Volume II: The Waterway Chapter 43 Cooperation
"Old woman, aren't you dead, is that screaming in time?" Sun Miao took Zhang Baihao's sword in his hand, and tossed the weight, it was a little heavy, not suitable for himself, so he threw it aside.
"Did you deliberately do it at that time?" Granny Gongsun was also a little surprised by the sudden scream, because the time was too coincidental, if it was one minute earlier, Zhang Baihao would still have a chance to dodge, and everything would no longer be useful if it was one minute later.
"Of course, I watched for a long time to find this opportunity. Who is she?
"No, it's thanks to your kid that she has had time to catch up with you for so long along the way, otherwise she might have to come to help the old body collect the body. "Granny Gongsun obviously recovered a lot of physical strength after taking the pill, and there was actually a trace of a wistful smile on her face.
"Do you praise or blame?"
Ye Ning hesitated whether to tell her about it, but in the end she didn't explain: "She is my friend, because I left in too much hurry, so I asked someone to find her, and I didn't expect her to really come, and it was so timely." ”
"Really, she's so strong, it's really rare to have such a spiritual sense at such a young age, and she should be the number one person in Qinghui City, right?" Although I didn't see this girl move head-on, judging from the full force of the assassin under the defense, and finally killing him, this girl's strength must not be underestimated.
What makes Sun Miao even more jealous is not the strength that this girl is showing now, but a feeling.
If you want to compare it, looking at this blonde girl, Sun Miao has a feeling of seeing the mad Buddha head-on, which is an indescribable sense of danger, that is, even if he stands at the same height as her, he will have the opportunity to be killed.
It's not a good feeling, there's a sense of fear of encountering the unknown, like a saint on the Holy Maiden.
"Do you like her? But she is not from Qinghui City, it is not easy to pursue her, it is enough to go from Qinghui to the imperial capital, and her eyes are very high, and she needs to be a real strong person." Ye Ning showed a gossipy smile.
"What are you talking about? A woman as terrifying as you is, it's too late to hide. Sun Miao glanced at her, he hadn't forgotten that she had a pill that made the four of them lie down inexplicably.
Ye Ning was angry when she heard this, and she was about to hit with a fist: "What did you say, where am I terrified?"
Sun Miao snorted, then avoided it and made a mess.
Four people slowly fell from the sky, and ...... Seven or eight wildebeests.
Yes, fall, for they all flew over.
These four people were Jiang Xiashan and the others, looking like a frightened wildebeest with weak legs, they fell to the ground and didn't dare to move for a long time.
The beautiful girl with blond hair still didn't say anything, bowed slightly to Ye Ning, checked the injury of Gongsun Mother-in-law, and seemed to glance at Sun Miao with some curiosity, there seemed to be a strong curiosity in her eyes, but she didn't say a word, turned her head and flew up, and quickly disappeared in front of everyone.
"She said, you are very dangerous, tell me to stay away from you, it seems that you have a bad impression of her. Ye Ning showed a happy smile, she didn't even notice that this smile gave people the feeling that others didn't like her favorite candy.
Sun Miao shook his head helplessly, it seemed that the blonde boy didn't speak, but didn't talk to him, and he was directly communicating with his spiritual sense: "She just left? This direction is not Qinghui City, right?"
"Of course, she wasn't from Qinghui City in the first place, and now she's just going home, she's amazing. ”
"It's a terrible woman to cross the dark forest on such a big night. After speaking, he stopped asking about the blonde girl, turned his head in front of Jiang Xiashan, and continued to grope on Zhang Baihao's body.
Two pill bottles, a key, and a bunch of strange things, Sun Miao was not interested, after putting away the pills, he handed them all over to Jiang Xiashan, and the money in them was also put into his arms, not much money, just a few silver coins, a mercenary captain brought such a little money, a little embarrassed: "You can deal with this sword, the armor is just a captain-level special armor for the military, and the empire has a record." You'll have to bury him, and it's not good if someone finds out. As he spoke, he handed the sword to Ye Ning.
