Chapter 1102
Gu Zheng thought for a while and quickly sorted out the general course of events. First of all, even if he was unconscious, he still killed Hua Long. It should be the last immortal gourd that made the contribution.
Then it might be the opponent's final counterattack, which was protected by the water drop necklace given to him by the elder. As a result, the necklace disappeared, and the necklace that concealed the breath might have been damaged and lost in the fight. It was so intense at that time, and he was concentrating on fighting Hua Long, so he might not have noticed it.
Then he fell into a state of near death. Some of the feelings of the near death state before were still vivid in his mind. It can be imagined that if Pan Xuan did not choose to save him in the end, he would definitely die.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng patted his chest. He almost died like this. He was really scared. Now that the camouflage necklace has been destroyed, he can completely pretend to be a Shura person. If he meets his own people, he can also use the method that Xiao Chong gave him to hide. It's great.
Now that I am seriously injured and in urgent need of treatment, I am now considered to be in the same group as Pan Xuan. I cannot leave alone with my seriously injured body. It is just right for me to follow her and wait until my injury is healed.
Pan Xuan looked at Gu Zheng who was thinking, and her heart was pounding. There are very few Shura people who are so handsome. This is his true face, not a disguise. I can see it at a glance as a master of illusion.
Especially since he is so young and excellent. Although Mr. Feng also meets the requirements, he is really insidious and cunning. Pan Xuan does not like him from the bottom of her heart.
Thinking of why Gu Zheng wore a mask before, she also gave her own reason. She was afraid that she would be exposed if she found out that someone familiar recognized him. Such a handsome man must be a young talent who just came back from outside. No wonder she had never seen him before.
Pan Xuan's eyes were confused, and her eyes were even more watery. Her cheeks were also flushed. If the other party had a good temper, he would actually be a good match for her.
Pan Xuan was shocked by her own thoughts. This was her. Why couldn't she control herself when she saw him? What if he looked down on her and disliked her for not being young? This was the first time Pan Xuan complained about her age. Although she was very confident in her figure and appearance, her age was a flaw. She was no longer young. What if he liked young girls?
But when she thought about his background and the look in his eyes, Pan Xuan shivered unconsciously. Although her background was good, it was possible that he was better. What if he already had a partner? Pan Xuan complained to herself.
Shaking her head, she drove these messy thoughts out of her mind and talked about it later.
"Thank you, thanks for saving my life." Gu Zheng's eyes became clear. No matter what, he saved her life. Even if he was an enemy and didn't know his true identity, Gu Zheng was grateful.
"Haha, it should be. Is your identity exposed? Will you go back in the future?" Pan Xuan asked.
"Probably not, but it's not ruled out." Gu Zheng pondered for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer.
"Well, where are you going next?"
"I'm mainly recovering from my injuries now, and I don't have any other plans." Gu Zheng said what was in his heart
"That couldn't be better." Pan Xuan blurted out
"What, how is it better." This time it was Gu Zheng's turn to be puzzled.
"Well, this is me, I just happened to be going to deliver something, you go with me." Pan Xuan thought of his mission in a blink of an eye. Originally, he was going there to find a partner, but now he has the more powerful Gu Zheng by his side, so he doesn't need it, but he still has something to deliver, so he can't give up halfway.
"No problem, but my injury" Gu Zheng said in embarrassment, he can go anywhere at this stage.
"It's okay, the place to go is far away, at worst I can walk slowly." Anyway, the other party's mission is not very urgent, mainly a batch of supplies, and by the way, find a partner, it doesn't matter if it's late.
"That's fine." Gu Zheng agreed readily, this matter is completely no problem.
"It's broken." Gu Zheng's face suddenly changed, and he searched his body repeatedly. His judge's pen and gourd were gone, and he didn't know where they went.
"What's wrong?" Pan Xuan asked curiously, watching Gu Zheng's hands constantly reaching out to grope for something.
"My magic weapons are gone. When you saved me, did you see that one was in the shape of a gourd and the other was in the shape of a brush."
Gu Zheng's face was full of anxiety. Although the magic weapon was connected to his mind, his body was empty now, and he couldn't sense it. If someone picked it up and put it in the space, it would be terrible.
If that was the case, the judge's pen couldn't be sensed by himself, unless the other party took it out to refine it. The gourd was easy to say. It was Lu Ya's magic weapon. As long as he really wanted to find it, he could find it no matter where it was, but it would be difficult to explain if it was lost.
Besides, it was the strongest fighting force in his hands at present. Even Daluo's Hualong's head was cut off and died at the hands of the gourd.
"Yes, I put it away." Pan Xuan looked at the other party's anxious look and felt that the two magic weapons must be very important to him. He quickly took out the brush, which was still dusty.
"Where is the gourd?" Gu Zheng felt relieved, but suddenly tensed up again, wondering if the other party had seen it.
"That gourd, I seem to have an impression." Pan Xuan thought for a moment while dragging her chin, clapped her hands, and said to Gu Zheng, "When I was taking you away, it seemed to have fallen off halfway. I thought it was something unimportant. , I didn’t pick it up, that thing is quite important to you, right?”
