Jian Yunlong didn't notice Guo Xiaoshi's gaze, and continued to ask, "Brother Xiaoshi, shouldn't you be in the city?" How did it end up here? ”
Guo Xiaoshi said very calmly: "I was originally in the city, but later I saw that the inner city was broken, so I escaped. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 After a slight pause, he asked curiously: "How can the inner city be broken?" ”
The inner city walls are taller and thicker than the outer city, and it seems that even if they are bombarded with heavy artillery, they cannot be broken in a moment, not to mention that there are enough batteries at the head of the inner city, covering a large area, and the rebels' heavy artillery will be attacked by carpet fire as long as they show their heads, and it is impossible for the rebels to enter the inner city so easily.
Jian Yunlong thought for a while, sighed lightly and said, "Okay, Brother Xiaoshi, I won't hide it from you, this time the inner city was destroyed because there were traitors in the City Lord's Mansion. As he spoke, a hint of ferocity flashed on his face: "Cheng Zhongyi, the head of the City Lord's Mansion, colluded with the rebels, and took advantage of the change of guard of the city defense army to open the city gate and let the rebels enter the city, killing so many brothers of the city defense army. ”
The head of the City Lord's Mansion, who should be regarded as the confidant of the City Lord Jian Zhifang, was betrayed by such a person, no wonder the inner city was broken all of a sudden.
Guo Xiaoshi couldn't help but think of a sentence he had heard in his life on Earth: The strongest fortresses are often breached from the inside. This is simply a portrayal of Jian Yongcheng now.
Jian Yunlong continued to say angrily: "When we leave here safely, we must ask for his head with a high forehead, so that he will not be safe in the bedroom in the future." ”
Guo Xiaoshi didn't respond when he heard this, Jian Yongcheng has changed hands, and he is still hanging red, at most he can only vent his anger. He thought for a moment and asked, "How is Chief Ling?" ”
When Jian Yunlong heard this, his previous attitude of bursting with fire suddenly became discouraged, and he sighed lightly and replied: "When the city is broken, Ling ...... In order to cover our escape, Uncle Ling led people to lure the pursuing enemies away, and I don't know what happened now. ”
Guo Xiaoshi didn't actually want to ask Ling Shaochen, but took advantage of this to open up the conversation, and said, "Chief Jian, I don't know if you can tell me the truth, how happened to the Han Roll who was with me before?" ”
Jian Yunlong was stunned for a moment and then said, "Brother Xiaoshi, they are all gone, just when you agreed to take over the task, Uncle Ling released them all. After a slight pause, Jian Yunlong said in a very sincere tone: "Brother Xiaoshi, let me tell you the truth, if you were unwilling to take over the task at that time, Uncle Ling was ready to detain you, because you can't let you tell the outside world about Jian Yongcheng, otherwise no one will be willing to come to Jian Yongcheng again." However, not long after you agreed to take over the task, Uncle Ling had already asked Han Luo and them to sign a confidentiality agreement and let them go. ”
Jian Yunlong didn't lie to Guo Xiaoshi, but there was still something to say, another reason why Ling Shaochen was willing to let go of Han Rong and the others was that he saw Guo Xiaoshi's performance in the mission, and he was also worried that Guo Xiaoshi really had any origins.
Hearing Jian Yunlong say this, Guo Xiaoshi's heart suddenly let go of one thing.
In his short career with the Scythe, he learned a lot and gained a lot, the most important of which was his comrades. Although Han Rong and the others had little to do with him, after all, they had gone through life and death together, and when he heard that they were fine, his heart couldn't help but feel a lot easier.
After a moment of silence, Guo Xiaoshi spoke: "Since this is the case, I want to get off in front." The place I'm going to is the city of Gree, which was supposed to go the other way. ”
Jian Yunlong was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Guo Xiaoshi to say this, he was a little overwhelmed for a while, and couldn't help but look up at the old man driving in front of him.
The old man had been driving silently without speaking, and when he heard Guo Xiaoshi's "request" to get out of the car, he finally spoke: "Little brother, let's do it, since you are the mercenary we invited to Jian Yongcheng, then I will give you one more task, how about I hire you to escort us to the border between Jian Yongcheng and Aoyu City?" ”
"Huh?"
Guo Xiaoshi was stunned and did not answer.
The old man acted directly and simply, casually threw out a small golden card of unknown metal, and said: "Little brother, this is the crystal card of the Tianyu Golden Bank of the Dayu Empire, which is popular in all directions, and there are 100,000 crystal coins in it, as long as you are willing to take on this task, it is yours." ”
Guo Xiaoshi took the small card and looked back and forth. The ornament on this small card is very beautiful, and there are four big characters on it - Tianyu Jinxing, which should be what the old man said "Dayu Empire Tianyu Jinxing" is right.
