Chapter 14: The Guide
Since Wang Feng slowed down everyone's trip this time, the city card closest to the trial swamp that should have been arrived eight days ago has not arrived until now, basically, it took the same time as taking a detour to avoid the demonic beast. In terms of time-saving effect... Well... It's not much worse.
But everyone could feel that the smile on the boss's face had increased, something that had never happened before, a bit like... Kind of... If Du Kai and the others saw this, they would definitely say, "What does it look like, it's what the boss looks like!"
As if he had returned to the time when he would crisscross the battlefield in the border pass wolf army, the fighting spirit in Wang Feng's heart became more vigorous with the further strengthening of the true qi of the body. Casual and calm, talking and laughing, this is the real Wang Feng.
What we need to do now is to slowly let everyone know that if you have heard of the wolf army, it is best to be their friend, if you can't be friends, don't try to have anything to do with them, and there is one thing that you can't do with a knife and axe, and that is to be the enemy of the wolf army.
It took Wang Feng five years to achieve such an effect in the original world, how long will it take this time?
This time, everyone was well prepared, and even the boots needed to enter the swamp were ready, so everyone was full of confidence in the face of the swamp. The only thing you need is to find a guide in Kadu who is familiar with the terrain.
The Trial Swamp is located at the junction of the Heavenly Dragon Empire and the Wind God Realm, close to the sea on one side. Because of the complex terrain, it was impossible to deploy troops on a large scale and march on a large scale, so the two countries used the swamp as a natural dividing line. Only one city was built on the edge of the swamps of the two countries, symbolizing the declaration of sovereignty by the surname.
In fact, the two countries only have a general agreement, with the center of the swamp as the dividing line, but there is no specific statement on where the center is and where the boundary is demarcated. The common knowledge of the locals is that entering the swamp is equivalent to leaving the Celestial Dragon Empire.
Compared with other border crossings, although there is no large-scale transportation here, it is a paradise for small caravanserais, because there are no customs duties, so the smuggling of small items is quite rampant. However, due to the dangerous terrain and the fact that there are many unknown magical beasts and other relics inside, the success rate of smuggling is very low, which also causes the mercenary industry in the cities of Kadu on both sides and the city of Jitan of the wind god to be very developed.
After entering Kadu, along the main road, we quickly found a large hotel, and in order to find a guide, everyone stayed in.
The inn's bar has always been the most well-informed place, and it is also a place where adventurers and mercenaries gather. Seeing the appearance of the fresh face, several people who looked like mercenaries stood up, and after seeing the crystal card on Wang Feng's chest, they sat down in disappointment.
Wang Feng and the others found a corner table to sit down, and the boss came to greet him in person.
"What do you want?" a pleasant female voice sounded around everyone. When everyone looked up, it was actually a beautiful elf. However, it doesn't seem to be of the same race as Linda, and there are some differences in body shape.
Snow answered, "Give us six glasses of wine and some meat." With that, he threw a gold coin onto the plate.
"Okay. The elf walked to the counter, and after a while, brought the things that everyone wanted, and distributed them to everyone, the elf asked again, "It's the first time you have come to Kadu, you don't seem to have seen them before." ”
Aisha smiled: "The boss lady is familiar with this place, can you do us a small favor?"
The elf smiled, "Even if you ask, there's nothing I can't do in Kadu!" ”
"We're going into the trial swamp and need an experienced guide, can you recommend one for us?"
"What kind of guide do you want? We have a lot of guides and mercenaries here, do you want to introduce one to you?"
"Thanks, as long as you are familiar with the swampy terrain, we are going to find someone somewhere. ”
"Okay, looking at your appearance, it doesn't look like you're going to protect, I'll find a suitable person!" With that, the elf twisted his waist and left.
Wang Feng didn't speak, just watched Bai Xue eating.
After a while, a majestic, hairy man came to the table under the guidance of the elf. Unceremoniously, he dragged a stool and sat down, took a large glass of ale wine in his hand, and took a big sip before he spoke: "Are you going to the swamp? How about a month back and forth, a thousand gold coins?"
stared at him for a long time, and the man was stared at by Wang Feng's eyes, and he didn't know what to do. After a while, Wang Feng asked, "Tell me about the situation in the swamp to see if you are the person we are looking for." ”
When the man heard this, he immediately began to talk about it.
How to pull in the swamp, where there will be danger, where can you kill the monster to get the magic core, which road is the safest for smugglers, what rare things can be obtained in the swamp, etc.
