The leader hesitated, but Shen Qing's confident look gave him great confidence, making him feel that this group of people could really help his tribe solve this long-standing problem.
But at the same time, this strong self-confidence made him feel uneasy.
Is it really worth believing?
If their troops are really that strong, won't they turn around and continue to invade us after they deal with the Nangong family?
The leader thought this way, and when he looked at Shen Qing, worry appeared in his eyes again.
Seeing the look on the leader's face, Shen Qing could guess what he was thinking. Indeed, no matter who it was, everyone would have to worry about this. After all, if they allowed themselves to recover quietly here, after they recovered from their injuries, what would happen to them?
How do you know it won’t be a problem caused by raising tigers?
"Let's do this, Shu Lin. You tell the leader and ask him to randomly pick someone to be a hostage, and then let me go first. I'll go to Nangong's house to see what's going on."
Shu Lin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Shen Qing would say such selfish words.
This is because he did not think carefully. In fact, it is the safest to stay with the natives as hostages, because as long as Shen Qing does not do anything to cross the river and demolish the bridge, these kind-hearted natives will definitely not harm the hostages.
On the contrary, it was Shen Qing. He was still injured. If he went to Nangong's house alone, it would be like going deep into the tiger's den.
Unless, he didn't go there with the intention of solving the Nangong family...
Although he had doubts, Shu Lin still conveyed Shen Qing's intention to the indigenous leader. After all, it had nothing to do with him in the first place. To put it bluntly, he was just an unlucky guy.
"He means that he can deal with the Nangong family now?"
The indigenous leader frowned and said to Shu Lin, with a very suspicious look on his face.
Shu Lin translated, and Shen Qing just smiled and said, "I don't dare to say the solution, but at least go and explore the situation first. But please rest assured, leader, if Shu Lin's description is true, then our strength must be higher than
It won't be difficult to deal with the other side."
Shu Lin translated again, but the leader was still hesitant after hearing this. Finally, Shu Lin told Shen Qing that he needed to think about it, and then asked someone to take the two of them back to the prison.
After returning to the stone prison, everyone came forward to inquire about the results. Shen Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head, "These indigenous people have been persecuted so deeply that they have completely lost trust in us outsiders, but let's wait and see.
The leader seemed a little moved and said he wanted to think about it."
On the side, Shu Lin seemed hesitant and wanted to say something but didn't.
The waiting process is naturally extremely boring, and the recovery of strength does not happen overnight, and in the case of internal injuries, the number of days that can be operated every day is not optimistic. If you forcefully increase the dosage, not only will you not be able to recover better,
, but it can easily lead to continued deterioration.
At this time, the role of elixirs was highlighted. Unfortunately, who would have thought that Shen Liu's battle would be so fierce and he would not have so many elixirs on his body.
Regarding this, Shen Qing thought about it. However, he had hired the Fei Lang Tuan and Bai Yi Hui at once for all his Yuan Stones, and he did not have enough money to purchase a large amount of healing elixirs.
"Shen Qing, eat this."
It was late at night and everyone had fallen asleep. Only Xiao Qian, Baifeng, Tang Zhong and Shen Qing sat quietly.
The four of them are the backbone of everyone here, and everyone is counting on them, so how can they sleep?
"This is..."
Shen Qing looked shocked. He didn't expect that Xiao Qian actually took out a Star Gathering Pill!
"You can eat it if you are told to. This kind of food is not very effective for monks like me and Bai Feng, who are in the Nether Realm. On the contrary, for you, who are in the Tianguang Realm, the effect is very outstanding."
Xiao Qian pushed back again, but Shen Qing insisted on refusing. He knew that what Xiao Qian just said was just to appease him. The Tianxing Spirit Gathering Pill is an essential pill for the Tianguang Realm to attack the Tongyou Realm. It can alleviate the impact of realm breakthrough. And if this thing is used for healing, although it is a waste of resources, the effect must be quite good!
Moreover, it’s not like Xiang Qian told him that he didn’t know Tongyou Realm!
As if he saw what he was thinking, Xiao Qian smiled and said, "Take it, what we have to do now is to make the best use of everything, not whether it is cost-effective or not. Indeed, whether it is me or Bai Feng, this pill Swallowing it can have a very good effect on healing, but if I give this thing to you, I think you can directly recover to the point of being inseparable. By then, we will help the natives solve the Nangong family, or maybe If we rush out directly, we can at least get some protection first, right?"
Xiao Qian looked sincere, and Bai Feng on the side also nodded. It was obvious that they wanted to get the best value for money from this vital elixir.
Furthermore, it may be that as special agents who hire casual cultivators, they don’t have much favorable impressions of the natives, and they don’t think it is safe to stay here for a long time. After all, they have such strength but do not want to be attached to some. The reason for the family's power is that they don't want their fate to be in the hands of others.
And now, being in the prison of these aliens who can't even speak, they will naturally feel a kind of anxiety. After all, they don't understand this group of natives. God knows whether these natives will suddenly become angry and kill them. All were put to death.
