"Banquet?" Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Ren Jie.
"Yes, Ancestor God. Why don't I call that person over? He hasn't left yet and is waiting for my reply. "Ren Jie nodded.
"Lord Gu, I feel that the other party inviting you at this time is definitely up to no good. Those who come do not come with good intentions, and those with good intentions do not come. If I remember correctly, at that time, the protection period had just passed. If by any chance they were to make things difficult for you, you would have directly been surrounded by the other party," a person at the side said to Gu Zheng after hearing the news.
"Of course I know. I thought that the other party had endured for so long and wanted to play on their own. But it seems that they can't hold it in." Gu Zheng said playfully.
"Then what do you mean?" He Sheng couldn't understand Gu Zheng's specific thoughts and asked tentatively.
"Go, of course we're going. Go and reply to that person that we'll definitely attend the banquet. Otherwise, how can we find the slightest opportunity? You should know that we still need to merge the other party's tribe. This is the best opportunity for us to show our faces." Gu Zheng said to Ren Jie and explained to He Sheng.
This made He Sheng a little surprised. He didn't expect to merge the other party at this time.
"Yes!"
Ren Jie hurried down. He still had to reply to that person.
"The other party only invited the two of us. Won't it be too dangerous for us to go like this?" He Sheng said hesitantly.
"The two of us are enough. It's not like we have a falling out with the other party. How many people can we have?" Gu Zheng was full of information, but He Sheng's face was still a little worried.
Gu Zheng sighed in his heart. Perhaps it was because he hadn't gone out before. In short, even though He Sheng's cultivation was good, he was still held back by the mortal world.
In other words, he only had the heart to protect what he had and put more of his thoughts on the tribe.
However, he lived here, so this kind of thinking was not surprising.
"Get ready. We will go and meet the other party. Don't worry, I will take care of everything!"
.....
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. On this day, Gu Zheng brought He Sheng, who had finished his preparations, and flew directly to the south.
As for the neighbor, although the other party's strength was a generation more powerful than before, it seemed that there was also a kind of power that was tangled up. Not only did they not submit to him, they even went against him.
However, now that the protection period was over, Gu Zheng looked at the command medallion. Not only had his points increased, but the island seizing battle had also officially begun.
However, at the same time as the protection period ended, a green mist suddenly appeared above the stream. Anyone who approached the edge would instantly lose consciousness, as if a natural barrier had separated the two sides.
As such, Gu Zheng ordered some people to be on guard against the other side of the river. At the same time, the other side was also on guard against this side, watching the green fog disappear. However, the other side didn't seem to have any intentions of attacking. Instead, they sent their army in another direction.
It was as if the other side had the same idea as the other side. They wanted to combine all their forces and attack the other side together.
Half a day later, Gu Zheng and He Sheng slowed down and slowly descended.
At this moment, in front of a huge tribe, three people were already standing at the front, waiting very patiently.
"Lord Sun, do you think the other side won't dare to return at the critical moment?" Another man in the middle stage of Jin Xian next to him said.
"Gui Xi, don't be impatient. Can't you see that Miss Qinglian isn't anxious?" Lord Sun glanced at him and continued to snort.
"If they don't come, it means that they are afraid. That's even better!"
"They're here!" Qinglian suddenly said from the side.
At this moment, in the distance, two black dots had already appeared in their field of vision. They had discovered them and were slowly descending towards their position.
"This must be Senior Sun Weixin. I admire you so much. I haven't been able to visit you for a long time. Now, I finally have the chance!" Gu Zheng shouted at the other party as soon as he landed.
At this time, the information on both sides had been gathered over the years. There was nothing to hide.
"Fellow Cultivator Gu is also young and promising. I have also heard of you for a long time. That's why I invited you here as a guest." Sun Weixin also smiled and said to Gu Zheng.
"You flatter me, you flatter me. Since Lord Sun has invited me, why wouldn't I dare to come? I hope I'm not late!" Gu Zheng laughed and said to the other party.
Although the two of them were speaking so nicely now, who knew what they were thinking in their hearts? In any case, Gu Zheng couldn't wait to strangle the other party to death and then take over the other party's tribe.
"You've come at the right time. The inside has just been prepared. Please come in!" Sun Weixin chuckled and made an inviting gesture to Gu Zheng.
"Then I'll have to trouble you to lead the way!"
Gu Zheng and Sun Weixin walked in front and casually chatted with each other about unrelated topics. They looked happy and harmonious.
He Sheng and the two of them walked behind and followed without saying a word.
When they passed by their village, after several years of construction, except for the fact that it was a little messy, there was no Xifeng Cun. The place seemed to be in good order and seemed to be in a bad state.
On both sides, there were people constantly kneeling to send him off. They were also constantly calling out the Lord Ancestor God, which was very impressive.
Sun Weixin also intentionally or unintentionally mentioned their strength, as if he was showing off something.
When he saw a few children with tattered clothes running past him, especially when he compared them with the people who had seen some splendor just now, Gu Zheng laughed and said.
"Looks like your days aren't too good."
