dignitaries were also inexplicably excited.

In order to gain friendship with Gu, he gave him money, gifts, weapons and beautiful women.

The problem was that they couldn't get in touch with Gu Zheng himself, so they were at a loss again.

It was just like that last time. Gu Zhengda didn’t go out of the Demon Slayer Bureau, so they couldn’t see anyone.

It’s the same this time, it’s useless to use connections.

How can you make connections if you can’t even meet the person?

So, the excitement quickly turned into sighs and helplessness.

……

In a restaurant with only three tables of diners.

"Ha, what did I hear? Gu Zheng broke through the super-body·Shining World and was promoted to a thousand households?"

Ding Chunjing put away his fan and pressed it on the table, looking very strange, "Is this true? What treasure did Gu Zheng get when he went into the underground cave that allowed him to break through to the Super Body Brilliant World so quickly?"

"Isn't the point that Xie Bisheng accepted him as his apprentice?" Ding Xitian frowned.

"Really?" Ding Chunjing was suspicious. "Didn't Xie Bisheng just accept Gu Zheng as an ordinary student?"

"Do you believe that?" Ding Xitian looked at him like an idiot. "Without Xie Bisheng's help, how could Gu Zheng break through so quickly? The source fruit basically improves one-sided strength. Unless one happens to be stuck at the peak of the alien body or the peak of the super body, taking the source fruit such as Shenyuan can directly break through."

"Gu Zheng broke through the super-body and shone through the world. Xie Bisheng definitely provided assistance!"

"..." Ding Chunjing opened his mouth for a while, then with a click, he opened the fan again and shook it, "Whatever, it's not me who likes him anyway, you want to..."

"What was I thinking?" Ding Xitian interrupted, "I wasn't thinking about anything, don't accuse me!"

"..." Ding Chunjing gave a thumbs up, "Okay, you are right!"

"Humph~"

Ding Xitian crossed her legs and said, "That's right."

……

……

Gu Zheng had been staying in a separate room in the side hall of the internal affairs department for two days and one night.

After completely digesting the energy of the "Qingyuan Pill" and consolidating the new stage of Super Body·Shining World that he had just broken through, and being able to freely control the release and retraction of his aura, he left and returned to the courtyard where he lived.

After being promoted to a thousand households, you can actually move to a bigger courtyard that can accommodate the whole family.

Gu Zheng doesn't need that much space just for himself.

The original independent courtyard is enough.

After coming back, equip the Bone Crown first!

Constitution, strength, agility, and spirit all reach 300, meeting the equipment requirements.

Gain the "Fearless" equipment effect.

This effect is described as "the king's body collapses in front of him but his expression remains unchanged, and the evil dragon approaches from behind but he remains unperturbed."

It looks a bit complicated, but its actual effect is very simple: it relieves stress!

Able to calmly resist the pressure from a higher level!
Both the Haoti and Wangti can be ignored.

Above the heroic body is the kingly body.

The powerful physical pressure that Xie Bisheng had released in the underground cave in Kaigu County was not mainly aimed at Gu Zheng, but at Wang Xianyi and the others.

But Gu Zheng still felt the terrifying oppressive force both in body and soul.

The pressure that made his entire body and mind tremble was more than ten times stronger than when a person in the alien realm faced a person in the super realm.

At that time, Gu Zheng understood why Wang Xianyi turned around and ran after discovering Xie Bisheng.

It's really the pressure from the Heroic Body Realm that is too terrifying.

If the Hao body is like this, what is the level of the Wang body?
It will only get stronger!

But now with the equipment effect of "Fearless", Gu Zheng no longer has to worry about the pressure from the heroic body and the king body in the future.

As for the "demon dragon" in the description, it refers to various evil dragons among demons.

Every demon dragon, once it reaches adulthood, is at level four, and is as powerful as a king-body realm being.

The power of the magic dragon and the power of the king's body are at the same level.

Gu Zheng was no longer afraid when he encountered it.

It can be said that the equipment effect of "Fearless" has a very strong auxiliary function.

It's just a bit passive. If Gu Zheng wants to feel it, he has to formally meet his opponent.

You can't just go find Xie Bisheng and ask him to do it to you, right?

……

Gu Zheng was too lazy to get involved in the noise from the outside world.

Consolidate the realm after the breakthrough, and continue to ponder the creation of real skills while taking a rest.

On the basis of "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue", we extend and construct new theories and open up new paths.

This time, the path must be able to break through the realm.

Starting from Alien Body·Xianfeng, step by step, it rises to Alien Body·Zhaoying, and finally reaches Alien Body Peak.

