Chapter 761: It's too insidious
As he approached Crystal City, Zhang Chi also began to be a little nervous, he was mainly nervous about the climate, the last time he encountered a snow tide in this vicinity, the devastating scene still made him remember it vividly, Zhang Chi was a little puzzled, why would the once destroyed Crystal City be rebuilt in ten years, isn't the Black Moon Clan worried about the coming of the snow tide?
Zhang Chi specifically asked Lightning about this matter, and Lightning told Zhang Chi that the snow tide is not common, it has been in the Northern Wilderness for so long, and it has not been seen a few times, and it has not been seen once in recent years.
According to Huang Qitai's estimate, they will be able to arrive in Crystal City tomorrow, and the caravan will camp outside the city for the last time, and the caravan members are relieved one by one.
Cao Chengguang sneakily came to Zhang Chi's side and quietly reminded him not to forget to promise himself something, and after arriving in Crystal City, he would give him some gold coins and let him live happily for two days.
Zhang Chi had long known Cao Chengguang's urine, and took out his money bag and gave him half of the gold coins.
Cao Chengguang was also polite, took the gold coin and said, "How many days do you plan to stay in Crystal City?"
Zhang Chi said: "I don't plan for the time being, I don't know what the situation is in Crystal City." "Actually, he was going to escort the caravan to Crystal City and leave immediately, and he didn't even plan to enter the city.
Cao Chengguang said: "I heard that this crystal city used to be the political and economic center of the Chongmu clan, so it's a pity not to see it." ”
Zhang Chi said: "I'm afraid that you will be disappointed after you have been there." He had been to Crystal City ten years ago, and Crystal City was in ruins, and there were two snow waves in and around Crystal City in succession, and the thrilling scene is still fresh in his memory.
Cao Chengguang said with a smile: "After breaking and standing, maybe the current Crystal City is even better than it was back then." ”
Zhang Chicai didn't believe that a new city could be built in ten years, he looked up habitually, but he didn't see the figure of the three-headed vulture, and he was a little strange in his heart, could it be that Zong Jiupeng finally gave up tracking and chasing, just when he was confused, he saw a short and fat figure in the distance walking over, it was Zong Jiupeng, but Zong Jiupeng came alone, and he didn't bring the three-headed vulture with him, so it was estimated that it was also to avoid causing panic in the caravan.
Before Zong Jiupeng came closer, he was stopped by the two team members in charge of guarding, and Zong Jiupeng smiled: "I'm here to find Zhang Chi." ”
Zhang Chi asked people to let him go.
Zong Jiupeng walked over slowly, he still carried two wine bags in his hands, came to Zhang Chi and put down the wine bags and said, "This is my treasured good wine, try it." ”
Cao Chengguang looked up at Zong Jiupeng, Zong Jiupeng looked down at Cao Chengguang, and compared to Cao Chengguang, he seemed much taller.
Zhang Chi said to Cao Chengguang: "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Zong, who is known as the No. 1 bounty hunter in the Northern Wilderness. ”
Zong Jiupeng smiled and said: "I actually don't wash my hands anymore, and now I am rarely in the Northern Wilderness, and most of the time I am in the Cold Mountain Plateau. ”
Zhang Chi heard him mention the Lengshan Plateau, and his heart couldn't help but move, Zong Jiupeng's words didn't know how much authenticity there was, but this person rode a three-headed vulture across the Netherworld Ruins, the news must be very well-informed, and a lot of news could be found through him.
Zhang Chi introduced Cao Chengguang to Zong Jiupeng again: "This is Mr. Cao. ”
Zong Jiupeng said with a smile: "Mr. Cao is also from a foreign country. ”
Cao Chengguang said: "You are very curious. ”
Zong Jiupeng nodded and said, "It's always been like this." ”
Cao Chengguang picked up a bag of wine bags, unscrewed it and smelled it, the aroma of wine overflowed, he came to the Netherworld Ruins for a while, although he had also tasted a lot of wine, but most of them were difficult to swallow, it was estimated that it was because of the brewing process, not to mention the aroma of wine, this wine smelled good.
Zong Jiupeng said: "Brother Zhang, do you have barbecue to eat?"
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "Mr. Zong came with wine to find barbecue to eat." ”
Zong Jiupeng said: "Ten years ago, I ate the barbecue cooked by Brother Zhang, and I still remember it. ”
Zhang Chi said: "Okay, let's eat barbecue and drink wine." ”
The wine brought by Zong Jiupeng made Cao Chengguang full of praise, and he finally drank a delicious wine after coming to the Netherworld Ruins for so long, and he praised: "This kind of wine is worthy of a relaxed barbecue." ”
Zong Jiupeng said: "This wine is the work of the master brewer that I brought from the Arctic Ice City. ”
Cao Chengguang said: "Brewing master? Yes, this level is indeed worthy of the title of master." He took another big gulp.
