When Gu Yucheng left Gu's house, it was already a night when Shuang Xing was defeated miserably and the wind was blowing and the sand was blowing.
The night in Nanjun is so rough and barren. Except for the frost stars hanging in the sky and the rough sand and dust, there is no other scenery to speak of.
But Gu Yucheng liked this kind of boldness.
The world is barren, perhaps it should be barren, but if it is not barren, how can it breed everything?
Everything in the world is just a guest, and only desolation is the destination. And living this life is to conquer the desolation.
Gu Yucheng would sometimes become so heroic and rare.
Gu Yucheng has already made up his mind about the trip to the Demon Country. All that's left is to make proper arrangements for Wang Zhiwei.
Gu Yucheng quickly found Wang Zhiwei. Wang Zhiwei abbreviated his clothes and walked forward to Gu Yucheng. Gu Yucheng said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be awake yet, Zhiwei."
Wang Zhiwei muttered, "Brother Gu, this is Su Shi's behavior."
Gu Yucheng was stunned and asked enthusiastically, "How do you say it?"
Wang Zhiwei rolled his eyes, "Think about it, Su Shi went to find Zhang Huaimin in the middle of the night. Zhang Huaimin might have fallen asleep, but if Su Shi called him, would he not wake up? However, Su Shi said, "Huaimin is not asleep either." .——Brother Gu called me from the psychic jade. When he called me, he was surprised that I was still awake. This is not Su Shi’s behavior. What is this?"
Gu Yucheng laughed when he heard this, "That's true. But I don't know whether Zhang Huaimin was asleep at the time. But looking at you like this, I'm afraid I woke you up while you were asleep."
Wang Zhiwei nodded and turned around and led Gu Yucheng towards a hotel.
Gu Yucheng looked in the direction and laughed.
In this direction, it is the North and South Restaurant.
So the two came to the restaurant.
Before the two of them could speak, a waiter wearing a snow-white and oily towel bowed and came to the two of them.
"Hey! Gentlemen, are you planning to get a job or stay in a hotel?" The flattering smile shrank as soon as he saw Gu Yucheng.
In fact, the person in front of me has a good temperament, which makes people's hearts ache.
Wang Zhiwei waved his hand, "We have booked a room. Let's serve some food and wine first. How much meat and vegetables will be served."
The waiter bent down and smiled charmingly, "We have ten kinds of meat dishes in our store. Don't you guys take a look?"
Gu Yucheng shook his head and said, "No, take a plate of pork and enough garlic sauce.
And just serve the ribs. As for the sauced pork elbow, just have a portion. Have some vegetarian dishes to relieve fatigue. A plate of dried fish. Just prepare drinks for this person only. "
The waiter wanted to say something else, but Gu Yucheng interrupted directly, "Just do as you are told!"
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then nodded, with a smile on his face, and retreated.
Wang Zhiwei was a little confused, "Why only eat pork? I heard their beef is also very good."
Gu Yucheng smiled and said, "If you walk three hundred meters east of this restaurant, there will be a market.
At the beginning, middle and end of every month, there will be vendors buying beef, donkey meat and other fine meats. But many people only want the meat attached to the bones. Do you know why? "
Wang Zhiwei shook his head, "You can't have it freshly cut?"
Gu Yucheng nodded, "Most of the freshly cut pork is dyed red and slumped on the table. Substituting it as good quality is what many businessmen do. - This store is the same. Although it is a good conscience, it often treats us badly. These outsiders will inevitably mix fish, cattle and pigs, or even a plate of pork directly. It is better to just have a plate of pork."
Wang Zhiwei nodded in surprise, "Aren't you afraid that someone will find out?"
Gu Yucheng shook his head, "So what if you find out? There are solutions. But we are just passers-by after all, so there is no need to insist on these."
Wang Zhiwei never thought that this small meal could have such knowledge.
The two of them took their seats and soon waited for the food and drinks.
So I was listening to the story and eating vegetables.
Gu Yucheng took a few bites of dried fish and some pork, then threw down his chopsticks.
"Zhiwei, where have you planned to go?" Gu Yucheng asked.
, Wang Zhiwei stopped chewing, pondered for a long time, and then spit out two words "Shang Guo."
Gu Yucheng was stunned, "Oh? Have you thought about it?"
