No matter what happens to other people in the Mercenary City, the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group is in full swing now.
One is busy opening the shop in the abyss.
Second, workers are needed for spinning and weaving, and they must be recruited.
I originally thought that after the mercenary groups stopped providing malt, their maltose production would be greatly affected, and the sugar workers would have to switch to weaving.
But now Zhao Kuo quickly found a new mercenary group to provide malt, so the original sugar workers did not need to change jobs, and the spinning and weaving workers had to be recruited.
The recruitment of workers was left to Capa, and the original rules were followed.
Nowadays, the treatment of workers in the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group has spread, and it is not difficult to recruit people. For civilians, the conflicts with the people and ghosts of the Abyss are not the most important. How to survive is what they want, and resist There are still fundamental differences between the people of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group.
Zhao Kuo and his people were getting the wooden frames, tables and stools needed for the new shop.
Shen Yan suddenly felt as if he had returned to the relaxed state before. Even after experiencing this incident, he clearly felt that there was a very hidden force peering at them in the dark and targeting them.
Shen Yan walked into the warehouse and knocked on the money box.
"Creak", the money box opened a gap, and the pouty mouth stuck out from the inside.
It must have come to feed him.
The corners of Shen Yan's mouth twitched several times. Recently, Dudu was hiding in his money box and couldn't be beaten to death.
Shen Yan tried several times to drag him out by force. This little guy could hold the money box tightly and scream so pitifully that it made everyone sad and tearful.
Although he obviously liked waiting for money boxes in the past, it was not like now. He only showed his mouth when eating. In the past, he liked to run around and play when he had free time.
Shen Yan rubbed his sore forehead. This was his son. He probably understood why parents with problem children sometimes collapsed instantly and became irritable.
Dudu opened his mouth for a long time, but saw that no food came in.
He yelled "Ouch, Ouch, Ouch" a few times, and opened his mouth even wider.
Shen Yan thought to himself, how many days have you been here?
Said: "Your other father is back and you don't even come out to see him?"
Dudu didn't even hold himself steady, the money box pinched his forehead, his eyes were full of resentment, that's your dad, you want to be someone else's son so much, go and call him dad.
Shen Yan: "When your father came back this time, all the money he earned was brought back in boxes."
"brush!"
The lid of the closed money box finally opened, and Dudu climbed out from a pile of copper doves, looking at Shen Yan with golden eyes.
Need someone to lift the money box?
Shen Yan: "..."
What is really happening is that birds die for food and people die for wealth.
Shen Yan grabbed Dudu and put it on his shoulder before walking outside.
Dudu stood on Shen Yan's shoulder, his little feet bouncing, money, treasures, etc...
Whoever has money is his father.
When Dudu stood on Shen Yan's shoulder, the undetectable black elements in Shen Yan's body began to be pulled out and sucked towards Dudu.
Shen Yan walked out of the warehouse, and the sunlight outside shone on him.
Yan was stunned for a moment. ()

It's my mood. In the past, even if I encountered difficulties, I would not be depressed. I would feel very happy about every little thing. I like to empathize with happy things.
But these days, everything seems to be fine, but even when I am the happiest, my mood is always difficult to lift, as if it is cast under a shadow. I am always suspicious of everything, start to hesitate, start to feel unsure, and start to lose. For the sake of passion and justice, he is afraid of hands and feet.
It's quite complicated to say, but it's like a different state of mind.
But now it's better, even a trace of sunshine can make Shen Yan feel the warmth in it.
The smile on his face seemed to have the same infectious power as before.
Shen Yan walked towards Zhao Kuo, Dudu jumped with excitement at Zhao Kuo, where is the money? Where did you move to?
Zhao Kuo's resolute face actually had a hint of warmth. Look, he just went out not long ago, and his son missed him so much.
Shen Yan asked: "When are we going to find the curse master to trace the clues?"
Although the matter is over, it is impossible for the people behind the scenes to escape completely.
Anyone who is plotted against someone will probably not treat it as nothing happened.
