Chapter 149 Lava Beast

Frowning slightly, Mrs. Bai quickly made a decision: "Everyone, I'm sorry, I haven't been here before. Now I can only take one step at a time and take the rightmost path."

If you don't have a choice, just make a random choice. A group of people fight their way onto the bridge, and are faced with several monkeys with flaming bodies.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

Fighting is inevitable, but fortunately, the Bingyan Tuanzi behind them is no longer pursuing them, and everyone only needs to fight forward with all their strength.

I easily climbed to the second cliff and saw four new suspension bridges...

"Continue?" Everyone looked at Madam Bai.

"Continue!" He gritted his teeth and now he could only bite the bullet.

Their situation is very embarrassing. Although this is the current city lord and has been in and out of this place many times, this elven cemetery is not her back garden.

She still had strength at that time and could feel the hostility or kindness in every area. She did not dare to enter without permission.

The sea of ​​​​fire in front of her was a place she had never explored before, and she might run into some trouble later.

"Do you need help?" Seeing this group of people walking around with their heads buried, Xu Jiang couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.

Mrs. Bai had no time to pay attention to him now, and waved her hand for Shang Wen to dismiss, while Shang Wen glanced at her impatiently.

"No need, just follow the command."

"Are you sure you don't want my help?" Xu Jiang asked again without being annoyed.

"I said no! Your mission is just to follow up with us."

This woman is really attractive, I like her.

Xu Jiang smiled slightly, turned around and raised his eyebrows at Ying Xiaoxiao.

Asked: "My dear team leader, how much does our team usually get paid for one attendance?"

Ying Xiaoxiao's keen sixth sense for making money accurately captured Xu Jiang's deep meaning.

His eyes lit up and he replied: "The business has been good recently, about 1,000 isocrystals at a time. What's up? Do you have new business?"

"Yes, there are 5 of us, and we will calculate it as 5 times later."

…

After some repairs, Shang Wen asked to start again.

Isn't it just a sea of ​​​​fire, leaving marks on the ground, so that if you encounter some kind of wall-breaking maze, you won't be afraid of getting lost.

Unfortunately, confidence is good, but reality is cruel.

This place is very big, and every suspension bridge connects to other cliffs. Thanks to the experts that Madam Bai invited, all the fire monsters they encountered on the road were easily killed by them, and there was no danger.

But this way out has still not been found.

Or if the suspension bridge breaks, looking at the terrifying sea of ​​​​fire below, you dare not force the crossing;

Or they will directly encounter a dead end. In anger, they smash the stone wall and crash into the monster's lair. Hundreds of fire monkeys pour out, and a battle is inevitable.

After the brutal fighting, the team was forced to stop for repairs, and morale was visibly low.

Xu Jiang was careless and took out a bunch of picnic tools and started barbecue on the spot. Seventeen groups sat around and even invited Pace over.

The atmosphere was very harmonious, and it felt like I was on an outing, without any sense of tension.

Lao Zeng came over in a funny way, patted Xu Jiang on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you are too ambitious. You may have to go on a journey later. Just eat some dry food and have a barbecue?"

Xu Jiang glanced at Lao Zeng. He was still melancholy just now, asking someone to be the answerer. Isn't it already there?

Holding the chicken wings in his hand, he raised his chin towards the command and research team in the distance.

"Look at them, they have been immersed in drawing the map for half an hour, but they haven't achieved anything at all. Even if I eat and drink enough, they can't find a way out."

Lao Zeng didn't understand either. He scratched his head and replied uncertainly: "It should be no problem. After all, they are all experienced and strong people."

"No problem? The problem is big." Xu Jiang smiled disdainfully, touched Xiaozhen's head, and asked: "Come on, Xiaozhen, tell me, do you think those people can find a solution?"

Xiao Zhen raised his head, glanced at the people in the distance, and replied expressionlessly: "A bunch of melon skins."

After scolding, he lowered his head again and continued the barbecue competition with the little ghost.

"Look, even my little Zhen knows that you can't find a way out if you go around like this, and your efforts are in vain."

Xu Jiang's voice was not loud, but the people present were all experts, so his words were naturally heard by several people in the distance.

Mrs. Bai shook her head slightly and said she didn't need to pay attention, but Shang Wen had a bad temper.

