Chapter 49: The Firebird
Shang Ling'er turned her head and glared at Zhang Feng, "You are inexplicable! I know that I am awake and scared alone, but I want to close my eyes and pretend to be asleep." I treat you as a friend, and it's disgusting that you are so cold. ”
Zhang Feng sneered: "Are you embarrassed to say that I am indifferent? When I was in Cliff City, there were bad people who wanted to kill me, and you could help me, but you refused to let your guards take action, that was indifference." That is, I am open-minded by nature, I don't care, and I am desperate to save you today. ”
Shang Ling'er said loudly: "Who wants you to save you, don't expect me to be grateful to you, next time someone wants to kill you, I will still stand by and watch you die." ”
These words really taught Zhang Feng to chill, he sneered vigorously and didn't say a word.
Shang Ling'er also stopped talking, looking at the fire with a confused look, and the taste in his heart was difficult to distinguish. I don't know how long I sat there, but the quiet ancient forest gradually sounded with birdsong, and it was already dawn.
After a while, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the distance, I don't know whether it was friend or foe, the three people on the formation were all nervous, and they stood up together, stretched their necks to look at the direction where the footsteps were approaching.
Those people came very quickly, and after a few moments, they were already in their sight, led by a young man and more than a dozen old men, none of whom were from the caravan.
Zhang Feng was taken aback, it turned out that the enemy had arrived!
was in a daze, and Shang Ling'er beside him suddenly shouted: "Brother, why are you here?" and then jumped up from the formation platform and floated towards the comer.
Seeing the situation, the young man also jumped up, caught Shang Ling'er, and the two of them made two spins in mid-air before they landed on the ground together.
Shang Ling'er buried her head in the young man's arms and cried and said, "Brother, I was almost killed this time." ”
The young man hugged her tightly and said softly: "I know everything, it is the five sons of the Yan family who did it, they are dead, their main family is the Yun family, the soul family of the earth country, I will definitely go to the earth country to take this breath for you." ”
Shang Ling'er said: "Even if you destroy the Yun family, I don't know what strange opponents there will be. I've been stabbed several times in the past year or so, and I'm fed up. It's all because my father wants to fight for the position of patriarch, provoking the fourth uncle, and causing us to be scared all the time. ”
At this time, Shang Xiuyun appeared, she walked to the two of them, "Ling'er, isn't it okay now, why are you crying?" Fourth uncle, you don't have to be afraid of that old guy, the competition for the position of the head of the Shang family is more than the hearts of the people, that old guy wanted to stab you to deter your father before, but it was not tolerated by the clan rules, and now it is a taboo for the merchant to involve outsiders. In my opinion, he must have reached the end of his rope before he made this decision, and he should not be able to toss for a few days. ”
When Shang Ling'er saw Shang Xiuyun, she immediately threw herself into her arms and said with a sobbing voice: "Sister, you're okay, I've been worried about you." ”
Shang Xiuyun said lightly: "Your sister and I are very capable, how can there be anything." ”
Shang Ling'er asked: "Uncle Qiu went to save you, did you see him?" As she spoke, she couldn't stop looking at the crowd that was gradually gathering, but she couldn't find Akita's shadow, she panicked and asked: "Sister, you said, Uncle Qiu went to the gold and earth positions of the Soul Shifting Array, didn't you meet him?"
Shang Xiuyun sighed, "When my brother and I rushed to the gold throne, he only had one breath left. Before he died, he instructed me to send a message to you, so that you must take care of the descendants of the Twelve Secret Guards in the future. ”
Shang Ling'er was stunned when she heard this, and her tears began to flow down uncontrollably, and she muttered, "The twelve secret guards, all of them are dead." ”
Shang Xiuyun said impatiently: "You know crying, in our family, you are the most useless." No matter how sad you cry, will Qiu Bo come back to life? At this time, you should think about how to avenge him. ”
The young man frowned slightly, "Xiuyun, it's just that you don't comfort Ling'er, why do you blame her?"
Shang Xiuyun pursed her lips, "You always talk to her." ”
The young man glanced at her, walked straight to the platform, and said to Scarface, "You are Scarface, right?" Qiu Bo left a last word, saying that your Savior has merit and should be rewarded, and asked me to go to the slave status for you, and take you to the Xiude Academy in the Mu Kingdom to practice. From now on, you will be a master of our business. ”
Scarface didn't recognize the person and didn't respond. The young man smiled slightly and looked at Zhang Feng, "I heard that you have a divine weapon, can you lend it to me?"
