Chapter 37 Team Up
"Oh? What's the obstacle?" Qin Shuang's expression moved slightly. Normally, going to Huagong Mountain to get some branches of the Tie Liexiang Tree, for a master whose cultivation level has reached the late stage of the true vein and is about to enter the peak of the true vein, it should be easy for him to go back to the palm of his hand.
But Wu Shankang actually said that there was an obstacle, and he also needed to find someone to form a team, and he would pay a huge amount of reward for it, which shows that this obstacle was definitely not just a little bit as he said.
"That's it." Wu Shan Kang said solemnly: "I found out that in recent years, a mountain village has appeared on Huagong Mountain, and a group of bandits gathered. There were more than a hundred people, plundering everywhere, harming one side. The people nearby were unbearable and complained!"
Speaking of this, he paused, looked at Qin Shuang, and continued: "Based on the information I have collected during this period, it is certain that among this group of bandits, there are only one or two who have a cultivation level above the early stage of the True Vein, and the highest among them is only the middle stage of the True Vein. Most of the minions are in the early stage of the meridian practice or the middle stage of the meridian practice. With my current strength, I can naturally suppress the thieves with the highest cultivation level. I am afraid that there are too many people and it is impossible to beat four hands when fighting with two fists, so I need to arrange tasks and ask for help. By the way, Junior Brother Qin, I don't know that your current cultivation level is..."
Qin Shuang thought for a while and replied: "I am in the late stage of my pulse training."
He concealed the truth that he was already at the peak of meridian cultivation, in order not to attract wind too much. After all, he is not old now and has just become a formal disciple. Normally, it is impossible to have a high level of cultivation.
If you truthfully explain that you are at the peak of meridian cultivation, it will attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives, it will definitely not be a good thing for him.
What's more, the old thief Lei Min is still worried about Guanghan Jue, and maybe he is still staring at him in secret!
Wu Shankang nodded, thinking that the cultivation level of Junior Brother Qin was similar to what he guessed. He had previously guessed that judging from Qin Shuang's age, his cultivation level should be at most in the middle and late stages of meridian training, so he did not have any doubts about Qin Shuang's words and said, "Well, this is not bad in the late stage of meridian training, which means Junior Brother Qin's talent is still good."
Just after he finished speaking, he heard Wen Wenyan next to him whisper softly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed through his eyes; Qu Huijun did not make any sound, but he also had a smile on his face.
Wu Shankang could hear it clearly, glared at Wen Wenyan, and suggested that he stop talking. Qin Shuang knew in his heart that the other party looked down on his low cultivation level, but pretended not to hear it and made a thoughtful expression.
As if he was worried that Qin Shuang would have any wavering thoughts, Wu Shankang quickly added: "Junior Brother Qin, you don't have to worry. You probably don't have to take action against this group of bandits. At that time, Wu and Wen Wen Wenyan and Junior Sister Qu Huijun will take care of them. You just need to skip the formation aside."
Qin Shuang smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why should I bring me into a team with my senior brother?"
Wu Shankang quickly explained: "My junior brother doesn't know that there is more obstacles on Huagong Mountain than this. The more important thing is in the back mountain where Tielie Xiang Tree grows. There is a poisonous miasma, birds and beasts are extinct, and people are hard to get close to. And I don't know how many unknown poisons there are, so this is where Junior Brother Qin is really needed."
Qin Shuang suddenly realized and said, "So that's it. Senior brother is worried that if he gets poisoned, I can start treating him immediately."
Wu Shankang smiled and said, "Yes, that's right, so the junior brother is the most indispensable member of us!"
Qin Shuang thought for a while and asked, "If this is the case, why can't we bypass the bandits' nests and go directly to the back mountain?"
Wu Shankang explained: "It is impossible to completely bypass the bandit's nest on three sides of Huagong Mountain, but we can go there overnight and try to avoid the eyes and ears of the bandits while the night is dark, and sneak past them. If you can do nothing, don't do anything, so as not to miss the problem."
Qin Shuang said oh, expressed his understanding, and then began to ponder.
Wu Shankang saw Qin Shuang pondering without saying anything, his eyes flashed. He didn't know what he was thinking. He thought that the junior brother was hesitating whether to give up because he felt it was too difficult. He said again: "Junior brother, don't look at this trip as dangerous as it seems, but in fact it is not a big deal. We have experienced it in the past, and there are many situations that are more dangerous than this trip. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are in danger. Think about it, this trip can not only be rewarded with 5,000 points of credit, but also find rare treasures like Tie Liexiang. Isn't it worth our risk?"
In fact, Wu Shankang didn't know that he had misunderstood, and Qin Shuang didn't care about the so-called dangers at all. In fact, when he first saw the reward of 5,000 points of credit and Tie Liexiang, he was already moved.
Even if those bandits with the strongest martial arts skills seem to have higher cultivation than themselves, he doesn't think they will pose any threat to them. Even if they can't beat them, he can escape completely.
The most important thing is that Wu Shankang seems to be a decent person. Qin Shuang can feel that what he said just now is not exaggerated, nor does he hide it. He will not cover up some dangers just because he is worried that he will not go. This is also the reason why Qin Shuang is willing to cooperate with him.
The reason why Qin Shuang was silent was actually thinking about how to deal with the poisonous miasma and what medicine to prepare.
Hearing Wu Shankang say this, he raised his head, smiled and said, "Senior Brother Wu is right, wealth and honor are in danger, okay, let's go together!"
Wu Shankang was overjoyed when he heard this, clapped his hands and laughed, "Okay! Come on, speak quickly. Junior Brother Qin is indeed a generous person. Then let's make up for it. At noon three days later, we will meet at the first mountain gate!"
Qin Shuang nodded and said, "Okay, everything will be as stated by Senior Brother Wu. I will prepare for it now. See you in three days!" After saying that, he stopped talking, and hugged Wu Shan Kang and the other two, turned around and left.
"Senior Brother Wu, this Junior Brother Qin is only in the late stage of meridian training, and his cultivation is too low. We really want to go with him?" Qu Huijun frowned and asked quietly as he looked at Qin Shuang's back as he walked out of the gate of Wenshan Pavilion.
Wen Wenyan also said, "Yes, Brother Wu, this person is simply a burden. Not only can't help, but there is also one more person to share the credit. Have you really thought it through?"
Wu Shankang sighed and said, "How could I not think about what you two said? Just in case, we really need a doctor to help us on this trip. I originally wanted to find a helper at the Medicine House, but they were extremely snobbish and could not ask for anything at all. Now I have to settle for the second best and let this junior brother Qin respond first. In fact, I have no hope for his role..."
