"Pa pa …"
A grey messenger bird flapped its wings and flew out of the window, while Third Fatty Jin slowly pressed the paper under the scroll on the table. At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Jin Xiaotang pushed the door open and entered with a joyful expression, "Father, I heard a messenger bird in the room just now. Did someone send a letter?"
"Aha …"
Third Fatty Jin fanned the temperature of the tea in his hand and smiled, "No, it's just a greeting letter from a friend. Xiaotang, why is Lin Muyu looking for you?"
Jin Xiaotang's gaze swept across the document, and she saw the emblem of two swords at the end of the paper. It was the emblem unique to the House of Chivalry, and the emblem was painted blood red. This meant that this letter was sent to her father by at least a Game Envoy of the House of Chivalry. Moreover, the cup of tea in Third Fatty Jin's hand had already been warmed, and there was no need to fan it down.
"Nothing much. He just wants to know when I can get the Rainbow Lotus in stock. Big Brother Yu is really short on money right now!" Jin Xiaotang smiled.
Third Fatty Jin squinted his eyes and said, "Lin Muyu is a member of the Royal Guard, but he seems to have been sent to the Eagle Nest Camp. The Eagle Nest Camp is so poor, so it's normal for him to be short on money. Oh right, have the ores from the Cloud Province arrived yet? "
"Not yet. Is it very urgent, father?"
"Oh, it's not that urgent. Xiaotang, hire a group of first-rate blacksmiths from Lanyan City. I want to forge a batch of weapons."
"Oh?" Jin Xiaotang was stunned, "Then let Big Brother Yu do it?"
"No, Lin Muyu is a top-notch blacksmith. We shouldn't trouble him with this kind of thing. After all, it's not easy for our Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce to hold onto such a big tree. We shouldn't trouble him so easily."
"That's right. Father, you're so thoughtful. I'll get it done now!"
"Okay."
Jin Xiaotang pushed open the door and a trace of worry flashed across her face.
…
"Du du du …"
Lin Muyu ascended Eagle Nest Mountain amidst the clattering of horse hooves. She found Wei Chou and made arrangements for the team's daily work. She told them that they had to be orderly and not let anyone know that they were not in Eagle Nest Camp. Then, she went down the mountain from the back.
At this moment, Lin Muyu had already changed into a dark green warrior's outfit. She wore a tattered mercenary badge on her chest. Her Burning Prairie Sword was wrapped in black cloth and carried on her back. Even the horse she was riding on was just bought from the market. The warhorses of the Royal Army and the Holy Cathedral were carefully selected. Furthermore, there were emblems on their buttocks and hooves. It was too easy to be discovered, so she had to find another mode of transportation.
"Hua …"
She opened the scroll and looked at the direction of the House of Chivalry's Xiao Lin branch on the map. She urged her horse and galloped there. The sky was getting dark, so she had to reach the Xiao Lin branch before dark.
Along the edge of the Dragon Seeking Forest, there were only a few villages and houses along the way. Basically, there were no cultivators. When she was about ten miles away from the Xiao Lin branch, she saw some rangers. These people carried long swords and wore emblems of the House of Chivalry on their chests. There were green, white, iron, and bronze. Lin Muyu could not understand the classification of the House of Chivalry at the moment, so she did not think too much about it and went straight ahead.
Before sunset, she arrived at the foot of a nameless mountain. She saw a road winding all the way to the top of the mountain. On the road at the foot of the mountain, there was a towering tree that had been cut in half. The bark was peeled off, and eight blood-red words were carved on it with a knife — House of Chivalry's Xiao Lin Branch. She had arrived!
Pulling the reins, Lin Muyu walked over slowly. There were eight rangers standing guard at the mountain gate. Each of them had a hostile look on their faces. Although the rangers in the House of Chivalry claimed to be chivalrous, Lin Muyu knew a thing or two from the rumors. In fact, the biggest difference between this group of people and mercenaries was that their organization was very large. As for the rest … it seemed that they were just so-so.
They even dared to attack the Princess of the Empire and the Countess of Qihai City. In fact, this group of people was even more daring than mercenaries.
…
"Who is it?!"
A ranger pointed his long sword at Lin Muyu and said, "What are you doing at the top of the mountain?"
Lin Muyu cupped her fists and said in the words that Jin Xiaotang taught her, "Righteousness comes first when traveling in Jianghu. When the weather is cold, find a place to sleep. I am Lin Yan, a mercenary from Lanyan City. I have specially come to visit the House of Chivalry."
"You want to join the House of Chivalry?" the ranger asked.
"Yes."
"Hahaha …" The ranger's face was full of hostility. With a shake of his sword, he had already unsheathed it. He said in a low voice, "If you want to join the House of Chivalry, the first condition is to defeat anyone in the House of Chivalry. What do you think of me?"
In fact, this ranger was at most at the First Heaven of the Human Realm. He was not even at Level 10. He was only guarding the mountain gate with his bravery.
How could Lin Muyu take this kind of person seriously? She opened her palm, and a vigorous force gushed out. She lightly waved her palm in the air!
