Chapter 46: He Xiaosi
Shen Hao led the two students into the tent assigned to his several people, which was a medium-sized tent for four people, but since the people living in this area were not dense, the three of them could be regarded as having this tent to themselves.
The SUV that had been stolen had broken down two days earlier, and the three of them had to walk through the wilderness on foot, with occasional small monsters along the way, including four apostles. Since they had left the jungle area, the nearby was as desolate as the Gobi, and it was difficult to find even the plants that started the fire at night, so the three of them could only snuggle together and endure the long cold night.
Mo Chenyan is relatively young, and unlike Su Yue, who has already swallowed the Wei Jing to strengthen her body, so she has already been tired and panting and sweating all the way. In addition, I have hardly slept peacefully in the past two days, and my haggard little face is covered with mud and dirt, and the whole person is like a little cat picked up from the ash heap.
Su Yue distressedly found a towel to wipe it for her, but it didn't have much effect, and at this time, Shen Hao had already carried two buckets of water from outside and walked in.
"Let's wash, there's no water cut here, and although there isn't enough fuel to have hot water ready at any time, it's still okay to take a cool shower." Shen Hao smiled, found a large plastic basin from outside the tent, then walked out of the tent, closed the curtain, sat on the Mazha bench next to him and felt out the cigarette.
Soon there was a splash in the tent, mixed with the whispers of the second daughter, Shen Hao smiled knowingly, brought the cigarette butt to his mouth and took a deep breath.
The Black Widow brought the news of the imminent arrival of the Poison King, and a trace of strangeness rose in Shen Hao's heart. Since the battle of the "Void Illusion" eighty years ago, he has never encountered this woman in the Nightmare Realm again.
The Battle of the Void Illusion was the largest battle ever fought between humans and the Nightmare in modern times, and it was a tragic victory, when the more than 20 surviving king-level powerhouses were almost wiped out, but they also successfully sniped the Nightmare in a large-scale hunting operation.
At that time, Shen Hao was still following his master's actions, and he could be regarded as a new king master. And Shi Yuxuan, the 'drug king' at that time, has been famous for many years. Unlike Shen Hao, Shi Yuxuan broke away from her own sect early on, and her past sect also interrupted her inheritance in several encounters with the Demon Nightmare.
Legend has it that before she became a Nightmare Hunter, she had already begun to practice a strange poisonous skill called the "Ten Thousand Poison Demon Heart Sutra", which was not like the fantasy martial arts in the 'True Martial Arts', but an ancient art that existed in the present world. With her domineering poison skills, she single-handedly dealt with a second-level nightmare after becoming a Nightmare Hunter for the first time, and her poison skills were later transformed into her natural abilities.
Shi Yuxuan is both medical and poisonous, and with the blessing of Nightmare Energy, her own poison skills are even more prevalent, although perhaps under the influence of practicing poison skills, her personality is a little obedient, but there are still a large number of Nightmare Hunters who do not hesitate to ask her for various medicines suitable for the Hunter's physique. Of course, there are not many people who can let her personally help with the refining of medicine, and even ordinary people can't even find her residence, but fortunately, Shen Hao is one of the people who can ask her to help.
Of course, this kind of help is not gratuitous, although she did not meet the Poison King in the Nightmare Realm, but Shen Hao has also collected a lot of suitable poisons and poison attribute Nightmare Crystals for her in the past hundred years. In addition, after all, they are all old people of the same era, and their personal relationship with each other is not bad.
Shi Yuxuan has not received many apprentices, except for the one who died before, there are two others who have followed him so far, one is the woman he met before, the "Black Widow" Zhu Ling who cultivated the "Black Spider Wolf Gu"; There is also one person who is a personal guard who never leaves the side all year round, and the "immortal evil general" Hong Zhongta, who cultivates the "Ten Thousand Poisonous Evil Body". The three masters and apprentices usually enter the Nightmare Realm together, but for some reason, they let Zhu Ling leave the team and go alone this time.
After thinking about it, the sound of water in the tent disappeared, and after a while, Su Yue, who had changed into clean clothes, opened the curtain and walked out while wiping her wet hair with a dry towel.
"Let's eat something, although the food distributed here really can't be on the table, but it can fill your stomach." Shen Hao took out his cigarette, took out a piece of squeezed weird-looking bread from his bag and handed it to her. Su Yue took the bread and sat down opposite him, as Shen Hao said, if this bread is placed in normal times, it is estimated that normal people will not have too much appetite, but for them who have been hungry for a long time, it is indeed a charcoal in the snow.
Su Yue munched on the hard bread while looking at Shen Hao on the other side curiously, since he had seen the woman before, Shen Hao seemed to have become a little preoccupied, making people have to guess the relationship between him and that woman.
“...... Who is that woman? After hesitating for a long time, Su Yue finally couldn't help but ask, for some reason, if she couldn't figure it out, Su Yue always felt unspeakably awkward in her heart.
