Chapter 324

Gu Shun looked around the situation in the cave. After he thought about it, he followed the disciple to leave the cave.

As soon as he stepped out of the cave, a thunder slashed at a place not far above the heads of the two. The whole mountain trembled, and some broken stones slid down the cave wall.

Looking at the rocks rolling down the mountain, Gu Shun quickly pushed the disciples walking in front away, and he also flashed to the side. The next second, several charred stones the size of millstones hit the ground.

"What a damn danger. The stone was struck by lightning. God really wanted to let the things in the cave die." The disciple spat in fear. He originally wanted to scold Gu Shun for being too slow in doing things. But now Gu Shun saved his life, he couldn't say anything more and urged Gu Shun to take a few steps quickly and continue to carry the ice.

Shortly after the two left the cave, the roar of the insects in the cave suddenly became extremely sharp and harsh, as if the whimper and howling of a female ghost in the middle of the night, accompanied by this breathtaking ghost cry, it was like the dull metal sound of ringing a bell coming from the cave. The wind near the cave became more visible to the naked eye.

The trees in front of the cave were blown rustling, countless leaves were rolled down from the trees, and were wrapped in wind to gather into the inside of the cave.

"It's really weird. What exactly is there? Today's wind, rain, thunder and lightning are not right." The disciple looked up at the cumulus clouds that were constantly rotating like vortexes, and said uncomfortable all over.

Gu Shunze turned around and looked into the cave. The Gu King obviously noticed his existence, so he called out his name over and over again.

Since the Gu insect has not yet activated its spiritual intelligence, the sounds it makes are all instinctive, which sounds extremely noisy and harsh to outsiders, but for Gu Shun, who refined it, it can understand it without any effort.

Several disciples carried a few pieces of ice past the two of them. The disciple also realized that it was not the time to be in a daze, so he urged Gu Shun to continue carrying the ice.

When the two of them arrived in front of the parked vehicles, Gu Shun was surprised to find that a steady stream of carriages drove over one after another. All the vehicles were filled with ice cubes. There were so many ice cubes, and I don’t know where they were transported. It was not easy to get so many ice cubes.

You should know that this place is located in the south of the Yangtze River. Even in winter, it is difficult to freeze. Moreover, the mountains here are very low at altitudes and cannot reach the conditions for forming glaciers and snow-capped mountains. This world similar to that of ancient times, without ice making machines, so it is impossible to make ice on a large scale.

The ice in this world is often something that only wealthy nobles and merchants can afford.

Often, ice is taken from the ice river in winter and sealed in the ice cellar below. After summer comes, it will be taken out and used.

Even in winter, the ice in the river cannot meet the storage conditions, so they will be transported from the north along the canal or by carriage to nearby ice cellars to be stored. The freight and storage costs of each piece of ice are extremely high.

Therefore, Gu Shun saw so many Bings at once, and knew that her mother had invested a lot. Unfortunately, her method seemed to have definitely failed now.

Gu Shun also found that in addition to wearing horse chews to prevent them from making noise, all the horses in the carriage also prepared earplugs for them and blindfolded their eyes that could only look forward.

The effects of these earplugs and eye masks are obvious, making them unable to hear the sounds made by the Gu King. The pressure brought by the Gu King can not only be felt by insects and humans, but also by animals.

If there were no such things, no matter how hard the horses were, they would not be willing to enter the mountain.

"What's the matter with you boy? Let's move the ice cubes quickly and leave this ghost place quickly. You don't want to be struck by lightning, right?" the disciple who was traveling with him urged.

Gu Shun nodded, bent down and grabbed a piece of ice with his left and right hands. He said it was ice, but in fact it should be ice sheets. Each piece is about twenty centimeters thick and is nearly one meter in length. This is still the size that has been melted a lot.

Each ice plate is quite weighty, and it is very difficult for ordinary adults to drag it on the ground, but for warriors, the weight is still very easy.

After transporting this trip, there was still a meter of ice on the bus. The disciple's movements were significantly accelerated. It was located in the deep mountains and forests, and there were unknown lightning strikes and ghosts and howling insects. No one wanted to stay here for too long.

In addition to the two, there were many disciples carrying ice on the nearby carriage. Everyone was in a hurry, carrying ice that had never been transporting where they were transporting.

Among the people here, Gu Shun knew a lot. Almost all of them were friends from Yunda Trading Company, working in the shops of various Yunda Trading Company in Jiangnan City. When he went shopping, he deliberately remembered the faces of the people inside, and now most people can match them.

"What are you still rushing around, hurry up, hurry up."

Seeing the disciples urging him, Gu Shun followed him quickly with the ice cube.

At this moment, another lightning fell in the sky struck not far from a group of people. The strong flash and heat made everyone hurriedly use the barriers of arms and force to block the splashing gravel and current.

However, the thunder came too quickly, and two disciples were still hit by the stones that suddenly flew out, and they flew backwards and couldn't get up.

When the disciples on duty next to him came forward to help them up, the two of them were soaked in blood, one of them was penetrated with his chest, and there was a pungent smell of burnt on the edge of the wound.

"Hurry up, come and save people."

A disciple who had learned a little medical skills hurried forward and pointed their mute acupoints in case their wailings attracted too many people's attention.

As the two disciples were carried down, everyone subconsciously became farther away from the cliff. If lightning falls again and is not struck by lightning, it will be tragic enough to be affected by these splashed gravels.

Without time to hesitate, everyone entered the cave again.

Just a few minutes passed, the temperature and wind in the cave were obviously much larger than before. Several sweaty Gu masters at the entrance of the cave were looking for ways to deal with the Gu King from countless books stacked into mountains over and over again.

Gu Shun carried the ice cubes and passed by them as if nothing had happened. Just as he passed by a Gu Master who was leaning against him, Gu Shun quickly and carefully lifted up with his toes, and pulled a flute out of the Gu Master's waist.

This flute is a worm-calling flute, which is similar to the one that was destroyed before. The worm-calling flute is usually a magic weapon passed down from generation to generation by Gu Master, and it is very difficult to make.

Gu Shun sent people to visit the auction houses, pawn shops and markets in Jiangnan City. He collected a lot of flutes, but he didn't even notice a single insect-calling flute.

The insect-calling flute is an important bridge for the practice of Gu masters and Gu insects. Because the insect-calling flute uses human bones, it must also be someone who is bitten to death by the insect insect or is poisoned by the body. The materials are very harsh, so it is naturally extremely rare to call the insect-calling flute.

After Gu Shun followed the Gu master, he quickly inserted the caller into the clothes around his waist.

The Gu master kept lowering his head and flipping through the books in his hand, but he did not realize that his flute had been passed away.
