Seeing the other party's angry look, it seemed that the other party had saved him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such a big reaction.
When he saw that the other party was not followed, he immediately put down the person in his hand and removed the restriction on him.
"Cough cough." That person coughed twice. It seemed that he had used too much strength just now.
"I'm sorry. I just woke up and saw someone coming. In a hurry, I thought it was an enemy. I'm really sorry." Gu Zheng revealed a sincere smile and pretended that he had just woken up.
"What a coincidence. We just came back and you woke up." The person who was caught could not believe it. He stretched out his hand and said, "Brother, he's obviously lying. He wants to kill us. He's biting the hand that feeds him."
"Shut up. He's probably right." The brother glared at him and explained, "When you came, you didn't know that the door wasn't opened. If you want to leave, you can only leave through this door."
"Did you suddenly wake up here and stay here? What an idiot." It seemed like he was reprimanding his brother, but he also knew that if he really wanted to fight, the two of them were no match for him.
There was no need for the other party to lie. It could only be said that it was too much of a coincidence.
"I'm very grateful to the two of you for saving me. But I'm very curious why you saved me, a non-Sura, and even helped me sneak in." Gu Zheng knew that there was a formation outside. Anyone who was not an Asura would be detected.
Without permission, anyone who came in other than an Asura would be killed on the spot without mercy.
This was the formation hidden below. Although it had no effect on those at the Zenith Heaven Realm, a few of those at the peak of Jin Xian had already died.
Some of them were careless puppets, and some of them were abandoned people with wishful thinking.
So for them to help him, it could also be said that they had betrayed their race. Gu Zheng found it hard to understand why they would help the enemy.
How could something that harmed oneself and helped others happen to the Asura?
"Do you think we want to? Our ambush was very good and we had already succeeded. Who asked you to have this on you?" The brother said as he took out a shining gem from his waist.
"In the end, we found out that you were one of us."
"This is?" Gu Zheng remembered that he did not have this thing. The other party had saved him, so he definitely would not lie to him.
"Look inside carefully." The brother brought the gem closer to Gu Zheng to let him see it more clearly.
Gu Zheng looked through the smooth surface and vaguely saw a teardrop-shaped amber standing inside.
He touched his neck. He thought that this thing had been destroyed in the battle with Hua Long. He didn't expect that it was still hidden in his body.
"Otherwise, with this thing on your body, you would have become a corpse by now. How could you still show off in front of us?" The slightly thinner one snorted.
"Thank you so much, but I'm curious. Can you tell me the whole story?" Gu Zheng didn't expect the item to have such a use. Seeing the other party put the gem away, he couldn't help but ask.
.......... The brother ''s's's's...........................................................
..............'t....................
. But he didn't expect that Gu Zheng had no idea what this thing was...
. "Thank you. I still don't know your names. My name is Gu Zheng." Gu Zheng remembered and cupped his hands to thank them.
"You can call me fatty. He is my brother. Just call him skinny." The fatty was unwilling to tell him his name. He only told him his nickname.
"Speaking of which, we have to thank you. We can finally leave this place and travel outside. We have been waiting for this mission for tens of thousands of years."
The fatty's face was relaxed. There was even a yearning expression on his face. It seemed that he did not want to stay here at all.
"Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng." The skinny man muttered to himself. He stared at Gu Zheng. Suddenly, he stood up. His expression was very excited. He circled Gu Zheng a few times, making Gu Zheng confused.
"Have we met before?" Gu Zheng asked carefully. He had no impression of him at all.
"No, no." The skinny man quickly shook his head. He had long forgotten about the unhappiness from before.
"Then what are you so excited about?" His brother slapped the back of his head. He felt that his brother was a little abnormal today.
"Brother, he's Gu Zheng. Have you forgotten? He's the Gu Zheng that everyone was talking about when he challenged a Grand Heavenly Immortal." The skinny man quickly reminded his brother when he saw that his brother still hadn't remembered.
"I really didn't expect that." The fatty's eyes shone brighter. He was everyone's idol. Legend had it that he had killed a Grand Luo when he was at the peak of Jin Xian. It was done in front of everyone without any exaggeration.
Gu Zheng did not expect his deeds to be so ridiculous. Moreover, the two of them were his fans.
"That's not right. You are clearly not an Asura." The fatty thought for a while and suddenly said. When they saw Gu Zheng, he was clearly not an Asura.
Gu Zheng pointed at his body. The fatty was stunned for a moment before he quickly understood.
It was very likely to be a clever disguise. However, whether or not he was one of them did not affect their admiration for him.
That was the admiration for the strong. As long as he was not an enemy, it had nothing to do with race. Moreover, the other party had saved many people on their side. They were even happy that they had saved their idol. It was such a rare opportunity.
"Can you tell me how long I was unconscious?" Gu Zheng looked at them and decided to go back directly. His injuries were already healed.