"Her name is Zhu Ling, the apprentice of the poison king Shi Yuxuan, and a senior non-commissioned officer-level hunter. Speaking of which, the elixir that quickly recovered your strength was sent by her last time. Shen Hao explained lightly, and when he saw that Su Yue was having a hard time, he handed over the kettle and asked casually, "What about Xiao Mo?" ”
"I fell asleep after taking a bath...... Su Yue drank two sips of cold water, washed down the bread that was choking in her throat, and exhaled deeply, "This child can be regarded as tired these days, but she does have a lot of perseverance, when I helped her take a bath just now, I saw several big blisters on her feet, some of which were worn out, and she didn't say a word along the way." ”
"It's good to be able to do this, after all, it's only a half-grown child." Shen Hao stood up, dusted off the ashes on his body and said, "There is still some food in the bag, you bring it in, if she wakes up, let her eat some." I'm going to take a shower, and I'll take a look around the neighborhood to find out what's going on here. ”
"Oh." Su Yue agreed, stood up too, and patted the breadcrumbs in his hand. At this time, Shen Hao happened to pass by her, and a whisper with a stream of hot air sprayed to the base of her ear.
"Actually, you're doing a pretty good job......
The camp of the stadium is not big or small, hundreds of tents, thousands of people living together, coupled with the lack of effective management, the whole camp is like a chaotic whirlpool, robberies, brawls often occur, and the armed forces that control this place themselves are from the underworld, not only do not stop the turmoil, but participate in it, and the guns in their hands are even more unscrupulous, Shen Hao can even feel that there is an invisible resentment in the sky above the camp is gathering rapidly.
Shen Hao was alone, and soon some gangsters who tried to fight the autumn wind surrounded him, and Shen Hao naturally would not show mercy to these scumbags. After dropping a body torn in half, all the thugs scattered, and no one dared to come within 10 meters of him.
The stadium management office, which has now become the temporary headquarters of the local armed forces, Shen Hao strode closer, and the guards with guns around him were immediately alarmed, and there was a sound of bullets being loaded, and dozens of various firearms were all aimed at Shen Hao's head. However, due to Shen Haosheng's momentum of tearing up the living before, no one dared to really shoot.
"I'm sorry, this is a forbidden area, idlers are not allowed to enter!" A man with long hair stood in front of Shen Hao with a desert/eagle, and shouted in a stiff tone. Shen Hao noticed that he was carrying a red sheathed long sword behind his back, and he thought that he was the controller of this stadium - one of the hunters from the 'Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals'.
"I have no ill will." Shen Hao slowly opened his hands, indicating that he didn't have any threatening weapons on his body, and said with a smile, "I just want to ask to see the person in charge of your palace, and ask this little brother to pass it on to me." ”
Shen Hao said that the cloud was light and light, not at all like being pointed at the head by so many guns, the long-haired man's pupils shrank, and he didn't dare to despise it, but it was impossible to let him pass like this. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the wooden door open behind him, and a young man in a cyan Tang suit and gold wire glasses strode out of it.
"Senior brother!" The long-haired man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, quickly put down the pistol, stepped aside, and whispered to the eyed man, "Senior brother, he ...... this person"
The man with glasses stretched out his hand to stop his next words, smiled slightly, made a gesture of invitation to Shen Hao, and said, "Since my colleagues are here, they are helping my Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, why don't you go into the house and talk about it?" ”
"It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, Shen does have something to ask for today, and I'm bothered." Shen Hao smiled and arched his hand, and followed the man with glasses into the heavily guarded management office building.
An office on the first floor was converted into a meeting room, and the two sides sat across from the coffee table, and a woman came in and served two cups of tea, then bent down and withdrew, and closed the door. Only Shen Hao and the young man with glasses were left in the room.
"Under the surname He, ranked fourth, favored by the elders in the palace, call me a little four, I don't know what Your Excellency calls it?" The man with glasses saw Shen Hao on the opposite side drinking tea unhurriedly, a trace of essence flashed in his eyes, and he spoke tentatively first.
"Under Shen Hao, it's just an ordinary idle nightmare hunter." Shen Hao put down the teacup and smiled, and said, "I have heard the name of the Ten Thousand Immortal Hall for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to pay a visit...... Alas, I am ashamed to say that I passed by here with two newly admitted students, and accidentally ran out of ammunition, and when I saw this stadium from afar, I dared to approach to find a solution. Thanks to your palace, the three of us have a place to live, and I am really grateful. ”
"The nightmare hunters in the world are all one family, everyone is fighting for survival and freedom, so naturally they should take care of each other, so why worry about a little thing." He Xiaosi narrowed his eyes, of course he knew that Shen Hao came here with such fanfare, it was definitely not just to say thank you, and he naturally snorted haha.
Shen Hao smashed his mouth, it seemed that there was something unspeakable, and after hesitating for a while, he still sighed lightly and said: "I can't hide it, Shen does have something to ask for this time, I don't know if your palace can help a little, and there will be heavy thanks after the next one." ”
"Mr. Shen, please say, it is naturally incumbent on you to do things within your ability, if you can't handle it in Xia, you will naturally tell your uncle below, although his old man is not very good at talking, but if the matter is not big, he should still be able to be accommodating." He Xiaosi's words were high-sounding, but in fact, he did not give any promise, obviously extremely vigilant about the request that Shen Hao was about to make.
"Alas, I hate to bargain with this kind of guy the most......" Shen Hao scolded secretly in his heart, the smile on his face was the same, but the corners of his eyebrows twitched inadvertently.
