Volume II: The Journey Beyond the Stars Chapter 145 Expeditionary Troops

"Delegate a task?"

Qin Feng was in a fog, he didn't know what Ye Zhiqiu was talking about, so he could only look at the report first.

After reading the report, Qin Feng knew that there had been a rebellion in the newly opened heaven and earth under the name of the Ye family, which led to the cessation of a rare mineral, and the Ye family asked Ye Zhiqiu to immediately organize an expedition and deal with this matter three days later.

Especially in the reward column, Qin Feng saw that each member of the expedition team would receive a spirit crystal and a Xuan-rank third-grade spirit soldier or spirit weapon, and their exploits in Xintiandi would be converted into additional rewards according to the market price.

"With such a rich reward, I'm afraid things are not simple, right?" Although Qin Feng had never participated in this kind of expedition, he also understood that it was impossible for the reward to be so high, unless it was some particularly dangerous mission.

After all, one spirit crystal was equivalent to one million imperial silver coins, even if it was Qin Feng now, this was by no means a small amount, not to mention that there were additional rewards.

"Qin Feng, my brother is involved in this matter this time, but it's all because of you!"

I saw the girl who came with Ye Zhiqiu jumped up, pointed at Qin Feng, and shouted angrily.

"Little sister, don't be rude. What I do is my own will, and it has nothing to do with Qin Feng. The girl Ye Zhiqiu drank was his cousin Ye Xiaomei.

Ye Xiaomei saw that Ye Zhiqiu was really angry, so she had to sit back angrily, but she looked at Qin Feng's eyes, very unfriendly, as if she was carrying a knife.

In the Ye family, Ye Xiaomei and Ye Zhiqiu have the best relationship, and they also listen to Ye Zhiqiu's words the most.

"Ye Zhiqiu, what's going on?"

Hearing Ye Xiaomei's words, Qin Feng knew that this matter must not be simple.

"Actually, it's because of the blood of the Earth Ryu Spirit Turtle that I once gave you. That blood was originally a gift from the family to the Imperial Family, but in order to save you, I could only secretly rob the transportation team. It's just that I was unlucky, and I was eventually found out. Although the family has solved this matter through other means, the related losses are all counted on my head. ”

Although Ye Zhiqiu's tone was very flat, his appeal was not weak, "Qin Feng, you also know that my own identity is very sensitive, and with the handle of the blood of the Earth Ryu Spirit Turtle, it makes my brothers even more unscrupulous. Therefore, this mission is likely to be a conspiracy. ”

Hearing Ye Zhiqiu say so much, Qin Feng rubbed the bridge of his nose and asked directly, "Say it." How do you want me to help you?"

"Hahaha, Qin Feng, you still know me. ”

Ye Zhiqiu laughed out loud and continued, "However, I have indeed had a difficult time in the past few years, many properties have been mortgaged, and now I don't have so much money in my hands to call an expedition. So, can you lend me some money?"

"How much does it cost in total?" Qin Feng asked directly.

For Qin Feng, Ye Zhiqiu is not only his partner, but also a friend who can be trusted with life and death.

"Twenty million silver coins. ”

Since Qin Feng was so direct, Ye Zhiqiu no longer went around in circles.

"How many people are you going to gather?" Qin Feng asked again.

Ye Zhiqiu no longer hidden, and said directly, "The destination is in the Red Lotus Cave Heaven, and the speed of time flow is one and a half times that of this world, and you need to enter through the reinforced spatial teleportation array. I'm going to gather an expedition of about ten people, and the teleportation cost for each person is one spirit crystal. ”

Sure enough, as Qin Feng thought, the cost of teleporting to the new world would not be low, but Qin Feng didn't expect that the cost of teleportation would be one spirit crystal per person.

The high cost of teleportation determines that the teleportation expedition must have a limited number of elite personnel, which is the bottleneck of the New World Conquest.

Of course, in a new world like the Phantom Cave, the cost of teleportation is very low, and even if a large-scale war is launched, the cost will not be very high.

