There are obviously many secrets in this ancient dispute.

Fifty souls are not cultivated by anyone in this world, but they are very few. There is only one in the past three hundred years, and that person cultivates Xiaoyao Jue.

Cultivating a soul requires a lot of mental power. Mental power is different from vitality. It is a kind of inner cultivation, just like the strength of the soul in the ancient times does not depend on the amount of external immortal power.

In the sea of ​​ancient knowledge, small people slowly took shape and then grew larger.

"This technique is indeed a bit troublesome!"

After practicing all night, Gu Zheng opened his eyes at dawn. In one night, he cultivated ten souls. Adding the fifteen before, there were only twenty-five souls in total, which was still short of fifty souls. half the time.

This speed is a bit slow.

Fortunately, this was what he was thinking. Half of the people can cultivate ten souls in ten years, which is a good achievement. If they are less qualified, it will be possible in twenty years. Even those geniuses can cultivate ten souls in one or two years. There are not many gods.

This is just a result of cultivation. The cultivation of the first to ninth level of the soul is not slow. No wonder there are so few people practicing Xiaoyao Jue.

"Brother Gu, do you have time today?"

As soon as he got up, Jin Yu had already arrived in his yard. In addition to Wanfa Pavilion, there were many people who knew about Gu Zheng. After all, Heishan Village was taken care of by him alone. The creditors of Heishan Village were not weak, and there were many people. One person can build a stronghold, which makes many people curious.

There are only a few people who know that Gu Zheng can practice quickly.

"have!"

Gu Zheng said lightly and let Jin Yu come in. He was not polite to him and went to wash up himself.

He was originally assigned a maid, but Gu Zheng didn't want it. It was better for him to do these things by himself.

"I have a few friends who admire me when they know that Brother Gu conquered Black Mountain Village alone. I want to get to know you!"

Jin Yu said excitedly. Yesterday, Gu Zheng went to the room as soon as he came back. He even ate dinner in the room by himself. He and a few close friends bragged about it for half the night, almost blowing Gu Zheng to the sky. , which made those people curious.

As for Jin Kai, he planned to arrange a welcome banquet for Gu Zheng in two days. He just came back yesterday and the time was not suitable.

"Can!"

Jin Yu's friends, Gu Zheng, knew what was going on as soon as they heard it. They must be the second generation in the city. Jin Yu ran out excitedly and spread the news.

At noon, all Jin Yu's friends came to the main hall of the Jin family. Gu Zheng was the last one to enter and took the first seat on the left side of the master's house.

Opposite Gu Zheng was a man about the same age as Jin Yu, looking at him curiously.

"Brother Gu, let me introduce to you, this is the third son of the palace lord, Bai Ke!"

Jin Yu first introduced the person opposite him to Gu Zheng, the master's son. No wonder he was on the right, but his status was still not as high as Gu Zheng's. In this world, the left is respected.

Gu Zheng is a high-level warrior and a master of both fine and martial arts. No one will have any objection to him taking this position.

"This is Zhu Daoqi, the eldest son of Zhu Wen, the general manager of the city!"

"This is Sandara..."

"This is Jiang Yousheng..."

Jin Yu introduced the visitors one by one. There were seven young people in total, including Gu Zheng and Jin Yu, there were nine people.

Nine people were sitting in separate meals, and no one had a lot of food in front of them. It could be seen that these nine people were all warriors, and they were not low-level warriors.

"Brother Gu, I would like to toast you and thank you for eliminating this harm to our Dabaic City!"

Bai Ke raised the cup first. He actually had the highest status here, but he was in the Jin Mansion, not the City Lord's Mansion, so he sat below.

"Dry!"

Gu Zheng was not polite, he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. The taste of the wine could not be said to be bad, but it was not much better. Gu Zheng, who had tasted better wines, could only say that these wines were just average.

Fortunately, Jin Yu didn't know what he was thinking. If he knew, he would probably scream aggrieved. Today, in order to entertain Gu Zheng, this is the best treasure in the family. Usually even his father would not be willing to drink it.

"Brother Gu, I would like to ask a question. I heard from Brother Jin that a few days ago you were still a middle-level warrior. This time when you went to annihilate Black Mountain Stronghold, you are already a high-level warrior. Did you hide your strength before, or did you really just practice high-level skills? ?”

