"Phew, there shouldn't be any horses caught by them. Well, I don't want to, so let's take a good rest. He returned to the room and breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself. Then he shook his head and walked to the bed, ready to practice and recover from the damage he had just received.

Exhaling a breath of turbidity, Aotian woke up from his cultivation, got up and saw that the sky outside the window was already dark, washed it, and practiced the Seven Star Fist in the room for a while, and planned to go downstairs to meet them.

"You're so early?"

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw that the group of mercenaries had already eaten breakfast downstairs.

Maybe it's because of what happened last night, the eight mercenaries left left with a sad "En", and then they didn't speak, and their faces were covered with gloomy clouds, and under this influence, there seemed to be a faint layer of sadness in the air.

I saw Wang Ming come down from the upper floor and sighed: "Do you still plan to continue to complete this task? Our wife said, if you give up now, we will not blame you, the commission will be paid to you in full, and the members of your regiment who died yesterday will be given a sufficient pension, and we will also pay a certain amount of compensation for the injured! If you continue to accept this task, we will pay double the commission!"

"Yes, we have never given up on the mission we have accepted in the Wolf Mercenary Regiment, and we will complete it no matter how difficult it is. We don't need your double commission, we know the danger and difficulty of this road when we step into the mercenary world! Since we have received this task, there is no reason to give up!" Hearing the old man's words, the mercenary leader said firmly.

Hearing this answer, Wang Ming's eyes couldn't help but flash with admiration and emotion: "Since you are willing to continue to complete, then let's prepare and set off." After today, tomorrow we should be waiting for the guards sent by our family, and everything will be fine then. After saying that, the old man then turned and walked upstairs, apparently preparing to leave.

The scorching sun is like fire, and the fiery breath is constantly baking everyone who is exposed to the sun! There is a dead silence around, and there seems to be no lifeless activity! At this moment, a team of chariots and horses on the avenue is continuing to move forward on the empty road under the scorching sun, and Aotian on horseback feels that his body has become like a charcoal, and sweat is like rain, "What the hell is the weather?" Rao is Aotian, who usually never speaks foul language, can't help but complain secretly.

"Uncle Wang, it's noon, let's find a place to rest, it's too hot. A pleasant sound came from the carriage, breaking the silence and injecting a cool breath into the hot summer day.

"Madam, there is a town five miles ahead, where shall we go to rest!" Hearing the words in the car, Wang Ming, who was wiping his sweat, nodded and said.

Hearing this, the team couldn't help but speed up and walked forward.

''''''''''''''''''''

Seeing the restaurant in front of me, the team finally arranged for everyone to quickly run into the store to enjoy the coolness. The girl who got off the carriage wiped the sweat on her head, looked at the sky, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but pout slightly, and she muttered two sentences in her mouth, as if she was complaining about the hot weather: "Uncle Wang, take a rest first, call for some herbal tea to quench your thirst!"

Wang Ming turned around and exhaled and shouted, "Boss, is there still a place?"

In a moment, a guy ran out of the store: "Youle" waved his hand and led Aotian and them inside.

When he sat down at the table, Wang Ming turned to look at the young man: "Give us some herbal tea and some pastries."

"Do you want anything else to eat?" the guy asked.

"When you're done, let's have some special side dishes in your shop? After thinking about it, Wang Ming groaned.

"Okay, please wait!"

Drinking the herbal tea in the cup, everyone felt a trace of coolness.

"We don't know your name, this little brother, can you tell us about it?" the woman said, putting down the cup.

"Long Aotian!"

Aotian replied lightly.

"Hehe, Long Aotian, a very good name. Hearing Aotian's answer, the lady read it lightly and smiled slightly.

Aotian seemed to have returned to that cold posture, but after a smile in return, he didn't speak, seeing Aotian's performance, Mrs. didn't ask, and everyone fell silent again.

Soon, the rest time had passed, and they continued to start on their way.

There was nothing for a day, everyone completed the day's trip under the scorching sun, and nothing similar to yesterday happened in the evening, and everyone quickly ushered in the next day's trip.

At noon that day, another group of guards, apparently sent by the woman's family, joined the team. Looking at their well-trained appearance, Aotian can feel their strength, and the most important thing is that each of them has the strength of a sword master, which can't help but make Aotian wonder, what kind of family would have such a strong strength?!

''''''''''

Maybe it's because of the addition of the guards, or maybe it's because the gang of blacks gave up the task, in short, the next road is smooth sailing, and Aotian is also happy to be idle, hanging at the back of the team all day long, slowly moving forward!