She and Bai Ling were sisters, and knowing that Bai Ling's Silent Hill ticket was taken away by Xu Jiang, she didn't give Xu Jiang a good look all the way.

Now that I heard that Xu Jiang was acting strangely, I naturally felt dissatisfied.

He stood up and asked Xu Jiang, "What do you mean by that? Everyone is trying to find a way. If you don't want to help, don't make sarcastic remarks there."

"A sarcastic statement? I'm just telling you the truth. It doesn't matter if you don't want to hear it. You are the one wasting time anyway."

There is a crisis in Silent City, and their time is very tight. Listening to Xu Jiang's tone, could he have discovered something?

Mrs. Bai quickly stood up and asked, "Xu Jiang, have you found any clues?"

"No." Xu Jiang twisted his head and continued to roast chicken wings with Xiaozhen, leaving everyone confused.

You were so steadfast just now, but now you are rejecting it so completely? Something is not right!

Madam Bai looked at Ying Xiaoxiao who was standing aside.

Ying Xiaoxiao has a soft temperament, and she looks like a gentle big sister at first glance, so she quickly came out to smooth things over.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Bai, although I agreed to your employment. But Xu Jiang's job is just to follow the team closely, and I can't move him."

One plays the bad guy, the other plays the bad guy, the coordination between the seventeen groups is really flawless.

Indeed, considering that Xu Jiang was a mecha master, when Madam Bai issued the employment invitation, she just asked Ying Xiaoxiao to bring Xu Jiang here, and let them do what they wanted without holding back.

But now, it seems that Xu Jiang's tone has miraculous effects?

Anyway, there is no good solution at hand, so it would be good to ask for advice.

Mrs. Bai continued: "Xu Jiang, if you know any clues, please tell us. Any clues will do."

Xu Jiang said without looking back: "No objection, you don't need my help anyway."

"I don't need your help? How do I start with this?"

"Starting with your guard captain, I asked her several times if she wanted to help, but she always told me to stay alone. I will stay here now and don't ask me for my opinion."

I looked at Xu Jiang, who turned away from work, and then at Shang Wen, whose face turned dark. Why did it feel like two young men were angry? People around him were a little helpless.

However, as a companion of Group 17, Sha Tu knew Xu Jiang very well.

With Xu Jiang's cunning, he has already passed the stage of anger, and now it is time to pay attention to making money to support his family.

Angry? It's just to make more money.

He stood up and helped comfort him: "Xu Jiang, we have been here for a long time. Do us a favor and finish it as soon as possible."

"No help. My mission this time is just to be in a daze. I don't have anything else to do."

"Then let's give a new task to the head office. This time it's a help task."

"A new task? Okay! You need to pay more."

…

Two white faces combined with one black face from Xu Jiang, the trick was finally over. The ultimate goal was to make more money and stop working if there is no money.

The bad appearance almost caused Shang Wen to fight back again, but luckily Madam Bai caught her in time, it was just money, as long as she could pass this place, nothing else mattered.

"Okay, I'll pay more to hire you. Now you can talk."

"That's not possible. The money hasn't been negotiated yet. You can just let me help. It's 5,000 heterocrystals."

"What!! 5000 heterocrystals?"

Not to mention Mrs. Bai, even the mercenaries on the side exclaimed.

"Hire a dozen of us for only 3,000 exotic crystals. You kid is really a big talker!"

It is true that for a mission that lasts several days and involves multiple teams, hiring a small team for 3,000 exotic crystals is already pretty good.

Xu Jiang's answer was 5,000, which was indeed a bit excessive.

Even Xiao Zhen beside him couldn't help but say something fair: "You made a mistake in your calculation. It's 6 times. There's also Xiao Hei."

That's right! I calculated it wrong, it was six times more correct. There is a mysterious little black guy at home who should have 6,000 exotic crystals.

It seemed like he was going to change his strategy. Xu Jiang lowered his head and thought.

Mrs. Bai was naturally dissatisfied and felt that Xu Jiang was suspected of blackmail when the lion opened his mouth.

Just when I was thinking of lowering Xu Jiang's price to stop him from pushing the envelope, Xu Jiang relented first.

"How about this? I'll help you find the exit from this area. Just give me 1,000 heterocrystals."

From 5,000 to 1,000, is this flexibility so great?