Wang Feng patiently waited for him to finish and asked, "Do you know where the Dragon Refining Cave is?"
The big man seemed to have a big orange stuffed into his mouth, opened his mouth, stood for a long time, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know." He turned and hurried away, forgetting to even take the wine glass on the table.
Everyone was very strange, why this person was like seeing a ghost when he heard about the Dragon Refining Cave, and he was afraid to listen to it again.
Suddenly there was no sound in the messy bar, and it became quiet. Everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Feng's table.
A big man stood up, walked to Wang Feng's table, stretched out his hand and took out a crystal card from his body, and said: "We are the Iron Wall Mercenary Group, now the level is seventeenth, with forty-three members, fifty thousand gold coins, escort you to the Dragon Refining Cave, and the items found along the way belong to us, how about it?"
The people at the bar looked at the big man in surprise, and some of them had already started to shake their heads. Wang Feng looked at the big man and asked, "Do you know how to get to the Dragon Refining Cave?"
Dahan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but if you need it, I can help you find someone who knows the way and add 10,000 gold coins." ”
Wang Feng smiled: "Thank you, I'm just looking for a guide." ”
Dahan left disappointed, and said before leaving: "If you need it, come to this bar to find me, or that price, you can go whenever you want." If you don't think it's safe enough, you can add another 30,000 gold coins, and I'll go and pull another fifteenth-level mercenary group to do this together. ”
Unexpectedly, Ruohan immediately asked, "What's the matter?"
Snow shook his head and said, "Boss, we don't seem to understand the situation clearly, did that old man tell you anything?"
"Nope. Wang Feng's eyes flashed with another kind of light, and this unexpected situation stimulated Wang Feng's fighting spirit even more, not only did he not retreat because of this situation, but there was a faint expectation.
"Hostess, please come over for a moment. Wang Feng shouted.
The elf proprietress walked over with Nana, and Wang Feng asked, "Is there anything wrong with this dragon refining cave?"
"Where did you all hear about the Dragon Refining Cave, it's impossible for people in other places to know that there is such a place?"
"You don't care where we know about it, you just tell us what's wrong with this place?"
"The Dragon Refining Cave is a place where the dragoons are trained, and it is said to be in the trial swamp, but no one has ever known where it is. More than ten years ago, the dragoons issued notices in Kadu and Jitan City, warning people not to go or try to go to the Dragon Refining Cave, they have set up an enchantment inside, and anyone who does not listen to the dissuasion and wants to go to the Dragon Refining Cave will be killed. ”
"Has anyone been there in the past ten years?"
"Yes, a lot of people, the more mysterious they are, the more curious they become. The people here are not afraid of danger, and at first there were a few large mercenary groups that did not listen to dissuasion, and had to go there, gathered hundreds of people, and went, but none of them returned. Later, slowly there were fewer people. Now, going to the Dragon Refining Cave has become a kind of avoidance. ”
After looking at Wang Feng and his party for a moment, the elf proprietress said, "I don't know how you know about the Dragon Refining Cave, but I still advise you to dispel this idea, drink some wine and rest today, and leave here early tomorrow morning." ”
After glancing at each other, Wang Feng smiled and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the proprietress for your kindness, let's sit down for a while." Please add us a few more glasses of wine. ”
Seeing off the boss lady, Wang Feng turned his head to a few teammates and said, "It seems that we are going to poke the hornet's nest this time." ”
After a long time, Ruohan asked, "Boss, what is a hornet's nest?" Wang Feng was also happy, forgetting that in this world, there are many things that everyone doesn't know.
After explaining for a long time, everyone listening to it was elated, and the people on the side listened inexplicably.
At the end, Wang Feng asked everyone: "According to this, it seems that this Dragon Refining Cave is not simple, what do you think?
"Go, why don't you go?" Ruohan rushed out first, "If we go back like this, we won't let that fart brave man laugh to death, we must go." ”
Aisha has always been afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and she also jumped out and said: "You must go to see such a fun place, otherwise you will definitely regret it in the future!"
Chuck has always drunk Aisha and advanced together, and this time is no exception.
Linda first asked, "Is the boss going?"
Wang Feng smiled and asked her, "What do you say?"
