On the green grassland, a procession of people and horses was meandering along the river. After picking up Shui Congyue and others, the group headed straight for Xingshan.
This is what Wu Gen meant. With so many people entering Hanlu City, it will inevitably attract the attention of some people. Especially with the current turmoil in the Iron Hand Province, many people are staring at Hanlu City to avoid causing more trouble.
Along the way, the horse team rumbled forward, and because of the large number of people, they encountered no setbacks.
At dusk that day, a group of people arrived at a small pavilion. This place is close to Sunset Forest and is the only place to rest nearby. After walking through this forest for an unknown number of miles, we were not far from Hanlu City.
At night, Ji Ye and others rested in the hotel. Since they had already stayed there once before, they were familiar with the road.
Because there are very few guest rooms in Guanyi, only Ji Ye and a few other people can stay in them, while the rest can only sleep outside.
As the moon rose above the treetops, Wu Gen walked out of the house softly, looked around, then turned towards the most remote guest house.
When he reached the door, Wu Gen paused and took a deep breath before preparing to knock on the door. Before his hand landed on the wooden door, the door was already opened from the inside.
Shen Lang stood quietly at the door. The moonlight squeezed through the night and entered the room, making his body appear half bright and half dark, which seemed a bit inconsistent.
"Do you want to enter the house?" Shen Lang asked softly.
"Let's go for a walk." Wu Gen turned away half of his body.
"Okay." Shen Lang closed the door gently, and the two walked out of the hotel one after the other. After looking at the bonfires dotted around him, Wu Gen turned to the direction of Sunset Forest, where there were fewer people.
There was a rustling sound underfoot, and a thick layer of old pine needles and decaying vegetation was piled on the ground, leaving deep footprints with every step.
Wu Gen and Shen Lang were walking side by side, neither of them wanting to speak. They were like two lonely ghosts in the wilderness on this moonlit night.
Wu Gen put his hands gently on his waist, his mind meridian was activated unconsciously, his body gradually became tense, and there was sweat seeping out of his palms.
After walking such a long way, in such a quiet night, Wu Gen didn't feel the other person's heartbeat, nor could he see the other person's cultivation level.
Shen Lang seemed to have some magical power. He would always hide his presence and blend into the surrounding environment. If it weren't for the slight sound of footsteps, Wu Gen would have suspected that he was walking alone.
After walking down a gentle slope, the lights of the hotel had disappeared. Wu Gen stopped for a moment, turned around and looked at Shen Lang, "Who are you."
"Shen Lang."
Wu Gen kicked the fallen leaves under his feet, tilted his head and sneered, "Why bother, Yang Zheng has already reminded me. Originally, you were not on this trip, but the sect directly ordered you to go with us. Moreover, Cong Yue also told me that he I can’t see through you, but your cultivation level is definitely above his.
You said, how can I sleep soundly with such an unknown master by my side? Now that I'm here, I might as well have some fun so that I can have some peace of mind. Otherwise, I can only find a way to kill you. Although your cultivation level is higher, if you are here alone, you will either kill us all, or sooner or later you will be killed by evil. "
Shen Lang hesitated for a moment, then lightly snapped his fingers, and there was silence all around. "I still have an identity, named Jia Wu. Don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards you. I'm accompanying you all the way this time. I just want to see you and your relationship in person." The fearless army will then decide whether to invest more resources in Kuntian Continent.”
On A5, Wu Genru was struck by lightning and was stunned on the spot. The one with the prefix A is already a top-notch existence in the grinding sect.
Thinking back to Liu Kuo's skill, his code name was Yiyi. This person was actually taller than Liu Kuo. How could he not make Wu Gen nervous?
Seeing Wu Gen's expression, Shen Lang's dead face showed a rare smile, "Originally, you were just a casual move in the sect, and there was not much hope. This time Yang Zheng returned and needed the sect to help him find people. I just realized that you have already made a lot of achievements. After discussion with the elders of Killing God Hall, I was sent here to find out."
"How do you feel after seeing it?" Wu Gen swallowed.
