Chapter 397: Pearl Capture Conference (7)
Jiang Ling walked close to the Bailuo City Lord's Mansion, and as he walked, he also spread his mental power from time to time to explore the surroundings. He also looked at the surrounding houses, and secretly thought to himself: "This dragon ball is too hidden, and it has the function of shielding telekinesis, if it weren't for the fact that each player has the location information of the dragon ball innately, just by looking for it door by door, then you have to find the year of the monkey." It seems that asking the guards of the City Lord's Mansion to inquire about information is the key to the previous pearl capture conference. ”
Jiang Ling didn't go far, but he saw the middle-aged man in blue before, Jiang Ling was wary of him, but he didn't deliberately avoid it. When the man saw Jiang Ling, he approached with a smile on his face, and greeted Jiang Ling ten steps away and said, "This little brother is going to the City Lord's Mansion?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Ling responded flatly.
The middle-aged man in blue didn't care about Jiang Ling's indifference at all, and still smiled: "I am Gao Jiulin, a disciple of the Huishan faction, which sect do I dare to learn from for my little brother?" ”
Jiang Ling had also seen this Huishan faction in the books, and it was also considered a weaker sect in the second-rate sect, inferior to the Heavenly Wolf Sect. Jiang Ling naturally wouldn't be as honest as he was with the blacksmith, he originally wanted to say casually that he had no comment, but after thinking about it, he couldn't get some information from the other party, so he made it up nonsense: "I am Jiang Ling, a disciple of the Earth Dragon Sect." ”
The location of the Earth Dragon Sect is at the southern tip of the continent, and this middle-aged person should not know much, so it is not easy to be recognized.
Gao Jiulin nodded slightly, and said with a little surprise: "The Earth Dragon Sect is far away from here, I didn't expect to be able to meet the Daoist friends of the Earth Dragon Sect here." ”
"Admired." Jiang Ling didn't explain much, he was already panicking, and explaining too much would create more loopholes, pretending to be vigilant would also make the other party uncertain about the authenticity.
If Gao Jiulin said that he didn't doubt it, it would definitely be false, but naturally it was not convenient to get to the bottom of it, he said with a little approval: "Little Brother Jiang is still young and has such a cultivation, he must be the leader in the sect, and the Earth Dragon Sect is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." ”
Hearing that the other party was still tempting, Jiang Ling didn't answer, and asked instead, "What is the matter with Senior Brother?" ”
"Little brother don't be suspicious, I have no ill intentions." Gao Jiulin smiled kindly and said, "I'm just here to try my luck at the Pearl Winning Conference, after all, it's also a good thing to be able to make friends with some heroes in the world." ”
Jiang Ling didn't care if his words were a little hypocritical, but just praised him: "Brother Gao is really an open-minded person." ”
Gao Jiulin said: "Although it is important to capture the pearl, it will not hurt the harmony because of this, right?" Is it the first time for Brother Jiang to participate in the pearl competition? ”
"That's right." Jiang Ling glanced at him and asked, "Senior Brother has also been here before?" ”
"I came here once last year, and naturally I came back empty-handed." Gao Jiulin said helplessly: "There are many strong people in this pearl winning conference, and I really don't like it with my ability." ”
Although Jiang Ling did not have the reckless exploration of his mental power, he also vaguely felt that this person was a spiritual master whose strength was not inferior to his own. Jiang Ling continued: "Senior brother is too modest. Now that you've been here once, you must have some experience, and this time you can stand out. ”
"I lend you good words." Gao Jiulin nodded slightly in thanks, and then sighed and said, "But this time, there are a lot of powerful people with a prominent reputation." I don't know if you just saw it, but that Fang Qiyi snatched a dragon ball from a powerful mage in the blink of an eye. ”
"See." There was no need for Jiang Ling to lie in this matter, he said: "This Fang Qiyi is a strong person in the Heavenly Transformation Upper Realm, and he is really a fierce enemy. ”
Gao Jiulin said in a low voice: "That's right, he cultivates the method of barbaric forging body, and he is covered in steel and iron bones.
Invulnerable, there are few opponents under the Xuanji, and it is by no means a one-man enemy. You can also see that he has a cold temperament, does not show any affection, and has a reputation like a demon in the outside world. And I saw that Ding Haibin of Tanyue Pavilion also came, that senior realm is also one foot into the heavenly change realm, the most hateful thing is that although he is from a famous family, his methods are vicious and cold-blooded. And I don't know if you have heard of it, this old guy is extremely lustful, and often tricks young women to be his maidservants, and I don't know how many girls he has harmed over the years, which is simply shameful. However, his strength is strong, and he has Tanyue Pavilion to rely on, and ordinary people can't help him. ”
Jiang Ling nodded, his expression was also sufficient, but he probably understood in his heart what kind of tricks this Gao Jiulin was doing, it was nothing more than a trick around, pretending to be indisputable and plain, and then shifting everyone's attention to strong people like Fang Qiyi and Ding Haibin, saying that they were powerful and were fierce rivals for winning pearls, and emphasized that these two people acted badly and had corrupt morals, and faintly had the meaning of occupying the moral high ground, implying that everyone would first get rid of these two people with the same hatred.
Through this method of pretending to be obedient and making enemies for others at the same time, everyone can focus their hostility on those two people, and there is a great posture of the party fighting against differences.
It's not so vicious, but it's a little clever. Of course, Jiang Ling still nodded heavily and said, "These two people are really hateful, thank you brother for reminding me." ”
"It's okay, I just want Junior Brother Jiang to be more careful when facing these two people, although it is important to win the pearl, it is still important to take your life." Gao Jiulin took retreat as advance and said such a thing.
