Chapter 978

Gu Zheng didn't ask for speed, plus Gluttony always ran out to play by himself, Wu You didn't dare to go too fast, so it was only dozens of miles a day, this was still a bad place on the road, Gu Zheng and Gluttony could directly bring the carriage over, otherwise it would be slower.

Here, Gu Zheng deeply realized an old saying, there is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road.

Many roads here are walked out by people, and when there is really no road, they can only walk on their own, and when they encounter a place where there are people, they will exchange their prey for something they need, or spend the night, and when there is no one, they will camp in the wild by themselves.

Within a few days, I changed enough coarse cloth for tents, Gu Zheng remade two tents, and the bedding and other items that were originally gone, now all of them have been purchased, and Gu Zheng also made a new set of bone needles for Aunt Cui, this time using not ordinary bones, but the bones of a demon beast.

Gluttony went out to play, accidentally found half of the monster's corpse bones, although it is not a powerful monster, but its bones are much stronger than ordinary beasts, Gu Zheng estimates, this monster's strength should have reached the heavenly immortals during his lifetime, and I don't know who I offended, I was killed, and the body was thrown here.

This monster must have been killed, there are still scars on the bones, how it died has nothing to do with Gu Zheng, but its bones are very useful, in addition to making bone needles, Gu Zheng also made more than a dozen bone arrows, which are much sharper than ordinary wooden arrows.

The bone arrow was naturally for Wu You, and Wu You made a bow by himself on the way, but unfortunately it was just an ordinary beast tendon, and in the future, with better raw materials, Gu Zheng made him a better and more powerful bow.

The remaining bones have been made into barbecue tools by Gu Zheng, and he now has fewer tools in his hands, and there is no shortage of barbecue meat on the road, such a set of bones is very suitable, and it is more resistant to high temperatures than iron.

In addition to this half of the demon bones, Gu Zheng also hunted an elephant, a real elephant.

He didn't know how there were elephants here, he happened to encounter more than one, but a herd, but he only hunted one, and it was useless to take more, and he couldn't take it away, one was enough.

Ivory made him grind out several sets of chopsticks, he had never used such ivory chopsticks when he was on earth before, but he didn't expect to use them here.

Gu Zheng also made six ivory dice in a prank, and made six-sided dots with the paint in exchange, but he didn't expect to fall in love with a new toy all of a sudden, and pulled Wu to play the dice every day, and finally Aunt Cui came to catch the car.

It is worth mentioning that the carriage was finally painted and looked much more beautiful, and when there were people on the road, there were people who did what the carriage did and how it cost.

The paint painted by Gu Zheng himself is, of course, much more beautiful than the current carriage.

"Master, the front is Wujia Town, and when you arrive at Wujia Town, it is only more than a thousand miles away from Huiyuan Village!"

After walking for more than a month, I finally got closer and closer to Huiyuan Village, Huiyuan Village is Aunt Cui's village, at this time Aunt Cui's heart was also a little excited, although the life outside is not bad, but it is not as good as her own home.

In the past month or so, Gu Zheng's Immortal Immortal Recipe has improved a little, reaching the fifth percentage, and it is one step closer to the realm of the fourth layer.

At the beginning, on the earth, Gu Zheng's cultivation didn't feel so slow, mainly with the help of the instrument spirit, especially the Immortal Yuan Dan, the Gu Zheng who would be almost stumbling on medicine was cultivating, so the cultivation was very fast, and it didn't take long to become a heavenly immortal, and now he was completely relying on his own cultivation, Gu Zheng finally understood the difficulty of cultivation.

Other immortal cultivators, or demon cultivators, if they knew that he had such thoughts, I am afraid that they would have strangled his heart.

Even if it is in the flood famine, if the average immortal cultivator wants to cultivate into an immortal, it usually takes several decades, unless the gate sect has enough resources to spare no effort to cultivate disciples to the famous sect of Shushan in later generations, so that they can cultivate in a short time, but even so, it can't be done in a year, and it basically takes a few years.

