Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 122 Infiltration
Gong Tianwu laughed and said:

"I went to save people, not to conflict with these two brothers."

Hua Shilang stared at Gong Tianwu for several seconds and said:

"It's very dangerous if you go alone. I'm not kidding. Even if you are a monster, you will be dead if you are caught."

"Besides, you are a human being. I'm not trying to scare you, but if you die in there, you won't even have a complete body."

Gong Tianwu pondered for a moment and said:

"Let's put it this way. I always plan things out before I act. I prefer to be cautious when doing things."

"Shiro, if you can provide me with some relevant detailed information, I will study it and make a decision."

Hua Shilang said:

"That's no problem."

He directly took out a thick document from his arms and handed it to Gong Tianwu. It seemed that he had prepared it.

At this time, Gong Tianwu hesitated for a moment and said:

"There is one more thing I want to ask you."

Hua Shilang said:

"Brother Shi, you say."

Gong Tianwu said:

"If I accidentally get into a conflict with the Yuan family, what if the other side gets hurt?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Hua Shilang's mouth:
"I have no ability. How can I blame others if someone gets hurt or dies?"

Gong Tianwu pondered for a moment and said:

"Is this the intention of the East Ya District, or the intention of the little city lord?"

Hua Shilang said:

"The Yuan family moved to Mujiang City more than ten years ago and opened up a separate courtyard."

"During the Fire Basin Festival that year, the younger generation of the Yuan family came out to challenge our generation, and after they injured someone, they said the above words."

"Since then, every year during the Torch Festival, we young people have to fight and compete with each other."

"Those bastards from the Yuan family never hold back, and they often hurt people at every turn. They have also won over several big families in Mujiang City."

Gong Tianwu thought for a moment and said:
"I'm afraid this is the way the two city lords control their subordinates. They are probably not very satisfied with you six demon generals, but it's not to the point of replacing you."

"So, we directly introduced the uncontrollable factor of the Yuan family to make you feel a sense of crisis that you might be replaced."

Hua Shilang was suddenly stunned. After several seconds, he said in disbelief:
"How could this happen?"

Gong Tianwu smiled and said nonchalantly:
"Then just treat it as nonsense."

Hua Shilang stayed there for a while, frowning:
"But I think what you said makes sense. How do you know so much?"

Gong Tianwu smiled bitterly and sighed:
"We are all old friends. I won't hide it from you, brother. I am now a disciple of Daxueshan."

"Are those brothers and sisters in the sect easy to deal with? They are all like black-eyed chickens, scheming against each other!"

"In such an environment, if I didn't have a little bit of wit, I would have been eaten alive."

After hearing this, Hanashiro nodded and said:

"Yeah, it's not easy."

Gong Tianwu continued:
"In fact, you may also be wondering why I am not an ordinary person. I like female fairies and I also like to make friends with all the brothers in the demon tribe."

"Then I'll say something from the bottom of my heart. For example, if you suddenly get a great fortune, I can only happily congratulate you, because no matter how well you live, it can't threaten my position in the sect."

"Similarly, if I get a great benefit, will it affect your position in the family? Will it cause you to get less resources?"

After hearing this, Hua Shilang showed an expression of deep agreement on his face.

Seeing this, Gong Tianwu thought to himself:

As expected, the internal strife within the big family is not immune to it, even the monster family is not immune.

Unless there is a leader among the next generation who stands out and clearly suppresses his peers, internal strife and infighting are inevitable.

Then he continued to say to Hanashiro:
"But you don't have to be too anxious. According to my inference, even if it comes to the worst, it should only make your six major demon general families give up some power, and this power vacuum will be taken over by the Yuan family."

"The two city lords will not really give up their power to the Yuan family. After all, the ancestor behind the Yuan family (Yuan Hong) is not an easy person to deal with."

Listening to Gong Tianwu's words, Hua Shilang nodded repeatedly, and then said to him:
"I heard that Senior Brother wants to get some Xuantong Oil?"

