talk
The sun gradually rose, and the sun shone on the speeding convoy in the sky, dyed with a layer of gold, like a long golden light sweeping across the sky.
Shi Jiu sat in the carriage and looked out the window from time to time.
"Hehe, don't be nervous. This time is not like the last time, there are no valuables in the convoy, and no one should come to rob them. Jin Yun'er, who was sitting opposite, looked at Shi Jiu's still tense expression and quipped.
"Regardless of whether there are robbers or not, since you have promised to protect you, you naturally have to be on guard at all times." Shi Jiu said calmly, but the whole person still maintained his full concentration, and occasionally turned on his divine sense to scan the distance.
"Whatever you want." Shi Jiu's answer made Kim Yuna feel bored.
"By the way, after seeing the Heavenly Tribulation of the Helmsman of the Shuntian Dart Bureau, what are your plans? Do you want to go back to Lanming City with me? Kim Yuna asked with some curiosity.
She had agreed with Shi Jiu before that this escort trip would end at the end of the Tribulation, and then Shi Jiu could leave freely.
"Forget about going back to Lanming City, I don't want to be recognized by the people from the Fire Fist Gate and the Water Heaven Pavilion, I don't want to ask for trouble. Well, I plan to experience in this Longnan County, and I heard that there are many ruins and places to explore in Longnan County, and I want to see them. Shi Jiu didn't hide it, and said directly.
"Well, sure enough. Have you figured out where to go first? Shi Jiu's answer was as expected by her.
Shi Jiu shook his head: "I haven't decided yet, maybe it's a step at a time." “
Jin Yun'er was stunned for a moment, then thought for a while and said, "Well, why don't I recommend a place?" ”
"Oh? What advice does Miss Yeon-ah have? Hearing what Jin Yun'er said, Shi Jiu was interested.
"Hehe, I don't dare to advise, it's just a recommendation." Jin Yun'er smiled and continued: "Our next stop, that is, the place where the chief helm of the Shuntian Dart Bureau will mainly cross the Heavenly Tribulation, there is a Blackwater City ruins about two thousand miles to the north, you might as well go there and take a walk. First, it's closer there, and secondly, I've heard that occasionally someone can pick up treasures there, and the most recent time seems to be half a year ago, someone once picked up two wafers there. “
"Blackwater? It's a special name, is the water there black? ”
You've got too much imagination, aren't you? Of course not! Jin Yan'er said angrily to Shi Jiujiao, "Thousands of years ago, there was a Blackwater Palace there, and Blackwater City was established by it, but later the Blackwater Palace was destroyed by the enemy, and the entire Blackwater City was also in ruins. “
"So that's the case, then naturally I can't miss it, thank you, Miss Yan'er, I'll go to Blackwater City at the next stop after that." After hearing Jin Yun'er's introduction to Blackwater City, Shi Jiu's interest increased greatly, and he decided to leave there after watching the Heavenly Tribulation.
"But you have to pay attention to the time, the Dream Secret Realm will be opened in half a year, don't miss it." Worried that Shi Jiu would be happy to explore the ruins, Jin Yuna kindly reminded.
"Don't worry, I won't miss the Dream Secret Realm, I will arrive before the secret realm opens." Shi Jiu patted his chest and assured.
The next afternoon, the convoy slowed down and headed for a mountain range below.
Shi Jiu looked out the window, "Is this the location chosen by the Shuntian Dart Bureau?" ”
Jin Yan'er seemed to see Shi Jiu's doubts, and then asked with a smile, "Isn't it strange?" We didn't pass through here when we came? ”
Shi Jiu nodded.
"Since it is a catastrophe, it is natural to find a place where no one is around, once disturbed, the person who crosses the catastrophe may fall short, or even die."
"Well, I understand that."
Soon the convoy descended into a wooded field, and the convoy continued on its way, only this time not to fly, but to take the land route.
An hour later, the convoy came to a valley.
As the convoy stopped, everyone in the car got off one after another, and Shi Jiu also followed Jin Yan'er to get out of the car and came to Feng Bao Zhai's team.
At this time, Shi Jiu began to look at the valley.
Surrounded by mountains on three sides, there are no trees, most of the mountain walls are bare rocks, there is no sign of any biological activity around, and there are no sounds of birds and beasts, of course, this has to be removed from the current wave of people.
At this time, Shi Jiu noticed that not far from the front of the valley, rows of temporary tents had been set up, and many people had walked out of them, among which Shi Jiu, who was the leader of the Shuntian Dart Bureau on Yuxin Island, had seen it.
Sure enough, for this catastrophe, the Shuntian Dart Bureau had already made all kinds of preparations, and this place had been planned by them a long time ago.
After meeting with the others at the Shuntian Dart Bureau, Dong Tianling beckoned Mr. Ming Spiegel and other Feng Bao Zhai people to go to the temporary tent not far away.
After a while, Mr. Spiegel entered the largest tent with Dong Tianling and the elders of the Shuntian Dart Bureau, while Shi Jiu followed Jin Yun'er to another tent to rest.
"My Uncle Ming wants to discuss with the Shuntian Dart Bureau about crossing the Heavenly Tribulation, so we won't get involved. Your tent is next door, go rest now, and I'll send someone to call you when it's time to eat." After saying that, Kim Yuna stretched lazily.
