Chapter 283: Timely Rain Mercenary Group
The territory of each empire in the second order is as large as the two domains of the first day order, but although the land is large, the number of inhabitants is not as large as the people in the two domains of the first day rank combined, so although the cities in the empire are very prosperous, there are also many places that are rarely inhabited.
Just like where Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei are now, although the news of encountering the purging wind in the woods east of Gu Yu City should not be wrong, but in the east of Gu Yu City, the area of the forest is a little unbelievably large.
Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei have been wandering around this forest for almost three days, not to mention the person who found the clear wind, and they haven't even encountered a single figure...... On the contrary, he encountered many attacks from spirit beasts.
The spirit beast that lives in the second day is naturally much more powerful than the first day order, if it encounters such a wild attack by a spirit beast in the first day order, with the strength of the two of them, it can be solved with a wave of the hand, but the second day is different, the most ordinary spirit beast here can be put on the first day level, and it can also fight with a fifth-order master for several rounds, and if it encounters a stronger one, it can destroy the fifth-level master......
These days, Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei have also suffered a lot, but fortunately, neither of them is an ordinary first-day master, and they can still solve the trouble with some effort, and the two of them are also fully prepared before they come out, so even if they encounter a lot of trouble, they also suffer a lot, but the two of them are basically fine.
"Take a break. ”
It was dark again, and the two of them found a place to spend the night under a tree.
Chen Feifei took out the dry firewood he had bought in Guyu City in advance from the space bracelet, and then lit the dry firewood with a flint and steel.
Looking at the fire on the ground, Lu Shuangyang looked up at the night sky and whispered, "I hope it won't rain tonight......"
The first few nights, there was a light rain at night, and the fire was always extinguished.
"You go and rest first, I'll watch here first. Chen Feifei said to Lu Shuangyang.
Lu Shuangyang shook his head: "I'm not sleepy yet. ”
"Since you're not tired, do you have any wine, let's have some wine together?" Chen Feifei looked at Lu Shuangyang with a smile.
Lu Shuangyang rolled his eyes, took out a water hyacinth from the space bracelet and threw it to Chen Feifei.
Chen Feifei took the water hyacinth, immediately opened the gourd and drank it, after taking a sip, Chen Feifei's face changed slightly, and he said dissatisfiedly: "What, this is obviously tea, where is the wine." ”
Lu Shuangyang said leisurely: "I won't drink with you again!"
Twice, twice in a row, Chen Feifei got drunk immediately after drinking...... With this amount of alcohol, I am embarrassed to say that I drink, and I have to find a place for Shuangyang to settle him twice...... After Lu Shuangyang drank with Chen Feifei for the second time, he vowed never to drink with this guy who couldn't drink again!
"Oops, the previous ones were all accidents!" Chen Feifei looked at Lu Shuangyang seriously.
"If you don't give, you don't give. Lu Shuangyang righteously refused.
"Cut, stingy. Chen Feifei had no choice but to drink tea obediently.
Lu Shuangyang looked at the night sky, and after so many days on the second step, it was the first time he had looked at the night sky seriously.
"Although the sky here is no longer the sky of the first day step, it seems that the difference is not very big...... Lu Shuangyang sighed, he used to travel on the first day step, he always looked at the sky, thinking about whether the family members in different places under the same sky were okay, but now that they have come to the second day level, they are no longer a different sky from them, I don't know if the family members under the other sky are okay?
"It's not a different sky, although it's separated by the sky and the sea, it's still the same sky!" Chen Feifei heard Lu Shuangyang's self-talk.
"The same sky, what do you mean?" Lu Shuangyang didn't understand what Chen Feifei meant.
Chen Feifei explained: "Actually, the night sky scene of the first day step is the light of the night sky scene of the second day stage, which passes through the sky and the sea and shines on the first day stage. ”
"Huh?" Lu Shuangyang looked at Chen Feifei in disbelief.
