Chapter 109 The exchange meeting begins
Chapter 109 The exchange meeting begins
Northern Desert, where the Seventh Squad is stationed.
The fierce wind and sand roared unscrupulously, invading.The tents in the station are all wind-resistant tents, and there is no accident when they are knocked down by wind and sand in the open space.
"It seems that the task is coming to a critical moment." Wu Qi, who was eating dry food, was surprisingly serious, and this atmosphere soon affected Qin Ke who was next to him.Qin Ke took a sip of the clear water in his bag, and finally his chapped lips became a little more moist.After so many days of missions in the desert, they don't even have enough drinking water. It's better to save some now.
Qin Ke handed the water bag to Wu Qi, but Wu Qi just looked at it struggling, and then threw it back to Qin Ke. "Let's keep the water, I'm not very thirsty now."
"Don't refuse, drink some, you should know how terrible the lack of water is in this desert, right?"
Seeing that Qin Ke handed back the water bag again, he had no choice but to take a sip.The cool water flowed down from the throat, cooling down the body that was about to burn.After taking a sip, he didn't dare to drink any more. He gritted his teeth and put the lid back on after grabbing the lid.
"Gudong!" The sound the water bag made when it was thrown back was really pleasant, but Wu Qi could only swallow his saliva eagerly.
Qin Ke sighed, and sincerely hoped that this task would end soon. In order to rush to finish this task, they even pushed back the opportunity to go to the exchange meeting.Not to mention, I really regret it now. I heard that there should be quite a lot of people coming to this exchange meeting, and there must be a lot of good things.
"Oh, it's useless to regret now." Wu Qi seemed to understand the meaning revealed by Qin Ke's expression, rubbing his hands together.
"That's right, let's go, you can't lose the chain at the critical moment."
Wu Qi nodded, stood up too, and finally walked with Qin Ke to the gathering place of other team members a few meters away.
"Beep...beep...I'm very sorry, the number you dialed is not in the service area, please..."
The familiar female voice sounded from the receiver again, and Qu Tan could only hang up silently.This is already the number 30 five calls he made, not only Wu Qi's, but also Qin Ke's. Unexpectedly, both of them are not in the service area. "You don't have to work so hard to do the task, you don't even go to the rare exchange meeting in more than ten years." As if feeling sorry for Wu Qi and the others, Qu Tan left the hotel with a little disappointment.
Today is the official start of the exchange meeting. Although the exchange meeting will be held for about three days, it is always more cost-effective to arrive early, and you can occupy a good booth anyway.Qu Tan is a conjurer. Although conjuration is not as convenient as runes, it has some irreplaceable effects for many people.So he also wanted to take advantage of this exchange meeting to earn some extra money, and inquire about Julingding by the way.
But it's been a long time since I saw an auxiliary item that can gather spiritual energy around him. This gathering spirit tripod is a rare help for him and his master.This time I came here to a large extent because of this Gathering Spirit Cauldron, it is said that I will show my face at this exchange meeting...
Qu Tan stretched out his hand to touch his bulging pocket, and the confidence in his heart suddenly became stronger.With these spell orders that are quite rare in the market, it must be possible to get them with the Spirit Gathering Cauldron, right?Even when half of the little rich were rushing towards the venue of the exchange meeting, Li Yunqi and the others also saw two groups of people coming to pick them up.
"This..." Li Yunqi poked Xiao Changfeng next to him in embarrassment, but Xiao Changfeng only gave him a calm look.Li Yunqi suddenly felt that the protagonist had become unreliable, and people from both sides had come, so it was useless to pretend to be calm now?
In fact, from the emotional point of view, Li Yunqi is more inclined to Qu Jian's side, but Yan Chuan is also a girl, she has already rejected it once last time, so this time it is not good to embarrass others, right? "How about...or go together? Anyway, everyone's destination is the same."
Xiao Changfeng glanced at Li Yunqi who was smiling apologetically, opened his mouth and then closed it again.In fact, he would rather live a two-person world with Yun Qi, but since these people are here, it doesn't matter if they act together.
Xiao Changfeng chimed in and said, "Let's go together, we're going the same way anyway."
"Okay, then let's go together." No matter what, Yan Chuan was the one who was easy to talk, and she smiled first, breaking the deadlock.
"That's good, Qu Jian, how are you?"
Qu Jian, who was named by Li Yunqi, twitched the corners of his eyes first, then smiled and said: "Okay, then we'll be together." It's really unlucky today, to act together with two rivals in love.
