Volume 1 There Are Fish in the North Chapter 102 The First Mission
Because he accepted some people from the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group and added everyone from the Oriental Academy, Ye Chun adjusted the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Mercenary Group, he originally wanted those old people and children to leave the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Mercenary Group and return to the Ye family, but these people were stunned and didn't leave, so Ye Chun could only keep them, but he didn't give any tasks.
These people couldn't resist Ye Chun's insistence, and Ye Qiu also agreed with Ye Chun's approach, so they could only stop arguing one by one.
The Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Mercenary Regiment has just started, and although it has received a lot of people from the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group, it still needs manpower, so it is still the same as a few days ago, not only to put out a notice to take the task, but also to hang out a recruitment notice.
The task was carried out by everyone from Oriental Academy, and the recruitment task was handed over to Ye Chun, Yang Shiyin, Duan Xiuxiu, and Qiu Xiaoyun, but this little girl didn't agree to live or die, so she had to follow Ye Qiu and the others, and said that Ye Qiu's mother asked her to protect Ye Qiu, which made Ye Qiu not only have a big head, but also a little headache.
Anyway, no one has ever given him such a headache all along.
Soon, the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter mercenary group received its first mission since its establishment, escorting a caravan from the Yunxue Empire to the Song Kingdom, and the price given was five hundred taels, which was actually not too high.
After all, there are often rogues on the border, and if you don't get it right, it will be a bloody battle, and many mercenary groups have not accepted it at this price, so they naturally found the mercenary group in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
The caravan is not big, five carriages, one carriage sits people, four carriages pull goods, the caravan has a total of nine people, a woman, and a maidservant, and the remaining seven are all men in the guard, but the strength of these people is actually not very strong, and the strongest one is the sixth order of the spirit, otherwise it would not have cost money to ask the mercenary group to escort it.
The leading man looked at Ye Qiu and his party as teenagers of seventeen or eighteen years old, and there was even a little girl about fifteen years old, who was full of disdain for everyone along the way, and didn't even bother to talk to these people.
The woman and her maidservant seldom appeared, except for a break and a meal, and were almost always in the carriage.
This is a very ordinary caravan, and it is also a small business, otherwise it would not even be reluctant to pay for hiring people.
Compared with the man's disdain, Qiu Xiaoyun was very indignant.
You spent five hundred taels, invited so many spirit masters, and a spirit sect, the most important thing, we are all still from the Oriental Academy, and my Qiu Xiaoyun is even more ...... What, you're still not happy?
She thought so in her heart, but her face would not show any dissatisfaction, for fear that it would affect the business of the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Mercenary Group, although five hundred taels is not a lot of money, but it is the first business of the Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Mercenary Group, it is not because she is disturbed, so even if Ye Qiu does not behave her, she will not be able to get along with herself.
The woman also seemed to know that the money was less, so when she was having lunch, she took the initiative to open her mouth.
She put a steamed bun in her mouth and chewed it slowly, then took a piece of pickle, looked at Ye Qiu and the others, and said lightly: "If we encounter ordinary spirit beasts, we don't need you to make a move, we can solve it ourselves, but if we are unlucky and meet the rogues in the mountains, everyone has to be united, otherwise we will not be able to get out of the border between the two countries." ”
Ye Qiu smiled and said: "This is natural, although our Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter mercenary group is doing business for the first time, we still know the integrity of doing business." ”
The woman nodded, and said no more.
She didn't say it, and Ye Qiu wouldn't ask her what kind of business she was, let alone ask what her name was and where she lived, so that even if this woman didn't have an idea, those people under her would probably have an idea.
Men are often stranger than women.
After eating, the woman returned to the carriage and was never seen again.
Qiu Xiaoyun followed behind Ye Qiu, frowned, and said in a low voice: "Ye Qiu, what kind of business do you say they do, how can they look like they are unseemly?"
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, "You don't know, how could I know." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun pouted and said, "I didn't let you guess." ”
Ye Qiu looked at the four carriages, "It should be some ordinary medicinal herbs, and each carriage will exude a strong medicinal smell." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun nodded and said, "I also smelled it just now, it stands to reason that people who are in the medicinal herb business are very rich, why do these people look very poor." ”
Ye Qiu smiled bitterly: "Medicinal materials are also divided into grades, good medicinal materials are naturally valuable, but if they are just ordinary medicinal materials, there are many people who sell them, and few people buy them, so naturally they are not worth much." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun looked at Ye Qiu, her eyes widened and said, "You have also done business before?"
Ye Qiu shook his head and said, "I haven't done it, but my eldest brother and second brother have done it, and it just so happens that my second brother used to manage medicinal materials." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun nodded, remembering about the Ye family, so he didn't ask any more.
