The tops of two crystal clear dragon horns protruded quietly from the river surface. After sensing the surrounding situation, a huge dragon head slowly emerged from the water.

Feng Ning sensed left and right, and found that Guiguzi was not around, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Simply inexplicable!"

In Feng Ning's eyes, the master and apprentice had brain problems, and they dared to ask him for help without thinking about the positions of both parties!

"Don't even think about it!" Feng Ning snorted, and then looked around.

This is an unknown river, and the rocks on both sides of the river do not know what elements are rich in, showing a light purple to deep purple color, and the sizes of the pieces vary.

Feng Ning casually finds a direction and continues to swim.

Under the setting sun, the originally clear river water is reflected by the rocks, and the colors gradually become gorgeous.

As Feng Ning deepened, the volume of the rocks on the shore also gradually increased. The largest rock was hundreds of feet long, and the coast was endless, and the color was like a long rainbow.

Just when Feng Ning was curious about where this place was, two boats sailed in the distance.

A square flag with the word "Dart" written in black was erected on both ships, and there were two small characters "First" under the dart flag.

A group of bodyguards in uniform were chatting and laughing loudly. Feng Ning, with sharp eyes, also saw an extremely burly man among the bodyguards, over two meters tall, with a wine jar by his hand, and the conversation started. The big man will take a big gulp.

And the bodyguards around him faintly centered on him, chatting and laughing around him.

Just as Feng Ning was about to dive nearby to see if he could get some news from these people, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly a wave broke up in the river, and a six-foot-long fish demon jumped out of the river. The fish demon was covered in golden scales, and its body was huge but extremely fast.

Before those bodyguards could react, its sharp teeth like a hacksaw directly bit the burly man.

Maybe in the eyes of the fish monster, the bigger ones are more delicious.

The sudden appearance of the fish demon shocked the bodyguards around, and they ran away one after another.

Only the big man stood still, facing the jagged mouth of the fish monster, he still had the leisure to take a sip of fine wine.

Just when the fish demon was about to bite the big man, the big man turned sideways chicly, and the fish demon almost flew past the big man's body.

Before the fish demon fell down, the big man made a sudden move, his muscular arm clenched his fist and punched the fish demon's lower abdomen hard.

"hiss!"

The fish demon was in pain, and his huge body was punched flying by the man, and fell heavily on the deck of the ship, and there was a strange sound in his mouth.

"Oh!?" The big man's eyes lit up, "It's actually a fish demon who is about to refine the bones! Brothers are lucky tonight!"

The big man laughed, pointed his toes, and went straight to the side of the fish demon, and directly cut the fish demon's belly open with a claw-like claw.

The big man didn't dislike the stench of the fish demon's blood. After groping in the fish's belly for a while, he sighed unhappily: "There is no demon pearl."

Seeing the big man disemboweling the fish demon with his bare hands, the bodyguards who were fleeing in all directions approached cautiously one by one.

After confirming that the fish demon was beaten to death by the big man, they all beamed with joy.

"Brother Cheng Bing is really powerful. He was able to beat the fish demon to death with his bare hands. If this story is reported, our Escort Bureau's reputation will be even louder!"

A bodyguard said flatteringly with a wink.

The other bodyguards were stunned for a moment, looking at the dead fish demon, they immediately came to their senses, flattering and slapping each other for free.

Cheng Bing smiled triumphantly: "Okay, don't say too much about these flattery, let the merchants on the ship provide a few cooks, and we will have a good meal tonight!"

The accompanying merchants on the dart boat had seen the sudden change a long time ago, and seeing such a brave man among the escorts, naturally they would not refuse Cheng Bing's request.

The cooks were quick to dispose of the body of the fish demon, and soon the smell of its fish flesh filled the boat.

"Master Cheng, my Patriarch admires you for the way you showed off your might just now. I wonder if you can take a step to speak?"

A middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper came to Cheng Bing and his group of bodyguards with a smile.

The expressions of the other bodyguards did not change when they heard the steward's words. Even Cheng Bing himself smiled and said, "There is nothing you can do."

Seeing that Cheng Bing was so talkative, the housekeeper was a little surprised.He was prepared to be rejected by the other party, and then invited a few more times.

But he didn't know that Cheng Bing had been a bodyguard for a long time, and anyone who had seen his skills would invite him to have a private talk.

The purpose of those people looking for him is very simple, either to pay a high price to recruit him as a family member, or to directly make him the exclusive guard leader of their business.

There were many rejections, and Cheng Bing also understood a truth.

That is, don't rush to refuse when encountering such things in the future. Rather than being annoyed by the other party all the time, it's better to make it clear in person.

Follow the steward to the boat.

In a luxurious room inside the ship, the owner of the merchant was sitting in front of the Eight Immortals table with freshly boiled tea on the table. A look of joy flashed in his eyes when he saw Cheng Bing.

"I don't know why the merchant called me here?" Cheng Bing clasped his fists and asked neither humble nor overbearing.

The owner of the merchant was in his early fifties and had gray temples. Instead of answering, he made a gesture of invitation: "Master Cheng, sit down first."

Cheng Bing was also polite, and sat down generously.

The merchant personally poured tea for the two of them. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea, then smiled and said, "Master Cheng is very capable, why would he choose to be a little escort!?"

Although Cheng Bing likes to drink, he doesn't refuse to drink tea. After all, this is something only nobles can afford.

He gulped down the tea in one gulp, regardless of whether it was freshly boiled tea that scalded his mouth.

Smacking his mouth, Cheng Bing said casually: "It's all about supporting the family, the business owner hasn't said why he called me here."

The business owner didn't mind Cheng Bing's randomness either, he smiled and said, "Since Cheng Biaoshi only works as an escort in order to support his family, do you mind changing to a more lucrative job?"

"Huh!?" Cheng Bing met such a person for the first time. He frowned unrecognizably, narrowed his eyes, and carefully looked at the merchant in front of him.

The clothes on his body are made of expensive silk and satin, and he wears an agate ring on his finger. He looks no different from those rich merchants.

But since there is money to be made, he doesn't mind hearing what kind of work it is.

"What's the errand?" Cheng Bing looked away and asked seemingly casually.

The merchant smiled, "Master Cheng, have you heard of the rumored Huaguo Mountain?"

"Huaguo Mountain?" Cheng Bing frowned, "Is it the majestic mountain shadow on the other side of Aolai Country? I've never heard of anyone going there."

"Hehe, it's that mountain, but we have a special channel to go to Huaguo Mountain. What Master Cheng has to do is to send something to Huaguo Mountain."

As the merchant spoke, he signaled to the steward at the side, and the steward knew how to move out a huge copper treasure chest from the inner room of the room.

"This is a treasure we received from a businessman surnamed Lu. You just need to send this treasure to Huaguo Mountain, and we will give you an absolutely satisfactory reward after it is done."

The merchant took out two heavy silver taels from his pocket, "These 300 taels are the deposit."

Cheng Bing's breathing suddenly became heavier.

Feng Ning, who was lurking next to the escort boat, also pricked up his ears. Of course, he didn't prick up his ears because of Yinliang, but because he heard someone talking about Huaguo Mountain!
