Chapter 15: Killing in the Jungle
After Xu Yan left, the blue-clothed shopkeeper walked up to Qin Yao and said with a wry smile: "Elder, not only did we not make any money in this business, but we also lost a lot." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The purchase of "Dragon and Tiger Zhuang Gu San" Danfang is 300,000 taels, this price is already higher than the daily purchase standard of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, in addition, the ice silkworm gloves sold to Xu Yan are actually reported as the cost price, and on this basis, they are discounted by eight, of course, they only lose money.
Qin Yao was the master of everything, and he, the shopkeeper, could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
Qin Yao pursed her lips, her eyes lit up with a little brilliance, and said, "Is it? ”
"But ......" The shopkeeper understood the meaning of Qin Yao's words, but he still couldn't figure it out, "Xu Yan is the prince, but his foundation is too weak, I'm afraid it will be ...... to invest in him."
"If I hadn't met him, maybe I'd come to the same conclusion as you. Qin Yao's face became serious, and he said: "When I saw it today, this person's appearance and bearing are not bad, and the rumors are completely two people. ”
The influence of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce spreads all over the country, and although it does not rely on the power of the court, it still needs to maintain the necessary connections, especially to invest in young talents.
"In addition, I always feel that Xu Yan is far more than what the outside world sees. At least, I can't see through him. ”
Qin Yao nodded at the "Dragon Tiger Zhuanggu San" Dan Fang on the table, and continued: "The value of this Dan Fang should not be underestimated, if it is not for the high cost of medicine, its value is no less than a top exercise. ”
"What does the president mean is that there is a master behind him?" the shopkeeper guessed with Qin Yao's words.
Qin Yao shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. In short, keep an eye on Xu Yan. ”
"Since the elder can think clearly, then I won't worry about it, just do what you say. The shopkeeper nodded suddenly, believing Qin Yao's vision and judgment.
"Pass on my meaning, in the future, whether Xu Yan is in the Great Xia Kingdom or the Wu Kingdom, as long as he goes to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce to make it as convenient as possible. Qin Yao's tone changed, and he instructed the shopkeeper to give news to the branches of various countries, and listed Xu Yan as a VIP preferential treatment.
Qin Yao couldn't judge Xu Yan, but she had a woman's intuition.
"Don't let me down, little one, or I'll lose my face. Qin Yao's beautiful eyes were shining, and she had a charming look.
Xu Yan didn't know what was happening behind him, left the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, and went to the medicinal herb shop again.
The ice silkworm gloves were discounted by 20%, and the actual cost was more than 250,000 taels of silver, and only more than 40,000 taels of the 300,000 taels sold in "Dragon and Tiger Strong Bone Scatter" were left, counting the more than 10,000 taels in his hand before, Xu Yan still had a total of 60,000 taels.
"One pack of Dragon Tiger Bone Powder is a five-day supply, and the formula costs 10,000 taels. The five pairs of medicine packs configured before have more than ten days of use left, and there is still some time before the appointment battle a month later, and three medicine packs need to be purchased to be enough. ”
After careful calculation, this alone cost 30,000 taels of silver, and there was not much silver left in an instant.
Spending money is like dirt, but the medicine can't be stopped, although his acupuncture points have been sealed and the income has been greatly reduced, but Xu Yan understands that this aspect cannot be saved.
"With this pair of ice silkworm gloves, the certainty of defeating that jade ring snake is much greater, as long as you get the jasper vermilion fruit, there is a way to relieve the cold in your body. Xu Yan rubbed the ice silkworm gloves, and the slightest coldness passed into his palm.
The ice silkworm glove is not invaded by water, fire, and poison, the only fly in the ointment is that it only covers the palm of the hand to the wrist area, and if the rest of the body is bitten by the jade ring snake, Xu Yan still has the threat of poisoning.
There were still twelve days before the jasper and vermilion fruit ripened, and Xu Yan decided to go three days in advance.
In the remaining nine days, Xu Yan ate and cultivated as usual, and although the progress of his cultivation was slow, everything was orderly.
While cultivating, Xu Yan also made an unexpected discovery. The medicinal power that he refined and absorbed by himself did not actually disappear, but because of the suppression of the cold qi, the medicinal power could not be fully transformed into internal breath and hidden in the body.
Once Xu Yan lifted the cold qi blockade at the acupuncture points, his strength might be able to improve by leaps and bounds, which strengthened his determination to cultivate.
Time passed in a flash, and nine days later, Xu Yan prepared all the belongings, called Xiao Dezi in front of him, and advised: "My son is in retreat for three days, and none of you are allowed to enter the room to disturb him." Whoever dares to disobey will be guilty of one capital offense!"
Xiao Dezi shrunk his neck, nodded violently, and said, "Xiao understands, I will definitely order to go down and never disturb the son." ”
Although relying on the order of Manager Zhen, Xiao Dezi dared to block the door and not let Xu Yan go out, but he did not dare to disobey the other orders given by Xu Yan as a servant.
"Let's go down. Xu Yan waved his hand, and Xiao Dezi closed the door and left.
"Fortunately, Manager Zhen didn't send someone to keep an eye on him 24 hours a day, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get out. Xu Yan secretly rejoiced, and after thinking about it, it was estimated that Manager Zhen might not have taken him too seriously, so he despised him so much.