Gong Tianwu nodded.

Hanashiro whispered:

"Come to me in a couple of days. I have a way, but it's probably only about one or two kilograms."

Gong Tianwu immediately said:

"I need no thanks for your kindness. Silang, you helped me this time, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"

Hua Shilang nodded, handed a box to Gong Tianwu, and turned to leave.

***
To be honest, in Hua Shilang's heart, he originally disapproved of this "brother Shi" who suddenly appeared.

However, after this conversation, Hua Shilang found that this person was not simple. Although his words were not pearls of wisdom, they touched his heart.

To be honest, there are many things that Hua Shilang has never analyzed and viewed from such a perspective in his life.

Considering that this brother's master was also a master, he could even make his father and Master Rong owe him the debt of gratitude for saving his life.

After this series of comprehensive analysis, Hua Shilang immediately felt that this brother was a person worth making friends with, so he came up with the Xuantong Oil.

Of course, while Hanashiro was thinking about Gong Tianwu, the latter was also studying him, but his research method was much more advanced.

Because Gong Tianwu has a powerful weapon like the art of reading divine powers.

Especially when facing an opponent like Hanashiro who is weaker than him, the divine reading technique is used quite frequently.

After pondering for a while, Gong Tianwu secretly thought:
"This Hua Manlou must have deliberately made the next generation remain straightforward, because this way the dog demon clan can maintain the reckless and loyal image in the city lord's mind."

"Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. Once Hua Man Lou falls, the dog demon clan will be separated from the Mujiang City system."

"The dog demon clan is likely to be swallowed whole, skin and bones."

Then Gong Tianwu picked up the information brought by Hua Shilang and read it carefully, and found that the information inside was recorded in great detail.

To be more specific, even the breed, habits, and hobbies of the dogs patrolling the Yuan family's villa took up three thousand words.

It is obvious that the Yuan family should have long been a thorn in the eyes of the six demon generals, and they have been collecting information about them for a long time.

And for the local tyrants who have been entrenched here for hundreds of years to do this, it will undoubtedly be twice the result with half the effort, and the work will definitely be extremely detailed.

Hua Manlou predicted that he might need it, so he asked Hua Silang to bring it over.

In fact, Gong Tianwu also knew the situation clearly:

There is no doubt that Hua Manlou actually wants to use himself this time.

The first option he gave might be true, but it was more likely a test.

What Hua Manlou really wanted to see was letting himself, a human being, test the strength of the Yuan family. Of course, it would be even better if the Yuan family could be defeated.

And even if it fails, Hua Manlou will not suffer any losses, which is also very crucial.

Gong Tianwu expressed his understanding of this, saying that only children care about friendship, while the adult world is more about interests.

It's a good thing that you have value to be used by others. Think about it, if the Book of the Sword of Exorcism was taken away from the beginning, would Lin Pingzhi still be able to survive? Would he still have a chance to cheat on Linghu Chong?
***
The sun is shining,

It was a lazy afternoon.

After the afternoon sleepiness hit, many people/monsters chose to be dominated by instinct, falling into a deep sleep and snoring loudly.

Why don't they follow the rules? Because the supervisors are not here.

The two young masters in the villa have gone out hunting. It is said that a group of pig-dragon monsters have come to the lower reaches of Mujiang River, and their skins are very rare.

And even if the young master is still here, so what? This is Mujiang City, and they will just laugh and scold when they see him. Gong Tianwu stopped beside the wall of Yuan's courtyard at this time. He closed his eyes slightly and listened carefully to the movement inside:
Besides the birds singing, there is also the sweet snoring.

Then Gong Tianwu suddenly jumped up, easily climbed over the ten-foot-high wall, stretched out his hand and pressed lightly, then fell down silently.

It is worth mentioning that it was less than three hours since Hanashiro and Miya Tengo met.

In fact, Gong Tianwu also decided to take action on impulse because it was too rare for the Yuan brothers to be away from the villa at the same time.