Shen Yan once saw a law called the law of six people, which means that any relationship between two people can be connected through six other people.
Just like now, Shen Yan doesn't know who the people behind the scenes are. They are counted as two strangers, but the communication between him and this stranger must be between six people. Through these six people, he can find The existence of people behind the scenes.
But now, Shen Yan has a relationship with the curser, so this curser is considered one of the six.
Although the city of mercenaries is large, it cannot escape the law of six.
Zhao Kuo said: "Wait a few more days until he relaxes his vigilance."
Shen Yan understands what Zhao Kuo means. A person who is too vigilant will subconsciously erase his contact with the people behind the scenes, and the people behind the scenes will also observe Shen Yan and the others' actions. If Shen Yan and the others target that person Curse Master, the other party may take the first step because they don't know who is behind the scenes, so they don't know how far the other party can achieve it.
Only when the other party has given up their vigilance, will they be surprised again.
Shen Yan asked some more questions about the Curse Master.
Zhao Kuo replied: "The Curse Master is a very special profession. Some special curse rituals are very hidden, and are spread into people's souls bit by bit through words or eyes."
"If the power of the curse is very similar to the soul, it will be extremely difficult to identify its existence, because the human soul will be more or less infected by the surrounding environment, and the curse will be disguised and hidden in this way. It will not be revealed until the moment it breaks out. Feel its presence.”
Shen Yan thought to himself, no wonder he didn't notice anything unusual until he was at the security pavilion when the curse broke out.
Zhao Kuo: "These weak curses similar to those of the soul are difficult to completely remove from the soul."
Shen Yan was also very confused. He seemed to be unable to feel the shadow in his soul, or was it that his super inspiration could not sense the curse power remaining in his body?
No, he has to go to the ancestral hall to burn incense and ask for blessings from his ancestors.
When trouble comes, burn incense more often.
() That’s right.
Shen Yan walked towards the ancestral hall.
result,
Dudu struggled, jumped off his shoulders, and threw himself at Zhao Kuo with open arms.
Shen Yan: "?"
Didn't Dudu particularly dislike being near Zhao Kuo before? You always show your teeth and claws, why are you suddenly so enthusiastic today?
Could it be that after being gone for a few days, I suddenly missed you?
Dudu wiped away tears and threw himself at Zhao Kuo, otherwise, Shen Yan would definitely catch him in the cellar.
Shen Yan asked Zhao Kuo to take Dudu away and went into the cellar.
In the cellar, Zhuzi and others were holding handkerchiefs, setting up wooden ladders, and wiping the dust on the memorial tablets.
Shen Yan said that there should be no dust on these boards called "tablets" and they must be wiped every once in a while.
Shen Yan smiled, these kids were too much of a director, but when he thought of Dudu, who was so skinny that he couldn't describe it, Shen Yan's smile became somewhat stiff.
He deeply understood why parents always like to talk about other people's children.
This is a kind of suppressive education, which is not advisable, but Shen Yan really understands the parents' feelings.
I burned the incense respectfully.
I repeated a few words in my mind, wishing Dudu to be more obedient and stop doing some weird things that are incomprehensible.
May other children be happy every day.
Protect yourself from all evil.
Several children looked at Shen Yan in confusion. What was Shen Yan doing?
With your hands clasped together and your eyes closed, you look particularly pious?
When Shen Yan opened his eyes, several children were surrounding him, tilting their necks and looking at him in confusion: "Shen Yan, what are you doing?"
Shen Yan smiled, thought for a while, and said, "Welcome to our ancestors."
Sunzi waited and was still confused: "Ancestor? Like my father or grandfather? But we have never paid homage to him before."
Shen Yan said: "Ancestors, they are even longer and more ancient than these."
Shen Yan's habit of telling stories happened again. In other words, almost all historians in the liberal arts have this problem.
When Shen Yan went to school for history and archeology, there is a little story. He took a long-distance train once when he was a child, and there happened to be a history professor sitting nearby on the train.
