Zhang Mingyu understood something that I don’t know.
After he said these three words, he stopped worrying about me agreeing to the Gu King's plan to kill the City God. He just sat aside alone, not knowing what to think.
I could tell that he seemed a little surprised about my identity as the village guard, or it was an accident. It was also because of this accident that he was a little confused.
But I didn't ask any more questions and started to prepare.
It is not that easy to kill the city god guarding Huangquan Road. Even if you have some confidence, you still need to prepare some preparations, such as talismans.
Some of the talismans I drew before have basically been used up, and I just happened to draw some more before the Gu King opened the door to enter the Zhongdong Gu Village.
Although the talisman cannot hurt the city god, it can be considered as some means to give me more opportunities to protect myself when necessary. The more the better.
But other than that, I still have some doubts in my heart.
It's the mother worm of the soul-eating Gu.
According to what Li Bowen said, the mother worm of the Soul-Eating Gu can allow me to travel unimpeded in the Zhongdong Gu Stronghold, but now it seems that the mother worm Li Bowen gave me did not seem to have any effect. With my identity, even if it does not
That Gu worm, that Gu King should also find me.
The only explanation is that the female insect was used to let King Gu determine my identity.
After all, even Gu King doesn't know what the City God here looks like now.
But even this explanation is not enough to dispel my doubts. After all, the things here are related to Li Bowen, so Li Bowen can tell me directly that the female insect is used to let the Gu King confirm my identity.
, and there is no need to say such words.
Therefore, Gu King may also have a problem.
Although maybe I'm overthinking it.
But every time I learn something, I will gain wisdom. No matter what, I have to be more cautious. Otherwise, I might not even know how I got tricked.
After gathering my mind, I started to draw the talismans.
The main ones drawn are the thunder talisman and the fire talisman.
These are the two things I am most proficient in now.
However, as soon as I started drawing the talismans, Zhang Mingyu suddenly came to my side again, looking at me seriously as if he had made up his mind.
"Junior Brother Li."
"Huh?" I looked at him with some confusion.
Zhang Mingyu grabbed my shoulder and said seriously: "I've thought about it."
"What are you thinking about?" I was even more confused.
The look on Zhang Mingyu's face became more serious.
"I decided, I want to go with you..."
"Kill the City God!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Zhang Mingyu continued: "From the moment I became a disciple of Tianshi Mountain, Master taught me something."
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, and establish a destiny for the people..."
"You said it." I interrupted him.
Zhang Mingyu's words stalled, and he glanced at me with a depressed look, as if he was blaming me for affecting the atmosphere. After a while, he continued seriously: "I don't have much ability."
"This trip is just to look for Master Li in Dragon Burial Village."
"Since chance brings me here."
"And I met you."
"That shows that this is my destiny."
"And since I have come here, it is destined that I have been involved in the affairs here. There is a road to hell here. As a disciple of Tianshi Mountain, I also have the responsibility to destroy this road to hell."
"Since we want to destroy Huangquan Road."
"Of course we have to kill the City God!"
Having said this, Zhang Mingyu looked at me again, "I feel guilty and ashamed for my fear before."
"Junior Brother Li, you won't dislike me, right?"
I looked at him a little dumbfounded.
What he said really stopped me.
What do I dislike about him?
That was just a normal human reaction.
To be honest, I am a different person.
Because I knew what I was going to do, and I knew I couldn't escape if I got the coffin, so I accepted it calmly, but he was different.
Although he is a disciple of Tianshi Mountain, even if he leaves here now, it will not have any impact on him. On the contrary, if he takes this risk with me, he may die for no reason.
Thinking of this, I shook my head and said, "In fact, I also think it would be difficult to kill a city god guarding Huangquan Road."
"So your reaction is normal."
"If it's not a last resort."
"I want to leave here too."
Hearing what I said, Zhang Mingyu was stunned for a moment, but he seemed not to understand what I meant, or maybe he thought I was comforting him. He sighed slightly after a moment.
"I know that you are already very shameless towards me for being timid in battle."
"Junior brother, don't worry, I will prove myself."
I smiled helplessly.
"Then prove it."
I threw the talismans and materials to him.
"Draw one hundred and eighty more powerful talismans, thunder talisman, fire talisman, etc., and I will believe you."
Zhang Mingyu looked at the talisman on the table and was stunned for a while before grinning: "Okay!"
"Senior brother will not let you down."
The corner of my mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
These disciples of Tianshi Mountain.
None of it is normal.
He has the same virtue as Li Bowen.
It took me a while before I sighed, and then I found a chair and sat down.
I originally planned to draw talismans, but now that I have a coolie like Zhang Mingyu, and his drawing speed and quality of talismans are definitely better than me, a dabbler, this also makes me suddenly have nothing to do.
However, I still enjoy this rare leisure time.
I haven't had much of a good rest for so long, but now I can relax.
As for other things.
Let’s wait until we enter the Zhongdong Gu Village.
And as I waited patiently, the day passed quickly.
Early the next morning, Elder Tian came to see me as agreed. He told me that the King of Gu had released the news that from today, Zhongdong Gu Village would be open for half a month.
During this half month, anyone can freely enter and leave the Zhongdong Gu Village.
Life and death have nothing to do with the Holy Village and the Gu King.
Of course, these have nothing to do with me. If I really die inside, I don't expect King Gu to make up for me. After all, everyone is dead, so it's useless to say anything.
In addition, Elder Tian also gave me something.
That is the Soul-Eating Gu Mother Insect.
He said that the Gu King asked him to give it to me, saying that with the soul-eating Gu mother in his body, he could at least avoid the infestation of most of the Gu after entering the Zhongdong Gu Stronghold.
To be honest, I was surprised by this.
After all, I was still thinking that the female insect Li Bowen gave me had no effect.
Now it seems that I have overthought it. Maybe King Gu took the female worm from me just to confirm my identity. But even though the female worm has returned to my hands, I have not relaxed yet.
Come down.
Everything is possible until things are over.
Just like the previous Yinbing Valley and the Eighteen Tiankeng, who can imagine what the truth is before the end?
