Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Army of the Ancient Hunters
Although the Illusory World Residence City is chaotic, since there has been a Jushang Temple, no one has ever been able to break in. Someone once said that in the Phantom World Changju City, the Jushang Courtyard with the door opened to accommodate all directions, and the water in the Jushang Courtyard with the door closed could not be splashed. Now not only did someone break in, but the door was broken.
No matter who breaks the door of the host's house and breaks in, they will not be treated as a guest by the host's house.
Even through a veil, An Zheng felt the chill on Zhuang Feifei's face.
The two welcoming servants of Jushangyuan stood on the ground and groaned, their hands and feet broken in strange postures. The people who come are so rude, even a welcoming guy can hurt so badly.
An Zheng looked back, and it was a big man with a beard who came in. He is 1.9 meters tall, with a tiger's back and an ape waist, and is visually extremely tough. The man wore a fur shoulder on the upper body, a coarse cloth blouse underneath, and a pair of large cotton trousers with a crotch on the lower body. The brawny man carried a large package in his left hand, but it appeared to be flat and appeared to contain something like a shield. And in his right hand he held a hunting fork, sharp and sharp.
Behind this strong man, there were more than a dozen people who were almost dressed in the same clothes, with the same hunting fork in their hands. And the most puzzling thing is that there is a little girl with clear eyebrows in this strange team, who is only twelve or thirteen years old.
"The people of the Ancient Hunters?"
Zhuang Feifei frowned and asked.
The strong man nodded: "That's right! I heard that you have a treasure appreciation meeting today, so I want to see how your treasure is, and it is not comparable to the treasure in my hand." ”
The atmosphere was a little tense, and it seemed that a fight could start at any time. However, everyone here will not be stupid enough to act for Jushang Academy, and everyone knows that there are such masters in Jushang Academy. Besides, seeing that the person who came was an ancient hunter, everyone was even more reluctant to mix.
Gao Sanduo lowered his voice in An Zheng's ear and said: "The Gu Hunter Clan is the aboriginal of Cangman Mountain, their tribe can have a population of millions and 100,000 elite soldiers during its prosperity, but a few decades ago, because of their indiscretion, they were involved in the conquest of the Sixteen Kingdoms of Youyan and suffered heavy losses. Later, the remaining ancient hunters moved deeper into the Cangman Mountain, and now they can rarely be seen. They act rudely and have no rules, so they may not even know what a place the temple is. ”
The strong man said with a big grin: "My name is Gu Man, and I was going to politely come in to change things, but the two little guys outside you didn't let me in, so I had to call in." ”
With a bang, he inserted the hunting fork in his hand into the stone slab ground, and then took out a bag of sand gold from his arms and threw it on the ground: "Our ancient hunter clan is reasonable, and if you hurt someone, you have to pay for it, and these sand gold are the money for the two little guys to treat their injuries." ”
Zhuang Feifei didn't know what to do for a while, she wanted to kill that Gu Man directly, but after hearing Gu Man say three words to change things, she immediately changed her mind.
"The person who injured me, kicked the door of my Jushang Courtyard, and casually threw a bag of sand gold and it was over?"
Zhuang Feifei sneered: "The people of the Ancient Hunter Clan have always been rude, but being rude is not a reason for you to commit murder. So no matter what you're here for today, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that none of you can leave. ”
Gu Man glanced back at the girl, and then patted his chest: "Then what do you say, your people won't let me in, and I have to come in again." ”
An Zheng could see that Zhuang Feifei's attitude just needed a step. He looked around, and the masters of Jushangyuan had already gathered around, ready to strike at any time.
"Since there is a reason why I have to come in, let's talk about it. ”
An Zheng stood up, looked back at Gu Man and said: "The reason why Jushangyuan can make such a big deal depends on two words, one is sincerity and the other is righteousness. If you do have a reason to come in, speak up and listen to it, and let Mr. Big judge whether that reason is enough to relieve you of the consequences of being rude. ”
Gu Man glanced at An Zheng: "Who are you?" ”
An argued: "A guest." ”
"Barbarians, show them. ”
At this moment, the little girl who had been standing behind suddenly spoke. This sentence made An Zheng's attention all diverted. At first, An Zheng thought that this little girl was Gu Man's daughter, but the tone in which she said this was an order. And after she spoke, the ancient man immediately put the big package in his hand on the ground, and then fell to his knees, and opened the package with a sincere and solemn face.
"My master said let you see, then let you see. ”
The moment Gu Man opened the package, a light lit up in the room.
"Seal the door!"
Zhuang Feifei suddenly shouted, followed by the air as if it were all frozen, and then more than a dozen figures swept over from all around. They quickly tossed aside the broken door and sealed it with a seal. After a tinkling sound, the light in the room dimmed.
Gao Sanduo's face was also a little excited, and he grabbed An Zheng's hand: "Jushang Courtyard has closed the door, and it hasn't happened for many years." ”
"What's going on?"
Ann asked.
Gao Sanduo explained: "There is a rule in Jushangin, if that guest enters the door with a real treasure that is enough to make Jushangin value, and he is here to ask for help, Jushangin will immediately close the door and use the strength of the entire Jushangin to protect the person seeking help. ”
An Zheng nodded: "There is also this rule, the first time I heard of it." ”
Gao Sanduo smiled and said: "How old are you, the last time Jushang Yuan closed the door was thirty-seven years ago. ”
An Zheng asked, "How old were you at that time?"
Gao Sanduo was silent for a while and then replied seriously: "I'm only eighteen this year." ”
As he spoke, Gu Man had already opened the package completely. Everyone couldn't help but stand up and lean forward to see what was in the package, which actually made Zhuang Feifei make the decision to close the door in an instant. This kind of thing is not up to her alone. As long as the door is closed, the chief treasurer of a certain place must consult with all the people in charge before reporting to the headquarters of Jusshoin before making this decision.
