Chapter 40: Can It Be Done?
Returning to the hotel and sitting down, Ning Yue still looked at the familiar face in front of him in disbelief, and wanted to say something several times, but he couldn't speak, so he had to swallow the words back into his stomach.
Seeing his embarrassment, the man shook his head, took a glass of lemonade handed by the maid, and thanked him with a smile, his handsome face and friendliness made the maid's cheeks red, and her steps seemed to be a little chaotic when she turned away.
Gently taking a sip of lemonade, he said slowly: "What's the matter, Xiao Yue, won't you see that I can't say a word, right?"
On the side, Chang Xuanxuan was also waiting for Ning Yue's reply, he wanted to know what the seemingly kind young man in front of him had to do with Ning Yue. Moreover, he had a faint hunch that this person's strength might be no less than that of Nangong Xuan.
"Big brother. ”
Finally, Ning Yue responded.
"That's right. ”
Nodding, Yun Xuan Sword Pavilion Senior Brother Ying Tianxu raised his hand and gently tapped on the table, and continued: "I have also heard about Xiao Yue, if it weren't for my absence, I would definitely not have asked you to do such a thing." For some people, it's gone too far. ”
"Senior brother, do you believe me?"
Ning Yue was stunned for a moment, and categorically didn't expect it to be such an opening statement. I thought I was going to be trained this time.
"Then let me ask you, Xiao Yue, do you believe me?" Ying Tianxu smiled and did not answer.
"Believe. Without the slightest hesitation, Ning Yue's answer was very affirmative. In the Cloud Void Sword Pavilion, he only believed in three people, Shizun, Senior Brother Ying Tianxu, and Senior Sister Wei'er. Originally, there was also a junior brother, but he didn't expect to turn against him and give him a fatal blow.
Nodding and smiling, Ying Tianxu replied: "Isn't this it? The little more I know can't do such a crazy thing, and although your eyes are a little more angry than the last time we met, they are far from being extremely vicious." Not to mention anything else, senior brother, I am still very conceited about my own vision of people. ”
"Can you let me interject, can you delay the old memories and greetings between your brothers and sisters?"
Su Qian, who had been silent, finally couldn't help it, looked at Ying Tianxu and asked directly: "You just said that you know Nangong Xuan's whereabouts? Can you tell me now, if it is correct, there will be heavy thanks afterwards." ”
"Now that you're gone, you'll never come back, so what's the thanks. To do things, you must know how to do what you can. Even if you don't know the details of each other, you can estimate the gap between them after all. The two of them can't take it together, and you're still going to die alone?"
Ying Tianxu shook his head and replied, picking up the water cup and taking another sip.
"Courage is commendable, but there is courage and no strategy. ”
"You!"
Slapping the table, Su Qian's face was full of anger, looking at Ying Tianxu's quiet and peaceful face, and her heart was even more resentful. However, she was not just one to do things on impulse, and she let out a long breath and sat down again.
"I know I'm no match for him, but with some luck, I'm happy to win......"
"Luck? In the face of such a difference in strength, what is the reason for your luck?"
Ying Tianxu shook his head, looked at Chang Xuanxuan again, and said suspiciously: "You and her strength are equal, but the foundation is solid, and it stands to reason that it is no problem to protect yourself...... If I'm not mistaken, you're injured, or you're not at your peak and can't exert your full strength. ”
"Awesome, in a word. ”
Chang Xuanxuan exclaimed, and suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he lowered his voice a little.
"May I ask, have you actually watched the play for a long time, but you haven't made a shot?"
"That's what I want to ask too. ”
Ning Yue nodded, and there was a little more doubt in his eyes when he looked at Ying Tianxu.
Gently put down the water cup in his hand, looking down at the pale ripples of the circles on the water surface, Ying Tianxu smiled mysteriously: "Put a long line and catch a big fish." On the contrary, if you take him down today, I will have more headaches, and all this time of hard work will be in vain. If that happens, I'll help him escape. ”
A trace of surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes, Su Qian was about to question, a heavy collision sound startled in front of her, and when she heard the sound, she saw a large plate that could be called a basin filled with all kinds of barbecue meat, chickens, ducks, fish and cows, with bursts of appetizing and tempting fragrance.
On both sides of the plate, a pair of big furry hands took advantage of the situation to retract, and when they looked up, a tall and rugged figure stood aside, gray and white hair emerging from under the simple robe, quite wild.
It wasn't a man standing there, but a wolf.
To be precise, that's the boss of this place, the wolf-shaped half-orc Sima Hong.
"Boys, I've seen everything just now, no matter whether it's success or failure, you must be hungry after a fight, eat more. If you're hungry, you can't do anything, can you?"
smiled heartily, but his seemingly hideous face had a friendly demeanor, his gaze swept down Chang Xuanxuan, and his big hand patted him on the shoulder, and his laughter was even more hearty.
"That's right, I know that I have brought new friends to your Uncle Hong's shop to take care of business, just eat, and I will give you a special price today. If there's anything else you need, just say it. Okay, I'm too busy over there, so I'll go back first. ”
As soon as the words fell, he grabbed a piece from the top of the high tired barbecue and threw it into his mouth, chewed and walked briskly back to the high table cooking not far away, and continued to start his work.
Looking at the other three people with a surprised look, Chang Xuanxuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Old friends, every time I come here, Uncle Hong gives me a lot of barbecue platters on this table, let's eat together." I got into a fight, and I was more or less hungry. ”
"That's really...... That's a lot. ”
Looking up at the pile of barbecue like a hill, Ning Yue smashed it and smashed it, feeling like he had nothing to do.