"Yes, it's really good." Shen Lang smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect you to take the line of Dengtian Palace and become a secret guard, and also work with the industry.
The provincial lords are quite familiar with each other. Although you haven't seen the entirety of the Fearless Army, you can see the whole thing at a glance. From your subordinates, you can see that there must be a brave army behind you. "
Wu Gen tugged at the corners of his lips and said with a dry smile: "Good eyesight, good eyesight." In order to show off in front of Shui Congyue and others, Wu Gen not only brought out the Eight Riders of Ling Yun, but also specially selected capable soldiers. Of course the man looks mighty and majestic.
"Ahem, I've looked at it, but I don't know what support the sect can give my fearless army." Wu Gen coughed and said with a sad face, "From the time we arrived at Kuntian Continent, Yang Zhengshi and I were in trouble, and the journey was full of dangers. , with his life hanging by a thread, he has laid such a foundation in the crisis-ridden Kuntian Continent. As you know, the Grinding Sect has given you nothing, so it’s not easy to pick this peach.”
Shen Lang laughed loudly and looked at Wu Gen with more admiration. As long as he was willing to make demands, it would be easy. Cooperation, how can you not ask for anything in return? If Wu Gen looks upright and doesn't want any help from the sect, it means that he is ready to cut off with the Modao sect. Shen Lang is really ready to abandon this line.
"That's natural. The sect didn't really help Kuntianzhou and his party this time, but there were difficulties. The sect didn't do much in Kuntianzhou, so even if it wanted to help, it couldn't be done. Moreover, Deng The Heavenly Palace is actually very careful about the entry of human forces into Kuntian Continent. Once a person with high cultivation level is discovered, he will either be driven away or hanged somewhere.
I just have some magical powers and can hide my own cultivation, so I dare to go all the way here, so I ask for your understanding. Shen Lang explained patiently.
"As for how to help you, you might as well change your mind. In addition to providing money and materials, the sect can focus on operating at sea, gather all forces, and respond to you from a distance. In this way, you also have access to and from various continents. After all, you are on land. It is inevitable that I will be weak, but if I have help from outside, I can save a lot of things. I don’t know what you think.”
After thinking for a while, Wu Gen nodded, "Forget about gold and silver, what I need is spiritual jade. To tell you the truth, if I want to form a falcon army and a navy army in the future, I will definitely need a lot of spiritual jade, and Kun Tian The control here in Zhouzhou is very strict. I can't steal much, so I need support from the sect.
In addition, the biggest shortcoming of our fearless army is the lack of high-end combat power, which makes it suffer a lot. This needs to be considered and assisted by the sect. I think the seniors from A-5 are pretty good, so why not stay and help me become more successful to show the sincerity of the sect. "
For a long time, Wu Gen has been constrained by the lack of high-end combat power. Every time he encounters an opponent with advanced cultivation, he will feel troublesome. In the past, when on Zuoheng Road, the opponent's combat power was not much higher, and there were other ways to make up for it.
It can be expected that when the Fearless Army becomes stronger, the opponents it faces will also increase. When the opponent sends out a bunch of masters, how to deal with it will depend on the lives of their men. This is the most disadvantageous way of playing, with a serious imbalance in input and output, and can only be done if there is no other way.
This time Yang Zheng was asked to look for Wu Mo just because he wanted to make up for this shortcoming. However, Wu Mo was in the form of a Tathagata and fled to Yan. Yang Zheng searched for it for a long time but could not find any trace of him, so he had to trick him into coming from the moon. Now that he has a good player like Shen Lang, Wu Gen doesn't want to let him go.
Shen Lang burst into laughter, "You're really good at planning this. Could it be that you want to use me as a free thug? You know, once someone discovers my true cultivation level, the Dengtian Palace will definitely send a large number of experts to surround it. My life is at risk if I don't agree to your proposal."
Wu Gen spread his hands and said with a look of helplessness: "Then what can I do? I have to send my senior away obediently. But whatever the cause is planted, the result will be. The grinding door was opened when I was weak. If you don’t make a big bet, don’t even think about how much the Fearless Army will do for you in the future.”