"It's okay. Anyway, it's fine as long as they don't starve to death. At this special time, there's no need to be so particular!" Sun Weixin said indifferently.
As soon as his voice fell, Gu Zheng could clearly feel the bodies of the two people behind him move slightly. Although it was so subtle that no one would notice, Gu Zheng had been observing them just now, so he understood in his heart that it was just like an investigation.
This Sun Weixin was taking care of their tribe. As for the two newly joined tribes, it could be said that they were in a state of exploitation. Other than those that had to be won over, all the supplies were reduced by a lot and subsidized to his own tribe.
On the contrary, it made his tribe a lot better. These people had no other choice. They had already merged, so they could only endure it for the time being.
He just didn't know how much benefit those two would get. Even if they weren't just passersby, it was still an invisible slap to their faces. After all, these people were part of their tribe a few days ago. Their lives were much better than now.
At this moment, suddenly from the kneeling crowd, a little girl who looked only three or four years old ran out of the crowd and knelt on their way forward, blocking their way. She raised her little head and wanted to say something, but when she saw Sun Weixin's terrifying eyes, she trembled and lowered her head, not daring to say anything.
Sun Weixin's face suddenly became gloomy. Before he could say anything, another daughter in shabby clothes rushed out from the side and hugged her daughter. She apologized loudly and wanted to take her daughter away.
But because of fear, she trembled and couldn't exert any strength. Just as she carried her daughter halfway, her body went limp and with a plop, she lost control and fell to the ground. Both of her arms were scraped, and even the legs of the little girl in her arms were injured. She couldn't help but cry.
"I'm sorry, ancestor God! Don't cry, don't cry, good girl, ancestor God is watching us, we can't offend him. "The mother quickly comforted her child.
"Humph!" Sun Weixin, who had lost face, snorted coldly. Just as he was about to call people to take them away, he saw Gu Zheng step forward and suppress the voice that was about to come out of his mouth. He wanted to see what Sun Weixin wanted to do.
He saw Gu Zheng step forward. He didn't care about the filth on the little girl's body at all and picked her up.
The sudden incident frightened the little girl. She even forgot the pain. Her eyes looked at Gu Zheng with some fear, not knowing what he was going to do.
Gu Zheng looked at the pair of clear eyes. Because of fear, she was constantly looking left and right. Her body was trembling unconsciously. Her timid expression was very pitiful.
Such a cute child, but half of her face was covered by some dust. At this time, Gu Zheng was extremely disappointed in Sun Weixin.
In this place, even if there was a shortage of living materials, it wasn't to this extent. It should be known that even if most people didn't use their points to exchange for things, it was too ruthless to deduct their points.
"Little girl, what's wrong? What do you want to say? " Gu Zheng said gently to the little girl. His words had the effect of calming her soul, calming her heart and making her not as scared as before.
"I want to ask ancestor god for some food. My grandfather hasn't eaten for two days. He gave me all the food at home. Now he is lying on the bed and can't move! I want my grandfather to play with me. "As the little girl spoke, her big eyes became hazy with tears. Tears wanted to fall from them again.
"How is that possible? Although the supplies are slightly controlled because of the war, after all, the journey is very long. But it shouldn't be to starve people to this extent!" Sun Weixin immediately said.
"Maybe her grandfather is too tired and needs to rest." Gu Zheng also pointed it out. Instead, he waved to He Sheng behind him, motioning him to come up. Then, he said to Sun Weixin.
"How about this? We're actually quite short of supplies, but you guys have even less than us. We're all humans, so we can't just stand by and do nothing. He Sheng, take out all your supplies, and I'll make up for it later."
"Lord Gu, if you didn't say that I wanted to apply to you, I can't just watch this happen." He Sheng said as he took out a bracelet and said to Sun Weixin.
"Lord Sun, can I express some of my feelings?"
Sun Weixin looked at the two of them echoing each other. At this time, how could he not understand? The other party had probably thought of this long ago. Even if there wasn't this little girl, they would deliberately find an excuse.
At this time, even if he didn't want them to do this, he had no choice but to agree. He could only pinch his nose and say helplessly.
"Of course, I can't thank you enough on their behalf!"
On the surface, he still looked touched, but in his heart, he was cursing the two of them. They were too good at buying people's hearts and making him embarrassed.
They wouldn't ask Sun Weixin what he thought. Previously, it was indeed the plan that Gu Zheng and He Sheng had discussed. Of course, they were clear about everything here. They were looking for an opportunity to buy people's hearts. Originally, they wanted to find a suitable opportunity. This opportunity that came to them was simply too cooperative.
When He Sheng heard this, of course, he wouldn't be polite. He immediately shouted to the side.
"All of you, make way. Make a big enough space for me!"
Of course, the people next to him heard Sun Weixin's words and hurriedly got up. They all made a big gap and looked at He Sheng with longing. They didn't know how many things the other party would bring them.
"It's far from enough. Expand this area by three times!" He Sheng looked at the large open space in front of him and frowned. He shouted to them again.
