Volume 1 The Old Days for the New Chapter 33 A dispute caused by an ice crystal snow lotus
Just now, I was glad that I got a coat and a scimitar from this battlefield, but I didn't expect that by chance, a treasure was smashed down from the rock wall.
Although the coat and scimitar are good, they are much worse than the thing in front of him, and Jiang Ling knows that he is developed in this game.
It is a milky white flower with a crystal clear texture, only the size of a palm, the flower buds are wide open, the stamens are slender and pale cyan, the fragrance is blowing, and the whole body feels cool but not cold when held in the hand.

Jiang Ling sat in the snow with a flower in his arms, full of surprise, and didn't react from the shit luck for a while.
The guide took two steps closer in shock, confirmed it again, and then said in surprise: "It's really an ice crystal snow lotus, this lotus can live and die human flesh and bones, and it is invaluable." In the past two years, the snow valley has been cold, and the number of medicine pickers has been greatly reduced, and the snow lotus has long been priceless, and there is no snow lotus in the palace, but I didn't expect to be met by us. β
As he spoke, the guide turned his head, looked at Qu Kun, restrained the surprise on his face, and said seriously: "My lord, Your Majesty's Holy Body has been... If you dedicate this snow lotus to Your Majesty and prolong your life, you can make a great achievement, and you will be able to get Your Majesty's appreciation! β
Halfway through the guide's speech, Jiang Ling heard that something was wrong, and after listening to it at this time, Jiang Ling vigilantly stood up with the snow lotus.
Lei Hu's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he took a step forward very simply, staring at Jiang Ling, and several other guards also looked at Jiang Ling with a little unkindness.
Jiang Ling's face did not change, ignoring the few guards who were eyeing him, but looked at Qu Kun who was looking behind and said indifferently: "Lord Qu, what does this mean?" β
"You found this snow lotus by chance, it's very good, and the adults will reward you." Lei Hu said indifferently: "Hand it over." β
Listening to Lei Hu's tone, several players were a little annoyed, it seemed that Lei Hu was actually going to rob openly, while Sun Xiaolou and Bo Boer took two steps closer to Jiang Ling, and they expressed their attitude very clearly by standing in a corner. As for Huo Liang hiding to the side, his eyes dodged, and he seemed to be a little timid, while Li Jiuxi lowered his head, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Jiang Ling ignored Lei Hu and still looked at Qu Kun quietly.
He wanted to see if the trust that Qu Kun had just given him could withstand the test.
Lei Hu's face turned a little colder, and said, "This thing is not what you deserve, you'd better get acquainted..."
"Shut up!" Qu Kun interrupted Lei Hu's words with a light snort, then showed an apologetic smile at Jiang Ling, and waved his hand at Lei Hu and said, "No matter what chance or what, since it was obtained by Junior Brother Jiang, it is his, Lei Hu, don't be rude." β
Lei Hu turned his head to look at Qu Kun and persuaded: "My lord, that's the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus, besides, they are just mercenaries hired by you, my lord, if you don't go into the valley with us, where will you get this Snow Lotus." β
The guide also said anxiously: "Your Majesty will be pleasantly surprised when you get it, this snow lotus is rare in a hundred years..."
"Shut up!" Qu Kun sighed lightly with a gloomy face.
The guide said anxiously: "In order to recuperate for Your Majesty, the princess has issued an edict around the Snow Valley to ask for the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus for more than half a year, as long as you can get this Snow Lotus back, both the princess and Your Majesty will be very happy..."
"I'm telling you to shut up!" Qu Kun's face was a little majestic.
Suddenly, Lei Hu and the guide stopped talking, and Qu Kun glanced at Lei Hu with deep meaning, and then looked at the guide.
Lei Hu also realized that something was wrong the next moment, and suddenly woke up, and came to the guide with a sharp face.
Qu Kun stared at the guide and asked solemnly, word by word, "Who are you?" β
Seeing that the situation had taken a sharp turn, Sun Xiaolou and the others were a little stunned and didn't understand what was happening, while Jiang Ling found the key to the matter after a short period of stunnedness, and also looked at the guide coldly.
This guide knows too much.
The guide's eyes changed slightly, realizing that he had said too much in a hurry, but he still insisted, "I am the guide that the county keeper helped you find." β
Qu Kun looked at the local guide who had been arranged for him by the local county guard, shook his head and said, "How do you know that Your Majesty's Holy Body has become weaker and weaker in recent years?" Even the fact that there is no snow lotus in the palace knows? β
"I... I used to be a medicine picker, and I once offered ice crystal snow lotus to the palace, so I know a little bit. The guide uttered a plausible statement.
And at this moment, Lei Hu's eyes were cold, and he suddenly made a move without warning, and he wanted to capture this guide from the side, but this guide who was hiding on the side when the dead man had just attacked, and seemed to be as weak as an ordinary person, unexpectedly suddenly dodged and avoided Lei Hu's surprise attack.
"Sure enough, there is a problem!" Thunder Tiger snorted lightly and pounced again.
The guide did have some strength, and he actually fought against Thunder Tiger in two moves, but he was still defeated by Thunder Tiger, and then hurriedly shouted: "Stop!" β
Several other guards also surrounded the guide in the middle, and Qu Kun asked, "Who are you?" β
"I am Your Majesty's secret servant, you have to hurt me!" The guide shouted out the truth in a hurry.
Qu Kun's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "Your Majesty's people!?" β
Thunder Tiger kicked the guide to the ground with a single move, and drew a knife to his neck.
"Why did Your Majesty call you?" Qu Kun took a step forward and asked.
