Chapter 19: Some Small Rules of Lihyue
"What are you doing? Why didn't you go investigate immediately!"
The head of the Qianyan Army was directing the team that arrived first at the scene, then glanced at the source of the voice, his expression freezing.
"This is... the Gu Family?"
"Yes, Commander. It seems someone has intruded into the Gu Family and caused trouble. We didn't dare to enter."
In Lihyue Harbor, there were certain regulations or perhaps unwritten rules that the Qianyan Army had to remember. The rule about not entering the Gu Family at night was particularly well-remembered, possibly more intriguing than the top three rules.
However, curiosity had led to the deaths of several people before, so the soldiers in the establishment restrained their inner curiosity.
From inside came screams of agony and sounds of flesh being torn apart, making the rule of "not entering the Gu Family at night" seem like a rule that saved lives.
"Captain, what do we do now?"
"Send a team to reassure the nearby residents. Just let them know someone has intruded into the Gu Family; they'll understand."
"Moreover, this incident may not be unintentional."
In the courtyard of the Gu Family, watching the giant shadow eagle cleaning feathers by the pond, Gu Sanqiu couldn't help but touch his nose with some helplessness.
The reason why the shadow eagle could eat corpses was mainly due to adjustments made to its digestive system during research, designed to handle the complex and unpredictable environments of reconnaissance missions.
But purely in terms of appetite, it was only at the level of a common spirit bird.
Moreover, this was Lihyue Harbor; he couldn't summon large flocks of birds to clean up the scene like last time.
Leaving aside whether they would be shot down by night owls, the issue of whether they could enter was still a problem.
"Yeah, I can do it again, scaring those idiots even more."
Gu Sanqiu snapped his fingers, and the elemental power of the Eye of the Gods around his waist began to spread. Like waves rolling over mud, it quickly transported the bodies of the cannon fodder to the same place.
"Go in."
Gu Sanqiu used his fishing rod to send all the corpses into the black hole. He gently swayed his right hand, as if enticing a big fish to bite the bait.
Last time, he didn't immediately push the fishing rod in, which caught the giant legged chicken off guard. He wouldn't make the same mistake twice.
"Oh, here it comes."
Gu Sanqiu raised an eyebrow, delighted by the purple light emanating from the dissipating black hole.
He murmured, it wasn't easy. He actually managed to draw a purple today. This golden finger didn't come with a safety net or anything like that.
He once doubted whether pushing the fishing rod in was like operating a doll machine, causing the probability of getting good things to plummet, accompanied by blue skies and white clouds.
"Think about it, which of the great luckiest in Tivat, found the time to bring him down and make him a minion under my hand, and then suck up the emperor's luck."
The pulling force of the fishing rod gradually weakened, and Gu Sanqiu pulled hard with his right hand. A purple light flashed from the black hole, and fell to the ground with a "bang".
It was a large green brick, at least hollowed out and made into a stone coffin was no problem.
"Ah? It's not alive, it's a little uncomfortable."
Gu Sanqiu was somewhat disappointed. If it was like last time, he would definitely let the prey run away maliciously, and then let it break a little in Feiyun Hill.
"What's happening here? Why didn't you investigate the situation immediately!"
The head of the Qianyan Army was reprimanding the troops who had arrived first at the scene, then glanced at the speaker, his expression momentarily stiffening.
"Is this... the Gu Family?"
"Yes, Commander. It appears someone intruded into the Gu Family and caused trouble. We didn't dare enter."
In Lihyue Harbor, the rules or perhaps certain unspoken rules were something the Qianyan Army had to firmly remember. Among them, refraining from entering the Gu Family at night was particularly well-regarded, more intriguing than the top three rules.
Given that curious individuals had perished before, the soldiers in the establishment restrained their curiosity.
From inside came cries of agony and sounds suggesting flesh being torn, reinforcing that the rule of "not entering the Gu Family at night" was indeed life-saving.
"Captain, what's our next move?"
"Send a team to reassure nearby residents. Just inform them that someone intruded into the Gu Family; they'll understand."
"Besides, this incident may not be accidental."
In the courtyard of the Gu Family, Gu Sanqiu watched the giant shadow eagle cleaning feathers by the pond with a touch of helplessness.
The shadow eagle's ability to consume corpses stemmed from adjustments made to its digestive system during research, tailored for the varied and unpredictable conditions of reconnaissance missions.
Yet, purely in terms of appetite, it was merely at the level of a common spiritual bird.
Moreover, this was Lihyue Harbor; he couldn't summon large flocks of birds to handle the scene like last time.
Setting aside the risk of some being shot down by night prowlers, the question of whether they could enter was paramount.
"Yeah, I could do it again, scaring those idiots even more."
Gu Sanqiu snapped his fingers, and the elemental power of the Eye of the Gods around his waist began to diffuse. Like ripples on mud, it quickly transported the cannon fodder's bodies to the same place.
"Go inside."
Gu Sanqiu used his fishing rod to send all the corpses into the black hole. He gently swayed his right hand, as if coaxing a large fish onto the hook.
Last time, he hadn't immediately pushed the fishing rod in, causing the giant-legged chicken to catch him off guard. He wouldn't make that mistake twice.
"Oh, here it comes."
Gu Sanqiu raised an eyebrow, delighted by the purple light emanating from the dissipating black hole.
He murmured, "Not easy. I actually managed to draw a purple today. This golden finger doesn't guarantee anything like a pity timer."
He had once doubted if pushing the fishing rod in was like operating a claw machine, causing the probability of obtaining good things to plummet, accompanied by clear skies and white clouds.
"Think about it, which guy in Tivat has particularly outrageous luck? Find time to grab him and have him serve under me, rubbing off some of that emperor's luck."
The pulling force of the fishing rod gradually lessened, and Gu Sanqiu pulled back with his right hand. A purple-light-flashing square emerged from the black hole and landed on the ground with a dull thud.
It was a large brick, easily hollowed out to serve as a stone coffin.
"Huh? It's not alive, a bit disappointing."
Gu Sanqiu felt somewhat let down. If it were like last time, he would have definitely maliciously let the prey escape, then let it cause some minor havoc on Feiyun Hill.
At that time, which was who he was? cry land flock
