Chapter 18: The Yellow Dog
Led by the scarface, Chu Yang walked through the blacksmith shop and into a pitch-black passage.
In the dark passage, he walked for more than an hour like a labyrinth of narrow paths, until Chu Yang gradually felt a little impatient, and finally came to the end of the passage.
At the end of the passage is a stone door, the stone door is very ordinary, it looks a little shabby, the scar man made a stop movement, the next moment his palm, gently buckled a depression next to the stone door, the quaint stone door made a huge and heavy sound, slowly rising upward.
After the stone gate was opened, golden light shone like a bright sun, illuminating the entire dark passage.
"Okay, here's your waist card, you can take the task when you go in. “
The scar-faced man handed Chu Yang a bronze medal engraved with a hideous tiger's head, turned around and left the same way. Chu Yang shook the waist card that was a little cold in his hand, looked at it with a low brow, held the waist card in his hand tightly, sighed, and stepped across the stone gate.
Behind the stone gate is another world, the whole is a magnificent hall, the hall is golden and looks unusually spacious, like a royal palace, Chu Yang can hardly imagine that such a magnificent building will be buried deep in the ground, what a huge project this must be, you must know that this is just a branch of the Adventurer's Guild.
Chu Yang searched around and saw several side doors, each with four big characters written on them: human, mortal, earth, and heaven. Lowering his eyebrows, he looked at his waist card, and found that the word newcomer was written on the waist card, Chu Yang thought for a moment, and his eyes swept towards the crowd sitting on the rows of soft chairs in the main hall, and moved his brows.
Putting the waist card in his hand on his waist, he walked over quickly, Handan toddler sat on a vacant seat as usual, and the adventurers around him cast surprised glances one by one, as if they were curious about this childish teenager, how could he come to be an adventurer at such a young age and pin his head to the waistband of his pants? Of course, curiosity is just curiosity, in fact, those adventurers' eyes swept slightly on Chu Yang's body, and their eyes were staring at the only side door without words.
"The task of not entering the stream - looking for the yew eagle, the number of people is five, who will do it?"
As soon as the old voice fell, I saw the adventurer door who was sitting on the soft chair as quiet as Zen, and one by one they left the table, buzzing and rushing towards the wordless side door.
Chu Yang looked at the crowded crowd in amazement, with a little thinking in his eyes, but after a while, the search for Yew Shao was completed, and the remaining adventurers who were not selected returned to their original positions one by one.
Like them, these adventurers who have not entered the stream, the tasks they receive are generally used to practice, and the danger is extremely low, and they can supplement their task value by doing these tasks, and the task value can be promoted to the human level adventurer when the task value reaches a point, but in fact, there are very few tasks with low danger and not entering the stream, but there are many adventurers who do not enter the stream in Weicheng, so in the end, the scarcity of tasks that do not enter the stream, reaching the point of crazy robbery.
"Human-level mission - five-colored flowers! There is still one person missing, is anyone willing to give it a try? “
After a while, the side door with the word "person" written on it, a light voice came crisply, and everyone in the hall looked at each other, one by one standing still like a stone carving, obviously swarming compared to the task of finding a yew carving, and the scene at this time was slightly embarrassing.
Five-colored flowers, generally grow in the depths of the mountains, is a kind of elixir, to take the five-color flowers, it is bound to reach the belly of the mountains, the beasts in the mountains are very dangerous, if you are not sure to go without permission, nine times out of ten you can't come back, when it comes to the danger of life, many adventurers are shaken.
"Five-colored flowers? They usually grow in the mountains, and I just want to go into the mountains to find the cultivation ground and the Ice Flame Grass, so I can take on the task of this five-colored flower. After pondering slightly, Chu Yang remembered the record of five-colored flowers in the books of the Collection Pavilion, pondered for a while, and under the eyes of everyone, he got up and slowly walked towards the side door where the characters were written.
The reason why Chu Yang wanted to join the Adventurer's Guild was for two reasons, one was that the mountains and forests were full of wild beasts, and it was easy to get lost if no one led him, if he joined the Adventurer's Guild, it would be different, with the help of these people's experience, he could quickly familiarize himself with the terrain, so it would be much easier to find a cultivation place and cold ice grass.
Moreover, adventurers are a very dangerous profession, for a cultivator, only through actual combat can he quickly improve his strength, the Xuanting will be approaching, what Chu Yang needs most now is to continuously improve his strength, to sum up, joining the adventurer's union has the effect of killing two birds with one stone for Chu Yang.
"I haven't seen that kid before, is it new......? It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers! Without any experience, he dares to take on human-level tasks, this kid can't be crazy for money, right?"
"I bet that kid will go into the mountains for two days at most, and he will become a tiger and a bear, and a leopard will be poop. “
"I'll bet on a day! That kid looks so young, he doesn't have any level at all, presumably the son of a family who came out to experience a fart, at most a day. “
"I'll bet two hours, come, come...... Buy and leave ......"
Those adventurers sitting on the soft chairs, looking at the slightly emaciated back of the young man with the ancient black scimitar on his back, they were talking one by one, and even betting, Chu Yang listened to the discussion behind him, and the corners of his mouth outlined a slight arc.
Behind the human-level side door, there is a hut made of crystal, and the dragon face jade in the house blooms with a soft light, this kind of jade is naturally smooth and clean, and it is a treasure commonly used by the dragon clan for lighting, to Chu Yang's surprise, this kind of thing is actually used as a lighting lamp in the adventurer's guild, you must know that this dragon face jade is enshrined as a national treasure in the treasury! Behind the human-level side door is so extravagant and luxurious, then how luxurious is the mortal level, the earth level, and the heaven level?
