"Elder, where are we going next? Do you want me to go back and get some help? "
While Gu Zheng was hunting for black cores, Elder Shu and Elder Lin had also arrived. Looking at the dense crowd, Elder Lin couldn't help but say, "Don't worry.
With just the two of them, it would be difficult to find the other party even if the other party was an ordinary person. Hence, he asked.
"What's the point of going back and getting two more people? Besides, our men are waiting for the water monster to come and see what's going on. So, it's just the two of us," Elder Shu refuted.
Elder Ling didn't say anything else. He was thinking of a way to find the other party. Who asked the higher-ups to make concessions? Those who could be freed were all out of control. Anyway, in his opinion, it was useless. Instead, it would only cause more trouble.
Elder Shu had no other way. He frowned slightly and led Elder Ling to look around to see if they could find any useful information.
Half a day passed and the two of them walked around aimlessly. Their eyes were constantly scanning the surroundings. However, how could they find the other party with such a simple method?
"I have an idea that doesn't really count as an idea," Elder Ling suddenly said.
"What is it?" Elder Shu asked curiously.
"If the other party wants to leave here, they must gather in that area. There are only two entrances there. We can each guard one of them and patrol carefully. We are familiar with Wei Wufang. We will definitely recognize him as soon as he appears," Elder Ling said. "That's a good idea. Let's go.
When it's about to start, we'll go and guard it. However, it's useless to go now. No one can enter. Let's look around in case there are traces of the other party. After all, the person from the Black Prison isn't familiar with the situation here. Even with Wei Wufang's help, it's very likely that he'll give himself away. "Elder Shu nodded. He felt that Elder Ling's idea was good.
"I'll think about it. There must be a better idea." Elder Ling looked around and found that they had unknowingly arrived at the hunting ground. He couldn't help but suggest again.
"Why don't we take a break first? I'll go around and ask around. If the other party gives himself away, these people will more or less know something. It's better than us wandering aimlessly like this."
"If you want to ask around, just go there and ask some people. Let's go." Elder Shu also felt that it was a good idea to ask around.
Elder Shu was going to do what he said. He sped up and walked inside. Soon, they arrived at a lively place. It was a relatively large square. It was also considered a bustling place.
When she arrived, she happened to see a group of people coming out. Without saying a word, she walked over. The faintly discernible aura of her body immediately attracted the attention of the group of people. They looked at Elder Shu nervously, but they were not afraid. There were strict rules here. If they wanted to break the rules, they would have to see if they could withstand the anger of the City Lord.
"Let me ask you something. When you came out, did you encounter anything strange?" . "Elder Shu didn't talk nonsense. He directly took out the warrant and showed it to the other party.
As the city lord's warrant, most of the people here recognized it. Seeing this, they were stunned. They obediently followed Elder Shu to the side. Hearing Elder Shu's question, most of them were stunned.
"Strange things?"
"What strange things? Isn't it just a monotonous life back and forth?"
"Speaking of which, that person seems to have died in there. He seems to have been framed to death. This matter is quite strange."
These people expressed their own opinions. There were all kinds of opinions, but there was no news that Elder Shu wanted to know.
The other party's messy words made the already angry Elder Shu's face turn ugly. When everyone saw this, they gradually shut their mouths.
"Don't talk about the past. Just talk about what happened today. Is there anything strange?" Elder Ling said quickly.
"Today, I don't think so. After we came out, we came out after a little rest. I really didn't pay much attention." The leader thought for a moment and said.
"Forget it, you guys can go." Seeing that the other party didn't know anything, Elder Shu waved his hand and prepared to let them leave. He wanted to ask others.
"Wait, you come out." Elder Ling wasn't as impatient as Elder Shu. He saw that in the crowd, there was someone who wanted to say something but didn't stand out. He immediately pointed at that person.
"Yes, it's you."
Following Elder Ling's guidance, a middle-aged man who looked more honest walked out.
"Just now, I saw that you had something to say. Did you see what happened today?" Elder Ling smiled and asked the other party not to be so nervous.
"When I was resting today, I saw Bi Chen walk in happily with two people. Because the two of them weren't wearing protective clothing, I took a second look. I don't know if it counts," the middle-aged man said slowly as he thought.
"Do you know what those two people looked like?" Elder Shu interrupted and asked.
"I don't know. I only saw their backs." This time, he answered quickly because he wanted to see what the other party looked like.
"Why do you think their actions are a little strange? If it's really a useful clue, you will get the reward you want." Elder Ling went straight to the point. In order to encourage the other party, he was even prepared to pay a big price.
His companions next to him all held their breaths. They wanted to see how this person, who usually has a low presence in the team, discovered the other party. Most of them knew Bi Chen. After all, they often hung around here. Most of them moved with their friends and didn't cooperate with anyone else. He was quite unique.