Along the way, the professor enthusiastically explained to the people around him the great rivers and mountains that could be seen outside and their history.
It was also at that moment that Shen Yan understood the meaning of poetry and calligraphy, and understood that behind those seemingly ordinary bricks and tiles, there were so many fascinating and fascinating stories hidden behind them.
Yes, with his heart relaxed and fascinated, Shen Yan had his first ideal since then, to be a historical scholar like that professor.
Perhaps one day, like that historian, he can eloquently tell the magnificent stories of China to tourists and strangers on the road.
This is also how Shen Yan likes to tell people about history.
And now Sunzi and other children are Shen Yan's audience.
Shen Yan said: "Now let me tell you about my ancestors."
"At the beginning of the birth of mankind, there were two leaders. They were called Yan and Huang, that is, the Yan Emperor Shennong clan, and the Huang Emperor Xuanyuan clan..."
"At that time, also
Almost the same as now,
Very chaotic and disorderly,
Among them was a tribe named Jiuli, and they had a leader named Chi You who was like a great demon. "
"Conquests continue on the earth, the tribes are in chaos, and human beings are living the most difficult days."
"Until the alliance of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang defeated Chi You, officially unified the entire earth, ended the war, and established the most amazing civilization in the world..."
"The Yan Emperor Shennong and the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan are also respected by mankind and are the ancestors of the entire human race."
A group of children opened their mouths wide. The beginning of human beings? The ancestor of all humans?
The stories Shen Yan told were really nice.
Shen Yan said: "So all humans who have survived this civilization are called descendants of Yan and Huang."
The saying "descendants of Yan and Huang" finally appeared for the first time 30,000 years later.
"And what flows in me is the blood of Yanhuang in this story. If someone asks you about me again, do you know how to answer?"
Zhuzi and others nodded quickly: "The descendants of Yan and Huang."
The confused ones seemed to understand, but they seemed not to understand.
But just because they are young, they may not understand it well, but this subtle influence has already been planted.
Shen Yan finally answered the question that Sunzi and others had just asked him about why he worshiped his ancestors: "These ancestors, if you worship them more often, your wishes will come true."
A group of children all looked at the tablets.
May all your wishes come true?
Then they have to say goodbye.
The excitement made Shen Yan stunned for a moment.
I followed Shen Yan's appearance just now, although it looked a bit nondescript and quite weird.
"Ancestor, bless me to have delicious food every day and endless clothes."
Sunzi's little butt poked to the side and squeezed open a crack: "Ancestor, my name is Sunzi, remember to protect me, I want to become very strong."
Sun Zi was particularly serious because Shen Yan said that if he prayed more, he would be blessed.
Because he is young, he believes in whatever he says and is very firm.
Shen Yan looked a little funny, why did it become like this?
But there is no stopping it. Descendants of Yan and Huang can be blood, or they can be symbols of a culture. Anyone who has developed a common sense of identity under the influence of such culture can also call themselves descendants of Yan and Huang to a certain extent.
Yanhuang culture is an inclusive culture. Just like in history, the land of China has been invaded by foreigners, but what was the final result?
All were assimilated and sucked into the vortex of this culture.
That's why there were fifty-six famous families in Shen Yan's time.
Sunzi waited for the noisy worshipers to finish, then walked out with a smile on his face, still thinking about when the ancestors would realize their wishes.
Walking out of the cellar, you started talking to me again.
"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is primitive..."
After shouting a few words, his feet would suddenly fly into the air.
They really find it fun and interesting, so they have to play together for a while from time to time.
Walking and yelling all the way, even children who can't remember can recite the following content in this rhythm.
Just like the era of Shen Yan
, you can often see a group of primary school students laughing and happily reciting a text together.
Human thoughts come from experience, and some things have been engraved since childhood, just like a knife, which begins to carve the soul and has the direction of shaping.
These children may just be laughing and joking for fun now, but they don't know that the things that are the most profound in their memories are already taking root and sprouting.