Mr. Zhen is in charge of this kind of innate realm character, if he really wants to deal with himself, it is as simple as killing an ant.
Confirming that there was no one around, Xu Yan opened the window and closed it again, quietly crossed the backyard wall, and went straight to Fengming Mountain outside the city.
The last time he left Fengming Mountain, Xu Yan made secret notes along the way, and in order to avoid being followed, he made a few circles before heading towards the cave where Jasper Zhuguo was.
Fengming Mountain is a primeval mountain forest, but it is located near the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, so there are many warriors who come and go here, and it is considered the royal hunting ground of the Great Xia Kingdom, Xu Yan has to be cautious.
More than ten miles away from Xu Yan, a group of people and horses were resting in the forest, and this group of people were wearing the uniforms of the Great Xia Army, leading high-headed horses and carrying longbows. The young man who was surrounded by everyone in the center was none other than Chen Feng.
Chen Feng sat in front of the campfire with a big grin, eating roasted game, and holding a wine jug in one hand and drinking it on his back.
"The harvest of this hunt is not small, and Childe's bow skills have increased greatly. Several people gathered around and laughed.
For the flattery of the people around him, Chen Feng rolled his eyes. Seeing that Chen Feng's interest was not high, everyone around him diverted the topic with interest, and did not dare to touch his moldy head again.
Recently, Chen Feng's mood was low, and in order to relax, he brought a team of family members to Fengming Mountain to hunt. He caught a lot of prey along the way, but his depression didn't dispel much.
If nothing else, everything is still related to Xu Yan.
Chen Feng is the second son of the Chen family, his qualifications are not outstanding, and he is not too young to be far from the inner rest realm. And his eldest brother, Chen Long, not only broke through the middle stage of the Inner Breath Realm in one fell swoop, but also promoted to the late stage of the Inner Rest Realm in this retreat, and the gap between the two was suddenly wide.
Chen Feng knew that he was not as good as his eldest brother, so he usually scolded Murong Yan and other princes very much, which could be regarded as making a plan for the future. But he didn't expect that when he dealt with Xu Yan for Murong Yan, he finally had to make a move from his brother Chen Long, and Chen Feng felt more and more ********.
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Feng was in a violent mood, and attributed the source of all his anger to Xu Yan.
"A waste prince, if he was defeated in Jinkui Tower that day, how could he have today's situation. Chen Feng took a bite of the game.
A lean scout came out of the forest and reported to Chen Fengyu, "Childe, guess what I found?"
"If you have something to say, let it go!" Chen Feng snorted and said impatiently.
This scout was Chen Feng's henchman, who knew his master's recent troubles, and whispered in his ear: "I found Xu Yan's whereabouts, alone, hehe!"
"Xu Yan, you said he was in Fengming Mountain?" Chen Feng stood up with a loud voice, picked up the collar of the scout, and said loudly.
"That's right, it's Xu Yan. I saw him on the other side of the woods, and I would not have been mistaken. The scout described it fifteen-ten.
Chen Feng put down the scout, clapped his hands and laughed: "Hahaha, God really helps me! Xu Yan, Xu Yan, I didn't expect you to dare to come to Fengming Mountain, this time I will let you die a happy death." ”
Without Chen Feng having to say anything, the surrounding generals immediately turned over and got on their horses, and a group of seven people chased in the direction pointed by the scout.
Xu Yan was shuttling through the forest, when he suddenly pricked up his ears and stopped, and the sound of horses' hooves in the distance was getting closer and closer.
"This is close to the edge of the depths of the mountain, aren't you afraid of attracting fierce beasts when you run wild?" Xu Yan frowned, he didn't know what the other party was about, and he was about to hide his body, and the person who came had already run into sight.
"Xu Yanxiu is leaving!" Chen Feng drove a cyan horse and rushed to Xu Yan first.
Xu Yan didn't expect the other party to come so quickly, and when he saw that the person who came was Chen Feng, he couldn't help but secretly touch out the ice silkworm gloves and quietly put them on his hands.
"It turned out to be you, what's the matter? You want to ask me to ride a horse again, and then accidentally fall off the cliff?" Xu Yan smiled slightly, his eyes looking directly into Chen Feng's eyes.
Chen Feng's heart trembled, and then he realized that Xu Yan's skills were not weak now, and he was almost certain that he was a martial artist of the Inner Breath Realm, and he was not his opponent.
"I'm afraid of what he will do! I can't beat him alone, but I have six helpers, can't I kill him?" Chen Feng smiled in his heart, glanced at the people around him, and the group tacitly dispersed and faintly surrounded Xu Yan.
These six people are all generals trained by the Chen family since childhood, needless to say, the degree of loyalty is needless to say, and they have all been trained on the battlefield.
Although they are not Inner Breath Realm martial artists, they are good at cooperating, and two of them are not inferior in strength to the Eagle King, and they have also been undefeated against Inner Breath Realm martial artists on the battlefield in the past.
If you add yourself, Chen Feng is 100% sure that he will kill Xu Yan on the spot.
Chen Feng's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he roared in his heart: "There is no need for any competition, as long as Xu Yan is killed, the biggest credit is mine, and no one can take it away!"
