The order fell, Guo Ying walked out of the hall and ordered the guard who came to report. Then, when she walked back in, the hall fell silent.

In the past few months, since Panhutang moved into Shuibian City, there was a stalemate with Blood Eagle Hall and Panshekou, and most of the Shili who had been in contact with the two families earlier rushed to break up the relationship. Even some shili who have a really good relationship with each other, under all kinds of pressure, only occasionally maintain some secret contact, let alone walk around openly.

After all, Panhutang's momentum is huge, and once all the first-line and even second-tier mercenary groups in the northern seven cities are included under its command, it will be an extremely unbelievable shili, and it will directly become the main force to undertake the tasks of the major shili factions in the northern part of the empire. Moreover, with so many mercenaries unified on one platform, the efficiency will be greatly improved if the previous chaotic competition mode is changed. Of course, although reunification has many advantages, it also brings about one disadvantage, that is, monopoly.

You must know that the development of the seven northern cities mostly relies on the geographical advantages of being close to the Blood Sea Forest and the Desperate Swamp. The shili that accompanies this is almost inseparable from the two dangerous places. As for adventures and quests, in addition to the regular large families and chambers of commerce's own horses, the rest is the various mercenary groups. Now that the Panhutang family has a monopoly, if you want to cooperate with it in the future, you will definitely have to be constrained by many constraints. However, many people can see through these things, but at most they complain secretly, and they still have to try their best to have a good relationship with Panhutang on the surface.

"Blood Hall Master, I haven't seen you for a few years, but I don't want to go to Shuichang City to sit, do you have to let an old friend come to visit?" After a while, a clear voice came, and Jin Yun'er took the lead in entering the hall. Suddenly interrupted the contemplation of several people.

Hear the words. Old man Guo took the lead in getting up. Blood Changying and Pan Ning hurriedly followed and greeted them.

"Master Jin, I didn't expect you to come!" Raising his eyes to see the face full of peaceful smiles, Blood Changying was obviously a little surprised. In the entire northern part of the empire, the Golden Hairpin Chamber of Commerce has only opened a branch, which is located in Shuichang City. On weekdays, there are some contacts between the two sides, but most of them are provided by the Chamber of Commerce. Organize some mercenary groups to participate in normal trading or auction activities. Really speaking, everyone's relationship is only superficial, and there is no deep friendship.

"What's the matter? Isn't the Blood Hall Master welcoming me to visit?"

Hearing this obviously joking remark, Blood Changying waved his hand and said with a smile: "What did you say, at this time, you dare to come to the Blood Eagle Hall and Panshekou to walk around, you are still the only one." Please!"

After inviting the three of Kim Yuna to sit down and serving tea, the two sides also looked at each other. After a while, his eyes fell on the old man with a kind face. Jin Yan'er raised her eyebrows and said, "You are Guo Tao, one of the founders of the Blood Eagle Hall, a senior?"

"It's down there. He smiled and nodded. Guo Tao did not deny it.

Hearing this answer, Jin Yan'er's face was stunned, and she immediately looked at the Blood Eagle with strange eyes, and said, "Ten years ago, there was a rumor within the Blood Eagle Hall, saying that Senior Guo died in the Desperate Swamp, why now?"

"Don't blame the eagle for this. It's the old man's attention!"

Hearing this, Guo Tao smiled and said: "In order to capture a scattered ten-star medium-sized young beast in the desperate swamp, the old man and Changying's father tracked it for four days and three nights, and they were about to succeed, but they didn't want to be the parents of Yujian's young beasts that had reached the ten-star high level. Under the fierce battle, if it weren't for Changying's father fighting for his life, it would be difficult for the old man to escape with his life. Because my Illusion Pill was severely damaged at that time, and I fell from the Seven Great Enlightenment Illusion Body Realm to the Seven Small Formations, I had to meditate, so I found an excuse to die and put aside mundane things. ”

"I see. "Such as Guo Tao summoned a legendary-level illusionist to become famous more than a hundred years ago, and he is a well-known master in the north of the empire, no wonder Jin Yun'er can recognize it at first sight, and when she heard the other party's explanation, she couldn't help but sigh, expecting that it would eventually lead to the fall of the realm, and Guo Tao's trauma at that time must have been not light.

At this time, Blood Changying's brows were furrowed, and since Zhang Hao stepped into the hall door, his gaze had not been taken away from the other party. I have to say that in the past two years or so, it has been in the stage where his appearance has changed a lot, and he has only had one side at the beginning, so although he feels that the young man in front of him is very familiar, he has not recognized his identity for a while.

Touching the gaze of the Blood Eagle, Zhang Hao kept smiling, and at this moment, seeing that the atmosphere was silent, he stood up directly and played with the taste: "What's the matter? I haven't seen each other for two years, and the Blood Hall Master and the Pan Hall Master don't recognize the kid?"

"Little brother is" Hearing this, Blood Changying and Pan Ning both got up, and their faces were still a little confused with a wry smile.

"We have met once at the branch of the Shuichang City Golden Hairpin Chamber of Commerce, my name is Zhang Hao!"

"Brother Zhang Xiaohao!"

Hearing this name, Blood Changying's face was stunned, and he quickly recalled a young face, and immediately he and Pan Ning glanced at each other, stretched out his fist and smashed it in his palm, and said excitedly: "It's indeed Brother Xiao Hao!, but your appearance and size have really changed a lot!"

