Chapter 23 Blockade the whole city
Sun Li saw his son lying on the ground, his face was pale, his seven orifices were bleeding, and his breath was like a thread, as if he would die in the next second, the anger towards Gu Chen in his heart could no longer be controlled.

He was furious, glared at Gu Chen, and shouted: "Little bastard, you are looking for death!"

At this moment, Sun Li's beard and hair were all unfurled, like an angry old lion, he rushed towards Gu Chen fiercely, and slapped Gu Chen's head with his palm, intending to beat him to death right here.

"Uncle Sun, no!"

"Patriarch Sun, stop!"

Seeing this, the other patriarchs were also shocked. Although Gu Chen shot Sun Changzhi severely, but Gu Chen came from Tiandu Jingtiansi after all, and his identity was different from them. If Gu Chen was really beheaded by Sun Li today Here, once Jing Tiansi inquired about the crime, the group of them would also walk around together.

Gu Chen looked calm, standing on the spot, neither dodging nor dodging. He looked at Sun Li's aura and knew that the other party was also a martial artist of the Meridian Realm, but people will age, and warriors are no exception. Old and frail, qi and blood decay, basically [-]% of the body's strength is at most only [-]% or [-]% left.

Not to mention that now that Gu Chen has reached the state of unblocking the meridians, and he has also opened up sixteen meridians in his body, even before the breakthrough, this Sun Li would not be Gu Chen's opponent.

"Die to the old man!"

Sun Li shouted angrily, his whole body was full of breath, and he slapped Gu Chen on the head.

At this time, Gu Chen, who was standing there, suddenly frowned, his figure flashed, and he disappeared immediately, and Sun Li directly struck out with his palm.

"Want to run?!"

Suddenly, Gu Chen's cold shout came from the county office, and not far away, Sun Changzhi, who was lying there unconscious, suddenly had bursts of sinister black energy gushing out of his body, and Gu Chen's body flashed. When he came close, the fiery inner breath was circulating in his body, and he directly slapped the black gas that condensed into a mass in mid-air.

"Ow—"

In the air, there was a shrill scream, and the black air in the air spontaneously ignited without fire, and soon burned up completely, and completely dissipated in the air.

"This is... a ghost?!"

After seeing the black energy gushing out of Sun Changzhi's body, everyone in the field changed their expressions and recognized the source of it. At the same time, they quickly stepped back and distanced themselves from Sun Li with vigilance.

Sun Li was also stunned, not knowing why his son had an affair with a demon, he stood there blankly.

Gu Chen put away the soul crystal, without looking at Sun Changzhi who was lying on the ground, he turned around, looked at the crowd calmly, and said, "Now, do you believe my words?"

"This……"

The several Patriarchs looked at each other. They never thought that Sun Changzhi was actually possessed by a ghost, and after spending so long with them, they never found out.

If it wasn't for Gu Chen to see through today, the future result would be terrible just thinking about it, and he wouldn't know how to die even if he was afraid of death.

"Master Gu, I have offended you a lot earlier, please forgive me." Several patriarchs including the Zhao family clasped their fists and saluted Gu Chen. Now, they no longer have any doubts about Gu Chen's words.

Live examples are here, what else can I say?

What's more, they had seen Gu Chen's tough attitude before, and now that the matter was clarified, they were immediately convinced of Gu Chen, and they never dared to have any objections.

"Master Gu, Patriarch Sun... oh no, it's Sun Li, could it be him too?" Everyone looked at Sun Li with undisguised vigilance on their faces.

Now, as long as Gu Chen said a word, they would definitely attack Sun Li directly and take him down immediately without showing any mercy.

"I……"

Sun Li looked anxious. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to speak. After all, even his son had been polluted, so he should be suspected.

Gu Chen glanced at Sun Li, shook his head, and said, "Patriarchs, don't worry, Patriarch Sun is normal."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they were no longer as wary of Sun Li as before, but they didn't approach Sun Li either, keeping a certain distance.

Seeing this, Sun Li opened his mouth. After a while, he sighed, bowed to Gu Chen, gave a deep bow, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your enlightenment."

Gu Chen didn't speak, he was just telling the truth, if Sun Li also had problems, he would have directly taken down both father and son just now.