Jiang Ling asked quietly: "By the way, Brother Gao, I heard that the guards of the City Lord's Mansion will come out to wander around, and the people you see can get information from them, do you know how many guards in the City Lord's Mansion have a fixed time and travel route?" ”
Hearing this, Gao Jiulin lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I've only been here once, and I haven't found any fixed time and route for them. ”
Jiang Ling couldn't tell whether this was true or false, so he had to nod.
Gao Jiulin didn't know whether he noticed Jiang Ling's vigilance, or felt that there was nothing more to say, and just when he came to a fork in the road, Gao Jiulin arched his hand and said: "After all, it's our own battle, so I won't bother you much, let's say goodbye, I wish Jiang Xiaobrother can come out on top and achieve what he wants." ”
"Brother take care." Jiang Ling naturally responded politely.
Gao Jiulin took a step and turned left, but Jiang Ling did not stop, and continued to march straight ahead.
Although there was a sense of provocation in Gao Jiulin's words, it was not unreasonable, Fang Qiyi and Ding Haibo had a cold temperament and strong strength, so they really had to be guarded against.
Regarding the current situation, Jiang Ling still plans to fight steadily, not in a hurry to make a move in the early stage, and try not to let himself be targeted by others.
"At present, it is known that Huo Liang and Fang Qiyi each have a dragon ball, and the others are not known for the time being. The question is that if the Dragon Balls have been found by all players so far, will they still be able to get useful information if they encounter the Castle Lord's Mansion guards again? Jiang Ling muttered in his heart. He remembered that Cai Xiaomin's original words were "obtained information on the location of a dragon ball at that time", and the word "at that time" undoubtedly showed that the news was immediate. Moreover, after Jiang Ling got the Dragon Ball, he also felt that there was some kind of mental power package on this bead, like an invisible pocket, and it was the existence of this package that made it impossible for him to detect the location of the Dragon Ball with his mental power. "Well, in this way, this level of telekinesis not only has the effect of shielding, but also the role of identification and positioning, and the city lord's personal guard has a way to determine its current location. I don't know how well the City Lord's Mansion controls the whole city, whether it can only determine the general location of the Dragon Ball, or if it can be accurate to a certain person. ”
These can only wait for the actual encounter
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion could confirm it, Jiang Ling had doubts and continued to approach the City Lord's Mansion. Without knowing the travel time and route of the city lord's personal guards, Jiang Ling could only try his luck.
But when he arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Ling didn't see half a figure, and the entrance of the magnificent mansion was empty, only two stone lions were guarding here.
Jiang Ling stood quietly on the side of the street for a moment, and didn't see any movement in the City Lord's Mansion, he couldn't help muttering, "Just waiting here?" It's not impossible, and when the city lord's guards come out, you can ask for first-hand information. Even if he has already left the mansion at this time, but listening to Cai Xiaomin's intelligence, this city lord's personal guard will definitely come back after going out for a walk. ”
Jiang Ling didn't want to get involved in the robbery too early, so he found a hidden alley that could look directly at the gate of the city lord's mansion, and he was still thinking about when it would be more appropriate for him to make a move.
In less than two minutes, I didn't see the shadow of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, but I saw that a person was also close to the City Lord's Mansion, and at this time, he was fifty meters away from Jiang Ling.
Jiang Ling hid his breath and poked out half of his head to take a look.
With his current level of mental energy, he could only sense that someone was approaching, and if he wanted to detect the strength and general stature of the other party from a distance of fifty meters, he would need to concentrate his mental qi to scan, but it would be extremely easy for the other party to detect and expose himself. Therefore, Jiang Ling could only poke his head out to observe with the naked eye.
Moreover, when encountering a powerful master with keen perception, such a small wing can be said to be useless, because before Jiang Ling noticed the other party, he must have discovered Jiang Ling first.
"You may need to look for this detective and hidden class of mental qi cheats." Jiang Ling whispered in his heart, and at the same time saw the man's face.
That's a player, no doubt.
Because he had brownish-yellow hair, fair skin, a high nose, and thin lips. At first glance, he is an American, which is completely inconsistent with the physical characteristics of the Lingyuan Continent.
That person probably had the same idea as Jiang Ling, he cautiously scanned the surroundings, and also hid in an inconspicuous street corner, looking at the City Lord's Mansion from time to time.
This person Jiang Ling didn't know, and he probably hadn't fought in the past. Jiang Ling didn't relax his vigilance around him just because he was observing, and the invisible mental force field was still scattered, just to save consumption, Jiang Ling narrowed the range a bit, covering an area of twenty meters around.
Jiang Ling looked at himself on the premise of concealing himself - he was not carrying a weapon; There are no visible injuries or other signs of a fight; The face is vigilant, and the posture is ready to retreat at any time.
"Judging from the time, this person should be the same as me, he also got a dragon ball, and then came to the City Lord's Mansion to continue to inquire about the dragon ball. Of course, it is not ruled out that he has already obtained two dragon balls. ”
"I haven't fought anyone, and I shouldn't have revealed that I have Dragon Ball."
"Being so vigilant and cautious may be that you don't have confidence in your own strength, and you won't be very high in the standings. But it is not excluded that he is a natural character with caution. ”
Jiang Ling analyzed for a moment, and then muttered, "Why don't you rob it?" At least one Dragon Ball. ”
Then Jiang Ling thought of another point, the city lord's mansion guards would come out every hour, and the rule that a dragon ball information would be released was hidden. I learned it from Cai Xiaomin, and Cai Xiaomin bought it from the restaurant shopkeeper for money. And how did this player find out?
didn't wait for Jiang Ling to figure this out, but found a person walking over.
A man in a white robe, known as the White Plum Sword.
Jiang Ling leaned back slightly, and then noticed that a person was also slowly approaching, it was the old beggar.
