Chapter 267: Recruitment
"Hmph—" The horse snapped its nose and let the road come back to its senses.
"Hey, what do you want to do so much, isn't it because he has potential that he can't see through?" Lu Chaotian shook his head with a smile and walked back to the house with an empty wine jug.
"Yo, this horse is really finished!" The big man who was teasing just now said with a smile when he saw the empty pot in Lu Chaotian's hand.
"Zhao Er, this is what you haven't seen, why don't you go to Yanxi like this?" There was a person on the side laughing and scolding.
"Guo Donggua, why do you have an opinion?"
The two sat at different tables, but apparently knew each other.
That Guo Donggua, I'm afraid it's also a nickname, because when Qianmo looked at them, the person was as his name suggested, short and round.
"Don't you know that the horses in the land of Yanxi are all drunk with spirits? When the horse goes to war, if you drink such a pot, it will be enough for you to drink a pot. ”
Zhao Er didn't care when he was despised and laughed, and then turned his head to compliment this Guo Donggua: "You winter melon has been mixed in Yanxi for all these years, it seems that it is really not in vain!" ”
"That's ......" Guo Donggua was a little proud, especially when he saw the envious gazes of many people throwing at him, his chin was raised even higher.
"Winter melon, since you are so familiar with Yanxi, you must be very clear about the recruitment of King Rong, right? Let's talk to my brothers! As soon as Zhao Er's words came out, many people turned sideways slightly or pricked up their ears.
"This ......" Guo Donggua grabbed the peanuts on the table and threw them at Zhao Er, "Okay, you Zhao Er!" ”
Zhao Er caught the peanuts thrown over with one mouth, and deliberately bit them a few times: "Fragrant!" ”
"Hahaha......" Everyone laughed out loud when they saw this, this Zhao Er is a slippery head.
However, Guo Donggua is not stingy, anyway, this matter is not a secret. It's just because I happened to come from Yanxi that the news was faster and more detailed.
"Yes, I will talk to you about it today." Guo Donggua simply sat down on the table, "If you want to say that this King of Rongrong, since a stunned young man appeared out of thin air and robbed him of the lord's position, this heart has always been unconvinced." ”
"Guo Donggua, say something that everyone doesn't know." Someone handed over a pot of wine and got a smiling face from Guo Donggua.
"Didn't I give you the background?" Guo Donggua took a sip of wine and continued, "Then let me ask you a question, Nine Secluded Swamp, do you know?" ”
As soon as this question came out, some people frowned, and some people were curious.
"Look, there's something you don't know." Guo Donggua saw that no one interrupted him this time, so the old god said, "It is said that this Nine Secluded Swamp is the most mysterious place in Yanxi, it is shrouded in dense fog all the year round, and the land under his feet is full of bottomless swamps, and there are not 100,000 people who have gone in for a hundred years, but I don't know if there are nine who can come out." ”
"What's hidden in there? Why do you want to go? ”
"Good question!" Guo Donggua snapped his fingers, raised his head and poured another sip of wine, "Legend has it that there is a powerful secret hidden in the Nine Shadows Swamp that can dominate the Nine Shadows, as for what this secret is, only one person knows it among the living people in this world. ”
"Who is it?"
Everyone looked at Guo Donggua curiously, and Qian Mo listened to a cold figure flashing in their minds.
"Yanxi Great Witch!"
"Is that the witch god of Yanxi?"
"Not bad! For hundreds of years, only three people came out of the swamp and came back alive. This witch is the only one alive. ”
"Hey, that's not right, why didn't the Great Witch rule Yanxi?"
Guo Donggua shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't know: "I don't know why the big witch didn't become a lord, but I know that King Yirong definitely wants to be." ”
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized: "Then this King of Qirong wants to get something from the Nine Shadows Swamp that can rule Yanxi?" ”
"Not bad!" Guo Donggua drank the last sip of wine and smacked his lips. Someone immediately handed him another pot of wine, which made him speak more energetically, "It's not that I haven't mixed up much in these years, but I have made a lot of friends." There was a buddy who was on an errand in the palace of King Qirong, and he revealed the news that three months ago, Lord Yanxi took the map of the Nine Swamps and changed a person from King Qirong. ”
"There is a map in the Nine Swamps?" Many people's eyes lit up now.
Guo Donggua glanced at those people: "What if you have a map, it is said that once you step into the swamp, you can't even see your fingers in front of you, do you still expect to see the map clearly?" ”
"Then you can memorize it......" someone muttered, "ouch! ”
A tall man next to him nailed him: "Who do you think you are, and you still want to get the map?" ”
Guo Donggua waved his hand, ignoring the little Jiujiu in their hearts, who do these people think they are, and where only three people have come out for hundreds of years, how can it be a wasted place. But he didn't plan to go anyway, and as for the others to seek death, he wouldn't care. He knows very well that the people who release the wolf light, even if they are good at persuasion, will be regarded by them as blocking people's financial paths.
"Hey, why didn't Brother Guo say it?" Someone saw that Guo Donggua sneered and stopped talking, and squeezed up again.
Guo Donggua wiped his lips, and the heat just now was a little less: "King Qirong got the map, so naturally he wanted to enter the Nine Shadows even more." It's just that he is not a fool, he knows that the place is not easy to enter, so he gathers people with lofty ideals and talented people to explore the nine hells together. ”
"Hell" is indeed the name of the Yanxi people for the Nine Secluded Swamp, and as its name suggests, it is a region that eats people and does not spit out bones. Guo Donggua shook his head at those who were scolded as fools and still had a on their faces, and reminded himself that this is also a matter of accumulating virtue, and it would be fools if they didn't listen to it.
"Hey, Brother Guo, tell me more!"
"Say what?"
"That'...... So where is the recruitment of King Rong? Someone couldn't help but ask, and other interested people also pricked up their ears.
"The Royal Court of the Castle"
"Guo Donggua, they still want people, right?" Zhao Er also came over at this time, with a flattering look on his face.
Guo Donggua turned his head to look at this man who had dealt with him a few times: "You want to go too?" ”
Zhao Er was surprised by his surprise and the sunshine with deep meaning, and he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted: "Cough...... Oh, buddy, aren't you curious to ask, just ask, ask. ”
Guo Donggua glanced at him deeply: "King Qirong didn't dare to enter for several months after getting the map, and he has been making preparations. He would wait until the solstice day to go in. I heard that it was the thinnest fog of the Nine Shadows Swamp at that time. After saying that, he raised his head and drank the wine in the jug, and then fell asleep on the table.
"The Day of the Solstice...... Ay! Zhao Er was about to ask, but found that the dwarf winter melon was already lying on the table and snoring. As soon as everyone saw this posture, they also returned to their seats and whispered to the people around them.
Qian Scarlet Moon glanced at them, and their hearts were clear, it seems that this King of Qirong will also enter on the winter solstice.
The snow was falling silently outside the store, and the store was slowly quieting. Many of them had already slept with their eyes squinted against the table or the wall, and some were still whispering excitedly, but their hearts had already flown out of the inn.