"It's because I haven't seen Bi Chen's companions for a long time, and they often appear outside. Sometimes, they would sit there alone, looking at the things in front of them, but they didn't go in. This time, they went in with other people. That's why I thought it was a little strange." The middle-aged man still spoke at a leisurely pace. The anxious Elder Shu wanted to pry open the other party's mouth.
"If that's the case, then that's the case. Bi Chen and his friends are close friends. Why would he be alone? Could it be that his friends are dead?" Another person said in realization.
"Yes, and there are two of them without any protective gear. That's rare. It's more or less able to conceal some of their presence and resist the corrosion of the blood mist. It's also very cheap. Almost everyone has one. It's been a long time since I've seen one."
"I have some impression of those two people."
"Then when did they go in?" Elder Ling's spirits were lifted and he immediately asked.
His intuition told him that those two people were the people they were looking for. Judging from the other party's speed, they should have gone in around the same time.
One had to know that no matter how one hid in the city, there would always be some figures or traces of their presence. However, inside the city, one could just find a place to hide and hide one's presence. Even if they passed by, they wouldn't be able to detect it. There was no better place to hide than there.
"Just half a day ago." At this time, the leader of the team spoke. He had to make his presence known.
"It's about time. Let's go in and ask. Here's your reward." Elder Ling looked at the time and became more and more certain. He directly threw out some things, and the other party left happily.
Some useless information in exchange for so many things. They had risked their lives for more than ten days. It was too worth it.
"Elder Lin, you're really something. No wonder you're the smartest one in our clan. After a while, the clan leader will go to the Hundred Alliance. At that time, it will definitely be you." Elder Shu praised from the side.
"You're too kind. All of this is because of you, Great Elder. Otherwise, we wouldn't have such good days. Let's hurry over now. Perhaps we can find more clues." Elder Ling continued.
"Yes, yes. We have more important things to do now. Let's go in and ask. I also think that he has been here before." Elder Shu smiled.
As they entered, they quickly found Wei Wufang's presence. Even if the other party was a monster in the air, he still gave himself away. This made the two of them even happier. They felt that their luck was really good. They directly found the other party's whereabouts.
.....
Bi Chen, who was slowly waiting for death, was thinking about his life. The rocks around him had completely buried him. He didn't know when the surroundings had stopped shaking, but he didn't feel it at all. He only felt that his body's imprisonment was getting stronger and stronger. His mind was blank, and he could die at any moment.
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, a sharp rock fell from above and landed on his calf. He shouldn't have felt any pain, but he felt an unbearable pain, and he unconsciously curled up.
After only two breaths, his whole body stiffened. The next moment, he got up and knocked away the rocks that buried him. A tunnel was directly opened, and he carried his friend's corpse out from below. Then, he carefully began to move through the ruins.
Most of the underground space was already broken, but at least there were some ways to leave. As for digging up, that would take too long. There were also some sturdy formations above, so it was almost impossible.
He just wanted to leave this place. He was afraid that the other party would find out that he wasn't dead and give him the final blow.
When he reappeared on the surface, he suddenly felt that the blood-red sky was so beautiful. He had never felt so close before.
At this time, he also understood why he had been saved. He had broken free from the other party's imprisonment.
It was that stone that fell down by chance that might have broken the seal, allowing him to escape the slow descent of death.
"You want me to die in despair, but I'm lucky. I'll remember you. If I get the chance, I'll take a bite out of you."
Bi Chen's heart was filled with hatred. He knew that the difference in strength was too great, so he could only bury it deep in his heart and wait for an opportunity to take revenge in the future. No matter how great the other party's background was, he would still take revenge. He would start with the other party's people and let them know that they had to bear the consequences of trying to kill him.
Although he didn't know the name of that person, he knew his follower.
Wei Wufang!
Holding that huge hatred, he put away that precious inheritance and buried his friend's corpse. After muttering to himself for a while, he walked towards the exit.
"Sir, why are you doing this?"
In a place where Bi Chen couldn't see, Gu Zheng and Wei Wufang stood together. After seeing that the other party had completely left, Wei Wufang asked.
Because all of this was a good show directed by Gu Zheng. The imprisonment at the beginning and the release of the imprisonment at the end were all done by him. However, in Wei Wufang's opinion, other than making the other party hate him even more, there was no other benefit.
"Whether or not we can leave this place successfully depends on the other party buying time for us." Gu Zheng didn't explain. He looked at Wei Wufang meaningfully.
Although it wasn't a 100% chance of attracting the other party, it would definitely cause the other party more confusion. No matter what, it was a huge benefit for them.
"Let's go. Next, we need to find a group that can let us leave. Only then will it be safer."
While Wei Wufang was still thinking about the meaning of Gu Zheng's words, Gu Zheng had already turned around and walked in another direction. He could only follow behind and ask him after leaving this place.
