Chapter 17 Ordinary people fall into the trap
Ning Chen and Ning Yong sat by the window on the second floor of the restaurant, always monitoring the street.
"Look, Ning Zhuo appears."
"let's go!"
The two of them walked quickly and arrived at the intersection in advance, pretending to meet by chance, and bumped into Ning Zhuo head-on.
"Ning Zhuo?" Ning Yong called out.
Ning Zhuo looked at the two of them, was stunned for a moment, and smiled: "It's you, Ning Yong, Ning Chen."
These two people are Ning Zhuo's classmates.
Ning Chen pretended to sigh: "We haven't seen each other since the big exam. It feels like a long time has passed."
Ning Zhuo's heart moved slightly: "Although time is short, if a lot of things happen, it will naturally give the illusion that time is long."
Ning Yong: "I heard about you. After the big exam, you had a falling out with your uncle and aunt, and you didn't want to accept their help."
"Is it difficult for you to live alone now?"
"What can you do to earn spiritual stones to maintain your practice?"
Ning Zhuo hesitated for a moment: "I am currently doing odd jobs in a machine workshop. What about you?"
Ning Yong chuckled and said proudly: "We have joined the Demon Hunting Club!"
"We are buying supplies for leaving the city. Tonight, together with the seniors of the Demon Hunting Association, we will enter the Demon Cave to hunt demon beasts."
"How about it, exciting?"
Ning Zhuo opened his mouth slightly in surprise: "You want to enter the red flame demon cave? Isn't it too dangerous?"
"What are you afraid of? What can you do if you are afraid of death?" Ning Yong puffed up his chest with a look of disdain on his face, "You are young and you should be wandering around. If you don't take risks, how can you get any benefits? There is no money to speed up. In cultivation, when and how long will it take for me to build the foundation?”
Ning Chen said: "Don't listen to him. There are monks from our Ning family in the demon hunting guild. Have you heard of Master Ning Zhanji?"
"We entered the cave under his leadership. Tonight is the low ebb of the Earth Flame, so it is very safe."
Ning Chen tried his best to reassure Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo showed envy.
Ning Yong saw it and invited directly: "As I say, Ning Zhuo, you should stop doing any workshop work. Just go down to the cave with us."
"There are so many treasures hidden in the demon cave."
"How much can you earn in a week? Maybe, you harvested a spiritual plant in the Red Flame Demon Melting Cave, which is enough for your weekly salary!"
Ning Zhuo shook his head, waved his hands, and refused: "My scores in swordsmanship have always been average or low. It's too dangerous to fight monsters. I can't do it."
"Coward!" Ning Yong glared and was about to speak.
Ning Chen stopped him with his eyes, smiled and said to Ning Zhuo: "If I were you, Ning Zhuo, I would go back and admit my mistake to my eldest uncle and eldest aunt, and ask them to send me into the family industry through their connections. This treatment is definitely better than mine. There’s so much work out there!”
Ning Zhuo immediately shook his head, showing his youthful spirit, and said firmly: "Since the trouble has come to this point, there is no way I will bow my head like this."
Ning Chen chuckled softly: "Then if I were your uncle or aunt, what would I think if I saw you in such a miserable state that you were struggling to make a living in an inconspicuous small workshop?"
"Perhaps you are thinking: Look, this Ning Zhuo doesn't know the heights of the world. Without our help, he can only live in poverty and gradually become the lowest among monks!"
Ning Zhuo suddenly frowned and his face darkened, as if his defenses had been broken.
Ning Chen smiled in her heart and kept working hard...
After a while.
Looking at Ning Zhuo's leaving figure, Ning Yong said: "Ning Zhuo's grades are better than the two of us, but what's the use? He didn't easily win over us and agreed to act with us tonight."
Ning Chen sighed: "Ning Zhuo is an ordinary person like us."
"Thinking about it from his perspective, if I were him and was deliberately plotted, I would also fall into the trap."
"well……"
Seeing that his companion was in a low mood, Ning Yong consoled him: "Although Ning Zhuo is our classmate, we have now become attached to Master Ning Zhanji. This time, Master Ning Zhanji personally gave us the order. This feeling of being a classmate, and What does our future mean compared to how we are not familiar with him?”
Ning Chen shook his head slightly: "Forget it. In this way, we can finally give an explanation to Lord Ning Zhanji."
"Let's go."
In the evening, Ning Zhuo came to the meeting point alone.
Ning Yong smiled and led him in.
Ning Chen took him to Ning Zhanji.
Ning Zhanji is a tall, middle-aged man with slender eyebrows. He looked Ning Zhuo up and down and said expressionlessly, "Since you are all members of the Ning family, I will take care of you this time and arrange for you to join the team."
"But remember, all actions must obey my orders and arrangements."
"Junior understands!" Ning Zhuo said quickly.
Information about Ning's fighter plane quickly flashed through Ning Zhuo's mind.
Many years ago, the Ning family began to consciously send monks to various organizations inside and outside Huoshixian City.
Ning Fighter is one of them.
He himself is very strong in combat and acts decisively, which can be said to be resolute and resolute. He is able to seize fleeting opportunities on the battlefield, so he stands out as a general-type figure.
This time, Ning Zhanji was entrusted by Ning Zui and received the latter's money, so he sent Ning Chen and Ning Yong to provoke Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhanji looked at Ning Zhuo, then withdrew his gaze, and evaluated in his mind: "The third level of Qi Refining is just ordinary."
Soon, more than fifty people were gathered.
Among these people, most of them were surnamed Ning. A small number of outsiders were also closely related to the Ning family.
Ning Zhanji led everyone and began to move towards the Red Flame Demon Molten Cave.
Huoshi Xiancheng is a typical mountain city.
Most of the buildings in the city are concentrated on the hillside. The higher the terrain is, the more central it is, and the crater on the top of the mountain is in the center. The lower the terrain is, the foot of the mountain stretches out.
Ning Zhuo and his party climbed up from the hillside. They passed several checkpoints along the way, and the inspections they underwent were also very loose, and finally reached the top of the mountain.
At the top of the mountain, the spiritual energy was obviously dense and hot.
The air was filled with the smell of sulfur, and it was quite pungent.
Although it was night, the crater was always scattering bright flames. With the help of the light, Ning Zhuo saw bursts of white smoke floating above the crater.
In this white smoke, there were many smoke larks flying around, rushing in and out.
Ning Zhuo and others came to the edge of the volcano.
Looking down, you can see a wide, flat rocky land in the crater.
The red rocks are constantly emitting scorching heat. Some red rocks are closely connected, while some have gaps between the rock plates, under which flows bright orange-red magma. There are also holes open on the rocks.
Some holes spew flames from time to time, some flow out magma, and some are bottomless, leading to deeper underground.
The mountain wall and the rocky ground are almost vertical, and the mountain wall is glass-colored and extremely smooth. This is obviously a trace of human intervention, and the entire crater is like a huge open cup.
Going to the center, Ning Zhuo found that the number of underground holes on the red rock surface is increasing, and the size of the holes is getting larger and larger.
Finally, his eyes were fixed on the center of the rocky land.
There is a magma lake.