Today is the fifth day of the march, and at noon on this day, Aotian finally saw the towering imperial capital city wall in front of him: "Are you back? It's so fast!" Looking at the people coming and going in front of the door, Aotian looked at the city gate, and his eyes couldn't help but show a trace of confusion and hesitation.

"Aotian, let's go, what are you doing?" one of the guards shouted when he saw Aotian who couldn't stop.

Catch up quickly: "Oh, I'm coming!" Aotian walked towards the city.

Entering the city, the bustling streets are full of people, and the shouts here and there are •••••• endless.

At this time, the woman in the car said, "Aotian, where are you going? We are going to South Avenue now, will you stop by with us? Do you want to go to our place to have fun?"

"No, I'm going north! I won't go, thank you!" Declining the woman's invitation, Aotian prepared to move forward.

"Oh, that's it, then remember, if you have any trouble in the Imperial Capital in the future, you can come to Ouyang's house at No. 4 South Avenue to find us! Hearing that Aotian had rejected his invitation, the woman who knew his character was not surprised to get along along the way.

"Well, thank you, I will!" Aotian was surprised by the woman's words, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, "Why is she so enthusiastic about me?

"Okay, then let's split up here, and remember to play when we have time. Uncle Wang, let's go!" said politely, and the woman continued to say to Wang Ming.

"Mother, why are you so good to that Aotian, I have never seen you so good to an outsider!"

"Hehe, Ruoshui, you are still young, and you don't understand many things, you will know later!" said the woman, touching the girl's head.

"Mother, I'm not young anymore, I'm a second-year student of the Senior College of Xuanwu Academy in the second half of the year, not young!Why do you always say I'm small!~~" Pouting, the girl lied to the woman.

"Well, you've been restless these days, what's the matter? Since you were attacked by the man in black that night, you've often been alone until now?" the woman didn't continue with the topic but moved on to another topic.

Hearing the woman's words, the girl's face brushed up, and she instantly turned red: "Mother, no, where is it as you say." ”

smiled helplessly: "Actually, if you don't say that I know a little bit, you are probably thinking about the man in black who saved us that day, right?"

At this moment, the girl simply threw herself into Madame's arms, and said coquettishly: "No, mother, how can you say that about me? But the man in black who saved us that day is really powerful!"

"Hehe, you still say you don't miss him, look at your current expression and betray you. ”

"No, I'm just ~~~~~~~~," the woman quibbled.

There was a burst of spring light in the car, and if anyone could see it, they would definitely spew nosebleeds.

"Okay, don't make a fuss! But you think he's normal, but aren't you afraid that he's an old man? You must know that person should have the strength of a sword king, and generally the masters who reach the sword king are close to forty years old!"

"Is he the strength of the Sword King? How could he defeat that group of people so easily? Also, look at his hands and eyes like a young man!" the girl said carefully, recalling the appearance of the man in black one day.

Similarly, the woman's thoughts couldn't help but return to the scene that day, "Well, he should be a master at the level of the Sword King, and he should be in the late stage of the Sword King!" He defeated the group of people in clothes so easily that day, because he fought with each other, and quickly defeated the three people and scared away the group of people in black, but you may not have noticed that he received at least three injuries that day, and when he left, I noticed that the blood on his body flowed out! Also, his skin is good, maybe someone else is well maintained, have you heard that person reached the level of the sword king before the age of 30, it seems that the first person to reach this level in history is also 28 years old, right? At the end, the woman laughed.

Hearing the woman's words, the girl's eyes couldn't help but darken, and she muttered, "Yes, maybe it's someone else's own maintenance number!" and then asked, "Mother, was he really injured that day?"

"Hehe, don't you believe my eyes? You must know that I have the strength of a swordsman when I say this, I can't be wrong. ”

"Oh, that's right, no, how did we talk about it? Didn't we just talk about that arrogant?" Suddenly, the girl had a feeling that she had been fooled.

"Hehe, you don't have to know now, maybe you will know later!" said the woman, smiling.

"Mother, just tell me!"

"Madame, Mademoiselle, I'm home. At this time, Wang Ming's voice outside the car interrupted the mother and daughter's chat.

"Let's go, we're home!" said the woman who heard Wang Ming's words.

"Oh, well, I'm going to see my father. Excitedly, the girl quickly got out of the car and walked towards the gate.
