Chapter 61: The Mountain Rain is Coming
Chijin Dynasty, Yancheng.
On the bustling streets, the mixed sounds kept coming out, and the scorching sun swayed down, which was completely divided by the chaotic crowd, and only the mottled reflection was left on the ground.
Survival is a choice between hunting and being hunted, especially in this region where the jungle preys. Therefore, on the market, many mercenaries who hunted from the Red Flame Desert are also selling the prey they have exchanged for blood.
"Hey, the double claws of the sand scorpion in the Red Flame Desert are absolutely the best quality, as long as eight hundred gold coins, don't miss it when you pass by!"
In the midst of the chaos of the market, a bearded mercenary waved a huge claw like a tree trunk in his hand, and kept shouting at passers-by. However, the result was obviously unsatisfactory, and the passers-by did not even have the intention of stopping in front of him......
The mercenary was obviously quite disappointed as well, and it was never a pleasant thing for the hard work to be ignored.
sighed helplessly, and when the bearded man was about to close the stall, an equally rough voice suddenly sounded:
"Brother, your sand scorpion's double claws are a good thing, but do you know why you can't sell them?"
The bearded man looked up, and was immediately startled, and in front of his eyes, there was already a face that was also full of stubble. At this moment, the owner of that face was pointing at the sand scorpion and commented: "The sand scorpion can be called the peak existence among the second-level mysterious beasts, but ...... It's the best quality, but it's not the same. ”
The bearded man looked at the criss-crossed sword marks on the pair of scorpion claws, patted the mercenary on the shoulder, and said with great regret: "Brother, if you don't even know how to lie, I'm afraid this deal won't be done......
The mercenary smiled awkwardly, and then said with some curiosity: "Looking at the eldest brother's outfit, he looks like a mercenary, but he looks very ......."
The bearded man smiled heartily, and then pointed to the pair of scorpion claws and said, "It is indeed a mercenary, and you will not suffer a loss if you sell me this pair of scorpion claws for six hundred gold coins." Haha, a lot of scorpions have been killed in the desert, and a pair of chelas have not been brought back, and I didn't think that I could get a pair here, which can be regarded as a souvenir. ”
"Okay. ”
The mercenary happily cleaned up the stall, and didn't forget to ask: "Big brother, your mercenary group is powerful enough, in the Red Flame Desert, scorpions generally come in groups, and it will take a lot of effort to kill them." ”
The bearded man touched his head, then dragged a man dressed as a mercenary beside him, shoved two thick scorpion claws into the latter's arms, and said with some embarrassment: "Where am I so powerful? If I hadn't met a young man who had an old relationship with our regiment leader this time, I am afraid that our mercenary group would have been wiped out in the Red Flame Desert......
"Aha. ”
The mercenary grinned, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said honestly: "In that case, this young man must be very powerful, and I don't know when I will reach that level." Hehe, by that time, I must get the best kiln sister in Yancheng. ”
"Haha, brother work hard, I wish you to get that kiln sister as soon as possible. ”
The bearded man showed an equally obscene smile, patted the mercenary on the shoulder, and then yelled at the rear: "Xiao Zhao, hurry up and carry this pair of scorpion claws back, with this thing, the brothers are bragging with others, and their confidence is a few points higher." ”
"Okay. ”
The young man behind the bearded man answered, and as soon as his body moved, the two rather huge scorpion claws were held on his shoulders. was about to leave, but in front of him, he was suddenly covered by a shadow.
"You just said ...... Your mercenary group killed a group of scorpions in the Red Flame Desert?"
A cold voice instantly resounded on the street, and the kind of coldness contained in it even made Xiao Zhao feel that his body was almost frozen, and the scorpion claw he was carrying fell to the ground in the next moment, making a muffled sound.
The bearded man behind him looked awkward, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he took a step forward, blocking Xiao Zhao behind him without leaving a trace:
"This friend, my brother is cowardly, don't scare him...... Hehe, the scorpion man did die, but it wasn't we who killed it. If it weren't for a young man who helped, I wouldn't be here and bragging. ”
"The young man...... Have an old relationship with your regimental commander. ”
A somewhat muffled voice came from under a black robe: "I want to know, where is your regiment leader." ”
In that voice, the cold intent was even worse, and there was even a faint killing intent in the air. This powerful aura even made the mercenary at the back soften his knees and sit directly on the ground......
"Our Captain......"
The bearded mercenary scratched his head and said with some uncertainty: "After the regiment commander arrived here, he separated from us, but the end of our mission is in the Yan family. Our head should be in the Yan family by now. ”
"The Yan family......"
There was some hesitation in the voice, but this hesitation only lasted for a moment, and then it was replaced by a coldness. After taking a deep look at the bearded man, the black-robed figure moved, and the whole person disappeared directly from the beard's sight as if he was teleporting.
Seeing the black-robed man leaving, the bearded man seemed to have put down some burden, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief. patted Xiao Zhao behind him, and then looked at the mercenary who was paralyzed behind him, and grinned:
"Look, today I taught you a lesson, deceiving people, that's how you deceive. ”
Immediately, the original smile on the bearded man's face was retracted, replaced by a touch of seriousness.
sighed slowly, and the bearded man said in a low voice: "That person, what a terrifying aura, even Xiao Yu is definitely not his opponent, it seems that now I have to find a way to inform the head of the regiment." ”
He shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "The mountain rain is coming, this lord doesn't know where it is, this head of the regiment is really a little incompetent." ”
............
Yancheng, Yan's family.
In the luxurious bedroom, it was a mess at the moment, Yan Qianzhong's eyes were full of hideous resentment, and he slammed the teacup in his hand on the ground, and the whole person was almost hysterical:
"I want him to die, how dare an alchemist who has entered the divine realm humiliate me so much, why should he humiliate me!"
Compared to before, the current Yan Qianzhong had almost fallen into a state of madness, and shouted at the person standing beside him: "Tell my father, I want to smooth out the ghost place of the Alchemist Guild, and I want him to die for the old immortal thing of Huoyan!"
The family guard standing beside him was expressionless, and suddenly leaned down and whispered a few words in Yan Qianzhong's ear.
And then, a touch of madness appeared in Yan Qianzhong's eyes, but the original madness gradually disappeared. In the next moment, a grim smile appeared at the corner of Yan Qianzhong's mouth, and his cold voice was surging with murderous intent:
"Don't you have the protection of the Alchemist Guild, I want to see what kind of proud capital you have after the Sword Tasting Conference!"
"On that day, I wanted you...... Kneel in front of me. ”
A trace of sickly flushing appeared on Yan Qianzhong's pale face, his voice was bitter and bitter, and the corners of his mouth twitched almost involuntarily: "Then, I'll kill you again!"
