Jidao: I have ten equipment slots

This breath...

"interesting."

Gu Zheng raised the corner of his mouth, and his figure flashed, descending from the air and appeared in front of the old man.

Wow~!

The others, who were originally shocked, were suddenly in an uproar when they saw Gu Zheng appear. Some retreated, and some became nervous.

Dunmu Xitu was pleasantly surprised and kowtowed to Gu Zheng again, "Greetings to the king from afar!"

"My surname is Gu."

Gu Zheng transmitted his voice in a mysterious way, raised his hand and said, "Patriarch, please stand up."

As he spoke, a gentle force was released, lifting Dunmu Shitu up and making him stand upright.

"Thank you, King Gu!"

Dunmu Xitu clasped his fists and said gratefully, "Thank you, King Gu, for saving us. I didn't expect there to be a Silver Moon level monster among these monsters. If it weren't for King Gu, I'm afraid all of us would have died today, and the Youyan Tribe would have perished."

Silver Moon level? Second level demon?

Gu Zheng said calmly, "It's just a matter of convenience, no need to thank me, clan leader. I came here to ask the clan leader, have you ever had a special insect here before?"

"Master Shen Chong?"

Dunmu Xitu was stunned when he heard this, and then he asked cautiously, "Is King Gu here for Lord Shenchong?"

Divine insect?

Gu Zheng chuckled, "Don't be nervous. I was just passing by and came down to ask after sensing the scent of the strange insect. If I find the strange insect, I won't harm it, but will need its help."

To condense the divine seed, the ninth strange insect is indispensable.

I came over to take a look this time, and coincidentally, I sensed the scent of a strange insect!
"That's good."

Dunmu Xitu breathed a sigh of relief and then smiled, "Please forgive me, King Gu. The reason why our tribe's warriors can grow so fast is because of the help of Lord Shenchong."

"Tell me more about it."

Gu Zheng pretended to listen.

"Okay." Dunmu Xitu nodded and asked Gu Zheng to walk to a well-preserved house not far away. "Please come this way, King Gu. Let's go inside and try our special fruit tea."

Gu Zheng did not refuse and followed behind.

As he walked, Dunmu Shitu waved to others and gave orders in the language passed down from ancient times.

Gu Zheng had been taught the ancient language when he was learning characters before, so he could understand it roughly.

This time the demons attacked the tribe, and although Gu Zheng took action and killed them all in time, there were still casualties.

The placement of the dead, treatment of the wounded, construction of houses, and repair of walls must all be carried out immediately.

Dunmu Xitu needed to entertain Gu Zheng, so the others acted quickly after receiving the order.

Gu Zheng followed him into a wooden house, and a cup of special fruit tea in a wooden bowl was immediately brought in.

Dunmu Xitu entertained him warmly. Gu Zheng picked it up and took a sip.

It’s not bad. It is made by mixing a variety of wild fruits and then adding camellia to cook them. It has a slightly sweet taste and not much aftertaste, but it is easily absorbed and has a slight strength-enhancing effect on the human body.

Obviously, this kind of fruit tea is not available in large quantities and is only used to entertain distinguished guests.

Seeing Gu Zheng drink, Dunmu Xitu smiled even more, and then introduced Lord Shenchong.

"About a year ago, Lord Shenchong appeared nearby. Um~ Lord Shenchong likes fruit wine, so he came here for the wine."

"We thought we had been robbed at first. The fruit wine stored in the cellar and cave disappeared overnight. Then we brewed it again. Unexpectedly, it was stolen again."

"The third time we brewed it, we sent people to investigate from the dark, and we found that it was the God Bug that appeared and absorbed all the wine in one breath."

"But at first, we didn't dare to contact the Godworm Lord. We waited until the Godworm Lord left and found a special liquid where the Godworm Lord stayed. The liquid smelled very good. One soldier couldn't help but ate it. We were shocked at the time and thought the soldier was going to die."

"Who would have thought that the next day, this warrior had become stronger, and his physical strength had surpassed two levels."

"Since then, we have known the specialness of Lord Divine Insect. We specially brewed fruit wine to entertain Lord Divine Insect, and then took the 'divine liquid' left by Lord Divine Insect to strengthen ourselves."

"...As long as there is wine, the divine insect will come?" Gu Zheng asked when he heard this.

"Yes."

Dunmu Xitu nodded. "Lord Godworm can smell the wine and move. He can tell whether we have brewed wine even if he is hundreds of miles away. However, brewing fruit wine is inseparable from fruit. There are different fruits in the mountains all year round, but the brewing process takes at least a month. Therefore, Lord Godworm comes here basically once a month."

After a pause, Dunmu Xitu continued, "The last time Lord Shenchong came here was half a month ago. We have to wait half a month for the newly brewed fruit wine to be completed."

