Chapter 8: Confidential Conversations

Hearing Wang Hefeng's muttering, Gu Huaqing stared at him with a pair of eyes, as if he wanted to see something from his expression.

Wang Hefeng noticed Gu Huaqing's changes, and hurriedly said, "I heard from one of my subordinates a few days ago that the people of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group found traces of the magic vine when they went to the back mountain of Gujia Village to collect medicine. ”

"What is the origin of this iron-blooded mercenary group?" Gu Huaqing asked after hearing this.

Wang Hefeng pondered for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "The Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group was established in the last two years, and there are a total of eight masters in the group, the head of the regiment is called Cui Zheng, the strength of the martial artist Five Heavens, and the rest are all martial arts Four Heavens. Many people in the town know that their mercenary group once took on the task of hunting ironback cattle, and completed the task perfectly, and no one was injured. ”

Wang Hefeng is in the underground business, and he also attaches great importance to intelligence, and he has a special manpower to collect intelligence, and there is basically nothing he doesn't know. This is also why Gu Huaqing came to him.

"Oh, they went to the back mountain of Gujia Village to collect medicine? I don't know what precious medicine we have for him in that little pimple area. Gu Huaqing felt that he had found something strange and said.

Wang Hefeng felt that Gu Huaqing's tone was starting to become sharper, so he asked cautiously: "Brother Huaqing, could it be that you met the demon vine in the back mountain, what trouble did you encounter?" Gu Huaqing had been circling around this question about the demon vine, and he expressed his doubts.

Gu Huaqing held back his glance and quipped, "Aren't you a jack of all trades?" ”

Wang Hefeng smiled and said, "Brother Huaqing, don't squeeze me, I'm more proficient in gossip at most, how can I have such magical powers, don't you say, hehe." ”

Gu Huaqing chuckled lightly after hearing this, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said slowly: "Chen'er met the demon vine in the back mountain, it seems to be a premeditated plan, so I came to you this time to ask about it." ”

Wang Hefeng's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "What? Brother Huaqing, you have a child?

Seeing his reaction, Gu Huaqing nodded and said, "I've been staying in Gujia Village for more than ten years, and I haven't gone anywhere, it seems that you don't know much about this gossip." ”

Wang Hefeng patted his thigh hatefully, he had been looking for a job in the rest of the region all these years, because he had spent a lot of money to find out the news that someone had heard of the name Gu Huaqing in Xuanwu City, so he never thought that Gu Huaqing would return to Gujia Village. In fact, ten years ago, Gu Huaqing suddenly returned to the village with his wife and children, and deliberately asked the people in the village to keep quiet, and over the years, Gu Huaqing has also taken Gu Chen to Qingshui Town several times, and each time he returned to the village after buying things, without staying too much.

"Brother Huaqing, you have been by my side for the past ten years, I haven't paid attention, I really ······" Wang He fanned his face and said.

But to get back to the point, Wang Hefeng seemed to notice that someone was going to deal with Gu Chen, Wang Hefeng made a gesture of raising and dropping his hand, and asked, "Since this is the case, do you want me?"

"You can't startle the snake, you help me find out who the iron-blooded mercenary group has been in contact with in the past few days, and also, find someone to keep an eye on them for me, if you have any news, come to Gujia Village to tell me." Hearing that Wang Hefeng wanted to deal with the people of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, he hurriedly interrupted him and said.

"Can you find the person who posted the task?" Gu Huaqing added, thinking that if the person who posted the task could be found, then the truth of the matter would soon surface.

Wang Hefeng shook his head and said: "The mercenary union will not disclose any information about the employer, even if it is an insider, it will strictly abide by the confidentiality of the work, if you start in this regard, I am afraid it will be in vain." ”

For these people in the mercenary union, Gu Huaqing also dealt with them in the early years, and knew that they had stayed on this continent for thousands of years because they had done a good job of keeping the mission secret, and because of this, they could continue to develop like this for a long time and become one of the giants in the world.

"Okay, I still have something to do, I'll go first, remember to notify me as soon as there is any news, don't be surprised. Gu Huaqing deliberately admonished, and then, he took out a bag from his baggage, threw it to Wang Hefeng, and said, "Help me check this person, don't tell anyone about the matter I came to you today." ”

Wang Hefeng took the bag, put it in his arms, and said, "I know Brother Huaqing." ”

Gu Huaqing left the grocery store, and now he has to do another thing, which is to get that thing back!

-----------------------

Qingshui Town, the second floor of Xianghe Restaurant.

