Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons
Chapter 536 Strange Man
The two men pretended nothing happened and paid the silver for the jade token.
The moment the purchase was made, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
When Lan Yao was about to put the jade token into the bag, a big hand suddenly reached out from the side and grabbed his wrist.
"Brother, wait a minute!"
Lan Yao was shocked and looked at Gu Sheng quickly.
Gu Sheng turned sideways and stepped on Lan Yao's foot.
Lan Yao felt pain and loosened his grip, and the jade token fell into Gu Sheng's hand.
Holding the jade token steadily, Gu Sheng took a step back and stuffed the jade token directly into the storage ring.
Seeing the jade token disappear out of thin air, the person who held Lan Yao became a little anxious and hurried to Gu Sheng.
"Brother, could you please let me see that jade token?"
Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows.
"We have already bought the jade token. If you are interested, you can look at other ones here at the shopkeeper's place."
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the shopkeeper said enthusiastically: "Sir, I have more than one jade plaque here. Please feel free to pick any one you like. I promise to give you the lowest price."
However, that person didn't even glance at him, but just stared at Gu Sheng.
"Brother, I have no ill intentions. I just want to take a look at the jade token. Please let me take a look. Just one glance is enough."
Hearing the urgency in his words, Gu Sheng knew that this person must have some intention.
He stepped back again, rejecting the request.
"I'm really sorry, it's not very convenient, Blue Demon, let's go."
After saying that, Gu Sheng turned and left.
Seeing him leave, the man became obviously anxious and stepped forward to stop him.
Gu Sheng had already seen through his movements, and with a flash of his body, he disappeared into the crowd with everyone.
After walking around for a long time, they stopped in front of an inn.
"Brother Sheng, are we going to stay here? Isn't this place a bit remote?"
After Shi Lou finished speaking, Gu Sheng nodded.
“This place is indeed a bit remote, but it’s just right for us.”
"Why? Aren't we trying to gather information? Isn't it better to gather information with more people?"
"The more people we have, the better when gathering information. But the man just now was obviously unusual. If we live in a crowded place, he will inevitably pester us."
Hearing this, Lan Yao hurriedly asked: "Gu Sheng, can you feel that person is unusual?"
"Yes, he was obviously suppressing his strength when facing us. He may not have any ill intentions, or he may be planning greater malice. We have to be on guard."
Understanding what he meant, everyone followed him into the inn.
After requesting a few rooms upstairs, they finally had a good night's rest.
It was a rare opportunity to sleep in bed, so everyone slept in.
There was nothing urgent here, so Gu Sheng simply let them go.
This inn is in a remote location and not very crowded.
At dinner time, Gu Sheng went downstairs. There were only a few tables downstairs.
After asking the waiter to prepare a table of wine and food, Gu Sheng sat at the table alone.
At this time, two idle waiters gathered together and whispered something.
Gu Sheng didn't take it seriously at first, but when he accidentally heard the words "black evil spirits", he immediately perked up.
"It is said that they teamed up with the evil sect and were wiped out because of the uneven distribution of the spoils. You don't even know that those people died miserably."
"How could I not know? This matter has caused a lot of uproar. I'm afraid everyone in Jianghong knows about it. The shopkeeper went to that place a while ago, and I went with him. The Black Evil Sect was surrounded by people from all walks of life. There were people from all sects inside. There were no survivors there. Everyone could only crucify their corpses. Some people even dissected their bodies to find evidence of their collusion with the evil sect."
"Those famous sects have also taken action, right? With such a big incident, the martial arts world is in turmoil. They should be unable to sit still, right?"
"That's right. It is said that the Baiyun Sect is the largest sect in the Jianghu..."
Just as the waiter said this, a group of people suddenly walked into the inn.
When a customer came, the two waiters stopped talking and greeted him warmly.
The topic came to an abrupt end, and Gu Sheng was quite disappointed.
He looked at the person who came with some dissatisfaction, but as soon as they met, the person's eyes lit up and he immediately walked towards him.
"Brother, I didn't expect that we would meet again."
Looking at the person coming, Gu Sheng pinched his eyebrows in pain.
Because this person was none other than the one who had stopped them for the jade token that day.
He lived in such a remote place just to avoid him, but he didn't expect to run into him anyway.
"Yeah, that's quite a coincidence."
"Brother, do you still have the jade token?"
