Shen Lian opened the letter and read it, his expression immediately changed.
Shen Wanquan stretched his head: "What does the letter say?"
Shen Lian read: "Danger lurks in Snow Ridge City, evacuate quickly!"
Shen Wanquan's breathing stagnated, his expression changed!
Second mother clutched her chest and exclaimed: "What danger?"
Shen Lian did not speak, he only burned the letter along with the envelope.
Shen Lian was silent for a while, he raised his head and looked at Shen Lian, asking: "Lian 'er, do you really want to walk on the path of a Gu Master?"
Shen Lian nodded: "The world is dangerous, I want to obtain the strength to protect myself, and also to protect the people I care about from dying an unnatural death."
"Sigh, it seems that Zhu tribe's tragedy has affected you deeply. So be it. Just do as you wish. "
Shen Wanquan sighed deeply and changed the topic: "What do you think of Sister Yu's message?"
Shen Lian analyzed: "We are indebted to Liu Ru Yi, Sister Yu has no reason to harm us. Her message should be a warning to us, but due to some kind of fear, she did not elaborate."
Shen Wanquan nodded: "I think so too, this warning should not be groundless, we have to pay attention to it."
Second mother: "Master, just based on her words, we really have to evacuate. Snow Ridge City is the foundation of Shen tribe!"
Shen Wanquan stared: "You are short-sighted! Have you forgotten Zhu tribe's bloody tragedy? "
Second mother suddenly thought of Zhu tribe, her face turned pale as she said in astonishment: "Shen tribe has always been low-key, we have done many good deeds, how could we incur such a terrifying heavenly punishment?"
Shen Wanquan shook his head and sighed: "If it is a blessing, it is not a calamity, but if it is a calamity, we cannot avoid it. We have to plan ahead. "
Shen Lian's gaze flashed: "Father, does our Shen tribe have property in other places?"
"Yes! On the way from Snow Ridge City to Black Rock City, there is a 'Wei Yang Inn', the owner is called Fan Dashan, he is Fan Li's nephew.
On the surface, Wei Yang Inn is owned by Fan Dashan, but in reality, it's owned by our Shen family. It's all for today's situation. Once there's a calamity, the Shen family will have a safe escape route. "
Shen Wanquan exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. He was prepared for a rainy day, so he no longer panicked.
"That's great!" Shen Lian praised. This was one of the good things about a rich family. They secretly set up many safety measures to prevent trouble before it happened.
In fact, the Zhu Family should also have made such an insurance arrangement, but the tragedy happened too quickly, and they were caught off guard and exterminated.
Subsequently, Shen Wanquan called Steward Fan Li and Old Man Sun over to discuss the evacuation plan.
The Shen Lian sent a servant to Bai Lifei to inform him to leave together.
When the servant came back, he reported that Bai Lifei had not returned for two days and his whereabouts were unknown!
Shen Lian was stunned. "The last time he appeared, what was he doing?"
The servant replied, "I asked. Two days ago, yamen chief constable Chen Yuanxi suddenly paid a visit. He said that there was a missing child case in the city. Five children mysteriously went missing. The case was very strange, so he asked the old divine constable to help him analyze the case. The old divine constable was warm-hearted and could not ignore it, so he went and never came back. "
"Did you go to the yamen to ask for information?"
The servant exclaimed and quickly ran to the yamen.
When he came back, his expression was not good. "Eldest young master, Chen Yuanxi and the three constables also went missing for two days. If they're dead, they're missing. The district magistrate ordered the entire city to search for them."
A storm is coming!
Shen Lian suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
He returned to his room and immediately took out the Milk Cow Gu. He cut his finger and fed it with his blood.
Sure enough, the Milk Cow Gu was a second-hand Gu. This thing had an owner and was not interested in Shen Lian's blood. After smelling it, it did not do anything else. It actually did not drink it!
"Nainai, life trickster Gu, it's time for you to appear!" Shen Lian called out impatiently.
The life trickster Gu did not disappoint and suddenly appeared beside the Milk Cow Gu.
The Milk Cow Gu that was as fat as a toad suddenly shrunk when it saw the life trickster Gu. Its body shrunk and became half its original size.
Shen Lian then realized that the Milk Cow Gu was in the shape of a tortoise's head. Its head could freely retract into its neck and not come out!
The life trickster Gu ignored it and waved its hand, "Dao friend, please wait, no, please release your tortoise head!"
The Milk Cow Gu slowly stretched its head out as if it was possessed.
The life trickster Gu leaned on the Milk Cow Gu and passionately talked to it, as if it was trying to bewitch it, "Brother, from now on, follow me. I will find you seventy-two virgins to be your wives. What? Can't handle it? Don't worry, I have medicine. I guarantee your tortoise head will turn into a golden spear and not fall down seven times a night."
Then, the unyielding Milk Cow Gu … obeyed!
After drinking Shen Lian's blood, it released a thought attack. Shen Lian regained his spirit and refined it!
The Milk Cow Gu sneaked into Shen Lian's body. It was a Host Gu and did not open an aperture. It directly followed the life trickster Gu into the Grandmaster Gu's aperture.
The Grandmaster Gu seemed to know the use of the Milk Cow Gu and did not angrily chase it away. Instead, it warmly welcomed its arrival.
Thus, the three Gu happily cohabited.
Shen Lian glanced at the lonely Iron Skin Gu and felt that it was being fed dog food.
The Milk Cow Gu lay beside the Grandmaster Gu and breathed in and out.
With one breath, the dense primeval energy was absorbed by it; with another breath, a bronze liquid flowed out.
"I condensed primeval essence!"
The primeval energy in the aperture continued to thin and the bronze primeval essence at the bottom gradually rose.
While the Milk Cow Gu was absorbing the primeval energy, the Grandmaster Gu was not idle either. It sat cross-legged and breathed in and out, continuously refining primeval energy from its body into the aperture.
Shen Lian felt that his body was undergoing an intense transformation and an indescribable feeling of hunger attacked him.
"Medicinal wine, thank goodness I have medicinal wine!"
The digestion of food was not fast enough to cause such a drastic change, only medicinal wine could do it.
Shen Lian carried a jar of ten complete tonic wine and gulped it down. This was far from enough, he drank ginseng wine, ginseng velvet wine, multiple whip strengthening wine, whatever he had.
This continued for four to five hours before the Grandmaster Gu's green copper primeval essence finally stopped rising.
It looked like a transparent balloon filled with liquid. The liquid was at the bottom, occupying about ten percent of the space.
The three Gu floated on the liquid surface of the green copper primeval essence, bobbing up and down, looking very satisfied.
Shen Lian was also overjoyed!
"Primeval essence occupying ten percent of the aperture's space, this means I have advanced to Bronze rank one Gu Master!"
Shen Lian took a deep breath and walked to the courtyard, arriving in front of an old tree that required three people to wrap their arms around it.
He slowly pulled out the Chasing Wind Sword and activated the green copper primeval essence in his aperture. A strand of green copper luster was released and enveloped the sword body. Immediately, the entire Chasing Wind Sword burst out with a cold green light.
A strong energy wave swept out, shaking the surrounding space and creating ripples in the surroundings.
Shen Lian's sword swept horizontally!
Swoosh!
It was as if the whole world was cut into two halves!
The old tree was cut in half and under the aftermath of the sword qi, it crashed to the ground.
"Just a strand of primeval essence was able to make the blade so sharp!"
Shen Lian was shocked and finally understood the terrifying aspect of a Bronze rank Gu Master, and what was the point of being extraordinary.
"If I use Overflow Rain Sword, the power would be even more terrifying!"
