Song Qian was at a loss. He rubbed his leg that had just been hit by the villagers' poles and asked, "Are you all okay? They didn't hit you? "
Gu Xizhou curled his lips into a smile. "Because I beat them up first."
Song Qian was speechless.
Song Qian's mind was a mess. He was already imagining 'police brutality', 'police hitting people', 'police beating up villagers', and other headlines that might appear on the internet or on the news. He gulped and patted Gu Xizhou's shoulder.
The people around them seemed to have thought of something and sighed silently. When there were hundreds or thousands of people breaking the law in an area, the law would lose its effectiveness. Just like this time, although it was a provincial operation, the villagers who bought the kidnapped women were not punished.
In the eyes of the law, these people were all criminals and should be sentenced to prison.
Gu Xizhou looked at his hesitant expression and said calmly, "I hit them alone. I'm not like you guys. Why, can't I quit being a police officer? At most, I'll just resign. "
Gu Xizhou thought that if he was really asked to leave because of this, Gu Zhizhi would definitely have nothing to say. After he finished speaking, the surrounding people's eyes fell on him in unison, and they couldn't help but look at him with reverence.
Everyone was present, and the team did not stop. The leaders of the various criminal police teams had a discussion. They were worried that something might happen if they stayed too long, so they drove out of Taishan County that night.
The car sped along. Gu Xizhou sat in the back and did not say anything. He recalled the first day he was summoned. The array formation was obviously used to summon evil spirits from another world. He had also turned Gu Zhizhi's house upside down. There was nothing related to ghosts in Gu Zhizhi's house.
Gu Xizhou's head hurt.
At night, the motorcade drove to the designated location. The car slowly stopped. The entrance was already filled with people. Most of them were here to take their children home. Some of them had been waiting here since yesterday.
After the convoy stopped, men and women hugged and cried could be seen everywhere. Gu Xizhou rubbed his forehead and got out of the car. Beside him, Song Qian and Fang Zhi also got out.
After one of the policemen got out of the car, he lit a cigarette and leaned against the car. He held the cigarette between his index and middle fingers and puffed out a cloud of smoke. His eyes were looking straight ahead. He reached out and handed a cigarette to Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou smiled and waved his hand. "No, I don't smoke."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Zhi, who was next to him, was stunned. He looked at Gu Xizhou in disbelief. He remembered that Gu Ge was a heavy smoker, especially when he was under great pressure. Two or three packs of cigarettes a day were not enough. He even ran errands to buy cigarettes for Gu Ge. Thinking about it carefully, he realized that Gu Ge had not smoked in front of him recently.
"This isn't like you at all. Captain Gu actually doesn't smoke." The few companions around him were slightly stunned.
"…" Gu Xizhou frowned and continued, "I went to see the doctor a while ago. The doctor didn't allow me to smoke. It's not good for my lungs."
"I see. I knew it. Captain Gu, if you can quit smoking as an old smoker, then can't we all quit smoking? Hahahaha. "
Gu Xizhou: "…" He almost exposed himself. Gu Zhizhi was a heavy smoker!
The people around them were crying. Gu Xizhou took out his phone and looked down at the time. It was almost six o 'clock. He decided to go home first. He had ignored Gu Zhizhi for a few days. He did not know if Gu Zhizhi had thought it through and if he should tell him the truth!
Perhaps seeing that Gu Xizhou was about to leave, the girl who left with the child noticed Gu Xizhou and walked towards them with her family.
The girl's eyes were red. She thanked them softly and said in a sobbing tone, "Thank you."
The group of people who were smoking could not say anything. However, Gu Xizhou looked at the girl and frowned. He asked, "What do you plan to do with this child?"
The girl was caught off guard for a moment. Then, she seemed to calm down and said, "I can take care of him."
"Young lady, have you really thought it through? Have you thought it through? "
One of the female police officers was slightly stunned and asked softly.
