Gu Yucheng's wrists were clamped and he was half dragged and half dragged to a bamboo house.
Looking at the green, fragrant and elegant bamboo house in front of him, Gu Yucheng temporarily suppressed his doubts. Then he looked up and was surprised to find a row of elders standing in front of him. They were all monks who had previously secretly observed Gu Yucheng.
As for the Ningding Realm monk who was just detected, he was not in the open.
In the bamboo house. The specific number of people is unclear.
Gu Yucheng was followed by many members of the Lion Set clan.
Under attack from both sides, Gu Yucheng felt that the Beishi Clan wanted to interrogate him.
Probably feeling that the atmosphere was too cold, Pan Zongzhen smiled slightly and said, "Don't be afraid, Mr. Gu."
Gu Yucheng didn't say anything, but seemed calm.
Pan Zongzhen didn't feel dissatisfied and told the clan members in front of him, "Don't stay here all the time! Since Gu Lichang is a guest invited by our Shishi Clan, he naturally has to rest for a few days! You all have the opportunity to fulfill your duties as a host." !”
Everyone was even more happy when they heard this, and they all shouted loudly and dispersed like birds escaping from their nests. They were in twos, threes, and in groups, but they vacated the scene in the blink of an eye.
There are only six elders left, four women and two men. Except for Pan Zongzhen, who always smiled cordially, the other five elders had expressions as ugly as dead people and looked stiff.
Gu Yucheng didn't speak, waiting for the other person to clarify his attitude first.
After a moment of confrontation, Pan Zongzhen turned around and dismantled the five elders: "Do you really think that Chief Gu is scared? If you have anything to say, just say it. Why make the atmosphere so sinister?"
The five elders couldn't help but glared at Pan Zongzhen angrily.
Pan Zongzhen went his own way, picked up Gu Yucheng and left.
The five elders had an unusually tacit understanding, and they opened their mouths to stop him, but the next moment they seemed to remember something, and they all shivered.
But Gu Yucheng knew the reason: the monks in the bamboo house sent a message to stop the five people.
Those Ningding monks only thought that Gu Yucheng's cultivation level was insignificant, and they were not too subtle when transmitting the message, so they were naturally detected by Gu Yucheng with ancient spiritual power.
Pan Zongzhen pulled Gu Yucheng into another bamboo forest.
Gu Yucheng knew that Pan Zongzhen was much more difficult to deal with than the five of them just now, but he could not discount Pan Zongzhen's apparent good intentions. In addition, he really had doubts in his heart and wanted to find out, so after the two of them walked to a quiet place in the forest He took the initiative to say, "There are so many bamboos on Dongning Island."
The opening words were too dull, but at least he had a reason to answer. Pan Zongzhen nodded matter-of-factly, "Dongning Island has the most bamboos."
Gu Yucheng looked interested, "Is there a second one?"
Pan Zongzhen curled up into a smile, "The second most numerous is naturally the monk surnamed Pan. - Does Chief Gu know why this is?"
Gu Yucheng shook his head, "Of course I don't know this. I hope Elder Pan can give me some advice."
Pan Zongzhen seemed to be very happy and explained happily, "In the past, when the Shang Kingdom was not shrinking in Hangu Pass, it gave surnames to the tribes to show their win over. Among them, the surname Pan with 'water, rice and fields' was the most popular among the monks. , all those with some ability took Pan as their surname. Later, some monks would even change their surname to Pan privately."
A flash of inspiration flashed in Gu Yucheng's mind, and it broke again in an instant, and he had to return to the conversation, "So that's it."
The perfunctory conversation ended in vain, and the scene fell into silence again.
Pan Zongzhen had long regarded Gu Yucheng as a caged beast. Although he was wary of it, he did not take it seriously. He remained silent for a moment and then smiled again and said, "Chang Gu has also seen the hospitality of the Beishi tribe. As the person who led Gu Lichang here personally, I Elders naturally have the responsibility to take care of the chief."
Pan Zongzhen paused his words and saw that Gu Yucheng behaved normally and showed no discomfort. Then he smiled and said, "If Gu Li has any questions, you can ask them freely. Whatever I know, I will definitely answer."
