Suddenly, a loud noise came, and the door was kicked open. Ming Dong, holding a giant sword, rushed in from the outside and asked in a serious tone: "Jian Chen, what happened here?
." As he spoke, Ming Dong quickly glanced around. When he found the big hole on the roof, his eyes flashed, and then his eyes quickly focused on Jian Chen, and asked with a bit of concern in his tone: "
Jian Chen, are you okay?"
Jian Chen shook his head slightly and said: "I'm fine!"
"This is the Tianqin family, and we have just arrived in Valorance City, and we have not offended any enemies. How could someone come to attack you?" Ming Dong said with a strange look on his face.
Jian Chen chuckled lightly and said: "This is not an enemy, just someone they sent to test me."
"Testing you!" Ming Dong had a look of surprise on his face: "You mean the person who attacked you for no reason is..."
Jian Chen waved his hand to plan Ming Dong's next words, and said: "We should still understand these things tacitly, there is no need to say it out loud."
Ming Dong suddenly realized it and murmured: "No wonder the movement happening here did not attract the attention of the patrol guards. It turns out that the situation is like this."
"Okay, Ming Dong, it's getting late now, you should go back to your room." After saying that, Jian Chen simply cleaned up the scattered tiles on the ground, and then sat cross-legged on the bed.
"Okay then, I'll go back first." Ming Dong didn't stay here too long, and left after confirming that Jian Chen was okay.
The night passed by in a hurry, and in the early morning of the next day, Qin Xiao came to Jian Chen's door early. When he saw the door that was broken by Ming Dong's kick, his expression was slightly startled, and then he stood outside.
He shouted: "Brother Jian Chen, are you in there?"
"Qin Xiao, come in." Jian Chen's plain voice came from the house.
Qin Xiao immediately entered the house, but as soon as he entered the house, he discovered the big hole in the roof and some broken bricks and tiles remaining on the ground.
This scene made Qin Xiao's expression change slightly. He quickly glanced around and said quickly: "Brother Jian Chen, what happened last night? Why is the room so messy and there are traces of a fight."
Jian Chen smiled nonchalantly and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that we were attacked by a mysterious man in black. Brother Qinxiao, don't take it to heart."
"What, someone attacked you last night." Qin Xiao's face changed immediately, and then she was filled with anger, and she said angrily: "How could it be that someone sneaked into our Tianqin family to commit murder? It seems that those guards should be changed.
They are just a bunch of losers. What’s the use of keeping them? Brother Jian Chen, I’m going to report the matter to my father. Don’t worry, no matter who the person who attacked you is, my Tianqin family will not let this go.
The murderer, huh, no one in this city of Valorance dares to challenge the dignity of my Tianqin family." Qin Xiao was furious, and left in a hurry with a face full of anger. Jian Chen couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.
.
"It seems that Qin Xiao didn't know about what happened last night." Looking at Qin Xiao's disappearing back, Jian Chen stood in front of the window and murmured.
Soon, a group of people arrived at Jian Chen's residence. The leader was Qin Xiao. He was accompanied by the current head of the Tianqin family, and behind him were several middle-aged men dressed as guards.
Jian Chen quickly walked out of the house, bowed his hands to a group of people, and said, "I have met the head of the Tianqin family."
The head of Tianqin family chuckled and said: "Little brother Jian Chen, there is no need to be polite. I heard that little brother was attacked last night, I don't know if this is the case."
"It's true!" Jian Chen replied.
The face of the Tianqin family leader gradually became a little serious. He glanced at the door panel behind Jian Chen that was kicked in by Ming Dong. Then he walked into the room and took a closer look. His face became more and more embarrassed and angry.
He said: "It's really unreasonable, there are still people who dare to act wild in our Tianqin family." Then he stared at the several guards who followed him in, and shouted: "How did you become the captain of the guard team? The enemy sneaked in
Our Tianqin family is still fearless, we are just a bunch of losers, what use are you keeping?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged men looked panicked, and immediately knelt down and said repeatedly: "My family calms down, my master calms down, we will definitely do our best to track down the murderer, please give us a chance to atone for our sins."
"That's all. Considering that you have stayed in my Tianqin family for many years and have no merit but hard work, I will temporarily forgive you for this incident. When you return, you will immediately do your best to track down the murderer who infiltrated my Tianqin family."
The head of the Tianqin family had a calm face and said seriously.
"Thank you, Master, for your forgiveness. We will do our best to track down the murderer." Several guard captains kowtowed their thanks as if they had been pardoned.
The head of the Tianqin family turned to look at Jian Chen, and the majestic look on his face suddenly disappeared. He smiled slightly and said: "Little brother Jian Chen, I'm really sorry that you were attacked by an assassin in my Tianqin family.
, but you can rest assured that our Tianqin family will definitely do our best to track down the murderer and give little brother Jian Chen a satisfactory explanation."
The several guard captains next to them looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes. They had heard more or less about Jian Chen's origins, but he was just a friend of the eldest young master.
