Chapter 742 Encounter on the Mountain
In particular, Xia Zhili wants to compete for the position of executive deputy director. At that time, the number of subordinates will directly determine his right to speak. If Wang Chake can take it as his own, Song Huawu will be in charge by then, whether it is Group B or For Group C, it was Xia Zhili and Xiao Chen's decision, it would be much more convenient then, and it would not be too difficult for Xiao Chen to recover his identity.
Xia Xibin saw Xiao Chen lost in thought, so he and Song Huawu left to prepare.
Early the next morning, Xiao Chen took Xia Xibin, Song Huawu and Wang Chake into a commercial vehicle. Wang Chake didn't get a positive answer from Xiao Chen, and he was a little nervous when he got into the car. Above, he was very stiff and fidgeting. He didn't know if this action was his death journey, but he didn't dare to ask in detail.
Xia Xibin drove the car to the location of the Wai Wulin Auction. The location of the Wai Wulin Auction is actually not very far from Tianfang Province. It is at the junction of Tianfang Province and Dinan Province. There is a large mountain here, stretching Constantly, the primeval forest belonging to the Great Xia Kingdom has not been developed, and it has become the residence of these martial arts figures.
This mountain range is called Wushan in the martial arts, and it is the place where many activities are held in the foreign martial arts. Xiao Chen and his party's car can't go up the mountain when they come here, there is only a paid parking lot at the foot of the mountain.
This is not a tourist attraction, and there are no normal people here at all. I don’t know if there are any procedures for this parking lot. Anyway, there is a big sign that reads - Wai Wulin Guild Fee Parking.
With such a huge name, it is estimated that no one who comes here would dare not pay the fee. When Xia Xibin entered the parking lot, he was really taken aback by the parking fee.
"10,000 a day, take the card and go out to pay!" The toll collector at the entrance of the parking lot gave Xia Xibin a time card.
"..." Xia Xibin put it on the car, feeling a little heartbroken. Ten thousand a day is really a sky-high price.
But Xiao Chen had been tricked in the Hakuna Mata Desert before, and he was used to it now, so he shook his head and signaled that Xia Xibin didn't need to argue, just find a position.
Xia Xibin could only listen to Xiao Chen, originally he wanted to prove that there is also a force from the Mysterious Investigation Bureau in the Martial Arts Guild, maybe he can be allowed to park for free!
But he just thought about it, Xiao Chen let him hide his identity, if he was exposed at will because of the parking fee, it would be more harm than good.
Some cars came in after them. Similarly, they all took time cards silently. No one talked to the toll collector. After parking the car, they got off and walked up the mountain.
None of them said hello to each other, they walked in a hurry, as if they were in a hurry to do something.
But what surprised Xiao Chen was that the people he saw seemed to be the same as him, very cautious and low-key, as if afraid of being recognized by others, some of them even wore big sunglasses, scarves and peaked caps, like a private detective. look.
It seems that it is not only Xiao Chen who is afraid of being robbed after taking pictures, but other people in the martial arts world are probably also afraid of this situation. Looking around, the cars driven by these people do not have any school characteristics, even the license plates are taken off , to prevent people from judging the location of the car and inferring the sect of the person on it.
Also, just like Xiao Chen, the car has the license plate of Tianfang Province or Dinan Province, so it should be a car rented here after arriving nearby!
Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the license plate was from Tianfang Province, and he was afraid that others would recognize the number of the Mysterious Investigation Bureau, so he specially asked Xia Xibin to change it to an ordinary one, and it was an empty number. The owner who does not leave the car.
"Everyone, put on your equipment!" Xiao Chen instructed Xia Xibin and the others. Before, he was afraid that he would attract attention if he was armed too tightly, but now it seems that they are not armed at all to attract attention!
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, everyone put on their bodies with a click, and in a blink of an eye, the four of them became almost like the others. When they got out of the car, Xiao Chen led the way, in fact, they followed the people in front. The first time I came, I didn't know the route at all.
Fortunately, his perception is relatively strong, the person in front is far away, Xiao Chen can also keep up.
"Brother Xiao, why do I feel that these people are thieves? Why are they all sneaking around in such a hurry?" Xia Xibin pointed to the fast-moving humanity ahead.
"Who knows, it's my first time here, it seems that this place is not very peaceful!" Xiao Chen said.
But as soon as the two finished speaking, a few people came from not far behind. These people walked very fast, and their strength was not concealed at all, but Xiao Chen could feel that these people were all at the level of martial arts masters Existence, no generals, yet so arrogant?
"Get out of the way!" The man who opened the way in front shouted while running, and some monks in front of him immediately moved out of the way to let the group of people pass.
What surprised Xiao Chen the most was that these people did not pretend to be disguised, but showed their true colors, and even held their heads high and held their chests high, not minding anyone seeing them at all.