It was only after Qu Jian came here that he found out that Xiao Changfeng was not the only rival in love.Is she the young miss of the Yan family?snort.Qu Jian snorted coldly again in his heart, then glanced at the smiling Yan Chuan from the corner of his eye.Don't say he was wrong, he could easily see through other people's mood swings, let alone a little girl who didn't hide her thoughts at all?
Qu Jian is worthy of being a person who has traveled the rivers and lakes for many years. Although he is not very old, in terms of experience alone, he is the most abundant among the people present here.Yan Chuan's infatuation and loss, Xiao Changfeng's protection and coldness, Qi Yang's obsession and resentment, the emotions and emotions of the three of them are all under his nose.As for Yun Qi... No matter what he thinks in his heart, the fact that he likes him will not change, so he doesn't want to observe the other party's emotions, so as not to shake himself.
The large k area covers a large area, and generally speaking, you need to have transportation to get to the place you want to go.However, as an adult, Qu Jian still has a car.He opened the car door graciously, clearly wanting Li Yunqi to get in the car alone.Xiao Changfeng sneered and grabbed Li Yunqi's hand, looked at Qu Jian and said, "Yun Qi will only sit with me."
"..." Qu Jian's eyes darkened, he didn't know what he was thinking, and when he spoke again, even Xiao Changfeng was taken aback. "Okay, the lady first."
This means that Qu Jian gave the front seat to the only girl among them, and let the three boys squeeze the back seat.But if you think about it carefully, this arrangement is indeed the most reasonable.Anyway, Yan Chuan is a girl, so it's not good for her to be crowded with a girl and two guys.Yan Chuan obviously also thought of this level, and after a forced smile at Qu Jian, he said, "Thank you very much." After speaking, she got into the co-pilot's seat.
When getting into the back seat, Xiao Changfeng's obvious position arrangement not only made Qu Jian frowned, but also made Yan Chuan's eyes a little more inexplicable.Li Yunqi shifted his position in embarrassment, trying to break free from the confinement of Xiao Changfeng's arm, but will Xiao Changfeng let him do what he wants?He did this to declare certain ownership rights, wouldn't it be a pity to give up now?
Tightening his big hand, Li Yunqi couldn't help but gasped in pain, stared secretly, and said softly: "It hurts to death! Still don't let go?!"
"...don't let go."
I thought that the pause was because the other party was thinking, but I didn't expect that Xiao Changfeng directly rejected him a second later.hateful!The atmosphere in this car couldn't be more strange, could it?Secretly glanced at the two people in the front seat who were not well-faced, Li Yunqi's own heart gradually cooled down.I'm really going to die... If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have taken the car, and it would be better than the current situation!
In fact, among the five people, whoever is the most embarrassing is undoubtedly Qi Yang who was squeezed into a can.I want to strike up a conversation, but I don't know what to say. After secretly observing Xia Yanchuan's expression, he didn't dare to speak casually, and the two next to him... had conflicts before, and it would be boring to strike up a conversation now.What's more... there must be a place to talk to him!Qi Yang was speechless and squeezed towards the car window again, trying not to bump into Xiao Changfeng.
In his concept, men naturally like women, and he is also very firm in implementing this aspect.But after hearing what Yan Chuan said a few days ago, he felt that a door that had never been seen before was opened before his eyes.It was too late for him to hide the things inside the door, and naturally he didn't want to test it himself, so he instinctively resisted the movement of approaching the two people around him.
Today is a last resort, if this is the case in the future, we will not be together if we are beaten to death.It's not that I don't like it, it's just that the loving behavior of the two people around him deeply hurt his heart. The girl he wanted to pursue was still sitting in the front seat, let alone hugging her shoulders and holding hands. Looking at each other, it is estimated that the sister paper will not give him a chance.
The road to love is long...
Unscrupulously teasing the person in his arms, even with excellent control, he was breathing heavily, as if he felt the temperature inside the car, but the faces of the rest of them turned from pale to blue.The feeling is clearest for him who has half of his body on the protagonist's body.With the sudden rapid heartbeat and uncontrollable trembling, Li Yunqi wanted to beat herself up hard. "It turned out to be strange..." His head was so low that he was about to break his neck, but he still had the idea of finding a crack in the ground to sneak in.
It's fine if he can't control the protagonist, but he can't even control himself.
"crazy……"
Qi Yang said something intentionally or unintentionally.
The rest of the people in the car responded from the bottom of their hearts: They are indeed crazy.
The complicated relationship, the atmosphere of heating up and cooling down, remained like this, and several people drove to the scene of the exchange meeting.