Hearing him bring this up again, Gu Sheng frowned unconsciously.
"What do you want to do?"
"Don't worry, I really have no ill intentions, I just want to take a look."
"Didn't you see it that day? What else is there to see?"
"I was in a hurry that day and didn't look carefully. Can you let me take another look, just one look?"
"No."
After the cold rejection, Gu Sheng went straight back to his room.
As soon as he entered the room, Lan Yao pushed the door open and walked in.
"Didn't you say we were going to have dinner? Why are you back again?"
"Here comes someone who wants to snatch the jade token from us."
Hearing this, Lan Yao was shocked.
"He actually found his way here? Gu Sheng, what do you think his purpose is?"
"I do not know either."
Seeing that Gu Sheng had no idea what to do, Lan Yao became anxious and turned around.
"That jade token was the personal jade token of the previous leader of the Baiyun Sect. Few people recognize it. It was lost in a fight, but he recognized it at the first sight. This shows that he is definitely not a simple person."
Gu Sheng agreed with what he said, but he couldn't figure out the identity of this person.
"Gu Sheng, you think he won't kill us and take the jade token? After all, the jade token symbolizes a lot. Even if a beggar takes the jade token to Baiyun Sect, he might be able to get a title. He looks like a man of some status. If the jade token is taken away by him, he might become famous. With such a great temptation, will he be murderous?"
After thinking about it again and again, Gu Sheng felt that the answer was very confusing.
After two contacts, he did not feel the murderous aura from that person, and even his breath was easily suppressed. However, it was impossible to say that he had no bad intentions, because he obviously came for the jade token, and he was able to find it this time, obviously on purpose.
After thinking for a while, Gu Sheng sighed.
"If he lingers around, we will counter his moves. If we join forces, he may not be our opponent."
Lan Yao had no choice but to nod.
After a while, the waiter came up.
"Sir, your wine and food are all ready. When will you serve?"
"Now."
After making preparations to counter the opponent's moves, Gu Sheng and the other man felt much calmer. If that person could find this place, he would surely stay here. Hiding would not be a solution, so it would be better to face him directly.
A group of people went downstairs and saw the man sitting at the table. Gu Sheng ignored him and sat down at his own table.
While they were eating, the man's eyes frequently fell on their faces. Gu Sheng sensed it, but ignored it.
The meal was relatively quiet, but just as Gu Sheng put down his chopsticks, the man walked over.
Looking at him, Gu Sheng's expression was not very good.
"Why do you insist on seeing the jade token?"
"Brother, this jade token is very important to me."
"Is it important to you? What sect are you from?"
"No one has any sect."
Hearing these words, Gu Sheng's face suddenly turned cold.
If this person said that he was from the Baiyun Sect, it would be understandable, after all, the jade token belonged to an elder of the previous generation of the Baiyun Sect. But if he said that he had no sect, then Lan Yao's guess was more likely.
"You don't have to bother me anymore. I won't take out this jade token again. If you want to play dirty tricks, we are ready to accompany you at any time."
After Gu Sheng finished speaking, the man seemed to want to say something, but Gu Sheng didn't give him the chance and turned around and left with everyone.
They went to the market to get information, and the man followed them.
Gu Sheng pretended not to see him and focused on finding out the information he wanted.
As expected, the news about the Black Demon Sect spread widely, and many people in the martial arts world were discussing it.
In a teahouse, two tables of people were discussing this matter enthusiastically.
Gu Sheng and others stopped and chose a seat closest to them to sit down.
On the surface, everyone seemed to be drinking tea, but in fact they were all listening attentively.
These people were talking about a lot of different things, but they couldn't get to the point. Lan Yao was a little impatient, so Gu Sheng raised his hand and pressed him down.
Not long after, someone at that table said, "You don't know, do you? It is said that the eldest son of the Baiyun Sect has also come to inquire about this matter."
Hearing this, Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
The eldest son of Baiyun Sect? Bai Feng?
"I have heard of this matter. My brother who married into a wealthy family told me. But he said it after drinking, so I didn't take it seriously. Who told you this?"
"I heard it from my father. When my father went out to do business, he associated with well-known people in the underworld. How could the news they told him be false?"
"If this is true, once the eldest son of the Baiyun Sect shows up, he represents the entire Baiyun Sect. I'm sure there will be no more trouble in this martial world."
