Chapter 11: The Dragon King of the Golden Lake (6)
When he woke up the next day, Yang Ji felt that the soreness in his right hand had been greatly weakened, similar to the effect of ordinary people suddenly exercising for three to five days, the okra snake bloodline was really good. Even if I ate so much raw meat last night, my stomach was not uncomfortable.
I went out to the vegetable market and bought a chicken, asked someone to boil water, scalded it, plucked it, cut it into small pieces, and brought it back to the room to enjoy it slowly.
Near lunchtime, someone from the Liu family sent food to the stone table in the courtyard, although he couldn't eat, Yang Ji still went out to have a look, there were more people at noon, and it was easy to find out the news.
Everyone was eating and drinking with their rice bowls, and Liu Xingan took the opportunity to speak: "Everyone, you might as well count how many companions are left around you!" Everyone subconsciously looked around at the number of people on the left and right, and Yang Ji also counted silently in his heart.
'One, two, three, four...... XVII, XVIII. There are only eighteen of them, and it seems that two of them died in yesterday's ambush, not with us, probably a lone newcomer. ’
"You're right, it's only eighteen! Two comrades have left us forever. Liu Xingan said with a serious face.
"Of course, it may also be trapped for a while and can't get out, or even lurking and wanting to be a fisherman! Let's not think too much about it first, our goal is the same, we are all to drive out the Dragon King of Jinhu and assist the Liu family to ascend to the throne! ”
"The reward is related to the number of people who survive in the end, and here, I advise you to be careful not to make meaningless sacrifices! At the same time, advertise, the Blood Wolves Gang ......"
Out of the corner of his eye, Yang Ji caught a glimpse of the cowboy man who had mocked last time, the look was obviously impatient, the corners of his mouth swallowed, and he wanted to interrupt again, but he couldn't bear it for some reason.
"I propose that everyone share information and conjectures, exchange what they have, check and fill in the gaps, so as not to do repeated useless work! I'll start with bricks and bricks. ended the advertisement, and found that everyone present was not interested in the Blood Wolf Gang, Liu Xingan did not wait, and continued to talk:
"Yesterday after lunch, I hired a guide with my companions...... That's all there is to it. I guess that after the Chen family's instructions to the Li family fail, they are likely to end up in person, so in the next few days, everyone should be more careful! ”
Everyone in the audience was a little disdainful, the Li family's attack was not enough, and the Chen family, which was also one of the four major families in the town, could not be much stronger no matter how strong it was.
"I added a few words," perhaps seeing that everyone on the field was unimpressed, the cowboy man said: "I met the Dragon Palace Spirit yesterday, and the Dragon Palace has probably been alarmed, so be more careful when exploring." ”
"Ordinary spirits include shrimp soldiers and crab soldiers, and most of them are equipped with wooden sticks, and the good ones use aquatic plants as armor. In groups of three or five, there is not much threat. ”
"The elite is much more powerful than ordinary spirits, and I have only met a shark general, armed with an iron triangular fork, dressed in coral armor, and thick-skinned. The head is hard to resist three consecutive point shots, and he is seriously injured but does not die, so pay more attention to you when you meet. “
"As for Ryuko, it's better for me to run for my life as soon as I meet him. This mission world is very problematic, the difficulty of Ryuko, Ryugu, etc. is obviously exceeded, and it shouldn't be one star! ”
Listening to the new information brought by the cowboy man, everyone on the field was talking, and the voice was slightly noisy. However, after discussing it for a long time, I have not considered any good solution, so I can only be careful.
Leaving the Liu family, Yang Ji was about to follow Liu Xing'an to continue exploring, but the white-clothed swordsman came up familiarly.
"What do you call a brother?" Dressed in white, bamboo hats, spotless, I can't see yesterday's embarrassment at all.
"Yang Ji."
"My name is Gu Yan, a native of Kyoto, and I have three suites at home!" Gu Yan proudly introduced his family situation, "I watched a movie with my girlfriend a month ago, and I arrived at this ghost place as soon as I got out of the movie theater, bad luck!" ”
"Be good at swords, learn good swordsmanship!" Swept the long sword in his hand, "I see that your physical fitness is quite strong, and you also have a dagger, why don't we form an alliance and help each other in this mission?" ”
"Okay." The two sides shook hands, and there was no hint of alliance in their minds, maybe the other side was not sincere about forming an alliance, but it was more likely that they couldn't get the certification props for the alliance.
"Yesterday we went to the west of the city, and the Li family's hospitality was quite warm. Liu Xing'an plans to go to the east of the city this time, why don't we continue and explore the west of the city well? ”
"Yes, but the Li family will probably hate us, which is a bit troublesome."
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, I remembered it yesterday, the road to Lijiazhuang is northern, let's explore in the southerly direction, and we won't meet the Li family!"
Yang Ji agreed to Gu Yan's proposal, and the two sides walked side by side, leaving a certain gap in the middle, after all, there is no basis for trust, and it is not a bad thing to be wary of each other.
……
Liu Rufeng also has his own study, and it is not quite correct to say that it is a study, the shelves are full of dust, and it can be seen that the owner has not put his mind on the books.
Steward Zhang in the Liu Mansion walked into the study and closed the door cautiously. After standing still for a moment, he slammed the door open to make sure that no one was snooping, and then he was relieved.
The study room is relatively simple, with a table, a stool, and a bookshelf. There was an ancient book upside down on the desk, and Steward Zhang leaned over to take a look, "The Complete Biography of Jigong", but it was a small talking book for pastime.
Pulling open the drawer of the table, I reached in and reached up, touched a button and turned it hard, and the ground under the table moved slowly, revealing a staircase!
Steward Zhang squatted down, got under the table, and slowly sank into the tunnel, and with the light that came in, he turned a wheel on the side of the wall to close the entrance.
In the dark, I felt the walls and walked all the way. The tunnel leads to the Liu family's manor in the west of the city, ostensibly a place for Liu Rufeng to spend his time, and he goes there two or three times a week. Some people in the town speculated that this was the place where Liu Rufeng Jin harbored Jiaojiao, but Steward Zhang knew that this place was used for other purposes.
I don't know how long I walked, maybe it was an hour, or two, and there were bursts of training slogans in the distance. Crawling out of the tunnel, there is a screen with the word "Shen Du" inscribed.
After going out, there is a school field, more than 20 people are trained in armor, unified guns, and the formation is stable. Not far away, there were more than a dozen people practicing bows and arrows, and the sound of hitting the target came and went.
Steward Zhang trotted to the shade of the tree on the side, "Master Liu, the eldest master asked you to go to greet Heavenly Master Luo." ”
"Luo Tianshi? Hmph, jumping clown! If it hadn't been for our Liu family, he would have been beaten to death a long time ago! Now that he has hugged the thigh of Liuyunguan, he has gone to Donghong to be a caretaker, and he dares to call himself a heavenly master! ”
Steward Zhang turned a deaf ear to Liu Rufeng's ridicule.
"Maybe people are developed now, and they can't help but give face." Liu Rufeng stood up from the rocking chair, walked straight to the school field, and instructed a person who was obviously the head of the school:
"Practice a little less in the past two days, the key is to maintain physical fitness and discipline, and there will be a big action during the Dragon King Festival!"
"Yes!"
Liu Rufeng nodded with satisfaction and left the manor with Steward Zhang.
