Section 9 Blue Panther Mercenary Regiment
It was another sunny morning, and the sun crept up into the sky from behind the mountains, and the darkness of the night was gradually reflected in the morning glow.
By the time the first rays of sunlight hit the tents, the campers had already packed up their bunks and washed. The camp was filled with the faint smell of porridge. Blue Point takes a deep breath and indulges in the gifts of the forest. A chill entered my throat, and I suddenly felt refreshed.
Looking back and chuckling, seeing the two who were still asleep, Qing Feng inevitably felt ashamed. They were tossed by themselves all night last night, and they didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning. Qing Feng didn't rush to wake the two of them, got up on his own, and wandered slowly and aimlessly between the camps.
There seemed to be some unfamiliar faces in the camp, and Qing Feng guessed that the scout who was in charge of guarding outside might have returned early in the morning. At this moment, the people who had rested for the night all walked out of their tents, and there was a bustle in the camp. Cooking, washing, feeding horses, dismantling tents, and overhauling vehicles. Everyone is doing their job, in good order, and ready to go.
Qingfeng strolled curiously, everyone in the camp didn't seem to be all the way, and there were all kinds of dresses. The broad-shirted merchants with big bellies, the cheerful young men in Tsing Yi, the hard-working handymen, and of course, the most are the warriors in strong clothes who patrol around. Needless to say, it must be a member of the Blue Panther Mercenary Group who dealt with last night.
Qing Feng slightly estimated the strength of the other party, and found that there were as many as 100 members on the stage, and it should be a shili who was not weak. Seeing that everyone was quite relaxed and busy with the work at hand, Qingfeng knew in his heart. Running around all year round has allowed them to develop their skills, and complicated trivial matters can be described as very troublesome for others. Once in their hands, it couldn't be simpler.
There was a loud shout from Huo Ran in the center of the camp. The crowd stopped what they were doing, tidied up for a while, and then came to the cauldron next to the central tent in an orderly manner and formed a long line. Of course, the people in line are all dressed up, and the fat-headed merchants have their own little servants to serve their food, and they will never look down on the dregs of what is called pig food.
Qing Feng stood aside in a daze, although his stomach was empty, but he was helpless and not familiar with everyone, but he was embarrassed to open this mouth. At this moment, neither advance nor retreat, I don't know what to do. A small hand gently patted Qing Feng's shoulder, Qing Feng was slightly stunned, and looked back.
Behind Qing Feng, at this moment, stood an ordinary teenager with dark brown curly hair, round face, and freckles, who could not be distinguished in the crowd at all. The young man looked at Qing Feng with a shocked face, a sincere smile on his face.
"New here, hungry, aren't you?"
Qing Feng smiled lightly and nodded back.
"Hello, I'm He Jin, eleven years old this year, a trainee warrior in the regiment, welcome to the Blue Panther Mercenary Regiment. ”
"My name is Duan Qingfeng, and I happen to be twelve this year. Passing through here, bothering your group, please take care of it. ”
The young man was beaming, and the age of the members of the group was very different. I don't have a peer to communicate with on weekdays, and although it's fine, it's always a little awkward. At breakfast today, I suddenly saw a person of the same age, and I came up to talk out of curiosity, not wanting it to go so well.
"You haven't had breakfast yet, have you?" He Jin asked with a smile when he saw that Qingfeng was empty-handed.
Qingfeng smiled but did not answer, and nodded slightly.
He Jin looked down at the big bowl in his hand, and casually split the wheat bread in the bowl into two and handed it to Qing Feng.
Qing Feng didn't answer, he just clearly saw that the whole group who received breakfast, all the members of the group were quotas, no exceptions. If Qingfeng shared He Jin's breakfast at this moment, then He Jin would definitely be hungry.
handed it a few times, but seeing that Qingfeng didn't answer, He Jin was in a hurry. Breaking open Qingfeng's palm, he forced half of the bread into Qingfeng's hand. Seeing that Qing Feng finally stopped refusing, He Jin heartily daxiao.
"Thank you Brother He for your kindness, but there are still three brothers who have eaten. Even if you can share it with me, you can't solve their problems. ”
"This ...... This one...... Indeed......" He Jin couldn't help but be embarrassed, and the laughter stopped abruptly.
"Hey, the new guy, and your buddy, if you don't eat breakfast, if you don't eat, I'm going to put the pot away!"
Everyone had finished their breakfast and walked aside to eat, and the sister-in-law, who was in charge of the spoon, was idle, and saw the two and a half children pushing around, thinking that the food she had made was not to their liking. At this moment, he was shy, brandishing a huge soup spoon, and shouted viciously at Qing Feng.
Qing Feng was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the people around him. Seeing that they didn't care, he immediately smiled, returned half of the bread in his hand to He Jin, and walked towards the sister-in-law of the Yaksha with a big grin......
――
An hour later, everyone was ready, and the team set off. Qingfeng and the others followed the Blue Panther Mercenary Group all the way, slowly walking towards their destination.
After a week of coexistence, Qingfeng and the others have already figured out the routine of the Blue Panther Mercenary Group. Day to day, day to night, no exceptions.