"Almost a month. I'm also curious as to how you suffered such serious injuries." The fatty was also puzzled. When he saw him back then, he almost thought that he could not save him.
"There was an accident." Gu Zheng said vaguely. "Thank you very much. This is a small token of my appreciation. I still have things to do, so I won't stay here any longer."
Gu Zheng handed over some things. Although they were not very precious, he did not have many things on him. Those precious things could not be given away.
"No need, no need. This is our mission." The fatty waved his hand and said to the skinny guy beside him. Seeing that the skinny guy was still looking at Gu Zheng, the skinny guy was stunned.
"Don't be in a daze. Let's go."
The three of them walked out directly.
The skinny guy started chattering non-stop at the side, asking Gu Zheng all sorts of questions. He was very excited.
Gu Zheng could only be patient and talk to him. He did not expect the skinny guy to be so crazy.
"Oh right, how did you do that? Does it last for a long time?" Gu Zheng walked in the cave.
"This was given to us by the higher-ups. We don't know. Anyway, no one can tell. It is said that it can hide from the special envoy." Monkey thought for a moment. "I'm not too sure about the time. I remember it should be ten years. After such a long time, I wonder if its effectiveness has decreased."
"Isn't that right, brother?" The skinny guy was a little uncertain as he said to his brother.
His brother was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, there was a sudden earthquake outside.
The three of them stopped in their tracks and took a look. Then, they sped up and rushed out.
When they rushed out of the cave, a huge transparent light screen was erected in the air.
In Gu Zheng's eyes, it was all a light screen. It seemed to be blocking his way home.
"Could it be that they found out that I'm here and want to stop me?" Gu Zheng looked at the two brothers without batting an eyelid. The two of them were also shocked.
It should not be them. To use such a huge formation to deal with him, it was simply superfluous.
Gu Zheng rejected this idea in his heart. They had too many advantages before.
But who was it that caused such a huge commotion?
This light screen went straight to the clouds. It also protected the ground. If that was the case, the sky and the ground were surrounded, forming an inescapable net.
"How could it be activated?" The fatty took a deep breath with difficulty and said in bewilderment.
Even the skinny guy had a panicked expression on his face.
"What's going on?" Gu Zheng asked hurriedly. Why did he have a bad feeling in his heart?
"The two protectors activated the protective formation. This was set up by the old ancestor. The previous formation was just a part of it." The fatty's eyes were still looking into the distance, as if he did not dare to believe it.
"It will only be activated when the situation is dangerous. This means that someone can escape from here."
"Can I still go back?" Gu Zheng said with uncertainty. Why didn't he wake up a day earlier? Even a few minutes later would have been fine.
"Probably not for a long time. Moreover, this is a gathering order. Everyone has to give up on the mission at hand and return to the town."
The fatty shook his head. Then, he thought of something and said, "It's not impossible.
There should be a connecting talisman in the town that can open a gap for the clansmen outside to come in. "
"Oh right, Young Master Gu. Do you want to stay here and watch the situation develop, or do you want to come with us?" The fatty thought for a long time before he found a suitable address.
"This is one of our secret locations. Other than the two of us, no one can find it." “
Gu Zheng looked back. Behind him were dense trees. It seemed that the previous location should be near the edge. The cave he came out of had disappeared.
It was a very hidden natural cave. He did not know how they did it.
"How long do you think it will take to close the formation?" Gu Zheng asked with some anticipation.
"It's hard to say. It's completely up to the protectors. I didn't expect something like this to happen in just ten thousand years. Could it be that the previous incident was so serious that even the protectors suffered a little? Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this." The fatty said with a worried face.
This surprised Gu Zheng. If it continued for more than ten years and he stayed here, his disguise would lose its effect.
He was like a firefly in the night. It was as conspicuous as it could be.
He could not escape. He could only wait for death. Unless he hoped that the formation would be closed or broken.
However, this was set up by the old ancestor. How could it be broken so easily?
Gu Zheng even suspected that the old ancestor had guessed Elder Xiong's thoughts and set up this formation specifically to make them despair.
The three of them walked towards the edge of the light curtain. They walked to the side of the road and came to the bottom of the light curtain.
The light curtain was like flowing water. There were slight ripples. It felt like a living thing.
Gu Zheng touched it lightly. It felt soft and cold on the outside. However, if he moved forward a little, he would instantly feel that the inside was incomparably hard.
He estimated the defensive strength of the light curtain. In terms of strength, it was not as heaven-defying as imagined. This made Gu Zheng feel slightly relieved.
It had not reached the level of a Quasi-Sage. The light curtain's range was so bright that it seemed to have covered the entire southern region.
Elder Xiong was at the peak of the Grand Luo Realm. In addition to her companions, if they attacked in a hurry, there was a high chance that they could break through.
This was because the people here would not let the other party break through. They would definitely retaliate.