Four small steps, first develop the theory.

The "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue" has transformed water into mist, which has the ability to burn people.

On this basis, there is the boiling, sweeping and roaring of steam!
Strengthen the physical body so that it can be like a giant boat, braving the wind and waves and sailing on the rivers and lakes.

No matter how high, big or thick the waves are, they will all be smashed!

Recalling some of the shocking scenes I had seen in my previous life, the theoretical content of Zhen Gong was quickly born.

After the framework was completely formed, Gu Zheng named this new skill "The Raging Waves Kung Fu".

On the panel, "The Art of Raging Waves" (not mastered yet) immediately appeared.

Become!

If it can be displayed, then we can add some deduction to improve it!
Consume 20 demon points to upgrade the "Raging Waves" to the entry level.

Consume another 35 demon points to deduce the "Raging Waves" and upgrade it to mastery.

Continue to consume 60 demon points to deduce the "Raging Waves" skill and upgrade it to a small success.

Then consume 95 demon points to deduce the "Shocking Waves" and upgrade it to perfection.

I want to consume more and upgrade the deduction to perfection, but I don’t have enough demon points.

The highly accomplished "Shocking Waves and Raging Waves" can now be passed on.

Gu Zheng closed his eyes, comprehended the new true skill, and mastered it in his heart.

……

That night.

Gu Zheng took off his Silver Moon Armor, changed into casual clothes, took Fat Tiger with him, left the Demon Slaying Division, glided through the air, and rushed back to Qingshi County.

When we were about to enter Qingshi County, we saw a group of people hurrying on their way in the dark.

The line is a bit long.

Led by a caravan, there were other people, including men, women, young and old.

Although there were many people, more than two hundred, no one made any sound. They just walked along the road with their heads down, relying on the moonlight.

"Ow~"

"Ow!"

A wolf howl was heard in the forest behind.

These beasts, smelling the scent, stared with their eyes glowing in the night, running and shuttling back and forth on the mountain, leaving behind messy footsteps and creating a terrifying momentum. They rushed out of the forest and pounced on the team.

"Don't mess up!"

"Don't panic!"

In the team, a sturdy man, brandishing a long sword, rode his horse, turned around, and ran along the perimeter of the crowd, shouting, "Shieldmen in front, spearmen in the back. Archers, light your arrows immediately, aim and shoot!"

"Yes!"

Nervous but calm responses followed and became one.

midair.

Gu Zheng watched the crowd's response, listened to the familiar shouts, glanced at the muscular man riding a horse, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"What a coincidence."

……

shhhhhh!
The sharp sound of breaking wind rang out in the night.

Arrows with ignited arrowheads drew arcs and shot towards the wolves that rushed out of the forest.

puff puff!

"Ah~!"

Wolves howled everywhere, and most of the arrows missed the target, with only a few hitting the target.

But these forest wolves were twice as big as before, and ordinary arrows shot at them only penetrated the membrane before the arrowheads got stuck.

The wolf rushed again, plundering the trees and dropping arrows.

After a wave of arrows, not a single wolf was killed.

However, it is still a wild animal after all, and it is instinctively afraid of fire.

The flaming arrows shot onto the ground, forming a circle around the team, with flames blazing.

The wolves swam quickly outside the circle of fire, growling non-stop.

From time to time, they rushed towards the protective wall formed by shield bearers, making a muffled bang sound.

The young and strong men holding shields were either knocked away or fell to the ground, with screams rising and falling one after another.

The shouts of killing also resounded throughout the mountains and forests. Spearmen raised their spears, three in a row, and stabbed the wild wolves, successfully killing several of them.

"Tattoo~"

The burly man rode on a horse, charging back and forth, wielding a long sword taller than him, and with a fierce aura, he swept past the running wolves.

shuh~
"puff!"

The knife flashed, and a ferocious wolf head flew into the air.

"Awooo~!"

“Roar! Roar~”

The other wild wolves heard the news and surrounded the burly man in groups.

Swish swish!
"Ow~"

puff!puff!puff!
The sword light flashed continuously, and the energy brought by cutting through the void surrounded the body, making it impenetrable.

As soon as the wild wolf approached, it was hit by the sharp blade of the long knife, either chopping off its head, or its limbs, or simply cutting it in half.

The burly man relieved the pressure on the team by himself.

The wolves, however, were fearless and continued to attack the horse under the sturdy man.

The black horse was also brave and smart. It did not stop for a moment. It ran madly with all four hooves despite the power of the wolf pack, and stirred up a lot of wolf blood and meat with the strong man.

"Ouch~!!"

