Chapter 55: The Mysterious Treasure (I)

Zi Qingjian raised his head and glanced at Feng Nu, while Feng Nu and Nian Bing were both looking at him at this time, a flush suddenly rose on his bronzed face, and he coughed, "Ahhhhhhhh Looking at his embarrassed expression, Nian Bing glanced at Feng Nu strangely, and Feng Nu frowned. Zi Qingjian has an honest temperament, he is not good at hiding himself, they can all see what this sturdy man is thinking, even Zi Qingmeng next to him is a little dissatisfied with his brother's situation, and touched him with his hand, wanting him to recover some senses.

The four of them came to the edge of the woods not far ahead, and sat down facing the avenue, the ancient trees are towering, but there is no shade at this time, on the bare trunks, the ugly cries of crows can occasionally be heard, the cold wind is blowing, the current weather is indeed the coldest time of the year, although Nian Bing does not know martial arts, and his physical fitness is only average, but he has ice and fire magic protection, and he only needs to mobilize the magic power in his body, and release a second-order ice body technique on his body to completely resist the cold.

And Feng Nu directly ignored this level of coldness.

Zi Qingjian's body is strong and his fighting spirit is exquisite, and this bit of cold is not in his eyes, only Zi Qingmeng, her martial arts have not yet entered the hall, and her cultivation is the wind system fighting qi, and the cold wind is coming, she can't help but shiver because of the cold.

When they left the academy, they were all in a hurry, Zi Qingmeng had been in the academy all the time, most of the time in the room, and when he left, he had some worries, so he only brought some simple clothes, and at this time he realized that it was too late for the cold, and put on a coat, which was only able to ease the invasion of the cold a little.

Zi Qingjian lowered his head and was thinking about his thoughts. His face was red and blue, and he didn't notice his sister's discomfort at all, and Zi Qingmeng was arrogant by nature and refused to ask his brother for help, and his face gradually changed in the cold.

Nian Bing sat between Feng Nu and Ziqing Jian's brother and sister. I wanted to talk more about the separation of these days with Feng Nu, but because of Ziqing Jian's demeanor. He didn't say much, and when he accidentally saw the change in Zi Qingmeng's face and her trembling body, he couldn't help but subconsciously ask, "Miss Qingmeng, are you cold?"

Zi Qingmeng could have endured it all the way, but now that this stops, the cold wind easily blows through his clothes, and he can't stand it anymore, and when he listens to Nian Bing asking himself, he is a little grateful in his heart. Nodding. "Sort of. It's a bit cold. ”

Zi Qingjian heard their conversation, only then did he wake up from his thoughts, turned his head to look at his sister, and was shocked to find that Zi Qingmeng's lips were already a little blue, and he was immediately startled, and quickly took off his coat and covered his sister. "Xiaomeng, why didn't you tell me Leng?"

Zi Qingmeng snorted angrily, "I don't need your clothes, you don't wear much, keep it for yourself." ”

Nian Bing just wanted to use magic to raise a fire to help warm their bodies, but Feng Nu suddenly stood up and walked to Zi Qingmeng's side, "Sister Zi, it's not good for your body to endure the cold like this, if you hurt the meridians in your body, you will fall into the root of the disease." ”

She was smiling, and the smile on her face naturally brought a sense of trust. Zi Qingmeng, who was originally jealous, heard Feng Nu's soft and concerned voice, and quietly changed a little, and was about to say something, Feng Nu's hand had already put on her shoulder.

The warm air flow entered her body from Feng Nu's slender and white jade hand, and the cold air dispersed in the warm current, Zi Qingmeng even felt that the slightest cold current was emanating from her body to the outside, and the warmth from the inside out drove away all the cold for her. Gradually, the warmth turned into scorching heat, no matter how the cold wind blew, there was no longer the slightest intrusion, warm, indescribably comfortable.