"You're going to accept the task of taking the five-colored flowers?"
Next to a crystal table, a woman in a long red dress, her legs crossed, her slender legs revealed from the rock peak, her white jade legs were as clear as warm jade, and a beautiful mole at the corner of her mouth added a bit of charm to her like the finishing touch.
"Hmmm......"
Chu Yang withdrew his gaze from the side and nodded indifferently.
"Do you have any mission experience?"
Beside the woman in red, a scantily clad middle-aged woman asked in an indifferent tone, there was a hideous scar on her face, which made her originally flower-like cheeks look slightly hideous.
"First time in ......"
Chu Yang thought for a moment and replied frankly.
The middle-aged woman with a scar on her face nodded, as if she understood something, leaned over the ear of the woman in red, as if she was telling something, the woman in red glanced at Chu Yang's slightly childish cheeks with some indifference, and said lightly: "Since there is no other person to take over this task, then the last place will be replaced by you, see you at the north gate tomorrow morning, don't be late." ”
Chu Yang nodded clearly, thanked him, and signed a contract in accordance with the procedures of the adventurer's guild under the leadership of the woman with a scar on his face, and after the contract was signed, the woman with a scar on his face gave Chu Yang a dark money bag, which was the first commission of Chu Yang's task, Chu Yang checked the money bag and found that there was a lot of silver in this money bag, at least dozens of taels.
He couldn't help but be surprised by the high reward of this task, you must know that this is the commission in the early stage of the task, if the tail money after the completion of the task, the reward will usually be nearly ten times the previous commission, so that the commission before and after the task is nearly two. About three hundred taels of silver, even as the young owner of Yanxia Villa, Chu Yang had never seen so much silver, and when he was amazed by the high employment fee, he also understood that since he was the task publisher and set up such a high task hire fee, the danger of this human-level mission would be extremely terrifying, because according to Chu Yang's understanding, usually the adventurer's guild, the reward of the task is determined according to the danger of the task.
Although he was a little worried in his heart, but he was at peace when he came, Chu Yang's character of being at ease with what he met did not make him think too much, he thanked the scar-faced woman again, that is, he left the Adventurer's Guild, after leaving the Adventurer's Union, he went around Weicheng, bought some things needed to enter the mountain, and stayed in an inn.
Tomorrow will be Chu Yang's first time entering the mountain, to be honest, as a fledgling rookie, before entering the mountain for the first time, he will inevitably be a little nervous in his heart, because the adventurer is to put it bluntly, it is a profession that pins his head to the waistband of the knife and licks the blood, no one knows what will happen in the next moment after entering the mountain, in his tossing and turning, the night will pass quickly.
The next day, when the rain subsided and the entire Weicheng was still in a misty state, Chu Yang got up early, washed up, wrapped his back, and walked towards the north gate of Weicheng with the ancient golden scimitar behind him.
Outside the north gate, the girl in red and the other four adventurers were already waiting, and Chu Yang's attention was a dark-skinned man among the four, holding a big yellow dog in his hand, which looked like he was seriously ill.
After Chu Yang arrived, he greeted everyone one by one, but a few people didn't seem to take Chu Yang as a rookie in their eyes, except for the girl in red and the middle-aged woman with a scar on the same face, symbolically nodded with Chu Yang, and the rest of the people simply ignored it, obviously in their eyes, Chu Yang just came to make up the numbers, and everyone was not very optimistic about him, after all, he was too young and had no experience.
"Boy, is your suicide note ready?"
On the way, a blonde-haired man in the prime of life patted Chu Yang's slightly emaciated shoulder and teased him with a slight boredom.
Several other people also laughed when they heard this, because they went deep into the mountains all the year round, or carried out assassinations, they had a bloody aura, and they were shrewd and gave people a very old and spicy feeling, compared to Chu Yang, who was still childish, and they seemed out of place with them.
"Not ready to write ......"
In the face of everyone's ridicule, Chu Yang did not show the recklessness and anger of his youth, but shrugged his shoulders and responded to everyone's ridicule very flatly.
"Okay, I'm about to enter the mountain range in front, be honest, I heard that the recent Xiqi Mountain is not very quiet, if anyone of you is careless and dies, don't blame the old lady for not reminding you. When a few people were ridiculing Chu Yang, the middle-aged woman with a scar on her face suddenly turned around and said viciously, she was obviously very authoritative among these people, as soon as her words came out, she suddenly saw those reckless men, and instantly fell silent.
The sun shines through the dense foliage and sprinkles through the dense mountains, and the scorching sun swells the earth like a big fireball.
A rugged sheep intestine path, Chuyang six people wearing straw hats with grass on their heads, walked slowly from a distance, and walked along the crooked sheep intestine path for about two hours, and suddenly the middle-aged woman in front of her changed her complexion, and saw that the big yellow dog she was holding suddenly whined and barked.
The middle-aged woman leaned down, stretched out her tongue and licked the sideburns of the big yellow dog, calming it down, and then she began to talk to the big yellow dog in an extremely strange language.
After a long time, she stood up, met the scrutinizing gaze of the woman in red, wiped the dog hair from her mouth, and said with a deep groan: "Dog Daner is a psychic dog, and has a very keen perception of danger, which is incomparable to those ordinary hunting dogs. ”