Gu Zheng came here as a gluttonous immortal, and it was only a year to be full, and he was already very close to the realm of heavenly immortals, according to his progress, even if it was a little slower, he would inevitably break through in two years, but he was not satisfied, and if others knew, I am afraid that they would definitely shout that there is no reason.

Another point, there are very few sects now, most of them are people who have achieved cultivation, find a blessed land with abundant immortal power, and then bring a few disciples to cultivate, such a scale must be more resourceful than a large number of famous sects, so the cultivation speed is not much faster than that of casual cultivation.

In the midst of casual cultivation, if you are lucky, your cultivation speed will be faster than theirs.

"Let's stay here today, you can look and see, and see if you can find a suitable person to stay with us for the night!"

Gu Zheng had already seen the village in front of him, and commanded Wu You, the tent can be lived, but when there is a house, he still wants to live in the house, which is better than being in the wild.

Wu You immediately got out of the carriage, trotted all the way forward, and went to the village to inquire first, and when they entered the village, Wu You had already found a family and promised to keep them staying.

This kind of thing is very easy to do, they now have all kinds of resources, furs, a lot of meat, take out some good things, a lot of people want to keep them, just live in two rooms for one night, you can harvest a fur, this is definitely a good thing for them.

Along the way, Wu You here has at least fifty or sixty skins of various animals, most of which are hunted out of food, and they can't eat a lot of meat at all, so they can only throw it away, including the elephant, only a few are left, and most of them are also thrown away.

Aunt Cui was heartbroken for a long time, but she also understood that the carriage could not be loaded, and it was impossible to take it all away, except for bringing some delicious food, it was more cost-effective to load the carriage with fur.

Fur is the same as cloth, in fact, in many places, it can be used as currency.

Wu You is looking for a big family in the town, the big families at this time are different from later generations, especially in the village, that is, the wealthier people, there are slightly more houses, unlike many big families in later generations, they are all village tyrants in the village, like this 'big family' In fact, there are several in the village.

Gu Zheng and the four of them lived in a small courtyard, and they did everything by themselves, Aunt Cui cleaned up everything, and Gu Zheng made something at will, and the day was over.

"Hurry up, the bandits are coming, the bandits are coming!"

Gu Zheng was cultivating in the middle of the night, there was a sudden shouting outside, and someone was beating the gong, Gu Zheng opened his eyes, Tao had already jumped up, he and Tao walked out of the door, Wu You was already standing in the courtyard, and he was still holding a waist knife in his hand.

At this time, there were also bandits, in fact, as long as there are people, this kind of people are indispensable, even when the life of the earth is good in the future, there are similar people, but there are many less.

The poorer you are, the more bandits.

"Wu You, you go out and see what's going on, pay attention to safety!"

Gu Zheng commanded Wu You, Wu You immediately nodded, put the bow and bone arrow on his back, and then went out with a waist knife, and when he went out, Aunt Cui also got up, looking a little flustered.

"Bandits, are there bandits here too?"

In fact, there are bandits on the back source of the village, but there are not many of them, and the back source village has its own defense force, and the bandits have been there a few times, but they have not taken advantage of it and have suffered a lot of casualties, so they will never go again.

Bandits are also bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, Wujia Town is smaller than Huiyuan Village, it is estimated that they are targeted by bandits, and bandits are all the same in the world.

After a while, Wu You ran back with a solemn expression.

"Master, there are really bandits outside the village, and there are a lot of them, I just looked at it, there are hundreds of torches, and the young people in the village have already gone to the entrance of the village with weapons, and they are confronting each other there, it seems that the bandits just want to ask for some benefits, and they will leave!"

The bandits did not enter the village, but were negotiating with the people in the village outside the village, Gu Zheng frowned at first, then his brows stretched and he smiled.

"Are you sure there are hundreds of people?" asked Gu Zheng softly.

