"I met that guy very early on."

As autumn is approaching, the square in the dusk seems to have been infected with a cold atmosphere, which makes the streets that were originally deserted because the crowds dispersed become even more desolate. Walking on such a road, although it makes

Duan Qing, who had just experienced several escapes, could feel a little relieved, but for him, hiding was actually not a difficult thing to do. In contrast, he actually hated what he had experienced for a long time.

A person's loneliness is just like he is tired of the endless pursuit.

Fortunately, the players who couldn't find anyone seemed to have withdrawn. Fortunately... I still had companions.

"Remember the mission I mentioned once about searching for imperial spies? The one who beat me half to death." Nan Tieshan looked up at the fiery red sky and sighed with some nostalgia: "After that incident

, the principality seemed to have decided that I was not dead, so they sent some people to ask me about the situations I had encountered. Later, they may have thought that I was quite powerful, so they gave me some rewards and let me rest in peace and recover."

"The fat man came here for a period of time. He later told me that if I had any problems, I could go to him and he could help me solve it."

The big man in black armor turned over and over, looking at his fists, and shook his head in amusement: "Now that I think about it, I was already in the trap at that time... Hey, are you listening?"

"Ah? Ah, of course." From a certain direction on the street, a familiar busking figure withdrew his gaze. Duan Qing quickly nodded and responded: "Don't tell me about your mission to recruit the Nosier people.

, he also gave it to you..."

"That... that's not that." Nan Tieshan laughed: "That's the military headquarters of the principality... Well, thinking about it this way, it seems that it does have something to do with him..."

"Why, are you remembering his trap again?"

"Ah hahaha, no way, even though he seems to have a bad temper, that guy is still relatively reliable...don't you think so?"

"I don't know, anyway, I have already told him." Duan Qing lowered his head and said, "As for what happens next..."

Conflict, war, destruction... Countless pictures flashed through his mind, as if they were a group photo of some possibilities he had imagined. But after a moment, he shook his head and dismissed these unnecessary associations and started over.

Analyzing the voice coming from his ears: "...But I didn't expect that you are still a powerful guy. No wonder those informants have your name in their minds..."

"I'm so powerful, shouldn't you know it all on Falling Star Mountain?" Duan Qing said with a smile, "It's their turn to tell you?"

"Stop being such a bastard! Then why didn't I see you participating in the competition?"

"Uh... special circumstances, special circumstances."

"Bah, what a special situation, it's just a lack of strength..."

Duan Qing touched his nose and did not answer, because he also felt that the big man's words made sense.

"But these are not problems! As long as we come to Tania, we will be a family! From now on, I will protect you. Although it is not as good as a big guild like Jianghu, I will definitely let you walk around here. Who can

If he doesn’t accept it... we’ll beat him up! Hahahaha!”

"Come on, didn't your brother get beaten up just now?"

"Uh... special circumstances, special circumstances, don't worry about these details... By the way, you are so powerful, do you want to join our Iron Fist Gang?"

"I have a guild, doesn't that fat guy live in a guild?"

"Then what is the Fool's Adventure Group? What is that? I've never heard of it. What are you doing in a guild like that? Can the leader give you a salary? Can he give you a bonus? Can he drink a lot of wine? Do you want to eat some meat?”

"No." Duan Qing said expressionlessly, "I still owe others money."

"So the less developed the guild is, the more it likes to plot in these places, without any pattern at all!" Nan Tieshan puffed out his chest and waved his hand: "Why are you still staying there? Just run away quickly. If he Don't dare to let people go, it depends on labor and management..."

"Hey, hey, don't be honest for now, do you know how much I owe?"

"How much? We'll pay it back for you! The Iron Fist Gang can still afford the money..."

"one million."

A girl's voice suddenly came from in front of the two of them at the intersection of the street, choking off the words of Nan Tieshan who was chatting incessantly. Still wearing the black leather armor, the girl put her hands on her hips angrily and used some kind of Duan Qing looked at this place without even daring to look directly: "Okay, I've been out for a long time. Not only did I get into trouble, but I also wanted to rebel, right?"

"Uh... no, no, it's impossible." Duan Qing hurriedly took two steps forward and forced a smile at the same time: "How could I withdraw from the membership? No matter what, I am still a member, right? How can I be so willing to leave... "

"Hmph!" Mengzhu tilted her nose and stepped forward with her slightly slender legs due to the design of the leather armor: "Then let me ask you, what did you do today?"

"Um, um...didn't you go on a mission?"

"Do the task? Have you finished it? Where is the money?"

"Uh, that, that..."

"I knew it!"

The girl stretched out her hand and pulled off Duan Qing's temporary cloak to hide her identity: "You ran away early without making any money, and ended up getting into trouble! You just like running around, don't you? Let Sister Liushang and Sister Ninglan are useless to you... If I had known this, I should have asked you to run errands with me!"