"Originally, there was no light in the heavenly sea, although it looked like a sky on the first day, but it was actually a sea layer, so naturally there was no light, and the night light seen on the first day level was the light on the night sky on the second day that penetrated the sky and shone to the first day level. Chen Feifei explained.
"I see...... Lu Shuangyang smiled slightly, "It turns out that we are still under the same sky!"
Although he is far away from his hometown, he is still under the same sky, and thinking about it this way, Lu Shuangyang's mood is also much more comfortable.
"Speaking of which, how much food do we have left?" Lu Shuangyang suddenly asked a very practical question, after all, although they are not weak Xuanta cultivators, they still have to eat, drink and Lazar, before entering here, they prepared a lot of food, but these days, maybe because they thought they were too well prepared, so they were not very restrained when they used it, after all, they thought that they would soon find the relevant clues. But so many days have passed, and there is no clue at all, so Lu Shuangyang already feels that it is not as easy to find clues here as he imagined, and he must be prepared for a long-term search.
"Hmm......" Chen Feifei sensed the things in his spatial bracelet and said, "The things I have here, if we use them before, should be enough for us to eat for five days." ”
Lu Shuangyang also sensed his space bracelet and said, "If I am here, it should last for three days." ”
"This can't be done!" Lu Shuangyang said, "We must reduce the amount used, we must reduce it." ”
"I think so, too. Chen Feifei also has the same idea as Lu Shuangyang.
"For the next few days, as long as we don't really need to, we don't eat indiscriminately. Lu Shuangyang said what he thought.
"I'm fine. "Although he usually has enough food and clothing, sometimes during retreat, Chen Feifei does not eat for several days.
"Hopefully, we'll find clues to the winds before we run out of supplies. "Road Shuangyang Road.
"It's hard to say, if you don't find it, you can only go back to the city before you come out. ”
"Speaking of which, isn't your Xuan Qi perception not very strong, can't you just use your Xuan Qi perception to search for a wide area?" Chen Feifei thought of such an idea.
Lu Shuangyang smiled helplessly: "Why didn't I think of this? However, the density of Xuan Qi in the air of the second and first days was very different, and now in the second and second steps, the range that my Xuan Qi perception could perceive was much smaller than in the first day level. ”
Chen Feifei asked, "How small is it?"
Lu Shuangyang looked around, then pointed to a bush ten meters away and said, "If there is a person hiding there, I don't know." ”
"That's ......"
"Rustling ......"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the bush moved slightly, making a slight sound.
"Who?"
Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei immediately became vigilant, because they could not determine the strength of their opponents, they were also very nervous.
"Sand ......"
A middle-aged man came out of the bushes, and the middle-aged man looked at Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei, and said with a little surprise: "I didn't expect to meet people here." ”
"I'll just say, it must be a human, it can't be a spirit animal. "Another man came out of the bushes, a little short and stocky.
"This is indeed an accident, after all, we haven't seen anyone other than us for more than ten days. "A third guy came out, and this guy was a little skinny.
"The cultivation of the three people has reached the peak of the sixth layer...... "Because they were slightly closer, Lu Shuangyang had already sensed the fluctuations of the Xuan Qi emanating from the three of them.
"Who are you?" Chen Feifei saw that the three of them were wearing simple armor, so he thought they were soldiers, and if they were soldiers, could they be sent by the second prince of the Qiyun Empire?
"Don't be nervous, young man!" The middle-aged man at the head smiled kindly, "We are from the mercenary group." ”
"Mercenary group?" Lu Shuangyang was stunned, "Which mercenary group." ”
"Timely Rain Mercenary Group, have you heard of it?" said the mercenary who was a little short and chubby next to him.
"Oh! Timely Rain Mercenary Group!" Chen Feifei also instantly let down his vigilance, he had also heard about the Timely Rain Mercenary Group, because the Timely Rain Mercenary Group was very famous in the area of Guyu City, and it could be said that it was the largest mercenary group in this area, and the Timely Rain Mercenary Group often helped some people in difficulty, so it was very popular among ordinary people.