Suddenly, a loud roar of an animal was heard from the top of the mountain.

A majestic, unquestionable wolf howl.

Along with the roar, the wolves attacking the team suddenly became more crazy, and began to rush towards the team without fear of the flames.

Ordinary people hiding in the middle of the team suddenly screamed in fear.

The young and strong men on the periphery also looked despairing.

The sturdy man roared in anger, "Damn God..." Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly rang out.

A rain of arrows invisible to the naked eye fell from the sky.

"Puff puff puff~!"

Every arrow that landed on the ground accurately hit a wild wolf's head and pierced the wolf's head on the spot, killing it beyond all possibility of death.

The wolves attacked frantically and all died in less than two breaths.

Huge wolf corpses fell to the ground, many of them even fell on the people who had fallen down.

The frightened and desperate crowd was stunned and looked up at the sky in shock and confusion.

The same is true for strong men.

However, he suddenly turned his head and looked into the forest.

It was discovered that the wolf king, who had originally rushed down the mountain, had also fallen silent.

The next moment, a huge and ferocious wolf head suddenly flew out from the forest.

With a plop, it fell in front of him and rolled twice.

"Goo~"

Lu Guangbei swallowed, his back tensed and his eyelids twitched.

"Brother Lu, long time no see."

A clear voice came from the woods, and Gu Zheng slowly appeared and walked towards Lu Guangbei.

Lu Guangbei, the chief escort of Shuntong Escort Agency, was a top-notch expert before the disaster.

But it is not in Nanyun Prefecture, but a county town under the jurisdiction of Kaiyuan Prefecture, north of Fengzhou.

I had dealt with Gu Zheng several times more than three years ago. He was a generous and righteous man, so I wanted to make friends with him and we had a good relationship.

When I saw him again today, Lu Guangbei was still the same Lu Guangbei, willing to fight for the people below him instead of abandoning the team and running away.

With Gu Zheng's current vision, how could he not see that Lu Guangbei had already entered the Grandmaster realm.

If Lu Guangbei charged alone, he would definitely be able to fight his way out.

The wolves want the majority of people, so they won’t chase them.

It's hard to estimate the wolf king who gives orders.

This beast has also reached the limit of its ferocity and can transform into a different beast at any time, possessing supernatural powers.

Lu Guangbei faced it with a 30:70 split.

Lu Guangbei three, Wolf King seven!

……

"Gu...Gu Ping'an?"

Lu Guangbei's eyes widened as he looked at Gu Zheng who came out, and he said in astonishment, "It was... you who killed the wolf pack?"

After he finished speaking, he slapped himself twice, quickly got off the horse, knelt down with a plop, faced Gu Zheng, and saluted with gratitude, "Shuntong Escort Agency, Lu Guangbei, greet Lord Gu!"

"See Mr. Gu!"

When the others at the back heard the shouts, they all knelt down and saluted excitedly, shouting in unison.

"You know me?"

Gu Zheng was slightly surprised. He raised his hand, released a burst of strength, and lifted up Lu Guangbei.

"Brother Lu, we are old acquaintances, there is no need to be like this."

As he spoke, he looked at the others behind him and said calmly, "Everyone, get up, clean up the scene, and move all the wolf meat away. Don't waste it!"

The last sentence was said with a smile.

"Hahaha!"

Lu Guangbei stood up in surprise and laughed out loud, "Master Gu is right, everyone should not waste it!"

"Thank you, Master Gu!"

"Master Gu, the great judge of heaven!"

"There is meat to eat~"

The crowd cheered and shouted in celebration.

In this wave of wolf attack, except for a few who suffered minor injuries at the beginning, everyone else was fine, just a little mentally tired.

Traveling day and night, with a tense mind and mediocre food, how could I not be tired?

Now with Gu Zheng and the wolf meat on the ground, everyone is relaxed and happy.

Nearly fifty timber wolves were immediately picked up with the concerted efforts of everyone, and no one was willing to throw away a piece of meat.

Including the huge corpse of the wolf king in the forest, they were carried out with the joint efforts of several big men.

The official road was bustling with activity.

Gu Zheng on this side also asked Lu Guangbei about the situation and why he appeared in Nanyun with so many people.

"Hey~!"

Lu Guangbei sighed, not disguising it, and sat down on a rock to relax and take a breath. He replied, "It's hard to survive in the north. Except for those in the city, almost everyone outside the city has died. I fled Kaiyuan Prefecture with my men years ago, but when I arrived in Sifang Prefecture, less than ten of my old friends were left."

"When Sifang City fell, I realized something was wrong and prepared to flee south again, but halfway through, many people died and I was forced to turn back."