So when Zhuang Feifei said the words "closing the door", the people in Jushang Yuan were stunned for a moment.
"What is this?"
Zhen Zhuangbi was obviously also very excited, it was a great opportunity to meet the closure of Jushang Academy. Maybe you will see a treasure that you haven't seen for so many years before, a real treasure.
Zhuang Feifei stood in front of the crowd and even knelt down on one knee to look at the thing. And the people who were there really couldn't see what it was. Of course, An Zheng was not too excited, he had seen too many treasures, and he was not without good things on Zipin now, so there was really nothing that could make him excited.
How could it be this thing!
But when An Zheng saw the thing clearly, his face immediately changed.
The contents of the package are not complete, they are fragments. But no one can determine the value of this thing, and no one can define the quality of this thing.
That's a small half of a fish scale.
It's just a small half of a fish scale, but the depths of An Zheng's heart are like turning over the river and the sea. If it weren't for the experience of entering the depths of Cangmanshan last time, he wouldn't have recognized this thing. This fish scale is the scale of the huge carp that An Zheng saw. The reason why An Zheng was so sure was because the big fish had jumped up in front of him at close range and swallowed a winged eagle.
The fish is big, and even now An Zheng still feels excited as long as he remembers it.
An Zheng knew because he had just met him not long ago, but Zhuang Feifei also knew each other, which was obviously a little strange. An Zheng was the first seat of the Ming Law Division before, and he saw much more things than Zhuang Feifei. If he hadn't happened to see that huge carp, An Zheng wouldn't have recognized what this thing was. Zhuang Feifei is just the chief shopkeeper of a branch of Jushang Academy, how can she have more experience than An Zheng?
At this time, the little girl of the ancient hunting clan walked up, looked at the people present, and said in a crisp but rather contemptuous voice: "It seems that only this sister knows what this thing is, and the rest of the group are ordinary people. ”
This little girl is twelve or thirteen years old, and she speaks mercilessly.
An Zheng looked at her and found that the biggest characteristic of this little girl was white, not the sickly white, but the white full of youth. Her eyes are large, her nose is straight, and her forehead is slightly higher, but it doesn't affect her beauty. She has curly hair that is slightly dark red and wears a silver headdress on her head. She wore a skirt made of fabric peculiar to the ancient hunters, and a pair of deerskin boots on her feet.
It's very rude.
"What are you looking at?"
The little girl glared at An Zheng: "If you look at me so rudely, I will gouge out your eyes." ”
An Zheng shrugged his shoulders and did not speak.
Gu Man was very angry: "My master is talking to you!"
An Zheng ignored him, but comforted the cat in his arms. Because the cat has been trembling since they came in, especially after opening it, the cat has trembled even more. Maybe it thought of the previous experience with An Zheng in the Cangmanshan Mountain, and was frightened after seeing the scales of the big fish.
Gu Man stood up violently, pulled the hunting fork out of the floor and strode towards An Zheng: "Kneel down and apologize!"
Zhuang Feifei's eyes did not leave the scales, but he said in a cold voice: "If you dare to be presumptuous, I will kill all of you." My guests, you can move if you want?"
Gu Man's footsteps immediately paused, and he subconsciously looked back at the little girl. The little girl shook her head slightly, and Gu Man immediately withdrew to her side.
"If you know it, you should know its value. ”
The little girl walked to a chair and sat down, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Our ancient hunters are not good at business, so we are often deceived. But we know the value of this thing. The appearance of the holy fish shows that the world is about to be in chaos. With the scales of the holy fish, it is equivalent to having a talisman that is enough to survive in troubled times. ”
Zhuang Feifei stood up, but her eyes still didn't leave the scales: "That's just a legend, not necessarily true." ”
The little girl said: "Our ancient hunter clan has never doubted the truth of this prophecy, hundreds of years ago, the holy fish appeared, and the world was in chaos. The rise of the southern Daxi and the pacification of the troubled times have led to hundreds of years of stability. And it is rumored that the reason why the royal family of Daxi can become the ruler is precisely because of the favor of the holy fish. ”
An Zheng frowned slightly, because he had never heard of such rumors. As the head of the Great Ximing Law Division, he didn't even know about the rumors, how could the people of the Ancient Hunting Clan know. Moreover, the rise of the Great Xi Imperial Family was due to the birth of a supreme powerhouse of the Great Heaven Realm, and it had nothing to do with any holy fish.
But it seems that Zhuang Feifei does not doubt what the little girl said.
"Every time the holy fish appears, it is a harbinger of chaos in the world. ”
The little girl continued, "With the scales of the holy fish, it is equivalent to receiving the guidance of the holy fish. It is rumored that the scales will protect people, take people to avoid troubled times, and even find the treasures of the world. And whoever gets the treasure gets the world. ”
An Zheng asked, "Then why don't you go and find the treasure yourself?"
The little girl glared at An Zheng, but replied very seriously: "Because I know very well that our ancient hunting clan can't keep this thing, it's better to exchange it for enough things than to provoke the disaster of exterminating the clan because of it." ”
An Zheng asked: "Aren't you afraid of causing trouble now?"
The little girl raised her eyebrows: "I don't care about this illusory world for a long time." Although the Ancient Hunter Clan is not as prosperous as before, there are still tens of thousands of warriors. If something happens to me here today, the Illusory World Eternal Residence City will be washed in blood. ”
Outside, the sound of a horn suddenly came to mind, and the whining sound was heard far, far away. Soon there were people shouting in the street, their voices filled with horror.
"An army of the Ancient Hunters!"