Shen Yan is still enshrined in the ancestral hall. After Zhao Kuo came back, the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group was still very busy, but Shen Yan seemed to be able to do his own thing, because Zhao Kuo would arrange everything else. , there is no need for him to work hard to take care of the east and the west.
Shen Yan's most important task now is to complete the seven-day worship service.
He had just started to make offerings, and it was already having some effect. When the ceremony to open the bloodline was completed seven days later, he didn't know what it would be like.
Outside, Shen Yan heard the sound of a child reciting the Thousand-Character Classic, and he suddenly felt that the surroundings were starting to become familiar.
In the past, no one knew anything about Yanhuang or Chinese civilization, but now, the sound of reading is heard, and the stories passed down through the ages...
Shen Yan said to the rows of tablets: "Did you hear it? I don't know if their voices can be transmitted into Mengyuan for you to hear, but I can tell you that a group of children are reading Tiandi Xuanhuang... …”
Shen Yan stayed at the ancestral hall until the incense burned out.
The ancestral hall was so quiet that even the wind could not be heard.
I don’t know how much time passed, but a distant sound of “En” sounded in the ancestral hall, and then it fell silent again, as if that sound had never appeared before.
After Shen Yan went out, the sun was particularly warm today, and it felt very comfortable on his body.
Shen Yan thought for a while, filled a wooden basin with water, and let it sit in the sun.
Bamboo shoots and others also gathered around to watch the fun.
Shen Yan lowered his head and recited a few words, then transformed into a fish and landed in the basin.
Sure enough, I could breathe freely in the water, as if I had some of the talents of a fish.
With the recent events, he didn't have time to try out his latest abilities, so he just happened to be free now.
Bamboo shoots and others: "..."
Several little heads were buried in the basin to watch the fish.
"Shen Yan, is that you? Just blink if it is."
"Oh, how can I eat fish in the future? When I see fish, I think of Shen Yan."
"Don't let the cat come over. When we are in the shop, the cat likes to play with the fish in our water tank."
Next to him, Zhao Kuo, who was making tables and stools, narrowed his eyes.
The bloodline limits of Tangcheng?
Shen Yan's identity has always been a mystery. Shen Yan also has many strange secrets, and he knows them all.
Tangcheng is also the most mysterious city.
Shen Yan is from Tangcheng?
Zhao Kuo walked over and looked at a fish that was swimming very happily in the basin: "A confused guy who came out of Tangcheng?"
As soon as the sound fell, the fish in the wooden basin slapped its tail and came out with a handful of water.
Bamboo and others laughed and shrank their necks. In this weather, although the water is not cold, it is not warm either.
Sunzi: "Commander, no, we Shen Yan are descendants of Yan and Huang, not from Tangcheng."
The other children also nodded: "The bloodline is ancient."
"From the beginning of mankind."
Talking all over the place (),
?[()]?『Come to []+ to read the latest chapter+complete chapter』(),
Descendants of Yan and Huang? What new word is this?
Zhao Kuo was going to ask Shen Yan what was going on now. He knew something about the bloodline boundaries in Tangcheng.
As a result, Shen Yan never came back and shoveled water on him from time to time, having a great time.
When Dudu heard the sound, he stuck his head out from the big money box that Zhao Kuo had moved to the yard under the sun, and muttered: "Adults don't know how to be ashamed."
But when he thought about how he was born, it seemed that this was indeed a small scene.
Bamboo shoots and others were also laughing loudly.
The Tiger and Leopard Mercenaries are as happy as before.
In the next few days, tables and stools were made one by one, and the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group
People are now familiar with making tables and stools.
Maltose and fermented glutinous rice are still produced in large quantities every day. The people of the Haw Par Mercenary Group who just returned are also very surprised, because every day many people from the mercenary bar come to their place to carry fermented fermented glutinous rice. Well, it is now called rice wine. They Shen Yan didn't seem to have been away for long, but Shen Yan actually transferred all his business to some mercenary groups.
This is very hard to imagine. Because of the relationship between the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group and the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group, other mercenary groups used to look at the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group’s face and attitude first, so it is not easy to persuade such a business. .
