Walking in the quiet town, occasionally I see a few children wandering in the empty streets, or taking off their pants to pee on the side of the street.
However, adults are rarely seen.
Xu Qi'an speculates that these children are still weak, and they don't need to hide themselves every day to alleviate the side effects of the dark gu.
In the future, when they grow up and their abilities improve, they will become like their parents, hiding in corners every day.
"Could it be that Grandma Tiangu said that the "economic situation" of the Dark Gu Department is not good, so it's no wonder that it can be good, and most of the time is wasted on meaningless hide-and-seek." Xu Qi'an muttered to himself. . .
When he first got the Qijue Gu, he only felt that the side effects of the dark Gu were very troublesome, and he had to take time to hide himself every day, and it took him an hour or two to hide.
I never imagined that if people of one race were like this, it would actually be a "disaster".
"Actually, you can hide at night, it doesn't have to be during the day."
Xu Qi'an said.
The young men on the patrol nodded repeatedly:
"Of course there are people who hide at night, but most of them are unmarried. Those who have families don't have time at night.
"In addition, the higher the level, the purpose of hiding is not just to eliminate the side effects, you are also a master of dark gu, you should understand."
Side effects are the most basic needs of dark Gu. If you want to increase your cultivation and cultivate dark Gu, you have to actively hide in the shadows and feel the power of dark Gu.
While speaking, he saw Xu Qian staring at the shadow under his feet, so he smiled and said:
"You read that right, the rest of the patrol team is hiding in the shadow of my crotch."
What a god, the shadow under the crotch, are you people in the Dark Gu Department living under the cover Xu Qi'an almost couldn't help but spit it out.
Passing through the quiet alleys, the two approached the center of the town, where the population was much denser, pedestrians in twos and threes shuttled through the empty streets, and there were shops on both sides.
Xu Qi'an saw that among these passers-by, there were people from the Central Plains and southern Xinjiang, wearing ragged clothes, no better than refugees from the Central Plains.
The main reason is that most of these pedestrians do not have dark Gu in their bodies.
"They are slaves, some were captured from the Central Plains, and some were some unruly southern Xinjiang tribes. They were wiped out by us, and the population was divided equally among the seven tribes."
The young man on patrol said:
"These slaves are valuable labor in our clan."
Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment, and said: "The Gu people often conduct population trade with the Central Plains caravan."
The four words of population trade made the young man stunned for a while before he understood, saying:
"That's right.
"The caravans in the Central Plains know that we are short of people, so they often send people to southern Xinjiang in exchange for some unique herbs, wood, ores, etc. in southern Xinjiang."
Most of those people were abductedXu Qi'an thought of the ancestor of the Chai family. When the ancestor was young, his family was wiped out by his enemies, and he himself was sold to the Southern Border Corpse Gu Department as a slave.
Later, he fled back to the Central Plains somehow, and established a sect in his hometown in Xiangzhou.
By the way, I still have to ask You Shi for the map. The half of the map of the ancestor of the Chai family is in the Shigu Department At this time, Xu Qi'an saw a big house with the words "Southern Xinjiang" on the plaque. Word.
"This is the chief's mansion, Xu Yinluo, please come in."
Stepping into the mansion, Xu Qi'an glanced at the layout of the compound. A bluestone paved road leads to the inner courtyard. On the left side of the road are water tanks covered with wooden boards.
On the right side are deep pits with narrow diameters.
There are people hiding in the pits and vatsXu Qi'an withdrew his gaze, followed the young man and continued to go deeper. After walking for a while, he didn't see a single person.
It wasn't until they entered the inner hall that Xu Qi'an saw the shadow of the leader of the dark gu department in black, sitting at the main seat, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
He has not seen the sun all year round, so his pale face shows a little smile:
"The tea is ready, please sit down, Xu Yinluo."
It is the etiquette of the Central Plains to serve tea when meeting guests.
After Xu Qian took his seat, he said again:
"Wait a minute, I have sent someone to invite the elders, and I cannot make the decision on sending troops alone."
This is something that was initially discussed during the battle yesterday.
During half a cup of tea, eight shadows emerged from the bottom of the table and turned into eight middle-aged or elderly elders in the inner hall.
"The leader has already told us that Xu Yinluo wants to invite members of the Angu tribe to go north to help Dafeng fight against the Yunzhou rebels."
The gray-haired old man seemed to be the Great Elder, and said in a slow tone:
&nbs?? combination.
People come and go in the city, and the trade is quite developed.
The only weird thing is that the bearers who carry the sedan chair have all white eyes, and there must be one or two walking corpses beside the living people, acting as followers and coolies.
In the market where people come and go, two-thirds are walking dead.
This is very scary.
Who would have thought that a group of iron and simple force Gu tribes would actually have the most normal painting style of the Gu tribe, second only to the Heavenly Gu tribe Xu Qi'an sighed silently.
Because of deliberately exposing his breath, he immediately attracted Youshi's attention, and was invited into the Sanjin compound in the center of the city.
The servants in the yard came and went, doing their own work, and the patrolling guards all had white pupils.
The walking dead get along well with the living.
After entering the inner courtyard, Xu Qi'an saw many scantily clad maidservants. They seemed to be used to it without any sense of shame.
Xu Qi'an waited in the living room for a while, You Shi came late, and said lightly:
"Let's talk about the conditions directly."
He didn't come directly, but manipulated the walking corpse to meet Xu Qi'an.
Xu Qi'an looked at him and said with a smile:
"Did it disturb your elegant mood?"
With his current cultivation base, You Shi can clearly hear the movement of the maidservant inside.
"You Shi" said lightly:
"This is the best way to restrain the side effects of corpse gu. Whenever you can't help but think about what will happen to the corpse, there are a few scantily clad maids around, which can be a good diversion.
"When you vent your desire on them, you won't be interested in walking corpses for a long time."
Cleverly using the sage's time to resist the side effects of corpse gu Xu Qi'an nodded slightly.
The Corpse Gu Department is relatively rich, so it did not raise the price like the Dark Gu Department, but You Shi added a condition that Xu Qi'an must keep the ancient corpse in the Corpse Gu Department during his stay in southern Xinjiang.
When to leave the Gu clan, and then take away the ancient corpse.
Listening to You Shiqiang's calm, but actually extremely eager tone, Xu Qi'an mused:
"Yes, but I also have a condition."
"But it's okay to say." You Shi said immediately.
"I once traveled to Xiangzhou, where there was a Chai family who learned the secret technique of the Corpse Gu Department and could make iron corpses"
Xu Qi'an told You Shi about the Chai family's situation, "Do you have any impression?"
The ancestors of the Chai family have been more than one hundred years ago.
You Shi recalled for a moment, nodded and said:
"There is such a slave. That was when my father was the leader. If I remember correctly, he seems to have exchanged half a roll of maps for his freedom."
The maps that Xu Pingfeng deliberately collected are definitely not simpleXu Qi'an said:
"I need that half roll of maps."
You Shi pondered for a moment:
"Okay, but I have a request."
Matryoshka is prohibited Xu Qi'an nodded: "But it doesn't matter."
"If you can unlock the secret of the map in the future, I hope you can tell me."
After Xu Qi'an nodded in agreement, Youshi said: "Wait a minute!"
Ten minutes later, a walking corpse with white eyes entered the living room, holding a black wooden box in his hand. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
