Chapter 448, Special Attention (II)
"This person is a little strange!" Zhu Xiao muttered in his heart, but his eyes swept up in the square. Soon, Zhu Xiao's eyes focused on a few people. This time, Zhu Xiao's gaze was indeed not focused on one person, but on several people.
The positions of these people were in the most inconspicuous places, and the four of them sat in the four corners of the square. If it weren't for Zhu Xiao not watching one by one this time, Zhu Xiao wouldn't have found the four of them.
The four of them don't seem to be connected at all, but that's not the case. Perhaps to hide their identities, all four of them wore different clothes. However, the four of them made eye contact from time to time, if Zhu Xiao hadn't happened to see it, Zhu Xiao wouldn't have known that the four of them must have come from the same sect or the same sect.
Ever since that person suddenly appeared and asked Zhu Xiao to return to Yatai City, Zhu Xiao guessed that someone might be unfavorable to him. These people are not so ordinary, Zhu Xiao couldn't help frowning slightly, and kept muttering to himself in his heart: "What is going on with these four people?
It's useless to think about it yourself, even if these people are really coming for themselves, Zhu Xiao doesn't have to worry. As long as Zhu Xiao is not so involved in the competition, there must be no problem. Besides, Zhu Xiao can't be disturbed when he is refining the pill, so these people will not be disturbed when he is refining.
At this moment, Qin Xuan saw Zhu Xiao who was thinking, and immediately asked with a smile: "Mr. Chixiao, I see that you are absent-minded, is there anything else you have discovered, if you know who is still strong, you must tell me!"
Zhu Xiao smiled kindly, but he did shake his head slightly, and said with a faint smile: "I didn't see anything particularly strong, but there were four people I was very concerned about." I don't know if your Alchemist Guild has any information about these four people, I think the four of them are not good!"
"Oh?" everyone looked at Zhu Xiao in surprise, the few people here were all alchemists, and they naturally knew what would happen if they suddenly broke into a few people with bad intentions during the refining process. After being surprised, Qi Yu asked, "Chixiao, who are you talking about? If they really have anything wrong, we have to take certain actions." Otherwise, if you realize it later, this is a big loss, and it is a loss that cannot be recovered. ”
Yi Zheng didn't believe Zhu Xiao like Qi Yu, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Mr. Chixiao, you can't be mistaken! You must know that in addition to the people who participated in the Alchemist Competition, there are many strong people in our Alchemist Guild who will come to participate in it. No one would dare to act rashly in such a tournament, and if they did, they would be killed in the shortest possible time. ”
Zhu Xiao didn't come to make a feud, so he didn't care about Yizheng's words, but said lightly: "I hope I guessed wrong! But the so-called caution is not a big mistake, I think you should pay attention to it, lest things get out of control at that time." ”
Yi Zheng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Qin Xuan, Qin Xuan pointed to the four people in the four corners, and said, "Chixiao, I think you are talking about these four people! You are right, these four people give people an elusive feeling. Although they deliberately hid their identities, it was easy to find out that the four of them were actually in a group. It seems that this time the Alchemist Contest will not be so peaceful!Yizheng, how many people are in charge of security this time?"
Yi Zheng also saw the unusualness of the four people at once, and immediately said solemnly: "This time, there are fifteen Martial King powerhouses in charge of security, and they are scattered all around. As long as someone dares to move, they will rush out at the first time. With these four people alone, there must be no way to set off a storm. ”
This kind of strength is indeed very strong, and it is more than enough to protect against emergencies, but after all, all of them are alchemists, and such measures are still somewhat insufficient. Qingquan frowned slightly, and immediately said seriously: "No, such a force is indeed very powerful, but it is difficult to ensure everything. Isn't there any other force in our Alchemist Guild, let them show up too! If we don't let them see our strength, it will make people think that our Alchemist Guild is easy to bully. ”
Yi Zheng looked at Qingquan in surprise, and then said softly, "President, are you talking about the secret guards? But the secret guards are the foundation of our Alchemist Guild, and they can't be dispatched easily!"
Qingquan looked at Yi Zheng coldly and snorted coldly: "Hmph, our Alchemist Guild is not a secret guard at all, but these alchemists. If someone were to go wild in the Alchemist Competition, it would hurt our foundation. ”
Yizheng was also shocked by Qingquan's appearance, and hurriedly said, "Yes, President, I know!" With that, Yizheng ran over.