Ye Ning nodded slightly, these things are a trouble, the armor and sword of the leader of the Silver Moon Mercenary Regiment, whoever falls into his hands means that he is killed by whom, but this is not a problem for Ye Ning, or it is not a problem for the Chiba Chamber of Commerce.
Then there was the assassin, Sun Miao's dagger was quite intrigued, and there was not a trace of reflection in the light of the torch. The dagger flew like a flower in his hand, and sure enough, compared to a straight knife, the dagger was still more suitable for him, and this dagger was much easier to use than the steel dagger that he grabbed casually, so Sun Miao immediately smiled.
In addition, there was almost nothing else on this assassin, a strange brand, and a needle, Sun Miao sniffed slightly, and found that this was a special sedative potion, which seemed to be produced by Machinery City, and it was definitely worth a lot, so he put it away.
After looking at this strange sign, Sun Miao handed it to Jiang Xiashan: "What is this? something from Qinghui City?" It was a bird-like sign with nine characters written in imperial characters on it.
"Is this a night owl?" I didn't expect Granny Gongsun to snatch the brand and take it in her hand and look at it carefully.
"Night stalkers. Hearing this name, Ye Ning and Jiang Xiashan were silent.
"What is it?" Sun Miao was a little puzzled, he really had never heard such a name.
"A killer organization, the topmost kind. Belong to the kind of people who can help you kill anyone as long as you pay. Jiang Lengsong motioned to the other two to set up tents, light torches, and dispose of corpses, while explaining to Sun Miao: "There are two of the most famous killer organizations in the empire, one is the Assassins Association, and the other is the Night Stalker. Do you get the idea? The Assassin Society is more popular, and can be found in the shadows of almost every city, while Night Stalkers, who are more mysterious, have always been known for their high price, extremely high missions, and most importantly, their ease of completing tasks. ”
"It's expensive and the task is extremely high, I can understand, what does it mean to complete the task casually?" This made Sun Miao feel a little inexplicable, generally speaking, shouldn't this kind of organization be extremely credible?
Jiang Lengsong continued to explain: "Let's put it this way, their mode of completing the task is very strange, sometimes a person is assassinated by the night stalker, if he doesn't die, but kills the night stalker, then he will sometimes have someone to continue to assassinate, and sometimes he won't, there is no law at all, in short, it is called random, and he doesn't care about the requirements of the employer or anything else, which is completely incomprehensible." After they kill someone, or when they are killed, they will have such a sign left. ”
"The person who died this time should be called Xiao Jiu, the ninth killer among the night owls. Granny Gongsun threw this sign to Sun Miao, her expression was a little solemn, and she thought that the night owl would be very troublesome.
Sun Miao felt the material of this brand, it was gold and non-gold, it was wood and not wood, the material was very strange, and he was a little vigilant against such a killer organization, there were at least nine such terrible killers, or even more. Sun Miaoxin said: It seems that you have to pay attention in the future, but don't secretly capsize the boat sometime.
After a pause, Sun Miao still asked the doubts in his heart: "Is it so strange that such a killer organization has not died?"
"On the whole, they have a high completion rate of tasks, and they will definitely send a strong man, although they sometimes fail, but only one or two out of a thousand missions fail, and the old body is almost planted in his hands. ”
"Stick gold on your face, you always plant it directly, it's not someone else, you're dead, I can see it in my eyes. Sun Miao glanced at the mother-in-law of Gongsun with a hard mouth.
"Boy, do you believe it or not, I'm going to let you know what it means to be dead?"
"I poked you in the sore spot, and you still want to kill people?" Sun Miao now knows that this old woman is a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted person, otherwise she would not deliberately save herself, of course, more importantly, her strength will not recover for a while and a half, as long as she is not forced to be in a hurry, it is estimated that it will take a long time to do it again.
"Don't quarrel with your mother-in-law. Ye Ning glared at Sun Miao angrily, but she had the feeling of teaching her younger brother a lesson.
"Anyway, will the Night Stalker still come to assassinate you?" Sun Miao asked a crucial question.