It is really presumptuous to directly inquire about other people's cultivation, but Bai Ke didn't ask the question himself. He came with a mission to find out the real situation of Gu Zheng.

It was just a matter of hiding his strength before, but it would be terrifying if he really just cultivated it.

Gu Zheng bought the Butcher's Divine Spear, but not long after, whether it was Jin Yuhe or Bai Ke, their families interrogated the bandits many times and determined that Gu Zheng used the Butcher's Divine Spear on the day he stormed the village.

"There's nothing to hide, I practice faster!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly. If you practice quickly, you are a genius. If you practice too fast, you will be a monster. However, the speed of cultivation shown by Gu Zheng is even more monster than a monster. That is terrifying.

Gu Zheng had been mentally prepared for this, and it didn't matter if he told the truth. He was just here to experience and play, and he didn't really regard himself as a person in this world.

If someone really wants to do harm to him, they have to think about it themselves.

"Cultivation is faster?"

Bai Ke choked, is this faster? Who has ever heard that advanced skills can be practiced in just a few days? Even if a genius practices advanced skills, he can only get started in a few days, and it is not even as useful as the original intermediate skills.

"Brother Gu, have you really just started practicing the Divine Slaughter Spear?"

This time it was Sandara who asked the question. He still looked like he couldn't believe it, but this time he asked more clearly and clearly.

"That's right!"

Gu Zheng nodded again, without being polite, picked up the elbow on the table and started to chew on it. The elbow was not small, but it was not enough for his current appetite.

The seven young people, including Jin Yu, were all speechless and stared blankly at Gu Zheng chewing the meat, which was delicious.

"Brother Gu, I would like to ask again, do you know where Brother Gu is from? We have checked your whereabouts, Brother Gu. You first appeared in Daqing Mansion. Later, you encountered monsters on the road. The strength you showed was Na The power of the Nine Bulls of Yuan Jue, and not long after Brother Jin met you, you were practicing the Soul-Eating Spear, but now, you are practicing the Divine Slaughter Spear!"

Bai Ke said carefully, this involved secrets, but his elders had orders and he had to ask.

"Keep it secret!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly and didn't answer him this time.

Where did it come from? I come from prehistoric times, can you say that? Of course there was no way to say it, and he didn't want to make up any lies to justify it, so he simply refused.

As for whether he would offend these people, Gu Zheng never thought about it. If they were smart, they would not provoke him. Otherwise, they would be the ones who regretted it.

Bai Ke was startled, then smiled bitterly.

When he asked the question, he thought that Gu Zheng would refuse, but he didn't expect to refuse so simply and without giving him any steps. However, he didn't think about falling out or anything. In his eyes, Gu Zheng was a mysterious master. , since he is an expert, it is normal to do things that are not in line with common sense.

Weird, I can only blame him for asking the wrong question.

"Brother Bai, I heard that you recently composed another poem and was praised by the palace master. Why don't you tell us about it today so that we can also learn from Brother Bai's masterpiece!"

Zhu Daoqi on the side helped to rescue him. There was no so-called poem at all, it was purely to give Bai Ke a step down.

However, Bai Ke's literary talent is indeed good and he is well-known in the Qinglong Empire. It is not difficult for him to write a poem immediately.

"Brother Zhu is overly praised!"

Bai Ke cheered up. Poetry was indeed one of his strong points. He was a bit unable to get off the stage just now, but now he is finally feeling better.

"The new work was actually made when I was on my last mission to the Suzaku Kingdom. The Suzaku Kingdom is located in the northern cold land, and the folk customs there are really strong!"

Bai Ke chuckled, and then chanted: "Shuang Yan was born in the first year, and five peaches were newly made into flowers. Wang Chang was in the east house, and Song Yu was in the west house. Xiao Xiao can weave silk, and Huan yarn comes out from time to time. I work hard to make you king. Ask, the incense car is stationed in Nanmo."

The poem was indeed good, and the artistic conception was very good. As soon as Bai Ke finished speaking, applause started. Gu Zheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes kept shining.

"Brother Bai, I would also like to ask, is this poem really written by you?"

Gu Zheng asked softly, the poem was really good, with artistic conception and connotation, but the key was that he knew this poem and had heard it.