Zong Jiupeng said: "Speaking of which, this master Brother Zhang still knows him. ”
Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned: "Who?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "Ji Chang, do you remember?"
Zhang Chi nodded.
Not only did Zhang Chi remember, but Cao Chengguang also remembered: "Ji Chang?" He looked at Zhang Chi in a daze, could it be that this brewing master was the Ji Chang he knew, the warden of Shenjing in the past?
Zong Jiupeng said: "Mr. Cao also knows Ji Chang?"
Cao Chengguang said: "I know, but I never knew he could make wine." ”
Zong Jiupeng said: "He is a capable man, and the Feng Clan's ability to block the attack of the Netherworld Army over the years is also inseparable from his advice. ”
Zhang Chi said, "Has he been fighting against the Netherworld Army all along?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "It's not just him, do you know why I gave up my past career, it is also because of the war on the Great Wall of Ice and Snow, the Feng clan alone can't resist the attack of the Netherworld Army, in recent years, many people in the Netherworld Ruins have taken the initiative to rush to the Great Wall of Ice and Snow and spontaneously join the defenders of the Great Wall to resist the invasion of the Netherworld Army, because everyone knows that if the Great Wall of Ice and Snow is breached, the end of the five major clans will come." ”
Zhang Chi said: "It's a pity that the Black Moon Clan doesn't know. ”
Zong Jiupeng said disdainfully: "The Black Moon Clan's rats are blind, they think that they can enjoy peace by establishing a defense line on the edge of the Cold Mountain Plateau, it is simply a dream, and they don't understand the truth of cold lips and teeth." ”
Zhang Chi picked up the wine bowl and said to Zong Jiupeng: "Mr. Zong takes the overall situation as the priority, and shows his skills in the place of danger, I will toast you." ”
Zong Jiupeng said: "I'm not as high-minded as you said, but I know that the Great Wall of Ice and Snow has broken, and I and my displaced clansmen will not be spared." ”
At this time, Huang Feixue boiled milk tea and sent it over, Zong Jiupeng's eyes forgot about her, Huang Feixue was jealous of Zong Jiupeng, and after pouring milk tea, she quickly hid beside Zhang Chi.
Zong Jiupeng said: "You're nineteen years old, right?"
Huang Feixue saw that he was still looking at him, so he knew that he was asking himself, but he didn't answer, and shrank behind Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi smiled: "Mr. Zong, it is rude to ask a girl's age. He asked Huang Feixue to go back to the tent first, and he knew in his heart that the reason why Zong Jiupeng came over today was for Huang Feixue.
Cao Chengguang burped and got up to rest.
Zong Jiupeng said, "You came here this time to help deal with the Netherworld Army, right?"
Zhang Chi said, "Why does Mr. Zong think like this?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "I heard Ji Chang talk about it, he said that you will come back, and he also said that there is no way to fight against the Netherworld Army with our strength alone, unless there is foreign aid, I think the foreign aid in his mouth is you." ”
Zhang Chi said, "Has Mr. Zong seen General Feifeng?"
As soon as Zong Jiupeng heard it, he knew that he wanted to inquire about General Feifeng's whereabouts through himself, so he took a sip of wine and said, "Have you seen the picture I gave you?"
Zhang Chi said: "What is drawn on the picture?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "The mark of our family. ”
Zhang Chi can now basically determine that Zong Jiupeng and Huang Feixue should be of the same clan, and nine times out of ten they are related. Unhurriedly, he said, "Since Mr. Zong has washed his hands and dried his hands, why did he send the three-headed vulture to arrest me?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "Someone entrusted me to arrest her, I didn't do it for money, I wanted to repay a favor, this person saved my life back then." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Why did you change your mind again?"
Zong Jiupeng said: "Because her eyes are very similar to my daughter." ”
Zhang Chi looked at Zong Jiupeng with some astonishment, Zong Jiupeng nodded and said, " Yes, if she has a tattoo on the pattern, it is my granddaughter, each of our hundred language families has its own unique tattoo, my daughter disappeared inexplicably, I have been looking for her all these years, and then I heard that she was sold into slavery, and when I found her, she was seriously ill shortly after giving birth, and her daughter was snatched away, and when I saw her, she no longer recognized me, and she couldn't even say who killed her, but at that time she was holding my hand, and I knew from her eyes that she was begging me to find her daughter. ”
Zhang Chi sighed secretly in his heart, he couldn't imagine that Zong Jiupeng would also have such a tragic experience.
Zong Jiupeng pursed his lips, looked at Zhang Chi and said, "Can you tell me if she has a tattoo like that?" His eyes were full of anticipation, hoping to get a positive answer from Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi yawned and said, "It's not early, Mr. Zong should go back and rest." ”
Zong Jiupeng was so angry with him that his nose was crooked, Made, Lao Tzu told you everything, and he didn't tell me the truth, this kid is really hateful, Zong Jiupeng can't wait to rush into the tent to find Huang Feixue and ask what happened.