"Until a few days ago, I heard the news that Sifang City had been unsealed. It was said that a talented centurion from the Demon Slaying Division, Gu Zheng, eliminated the field and saved the entire city."

"Genius Gu Zheng, when I heard about it, I had my doubts, but I didn't think much about it. It wasn't until Mr. Yang came to me and said that the whole family was moving to Qingshi County that I was sure that the genius Gu Zheng was Ping An!"

At the end, Lu Guangbei showed no sign of concealing surprise on his face, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

When he met Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng was not even a top-notch master.

As a result, it has only been a short time and they have all become powerful people in the super physical realm!

He is also a talented centurion of the Demon-Slaying Bureau, and his official position is higher than that of the prefect.

Grandmaster, alien, super body, field, demon...

Most people in the world now know this information.

The more chaotic the place, the more people know about it.

The more you know, the more shocked you are!

"I'm lucky too."

Gu Zheng chuckled and looked at a middle-aged man who was standing stiffly not far away and didn't dare to approach. "Is that Mr. Yang?"

"Correct."

Lu Guangbei took a deep breath, calmed himself, and called out, "Mr. Yang, Mr. Gu wants you to come over for a chat."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

The middle-aged man hurriedly trotted over, stopped when he was five steps away from Gu Zheng, bowed and said, "I am Yang Xianda, meeting Master Gu! Thank you for your rescue, which allowed my family to survive."

As he spoke, he knelt down.

"No need to be polite."

Gu Zheng raised his hand and used his strength to stop Yang Xianda from kneeling. "Does Mr. Yang have any business dealings with my Gu family?"

"Yes Yes."

Yang Xianda bowed slightly excitedly and replied, "I have been doing business with Shopkeeper Gu for three years. I admire him very much. I have also heard Shopkeeper Gu mention Master Gu, saying that Master Gu is a young hero, handsome, and a martial arts genius..."

"Okay, okay."

Lu Guangbei raised his hand to interrupt, "Master Gu doesn't like people who flatter him, so Mr. Yang, you'd better stop trying."

"Ah? Haha." Yang Xianda was embarrassed and laughed dryly, not daring to speak again.

"Brother Lu still understands me."

Gu Zheng smiled and asked, "Mr. Yang hired Brother Lu and moved his family to Qingshi County. Did he receive an invitation from my sister or heard some rumors?"

The shopkeeper Gu mentioned by Yang Xianda is Gu Paner.

Given Gu Paner's personality, after learning about the situation outside, she would invite her former partners to seek refuge in Qingshi County.

"It is indeed the invitation from Shopkeeper Gu."

Yang Xianda answered respectfully, "Years ago, Yang received a letter from Shopkeeper Gu. But at that time, Yang did not take it seriously, thinking that the world was like this and there was no safe place. Until... until Lord Gu rescued Sifang City, and Shopkeeper Gu mentioned that Lord Gu had joined the Demon Slaying Division, Yang..."

Yang Xianda didn't say anything else and just smiled awkwardly.

Gu Zheng was not angry, he just raised his hand to signal him to rest assured.

What Yang Xianda did was just human nature.

If you are not sure that it is 90% safe, moving your whole family is something that only a person with a weak mind would do.

The genius Gu Zheng is Gu Zheng, the chief constable of Qingshi County.

Yang Xianda immediately hired people and took his whole family to Qingshi County, which was a very courageous move.

You know, there are demons roaming around everywhere now.

Nanyun Prefecture is no exception.

Although Lu Guangbei is a master, he was able to protect so many people and get here thanks to the rangers of the Demon Slaying Division.

The Demon-Suppressing Guards travel around the country, clearing out more and more demons along the way.

It was because of their wandering around that the people fleeing from the north to the south did not die along the way.

……

"Brother Lu, after arriving at Qingshi County tomorrow, remember to go to the county government office."

After figuring out what was going on, Gu Zheng looked at Lu Guangbei and invited him, "If there is anyone with outstanding martial arts talent who you think is promising, you can bring them along."

"Oh?"

Lu Guangbei was puzzled, but did not ask for details. He clasped his fists and said, "Since Lord Gu has invited me, I must go no matter what, even if I have to crawl! Haha..."

Gu Zheng also smiled.

The purpose of inviting Lu Guangbei was naturally to teach him the "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue".

This technique cannot help one break through realms, but it can cultivate miraculous true skills. It has been passed on to other people, so it naturally cannot be abandoned in my hometown of Qingshi County.

Gu Zheng will find the county magistrate Tong Yuanshan to organize and pass on the real skills.