If his guess is true, then the world will be more interesting.

"Of course, I did it. Brother Gu, do you have any advice?" Bai Ke sat up straight and seemed a little proud.

"Advice is not a big deal, I also have a poem here, please appreciate it, Brother Bai!"

Gu Zheng smiled, and without waiting for Bai Ke's reply, he said slowly: "When will the spring flowers and autumn moon come? How much do you know about the past? There was an east wind in the small building last night, and the motherland cannot bear to look back in the moonlight."

As soon as he finished reading these few sentences, several people around him frowned and couldn't help but nodded.

The artistic conception of Gu Zheng's poem is also very good. It is no worse than Bai Ke's, or even stronger. It's just that Gu Zheng talks about his homeland. Is it possible that he is not from the Qinglong Empire at all?

This is really possible. After all, everyone has inquired about Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. There were no clues about him before.

"The carved railings and jade masonry should still be there, but the beauty has changed. How much sorrow can you have? It's like a river of spring water flowing eastward."

Gu Zheng read the complete poem slowly, and the wine glass Bai Ke was holding froze suddenly and raised his head.

The artistic conception of this poem is deeper and stronger than that of his, especially the last sentence, which is likely to become a quatrain for the ages. With this sentence alone, his poems cannot be compared.

"Brother Bai, what do you think of my poem?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.

"No, Brother Gu is a great talent, both civil and military, I admire you!"

Bai Ke clasped his fists, and several others also clasped their fists and praised him. Gu Zheng's poem was really good, and it really left them speechless.

"Brother Bai, you can tell this poem to the owner of your previous poem, and he will understand!"

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I'll take my leave first!"

Gu Zheng stood up with a smile. Judging from Bai Ke's expression and his reaction, Gu Zheng knew that the previous poem by Wang Wei was not written by him.

That's right, the poem Bai Ke just read was written by Wang Wei, a poet from the Tang Dynasty on Earth. The appearance of this poem in Bai Ke's mouth made Gu Zheng feel a little interesting.

Either a poet from Earth's Tang Dynasty time traveled here, or Wang Wei traveled through time.

The latter is unlikely, but the former is more likely, so Gu Zheng deliberately wrote a poem from the Five Dynasties to see when that person traveled through time.

He said goodbye and left because he didn't want to talk nonsense with these people. They were probing him inside and outside his words. Gu Zheng didn't like this. There was no need for it.

After leaving the hall, Gu Zheng left Jin's mansion directly, leaving Jin Yu and others with their mouths open.

Where are the etiquette and politeness gone?

Seeing that Gu Zheng was a very temperamental person, why did he leave them alone like this?

Bai Ke thought of something and hurriedly left to say goodbye.

Before Gu Zheng left, he could take a special look at him. That look was very meaningful. He recalled Gu Zheng's question just now and asked if he had written the poem. His answer was yes, but he knew in his heart that it was not. .

After leaving Jin Mansion, Gu Zheng wandered around Dabaicheng with great interest.

Perhaps because it is a border mansion, many people on the streets are armed. There are more escort agencies here than Daqing and Da'an, and they are more powerful.

Many of these escort agencies take on cross-border delivery tasks. Many caravans do not have their own escorts, especially those small caravans. Most caravans join together and hire escorts from one or more escort agencies. escort.

The escort agencies that dare to take on cross-border escort missions are not weak in strength.

"My gun is still a little weak!"

Gu Zheng thought of his fine iron spear, which was just fine when he was a middle-level warrior. Now that he was a high-level warrior, the spear was a bit unsustainable. He needed to change to a better weapon.

It is best to use a gun made of pure black iron. However, he asked about this kind of gun when he was in Da'an Mansion last time. There is no finished product. If you want this kind of gun, you can only customize it. The material is too precious. People who really use this kind of weapon, They will all be customized and made to look exactly how you want.

"It's impressive, the black iron spear is not cheap!"

In a large weapons store, Gu Zheng explained his needs to the store owner. The store owner looked at him in surprise and said.

"Money is no problem, can you do it?" Qian Guzheng still has money, and to Gu Zheng, money is just a number.