Xiao Chen calmly suggested that everyone move away to the sides. Although Xiao Chen didn't pay attention to these martial artists, the purpose of coming here was to take pictures, not to fight with others.
After these people rushed past, Xiao Chen continued to walk forward, but he deliberately slowed down, waiting for the people behind to catch up. Just now he saw from the corner of his eye that a monk walking in front had no time to get out of the way, and was cut off by someone who opened the way. The martial artist staggered and fell aside.
And Xiao Chen also saw the strength that this person showed when he fell to defend himself. He was actually a martial artist, that is to say, his strength was not weak, but he still chose to back down, which made Xiao Chen very suspicious of the identity of that group of people. curious.
After a while, that person came up. This was also an armed monk, but compared to the others, the armed one was a bit weird. He wore a mask on his face, which looked more unusual.
"Brother, do you dare to ask who are those ruthless people who just passed?" Xiao Chen waited for him to come up, and asked with his fists clasped.
The masked man gave Xiao Chen a cold look, but continued to walk forward without answering.
"Brother?" Xiao Chen was taken aback, and chased after him.
"Could it be that you are here to make fun of me?" The masked man finally got a little impatient, turned his head to look at Xiao Chen, and said, "You come to the auction, do you know who he is?"
"Uh..." Xiao Chen's heart trembled, could it be that this group of people are very famous?
"Okay, I'm leaving, don't think I'm easy to bully, I'm afraid they're not fake, but I'm not afraid of you!" the masked man said indifferently, revealing the aura of the fifth level of a martial artist.
"Brother, we are disciples from the sect to practice, and it is also the first time to come to this auction. I really don't know!" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly: "How could we bully Xiongtai? We are brothers and sisters who are stronger than each other. It doesn't look like Xiongtai's opponent at all!"
"Oh?" The masked man froze for a moment, then looked at Xiao Chen and the others.
Xia Xibin, Song Huawu, and Wang Chake quickly showed their strength, and the masked man found that their strength was lower than his own, so he believed Xiao Chen's words, and said: "So you are all experienced disciples in the sect, then No wonder, I was embarrassed just now, I thought you were making fun of me!"
This person is so refreshing and open-minded, he was relieved after hearing Xiao Chen's explanation.
"It doesn't matter, our sect is for us to gain experience. Just now we saw everyone dodge, and we also dodged. You also know that although our sect is not weak, we are just newcomers." Xiao Chen deliberately did not say. Where do you come from, just said: "And you have to keep a low profile when you go outside to practice, the sect does not allow you to reveal your identity."
"I understand this." The masked man nodded and said, "I belong to the Qingyan faction, and I'm currently the acting head of the Qingyan faction, but do you think I'm a miserable person?"
"Brother is a fifth-level martial artist, how can you say it's miserable? He's much better than me!" Xiao Chen said hastily.
"Well, our sect is a small sect. My master, that is, the old master, has been injured for many years and is ill. And the disciples in the sect have been walking and disappearing all these years. Anyway, seeing that the sect has not developed much, most of them I’ve all gone to fend for myself, so don’t look at my strength, but I have to bow my head in front of many people!” The masked man sighed and said helplessly.
"Brother's strength is in this category, it will not be difficult to revive the sect in the future!" Xiao Chen said.
"Forget it, I know my own affairs!" It seems that Xiao Chen is really a newcomer, he doesn't understand anything, and the masked person is no longer on guard: "My name is Zheng Xinxiang, you can call me Brother Xiang, brother Taiwan is a bit out of the ordinary."
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Xiang, and I'm called Qiang Xiao, a martial artist with peak strength on the fourth floor!" Xiao Chen said.
"Oh? You are the peak of the fourth floor!" Zheng Xinxiang was a little surprised: "Then your strength is not weak, and you are still a newcomer disciple who has experienced experience. Your school is not small!"
"These are all matters of the master's sect, I'm sorry I can't say more." Xiao Chen said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter, the sects have their own rules!" Zheng Xinxiang didn't care, and said: "By the way, you should have heard of the sects of those people before. They are from the Jinyi Sect."
"Jinyimen?" Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback, he had never heard of it.
"You don't know?" Seeing Xiao Chen's expression, it was obvious that he didn't know.
"Before I came down, I didn't know anything about the sect at all." Xiao Chen smiled wryly.
"That's right, Jinyimen is a relatively large sect, and it belongs to one of the leading sects among the famous decent sects, so don't look at the people who passed by just now with similar strength as me, but they can't be offended. These people are very domineering. , we small sects can only walk around when we see it!" Zheng Xinxiang said.
"Oh? Why are you so domineering since you are a decent school?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Famous Decent School is only relative to Demon Sect. All sects that are not Demon Sect will call themselves Famous Decent School!" Zheng Xinxiang said.
