"This kid doesn't look like a good person at first glance. Senior sister, don't be fooled." Zhangwu said hurriedly when he saw that the woman was very interested in Long Chen.
"Ah! Do you know how to read?" Long Chen looked at Zhangwu in surprise.
"Pfft"
Not only did the woman couldn't help laughing, but even the two girls in the team couldn't help covering their lips and snickering.
"You... you... don't look like a good person. You're a pretty boy. Who can you scare?" Zhang Wu stammered and said angrily.
In fact, Long Chen had been fighting for days. His body was covered in blood and his face was dusty. Except for his pair of eyes that were as bright as stars, his face could no longer be seen clearly.
Although only two eyes were exposed, he still gave people a handsome and extraordinary demeanor, which made Zhangwu feel wary.
Most of the crowd were men. The woman in the leader had the highest level of cultivation and was as beautiful as a flower. They all imagined the woman as the lover of their dreams. How could a stranger get involved?
Long Chen saw through this guy's mind at once. He saw so many men looking at him with burning eyes. Why didn't he understand what was going on? He couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you laughing? You must be feeling guilty to laugh. You want to take the opportunity to think of how to make up lies." Zhang Wu couldn't help but said angrily when he saw Long Chen smiling but not saying anything.
Long Che couldn't help but feel happy. He extended his thumb to Zhangwu and said, "You are really tall. Your Excellency has a keen eye. You can even grasp my inner movements perfectly. You are really an expert."
"Hehe, of course, kid, it's unlucky for you to meet me. Anyone in the world who can deceive me into talking about me, Zhangwu, hasn't even been born yet." Hearing Long Chen's praise, Zhangwu couldn't stand it anymore and started to feel a little arrogant.
Wow, this guy couldn't hear the underlying meaning of Long Chen's words.
Others looked at Zhang Wu with strange expressions. A few wanted to say something, but in the end they said nothing. They looked at the sky and acted like, "I am not familiar with this person."
"Come on, Zhangwu, please don't embarrass yourself. Master, do you need any help?" the woman said to Long Chen.
The woman was wary of Long Chen at first, but within a few words, she felt the unique temperament of Long Chen.
It was obvious that his breath was weak, and he must have been seriously injured, but his conversation was natural and there was no sense of vigilance. Especially in his eyes, there was a terrifying calmness.
You know, people like them can easily kill Long Chen, but Long Chen doesn't have any fear or anxiety, and he actually talks and laughs. This kind of magnanimity is not what ordinary people should have.
So the woman concluded that Long Chen must have an extraordinary background, so she became curious and wanted to help Long Chen, which was considered a good relationship.
"I really need help. I'm lost. I want to know how far is the nearest city from here and which direction I should go. If I can tell you, I will be very grateful," Long Chen said with a fist in his hand.
"Hey, are you mistaken? You didn't ask about the reputation of our Mu Xue mercenary group. Are we the kind of people who show kindness and expect repayment? Do you think it's great to have a few bad guys?" Long Chen just finished speaking.
, Zhangwu couldn't help roaring.
At the same time, Long Chen discovered that many people's faces could not help but darken, as if Long Chen's last words had hurt their self-esteem.
"I think you have misunderstood. Although we are mercenaries, we have our own pride. Your words make us a little embarrassed," the woman said coldly.
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake. The key is that I don't have this expert's vision and I don't know how to tell faces. Don't blame me," Long Chen said with a laugh.
Long Chen really didn't expect that there would be such an upright group of people in the cunning and cunning cultivation world. He was indeed mistaken.
When Long Chen said this, everyone looked much better. The woman at the head smiled slightly and said: "Introduce yourself, Mu Xue."
After speaking, the woman actually extended her delicate hand, which made Long Chen a little surprised. The etiquette of shaking hands seems to be limited to men.
However, someone had already extended his hand, and Long Chen was embarrassed to be coy, so he shook Mu Xue's hand very generously.
Long Chen touched me very well, just touching me lightly, and only lightly holding the front part of his fingers. This is the etiquette of aristocratic shaking hands with women.
It's not that Long Chen wants to show how noble he is, because if he holds all the other people's beautiful hands in his hand, he can take advantage of it.
"Long Chen" Long Chen hesitated for a moment, and finally reported his real name.
"Long Chen? Why does this name sound familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere." Mu Xue's beautiful eyes lit up slightly and she frowned.
"Maybe my name is too common. There may be many people with the same name as me," Long Chen said with a smile.
"That's true. Most practitioners have very impressive names. They wish they could shock people to death just by their names," Mu Xue said with a smile.
After a few words, Long Chen felt that although Mu Xue was a woman, she had the air of a general. There was no pretense in her conversation, which made people feel comfortable. No wonder she became a boss-level figure.
I just heard them say that they call themselves the Muxue Mercenary Group, so it seems that this mercenary group is named after this woman.
"Maybe it's my mother who wants me to become an ordinary person," Long Chen said with a faint smile, but a hint of sadness flashed deep in his eyes.
