Chapter 638: Rumors of Ancient Corpses
"I'm Mo Datou, what's the matter with Xiaoyou?"
An old man in the corner, unaffected by gravity and smoking a dry cigarette, said calmly.
Gu Chen looked at him and found that this person's head was extremely big, no wonder he had such a nickname.
He retracted his gravity and walked slowly towards Mo's head.
The demon cultivators who were suppressed on the ground were relieved for a while, and hurriedly got up, not daring to stand in Gu Chen's way.
They have been licking blood on the tip of the knife all year round, and they have always looked at people with a vicious eye, knowing that the young man in front of them is not easy to deal with, and they can't take advantage of him, so they don't dare to investigate the previous matter.
The tavern quickly regained its hustle and bustle, as if nothing had just happened.
Gu Chen came to Mo Datou and sat down, "I was introduced by Elder Tan, and I want to ask Daoyou for help if I have something." ”
"I don't know what's going on? Mo Datou replied with a smile.
"The fire in the ancient city of Lukang more than two years ago, about the information about the dead Nagu people, I want to know, the more detailed the better. ”
Mo Datou's eyes suddenly showed contemplation, "More than two years ago, almost all the monks related to that incident were killed by the Gu clan, even if there were fish that slipped through the net, they didn't dare to talk about it, lest the Gu clan find the door again, and it would be difficult to find clues." ”
"Money is not an issue. Gu Chen said indifferently.
Mo Datou smiled, "It's not about money, it's just that it's not peaceful outside recently, and I have sent out a lot of manpower, so it's difficult to investigate this matter, and I'm afraid it will take a lot of time." ”
"How long will it take?" Gu Chen's brows furrowed.
"It will take half a month at the earliest, and it is not surprising that it will take several months. ”
This speed made Gu Chen very dissatisfied, and now his whereabouts had been revealed, and the longer he delayed, the more variables he had.
It's just that he has no better way but to say. "Okay, you investigate this matter as soon as possible, and if you can complete the task within half a month, you will be paid double the reward. ”
"Okay, it's done. Mo Datou said happily and poured Gu Chen a glass of wine.
"Actually, if you are in a hurry to understand this, there is a way that may be faster. ”
"I want to hear about it. ”
"Almost all of the people who drink in my tavern are the local snakes of the ancient city of Lukang, and they know everything that happens here, and some of them may know about it. ”
"It's just that you offended them by your actions just now, I'm afraid it's ......," Mo Datou said in a stunned tone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have offended a lot before, but today I have paid for your wine, so let's have a good drink. ”
Gu Chen's voice spread throughout the tavern.
"Good!
"I'm going to have a good time!"
The demon cultivators in the tavern immediately cheered.
"My wine here isn't cheap. Mo Datou looked at Gu Chen in surprise, the person introduced by Lao Tan had an aura that was a little unusual.
"I'm not short of money. Gu Chen replied crisply.
......
In the next few days, Gu Chen soaked in Mo Datou's tavern all day long.
While he was waiting for the results of Mo Datou's investigation, he also took the initiative to contact the ground snake here.
Because of his generosity, drinking and drinking, many people soon knew that there was a young demon cultivator named Chen Gu here.
Gu Chen blended into the environment of the Sen Demon Sea, and he found that although the demon cultivators here were fierce and insidious, at least they didn't play the hypocritical and pretentious set of the Immortal Sect cultivators, which was quite his appetite.
He chatted with many monks from all over the world, and although he didn't get any clues about his father, he gained a lot of knowledge.
The demon cultivators talk about it every day, and this is the distribution center of the information of the Forest Demon Sea.
"Recently, the news from the depths of the Forest Demon Sea has caused a lot of uproar, saying that a mysterious ancient corpse has appeared there, roaming the land, causing trouble to many people. ”
"I have also heard about this, it is said that there is far more than one wandering ancient corpse, and its strength is extremely powerful, and many sects have been planted in their hands. ”
"A few days ago, the people of Wicked Man Ridge seemed to have encountered an ancient corpse in the depths, and it is said that they suffered heavy losses, and even Old Man Tan, who had not been involved in the affairs of Wicked Man Ridge for a long time, was called back, which shows how serious the situation is. ”
The most talked-about thing in the past few days was a rumor from the depths of the Deep Demon Sea.
Gu Chen knew from them why Tan Lao left in a hurry that day, and also knew his identity.
He is a member of the Villain Ridge, the most famous force in the Deep Demon Sea, and is said to be one of the Eight Great Evildoers.
Gu Chen listened with interest to the rumors about the ancient corpse, these things sounded bizarre, and they were currently only circulating among a small number of demon cultivators in the Deep Demon Sea.
"Where did those ancient corpses come from? They are said to be extremely powerful, and almost all the people who encounter them are dead. ”
"It's just alarmist, if everyone you meet is dead, how can this news spread? In my opinion, maybe some of the guys are playing tricks. ”
Some people are worried, others scoff.
"Don't underestimate those wandering corpses, winter is coming! their number is increasing, and the range of wandering is gradually expanding, sooner or later they will sweep the entire Forest Demon Sea, and we will all lose our lives!"
A drunken monk in the corner, who was drunk, suddenly shouted loudly, and when he had finished speaking, he lay down on the table and fell asleep.
Everyone laughed when they saw this, and Gu Chen also laughed and said nothing.
After staying in the tavern for many days and getting acquainted with his face, a middle-aged man with a thief's eyebrows took the initiative to find Gu Chen.
"I heard that you are inquiring about the news of the Gu clan two years ago?" he asked Gu Chen in a low voice.
Gu Chen's eyes lit up slightly, he had been waiting for the rabbit for so long, had he finally gained something?
He nodded, and the middle-aged man smiled. "I know that there is a person who has personally experienced that incident, but he is my friend, and he hides this matter very deeply, lest the Gu people also trouble him. Therefore, if I tell you......"
"How much do you want to be paid?" Gu Chen interrupted him.
The middle-aged man suddenly cautiously reported a number.
"Yes. Gu Chen replied flatly.
"Also, I won't take you to him personally, and you can't say that I told you about it when you find him. The middle-aged man reminded.
Gu Chen agreed to all his conditions, and in order to show his sincerity, he also gave half of the remuneration first.
"What about the other half?" the middle-aged man was holding a large bag of Yuan Jing with a happy face.
"The other half of the remuneration will be paid when you are sure that what you say is true. Gu Chen replied.
He won't give him all the money based on a few words from the other party, and the remaining half of the remuneration, depending on the truth or falsehood of what he said, may be Yuan Jing or a sharp sword piercing his throat.
"Yes, you can. Listen, that man's nickname is War Ghost, and he is the worship of the Wind Demon Auction House in the city. He is extremely strong, he is a monk of the Dharma Body Realm, and he is also considered the number one person in the Forest Demon Sea, so it is best to be cautious when you go to him to ask questions. ”
The middle-aged man was afraid that Gu Chen would not be able to come back if he went, so he reminded.
Gu Chen carefully recorded what the other party said, and for the first time in many days, he left the tavern and went directly to the auction house where the war ghost was.
