After staying in Fengya City for half a day, Su Chen finally received an team already has five people, but at the moment, they are still recruiting. If we wait, we may be able to ask other teams for help. But Su Chen thought about it and didn't hesitate much. In this team of five, there are two middle-aged warriors, who appear to be in their forties. A man and a woman, they seemed to be senior and junior brothers and sisters. But to Su Chen and the other three, they were both much older. This woman's name is Tian Lan, and she is the strongest member of the team. As for the other middle-aged man, his name is Duan Hanchuan. He is said to be very capable, but he does nothing in the team. Eat and sleep, sleep and eat.
But if you want to keep Tian Lan, you can only take Duan Hanchuan with you. However, Tian Lan also said that her senior brother was not interested in this competition spot. Apart from these two, the other three looked very young. The captain of the team is named Dongfang Yong, who is a relatively kind person. During the conversation, he spoke more rationally. He is not the kind of person who speaks wildly and arrogantly. Someone with whom I can have a deep conversation and communicate. Su Chen still recognized such a captain, at least he was willing to listen to his advice. After some discussion, Su Chen agreed to join the team. The next thing to be resolved is the registration fee. Either send money to the Jinjia Kingdom, or go and kill the monsters and help the Jinjia Kingdom solve some of the troubles on the border. It is impossible for Su Chen to carry a large amount of gold and silver with him. Once confirmed, the path of killing monsters will be taken. Rested for half a day. On the second day, Captain Dongfang Yong gathered everyone to go to the wilderness. After setting off, Su Chen realized that there were only four people. Beside him, another companion smiled helplessly. "Brother Su, do you think those two masters will come to help us solve the registration fee problem? We can only rely on ourselves for these. Others will only make a move when they are competing for a spot.”
No wonder Tian Lan would commit herself to joining this young man's team. Moving forward, Dongfang Yong led the four people and walked towards the southeast. This line is the most troublesome line of defense for the Jinjia Kingdom. After landing at a location, the three began to prepare for an ambush. This shouldn't be the first time for the three of them to come to this location. The ambush location should be a location they have used many times. “Brother Su, please hide inside first. If you were standing in that position, the monster would have seen you long ago. I won’t come to the ambush area again.” Dongfang Yong called Su Chen in a low voice and asked Su Chen to come over and hide over him. Judging from the entire terrain, the place where the three of them were hiding was indeed a good place to hide. But Su Chen has already discovered many traces of monsters. Several golden monsters have been here before, and some even stayed for a long time. “Brother Dongfang, let’s change our ambush location. This location has been targeted by the monster." Hearing Su Chen's words, the three of them couldn't help but frown. As soon as I arrived, I started making suggestions and requests. It is obvious that Dongfang Yong and the other three do not particularly agree with this. “Brother Su, we have gained a lot from this position. If there really was a problem, it should have happened a long time ago. How could I wait until now and drag it out until now?" One of them spoke quite politely, trying to persuade Su Chen not to make trouble. The other person next to him spoke with some joking and teasing tone. “Isn’t it better that we are being targeted by the monster? Just waiting for them to come, and kill them one by one. It would be better if more monsters came to watch us, so that we can gather all the monsters we need to kill in one day." Dongfang Yong next to him patted him gently. Signal him to be more careful with his words and not to be sarcastic all the time. After hesitating for a moment, captain Dongfang Yong turned his head and looked at Su Chen.
