Volume 1 Small Town Turmoil Chapter 64 Departure
On the second day, Li Luowu, who had prepared everything, set off from Luoshen Town alone and headed towards the hotel on the edge of Tianmeng Town. Before leaving, Li Luowu deliberately said hello first, so that the shopkeeper Qing could get ready, so that he could set off immediately after he arrived, so as to save time for him to find the golden toad poison pool in the border mountain range.
After all, he didn't know how long it would take to find the Golden Toad Poison Pool, nor did he know what dangers the Border Mountains had. Having enough time to prepare is always the best.
Gradually approaching the hotel, Li Luowu saw several carriages in front of the hotel, and the goods loaded on the carriages were about two meters high. There were also a few carriages that were empty, and seemed to have been specially prepared for them as escorts.
There were about five or six people standing around the carriage, and one of them was the shopkeeper Naqing. When Li Luowu saw the green shopkeeper, the green shopkeeper also noticed him, and saw the green shopkeeper with a smile on his face towards Li Luowu:
"Little brother, you're finally here. The green shopkeeper took Li Luowu's hand and behaved very intimately. And several people behind the shopkeeper also cast scrutinizing glances at Li Luowu.
"Huh. Li Luowu smiled politely at the shopkeeper Qing, and at the same time, he also noticed the gazes of the people behind the shopkeeper.
Li Luowu frowned slightly, not because of the scrutiny of those people, but because there was a trace of unkindness in that scrutiny.
"Come on, little brother, I'll introduce you first. The shopkeeper brought Li Luowu to everyone and said slowly:
"These are all the people who served as guards with you this time, and they are all among the best masters in each town and village, and each of them is above the thirteenth level. β
The green shopkeeper said with a smile, and just as he was about to introduce them one by one, the sturdy man in tiger skin standing at the front of the five people was the first to speak:
"Boy, remember Lao Tzu's name, Lao Tzu's name is Lin Hu!"
The provocative words came from Lin Hu's mouth, and there was obvious disdain on his face, so Lin Hu took a step forward and looked at Li Luowu with playful eyes, and the three people behind him also glanced up and down at Li Luowu with the same eyes.
"I heard that your kid is paid much more than a few of us?" Lin Hu looked at Li Luowu's body, which was much thinner than them, and smiled sarcastically.
"You don't seem to be a junior fighter either, do you? Why can you get a higher price than us? Is it because you want to use your little white face as a faΓ§ade?"
"Or did you trick this dazed old man into doing some tricks?"
"Okay, Lin Hu, don't say it, then you have to be guarded by your colleagues, and you will be kind and tolerant to each other. β
"As for why I pay my little brother more, it's naturally because his strength is worthy of this reward!"
Seeing Lin Hu provoking Li Luowu so much, Shopkeeper Qing's face was suddenly full of displeasure, and said, in addition to worrying that there would be an accident when the escort mission went on like this, he was also worried that Lin Hu would anger the master he had finally invited who was almost comparable to a junior fighter.
"Brother Wuwu, you don't want to be like them. β
The shopkeeper pulled Li Luowu aside and said with a revealing face, but Lin Hu followed them closely, and the provocation and eagerness on his face became more obvious:
"Since Old Man Qing has said that your strength is worthy of payment, how can I do it if I don't understand it?" Lin Hu said loudly to the three people behind him who also stepped forward, and the three people behind him also responded. Only the man in black at the back was expressionless, indifferently watching everything that was about to happen.
"Alas..."Li Luowu sighed, his face was full of helplessness, he didn't understand why there was always such a person who peeped at the leopard.
"Green shopkeeper. Li Luowu turned his head to the green shopkeeper on the side and said helplessly:
"Why did you choose these people as your caravan guards? If you had said it earlier yesterday, you would have been able to find a few people with the same strength as them, but with much better brains than them. β
Li Luowu said lightly, although his language was plain, the sarcasm in his words was very piercing.
"With all due respect, I'm afraid that stupid and arrogant people like them will not have the slightest effect on this escort. β
"In the end, it is estimated that it will only waste your tens of thousands of gold coins. β
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
Li Luowu's mocking words made Na Lin Hu furious, he suddenly pulled out a long knife from the space bag and raised it high, and his mouth continued to spew out words full of anger:
"Tell you, don't say that you are level thirteen, even if you are level fourteen or even the peak, Lao Tzu doesn't take it seriously! Lao Tzu is a person who has fought with junior fighters! It's not like you, a hairy boy, can compare!"
"Today, Lao Tzu will educate you well, this milky little hair, and let you know what the world is called sinister. β
With that, the long knife glowing with cold light suddenly fell, and at the same time, Li Luowu's hands began to burst into bursts of blue light.
"Lin Han!"
Just when Li Luo was not ready to make a move, the green shopkeeper on the side suddenly shouted loudly, and the next moment, the black-clothed man who was far away from the carriage suddenly disappeared, and at the same time, a strong hand tightly grasped the wrist of the knife holding the knife, so that the Lin Hu could not move.
"Have you fought a junior fighter?"
Lin Leng in black said, and Li Luowu saw this scene and slowly put away the magic power in his hand.
"Everyone. The green shopkeeper said slowly:
"The old man invited you here to escort the caravan, and I hope that this matter will not be delayed because of some unnecessary trivial matters. β
"This escort mission, as long as you work together, you can easily complete it, don't you want to complete the task smoothly and get the gold coins?"