They are just friends, and as the head of the family, the head of the Tianqin family should be too kind to the young man who has just come to the Tianqin family and whose identity is not yet clear.
"Is there a powerful background behind this young man that we don't know about?" Several guard captains thought at the same time. Although they were full of questions about this issue, they were not qualified to ask it due to their status.
Jian Chen also felt a little flattered by the attitude of the Tianqin family leader. He did not dare to show any slightness at the moment and quickly said: "Master, you are so polite. It was just a trivial matter last night. There is no need to go to a lot of trouble. Maybe my former enemy came here.
Want to assassinate me."
Afterwards, the head of the Tianqin family said a few polite words and left. Before leaving, he ordered several guard captains in a serious tone to increase patrols and never allow this to happen again.
Qin Xiao came to Jian Chen. His burly body, which was two heads taller than Jian Chen, stood together with Jian Chen's slightly slender figure. They formed a sharp contrast and easily attracted attention.
Reaching out and patting Jian Chen's shoulder, Qin Xiao said: "Jian Chen, I frightened you last night. Fortunately, you were fine. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself."
Jian Chen chuckled, and after saying some polite words, Qin Xiao took him to wander around Valorance City.
The city of Valorance is very large, and the city is full of prosperity. Jian Chen and Ming Dong were taken around the city by Qin Xiao, the eldest son of the Tianqin family. In one day, the two of them had passed through several bustling streets.
neighborhood.
At this time, several people came to a large-scale building, with a plaque on it saying "Jinbaofang" with flying phoenixes.
"Jian Chen, this is the largest treasure shop in Valorance City. You can find many rare treasures in it. Let's go in and have a look." Qin Xiao said as he led Jian Chen and others into the treasure shop.
Square.
In the Treasure Square, there were many rich people wearing luxurious brocade robes looking around, and there were also some thick-looking mercenaries wandering around, looking attentively at some of the items placed on the display stand.
"Jian Chen, this place specializes in selling some weird gadgets. It's very messy. Even I don't know many of the things. However, you can find some utensils from the ancient times here. Although they are useless, they are still good for collection, so there are many
Powerful people like to visit here, but there are really people who can find one or two unknown treasures here." Qin Xiao's eyes wandered around, while explaining to Jian Chen, he looked at the items on the stand.
Suddenly, the purple-green sword spirit that had been entrenched in Jian Chen's dantian trembled slightly, and then a piece of consciousness flowed into Jian Chen's mind. Through the transmission of consciousness, Jian Chen actually felt the excitement of the purple-green sword spirit again.
Jian Chen's heart moved, he glanced above his head, and said to Qin Xiao calmly: "Brother Qin Xiao, I'm going to take a look around."
"Well, go ahead. I'll call you when I leave." Qin Xiao said.
Afterwards, Jian Chen and Ming Dong went straight to the second floor. When they first stepped onto the second floor, Jian Chen paused slightly, and then continued to climb up the stairs.
Jian Chen climbed up to the fourth floor and was stopped by two burly men at the entrance of the stairs. One of the men stared at Jian Chen with sharp eyes and said in a polite tone: "I'm very sorry, Mr.
, you must have a Zijin Card to enter here.”
Although the Zijin Card is a special card for saving money, in Tianyuan Continent, the Zijin Card has already become a symbol of wealth and status. Obviously, the fourth floor of the Treasure Pavilion requires a certain status to enter.
Jian Chen flipped his palm, and a card with purple light suddenly appeared in his palm. He looked at the two big men and said, "I can go in now."
"Of course, sir, please come in!" The two big men immediately made an invitation gesture.
Jian Chen walked in directly, but just when Ming Dong was about to go in, he was blocked by two big men again: "Sir, please show your Zijin Card. If you don't show your Zijin Card, according to our rules here,
According to the rules, you are not allowed to enter the fourth floor."
Hearing this, Ming Dong showed a bitter smile on his face and said to Jian Chen: "Jian Chen, you go in, I will wait for you below."
"Wait!" Jian Chen called out to Ming Dong, then turned his hand over, and a purple gold card appeared on his palm again. In Ming Dong's eyes full of surprise, he put his card into his hand, and then turned to look at the two
A big man said in a cold voice: "He can go in now."
The two big men looked at each other. After hesitating for a while, they finally clicked "Allow". Although they saw that the Purple Gold Card in Ming Dong's hand did not belong to them, the rule here was that as long as you hold the Purple Gold Card, you have access.
The qualification does not require that the Purple Gold Card must be your own, so Ming Dong’s example is also considered to meet the conditions.
The fourth floor of the Zhenbao Pavilion is very empty, surrounded by exhibition stands. There are strange items on them, including stones with strange patterns, strange iron blocks, iron sheets and stone flakes with strange patterns.
, there are also decayed wood as hard as iron and some precious ceramics that have a long history and were once collected by the most powerful people, etc. In short, there are many very weird things here, which are quite old, but they are not ordinary, but
