Chapter 9: Giant Wood Town
Zhang Feng originally wanted to habitually introduce himself as a scientific research worker, but he remembered that this was a different world and did not have this kind of profession, so he lied that he was an archer based on the longbow in his hand. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the kung fu of the two exchanges, the middle-aged man with the sword has already rescued three companions, two seriously injured and one lightly injured, as for the axe-wielding man who was pierced through the body by the ground stab, he has already died. Seeing that the group did not bring any wound medicine, Zhang Feng also generously took out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao and helped the wounded to take it internally and externally, which stabilized their injuries.
After dealing with everything, Zhang Feng sniffed the smell in the air and said, "Cassie, you and your four subordinates had better take a shower and change their clothes, you are all stained with the urine of the female violent bear, and it is easy to attract the attack of the male bear." ”
Hearing this, the faces of the five people changed greatly, and the middle-aged man with the sword said urgently: "Young master, I'm afraid we have been calculated, it must be a big ...... Well, they must be trying to ruin your adult trials, or even kill you outright, never to be heard. ”
Cassie's face was also a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Bury Uncle Chen first, and then go back to Jumu Town." ”
Zhang Feng touched his nose and said with some embarrassment: "Can I go back to Jumu Town with you, I've been lost for a few days." ”
After hastily burying the dead, several people embarked on a journey back to Jumu Town.
Waiting for a few people to walk away, two mysterious people with thin bodies and black scarves and masks came out of the bushes, and one of them said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that the layout would be laid out for so long, just because of a foreign intruder." ”
The other person nodded and said, "Let's go back immediately and report the situation here to the chief, I think the leader will have a way to complete this business." ”

With the guide, the trip was much faster, and Zhang Feng also inquired about a lot of the current situation in the Tianjing Continent, especially the Byron Kingdom, in the conversation with several people. At the same time, he also learns that Cassie is a student of Babel Academy, and he has come to the Endless Forest to complete the family's adult trials. Zhang Feng was a little stunned when he heard this, looking at Cassie's appearance, how could he be an adult, could it be that he was mature. Through later conversations, I learned that due to the popularity of Douqi cultivation and magic cultivation in the Tianjing Continent, the lifespan of people is much longer than that of the earth, and the average age of about 120 years old and twenty-four years old is considered normal.
On the afternoon of the third day, the group rushed to Jumu Town. Standing under the city wall more than 30 meters high and made of huge timber hugging several people, watching the adventurers who were dressed differently and looked even more strange come in and out, Zhang Feng really felt that he was really in another world.
Meanwhile, in a house in a remote corner of Giant Wood Town, two masked men are bowing their heads and reporting to a mysterious man who is standing in the shadows and cannot see his age.
"Chief, this is how it happened, if it weren't for that archer, the Nine Emperors would have died. Now that they have been on guard, and they have returned to Jumu Town, it will not be easy for us to start again. ”
The mysterious man smiled coldly and said, "Since it is the appearance of the remnants of the Tang Dynasty, it may be someone from Luo Guifei's side." Although that woman is dead, her father Luo Xiaotian's power is not small, and he is very prestigious among the remnants of the Tang Dynasty. If he stands up to support his grandson's fight for the throne, it will be a real problem. However, the premise of all this is that the Nine Emperor Princes are still alive, and I will not let him return to the imperial capital alive. ”
The mysterious man turned around, picked up an iron cage from behind him, placed it in front of the two masked men, pointed to the sleeping kitten in the cage, and said, "Tonight you sneak into the adventurer's house, kill this little beast in front of the door of the Nine Emperor Princes, and smear its blood on the door." After completing the mission, go back to the headquarters first, there will be some danger here these days, and you can only die if you stay. ”
"Yes" The two masked men didn't dare to say more, agreed, hugged the cage, and withdrew.
After entering the town, Zhang Feng said goodbye to Cassie and his party and began to act alone. Zhang Feng has a lot of secrets, especially the existence of Guangmen, which needs to be kept strictly secret, and it will be very inconvenient to live with other people. In the past few days that he followed Cassie and his party back to Jumu Town, he didn't return to Earth, and Zhang Feng was worried that he would not be able to contact him for a long time, and his family and friends would be worried.
After asking passers-by for directions, Zhang Feng went straight to the tallest tower-like building in the eastern part of the town, where the Wizards' Guild was stationed. Originally, with the size of Giant Wood Town, it would not arouse the interest of the Mage Guild, but Giant Wood Town is close to the Endless Forest, and a large number of magic cores, magic herbs and other resources urgently needed by mages are produced every year, so this station is here. Zhang Feng needed some currency of this world, and he didn't have many things in his hands that could be exchanged for money, so he could only sell those demon cores after thinking about it.
Giant Wood Town is mostly made of wood, and the Mage's Guild is one of the few brick and stone buildings. The towering tower made of cyan stone is majestic and eye-catching. The hall on the first floor of the entire tower is a magical material acquisition area, with an area of almost three hundred square meters, except for one side facing the street, which is left empty, and the other three sides are acquisition counters. It's late afternoon, and adventurers are returning to Giant Wood Town after a day's adventure, mostly choosing this time to sell their day's harvest, so the hall is full of people, and there are long queues in front of the various counters.
Zhang Feng was not in a hurry, and lined up in front of the counter marked "Magic Core Acquisition Area". There were quite a few people selling demon cores, but most of them only had one or two, and the speed of the team was still very fast, and it was Zhang Feng's turn after only ten or so minutes.
Zhang Feng took out a small cloth bag from his backpack, opened the rope at the mouth of the bag, and dumped more than a dozen magic cores on the counter, causing a burst of amazement and envy from the adventurers around. In order not to attract too many people's attention, these dozen or so magic cores were specially selected by Zhang Feng, all of them were first- and second-level magic cores, and there was only one third-level magic core. But Zhang Feng forgot that Jumu Town was a small place, and most of the adventurers who came and went were high-level apprentices or first-order professionals, and it was difficult to sell more than a dozen magic cores at a time without causing a sensation.
The person in charge of the acquisition of the magic core was a gray-haired old man, and when he saw the dozen or so magic cores on the counter, his expression did not fluctuate, he just looked up at Zhang Feng with some curiosity, and then continued to work on his own face as usual. Some of the thin palms stroked the demon cores one by one, and the demon cores were lit one after another, emitting soft light of various colors, and as the old man's hand left, the light gradually faded away. Finally, the old man's hand rested on the third-level magic core the size of a ping-pong ball, and with a flick of his fingers, a somewhat dazzling cyan light emitted from the magic core.
