Chapter Thirty-Six: The Red Flame Golden Crow
"Haha!"
Looking at Jiang Ying'er's worried look, Jiang Yan smiled very happily, he had so many people's concern, and God was really good to him, thinking that although there were twists and turns this time, he still successfully got the beast fire that could enable him to continue cultivating, Jiang Yan's laughter was even louder. I haven't been so happy in a long time.
When Jiang Yan lowered his head after laughing, he saw Luo Rui Wang Biao and almost all the mercenaries looking at him in a daze, with a look of curiosity on their faces, obviously wanting to know how he killed the Flame Spirit Ape King in the middle of the martial arts unscathed.
"Don't look at it, there are even more powerful demon beasts in the depths of the valley, thinking that the Fire Spirit Ape King is here to grab the territory, so he destroyed it. Count it unlucky. I hid in a small tree on the side and didn't even dare to fart, and only after the demon beast was gone did I come down and pick up the head of the Fire Spirit Ape King, you won't think that I killed that beast, I really don't have that strength. ”
Jiang Yan shook his head matter-of-fact and gestured to Luo Rui with his eyes. Although Luo Rui went later, if there was really a powerful demon beast, it would naturally be seen by her in the air, so Luo Rui knew very well that she was making it up, as long as she didn't debunk herself, it shouldn't be a big problem to deceive Jiang Ying'er's not-so-bright brain.
"Oh!" Wang Biao has been able to be the leader of the mercenary group for so many years in this dangerous 100,000 mountains, so he can naturally hear that Jiang Yan's words are made up casually to prevaricate everyone, but on this continent, who doesn't have a few unknown secrets. Moreover, this Jiang Yan is still the imperial grandson of their Great Jiang Country, and he is not something that his little mercenary leader can provoke. He didn't want to say that he better not ask.
Wang Biao nodded, and cooperated with Jiang Yan to bluff the mercenaries and Jiang Ying'er around him, as if he had really seen the fabricated scene.
"Haha. With the laughter, the whole camp also became lively.
"Your Royal Highness Jiang Yan, we said the good remuneration before. When the bonfire was lit and the mercenary group began to light a fire to cook, Wang Biao put away his honest smile. looked at Jiang Yan with a smile in his eyes.
"Haha" Jiang Yan shook his head angrily, this mercenary leader really didn't give it for nothing, but Jiang Yan was very satisfied with this harvest, so he took out a heavy bag from the storage ring with a smile and threw it at Wang Biao.
Wang Biao opened the bag, and suddenly the dazzling golden light overflowed. The sparkle of gold made Wang Biao's eyes light up. There was also a satisfied smile on his face, this time he hurt so many of his brothers and killed a captain. It was not in vain.
Wang Biao called several captains over, and the gold coins in the bag shone brightly, making these mercenaries can't help but roll their throats, and their eyes are hot.
"Here are 20,000 gold coins, I said before that I would like to be fifty per person, if I get double the beast fire, when we are in the valley, we will say that we will give you double this trip, that is, two hundred per person, and if there is more, I will ask you brothers to buy wine and drink." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
"This, how embarrassing is this. Wang Biao said embarrassedly, in the valley before, he did tell Jiang Yan about the price increase, but the death of the Fire Spirit Ape King had nothing to do with him, and Jiang Yan and the others almost lost their lives because of their inaccurate information, and now Jiang Yan really gave them four times the reward, how could he be embarrassed to take it.
"Okay, that's it, you guys have hurt a lot of people this time, although this matter has been full of twists and turns, you have also made a lot of efforts, and this Fire Spirit Ape King is indeed the fire attribute demon beast I need, but the level is a little higher, but it's a good thing for me, so be it." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
"Then thank you His Royal Highness Jiang Yan. Wang Biao wanted to excuse himself, but seeing the sincerity of what Jiang Yan said, and this time his subordinates did suffer a lot of casualties, so he stopped being hypocritical, handed over the gold coins to his captain, and let him take it down.
"There are no outsiders here, Brother Luo, you still call me Brother Jiang more pleasantly. Jiang Yan looked at Wang Biao and said seriously.
"Brother Jiang" Wang Biao called tentatively, and at the same time there was a burst of cheers in the camp, apparently the captain of his command had already sent the gold down. Listening to the hearty laughter of the mercenaries, the corners of Jiang Yan's mouth also smiled.
Everyone sat around the bonfire to rest, because the gold had just been issued, everyone had a smile on their faces, and the eyes of Jiang Yan and the others were also much closer, Jiang Ying'er also took the opportunity to ask the mercenaries about the interesting things about the adventure in the mountains and forests, for such a beautiful girl, these men who licked blood from the knife all the year round were also spitting about their experience of adventuring in the 100,000 mountains over the years, so that Jiang Ying'er, the county lord who had been protected in the deep palace all the year round, listened with relish and was excited.