“Brother Su, this location is actually very clever. There is very complete cover on three sides, and there are still some gaps for us to observe the front. This kind of place is indeed a good place to ambush and slay demons. If we didn't come here and other people knew about it, they would definitely rush here to ambush us." After hearing Dongfang Yong's explanation, Su Chen nodded. “I understand what Brother Dongfang said, and I also know that this place is good. But this place has been discovered by monsters. Monsters are not that stupid. Monsters above the Golden Monster level will have no problem dealing with ambushes. There had been fighting here, and there had been a strong smell of blood. The monsters only need to smell the scent to become extremely alert." Su Chen's explanation seemed to make the other two even more impatient. Look at Dongfang Yong. "Captain, who are you looking for? Are you here to help or to be a burden?" After one person finished speaking, the other person followed suit. "I understand what you mean. To put it bluntly, you are just afraid and don't dare to face those monsters, right? No need to find weird reasons.” After the two of them finished talking, Dongfang Yong seemed to agree with their opinions this time. "Brother Su, lying in ambush here is the safest method. We have the advantage of terrain and can strike first. Half of the golden monsters will be destroyed by one blow from us. It will be easier to kill them then." Dongfang Yong's attitude and tone were much better. But the meaning of their words is actually the same, they all advise Su Chen to respond according to their plan. To the three of them, Su Chen's evasion and refusal really seemed to be due to fear. I don’t dare to deal with or face those monsters. “Brother Dongfang, you are hiding here now, not only can you not kill the monster. And being stared at by some monsters, he became a little tired.
Instead, they attack suddenly, thus putting themselves in danger." Su Chen's explanation and persuasion seemed to have little effect. The one who spoke more radically even stood up directly. "Didn't they say that we were being watched by a monster? I, Xu Rufeng, am very brave. Tell me, where are those monsters that are staring at us? You tell me, I'll go over and take a look. Look at what this monster staring at us looks like." Xu Rufeng just looked at Su Chen like that, he didn't really want to go up and take a look. I just said these words to provoke Su Chen. Upon hearing this, Su Chen pointed directly to the northeast. "Two hundred steps in this direction, behind that bush. Just be careful when you go there and be vigilant at all times." Hearing this, Xu Rufeng seemed to become even angrier. Holding his spear, he actually headed towards the northeast. Dongfang Yong quickly stood up and advised: "Brother Xu, there is no need to argue and fight, we" "Brother Dongfang, you have seen it too. If I don’t prove it to him today, he will not listen at all. After being slapped in the face this time, he will listen to arrangements and instructions when encountering other things in the future. By taking care of these small things like this, it will be more beneficial to us.” Dongfang Yong's face was also full of helplessness, and he couldn't help but look at Su Chen. Sighed At this moment, Xu Rufeng was already moving towards the northeast step by step. He also saw the bushes that Su Chen mentioned. A messy pile of bushes with some buds already sprouting on them. Spring is approaching, and these plants that have been dry all winter seem to be coming back to life. Xu Rulin was a little worried, but he still had some courage. And there was really nothing special about this pile of bushes, no trace of any monsters. Although the snow has melted a lot, it is not yet full spring, and many monsters are still hiding. After walking a few steps forward, Xu Rufeng had a slight smile on his face. He was just about to turn around and shout at Su Chen a few times, and then scold Su Chen again. Before he could even utter a word, a golden monster with earthy brown skin jumped out from the bushes.
Sharp claws and bloody mouth rushed towards Xu Rufeng. Luckily he didn't get too close. And because of Su Chen's reminder just now, he was still a little cautious. He ran back, and Dongfang Yong immediately supported him with a sword. Facing a golden monster, the few people were not too afraid. But the sudden appearance of this golden monster did give Xu Rufeng a fright. Seeing the reinforcements, the Golden Demon quickly fled without further pursuit. Su Chen was waiting for it when it was about to escape, and killed it with one knife. Then he walked up to the three people holding the monster's head. Seeing this scene, Dongfang Yong and the other two looked at each other in surprise. It was said before that Su Chen was stubborn. After all the trouble, they are the ones who are stubborn in the end. He also said something about wanting to slap Su Chen in the face. If I were any more careless, I would be injured by the golden monster just as I walked past. “If we want to set up an ambush, we have to change our position. There is a strong smell of blood here, and monsters are naturally sensitive to this smell. Normally, it doesn’t just pass by here casually.” Su Chen's words remained the same as before. He did not continue to ridicule anyone just because his words were verified. Seeing this, the three of them nodded. When he looked at Su Chen again, there was a bit more recognition on his face. Su Chen has always had this kind of personality. If there is no major hatred or grudge, these minor conflicts can give the other party a way out. Su Chen will give instructions and arrangements for the rest of the journey. Xu Rufeng, who always spoke directly and angrily, did not say anything in rebuttal now. Su Chen could actually see that when he gave some arrangements, he still had doubts. But despite his doubts, Xu Rufeng still kept his thoughts to himself. If there is anything, let’s wait until the facts are confirmed. In comparison, Dongfang Yong trusts Su Chen more.