"Elder Shu, I've asked many people. They all saw those two strange people. Although their faces have changed, they can be sure that they are Wei Wufang and the escaped Mirror Demon. Many people saw them enter with Bi Chen. What should we do next?"
At the intersection of two different places, Elder Lin said to Elder Shu.
With the City Lord's warrant, they didn't have any obstacles here and easily obtained the information they wanted. Coupled with their diagnosis, they were finally completely sure of the other party's identity.
"It's really as Elder Lin said. Even if we turn the sky upside down outside, we won't be able to find them. However, we can see that the other party is really smart."
Elder Shu first praised the other party before informing him of her arrangements.
"Since that's the case, there isn't much time left before we leave again. Go and contact the City Lord to change the entrance and exit of this place. The City Lord will definitely agree within a few days. Also, bring some experts over and wait for the other party to come out."
"What if the other party doesn't come out?" Elder Lin instantly understood what she meant and said.
"If they don't come out, isn't that good? Do you think they will stay in there forever? Even if I have to wait for thousands of years, I will wait for them to come out. It would be better if they die in there, "Elder Shu said coldly.
The world over there wasn't a place where one could stay forever. After a long time, one might be assimilated into the world and become a monster.
The stronger one was, the longer one could stay in there. Even Elder Shu could only stay in there for a few thousand years. Not to mention, there were some existences that even she didn't dare to provoke.
These monsters naturally wanted to devour them. This was their instinct. Therefore, staying in there was both a danger and an experience.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go now." Elder Lin nodded and immediately rushed outside. After leaving here, he directly flew up and sped up to meet the City Lord.
Without the token to protect him, the array formation in the air would immediately be activated. Even he would be torn to pieces if he did so.
Elder Shu continued to stay here. Even if the other party's information was almost all gathered, it was impossible for the other party to come out in such a short time. Some people were even scattered in different places. Once the other party came out, he definitely wouldn't be able to escape their eyes.
The reason she was confident was that the other party wouldn't know that she had found out about their whereabouts so quickly. If she put herself in their shoes, she wouldn't have noticed either. Such a covert operation was actually so fast.
Just as she was looking around carefully, there was a sudden commotion in the distance. Soon, two people walked towards her with a person under their control. She could clearly recognize that the two people who were escorting the unfamiliar young man were the two people she had just recruited. They were sent to watch over there. What was the meaning of escorting a stranger?
"Elder, this is Bi Chen."
Perhaps seeing her doubts, one of them immediately spoke when they came over.
"Who are you? What did I do wrong? Why are you arresting me? "
Bi Chen didn't expect that he would be surrounded by a group of people who wanted to take him down as soon as he appeared outside. At that time, he was angry, so he naturally resisted a little. Now that he was in a sorry state, how could he block so many people? After seeing Elder Shu, he said angrily.
His anger was soaring!
Elder Shu could naturally feel the anger in his heart. However, she didn't care about him. She directly let the other party's aura envelop him. Immediately, Bi Chen became obedient. He didn't have the slightest bit of confidence when facing a Grand Luo. He tactfully lowered his head and cooperated.
Seeing the other party's cooperation, Elder Shu nodded in satisfaction and asked directly, "The two people who went in with you, where did they go?"
If that person came out, he wouldn't have just captured Bi Chen. He would have informed her immediately.
"That damned person and that Wei Wufang." Hearing this, Bi Chen's eyes suddenly turned red and he couldn't help but curse.
"What's wrong? Where is the other party now? "Hearing Wei Wufang's name, Elder Shu's eyes lit up. She immediately knew that she had found the person.
"The other party almost killed me. If it weren't for my good luck, I would have died in there."
After waiting for a while, Bi Chen calmed himself down and told the story. Of course, he didn't tell the other party his real purpose. He only told the other party that he did it for a friend. He didn't leave out anything about what happened after that.
"So that's the case. Come with me."
Although Bi Chen revealed his true feelings, Elder Shu couldn't completely trust him. She instructed the others to continue watching. If the other party came out, they were to follow him and not attract his attention. She entered the place where Gu Zheng and the others disappeared with Bi Chen.
Half a day later, she and Bi Chen returned. When they saw his friend's corpse, they once again sensed Wei Wufang's aura and the Mirror Demon's aura. She was sure that he wasn't lying.
After knowing that the other party didn't come out, she asked Bi Chen to stay here and help her identify the other party. Bi Chen couldn't have asked for more. The other party probably didn't expect him to still be alive. He just needed to disguise himself a little and it would be enough.
"Elder Shu, the City Lord has agreed. He also asked me to bring more people with me. All of them will listen to our orders."
At this moment, Elder Lin also brought a group of people here.
"This time, let's see how you can leave."
After giving the order, Elder Shu thought to herself.
