Chapter 347: Stared at
Coming out through the spatial gate of the Holy Land, Jian Chen found that he had appeared in a garden, fifty meters in front of him, a very obvious pavilion stood there, baptized by wind and frost, giving people a sense of vicissitudes.
This place Jian Chen was no stranger, he had just come here not long ago, and it was here that he met the Eighth Elder and the Thirteenth Elder who were playing chess in the pavilion.
A figure flew quickly from afar, and soon landed in front of Jian Chen, this is a middle-aged man with a weak appearance, giving people a kind of knowledgeable charm, as if he is a scholar who has read poetry and books, the middle-aged man is wearing a white robe, his appearance is dignified, and a pair of plain eyes flicker from time to time.
Jian Chen's ability to fly from the other party's sky knew that this middle-aged man was at least a Sky Saint Master, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and when he was about to ask, he didn't expect the middle-aged man to speak first: "You should be Jian Chen." ”
Jian Chen forcibly swallowed the greetings that rolled into his throat, nodded and said, "Yes, I am Jian Chen." ”
"The elder ordered me to come and take you out, you come with me. The middle-aged man said in a flat tone, and then with a wave of his hand, Jian Chen only felt that a powerful energy between heaven and earth was so strong that he couldn't resist it, and then his body actually rose from the ground and was carried into the air by the middle-aged man.
"Could this be the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi controlled by the Sky Saint Master?" This was not the first time Jian Chen had experienced such a thing, so he didn't make a fuss, but tried his best to feel the power that enveloped him.
The middle-aged man flew at a very low altitude, only ten meters above the ground, flying over a sea of flowers, and the speed was very fast.
After a short time, Jian Chen was taken by the middle-aged man to a spatial door, and the middle-aged man landed and said to Jian Chen, "You go over here." ”
Next, Jian Chen's original path returned, and through this spatial gate, Jian Chen's appearance appeared in the building complex of the large-scale palace model in the mercenary city, and then was taken to a temple by one person, and saw an old man with crane hair and a childish face, and the old man handed Jian Chen a badge and said: " This is a badge of honor belonging to the king of mercenaries, made of many precious materials, and we have carved a formation inside, which can be activated with the power of the saint, and after activation, it can quickly gather the heaven and earth vitality within a radius of dozens of miles, so that people's cultivation speed is greatly increased. ”
Jian Chen's heart moved, and he immediately thought that if he put this badge in the Flame Mercenary Group or Changyang Mansion, he would probably be of great help.
Jian Chen took the medal of honor and carefully kept it, and then left this temple, and finally walked out under the leadership of the insiders of the mercenary city, and came to a street.
Looking at the bright sunshine in the sky, Jian Chen stretched out his body with a comfortable face, he had stayed in the holy land for a long time, he had not seen the sun for a long time, and now as soon as he bathed in the sun, he felt a refreshing feeling from the soul all over his body.
Now it has been half a year since the mercenary competition, and the originally lively mercenary city has also returned to its former appearance, although it has become much colder than half a year ago, there are still many mercenaries or carriages with carts and carts of goods flowing in the streets.
As a holy place in the minds of the mercenaries on the Tian Yuan Continent, the mercenary city is prosperous all year round, and there is an endless stream of mercenaries in the streets and alleys.
Now that winter has passed, it is the hot summer, so the scorching sun in the sky is very hot, the strong sunlight bakes the earth, making the earth hot like a furnace, and the sword dust is stained with the dark and damp breath of the holy land under such a strong light, and it quickly becomes dry and hot.
Jian Chen came to the square in the center of the mercenary city, and now this huge square has become a traffic artery extending in all directions, and countless mercenaries riding demonic beast mounts pass through it, and it is no longer as lively as half a year ago.
And the stone statue of Mo Tianyun, the founder of the City of Mercenaries, still stands on the square like an optimus pillar, full of charm, as if he is a real person.
Now Jian Chen's mind already has some fragments of the mystery of heaven and earth, and now he looks at Mo Tianyun's stone statue and the result he got half a year ago is completely different, in his eyes, Mo Tianyun's stone statue seems to contain infinite mystery, although he just stands with his hands in his hands, but it gives him a strange feeling, as if this is not a stone statue in front of him, but a heaven and earth, at a glance, this stone statue seems to be integrated with the entire heaven and earth, he is even the sky, the sky is even him.
Jian Chen stared at Mo Tianyun's stone statue for a long time before he gradually came to his senses, and then bowed respectfully to Mo Tianyun's stone statue before leaving here. As he learned more about the City of Mercenaries, Jian Chen's admiration for Mo Tianyun in his heart was also deepening.
Jian Chen walked aimlessly through the streets, and finally entered a restaurant, ordered a few drinks and dishes at random and began to eat, he had stayed in the holy land for so long, he had not eaten these delicacies of the mountains and seas for a long time.
