"Young Master." The woman's smile was a little stiff. After all, the three Tianwu Realm masters were no joke. The commission alone was a sky-high price, which could bring her enough commission: "The best person to hire Tianwu Realm masters in the Yanwu Hall is
The base price is five hundred thousand taels of gold. Depending on the danger of the task, you must meet and discuss with the employer. The place where the young master wants to go is Nakano Castle..."
"kindness."
"Then it won't be easy." The woman smiled, feeling sweat on her forehead. That was at the other end of the wild forest, only a hundred miles away from the Henghai Desert. It would be there in the blink of an eye.
A deserted ancient city is bound to be in crisis. The key is that recently, I seem to have heard that the major aristocratic families in the city are also planning to go there. I don’t know why?
The woman didn't mention anything superfluous. She just introduced Feng Jueyu according to his level, and then moved Feng Jueyu to the second floor again. This time it was the VIP room, and asked Feng Jueyu to wait there for a long time.
After more than an hour, the woman walked in with a smile on her face.
"This young master, some people have become interested in the mission issued by the young master. The young master can go to the next door to meet them."
"good."
As the woman came to the next door, she opened the door and walked in. There were three people sitting in the spacious room. What surprised Feng Jueyu was that the three of them were all young. The oldest was only fifty, and the youngest was only in his early forties.
Left and right, two men and one woman.
Sitting on the left side is a strange man wearing a black cloak. He has unibrows and triangular eyes. His appearance is a bit wretched, but his imposing manner and serious expression do not show any wretchedness. On the contrary, this person's
His eyes were clear, like a pool of clear water, spotless.
As for the other man and woman, they should be a couple. The man is big and round, and there are no weapons on the edge of the table or on his body. It can be clearly found that the man’s palms resting on the armrest of the chair are strong and powerful, giving people the impression of a huge
The pliers, I'm afraid his kung fu is related to his palms and fists.
The woman is dignified and polite, with a good appearance. There is a dagger beside her. For a woman in her forties, her skin is fair and smooth, and there are not too many crow's feet on her face. It is considered good-looking, but let Feng Feng
What Jue Yu is satisfied with is that the girl is Daya Shouzhong and does not seem to be a narrow-minded person. This is what makes Feng Jue Yu more satisfied.
It can be said that after an interview, Feng Jueyu was very satisfied, and he also knew that he did not have too many choices. Although Yanwu Chang had brought together warriors from all over the world, there were only so many in the Tianwu realm. Didn’t you listen to what the girl in front of the counter said?
, Young Master is so lucky that someone took over the task so quickly.
Listen, good luck!
Seeing Feng Jueyu walking in, the three of them did not move at all. They all looked at Feng Jueyu with strange eyes. If the three of them were unmoved when they saw Feng Jueyu, it would be a lie. After all, the employer provided the task.
He's too young, don't look at the beard on his face, it's different from the steel needle-like beard of a tough guy or an old man in his forties or fifties. Even if it's a little thicker, it's still very soft, and it's the first time you see it.
Grow a beard.
"You three, you're polite." Feng Jueyu entered the room and said hello with fists in his hands, then sat down next to him.
"You are going to Nakano City?" The man in black robe seemed a little surprised, and a couple were no exception. In fact, in their opinion, there is a relatively safe shortcut from the Wild Forest to Nakano City, but there are still certain risks.
It's dangerous, and even they have to be careful. Since the employer is looking for someone who is familiar with shortcuts, he must know something about Nakano Castle.
Nakano Castle is an ancient city that existed decades ago, so the three of them always thought that the person who hired them must be an old man. Unexpectedly, the person they met turned out to be a young boy. They all said that he could not do anything with his words.
Did this guy come here because he was afraid that people would think he was young and had grown a beard on purpose? What on earth did he want to do there?
After just one meeting, the three of them started to look down upon them. It stands to reason that if an old man asked for something and could pay them enough to make their eyes shine, they would not mind accompanying their employer. The key point is this
People are too young, and being young means being impetuous, and it seems that there will be inevitable troubles along the way.
In fact, as employees, almost everyone does not want too much trouble. As long as they can complete the task and avoid the dangers, they will be relaxed. But obviously, a young employer means the right thing.
It’s the word trouble.
"That's right." Feng Jueyu saw the contempt in the eyes of the three people, but he didn't care, and straightforwardly stated the purpose of this mission: "My surname is Feng. I invited you here this time because I want you to accompany me."
I am going to Nakano Castle to look for a kind of Sophora japonica tree. To be honest, I know nothing about Nakano Castle except that Sophora japonica grows there, so I will bother you three during this trip to Nakano Castle.
Protect Zhou Quan and find the Sophora japonica tree. As for the reward, the three of you can mention it."
