On the way, Bai Yu kept asking about Stone Village.

Shi Lou talked about everything he knew, and basically revealed everything about Stone Village.

After learning the details, Bai Yu was a little confused.

"Logically speaking, Stone Village's development should be ranked high in the world. Why have I never heard the name Stone Village in the world?"

Hearing this, Shi Lou sighed.

"It is said that many years ago, our Stone Village was indeed a well-known and decent family, but as soon as our reputation became famous, many sects came to look for trouble. We Stone Village have always been stable and peaceful, and we have never been enemies with others, but these people But they wanted to remove us from the world and used all kinds of methods against us. Later, we slowly cut off contact with the outside world. Until a year ago, a disaster came, and Stone Village was completely unknown in the world..."

Recalling all that Stone Village has experienced over the years, Shi Lou and Er Gou couldn't help but have red eyes.

Gu Sheng raised his hand and put it on their shoulders, patting them twice.

Bai Yu pursed his lips and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that was the case..."

"It's okay, it's all in the past. Now that Brother Sheng is taking us Stone Village, Stone Village will definitely get better and better."

"Yes, yes, you can't go wrong with Gu Sheng. His ability is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Maybe Stone Village's reputation will be higher than that of our White Cloud Sect in the future."

After he finished speaking, several people couldn't help laughing.

Two days later, everyone finally returned to Stone Village.

When he saw Third Elder, Shi Lou shouted, "Third Elder, we are back!"

Hearing the shout, the three old figures paused and turned their heads in surprise.

"Everyone, come out quickly, Gu Sheng are back!"

This remark was echoed by hundreds of people, and everyone in Stone Village quickly gathered around.

Within a moment, Gu Sheng and others were surrounded by a crowd.

Feeling the enthusiasm of everyone at Stone Village, people at Bai Yu and White Cloud Sect were really shocked.

Seeing their appearance, Gu Sheng quickly stopped everyone.

"Everyone, this is Young Master White Cloud Sect next to me, and those beside him are his subordinates, who are here to be guests of our Stone Village."

Knowing that the visitor was Young Master White Cloud Sect, everyone at Stone Village was shocked.

"Gu Sheng, this... this..."

Third Elder I did this several times, but still didn't get the words out.

After all, the real owner was still standing in front of him, so it was hard to say some things.

Understanding what he meant, Gu Sheng smiled and explained.

After learning that Gu Sheng had rescued Bai Yu, the two became friends, and everyone was relieved.

At this time, Bai Yu stood up and said, "Don't worry, I will always keep Gu Sheng's life-saving grace in mind. From now on, Stone Village will be protected by me, White Cloud Sect. Anyone who dares to touch Stone Village will be my enemy, White Cloud Sect!"

Bai Yu After finishing speaking, everyone thanked him profusely.

Third Elder looked at Gu Sheng with gratitude in his eyes.

"Gu Sheng, we, Stone Village, owe everything to you for your help. We cannot repay this debt."

"Third Elder, don't say that, Stone Village is also my place of residence. It's really good to be nice to everyone."

"Okay, okay, then we will enjoy the happiness with you."

"No problem, let's go in and talk."

Gu Sheng After saying that, everyone realized that they were still welcoming the guests in after they had been here for so long!

In the courtyard of Gu Sheng, everyone chatted for a while.

When Third Elder was about to hold a banquet, Gu Sheng still revealed the next arrangements.

"Third Elder, we can't stay in Stone Village for too long. We will only stay for one night and leave tomorrow."

Hearing this, Third Elder became a little anxious.

"Why are you in such a hurry? You're leaving after just one night's stay? White Cloud Sect's guests have just arrived, can't they stay a few more days?"

"Third Elder, we still have some important things to do."

Speaking of this, Third Elder did not ask further questions.

He knew that what Gu Sheng didn't say clearly was definitely not trivial. If he didn't say it, there was no need for him to ask.

But the thought of them leaving tomorrow still made him feel uncomfortable.

"After this time, can you come back and stay for a few more days?"

Seeing the hope in Third Elder's eyes, Gu Sheng nodded solemnly.

"When this matter is settled, we will definitely stay at home for a few more days."

With his words, Third Elder finally felt comfortable.

"Okay, then you guys chat first, and I'll prepare a banquet for you."

Gu Sheng didn't stop him and let him go.

At this time, Fifth Elder on the side accidentally mentioned that many people from all walks of life have been wandering around Stone Village recently.

