"Fifth Master, what should I do? I found such a big Refined Ore Source and I won't let it be taken away."
"That's right, then Big Beard Chen's men are not vegetarians."
"I think we should just poach this piece of Refined Ore Source."
Several mountain people were a little emotional and kept complaining nearby.
"Poach it away? Impossible!"
After Fifth Master Zhang heard what the mountain man said at the end, he turned his head with a straight face and said, "Erhu, I don't care about your other matters. If you dare to do anything about this, I will never spare you."
When the mountain man named Erhu heard this, he stepped back angrily.
He didn't dare to speak any more, as if he felt that something he said was inappropriate.
"What should we do?"
asked a young mountain man next to him.
This question was posed to Fifth Master Zhang again, and he shook his head in embarrassment.
"What else can we do? Keep looking!"
Fifth Master Zhang replied.
"Okay..."
After hearing Fifth Master Zhang's command, the others just sighed softly.
Then, everyone exited the cave and hid the entrance of the cave.
"Buzz..."
Suddenly, a deep voice came faintly.
Hearing this voice, Fifth Master Zhang and the others suddenly became nervous.
"Fifth Master! It's the village's cry for help!"
Erhu shouted nervously.
"Go back!"
Fifth Master Zhang ordered directly without hesitation.
"Little Sheng, do you want to come with us?"
Fifth Master Zhang turned around and asked Gu Sheng.
"Where to go?"
Gu Sheng asked.
"The stockade, the stockade of our mountain people, that trumpet sound is from the people inside the stockade who are trying to save themselves! We must rush back!"
Fifth Master Zhang explained.
"Help?"
Gu Sheng hesitated for a moment, feeling that he might as well follow them here so that he could find more Refined Ore Source.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Sheng nodded. "Okay, I'll go back with you!"
After saying that, Fifth Master Zhang and the others took Gu Sheng and ran away from the mountain.
After a while, Gu Sheng saw several horses tied to several trees.
That must have been what they were riding when they came here.
"Mount!"
Fifth Master Zhang pointed to a horse next to him and said to Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng smiled, "Old Zhang, just tell me the direction of your village. I don't need to ride a horse?"
"Oh?"
Fifth Master Zhang looked at Gu Sheng in surprise. "Are you also a cultivator? A cultivator who can fly?"
"Yes."
Gu Sheng smiled and nodded.
Seeing Gu Sheng nodding, Fifth Master Zhang became even more excited. "Here you go!"
With that said, Fifth Master Zhang directly threw a riding crop to Gu Sheng: "Our village is called Stone Village. It is fifty miles ahead. If you hold my riding whip, you will not be considered an enemy."
"Okay!"
Gu Sheng took the riding whip and took a look.
I saw some strange Daoist inscriptions carved on the handle.
These sermons seemed to contain a certain amount of power, but in a short period of time, Gu Sheng did not have time to realize it.
Therefore, he could only suppress his curiosity temporarily.
Then, Gu Sheng held the riding whip tightly, and the spiritual power in his body surged.
A powerful force rose from the soles of his feet, and his body gradually became lighter, as if blending with the surrounding air.
"Uh-huh!"
Gu Sheng set up a rainbow light and flew quickly in the direction of Stone Village.
"This..."
Fifth Master Zhang They were stunned in place.
They didn't expect that Gu Sheng actually had such ability!
"Let's go back quickly!"
"Quick!"
Fifth Master Zhang handed it over after them.
The wind whistled in my ears, and Gu Sheng's speed became faster and faster.
Not long after, Gu Sheng flew over Stone Village.
Viewed from the air, Stone Village is just a stone village in the mountains with dozens of households.
The surrounding area was built high with stones, forming an artificial barrier.
But at this moment, the outside of the village was surrounded by strong men riding horses.
They were armed with swords and menacing, and clearly had evil intentions.
Gu Sheng felt nervous, guessing that these strong men were probably the incoming robbers.
He didn't hesitate and landed directly on the Stone Village wall more than two meters high.
When the people in the village saw him, a stranger, they immediately became nervous, holding steel forks and about to stab Gu Sheng.
"Kill!"
The roar reached Gu Sheng's ears.
Gu Sheng Seeing this, he quickly raised the riding crop in his hand.
"Don't get me wrong, I was sent by Fifth Master Zhang. He asked me to come back first to help!"
Gu Sheng explained loudly.
When the people in the village heard Fifth Master Zhang's name, their movements suddenly froze.
They looked at each other, as if confirming whether Gu Sheng's words were credible.