"Can't be wrong, it's densely packed, there are a lot of bandits here, and I don't know when there will be such a bandit den here!"

Wu You nodded quickly, hundreds of bandits, the threat is really not small, there are not hundreds of young people in Wujia Town, and the bandits are all fierce, and they are prepared, the ordinary fence in Wujia Town is okay to block some animals, and it is absolutely impossible to stop these bandits.

"Torches, it doesn't necessarily mean people, let's go out and have a look!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and walked out after speaking, Gluttony followed him all the time, Wu You was stunned, and after Aunt Cui also went out, he immediately followed.

Most of the people in the village arrived at the entrance of the village, all nervous, including the family who took in Gu Zheng.

"Why did you come out, I really didn't expect that it would bring you trouble today!"

The head of the family was a man in his fifties, who was also holding a wooden stick, and when he saw Gu Zheng and them, he immediately stepped forward to say hello to Wu You, and he looked very sorry.

This person is not bad-hearted, and at this time, he can still think that they have involved a few people in Gu Zheng.

"It's okay, don't worry!"

Wu You first secretly glanced at Gu Zheng, and then said with a grin, since Gu Zheng came out, it was naturally impossible to watch these bandits make trouble, with Gu Zheng here, he didn't have any worries at all.

At this time, he sighed at the good fortune of the people in this village, if they hadn't stayed here today, the people in this village might have been really unlucky, if they encountered murderous bandits, the whole village might be slaughtered, this kind of thing has not been done before.

"How can you rest assured!"

The head of the house looked sad, there were indeed hundreds of torches in the distance, shining in the darkness, and the representative of the bandits was opening his mouth to the lion, asking for a lot of things, and there were not so many in the village.

"Little doll, you, why are you going!"

As soon as the bandits who were negotiating went back, Gu Zheng suddenly took a few steps forward, and suddenly walked to the front of the crowd, and was still walking forward, the head of the family was stunned, hurriedly shouted, and grabbed Wu You.

"Quick, look at your doll!"

Gu Zheng is like this, he is a child, Wu You is also very helpless, as long as people who don't know Gu Zheng, they will treat him as a child, or even as their own child, this family is, I have said before that I envy him for having such a pair of sons.

At that time, Wu You didn't dare to agree, only said that he was his son-in-law, he took his son-in-law out to play, and now he is going home.

"It's fine!"

Wu You shook his head, Gu Zheng is an immortal, how could these mortals endanger the immortals, he really didn't worry at all.

"Little doll, don't go over!"

"Come back, danger!"

The surrounding villagers are also shouting, but this will be Gu Zheng has already gone away, don't look at him small, he is not slow.

It didn't take long for the people on the other side to notice a doll coming over from the village, and the people who were still wary at first laughed when they saw Gu Zheng.

"You fools, if you don't agree to our conditions, we will slaughter the village, why send a doll over first, and we won't eat the doll!"

"That's it, don't think of us as the same as Wang Dazui, no matter how hungry we are, even if we starve to death, we won't eat people!"

The bandits laughed loudly, teasing the villagers, but they didn't expect that their words saved their lives.

"What do you want, I still have more than fifty hides of all kinds, including seventeen or eighteen porcupine skins, do you want them?"

Gu Zheng stopped as he approached, and asked with a smile, and when he said this, the bandits immediately quieted down, and their eyes lit up.

There are more than fifty animal skins, and there are seventeen or eighteen porcupine skins, which is a lot of wealth, and with these things, they can exchange for a lot of food, and they will not go hungry again.

"Yes, why not, quickly, let your family bring it!"

There were already two people running over, trying to catch Gu Zheng, but unfortunately, as soon as they got closer, the people flew back, and even they didn't know how to fly.

"Bumper!"

Both of them fell to the ground, both screaming there, not getting up.

The villagers here didn't know what was going on, they only heard that Gu Zheng had reported a lot of wealth, and many people were still annoyed, why did such a stupid outsider come to the village today, saying that there are so many things, if they can't get it, wouldn't it completely anger these bandits.