Hearing this, Gu Sheng couldn't help but frown.

"Is there anything strange about these quacks?"

"There is nothing unusual. I have observed them carefully. They should be all wandering cultivators without any sect. They live in the open air every day. They only occasionally appear around us Stone Village, but they have a good sense of boundaries and will not cross the boundaries. After observing them for a while, I stopped caring about them."

Knowing that these people had not crossed the line, Gu Sheng's frown relaxed.

"Fifth Elder, we still can't be careless when it comes to these people. Occasionally send someone to take a look to prevent them from planning something secretly."

"I know, I send people to look at them every day, but they keep keeping to themselves, as if they are looking for a place to stay."

"If they want to settle in the neighborhood, they have to be driven away."

Gu Sheng These words may seem heartless, but everyone understands.

A sect is stationed here, which means that this territory has been demarcated. If someone sets up camp next to this territory, there will definitely be trouble in the future.

If they are soft-hearted, the boomerang will definitely hit them in the future.

Understanding what he meant, Fifth Elder nodded.

"Okay, I will send someone to keep an eye on them at all times."

While a few people were chatting, the banquet at Third Elder was ready.

Everyone moved, Shi Lou's eyes lit up when he saw the wine jar on the table.

"Third Elder, you are too generous, you even took out the fine wine that you have treasured for many years!"

Hearing him say it bluntly, Third Elder scratched his head in embarrassment.

"It's rare for you to come back and have distinguished guests, so naturally you have to bring some good wine."

"Brother Sheng, can I drink more?"

After Shi Lou asked, Gu Sheng only gave him a look.

Seeing this look, Shi Lou immediately withered.

"Okay, okay, I'll just have a taste."

Although he said this, he was still half drunk at night.

Er Gou sent him back and simply kept him overnight.

As soon as the sky dawned and everyone was preparing to leave, Shi Lou showed up with a sad look on his face.

Seeing him like this, everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Sheng, I'm sorry, I thought I wouldn't drink too much."

Gu Sheng shook his head helplessly and put his hand on his head.

A burst of spiritual energy surged out of Gu Sheng's hand and slowly entered Shi Lou's body.

In less than a moment, the smell of alcohol was gone from his body.

"How do you feel now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

Shi Lou was refreshed and shook his head quickly. "I don't feel uncomfortable anymore. Thank you, Brother Sheng."

Gu Sheng smiled, didn't say much, and led everyone on the way.

Third Elder and others saw each other off until their backs disappeared, and then everyone looked away.

Looking at Third Elder, Fifth Elder said, "Third Elder, Gu Sheng let us keep an eye on the people around Stone Village."

"I know, just do what he says."

Looking up at where Gu Sheng and others were walking away, Fifth Elder couldn't help but say, "Third Elder, Gu Sheng really helped us a lot. Without him, I'm afraid we would Stone Village has long since dispersed. Now we are not only in a stable position, but we can also be taken care of by the White Cloud Sect. All this is due to Gu Sheng. Look... should the things left by the village master be handed over to him?"

Hearing Fifth Elder's words, Third Elder pursed his lips slightly.

"You are right, we Stone Village are where we are today thanks to Gu Sheng."

"Yes, if it weren't for him, we would have died long ago. If we were dead, how could there be Stone Village in this world?"

As soon as this was said, everyone agreed.

Listening to everyone's words, Third Elder pursed his lips again.

"Don't worry, I have made my own decision on this matter. I will repay Gu Sheng's kindness."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.

Everyone looked at him with some doubts in their hearts.

Logically speaking, Gu Sheng had paid so much for Stone Village and should have taken on the position of village leader long ago. They didn't understand why Third Elder didn't take out that thing.

While everyone was whispering, Fifth Elder waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, don't talk here. Third Elder is a thoughtful person. He knows when to take advantage of him. Gu Sheng is such a good person, he will not hide his selfish intentions."

At this time, Shi Lou next to Gu Sheng also mentioned this matter.

Bai Yu was a little surprised to learn that Gu Sheng had not yet taken power in Stone Village.

In his mind, Gu Sheng should be in a high position even if he was not the leader of the village, but he didn't expect that he was not.

"Gu Sheng, you worked so hard and hard, but they didn't even give you an explanation?"

Hearing what he said, Shi Lou and Er Gou quickly stepped forward to explain.

