Chapter 79
Changle County, downtown.
"The thunder just now was..."
Gu Cheng put down the vegetables in his hand, looked up at the sky, and thought about something in his heart.
Then he hurriedly left the vegetable market and returned home.
At this time, Xu Nianxue's room was already empty.
The bedding on the bed was folded neatly, and the room was spotless.
On the table were a letter, a bronze mirror, and a jade box.
Obviously, it was something that the "pet" left for the "owner" before leaving.
Gu Cheng picked up the letter left by Miss Xu, read it quickly, and his expression suddenly became complicated.
According to the letter, Xu Nianxue had been taken away by her aunt.
As for the second part of the martial arts that she owed, she could only wait until Gu Cheng went to Yunzhou City in person to ask her for it.
At the same time, Xu Nianxue repeatedly begged Gu Cheng to keep her treasured "treasures".
In addition.
Xu Nianxue also said that there was a small problem with the fox demon Bai family, and it was very likely that a fox demon would come to seek revenge.
For this reason, she told Gu Cheng to be more careful and left a defensive magic weapon for emergency use.
As for the jade box, it was a reward given to Gu Cheng by her aunt for praising his delicious shrimp dumplings.
"It seems that the thundering sound just now was made by her aunt."
"The fox demon Bai family came to seek revenge?
Strange, weren't those fox demons besieged by the major families in Yunzhou? How could they turn the tide like this?"
Gu Cheng put away the letter, his face gloomy.
It seems that the situation in not only Tianshui County, but the entire Yunzhou has become increasingly severe.
"Alas~ This fucked up world really doesn't let people live in peace for a moment."
Gu Cheng sighed, picked up the bronze mirror magic weapon on the table, and looked at it carefully.
This bronze mirror is about the size of a palm. At first glance, it looks very ordinary, just like the bronze mirror used by girls in the boudoir to put on makeup.
But if you look closely, you can find that various mysterious patterns are engraved on the frame, which perfectly interprets what "low-key luxury" means.
Gu Cheng poured his divine thoughts into the bronze mirror in his hand and urged it with all his strength.
Swish——
The mirror surface of the bronze mirror flashed with fluorescence, and an illusory white light curtain instantly formed in front of him.
Like a shield of light, it protected his entire body behind him.
Gu Cheng stretched out his hand and the bloody aura surged and condensed into a bloody long sword.
Then he grasped the handle of the sword and swung it hard at the white light shield.
Clang——
The sharp blade, wrapped in the monstrous bloody aura, slashed fiercely on the light curtain, making a harsh sound.
Ripples suddenly appeared on the white light shield, and even the brightness dimmed a little, but it still did not dissipate.
Gu Cheng used the same trick again, and slashed twice.
After three consecutive fierce slashes, he finally exceeded the defense limit of the bronze mirror magic weapon.
The white light shield instantly disintegrated into countless pieces like glass and disappeared out of thin air.
"What an amazing defense!" Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with surprise.
After his "Blood Shadow Sword Art" was promoted to a rare martial art, its power was no less than that of ordinary innate swordsmanship, and it was even more powerful when paired with his own blood soldier.
With such a terrifying attack power, this bronze mirror magic weapon can actually withstand three swords.
It should not be a problem for it to defend against the full-strength attack of an innate strongman.
If it is paired with the Immortal Demon Body, Fox Shadow Mystery, and the Thousand Miles Divine Travel Talisman, the survival coefficient will be directly maxed out!
Even facing a top master like General Xu, Gu Cheng had the confidence to run away calmly.
"Such a precious defensive magic weapon, I think it is also one of Xu Nianxue's trump cards?"
Gu Cheng stroked the bronze mirror in his hand, and a soft and charming figure appeared in his mind, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.
Although Miss Xu is careless on weekdays, she treats her friends very well.
Even a thick-skinned person like Gu Cheng felt a little embarrassed.
"Alas, it's not a good thing to always take advantage of her like this...
When I go to Yunzhou City to find her in the future, I must find a chance to repay this favor!"