Raising her hand, Feng Nu smiled slightly and said, "Okay, my fighting qi can at least keep you from feeling cold for an hour, and I have also completely expelled the cold evil qi that invaded your body." ”

Zi Qingmeng stood up, gratefully took Feng Nu's hand, and said, "Thank you, Feng Nu girl." ”

Feng Nu smiled and said: "Thank you, everyone is on the same road, and it is appropriate to help each other." ”

"No, no, of course thank you, of course thank you, I thank you for my sister, I will do my best to help if it is useful to me in the future. Zi Qingjian also stood up a little incoherently.

Nian Bing couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, he wasn't worried about Ziqing Sword chasing Feng Nu, he just thought that his silly appearance was very cute, "Feng Nu, I'm also cold, you can also help me take off the warmth." ”

Feng Nu glanced at Nian Bing and said, "Don't think that I really don't understand magic, you should come less, whether it is ice magic or fire magic, it can effectively fight against the cold." ”

Nian Bing smiled and said, "When I was cooking in the academy before, my mana was almost consumed, where do I still have the ability to resist the cold?"

Feng Nu said angrily: "Then you can use the Zhengyang knife and wear it on your body, you won't feel cold if you don't use anything." ”

Seeing that Feng Nu was not fooled, Nian Bing shook her head with a smile, looking at her long pink hair, she was a little stupid.

At this moment, the crisp sound of horses' hooves sounded from the side of the road, now the weather is cold, and Lanmengcheng is a relatively remote city, so the nearby roads are rarely populated, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves is heard, and everyone can't help but look sideways. I saw that more than a dozen horsemen were coming towards this side quickly, and their mounts looked like high-quality horses, and although they were running fast, they landed very lightly, and did not splash any dust. As they got closer and closer, they could faintly see that the group of people were all wearing cold coats, all of them were in good spirits, their bodies were stable on horseback, and their riding skills were extremely exquisite.

"Huh. Nian Bing stood up with some confusion and shouted to the knights who were about to approach the four of them, "President Carlo, is that you?"

"Stop-" The knight on the first mount grabbed the reins sharply, and the horse stood up with a long neigh, and stopped in the gallop, and the knights who followed him, apparently trained for a long time, did not panic, and stopped after the leading knight.

"Ahh The knight jumped off his horse, and it was none other than Carlo, the head of the Mercenary Guild of the Ice Moon Empire. He wears black leather armor and a large coat. He carried a long sword on his back, and there was a golden moon mark on his left chest.

Nian Bing greeted him and said with a smile: "Yes, what a coincidence, President Carlo, are you going to carry out the task of supporting the troops?"

Carlo laughed. Walking up to Nian Bing, "There is an employer who has submitted a first-level assignment to the union. It's very difficult for an ordinary mercenary group to complete, so I took it, no, take the members of my own mercenary group to complete it, why are you here, last time I heard you say, aren't you going to Oran City?"

Nian Bing smiled: "Originally, I was going to Oran City, but I was delayed because of some things, and now I am preparing to go." I wonder if you've been to Ice City?"

Carlo turned around and gestured to the mercenaries on his horse. "Let's go. Let's get to the side. Get out of the way. The mercenaries dismounted, and one of them led Carlo's mount to the side of the road.

Carlo couldn't help but show surprise in his eyes when he saw the three Feng Nu, "Nian Bing, are these your friends?"

Nian Bing saw the doubt in Carlo's eyes. I knew that he was surprised that there was a new woman next to him, but how could he explain it? This is Feng Nu, and these two are Ziqingjian and Ziqingmeng brothers and sisters. Feng Maiden, Brother Qingjian, and Qingmeng Girl, this is the president of the Mercenary Guild of the Ice Moon Empire. ”

The three of them nodded to each other, Nian Bing took this opportunity to take a look at the mercenaries brought by Carlo, and was surprised to find that these mercenaries were dressed in the same way as Carlo except for the moon mark on their chests that were blue, and they all had a calm bearing, all of them were in their thirties, they did not talk to each other, they each led their horses to rest on the side of the road, and several of them stood in a reasonable position and played the role of guards, and it could be discerned from their looming temperament that the strength of these mercenaries was even stronger than the members of the Silver Feather Knights he had seen back then。