Afterwards, Gu Chen walked past Sun Li, and went straight to the seat above him and sat down.

"Wu Qian, deal with it." Gu Chen told Wu Qian.

"As ordered."

Wu Gan cupped his fists and was about to drag Sun Changzhi's body down.

"and many more!"

Seeing everyone's gazes, Sun Li hurriedly said: "Master Gu, Changzhi... Changzhi is my son after all, can you let me take his body back?"

At this moment, Sun Li's complexion was ashen, and in just a short moment, his energy and spirit had declined a lot. There was still a bit of pleading in his eyes when he looked at Gu Chen, and he no longer had the previous arrogant look.

"Yes." Gu Chen nodded.

Seeing Gu Chen's permission, Sun Li saluted Gu Chen again.

"Patriarchs, since you have no objection to what I said before, we will start to search the whole city tomorrow. The county government is currently short of manpower, and I hope you will cooperate with me tomorrow." Gu Chen looked around at the crowd and said slowly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Gu, I will fully cooperate when I wait for tomorrow."

All the Patriarchs nodded one after another. Now that it has been confirmed that there are ghosts lurking in Ningcheng, they are obviously more anxious than Gu Chen to find them out.

After all, no one knows if there is another situation like Sun Changzhi in Ningcheng.

No one can guarantee whether the person closest to him or her is possessed by a ghost. If the same situation as Sun Changzhi is true, it will be too terrifying, and he might lose his life suddenly one day.

"In that case, then the Patriarchs should go back to rest first, and we will start to search the whole city tomorrow morning."

"Yes."

Everyone nodded and was about to retreat, but at this moment, Gu Chen suddenly said, "Mr. Zhou, please stay."

Zhou Rang, who was just about to get up, heard the words, and sat there again. No matter how chaotic the previous scene was, he always looked like an old god, very calm, and his psychological quality was indeed much better than the rest.

After everyone left, Gu Chen came to Zhou Rang, cupped his hands and said, "There is one thing, I hope Mr. Zhou can help."

Zhou Rang smiled slightly, and said: "Master Gu's words are a bit serious. You are now worried about the safety of our Ningcheng. As a member of Ningcheng, the old man will naturally do his best to meet what Master Gu needs."

Gu Chen nodded, and he didn't procrastinate, and said directly: "The younger generation wants to ask Mr. Zhou to temporarily act as the magistrate of Ningcheng. Now that Fang Yong has died, the dragons in Ningcheng have no leader. Tomorrow, the whole city will be searched. I'm afraid that many people in Ningcheng will Feeling flustered, the situation may get out of control, and you are the most famous person in Ningcheng, it must be most appropriate for you to be the county magistrate to appease the people."

Zhou Rang nodded, feeling that although Gu Chen was young, he was indeed very thoughtful in considering things. He said, "Thanks to Mr. Gu's attention, the old man didn't give in, so he accepted Mr. Gu's commission."

When Gu Chen heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "If so, thank you Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Rang gently stroked the white beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "It's okay, this is what it should be, but Mr. Gu, he is really a hero. He is so young, but he is so thoughtful in handling things and considers everything. I haven't seen him for a long time. An outstanding young man like Mr. Gu."

Gu Chen smiled, and said, "Old Mr. Zhou is overrated."

"Oh, by the way, I have a suggestion about searching the city tomorrow." Zhou Rang said suddenly.

"Mr. Zhou, please tell me." Gu Chen gestured to Zhou Rang, but said it was okay.

Zhou Rang nodded slightly, and said: "It's like this, since demons possess ordinary people, then naturally the seven major families in Ningcheng, including my Zhou family, are all suspects. If the polluters know the news, they will probably take risks or run away overnight, so my suggestion is that the city should be closed immediately and precautions should be taken to prevent this from happening."

Gu Chen nodded directly when he heard the words, and said: "Mr. Zhou is right, but I have neglected this point, Wu Qian!"

Afterwards, Gu Chen called Wu Gan and ordered Wu Qian to notify the city guards to immediately block the gate of Ningcheng and prohibit anyone from passing through.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Chen and Zhou Rang discussed the details about searching the city tomorrow, and soon, one night passed.