"Don't, am I just playing a long game to catch the big fish?" Duan Qing jumped back and forth to explain: "Believe me, this mission will definitely make a lot of money in the end..."

"Earn a lot of money? How much can you earn? One million?"

"Well, it's not good now..."

"That's not the same thing!"

"Hey, let go, let go, it hurts..."

The big man in black armor just stared dumbfoundedly at the "powerful" man he was recruiting before. He was submissively taken care of by the girl who suddenly appeared, and he didn't even have the intention to fight back. He moved and almost dislocated his joint. His chin seemed to want something, but facing these two men and women who were quarreling with each other on the street as if no one was watching, this man who had always been quick to talk didn't know where to interrupt: "That..."

"Are you...his leader?"

"It's the captain!"

The girl replied angrily: "There are only five people in our adventure group, so I can only be the captain."

Looking at Duan Qing's helpless face next to him, Nan Tieshan's mouth became wider again.

"who is he?"

"Nan Tieshan, leader of the Iron Fist Gang." Duan Qing rubbed his arm and replied, "The one I talked to you about before."

"Oh?" The girl looked at him sideways: "That means...their guild is very powerful?"

"No, no, I didn't mean it!"

Duan Qing, who sensed something was wrong, quickly shook his head and said: "How can he be as good as our Fool's Adventure Team? Look at the harmony and love in our team, the atmosphere is harmonious, the distribution is fair, and there are benefits every day, especially our team leader, Ying Ming

Divine martial arts, wise and brave, that and that... versatile, beautiful as a flower..."

"How can you be so good..." Mengzhu blushed, and then whispered: "Don't think that flattering you will make me forgive you."

"Okay, okay, don't forgive, don't forgive." Looking at the eyes around him, Duan Qing hurriedly whispered: "How about we change places? Look at so many people watching..."

"Um...Okay, I'll settle the score with you somewhere else."

The girl thought for a moment, then nodded, then glanced at Nan Tieshan again, turned around and walked back in the direction she came from. Slightly slumping her shoulders, Duan Qing turned back to Nan Tieshan and showed a helpless expression:

"...Let's go, President Nanda."

"You..." The big man in black armor didn't know what to say anymore: "You...she..."

"It's okay, she is just such a girl." Duan Qing smiled: "I have talked with her about Falling Star Mountain before, so...we are all our own."

"Uh, you and her are...?"

"A member of the group. She is the leader and I am a member..."

"No, no, no, what I want to ask is... Who are you and her in real life?"

"in reality?"

Looking at the girl who walked out for a while and found that no one was following her, she turned around and shouted, a smile escaped from the corner of Duan Qing's mouth.

"In real life... we don't know each other yet."

************************************

"Do you really owe her a million?"

"It's a joke, it's a joke, please don't take it seriously...hiss!"

In Tania City, in the Walia Tavern, Duan Qing and Mengzhu were sitting face to face with Nan Tieshan on both sides of a certain wine table, chatting casually while having dinner here. Although this place

It seems that there is no civilian dignity there, and the guests don't seem to come as much as that place. However, the atmosphere here is still very lively, maybe even more lively - the tables are placed randomly around the bar, and there are people talking to each other everywhere.

The men who were drinking together, some of whom were already red-faced soldiers, had already taken off their coats, and were quarreling loudly and laughing with their companions around them. I don’t know if it was because they drank too much, or because they were chatting with each other.

Endless topics.

According to Nan Tieshan's law, this place where he often comes to drink is the Tania branch of the Warriors' Home.

Withdrawing her hand that was secretly twisting the other person's arm, the girl frowned and looked at the crowd around the hall. Her other hand unconsciously stirred the drink in the glass in front of her, as if she was hesitating about something - according to her previous method, she

After all, she is now the leader of a group. In line with the attitude of being responsible and promoting the signature of this adventure group, she must pay attention to the etiquette of negotiating with the other party's president. She also has to abide by some basic routines, so when the other party mentions that everyone should be together

While having a meal, she maintained her majesty as a leader without hesitation, agreed, and followed the other party's choice to come to this place.

Although I regret it now, but...

"Ahem, cough...listen, you want to poach members of our group, don't you?"

"Well……"

Deliberately pretending to be mature, Duan Qing on the side couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, Nan Tieshan showed a dumbfounded expression: "Just now... I didn't understand the situation, so I was a little offended. I really can't help it..."

"I don't care about him at all."

Staring at Duan Qing next to him, Mengzhu said as if nothing had happened: "As long as you can pay off his one million debt, I won't be able to consider it..."

"Huh?" Nan Tieshan glanced at Duan Qing with a grimace again, and then hesitated for a while amid the noise around him: "That that..."
