Fighting: Dragon and Phoenix Alchemist

Chapter 136

After walking leisurely for a long time, the map shop named "Gutu" appeared in everyone's sight. This shop was not as luxurious and flamboyant as other stores, and it was slightly quaint. breath.

Walking into the store, the interior of the store is not too spacious. The faint light of the two moonstones illuminates the store quite brightly. My eyes scanned the interior of the store. There were not many people inside to buy maps, and it looked deserted. , which made everyone wonder if they were in the wrong place.

Xia Mo's eyes stopped on an old man behind the counter who was carefully making a map with his head down. This old man was obviously quite old, but although he had white hair, he was holding a black drawing pen. His dry palms were still strong and steady.

Xia Mo knew that he was the Ice Emperor Haibodong, once one of the top ten powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire, he was lonely and proud, and he was extremely good at ice fighting spirit. He once froze a whole city in a fit of rage. Among the great powerhouses, he is one of the few Dou Huang powerhouses.

But now, because he broke into the Tagore Desert and took away this residual map, he was chased by Queen Medusa, suffered a great loss at the hands of the other party, and received the sealing technique. Now his strength has been greatly reduced, and he can only He could bear to hide in this desert city.

Hearing the commotion, Hai Bodong in the shop also put down his work, and then an old face appeared in the eyes of several people. There was a terrifying scar from the left cheek to the corner of the eye. Although the old man's eyes were quite peaceful, this scar still gave him a hint of ferocity.with.

"Are you going to buy a map of the Great Tagore Desert?"

Haibodong asked everyone, his old voice flatly echoing in the room.

Hearing the old man's inquiry, Xiao Yan turned around, walked slowly to the counter, nodded with a smile, and said politely: "Old man, can you give me the most accurate and detailed desert map?"

"The items are on the counter, choose yourself." Hai Bodong didn't stand up to introduce them. Instead, he just said lightly. He looked very unlike a businessman.

Seeing the old man's peculiar attitude, Xiao Yan was a little stunned, but he didn't say anything. After all, the world is a big place and there are many weird people. He walked straight to the counter, holding it in his hand and looking over it with interest. The clear route made him nod with satisfaction.

Xia Mo had long known that Hai Bodong had a weird temper, so he walked directly to a simple wooden frame in the corner of the shop and walked slowly.

This wooden frame is obviously worn for a long time, and it is covered with rotten wood holes. On it, some yellowed maps are randomly stacked. Looking at some broken marks on the surface of these maps, it seems to be a failed product when making maps. .

Flipping through these yellowed maps casually with the palm of his hand, a faint musty smell came over his face, and he frowned slightly. The dilapidated picture shook out.

Looking at the mysterious routes on the yellowed picture, although Xia Mo still couldn't understand the mystery, he knew that this should be a fragment of the "Pure Lotus Demon Fire" map.

Holding the broken ancient picture in his hand, he carefully scanned the slightly familiar mysterious route on the picture.

After a while, Xia Mo slowly narrowed his eyes and murmured: "This should be it..."

Xia Mo turned around, walked slowly to the counter, spread out the ancient map fragment on his palm, and asked softly: "Old man, how much does this fragment of map cost?"

Xiao Yan and Zi Yan at the side came over curiously when they heard Xia Mo's words, and they were a little surprised to see the residual picture in his hand.

Hearing Xia Mo's question, Hai Bodong, who had been drawing the map with concentration, his palms trembled unnoticeably, and the carefully drawn route deviated slightly.

Frowning slightly, Haibodong slowly raised his head and glanced at the broken map in Xia Mo's hand. There was an inexplicable meaning in his muddy old eyes.

"You... have seen fragments of this kind of map before?" Eyes swept over Xia Mo, looking at this young face, Hai Bodong's voice was slightly surprised.

Hearing this, Xia Mo narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "I have seen this kind of map fragment, and I know what it is, and it is useless to you."

"Oh."

"Mister, can you sell me this map now? I am willing to pay a high price."

"Not for sale." The old man lowered his head slowly, and once again focused his mind on the unfinished map. Although his tone was flat, he had an unquestionable attitude.

Seeing that he was still rejected, Xia Mo's eyes gradually narrowed. No matter what, he was bound to get this fragment of the map. Not to mention that Hai Bodong was just a fighting spirit now, even if he was a real fighting emperor. He must get it in his hands. Even if he doesn't use it, he should be able to cheat Xiao Yan with a mysterious pill in the future, and he plans to try to see if he can get some inheritance from the Pure Lotus Demon Saint...

Hai Bodong had grabbed the residual map, but his strength was eventually sealed, so he had been hiding in the Tagore Desert trying to understand the secrets of the residual map to help him break through the seal. Unfortunately, there was only a part of the residual map, and he gained nothing at all.

In the end, he had no choice but to find another way. While continuing to live in seclusion, he also used ingenious means to divide the residual image into two, without any trace of division.

Xia Mo couldn't imagine that the map left by a Half-Emperor would be divided by a Dou-Emperor. All he could say was that he was worthy of my brother Dong.

While Xia Mo's mind was churning with thoughts, Xiao Yan was also communicating with Yao Lao in his mind.

"Be careful, this old guy is not an ordinary person."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's heart suddenly trembled, and he hurriedly said in his heart: "Teacher, this old man is weird, what about Xiaomo?"

"Well, according to my detection, the real strength of this old guy should be at the level of the Douhuang. However, he seems to be suppressed by some strange force. The strength in his body is only about the strength of Dou Ling. To Xiaomo, he should It’s nothing.” Yao Lao said with great interest.

"Douhuang?" His heart shook, and Xiao Yan lost his voice in his heart: "How is it possible? Among the top ten powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire, only three are Douhuang powerhouses. Where did this person come from?" The Douhuang powerhouse who came out?"

"How do I know... But the strong men you mentioned are only on the surface. The Jiama Empire is also a big empire. There are always many strong men who don't like to show their faces like that. Some strong men, even more He has a lonely and eccentric temperament, so it's not surprising that he came to the edge of the desert to sell maps, but I am interested in the residual map in Xiao Mo's hand?" Yao Lao said casually.

"Little guy, don't think about my map anymore. I don't care for money. Get your things and go. Also, don't think about grabbing them. It won't do you any good." The old man waved his hand, He said calmly, he didn't seem to be afraid that Xia Mo would run away with the fragment in his hand.

Exhaling slowly, Xia Mo said: "I want more than just this half, and the other half. Moreover, it is really difficult to grab something in front of a strong man who was once a Dou Huang. But now, It’s not certain who is older and who is younger! Besides, I didn’t say what I would exchange for you!”

"Crack!" The ink pen that was moving slowly in his hand suddenly touched, and with a crisp sound, it snapped.

The old man stared fixedly at the black mark smeared with ink on the map. After a while, he raised his head and stared at Xia Mo. A faint chill gradually lingered in his cloudy pupils.

"Boy, who are you?"

Hai Bodong tapped somewhere on the table with his palm, and the open door unexpectedly closed with a bang. He stared at Xia Mo sharply, and a cold and domineering aura emanated from his body. spread out.
