After resting in the inn for two days, Dugu Yi and Qin Qin finally decided to leave for the imperial capital. At this time, Dugu Yi's injuries had almost recovered, and it took only three days to recover to this point, and Dugu Yi himself had no way to explain it, so he could only accept the explanation given by Qin Qin: Cai Yu's bloodline was fused with his bloodline, and now he had the same extraordinary recovery power as the super-level Yuan Beast Vermilion Bird.

Qin Qin is such a beautiful young girl who is extremely eye-catching no matter where she is, and Dugu Yi's appearance is also very handsome, the blindfold on her face does not detract points from him, but adds more maturity and stability to make people not to be despised against, and the clothes on their bodies are also extremely precious materials, at first glance, they are the young master and daughter from a famous family, and such two people did not bring any entourage, so there were many ill intentions in the sight cast at them.

Dugu Yi's brows furrowed deeply after noticing those eyes. There won't be many people in the city who dare to make a move, but what about after leaving the city? In the past, there were still Cai Yu who could find the Yuan Beast to protect them, but now they can only rely on themselves, can they protect Qin Qin along the way?

"Qin Qin, let's go hire a few mercenaries, shall we?"

"Mercenaries?" Qin Qin looked at Dugu Yi with a smile. "I haven't heard you mention it before, why did you suddenly think of this?"

"Because I didn't expect you to be so noticeable before. ”

Qin Qin looked around, but she didn't care about the people who were staring at her. "You care about these people too?"

"I can't risk your safety. Dugu Yi shook his head and said, "It's a little too late to say this kind of thing now, so even if you borrow someone else's strength, I hope you can be under the protection of safety." ”

After Dugu Yi finished speaking, Qin Qin sighed softly, and said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you need to come step by step to seek strength, and it is counterproductive to rush too quickly." ”

Hearing this, Dugu Yi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly. "Three years ago, you threatened with my life, how can you say such things now?"

Qin Qin looked at Dugu Yi like a fool. "I hope you can become stronger as soon as possible, but I won't skip this process, I didn't think that you would become a martial saint overnight. ”

"Martial Saint, isn't this too far away?"

"Then let's get back to the present. Aren't you going to be a mercenary, have you chosen someone?"

"There can't be!" Dugu Yi spread his hands and said, "I've only been to Paint Wall City twice, and I only stopped here for a day last time......"

"Two, please stay. ”

A strange man blocked Dugu Yi and Qin Qin's way. Dugu Yi took a step forward vigilantly, blocking Qin Qindang behind him.

Seeing that Dugu Yi was so vigilant, the man took a small step back and introduced himself quite politely: "Hello, I have no malicious intentions. I am Yang Kai, a squad leader of the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group, and I just overheard that you want to hire mercenaries, so I have the courage to block the way and recommend myself. ”

Hearing this, Dugu Yi let down his guard and carefully looked at this mercenary named Yang Kai. This person looks like he is in his thirties, he is dressed very neatly, and his face is very clean; although his previous actions were a little reckless, the aura on his body is a little restrained, and he feels quite passable to Dugu Yi, but mercenaries don't rely on appearances to eat.

"Fourth-level martial artist ......" Dugu Yi looked at Qin Qin with some hesitation. Although Yang Kai's martial arts rank is two levels higher than him, he may not be as good as him with four high-level martial arts, can such a person play a role on the road to the future?

"You ......" Yang Kai never thought that he would be seen through the martial rank by a teenage boy, so he was surprised and also visited Dugu Yi's martial rank. "How old are you, you're actually a second-level martial artist!"

Those passers-by who had been staring at Dugu Yi and Qin Qin became dodgy after hearing Yang Kai's exclamation, and the timid few people walked away.

"In this small Lacquered City, do you still want to find mercenaries above the Martial Sect?" Qin Qin said softly, ignoring the small commotion around him.

Hearing Qin Qin's voice, Yang Kai's eyes also turned to her, although he also wanted to see Qin Qin's martial rank, but this time it disappointed him. In Qin Qin's body, he couldn't even see any trace of a cultivator's aura, even if she was an ordinary person, no one would doubt it, but her temperament was very close to Dugu Yi's martial artist, so Yang Kai was also confused.

"We don't care, but you should be a little more restrained. Dugu Yi said coldly to Yang Kai.

"Ah...... Excuse me. Yang Kai hugged his fists apologetically, and said: "Our Silver Wolf is already the largest mercenary group in this Lacquered City, if the two of you are interested in hiring the mercenaries in our group, please follow me to talk to the head of the group in detail." ”

"Let's go check it out first. ”

Qin Qin had already spoken, and Dugu Yi naturally stopped hesitating.

"Come with me, two. Yang Kai didn't delay any longer, and turned around to lead the way after finishing speaking.

Dugu Yi and Qin Qin glanced at each other before taking steps at the same time.

After about half a moment, the three of them finally came to the mansion of the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group. After entering the courtyard, Dugu Yi and Qin Qin also saw a lot of mercenaries coming and going, although there were also many martial arts level cultivators among them, but their ranks were relatively low, almost all of them were second or third grades;

"Yang Kai, these two are ......"

