Chapter 3 The Nine Heavens Alliance Chapter 22 The Mercenary Complains of Reason
In the mercenary hall, a group of people looked curiously at the second floor from time to time and whispered eagerly.
Mercenary A: "The woman who was just taken away is not Li Wen, the vice deacon of the Mercenary Guild." What did she do wrong?"
Mercenary B: "I know that. β
As soon as I heard that someone knew the truth, many people immediately gathered around. There are also some people, although they didn't come, but their attention is focused here.
Seeing that it was almost over, Mercenary B spoke: "The person who was taken away just now was originally the chief deacon here, named Li Wen, a son of the Li family in Chengtian City. Speaking of her, I am angry. What do we mercenaries rely on to live, isn't it just to complete tasks and collect commissions. But she is good, using her power to oppress those of us who refuse to honor her. If you don't give red envelopes to filial piety, she won't hand over tasks with high commissions to you. When receiving the commission, she deducted it for various reasons. In short, she doesn't give us people a way to live, but we don't dare to do anything with her. As he spoke, he sighed.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Mercenary A urged: "Brother, don't sigh, go on." Everybody is waiting. β
Mercenary B looked around and continued, "Perhaps it is God's mercy that Miss Zhen Zhen has been transferred here to replace Li Wen as the chief deacon. Unlike Li Wen, Miss Zhen Zhen is fair and never oppresses us. β
At this time, an observer asked, "What do you say have to do with what just happened?"
Before Mercenary B could speak, Mercenary A preemptively said, "I understand, Miss Zhen Zhen is fair, which naturally harms Li Wen's interests. Just now, Miss Zhen Zhen invited the young man to the VIP room, and of course Li Wen had to take the opportunity to find fault. But why was Li Wen escorted out?"
Mercenary B suddenly spoke, "Are you kid, can't you see my Miss Zhenzhen." Do you want to defend Li Wen?" as he spoke, he stared at Mercenary A viciously.
Mercenary A immediately apologized: "Brother, don't be angry, I'm just curious, in fact, I'm also a supporter of Miss Zhenzhen." β
When Mercenary B heard this, his expression relaxed, "Okay, for the sake of you being Miss Zhenzhen's supporter, I can tell you the answer." Think for yourself, Miss Zhen Zhen is so fair and intelligent, would she receive a teenager for no reason? That teenager's identity is definitely not simple. When Li Wen was the chief deacon, he was used to being powerful and blessed, but now, as the deputy deacon, he has not recognized the status quo, he has done something stupid, collided with the young man, and wanted to frame Miss Zhen Zhen, so he was escorted out. β
Mercenary A immediately echoed, "Brother, I want to call you big brother, the analysis is reasonable." The crowd got the answer and slowly dispersed.
A quarter of an hour later, an announcement appeared on the crystal bulletin board in the hall of the Mercenary Guild, "Vice Deacon Chief Li Wen rushed into the VIP and framed his boss, and this guild has temporarily cancelled his position, and the mercenaries are hereby informed." β
Mercenary A immediately said in a loud voice: "Look, big brother, I know that you are right, it's just a divine analysis." It's just that this punishment is too light, and the temporary cancellation of the position is really cheap for Li Wen, a vicious woman. β
Mercenary B immediately grabbed him, "Brother, scold, don't say so loudly." β
Mercenary A was a little puzzled, "What's the matter, can you say, I can't scold?"
Mercenary B pulled him and whispered in a low voice: "Just now, the mercenary of the Xu family came, and he happened to see you." β
Mercenary A was even more puzzled, "Lao Tzu is scolding Li Wen, what's the matter with the Xu family?" The Xu family, one of the two top families in the Nine Heavens Alliance, he knows this very well, but he really doesn't understand what he did wrong.
Mercenary B said even quieter, "Li Wen is the fiancΓ©e of the second young master of the Xu family. β
This news made Mercenary A collapse directly on the seat, the second son of the Xu family, where is the figure he can afford to provoke.
Mercenary B is also a little worried, he is not worried about Mercenary A, nor is he worried about himself, but he is worried about Miss Zhenzhen. The person Miss Zhen offended this time was not simple.
At this time, at the back door of the Mercenary Guild, Ji Zhenzhen watched Xingchen leave. She waved her hand slightly, and two figures suddenly appeared in front of her, half-kneeling on the ground.
"The sky is different, secretly follow Lu Xingchen and protect him. Ji Zhenzhen said.
