If someone told Jiang Chen that he would be targeted by the Peach Blossom Assassin on the second day he came to Xiliao City, then he would definitely check the almanac and choose another auspicious day to go out.
Unfortunately, there is no "if" in life.
Therefore, Jiang Chen had to stand under the bulletin board of Hunter Plaza, enduring the smell of sweat in the crowded crowd, listening to the curses and complaints of the hunters, while searching for orders with the right price.
Jiang Chen actually found it hard to imagine that Chi Yang, as the number one expert in Xiliao City and the second master of the Double Wolf Hunting Group, would actually come to a place like this to take orders in person.
Chiyang explained that because the expenses required to do justice are too high, the hunting group's monthly payment is far from enough, so he can only come here to take on private work.
The girl in green clothes behind her made a clear sneer: "The top master, being summoned here and there with hundreds of taels of silver, running around like a dog every day, is it worth it to be a hero? "
Jiang Chen suddenly turned around, glared at her and said, "Why are you still following us?"
"Didn't I tell you, we have a long time to come!" The girl in green clothes looked sideways at Jiang Chen, with a mocking smile emerging from the corner of her mouth, "What, you think I'm getting in the way of you two? Well, I'll stay away!"
As she said that, she took two steps back and spread her two jade-white palms: "That's enough!"
Jiang Chen said angrily: "A dignified peach blossom...why do you look like a mangy dog?"
The girl in green clothes wrinkled her pretty nose: "That's how I like it. Are you going to bite me?" She raised her finger at Jiang Chen and said, "Come on, it's my grandson!"
Of course Jiang Chen would not fall for her aggressive tactics, and said angrily: "When I take a bath and go to bed at night, let's see if you still dare to follow me."
The girl in green clothes smiled and said: "Little thief, you don't understand this. It's not just men who can take advantage of women. In fact, women can also take advantage of men. Of course a bad thief like me will take advantage of him if he has any advantage." I want to occupy it!”
"you!"
At this time, Chi Yang in front said: "Xiao Jiang, what do you think of these commissions?"
Jiang Chen turned his head and his eyes fell on the orders.

…
The girl in green clothes walked to the notice board at some point, pointed to the last commission of "Warm Quilt" and said: "This price is very suitable, you two should consider it."
Although her voice was delicate, it passed through the noisy crowd and reached Jiang Chen and Chi Yang's ears clearly.
Jiang Chen and Chi Yang looked at the position where her slender fingers rested and shook their heads together.
"I've heard about that lady. Her generosity is famous far and wide. As long as you make her happy, your reward will be inevitable." The girl in green clothes chuckled, "Think about it, that lady is alone, in How difficult it is to endure the lonely cold night, you Chiyang Hero are so benevolent and righteous, are you stingy with mercy at this time?"
"I heard that it was a fairy dance scam, designed to extort single young people." Chi Yang shook his head, "Besides, I'm not handsome enough, and Xiao Jiang is not strong enough."
Jiang Chen glanced at Chiyang quietly. Judging from Chiyang's tone, it seems that he has seriously considered this commission...
"You two go together, you will be handsome and strong, and you will definitely meet the requirements of the lady." The girl in green clothes laughed jokingly, her cute and cute appearance made the peeping eyes light up.
Several self-proclaimed young hunters have already started to dress their clothes and hair, ready to make a move.
"I just thought you were complimenting us."
Jiang Chen responded casually, his eyes scanning the bulletin board back and forth, thinking over and over again.
There are only a few dozen commissions on the bulletin board, most of which are missing persons cases, with prices ranging from a few hundred to thousands. A small number of them are looking for demon materials in the Netherworld Forest. The journey is long and dangerous, which is not cost-effective in terms of time.
Finally, Jiang Chen and Chi Yang's eyes fell on the order form "Looking for the Ruby Ring" and stayed there for a long time.
——"My wife disappeared a month ago. I was holding a grand birthday party for her that day, but she disappeared mysteriously at the party. I sent many people to inquire about her whereabouts, but I couldn't find any clues. .I have been restless every day for this month and can’t sleep all night. If anyone can bring her back to me, I am willing to provide a reward of five thousand taels of silver; if I find the ruby ring on her hand, I will I will also pay you one thousand taels of silver as a reward!"
——Signed by: Fourth Master Jia of Baishi Street.
According to the experience of Xiliao City, the woman who has been missing for a month has almost zero chance of surviving.
But there is no limit on life or death on this order, so bringing back the corpse probably counts as completing the mission.
The most important thing is that the price it gives is the highest among all commissions!
With such a generous reward, even though the hope is slim, people can't help but want to give it a try.
"The sun is gradually rising, crows are singing on the eaves, and the down-and-out heroes are still lingering..." The girl in green clothes hummed the song softly while beating the beat.
I have to say that her voice is delicate and innocent, joyful and pleasant to the ears, but the content of the lyrics makes people unhappy.
However, she also reminded Jiang Chen that they should not hesitate any longer.
The two exchanged glances and nodded at the same time.
Chiyang Yuezhong stepped forward and took off the order form for the "Ruby Ring".
This move immediately caused a lot of whispers, and the singing of the girl in green clothes also stopped.
Chiyang ignored everyone's reaction, put away the list and walked away.
"Why did Chi Yang take that mission?"
"I only know that he is good at fighting, is he also good at finding others?"
"That Ruby Lady has been missing for a month, and all her bones must have been eaten away by wild wolves!"
…
Jiang Chen took a few steps to catch up with Chi Yang. Before he could speak, the haunting voice of the girl in green clothes came from behind: "Did you hear that? Everyone doesn't think much of you!"
"Then let them wait and see..." Jiang Chen was about to retort when he suddenly saw Chiyang stop and look in the other direction with great solemnity.
Jiang Chen also turned his head to look with some feeling.
Where his eyes focused, a giant-like figure walked into the square from the other end of the long street.
"Dong——"
"Dong——"
The ground shook with the man's footsteps.
"Martial arts." Chiyang sighed helplessly, "I came at the wrong time."
There seemed to be an extremely hot air flow in the square. Everyone was surprised by this inexplicable feeling. The weaker ones had already begun to sweat. Amidst the exclamations of others, they looked at the burly man in the distance belatedly. A mountainous figure.
"It's martial arts!"
"Oh my God! What are you doing here, Wu Lian?"
"Who else offended him..."
The crowd in the square dispersed after a burst of panic and shouting.