In contrast, Shen Qing was not too worried about this. After all, if the natives wanted to kill them, they could have done it long ago, so why wait so long.
"Brother Xiao Qian, you and Brother Bai Feng should study this and see who takes it. I know all my own injuries and it cannot be solved by pills."
Shen Qing postponed it again and again. Firstly, this battle had caused heavy damage to the two large mercenary casual cultivators, which made him feel quite guilty. Secondly, in addition to Yuandao, he at least had the trump card of spiritual refining, so he believed that In contrast, he felt that Xiao Qian and Baifeng should be the first to regain their strength.
However, he said that his injury could not be solved by pills, but it was purely to appease the two of them.
Seeing Shen Qing's insistence, Xiao Qian had no choice but to take the elixir back. However, the look he looked at Shen Qing was even more approving.
To be honest, we haven't been in contact with each other for a long time, and at this juncture, no normal person would want to protect his own life first, but Shen Qing actually insisted on not wanting his pill, which really made him admire him. .
At such a young age, they have a deep understanding of how to behave in the world. If they thought Shen Qing was a malleable person before, now they feel that Shen Qing is really someone they can have a close relationship with.
"That's fine, but I really didn't lie when I said it. There is only one Heavenly Star Gathering Pill, and it is indeed not very effective for my injuries."
Xiao Qian said seriously that the battle with Liu Changfeng could be said to be the most brutal battle since his debut. It was a surprise that they could work together to kill Liu Hengfeng. One can imagine how serious the injuries would be. serious.
"Brother Bai, why don't you use this elixir first?" Xiao Qian said politely.
Bai Feng quickly waved his hand and joked, "Brother Xiao, you should use it yourself. After all, this thing is worth hundreds of thousands of yuan stones."
It's no wonder that he has been reluctant to use it. Hundreds of thousands of Yuan stones are only about the size of a fingernail, and they are normally used to stabilize the realm during breakthroughs. Forcibly using them as healing elixirs is indeed a waste of resources.
If Xiao Qian didn't take it seriously, how could he have decided to give it to Shen Qing after so long.
Xiao Qian himself just said a polite word. After all, if Shen Qing doesn't use it, then the effect will be the same whether he or Bai Feng uses it, so there is no reason to "sacrifice oneself for others".
"Brother Xiao Qian, how long will it take for you to recover from your injuries after taking this elixir?"
Xiao Qian frowned and thought for a moment, "In terms of recovery, it will take about a month. In terms of temporary combat effectiveness, I think it should be able to help me return to the ninth level of Tianguang."
Shen Qing nodded. In other words, they now at least have the combat power of a ninth-level Tianguang. I can't say that there is no problem in self-protection, but at least they have a little confidence in facing any sudden situation.
"That's it. Let's wait for the answer from the indigenous leader. Anyway, if he agrees, then you can heal your wounds here. I'll go to Nangong's house to find out."
"Otherwise I'll go." Bai Feng said a little worried.
"No, you and Brother Xiao Qian are both strong in the Nether Realm. Even if you are seriously injured now, the foundation is there after all. They can see it at a glance. And Shu Lin also said that the Nangong family is the strongest talent. It's a realm of tranquility, and there's only one of it, so if you go there, it's easy for them to worry about overshadowing the guests and usurping the host, and they will never trust you to gain their influence."
"Then if you go, the Nangong family won't be suspicious?" Bai Feng continued to ask.
Shen Qing smiled and glanced at Bai Feng, "Brother Bai Feng, what I said may sound a bit pretentious, but it is the truth. Do you think that if someone is suddenly seriously injured, but extremely talented, and at the same time recovers from the injury? If someone who does not affect your status wants to join your mercenary group, will you refuse? And conversely, will you agree?"
Xiao Qian and Baifeng looked at each other and had to say that this was really the case. If they went, the head of the Nangong family would not dare to take them in at will, because whoever it was would have to consider recruiting someone who could at least be on an equal footing with him. As for people, is this an act of luring a wolf into the house?
"That's it, but you must be careful. From Shu Lin's description, this Nangong family is not a kind person."
Shen Qing smiled and waved his hand, "Then I'm not afraid. What I'm afraid of is that the indigenous leader won't agree..."
"So what if we don't agree, sooner or later we will recover from our injuries and then fight out!" Bai Feng said ruthlessly.
"No, no, no, we can't kill them either emotionally or rationally, because if they don't kill us, first of all, it's an act of benevolence. Why didn't they just kill us all from the beginning? The reason is very simple, because they want to be sure. Are we intruders? If we are, they will kill us. If not, facts have proven that although we are in trouble, we have water and food every day without suffering any torture, so what they did is considered right. We are grateful."
"Then... what's next?" Tang Zhong listened for a long time and finally said it himself, because he vaguely noticed that Shen Qing seemed to have other ideas about the indigenous people...
