"Hey, hey, is it a bit too much to say something like this in front of me?" Su Chen complained.
"Hahaha, at worst, I'll treat you to a drink after I win the first place."
Huo Xiu laughed, but then frowned, "But this time there are many competitors. Although the young princes and princesses are not as talented as the oldest and most advanced ones, they are still His Majesty's after all.
Children, regardless of blood or resources, cannot be underestimated."
"There are also Luo Cheng and the others, and not only them, but even my brothers from the Huo family will probably participate." .??.
"After all, this is an opportunity tailor-made by His Majesty himself. Who can refuse?"
As he said that, Huo Xiu muttered, "But I still don't understand why you didn't receive the notice."
In fact, Su Chen also felt strange. Since outstanding students among the students were also eligible to participate in this winter hunting, why didn't he receive the notice?
Is there something fishy in it?
"I'll check it out for you."
Huo Xiu volunteered. He valued Su Chen as a partner. If he wanted to achieve great success in the future, he would definitely not be able to do without Su Chen's help.
After Huo Xiu left, Luo'er also came back. Su Chen asked her to go to the market to find some materials needed for old man Zhu Zhan's "Forging True Formation Diagram", and she also brought back the news.
"Master, the raw materials you listed are not sold in many formation shops."
The news that Luo'er said was unexpected by Su Chen. Originally, it was some relatively rare formation materials and was not a popular commodity.
"However, I found a place in the market where there were a lot of anonymous transaction information posted, both for buying and selling."
Luo'er added, "I saw a message in it, saying that he has Mignon Glaze for sale at a price of 5,000 Daoyuan Dan. If you need it, you can trade it at the place he designated tomorrow afternoon."
Muxi Liuli, this is Su Chen
One of the required formation materials.
The price of five thousand Daoyuan Pills is not cheap, but Su Chen doesn't care, as long as he can buy it in stock, he is not short of money.
At that moment, Su Chen continued to practice.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that he asked Luo'er to look after his house, and he went to the place mentioned in the message.
That location was also in the imperial capital. More than half an hour later, Su Chen arrived at this area.
This place is very remote, the buildings are very low and shabby, and the people walking on the road are all dressed in shabby clothes. Su Chen's first impression is that this place looks like a slum in the imperial capital.
People around him often cast strange looks at Su Chen, but Su Chen ignored them and strode towards the agreed upon location.
There were not many people who could use the Mignon Rhinoceros Glaze, and the price that person bid was not low. Su Chen estimated that at most he would be the only buyer to attend the appointment.
After searching for a while, Su Chen found the agreed-upon location, which was a low courtyard with a huge poplar tree at the door, stretching out a canopy that was ten feet wide.
Su Chen came to the door and knocked. Soon, the door opened a crack and a head poked out.
"I'm here to buy mignonette glass."
Su Chen said.
The man looked around and then said: "Come in."
As he spoke, he retracted his head, opened the door, and let Su Chen in.
After entering the gate, there is a small courtyard first, and after passing through the courtyard, there is a hall.
The hall was also in tatters and was full of dust. It didn't look like a place where people lived.
The furnishings in the room are also very simple, with a table and a
A man was sitting on a chair, leaning lazily with his feet on the table, looking carefree.
"You are the one selling mignonette glass?"
Su Chen asked the man.
"Did you bring the money?"
The man asked without raising his eyes.
Su Chen took out a storage bag, placed it on the other side of the table, and asked, "Where's the Mignon Rhinoceros Glaze?"
The man looked at Su Chen, then put his feet down from the table, sat up straight, turned his hand over, and a wooden box appeared and placed it on the table.
The person who brought Su Chen in picked up Su Chen's storage bag and inspected it, while Su Chen picked up the wooden box and opened it. Inside was a piece of transparent jade that was full of brilliance. It was indeed mignonette.
On the other side, the man also finished checking the Daoyuan Dan and nodded towards the man.
"Okay, you can go." .??.
the man said.
Although their attitudes were not good, Su Chen didn't expect these people's attitudes to be any better. After putting away the mignonette glass, he turned around and left.
"Leave the mignonette glass."
The man suddenly said behind Su Chen.
"Oh why?"
Su Chen paused and smiled lightly.
"You can leave Muxi Liuli standing up. Otherwise, you can only leave lying down."
The man also said in an indifferent tone.
"That's a pity, actually I don't like fighting with people."
Su Chen sighed.
"I dont like it either."
The man smiled and said, "It would be best if everyone reached a consensus. If you can save your life, we can also save some energy."
"In other words, do you want to be dishonest?"
Su Chen shook his head and asked.
"Whether reputation is more important or life is more important, you can't even tell the difference, right?"
The man laughed.
"Just the two of you?"
Su Chen also smiled.
"wrong!"
The man clapped his hands, and immediately seven or eight people walked out of the inner courtyard, each with a fierce look on his face. Among them were several first-level warriors from the Tongli Realm.
"Nine of them will beat you one. If you don't want to die, leave Muxi Liuli behind and get out!"
The man hummed.
In fact, he did not intend to let Su Chen leave alive, but he did not want to do it in the house, but planned to do it in the yard, where he had already arranged the formation in advance, which was more convenient.
"Oh, I'm so scared."
Su Chen smiled.
"Don't be afraid, as long as you keep Muxi Liuli, we won't hurt you."
the man said.
"Is there an ambush in the yard outside?"
Su Chen smiled.
"Um?"
Those people all looked weird, who told this kid?
"I was deceived by five thousand Daoyuan Dan. As long as I report it to the government, someone will definitely come to investigate. Although you are hiding here and there are many people around here, if we really want to investigate, we can still find you."
Su Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "In addition, I have seen you again, will you let me live?"
"So, the only reason you kept telling me to leave just now is that some trap was set up in the yard. You didn't activate it when you came in. You wanted to confirm first whether I really brought five thousand Daoyuan Pills."