The quantity sold was quite large, and it was all money.
They already knew about the several new snacks added to the group, and they were as delicious as ever. They really didn't know what weird things Shen Yan had in his mind.
In the past, they might still have gotten to the bottom of it, but Shen Yan had lived in their mercenary group for so long, got along very well with them, and made their lives more comfortable. Everyone saw this, so , Shen Yan's identity is actually not that important anymore, because... they are all one of his own.
In addition, the production of cloth has also accelerated with the addition of new workers.
Fortunately, they would make some looms when they had free time, otherwise there wouldn't be enough.
Of course, there are accidents. For example, every night, Sunzi and other children sneak into the ancestral hall and worship their ancestors with a smile.
Goodbye, may all your wishes come true.
During this period, Su Mu came to see Shen Yan once.
Shen Yan walked out of the yard to see Su Mu. Because there were sugar making and weaving crafts in the yard, outsiders were not allowed to look at them. This was the rule of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group. Shen Yan couldn't do it because he and Su Mu were at Damon's Gate. If you know it, make an exception.
Su Mu looked very solemnly at the ordinary mercenary station surrounded by walls.
It was too ordinary, even a little simpler than most of the mercenary regiments he had seen.
But he could clearly feel the familiarity, which was the feeling he had every time he entered the Tangcheng ancestral hall.
Why is this so?
In the past few days, besides adapting to life here, the most important thing he did was to find out about Shen Yan's life experience.
But the more I checked, the more confused I became. A handyman who was picked up?
As for Shen Yan’s previous experience, no one actually
() Know(),
“?[()]?『Come to[]&see the latest chapter&complete chapter』(),
I thought you left the mercenary city. "
Su Mu finally came back to his senses: "The mercenary city is actually not bad, just suitable for me to recover from my injuries."
Then he said: "I came to you with the same old problem. Do you really have nothing to do with Tangcheng? We Tangcheng people attach great importance to blood relationships. When we go out, this bloodline is the most trustworthy bond between Tangcheng people, so If there is any trouble, we will provide each other with the help we can."
Shen Yan thought to himself that Su Mu could escape from the attack of a Vatican bishop, so his strength was certainly not weak. It would be great if he could help him.
But I am really not from Tangcheng.
Shaked his head.
Su Mu frowned even more. He always felt that Shen Yan was hiding something.
As for why Shen Yan was able to open the bloodline boundary, Su Mu took a look at the yard, and maybe the answer was inside.
There was a feeling there that made him feel very close, yet extremely suppressing.
After chatting for a few more words, Su Mu turned into a big bird and flew away.
Shen Yan turned around and saw Zhao Kuo's unpredictable expression: "Is that person from Tangcheng just now?"
Shen Yan nodded: "You have to say that I am his relative, and now he has come to his door again. Do you think you are still willing to recognize your relatives now?"
Zhao Kuo thought to himself that it is indeed easy for people to misunderstand. They all have the blood of the Tang people who are known as the best in the world. In fact, Zhao Kuo also feels that Shen Yan has some relationship with Tangcheng.
But Shen Yan has always denied it. There is no need to deny it. No matter what Shen Yan's identity is, the Tiger Leopard Mercenary Group will not mind now.
Another puzzle that makes people think hard and can't figure it out.
The two went back while talking, and Zhao Kuo asked about the cellar.
Shen Yan: "That is an ancestral hall, a place specifically used to burn incense and worship ancestors. I have to dig more vents. Now I don't feel like the incense is flourishing at all."
How could his Chinese ancestral hall be so deserted?
Zhao Kuo: "..."
Ancestral hall? Incense offerings? What kind of strange ritual is this?
And are there more ancestors? Thousands of them, right?
Zhao Kuo was very sure that it was definitely a ritual, because he could feel the extraordinary power there, like a tearing whirlpool, tearing apart something and opening up a connecting bridge.
Next, Shen Yan basically stayed in the ancestral hall, focusing on digging some reasonable vents.
