Chapter 26: Bargaining
"It's not impossible to do things for you, but let's say it first, I won't take risks if it's too dangerous. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Xu Yan gritted his teeth and said, under the coercion of Manager Zhen, he had no choice but to refuse, so he could only negotiate the conditions step by step.
"Also, if the task is related to Huang Zu, I think it's better to forget it. Huang Zu is an Innate Realm martial artist, what kind of heart can an Inner Breath Realm martial artist play in front of me?"
Manager Zhen said with a smile: "This task is really related to Huang Zu, it is the most suitable for you to do it, aren't you the most clever? ”
"Ah, I'm not going, I'm not going!" Xu Yan's head shook into a rattle, while observing the change in Manager Zhen's expression, he said: "You are in the innate realm, even you can't solve it, what's the use of sending me there?"
Manager Zhen was extra patient today and explained: "It is precisely because of my high status that once I show up, I will arouse his vigilance. On the contrary, you are different, and it is more convenient for you to do things than I am. ”
Xu Yan was speechless, he was really afraid of something, he was involved in the battle between the martial artists of the Innate Realm for no reason, it was undoubtedly like walking on thin ice, and the slightest carelessness would lead to death.
Don't look at Huang Zu personally coming forward to protect Xu Yan, that is, Xu Yan is still valuable to him, and the two have no conflict of interest for the time being.
Although he didn't know what Manager Zhen wanted to do, he had been planning for so long, it must be of the same significance to Huang Zu. Once Xu Yan is recognized, he must have died a miserable death.
promised, may be recognized by Huang Zu. If he didn't agree, Manager Zhen couldn't spare Xu Yan either, and the dilemma was really a headache.
"You don't have the right to refuse. Manager Zhen stared at Xu Yan coldly, and the atmosphere in the room was suddenly depressed.
Xu Yan clenched his hands and asked unwillingly: "Then what do you want me to do, you have to tell me first." ”
"Actually, it's not that hard. Chief Manager Zhen retracted his breath and said, "You will find a way to gain Huang Zu's trust and sneak into Tianlong Temple, figure out the architectural pattern inside, draw a map and give it to me." Remember, make sure you look into every corner and don't miss anything!"
Xu Yan was puzzled, is Tianlong Temple so mysterious? Even Manager Zhen couldn't get a map inside?
"It's an easy task, but it's hard to say. Manager Zhen continued: "Tianlong Temple is divided into an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard, the outer courtyard is open to the public, and the inner courtyard is closed all year round. The last time you saw Huang Zu, you entered the inner courtyard. ”
Mr. Zhen's real purpose is not just a map of the inner courtyard, he must be looking for a certain passage, or a certain item.
The inner courtyard is not open to the public, idlers and other people cannot enter, and the people inside do not go out, and Manager Zhen has no way to remove the environment inside. If Manager Zhen sneaks in, he may be discovered by Huang Zu, who is also in the congenital realm, and he will startle the snake.
Xu Yan thought carefully that when he entered Tianlong Temple at that time, he didn't notice anything special.
As for Manager Zhen's real purpose, since he didn't say it, Xu Yan wouldn't ask. Sometimes, the more you know, the more trouble you have, Xu Yan avoids it, how can he get to the bottom of it.
"As long as you handle this well, I guarantee that you will return to the martial kingdom safely. Manager Zhen swore an oath.
Xu Yan pursed his lips and scolded in his heart: "What kind of reward is this, it's just too insincere." ”
Chief Manager Zhen's sharp eyes seemed to penetrate Xu Yan's thoughts, and he said slowly: "Do you think that with Huang Zu's strong guarantee, you will be able to return to the Martial Kingdom?" Perhaps, he can indeed protect your safety in the Great Xia Kingdom for a while, but many people in the Martial Kingdom don't want you to go back, and Huang Zu can't control what happens after leaving Great Xia. ”
Xu Yan's face was awe-inspiring, what Manager Zhen said was right, there were many ways for a single queen to make him disappear on the way back to Wuguo.
As long as you draw a map of Tianlong Temple, after four months, you will return to the Martial Kingdom safely and be the prince of the Martial Kingdom. Manager Zhen said in a seductive tone.
