Chapter 7 Monster Mountain
"Haha, look at me. Seeing Brother Gu rushing to the Monster Mountain in such a hurry, I was so anxious to persuade you that I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Sun Yi. I'm now a Fighter Nine Stars. I have been in the Monster Mountain for two years. I'm here to make a living with everyone." Sun Yi touched his head and said in a simple and honest manner.
"But what I said is true. Even in the outskirts of the Monster Mountain Range, there are some dangerous monsters. Some dangerous animals are even more dangerous than the first-level monsters. So once you enter the range of the Monster Mountain Range, you can't be careless, otherwise you may lose your life."
Seeing that he has gradually entered the state and looks like he is really thinking about himself, Gu He decided to use him as a spice for the boring journey. It is also a pleasure to watch others perform their best without knowing that they have been seen through. And if he is really malicious, then I will have no psychological pressure to kill him, and it will be much faster to find the small valley with such an old man whose life is in my hands.
Therefore, Gu He pretended to think for a few minutes, and then agreed to hire him as his bodyguard and guide for this trip to the Warcraft Mountains, 1,000 gold coins within three days, and 200 gold coins per day after three days.
"In the Monster Mountain Range, the most dangerous thing is not the monsters, but the humans who are also mercenaries. As soon as you see a monster, you will judge it as an enemy and never raise your vigilance against it. However, as soon as you see a person, you cannot judge whether it is an enemy or a friend, because many mercenaries make a living by hunting down other mercenaries. They are usually very cruel. In order to prevent the news from spreading, they will usually take away all the valuables from you and then kill you. Therefore, every time you enter the Monster Mountain Range, it is no different from entering the gates of hell."
"And you need to pay special attention to some people who ask for help inside. They deliberately make themselves miserable in order to arouse your sympathy, let you relax your vigilance, and then knock you down."
"So the Monster Mountain Range is far from being as simple as you think. Time will prove how worthwhile it is for you to hire me." Sun Yi explained the terrain of the Monster Mountain Range, the distribution of beasts, and the customs among mercenaries in the Monster Mountain Range to Gu He like a dedicated tour guide.
At this moment, even Gu He admired his scheming. It seemed that speaking these experiences from the bottom of his heart made Gu He wary of other people in the Monster Mountain Range, but if people really listened to him, would they be wary of him as the one who said such a thing? It is very suspicious. In this way, he gained the employer's gratitude without spending a penny and also reduced the employer's vigilance against him. When they arrived at the Monster Mountain Range, Sun Yi was familiar with the place. He could just follow Sun Yi's lead and the employer would follow his lead. As long as he could lead Gu He to a place where monsters often appeared and then ambush and kill Gu He, he could get all of Gu He's property without arousing suspicion.
Gu He glanced at him calmly and pretended to be grateful and said, "I would like to trouble Brother Sun to teach me more experience of survival here."
Sun Yi waved his hand magnanimously and said, "I should be loyal to people who entrust me with this. This is what I should do. Why should I thank you?"
After entering the forest, Sun Yi's muscles were tense and his voice was much lower. Gu He increased his soul power to sense the surrounding situation. When he sensed that there were no people around, he knocked Sun Yi unconscious.
He randomly found a cave and used flames to burn himself all around. When he saw that all the plants around him were burned to ashes, Gu He spread a layer of dry cloth on the ground, and then used a bottle of ice-attribute spiritual spring medicine to feed Sun Yi.
Sun Yi's whole body shuddered and he woke up. Seeing Gu He sitting beside him, he didn't believe that such a newcomer could see through his plan, so he asked, "Brother Gu, what do you mean by this?"
Gu He glanced at him indifferently, and the soul power contained in his eyes immediately made Sun Yi close his mouth as if his throat was pinched.
"I ask, you answer. If you can't answer, you die." Gu He has never had any interest in talking to such a malicious guy.
Sun Yi nodded in fear, and he had not yet recovered from the shock of facing Gu He's soul. He was in a daze.
"Where are you going to take me after entering the forest, and what are you going to do with me in the end?" Gu He asked without any emotion.
"I am going to take you to a cave in the forest, and then take away your belongings. What happens next depends on your luck." Sun Yi told Gu He his true thoughts in this state.
Gu He sneered slightly, and Sun Yi became a little more sober. After realizing what he said, his face turned pale.
"Brother Gu, I was just talking nonsense just now. Don't take it seriously. How could I do such a thing?" Sun Yi explained with a dry laugh, trying his best to hide his panic.
"Brother Sun, to be honest, I admire your psychological quality. You are still trying to make excuses even when you are about to die. I just used the power of the soul to impact your soul, making you unable to think for a period of time. You can only act according to your own heart. When others ask you questions, you will speak out the most real thoughts in your heart. Tell me, do I believe you or myself?" Gu He saw that Sun Yi was still trying to make excuses at this time, so he simply told him what happened just now, letting him be the one who knows.
"Power of the soul, you are an alchemist."
"How can you be an alchemist? Aren't alchemists protected by a group of people? Isn't it an extremely safe profession! How can you need one person to come to the Monster Mountain Range?" Sun Yi said excitedly when he heard the power of the soul.
"I am indeed an alchemist, but it seems that you have some prejudice against alchemists. Alchemists are not powerless people. A skilled alchemist has extremely strong combat power." Gu He thought that Xiao Yan was not only an alchemist, but also had a crazy combat power, often fighting in a higher realm, and couldn't help but sigh.
"As for the reason why I came to the Monster Mountain Range, it was not forced by anyone. The reason I told you in the town was true. I went to the Monster Mountain Range to find some medicinal materials."
"Is that so? It turns out that alchemists are such a good profession!" Sun Yi listened to Gu He's explanation and said with some relief.
"It seems that someone close to you is going to become an alchemist!" Gu He directly stated his guess.
"Yes! As long as I can raise enough money to become a disciple, my daughter can become a disciple of Master Nigu, and then she can become a pharmacist." Sun Yi said with hope. "
Since it is a matter of reason, then you just need to take me to a large basin full of rare medicinal herbs in the outside world, and I will spare your life!" Gu He listened to his words and thought for a while.
