Chapter 7: The Hunter
Jiang Hua staggered to the room where Hua Xiaoxi was, and used all his strength to push the door open, and the moment the door was suddenly pushed open, his body stumbled and he almost fell forward.
Qi Ming's palm just now shattered several of her sternums, and although her life was not in danger, she had to recuperate for several months before she could fully recover.
Hua Xiaoxi didn't expect someone to disturb her so late at night, and she pushed the door open so rudely, she was very angry!
However, she casually put on a coat and came out, and when she saw Jiang Hua leaning on the threshold weakly, her angry face became stunned.
Originally, she thought that Jiang Hua would definitely be able to succeed, but where did she think that Jiang Hua would be hit hard?
Stunned, there was even more anger, couldn't he even kill a very humble subordinate???
"That young man is very powerful, his cultivation is at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm or higher, I can't even resist a move. Jiang Hua wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with difficulty.
Hua Xiaoxi was a little surprised, and snorted coldly casually, "Be nosy, look for death!"
"Miss, he said that he just wanted to save Wen'er's life, and he didn't want to offend Miss, if something happened like this, did Miss just let them leave the City Lord's Mansion?" Jiang Hua relayed Qi Ming's meaning.
"Hmph, how is this possible!" Hua Xiaoxi now not only wants to get rid of Wen'er, but even Qi Ming, a nosy guy, wants to get rid of it, "You go back and rest for one night, and then find a 'jackal' to lure that kid out of the City Lord's Mansion and kill him." ”
Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then turned around and left.
There is a profession in the Ice Spirit Dynasty called Hunter. The Hunter class is derived from a bounty list under the Ice Demon Gate.
Anyone can post a quest on the bounty list, as long as there is enough spirit ice.
Anyone can take on the quest on the bounty list, as long as they have enough strength.
Those who survive on the bounty list are called "Hunters", and "Hunters" may be a person or a squad.
Points are determined by the number and difficulty of the tasks completed by the "Hunter", and the points are ranked from the highest to the ground, and the higher the score, the more powerful the Hunter is.
If you don't want to post a quest on the bounty list, you can also find a designated hunter to carry out the quest, but you need to pay some intermediary fees.
The "jackal" that Hua Xiaoxi said is the most powerful "hunter" in the border desert city, and the three people in the group are all at the peak of the Linghai Realm, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and they have the record of joining forces to kill the early stage of the Tongnian Realm. If you ask them to make a move, you will get at least 100,000 catties of spirit ice.
100,000 catties of spirit ice is also a huge amount of money for Hua Xiaoxi, she doesn't have that much in her hands at all, but she can ask the elders of the City Lord's Mansion to advance some spirit ice, in order to deal with Qi Ming and Wen'er, she has really made a lot of money.
"I originally wanted her to disappear quietly, but since someone wants you to live so much, I will let you die the most painfully. Hua Xiaoxi muttered to herself, with a look of resentment.
Qi Ming originally thought that he had exposed his strength, and Hua Xiaoxi should give him a face, but he miscalculated the hatred in Hua Xiaoxi's heart at the moment.
After Qi Ming repelled Jiang Hua, he returned to the hut. As soon as he came in, he saw Wen'er sitting on the bed looking this way.
He saw the tears on Wen'er's face.
He didn't hear a choked voice when he sat in the room just now, and she was in silent tears.
Qi Ming walked to the side of the bed, read the tears in the corners of her eyes with her hand, and comforted softly: "Some people are not worth being sad for him." ”
Wen'er said very firmly: "I'm going to go to him now and ask for an explanation." ”
"Let's go, then!" Qi Ming said.
Although it was late at night, and although Wen'er was in a very unstable mood right now, Qi Ming wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
Wen'er didn't expect Qi Ming to agree so simply, she was stunned for a moment, and then quickly got up from the bed, put on a big hat, and walked towards Zhang Yang's place with Qi Ming.
This is the first time Wen'er has taken the initiative to find Zhang Yang, but it is somewhat sad that Zhang Yang is not in the house.
Qi Ming was sure that Zhang Yang was indeed not in the room, so he left Wen'er alone in this room, turned around and went to a room next to him, and sneaked in directly.
With Qi Ming's current strength, it was very simple to sneak into the room of the disciples of the City Lord's Mansion and put a short sword on their necks.
The disciple of the City Lord's Mansion who was sleeping felt a cold sensation in his neck, and he woke up in an instant, and was about to sit up, when he felt a pain in his neck.
"Don't move, or you won't live. Qi Ming whispered.
"Who are you?" The unlucky disciple who was selected by Qi Ming immediately knew the situation in front of him, immediately stopped moving, and asked calmly.
"It doesn't matter who I am, answer my questions honestly. Qi Ming said coldly, "Where did Zhang Yang next door go?"
The unlucky disciple who was forced to lie on the ground cursed in his heart, and said with a slight coldness on the surface, "I don't know. ”
The disciple in front of him was still too young, if Qi Ming encountered this situation, he would definitely be very calm and lure away the stranger in front of him.
