Chapter 66 The transaction is complete!

"Haha, it's so good in the beginning. It's easy to discuss things. Why bother to fight and kill?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ning chuckled, then raised his head and showed a bright smile.

"Since the senior wants to negotiate, the junior will naturally not be polite. I wonder what kind of price the senior wants to ask for for this residual map?"

As he spoke, Xiao Ning kept sizing up Hai Bodong in front of him, with an aura of waiting for a price.

When Haibodong saw this, his heart sank slightly, but thinking that this might be a rare opportunity, Haibodong slowly said:

"Since you have revealed my identity before, I will no longer hide it. I am indeed the Ice Emperor."

Ice Emperor Haibodong was one of the top ten strongmen of the previous generation of the Gama Empire. He was aloof and arrogant, and his superb ice fighting spirit made people fear him. There was an entire city that was frozen, and one man fought alone. The battle between the emperor and a fighting king.

If other people saw this famous Ice Emperor, they would probably be frightened directly, but Xiao Ning was different. Not only his identity as a Blue Star traveler but also the inheritance of the Huangtian Emperor made him not afraid of him at all, even if the sea Bo Dong admitted it himself without making him frown.

Haibodong spoke while staring at Xiao Ning's reaction. Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh to himself:
  "I am really old and can't keep up with the times. I can't even scare young people."

But the movements of his mouth did not stop, but he continued to speak slowly:

"Why do I, who used to be a Dou Huang, now only have the strength of Dou Ling, still open a map shop here, do business, and live in such anonymity?"

"That's because of me"

After saying this, Xiao Ning immediately spoke up, interrupting Haibodong's memories. He didn't want to hear Haibodong ramble on about a lot of memories from his youth:
  "I know, it's sealed. I could tell it as soon as I walked into the store."

Xiao Ning's interruption made Haibodong cough twice, and he said unhappily:

"Young man, haven't your family taught you that it is rude to interrupt an old man when he is talking?"

When Xiao Ning heard this, he shrugged and said immediately:

"I just want us to speed things up a bit and there's no need to waste time on things that we obviously know."

Haibodong was a little frustrated, and he immediately said stiffly:

"Since you all know, let me make a long story short. When I entered the Tagore Desert, I was chased by Queen Medusa. Although I barely escaped, I paid the price."

"The seal on my body is exactly the snake seal imposed by Queen Medusa herself!"

Having said this, Hai Bodong was a little sad and said with emotion in his tone:
  "I kept this fragment of the map and continued to study it, just to find something that could help me break the seal. But it is only a part of a map. No matter how experienced and skillful I am, I can't crack it. s things."

"But all these years, I haven't waited in vain. I asked someone to find a prescription that can break the seal. If I can refine that elixir, I can regain my original strength!"

"But one of the medicinal materials is still missing."

Having said this, Haibodong narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately said:

"You are not an alchemist, and I will not ask you to refine this elixir for me. I need you to enter the Tagor Desert and bring back the medicinal materials I lack."

"And you have to find a way to help me invite a sixth-grade alchemist!"

When Xiao Ning heard this, he touched his nose first, then looked at Haibodong with a mysterious smile, and slowly said:

"This is not easy, but who told me that I need these residual pictures?"

His origin is so mysterious, and his background must be quite big. Even he can't hire a sixth-grade alchemist? !
  Haibodong's eyes were already a little dim. As for why he didn't invite Furukawa, it was naturally because he had some differences with Furukawa.

But the next moment, Xiao Ning's brisk words made Haibodong suddenly raise his head!
  "Old guy, I agree to your conditions!"

I saw Xiao Ning with a mysterious smile, staring at Haibodong and speaking casually. Haibodong could see a serious look in his dark eyes.

This guy really thinks he can accomplish this.

But even so, Haibodong still had some doubts. After the initial surprise, he realized that his request seemed a bit excessive.

Whether it is finding the Mandala of Sand or hiring a sixth-grade alchemist, it is not something that can be easily accomplished.