Moreover, these two people are going hunting, which will undoubtedly take away a large number of capable men and greatly weaken Beppu's defense.

At this time, Gong Tianwu was wearing a gray robe, his facial skin was smeared with turmeric water, and his hair was dyed gray. Such a simple change of appearance would greatly increase the difficulty of the Yuan family's subsequent tracking.

Gong Tianwu looked up and saw that the demon guard who had jumped up and shouted to warn was now sleeping soundly. The wine gourd hanging beside him indicated that he must have been absent.

Of course, the gray-white tail on this guy's butt looked very annoying and also emitted a bad odor, which made Gong Tianwu try very hard to restrain the urge to kick him.

Then he swaggered along the corridor. The reason he dared to do so was that the grey robe on Gong Tianwu's body was the most commonly worn by servants in the villa because it was resistant to getting dirty.

"Walk forward to the rockery, turn right, and you will see a ginkgo tree in front of you."

The information provided in the intelligence quickly flashed through Gong Tianwu's mind, and then transformed into the scene he saw in front of him, allowing him to quickly approach the target area.

Suddenly, a voice came from the front:
"You! Stop!"

Gong Tianwu was also prepared and stopped immediately.

Although he seemed relaxed, he was actually ready for a fight.

After all, at this time he had already successfully approached the private prison, less than fifty meters away from the entrance.

In fact, Gong Tianwu even felt that his luck today was quite good, as he was able to arrive here without bloodshed.

Immediately afterwards, Gong Tianwu saw the room in front being opened, and then a huge figure came out.

This guy looked to be at least three meters tall, fat and strong, with fangs sticking out from his lips and all the exposed skin was covered with black hair. It even felt like the ground was shaking slightly when he walked.

Not only that, but it also exudes a strong stench that makes people frown.

To be honest, Gong Tianwu stared at him for two seconds and couldn't recognize his specific prototype.

Wild boar demon? Black bear demon?
This guy walked towards Gong Tianwu:
"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

Gong Tianwu looked at him coldly with sidelong glances without saying a word. He simply stretched out his hand to push him away and continued walking forward.

At the same time, be prepared to turn hostile and fight at any time.

Unexpectedly, this big guy actually backed down and cursed:
"Why are they all the same? Are the Second Master's people so great?"

Then he actually gave in and hid back in the side room.

Gong Tianwu had not expected such an unexpected turn of events, but being able to continue moving forward without bloodshed was the best.

After walking another fifty steps, the scene before him once again matched what was recorded in the intelligence:
"There is a huge willow tree on the left. It looks like a beautiful view, but it is a willow demon. Don't get close to it easily."

"There is a corridor to the left of the Willow Demon. Walk along the corridor for about thirty steps and you will reach the entrance to the dungeon."

"The dungeon entrance is usually guarded by two or three people, and the people here rarely desert."

At this time, Gong Tianwu saw the willow monster standing by the lake, but he did not think the scenery here was beautiful.

Because Gong Tianwu saw a large number of bones piled under the willow tree, the white bones were particularly creepy in the sunlight.

It seems that this guy doesn't care about food or drink, because among the bones there are those of wild animals, humans, and monsters.
Then Gong Tianwu continued to move forward and indeed saw the entrance to the dungeon. Then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Is this what you call rarely deserting?"

It turned out that there were indeed three guards at the dungeon entrance, but they were sitting in the sun, happily throwing dice and playing Pai Gow.

There were already quite a lot of silver treasures and copper coins piled up nearby.

They were so engrossed in the game that they didn't even notice Gong Tianwu coming a few steps in front of them.

It was not until Gong Tianwu walked towards the dungeon entrance that someone suddenly looked up and said in dissatisfaction:
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"

Gong Tianwu turned his head and glanced at him, then realized that he had already focused his attention on the Pai Gow in his hand, so he said:

"I was ordered to come and pick someone up."

