Chapter 61 A Special Kind of Gentleman
Zhao Jia......
Xia Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and he remembered these two words in his heart, Xi Yueling broke the news in that place, so no matter what, it must have something to do with this family.
Speaking of which, the ghost blood spear in hand, tracing back to the root, still belongs to the Zhao family.
While pondering the possible situation, Xia Ming said goodbye to Elder Weng and left the school.
The location of the Zhao family was between the imperial city and the academy, so Xia Ming set the order and went to find Xiyue Ling first.
The mountain road is rugged and difficult for pedestrians, but this is only for mortals, for the pet master, and for the current Xia Ming, it is just two steps and leaps.
The rush of this mode is also exhausting, Xia Ming couldn't help but ponder, and when he waited for the time to pet the ten stars, he would catch a bird-like pet spirit.
A week later, the horizon rose a touch of red, and the soft light slowly extended to this side, and the scenery that reflected the pupils was very bright, beautiful and moving, but for Xia Ming, he didn't pay more attention, squinted his eyes and looked at it slightly, Xia Ming withdrew his gaze.
Stepping on the bluestone in the mountains, Xia Ming walked forward, the speed was very fast, and the wind and dust were flying.
didn't suppress the aura too much, so when he was rushing in the mountains, there were no demon beasts that didn't have long eyes to touch Xia Ming's moldy head.
After all, in this outside world, most of the demon beasts are mortal ranks, and there are very few military ranks, when Xia Ming rushed to Donglin Academy from his hometown Lushan City, he encountered a soldier-level demon beast on a long journey.
As for the current Xia Ming, the average soldier-level demon beast, those below the six-star rank can even be slapped to death with a slap, and feel Xia Ming's breath. How could a demon beast come closer.
It went well, Xia Ming didn't encounter any accidents, close to the Zhao family's territory, Xia Ming slowed down his pace, and suppressed the cultivation aura to the extent of pampering three stars, which is the most common pet master cultivation.
Coming here to find the traces of Xiyue Ling, Xia Ming would not be stupid enough to find the Zhao family directly, after all, he didn't know if the matter was related to the Zhao family, so he had to inquire first and collect some information.
Pengxi City. The walls are quaint and green. Towering into the sky, it is very majestic, and the crowds of people come and go, and the number is huge. It's impossible to see it all at once.
And in the midst of these populations. Xia Ming even saw a few pet masters. With the pet spirit of the divine steed by his side.
Glancing at those pet spirits, Xia Ming couldn't help but pout, several pet spirits looked very powerful. However, most of them are mortal-ranked, and the strongest one is only four-star in the military rank, which is obviously used to deceive mortals as face, but not to mention, the pet spirits of these 'divine horses' really attract a lot of attention from them.
"Is there anyone else! No matter whether it is a pet master or a mortal martial artist, whether it is a human or a pet spirit, is there a wild sand leopard that comes to challenge me? As long as I win against my wild sand leopard, I will immediately be given a thousand taels of gold and recommended to join the Zhao family. ”
As soon as he approached, Xia Ming heard the voice of the young man in charge shouting.
"What's going on?"
Finding a passer-by in the crowd, Xia Ming asked.
"You just came to Pengxi City?"
The man glanced at Xia Ming, said in surprise, noticed the faint aura emanating from Xia Ming's body, nodded clearly, and explained.
"That's the ninth young man of the Zhao family, Zhao Shu, a young master who doesn't have much cultivation talent, and he doesn't have the corresponding strong perseverance, but he likes to brag, enjoy the glory, and be praised and worshiped by others. Often setting up such a ring in Pengxi City is challenging and noisy. ”
"But this is just the opinion in the eyes of us pet masters, in the eyes of ordinary mortals, but it is different......"
Hearing this, Xia Ming looked over there.
There was a mortal warrior who came to the stage to challenge, and it didn't take much time to be slapped in the ring by the claws of the wild sand leopard, Zhao Juan did not immediately mock the defeated warrior like ordinary gentlemen, but lightly praised a few words and rewarded some silver taels.
"The martial arts are good, it's rare to be able to survive ten moves in the hands of my wild sand leopard, these silver taels will reward you, but if you want to join the Zhao family, you are still a little short. ”
didn't get angry because of Zhao Juan's words, but the warrior was greatly moved, took the silver two and bowed deeply to Zhao Juan.
"Thank you Young Master Zhao for your teaching, the villain will definitely practice martial arts hard when he goes back, and one day he will join the Zhao family and saddle the horse for the young master. ”
Zhao Shu waved his hand, casual and chic, the martial artist respectfully retreated, but the mortals on the periphery of the venue were boiling and screaming at this moment, all kinds of reverent eyes, all kinds of words of admiration, endlessly.
"Young Master Zhao is brave and invincible!"
"Young Master Zhao Juan, it's so powerful! It's too powerful, it deserves to be the new star of the Zhao family, the pride of Pengxi City!"
"Young Master, I love you~~~"
......
Looking at this hot scene and listening to this tsunami-like sound, Xia Ming was helpless, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, and there was a black line on his forehead, and he couldn't stand it.
"Really...... A special kind of squirrel. ”
For Zhao Shu's behavior, Xia Ming only felt funny, as a pet teacher, he didn't cultivate well, he didn't train and cultivate pet spirits, and he didn't explore the secret realm well, he was actually doing such a thing, and the Zhao family could really allow such a special behavior to exist.
After thinking about it carefully, Xia Ming suddenly understood the reason why the Zhao family let Zhao Shu do this.
Because Xia Ming saw that there were several martial artists behind Zhao Shu, and there was even a pet master who favored one star, this was obviously the harvest of his ring, and with the attitude of those mortals around him, Xia Ming also understood the reason.
"It's really a star effect. Not only can it improve the prestige of the Zhao family among the mortals, but it can also provide the Zhao family with some high-quality subordinates, and if they find some powerful potential, they will be even more profitable. ”
Xia Ming sighed, and the passer-by pet teacher who had just spoken also nodded, admiring Xia Ming's agile thinking.
"Yes, it is precisely because of this that the Zhao family allows such a young master as Zhao Juan to set up this kind of ring everywhere that disgraces the face of the favored master. It is precisely because of the backstage of the Zhao family that the really powerful pet master has no heart to step forward to reveal the truth. ”
"Those mortal martial artists, not to mention powerful, but they can basically live with low-level demon beasts in a few moves, they are qualified cannon fodder, and it is very easy to cultivate loyalty, and some small favors can make them smudge. ”
"Whenever there is any incident, or the Zhao family discovers a new secret realm, they will definitely send a large number of martial artists to go first, and after finding out the situation, they will go up to solve it. ”
Passerby pet teacher said.
"However, isn't it easy to mix in with some ill-intentioned people in this way?" Xia Ming asked.
"Indeed, that's what I thought before. ”
The passer-by nodded and said, but Xia Ming accurately captured the key point, before, many things explained by the two words, I thought so before, that is, the current situation is the opposite.
Xia Ming cast a puzzled gaze.
"It's not a secret, it's just a rumor, but it's a rumor that everyone agrees on. ”
"The ancestor of the Zhao family, the name is rarely known, it is said that the person has a pet spirit with special abilities, after the person died, the pet spirit has been left in the Zhao family, no one in the descendants of the Zhao family can contract it, but it has always been worshiped as an ancestor, it is because of the special ability of the pet spirit, the Zhao family is not afraid of anyone who can't mix in. ”
Xia Ming was silent thoughtfully, and then, the passer-by pet master said the answer that Xia Ming guessed.
"What is that pet spirit's special ability...... Mind Reading" (To be continued......)