"Yes!" The girl nodded firmly. The people around her could not say anything else. The atmosphere became a little tense.
Gu Xizhou patted the girl's shoulder.
After Gu Xizhou let go, the girl seemed to be comforted and thanked him twice.
Gu Xizhou waved his hand and turned to leave the group. He walked to the side of the road and casually hailed a taxi to go home.
Standing below Gu Zhizhi's house, Gu Xizhou glanced upstairs. He shook his head and took the elevator upstairs. He stood at the door for a moment, but did not hear any movement inside. After thinking for a while, he used the key to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Gu Xizhou saw the situation at home. His face instantly darkened. "…"
"Gu Zhizhi! Are you a Husky? Do you specialize in tearing down homes?! "
"…"
When Gu Xizhou opened the door, he was shocked silly by everything in front of him. The glass dining table in the dining room was directly smashed. The pillows on the sofa and the cloth sofa itself were all destroyed. The furniture and appliances were not intact. The chairs and stools on the floor were smashed, and the wooden floor was cracked.
In the entire living room, only the stool in front of him was intact. The moment Gu Xizhou opened the door, the stool instantly moved back with a creak, as if someone had stood up from the stool.
Gu Xizhou said to the air, "F * ck, I just didn't come back for three days and you tore down the house?"
"…"
Gu Xizhou said, "Are you angry?"
"…"
"Are you scared?" Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and closed the door behind him. He cleared his throat as if he had caught someone's tail. His chin was slightly raised, and he looked a little proud.
"As long as you tell me how you summoned me, why you summoned me, and how you can still exist after death, I will …"
Bang!
The bedroom door was forcefully pushed open, and it directly hit the wall. Gu Xizhou: "…"
"Don't think that I will stay just because you are angry. If you don't explain things clearly, haha, then goodbye. I will resign and leave at any time. We will never see each other again. You can stay here forever. See if I will come back to see you!" Gu Xizhou's lips curled.
Gu Xizhou guessed that Gu Zhizhi must have gone into the bedroom to get a pen. He followed in and saw that the pen was indeed writing at a fast speed.
Gu Zhizhi: I thought you were not coming back. Why do you still want to stay in my house? Why do you still want to stay?
Gu Xizhou: "…" That was a little true.
Gu Zhizhi: "Noob devil cultivator, remember the time."
Gu Xizhou was stunned when he saw these words. He instinctively took out his phone. It was 7: 14 in the morning. "What's wrong?"
Gu Zhizhi: "Noob devil cultivator, look at the time again."
Gu Xizhou waited for a long time. Gu Zhizhi did not say anything, but asked him to look at the time again. However, when Gu Xizhou looked down at his phone this time, he was stunned.
The time was 7: 44 in the morning.
What was going on? His time was shortened by half an hour? Was Gu Zhizhi up to something?
As Gu Xizhou was thinking this, he instinctively looked at the red countdown timer in the air. Half an hour had passed, just like his phone. Gu Zhizhi might be able to fake the time on his phone, but Gu Xizhou believed that Gu Zhizhi did not have the ability to do so.
Gu Zhizhi: "Do you understand?"
Gu Xizhou: "Understand what?"
Gu Zhizhi: "Idiot devil cultivator."
Gu Xizhou: "…"
Gu Zhizhi: "Noob devil cultivator."
Gu Xizhou: "… If you scold me again, I'm going to flip out!"
Gu Xizhou felt that Gu Zhizhi was being ridiculous. Why was he scolding him for no reason? Just as the irascible devil cultivator was about to argue with Gu Zhizhi on the street, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and heard a clear voice on the other end of the line. "Bring Fang Zhi and come find me. Prepare for the next world."
Gu Xizhou looked at the time. Fang Zhi's life was almost up. Gu Xizhou was helpless. "Forget it, I'm not going to argue with you today. Trash Gu Zhizhi, you husky."
