"I'm telling you this now. I don't know if it's good or bad. On the mainland, many powerful forces will open up a space for themselves. Ordinary people can't enter there at all. Some even entire forces are hidden in the spaces they have opened up. They
They are not known to outsiders, but even with their strength as a Dan Pagoda, the Formation Sect, a powerful force on the entire continent, is extremely afraid of them!"
Mr. Ge said in a deep voice that those forces, even when he was at his peak, were extremely fearful, just like the forces that wiped him out. They usually don't show off their strength and will always kill them when they attack.
Lu Chen listened carefully, fearing that he would miss a word. The more he listened, the more intense the light in his eyes became.
"Of course, these are not the most terrifying things. What is terrifying is that some forces will seal away their ancestors, those who are powerful and still unable to extend their longevity, forever."
"Covered in dust? What does that mean?" Lu Chen was confused.
"Haha, I forgot. Your kid is completely blank about the entire continent, has no contact with it, and is covered in dust. You just use special means to preserve those old guys who are about to run out of life."
"Is this okay?" Lu Chen exclaimed. He had never heard of this statement before. Doesn't it mean immortality?
"In Lingtian Continent, there are countless anecdotes. Chenfeng is just one of the most common methods. There is nothing strange about it. Of course, Chenfeng's most commonly used method is spiritual crystals, unless other alternatives can be found.
, Otherwise, the amount of spiritual crystals consumed is a terrifying figure. If there is a big change within the clan forces and these existences are awakened, even these top forces will be distressed by the consumption."
"After the dust is sealed, these strong men will no longer be able to live a normal life?"
"What are you thinking about?" Mr. Ge smiled and patted the back of Lu Chen's head with his illusory palm, "Okay, you will get to know the things on the mainland yourself in the future. I don't know whether it is good or bad for my teacher to tell you this.
You must walk your own path, and all I can do as a teacher is to help you resolve your worries."
"Well, I understand, disciple. Don't worry, teacher. No one will think too high about strength. How can a person like me give up?" Lu Chen naturally knew the painstaking efforts of Mr. Ge and couldn't help but say.
"Haha, it's good for you kid to know. I'll leave the rest to you. I'll take a rest first. The remaining injuries from the last fire poison treatment haven't healed yet!"
Hearing what Mr. Ge said, Lu Chen felt guilty, "Little guy, just remember that I am your teacher!"
Elder Ge noticed Lu Chen's guilt and spoke. When the latter heard this, he always felt that there was something in the other person's words. He still didn't understand what he meant. He wanted to ask, but Elder Ge had already disappeared from the carriage.
"Master Lu..."
As soon as Mr. Ge disappeared, there was a call from outside the carriage. He opened the curtain and it turned out to be the businessman who warmed his wine. This made Lu Chen a little surprised. Looking at his face, there was a hint.
"Uncle Wen, let's talk about it after we get in the car. This carriage is yours. I feel bad about sitting there. If you stand outside again, I will have no choice but to get down and go on my own!" Lu Chen suddenly said in a loud voice.
When he yelled so loudly, the businessman in front of him was stunned for a moment, and then he realized, "Master Lu, isn't this inappropriate?"
"Look at what you said, Uncle Wen. How can it be inappropriate to get on your own carriage? Come on, come on!" As he said this, Lu Chen reached out his hand to give him a hand, but his figure shook and he almost fell down.
on the car.
"Thank you very much, Master Lu, for your kindness. Everyone, please clean up first while I have a few drinks with Master Lu!" After saying that, without waiting for anyone behind him to speak, he turned over and climbed into the carriage.
No one noticed that among the mercenary team and the traveling caravan behind them, a few pairs of greedy eyes stared at the two people in the carriage, who gradually disappeared from sight, and then waved their hands.
After getting into the carriage, the businessman surnamed Wen immediately changed his face, becoming submissive and very afraid of Lu Chen.
"Uncle Wen, you don't have to be so restrained. I used to go to your shop a lot when I was a kid. At that time, the old man was very strict and had no pocket money, but you always gave me a lot of candied haws."
Hearing this, the businessman surnamed Wen trembled slightly and his eyes were a little red. He knew that even if the young man in front of him grew to a level beyond his reach, he would always remember everything that had happened.
"Master Lu, thank you for remembering my old bones. I have watched you grow up. I don't want you to end up on this road. I am already old. I can write to you before I die. Even if I die, it will be worth it!"
"
Uncle Wen wiped the tears from his eyes and murmured. He originally wanted to come up and take a look. If the child he watched grow up really turned into the murderous demon outside the city, he would pretend he didn't know anything. The result before him made him very happy.
.
"Uncle Wen, please just say it if you have anything to say, right..." Lu Chen didn't finish his words and looked outside the carriage.
Uncle Wen nodded, "Master Lu, I will create chaos later. You can take advantage of the chaos and leave quickly. Other businessmen don't know, but I know clearly that there are several foreign businessmen colluding with mercenaries. I'm afraid they are returning this time."
not going!"
When Lu Chen heard this, his whole body was shocked. This was his first time out of the city to experience something like this. Those mercenaries were all registered in the isolated city, which made him feel angry.
"Humph, they are looking for death!" Lu Chen's eyes flashed coldly, "Uncle Wen, you go back first, do whatever they say, and be sure to protect yourself!"