When he came to the door of the lobby, a man in his forties greeted Yang Kai before he could speak.

Yang Kai bowed respectfully to the man. "I met these two by chance on the road, and they wanted to hire mercenaries, so I brought them over. ”

After Yang Kai finished explaining, he introduced to Dugu Yi and the others: "This is our head Gu Wolf. ”

"You've come to the right place. The ancient wolf smiled and said, "Come in first and sit down, let's talk slowly." ”

Dugu Yi and Qin Qin were also not polite, and walked straight to the two seats that were connected together.

"We heard that you are the largest mercenary group in this city, I wonder if you dare to take our order?"

Dugu Yi's tone and attitude were extremely contemptuous, but the ancient wolf was not angry because of this, from the dress and momentum of the two of them, it can be seen that they are people of famous families, most of these people with prominent backgrounds look down on mercenaries, but they are extremely generous, and the ancient wolf has naturally encountered many such people in the past ten years.

"Haha. The ancient wolf smiled and said, "No matter what the order is, I have never refused to enter the business, of course, the price must be right." ”

"You're going to die if you take this order from us. Qin Qin said lightly.

Yang Kai poured tea for Dugu Yi and the others while saying, "With your identity but not a single guard, I also think that your guards may all be ......."

"That's it. Dugu Yi said noncommittally: "We are being hunted down now, and the weakest assassin is also a martial artist. ”

"Maybe there will be a martial artist. Qin Qin added.

Hearing this, Gu Wolf and Yang Kai's faces became serious and iron-blue, and there was even a trace of fine sweat coming out of their foreheads, and they were enemies of Wuzong, and they didn't dare to borrow a few more dares. Yang Kai didn't expect him to bring such a big trouble.

Dugu Yi was not surprised by Qin Qin's addition, and even he felt that someone stronger than Wu Zong would attack. Qin Qin, the assassin sent by the Qin family, tested Dugu Yi, but she did not arrange what the Qin family would send, and Qin Qin also said that the other party acted on the premise of killing him, so when Cai Yi attacked again, he must have been sure to kill him.

After a long silence and thought, the ancient wolf finally spoke again: "Are you sure that there is really a Martial Sect among the assassins?"

"Not sure. Qin Qin smiled slightly.

"Alas......" the ancient wolf let out a long sigh. "Where are you going?"

"How far can you escort us?" Dugu Yi asked rhetorically.

"Up to a thousand miles. We still have some strength in Lacquer Wall City, but beyond this range, we can't do it. ”

"Are you going to pick it up?" Qin Qin asked.

"Yes......"

"Regiment leader?" Yang Kai interrupted the ancient wolf with a worried face, he knew very well in his heart that this mission was definitely not something that their mercenary group could do, although the reputation of the mercenary group was very important, but he couldn't accept orders knowing that he would die.

The ancient wolf waved his hand to stop Yang Kai, and then said, "Because your mission is dangerous, the commission ......"

"A thousand gold coins. ”

Before the ancient wolf could make an offer, Qin Qin gave a price that he couldn't refuse, and continued: "We only need five people. ”

"This ......," the ancient wolf was speechless in surprise. 1,000 gold coins, which is enough for the daily expenses of their entire group for a whole year! Moreover, such a dangerous mission only needs to be escorted by five people.

"Qin Qin, don't you have a concept of money?" Dugu Yi was also taken aback. At the beginning, Chang Jun and his party were busy for more than half a month, but the commission they received was only a hundred gold coins, and after they were divided, there were only three or four gold coins per person, and now Qin Qin's commission for one person was twice the total amount of more than 20 people in the Chang Army at that time.

"Because I've never spent money. Qin Qin said bluntly.

"This ...... If you want to re-open the price, you can do it, even if it is for the reputation of the silver wolf, we must ensure that the price is reasonable, otherwise others will think that I am bullying you for being young and not understanding the market. After the ancient wolf came back to his senses, he said it in one breath, as if he was afraid that he would change his mind for the sake of this thousand gold coins.

"I never take back what I say. Qin Qin stood up as he spoke, and walked to a desk behind the chair, and with a wave of his hand, the table was full of golden things.

"A thousand gold coins are placed here. ”

Because there were no packages or anything like that that could hold belongings on Dugu Yi and the others, the ancient wolf was still thinking about how they were going to pay, but he never thought that the girl actually wore a storage ring on her finger, and she did not shy away from showing it in front of them, so compared to the table full of gold coins, the eyes of the ancient wolf and Yang Kai were only staring at the ring on Qin Qinyu's hand.

"Get your people and horses ready, and we're going to leave today. Dugu Yi also stood up and stood beside Qin Qin in a protective posture.

"Yes, yes......" Gu Wolf nodded again and again, and said to Yang Kai: "Go and inform Yang Lan, Gu De and Yuan Xia, this time the five will personally escort you." ”

"Yes. Yang Kai quickly left the lobby after answering. "Offstage?
