Ao Yu retreated to the other side of the raft and said, "Don't interfere, as long as you tell me that you want to study magic, I will definitely not interfere with you, you please continue to study." With that, he flipped backwards and jumped into the river.

People who have a fever in their own hair can't afford to offend.

"As for being so scared, it's the grandson of the dragon god. Hey, no, the fire energy is converted too early, and it is easy to explode after a long time, so you have to find a new point to cut into. Ding Kui muttered to himself.

Since then, sparks have exploded from time to time, but they are getting farther and farther away from Ding Kui, and Ao Yu's time underwater is getting longer and longer.

The demonic beasts in the lower reaches of the Wave River were spared because of Ding Kui's whim, and whenever he had time, Ding Kui would be immersed in the study of compound magic, and it was no longer important to kill the demonic beasts and collect the demon core.

The difficulty of this new type of composite magic fusion is very high for Ding Kui, and there is no shortcut to opportunistic shortcuts, so he can only keep trying again and again, summing up experience in failure after failure.

High-level magicians don't spend time on such low-level magic research, and middle- and low-level magicians are not qualified to study, Ding Kui happens to be in the middle of the first two, and it is rare that he thinks of it and is willing to spend time researching.

In February 4872, a fleet full of goods sailed into the "golden waterway" and sailed north to the country of Lü, each ship with the flag of the Lü Chamber of Commerce, it is not difficult to see that this is a fleet belonging to the Lü Chamber of Commerce.

In charge of the navigation safety of this fleet is a magician in his fifties, and this magician with a somewhat rounded face is an acquaintance of Ding Kui, who is none other than Pinghu, the magician of Kaita.

Pinghu's return to Lu Guo this time will become the enshrinement of the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, and he will no longer have to run around to deal with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce, and he will be eligible to enjoy most of the resources of the Lu Chamber of Commerce.

"Elder Ping, the cargo ship ahead has found a raft with a magician on it. "A sailor came to report.

"Oh, wait for me to take a look. "It's the first time Pinghu has encountered something like this.

This golden waterway of the Tongyuan River has merchant ships passing through all the year round, but it does not mean that this is a safe place, otherwise the Lu Chamber of Commerce will not arrange a tower magician to escort it.

A magician on a raft is a novelty.

Pinghu flew directly to the front of the fleet, and sure enough, he found two young men standing on a raft, and one of them, dressed in a black magician's robe, saw him and also rose into the air and flew towards him.

"Ahead is the fleet of the Lu Chamber of Commerce?" the young magician asked.

Seeing the other party's flight speed, Pinghu relieved himself and asked, "Exactly, old man Pinghu, who are you?

"Late into Xie Peng, a member of the Magicians Guild of the Shaodian Kingdom, traveled to the Hengduan Mountains with his companions, and just drifted from the Wave River to the Tongyuan River.

Master Ping, can you take us with you, we want to go to the north to have a look. Ding Kui recognized Pinghu and quickly changed his voice.

"Oh, you floated out of the waves. Pinghu rolled his eyes, "No problem, go to my boat, I'll be over soon." ”

Ding Kui and Ao Yu took the raft without encountering obstacles, and floated along the waves of the river to the Tongyuan River, where they encountered the cargo ship of the Lu Chamber of Commerce, which accounted for half of the shipping volume of the golden waterway.

The merchant ship that Pinghu was riding came, and as soon as Ao Yu stepped on the raft, the whole person jumped onto the merchant ship, which frightened the people on board.

"This is my companion Ding Yu, without him I really wouldn't be able to walk out of the Hengduan Mountains. Ding Kui introduced the surprised Pinghu.

"Yes, I have been to and from the golden waterway many times, and I have never seen anyone float out of the waves. Pinghu silently distanced himself from Ao Yu.

"He's a little bit closer to a good friend of mine. Ding Kui said deliberately.

"Oh, your friend's name?" a name appeared in Pinghu's mind, and his ability to return to the headquarters as an offering had a lot to do with this person.

"Ding Kui. ”

Pinghu first showed a stunned look, and then with a smile on his face, he stepped forward to take Ding Kui's hand and said, "Oh, Ding Kui's little friend and the old man are old friends, you are his friend and the old man's friend."

Come on, hurry up and put on the banquet. Come on, come on, sit in the cabin, you seem to have already finished your dry food, and you can eat and drink well at my place, let me greet you on behalf of Ding Kui's little friend. ”

Ouch, worthy of being a person from the Lu Kingdom, I really know how to pull relationships, when did I become friends with you? No wonder the business of the Lu Chamber of Commerce can be done in the whole continent.

Ding Kui showed a look of "surprise" on his face and asked, "I heard Ding Kui say that he has cooperated with the Lu Chamber of Commerce, are you?"

"That's right, the contract he signed with the Lu Chamber of Commerce was signed with the old man. Pinghu said indifferently, as if this was normal.

"Hehe, it's so fateful to meet Master Ping this time, I didn't expect that my little brother is not very old, and he knows a lot of people. On the way, I will bother the old man more. "Ding Kui can be regarded as pulling the relationship on.

Ao Yu looked at Ding Kui adoringly, and thought: You obviously know this person, and you can still pretend to be like this, it's really not easy to deal with humans.