Zhu Xiao, the secret guard of the Alchemist Guild, was also very curious, but Zhu Xiao would not be stupid enough to inquire about other people's secrets. Zhu Xiao looked directly at those people, and he was also very curious about who these people were coming for.
Qin Xuan nodded towards Qingquan and said, "Qingquan, you're right! For our Alchemist Guild, what secret guards are not our foundation at all. Our Alchemist Guild is composed of a group of alchemists, so the root of our Alchemist Guild is alchemists. This time the Alchemist Contest is very important, and it is no wonder that some people want to make trouble from it. Go and invite Bi Haiqian to me, I want him to help me with something. ”
Soon, Bi Haiqian came over. He can't miss this kind of competition. Moreover, there were quite a few people from the Whale Sea Gang who came with him this time, and presumably the Whale Sea Gang would also be one of the great helpers of the Alchemist Guild.
Bi Haiqian greeted a few people respectfully, and then hugged his fists and said, "Senior Qin Xuan, I don't know why you called the juniors here?"
Qin Xuan smiled and said lightly: "Bi Haiqian, if the old man guesses correctly, someone wants to disadvantage these participants in this alchemist competition." The Whale Sea Gang and my Alchemist Guild are in the same breath, this time, I want your Whale Sea Gang to help guard, and I must not let there be any mistakes here. ”
There was a trace of shock on Bi Haiqian's face, but he just nodded and said, "I know, the junior will do it!"
"Hmph, our Alchemist Guild wants to come and have no quarrel with others, this time someone dares to break ground on our heads, I want to see who has such courage!" Qin Xuan was obviously very angry, and a powerful momentum suddenly emanated, giving people an incomparably domineering feeling.
Others were a little discolored under Qin Xuan's domineering, but Zhu Xiao didn't feel too much pressure. Looking at the changes before and after Qin Xuan, Zhu Xiao couldn't help but guess in his heart: "No wonder this Elder Qin Xuan can get the respect of these three people, it seems that Elder Qin Xuan is definitely not an ordinary existence in the Alchemist Guild." ”
Qi Yu slowly walked to Zhu Xiao's side and said softly: "This secret guard is a group of dead soldiers cultivated by our Alchemist Guild itself, these people are very important to my Alchemist Guild, so they generally won't come out. This time the old guy was really angry, otherwise, he wouldn't have sent out the secret guards. But it's no wonder that if we were attacked during the Alchemist Competition, our Alchemist Guild would probably be over. ”
Zhu Xiao shook his head and said puzzledly: "Senior Qiyu, I don't think anyone dares to go wild in such a competition! It's not a big deal to kill a few alchemists, but the connections of the alchemists are the most terrifying! Once they find out which force it is, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand retaliation, right?"
Qi Yu nodded, but said, "The Alchemist Guild is a great help to any city, and our Shuofeng Town is not a very powerful city. Of course, a lot of cities are watching us. Obviously, if our Alchemist Guild is destroyed, these alchemies that have been gathered together a long time ago will be a big boost for the next Alchemist Guild. Many people are willing to do this, and the connections behind the Alchemist Guild are enough to influence all the forces of a party, but even if this is the case, what can you do? You know, the so-called connections are built when you are still alive, or when you are still useful. If the effort is far lower than the amount received, no one is willing to give. ”
Zhu Xiao nodded, indeed, the so-called connections are all illusory. When you are useful, those behind it are naturally willing to help you. But once you're on the verge of collapse, few people are willing to pull you up at such a time. The so-called icing on the cake is easy, and it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.
"But, Senior Qiyu, you have all taken root in Shuofeng Town, so you must know who your enemy is, right?
Qi Yu shook his head and said, "After all, we are the Alchemist Guild, and it is not as simple as you acting. The existence of the Alchemist Guild is far more complicated than the existence of a sect. ”
Zhu Xiao quickly understood Qi Yu's words, nodded, and Zhu Xiao said helplessly: "That's true, after all, the combat power of the alchemist is not very strong. Although every alchemist has their own connections, connections are not so useful at this time. ”
"Hahaha, don't think so much, let's wait for the start of the Alchemist Competition! If you want to move us, it's not that easy, it's just that others think too easily. ”