"It won't take that long. I have some wine."

Gu Zheng said this, waved his hand, and took out four wine jars from the storage bag.

Bang bang bang~
With a burst of strong energy, all the wine jars opened, and the aroma of wine with different flavors immediately filled the wooden house.

"This……"

Dunmu Xitu widened his eyes, sniffed, and couldn't help swallowing.

It smells so good!

The taste is different from fruit wine, but it is mellower and has a stronger aroma than fruit wine.

To put it simply, the degree is higher.

What's the alcohol content of fruit wine?

"Come, Chief, have a taste."

Gu Zheng smiled and waved his hand, drawing a stream of wine from one of the wine jars and dropping it into Dunmu Xitu's wooden bowl.

"Thank you, thank you King Gu."

Dunmu Xitu felt a little embarrassed and said gratefully, "Then I won't be polite, old man."

After saying that, he picked up the wooden bowl with both hands, took a small sip at first, his eyes quickly lit up, and the next moment, he swallowed the wine in big gulps, finishing it all in no time.

"Ha~~"

Dunmu Xitu, whose face was slightly flushed but whose eyes were bright, said excitedly, "Refreshing! King Gu's drink is strong and refreshing! Hahaha!"

"If you like it, have another bowl."

Gu Zheng waved his hand again, drawing out a stream of wine that fell into Dunmu Xitu's wooden bowl.

“Well, no…”

"Chief! Chief! It's bad, Qingshan is dying, you must go and see him!" A soldier suddenly shouted and ran into the house, calling anxiously.

As soon as I came in, I smelled the alcohol. I licked my tongue subconsciously, and my eyes fell on the four wine jars.

"what?"

Dunmu Xitu was shocked when he heard this. He stood up suddenly and didn't care about drinking anymore. "Come on, take me there quickly."

Thinking of Gu Zheng still being there, he looked embarrassed again, "King Gu..."

"go together."

Gu Zheng also stood up and said, "Maybe I can help. Just leave the wine here."

"Thank you, King Gu!"

Upon hearing this, Dunmu Xitu bowed in gratitude.

Seeing this, the soldiers who ran in followed suit and saluted.

"Let's go."

Gu Zheng nodded and walked out the door.

A group of three people rushed out quickly.

On the way, Dunmu Xitu introduced as he walked, "Qingshan is the first hunting chief of our Youyan tribe. He is also the one who has the greatest hope of breaking through to the Silver Moon level warrior in our tribe. During this demon attack, Qingshan stood in the front. Only after he fell did the demons break through the village wall. If he died, it would have a great impact on our morale."

Dunmu Xitu's face was full of worry, but his words seemed to have a hint of something.

Gu Zheng understood but did not respond.

Whether it can be saved depends on the situation.

Soon, under the guidance of the leading soldier, Gu Zheng came to a slightly larger wooden house.

In the room, the wounded tribesmen who were unable to walk were lying in a row, more than a dozen of them were lying or sitting on the long pit, no one was groaning or screaming. The three most seriously injured were lying in the middle, two of them were in a coma.

With his eyes open and breathing weakly, Qingshan, with a pale face, looked at a woman and a child, saying his final goodbyes.

"The patriarch is here."

"And the king from afar is here too!"

"..."

As soon as Dunmu Xitu entered the house, the people gathered around Qingshan immediately dispersed and retreated to the side.

An old woman with a medicinal smell all over her body looked ashamed and said in a low voice, "Chief, I'm sorry, Qingshan is too seriously injured, I can't save him."

"It's okay, Qingshan will be fine."

Dunmu Xitu comforted him and walked to the edge of Qingshan.

"Clan... leader..."

Qingshan raised his eyelids, looked at Dunmu Xitu, and said weakly, "Qing...Shan...will...leave...the...tribe...first..."

"Don't say anything, you'll be fine." Dunmu Xitu grabbed Qingshan's hand and squeezed it hard.

The woman beside him was sobbing quietly, and the child's eyes were also full of tears.

“Chief…No need…to comfort me…” Qingshan smiled weakly, “I…will go…”

"You're not going anywhere!"

Dunmu Xitu interrupted in a low voice, then turned around and knelt down facing Gu Zheng, "I beg King Gu to help me save my brave warrior."

Hearing this, everyone else was shocked.

But the next moment, he reacted and knelt down together.

Even if you are lying on a pit, you have to kneel on the bed.

"Don't thank me yet, let me take a look first."

Gu Zheng raised his hand, and an invisible force filled the entire room, lifting everyone up.

This move stunned everyone instantly, and they were both surprised and delighted.

What surprised me was how powerful Gu Zheng was, but what made me happy was that Gu Zheng might be able to save Qingshan!
Qingshan moved his eyes, looked at Gu Zheng who was approaching, and his lips moved.