Wang Zhiwei sighed and said, "If people from the Central Plains go to the Shang Kingdom, it will often be difficult to move. But I have escaped from the Shengqi Sect. If I stay in the Central Plains again, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents. Let's go to the Shang Kingdom."
Gu Yucheng pondered for a moment, "According to what you say, wouldn't it mean that all casual cultivators who can't stay in the Central Plains can go to the Shang Kingdom? What about the Shang Kingdom?"
Wang Zhiwei smiled: "Today's world is like the Warring States Period and the Three Kingdoms. If you can't survive, there are other places to stay."
It is not surprising that a large number of monks flow into each other between the Central Plains and Shang Dynasty every year. "
"Both sides don't care? - Also, if a large number of monks flow in every day, it would be unrealistic to check them one by one." Gu Yucheng then asked, "In this way, we are not afraid of the other party setting up hidden stakes? If the monks are highly cultivated, Monks, just let them come in and out like this?"
Wang Zhiwei took a bite of the cold dish and said, "That's not true. For some people with high cultivation levels, they will definitely check them carefully and maybe investigate them secretly. I don't know the specific details."
Gu Yucheng nodded, "In that case, we will set off tomorrow, starting from Nanjun, passing through the three southern provinces, passing through the ancient Qin Province, and entering the Shang Kingdom."
Wang Zhiwei thought for a while, "That's fine, I won't go to Zhongtian Province. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers there, and there are so many miscellaneous things."
There are too many uncertainties. Thinking about the three southern provinces being so backward, there wouldn’t be many surprises. "
Gu Yucheng felt a little uncomfortable.
Wang Zhiwei said at this time, "I wonder why Brother Gu went to the Demon Kingdom...?"
Gu Yucheng reacted, "Oh! I'm ashamed to say that my trip to the Demon Country is to make up for a mistake I made. If I don't go, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of it in my life."
Wang Zhiwei nodded slowly, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then, Brother Gu must be more careful when he goes there. The Demon Kingdom is no better than the Central Plains and Shang Kingdom."
Gu Yucheng smiled and said, "Don't worry. Anyway, I'm prepared."
Gu Yucheng turned around and asked the waiter to put away the dishes. He stood up and was about to leave. Wang Zhiwei did not leave. When Gu Yucheng saw this, he saw that Wang Zhiwei was still worried, so he sat back and said, "What else is worried about Zhiwei? Let's go first." Let’s talk about it.”
Wang Zhiwei smiled and said, "I'm a little embarrassed. It's also my own selfishness. Tell Brother Gu, please don't laugh at me."
Gu Yucheng waved his hand calmly, "How could it be possible? Please tell me."
"I don't know, has Brother Gu heard that Ying Long Scale was stolen more than a year ago?" Wang Zhiwei asked tentatively.
Gu Yucheng felt a flash of surprise at the change. It had been more than a year?
Gu Yucheng came to his senses and said, "Of course I know."
"A monk named Zhang Zhilin stole the dragon scale." Before Wang Zhiwei finished speaking, Gu Yucheng interrupted in surprise, "Do you know who stole it?"
Wang Zhiwei nodded, "Of course. This matter caused quite a stir, and even people in Hangu Pass knew about it.
Because of this incident, even the world competition has been postponed. "
Gu Yucheng nodded quickly, "I have heard of this. But is there any problem with this?"
Wang Zhiwei was a little embarrassed and said, "The fact that the three southern provinces can gradually be recognized, or that the puppet and dual cultivation methods of the southern three provinces can be spread, has something to do with the performance of the southern three provinces in the world competition... I want to prove it. Oneself, the world competition is a good way."
Gu Yucheng nodded, then looked at Wang Zhiwei, "So you want...?"
Wang Zhiwei scratched his head, "If Brother Gu can return from the Demon Kingdom, why not go to Hangu Pass together, so that we can take care of him in the world competition. After all..."
Seeing Gu Yucheng's silence, Wang Zhiwei quickly explained, "If Brother Gu doesn't want to come, that's okay."
Gu Yucheng smiled when he heard this, "These things are still unknown. I don't like making promises to others that will take a long time to be fulfilled. Let's wait until the affairs of my demon country are finished."
Wang Zhiwei nodded when he heard this, stood up and left with Gu Yucheng.