Then, they heard two dull sounds, and the screams of the two people, many people looked at each other inexplicably, the bandits were hundreds of meters away from them, if it was daytime, it was fine, they could see clearly, but at night, they could only see the bright light on the opposite side, and people could not see clearly.

"Sure enough, it's all fake!"

Gu Zheng had already walked among the bandits, looked around, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

There were only about twenty people here, and the rest were torches made up of thick branches, which looked like people in the distance.

From the very beginning, Wu You went back to report, Gu Zheng thought of this possibility, how could hundreds of bandits come to attack the village at night, you must know that the defense of the village at night is weak, but they can't see clearly, and it is easy to accidentally hurt their own people.

With so many people, the day is enough.

Also, so many people are still negotiating with the village and asking for things, even if it is night, this village can't resist their attack, at this time Gu Zheng guessed that there was fraud in it, he just came to take a look, and the result was exactly the same as he guessed.

There are not so many bandits at all, eighty percent of them are fake, such a few people, of course, do not dare to storm the village, nor dare to come during the day, as soon as they come, they will be completely goofed.

"What's the matter with you guys?"

The bandits were all shocked, the bandit leader was a big man, very powerful, the bandit leader of this year, he must have a certain strength, otherwise he would not be able to suppress those under him.

"I don't know, we haven't caught the doll yet, we just felt a strong force grab me, and then I couldn't move, and then I flew over!"

A person reluctantly sat up, rubbed his body there, and said quickly, Gu Zheng didn't pay attention to these people, walked around, and then laughed.

"You say, if I tell the other side that you are just such a person, what will be the consequences?"

There are only twenty-two of them together, and just now two of them were injured by him, although there are not a hundred young people on the opposite side, there are still fifty or sixty people, plus the rest of the village, the men are hundreds, and these hundreds of people all rushed out with sticks, and they couldn't resist it.

After all, they are also ordinary people, not soldiers, bandit fights are purely melee, at most they have knives, but not everyone of these twenty people has knives, there are only five or six, and the rest are sticks and forks.

The fork is still a wooden fork.

"You, who the hell are you?"

The bandit leader didn't dare to underestimate Gu Zheng, Gu Zheng's current performance didn't look like a doll at all, especially when his subordinates suddenly flew back, which made him very jealous.

"It doesn't matter who I am, looking at your arrangement, I can be regarded as a person with a bit of brains, why do I have to be a bandit?"

Gu Zheng said lightly, to come up with such a trick to deceive the villagers, and the bold lion opened his mouth to ask for something, this is not a simple-minded bandit, this kind of thing is not very clever on the earth in the future, but now it is a flood famine, or the early stage of the flood famine, Gu Zheng dares to guarantee that this is definitely what he came up with.

It's good that I've never been able to come up with such an idea, at least the bandit leader is a brave and resourceful man, not just by strength.

"Why should I answer you, who are you?"

The bandit leader is still vigilant, and several men with knives have surrounded Gu Zheng, but no one dares to move, Gu Zheng is too calm, so he is either relying on it, or he is a fool.

But the accident of the two subordinates just now made him understand that Gu Zheng was definitely not a fool, so he was very nervous, even if he surrounded him with someone with a knife, he didn't have any sense of security in his heart.

"You can not answer, but don't regret it!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, his body suddenly disappeared, and then several people with knives all screamed, all the knives in their hands were taken off, and their arms couldn't be lifted.

Not only them, but the rest of the bandits were all subdued by Gu Zheng, who did not ban them, but just dislocated them and couldn't use their strength, so they didn't have any threat to the villagers.

"Now, I'm willing to answer!"

Gu Zheng walked in front of the bandit leader, and the bandit leader was given additional hospitality by him, not only did he dislocate his arm, but he couldn't move his legs, and was lying on the ground, but he didn't wail, just looked at Gu Zheng in horror.