"But, Miss, what about your safety?" said one of them.
"Isn't there still Tianwei, besides, a large number of people from the family will come here in the near future. It's okay, you can go!" said Ji Zhenzhen with a smile.
The speaker stopped arguing and disappeared into a puff of smoke. The other slowly disappeared into the darkness.
Ji Zhenzhen turned around and walked into the Mercenary Guild, just now those two were the secret guards of the Ji family, responsible for protecting her safety. On weekdays, he has been hiding near her.
The secret guard, the hidden power of the Ji family, and the establishment of official members, have always maintained the number of one hundred and eight, which is specially used to protect the outstanding children of the Ji family.
Originally, there was only one secret guard by Ji Zhenzhen's side, and now the reason why there are two secret guards to protect her is because her sister has disappeared. Yes, it disappeared, it disappeared three years ago, and the time coincided with the time when the stars disappeared. That's why she asked about the stars.
A year ago, Ji Zhenzhen's fiancΓ©, the third son of the president of the Mercenary Guild Headquarters, suddenly sent someone to deliver a life-saving object. Two months later, Ji Zhenzhen was transferred here by the Mercenary Guild Headquarters, and the head of the Ji family considered that this was a foreign country, so he also sent the idle secret guard.
......
In a tavern near the Yunlai Inn, the Seventh Elder, Lan Lan, was waiting here. The reason why this is so is because idle people and others cannot stay in the realm of the Yunlai Inn.
Outside the tavern, a turtle mount lay motionless on the ground like mud. This turtle is the silent mount turtle, and it really can't move at this time. In order to get to the Yunlai Inn in front of the stars, it almost tried its own turtle life. Finally, when it came to the vicinity of the Yunlai Inn, it was fortunate that it did not see the stars.
The turtle mount has no strength left, so even if a child teases it with cat grass, it will not react.
After a while, a young figure holding a little girl appeared in its sight, and it immediately stood up as if it had been beaten with chicken blood. Looks empowered, not tired at all.
After leaving the Mercenary Guild, Xingchen did not lease the Feiyun Ride anymore, but walked on the street with Silence. The Yunlai Inn is not near the Medicine Master City, but it is only twenty miles away from the Mercenary Guild, and with his footsteps, he can reach it quickly. Considering that it was the first time for Mo Mo to go to Zhongtian City, he was like this.
But he still missed a little, Mo Mo is a child after all, where can he go so far. After walking less than ten miles, a trace of exhaustion appeared on the silent little face. Xingchen had no choice but to pull her.
When he arrived near the Yunlai Inn, Xingchen saw from a distance the turtle mount lying on the ground like mud. This little turtle is quite desperate. It was just that he had just gotten a little closer, and the turtle mount stood up straight. Seeing this, he almost laughed. The thought that he needed to maintain his image in front of the turtle mount made him endure it.
Soon, Xingchen led Mo Mo to the front of the tavern, stared at the turtle mount, and said with a smile: "Little turtle, you are still so energetic, it seems that you haven't run enough." Do you want my brother to take you to the sea for a walk and consume it. β
When the turtle rider heard this, the strength in his chest was gone, and he was like mud again, "Senior, let the little turtle go! The little turtle didn't dare anymore." β
Xingchen smiled, "Next time, pay attention." The little turtle listened, and nodded with all his might.
Seeing the seventh elder of the Li family leading Lan Lan out of the tavern, Xingchen spoke: "Brother, let's go, let's go to the hotel." Then the four of them headed towards the Yunlai Inn.
The turtle mount behind was still lying there, and when Xingchen saw this, he suddenly said leisurely: "Little turtle, this guy seems to have enjoyed enough, and he has become lazy, and when he sees us walking, he doesn't keep up." I'm wondering if I should do away with its luxury mount treatment. β
When these words reached the ears of the little turtle, it suddenly got up like a whirlwind, and rushed towards the Yunlai Inn.
This change amused Lan Lan, and the Seven Elders also laughed. Silence also followed the joy, and the fatigue on his body was swept away.
Not long after Xingchen entered the Yunlai Inn, a dark shadow slowly appeared, she was the secret guard sent by Ji Zhenzhen. At this point, she didn't follow up, just wandered around. Just now, when she wanted to follow up, she received an unkind warning, an imposing warning from the guardian of the Yunlai Inn.
This momentum was obviously stronger than hers, and she had to wander around, waiting for the stars to come out.