Gu Yucheng was alert: the clear conversation just now was not enough to listen to, it was all just a show-off by the two of them to test each other. Now that Pan Zongzhen was given the opportunity, he naturally wanted to remove his disguise and make both parties reveal their true intentions.
Gu Yucheng was in a different place, and his cultivation level was no more than four-star Enlightenment. He was not qualified to argue. He immediately seized the opportunity and asked, "I have stayed in the Nanshi Clan for a few days, and I am quite curious about the attitude of the Nanshi Clan. I don't know Pan." Can the elders clear up my doubts?"
Pan Zongzhen showed his boldness and nodded in response, "What's the point? - The Nanshi clan is very close to us, and I know a little bit about many things."
"We all have our own thoughts about Gu Lichang and others, and the root cause of these thoughts is that Gu Lichang is not his own." Pan Zongzhen saw Gu Yucheng's doubts on his face, and kept smiling as he explained, "Gu Lichang is not his own." The leader is from the Demon Country. You represent the Demon Country."
Gu Yucheng suddenly understood, and then asked, "I wonder what the idea of establishing a clan between the northern and southern lions is...?"
Pan Zongzhen sighed quietly, seemingly unintentionally bringing out a touch of sadness, "I think the Demon Congress sent monks to Dongning Island for a mission, right?"
Gu Yucheng calmly said, "Search for night dew drops and present them to Your Majesty."
Pan Zongzhen was thoughtful, as if he had gotten some important information, and looked secretly happy, "The Southern Lion clan is more worried about being involved in the disputes between the demon kingdom, or being used by the demon kingdom, and they also don't want to be hostile to the demon kingdom. So they have an attitude toward Gu Lichang. Lukewarm, in a wait-and-see mode.”
Gu Yucheng frowned slightly, "I heard Pan Shangde's words. The Beishi Clan is very close to me?"
Pan Zongzhen corrected, "You don't need to listen to Pan Shangde's words. You have seen everything with your own eyes. How can it be false? Even if we get along for a short time, you can still see our hospitality, right?"
Gu Yucheng had a grudge in his heart, "I want to know the reason. It's normal for Nanshi to have concerns about setting up a clan..."
Pan Zongzhen spoke for Gu Yucheng, "You want to know why the Beishi clan has no fear or scruples?"
Gu Yucheng nodded.
Pan Zongzhen is free and easy and generous, "There are two kinds of raw and cooked islands in Dongning Island. I think Gu Lichang knew that. The cooked ones are more close to the mainland, while the raw ones prefer to be isolated from the world."
"The closer to the wilderness land, the more tribes are affected and the more mature tribes are affected. Therefore, the closer the geographical location is to the northwest, the closer to the wilderness. The further to the southeast, the more the original ethnic characteristics are retained. Like the Pingshu tribe, even the entire tribe Proficient in Chinese.”
"The Beishi tribe has always been close to the wilderness." Pan Zongzhen looked at Gu Yucheng. "In recent years, the power of the Pingshu tribe has been increasing day by day. The arrival of the monks from the Demon Kingdom has further fueled the arrogance of the Pingshu tribe."
Gu Yucheng felt a little relieved, "You want to use me to control the Pingshu clan?"
Pan Zongzhen smiled lightly and nodded slowly.
Gu Yucheng pondered for a moment and asked again, "Elder Pan really thinks I can do it?"
Pan Zongzhen's eyes flashed, "We all believe this."
Gu Yucheng was still thinking, and Pan Zongzhen first suggested, "Gu Lichang has been here a lot, so why should he go and rest first? - This is my psychic jade. Gu Lichang can call me when he is free."
Gu Yucheng took the psychic jade and asked, "The companion who came with me?"
Pan Zongzhen had already predicted, "I have already sent people to the Nanshi clan to welcome him, and they will arrive later. Then he will be sent directly to Gu Li's residence. - Gu Li, please follow me first."
After hearing the words, Gu Yucheng followed in a muffled voice, but he was constantly thinking about Pan Zongzhen's words.
Pan Zongzhen's words were reasonable, but they were too reasonable and made Gu Yucheng suspicious.
When Gu Yucheng followed Pan Zongzhen to a bamboo house, Gu Yucheng had vaguely noticed some problems, but he couldn't grasp the key and couldn't see where the real desire under the surface was.
