Chapter 56: The Gentleman is Angry
It is safe to return to the Yun family, and everyone's hanging hearts can be regarded as letting go.
As soon as he came to the guest room prepared for himself by the Yun family, a servant came to spread the word, saying that Yun Lingtian was holding a banquet in the hall, and everyone had received an invitation. Although I am already a little tired, it is difficult to excuse myself because of the situation. Besides, the other party is the head of the Yun family, if you don't go, you will inevitably fall into the mouth, so you should go.
After washing up, taking out a set of clean clothes from the storage Lingpei and changing into them, Chu Ming went to the hall under the guidance of the servant.
found that everyone else had already arrived, and Yun Lingtian was sitting on the first seat, Chen Dong, Su Xin and others were seated in turn, and Yun Ruoxue was also among them. There were no other sect disciples on the field except for them, and they had already left first.
Seeing Chu Ming coming, Yun Lingtian greeted warmly, "Chu Shaoxia, please take a seat." It was Yun who looked away before, and it was no wonder that "Obviously, Yun Ruoxue has already told Yun Lingtian what happened on the way to collect medicine."
Chu Ming smiled and returned the salute, "The master of the Yun family said that he laughed"
Then I found a place to do it.
The Yun family is also a family that makes a living from refining medicine, and the meals on the table are all medicinal food, and they are similar to the specifications that were eaten at the Li family.
Yun Lingtian raised his glass first and said, "This time the medicine collection is extremely dangerous, I didn't expect that there would be a fourth-level demon beast appearing, it is really thanks to a few young heroes, the little girl and others can return safely, Yun thanked me first." ”
"The master of the Yun family is polite!"
"Since you have accepted the task, it is a matter of duty, and the Yun family master does not need to be like this"
Chu Ming and the others also raised their glasses.
"There is one more thing" Yun Lingtian said and took out a jade box, which contained a bright red fruit, the surface was shiny, and the rich aura made everyone feel shocked, and pushed the jade box forward
"The little girl can return safely, Yun Mou is already content, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything else, besides, this dragon blood fruit depends on the strength of everyone, and it should be handed over to a few people to deal with. ”
"What does the Yun family master mean by this?" Chen Dong frowned unhappily
"Chen Shaoxia, don't get me wrong, Yun has no other intentions," Yun Lingtian explained
At this time, Chu Ming stood up and said to Yun Lingtian, "We have taken over the task of the sect, and the task requirement is to protect the safety of the medicine collection team, and this dragon blood fruit was picked by a member of the medicine collection team, not from the hands of the self, and the captain of the guard also lost his life, so this fruit is what you deserve, please take it back from the Yun family master."
Chu Ming's words are willing, not contrived.
Su Xin said, "You can accept it, besides, this dragon blood fruit is not a high-grade elixir, it is not uncommon in the sect."
"This ......"
Chen Dong snorted coldly, "Isn't it that the Yun family master thinks that we are short-sighted and coveted your dragon blood fruit?"
Speaking of which, Yun Lingtian no longer shirked.
Because they were all injured, the banquet didn't last long, and before the end, Yun Lingtian gave everyone another 30,000 taels of gold and a bottle of healing elixir. It is equivalent to doubling the remuneration. But this time, everyone didn't shirk anymore and accepted it. After all, this mission is more difficult than expected, and the pay should be increased.
stayed at the Yun family for one night, and the next day Chu Ming, Chen Dong, and Su Xin said goodbye to each other and returned to the sect separately.
It's a good thing to say that there are no years in the mountains, especially for cultivators, time always flies quickly.
Before I knew it, a month had passed.
During this period, Chu Ming, like other sect disciples, cultivated every day and occasionally went to take on tasks. After several missions and actual combat, Chu Ming became more flexible and skilled in the use of martial arts. Especially the last escort mission, and actual combat is an excellent way to cultivate.
Now Chu Ming has broken through one after another, and his cultivation has reached the fifth level of the Spirit Skill Mirror, and he can be regarded as a middle-level martial artist of the Spirit Skill Mirror.
Not only that, because of the cultivation of the Yuan Sage Decision, the amount of Chu Ming's true qi far exceeded that of a martial artist of the same level, and it was extremely sharp, and his aura was pure and vast, and it was easy to be mistaken for a high-level martial artist of the Spirit Mirror if he didn't look carefully.
On this day, Chu Ming had just completed a simple gray-level task, and on the way up the mountain, he found that everyone was walking in a hurry, gathering in the direction of the Martial Arts Square.
Isn't there another order or activity? Puzzled, his feet couldn't help but speed up, catching up with the person in front.
"This fellow disciple, I don't know why you are in such a hurry?"
The man was also unhappy when he was suddenly pulled in his heart, but when he turned his head and felt Chu Ming's mighty breath, he was only the strength of the other party far above him, and he also stopped at the moment and hugged his fists
"You must have just returned to the sect, right?"