Seeing this, Shi Jiu also retreated in amusement and came to the tent next door.
This tent was not a single person, but it was divided into several compartments, and after Shi Jiu chose one, after a little observation, he lay down on the small bed until the evening, when Kim Yuna's maid came to call Shi Jiu to get up.
Soon, Shi Jiu came outside, and Jin Yuna and Dong Hu were sitting at a long table, which was already full of exquisite dishes.
"Qi Fei, come and sit down, just let me introduce you to a friend." Kim Yuna beckoned Shi Jiu over.
After sitting on the seat, Shi Jiu looked at the two beside him with a smile.
At this moment, Dong Hu looked at Shi Jiu with a curious expression, and saw that Shi Jiu was a little unnatural.
"Dong Hu, how do you look at others, isn't it rude?" Jin Yuna saw Shi Jiu's unnaturalness and cleared the siege.
"I'm really sorry, I feel familiar, so I can't help but look at you a few more times, and I hope Brother Qi will forgive me." Hearing Jin Yan'er's somewhat dissatisfied words, Dong Hu hurriedly bowed to Shi Jiu.
"It's okay, your father said the same thing before, doesn't it feel like I am like a person named Shi Jiu? He and I knew him and were friends, and he introduced Miss Yan'er to me. Seeing Dong Hu's suspicious expression, Shi Jiu simply took the initiative to say the lines that had been prepared in advance.
"Oh, I see, no wonder!" Dong Hu said suddenly.
"I'll talk about it later, let's eat first, I've been hungry all day." Kim Yuna came out to play the round.
After eating and drinking, the three of them began to talk again.
"Brother Qi, my father praised you a lot, saying that you performed well when the convoy was ambushed before, and in one fell swoop broke the black net that trapped the convoy and allowed everyone to leave." After drinking a glass of wine, Dong Hu was the first to speak.
"Brother Dong has been promoted, it is the chief helmsman and the great elder of your faction who have really relieved the siege, and my little thing is nothing. On the contrary, I admire Brother Dong even more, I heard that at the tea party held in the Jianxiao Pavilion of Tonglin City before, Brother Dong ranked among the top five, which is really amazing, Qi admires! ”
"Brother Qi has won the award, it's just a tea party, it doesn't count." Dong Hu was modest, but his expression was proud.
"Okay, can you two not brag to each other here, I'm ashamed of you both! Kim Yuna complained a little.
"Yes, yes, Miss Yan'er, let's stop boasting, let's get down to business." Dong Hu apologized to Kim Yuna.
"My father will try to survive the catastrophe in the next few days, and he can get the protection of Feng Bao Zhai, and the probability of my father surviving the catastrophe has greatly increased, so I have thanked a few here first." After speaking, Dong Hu drank the wine in the cup.
"You're wrong, it's my Uncle Ming who is protecting your father's Dharma, and I'm just a spectator, so I can't help much."
"Anyway, you Feng Bao Zhai has helped me a lot this time, and I should be grateful."
"Alright then, we'll take your thanks." Jin Yuna replied playfully, while not forgetting to wink at Shi Jiu.
This made Shi Jiu on the side a little unnatural.
"For this catastrophe, you should have almost prepared for the Shuntian Dart Bureau, right?" Kim Yuna then asked.
"Well, it's not bad, anyway, everything that should be prepared has been prepared, and the rest is not something we can interfere with, but I am confident that my father will be able to successfully survive the catastrophe and enter the soul realm!" Speaking of this, Dong Hu drank himself again.
In Shi Jiu's opinion, Dong Hu was cheering himself up.
"Well, I also think that Uncle Dong can survive the catastrophe. Come, let's make a toast for Uncle Dong to survive the catastrophe. Kim Yuna proposed.
"Okay, a drink." Shi Jiu also agreed.
Suddenly, Dong Hu was a little excited, and after the three of them were full of wine, they raised their glasses and drank together.
In the largest tent, Dong Tianling, Mr. Spiegel, the Great Elder and others sat around the long table, and the atmosphere was warm.
"Anyway, with your brother Ming protecting the Dharma, I will be able to survive this catastrophe smoothly, come, let's have another drink." Dong Tianling said happily to Mr. Spiegel beside him.
"Brother Dong, let's drink less before the catastrophe, there will be a chance after drinking." Mr. Spiegel beside him persuaded.
"Don't worry, I can't delay the tribulation, if nothing happens, I plan to officially cross the tribulation the day after tomorrow." Dong Tianling drank the wine in the cup.
"Well, it's not too long to delay." Mr. Spiegel nodded in agreement, "In addition, I received news that Huo Qianli obtained the Crystal of Shura in the Yuanye Ancient Pit, and he should also try to cross the tribulation soon." ”
"I also received this news, I personally have a personal opportunity, as long as I can successfully enter the soul realm, the Fire Fist Gate is still not my opponent of the Shuntian Dart Bureau, in addition, after I successfully survive the Heavenly Tribulation, I will do my best to let the Great Elder also survive the Heavenly Tribulation, and when the time comes, a double soul realm powerhouse, even if it is the Peerless Palace or the Tonglin Palace, I am not afraid of the Shuntian Dart Bureau." After Dong Tianling finished speaking, he took a big sip of wine again.
"Okay, that's good, so that my Feng Bao Zhai's business in Lanhai County and other counties will be better." After that, the two toasted together.