Su Chen's performance just now was enough to make him recognize and approve. Su Chen's arrangements and layout were confirmed within two hours. Xu Rufeng's doubts were also completely shattered. The ambush point arranged by Su Chen looked very ordinary. In their opinion, it was a position where they could not even wait for the monster to appear. They also dug a hole, not very deep, and covered it with dead branches and leaves. Such a simple trap, how can it be used to deal with monsters? But the monsters just fell for it and died when they were fooled. Xu Rufeng, who originally had some dissatisfaction and doubts in his heart, is now completely convinced. In less than a day, three golden monsters were killed, and the number of big monsters exceeded fifteen! For the three of them, it was considered a great fortune if they could kill a golden monster within three or four days. This is also why they are superstitious about the previous position. Because of the ambush there, Dongfang Yong led them to easily kill several big monsters and a golden monster. So let them feel that it is a Feng Shui treasure land. It's a bit like waiting for something to happen. It’s just that most monsters are smart. If you still want to use that location for an ambush, you have to deal with the smell first. Turn over the soil around to cover up the bloody smell. As it is now, that place is absolutely meaningless and it is impossible to ambush there again. It was getting dark, so everyone left first. In fact, dealing with monsters at night may yield greater rewards. But these three people seemed a little uncomfortable dealing with it at night. It's difficult to deal with those monsters during the day, let alone at night. Su Chen didn't force it, there was still enough time. There are still nine days left before the competition where the Jinjia Kingdom will compete for a place. Together with Dongfang Yong and the other two, they had already killed some monsters before. With some accumulation, there is hope of achieving something in the remaining nine days. Of course, with Su Chen’s joining now, it will definitely be achieved. On the way back, Su Chen deliberately chatted with the three of them.
After what happened today, the three of them have become somewhat convinced of Su Chen. As the team leader, Dongfang Yong is not the kind of person who is paranoid, crazy, or arrogant. Some team leaders can't stand seeing their subordinates perform well. I was afraid that if I stole their prestige, no one would listen to what I said in the future. Dongfang Yong didn't seem to mind any of this. He basically gave the command of the scene directly to Su Chen and let Su Chen make the arrangements. He showed respect to Su Chen, and Su Chen also respected him as the captain. During the chat, Su Chen was mainly inquiring about the martial arts strength of this area. Judging from Xu Rufeng’s own description, he is now at the fourth stage of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. But when Su Chen saw him take action, his strength seemed to be around the initial stage of the seventh level. Therefore, there are still big differences in the judgment of martial arts strength here. There are many differences in judging compared to the martial arts system in the region where the Great Zhou is located. However, in specific terms, the martial arts methods used are still very similar. The Tao is the same, but there are many differences in the words used to express it. Seeing the three of them take action today, Su Chen was still unsure about the strength of other warriors. The fourth stage of the Heavenly Spirit Realm is almost the initial stage of the seventh level. So what level of strength is considered here? That Tian Lan seems to be at the King of Heaven level, so what level of warrior is she here? Su Chen still wasn't sure what level he, a warrior who was almost at the fifth level, had reached. There is still time and plenty of opportunities to understand. Return to Windy Cliff City. Su Chen then discovered that everyone's residence was outside Fengya City, and they had set up some tents. "Brother Su, you are new to Fengya City, so you may not be used to it yet. Everything else in Fengya City is not expensive, but accommodation is very expensive. The cost of one night's stay could probably provide us with food for more than half a month." Dongfang Yong smiled and explained to Su Chen the reason and why this situation occurred. Fengya City is adjacent to the wilderness and is severely infiltrated by monsters, so there are often troubles. Like this, the warriors are forced to live outside the city, which becomes the city's natural defense front line. This was achieved simply by raising the cost of accommodation.
All I can say is that the mayors of Fengya City are quite smart. (End of this chapter)