Gu Xizhou called Fang Zhi as he tidied up his dumpster like home. "Fang Zhi, rest well. I'll come and pick you up. Find Si Yu and enter the mission world."
"Okay, Gu Ge," Fang Zhi said.
Gu Xizhou drove to pick up Fang Zhi and drove to Si Yu's designated location.
It was a wealthy villa area in the suburbs. Each villa was worth over a hundred million yuan.
When Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi arrived, Si Yu was wearing a white sportswear and was leisurely eating breakfast. He was playing light music and casually flipping through the newspaper in his hand. When he saw Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi, he nodded casually at them.
"Bring the laptops over." Si Yu pointed at the laptops beside him.
Fang Zhi retracted his gaze from Si Yu's mansion and quickly brought two laptops over. He placed them on the long table in front of him.
"Open the first forum in your browser's favorites folder. The password is * * * * *. Take a look at the content." Si Yu picked up a glass of milk and said indifferently, "This forum was created by people who participated in the mission world. It relies on word of mouth in the mission world. The content inside is enough for you two newbies to gain experience and understand the mission world in a short period of time."
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi thanked Si Yu and entered the forum's homepage. There were many excellent posts on the homepage.
The more newbies a world had, the more restrictive the rules and death conditions would be. The fewer newbies a world had, the more restrictive the death conditions would be. Furthermore, most of the newbies' worlds had logic to speak of. Some worlds had no logic at all. Compared to Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi's previous experiences where they had killed the monsters and left through a wooden door, the new worlds were more about escaping.
There were many veterans looking for newbies on the forum, mainly to freeload off the life time rewards from the simpler worlds. No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still a piece of meat.
Therefore, there were many veterans looking after newbies. Of course, there was a fee for this. Gu Xizhou looked around for a while and roughly understood the situation.
Gu Xizhou then looked at Si Yu and asked, "You don't charge for this, right?"
Si Yu glanced at him and pointed at his luxurious mansion that was as gorgeous as a palace. His meaning was obvious: "You poor b * stard, do you have the money to pay me?"
Gu Xizhou was speechless.
Waiting for the countdown was actually quite torturous. Gu Xizhou could vaguely sense Fang Zhi's nervousness. He patted Fang Zhi's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't be nervous. We're all in this together. Don't be afraid."
"Okay …" Fang Zhi hummed, but he was still very nervous.
Gu Xizhou looked at Fang Zhi and sighed. Poor little policeman. He was actually not as unlucky as him. His transmigration this time could be said to be a complete failure! Although the previous transmigration was quite miserable at the beginning, this time …
Anyone would be nervous if they knew when they were going to die, right?
The three of them sat on the sofa and waited for a while. Gu Xizhou glanced at the time and estimated that Fang Zhi's countdown was about to end. He said, "Well … let's hold hands first."
"Okay."
Soon, the countdown ended. After a familiar trance, Gu Xizhou's mind seemed to have grasped something. This feeling was very similar to … the feeling when Gu Zhizhi asked him to look at the time … the feeling.
Gu Xizhou was stunned.
He had lost half an hour. Perhaps it was not that he had lost time, but that he had lost the memory of that half an hour!!!
Gu Zhizhi might have said something!
But he had forgotten!
That was why Gu Zhizhi asked him if he understood!
"Why are you in a daze?" Si Yu entered the door and looked at Gu Xizhou with a frown.
Gu Xizhou turned his head and opened his mouth. He looked around and saw that there were students wearing school uniforms everywhere. They were walking on a small path paved with gravel. When he looked back, he saw that the school had just ended and the students were walking out in twos and threes.
Gu Xizhou knew that they had already entered the mission world. It was best to put aside Gu Zhizhi's matter. After all, there were too many strange rules in the mission world. Even if he was a Demon Cultivator, he would still die. After all, there was a power stronger than him in this world.