The three of them looked at each other and did not agree immediately. After all, traveling through the wild forest of beasts is no joke. With the cultivation of the three of them in the Tianwu realm, they need to be cautious at all times, not to mention carrying a burden. However, the matter can be viewed from two sides, like
It is usually difficult for Tianwu realm masters like them who have registered in the martial arts hall to receive any tasks. After all, their skills are too high, and their people must pay an extremely generous commission no matter what they do. Otherwise, they have to pay an extremely generous commission.
It doesn't reflect their status. Since the commission is huge, the matter must be no small matter.
Some are murderers, and the ones they kill are masters, which are highly dangerous; some help protect their homes and resist enemies, and can easily become enemies with large aristocratic families or other masters, which is equally unsafe; like Feng Jueyu, all he wants is to find a tree and
Escorts are really rare. Although they have to pass through the dangerous forest of beasts, for famous experts like them, as long as they are careful, the risk factor is still relatively small.
However, this burden in front of them is a trouble. The three of them looked at each other, and the middle-aged man spoke: "We, husband and wife, each have 1 million taels of gold. As for Brother Luo..."
"One million taels is fine." The man in black robe agreed.
One million taels of gold is indeed not expensive. Usually when you reach the realm of Tianwu, the necessities for warriors to practice are all frighteningly expensive, such as soft armor and the spiritual objects needed to condense the air armor are priceless, and the Zhu family also sells some on a regular basis.
Beast elements, cubs of ferocious beasts... Generally speaking, everything requires money, and one mouthful can cost ten thousand taels of gold. Compared with ordinary people, the cost of cultivating a warrior is vastly different. The higher the strength, the higher the cost.
The warrior, the higher the price.
For example, Zhu Yeqing said that the Jing family's Blood Thorn Hall even counts heads. Killing a warrior requires a reward based on strength. Killing a high-level Tianwu realm master generally costs more than 5 million taels of gold, which is more than a piece of white gold.
The grand treasure of the second grade Yan is even more expensive. Therefore, the asking price of three middle-aged men is really not high.
Even if 1 million taels of gold is not expensive, Feng Jueyu can't afford so much money. He has a lot of banknotes in his hands, which are the banknotes he brought from Tiannan. He has squandered almost all of them these days. It is 3 million taels for three people.
Where can I get so much money?
But Feng Jueyu is not worried, he doesn't have Fatty Ding, does he? I believe that as long as he gets the Xilong Ye and refines the Outbound Yuan Dan, Fatty will be happy to fund it for him.
So Feng Jueyu agreed and paid a down payment of 300,000 taels of gold per person to reassure the three of them before making a plan to travel to Nakano Ancient City the next day.
After all, they have to travel through the wild forest of hundreds of beasts, so several people need to make more preparations. During this process, Feng Jueyu borrowed a furnace cauldron from Wang Jiutong and placed it in the space orb for use in making elixirs when he was depressed on the road.
, and then prepared some dry food, dried meat, dried meat, etc., and put them all in the space orb.
Speaking of which, the space of the Space Orb is indeed not small. It can not only accommodate a scroll, but also many things. Feng Jueyu once tried it, and it was about the same space as a study room, that is, a
small warehouse...
In addition, Feng Jueyu also inquired about the identities of the three hired bodyguards. The man in black robes was called Luo Di. He was very good at leg skills and extremely fast. He was originally an assassin; the other couple
The man's name is He Hongshan and the woman's name is Dou Qing. The three of them are all high-level Tianwu masters, on par with Yi Bingyan. In fact, Feng Jueyu still feels that he has taken advantage of him. The high-level Tianwu realm is nothing like the Shenwu realm.
There's such a big difference, only two levels difference. As long as he doesn't encounter too tough opponents, Feng Jueyu doesn't need to worry about anything along the way.
So the whole night was silent, and early the next morning, Feng Jueyu took the space orb and went into battle lightly, riding a bay-red horse from the west gate of Zhongtian City and headed straight to the outskirts of the Wild Beast Forest.
The route for this trip was set by He Hongshan. Finally, after asking Feng Jueyu, he found out that the three of them often went to the Beast Wild Forest to practice, so they were also familiar with the route of the Beast Wild Forest, and had traveled from Zhongtian City to Zhongye City before.
There are indeed a few old mountain roads, but most of them have been occupied by ferocious beasts. Only one is relatively safe, but it still has to pass through a place called Thorny Valley.
From Zhongtian City to the Thorny Valley, you have to pass through a barren mountain. After climbing over the mountain, cross a small river, and then climb two more mountains, you are almost there. This is the shortest way. If you are lucky and do not encounter ferocious beasts, it will take five days.
You can reach your destination with just a little effort.
Feng Jueyu didn't have any objections to the route arranged by He Hongshan. After all, he was not familiar with the Valley of Thorns, and it was safer to listen to experienced people. So the next morning, a group of four people set out from Zhongtian City and left Xicheng.
Through the gate, we passed through a wasteland and walked through terraced fields before arriving at the outskirts of the Thorny Valley. It was not until noon that we entered the Thorny Valley.
