In the silent night, unknown insects began to chirp continuously, and Gongsun Jin sat on the mound where Wang Lao had been sitting, quietly watching the crowd that was burying Wang Lao under the torches not far away.

"In those days, maybe you were in the same mood as well!" Gongsun said to himself.

After a long time, the crowd of people holding torches returned to the village, Gongsun Jin got up and walked to the place where Wang Lao was buried, the newly piled up mound of earth could still smell a fresh smell of earth on it, Gongsun Jin couldn't wait to hold the mound with both hands, choked open his mouth, and made a dull sound.

In a moment, the sound of heart-rending cries resounded in the village cemetery.

Ciping City, East Street, a luxurious mansion, with a plaque of "Zhang Mansion" hanging directly above its gate, this is the residence of Zhang Wude, the head of the B-level mercenary group "Tempest Mercenary Group".

In a palatial room in the mansion, a gorgeously dressed lady was pleading bitterly with Zhang Wude.

"Master! Shan'er has been grounded by you for several days, he already knows that he is wrong, if you lock him up like this again, I'm afraid he will be locked up, if there is really something wrong with it, what can our Zhang family do! Master!" That gorgeous lady is Zhang Youshan's biological mother, because Zhang Youshan was confined for several days, his mother couldn't bear to see her son "suffer" and came to beg Zhang Wude.

Since Zhang Wude learned what Zhang Youshan had done, he was half angry to death, but he didn't expect this guy to be lawless to such a point, and if it continues like this, I'm afraid that even the entire family will be dragged into the water by him.

What made Zhang Wude's heart hurt even more was Zhao Wenkang's death, in order to give Zhang Youshan's inexplicable evil anger, he actually gave his life in vain, how could he not let Zhang Wude feel heartbroken, you must know that Zhao Wenkang is also an expert who can stand alone in the mercenary group.

Staring at the lady in front of him who had spoiled her child to the extreme, Zhang Wude couldn't swallow it in one breath.

"Hmph! This brainless son, even if he dies! Don't you know how he lost that hand? It seems that you won't give up if you don't spoil your son and lose his life!" Zhang Wude shook off his long sleeves, sat down, picked up a cup of tea on the table, and drank it.

The elegant smell of tea made Zhang Wude feel a little quiet.

Zhang Wude, who had just been quiet, was pulled back to reality by his wife's crying, one cry, two tears, and three big tears. This is Mrs. Zhang's unique secret book, and it has been tried and tested repeatedly.

Mrs. Zhang, who was crying silently, began to cry with snot and tears, and began to cry about her own difficulties, he Zhang Wude had a wife and three concubines, and gave birth to five daughters for him, and only she was the fourth concubine of Zhang Wudena to give birth to a single seedling for him, and since then, Zhang Wude has lost his son's life.

After Zhang Wude's wife died of illness, she successfully took the position and became the main room, and now the "Mrs. Zhang" called by the entire Zhang Mansion is Zhang Youshan's biological mother.

"Okay! Okay! Don't cry! I'll take a look in a while, the rabbit cub is really repentant, and he will follow Wuxing to do things, and he will be able to take this position in the future! Let you say as if the rabbit cub is in prison, he has good food and drink and a few maids to accompany him, even if he is grounded, you will make him miserable. "Zhang Wuxing is Zhang Wude's younger brother, and he is the second-in-command in the mercenary group.

Zhang Wude has no resistance to Mrs. Zhang's trick at all, every time Mrs. Zhang cries, then everything will fall to Mrs. Zhang.

There is nothing that Mrs. Zhang can't solve with one cry, if there is, then come twice.

Mrs. Zhang, who was smiling, affectionately took Zhang Wude's arm and began to be coquettish, although Mrs. Zhang has reached the age of a half-old, but its maintenance is excellent, and her skin is as delicate and elastic as a baby.

The charm is still there, like a ripe cherry, which often makes Zhang Wude want to stop, feeling the softness from his arm, Zhang Wude laughed and picked it up and walked towards the room.

Mrs. Zhang's face was flushed and she stuck her head on Zhang Wude's chest, and now Mrs. Zhang's shyness is also one of the reasons why Zhang Wude has been greedy for a long time.

Bai Risheng song, for the girl who served Mrs. Zhang in Zhang's mansion, it was already a commonplace, and the interesting girl slowly closed the door of the room, and stood outside the door on both sides and began to wait.

Adjacent to Zhangfu is a three-storey building, the antique building deeply reveals a strong oriental humanistic atmosphere, this very humanistic building is not a place for literati to write poems and drink, but in Ciping City, the famous B-level mercenary group "Tempest Mercenary Group" its headquarters.

This is the place where the entire mercenary group is active, for some low-level mercenaries in Ciping City, this can be said to be a paradise in their dreams, the life and monthly salary here are notoriously high, and none of the mercenaries who can enter the Tempest Mercenary Group eat white rice, and their fist and foot skills are still good.

"I'm looking for Zhao Wenkang, let this grandson come out and see it!" A middle-aged man, holding a ring knife in his hand and staring at a tiger, stood at the gate of the headquarters of the Tempest Mercenary Group and shouted loudly.