And Ying Tianxu was not polite at all, raised his hand and grabbed a few pieces and put them on his plate, and directly began to have a large piece of Duoying, and praised again and again: "I have heard that in Qingfeng City, this store is a must, and I have never had the opportunity to taste it, I didn't expect to have such a good opportunity to borrow Xiaoyue's love today." ”
"Do you want to eat and wait a while, can you finish talking first?"
On the side, Su Qian definitely didn't have the slightest appetite, obviously caring about Ying Tianxu's words just now, not only did not help, but even intentionally stopped it.
"The boss is right, it's good to work when you're full. It's over, and it won't change if I mention it again, it's noon, I'm very hungry, and it's not too late to talk about it after eating. ”
Chang Xuanxuan persuaded him, and also started to eat, and his actions were more Sven than Ning Yue and Ying Tianxu, but to deal with such a barbecue platter, Sven was only relatively speaking.
Half an hour passed quickly, several plates were bottomed out, and there were a bunch of gnawed bones scattered on the table, and Su Qian, who hadn't eaten much at all, elegantly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and finally couldn't help but ask again: "Now, can you say it?"
"It's fair to say, people have come. ”
Ying Tianxu smiled, looked at a figure coming straight to this side, and before he could say a word, the other party punched him directly on the shoulder, and scolded: "Okay, you Ying Tianxu, you are tired and tired and ask me to go, you are here to enjoy a gluttonous meal, it's too boring, right?"
"It's your previous bet that you lost, don't pay the bill. After the deed is done, I will treat you again. How's it going, has it been done?"
After that, Ying Tianxu smiled and handed over a glass of fruit wine, and the visitor took the cup and drank it all in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and nodded.
"Of course, is there anything I can't do? It's just that you plan to take these people with you?" He looked at Ning Yue, Su Qian, and Chang Xuanxuan suspiciously, and didn't seem to believe it.
"Xiao Yue's friend, naturally trustworthy. This place is inconvenient to talk to, so let's change it. ”
After a while, the five of them came to a relatively remote courtyard, Su Qian led them into the house, and said with a cross hand: "Sit casually, this is my foothold, absolutely safe and hidden." ”
"I believe in the way the hunt works. ”
Snorting and laughing, the person who didn't know the origin sat directly on the table, and then, most of the giggling on his face disappeared, and his expression became solemn.
"Tianxu, as you guessed, this is a big deal. ”
Raising his hand to signal him to wait first, Ying Tianxu moved his eyes to Su Qian and Chang Xuanxuan, and asked, "Have you two heard of the Holy Mission?"
"Of course, an underground organization scattered in many empires on the frontier of all nations is ruthless and vicious, and it is the most important evil to collect money to assassinate and traffick people. For them, there is a lot of information about the hunt. Su Qian replied coldly.
The person at the table shook his head and said, "But I'm afraid there is a lot of key information missing." Or maybe you're too low to reach the core. For example, today's Nangong Xuan, he is a person of the Holy Mission, and he is also one of the five protectors. Do you know this?"
"The Five Dharma Protectors?"
Hearing this, Chang Xuanxuan was taken aback and muttered: "The five protectors of the Holy Mission Sect are said to be from the same sect and practice the five poisons, each of which is a spiritual level martial art, and the movements imitate poisons, and the moves are ruthless and direct to the point...... That's right, that Nangong Xuan's trick is like a chela, and the whip leg is like a scorpion tail. One of the five poisons, a scorpion?"
"That's right. ”
Ying Tianxu nodded, his eyes yearning for Su Qian: "Now, you should be able to understand what I mean, right?"
"If you're not mistaken, you're planning to eradicate the Holy Mission Stronghold that is dormant in this Qingfeng City?"
Suddenly, Su Qian's eyes lit up. Although her goal is only in Nangong, it is naturally better to take more credit.
"Of course, otherwise why would I follow that Nangong around and track down his whereabouts. It's really cunning, it's not a scorpion, it's really a few hidden places back and forth, but it can't get rid of my eyes after all. ”
Syllable!
The man at the table smiled and snapped a sketch of the street and a twisted route.
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, Bounty Hunter, Liu Chong. ”
"Chasing souls and asking for your life, thousands of miles away? Are you that Liu Chong?"
Suddenly, Chang Xuanxuan's eyes were even more surprised, he had heard this name many times.
In the territory of the Snow Dragon Empire, there are many outstanding bounty hunters, and this Liu Chong is the best among them.
Similarly, Su Qian, who was a fierce hunter of the Imperial City Guards, was also, but his expression did not change as much as Chang Xuanxuan, and in addition to being surprised, he gritted his teeth and said: "Nangong Xuan is mine, whether it is his life or the bounty." Take the rest. ”
"Nangong Xuan is still up to the three of you to deal with, as for how to divide the results, that's your business. For the rest, don't meddle, I'll figure it out. No bargaining, this is the biggest concession, otherwise, I can do it alone. ”
Liu Chong snorted and glanced at Ying Tianxu again.
"As long as we can successfully capture the stronghold, it is not too late to say how the harvest will be distributed. Ying Tianxu didn't care.
On the side, Ning Yue's heart was already overturned.
Red Wolf, Hunting, Bounty Hunter...... Coupled with the most outstanding disciples of the Yunxu Sword Pavilion and him, this team is not simple.
However, it is still difficult to say whether it will be successful......