The cabin was soon filled with wine and food, and it was not a trivial matter for the soon-to-be-enshrined Pinghu to entertain friends, and the ship's chef was ready to deal with it.

"Ahem, ahem, Ding Yu, no one is robbing you, there is Ping Lao, you are full. Ding Kui reminded Ao Yu, who was gobbling up, with an embarrassed face.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, he is a few years older than Ding Kui Xiaoyou, and the old man can eat better than him back then. By the way, what have you gained in the Hengduan Mountains?" Pinghu has not forgotten his profession, he is definitely an expert in acquiring magic cores.

"Bring it. Ding Kui stretched out his hand to Ao Yu, who was eating nonsense, and Ao Yu impatiently tore off his belt and threw a bag to Ding Kui.

"This is the first time we have entered the mountain, mainly traveling, and we have not gained much. Ding Kui told Ao Yu in advance that he would take out the demon cores to be sold and put them in a bag for each person, because it was inconvenient to take them out in front of others when they were placed in the space ring.

"That's right, there are a hundred third-level demon cores, fifteen fourth-level demon cores and thirty-five fifth-level demon cores here, and you two are quite powerful when you can kill so many middle-level demonic beasts when you enter the mountain for the first time. "Since there are not many of them, Pinghu takes it for granted that they have killed the demonic beasts.

"Well, we were also quite embarrassed, we were chased away by the monster, and our luck was not bad, so we escaped. Ding Kui's face was slightly red, those fifth-level demon cores were assigned to them by Kang Sheng, and he admitted that he had killed them a little weakly.

"Since it's a friend, then I'll make it clear," Pinghu put away his smile, "The Lu Chamber of Commerce generally buys the magic core at six or seven percent of the market price.

This time, I will return to Lu Guo to take up the position of the enshrinement of the headquarters, and the transaction with you is the last transaction, for Ding Kui's sake, I will buy your demon core at eighty percent of the market price. ”

"Oh, Ping Lao has been promoted, congratulations. This news was unexpected by Ding Kui.

"If you go to the north and bring more money, I'll make it up for you, and this batch of demon cores will be collected at 300,000 gold coins. "Pinghu is very arrogant, and now he has no need for gold coins.

Soon, someone gave three bearer gold coin cards with 100,000 gold coins.

Ding Kui gave Ao Yu one, and the remaining two were put into his arms, and Ao Yu rolled his eyes vigorously beside him.

Pinghu chatted with the two young men, and after a while they talked about his escort for the fleet.

"Isn't there no ship in Tongyuanjiang that has demonic beasts attacking humans? Why do you still need to escort the fleet?" Ding Kui didn't understand many things when he first came to Tongyuanjiang.

"The 'Golden Waterway' is the most important passage connecting the north and the south, thousands of years ago there were no ships to pass, not only because it had to pass through the core area of the Hengduan Mountains, but also because there were powerful magical beasts in the Tongyuan River.

The human race had gathered twenty god-level masters to join forces to open this channel, but just as they were about to kill the super demonic beasts entrenched on both sides of the core area, a huge turtle appeared in the middle of the golden waterway.

The turtle is said to have survived for an endless period of time, and its unfathomable magic power suppressed the human master on the spot, but the turtle did not want to cause killing, so he made a pact with the human.

Demonic beasts with a little wisdom are restrained and are not allowed to attack the human ships on the golden waterway, and humans cannot leave the ship when passing through the center of the golden waterway, and those who leave the ship are not protected by the agreement.

Low-level monsters don't understand any conventions, and occasionally attack human ships, so when passing through the golden waterway, humans will generally form a fleet, and each fleet will be escorted by about five levels of combat power. Pinghu simply told Ding Kui the secret of the golden waterway.

"It turns out that there is such a period of history," Ding Kui suddenly realized, "What is that turtle? It actually has such a strong strength to suppress twenty god-level powerhouses." ”

Ao Yu had already eaten and drunk enough, and was picking his teeth on the side, and his lips moved when he heard Ding Kui's words, but finally he couldn't help but say nothing.

"The ancestor of the founder of the Lu Chamber of Commerce is one of the twenty god-level powerhouses, according to him, in fact, the turtle does not have much strong attack ability, but it is completely unafraid of human attacks, the key is that it has endless magical power, once you can't think of it to explode, all the human powerhouses present will be spared, and they will all die with it. Pinghu explained the reason.

The twenty god-level powerhouses were afraid of self-detonation, wouldn't that be equivalent to a hydrogen bomb explosion, and the demonic beasts here would also play nuclear deterrence, Ding Kui thought to himself.

The sailor who had previously reported that Ding Kui had found him ran into the cabin at this time and said eagerly, "Elder Ping, there is a large flock of fire feather crows attacking. ”

"Oh, let the archers of the ships assemble. Pinghu stood up.

Ding Kui also stood up immediately and took the initiative to ask: "Hahaha, I just researched a new magic, and I'm worried that I don't have a goal to try the power, since they are sent to the door, let me go and say hello." ”

"The new magic you researched?" Pinghu didn't care, what new magic can a wand-wielding magician research, "Okay, let's go and see together, Xie Xiaoyou can show his strengths, and the old man will come to sweep the formation for you." ”