"Do you know about Zhang Yang and Hua Xiaoxi?" Qi Ming frowned and asked again.
"The disciples of the City Lord's Mansion know about this. The unlucky disciple replied coldly.
Qi Ming's left hand slashed at the neck of the unlucky disciple, and the unlucky disciple fainted directly.
"It's really giving you face!" Qi Ming originally wanted to ask a few words, but he found that this disciple had a big temper, so he didn't have the heart to ask any more, and directly knocked him unconscious.
Qi Ming didn't waste much time, and returned to Wen'er, who was sitting stupidly in the flamboyant room, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Zhang Yang is not here, we will come back tomorrow. Qi Ming's voice interrupted Wen'er's thoughts, she didn't know what to do now, so she could only let Qi Ming deal with these things, and nodded obediently.
Qi Ming just wanted Wen'er to go back to rest quickly, but he didn't expect that he didn't see Zhang Yang tonight, which led to Wen'er's tragedy tomorrow.
......
Since Qi Ming wanted to leave with Wen'er directly, he didn't let Wen'er go to the laundry room to work the next day.
Wen'er still didn't want to go to Zhang Yang during the day, for fear that others would see it. Her thoughts were very chaotic, and she didn't eat much of the breakfast that Qi Ming asked Steward Li to bring.
Qi Ming couldn't do anything, she could only come out of this trauma by herself.
Qi Ming moved a stool and sat outside the door, basking in the sun, and said in a lazy tone: "It's still cool to bask in the sun!"
Wen'er, who was in the room, saw Qi Ming sitting at the door wearing a thin green shirt, so she took out a few pieces of animal fur from her treasure and sewed a robe according to Qi Ming's size.
When she got busy, she forgot about the, and when a robe was ready, she realized that the day had passed again.
Qi Ming came in from outside the house and said to Wen'er: "It's getting dark, you pack up your things, and we'll leave here after seeing Zhang Yang." If you have a lot of stuff, I can carry it for you, and I have room left in my storage ring. ”
"Come here. Wen'er raised her head and called out in unison with a shallow smile.
Qi Ming was a little strange, but he still walked to Wen'er's side.
Wen'er cut the last thread, picked up the freshly sewn robe, and turned behind Qi Ming to help him put it on, "Try it, does it fit?"
"For me?" Qi Ming was a little surprised, he thought that Wen'er had made it for Zhang Yang! When Wen'er was making a robe, Qi Ming not only scolded Zhang Yang to death in his heart, but also scolded Wen'er as a super fool by the way.
Why didn't he expect that the robe was made for himself, although he tried his best to make Wen'er just to repay Wen'er, and he didn't ask for anything, but Wen'er made him a robe, and he was still very moved.
"I see that you are not used to the climate here when you first came here, so I will sew you a thick robe to make you less cold!" Wen'er said softly.
"It's really warm and fits perfectly. Qi Ming smiled and said, "Thank you!"
When Wen'er saw the young smiling face close at hand, she suddenly felt very warm, and felt less sad, so she smiled back.
Qi Ming's face suddenly froze, and he ran out of the house quickly.
Wen'er didn't know what was going on, and ran out after Qi Ming.
At this moment, there were three more people outside the room out of thin air.
A one-eyed middle-aged man stood in the courtyard, his only remaining eye fixed on Qi Ming's face.
A young man with an inch-long scar on his forehead sat on a corner of the roof, his left leg dangling in the air, his right hand resting on top of his folded right leg, his left hand playing with a dagger, and an uninhibited smile on his lips.
There was also a handsome man standing on the roof, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and the cold wind blew his shirt, and he looked personable.
After Qi Ming saw the middle-aged man opposite, he glanced back at the dissolute young man sitting in the corner of the roof and the personable man standing directly above the roof, smiled lightly, and said, "Three Spirit Sea Realm peaks, such a strong murderous aura, you are not from the City Lord's Mansion, right?"
Wen'er, who was behind Qi Ming, heard Qi Ming say this, and her heart suddenly cooled in half, is such a powerful powerhouse coming for herself?
"I thought that this mission would not be difficult, but I was a little surprised. The youngest man sitting in the corner of the roof raised the corners of his mouth, looked at Qi Ming and asked, "I don't know if you've ever heard of 'jackals'?"
Qi Ming replied with a smile: "Jackal, it's just a beast!"
Wen'er whispered behind Qi Ming: "Jackal, he is the most powerful hunter in the border desert city, extremely ferocious!"
As for the concept of a hunter, Wen'er had told Qi Ming when he first woke up.
Qi Ming didn't seem to hear Wen'er's words, and his face was still calm.
The young man's face turned cold, the scar on his forehead looked even more terrifying, he looked at Qi Ming's plain face, he felt very disgusted, and then his left hand was raised, and the dagger in his hand flew out.
Shoot at Wen'er behind Qi Ming!