It is worthy of being an exchange meeting jointly organized by several big families, and this scale can only be done by a few big families with deep pockets.
After Qu Jian parked the car far away from the main venue of the exchange meeting, several people got out of the car.When you get here, the people who are originally three-way may have to separate.Qi Yang was the first to speak. After all, he didn't want to see that there was still someone in his goddess's heart. Only by staying away from Li Yunqi would he be able to catch up with Yan Chuan.Li Yunqi also understood what he was thinking, he couldn't wait for this to happen.So he ignored Yan Chuan's red eyes, and said with a dry smile: "That's a good relationship, take good care of Yan Chuan."
"That's natural." Qi Yang nodded as a matter of course, and looked at Yan Chuan with a warm feeling that was different from others.As if he couldn't stand Qi Yang's eyes anymore, Yan Chuan turned around and left without saying a word, his back was a little more flustered than before.
It seemed that Yan Chuan didn't care at all... Li Yunqi, who had a panoramic view of everything, heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, not only for Yan Chuan, but also for himself.Now that there is such a big change as the protagonist, he is not within the scope of Yan Chuan's choice, and if he continues to entangle, he is afraid that the protagonist will be blackened because of it.
He has almost touched the protagonist's temperament, if Yan Chuan continues like this, he doesn't know what the protagonist will do outrageous things in full view.What he did in the car just now was already the limit, if he went any further, he didn't know how he would respond...
Now that Yan Chuan has left, Qu Jian, who sounds like a joke but is actually more serious than anyone else, is still missing.If Yan Chuan could still make up his mind to refuse, then it would be really difficult for Qu Jian.It's not that he never refused, but seeing Qu Jian's persistent appearance, he only felt deeply powerless.
"Yun Qi is not worrying about me, is it?"
"...No, I'm thinking that I'm going to take Changfeng to go shopping, so we...or just here..." Although the matter of killing the donkey is not so glorious, it is still for the sake of How about Qu Jian?After barely persuading himself, Li Yunqi said the previous sentence.
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the two people in front of them showed a completely different look.
Qu Jian's loss of soul made Li Yunqi feel that he was the unpardonable person for a moment.Qu Jian also knew that he couldn't move forward any longer, otherwise he was afraid that Xiao Changfeng, who was staring at him beside him, would be forced to do something to Li Yunqi if he was in a hurry.It might be a good idea to give each other some time to relax.
Qu Jian is worthy of being Qu Jian, he easily figured out a lot of things and left with a wave of his hands.Before leaving, taking advantage of his speed, he left a shallow kiss on Li Yunqi's cheek.Li Yunqi was taken aback for a light kiss as if it was a usual greeting, and then smiled silently.
"It seems that we can take a break recently."
Xiao Changfeng didn't care if there was anyone around, he just grabbed Li Yunqi's hand.The feeling that the palm that was one size smaller than his was struggling slightly in the palm of his hand made his heart feel hot. "Yun Qi, let's go and find the thunder attribute weapon you mentioned."
Being used to being led, he didn't show much disgust, but let Xiao Changfeng lead him into the powerful venue.
There was noise everywhere, they thought they were early, but when they came in, they found that the venue didn't look like it just started!Exchangers of different age groups stood in front of the scattered booths, bargaining one after another.
"It seems that the scale this time is not small." After seeing the scene in the venue, Li Yunqi couldn't help but exclaimed.In his impression, the exchange meeting would not have such a large scale, unless... it was jointly organized by several families!
"Walk around and pick things. There is security in this kind of exchange meeting jointly organized by the family. As long as you don't want to exchange, no one will force you."
This may be the advantage of having an exchange meeting held by a powerful family. As long as the family is strong enough, no one can insist on the exchange meeting held by this family!Besides, most of the people who will come to the exchange meeting are single supernatural beings, and those supernatural beings from real big families are not really short of these cultivation resources.Unless something important is missing like Qu Jian, it is still possible to come to the exchange meeting.As for Yan Chuan's kind, it belongs to the elders of the family who let them come out to see the world.
The time of the exchange meeting is uncertain, so whether you can meet it depends on luck. If you are lucky, you may be able to catch up. If you are not lucky... then I am sorry, and I will come again later.
"Shh!"
A screeching sound of brakes made many people who just got out of the car show a little disgusted expression.But they also know that they can't just blame others because of this. After all, who knows if the person in the car is the young master or lady of a big family?
It's finally here... Exhaustion and excitement are intertwined on the immature face, making it difficult to see whether the young man is happy or powerless.Patting his pocket again with his palm, the smile on his face could hardly be concealed.After taking a deep breath, he quickly pulled out the car key.