"Also," the green shopkeeper looked at Lin Hu and motioned for Lin Han to let go of him, Lin Hu, who had broken free from his hand, rubbed his wrist, and looked at Lin Han's eyes full of jealousy.
And the green shopkeeper continued:
"I can tell you very clearly that the strength of this little brother is almost comparable to that of a junior fighter, so I will give him a higher salary. β
"What, a junior warrior, just him?"
Lin Hu's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of suspicion when he looked at Li Luowu, but he did have an extra layer of concern in his heart.
"Believe it or not, I don't want today's events to happen a second time. β
"If it happens again, I'm afraid it will affect the reputation of several of you in the recruitment industry. β
Shopkeeper Qing looked at Lin Hu and his party indifferently, and his words were full of threats that only Lin Hu could hear.
Lin Hu snorted coldly when he heard this, and without giving Li Luo a cold look, he led the people behind him to turn around and leave, and got into one of the empty carriages.
"Alas..."The green shopkeeper sighed and shook his head, if he couldn't find a suitable person, who would ask such a narrow-minded scoundrel to act as a guard.
There are too few people who are willing to act as guards when they reach level thirteen or fourteen, and even if they do, they still hold their own identities, deliberately raise prices, and make things difficult.
"I'm really sorry to let my little brother encounter such a thing just now. The shopkeeper bent down slightly to apologize to Li Luowu, who hurriedly stopped him:
"The green shopkeeper doesn't have to be like this, it's not your fault. Li Luo said with a smile:
"But what I just said is not nonsense, if the green shopkeeper has a heart, I can indeed find a few strong people for you, but it will take some time. β
"Hehehe, forget it. Shopkeeper Qing smiled and said, "If it was earlier, it would have been fine, but now that the time limit of the Chamber of Commerce is coming, I am afraid that it will delay the big event." β
"These people are scoundrels, but for the sake of money, they are still willing to do what they are told. β
Hearing this, Li Luo nodded and said no more. For Lin Hu's group, as long as they don't hinder him from completing the escort mission and getting the map of the Golden Toad Poison Pool, it doesn't matter if he works with them.
"Let's go, little brother. Shopkeeper Qing said with a smile, and then led Li Luowu and Lin Han into another carriage. Then he sent instructions to the drivers of the various carriages, and the convoy slowly started.
Time passed slowly, and the sun came from the middle of the sky to the horizon. The carriage passed through the smooth road, passing through various villages, and finally left the realm of Heavenly Dream Town, and the direction in which the carriage was heading, a small hill, appeared in front of everyone.
At this time, Li Luowu didn't pay attention to the road conditions in front of him, he sat with his eyes closed, but his soul had already come to the inner realm.
There is still a floating island in the middle of the air in the large blue space of Nano, and above the floating island, the black book that looks like a giant gate still stands. And Li Luowu stood in front of the huge book, silent.
He didn't know how many times he had been here. Not for this huge book, but for the owner of the mysterious male voice, the mysterious man who saved his life.
"Friend, are you there?"
Li Qiwu's voice resounded throughout the entire inner realm, but there was still no response.
"Ahh Li Luowu sighed, he thought that this mysterious man suddenly appeared frequently, and he was planning to communicate with him further, but he didn't expect it to be so casual.
The call was fruitless, and Li Luowu, who was in reality, opened his eyes, took out the purple phoenix gun from the space bag, and fell into deep thought. Yesterday's green flame, no matter how Li Luowu input the magic power, could not be summoned, and he wanted to call out the mysterious man this time for this matter.
After all, he also hoped that this Purple Phoenix Spear could really possess the Netherworld Purple Phoenix's natal beast fire, so that it would be comparable to a two-star medium weapon, and in this way, his own strength would also increase greatly.
"Oh, this is the purple phoenix gun auctioned by Brother Wuwu, it is worthy of being a two-star medium weapon, and the aura emanating from it is not ordinary. Sitting on the side, the shopkeeper Qing saw Li Luowu take out the purple phoenix gun and said, while Lin Han, who was sitting on the other side and had been closing his eyes to recuperate, heard the words of the shopkeeper Qing, and opened his eyes slightly and glanced at the purple phoenix gun.
"The green shopkeeper said too much. Li Luowu smiled, "This purple phoenix gun can't reach the strength of a two-star medium, but the auction house said that this is a failure, and the demon core is not fully integrated into the body of the gun." β
"Hahahaha. The green shopkeeper stroked his beard, "Even so, the little brother is sure to make a profit." Not to mention that the material quality of this purple phoenix gun has reached the two-star medium, and the demon core that has not been fully integrated can be sold well if it is properly separated.... Huh?"
Shopkeeper Qing said, but suddenly made a strange sound, Li Luowu was also attracted by this voice, and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"On top of this purple phoenix gun... Why don't you have a demon core?"
"I'm afraid the green shopkeeper is wrong. Li was stunned and said with a smile.
"I'm afraid it's getting dark, and this demon core is also darker, so the green shopkeeper doesn't see that there is no demon core, right?"
Li Qian didn't say anything, his hand touched the tip of the gun, but the next moment, the expression on his face froze.
The place where the demon core was originally embedded was empty at this time, and the demon core of the Netherworld Purple Wind was gone!