Although the strength of this hundred and ten people is quite strong, it is enough to deal with the provocation of low-level and even mid-level demonic beasts on the edge of the Warcraft Forest. However, the mercenary group is very cautious and will not take risks easily. The mercenary group lives a life of licking blood with knives, and every member has already pinned his head to the waistband of his trousers. Even so, no one wants to lose their lives easily. If we want to survive better, we must work together to deal with hardships and dangers, and we need unified command and management. The Blue Panther Mercenary Group is particularly prominent, and it is absolutely forbidden to enforce orders, without the slightest disobedience.
The Blue Panther Mercenary Regiment may not be a high-level mercenary group. This can be seen from the fact that after years of hard work, it still only reaches the C level. However, the militarized management system of the Blue Panther Mercenary Group has greatly strengthened the team's combat capability, and even in the face of seventh-order demonic beasts, it is enough to deal with it.
――
For many days, He Jin has been visiting the Qingfeng tent on time every morning. There were three more teenagers of the same age, and He Jin was twelve points of joy. He will never be lonely again, and his lively personality will not take long for him to integrate into Qingfeng's small circle. Pulling partners to blow the sea together, they are happy. Qingfeng and the others also learned more information from He Jin's words.
There was a little surprise that Qing Feng was very surprised, and He Ming, who ignored Qing Feng and the others after meeting for the first time, actually appeared again. also deliberately told the members of the group not to deliberately alienate Qingfeng. Those who can help can help, and those who are inconvenient can provide consultation and let them solve it on their own. This is the reason why several people can enjoy the group meals exclusive to the group members for a few days.
If it weren't for He Ming and He Jin's grandson who inadvertently talked about it in the conversation, and then He Jin's big speaker told it, Qingfeng and the others would have been kept in the dark, thinking that everyone in the group was like this for outsiders.
Qingfeng shook his head secretly, Jiang is really old and spicy. Even if he didn't see the depth of everyone, he made a decision not to be evil to everyone just based on their clothes and conversation, which shows He Ming's wisdom.
――
The Blue Panther Mercenary Regiment is mainly engaged in the business of guarding, and part-time is engaged in the trading of some mid- and low-level Warcraft crystal nuclei and furs. In the Northern Regions, it can be said to be a little famous. On this trip, the regiment took over a long-distance escort mission between Hult City and the Elven Forest. The mission was issued by a group of scattered merchants who roamed the northern regions and had little capital, but had to hire a professional team for their own safety.
The places where the merchants go vary, but the general direction is the same. This time, Qingfeng happened to meet the people who had returned from the Elven Forest. Along the way, every few days, a team of more than a dozen people would be divided into the team to escort a group of merchants away. A few days later, we will meet at the promised place ahead.
Qing Feng was curious and also asked He Jin. He Jin bluntly pointed out that this was the survival of small merchants in the Northern Regions. Even if it is the same commodity, everyone divides their own business territory and never crosses borders. Coexist in harmony with each other, and make money in harmony.
Qing Feng smiled and didn't comment on it, but he secretly slandered it in his heart. It seems that the Northern Regions are indeed vast and sparsely populated, and the same is true for both merchants and merchants. All walks of life, no competition, naturally make a lot of money. It is no wonder that even small businessmen are so brightly dressed, with fat heads and big ears, and they are arrogant and arrogant.
As the days passed, Qingfeng's relationship with everyone gradually became harmonious, and he talked about everything on weekdays. And the number of merchants in the team is also getting smaller and smaller. After a month, the number of merchants in the team was only half of what they had started.
――
The two rivers of the east and west converge here, forming a large river dozens of zhang wide, and the waves are rolling towards the south. On both sides of the river, there are fine cobblestones, stacked and staggered, and there are countless of them. The Forest of Warcraft was abruptly split in two, and the river stretched into the mountains in the distance, constantly crashing against the banks of the forest. Over the years, a low-lying area has been formed that is different from the topography of the rest of the forest. This is the north-south Grand Canyon that crosses the entire Warcraft Forest, which is known to the world.
It is the main north-south transportation artery, and it is the only relatively safe route from the northern region to all parts of the mainland. At this moment, hundreds of people appeared in Huo Ran, a hundred meters away from the confluence of the big river, saying goodbye to each other and reluctantly.
"Don't send it, don't let it go, I don't know when he will see each other in the future, please take care!" Qingfeng arched his hand, led the two people and one beast, broke away from the team, and slowly walked towards the canyon in the distance.
He Jin kept waving his arms goodbye. After many days of getting along, everyone established a deep friendship. At this moment, there is a lot of reluctance. Although He Jin repeatedly invited Qingfeng to visit Hot City, the base camp of the Blue Panther Mercenary Regiment, Qingfeng was eager to go to Tianjing and resolutely refused.
Looking at the figure in his eyes that was getting smaller and smaller, Qing Feng couldn't help but sigh. He Jin is a true temperament, brothers fellowship, and honest with each other. Qingfeng was also reluctant to leave, but the great hatred was in his body, so he could not slack off at any time. I can only hope that we will meet again in the future if we have the opportunity.
Waving his hand into the distance again, Qing Feng resolutely turned around, and without looking back, he led the two people and one beast into the dangerous and unknown North and South Grand Canyon......