Everyone began to discuss amongst themselves. The area they had left behind was the size of half a soccer field. That was enough to store a lot of things. But from what he was saying, it was far from enough. Just how many things did he want to provide?
Of course, they didn't know that these things made He Sheng's heart ache. However, he clearly remembered that Gu Zheng said indifferently at that time.
"We may only have this one chance, so if we want to do it, we have to do it big. Besides, these things are not even 1% of our reserves. There will be an endless stream of things coming later. Don't worry about it!"
This degree of wealth was simply amazing to He Sheng. This kind of lifestyle was probably only affordable in the central area. Anyway, even in the past, he couldn't be so extravagant when he did missions.
Back to the topic, although the people here were suspicious, they still left enough space for them.
When He Sheng saw this, he took a few steps forward and stood at the edge.
With a wave of his hand, a dense colorful light appeared from his hand. Then, in the middle of the open space, dozens of things appeared out of thin air.
They were bundles of brocade cloth of various colors, all of which were brand new and had not been opened.
"Some of them can only be bought by Ancestor Gods. They are not usually distributed!" a sharp-eyed person shouted when he saw them.
By the time he finished speaking, the number of people had increased by more than ten times.
Everyone looked at He Sheng with burning eyes. Even Sun Weixin had disappeared from their eyes.
With every wave of He Sheng's hand, the dense fog he specially created became more dazzling and eye-catching. Different amounts of goods appeared on the open space.
This was also according to Gu Zheng's idea. There was no rush to take them out all at once. Taking them out bit by bit would instead shock them more.
Pairs of different things suddenly appeared on the ground, constantly stimulating their nerves.
In just a short hour, the originally empty ground was piled with all kinds of goods. They were even piled up to the height of an entire floor.
One had to know that these things were calculated according to the annual consumption of 30,000 people. Even if they were given to them, it would be enough for them to use for half a year. It could be said that he was very generous.
The faces of the two people following behind also darkened. Occasionally, a hint of passion flashed in their eyes.
Even Sun Weixin couldn't believe that the other party had taken out so many things. It was simply beyond his imagination.
Weren't they short on supplies just now? They were really too shameless!
When he saw He Sheng wave his hand, indicating that there was nothing left, he reacted and coughed slightly. It was like a thunderclap that resounded through the sky and attracted everyone's attention.
"I am very grateful to our friends. They actually gave us so many things when I asked for help. I thank you on behalf of everyone!" In one sentence, he forcibly took away half of the credit.
He directly attributed the reason why He Sheng gave them the supplies as a result of his request.
"Ancestor God!"
"Ancestor God!"
The cheers made Sun Weixin's ugly expression slightly better.
However, Gu Zheng didn't care about this at all. His original purpose was to let the other party see how rich they were. It was enough to leave a trace of a seed in their hearts.
Besides, although the crowd was shouting like this, some people were still looking at them with gratitude. Sun Weixin had no reason to keep these things. At least it would make them feel a little more comfortable for a while.
"Alright, I'll give you these things. Go back and give them to your grandfather to eat!" Gu Zheng casually took out some things and stuffed them into the little girl's hands. Then, he handed the little girl to the woman next to him who was at a loss.
When she saw that her child had returned, the woman seemed to come back to her senses. She hurriedly thanked him, turned around and hugged her child. In this short period of time, she was scared out of her wits.
"Thank you, big brother!" However, the little girl didn't seem to be affected by Gu Zheng's calming and comforting. Instead, she waved at Gu Zheng and smiled at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng also smiled in return, waving his hands at this cute little angel.
"Are you done? The food over there will be cold soon!" Seeing this scene, Sun Weixin said angrily.
"Of course, the guest follows the host's wishes. I'm waiting for you to lead the way." Gu Zheng's words made Sun Weixin anxious again.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to slap him to death on the spot. Only then did he walk in front.
However, after such a thing happened, he originally wanted to take Gu Zheng around to see their strength. Now, he wasn't in the mood at all. He directly led them through the crowd and walked towards the south.
Gu Zheng didn't care. He continued to talk and laugh with Sun Weixin along the way. It seemed that the matter just now didn't affect him at all.
Even if Sun Weixin was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to him at all, he still hadn't shed all pretense of cordiality. He could only talk casually. Obviously, there was no end to it.
Fortunately, they didn't say much and had already arrived at the place specially prepared for them.
On the edge of a higher cliff, a brand new table had been placed there. Below, there were endless waves. The sound of breaking waves constantly hit the side. Gusts of wind, mixed with the unique smell of fish, blew past everyone.
Especially when he looked at the boundless sea, a different feeling emerged in his heart.
Not far away, a bonfire was rising, and there was some food that had been prepared in advance. After receiving Sun Weixin's signal, they sat down and soon, plates of food were placed on the table, and a tempting aroma rose into the air.
"Thank you for giving me face. Let me give you a toast!"
As soon as the food and wine were served, Sun Weixin raised his cup and said to Gu Zheng and He Sheng. As soon as his voice fell, he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
The two people on this side also followed closely behind. They toasted Gu Zheng and drank it in one gulp. It was very refreshing!