Since the affairs of the ancestral hall were not settled, he was not in the mood to care about other things.
During these seven days, Shen Yan and the others were in a happy mood and everything was back on track.
Others in the Mercenary City were not having a good time.
Abyss really closed the market to them. According to the timetable, it was time to open the market, but Abyss didn't react at all.
Although I had expected this result, when it was really confirmed, I was almost furious.
This is how to do? It seems that the products that are unique to the abyss are being consumed less and less bit by bit.
What's even more annoying is that Zhao Kuo has been active in recent days. Why?
I went to ask some mercenary groups with good connections if they could repair trucks and if they could buy pens and paper. When the Tiger and Parr Mercenary Group could buy some, they would buy more and then share them with everyone.
() The one who was angry was naturally the mercenary group who had a bad relationship with the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, because Zhao Kuo ignored them at all and had no part in them.
Zhao Kuo and Li Xiang discussed this matter. Shen Yuan could make money by doing business and could refuse the mercenary city, so Shen Yuan did not refuse Zhao Kuo's proposal.
The mercenary group that Zhao Kuo came to breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't have to worry about this matter, and then looked at the other frustrated mercenary groups with a good-looking attitude.
Except for some friendly mercenary groups in the mercenary city, most of them are on guard against each other and have competitive relationships.
In this strange way, they have been living together.
If someone is frustrated, there will definitely be people watching.
Originally, the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group became the only mercenary group that traded with the Abyss, which naturally aroused everyone's dissatisfaction and was opposed by everyone.
But Zhao Kuo roped in some people and helped them solve this problem.
The situation in the Mercenary City is now very delicate. If you want to use an iron plate to squeeze out the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, I'm afraid it won't work.
Moreover, if they want to disrupt the trade between the Yellow Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group and the Abyss, I am afraid that other mercenary groups that have benefited from it will not agree, otherwise their only trade channel with the Abyss will be blocked.
Anyway, now, there are some differences in the attitudes of various mercenary groups towards the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group.
This can be seen from the fact that the business in the shops at the city gate has improved a bit.
In fact, Shen Yan never thought that one day they would become purchasing agents.
Zhao Kuo knows how to win over some people and divide others. Anyway, he just wants to prevent others from uniting to deal with the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group. In such a complicated situation, they have room to survive.
Recently, many people have come to Zhao Kuo's door, all wanting to buy some Abyss products through the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group. No matter how dissatisfied they are with the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, at least for now, they have to be nice and suppress their inner thoughts. .
Among these visitors, what surprised Shen Yan was that the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group also came.
The expressions of the members of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group were strange. The grievances they felt when they left seemed to be completely released at this moment.
The person who came to lead the team was an old man named Zhao Zongtong. He was Zhao Kuo's uncle and the brother of Zhao Kuo's grandfather.
Zhao Zongtong also sighed: "When you left with your people, I still remember your anger. ()"
“?()?[()]『Come[]? Read the latest chapter? Complete chapter』()”
"At that time, many brothers in the regiment tried to persuade you to stay, but no one expected that the fight would be so decisive in the end."
Zhao Kuo did not speak. The Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group was very complicated. Some people wanted to expel him, but some wanted to retain him. Uncle Zhao Zongtong was one of them. He admired Zhao Kuo's strength and potential very much.
But it is precisely because of Zhao Kuo's strength and potential that many people in the group are afraid of a living legend who is too young to imagine the third chapter.
Once a professional has passed the seventh prologue of the low prologue, it is difficult for him to reach the sky with each prologue. Under Zhao Kuo's rapid promotion speed, many people have lingering fears, and under the deliberate instigation of thoughtful people, fear produce.
Because Zhao Kuo and Huangcheng were too close.
Rather than saying that Zhao Kuo is a mercenary in a mercenary city, it is better to say that he is an out-and-out wild man in a deserted city.
() Barbarian, a barbarian who is likely and capable of becoming the heir to the oldest iron-blooded mercenary group.
Not only were the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group unable to make up their minds, but other mercenary groups were also panicking.