"That may not be the case. Although the Baiyun Sect is the best sect in the world, it has not been seen for many years. No one knows how strong they are now. If they cannot show enough strength, they probably won't be able to deal with the villain behind the Black Evil Sect. Think about it, if the villain can even control the Black Evil Sect, his methods must be extraordinary."
As soon as these words were spoken, many people nodded in agreement, even Blue Demon nodded along with them.
He killed the people from the Black Evil Sect with his own hands. They were indeed controlled by the evil people. The person who could control them must be very powerful.
As for the Baiyun Sect, it is indeed famous, but no one has ever seen its actual strength. The last war was more than ten years ago, and now more than ten years have passed. No one knows whether they have improved.
After listening to what the people at the two tables said, Gu Sheng and others got up and left.
As soon as he turned around, the person who followed him out of the inn came to him.
Seeing his lingering look, Gu Sheng simply chose to ignore him.
The man no longer avoided it and followed Gu Sheng directly. He went wherever Gu Sheng went, always keeping a distance but never leaving.
As night fell, Shilou pointed towards a two-story building with some excitement.
"Brother Sheng, that should be a winery. Should we go over and take a look?"
Looking up, Gu Sheng frowned slightly.
There were two women leaning on the railing, and it didn't look like a normal restaurant at all.
Just as he was about to refuse, Blue Demon grabbed him.
"Gu Sheng, let's go over and take a look. I haven't been to a place like this before."
After saying that, he pulled Gu Sheng forward without waiting for his response.
Shi Lou and others were even more active, and all gathered around Gu Sheng, fearing that he would not go.
Just like that, Gu Sheng was forcibly taken away by them.
After entering the door, two women came forward.
"Gentlemen, do you want to drink?"
"Yes, do you have any good wine?"
After Lan Yao asked, the woman covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled coquettishly.
"Don't worry, sir. We have all the good wines here. We have all the wines that are available outside, and we also have the wines that are not available outside."
After saying that, she threw a coquettish glance at Lan Yao.
Lan Yao scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
"We're just here to drink."
"I know, just drink it without worry, follow me."
Feeling that this place was unusual, the few people were afraid of causing trouble, so they did not go to the private room, but sat in the lobby downstairs.
After a few jugs of wine were served, Shi Lou's eyes lit up.
"Brother Sheng, the wine here is really unusual. The aroma of wine fills the air as soon as the lid is opened. We must drink more today."
Gu Sheng glanced at him, he shrank his head, turned around and tasted a cup himself.
Gu Sheng also poured a glass and took a sip. The wine was fine, clean and tasted really good.
Seeing that Gu Sheng didn't say anything after drinking, the few people became bolder.
After drinking a jar of wine, Lan Yao ordered another one.
Gu Sheng didn't say anything, but he didn't drink anymore either.
Perhaps because he didn't say anything, Lan Yao became bolder and ordered two more jars of wine.
Looking at their tipsy appearance, Gu Sheng couldn't help but frown.
Just as he was about to speak, two women came over, put one hand behind Gu Sheng's neck, and leaned against him tenderly.
"Sir, it's so boring for a group of men to drink. Do you want us to accompany you?"
Gu Sheng pushed her away and said coldly, "No need."
The two women didn't care and moved closer to him with a smile.
Gu Sheng refused again and again, but the woman acted as if she didn't see it and continued talking to herself.
Gu Sheng was a little angry, his tone became much heavier, and the words he said were not pleasant.
The two women curled their lips and then retreated.
Feeling a little angry, Gu Sheng wanted to have a drink to calm down.
Just as he raised his glass, the man who had been following them suddenly rushed over and knocked the glass out of Gu Sheng's hand.
The wine glass slipped and spilled all over Gu Sheng.
Looking at him, Gu Sheng's face darkened.
At this time, the man suddenly said: "Sir, it's getting late, we should go back."
Hearing this, Gu Sheng felt a little strange.
He called him Young Master for no reason and winked at him behind other people's backs. Why?
Gu Sheng didn't say anything, and the man urged him again: "Sir, the master is already urging you to go back. If you don't go back, I won't be able to explain. Let's go back."
After thinking about it, Gu Sheng nodded.
"Okay, let's go back."
Gu Sheng dragged the confused Er Gou and others away from the winery. (End of this chapter)