"But..." Uncle Wen had a worried look on his face. Seeing the confident look on the young man in front of him, and then thinking about the heart-stopping battle outside the lonely city, the worry in his heart diminished a little.
"Master, be careful!" After saying that, Uncle Wen opened the curtain and retreated.
At the moment when the car curtain was lifted, Lu Chen glanced outside the car. Sure enough, the hired mercenaries and several businessmen were looking inside the car. When they saw the car curtain was lifted, they hurriedly turned around to avoid it.
"The mercenaries registered in Gucheng actually colluded with businessmen. This needs to be dealt with properly. Otherwise, no one would dare to go to Gucheng to do business. Without merchants, what would be the difference between Gucheng and a dead city."
A cold light flashed in Lu Chen's eyes, and he made up his mind. After finishing the matter here, he would write a letter and ask Uncle Wen to take it back. With Lu Yunfeng and the others here, Lu Chen would naturally feel relieved about this kind of thing.
"Hey, Mr. Wen, I asked you not to disturb Mr. Lu's rest, don't you understand? Mr. Lu was seriously injured trying to save everyone. Can you afford it if something happens to him?"
As soon as Uncle Wen returned to his goods, several businessmen immediately gathered around him, ready to give him a good beating.
"Stop, you guys, Mr. Wen is also our employer. If something happens to him, will you pay the commission? Don't forget, the commission will be doubled if something like this happens!"
Seeing that Uncle Wen was about to be beaten, Lu Chen clenched his fists and was about to take action when the mercenary captain's voice suddenly sounded.
"Yes, yes, yes, we know we were wrong. Mr. Wen, please remember, Master Lu is the benefactor of all of us. Don't bother us anymore!" After saying that, several people winked and retreated.
Seeing a few people retreating, the mercenary captain also breathed a sigh of relief. The mercenaries have all registered with the mercenary guild when accepting missions. The success or failure of this mission is related to the next mission. If something goes wrong in the mission, it will be a small matter if you can't receive the commission.
I'm afraid that they will never be allowed to enter the mercenary guild.
Whether they can accept the mission of the mercenary guild or not is related to their next murder and robbery.
"Mr. Wen, are you okay?" the mercenary captain asked Uncle Wen with a concerned look on his face.
Uncle Wen shook his head, his face a little pale, "It's okay, it's okay!"
"As long as it's okay, these people are really unreasonable. Mr. Wen went to visit Young Master Lu with good intentions, but why did he disturb Young Master Lu's rest when it came to their mouths?"
The mercenary captain looked very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
"Mr. Wen, I'm sorry. You know our rules. I can only help you so much. After all, they are also employers!"
Uncle Wen nodded, "I can understand, it's okay!"
"Hmph, these people only care about interests. How can Mr. Wen let them bully him if he values friendship so much? If it happens again, I will kill them." A sharp look flashed in the mercenary captain's eyes, and he suddenly spoke.
Snapped!
There was a sound, his hand trembled, and the water bag in Uncle Wen's hand fell to the ground and exploded.
"I'm coming, I'm coming, Mr. Wen, I'm sorry, I'm talking about those who know the benefits. I didn't expect to scare Mr. Wen."
"Nothing, nothing!" Uncle Wen was very cautious, spoke very little, and did not strike up a conversation with the mercenary captain beside him.
When the latter saw Uncle Wen's appearance, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth and suddenly put a hand on Uncle Wen's waist.
"Old guy, since you won't eat the toast, just drink some fine wine and be quiet. If you don't cooperate, I'm afraid you won't be the only one who dies!"
Uncle Wen trembled when he heard this. He looked back and saw that the mercenaries had surrounded all the merchants in the center intentionally or unintentionally. Only a few retreated. Obviously, those who went out were the merchants who had colluded with the mercenaries who had just registered in the isolated city.
.
With a dagger pointed at his waist, Mr. Wen's face turned pale. He had run countless business trips and was so close to death for the first time.
"As long as you make any changes, not only will you die, but these businessmen will also be buried with you, and the carriage will instantly turn into a hornet's nest. Do you think the unsuspecting Young Master Lu can handle it?" the mercenary captain said,
While holding Uncle Wen hostage, he walked towards the woods.
"Old guy, tell me, how is that boy Lu Chen's injury?"
"The injury is not serious. If it had been delayed for a few days, I would probably not have survived."
"Really?" The mercenary captain was overjoyed when he heard this.
Uncle Wen nodded and looked at the dagger on his waist.
"I'm sorry you don't dare to lie. It's not worth it to sacrifice your life for a boy you don't even know!"
As he finished speaking, he waved his hand to the surrounding treetops, and several spears passed through the woods with a sound of breaking through the air, instantly piercing the carriage.
"Master Lu!"
…
When Uncle Wen saw that the carriage was penetrated by a spear, he cried out in grief, burst into tears, and looked regretful.
He had no children in his life. The first time he saw Lu Chen, he was full of love. He originally wanted to buy him over, but after asking about him, he found out that he was actually the young master of the Lu family. After sighing, he could only give up the idea of buying him.
Keep it in your heart.
He never thought that many years later, he would watch the child he had always loved die in front of his eyes.