Zhang Chi said: "Mr. Zong, when you arrive in Crystal City tomorrow, I will give you the answer." ”
Zong Jiupeng nodded hatefully and said: "Okay, I'll wait one more day, if you don't tell me the truth by then, I'll ......" He wanted to say something cruel, but the words came to his lips and swallowed back, he thought there would be no mistake, Huang Feixue's eyes are almost exactly the same as his daughter, and Huang Feixue also has the ability to control beasts, and he is clearly a descendant of the Baiyu clan, just wait, this kid is obviously deliberately entertaining himself, Feixue is his female slave, he has never seen anything.
After Zong Jiupeng left, Zhang Chi returned to the tent, Huang Feixue had already laid out the bedding, and when he saw him coming back, he went over to help him take off his boots, and whispered: "Childe, is that Zong Jiupeng gone?"
Zhang Chi smiled: "Gone, what's the matter? Are you afraid of him?"
Huang Feixue snorted, shook her head again, and said, "By Gongzi's side, I'm not afraid of anything." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Feixue, I have a request. ”
Huang Feixue said shyly: "If the son has any request, Feixue will agree." ”
Zhang Chi said: "I want to see your tattoo with my own eyes." ”
"Hmmm......"
Cao Chengguang got up early in the morning, saw that the caravan was packing up and preparing to go on the road, looked up at the sky, Zong Jiupeng was riding on the back of the three-headed vulture, hovering overhead, Zong Jiupeng said loudly: "Mr. Cao is early." ”
Cao Chengguang said: "It's still early for you, come out early in the morning to walk the birds." ”
Zong Jiupeng said with a smile: "You help me tell Zhang Chi that I will wait for him at the east gate of Crystal City." With that, he patted the neck of the three-headed vulture, and the three-headed vulture flapped its wings and flew into the air.
Cao Chengguang went to look for Zhang Chi, but didn't see Zhang Chi, only Huang Feixue who was packing up his things, and leaned up and asked, "Where is Zhang Chi?"
Huang Feixue's face was red, I don't know if she was cold or shy, and whispered: "Childe and Lightning went out, saying that they were going to explore the road and come back immediately." ”
Cao Chengguang said deliberately: "How did you sleep last night?"
Huang Feixue blushed even more, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look at him.
Cao Chengguang saw her demeanor and secretly thought in his heart, eight or nine times out of ten raw rice has been cooked, he has been in love for a long time, he sleeps together all day, and it is strange if nothing happens, he coughed and said, "Zhang Chi bullied you?"
Huang Feixue hurriedly shook her head: "Childe is good to me." ”
Cao Chengguang originally wanted to tease her a few more words, but when he saw Zhang Chi riding back on a lightning bolt, he stopped talking too much, saying that if Huang Feixue sued him and said that he was harassing, it would be embarrassing.
Zhang Chi said: "Lao Cao, what are you doing?"
Cao Chengguang said with a hippie smile: "I'm looking for you." "I told him what I had just met with Zong Jiupeng and asked him to pass the word.
Zhang Chi said: "Let him wait, let's set off as soon as possible, there will be wind and snow later, I hope it won't be too big." ”
Zhang Chi rode lightning to Huang Feixue's side, motioning for her to come up and ride with him, Huang Feixue sat down behind him, carefully grabbed his clothes with both hands, Zhang Chi grabbed her hand and let her hold her waist.
Huang Feixue was shy and surprised.
Zhang Chi said: "Feixue, when I get to Crystal City, I will separate from the caravan." ”
Huang Feixue was a little stunned and said, "What? isn't the son ready to enter the city?"
Zhang Chi said: "When I arrive in Crystal City, I have completed the things entrusted by my sister, and I will rush to the Cold Mountain Plateau as soon as possible to meet someone." ”
Huang Feixue whispered: "Where the son goes, Feixue will go." His arms involuntarily hugged Zhang Chi tightly.
Zhang Chi said: "I still have a lot of things to do, and it is impossible to take you with me all the time, and besides, you will have your own life." ”
Huang Feixue shook her head, hugged Zhang Chi tightly and said, "No, I'm not going anywhere, I'm right next to Childe, I'm Childe's slave girl." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Feixue, I told you a long time ago that you are not a slave girl with me, and you are not my private property, you are free." ”
Feixue sobbed: "Is it Feixue who has done something wrong, Childe can beat me and scold me, you can punish me however you want, but you can't abandon Feixue." ”
Zhang Chi said: "I mean ......"
Lightning sighed and said, "Master, it's boring, people are bent on following you, why do you want to hurt people's hearts, don't you think you're too cruel?"
Zhang Chi scolded in his heart: "You know a fart." ”
Lightning said: "If you want to capture it, you want to capture it." I want her to stay by your side with all her heart, not asking for fame or return, master, master, you are too insidious. ”
