Barrier of Light

“Where there is death, there is new life.”

"It's like sleeping, close your eyes, open your eyes... We will forget some things. Set off with new memories. One hundred years after another, reborn again and again." Gu Shen said calmly: "Here I need to state that these words were not said by me... they were said by the priests in Nanzhou. I personally have always been firm..."

He meant to say atheism.

But these three words were swallowed by Gu Shen.

"Okay... maybe what these priests said has a little truth..." He sighed softly.

After the funeral.

The rain, which was not heavy at all, is getting lighter and lighter.

The population in Xiaohuangshan gradually became sparse, Zhao Qi still knelt down in front of the wooden monument, and others left one after another.

Someone tapped Gu Shen behind him.

"...Teacher." He turned around and saw the old man holding a cane. Zhou Jiren was no longer dressed in a white suit this time, but also put on a solemn black suit. Just the night before, the old guy had sworn that he would He won't come to the funeral the next day because he doesn't like sad farewells and doesn't like gatherings.

The Zhou Ji people still came today.

"Don't get me wrong...I'm not here to commemorate the old guy Zhao Xilai..."

Zhou Jiren glanced at the wooden monument with wandering eyes and defended subconsciously.

Gu Shen noticed that he held an unlit cigar between his two fingers, and it was still slightly damp. He had not seen the teacher at the funeral before... But now, looking at it, this outfit and the damp cigar were enough. It shows that he is a duplicitous person.

"Alright alright……"

Zhou Jiren looked at his disciple's eyes, sighed, and sighed softly: "Maybe it's because I'm getting older and can't bear to see such a scene of separation between life and death... I watched it from a distance earlier and found that this funeral was not as heavy as I imagined. "

He squeezed under Gu Shen's umbrella warmly and said in a low voice: "Don't close the umbrella...look in that direction."

Holding the cigar between two fingers, he tapped it lightly.

Gu Shen looked in the direction of the teacher's gaze and saw a tall figure with an upright posture who had not yet left... It was a vicissitudes of man with half of his cheek covered with knife marks. Even if he didn't speak a word, he could tell just by looking at his face. Gives people a great sense of oppression.

Gu Shen had noticed this guy early in the morning. Aside from the external conditions of being tall enough, there was a very important reason.

temperament.

This man has a "cold as iron" temperament and is incompatible with the people around him. From the moment he arrived on the top of the barren mountain, he has not interacted with other people for a second, nor even looked at each other.

It seems like the whole world is superfluous.

And such a person... his eyes were fixed on Zhao Qi, who was unable to kneel down.

"This is?"

"Beizhou Qiancheng, Grand Duke Zhuxue has three very powerful confidants, who are called the 'Three Dogs' by outsiders."

"...Three dogs?" This was the first time Gu Shen heard this title.

"He is completely devoted to his master, and at the same time he is crazy and desperate for his life... Such a person is nothing if not a dog." Zhou Jiren said lightly: "This is the famous wild dog, Duan Feng."

"People from Beizhou are here..." Gu Shen looked at Zhao Qi, narrowed his eyes and said, "Are they here to take him to the fortress?"

Although the will was clearly published.

But there are still many people who can't believe it... Mr. Zhao is willing to send his son to Beizhou to suffer hardship? Just show off.

Gu Shen believed that Zhao Xilai could do it.

But he didn't expect that the people from Beizhou were so fast.

"Luo Yincheng Fortress, the third fortress on the west side of the main wing of Beizhou Fortress, is a very large fortress... This is where Zhao Qi will be sent next." Zhou Jiren said expressionlessly : "The geographical location of this fortress is very important. It is the only way to the 'Key Point'. If one day the 'Key Point Front' headed by the Gubao Fortress is lost, it will need to be on top of the main wing fortress."

The overall outline of Beizhou Fortress immediately appeared in front of Gu Shen, who was in the spiritual link.

Chu Ling very thoughtfully included notes on several key points.

The entire Beizhou Fortress presents a huge arc running through the east and west, like a pair of flying wings, and the apex in the middle is extremely protruding, like a bird's head... This is the apex.

The most "dangerous" place among the arch points is the "Fort". It is said that there is heavy snow all year round and the climate is extremely harsh. Even though the soldiers stationed at the Fort have extremely strong willpower, many people are still injured every year due to the natural climate. injured.

"Are you serious?"

Gu Shen was a little surprised. There were many fortresses in Beizhou... The overall environment and atmosphere were very serious. Sending Zhao Qi to the fortress was already a severe punishment, but sending it to Luo Yincheng Fortress was not a place for normal warriors. .

"It is said that this was a phone call that Zhao Xilai personally made to the Lin family. Maybe it was his request."

Zhou Jiren smiled sarcastically and said: "Maybe it's because of the bill... Grand Duke Zhuxue decided to help his old friend educate his useless son, but he actually sent such a confidant here. This Are you afraid that Zhao Qi will run away?"

Gu Shen watched silently as the wild dog came forward to the wooden monument and said something to Zhao Qi.

The filial son who couldn't kowtow raised his head, his face full of sadness, and said the same thing... But in the end, it was just delayed for a while. When the people on the mountain were almost dispersed, Zhao Qi was picked up by the neck by a wild dog and lifted up. Carry it away.

The wild dogs did not leave directly.

Instead, he walked in the direction of Gu Shen.

This is somewhat unexpected.

Are you here to find yourself?

The closer the distance...the more you can feel the oppression brought by this man.

Gu Shen subconsciously raised the umbrella so that he could see the man's face clearly. The left cheek was covered with scars and looked extremely ferocious.

"..." Wild Dog and Gu Shen looked at each other.

But it was just a glance.

He ignored the boy.

From his body, the murderous aura emitted itself, forming a dense and substantial oppressive aura like a needle. But when he got close to Gu Shen's umbrella, this oppressive aura was softened and dissolved by invisible force.

The person Wild Dog is really looking for... is actually Zhou Jiren.

This seemingly arrogant, brutal and domineering man spoke.

But his voice was not as violent as expected, but very peaceful, even gentle.

"Duke Zhuxue asked me to bring something to you..."

Facing the Grand Adjudicator of Dongzhou, even Wild Dog used honorifics.

Zhou Jiren narrowed his eyes, and a vague premonition emerged in his heart.

The wild dog stretched out his palm and wrapped a strand of slender hair around the knuckle of his little finger.

"?!"

Gu Shen recognized this strand of hair...it was Senior Sister Luo's natal sealed artifact!

After Da Teng parted ways, Senior Sister Luo and Senior Brother Zhong went out on missions together... but there was no news.

This... went to Beizhou?

"This is the hair that Mr. [Tian Tong] sent to the fortress not long ago. There is a trace of spiritual power left in it. It will break after reading it."

Wild Dog said softly: "I am entrusted by Grand Duke Zhuxue to deliver this lock of hair to you... Please accept it."