Gu Sheng took the opportunity to explain, "Fifth Master Zhang is coming with his troops now. I am taking the first step to help everyone resist foreign enemies."
After hearing what Gu Sheng said, the people in the village finally put down the steel forks in their hands.
Gu Sheng looked around and found that although the defense facilities in the village were rudimentary.
But the terrain here is dangerous, and as long as it is properly arranged, it may not be able to withstand the robbers' attack.
"Hey! That boy!"
Gu Sheng had just explained his identity to the mountain people in the village when he heard a low cry.
Gu Sheng turned around and saw a middle-aged man with unshaven beard.
He was riding a bay-red horse, menacing and domineering.
Obviously, he should be the leader of these dozens of bandits.
"Are you... calling me?"
Gu Sheng stood on the wall and asked with a faint smile.
The subordinate next to the bandit leader was not angry and shot an arrow directly.
"Whoosh!"
The arrow cut through the air like a meteor, pointing directly at Gu Sheng's eyebrows.
Gu Sheng frowned slightly, stretched out his hand, and steadily caught the flying arrow.
This move shocked the mountain people and bandits of Stone Village. They did not expect that Gu Sheng had such strength.
"You... how did you do it?"
The bandit leader's voice was trembling. He had never seen anyone catch a flying arrow with his bare hands.
Gu Sheng smiled faintly and gently put the arrow aside.
"I advise you to leave. This is not the place you should be."
The two bandits felt that Gu Sheng was overestimating their capabilities and rode forward.
They waved the long knives in their hands and shouted loudly, "Boy, who do you think you are? How dare you be arrogant in front of us!"
Gu Sheng jumped lightly, jumped off the city wall more than two meters high, and landed steadily on the ground.
At the same time, a powerful divine power surged around his body.
"I don't want to hurt you, but if you don't retreat, don't blame me for being rude."
Gu Sheng said coldly.
The two bandits looked at each other with a sneer on their lips.
They did not believe in evil and at the same time urged their horses to rush towards Gu Sheng.
The long knife waved, bringing up a gust of wind.
Gu Sheng advanced instead of retreating, and his body disappeared on the spot like a phantom.
The next moment, he appeared in front of the horses of the two bandits.
"Boom!"
Gu Sheng Push it out with a gentle palm.
That palm caused a strong wind.
The two bandits only felt a huge force coming, and they and their horses were blown away dozens of meters.
"Ah..."
Screams came, and the two of them fell heavily to the ground.
Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth and he could no longer get up.
The bandits were shocked again.
They didn't expect Gu Sheng's strength to be so terrifying.
With just a light palm, the man and the horse flew dozens of meters!
The bandit leader's face turned pale, knowing that he had kicked an iron plate this time.
"Withdraw! Let's withdraw!"
the bandit leader shouted.
He led everyone to evacuate quickly, not daring to stay any longer.
"Oh oh oh..."
The mountain people of Stone Village cheered.
They surrounded Gu Sheng, and their gratitude was beyond words.
Gu Sheng smiled, knowing that he had won the trust of these mountain people.
Soon after, Fifth Master Zhang arrived at Stone Village with his troops.
Hearing that Gu Sheng had single-handedly scared off the bandits, Fifth Master Zhang's gratitude to Gu Sheng flooded into his heart again.
"Little Sheng, you are really our great benefactor!"
Fifth Master Zhang held Gu Sheng's hand tightly and said excitedly.
Gu Sheng waved his hand, "Old Zhang, don't be polite to me."
Fifth Master Zhang looked at Gu Sheng with admiration in his eyes.
He didn't expect that Gu Sheng was not only powerful, but also kind-hearted.
Such people are exactly the guardians they Stone Village need.
"Little Sheng, from now on, you are my valued guest Stone Village, and we will definitely repay you!"
Fifth Master Zhang said solemnly.
"Then I'll bother you all."
Gu Sheng smiled and said.
At this time, an old man who was older than Fifth Master Zhang suddenly walked towards Fifth Master Zhang.
He has white hair and a kind face, but he has a sense of majesty about him.
With steady steps, he walked up to Gu Sheng and nodded slightly.
"Little brother, I just saw your performance from a distance, it was really admirable."
The old man's voice was deep and powerful.
Gu Sheng was slightly startled, and then respectfully responded, "Senior, that's a great compliment."
The old man smiled, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. "You can stand up in critical moments. Stone Village needs people like you."
Fifth Master Zhang interjected from the side. "Elder, this Little Sheng is a new distinguished guest in our village, you must treat him well!"
The old man nodded and turned to Gu Sheng.
"I am Elder Shi from Stone Village. If you are willing, you are welcome to come here as a guest often."