However, the Phantom Spirit Cave Heaven, a new world that is very close to the Xuanling Continent and has a short teleportation distance, has already been snatched and divided by various forces and major families in the hundreds of years of New World Exploration Wars.

The new worlds that have been discovered now are all like the Red Lotus Cave Heaven, which are far away from the Xuanling Continent and can only be reached through the reinforced spatial teleportation array.

After thinking for a while, Qin Feng said, "I understand. Well, give me a little time to raise money. Also, the expedition team counts me as one. ”

"Qin Feng, it's enough for you to help me raise so many silver coins. This mission, even for me, was taken with the consciousness of nine deaths and one life. You don't have to go along. ”

Although Ye Zhiqiu was punished by the family because of Qin Feng's affairs and needed to carry out a mission to repay the family's losses, he had already regarded Qin Feng as a friend in his heart and did not want Qin Feng to take risks with him.

"If it's a friend, don't talk so much nonsense. By the way, I also asked Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu if they were willing to carry out this mission together. After Qin Feng finished speaking, he ordered the waiters to set off immediately and go to Luo Zhan's war zone to find Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu.

In addition to reciprocating Ye Zhiqiu's friendship, Qin Feng also wanted to go to the Red Lotus Cave Heaven to see if he could find the opportunity to break the mirror.

"Qin Feng, it's righteous enough! From now on, you will be my Brother Qin. Ye Xiaomei clasped her fists at Qin Feng and shouted.

With a soft sound of "pop", Ye Zhiqiu knocked on Ye Xiaomei's head and asked her to stop, "Qin Feng, whether you go to the Red Lotus Cave Heaven with you or not, I will treat you as a brother the same." And also...... Thank you so much this time. ”

Qin Feng knew that Ye Zhiqiu must still have a lot of preparations to do, so he said, "You should be busy with other things first." I'll let you know when the coins are all there. ”

After Ye Zhiqiu left, Qin Feng immediately called Fu Bo and talked about how he could raise 20 million silver coins in three days.

Although the Qin Mansion has become the largest mansion in Cloud Sky City, the liquidity in his hand is only more than three million silver coins, and the rest of the funds have been invested in projects and commercial development, so it is not easy to raise such a number of silver coins for a while.

After Qin Feng and Fu Bo discussed, they could only close down, postpone some projects and commercial development, or pledge some assets in exchange for cash.

Either way, losses are inevitable.

Now, what Qin Feng and Fu Bo need to consider is to minimize the related losses and try to avoid long-term reputational damage.

After confirming with Qin Feng again, Fu Bo walked out of the study and hurriedly went to gather people to deal with it.

In fact, for the newly rising Qin Mansion, this time can be regarded as a broken bone, even if it is optimistic, it will take at least a year to recover after that.

However, Qin Feng knew very well in his heart that with Ye Zhiqiu's personality, coming to him for help showed that he was indeed facing huge trouble.

Qin Feng understood that the battles within the family were sometimes even more brutal than the battles between different families and countries.

For the next three days, the Qin Mansion was in a state of non-stop busyness, with occasional people coming to the door to discuss things, some angry because of the cancellation or postponement of the project, and some happy because of the compensation and other cooperation that Qin Feng had promised.

At noon on the third day, Qin Feng finally raised 20 million silver coins, of which 3 million were borrowed from Tang Jiexi through Lin Xiyan.

At the same time, Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu also returned from Luo Zhan's war zone.

Now, the cultivation realm of the two of them is not only in the Spirit King realm, but also in the army, they are already squad leaders.

If it hadn't taken a day to hand over military affairs, the two would have rushed back a day earlier.

Seeing Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu, Qin Feng immediately set up a banquet in the Qin Mansion to catch the wind for the two.

Especially Lu Changfeng, because he got the blood of the unicorn in the Xuanjing world, after the awakening of the bloodline talent, his strength has increased greatly, and now he even has a resounding name "Qilin Gongzi".