While watching, his heart was like lightning: Jian Yongcheng and Aoyu City border, and there is a distance of two days and two nights between the two, this distance is not long, but it is not short, and a lot of things can happen.
Seeing that Guo Xiaoshi was silent and noncommittal, Jian Yunlong immediately pointed to the old man who was driving, and said to Guo Xiaoshi: "Brother Xiaoshi, since you saved us, I won't hide it from you, anyway, you should have heard about it from those rebels just now." My father is Jian Zhifang, the city lord of Jian Yong City, the three of us escaped in a very hurry, there were not many guards with us, and we were surrounded and chased by the rebels all the way, except for those who were taken away by Uncle Ling, the rest have already died for us, and now we want to be on the border of Aoyu City, where there are people who will pick us up, and then we will transfer to Free City, I hope you can help me with this again. ”
After a slight pause, Jian Yunlong continued to say in a slightly pleading tone: "Brother Xiaoshi, although you and I have just known each other, I have always treated you as friends, this time our father and son are in danger, as long as you help us with this, I, Jian Yunlong, will definitely remember it, and there will be a good reward in the future." ”
Guo Xiaoshi really didn't take it to heart, but recalled that Jian Yunlong reminded him to be careful of Goliath's favor before, Guo Xiaoshi hesitated for a moment and then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll accompany you on a trip!" ”
Hearing Guo Xiaoshi say this, Jian Yunlong suddenly laughed happily, patted Guo Xiaoshi's hand and said, "Okay, good brother, I know that I didn't see the wrong person." ”
The car walked all the way in the direction of Aoyu City, driving very fast, Guo Xiaoshi didn't care about anything, holding the gun and closing his eyes to recuperate, at the same time, while running the Soldier God Attraction Technique, he seized the time to start practicing.
Since being targeted by Goliath, Guo Xiaoshi has had no time to cultivate. Every day, he was either driven by Goliath, or he led Goliath to run, and he had to spend all his heart and soul to deal with Goliath, and his cultivation was completely slackened. He originally secretly warned himself that cultivation is the foundation of establishing himself in this world, and he must spend more time on cultivation in the future, but he didn't expect that after the God of War Energy Attraction Technique was put into operation today, the void source energy in his body flowed very smoothly, and he continued to superimpose it circle by circle, and in the blink of an eye, he easily came over thirty-five circles, and it was still continuing, and it seemed that thirty-six circles were not a problem.
"What's going on?"
Guo Xiaoshi was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't dare to stop the operation of the God of War Attraction Technique, so he could only go with the flow.
According to his cultivation, the source energy in his body had just broken through thirty-three laps before, but he didn't expect that after such a period of "blank period", his cultivation would not retreat but advance, and he actually rushed to thirty-five laps at once, thirty-six laps or even thirty-seven laps can be expected.
Quietly "watching" the continuous growth of the source energy in his body, Guo Xiaoshi endured the pain of "swelling" in circles of flesh and blood in his body, and finally after rushing to the thirty-eighth circle, the surging source energy dissipated and flowed back to all parts of his body.
Guo Xiaoshi reopened his eyes, and the car was still speeding away.
Although he didn't move, he could still feel the changes in his body, as if every cell was "cheering" and "jumping", and the scene was very mysterious.
Jian Zhifang, who was driving in front, seemed to immediately sense Guo Xiaoshi's "change", and he turned his head and glanced at Guo Xiaoshi thoughtfully.
After being glanced at by Jian Zhifang, Guo Xiaoshi immediately felt that the old man's gaze was like a bolt of lightning, piercing into his body and seeing him thoroughly.
Guo Xiaoshi's cold hair stood on end for a moment, and he was alarmed, but Jian Zhifang had already turned his head back, and then said, "It seems that your cultivation has improved again, little brother." ”
Guo Xiaoshi didn't speak, just stared at the back of the old man in front of him.
The previous "stimulation" from the city lord of Jian Yong City was really not small, and he suddenly felt a great threat, like a beast encountering another more powerful beast.
He suddenly came to his senses, before Jian Zhifang was just an ordinary old man in his eyes, and he didn't feel Jian Zhifang's cultivation at all, but now it seems that either Jian Zhifang has some kind of exercise to cover up, or other people's cultivation is several levels higher than him, so that he can't see through it.
While driving, Jian Zhifang glanced at Jian Yunlong again before he said: "On the battlefield, it is the place where you can best temper your cultivation, and the real strong will only be born on the battlefield, not in your comfort nest." ”
His words seemed to be said to Jian Yunlong, and it seemed to be said to Guo Xiaoshi.
I don't know what Jian Yunlong's reaction was, Guo Xiaoshi heard this, and he was immediately blessed to his heart. He finally understood the reason why his cultivation had suddenly improved again.
It turned out that in the process of competing with Goliath, his cultivation was also tempered, and as a result, he unconsciously improved, which may be what Jian Zhifang said, "The battlefield is the best place to hone his cultivation".