Without waiting for him to speak, Gu Zheng raised his hand and emitted light, and the field of life covered Qingshan's body.

Originally, Gu Zheng wanted to take out a healing fruit directly, but thinking of the special nature of the life field, he decided to try it first.

This coverage was indeed found to be useful.

In the realm of life, all of Qingshan's injuries were clearly visible.

The fatal injury was a hole in the heart, and other organs were also ruptured, causing heavy bleeding. Broken bones were minor injuries.

In Gu Zheng's perception, the power of the life realm merely wrapped around the organs, and the organs showed signs of repair and self-healing.

At the same time, Qingshan's physical structure, which is different from the physique of the people of the Great Zhou, is also being sensed.

As a barbarian, his physique is undoubtedly strong. Gu Zheng carefully scanned this physical structure and found that it is particularly suitable for cultivation, but it cannot last long, which means it is easy to have a short life.

Thinking in his heart, Gu Zheng did not slow down and mobilized the power of the life field to repair Qingshan's damaged organs one by one.

Qingshan himself only felt that his body was sinking into a warm world, and the severe pain that had come from all parts of his body seemed to disappear at this moment.

He felt warm and comfortable and just wanted to sleep. Then, he really fell asleep.

Gu Zheng naturally noticed this, but he didn't stop and continued to mobilize the power of the life field to repair it.

Yes, repair and healing, not regeneration.

Two of Qingshan's toes were broken, and Gu Zheng was unable to make them grow back.

All I can say is that the life realm is not strong enough.

With the light flashing, the repair of organs and bones is completed.

Gu Zheng withdrew his hand, and the light faded, revealing Qingshan who was sleeping. His face was rosy, his breathing was even, and he was even snoring a little.

"All right."

Gu Zheng said calmly, "Lucky, Qingshan's..."

Wow~!

The other people around, including Dunmu Xitu and even the others in the pit, climbed up from the beds and got down to the ground. They all knelt down facing Gu Zheng and shouted.

"Greetings, Master Priest!"

Excitement appeared on everyone's face, and the eyes they looked at Gu Zheng were filled with respect, admiration, affection, and even fanaticism.

Compared to the previous "King from Afar", there is a world of difference.

Gu Zheng could naturally hear the difference and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Priest?"

"Yes, King Gu, we call those who control the power of life priests."

Dunmu Xitu replied, "The priests are the most knowledgeable and outstanding people among us wilderness people. They know all kinds of herbs, how to treat diseases, how to remove all kinds of poisons, and how to make all kinds of animals approach them. No matter which tribe, they all respect the priests very much."

"I didn't expect that King Gu is also a priest. Qingshan is so lucky."

Dunmu Xitu sighed.

He really felt that Qingshan was lucky. According to the past experience, Qingshan would have died without a doubt with such injuries.

As a result, he is not only alive now, but also sleeping soundly and snoring.

"Master the power of life? The realm of life?"

Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Every priest is a king?"

"Not the king."

Dunmu Xitu shook his head. "It is very difficult for a priest to master the power of life. I am not sure how it is obtained. Including how to become a priest, it also depends on personal qualifications. There may not be one among 100,000 people who can do it."

……Fine.

This "priest" seems a bit mysterious, and the life force he controls should not be the power of the domain.

It belongs to other ways and can only be obtained by taking different routes.

Gu Zheng gathered his thoughts and was about to treat the other injured people.

Suddenly, a breath of air was received, sensing a special existence entering the tribe.

"The God Bug is coming."

After leaving behind a few words, Gu Zheng disappeared from the spot.

In a flash, I returned to the previous wooden house.

There were four wine jars on the ground. On the mouth of one of the jars, there was a worm about ten centimeters long, light purple in color, with plump sections and a pair of long tentacles on its round head. It was facing the wine jar and sucking the wine through the air.

Gu Zheng suddenly appeared, scaring the insect.

But the next moment, the black gemstone-like eyes blinked and blinked.

Whoosh~!

After a flash of afterimage, the bug jumped onto Gu Zheng's shoulder, and its round head moved forward, rubbing against Gu Zheng's cheek.

Strange insect, Dionysus insect!

Under the effect of the "Lord of Insects" equipment, recognition of the master is completed instantly.

Gu Zheng understood the information about the Dionysus worm clearly.

In general, the ability of the Dionysus worm, as Dunmu Shitu said, is to absorb wine. It also likes to drink wine. After the wine enters its stomach, the Dionysus worm will excrete some of the liquid.

These liquids are the excess essence that overflows after the Dionysus worm absorbs wine and undergoes several changes in its body.

It's not excrement.

The effect is very powerful, it can increase supernatural powers, temper the body, and nourish the soul.

In ancient times, it was called "Holy Essence"! (End of this chapter)