Cui Zhengzheng, the leader of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, was talking to the people opposite, looking at the posture, the two seemed to be plotting something.

Cui is a sturdy middle-aged man, with a standard Chinese face and a shiny head, giving people a fierce feeling, and Cui is eating the dishes on the plate unhurriedly at this time. He knew that the other party came to him this time, and it was not a simple greeting.

"Head Cui, this is my gift to you, a small gift, not a tribute. Gu Laixi narrowed his eyes and said flatteringly. After Gu Laixi's fat face smiled, his entire facial features were distorted together, and he looked very happy. I saw him take out a box and hand it to Cui Zheng.

Cui Zheng quietly took a look, opened it, and found that it was a bright red spirit fruit. This is the Blood Spirit Fruit, which can be improved to a small realm for all martial artists below and above the Martial Arts, and it is a rare treasure, which is worth a thousand gold coins on the market, which is very expensive.

Cui Zheng saw his sincerity, nodded meticulously, and said: "Brother Gu, Ming people don't say secret words, just say anything directly, don't beat around the bush." ”

When Gu Laixi heard what he said, his eyes narrowed even smaller, and he flattered: "This is actually a little thank you to Captain Cui for helping me find the magic vine spores last time, in fact, I did have something to ask you for help this time, and after the matter is completed, I will thank you again." ”

Last time, Gu Laixi secretly wrote a letter to Cui Zheng, and he heard that Cui Zheng had found traces of the magic vine in the back mountain of Gujia Village, so the two reached a deal. Although the plan failed, Gu Laixi did not want to give up this "partner," unlike other mercenaries, Cui is the master who does things with money, and it is very easy to settle.

Cui Zheng's eyes lit up, he got such a spiritual fruit after a small favor last time, if he continued to help him, maybe he could be promoted to the Martial Artist Seventh Heaven. Thinking of this, Cui Zheng's eyes were hot, and he immediately said: "No problem, Brother Gu, as long as I can do it, you can just say it." For a person like Cui Zheng who sees money, Gu Laixi has a hundred ways to get him to agree.

secretly despised Cui Zheng in his heart, but he still smiled on the surface: "Actually, it's not a big deal, for Brother Cui, it's easy, it's nothing more than asking you to help me clean up someone." Gu Laixi changed the title of head Cui to Brother Cui, which invisibly brought the relationship between the two closer, and I have to sigh that Gu Laixi is sleek.

"Oh, someone actually offended Brother Gu, so I can't sit idly by. What is the origin of this man? Cui Zheng asked.

"Actually, it's not a very powerful character, that is, my son's enemy Gu Chen, the strength of the martial artist Sanzhongtian. ”

"Such a little person, Brother Gu, should be able to solve it easily. Besides, as far as I know, your son is still a fourteen-year-old child, and his enemy should also be a child, right?" Although Cui Zheng loves money, he is not stupid, and he heard Ni Duan.

"You know, it's not easy to start with a village, and I just asked you to clean him up, and you also know that in a week there will be a trial competition, and my son needs a place, so ······" Gu Laixi hurriedly explained.

Cui Zheng looked at Gu Laixi with disdain in his eyes, he didn't expect this product to let me deal with a child, but thinking of his reward, he still planned to take over this task, so he said: "Okay, I took this matter, I hope we will always be friends and cooperate happily." Cui Zheng stretched out his hand and said.

Gu Laixi also stretched out his hand to shake him, and said, "Happy cooperation!" The two looked at each other and smiled.

Gu Chen, who didn't know anything about this, was still practicing the sword drawing technique, and for a whole afternoon, he had played the basic boxing technique for half an hour, and the rest of the time was all about practicing the sword drawing technique. With the assistance of the Sword Seal Space, Gu Chen was finally able to take out his sword seven times in the evening in one afternoon. For such an achievement, Gu Chen nodded with satisfaction.

He knew that there were still more than six days to go, and in addition to his cultivation, he still needed to experience more actual combat experience, so he had a bold idea: to go hunting in the back mountains alone. Because of the sword drawing technique, his confidence is also sufficient, as long as he does not encounter too strong beasts, he is confident that he can retreat with his whole body.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, it turns out that you are here, Uncle Liren asked me to come to you and let you go to his place, I heard that there is something to tell you. Erdan ran from a distance and said breathlessly.

"Second Uncle has something to look for me? Okay, I'll go over right away. Gu Chen looked at the sky and knew that today's cultivation was almost over, so he put the branch on his waist and went to Gu Li's house.