"According to your request, pure Xuantie Zazao's spear weighs almost three hundred kilograms and requires about six thousand kilograms of Xuantie ore. Xuantie ore costs one Yuan Qi brand per kilogram, and the raw material cost is six thousand Yuan Qi. Card!"

The shopkeeper spoke slowly, and Gu Zheng was speechless.

The raw materials require six thousand vitality cards, and he only has more than eight thousand vitality cards now, which seems to be not enough.

"This is just the raw material. The cost of extracting the raw material is at least one thousand Yuanqi Brands. Adding the cost of manufacturing, the cost price will be tens of thousands. If you want to do it, we will buy the black iron ore, find someone to purify it, and then let the store It’s made by a master and can be completed in about a month!”

It will take another month to get tens of thousands of vitality cards.

There was not enough money, and Gu Zheng did not expect that a dark iron weapon would be so expensive. The tip of his previous fine iron spear contained dark iron, but the quantity was not large.

"This is five thousand vitality cards, which is considered a deposit, but one month is too long, half a month at most. Can it be completed in half a month?"

"It's okay if it takes half a month, but there will be extra charges for expediting it. After half a month, we can only urgently collect other finished black iron at a high price, and at least two thousand vitality cards will be added!"

"Okay, I'll give you a deposit of 6,000, and I'll pick it up in half a month!"

It doesn't matter if he adds two thousand. It's not enough for him anyway. Gu Zheng can't accept the addition. One month is indeed a long time for him. He came to this world to play and doesn't plan to stay here for too long.

After leaving the weapon shop, his wealth has now become negative and he has to make money again.

The only way to make money by robbing bandits is that there is more than one bandit village near Dabai Mansion, and there are many more. Before the ancient war, the reason why Heishan Village was chosen was firstly because they had many bounties and a large number of people, and secondly they were close.

This time, Guzheng's target was a bandit's nest two hundred miles away.

There were three hundred people there, and they only offered a reward of six hundred vitality cards to the creditor, which was higher than Liu Hong's reward in Heishan Village.

The reason for this is because the creditor is already a high-level warrior, and high-level warriors are naturally worth more than mid-level warriors.

The little mare ran very fast, and she had never lost anything in ancient competitions these days. This time, she was short of money, so she didn't take her time. The 200-mile journey arrived in less than a day.

On this day, the little mare was tired from running, and when she stopped, she looked at Gu Zheng resentfully.

"The person coming is Master Gu Zheng Gu!"

As soon as Gu Zheng arrived at the place where they collected tolls, his name was called out. There were sixteen people here, also armed, but they were not guarding in the middle of the road, but hiding on the roadside.

It's a pity that their hiding is of no use against Gu Zheng.

"You know me?"

"Of course, the master has given instructions. If Master Gu comes, we will take you up the mountain immediately. The master has prepared what you want for you. I only ask you to let us go once!"

The bandit immediately replied that the boss was a smart man and actually made preparations in advance.

"lead the way!"

Gu Zheng didn't waste any time and asked them to lead the way. Sixteen people walked in front with fear. They had already heard about the incident in Heishan Village. It was very tragic. Several leaders were dead and the village was looted.

Gu Zheng's name also spread.

"Mr. Gu, please take a seat!"

The village was really prepared. As soon as Gu Zheng arrived, the village owner took the initiative to open the door and welcomed Gu Zheng in. He was a high-ranking warrior with an indescribably flattering attitude.

"This is the account book of our village. Take a look at it. We mainly collect money from wealthy businessmen in the past and have never harmed anyone. No one in our village is kidnapped. There are also some who are poor people who can't live anymore. Mountain, the border between the two countries is here in Dabai Mansion. There are constant wars, and this place has become a refuge for them!"

The headmaster said carefully, a high-level warrior stood there and spoke to Gu Zheng.

When entering the village, Gu Zheng also noticed that this village was very clean and different from the others. Moreover, it had no city walls. There were actually people cultivating wasteland and doing geography work around the village.

Said to be a bandit den, this place is more like a mountain village.

"We currently have 6,000 vitality cards. That's all. My head is still worth 600. Mr. Gu, you can take it. I just ask you not to make things difficult for others. It's all for living. It's not easy!"

The eldest master was talking there. Gu Zheng looked at him and suddenly kicked out. The eldest master didn't even have time to react and was kicked away directly.