"Third Elder is definitely considering this matter, and sooner or later there will be an explanation."

"Yes, yes, Brother Sheng has already taken that position in our hearts. I guess Third Elder thinks so too."

Seeing the two people eager to explain, Gu Sheng smiled.

"I don't have so many ideas. I actually stayed at Stone Village. I just wanted to contribute to Stone Village. As for the rest, it doesn't matter."

With his words, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before they could relax, Bai Yu took over the words from the side.

"Gu Sheng, since you have no name and no status in Stone Village, if one day you get tired of being idle, you are welcome to come to the White Cloud Sect. As long as you come, I will definitely put you in a high position!"

After he finished speaking, before Shi Lou and Er Gou had time to express their dissatisfaction, Lan Yao squeezed forward.

"Bai Yu, do you know what first come first served means? I met Gu Sheng first, and if he comes, he will also come to us Elf race! In addition to not letting him be the leader of the clan, I will let him choose other positions!"

When the two argued, Shi Lou and Er Gou were very worried.

After exchanging glances, they both sighed.

Gu Sheng stopped with a headache, and then stopped their conversation.

"Okay, our mission now is to chase down the two generals around Demon, not to discuss my whereabouts. You are chatting so enthusiastically, but what do you think about this matter? If so, tell me and I will listen."

Gu Sheng As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone wilted.

"Gu Sheng, I think the latest news is that we only know that the code names of these two people are Black and White Ghosts, and we don't know the others yet."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.

"Black and White Ghosts?"

"Yes, it was the name given by Demon. He said he hoped that the black ghosts and white ghosts would regain the black and white sides of the world and use them all for him."

"Oh, he thinks of beauty."

"Indeed, if he wants to accept it, he might as well go to the King of Hell and give it a try."

Everyone walked forward talking and laughing, and after two full days, we finally found a place to stay.

In the inn, Bai Yu called his men and gave them a few instructions before letting them leave.

Seeing his men leaving, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"We're only staying here for one night."

"I know they will meet us halfway."

"Why let them go? To investigate the news about Black and White Ghosts?"

"No, let them investigate the news of various sects. The Shanshui Town market is about to open. There must be a large number of people from all walks of life. I want to know if anyone else has colluded with Black and White Ghosts."

Hearing his words, Gu Sheng nodded.

I have to admit that Bai Yu is very smart and has a long-term vision. Although his character needs to be tempered, his mind is definitely first-rate.

"On this journey, we have been referring to your White Cloud Sect news."

"No problem, we don't need to be so polite. What's the difference between you and me? At the critical moment, don't we have to rely on you?"

Hearing this, Gu Sheng smiled.

"I may not be reliable."

"If I can't even rely on you, then I'm afraid there's only one way to die."

Gu Sheng didn't say anything more, just smiled softly.

That night, when everyone was preparing to rest, Gu Sheng vaguely heard some footsteps.

Just as he was carefully identifying it, Lan Yao next door suddenly knocked on the wall several times.

Hearing the voice from his side, Gu Sheng's eyes turned cold.

Taking out Fire Spirit Dagger, he slowly approached the door.

Sure enough, the faint footsteps outside the door stopped at his door.

Gu Sheng raised his hand and held the door handle. Just as he was about to open the door, the footsteps moved again, walking straight inside.

Sensing something was wrong, Gu Sheng also hurriedly knocked on the wall a few times.

Shi Lou quickly responded and passed on the message.

Thinking of Bai Yu living in the room between Er Gou and Huang Shan, Gu Sheng felt a little uneasy, turned around and looked at the window, opened the window and flew out.

Speeding along the window, he soon arrived outside the Huang Shan house.

Just as he was about to knock on the window, there were two faint sounds on the wall.

Hearing these two sounds, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I didn't expect Bai Yu to be so clever."

When there was movement in the house, Gu Sheng opened the window directly.

Hearing the sound coming from the window, Huang Shan's heart almost jumped out of his chest.

When his sword flew over, Gu Sheng quickly hid to the right.

"It's me."

With a push of his hands, he fell straight to the ground.

Seeing that it was him, Huang Shan breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Brother Sheng, you scared me to death."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Gu Sheng immediately made a gesture of silence.

When the footsteps outside the door stopped again, the two looked at each other and walked towards the door together.

When the two of them paused at the door, the oil paper next to the door was suddenly pierced, and a thin bamboo tube stretched out from the outside, facing the direction of the bed!
