Jia Zhengjin left the orphanage, rode the Shadow Leopard out of Tongshan City, returned along the road, and headed towards the base.
Halfway through, I saw the red-haired girl from before and the team of female warriors who looked a little embarrassed after being bandaged.
Seeing him coming towards him, the red-haired girl's eyes lit up and she wanted to gallop forward.
However, the female warrior captain next to her stopped her on horseback and shook her head.
The red-haired girl seemed to remember something, and tried hard to suppress her anger and try her best to smile. After the female warrior captain nodded, she rode up to Jia Zhengjin.
Jia Zhengjin looked at the other party and could see that the red-haired girl was not smiling sincerely, so she looked a little awkward.
He didn't say anything and just watched calmly.
"Cohen... is the leader, right?" The red-haired girl bowed slightly on the horse and nodded, treated him like a lady, and said as softly as possible, "I was really rude just now, please forgive me!
"
Oh? With such a temper, she can actually let down her posture! Jia Zhengjin thought it was interesting and waited with a smile to see what she was going to do.
Jia Zhengjin's smile was very natural and did not need to be acted. So facing his smile, the red-haired girl relaxed her tense mood a little and tried to maintain a soft tone of voice: "I believe that the captain will not care about me."
Jia Zhengjin still said nothing and looked at her unscrupulously. In fact, this was very rude. He was deliberately testing the red-haired girl to see if she could hold back her temper.
Sure enough, facing the other party's attitude, the red-haired girl almost exploded, and she could clearly feel the veins on her forehead stretching.
However, he still gritted his teeth and held back, still speaking in a soft voice: "Please allow me to introduce myself. I am the daughter of the lord of Coast City. My name is Audra Lena Eugene. I am a fourth-level warrior and a third-level warrior."
Fire magician! You can call me Lena."
"Oh?" Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised, "Double cultivation of magic and martial arts is rare!"
"Yes, I have had such a physique since I was a child." The red-haired girl said, "The person next to me is Panis, the personal guard assigned to me by my father! The others are my female guards."
"Panis? Afraid of your death?" Jia Zhengjin laughed loudly, "Your father is really funny, but this guard captain is quite professional!"
"You!!" The red-haired girl became angry again and was about to get angry, but Panis reached out to stop her and tried her best to calm her down.
She took a few deep breaths, finally calmed down her anger, and forced a smile on her face: "Captain Cohen, actually I have something to discuss with you!"
"You want a necklace, right? Didn't I tell you, I'll take out the 50 gold coins and sell it to you right away!" Jia Zhengjin shrugged and said, "If not, forget it! It's getting late, I'm still going back!"
"You...!" The red-haired girl was so angry that if Panis hadn't tried her best to persuade her to be patient, she would have gone up to Jia Zhengjin to fight her. Regardless of whether he could beat him or not, the other party was too irritating.
!
Jia Zhengjin also has a bad taste. Seeing that she has such a bad temper and has to endure it, she always wants to tease her a few times to see if this gunpowder magazine will explode.
It is said that the red-haired girl is much more tolerant than before. She doesn't know what happened in such a short period of time. Or maybe Panis, the captain of the guard next to her, said something to her.
She quickly smiled again and said as softly as possible: "Captain Cohen, you are the founder of the only adventure group in the surrounding cities, and you are very respectable! Whether it is me or my father, I hope to make friends with you.
I am a friend. We had some misunderstandings before, and I hope we can clear them up here. What do you think?"
"What misunderstanding do we have?" Jia Zhengjin shrugged, "Isn't it just because of this red stone necklace? It's very simple! Just bring 50 gold coins, there is no need to say that these are available."
I endure! I endure... The red-haired girl felt that now was the time she had endured the most in her life. She finally calmed down and looked at Jia Zhengjin and said softly, "That's it, Captain Cohen. This string of red
The stone necklace is extremely precious to me! It is a relic left by my mother. I have always carried it close to my body since I was a child and rarely take it off. This time I came to Wuzhu City and was relaxed for a while. When I went to a jewelry store, I bought it to try it on.
I was looking for a friend's necklace to see if it would fit, but it was stolen by that nasty thief. I searched almost the entire city for several days, and finally found out about the existence of the black market, and also learned that he often sells stolen goods in this area.
I finally waited until he came out and wanted to capture him quickly and take back my mother's belongings. Who would have thought that he would be bought by you in the middle, and that's what happened next. I also admit that I was impulsive and may have offended you. After all, it is my mother.
The only relic left to me, if it is lost, I will never be able to rest at ease in this life! I know that it is not your fault that I bought the necklace. The black market exists with the tacit consent of the Lord of Wuzhu City. The buyer should not be held responsible for any transactions in it.
But I really must get back my mother's relics, but I really don't have as much as 50 gold coins. I hope you can understand and give me a suitable price."
This is actually her mother's relic?
Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised. No wonder the other party was in such a hurry. It could be seen from her eyes that there was no deception. After all, she had thousands of years of experience and had experienced the Dark Dragon incident. He was very sensitive to lies and judged accurately.
If this is the case, it would be too much not to return it to her. He likes to play and sometimes likes to tease people, but in terms of the concept of right and wrong, he mostly has a favorable impression of such filial children. After all, he has raised countless offspring and has a deep understanding of it.
...
Just returning it to the other party like this felt too simple, and for those who didn’t know it, I thought I was afraid of the identity of the other city lord’s daughter. After thinking about it carefully, I said to her: “Since it is your mother’s relic, then I will give you a chance.
!”
The red-haired girl was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked, "What chance?"
"Tomorrow morning, you wait at the door of the Adventurer's Guild!" Jia Zhengjin said, "The requirement is that we are not allowed to bring any guards. Our team is going on a mission. You must stay with me and obey my orders for the whole day.
.This is a test. As long as you can pass it and truly obey completely without talking back or resisting, I will return the red stone necklace to you without taking any money!"
"No!!" Panis's face changed drastically, "You drove us away. Do you think you should obey the order given to the young lady?"
"What kind of order?" The red-haired girl looked confused.
"Miss, you don't need to know!" Panis quickly shook her head and said.
Jia Zhengjin shrugged his shoulders: "I'm thinking too much! I'm not so hungry that I can't choose what to eat."
"Although I don't understand what you are talking about, I just need to obey your orders completely tomorrow, right?" the red-haired girl said, "Even if you deliberately make things difficult, I will definitely pass! But you can't lie to me, you must take the necklace
Come back!"
"Miss!!" Panis was extremely anxious, "No, if we are not around, what if..."
"Panis, this is the best way for me to get back my mother's relics!" the girl in red said to her, "That's it, when will the Adventurer's Guild gate be opened tomorrow?"