Lu Shuangyang didn't let his guard down as quickly as Chen Feifei, he asked, "I don't know why the people from the Timely Rain Mercenary Group are here?"
The middle-aged man at the head said: "We are hunting spirit beasts here, and the spirit beasts in this area have been attacking people passing by recently, so our mercenary group wants to do something to see if it can help." ”
The spirit beasts in this area are indeed always attacking people, which Lu Shuangyang thought that this area had always been like this, but he didn't expect it to be an abnormal phenomenon.
"Okay, you don't have to be so vigilant!" Chen Feifei patted Lu Shuangyang, "I've heard that the people in the Timely Rain Mercenary Group are all good people. ”
"It's just heard......" Lu Shuangyang said in a low voice.
"Little brother is right to be cautious. The middle-aged man smiled and said, "After all, it's better to be cautious in the wilderness here." ”
"It's okay, this guy is like that, I hope you don't mind. Chen Feifei said politely.
The middle-aged man at the head said, "I am the second head of the Timely Rain Mercenary Group, Wu Liangchao. ”
The short and chubby man on the side said, "I am an ordinary member of the Timely Rain Mercenary Group, called Zhou Qiuwen. ”
"Xu Long. The man who was a little skinny said his name directly.
"My name is Chen Feifei," Chen Feifei said his name first.
"My name is Yue Feiyang!" Chen Feifei originally wanted to help Lu Shuangyang introduce him, but Lu Shuangyang rushed to say it in front of him.
"Yue Feiyang...... Chen Feifei silently read the name in his heart, thinking to himself that your name is obviously Lu Shuangyang, how did you become Yue Feiyang.
However, Chen Feifei is not a messy person, since Lu Shuangyang doesn't want to say his real name, then cooperate with him.
"Yes, the more flying. Chen Feifei said.
"Extraordinary, flying, the names of the two are really ...... How can you say it, it's really domineering!" Zhou Qiuwen said.
"I think so too. Xu Long said.
Wu Liangchao smiled and said, "The two of you don't know what happened in this wood? After all, everyone knows about the recent attack on people by spirit beasts here. ”
Chen Feifei didn't speak, and left the right to speak to Lu Shuangyang, after all, he chose to use a fake name, then he should have his own plans.
Lu Shuangyang said, "We came to Guyu City for the first time and wanted to get familiar with the surrounding environment. ”
"Well, you two better go back early, this area is very dangerous, if there is nothing important, you two better go back quickly." Zhou Qiuwen was also worried that something would happen to the two, so he kindly persuaded him.
"That's right. Xu Long on the side said lightly.
Lu Shuangyang suddenly looked at the three members of the mercenary group with an expectant look: "Since you are from the Timely Rain Mercenary Group, can you take us around to take a look." ”
"Huh?" Chen Feifei didn't understand why Lu Shuangyang suddenly made such a request.
"It's not very good...... Zhou Qiuwen said, "After all, we are here to hunt spirit beasts, and the strength of spirit beasts here is also quite strong, if we encounter any danger, we may not be able to take care of you." ”
"That's right. Xu Longfu and Dao.
"I think so. Just when the other two disagreed, Wu Liangchao agreed.
"Alas!" Zhou Qiuwen was a little surprised, "Are you sure?"
Wu Liangchao said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just to bring two more people, and besides, if the two of them dare to come to such a place like this, their strength must not be weak, and they have made certain preparations." ”
"Everywhere, our stock of food is almost depleted. ”
Although Lu Shuangyang showed a helpless expression on his face, he was very surprised in his heart, obviously he had just met, this Wu Liangchao was able to roughly judge their situation, it is conceivable that this Wu Liangchao is still very thoughtful.