"Well, I took over a sect task a few days ago, and I'm about to complete the handover. ”
"No wonder, someone in the sect issued a life-and-death challenge today, and the challenge was the blood blade of one of the top ten disciples of the inner sect, Jiang Shaoqing!"
"Oh, there's such a thing, and what's the other side of the challenge?"
The so-called challenge of life and death is life and death, which is very different from the so-called competition. There is no question of life and death on the life and death platform, and internal fighting is strictly prohibited in the sect, but a life and death ring is set up, which allows disciples with grudges to compete.
But generally speaking, few people will issue life and death challenges, and the ones who are challenged are the top ten disciples of the inner gate, which makes Chu Ming quite puzzled.
"It's rare to see such a scene, and you won't see it when you go late, so we talk as we walk."
"It's fine. "It's okay anyway, and by the way, you can see how strong the inner disciples are, Chu Ming doesn't mind going to join in the fun.
The disciple on the road told Chu Ming the reason for the incident, it turned out that three days ago, another female disciple in the sect went out to do a task, and happened to meet Jiang Shaoqing. It stands to reason that it is also a good thing to have the same experience outside at the same time.
But Jiang Shaoqing didn't know why he was very hurt by the female disciple, and beat her to a coma with serious injuries. I heard that fortunately, I happened to meet Senior Sister Yuan, who is also one of the top ten inner gates, to come to the rescue, otherwise I am afraid that there will be no life to say.
"Huh?" Chu Ming had a bad premonition
The disciple continued: But the female disciple seems to have a sweetheart, and her strength is not low. It is also regarded as a sudden rise in the sect, and it is also quite favored by the three elders of the inner gate, it seems to be called, called Zhou Ze!
What the!
Hey, that's a pity. What a seedling, and I heard that Zhou Ze has an elegant personality and is approachable, and he is quite well received in the sect, but it is a pity that he met Jiang Shaoqing! Hey, the disciple was still talking to himself, and he raised his head to find that Chu Ming was gone.
Chu Ming was hurrying with all his might, heading towards Zhou Ze's residence. The flowing clouds are unleashed, and the whole person is like a gust of wind, leaving a lot of afterimages.
In a quiet wooden house, Zhou Ze was taking care of Zhao Feng on the bed.
At this time, Zhao Feng was very different from usual, he was lying quietly on the bed, his face was pale, and bruises could be seen on the exposed skin. Zhou Ze was wiping her face with a handkerchief, his movements were gentle, and his eyes were full of distress.
Feeling the unusual movement at the door, Zhou Ze smiled faintly, "Feng'er, Chu Ming has come to see you." ”
Before the words fell, Chu Ming pushed the door and walked in, Zhao Feng saw Chu Ming's throat move and wanted to speak, but he didn't say it, and finally had to nod.
It's not a taste to see this scene. After all, these two are his true friends, and they came here together from a small stone wind city. Although they don't usually interact very often, isn't the so-called gentleman's friendship exactly like this?
Whether it is a gentleman Chu Ming doesn't know, but he knows that these two people are his cherished friends, and they are people who can rely on him without worrying about the black hand behind his back. In this world of the jungle, these two points are enough!
He took out a jade bottle from his bosom, which contained the healing elixir he had obtained from the Yun family, and handed it to Zhou Ze.
Without pretentiousness, he put the jade bottle on the head of the bed, reached out and touched Zhao Feng's forehead, and said softly, "You have a good rest first, I'll go out and say a few words to Chu Ming"
......
Leaving the hut, as soon as Chu Ming wanted to speak, Zhou Ze said to Chu Ming lightly, "Thank you for coming to see her, you can go back" The tone was indifferent and scary
"You ......"
"It seems that you have heard about it, but if you come to persuade me, you will be exempted, this matter has nothing to do with you, if you still remember our friendship, in case I can't come back, take good care of her for me"
"Zhou Ze, this is not you. You shouldn't be so impulsive, what about you before? What about your calmness?"
"Calm down! How can you calm down! Look at her! She can't even talk about getting out of bed now! How can you calm me down! Don't talk to me about any long-term! I'll just ask you! Back in Stone Wind City! Why didn't you calm down!"
At this time, Zhou Ze completely lost his usual demeanor, and even his foul mouth exploded. It's like the performance in the room just now!
At this time, he was looking at Chu Ming with bloodshot eyes, and there were faint traces of wetness in the corners of his eyes!
Chu Ming was stunned for a moment! Yes, how similar this was to what happened in Shifeng City at that time! What did he do at that time? It was bearable, but it was unbearable!
The dragon has reverse scales, and if you touch it, you will die! A gentleman is angry, and he will be punished for committing a crime!
Thinking of this, Chu Ming's heart also settled, and he reached out and grabbed Zhou Ze's shoulder.
Zhou Ze was angry at the moment, shook it off heavily, and glared at Chu Ming fiercely.
Without waiting for Zhou Ze to ask, Chu Ming spoke first, "I'll go with you!"