Jiang Yan saw that they had a harmonious atmosphere, and he also listened carefully to these stories with a smile, looking for some clues of flame-based demon beasts, and at this time, Wang Biao walked over with a smile, handed a plate of roasted oily beast meat to Jiang Yan, and said a big bowl full of spirits from the wine bag on his waist and said with a smile: "Drink it, I'll tell you a piece of news you want to know." ”
Jiang Yan is still a fourteen-year-old boy, he has only drunk some fruit wine in the palace on weekdays, and he is addicted to cultivation, and he doesn't like this kind of thing in the cup, but seeing Wang Biao's sincere face, he still took it and drank it all, this wine is not like the fruit wine in the palace, it is brewed by the tavern in the town with wild sweet potatoes in the 100,000 mountains, and the mercenaries usually drink it, not to mention any aftertaste, only momentum, drink it and swallow it quickly, otherwise it is easy to burn the tongue, and it is like a flame churning in the stomach after the stomach, but these men who lick blood from the knife edge and exchange their lives for money earn a day's life, their muscles are sore, their hearts are depressed, or they have earned money, and they are happy, isn't it just to be able to take a sip of spirits and then sleep beautifully without thinking about anything.
After Jiang Yan drank this bowl of spirits, he only felt as if there was a flame churning in his stomach, so he hurriedly grabbed two pieces of meat from the plate and swallowed them without chewing them, only then did he suppress the churning wine. Then he couldn't help but cough a few times.
"Drink slowly!" Seeing this, Luo Rui on the side hurriedly patted Jiang Yan's back with his jade hand. Strange said.
"Don't shoot it, if you shoot it again, you'll vomit. "It's okay not to shoot, this beat stirred up the wine again, Jiang Yan hurriedly stuffed two more mouthfuls of meat and said.
"Haha!" came the hearty laughter of the mercenaries.
"Haha, Brother Jiang, I won't tell you, I have received many children of royal relatives and nobles to hunt and explore in the mountains every year in these 100,000 mountains, but none of them are as approachable as you, to be honest, you are the person I have ever seen who looks up to our group of rough people. Wang Biao obviously drank a lot, but his words revealed sincerity.
"Brother Wang laughed, everyone is a citizen of the Great Jiang Country, there is nothing different. Jiang Yan also said with a smile.
"Since my brother looks up to my eldest brother, I will tell you what I know. Aren't you looking for those fire-type demon beasts in these 100,000 mountains? I really know about one of these legendary monsters. Wang Biao said with the smell of wine.
"Oh?"
"To the south of this 100,000 mountain, there is a valley of hundred flowers, and when I was young, I followed our old regiment leader to explore there. There we met a red flame golden crow. ”
"What" Jiang Yan's wine suddenly woke up for more than half of the time, the Red Flame Golden Crow, is the descendant of the ancient divine beast Three-legged Golden Crow, legend has it that the sun on the Martial Continent is a three-legged Golden Crow changed after his death, the three-legged Golden Crow is a legendary divine beast, and the unicorn, the real dragon, the real phoenix The same terrifying existence. No one has seen its true face for hundreds of years, and this Chiyan Golden Crow is a descendant of the three-legged Golden Crow, although it is still a demon beast, but the adult Chiyan Golden Crow is also the same as the Ying Dragon in his body, with a strength comparable to the peak of the Martial Sect, and its natal heart flame "Burning Sun Fire" is even stronger in some ways than "Ying Long's Breath". ”
"Brother Wang, have you seen the Chiyan Golden Crow?" Jiang Yan looked at the rough man in front of him seriously, wanting to see from his eyes whether he was telling the truth. But to his disappointment, except for a pair of drunken eyes. He only saw a lump of in the corner of Wang Biao's eye.
"I was still a sixth-level martial artist at the time, and that time I was hired by my regiment leader to lead a team to the Hundred Flowers Valley by a nobleman of the Wu Kingdom, and I said that I would just go there to collect some herbs. But something wasn't right on the day of departure. The person who hired us, our head knew before, was a prince of the Wu Kingdom, and he usually pointed fingers at our head of the group, but that time he was extremely respectful to the people he brought. The level of respect is as if that person is the emperor of the state of Wu... Wang Biao said to Jiang Yan with a mouthful of wine.
The next thing Wang Biao said after drinking was upside down, but Jiang Yan roughly understood, the leader of that team was probably a super force from outside the five countries in the south, otherwise it would be impossible for King Wu to respect a person so much, the purpose of their coming to the 100,000 Mountains was very clear, not to collect medicine, according to Wang Biao's recollections, Jiang Yan felt that they were here to hunt beasts. Because many of the people who accompanied them carried heavy packages and huge cages. When they found the Valley of Hundred Flowers, Wang Biao's regiment commander kept an eye on it and let Wang Biao and another subordinate sneak out of the team in advance by peeing, and Wang Biao's regiment leader's worries became a reality. As soon as they arrived in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, the group of centaurs launched a bloody massacre against their mercenary group. Before he could even resist, the head of the regiment and many of his good brothers were killed in an instant by the mysterious man brought by King Wu.
"And then?" Jiang Yan continued.
"I watched from a distance as they entered the Hundred Flowers Valley with those instruments, and it didn't take long for them to hear their screams from the Hundred Flowers Valley. Then the mysterious man flew out of the valley and ran back like hell. A red flame chased after him, and I saw a crow-like bird the size of a palm crash into his fleeing figure, and he was burned to a puddle of ash with a scream. What a retribution. Wang Biao gritted his teeth and said.