"Now that it's decided, let's go, our base camp is ahead. Saying that, the three members of the mercenary group took the lead and walked out, and Wu Liangchao immediately turned his head and reminded after taking a step, "Remember to clean up your fire, so as not to let some intelligent spirit beasts pass by and find out." ”
This Wu Liangchao is really an excellent mercenary, this remembers to remind people.
Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei also quickly packed up their things and followed.
After following the three of them for some distance, they came to a relatively open space, where there were seven or eight other people dressed as mercenaries gathered around a large fire, and there were five or six tents next to it.
"Alas, Brother Chao is back!"
"Brother Chao, have you found anything?"
"Well? Oh, there were two young men. ”
"It's really messy to be here with such a young man. ”
"Guys, listen to me!" Wu Liang said loudly, "This is the little brother Yue Feiyang, this is the little brother Chen Feifei, the two of them will act with us in the next few days, I hope you can take care of them." ”
"Okay, since Brother Chao said it, we will definitely take good care of it. ”
"Don't worry, with me, these two boys will be fine. ”
"What Brother Chao said, I will definitely carry it out to the end!"
Looking at everyone's reactions, Lu Shuangyang also understood in his heart that Wu Liangchao was worthy of being the leader of this group, his prestige was really high, he said that he wanted everyone to take care of Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei, and he didn't even elaborate on the reason, so these people agreed one after another.
"You two," Wu Liangchao looked back at Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifei, "You two must be tired, let's go to my tent and rest first." ”
"Okay, thank you, senior. Lu Shuangyang was also not polite, and got into the tent that Wu Liangchao pointed out, and Chen Feifei quickly followed.
In the second half of the night, the rest of the mercenary group went, leaving only Wu Liangchao and Zhou Qiuwen to keep vigil by the fire.
"Hey, hey......" Chen Feifei didn't sleep, he gently patted Lu Shuangyang, who was lying next to him, and whispered, "I know your kid hasn't fallen asleep yet." ”
"What's the matter?" Lu Shuangyang said in a low voice.
Chen Feifei asked in a low voice, "Why do you say that your name is Yue Feiyang!
"I'm worried about that second prince," Lu Shuangyang whispered, "That second prince knows who you are, but because your Chen family has a big business, he won't trouble the Chen family, but my Lu family is different, if my true identity is known by him, our Lu family will be in big trouble." Although the people of this mercenary group are quite kind, just in case, let's use a fake name. ”
"That's understandable, but why are you here?" Chen Feifei asked again, "Didn't you say that you were going to find out the news of the purging wind? After coming to this mercenary group, the action will follow them, how can we go to find out the news." ”
Lu Shuangyang smiled confidently: "I just told you the clue of using the purging wind in the woods east of Gu Yucheng before, but I didn't tell you specifically. ”
"So does this specific situation have anything to do with your choice to follow the Timely Rain Mercenary Group?" Chen Feifei was puzzled.
Lu Shuangyang said: "The full content of that information is that when the Timely Rain Mercenary Group was hunting spirit beasts in the eastern woods, they encountered a powerful spirit beast, and the mercenary group was difficult to deal with, just when the mercenary group was about to be wiped out, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and several people suddenly appeared in front of them, and they beat the spirit beast away and saved a group of people from the mercenary group." ”
"You mean, the person who encountered the purging wind is the person from the Timely Rain Mercenary Regiment?" Chen Feifei also understood.
"Hmm. Lu Shuangyang nodded, "Although it is not explicitly said that the group of people is the Wind of Purge, their appearance is the same as the way that the Wind of Cleansing appeared in the Great War a few years ago. Therefore, everyone thinks that the one who saved the Timely Rain Mercenary Group is the wind of purge. ”
"Do you think that the people who purge the wind are actually around here, but they don't show up easily, but they are concerned about this spirit beast's attack on people, if this timely rain mercenary group encounters any trouble, they should take action, right?" Chen Feifei also understood Lu Shuangyang's purpose.
Lu Shuangyang said: "This is just my speculation, but I think this is very likely......"