Sand Mandala only grows in the territory of the Snake Tribe. If you go to collect these medicinal materials, you may be encountered by the Snake Tribe. If you are not careful, you will be hunted and killed without a burial place.

And sixth-grade alchemists are even rarer. There is only one Alchemist King Furukawa in the Jiama Empire, and the rest, even the president of the Alchemist Guild, are only fifth-grade alchemists.

"Boy, you agreed so easily, do you know how difficult it is?!"

Haibodong narrowed his eyes slightly and lowered his voice.

"I have my own solution, so I won't bother you, old man. However, this matter cannot be left alone."

Xiao Ning spoke loudly, appearing quite relaxed and natural. It seemed that neither condition was too difficult for him, which made his image in Haibodong's eyes even more mysterious.

However, even if he could do it, he didn't want to work for the old guy in vain, he at least wanted to get all the benefits!
  "Looking for the Mandala of Sand and hiring a sixth-grade alchemist are two different things, so just a residual map is not enough."

"First of all, I need a clue about the strange fire," Xiao Ning raised a finger and waved it slightly in front of his eyes. Regardless of Haibodong's somewhat changed expression, he said calmly:

"I know you have it, take it out."

Hearing this, Hai Dongbo was shocked, smiled, hesitated for a long time, and then said helplessly:

"I really don't know where you got this from."

Xiao Ning did not pretend to be mysterious and explained casually:

"It's just some hearsay information. Since you have lived here for so long, as a former Dou Huang warrior, it is probably unrealistic to not have any clues."

Shaking his head, Haibodong's wrinkled old face trembled, and a bright light flashed in his cloudy eyes:
  "I am very interested in drawing maps. I once wandered around the Tagore Desert, and I was lucky enough to get some news about strange fires. I did some detection on the locations and routes in these news. Although We are still not sure exactly where the strange fire is, but we can roughly know which place has a higher probability of having the strange fire."

"But you're not an alchemist, so why are you so interested in strange fire?"

For a moment, Haibodong was a little curious.

"I won't bother you, old man. Please continue."

Xiao Ning did not answer Haibodong's question, but brought the topic back to the topic again.

Although it is not obvious on the surface, it seems that Xiao Ning is at a disadvantage, but he has actually planned it for a long time. Everything Haibodong did and all the conditions he put forward were just for the sake of a Breaking Edan. As long as he can lift his seal , so what if you can’t meet the above conditions? !

When the time comes, Xiao Ning can go to Xiao Yan and ask Yao Lao to take action again. As for the price, it will naturally be the strange fire!
  He knew very clearly in his heart that Xiao Ning was looking for traces of the strange fire not only for the Little Medical Fairy, but he also had different thoughts about it. Unlike Xiao Yan, Xiao Ning did not have the Burning Technique. The demand for alien fire is not that strong.

The reason why he needs strange fire is simply because these legendary divine objects of heaven and earth have a particularly strong effect on tempering the body.

Just imagine, there are several descriptions of different fire quenching in the original work, so how could he, Xiao Ning, just let this go? But the strange fire after tempering the body is indeed of little use to Xiao Ning. Even for the little medical fairy, there is no need to hold it all in his hands.

After the tempering is completed, Xiao Ning can take the strange fire and trade with Xiao Yan. One action will exchange for the transaction between the two parties. He is just a middleman. In this way, a win-win situation will be formed for the three parties. Wouldn't it be beautiful? ?

Haibodong hesitantly put his hand into his arms, and a thin piece of parchment appeared in his hand. There was also a conspicuous fire seal pattern engraved on it, which looked quite strange.

When Xiao Ning saw the parchment, he knew for sure that it was the parchment he gave to Xiao Yan in the original book.

"This news of strange fire"

Haibodong was still hesitating, but Xiao Ning's words interrupted his hesitation.

"In exchange for the news about the strange fire, I will go deep into the Tagor Desert and get the Sand Mandala!"

Xiao Ning concluded the first transaction. Hai Bodong twitched his lips when he heard this, but he still left it far away from Xiao Ning.

"It's done."