However, Lu Changfeng is not interested in these titles, but he still likes to drink and brag with friends and talk about the Spring and Autumn Land as before.

Wu Lingyu also has a lot of adventures, not only spiritual cultivation and body refining at the same time, but also got Luo Zhan's secret technique "Iron Mountain Thirteen Styles", with the five mansions and five libraries of the martial family, there is the power of tigers and leopards.

Qin Feng and the two hadn't seen each other for three years, so they naturally chatted non-stop while drinking wine and eating meat at the family banquet.

It's just that in the past few years, Qin Feng has either practiced with Su Lao or practiced with Lin Xiyan, but Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu's military careers have become more colorful, which also makes Qin Feng yearn for it.

When the family banquet dispersed, Qin Feng asked Lu Changfeng and Wu Lingyu to go to Ye Zhiqiu first, and after he explained the relevant matters of the Qin Mansion to Fu Bo, he went to say goodbye to his master Lin Xiyan.

In the private house, Qin Feng said to Lin Xiyan, "Master, in order to help Ye Zhiqiu, I must go to the Red Lotus Cave Heaven this time." I estimate that it will take about a month or two to quell the rebellion over there. This time...... Take care. If you have anything you need in life, you can go directly to the Qin Mansion to find Fu Bo, I have already explained it. ”

Although during the period when Lin Xiyan taught Qin Feng's swordsmanship, he had very strict requirements for Qin Feng, and the little old man was often very serious and did not smile, which made Qin Feng feel very depressed.

However, when he was about to leave suddenly, Qin Feng felt a little reluctant in his heart.

"Qin Feng, you don't have to worry about me, I'll take care of myself. It's you, this is the first time to fight in other heaven and earth, although the level of heaven and earth in the Red Lotus Cave Heaven is lower than that of the Xuanling Continent, which limits the upper limit of the realm of the monks in the cave heaven, but you must remember that you must not be careless. In addition, I have a hunch that your chance to break the mirror is likely to be in this trip. ”

Lin Xiyan flipped his palm, and a three-foot long sword appeared, handed it to Qin Feng, and said, "Take this sword with you and complete this trial." ”

"Isn't this sword the master's saber? I already have a sword, and I can't ask for your sword. Qin Feng naturally knew the three-foot sword in Lin Xiyan's hand, and refused to take it.

"Actually, this sword was inherited from my master, that is, your master Murong Baichuan, and it was called 'Wei Ming'. According to the rules set by your master back then, it will be passed on to you now. ”

Lin Xiyan told the name and origin of this sword at this time, and seeing that Qin Feng still refused to take the sword, he said sharply, "Qin Feng obeys orders, from this moment on, the micro life is your sword, you are not allowed to insult the reputation of this sword in the future, let alone the reputation of Baichuan Academy." ”

Seeing that Lin Xiyan was really angry, Qin Feng didn't dare to insist anymore, so he had to take the sword and reply, "Disciple takes orders." If there is any insult to the master in the future, let the master take back the sword. ”

After Qin Feng said goodbye to Lin Xiyan, the time agreed with Ye Zhiqiu was almost up, so he immediately rushed to Ye Mansion.

When Qin Feng came to Ye Mansion, in addition to Ye Zhiqiu, Ye Xiaomei, Lu Changfeng, and Wu Lingyu, he also saw Xiao Jianfei, who had been missing for a long time, and four other unfamiliar faces.

Among the four strangers invited by Ye Zhiqiu, there was a middle-aged man who caught Qin Feng's attention, because judging from the aura released by this person, Xiu Wei was at least a master of the Spirit Sect Realm.

As for the middle-aged man's accurate cultivation realm, with Qin Feng's strength, he couldn't see it.

It seems that this middle-aged man is the strongest combat force of this expeditionary team.

And Qin Feng was the only monk in the team whose realm was not yet the Spirit King realm, and he was also the weakest combat power on paper.