From the Yunxue Empire to the Song Kingdom, it is actually not very far, it is only two days away, but it is necessary to cross the mountains, and there is a convoy, so it will be an extra day or two of the journey.
In addition, there are often spirit beasts in the mountains, so there is little rest along the way, after all, as long as the mountain is out, everyone can really rest at ease, and as it continues to the south, the temperature is gradually warmer, although there is still snow on the ground, but it will not be covered with snow like the northern cold land.
At this moment, the man in the lead stopped, and the entire convoy also stopped, Ye Qiu looked along the convoy and couldn't help frowning, Qiu Xiaoyun was relatively short, and he couldn't see what was happening in front of him, so he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Kang replied: "There is a spirit beast in front, it seems that it should be the top spirit beast among the earth spirit beasts. ”
Qiu Xiaoyun said with a smile: "There is a good show to watch now." ”
Zhou Kang, Lin Feiyu and others were stunned, but Ye Qiu smiled a little helplessly.
Qiu Xiaoyun explained: "Didn't she just say that if you encounter a spirit beast, you don't need us to take action." ”
Wei Dian said heavily: "But if these people want to deal with top-level earth spirit beasts, they obviously don't have much chance of winning. ”
Hu Yuanhu nodded and said: "After all, it is an existence that can be compared to the powerhouses of the Spirit Sect, and the strongest of these people is the sixth order of the Spirit Sect, even if they encounter ordinary spirit beasts, it is enough to choke." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun snorted coldly: "Then we don't need to worry about it, if they all die, it's not too late for us to make a move." ”
Ye Qiu said with a smile: "Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others, you don't understand this truth." ”
With that, he walked forward, "I'll take a look." ”
Everyone also followed, Qiu Xiaoyun stomped his feet angrily, and scolded in a low voice: "Nosy." ”
The woman lifted the curtain and asked, "What's the matter?"
The leading man didn't dare to look back, stared at a lion in front of him with a pair of eyes, and said heavily: "Miss, there is a silver snow lion in front of you blocking the way." ”
The woman frowned, and said in a deep voice, "How can there be a silver snow lion here?"
A young man in his twenties complained: "I said earlier that I would pay more money and hire a better mercenary group, but now it's good, even if we don't meet the rogues, we don't want to get out of this mountain alive." ”
The woman glanced back at Ye Qiu and the others, and just as Ye Qiu and the others walked up, she spoke: "Now that I have met the Silver Snow Lion, this is a spirit beast that can be compared to the powerhouses of the Spirit Sect, I am afraid that you will have to make a move." ”
Before Ye Qiu could speak, Qiu Xiaoyun said, "Didn't you just say that when you meet a spirit beast, you don't need us to make a move?"
The woman was a little embarrassed, and said bitterly: "But the silver snow lion is not an ordinary spirit beast after all, as long as you can get rid of this spirit beast, when you arrive in the Song Kingdom, I will definitely add money to you." ”
Ye Qiu said with a smile: "There is no need to add money, the five hundred that we said is good, since we have already collected the money, we naturally want to protect your safety." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun heard this, and her teeth itched with hatred.
Dead Yeqiu, aren't you usually quite shrewd, why are you stupid now?
Then she frowned, this guy shouldn't have taken a fancy to this woman, right?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly shook her head.
Ye Qiu walked up to the man, "I'll come." ”
Everyone was stunned, and the man frowned and said, "Are you okay?"
He didn't answer, he had already walked towards the silver snow lion, and the young man who had complained before looked at Ye Qiu stepping forward, pursed his lips, and said disdainfully: "Pretend to be a master, no one will collect your body for a while." ”
Qiu Xiaoyun glared at her and said coldly: "Shut your stinky mouth, and be careful if you say another word, I'll throw you up first." ”
The young man really closed his mouth, for some reason, Qiu Xiaoyun's strange eyes always made him feel a little scared, but he still had a disdainful expression on his face, looking ahead.
Ye Qiu slowly walked towards the Silver Snow Lion and said with a light smile: "It just so happens that you need a spirit crystal to advance to the third order, but I didn't expect you to send it yourself." ”
After that, twelve dark blue flying knives had appeared in front of him, and he continued to move forward, with each step, his fingers flicked on a flying knife, and as his fingers flicked the flying knives, his surroundings were suddenly sharp, and sword qi continued to appear, and then condensed, and finally soared into the sky.
Wei Dian said heavily: "But if these people want to deal with top-level earth spirit beasts, they obviously don't have much chance of winning. ”
Hu Yuanhu nodded and said: "After all, it is an existence that can be compared to the powerhouses of the Spirit Sect, and the strongest of these people is the sixth order of the Spirit Sect, even if they encounter ordinary spirit beasts, it is enough to choke." ”