Accompanied by a gust of wind, the parchment shot straight towards Xiao Ning like a fallen leaf dart. Xiao Ning's face remained motionless, and he pinched it quietly with two fingers and held it in his hand.

His eyes swept over it casually. When he saw three flame symbols marked on it, Xiao Ning was determined. He quickly put it away, showed a smile, and said:

"The old gentleman is really cheerful, so let's talk about the second condition."

Haibodong waved his hand and said in a tired voice:
  "The second condition is the residual picture, right?"

Xiao Ning was not angry when Hai Bodong interrupted him, but nodded. However, the words he spoke made Hai Bodong feel frightened again.

"You're too polite, sir, but I also have some experience in studying maps."

As soon as Xiao Ning opened his mouth, Haibodong's eyes suddenly jumped, and a look of surprise appeared in the corners of his eyes.

"Did this kid see something?"

Immediately, he comforted himself a little.

"Impossible. I have been studying maps for half my life. If he can easily see the trick, then I have wasted all these years in vain. He must not have seen it!"

Haibodong made a conclusion in his mind.

"What happened to this map?"

Xiao Ning picked up the fragmented picture from in front of Haibodong and immediately said:

"It looks a little weird, the cross-section doesn't seem to be complete"

Haibodong chuckled and immediately said:

"After all, it's a residual picture, and it's normal to be incomplete. Why are you bothering with these things?"

"Boom!"

Xiao Ning casually slapped the broken picture on the table and made a sound. Then he narrowed his eyes and said casually:
  "Old sir, you are a little unreasonable."

"This residual image has traces of being cut. Although the cutter followed the texture and segmented it perfectly, there are still some clues left."

"A real residual picture cannot be like this!"

Why did Xiao Ning dare to say this? It was because he really had a broken picture in his hand, and he had read the original work, so he would have known what Hai Bodong did.

Haibodong's face changed several times like a pickled eggplant, and then he sighed deeply, his eyes full of complex expressions:
  "Young people today are really amazing. It seems that I am really old."

Having said this, he stared at Xiao Ning deeply and said:

"Boy, I also need to keep a guarantee in my hands. Otherwise, if you just take the things and run away, wouldn't I suffer a big loss in vain?"

"When you find the Sand Mandala and the sixth-grade alchemist together, I will give you the remaining part of the map. What do you think?"

Xiao Ning stretched out two fingers, tapped lightly on the counter, and said:

"Old sir, now is not the time for you to bargain with me. I want the complete incomplete picture now."

When Hai Bodong heard this, his beard stood up at the corner of his mouth, and a cold snort came from his mouth:

"Humph, you kid, you have no sincerity at all!"

When Xiao Ning saw this, he was not used to it and immediately sneered:
  "Old sir, I have shown enough sincerity by being able to make a deal with you calmly. If not, I could kill you right here and slowly search for your belongings. What do you think?"

"Senior, you used to dominate the Jia Ma Empire, but now you don't even have this courage?"

Hearing this, Haibodong was suddenly startled. After a long time, he lowered his head. After all, the situation was stronger than the other person. He said helplessly:
  "That's all, that's all, kid, you have to remember, come find me after you find something, don't break your promise."

As he finished speaking, a piece of paper smaller than the previous fragment of the picture appeared in Haibodong's hand, and then he placed it on the table.

Xiao Ning put it away and said casually:

"I never break my promise and I do what I say."

"During this period, I am going to the Snake Tribe territory. Please wait for me here for a while."

After saying that, Xiao Ning turned around, crushed the ice shards, and walked towards the door of "Gu Tu", leaving Hai Bodong with a complicated face behind.

"Xiao Ning, is the matter finished?"

Seeing Xiao Ning walking out, the little medical fairy suddenly looked at him, walked quickly to him, and immediately frowned. Xiao Ning looked at it and found a mark of rupture on his clothes.

Xiao Ning casually covered that place with his arm, spread out his other hand, and said helplessly:
  "Nothing, just a little discussion, but I have good news for you!"

The little medical fairy was immediately attracted by Xiao Ning's pretense of mystery.

"What good news?!"

Xiao Ning smiled and said:

"News about the strange fire!"