A martial master like Lu Guangbei, who practices "Bi Bo Yan Xia Jue", has a high probability of achieving a breakthrough and giving birth to something miraculous.

As for the Gu family themselves, they naturally practiced the "Raging Waves and Shocking Waves".

There are many miraculous people born in Qingshi County.

In this way, even if demons come here, they can't harm people.

But the Gu family must stand at the forefront!

……

Save people to the end.

Gu Zheng did not rush home, but followed the team and escorted them for the last stretch of the journey.

It was not until dawn when I entered the county town that I said goodbye to Lu Guangbei.

arrive home.

Gu Zheng did not disturb anyone else, he just called Gu Sihai and Gu Paner over.

He told the two of them the origin and practice method of the real skill "Shocking Waves".

By the way, I also gave him a few Yiyuan Pills.

"Dad, big sister, the situation outside is getting more and more chaotic. Only by strengthening yourself can you protect yourself and your family."

Gu Zheng said sternly, "This 'Turning Waves Technique' was created by me specifically for the Gu family. It must not be spread out! Once it is spread out, the impact will be very great! It may even lead to the destruction of the Gu family, and I will die."

"Then I won't practice anymore!" Gu Sihai's face turned pale and he quickly rejected the martial arts.

Gu Paner also said nervously, "Ping An, Dad is right, we won't practice anymore."

"As long as we are among our own people practicing, it will be fine."

Gu Zheng smiled and said, "I mean the impact is big, I mean after it spreads out, we don't care. If someone really learns it secretly, as long as we destroy the other person's skills, it will be fine."

"Then I understand." Gu Sihai took a breath and said solemnly, "Ping An, don't worry, for now, only you and I know about this."

"Well, how about I just stop practicing?" Gu Pan'er was embarrassed. "I'm not cut out for martial arts, and I don't really like it..."

"You don't have to go deeper if you don't like it, but you have to do it!"

Gu Zheng interrupted, "If you want to gain a firm foothold in the future, you will need the supernatural."

"Well... okay then." Gu Paner sighed.

"..." Gu Zheng glanced at her and said, "Big sister, how many invitations have you sent out to invite our partners to come to Qingshi County?"

"Ah? Does this matter affect you, Ping An?" Gu Pan'er was shocked. "I sent out more than a dozen copies, but so far, only three have come."

"I ran into Yang Xianda outside the county last night."

Gu Zheng replied, "It has no impact on me. This can be considered saving lives. However, more people will die during the migration process."

"Just because there are only three families here doesn't mean that others haven't set out. It's very likely that those people also set out but died on the way."

"I...I..." Gu Paner was stunned and her face gradually turned pale.

"It has nothing to do with you." Gu Sihai comforted, "Pan'er, you have good intentions, but life and death are determined by God. It is their fate to die on the road."

That being said, Gu Paner's condition did not improve much.

His face was still pale, and his eyes were full of self-blame.

She needs to sort this out herself.

Gu Zheng didn't offer much comfort.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, Gu Sihai remembered something and said, "By the way, Ping An, Li Cunyi came back a few days ago. He left something for you."

"Ok?"

Gu Zheng was curious, "Brother Li left again after he came back?"

"Correct."

Gu Sihai nodded and said strangely, "When Li Cunyi came back this time, I felt that something was wrong. I can't tell what it was, but I just felt that he seemed very tired."

"very tired?"

Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Are you tired physically or mentally?"

"Oh, that's right."

Gu Sihai suddenly realized, "In terms of physical aura, Li Cunyi gave me the feeling that he has become stronger, but his eyes are very tired, there is sadness and frustration between his brows, and I can't see anything else. In short, he is very tired, mentally tired!"

"Ok."

Gu Zheng nodded, "It seems that he encountered a big thing and can't hold on any longer."

"should be."

Gu Sihai smiled and said, "Never mind him, let's go to my place. I still have all the things that Li Cunyi left behind. I haven't touched them yet."

Immediately, Gu Zheng followed Gu Sihai to his bedroom.

Gu Sihai took out a sealed jade box from the secret room in the compartment and handed it to Gu Zheng.

There is also a lock on the jade box.

Gu Sihai took out the key given by Li Cunyi.

Gu Zheng took it, unlocked it, and opened the jade box.

A black ring with an ancient shape, embroidered with mysterious patterns, stained with a lot of blood, but exuding an invisible aura, immediately caught the eyes of the two.

"This is... a ring?" Gu Sihai was puzzled. "Why did Li Cunyi give you a ring?"

Gu Zheng didn't say anything, but his heart was shocked.

Just because——