Pan Xuan said embarrassedly, that thing looked so inconspicuous, she would have picked it up if she had known it.
"It is indeed very important. Can we go back and look for it?" Gu Zheng looked at Pan Xuan with a hopeful look on his face, hoping that she could take him back, otherwise he would cry if he was picked up by others.
"I forgot where I was." Pan Xuan's voice became lower and lower, "I sometimes get lost when I'm walking. I always go wrong for a long time before I look around, and the route has changed a long time ago."
Pan Xuan didn't remember the route. The big trees all looked the same. She was a bit of a road nerd, and the place where she fell was not a place with obvious features. Let alone her. If she went wrong, Gu Zheng wouldn't be able to remember it. live.
"It's okay. I'll look for it when I recover." Gu Zheng looked at Pan Xuan who looked guilty, and he didn't blame her. At least the other party saved him, so he could only hope that no one would pick it up.
"Oh, then this is for you." Pan Xuan lowered her head and handed it to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng didn't even look at it, feeling depressed. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it back, but he accidentally held Pan Xuan's palm.
As soon as he touched it, Gu Zheng felt that his skin was delicate and smooth, with a bit of warmth, which made him feel relaxed and happy, and he wished he could touch it more.
Of course, Gu Zheng quickly let go. He pulled back a little and took out the pen from his soft and boneless hand. He took it over. He felt a little embarrassed and felt that he wanted to take advantage of her.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Gu Zheng explained.
If anyone else dared to do this, Pan Xuan would have slapped him in the face and told him how to behave. But this time, surprisingly, he didn't make any other moves and just replied calmly.
"It's okay, I was just careless." If this tone were known to others, a lot of people's jaws would definitely be frightened. When did she become so easy to talk to?
However, Gu Zheng felt that she was quite generous and did not have the fussy and fussy feeling of others.
Next, Gu Zheng and Pan Xuan stopped for two days, mainly because Gu Zheng needed to recuperate his body. During the period, Gu Zheng took out the green liquid Ji Yi had given him before and drank it all.
But this time the injury was too serious. Although all the external injuries had healed, Gu Zheng probably drank all the green liquid and it still couldn't speed up the progress of the injury. The main reason was that the internal injuries were too serious, worse than the last time with good medicine. many.
Even though Gu Zheng looks very normal now, he gives off the impression that he is at the peak of the Golden Immortal. But in fact, he cannot beat the Gu Zheng who comes in the Golden Immortal stage. It is just bluffing people.
Pan Xuan was quite normal for Gu Zheng to take out the green liquid. After waiting patiently for two days, the two of them set off together.
Due to the ancient dispute, the two of them were much slower, but there was nothing to worry about. This place was already close to the middle of the central forest. In addition, due to the withdrawal of the Shura people, they did not meet anyone for a month.
As Gu Zheng's injuries gradually improved, their speed became faster and faster, but even so, they only walked a third of the way.
Because the final destination is in the northeast, the journey is very long.
When nothing happened, Pan Xuan asked Gu Zheng about his past, why he came back, who was in his family, and where he lived before.
Gu Zheng directly moved out of the place where he first lived. As for the elders and the like, they were not allowed to talk about it. A series of strange and weird questions almost broke Gu Zheng. This was to check the family background.
Not only that, Pan Xuan also talked to Gu Zheng about some cultivation matters, some trivial matters in daily life, etc., and was very talkative. Gu Zheng was fooled by deception.
Little did he know that Pan Xuan was becoming more and more satisfied with him. He was a good conversationalist, very knowledgeable, and his temper was not as overbearing as that of his fellow tribesmen. In comparison, he was even a little gentle. He was simply the perfect embodiment of a man.
When she learned that Gu Zheng was now alone, Pan Xuan almost couldn't help but ask him if he liked her. She thought that she had only been in contact with him for a few months and it was a bit abrupt, so she suppressed it.
Even though Shura women are generally so bold, they are still a little reserved when they speak out.
As a result, Pan Xuan usually looked at Gu Zheng with a different look, gentle and watery, with a hint of charm, but Gu Zheng was used to her unintentional temptation and didn't notice anything wrong.
Pan Xuan is the kind of person who seduces people with every move she makes. No matter how gentle your eyes are, few people can detect it, which makes Pan Xuan a little angry.
After three months of walking and stopping, Gu Zheng's injury was only half healed. The relationship between the two of them had improved by leaps and bounds. Gu Zheng also knew a lot about her, but he didn't mean anything else to her.
Among them, Pan Xuan also contributed a lot of rare elixirs, and Gu Zheng accepted them all with a smile, which made Pan Xuan secretly happy.
What Gu Zheng thought was that he owed her a life anyway, and it didn't matter if he owed more. He would find an opportunity to pay her back in the future, which would at least be better than the elixir he had prepared.
We walked along a diagonal line all the way, and finally arrived at the northernmost boundary. This place was already hibernating in the central forest, and it could basically be said to be the territory of the Shura people.
Although Pan Xuan accompanied him along the way, Gu Zheng still felt a little tired. He looked at the piles of stones here, which were no different from other borders.
"Where is it?" Gu Zheng looked around. Is it the same place as the last time? Are they digging for blood diamonds?