The young man is as plump as jade, his aura is magnificent, the faint smile on the corner of his mouth has an inexplicable affinity, and when he speaks, his tone is gentle, and there is no arrogance, Zhang Feng can't help but have a good feeling.
Although he didn't hear the conversation between the young man and the two eldest ladies of the business, looking at their demeanor, he had already guessed that this extraordinary son should be the elder brother mentioned by Shang Ling'er, and he didn't think this person would rob him of his treasure.
After a moment's hesitation, he pulled out the stone chip and handed it to the young man.
The young man looked at it carefully for a moment and asked politely, "Can you sell me this thing?"
Zhang Feng shook his head, "This is my family heirloom, and it can't be sold." ”
The young man smiled, "In that case, then I won't think about it." Then he returned the stone chips to Zhang Feng.
Shang Xiuyun came over, opened his mouth and said: "Boy, this thing is a disaster, many people will rob it, maybe it will make you lose your life, let's sell it to us, my sister will never let you suffer, give you a million yuan in coins, how about it?"
Zhang Fengshang replied, and the young man took the first step and said, "Xiuyun, you have made this old mistake again." Kid, my sister is right, the Divine Soldier is indeed a disaster, as long as he shows up, it will inevitably lead to a scramble. Weigh it yourself, and if you are willing to cut your love, I am willing to buy it for 50 million yuan. ”
This number surprised Zhang Feng, and he finally knew how precious this stone chip really was. But now that he had a lot of money, 50 million dollars seemed of no practical use to him. After thinking about it, he still decided not to sell it: "I'm really sorry, this thing has been passed down for many generations, I can't let it be lost in my hands." ”
The young man said, "Then you have to keep it well, so that the bad guys don't see it." In the future, if someone wants to rob it, you will say that this is the treasure that the ninth young master of the merchant likes first, and it may be able to scare off a few people. ”
Shang Xiuyun said angrily: "Brother, this kid doesn't know how to lift, why are you still supporting him?"
The young man said, "Have you forgotten what Qiu Bo said? This kid saved Ling'er, so we can't treat him badly." ”
When Zhang Feng heard him mention Uncle Qiu, he asked, "Have you seen Uncle Qiu?"
The young man nodded, "He's dead." ”
Zhang Feng was stunned when he heard this, although that old man had a strange temper and was annoying, but after all, he was the leader of his cultivation, and he had great kindness to him. He sighed, hung his head, and did not speak.
Suddenly, he thought of the bald uncle, and raised his head uneasily: "Is the business manager okay?"
"He was seriously injured, but he is alive," the young man said. ”
After hearing this, Zhang Feng immediately left the formation, rushed into the crowd gathered nearby, and soon found the bald uncle. This always energetic man was lying on a stretcher made of branches and grass, covered in blood and his face was pale.
Zhang Feng held his hand and said sadly, "Uncle Bald, why are you so badly injured?"
Uncle Bald smiled reluctantly, "That old guy sitting in the gold position is too strong, I'm lucky to be alive, what is this injury." ”
Zhang Feng saw that the bald uncle could still laugh, he relaxed slightly, and was about to say a few words of comfort, when he suddenly felt that someone was patting him on the shoulder, and when he turned his head, he turned his head and saw that it was a second stunned person crying. He said happily: "Brother Yi, it's really good that you're okay." ”
The second stunned man laughed and said, "I'm worried about you too, we can be regarded as having escaped death this time." ”
Zhang Feng sighed: "Before I went to the outside world, I almost lost my life, and the two of us were really unlucky." ”
The second stunned man smiled and said, "There are a few very powerful people in the caravan, and there shouldn't be any danger in the future." ”
Zhang Feng disagreed: "You don't know how to practice, how can you see who is powerful or not? Even if you are really powerful, who can guarantee that there will not be more powerful enemies to cause trouble?"
As he was talking, he suddenly heard the young man announce in a loud voice: "The soul transfer array has been broken, and the people to be saved have also been saved, now everyone will find their lost partners, meet here at noon, and then go on the road together." ”
Then, above the young man's head, a flock of firebirds appeared, all of them very small, no more than half a foot long, but they were numerous, and they looked like a red cloud at first glance.
The firebird hovered in mid-air for a moment, then gradually dispersed and flew away far away.
Zhang Feng was dumbfounded, wasn't this exactly the scene he had been fascinated with before? One day, he must be like that young man, who can drive countless firebirds with his mental power.
