Chapter 121: The setting of the pit man
Although the mercenary union is not comparable to the three major trade unions of law, war, and control, it is also one of the few super-large organizations that can spread throughout the entire continent, but even so, it is not exempt from vulgarity, and the union is intertwined, and the seven major families jointly control the overall situation.
Among them, the Chu family and the Yan family behind Chu Hongxiu and Yan Lingfei control the mercenary branch in the Thundering Empire, the two families have been friends for generations, and the fathers of the two daughters are friends of life and death, but when it comes to the situation of the two daughters, they are very different.
Yan's father is the contemporary head of the Yan family, with three wives and concubines, the big house has the only son in the family, the status is stable, the three-room appearance is outstanding, the young is still the most favored, if it weren't for Yan Lingfei's early display of magic talent, his mother's second-room status may have been lost.
As for Chu's father, he was also the head of the Chu family, only one wife and one daughter, seventeen years ago, he took the lead in launching a joint expedition of two major families, and the ruins he went to were where everyone is now, and only one of the more than 30 people in the end returned with serious injuries, and the rest of the people did not survive, and soon after, Chu's mother became crazy and insane, and rarely sent Chu Hongxiu to the Yan family for foster care when she was sober, and Yan Lingfei's mother took the most care of her, and the two daughters were inseparable from each other.
What's more worth mentioning is that the only person who returned from serious injuries that year was Chu Mingyang's father, who is also the current decision-maker of the Chu family, with a wife and two sons, and Chu Mingyang also has a brother named Chu Mingsheng.
Yan Lingfei talked a lot, Ye Chen and the others listened very carefully, seeing that what they should know was enough, Ye Chen hurriedly stopped Yan Lingfei, it is not easy to inquire too much about other people's family affairs, and the three mercenaries all nodded secretly when they saw this.
Chu Hongxiu's cry gradually weakened, slowly raised his head and wiped his cheeks a few times, and then took out a coffin while sobbing, Ye Chen and Yan Lingfei looked at each other and silently stepped forward to help, while the three mercenaries pretended to investigate the surroundings and stayed away.
Chu's father's bones were already extremely fragile, Ye Chen and the two daughters were carefully picked up and put together, and in the end there was only a piece of tattered clothes left, Chu Hongxiu was reluctant to abandon it and gently picked it up, just left the ground a little, the three of them almost simultaneously found that there was something under it, and when Chu Hongxiu put the broken clothes into the coffin, he hurriedly patted off the dust on it, and a small package of animal skins appeared.
With the encouragement of Ye Chen and Yan Lingfei, Chu Hongxiu opened the package with a slight tremble, and the three items resurfaced after many years, Ye Chen swept over a piece of exquisite jade pendant, a small talisman, and an ancient scroll, an ancient scroll that he was very familiar with.
"Whoosh", Ye Chen couldn't help but grab the ancient scroll like the wind under the excitement, and as soon as he withdrew his hand, he reacted and was immediately stunned, and then felt the two women staring at him together, so he had to raise his head in embarrassment to meet the two bundles of eyes, his lips opened and closed repeatedly but he didn't know how to explain, and he reached out and handed the ancient scroll to Chu Hongxiu in a hurry.
However, Chu Hongxiu had no intention of taking over at all, but glanced at Ye Chen with disgust: "Why are you so anxious, just say what you want, and you won't give it to you, grab something." ”
"Smack."
The ancient scroll fell to the ground with his hand, Ye Chen and Yan Lingfei were dumbfounded when they heard this, and the next moment, Yan Lingfei got up and ran away in the blink of an eye, Ye Chen swallowed his saliva violently and hurriedly retracted his hand, even ignoring the ancient scroll that fell to the ground, at this point, Chu Hongxiu reacted, picked up the ancient scroll and gave it to Ye Chen, then picked up the package and put away the coffin, got up and ran away two steps and turned around to stare at Ye Chen, stomped his feet and continued to chase Yan Lingfei.