Finally, during the battle between Zhao Kuo and his men against the invading demigod Yixi, someone caught Zhao Kuo's hand.
Some people died in that battle, and all the fingers were pointed at Zhao Kuo, accusing him of poor command.
But in the battle with the demigod Yixi, there is no possibility of not sacrificing at all.
After Zhao Kuo united with the White King Xiao Lingchen of the Spirit Tribe and the Abyss fleet to repel the demigod Yixi, they each returned to their respective bases. The White King Xiao Lingchen became a hero of the Spirit Tribe, and the leader of the Abyss was also influenced by the Abyss people. The liveliest cheers of the ghosts.
However, when Zhao Kuo led his people back to the mercenary city, they were put into trouble by various mercenary groups using the excuse of command errors.
The people who came back at that time were confused and unbelievable.
However, even within the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group there were voices reprimanding Zhao Kuo, and they even became the loudest among all the mercenary groups. Other mercenary groups naturally took this opportunity to follow suit.
More importantly, the sleeping third chapter of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group remained silent.
What this means, Zhao Kuo knows, everyone knows.
So amidst everyone's laughter or sighs, Zhao Kuo took some wounded people away from the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group and re-established the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group.
As for the brothers who didn't leave with him, Zhao Kuo didn't say anything. After all, they were born in the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Regiment and grew up there. Their family, friends and children were all there. That was their home, and the decision to give up was too difficult.
Zhao Kuo refused all their attempts to persuade him to stay.
The anger at that time can be imagined. At that moment, Zhao Kuo no longer felt that he was a member of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group, and the last sense of belonging had disappeared.
Regardless of whether he was motivated or angry, Zhao Kuo chose to start over again under the agitation of a group of people and the indifference of those he was supposed to be closest to.
Zhao Zongtong's voice seemed to take people back to that year again.
Of course, everyone's mood is different at this time. For example, the people of the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group, how many people laughed at them at that time, but now they are getting better and better, and even the people of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group must Come to find them.
They believed that Zhao Zongtong's arrival definitely meant that he did not miss them.
Zhao Zongtong continued: "This is a bamboo shoot, right? It was just a little kid who could walk at first."
Sunzi was very confused. He didn't know this person at all. He was too young when he left the Jagged Mercenary Group.
It was Locust Cub who reminded me: "Your grandpa, my biological grandpa."
Sunzi's parents died in that battle, and before their death, Sunzi was entrusted to Zhao Kuo.
A child without parents would not be treated well in the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group.
But even so, it is better than following Zhao Kuo, whose future is uncertain.
But Sunzi's parents fought with Zhao Kuo, and this battle was deemed a mistake. Sunzi's parents would naturally be given a reputation of being unfavorable in the battle, so many people would gossip and say some unpleasant things in front of Sunzi. if.
Sunzi's heart disease was unconsciously planted at that time. Anyone who said he had no parents would make him very sad.
It was also the case that Zhao Kuocai had to take away the bamboo shoots. The situation of other children also changed.
almost,
Their parents died in the war,
And because of the stigma, it is impossible to get better care.
The atmosphere of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group at that time was like this. They were torn apart, targeting each other, and the internal conflicts were shocking.
Sun Zi was confused: "What is grandpa? I don't know him anyway. The people in the Jagged Mercenary Group are all bad people."
When he needed shelter the most, he turned a blind eye. He was the child who had the least nostalgia for the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group, because other children may have some good memories there, but he did not.
All was quiet.
Zhao Zongtong opened his mouth, but no words came out. At that time, the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group was like crazy, torn in half, and innocent children were affected.
At that time, including him, he only wanted to calm down the chaos, but he ignored the harm it caused to others.
The chaos was much more serious than imagined, and the oldest iron-blooded mercenary group almost split into two halves.
It was only after Zhao Kuo left that things calmed down. Those who were holding on to him seemed to have died down. It seemed that their purpose was just to drive Zhao Kuo away.