I remembered the two lines of words on the jade pendant: The dragon roars in the nine heavens, looking down upon the mortal world. Peace and joy, forever.
The first line is full of domineering and arrogant, while the next line is full of tenderness and pampering, which respectively represent his parents' expectations for him.
Thinking that not long after he was born, his spiritual roots, spiritual blood, and spiritual bones were stolen, and he was taken out half alive. I don't know how sad his parents were after losing him.
Thinking of this, Long Chen's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Now that so many years have passed, he still doesn't know if his biological parents are still there.
"Hehe, the name Long Chen is indeed too common. Look at me, Zhangwu, showing off my martial arts, how domineering I am?"
Zhangwu's voice brought Long Chen's thoughts back to reality. Seeing Zhangwu holding his head high, it was as if he had defeated Long Chen.
"Hurry up and get it, I think your name is still lacking in popularity. If you change Wu to wolf, it will be more domineering," another mercenary said.
"Zhang Lang? You don't think you are so domineering?" Zhang Wu muttered a few words in a low voice. Suddenly he realized that the man was making fun of him and immediately rushed towards him.
"Cockroaches are indeed very domineering, haha." The man laughed and hurriedly ducked into the crowd, not following Zhang Wu.
"Stop, how can you behave like this? Aren't you afraid of being laughed out of your teeth?" Mu Xue's face darkened and she shouted coldly.
Zhangwu and the man immediately looked solemn and stopped talking. They were still in awe of Mu Xue.
"I'm sorry for making Brother Long laugh," Mu Xue said with some embarrassment.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "What's wrong with Miss Mu Xue? You all are gentlemen. You can say whatever you want without restraint. This is a real man."
Zhangwu, who had always been wary of Long Chen, was surprised when he saw Long Chen talking to them. He felt that Long Chen, a pretty boy, seemed to like him a lot.
"Don't stand around stupidly. It's getting late. Hurry up and set up the tent. Today is a rare relaxing day. Let's all take a good rest," Mu Xue shouted to everyone.
Only then did everyone begin to take out tents and wooden stakes from the space rings, and began to work.
"Brother Long, this is a wild land with hundreds of thousands of miles around and no human habitation. Moreover, even if I tell you the direction, you will easily lose your way if there are mountains and rivers ahead blocking the way.
Why don't you stay with us for now, and when we complete the mission, we will take you to Qingzhou City, and it will be much more convenient for you to leave then," Mu Xue said.
"Qingzhou? This is the boundary of Qingzhou?" Long Chen was surprised.
"Yes, this is still part of the Qingzhou boundary. If you run southwest for more than ten days, you will reach the Suzhou boundary," Mu Xue said.
Damn it, this bastard Yin Wushang can probably chase me. He chased me from Suzhou to Qingzhou, all across the state.
"Well, can I ask, what mission do you want to do? Are there any taboos? If so, I'd better wait for you here to avoid any inconvenience," Long Chen said.
"There is nothing taboo. The reason we are here this time is because we received a mission from the mercenary union. Someone wants to purchase a Warcraft crystal core at a high price, and it must be fresh. We are here this time to attack
Kill an innate-level monster," Mu Xue said.
"Xiantian realm?" Long Chen couldn't help being surprised.
"It is indeed the Xiantian realm, but it is only in the early stage of Xiantian. It just so happens that we came here a year ago and found a monster in the early stage of Xiantian. At that time, we were not strong enough and did not touch it.
This time, someone in the mercenary union actually paid a very high price to purchase this kind of Warcraft crystal core, and our strength has been greatly improved, so we plan to kill that Warcraft this time." Mu Xuexiao
road.
Long Chen suddenly realized that no wonder he had seen these traces on the lake in the distance before. It seemed that they were left by people. They had come here to camp before.
"This small lake area is a safe zone, and it happens to be on the edge of the sphere of influence of the two innate realm monsters.
So other monsters, smelling the pressure of monsters, don't dare to stay here at all. This is the best place to camp, and we also need to take a rest here to recharge our batteries and prepare to hunt monsters." Mu Xue explained.
.
"Could it be that the monster you want to kill is one of the two monsters?" Long Chen asked.
"Yes, an innate-level monster called a subterranean spider may be in a tough battle this time," Mu Xue said with some worry.
"The crystal core of the underground spider has a rare dark attribute. It is the main medicine for refining the Nine-turn Dao Heart Pill. It does require fresh crystal nuclei. After the body dies, the crystal core will lose its activity and become waste after three months.
, it seems that your boss wants to refine elixirs," Long Chen murmured.
"Do you know how to make alchemy?" Mu Xue looked at Long Chen in surprise.
"I understand a little bit," Long Chen said with a smile: "However, you people may be in great danger when dealing with underground spiders."
"I know it too, but our mercenary group owes someone a huge favor. They urgently need the crystal core of the underground spider. We plan to return this favor." Mu Xue said with a solemn face.
"Can I ask whose favor it is? Is it worth your efforts?" Long Chen said curiously.
"This crystal core is needed by Mo Nian, the young master of the Mo clan, so we must get it," Mu Xue sighed.