"yes. Stretched out his palm and rubbed his nose, now Zhang Hao is not only much taller, but the long hair on his head is also flowing on both sides, and his appearance is a little different from before, and then he smiled: "If this is the case, I'm afraid I don't have to pay off the debt I owe to Brother Blood." You don't recognize me right now, anyway. ”

"Hahaha"

A joke caused a burst of good-natured laughter, and then Zhang Hao's palm turned, and he added a space ring, saying: "At the beginning of the two years of agreement, the time was just six days apart. This is two million high-grade power stones, calculate a little interest to make up a whole number, please click on it. ”

Nodding heavily, the Blood Eagle was also sharp, reached out and took the space ring handed over by Zhang Hao, and said with a wry smile: "No need, I can trust Brother Xiao Hao's character." In the past few months, Panhutang has intercepted most of the business of our two halls, and life is really difficult, so I stopped ink and accepted it. ”

When these words fell, the atmosphere was a little dull for a while, and Pan Ning next to him said: "Now that Panhu Hall is powerful, no one dares to take over the real estate in Tangkou." In the past few days, we are just preparing to move to the border of the Shanlan Empire, and we need a lot of money to settle down as a whole, and the money sent by Brother Xiao Hao is really timely rain!"

"Sit down, sit down. As he spoke, the Blood Eagle waved his hand.

Sitting back in his place, sensing the dullness of the atmosphere at the scene, the fat man spoke: "As for moving to the Shanlan Empire? This Tianshui Empire is so vast, there are no less than thirty cities, and he has the ability to eat all the mercenaries in the empire? You won't be afraid to this extent, right?"

"Stinky fat man, what do you know?" Hearing the obvious disdain in the fat man's words, Guo Ying was suddenly annoyed: "For more than a year, all the mercenary groups that migrated to other cities in the empire would be intercepted and killed by the Panhu Hall on the way, and almost none of them survived!"

"Xiaoying, don't be unreasonable. ”

Guo Tao frowned slightly and glared at the angry girl on his face, and when he saw that the other party turned his head in disdain, he sighed heavily: "Little brother, Xiaoying, this kid is short-tempered, don't take it to heart." In fact, even if you don't care about your reputation and choose to quit the mercenary industry in the future, things will not be solved so easily. Pan Yun is ruthless, and in his eyes, only dead enemies will be completely reassured. After all, there are forty or fifty mercenaries in the seven cities in the north, and now the Panhu Hall wants to break the pattern of the mercenary industry in the north of the empire for nearly a thousand years, which can be said to offend everyone deeply. ”

"That's right, in order to protect themselves, the Bear Blood Soldiers of Shuiao City have agreed with Panhutang to withdraw from the mercenary line from now on. But on the way to other cities, more than 500 people, young and old, disappeared inexplicably, leaving not even a trace. In the past year, examples like the Bear Blood Soldiers have abounded in the seven northern cities. ”

Blood Changying let out a deep sigh and said, "Pan Yun knows better than anyone else that if you don't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, it will bring endless troubles in the future. And it is precisely for this reason that we had to move far away to the Shanlan Empire. ”

"I see!"

Zhang Hao nodded with a conscious look on his face and said, "Are you sure to leave?"

Obviously, although the words are not specified, the meaning is very obvious. If Pan Yun really had a murderous intent, facing a summoning saint master with eight-element yuan power, with the strength of the few people in front of him, it was estimated that it would be difficult to get out. After all, if the phantom body breaks through the eightfold level, as long as you perceive the laws of heaven and earth with your body and stabilize the realm, you can almost exert all the strength of the phantom beast. And at the beginning, Zhang Hao had seen that Panyun had a ten-star medium-level demonic beast Xiaolin Fighting Mountain Tiger. Such a master is definitely stepping into the Ninefold Phantom Body Realm with one foot, that is, Zhang Hao is on the side, if he can't be surprised when he shoots, it will be difficult to capture him.

This question came into his ears, and the faces of Blood Changying and Pan Ning shook their heads with a wry smile.

"Hey!"

Guo Tao said bitterly: "Things have developed to this point, staying is definitely a dead end." And the old man has already made arrangements in advance, but this is about half a day's journey to Jumeng Town in the Desperate Swamp, and whether Panyun will send someone to intercept it can only depend on the will of God!"

"Grandpa, if it really doesn't work, let's fight with them! Even if we die, we have to pull a few beasts from Panhutang on their backs. Feeling the misery on her grandfather's face, Guo Ying's eyes were like copper bells, and her face was resolute.

"Shout, I can't see that you little girl is quite bloody. ”

Hearing this, the fat man raised his eyebrows, and immediately put on a deep expression of respect, raised his bloated left leg and pressed it his right leg, and then picked up the Xiangxiang tea on the table and took a sip gently, and when he felt that everyone's eyes in the hall were transferred to him, he sighed: "Isn't it just a summoning saint master?"

Speaking of this, the fat man's buttocks were forced, and he stood up directly, with his hands behind his back, looking up at the hall at a forty-five degree angle, and said in a deep voice: "Lao Tzu can destroy him with a wave of his hand!" (to be continued......)