"I'll go back with you. To be honest, no one can see through this flaw of mine." Gu Zheng decided to go back with them. He might have a chance to come out. He said jokingly.
"Don't worry. The person who gave us this said that it can definitely conceal your aura." The skinny man patted his chest and guaranteed.
"That's good. I believe in you. Instead of waiting here, why don't I tour this place with you? You must know that I'm the first outsider to enter this place." Gu Zheng said jokingly.
Then, he wiped his face and changed the shape of his face. This way, no one would be able to recognize him.
Thanks to Pan Xuan's guidance, his transformation was quite decent.
At least, he would not be recognized immediately.
"I know. Lord Gu, you're afraid that others would recognize you. I heard that someone was spreading bad news about you." The skinny man explained on behalf of Gu Zheng.
"Everyone seems to be saying that you're a spy. However, I've been too busy recently. I didn't listen carefully." The fat man frowned and thought for a moment. However, he relaxed immediately. "I forgot. You're a spy."
Gu Zheng was speechless and did not reply. He had to be more careful and keep a low profile.
However, the two of them were very relieved. If there was anything inconvenient for him, he could entrust them to do it.
The three of them rushed towards the west at full speed. Three days later, they had arrived at the outskirts of the town.
There was not much difference between them and the puppets. However, they looked clean and tidy overall. Beside the orderly roads, there were various houses.
Every house used the same spatial folding technology. From the outside, it looked like a small house.
There was a tall tower in the middle. It was very eye-catching. The envoy usually stayed there. If there was anything, he would go to the first floor to talk to the envoy.
Along the way, the two brothers had already told them some things to take note of. They did not want him to give himself away.
First of all, it was strictly forbidden to destroy the buildings. No matter what happened, it was not allowed. Otherwise, if they dared to leave, they would never be able to enter again.
In addition to the special situation now, no one would dare to commit a crime. Many places were under martial law. Without the envoy's token, no one could pass through.
The teleportation formation was already closed. If they were left outside, it would be a big joke.
There were other miscellaneous things that Gu Zheng remembered in his heart. This was very important, especially at a time like this. Even the slightest mistake could be discovered.
Perhaps there were many dark eyes inside, staring at everyone.
"Young Master Gu, if there is anything, go to the east area. We are in room 75. You can wait for us there. There are still some Flame Dragon Stones here. Don't mind it."
Fatty and the others had to report to the assembly point. They could only part with them here.
"No need. I still have some. It's enough for me. If I need them, I will look for you." Gu Zheng politely blocked their hands.
He still had a lot of them. They were given to him by Pan Xuan. He did not know how much he had taken advantage of Pan Xuan. Suddenly, he remembered that he had taken a lot of things from Pan Xuan.
He did not know where she was now. His identity had been exposed. There would be some people who would believe him. He hoped that he would not bring her trouble. He even hoped that she would leave this place. Unfortunately, the teleportation formation was mysteriously closed.
However, Elder Xiong and the others did not know. He could not send them any messages. No wonder the envoy was so anxious and activated the protection formation.
Ninety-five percent of the people here were trapped here, unable to advance or retreat.
After Gu Zheng separated from them, he continued to walk towards the southwest.
This place could be divided into four areas. The center tower was the border.
The north side was the training ground. Usually, the patrol team would be stationed there for a long time. It was also their assembly point. Those who were not on patrol were not allowed to enter.
The east side was where they rested. Unless they had something to ask of them, most people would not go there.
This was because there were dozens of people in the patrol team. There were more than the people resting here.
These people were all sent out by the resistance. They could apply for a change every once in a while. They had more contributions here. Many of them had been here from the beginning to the end.
The south side was where the teleportation formation was. It was a straight line and there was nothing else.
The west side was where the others stayed. It was also the largest and most prosperous area. All the entertainment here was here. It was also the assembly point.
Under normal circumstances, everyone would come here for a drink or two. There was also a specially built arena at the side.
At the same time, there was also simple accommodation. However, the expenses here were relatively cheap. Most people could afford it.
Even the people who worked here would be given some Flame Dragon Stones to let them rest when they were free.
Although the other places were filled with grass and rivers, the environment was very beautiful. There were also some small hills that stood tall.
If a hermit saw this, he would definitely want to live here for the rest of his life. How pleasant would it be?
However, even in a good environment, there had to be people who appreciated it. People here did not like to stay outside all day and moan to the air. Most of them liked to talk loudly in the taverns. If they did not like the look of it, they would go and fight.
Otherwise, they would meditate and cultivate in their residences. Very few people had the time to go outside.
At this time, beside a small stream, a figure was sitting there in a daze. There was also a figure on the flowers and plants nearby. From time to time, she would bend down and pick delicate flowers from the ground.
"Miss Pan, look at how beautiful the flower wreath I made for you." A clear voice sounded from the side, interrupting Pan Xuan's thoughts.