The guide sat down on the ground, looked up and said to Qu Kun: "Because you are a colt, Your Majesty guessed that you are here to find the woman, so that I can keep an eye on you..."
"The princess called you." Qu Kun directly interrupted this person's words, then was silent for a moment, waved his hand to Lei Hu and said, "Let him go." β
Hearing this, Lei Hu put away his knife after a brief hesitation.
"Lord Qu, you can think clearly." Seeing this, the guide thought that Qu Kun didn't dare to move himself, so he put away his panic and said fearlessly: "It's not good for you to annoy the princess, and your future glory and wealth will be on Her Royal Highness the princess." β
"Help me tell the princess that I won't be going back." Qu Kun ignored it again.
The guide was stunned for a moment, and then said hatefully: "Good! I will tell the princess word for word. He got up and walked away, and walked back the way he came.
Who knew that after a while, a cold light flashed in Lei Hu's eyes, he took the longbow from one of the guards beside him, and directly picked up the arrow that was stopped by Jiang Ling with vines from the ground, and flew out with an arrow with a bow string, and the arrow slashed through the wind and snow like lightning, directly shooting the guide who had walked out more than ten meters to the ground, and it seemed that he would not get up again.
Qu Kun turned around, frowned in surprise and asked, "What are you doing!?" β
Lei Hu looked at Qu Kun and said calmly: "Whether you want to go back or not, keeping him is a disaster." β
"You..."Qu Kun glanced at Lei Hu, then just dropped his hand and sighed.
After a while, Qu Kun turned to Jiang Ling and said, "Junior Brother Jiang, the snow lotus was found by you, it is yours, don't worry." However, at this time, the guide is no longer there, and the danger of the road ahead has increased, so I will also increase the honorarium. β
"Okay." Jiang Ling responded when he heard this.
Only then did Jiang Ling confirm that this champion was indeed not a ruthless person in his heart.
In such a precipitous place that is rarely visited, it is indeed a little difficult to do without a guide, but Jiang Ling and a few people are on a mission, so naturally they can't retreat because of this.
The procession moved on, and after the incident, the crowd fell silent for a while.
Qu Kun didn't say anything anymore, just walked forward silently, he didn't want to think about whether the guide was the princess's person or His Majesty's person, and what was the purpose of placing such a person beside him, he was now sure that he only had one goal left, and that was to find her.
Even if there is no guide, even if it is dangerous.
Here, Jiang Ling leaned next to Sun Xiaolou and said, "How is this snow lotus counted?" β
Sun Xiaolou tilted his head and thought about it when he heard this, but finally said, "How do you want to calculate?" β
Jiang Ling didn't answer immediately, he was thinking about it, but at this time, someone spoke, it was Li Jiuxi, only to hear him come over and say: "For such an important thing, it's better for us to decide democratically with five people." β
Jiang Ling glanced at Li Jiuxi with some tears and laughter, and Bob on the side sneered unceremoniously, looked at Li Jiuxi with disdain and said, "I think it's better not to be democratic." β
Li Jiuxi frowned and said, "Since we are in a team, this kind of thing that we accidentally get in the dungeon should be counted in the team's common rewards, so we naturally have to distribute it well." β
"I'll be more direct." Bo Boer looked at Li Jiuxi and said word by word: "The snow lotus that people got, do your, can you have a face?" β
"You... What do you call that! Li Jiuxi glared angrily and said, "Isn't it that if I get something, I'll do your later?" β
Bob shrugged his shoulders and said, "Cut, Lao Tzu is not uncommon, besides, even if a person like you gets something, you have to hide it yourself." β
"Don't go too far!" Li Jiuxi pointed at Bobor and even held one hand on the hilt of the knife.
Bob also simply held the scimitar and said without giving in: "Yo, do you want to do it?!" β
"That's it!" Jiang Ling snorted, pulled the two apart with Huo Liang, and persuaded: "It's all one team, do you want to fight before you see your opponent?" β
"Anyway, Xuelian was made by the two of you flirting, I don't think I should give it to anyone, let alone him." Bober spoke casually.
Li Jiuxi glared at Boer again, and then snorted lightly: "There are no rules!" β
Jiang Ling didn't say more, he really didn't plan to divide the snow lotus to 5 people in his heart, after all, although this thing was obtained by accident, it was only related to himself and Sun Xiaolou, and there was no need for the team to divide it equally. And Jiang Ling still remembered that when Lei Hu showed his posture of wanting to buy and seize by force just now, it was Sun Xiaolou and Bo Boer who took a step forward and stood by his side, while Huo Liang and Li Jiuxi had a wait-and-see attitude that had nothing to do with themselves, so why should they give them a piece of the pie.
To put it mildly, in this game, this time's teammates may become opponents next time, and since Jiang Ling got this precious medical prop like Snow Lotus, since Jiang Ling got it first, even if he swallowed it alone, it was not unusual.
There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
This is a bit extreme, but I have to say that it is still very realistic, and it must be highlighted vividly in this game world.
Jiang Ling knows that he can do things worthy of his conscience, and he can not be a bad person, but if he wants to be a good person, he will be too reluctant to do so.
Therefore, Jiang Ling no longer paid attention to Li Jiuxi, although he did not say it explicitly, but expressed the meaning that Snow Lotus would not be given to him.
Li Jiuxi didn't say anything anymore, just glanced at Boer and Jiang Ling hatefully, he gritted his teeth, and silently said to himself in his heart: "Since you are a group of idiots, then it's no wonder that I am ruthless and unrighteous. β
