Old Man Gu finally just waved his hands angrily, "Forget it!"
"I'm too lazy to argue with a bastard like you! Just carry it if you like! But..."
He turned around and rummaged through the messy items for a while, then took out two things and handed them to Long Zhanye:
A dark hat with wide edges that can effectively cover the face, and a simple-looking Bronze Mask that only covers the upper half of the face.
"Bring these." Old Man Gu's tone became serious.
Long Zhanye took the hat and mask and was a little confused. "Elder Gu, what should I do with these things?"
"Shade the sun? Or... are you afraid of being recognized?"
"Shade the sun? Huh!" Old Man Gu snorted, "I'm afraid you'll scare people, and I'm even more afraid that you'll be seen by people who shouldn't see you!"
He pointed at Long Zhanye's forehead and eyes. "Although your 'Heavenly Eye' is usually closed, it will inevitably be exposed when you are emotional or use Soul Power."
"What's more important is your 'Double Pupil'!!!"
"With one look and two eyes, if an ordinary person sees this, they will think you are a monster at best, or may cause unnecessary trouble and onlookers at worst."
"If it is noticed by some forces, some people who specialize in searching for strange people, or... people with ulterior motives, it will not do you any good!"
"Low-key, cautious, and hiding your special features are the first rules for traveling on the mainland!"
"Especially before your strength has truly grown."
"This mask can cover most of your face and eye abnormalities, and the hat can also be used to further block it when needed."
"Unless necessary, try not to reveal your true face and Martial Soul."
After listening to Old Man Gu's explanation, Long Zhanye was shocked and understood the stakes involved.
He really shouldn't be too ostentatious now, especially after experiencing the thrill of Star Dou Forest and knowing the cause and effect of the "gods" that he may be involved in.
"I understand, Elder Gu. Thank you for reminding me." Long Zhanye nodded solemnly.
He carefully put the Bronze Mask on his face, and the cold and hard touch was close to the skin, leaving only the lower half of his face and lips exposed.
He put the hat on his head, and the wide brim of the hat cast a shadow, completely covering the upper half of his face and eyes in darkness.
In this way, no one can easily see the vertical mark on his forehead and those shocking Double Pupil unless he takes the initiative to reveal it.
"Well, that's pretty much it." Old Man Gu looked up and down and was slightly satisfied.
"Remember, safety comes first, and learning is the most important thing. When you encounter trouble, avoid it if you can, but you really can't avoid it..."
"Just use the means you should use. Go ahead."
"Junior brother, be careful along the way." Zhua Yun also said in a deep voice from the side.
Long Zhanye bowed deeply to the two of them. "Elder Gu, senior brother, take care. I'm leaving."
Having said that, he stopped staying.
He turned around and left the secret room, walking out of the underground area that he had lived in for three years and was filled with the smell of herbs and strange bottles.
The sun is a bit dazzling.
Long Zhanye Tightened the tight "coffin" straps, and adjusted the Bronze Mask on the face and the bamboo hat on the head.
"Tang San" at his feet seemed to feel the journey that was about to begin, wagging its tail excitedly and rubbing against his legs.
One person, "one dog" and one coffin just left the mountain gate of the Body Sect and set foot on the road to the capital of the Star Luo Empire--
Star Luo City's long road.
He did not choose to ride in a carriage or use Flight Soul Guidance Device.
First of all, this mission is not urgent at all. Old Man Gu also said that learning is the main thing;
Secondly, he also wanted to take this opportunity to measure this vast continent with his own feet.
See the outside world with your own eyes and experience some different people and things.
This is also a kind of spiritual relaxation and necessary growth for him who has been depressed for three years and almost isolated from the world.
Just think of it as a... long journey.
His steps were neither fast nor slow, walking through the avenues, mountains, forests and towns.
When you are hungry, you eat dry food or hunt some game. When you are thirsty, you drink water from mountain springs and streams. When you are tired, you rest under a tree or in an abandoned house.
night.
"Tang San" will stand vigilantly. Its glowing blue eyes and keen sense of smell make it the best night watchman.
Although the "coffin" carried behind the back attracts people's attention, it also scares away many people with evil intentions--
After all, a person carrying a coffin on the road does not seem to be someone to be trifled with.
On the seventh day of the trip, he arrived at the border area of the Heaven Dou Empire.
He deliberately slowed down his pace.
I wandered and inquired around some garrison camps and small towns, trying to find traces of my brother Long Zhantian.
However.
Maybe the mission was confidential, maybe he just missed it, or maybe Long Zhantian had already left the area.
He didn't get any definite information, only a touch of regret.
After taking a short rest, he continued south.
Soon, a huge city with a scale that was far beyond his imagination and dizzyingly prosperous appeared on the horizon.
Shrek City!
The place where Shrek Academy, the first college in mainland China, is located.
At the same time, it is also one of the most prosperous and affluent super cities on the mainland, where Spirit Master and ordinary people live together!
Its liveliness and splendor are far beyond what Heaven Dou Empire's capital city can match.
Towering city walls, endless crowds of people, all kinds of strangely dressed soul masters and merchants, and a dazzling array of shops.
The air is filled with the unique mixed smell of various foods, spices and Soul Tool...
All this made Long Zhanye feel a bit shocked and novel when seeing such a grand scene for the first time.
He slowed down his pace and slowly entered the city with the flow of people.
The hat and mask hid his appearance well, although the coffin behind him was weird.
But in a place like Shrek City where three religions and nine streams gather, it is not unique.
It only attracted some curious or disgusted looks, but did not cause much commotion.
Walking on the wide street, my ears were filled with the sounds of hawking, discussions, and the buzzing of soul-guiding vehicles passing by.
Long Zhanye The string in my heart that is tense because of hatred.
In this noisy and life-filled environment, I seem to be slightly more relaxed.
He remembered that Old Man Gu once mentioned that Shrek City has the top auction in mainland China.
From time to time, there will be some rare Soul Tool, medicinal materials, Spirit Bone and even rare Soul Beast.
"Since I'm passing by... why not go take a look?" An idea arose in his mind.
He is not very interested in the auction itself, but he may be able to see some rare things there, broaden his horizons, and even...
What if I could come across something that would help heal injuries or improve strength?
Anyway, it's not far away from Star Luo City, and it doesn't take more than a day or two.
Just think of it as... part of the tour.
Having made up his mind, Long Zhanye began to ask passers-by about the location of the large auction.
He adjusted the coffin behind him to make sure it would not hit pedestrians.
Then he took "Tang San" and walked towards the auction house that symbolized opportunity.
The hustle and bustle of Shrek City is like a huge whirlpool.
This young man, who is burdened with secrets and hatred, but full of curiosity about the future, is quietly involved...
