"What? Yan Chixia? Your name is Yan Chixia too? "
Nie Xiaoqian, who was wiping the little girl's face, suddenly raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes under the veil were filled with serious suspicion.
"What do you mean by 'too'? My name is Yan Chixia …"
"Wait, do you know Yan Chixia?"
The greedy swordsman didn't think much of it at first, but then he realized something and stared at Nie Xiaoqian.
"I was once controlled by a Thousand-Year Tree Demon, and Master Yan and you saved me. Master Yan even fought the Nether General in the Black Mountain with us, so you can't be Yan Chixia!
"Tell me, why are you pretending to be him? What's your purpose?"
Nie Xiaoqian's face turned cold, and a gloomy aura popped up around her. She was instantly surrounded by a white mist.
As a core member of Dragon City, she had been through a lot of battles and had developed an extraordinary fighting vibe. She was no longer the female ghost she used to be!
"Hey, hey, hey … Don't fight, don't fight! I don't want to fight anymore!"
The greedy swordsman quickly stepped back.
He could tell that Nie Xiaoqian wasn't as strong as Dian Wei, but she definitely had treasures that could threaten him.
However, she definitely had treasures that could threaten him. He really didn't understand why a maid of the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce was so awesome.
"Alright, actually, I'm not Yan Chixia … I'm just using his name. The real Great Hero Yan died after drinking once, and I even buried him with my own hands!"
Then, he shook his head and said.
There was a hint of sadness and nostalgia on his face.
"However, Master Yan did say that I was the reincarnation of Zhiqiu from the Kunlun Mountain when he was drunk, and that he felt sorry for me. Well, if you don't like to call me Yan Chixia, you can just call me Zhiqiu. "
Yes, Zhiqiu!
Ji Ye recognized him the moment he saw him.
As a "supporting actor" who had the most scenes in the second and third series of "A Chinese Ghost Story", other than the male and female leads,
Zhi Qiu could definitely be called a hero!
His sacrifice was undoubtedly memorable. In the second installment, he and Yan Chixia had used their primordial spirits to leave their bodies to defeat the powerful centipede spirit master, Universal Ferry.
In the end, because his cultivation was not high enough, his primordial spirit could not return to his body, and he died.
This matter obviously filled Yan Chixia with guilt. From the looks of it, it was very likely that he had searched around and found the reincarnation of Zhiqiu Yiye. Although he did not directly accept him as a disciple, he had taught him the cultivation method. He had even given Zhiqiu Yiye his sword box and the Kunlun Sect's "Law Scroll"!
Those items were all Transcendent. Also, as the reincarnation of Zhi Qiu, he was at least Superior.
No wonder he could fight Dian Wei head-on without losing.
"Don't be sad. After the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce, I think you might be able to see Master Yan again soon!"
Ji Ye said meaningfully.
…
"I'm going!"
"I want to be a guard!"
And because of the excitement of Zhiqiu's five thousand taels of silver.
No one hesitated anymore. More and more people challenged Dian Wei.
"Have pity on me and let me pass. I have an old mother who is ninety years old and blind, a wife who is crying piteously for food, and four wives and concubines to support … "
Some of them even took inspiration from the beggar brother and sister. Instead of fighting, they tried to persuade Dian Wei to go easy on them.
However, hardly had he finished his sentence when he was blown away by Dian Wei's punch.
When the sun was about to set, Dragon City had recruited almost a hundred people, and more than half of them were Extraordinary!
"Okay, that's all for today.
"After dawn tomorrow, the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce will continue to recruit members!"
"Right, Manager Sun, go back and make preparations. To welcome everybody, the people of the Dragon City Chamber of Commerce and the brothers of the county government will have dinner at your place tonight."
Then, Ji Ye spoke to a man who had triangular eyes and looked like a cunning businessman.
He was the boss of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant next to the county government. It was the only restaurant in Guobei County that could accommodate a hundred people!
"Well …"
Hearing what Ji Ye said, the cunning boss of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant seemed to be in a dilemma.
"Well, here you go. This is the deposit!"
An Iron Buddha directly threw five pieces of gold worth ten taels to him.
"Aiya … Replying to President Ji, it's actually not a problem of money. It's just that the merchant team that delivered goods to our Dragon-Phoenix Restaurant hasn't appeared for ten days. I'm afraid that the food in our restaurant isn't able to provide for your meal!"
The triangular-eyed shopkeeper quickly put the gold ingots into his arms, but then he still looked hesitant.
"Go to the county government. The county magistrate will give you some …"
Ji Ye spoke to him in a low voice.
"Don't worry. The Dragon City Chamber of Commerce will soon deliver a large batch of food and other resources."
Following that, he raised his voice, and at the same time, it was clearly heard by everyone present.
"What? Food and resources?"
After hearing that, the second-in-command of the Flood Dragon Gang, whose face was already gloomy after losing more than ten men in the afternoon, suddenly raised his head.
Then, he glared at Ji Ye with a murderous look before leading his men and the wounded away.
"Boss Yu, I didn't know those people were so rich. They even have food."
"Should we sneak in tonight, secretly capture the leader, and force him to tell us their location?"
In an inconspicuous corner of the crowd, there were a few men who were dressed shabbily and had yellow patches on their chests.
A look of desire appeared on his face.
"Are you an idiot?"
"They've recruited so many people today. Can we take them down with just the few of us?"
"Leaving everything else aside, this brutal man alone is enough to kill all of you, not to mention that swordsman who knows evil techniques!"
Boss Yu slapped the head of the man who spoke.
"Stay here tonight and don't alert them. Li Dayan and the others have already gone back. If everything goes well, the commander will arrive with the army tomorrow morning at the latest."
"By then, they won't be worth mentioning in front of General Flying Swallow no matter how strong they are!"
Boss Yu said confidently.
"But … We …"
One of the scouts still wanted to say something.
"Haven't we already made it clear? Why are you still talking?"
Yu Tou's face was filled with anger.
"Boss Yu, have you forgotten that we're out of money?"
Another Yellow Turban Army scout with a wound on his forehead said cautiously.
"Damn it, the black inn that we stayed in last night actually took all our money. He even poisoned the wine and stole our weapons and horses! "
Another Yellow Turban Army soldier with an injured arm was filled with grief and indignation.
"Damn it. If they didn't have so many people … When the army arrives tomorrow, we'll definitely turn that inn upside down. No, we'll kill all the men in Guobei County. "
"I heard that there's a Lanruo Temple in the south of the city, but there are no monks there anymore. Although it's been neglected for years, you can stay there for free … "
Another scout said in a low voice.
