I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 169 Leave

"Mr. Gu, are you sure you are not kidding? Wuyun City has a population of over a million. If it is true as you said, what kind of incident would cause such casualties?"

Hearing the question from the woman in front of him, Gu Nian'an couldn't help but smile bitterly. He actually thought it was just a joke, but things don't always go as planned. Some things won't happen even if you don't want them to.

He turned his head and stared at Li Hongyu. Gu Nian'an's words became more serious.

"Miss Li, to be honest, I don't know exactly what will happen, but based on my previous experiments on my eyes, the accuracy should be acceptable. But if Miss Li doesn't believe me, just think of it as a joke."

"It's not that I don't believe it, but what Master Gu said is a little too shocking, so...~"

Before Li Hongyu finished speaking, Ye Jinxiu walked up and patted her shoulder gently, then stared at Gu Nian'an's golden and silver eyes.

"Mr. Hongyu Gu is not the kind of person who would joke like this, and some things are better to believe than not.

Just Mr. Gu, what do you think we should do next? "

"Leave, leave as soon as possible. I don't know what will happen in Wuyun City, but just last night I encountered a monster that sucked human blood.

He has a very strong vitality, and even when I pierced his chest with a spear, it had no effect at all. He also has the ability to move through space, so in terms of speed, he may be even faster than me."

After taking a quick look at the people whose faces gradually became serious, Gu Nian'an spoke again, "Your fighting power is not that outstanding. If you encounter that monster, it will be difficult for you to survive. So don't gamble your life on illusory luck. Leave as soon as possible."

"Great calamity, a blood-sucking monster."

This is really becoming more and more troublesome.

But...～Alas!

Ye Jinxiu showed a helpless smile and said, "Master Gu, we are here to attend the wedding of a junior nephew. How can we leave without a reason before the wedding starts?

Besides, there are millions of innocent people in Wuyun City. Now that we know about this, we can’t leave.”

Oh! Really? Should I stay? But this will only make things more troublesome.

With the help of the people from the Yanyue Sect, it would be easier for him to find the cause of the changes in Wuyun City.

But nothing is absolute. If he fails to stop the change before it happens, he cannot guarantee that he will still be able to protect their safety at that time.

“Madam, why don’t you listen to Brother Gu? You, the Major General, and Miss Xue should leave as soon as possible, and we will stay to assist Brother Gu in investigating this matter.

As for the wedding, let Miss Hongyu deal with it first, and you can come to the wedding after the crisis is resolved. Do you think this is feasible?"

Turning her head and looking at Xu Biao, Ye Jinxiu thought about it for a while and finally shook her head, "I know you mean well, but there is no one in our Yanyue Sect who is afraid of death.

Besides, your general is a hero on the frontier battlefield, and as his family, how can we let him be humiliated?"

"Madam, your safety is the most important thing. Even if the general is here, he will not agree to your taking risks. Besides, Miss Xue..."

Before Xu Biao could continue speaking, Ye Jinxiu interrupted him and said, "General Xu, there is no need to talk about this matter anymore. We will not leave until the crisis in Wuyun City is resolved."

Then Ye Jinxiu turned around and smiled at Shen Qiuxue, "I think Xue girl thinks the same as I do."

Shen Qiuxue, who was still in a trance, nodded quickly after hearing what her master said.

"Yes, yes, Master is right. I will not leave."

Seeing that everyone wanted to continue arguing, Gu Nian'an couldn't help but frowned.

"Okay, let's stop discussing this for now. I've told you everything I know. Make a decision as soon as possible whether to stay or leave. Once something unexpected happens, it may be difficult for you to leave."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jinxiu's face turned extremely serious and she made the decision, "Okay, I have already made the decision. There is no need to argue about it now. Xu Biao and Xu Hu, you two go to the county governor's mansion to say hello, and then transfer all the troops left outside the city into the city just in case.

Hongyu, go and book this inn. We will stay here first. As for other matters, we can discuss them after we have settled down."

After hearing Ye Jinxiu's firm decision, the others had nothing to say and could only do as she instructed.

After everyone left, Gu Nian'an shook his head helplessly. It seemed that his good intentions were in vain. He just hoped that they would be safe and sound in the future.

After all, they were all people he was familiar with, and he didn't want to see anything unexpected happen to the people in the Yanyue Sect.

In a blink of an eye, night fell. Gu Nian'an sat up from the bed, stretched out his hand to take the flying spear, and then walked out of the inn step by step. He decided that he had to go out and try his luck to see if he could meet Du Yuming again.

There is no clue about the catastrophe for now, so it would be better to find Du Yuming first to find out about my uncle’s current condition.

Although I haven't figured out a way to crack his teleportation, I might as well find something to do since I'm free. Anyway, I don't have much need for sleep anymore.

But when he just walked downstairs, he saw a man sitting alone in the middle of the lobby drinking tea.

"Mrs. Jiang, it's so late, aren't you asleep yet?"

Putting down the teacup in her hand, Ye Jinxiu looked at Gu Nian'an, who was dressed neatly.

“There are some things I need to think through, so I can’t sleep.

But Master Gu thinks you are ready to go out."

"Well, I don't need much sleep, so I might as well go out and see if I can find any clues."

"Mr. Gu, if you are not in a hurry, how about we sit down and have a cup of tea together?"

Without rejecting Ye Jinxiu's invitation, Gu Nian'an slowly walked to the table and sat down. Then he picked up the tea that had been poured on the table and asked:

"Is Madam Jiang waiting for me?"

"I guess so. I noticed that Mr. Gu rarely went out during the day, so I thought you would take action at night, so I tried my luck here."

"Mrs. Jiang wants to see me for something."

Hearing the young man's question, Ye Jinxiu's eyes flashed with a complicated look, "I'm just a little upset and want to talk to you."

Hearing this, Gu Nian'an also sighed silently.

"Alas! Since you have some concerns in your heart, you might as well leave Wuyun City as soon as possible. I don't know what will happen here next, and I don't know if I can escape unscathed. Once something unexpected happens, I'm really not sure if I will have the energy to take care of the safety of others."

After hearing the young man's words, Ye Jinxiu took a sip of the tea on the table and said, "Mr. Gu, in fact, since the moment we entered Wuyun City, it is a little unrealistic to leave."

"Oh, I wonder what Mrs. Jiang means by this?"

"Mr. Gu, what do you think of the current situation in the world?"