"As long as the boss goes, there's nothing to be afraid of, I'll follow you. ”
Wang Feng looked at Snow again, and Snow hurriedly said, "I'll go and understand the situation and make a plan immediately." ”
Everyone burst out laughing. While laughing, he greeted: "Boss, bring the wine." ”
The people around them looked at them and thought to themselves that they must have met some crazy people today. A few mercenaries who were a little older looked at them, looked at their age, and thought to themselves, a group of young people who don't know the height of the sky, it's a pity!
I guess I can't find anyone today, so I might as well have a drink here.
The news in the bar was the fastest, and when they got up early the next morning, they found that almost the whole city was talking about a few hairy boys going to the Dragon Refining Cave, and among them there was a beautiful elf and a beautiful magician, saying that it was a second-level adventure team called the Wolf Army.
A few little characters who have no background to send to death can't attract the attention of others, but it's different when I hear that there are beautiful women.
When they appeared, there was immediately a rumor.
"Elf sister, don't think about it so much when you're young, come to my brother, I'll protect you, you don't have to wander with this broken wolf. Brother, I promise you're better than you are now. A strange laugh followed.
After Egger's ridicule last time, everyone is now much better under Wang Feng's teaching. Linda even smiled at the crazy person, and none of them had a seizure.
Seeing that everyone did not react, and several people were even more presumptuous, Linda laughed, and turned the spearhead to Aisha, and the words were even more ugly and unbearable. Strangely, Aisha didn't react, but Chuck was a little anxious and angry. His hand had pressed the hilt of the knife, and his lips were clenched.
Looking at Chuck's reaction, Wang Feng understood something a little, smiled, and was about to teach these people a lesson, when there was already another voice next to him.
"You boys are going to the Dragon Refining Cave, uncle, I know where it is. Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the owner of the voice. The people of the city immediately recognized the man's identity.
A playboy-type white-faced young master appeared to the side in the crowd of people, and the people around him dodged one after another. Even the people who were talking nonsense just now shut up and slowly ran back. This young master is not very good, but there are a few people next to him who are still masters.
There are really such people everywhere!" Wang Feng thought hatefully.
But he asked, "Do you really know where the Dragon Refining Cave is?"
The white-faced young man laughed and said, "When did my young master Kunsha's words deceive people, I said that knowing is knowing, how about it, come with me." If you want to know, you have to pay a price. ”
"Oh, at what cost?" Wang Feng had already seen something from this kid's obsessed eyes, but this kid knew about the Dragon Refining Cave, so he had to listen to what he had to say.
"These two beauties come with me, and I'll send someone to take you on your way. The fierce light in the young man's eyes flashed.
"What if we don't say yes?" said Linda, this time.
"Little beauty, my father is the head of the largest mercenary group in Kadu and Jitan, and who dares to disobey my orders in these two cities. Today, young master, I have taken a fancy to the two of you, obedient and obedient, and I can make you more comfortable to follow me, otherwise, young master, I am tired of playing, and I want you to serve my brothers. "The words are getting more and more explicit. Several people next to him echoed the vicious threat.
Ruohan and several people were already full of anger, but Wang Feng didn't move, and several of them endured it.
Wang Feng held back his anger and asked again: "Do you know where the Dragon Refining Cave is?"
Kunsha replied seriously this time: "I won't tell you anything, I really know that someone has been there, and I also know that he is still alive, do you think I know or not?"
A few evil servants next to him couldn't wait, and one of them had already drawn out his weapon and shouted: "Boy, our young master is lifting you, if you don't hurry up and send those two women over, Luo Suo will kill you." ”
Wang Feng laughed angrily and said loudly: "Great, great, you insulted the people of the wolf army, and now you still want to kill us." ”
Turning around, he asked Snow coldly, "If you lead the way, a few people are enough?"
Snow gritted his teeth and said, "One!"
As he spoke, wind blades, arrows, and axes had all been issued. Bai Xue also pounced on Wang Feng's signal.
The group of people on the other side who had been on guard for a long time obviously didn't expect their strength. The wind blades in the first row cut the four people who hit the head into dozens of pieces. Linda's arrows also claimed three lives.
There are also magicians among the enemies, but before they can react, they have already eliminated one by Linda and one by Bai Xue. Next up is Chuck and Johan's performances.
Chuck's knife showed the sword intent of the sword to the fullest this time, and the enemy's insult to Aisha aroused his anger, which was quite similar to Wang Feng at that time. All the corpses that touched him were shattered, and the severed arms and stumps flew everywhere.