Gu Xizhou and Si Yu looked at each other and changed their appearances. Si Yu and Fang Zhi both looked like seventeen or eighteen years old high school students. They were both wearing blue and white school uniforms. Gu Xizhou looked down at the same uniform he was wearing and guessed that he looked the same.
Two teachers from the school seemed to recognize them. They frowned and said, "It's seven days of National Day. The three of you shouldn't think about going out to play. Hurry up and go home! Recently, two or three children have gone missing. Go home early and pay attention to your safety. Don't think that you'll be fine just because you're a high school student. "
The three of them were stunned. They looked at each other and grasped the main point of the two teachers' words — National Day holidays and missing students.
Si Yu acted like a good student and said obediently, "Thank you for your concern, teacher. How are the missing students now?"
The two teachers looked at each other and shook their heads. "We haven't found them yet. They might have been kidnapped."
"What are their names?" Si Yu asked.
"Eh? I remember that Li Ming and Liu Shurong are your neighbors, right? "the two teachers asked in astonishment.
When Si Yu heard this, he immediately revealed a very charming smile. His eyes were slightly curved and he looked very charming. "Thank you, teacher. I've been too tired from studying recently. My family was probably worried about my mood and didn't tell me!"
"Thank you for your hard work, teacher. Happy National Day!"
The two teachers seemed to be very satisfied with Si Yu's words. They nodded slightly and said to the three of them, "Yes, yes. You too. Don't forget to do your National Day homework. Hurry up and go home."
With that, the two teachers got on their bicycles and left.
"It seems like our neighbors are involved this time. The time limit should be seven days. Let's find a place to stay first. Someone will look for us later," Si Yu said.
Gu Xizhou nodded and glanced at Si Yu. This pretty boy was quite good-looking when he raised his chin. Gu Xizhou thought about how Si Yu had pretended to be a good student. This person must be an actor, right?
It was as if his mouth was smeared with honey. No wonder the NPCs in the supernatural world were willing to talk to him. In just a short while, he had already dug out so much important information.
Gu Xizhou raised his head and looked at the dusky sky. It was currently winter in the mission world. The sky turned dark early. He tugged at his loose school uniform and felt a little cold. When they reached the town, they quickly saw the parents coming out to pick up their children.
The town wasn't poor. Instead, it was located near a scenic spot. The house they lived in was left behind by a former landlord. It was much bigger than an ordinary courtyard house. There were twelve families living in it. There were thirteen children around the same age. Two of them were missing.
As soon as Gu Xizhou entered the courtyard house, a middle-aged man patted him on the shoulder. That person said calmly, "Since you're back, let's go eat. Your mother is waiting for us."
Gu Xizhou was stunned. He turned to look at Si Yu. Si Yu helplessly shrugged at him. He was also led away by another family.
After dinner, Gu Xizhou was asked to do his homework. At this moment, he couldn't understand a single word.
Sorry, demon cultivators didn't know high school mathematics. He didn't do his homework!
Just as he was scratching his head, someone knocked on the door from outside.
He turned his head and saw a clean and delicate face. The boy said, "Can I come in?"
Gu Xizhou: "Yes."
Not long after Si Yu came in, Fang Zhi also came in.
Gu Xizhou was a little confused. "Why did they let you out?"
Si Yu said calmly, "We finished our homework. It's not too much to come out and play for a while, right?"
Gu Xizhou's gaze fell on Fang Zhi. Fang Zhi blushed and said, "They were all very simple questions. I finished them in a while."
Gu Xizhou's eyes widened. Was this called simple?
Was high school mathematics, physics, and chemistry easy? It was super difficult, okay?!
Gu Xizhou said to Fang Zhi beside him, "Help me do it."
"Ah … Okay, Gu Ge!" Fang Zhi obediently took the pen from Gu Xizhou's hand and began to do his homework seriously.
Just as they were whispering to each other, a series of curses suddenly came from outside. "F * ck, is there something wrong with their dog? I was just passing by and it actually bit me!"