Gu Sheng felt warm in his heart and said quickly, "Thank you, elder, for your love. I will definitely come to visit you often."
At this moment, a young man from the village ran over.
He looked panicked and said breathlessly, "Elder, there is another movement outside the stronghold. It seems that there are other bandits approaching!"
The elder's face instantly became serious. He turned around and said to Fifth Master Zhang, "We cannot take it lightly. We must immediately summon the young adults in the village to prepare!"
"Yes!"
Fifth Master Zhang nodded and quickly directed everyone to deploy defenses.
Gu Sheng felt nervous when he saw this.
Although they had just repelled a wave of bandits, it was obvious that the other party had no intention of letting it go.
"I'm here to help too!"
Gu Sheng said without hesitation.
Elder Shi and Fifth Master Zhang looked at each other and nodded. "Okay, young man, come with us!"
Gu Sheng followed them and quickly came to the edge of the village.
Many strong men have gathered there, and everyone is preparing nervously.
On the stone walls surrounding the stockade, bows and arrows had been set up, ready for the coming attack.
"Everybody listen!"
Fifth Master Zhang shouted loudly, "The bandits just retreated, but we cannot take it lightly. There may be other enemies. Little Sheng will guard the stockade with us. Everyone must unite and defend our home!"
"Don't worry, Fifth Master! We will go all out!"
"Yes! Fifth Master, we Stone Village people are not vegetarians either!"
"Everyone obeys Master Wu's orders!"
There was a murmur of response from the crowd.
Everyone knows that the current situation is not optimistic.
Gu Sheng stood on the wall of the village and glanced around.
He was thinking secretly in his heart, wanting to see what kind of bandits there were in Northern Region.
How to drive away the waves that come one after another.
"Coming!"
someone shouted in a low voice.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the village became tense.
As the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, everyone became nervous.
"Get ready!"
Fifth Master Zhang shouted loudly.
The strong men in the village tightened their bows and arrows and aimed at the incoming enemy in the distance.
At this moment, several bandits on horses appeared in sight.
They were tall and menacing, and they were obviously not accomplices of the bandits just now.
"What! It's Dao Bazi!"
Fifth Master Zhang suddenly screamed in surprise.
"Dao Bazi? Why did he come to us!"
"We're going to be in trouble this time."
"To fight or not to fight? Fifth Master, can you give me an accurate answer?"
Several Stone Village young adults asked.
This is after Gu Sheng noticed that among the dozens of bandits, the leader had a deep scar mark on his face.
Apparently, he is also a ruthless character.
What surprised Gu Sheng even more was that this bandit actually exuded a touch of divine power.
Then, Gu Sheng summoned his divine power to release his consciousness.
He sensed that this Dao Bazi was really a cultivator, but his realm was only at the early stage of Life Spring, and he was a beginner who had just absorbed the power of Life Spring.
"Everyone, please stay calm, Dao Bazi is not someone to be trifled with."
Elder Shi ordered to everyone.
"Open the gate of the village, or I will kill you all!"
Dao Bazi was riding a horse, holding a broadsword and scolding coldly.
Elder Shi's brows furrowed, he knew Dao Bazi's name.
This is a bandit leader who is well-known in the nearby mountains and is known for his cruelty and cunning.
Everyone knows that he is a cultivator, but his strength is extraordinary.
If it is made of hard steel, it will only cause more trouble.
"For the safety of the village, we cannot fight forcefully."
Elder Shi whispered to everyone.
Gu Sheng It can be heard that he is very helpless.
In this way, under the leadership of Elder Shi, everyone arrived at the gate of the village.
"Squeaky!"
The heavy wooden door slowly opened.
Elder Shi and Fifth Master Zhang walked out side by side, facing Dao Bazi who was riding a horse.
Dao Bazi looked at them coldly, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Who just hurt my brother?"
"Huh?"
Upon hearing this, Fifth Master Zhang and Elder Shi immediately understood the purpose of Dao Bazi.
He came here to take revenge and cause trouble for Gu Sheng.
Fifth Master Zhang stepped forward without hesitation and said loudly, "I did it, what do you want?"
Not to be outdone, Elder Shi also took a step forward, "No, I did it and it has nothing to do with anyone else."
The two of them planned to take the blame for Gu Sheng at the same time, which made Gu Sheng feel warm.
He knew that Fifth Master Zhang and Elder Shi were protecting him and did not want him to get involved in this dispute.
"Huh..."
Gu Sheng Take a deep breath.
As the saying goes, one person is responsible for the work, and he cannot let the people in the village bear the risk for him.