Gu Cheng muttered to himself, put the bronze mirror magic weapon in his arms, and turned to look at the last jade box.
The material of this jade box is very special, and it seems to have the ability to isolate the perception of divine thoughts, making the things inside even more mysterious.
"What's in it?"
Gu Cheng looked curious and opened the lid of the jade box.
Just as a small crack appeared,
An extremely strong demonic aura instantly spread out, and the whole room trembled violently!
Gu Cheng's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly took off the lid.
He found a blue demon core the size of an egg inside, with a bright and shining gem light on it..
The demonic aura seemed to be real, lingering on this demon core, presenting a series of rippling light and shadows.
Faintly, Gu Cheng also saw the shadow of a monkey from the light and shadow on the demon core.
The ape looked quite ferocious, without a single hair on its body, and had duck-like webbed feet, as if it lived in the water.
"What is this? Is it the demon core of a water monkey?"
"Look at this strong demonic aura, it is obviously from a great demon in the innate realm!"
Gu Cheng couldn't help smacking his lips.
This Miss Xu's aunt is really generous!
He had learned from Xu Nianxue's casual chat that in the big cities outside, the demon cores of demons can be used as general equivalents.
One of the demon cores in the innate realm, even the most ordinary and lowest level, can be exchanged for at least 100,000 taels of silver!
Like the water monkey demon core in the jade box, the quality is very good, and it looks like it has just died.
If it is auctioned in the market of those big cities, it is not a problem to triple or quadruple it!
"Because the shrimp dumplings are delicious, you just rewarded hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?"
"What kind of extremely rich woman is this..."
Gu Cheng scratched his hair, and a strange thought suddenly came to his mind.
It seems that living with a rich woman is not a bad choice...
The lid of the jade box was closed and put into the storage bag.
Gu Cheng sat on the chair and took a deep breath.
Then he looked around and looked at the empty and quiet room. For a while, he was a little uncomfortable.
Gu Cheng can now understand the mood of some shit shovelers after their pets died.
Although those pets are very naughty, they still have to feed them food every day and take care of their daily lives, which takes a lot of thought.
But when one day, the pet suddenly disappeared, the owner's mood was really mixed.
After sitting quietly for a while.
Gu Cheng slowly got up and walked out of the wing room, intending to go to the kitchen to make something to eat.
Dong Dong Dong——
Outside the gate of the Gu family's courtyard, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Is there someone coming again?"
Gu Cheng was puzzled. He opened the door and found that the visitors were the brother and sister of the Xiao family. He was even more surprised.
"Master Gu..."
Xiao Yun bowed and saluted, his expression a little restrained.
"Well, come in and talk first."
Gu Cheng nodded and invited the brother and sister to the living room in the middle hall.
He also used the tea leaves he had used to entertain Lin Qingyan last time to make another pot of hot tea.
The rich tea fragrance filled the air, which made the slightly nervous mood of the brother and sister relax a little.
"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Gu Cheng asked while pouring tea.
The Xiao siblings looked at each other, and then the younger sister spoke first.
"Brother Gu, I heard that you are about to leave Changle County and go to Tianshui City.
We came here to give you this thing as a parting gift..."
After saying that, Xiao Qing'er took off a pendant with a yin-yang fish jade pendant from her neck.
She put the jade pendant in her palm, a hint of reluctance flashed in her eyes, and handed it to Gu Cheng solemnly.
"..."
Gu Cheng looked at this scene full of déjà vu, and couldn't help but look weird.
No way?
Are you two going to give me a set of Xiantian realm exercises too?
Gu Cheng hesitated for a moment, reached out to take the yin-yang fish jade pendant, and injected his mind into it.
The next moment, he actually sensed a huge amount of text information from this jade pendant.
Its content was as vast as the "Four Spirits True Meaning" given to him by Lin Qingyan.
At the same time, a new prompt popped up on the panel in Gu Cheng's mind:
[Innate Yin-Yang Absolute Immortal Hand: Not yet started]