In terms of appearance alone, among the women Ye Chen has seen, Gong Xia is the most outstanding, if you look at it comprehensively, Gong Xia and Zi Linglong are definitely a horizontal line, but if you talk about hot bodies and small jasper, it is none other than Chu Hongxiu and Yan Lingfei, the grades in their twenties have faded from their youth, and that mature charm is also quite lethal.
After thinking about it for a while, Ye Chen suddenly blinked his eyes and shook his head twice, looked around with a weak heart but didn't see Chu Hongxiu and Yan Lingfei, and looked at the three mercenaries suspiciously, the three of them actually pointed to the square outside the gate together, Ye Chen couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, nodded to show it, looked at the ancient scroll in his hand and said loudly: "Three old brothers, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, go inside to make it easier." ”
As soon as the words fell, the three mercenaries immediately nodded their heads in unison, all showing an expression that I understand you very well, and looked at Ye Chen inexplicably, and then led the four bears of Dachun towards the passage under the gaze of the three of them.
Ye Chen stopped and shook his head helplessly, signaled the four bears of Dachun to be vigilant, and began to check the beast storage bracelet, in the barren land inside, the iron eggs and purple clothes in the state of sleeping advancement were wrapped in rich energy, like two eggs with different lights, and the energy eggs continued to expand and contract with the heartbeat of the two beasts, which looked extremely wonderful.
The next moment, Ye Chen withdrew and looked at his right hand with a flick, and a gray light cluster broke away from the beast storage bracelet and shot to the ground, which was magnified into an energy egg turned into an iron egg in the blink of an eye, and as soon as it landed, it emitted surging energy fluctuations, Ye Chen did not dare to slack off, hurriedly stepped forward to ask for a drop of blood, and then quickly took it back.
Calming down slightly, Ye Chen dripped the blood of himself and Tie Dan'er onto the ancient scroll, and when it was completely absorbed, he slowly unfolded it with bated breath, and couldn't help but smile when he saw the familiar style and handwriting.
"Boy, have you heard of the space equipment that can grow? It's essential to fight and capture treasures. ”
After silently reading the message, Ye Chen couldn't hide his excitement, rolled up his left sleeve and pressed the ancient scroll on the soul bracelet, and after a flash of light, the two were smoothly merged into one, and then, a piece of information came to mind: The soul bracelet is about to activate the space of life and death, temporarily stopping all functions and falling into hibernation.
Ye Chen's subordinates really lacked suitable space equipment, and he had discussed with the fat man before, but when he heard the price, he was directly discouraged, and even Shen Huaizhong went to the Devouring Lake to fish to borrow the fat man's space ring, which was basically the same as his own, and this was still the entrance gift carefully prepared for him by the fat man's father.
With anticipation and excitement, Ye Chen suddenly felt a hundred times more energetic, anyway, he didn't know how to face the two sisters when he went back, so he simply continued to go deeper into the passage, the inscription has already made it very clear, as long as he doesn't enter the place of test, he should be fine.
As he moved forward, Ye Chen found that the passage should be spiraling downward and slowly extended, and then turned a corner, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a wide open door not far away, and hurriedly trotted over to look up and down.
The open dark cyan door panel is more than a palm thick, and the material is no different from the metal wall that seals the entrance to the square, it is not difficult to imagine that once the door is closed, it will be difficult to fly, and then look down, a familiar gold wire at the door will divide the door inside and outside, its intention is self-evident, and it must be no good to step in.
Ye Chen couldn't help but smash his mouth, and after a few thoughts, he carefully stood on the edge of the golden line, raised his hand to hold the door frame and leaned in to observe the inside, however, just after taking a look, he suddenly felt the wind behind him, and he didn't have time to look back before he was slapped into the room by the closed door panel, and hurriedly twisted his body and sat on the ground, maintaining the shape of holding the door frame in a daze.