In comparison, Ruohan's axe is much better-looking, and when the axe comes down, it is usually split into two pieces with a weapon. After a few swings of the big axe, he found that there was no opponent left.
Young Master Kunsha was thrown to the ground by Bai Xue, his big mouth was only a few inches away from his throat, and the exhaled breath sprayed on his face, making him almost faint.
Ruohan walked over and grabbed Kunsha by the neck and carried him to Wang Feng.
Wang Feng stared at him and said coldly: "Take us to find that person, otherwise, I will kill you now." ”
Everyone left, and there was a bunch of horrified eyes behind them.
"What are they called... What the... The wolf comes... Come on?"
"It's called... Called the Wolf Army. ”
"Are they second-degree? You read that right?"
"I saw it clearly in the bar yesterday, I don't believe you to ask the proprietress to go. ”
"Did I just talk nonsense? I can't remember?"
"Lazy to pay attention to you, stay away from us, I don't know you, stay away from us. ”
"How dare they provoke the people of the Black Tiger Regiment?"
"What! People dare to go to the Dragon Refining Cave, what else don't dare. I'll just say, there are still people who dare to go to that place of death, it's really young, and I saw that a few of them are not ordinary people last night. ”
......
Wang Feng and his entourage have been led by Kunsha to a deep alley in the city, and now he no longer has the majesty just now, he is carried by Ruohan in his hands, like a little chicken.
At the end of the alley, there is a low courtyard, and Kunsha points to the courtyard, indicating that it is inside.
Knocking politely on the door and waiting quietly, Wang Feng had already heard the breathing of a person inside. Breathing slowly and rapidly, as if the lobes of the lungs of the owner of the breath had been injured in some way.
After a long while, the master of the breath slowly came out and opened the courtyard door. Looking up, I saw a smiling young man, followed by several people of different races, Kunsha, who had been in the city for power, was carried by a giant man.
Seeing this person come out, Kunsha immediately shouted: "It's him, it's him, I'll help you find him, let me go!"
Wang Feng turned his head and said coldly, "Did I say I wanted to release you?"
gave Ruohan a look, Ruohan understood, carried Kunsha into the distance, and after a while, a terrible scream came from afar.
The master of the breath looked at all this coldly, as if it had nothing to do with him, until Kunsha's scream came, and the master of the breath asked, "What are you looking for me?"
This is an old middle-aged man, looking at his condition, it seems that he has suffered some serious injury that has not healed.
Wang Feng suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his vein, and the man did not resist at all.
After calling the pulse, Wang Feng said to this person: "I will heal your injuries, can you take us to the Dragon Refining Cave?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and did not speak for a long time.
Half a day later, the middle-aged man who had recovered walked out of the house. My movements are not as sluggish as before, and my breathing is smoother.
Ecstatic activity in the yard. Everyone watched silently. It took a while before he slowly stopped.
Walking up to Wang Feng, the middle-aged man said, "I thought that this injury would never get better, but you actually healed me." I don't know who you are, but thank you for your kindness. ”
The middle-aged man continued: "The reason why the Dragon Refining Cave is called the Dragon Refining Cave is because it is a training place for the dragon cavalry to go through the school, if you can't get out of the Dragon Refining Cave, you are not a qualified dragon cavalry, therefore, the Dragon Refining Cave is very important to the dragon cavalry." ”
"But it seems that more than ten years ago, the dragoon line blocked the dragon refining cave to the outside world, warning everyone not to approach, and I don't know what happened. Many of us were very curious, and we were young at the time, so we went together to plan to break through the Dragon Refining Cave. As a result, I was confronted by the dragoons at the edge of the dragon cave, and all my companions were killed, and I survived with serious wounds. But the strength of that dragoon at that time remained in my meridians, so the wound did not heal until you healed me. ”
"I see that you just killed the son of the head of the Black Tiger Regiment again, it is estimated that you can't stay in these two cities anymore, go to the test swamp, and fight with the dragoons, are you really not afraid of a small second-level adventure team, and at the same time provoke the largest mercenary group and the strongest class here?"
Seeing that everyone didn't talk, the middle-aged man also shook his head and said, "It's the same as when I was young, so stubborn, but I like it." You healed my wounds, and I'll take you to the Dragon Cave. ”
Wang Feng nodded, looked at everyone's determined gaze, turned his gaze to the direction of the swamp, and a sense of pride rose in his heart.
Dragon Refining Cave, Black Tiger Regiment, Dragoon, it's getting more and more interesting, don't let me down!