This shout was very penetrating, instantly attracting all the eyes of the busy people and mercenaries on the first floor, but it was just an instant.

Everyone saw a somewhat sloppy man standing at the door, like a fool, daring to come to the headquarters of the Tempest Mercenary Group to do something, this is not stupid, it must be crazy.

And for this kind of thing, everyone is not surprised, and there is nothing lively to see when they see too much, it is nothing more than to send this fool out of his mind, and he should be busy with his own affairs, otherwise there will be no good wine to drink at night.

Zhou Yuanwu, who was standing outside the door, didn't expect the shelf of this Tempest Mercenary Group to be so big, but he was a captain of the Black Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, and he had never seen such a big mercenary group.

Bang!

A table near the door became a victim of Zhou Yuanwu's throwing bricks and jade, and was smashed by Zhou Yuanwu with a knife and scattered neatly all over the ground.

Just as Zhou Yuanwu was about to use the stool next to the table to make bricks again, a dazzling light shot from directly above and smashed directly into Zhou Yuanwu's chest.

The ring knife rung, a ball of firelight burst in front of Zhou Yuanwu's body, and the splashing firelight made a thunderclap sound.

Seeing that he had started, the mercenaries who were close to the door were only a little far away from Zhou Yuanwu, so as not to suffer an unwarranted disaster, and continue to do what he had to do.

"Yo! Not bad! You foolish man, your reaction is still good! I don't know what your identity is?" Walking down from the second floor, a person wearing a sorcerer's strong suit, aged about thirty years old, was Zhang Wude's own brother, the second-in-command of the mercenary group, Zhang Wuxing, and Deputy Head Zhang.

Seeing Zhang Wuxing walking down from the second floor, everyone nodded and greeted Zhang Wuxing.

"Zhou Yuanwu of the Black Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, come to Zhao Wenkang's grandson to compete, he robbed me of the mercenary mission and hid like this, it's really not authentic!" Zhou Yuanwu made up the nonsense he had been pondering for a long time, without the slightest guilt, which showed that he was also a cheeky mercenary who didn't blush when he said nonsense.

If you want to be a qualified mercenary, you must have the most basic skill of being thick-skinned, otherwise those good mercenary tasks, as well as those mercenary tasks with high commissions, low difficulty, small investment, and quick results can still be your turn?

After hearing Zhou Yuanwu report the name of the Black Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, everyone took a look at Zhou Yuanwu, the name of the B-level Black Rattlesnake Mercenary Group is also a small name among the mercenaries in Ciping City, but its sphere of influence is mainly in Zhongjing City, so everyone is like this, and they don't have too shocked expressions and behaviors.

"Yo, it's still not small, dare to ask if Your Excellency is here on behalf of the mercenary group, or personally?" Zhang Wu walked not far in front of Zhou Yuanwu and motioned for Zhou Yuanwu to come in and speak.

After Zhou Yuanwu glanced around, he strode in, and immediately raised his vigilance to the highest level in his heart, he really regretted how unwise it was not to let his teammates follow, and it was even more unwise to come to Zhao Wenkang in the name of playing the field.

Zhou Yuanwu, who was ready to let go of the smoke and run away at any time, went straight to Zhang Wuxing and sat down, Erlang's leg knocked up to hide the tension in his heart, but his eyes fluttered back and forth twice from side to side, how could he hide Zhang Wuxing's eyes.

"Yo, Brother Zhou doesn't have to be so nervous, just tell me if you have any dissatisfaction, our Tempest Mercenary Group doesn't want to have any misunderstanding with the Black Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, everyone is a common people who rely on the mercenary industry to make a living, all brothers in the four seas, and they are harmonious and wealthy!" Zhang Wuxing, who gave people a spring breeze, said to Zhou Yuanwu with a breezy face. His right hand was raised, and he motioned for the servant to serve tea to Zhou Yuanwu.

What did Zhou Wuwu think, how did he feel that this guy was a little weird, he was here to kick the restaurant, but he didn't expect him to come around, as if he was unreasonable and came to make trouble.

Zhou Yuanwu, who sorted out his thoughts, stared at Zhang Wuxing's eyes and said: "I'm here to find Zhao Wenkang, just let him come to see me, and it will be clear at a glance!"

As if knowing that Zhou Yuanwu would say this, Zhang Wuxing frowned and said: "Oh, Brother Zhou came unfortunately, Captain Zhao took the task and went out, and he still hasn't come back until now, for mercenary tasks, I'm afraid Brother Zhou should understand, some tasks are normal for half a month, half a year and eight months, and a year or two, which is not something that mercenaries can control." ”

Indeed, as Zhang Wuxing said, some mercenary tasks may always be hung on the mercenary guild board and no one will hand them over, such as finding people, treasure exploration, adventure, etc., the time taken is incalculable. It's like looking for someone, you may be lucky enough to meet the target you are looking for as soon as you go out, pull it up and hand in the task, and receive the commission. If you're unlucky, if you've been looking for a year and a half, you can't find it.
