Gu Immortal, Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu

The night breeze blows across my face, and the fragrance of the grass is clear and refreshing, which should not bring discomfort and coldness to people.

But Li Changsheng felt a chill down his spine. He was unsure about Xu Da's kindness. He suspected that Xu Da was grateful for not killing him, and he also suspected that Xu Da wanted to get closer to him so that he could better control his whereabouts.

"I cannot trust anyone who is loyal to the Empress. It seems that I must find a replacement immediately."

Li Changsheng instructed Liu Chengwu about his journey to the south, asking him to keep an eye out for humanoid beasts, rare Yuanshi puppets and other objects.

Li Changsheng has a puppet Gu in his hand, which allows him to control the Gu beast as if it were his own arm within a certain range. Finding a substitute would be safer than disguising a second identity.

Back in the tent, Li Changsheng set his sights on the young man with sparkling eyes.

"Brother Zhao, I understand that you are from Gunzhou. You should have a Gu beast like the Spirit Detecting Rat."

The young man raised his head and said, "Indeed, I do have it, but my spirit-detecting rat is of a very low level, so there aren't many places where it can be used."

"Trade it to me. I heard that there are many scattered Yuanshi mines outside the northern border. I want to experience the feeling of treasure hunting."

Li Changsheng took out five thousand yuan stones and placed them beside the bed.

Brother Zhao from Gunzhou frowned, feeling quite reluctant.

The Soul-Exploring Rat Gu Beast is very famous in the Great Yan Kingdom.

The method of breeding is in the hands of the great families in Gunzhou.

Generally speaking, the price of a first-level spirit-detecting rat is upwards of 15,000 yuan stones.

Because the spirit-detecting rat is also known as the treasure-hunting rat, if it is lucky, it can find some rare treasures in the wild, which will be enough to offset the purchase cost.

As for the second-level spirit-detecting rat, it is even more expensive. Li Changsheng took out five thousand yuan stones, which would have been ridiculed by him in the past.

But it’s very difficult for Brother Zhao now!

Because Li Changsheng reconnected his severed limbs at noon, he was able to avoid being abandoned by his family.

There is no need to say much about this kindness, which cannot be replaced by tens of thousands of yuan of stones.

"In the Northern Frontier, all kinds of cultivation resources are very scarce. These five thousand Yuan stones are all your assets, right?"

Li Changsheng smiled noncommittally and said, "Brother Zhao, are you willing to change?"

"You helped me, so I won't be stingy. I'll give you this poisonous insect."

Brother Zhao took out the Gu bag and handed over a palm-sized white snow mouse with golden eyes.

Li Changsheng took it, nodded and left.

Looking at Li Changsheng's departing back and then looking at the five thousand yuan stones on the bedside, Brother Zhao smiled and gladly accepted them.

Outside the tent, Li Changsheng gently stroked the little head of the spirit mouse, and the puppet Gu jumped out of the Gu bag and landed on the back of the little mouse.

"Go abroad to look for relics of the previous dynasty. It would be great if we could find the Zhenling Mausoleum."

Li Changsheng threw the puppet Gu on the rat's back with his hand, and it hissed, then fell into the darkness of the military camp and headed straight out of the Great Wall.

Li Changsheng sensed it briefly, and the mental power bestowed on him by the Red Blood Demon Vine made it easier for him to get in touch with the Puppet Gu.

Within a radius of one thousand miles, he can receive messages from the puppet Gu.

It’s just not very detailed, there is no sound or picture, just a simple notification and warning.

"It's a pity that there is no fourth-level spirit-detecting rat, otherwise the distance could be increased a lot."

After doing this, Li Changsheng rushed to the captain's tent.

The guard at the door was already familiar with his face and did not say anything cold. Instead, he immediately notified the centurion.

"You came just in time!"

After entering the tent, the centurion came forward holding a letter with the seal of General Zuo.

"Something happened to the left army that left the city the day before yesterday. They were poisoned by a vine and all of them lost their sense of the outside world. I will take over their mission. I plan to lead the troops to set off tonight, and you will come with me."

Li Changsheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he pretended to be surprised and asked for details.

A poison that can send a thousand people into a frenzy is extremely rare anywhere.

"You don't have to worry too much. I will make arrangements when we get there."

The centurion waved his hand, forcing Li Changsheng to temporarily suppress what he was about to say.

After leaving the tent, Li Changsheng ran into Wu Yun head-on.

Wu Yun raised his eyebrows, stared at him with his deep blue eyes, and clasped his fists slightly to greet him: "It seems that Brother Li will also be accompanying the army."

Li Changsheng didn't want to have too much contact with Wu Yun, so he nodded and politely made way.

But Wu Yun was calm and not anxious. "Yesterday I was thinking that it would be a real pity if a talent like Brother Li could not stay in the Ningyuan Army. I believe the captain also thought of this and let you join the army to fight."

Li Changsheng didn't quite understand what Wu Yun meant.

"Although Brother Li is a member of the advance army, you are now participating in the Ningyuan Army's mission, and you can also accumulate military merits. With Brother Li's ability, I believe that you will soon become famous in the northern border."

"Accumulate military merit?"

Li Changsheng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Only after Wu Yun reminded him did he remember that the Ningyuan Army had a lot of good things.

If I remember correctly, among the things that Ning Yuanjun could exchange for military merits, there was a fourth-level Shadow Face Gu that could solve his urgent problem.

The function of the fourth-level Shadow Face Gu is very simple. It can make the Gu master's body blend into the shadow and come and go silently.

This kind of poisonous insect is rarely seen in the military, but it is very common in the underground forces of the Great Yan Kingdom, such as killer organizations and intelligence organizations. It is more suitable for swordsmen and assassins to disguise and sneak.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Shadow Smile Gu is almost non-existent and it is just an auxiliary Gu worm, its value can vary in the hands of different strong men.

"Brother Li, this time the mission was assigned to a trusted confidant because General Zuo was short of manpower. You must remember to perform well."

After saying this, Wu Yun walked past him.

Li Changsheng hummed, glanced at Wu Yun's back, and became even more alert.

Wu Yun gives people the impression of being just a handsome man with a slightly feminine side.

But Li Changsheng, who knew the plot, understood that Wu Yun was definitely a ruthless character with a heart as hard as stone and a thousand-year-old black ice.

If you really think of Wu Yun as a gentle man, you will probably be the first to die from Wu Yun's backstab.

"Go to the Ordnance Department to check."

Li Changsheng wandered around the military camp, and because of his identity as a high-level healing Gu Master, he became famous in just one day.

Although he was questioned along the way, no one made things difficult for him. Instead, he got to know several other centurions.

There was even a big shot who was said to be on his staff who nodded to him in respect.

Li Changsheng dealt with them one by one and checked the items that could be exchanged for military merits at the ordnance department.

"As expected, there is a Shadow Gu, but the price of such a useless insect is terribly high! Not only does one need to be a centurion, but one also needs 300,000 military merits."

Li Changsheng touched his chin and closed the book, wondering how long it would take to gain so much military merit.

The Ningyuan Army’s military merit system has a guaranteed minimum reward. As long as you participate in the mission, you will gain something regardless of whether you have outstanding performance or not.

But the limit is the level of a thousand-man captain. If you want to move up further, you will need a series of abilities such as qualifications, appearance, family background, and wisdom.