"Haha, okay, this should be where we live. Let's look around first."
Gu Xizhou wanted to say something, but Si Yu gestured for him to keep quiet and said, "Let's observe the situation first."
At this time, other than the two missing children, the other 11 people in the courtyard had already returned home. One of them, a slightly tanned man, found Gu Xizhou and the other two. The NPC parents saw 11 children gathered in one room, but they didn't care.
As soon as Gu Xizhou walked behind the man, he heard a terrified roar coming from the room with the lights on. "Where is this place? How did I become like this?"
Gu Xizhou knew that this was the man's first time in a supernatural world. That was why he was so flustered.
When he walked in, he saw that most of the people inside were calm, but a few of them were trembling. There were both men and women. The girl who opened the door for them saw the tanned man who brought them in and shouted, "Hubby, are they people too?"
Xie Wenhuo nodded and introduced them, "They are people who have experienced one or two worlds."
Gu Xizhou was stunned when he heard how Xue Xiao addressed Xie Wenhuo. These two were husband and wife!
The girl who opened the door for them nodded slightly and introduced herself, "Hello, I'm Xue Xiao. Let's help each other."
Xue Xiao noticed Gu Xizhou's surprised gaze and explained.
Xue Xiao and Xie Wenhuo met in the mission world. Later, they met in the real world and became husband and wife.
Si Yu shook hands with Xue Xiao and said hello. She pointed at the agitated man inside and asked, "Him?"
Xue Xiao and Xie Wenhuo shrugged helplessly and said, "He's the same. He doesn't believe that he's going to die. This time, there are three newcomers. The situation is not bad."
After Gu Xizhou and the others entered, the agitated man continued to shout, "What crew are you from? Stop acting! I'm telling you, I don't want to participate! You're crazy! I'm going to sue you! "
Xie Wenhuo seemed to be holding back his anger. After entering, he glanced at the man and said calmly, "If you don't want to participate, then don't participate. If you want to die, you can leave now. No one will stop you. "
The agitated man was so angry that he cursed again and tried to leave.
"Don't go out!" Fang Zhi shouted anxiously. He grabbed the man's wrist and said, "Calm down. It's dangerous outside at night!"
The man didn't listen. He shook off Fang Zhi's hand and cursed loudly. His figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.
"Ah — —"
Xie Wenhuo didn't care at all when he heard the shrill scream in the darkness. He spat and said calmly, "You're asking for it."
Although some of them were calm, their eyes were filled with fear. One of the girls was so scared that she started crying.
Xie Wenhuo sat by the bed. He was obviously the leader of this group. He first told them about his discovery. "This time, we're on National Day. The time limit should be set — seven days."
"Students from the same grade as the school are missing." Xie Wenhuo didn't hide anything. After he told them what he knew, he asked, "Did you guys gather any information?"
Gu Xizhou listened while observing the expressions of the people around him. Other than Xie Wenhuo who looked relaxed, everyone else looked nervous and fearful.
It seemed that most of them had experienced one or two worlds like him. There were also three newbies. One of them … Gu Xizhou looked at the night outside. That one should be dead.
"The two missing students are our neighbors. There are 13 children in this yard. Including the newbie who just left, there are only 11 left. Two of them are missing. They're called Li Ming and Liu Shurong," Gu Xizhou added.
Hearing Gu Xizhou's words, Xie Wenhuo looked at him subconsciously. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect someone to have gathered this information. After all, they had only been here for a short while.
At ten o 'clock, the parents in the yard yelled for everyone to go to bed. The ten of them each found an excuse to sleep in a room they were familiar with. The parents didn't object. They just told them to go to bed early.
Gu Xizhou, Fang Zhi, and Si Yu slept in the same room.
The man who left didn't come back until the next morning.
Gu Xizhou woke up early in the morning. He had just washed his face when he heard a few people who came back from outside whispering.
"That newbie is really dead … Sigh …"