Grandma Gongsun smiled open-mindedly: "It shouldn't be, the old body is so old, how many years can he live?" And Ye Tiancheng is dead, and they have no money to assassinate the old body." ”
"My mother-in-law will live for a hundred years, and I will definitely not let my mother-in-law get hurt when I return to the city. Ye Ning waved his fist.
"Haha, don't worry, there are already two lying here who want to die now. Xiao Xiashan, what about you?" Granny Gongsun smiled with satisfaction and turned her head to look at Jiang Xiashan.
"I? this was originally my last mission in the Silver Moon Mercenary Regiment, and now that this kind of thing happens, I can only take one step at a time. Jiang Xiashan sighed helplessly, mentioning that the Silver Moon Mercenary Group had an indescribable emotion, after all, he had been in such a mercenary group for twenty years, from the age of seventeen to the present, how much he had paid, who could know, as a result, when he was going to be immediately, his most trusted head would kill him.
"I was originally going to leave Silver Moon to establish my own mercenary group and work with Leng Song's father's auction, but unfortunately the matter seems to have leaked in advance, and the head of the group is going to kill me, and almost involved other people, the current leader of the Silver Moon Mercenary Group is dead, and I have lost such a large team of elites, and it is estimated that the Silver Moon Mercenary Group will not be able to hold on. An extremely lonely feeling surfaced on his body, and at the same time, Jiang Lengsong and the bald Meng Zhen patted their chests at the same time and promised: "Captain (uncle) No matter where you go, we will follow you." ”
Qin Yuanlian, who was dressed in black, didn't speak sullenly, but Sun Miao glanced over, and Qin Yuanlian immediately stood up: "Me too." ”
"Thank you. Jiang Xiashan glanced at Meng Zhen, and then at Qin Yuanlian but didn't know what to say, after all, they were not at ease with this guy now.
To be honest, Sun Miao is still thinking about whether to kill this guy, because this guy is obviously a little unreliable, and the means he uses against him will not be too long, with his strength for a week at most, the soul power left in his body will naturally dissipate after a week, and it will naturally be impossible for Sun Miao to control him anymore at that time.
At this time, Ye Ning raised her eyebrows slightly: "Deputy Head Jiang, do you want to do this? Anyway, Regiment Leader Zhang is dead, and now there are only a few of us who know the situation, what if you take over the position of regiment leader directly after you go back?"
"Huh?" Jiang Xiashan was stunned for a moment, but immediately shook his head: "No, the Silver Moon Mercenary Group is the weakest of the three major mercenary groups, and now that the head of the group is dead, it will be useless for us to go back, and in the end we have to be divided up." ”
"It's okay, it's just that there is a lack of fifth-order masters, right? We, the Chiba Chamber of Commerce, have officially cooperated with you to provide you with a reliable team to help you. And your harvest in the dark forest and the waterway will be supplied to us in exchange for it, how about it?" Ye Ning looked at Jiang Xiashan carefully, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth made Sun Miao think of Gu Nanchun again.
"Miss Ye Ning is more than that, right? I should want to swallow the entire Silver Moon Mercenary Regiment, right?" Jiang Lengsong spoke, he was much stronger than his uncle in this regard.
"Hmm. Ye Ning nodded directly.
Frankly, Jiang Lengsong didn't know what to say for a while.
"Anyway, if you don't care, the Silver Moon Mercenary Group will be eaten, why don't you just hand it over to us? And our relationship will maintain an equal and cooperative relationship, and the Silver Moon Mercenary Group can still remain intact and will not be divided up by others, and there are a lot of things missing. At the same time, we can also cooperate with your brother to accept his auction as well, and he is fully responsible, how about it?" Ye Ning continued to look at Jiang Lengsong and said.
Jiang Lengsong sighed and looked at Jiang Xiashan: "Yes, uncle, even if someone from the Silver Moon Mercenary Group leaves, it must be stronger than us establishing the mercenary group ourselves, and it is also beneficial to us to have the support of the Chiba Chamber of Commerce." ”
"However, can the Chiba Chamber of Commerce support it now? Ye Tiancheng's action should have caused a lot of losses to the Chiba Chamber of Commerce, right? Moreover, I also know that the Chiba Chamber of Commerce is now in a big situation, and you need to go out in person if you don't let or collect medicinal herbs. Jiang Xiashan spoke, it was obvious that under normal circumstances, the Chiba Chamber of Commerce would not need to hire a mercenary group to help him complete things, and there was only one old woman with him.