"Crossing the golden line can choose the difficulty to open the test, touch the door frame to immediately open the highest difficulty test, one participant, fifty breaths after the release of the war beast."
In the spacious secret room made of all-metal, the sound of Mu Ne's voice suddenly echoed, Ye Chen suddenly jumped up after hearing it, his face almost suffocated after several changes, and finally only squeezed out one sentence: "Lao Tzu will ...... it in the future, and he will ......." ”
Ye Chen didn't come out of it for a long time, and he sat back like a deflated ball, but time waited for no one, fifty breaths passed quickly, and Mu Ne's voice came as promised: "Start to put war beasts, the highest difficulty, with one enemy and three." ”
As the words fell, three pillars of teleportation light descended from the roof of the shed on the side of the secret room, and they sank into the ground in less than two breaths, and three giant wolves with blue hair all over their bodies appeared, stunned for a moment and stared at Ye Chen in unison, grinning and roaring continuously, while slowly scattering and surrounding.
Raised his hand and took out the Changhong knife, stood up with a pestle on the ground, instantly put on the battle armor, the origin of the black surging vigorously, Ye Chen shouted angrily and raised the knife and danced wildly, three slashes in a row were all open and closed, and three half-zhang wide pitch-black qi gangs attacked the three giant wolves in the shape of a crescent moon, and then dragged the knife and rushed out wildly, staring at the giant wolf on the far left and moving forward.
Ye Chen's mood at the moment can be described as terrible, the three in front of him are obviously all desolate war beasts, this time not only was they sparsely pitted, but they were unable to activate the Ten Thousand Beasts Illustrated Book at the critical moment, and suddenly felt a nameless fire rushing to the top of his head, which made people unhappy.
However, even if he was angry, Ye Chen never lost his mind, the three qi gangs were all intentional, after two contacts with Lao Wan, how much he realized something, the first two qi gangs attacked the giant wolf on the right and in the middle respectively, and the ambition was not to hurt the enemy with one blow, all of them were biased to the left with the intention of dividing, and the two giant wolves were also very cooperative in the face of qigang, and they jumped to the right to dodge.
The third qi gang attacked the giant wolf on the left and biased to the right, the giant wolf saw this and jumped to the left without hesitation, almost sticking to the wall when he landed, just raised the huge wolf's head and saw a pitch-black shadow has rushed to the front, the next moment the black mang flashed the blade to the ground, there was no blood splashing, there was no death wail, only the wolf head that was not blind to death rolled aside.
As the headless wolf corpse slowly fell to the ground, Ye Chen put away his knife and turned around as if smiling, slapping his chest to urge the barrier of earth, and seeing that his partner was killed, the remaining two giant wolves roared at the same time, and the wind elemental energy surged wildly and instantly enveloped the whole body, one left and one right quickly attacked, narrowed a certain distance and jumped up one after another, opening the blood basin and biting it.
In the passage, Chu Hongxiu and Yan Lingfei were both anxious, pacing back and forth, Lao Zheng and Lao Liu were sweating profusely and stared at the two women, and after a while, Lao Huang ran back panting, and when he saw the four of them looking at him together, he couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
"You guys just get out of the way, Ling Fei and I will pay more attention to ensure that we won't cripple those four stupid bears, Ye Chen has been gone for a long time, in case of danger, if it drags on any longer, something big will happen."
Chu Hongxiu pulled out the big sword as she spoke, with a posture that she would be strong if she didn't compromise, Yan Lingfei on the side also raised her staff, and the three mercenaries all secretly complained when they saw this.
It has been half an hour since Ye Chen's so-called convenience, and the three of them have half a cup of tea to stop the two women, if it weren't for Ye Chen's great fancy of the four bears in the spring, the three of them would have followed together, and I don't know what order Ye Chen gave them, the four stupid bears didn't go in, and Lao Huang had already run back and forth four times, which could be described as fruitless.