It's afternoon now, and it's past noon time, so the restaurant is very quiet, and there is only Jianchen alone.
At this moment, three middle-aged men also walked in from outside, and then walked straight to a table and sat down, "Xiao Er, bring some good wine and meat." ”
Jian Chen's gaze swept lightly over the three of them, and silently began to solve the food on the table.
"Kuroko, after completing this mercenary mission, our mercenary group can also be smoothly upgraded to a B-level mercenary group. One of the middle-aged men said to a dark-skinned man beside him.
The dark-skinned man nodded, and said: "Yes, our mercenary group was B-level three years ago, and we have completed so many mercenary tasks in the past three years, and the accumulated honors are almost the same, and when we complete this mission, it will indeed allow our mercenary group to be upgraded to B-level." ”
The three middle-aged men were all old mercenaries, and while eating, they were talking about some mercenary things, and their eyes also glanced at Jian Chen, who was eating with his head stuffy, from time to time.
After a stick of incense, Jian Chen was full of wine and food, patted his stomach with satisfaction, and said, "Xiao Er, do you have a good room here, prepare one for me." As he spoke, Jian Chen directly placed a purple gold coin on the table.
"Okay, objective, I'll arrange a room for you, you wait!" Xiao Er accepted a purple gold coin from Jian Chen's face with a smile on his face, and then began to get busy.
Jian Chen looked at the three middle-aged men, a meaningful smile appeared on his face, and then slowly walked over and said, "Three, I don't know what to call them." ”
The sudden arrival of Jian Chen made the three unprepared middle-aged men stunned, but they quickly recovered, and one of them immediately stood up, and said with a smile on his face: "In Xia Jianhua, these two are my iron buddies, respectively Heizi and Baole, I see that your little brother is extraordinary, and at a glance, I know that Lu Dao is not an ordinary person, and I don't know what to call the little brother." ”
"Under Jian Chen!" Jian Chen said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, the three middle-aged men were taken aback, and then stared at Jian Chen's face incredulously, and the middle-aged man named Jianhua immediately said with a surprised face: "Could it be that the little brother is the Jian Chen, who won the first place in the mercenary competition half a year ago!"
"It's down there!" the smile on Jian Chen's face looked weird.
"Ah, it turns out that the little brother is Jian Chen, it's really disrespectful! Disrespectful! The reputation of the little brother is like thunder, I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see it today, it is really a blessing for the next three people. Jianhua's attitude immediately became complimentary, and the other two also greeted Jian Chen with a surprised face, very polite.
Seeing the three of them look like this, Jian Chen finally showed a sneer, and said, "Three, don't act with me, tell me what you mean." ”
Hearing this, the three of them all stared at Jianchen with a stunned face, their faces were full of confusion, and Jianhua was even more confused, and asked suspiciously: "Little brother Jianchen, what are you talking about?"
Jian Chen snorted coldly: "The three of you have followed me for several days, do you really think I don't know what to do?" ”
Jianhua looked stunned, then smiled and said, "Little brother said that it was funny, how could we follow you, maybe because of a coincidence, we are walking exactly the same road." ”
"If I'm right, the three of you should be from the Jed family or the Shi family. Jian Chen's gaze became sharp, and he stared at the three of them as sharply as a sharp sword.
The three of them were still at a loss, and Jianhua was even more innocent, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Jianchen, we don't understand what you're talking about, you misunderstood us." ”
Looking at the looks on the faces of the three of them, Jian Chen also knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he simply stopped wasting time and went straight to the second floor.
After the sword dust disappeared, the blank look on the faces of the three of them suddenly dissipated cleanly, and turned gloomy.
"I didn't expect him to be alert, and he found out that we were following so far away. Jianhua said in a low voice.
"So what do we do now?" Kuroko asked in a low voice.
"What else can be done, of course, is to inform the elders. ”
Then, after throwing down a purple gold coin, the three of them quickly left the place.
......
In a luxurious restaurant, an old man was staring at the three middle-aged people kneeling in front of him with an angry face, pointing at the heads of the three and scolding: "Waste, waste, it's just a bunch of waste, let you follow one person and even be discovered by the other party, what are you all eating, so useless." ”
These three middle-aged men are the three of them Jianhua and Heizi, and at this moment, the three of them are kneeling there with pale faces and trembling, and they don't dare to take a breath.
"Elder, we can't be blamed for this, we have been very careful in tracking the target, but the target's vigilance is too strong, so we were discovered. Jianhua quibbled with some horror in his tone, exonerating the three of them.
At this time, the door was opened, and another old man walked in from the outside, the old man looked at the three middle-aged men kneeling on the ground, frowned slightly, and asked, "Fourth, what happened." ”
"It's not these three wastes, Jian Chen just came out of the Holy Land, and finally discovered his whereabouts, and when these three wastes followed him, they were discovered by Jian Chen, which ruined our big thing. The old man, known as the fourth old, jumped like thunder and scolded angrily.