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Pan Xuan rolled her eyes at him, and randomly took out a whistle-like thing from her hand and blew it.
An invisible wave came from the whistle, and soon a hole slanting downward suddenly appeared on the ground in front of Gu Zheng. It looked exactly the same as the one Gu Zheng had seen before.
It couldn't be such a coincidence. I just copied a place from them some time ago. They probably don't know that it was me who did it.
With an uneasy mood, I followed Pan Xuan and walked in.
It was also a narrow and dark corridor, but the further you walked in, the wider it became. After walking for a while, Pan Xuan even walked side by side with Gu Zheng. This place was much deeper than the last one.
A tall hall finally appeared in front of him, covering a very large area, a square square, some puppets kept knocking on the wall, ding-dong-dong continuously, there were dozens of them, even Gu Zheng suspected that the opposite side might have dug to the point where they could not dig any further north.
Because the northernmost wall also flashed red, there were quite a few, but the puppets were on the left and right sides, none of them were working there, and more importantly, there was no blood diamond found inside, but a blood-red crystal.
Gu Zheng curiously picked up a piece of lost crystal on the ground, there were many impurities on it, at first glance it was an enlarged version of the blood diamond, but in fact the things contained in it were completely different.
Gu Zheng knew that the extremely complex energy in the blood diamond seemed to have life. If it weren't for the gloves, he couldn't hold it in his hand. Even with the gloves, he almost won the bid and fell.
The appearance of Gu Zheng and Pan Xuan soon attracted other attention. A tall Shura man walked directly from a distance and came straight to them.
"What are you doing here? I'm the person in charge here." His breath was very stable and his strength was very good. He was also a peak Golden Immortal guarding here.
"I'm here to dispatch someone in the name of a special envoy." Pan Xuan didn't waste any words and threw a token in his hand.
After the sturdy man took the thing in his hand, he seemed to read the content inside. He looked at Pan Xuan strangely, didn't say anything, and walked directly to a corner.
"Hey, where is this place? Why don't I know it?" Gu Zheng asked Pan Xuan beside him. There were many Shura supervisors here, mainly responsible for directing the puppets to dig.
"Here, this is a mine. The red crystals inside are the specialties of this world, Dragon Flame Stone. This is the mine of Puppet Town. Everyone here was sent from there."
Pan Xuan pointed here, "Actually, this is my first time here. If someone hadn't entrusted me to find something, I would have left this world long ago."
Fortunately, you didn't leave, otherwise I would have really died, Gu Zheng thought to himself, but this is the Dragon Flame Stone. As he said that, Gu Zheng took out another Dragon Flame Stone that was covered with rocks. It didn't look like it at all.
"Where did you get such inferior ore? I guess you seized it from the other side." At this time, the big man came with a man and said to Gu Zheng, looking at the two stones in his hand.
"These things are the outermost ore, and the energy contained is mixed and chaotic. It seems that there are two in the east, but they don't know that there are actually better ore inside. They only know to dig outside and can never dig inside in their lifetime."
A trace of disdain flashed across the big man's face. To be honest, he didn't want that thing. Even the puppets didn't eat that thing for fear of indigestion.
"So this is where the Dragon Flame Stone is produced. I thought it was somewhere else." Pan Xuan sighed in surprise. This thing is good. It is the most valuable here. The purer it is, the more valuable it is.
"By the way, this is the puppet given to you by the special envoy. Now it is handed over to you." The big man pulled a puppet behind him. It turned out to be a puppet at the peak of the Golden Immortal. The big man saw their doubts, "Don't worry, he has completely become a puppet, otherwise it would not be handed over to you for use."
"By the way, you take this thing back to Puppet Town and give it to Mayor Zhuang. This is what the special envoy told you."
Waiting for Pan Xuan to receive it, the big man handed over the separate control method to Pan Xuan, and then said goodbye, "I have something else to do. If you want to visit, please feel free. To be honest, there is really nothing to see here. There is nothing except these crystal stones."
Because the other party was specially sent here, the big man couldn't just drive them away. Anyway, they are all his own people, so let them do whatever they want.
"Wow, it's really good." Pan Xuan was controlling the puppet with great interest. He looked unfamiliar at first, but soon he almost mastered the puppet with practice. However, he needed a lot of practice to control it completely at will.
"Do you want to try it?"
Gu Zheng looked at this unknown human, shook his head, and rejected Pan Xuan.
He was also a little indignant in his heart, but he had no way to reverse the other party's state. In fact, he was dead, only a shell was left, and at most some instinctive memories were left.
Although he could not save him or let him rest in peace, he could never insult this senior who resisted.
This puppet technique was very similar to the corpse control technique he had heard of in later generations, but the latter one was too harmful to the harmony of heaven and earth, and was even more cruel than the Shura people.
Seeing Gu Zheng's refusal, Pan Xuan didn't care and continued to familiarize himself with the puppet in his hand. This puppet was specially given to him by the special envoy for self-defense. He was good at long-range attacks and just needed a meat shield to help him.
Gu Zheng looked at the huge cave around him. How long did it take to dig it? Could it be that it would never be dug out?