"Bang!"
The ranger was blasted back again and again. The blood in his body was tumbling, but he did not even see how his opponent attacked. Although he wanted to use his Genuine Qi to fight again, he seemed to have no strength left. With a red face, he said, "You … you win. Let's go up the mountain!"
Lin Muyu raised her hand and saluted. She smiled and grabbed the reins, urging the horse to go up the mountain.
The other seven rangers did not even look at him. It seemed that the matter of someone going up the mountain had nothing to do with them.
…
The warhorse snorted as it walked up the mountain step by step. Lin Muyu couldn't help but look around. Along the way, there were many houses with white walls and black tiles. They were all prepared for the Rangers. With so many houses, one could imagine how many Rangers there were in this place. Faint roars of battle could be heard coming from the dense forest. It was obvious that there were people training or cultivating. Who knew?
Along the road, there was a group of buildings near the top of the mountain. They had arrived at the headquarters of the Xiao Lin branch.
Outside the headquarters, many rangers were cultivating. Some were chopping wooden dummies, and some were practicing riding and archery. However, when Lin Muyu slowly walked over, these people almost stopped cultivating. They all looked at Lin Muyu as if they were looking at a monkey in the zoo.
"Look at that kid. He actually stepped into the House of Chivalry wearing a mercenary medal. He is courting death!"
"Damn idiot. Don't you know that the House of Chivalry has a grudge against mercenaries?"
"Get off the horse and die!"
"Brat, if you dare to look at me like that again, believe it or not, I will chop off your descendants!"
…
Lin Muyu frowned. The rudeness of the rangers seemed to be better than that of the wandering mercenaries. Even people like Hawkeye were not so vulgar.
This group of people all wore the badges of the House of Chivalry on their chests. Some were bronze, some were silver, some were gold, and some were white. Presumably, the ranking system was similar to that of the Holy Temple. However, Lin Muyu extended his Spiritual Pulse Technique and scanned the people wearing the gold badges. He found that their strength was only at the level of 40-50 War Venerable. They were far inferior to the Royal Guards and the Holy Temple's Gold Star level. It was no wonder that the House of Chivalry could not compete with the Imperial Capital.
Thinking of this, he could not help but laugh. If they wanted to kill Qin Yin with just these people, it was simply a fool's dream.
However, Lin Muyu's laughter was like the most powerful mockery in the world. The group of rangers immediately became irritable. One of the warriors wearing the gold badge walked forward with his axe. His face was full of anger. He shouted, "Brat, what are you laughing at? Do you know how ugly your smile is? You are not allowed to laugh, or I will chop your head off! "
This person looked fierce, but his face was particularly ugly. There were scars all over it. It was said that ugly people would think that beautiful people were especially ugly. This was a kind of aesthetic distortion. This person said that to Lin Muyu, but Lin Muyu was not angry at all.
"I'm here to pay my respects." Lin Muyu reached into his arms and took out Jin Xiaotang's letter of introduction. He dismounted and held the letter of introduction with both hands. He said very respectfully, "Sir, this is my letter of introduction. Please help me to pass on my message."
Lin Muyu was born into an illustrious family. He was the young master of the Long Xin Group. He had received an excellent education since he was young. His greatest strength was probably that he did not care about the poor or the poor. He was humble and respectful to everyone.
The man with the battle axe grinned. Seeing that the kid was so respectful, he was embarrassed to explode. He grabbed the letter of introduction with one hand and said, "Don't call me sir. I am not one of those high-ranking officials in Lanyan City. My name is Long Yan. You can call me Lord Long Yan!"
"…"
Lin Muyu was speechless.
… …
Long Yan turned around and left with the letter of introduction. It didn't take long for him to return. He said, "You are Lin Yan, right? Come, follow me. The Great Travel Envoy wants to see you! "
"Oh, okay!" Lin Muyu tied his horse to a wooden stake and walked up the steps, following Long Yan into the headquarters.
There were quite a few guards on both sides of the main altar's entrance, and all of them were clad in excellent armor. Their weapons looked decent as well, and they were all looking straight ahead. When Lin Muyu entered the passageway, he actually sensed a hint of killing intent. Truth be told, the Rangers outside were nothing to be afraid of, but the guards inside the main altar had to be on their guard. These people seemed to be professional soldiers, and when they formed a killing formation together, the explosive power they could unleash would be terrifying. He had already experienced this when he was being chased around Cathaya City. The cavalry killing formation was fast and effective. A group of Level 10 martial artists could easily kill a Level 30 martial artist. It was like playing a game, and the power of a single soldier could not be compared to that of a group.
… …
The stone tiles on the ground reflected the color of blood. When Lin Muyu entered the headquarters, he found that the tiles under his feet had turned into glazed tiles. The lamps on the surrounding walls had also been replaced with glazed lamps. The ceiling was painted with the empire's characteristic "Battle Map". The feeling of this headquarters was somewhat similar to that of Ze Tian Palace. The level of luxury was no less than that of Ze Tian Palace.
"You are Lin Yan? Look up. "
A cold voice came from the front.