After hearing this, Shen Lang's face gradually became serious, his pupils inadvertently shrank slightly, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
Wu Gen raised his chin slightly and looked directly at the other person coldly, "When doing business, you have to be discerning. Aren't you guys always good at taking the long term? You can see if I, Wu Gen, am worth your investment." .
Of course, if you think about using the big to suppress the small, and want to secretly do harm to the Fearless Army and force me to submit, then you have made a wrong calculation. Just like I dare to fight against the divine religion alone, if Mo Dao Sect goes too far, sooner or later, you will also eat the bitter fruit you sow. "
In the night, the two looked at each other silently, neither giving in to the other. The surroundings were eerily quiet.
A broken leaf quivered and flew up from the ground, fluttering in the air. When it flew close to the two of them, it quickly fled away like a frightened moth, spiraling upwards. Soon, there was a gust of wind beside them for no reason, and more leaves flew up, wrapped in rot and grass, and kept spinning, like a black pillar.
In the wind pillar, the two men faced each other, testing each other, like two tigers that were ready to attack at any time.
After a while, Shen Lang sighed, and with a flick of his right hand, the raging wind column suddenly stopped, and broken leaves fell from the sky like rain.
"Okay, I promise you, but I can't stay in Kuntianzhou for too long. There are still many things in the door." Shen Lang looked helpless and put a hand on Wu Gen's shoulder, speaking with sincerity. He said, "It depends on everyone, but you are the most reliable. So, little guy, you have to grow up quickly."
"Okay, thank you, senior." Wu Gen grabbed the other person's other hand tightly and said sincerely: "Since you stay, we will be a family from now on. Senior, please rest assured, as long as the junior has a drink, we will never It is indispensable for seniors to eat in one bite.
As the saying goes, there are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is not having offspring. I think the senior is also alone, so it is better to have a family in Kuntian Continent. I don’t know if the senior likes human race, sharks or herdsmen, whether he likes small and exquisite ones or round and beautiful ones, the juniors can arrange it. "
Looking at the spitting Wu Gen, Shen Lang had an absurd feeling. He was still looking heroic just now, but now he looked like a different person.
Feeling that the hand held by the other party was getting hotter and hotter, Shen Lang pulled it out and said, "Wu Gen, I finally understand why there are so many people surrounding you."
"Your Majesty, you are saying that I can win people, I have the blessing of luck, and I am born to be a king." Wu Gen's eyes lit up.
Shen Lang was a little speechless, "You have been like this since you were a child...so shameless. If there is a realm of shamelessness, you should be regarded as the proper senior, and I am the junior."
"Sir, what are you talking about? This kid is called being diplomatic, following the wind, knowing how to behave, knowing the current situation, and being able to advance and retreat." Wu Gen was somewhat dissatisfied with what the other party said.
"That's it, let's go back." Shen Lang looked helpless. Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly looked up and looked into the forest in the distance, "Young man."
Wu Gen was stunned for a moment, then the smile on his face dropped, "Senior, you saw something."
"There are three people lurking in the forest. It seems they want to attack Guanyi." Shen Lang took another look and suddenly lost interest, "They are just three people who have entered the Five Realms for the first time."
Wu Gen was shocked. He sent out three people from the Five Realms at once. There was no doubt that he wanted to deal with Ji Ye and Ji Yan. He couldn't commit such a big move.
"Senior, you will be staying in Kuntianzhou for a long time in the future. I dare you to collect some rent first and ask your senior to kill these three thieves." Wu Gen bowed his head to Shen Lang.
"That's it." Shen Lang looked at Wu Gen with a smile, "I'm going to deal with the two of them. Isn't there a boy named Shui? He will deal with the remaining one. They just came to Kuntian Continent, and it happened to be He can show his ability in front of the shepherd, and he will avoid being looked down upon in the future. If it weren't for the fact that you are so incompetent, I would have saved one for you."
"Senior has great righteousness." Wu Gen bowed and sang a big song.