Mrs. Hailis and Ole were the main forces at that time, but more of them were afraid of the other people who were in power because Zhao Kuo, a barbarian whose bloodline was more inclined to the deserted city.
Thinking about it now, the split at that time is frightening.
Zhao Kuo suddenly said: "Is this why you came here?"
"If some people in the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group really feel guilty, they should be kinder to those former brothers."
Zhao Zongtong opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "I won't hide it from you. Coming here this time is the tacit approval of the group."
He hesitated for a moment: "There are some problems in the group now."
"Last time Ole colluded with people from Sin City to cause trouble in the Mercenary City, and he deserved to be killed in the end."
"Mrs. Hailis is his direct relative. Although there is no evidence that Mrs. Hailis was involved in this matter, the business in the group can no longer be managed by Mrs. Hailis."
Ole's original words were indeed too shocking. The Vatican hoped that the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group would be defeated, split, and then rely on the Vatican.
So some people in the group began to unite to be wary of Mrs. Hailis, which caused Mrs. Hailis to lose her power.
Zhao Zongtong: “But I don’t know when the business in our group started, but a large part of it is actually related to the nobles of Brahma Emperor City.”
"After Mrs. Hailis was no longer responsible for the business within the group, the nobles of Brahma Emperor City completely cut off business contacts with us. The venues, equipment, and workers recruited for these businesses were all gone. Value has even become a drag.”
Zhao Kuo glanced at Zhao Zongtong. A large part of the business is related to Brahma Emperor City? What proportion does this majority account for?
The ratio of being able to make the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group look down on themselves and look for them is probably not low.
Zhao Zongtong continued: "Although this has caused us a lot of trouble and losses, the foundation of our Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group is still there, and the impact is within controllable range."
“However, apart from wheat fields and minerals, our remaining industries are mostly fisheries.”
The fishing boats are all rented from the people and ghosts of the abyss, and their lease period is about to expire.
Now that the people and ghosts of the Abyss refuse to open the market, they cannot renew the contract to continue leasing these fishing boats.
That is to say,
They are about to lose their fishery as well.
Zhao Kuo probably knew why the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group came to the door.
This is to use the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group to pull the strings.
Help them continue to renew their contract with Abyss.
A lease in the abyss requires a soul contract to be signed. If it is not returned upon expiration, it is estimated that a large area will be killed by the soul.
If the contract cannot be renewed, the fishing boat must be returned, which means that such a large amount of fishing income will be lost.
The Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group is already in a special period now, and now another heavy blow has made it worse.
Even for this considerable amount of business, they must find the Tiger and Leopard Mercenary Group.
The corners of Zhao Kuo's mouth suddenly raised: "When Mrs. Hailis came to the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group, I remember the atmosphere in the group was full of joy."
Zhao Kuo said: "With the relationship with Brahma Emperor City, why is it getting worse and worse?"
People from the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group: "..."
Zhao Kuo continued: "I know you came here to ask me to help you because there are so many former brothers in the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group."
"But...are they really out of food? Or is it just that the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group is unwilling to give up the interests of the fishery?"
Not only was he reluctant to give up the benefits, but he also wanted to lose face, so he used his former brothers as a shield.
The two were about to say something, when suddenly the ground shook and the earth cracked.
No, there was no crack. It was just their souls that made them feel that a huge crack opened in the earth.
From the great chasm rises an incense-filled palace that only the soul can see.
Nine giant cauldrons stand around the palace, and a golden dragon winds up and coils on the roof. From the palace, black birds fly up and hover in the sky.
Zhao Kuo couldn't help but look over. Isn't this the place where Shen Yan performed that strange ritual?
Shen Yan is also confused now. Today is the seventh day, the last day to complete the opening of the bloodline boundary. He has just finished burning the last incense.
But is it such a big battle to open the bloodline boundary?
What's going on with the divine dragon of Yanhuang, the black bird of China, the bronze tripod of Dingjiuzhou, and the palace full of incense?
Everything is projected into the soul, which is jaw-dropping.
Shen Yan swallowed his saliva: "My first ancestor."!