"Well, there are a few small chambers of commerce that have joined forces to deal with us, but the real problem is that I was poisoned, but now I'm fine, so it doesn't matter. Ye Ning slightly tied her long hair behind her back, showing an incomparable confidence and calmness, Sun Miao felt that Ye Ning was very beautiful at this time, and there was an indescribable heroic posture.
Then Sun Miao turned his head when he saw Ye Ning, revealing an unusually lovely smile: "Little brother, you are responsible for helping us collect medicine, okay?"
"Not good. And if you want to call me Sun Miao, you can also call me Xiao Miao, what the hell is the little brother? The poison on your body is really cured?" Sun Miao immediately refused, he didn't have time to play these games.
"It's solved, it's just a boiling blood poison, I didn't feel it before, but it was solved when I could feel it yesterday, and it's the first time I know that fire poison and boiling blood can still be used like this. Xiao Second, you collect medicine, we are still fifty-five points, and I will personally help you refine it. Ye Ning smiled and spoke.
Sun Miao was silent for a moment, a little unable to refuse, if you want to improve yourself, only the pills and exercises can be solved, and Sun Miao himself can solve the exercises, but in terms of pills, Sun Miao himself is a half-ass, and he thought for a while and said: "If you can ensure that the level of the refined pills is guaranteed to be the best, then you can, otherwise forget it." ”
As soon as Sun Miao's words came out, not only Ye Ning, but even everyone else looked at him with an expression that you tease me.
The meaning of the best elixir is not the best in the elixir, but beyond the characteristics of the medicinal materials themselves, so that the alchemist surpasses his own extreme, so that the elixir absorbs the aura of heaven and earth to a level that transcends the boundary of the elixir itself and becomes a similar to the solid aura, and the best elixir is not so much a strong medicinal power as it is the carrier of the aura of heaven and earth.
They are simply the product of chance, and they are not at all controlled by human beings.
Ye Ning hesitated for a while, and finally shook his head: "No, I can guarantee that all you can give you is a high-grade pill, don't think about the best pill, even if I have been so many years, it's just a little bit, it's still ...... Never mind. "I wanted to say that I was robbed by you, but after taking a look at my mother-in-law, I still gave up.
Unexpectedly, hearing her say this, Sun Miao showed a bright smile: "Okay, when the time comes, I will make a formation talisman for your alchemy furnace to ensure that your success rate in refining the best pill will increase greatly." ”
"Is there such a way?" Ye Ning looked at Sun Miao with a surprised expression, this is really possible, this is a question that has plagued all alchemists for many years.
"Secret. Sun Miao smiled mysteriously, he really had a way to increase the success rate of the best elixir. Qianjizi once studied this matter with Sun Miao, and Sun Miao's can really guarantee this, but it is not convenient to say it now.
"Miss Ye, then let's cooperate sincerely. Jiang Xiashan looked at the two people who seemed to have talked and stretched out his hand, and shook Ye Ning slightly.
Then Jiang Xiashan bowed deeply to Sun Miao again: "Little Brother Sun, the grace of saving your life is unforgettable." In the future, Qinghui City will be useful to come to me. ”
"Hehe, Brother Sun, thank you so much, if it wasn't for you, we really killed that bastard, if there is anything in the future, just come to me, eat, drink and have fun, and go to the soup and fire. Jiang Lengsong also bowed deeply to Sun Miao, and Meng Zhen behind him also touched his bald head and bent down and bowed: "Well, I don't know what to say, but your life was saved by you, and I will be on call if I have any orders in the future." He patted his chest as he spoke.
Qin Yuanlian looked at the wind direction and reassured her.
"Come on, I'm not numb, I need a good night's rest, remember the vigil. Saying that, Sun Miao set up the formation outside his tent and hid inside.
I always feel like I've forgotten something.