Xu Yan muttered in his heart, "I don't want to be the prince of the Martial Kingdom." When the time comes, you take your Yangguan Road, and I will take my single-plank bridge. Xu Yan made up his mind, as long as he left the boundary of the Great Xia Kingdom, he would find an opportunity to escape and let the Wu Kingdom go to hell.
Although Xu Yan did not plan to return to Wuguo, he still had to agree to the task of Chief Zhen, so as not to arouse his dissatisfaction and suspicion.
"You only need to draw a map of the inner courtyard of Tianlong Temple, there are no other requirements, right?" Xu Yan asked.
Manager Zhen was silent for a moment, and said in a commanding tone: "With your strength, it is enough to be able to do this step." You don't have to worry about what happens after you get the map, and don't ask around. ”
"Okay, no problem. Xu Yan rubbed his hands and said with an expression that was difficult to speak: "You see that my strength is not high now, and it is still too dangerous to sneak into Tianlong Temple." I don't care, but it's not good to affect your plans, isn't it......"
If you want me to do something for you, you have to get some practical benefits, right?
Finally, Manager Zhen asked for himself, Xu Yan didn't want to give up the opportunity, and there would be no store in this village after that.
Manager Zhen fumbled in his sleeve pocket, took out a medicine bottle and threw it to Xu Yan, and said, "There are three Qi Nourishing Pills in it, which will help you in the late stage of your impact on the Inner Breath Realm." ”
Xu Yan lifted the cap of the bottle and sniffed, a smell of herbs, and three dark green pills were lying at the bottom of the bottle.
"It's only three, which is a bit less. Xu Yan frowned, shook his head and sighed.
"Don't get cheap, sell well. Manager Zhen said in a calm tone, "You only have one month." If, in a month, you can't get the map of the inner courtyard of the Tenryu Temple, or the wrong map, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
Xu Yan nodded again and again, and finally sent away Manager Zhen, and the tense heartstrings were loosened a little.
"What is there in the Tianlong Temple that makes him care so much?" Xu Yan touched his chin and looked down in thought.
Since Huang Zu lived in seclusion in Tianlong Temple ten years ago, does he have anything to do with this matter? Whether it is Manager Zhen or Huang Zu, both of them have hidden too many secrets, and Xu Yan has no clue.
After thinking for a while, Xu Yan called Xiao Dezi and asked some more things about Manager Zhen. After some inquiry, Xu Yan deduced several pieces of information.
First, with the status of Chief Zhen, it is a strange thing to appear in the Great Xia Kingdom.
The Great Xia Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom are in a state of truce, but the relationship between the two countries is not harmonious, and there are not many exchanges between each other, so there is no need to send an Innate Realm martial artist to sit here.
Moreover, it was impossible for the Great Xia Kingdom to ignore the fact that an Innate Realm martial artist was walking around his territory wantonly.
Second, Manager Zhen has stayed in Great Xia for more than two years, and if he really wants something, he has not seen any movement and harvest for such a long time.
Xu Yan speculated that the first point may be because Manager Zhen has always been low-key, and Da Xia doesn't know his true strength. As for the second point, I am afraid that it is also because Manager Zhen is cautious, so the progress is slow, so he has not been able to succeed.
Or, the people of the Great Xia Kingdom are well protected, and Manager Zhen can't get it easily.
What is it, or the purpose, that makes Chief Zhen manage an Innate Realm martial artist who has been operating in the Great Xia Kingdom for so long?
Xu Yan couldn't guess and didn't bother to guess, the most important thing now was how to sneak into Tianlong Temple and get a detailed map of the inner courtyard.
"After some bargaining, I finally gained something. Xu Yan threw away the medicine bottle in his hand, compared to the promise of returning to the martial country safely, the three Qi Nourishing Pills in front of him were the most real.
Qi nourishing pill, a first-order high-grade elixir, a good product for nourishing internal breath.
Different from Dragon Tiger Zhuang Gu San, Dragon Tiger Zhuang Gu San mainly tempers and strengthens the body, and the effect is focused on accumulating over time, while the Qi Nourishing Pill is an explosive enhancement of the power of internal breath, and the best effect is taken when impacting the realm.
Because of Huang Zu's wisp of breath, Xu Yan temporarily reached the late stage of the Inner Breath Realm, but there was still some distance from the true realm breakthrough.