The man who asked the question waved his hand casually after hearing this:
"Oh, go ahead."

Gong Tianwu thought to himself that this guy was really hard to deal with, but this way he could be less worried.

However, another demon guard next to him finally became alert and said:
"Whose orders are you following? Hey, why haven't I seen you before? When did you enter the mansion?"

Gong Tianwu sighed and said:
"Why the hell are you talking so much bullshit? Hurry up and stop interrupting my work! Otherwise, if I get fined, will you take the blame for me?"

This guy seemed to have a temper. He stood up and growled, baring his teeth:

"Hey, do you need grandpa to teach you some manners? You're so arrogant now that you're new here. If you keep doing this for a while, won't you start to shit on our heads?"

Seeing that there was no hope of getting away with it, Gong Tianwu didn't plan to waste any more words with him. He already felt extremely lucky to have come here safely.

So Gong Tianwu slapped him directly and cursed:
"Who do you think you are, you damned fool?"

The slap seemed to be slow, but in fact it was a fatal blow.

When the demon guard saw Gong Tianwu taking action directly, he bared his teeth and sneered.

What I was thinking in my mind was to block it with my left hand first, and then use my right claw to give this bastard a star-shaped blow.

It’s a pity that ideals are full and reality is very skinny!

The moment his arm blocked it, the demon guard felt an indescribable huge force coming, and he couldn't block it at all.

Then he was hit directly on the face by the palm, and his neck immediately broke with a snap, and his entire head tilted to the side at a twisted angle.

After succeeding with one palm strike, Gong Tianwu took the opportunity to kick the demon guard in front of him in the chest.

The guy didn't even come back to his senses at this point. Seven or eight bones in his chest broke with a "crack", and the chest collapsed.

After being kicked two or three meters away, a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth and he fainted.

Seeing two of his poker friends beside him die and become disabled in an instant, the remaining guy immediately panicked, and he still doesn't understand what happened.

However, it is not uncommon for some big monsters to be extremely cruel and have strange personalities, so this guy immediately knelt down decisively and begged for mercy in a crying voice:
"Grandpa, spare me! Huang San's mouth is too foul, so he deserves to be beaten by you. I have done nothing to offend him."

Gong Tianwu stared at him for two seconds, then said:

"May I have your name."

The demon guard immediately said in a trembling voice:
"Little Zhu Er."

Gong Tianwu snorted coldly:

"Zhu Er, take the key and go to the front. I need to take the person away."

"Yes Yes Yes!!"

The unfortunate demon guard immediately felt as if he had been pardoned. He nodded rapidly, and with trembling legs he led the way for Fang Linyan.

After entering the dungeon, Gong Tianwu said straightforwardly:
"Go to the innermost part where the serious criminals are held. Go ahead and hurry up!"

"Okay okay."

This unlucky demon guard was leading the way obediently in front.

In fact, it hasn't even thought about jailbreaking yet.

I just thought Gong Tianwu was a newly invited powerful guest with a particularly bad temper.

Under the leadership of Zhu Er, Gong Tianwu was surprised to find that there were quite a few people imprisoned in the dungeon here. At a glance, there were at least twenty or thirty people.

When they saw outsiders coming in, some cried loudly, some cursed angrily, some begged for mercy, and some remained silent.
Gong Tianwu followed him all the way and after they went more than 20 meters into the cell, his eyes suddenly lit up. Who else could be imprisoned in the cell next to him but his seventh sister?
It didn't look like he was in any kind of torture, he was just silently drawing circles on the ground.

Of course, at this time Gong Tianwu continued to remain calm: after all, he could afford to offend the Yuan family, and his seventh sister had a large family behind her.

So if you can muddy the waters of this matter, then do your best to muddy it up.

After silently memorizing the location of the seventh sister in his mind, Gong Tianwu continued to follow Zhu Er. After walking nearly a hundred meters, he turned directly into the last cell.

It can be seen that this cell is empty, and no movement can be seen in the other cells.