In fact, Qu Tan was planning to come early, but who would have thought that the traffic jam on the road would be so serious?Every car is moving forward at a slow speed. If you are not careful, you may not be able to find that the car is really moving.At that moment, Qu Tan had the urge to abandon the car and leave, but he could bear it when he thought about how this car would have to drive him out of Wufeng City.
Finally, just when he couldn't bear it anymore, the traffic jam situation finally improved, so he seized such a small gap, and Qu Tan rushed out from the crowd of traffic jams. worth it.Get out of the car, close the door, lock the car, all in one go.Just when he stepped into the venue full of confidence, the same expression that Li Yunqi had shown before also appeared on his face.
sluggish……
"There are too many people, right?" With so many people, where should I put my stall?He Tan scratched his head in this troublesome question.
Li Yunqi and Xiao Changfeng, who were a few steps ahead of Qu Tan, had no plans to set up a stall at first, and if they had no space, they would have no space, and they didn't care about these things, but even so, they were also very troubled.Because they didn't find anyone who sold mutated lightning-type weapons...
"In that case, are we here in vain?" Looking at the stall full of medicinal herbs, even Xiao Changfeng was a little disappointed.Along the way, I really didn't see any weapons for sale, let alone weapons with mutated lightning attributes.
A little tired, Li Yunqi half leaned on Xiao Changfeng's body, Xiao Changfeng didn't mind, and took advantage of the situation, half of Li Yunqi fell into his hands. "It's not in vain. Even if we don't have weapons, we can still buy some rune spells for backup. In fact, I guessed most of it if we don't have weapons. Even if it's an exchange meeting, this kind of thunder-attribute weapon will not be easy to find. We can't find it." It's all down to luck to find it."
"Then let's continue shopping."
"Ah."
In the venue, some people were smiling, some were disappointed, some were happy and some were sad. Whether you can find something you like is actually a matter of luck.Wan Shan hid the light in his eyes, and when he turned his head again, no one could see the deep meaning in it.
Wan Shan smiled and raised the wine glass in his hand, and lightly clinked a glass with a person of about the same age nearby.The crisp "ding" sound indicates many things, one of which is to celebrate the successful start of the exchange meeting.
"Patriarch Wanshan is really amazing. He actually thought of the idea of several big families co-organizing an exchange meeting. I really admire it. This time we made a lot of money just for the entrance fee! Hahahaha..."
"The things this time are really good, and there are still many rune masters attracted here."
"It's just... I don't know if the Spirit Gathering Cauldron will appear."
When everyone heard the words, they all turned their eyes to the person who said those words.This person is also one of several family heads who co-organized the exchange meeting. I didn't expect that even he was interested in whether the Juling Cauldron would appear or not.
One of the several Patriarchs smiled and said: "Who knows, but just a Gathering Cauldron that can be used in alchemy and rune spells, why should Patriarch Shen be worried? Hahahaha..."
Shen Yu smiled dumbly, and replied: "I've only heard some rumors, and I'm not very interested in the Gathering Spirit Cauldron. Our Shen family is not an alchemy family, so why do we want that thing?"
Perhaps Shen Yu's tone was really too indifferent, so the Patriarchs who were drinking with him did not hold on to this matter, but talked about some trivial matters.
The purpose of holding this exchange meeting is naturally not for the small entrance fee, these family owners are very smart, if it is just for a small profit, they will not be willing to put down the family important business and come here to drink and chat.In fact, the deep meaning behind these patriarchs is to rely on this exchange meeting to enhance their family's influence in Wufeng City and even other provinces and cities.Things like influence cannot be improved by money, so they chose a roundabout way to let everyone in the supernatural world know their family from the side.
As long as the name goes out, the family will naturally not lack fresh blood. Under the virtuous circle, the development of their family will only become smoother and smoother.Under the balance of the several family masters, they decided to adopt Wan Shan's suggestion and organize an exchange meeting with several families. In this way, the scale of the exchange meeting will be completely increased, and it will not cause any losses to the major families. .
Moreover, there is an unwritten rule in this exchange meeting, that is, if the organizer trades, then he can enjoy a [-]% or even [-]% discount.This is also a good advantage for families hosting exchange meetings.
"Everyone, I saw an apprentice of an acquaintance. I'm afraid I'm going to be excused for a while. I'm so sorry. I'll punish you with three drinks when I come back." Wan Shan, who was still wandering around before, saw a familiar After becoming a teenager, I had no intention of staying here any longer, so I hurriedly said goodbye.