Carlo pulled Nian Bing aside and said with some gratitude: "Nian Bing, thank you so much for what happened last time." I've already talked to President Long when I went to Ice City, reached a cooperation agreement, and solved the problem of the two guilds at the same time, and now, our mercenary guild has formed an alliance with your Ice Moon Empire Magician Guild. ”

"Alliance?" Although Nian Bing had long thought that Long Zhi would choose to cooperate with the Mercenary Union, but the Alliance was something he did not expect, because, the Magician Union is also the highest level of trade union on the mainland, and the Mercenary Union is a low-level trade union. "President Carlo, can you make it clear what this alliance consists of?"

Carlo smiled: "Including everything you can think of as a collaboration." Our mercenary union will provide your union with all the funds and resources it needs, and your union will provide us with the magic scrolls we need, and the most valuable thing is that there are twenty magicians from your union to join my mercenary group, which has greatly enhanced the strength of our mercenary group. This time, we were not sure that we would complete this level 1 mission, but with the participation of Wizard Rich-Technetium and the other two great magicians, I am confident that we will be able to complete the task. They went straight ahead in their carriages, and then we went to meet them. Nian Bing, President Long has a lot of respect for you!How about it? Are you interested in completing this mercenary mission with us? Don't worry, there is no problem with the treatment. ”

Nian Bing smiled slightly, and said, "Forget it, I and these friends still have to hurry, and without me, it won't have any impact on your mission." ”

There was a hint of disappointment on Carlo's face, "That's a shame. Actually, it won't take too long. Our goal this time is a treasure, and according to the employer, there are not only all kinds of treasures, but also some lost magic spells and secret books of martial arts, which are rare and good!

According to Long Zhi, the reason why the magic world is gradually declining is precisely because many ancient magic cultivation methods and powerful magic spells have been lost, and if you can get some powerful magic spells for your own use, it will naturally be very beneficial for future revenge. Gazing at Carlo, he asked, "Then what does the employer want? If there is such a good treasure, why doesn't he go and find it himself, but hire you? Isn't he afraid that you will guard and steal yourself?"

Carlo's face sank slightly, and said: "Nian Bing, you also underestimate us, the Ice Moon Mercenary Group I formed is named after the Empire, and it is the only first-level mercenary group in the Ice Moon Empire, and credibility is the guarantee of our development." Frankly speaking, the reason why the employer decided to take out the map for us to complete the task was because the map itself was broken, and, according to the map, this treasure was a cursed treasure, and the map he got was just a copy, there were as many as twelve copies of this kind of copy, according to reliable sources, the other people who got the map copies had already organized people to find the treasure, but none of them could come back alive, and the danger of the treasure can be imagined. That's why employers can easily take out the map. If we find the treasure and successfully transport all the treasures in it, then the employer only needs one bottle of the legend in the treasure, and the other treasures belong to our mercenary group. ”

"The legendary bottle?" Nian Bing looked at Carlo suspiciously.

Carlo said: "The employer is a mysterious middle-aged man, he only said that there is a black bottle in the treasure, and did not really tell the secret, as long as we give him the bottle, even if the task is completed, in addition to the things obtained in the treasure, he will pay us another 10,000 purple gold coins as a reward." I guess the bottle was a magic item. For this mission, this time I brought all the elites of the mercenary group, and these are only some of them, and the other part includes the three magicians of your guild. On this trip, our Ice Moon Mercenary Regiment dispatched a total of thirty-two Great Sword Master-level warriors, three martial artists including me, and three magicians. The strength is so strong that I think no mercenary union on the mainland can achieve, so I am very confident that I will complete the task. How about it, let's go together, my words definitely count. ”
